1932 Burning Money
"Talk to Lynch?"
Someone suggested, "Isn't the result of the last meeting with him pretty good?"
"Maybe we can reach an agreement this time too!"
Frank shook his head irritably, "They must be starting to take action. What we can see is 500 million in cash. What about the invisible ones?"
"Do you think that once these people and this money start moving, we can stop it with just a few words?"
"Benefit!"
"If you want them to stop, you have to offer benefits!"
"How much profit do you plan to cede? If it's enough for them, I'll go talk to Lynch!"
Although Frank has always followed the political line, he understands the nature of this society better than many capitalists!
To put it bluntly, interests are the core motivation!
If Lynch and the others make 500 million, you have to let them earn at least 500 million.
Those hidden funds, even if they are only 500 million, there is not much demand for this part of funds.
Then no matter what, we have to come up with a profit of 500 million!
Who will get these 500 million? That is a question.
Major shareholders definitely don’t want to become small shareholders all of a sudden. Small shareholders will be almost invisible if they are cut with a knife. Who would be willing and who can agree?
His words immediately silenced everyone in the conference room, and everyone seemed not very optimistic.
Some looked at the most senior members of the board with dissatisfaction in their eyes.
In the final analysis, everything stems from the dissatisfaction of the top executives of the group headed by the Jerry family and the Dais family with the presidential palace.
They were dissatisfied with various policies of the Presidential Palace, which is why the current ending happened!
In fact, they didn't know that tax rates increased after the war broke out.
Companies need to pay more taxes, but their operating conditions are much worse than before.
People's life pressure has also increased a lot, which has led those families who use electrical appliances unscrupulously to start saving.
This kind of saving may seem inconspicuous, for example, some always-on lighting can be turned on only when in use.
Just some such inconspicuous savings have caused the group company's revenue to begin to decrease.
While the debt ratio of group companies increased, the Presidential Palace promulgated a series of new regulations on the "healthy" operation of enterprises.
This is the real contradiction, not simply that they want to cause trouble for the Presidential Palace.
But now, no matter how you say it, it makes no sense.
"Now we can only hope that people from other consortiums can help us."
Frank took a deep breath and regained his composure, "Their purpose of doing this is nothing more than competition and acquisition."
"We are not afraid of them in competition!"
"As long as our grid meets the standards, with the customer base we have now, they are not afraid of competition at all!"
Everyone agrees with this. After all, it has been so many years. As long as there is no power outage, who would think about changing to another power grid?
Moreover, many communities that have completed construction will definitely have to start construction again if they want to connect to the new power grid, which is also a trouble.
So if it is just competition, they are not afraid, but can use this method to drag down those foreign investors.
When they find that they can't take advantage of Jerry & Dais Group, they will acquire their company in turn, which will allow the company to further expand!
The only thing that makes people feel uneasy now is the other party's possible acquisition!
But whether it is a contract acquisition or a forced acquisition, in the final analysis, everyone is fighting for money.
The market value of Jerry & Dess Group is about 2 billion, which does not mean that it really has 2 billion, nor does it mean that it can really produce 2 billion.
As various policies regarding corporate operating standards come into effect, every company has to retain a certain amount of liquidity.
According to the current rules and regulations, this part of the funds is calculated through corporate liabilities, security funds provided by the company to employees, etc., and is approximately 350 million.
This money seems like a lot of money, and it is true for ordinary people, but it may not be enough for the battle that follows!
They need at least twice as much capital to be able to maintain the company's independence relatively intact.
Therefore, uniting all that can be united and finding a bank loan have become top priorities.
Frank quickly assigned the next work, and he contacted other consortiums to see if he could get some substantial assistance.
Others are contacting banks to see if they can use company equity as collateral to temporarily borrow some funds to tide over the crisis.
As long as he has enough money, Frank is very confident that he can survive this difficulty!
On the other hand, when Skynet Service Company was established, some interested people also found out Lin Qi's identity as the founder and shareholder through telephone inquiries.
This also got a lot of people excited!
Lynch has never lost, and every time people think he will lose this time, but he always wins.
This time, a financial war began to break out between Lynch and the Jerry & Deis Group, and the federal government was clearly on Lynch's side.
So there is no doubt that the fate of Jerry & Dess Group is already foreseeable!
The god of war (Lynch) is on the opposite side, the referee (Financial Supervisory Commission) is also on the opposite side, and the one who makes the rules (the Presidential Palace) is also on the opposite side. How can we fight?
Capital and capitalists are not interested in the grudges between the two, but they are very interested in dismembering the Jerry & Dais Group.
Capital has never been emotionless. What capital pursues is ultimate profit. As long as there is profit, they can do anything!
Compared with annexing and acquiring some small companies, it is obvious that large group companies like Jerry & Dess are more worthy of taking action!
The changes in the financial market are like observing the world through a heavy rainstorm. Until the sky clears, no one knows what it is like further away.
Many people are calling Lynch. They are very interested in Lynch's next plan, and some people are also willing to provide loan services if Lynch needs funds.
What was somewhat surprising was that Severella not only called Lynch, but also came over specifically.
When the two sat in the office again, Severella looked at Lynch with a feeling she couldn't explain.
A little ridiculous, a little funny, a little emotional, and a little regretful.
"I heard what was going on, between you and them."
Lynch nodded but said nothing. She continued, "I have some money in my hand. Maybe you can take it with me?"
Severella has done a lot in the past few years.
She did not have enough understanding of other industries and did not dare to venture into them rashly. She only continued to work in the fields she was most familiar with.
A series of market trend brands have been created with the "Dream Girl" as the core. She herself is a "princess" known to everyone in the Federation.
Even now, people still regard her as "Her Royal Highness."
Severella uses her popularity and influence to continue to increase investment in this area, and a fashion empire surrounding her is rising.
Lynch's relationship with the Little Earl also introduced some nobles to Severella, which also added the aristocratic style that the Federation people loved most to her fashion elements.
In general, the value of all her assets now combined has exceeded 100 million. She has also been used as a model and is called the "female version of Lynch".
Of course, she is a woman after all, so people allow her achievements to be "slightly" lower.
This is enough to show her excellence.
Some evaluation agencies believe that if its development is not restricted and it can continue to maintain its current momentum, its market value may double within three years!
Lynch will pay more attention to Severella. After all, it was just a little bit different before, and the two people could have some special relationship.
He will also pay more attention to Severella because of this.
Seeing her again at this time, Lin Qi was still as familiar as before, "No problem, how much liquidity do you have?"
Severella also did his homework, "Fifteen million, give it your all!"
There are still several million in this that are actually aided by Mr. Wardrick. Now Ancock Industries can be regarded as the leading heavy industry company.
Mr. Wardrick's shriveled wallet has also been replenished, and he can still spend millions to support his daughter.
It's just that he didn't feel comfortable talking to Lynch about this matter. After all, he had somewhat interfered with some of the things between Lynch and Severella at that time.
Lynch nodded, "That's enough..." He wrote an account and handed it over, "Put the money in, and when the money is divided, I will send it to you with interest."
Severella lowered her head and glanced at the card in her hand. After keeping it properly, she made another request, "I hope to study."
She changed her sitting position and said, "You know, all the industries in my hands now are real industries, and I don't know much about financial operations."
"You are the best in this field, and we are also..." She rolled her wrist, "I may also be involved in these in the future, how about it?"
Lin Qi thought for a moment and agreed. This was nothing.
From small to large, or in a financial war within a limited financial scope, the means and processes must be kept secret.
Because funds are limited, every penny must be spent through some means.
Just like in a poker game, the party with less money has to mislead others' judgment in various ways, so as to obtain thrilling victories with small gains and big gains.
But when the money reaches a certain level, intrigues and tricks no longer matter!
I have one hundred million and you have one million. I consume one dollar of yours by losing ninety-nine dollars.
Hurting others at first sight, but in the end you are gone and I am still there!
As long as I am still here, I can eventually get back whatever I lose. This is hurting others with your own merits!
Neither commercial espionage nor information leakage can change the outcome of this war.
There's no conspiracy involved, it's just fucking money!
Use countless money, the general trend, and capital's greed for profits to smash them down alive and kill them!
Lynch's nod made Severella narrow her eyes with a smile. Lynch's looming face behind the dusty light was just like the first time they met!
