Chapter 1526 Cooperation and Caution

International stock prices have been fluctuating in recent days.

The cause is naturally because the smartphones suddenly came out, and the stock prices of several major mobile phone giants plummeted.

However, according to normal rules, although the stock prices of traditional mobile phone companies plummeted, the interview of smartphones can stimulate the surge of technology stocks.

But this time it did not follow the normal rules. Yang Dongxu, who knew the impact of smartphones on traditional mobile phones, not only scrambled for land in the smartphone market and first established the world's first smartphone.

He also gathered the funds in his hands and joined other partners to "make waves" in the US stock market, such as three days before the smartphone came out.

A large amount of funds poured into the US stock market to frantically short the giants of traditional mobile phone companies, as well as those companies in the industrial chain related to traditional mobile phone companies that were destined to be eliminated after the smartphones came out.

Such shorting was like a fuse, when the smartphones were launched and brought heavy damage to these traditional mobile phone manufacturers.

Other capital was like a shark that smelled blood. Although the cake had been made a fortune by Yang Dongxu and others who took the initiative. But the remaining cake is still delicious.

Therefore, in the past few days, compared with the increasingly hot smartphone market, the US stock market can be said to be a bloody storm.

The stock prices of some companies have skyrocketed like a rocket, while the valuations of some companies have been underestimated and are about to face bankruptcy and delisting.

And some capital does not seem to be satisfied with eating some leftovers from traditional mobile phone manufacturers. In order to pursue profits, they began to expand their attack surface, making the US stock market more lively for a while.

Because of the turmoil in the US stock market, global stock markets also began to show waves, which is quite similar to the previous financial crisis.

This has caused many national politicians to come out to warn, and the central bank of the country has also quickly mobilized funds to prepare for a rainy day.

However, when other capitals poured in and were looking for a breakthrough to make a fortune, Yang Dongxu and the capital he cooperated with behind the scenes quietly withdrew from the stock market.

If you have already made a lot of money, don't be greedy and want to rob the last penny in the target's pocket. Doing so will not only increase the chance of their exposure, but also leave a bad reputation.

And when you rob someone's last penny in their pocket, it's better to meet a submissive target. What if the other party gives you a bloody rage?

So it is better to stop while you are ahead, after all, the benefits gained this time are enough to satisfy all parties.

On a wasteland in the western United States, this place was once the hometown of cowboys, because there used to be gold mines here, so it was like a piece of rotten meat, attracting adventurers from all over the world.

But now all the valuable things have been divided up, and it has become relatively peaceful. The land that was originally ravaged by war has become a farm.

Under the huge birch tree is a parasol, and under the parasol, Little Jack is casting a fishhook at the big lake in front of him.

Compared with other rich people who like to play big golf or watch the first sport in the United States, football. Little Jack likes to fish quietly. There is also a parasol next to him, and Abel is sitting under it.

"He doesn't seem to be very confident about us." Abel said.

"We can't trust him completely, right? If it weren't for our common interests, we would be natural opponents.

After all, that country is too mysterious, so as a member of that country, we have to be on guard." Little Jack stared at the float of the fishhook on the lake.

"What do you think of his new proposal?" Abel asked.

So Yang Dongxu's new proposal is to let Little Jack and Abel, or the consortium behind them, help with the photolithography machine.

Yang Dongxu had talked about this matter with Abel and Little Jack before. The two families were backed by weak consortiums, and they had to survive before, so many things couldn't be done too much.

In the end, they only helped Yang Dongxu solve the problem that Dongxu Technology's electronic products were targeted by the US Department of Commerce. They really couldn't do anything about the photolithography machine.

And this time, with the addition of the British royal family and several bigwigs on Wall Street who were just one step away from becoming a consortium, this matter is undoubtedly promising.

"If the British royal family takes the lead, there will be much less resistance. We have even received the kickbacks. Why do you have to come here to ask in person?" Little Jack turned his head and glanced at Abel.

The so-called kickbacks are naturally taking advantage of the impact of smartphones on the traditional mobile phone industry to make a fortune in the stock market.

Although Yang Dongxu did not hand over the smartphones to the two consortiums for operation, nor did he give Twitter and Facebook to Google, he once again gave the two families a price for their industries on the Internet.

But this time, when they went to the stock market to make money, they brought two people with them. Therefore, both parties made a lot of money.

Of course, they made money. As for smartphones, Yang Dongxu did not take them to play, but started a new business. Whether it was a precaution or a warning to them for their poor performance, it depends on the perspective of both parties to view this issue.

"Then let's wait until the royal family handles this matter. I didn't expect that they couldn't help but take action after keeping a low profile for so many years."

"There is an opportunity to expand your influence, and it is business influence, not an uncontrollable war. Who can resist it? You didn't come here just to chat with me this time, right?" Little Jack continued to ask.

"Someone recently drafted a draft on armament renewal. Mr. Kennedy wants you to vote against it." Abel stated his purpose of coming in person.

Little Jack frowned and pondered for a moment, "This problem is not that big. Google can't cover it up now, so everyone knows that our two companies jointly hold shares in Google. Those old men in the consortium are very happy in this matter. Cooperate.

But has your problem been solved? Compared with the trouble caused by the suppression on my side, the trouble on your side seems to be more serious. The chain reaction caused by blocking this arms draft is not small. "

"Mr. Kennedy is still the chairman of the consortium." Abel said.

Compared with the California consortium, although it was severely suppressed by the old and powerful consortiums in the east, it was still united internally. It was just that some old guys shamelessly found a few young people to take the blame in order to keep their positions.

The situation of the Boston consortium behind the Kennedy family is much worse. In recent years, the Kennedy family has only suffered from the continuous deaths of descendants, which is also related to the internal struggles of the consortium.

After all, it was already in danger of being jointly suppressed by other consortiums, and could only lick its wounds on its own territory.

As a result, there is still a faint internal split. How can it be possible to do a comprehensive defense? Maybe someone within the consortium has rebelled.

And as Google began to expand rapidly, although everyone in the California consortium was very envious of Google, some old families even forced Little Jack to hand over Google shares.

But the current conflicts can still be controlled internally. After all, this is the breakthrough point for whether the consortium can break through the suppression of other powerful consortiums.

Only consortiums that succeed in breaking through can have a better future, so the other party is restrained in such arguments.

And it’s not like Little Jack doesn’t have elders who hold important positions in the group. Therefore, the current situation of the California consortium is that Jack has become the first successor in an absolute sense, and the profits from the Google shares in his hands are divided into part and everyone in the consortium has a mouthful of soup. The basic situation is relatively stable.

On the other hand, the situation on the Kennedy family's side is not so wonderful.

You must know that in order to make Kennedy the president, the entire Boston consortium spent a lot of money. As a result, President Kennedy was shot, and all efforts were in vain, leaving the entire Boston consortium in ruins.

Although the Kennedy family is also an absolute victim here, I would never believe it if the other families didn't complain.

In addition, the Boston Consortium has been deteriorating year by year in recent days. Several families that make up the consortium have been fighting over some interests, and there are already signs of division within the entire consortium.

So this time the Kennedy family actually holds shares in Google, a company with a bright future that can even be used as a legacy industry.

Other members of the consortium are naturally not calm. After all, the resources invested by the Kennedy family to acquire Google shares appear to belong to the Kennedy family. In fact, everyone is a member of the consortium. How can you be involved in the consortium when you use resources? All aspects.

Therefore, other families want the Kennedy family to hand over their Google shares, even if they don't hand over all of them, at least divide it equally and let other families hold part of it, so that everyone can eat together. Instead of the Kennedys eating meat they drank soup.

After all, the Kennedy family uses the resources of the consortium to invest in Google, and at the same time prevents other consortiums from suppressing and blocking Google. They use the resources of the consortium. As a member of the consortium, it is understandable that they receive a share of the stock.

How could the Kennedy family be willing to such a request? Now is the time to gather all the strength to prepare for a breakout. To spread the strength in their hands is simply to seek death.

What's more, there have been all kinds of turmoil within the consortium over the years. Who knows how many members of the consortium are internal agents of the enemy. If Google's shares are divided equally, isn't this a clear sign of funding the enemy?

Therefore, the elder Kennedy held on to Google's shares under pressure and refused to let go, which made the internal conflicts within the entire consortium more intense.

This time, although he followed Yang Dongxu to make a killing in the stock market, and old Kennedy distributed some money. But this is obviously just a temporary reprieve from the pressure brought by the conflicts, and the acute conflicts are far from being resolved.

"It's best for you to resolve the trouble as soon as possible. This time he chose to unite the royal family and Wall Street. In addition to wanting to play a balancing act, he also has concerns about our capabilities."

With the current situation of the consortium behind Little Jack and Kennedy, the California consortium is still united and can add an extra burden, but Kennedy's endurance has reached its peak.

If the burden is placed on the Kennedy family, either the old Kennedy will go all out and gain absolute control of the consortium in one fell swoop, or he will be done with it.

And it is more likely that the game will be over. After all, in addition to internal conflicts, other consortiums that are eyeing the old Kennedy family cannot watch the rise of this family.

Therefore, Yang Dongxu obviously did not want to use his own interests to let the Kennedy family compete, so he chose to start a new business.
