It is one thing to share the pressure when selling shares, but how to allocate it is very particular.
Xiao Qi is not short of money. Although he and Sun Zhenyi will spend 12 billion U.S. dollars on their strategy in Japan, Tang Mingxiang will also need 10 billion U.S. dollars to develop pornographic girls, and Skype and Yahoo will also need 20 billion U.S. dollars. But with Dreampad and
The sales volume of Dreamstars continues to increase, and with the continuous harvest of subordinated debt, plus a total of 18 billion US dollars provided by Citibank, the cash flow in his hands has exceeded 56 billion US dollars.
Although the U.S. dollar has been severely impacted in recent days and has depreciated by more than 10% against the RMB, Xiao Qi still has no intention of converting all U.S. dollars into RMB.
The reason is simple.
No matter how much the U.S. dollar depreciates, it is still the most convenient settlement currency in the world. It is very convenient to pay for anything in U.S. dollars.
On the contrary, the RMB, which is slowly appreciating, cannot be used. Usually, it can only be converted into US dollars and then traded with others.
This is also an important reason why the pound, the euro, and the renminbi all want to become international trade settlement currencies!
No matter how much pressure the United States exerts, no one is willing to give up.
Compared with industry, the financial industry is definitely a huge profit.
But compared to printing money, the financial industry is nothing.
[Long_wind
The United States has always occupied the most advantageous financial position by relying on the powerful tool of US dollar settlement, and it can suppress anyone it wants.
Of course, Xiao Qi is not a fool. He exchanged 36 billion US dollars through Fairy Bank as his bank capital in Hong Kong and the Mainland.
Under normal circumstances, this money cannot be moved, and there is still a necessary capital flow reserve.
After all, what Xiao Qi is doing is not an ordinary deposit and loan business. What is bigger by far is the third-party custody business of funds. You can't just go in with an empty shell, that will make those old men tremble.
Even with only half of the US$20 billion left on hand, Xiao Qi is not afraid that he will have no money to use.
The dreampads and dreamstars sold once a month are Xiao Qi's cash cows. In addition, the income from subordinated debt and the future harvest from gold futures are a large amount of funds, enough for Xiao Qi to make many acquisitions.
Therefore, when Xiao Qi sold 30% of Dreamstars shares, he did not value money, nor did he sell it because he was short of money.
Since it is the same as selling Dreampad shares, it is to win over powerful people, then the group of rich people in Hong Kong and Taiwan can be completely excluded.
Although the wealthy people in Hong Kong and Taiwan still have some influence on the mainland, except for the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places, their influence is not very effective in Southeast Asia, let alone Europe and the United States.
Friendship is friendship, but Xiao Qi will not use Fairy Company's century-old plan as a favor, so Li Chaoren and the others are destined to be disappointed.
Despite the commotion outside and everyone gearing up, in fact Xiao Qi already knew who he would sell to.
The partners Xiao Qi initially selected were companies and giants with some friendships and widespread influence in the world.
Citibank is already one, Green Pine Capital is one, Blackstone Group must be one, Bayeux Ventures is also very powerful in Europe, so it is one, Credit Suisse First Boston is one. Mr. Buffett is old and strong, so he must also be
Count one.
LVMH's Berard, Virgin's Branson, Oracle's Richardson, and Samsung's Lee Kun-hee, these four people will definitely take shares.
Since Citibank valued Dreamstars at US$300 billion, anyone who came to talk to Xiao Qi about buying it could not go below this price. This was twice as high as the US$130 billion valuation when Dreampad shares were sold.
many.
Therefore, basically these people buy between 1% and 3%. In addition to Blackstone Group, which has a strong intention to acquire 5%, even Mr. Buffett only wants 3%.
After a period of intense phone negotiations, the share purchase list for Dreamstars was initially finalized.
Citibank and Blackstone Group each have 5%, Green Pine Capital, Bayeux Ventures, Credit Suisse First Boston and Buffett each have 3%, lvmh's Berard, Oracle's Richardson and Samsung's Li Kunxi each have 2%, Virgin's Bu
Lanson 1%.
Xiao Qi originally planned to leave the last 1% to Amazon's Bezos, but I don't know if it was because Bayeux Ventures forced him to sell the shares of Chord Girl, but this time Bezos didn't even call.
To Xiao Qi.
It is said that it was because of seeing the strong strength of Bayeux Venture Capital that Xiao Qi left them a 3% share. Otherwise, based on the economic development of Europe in the next few years, Xiao Qi really didn't want to pay much attention to them.
Since Bezos didn't want it, the remaining 1% of Dreamstars shares were sold by Xiao Qi to Tong Wencong, but this guy was the only one who didn't give cash. He invested the money as soon as he received it from the subordinated bonds.
Gold futures, so now I can only owe it.
Tong Wencong didn't expect Xiao Qi to sell him the shares of Dreamstars. Faced with this big pie falling from the sky, Tong Wencong was so happy that he didn't know what to say.
Speaking of which, Tong Wencong made a lot of money for Xiao Qi and also acted as a shield. It was with him supporting him that Xiao Qi's reputation could be so good. Otherwise, others would know that Xiao Qi had gone from being a notorious person to someone else.
Having already made tens of billions of dollars in subprime debt, and starting to make huge profits from gold futures, I always feel that Xiao Qi is a little greedy.
Based on Tong Wencong's contribution to attracting firepower from the front, Xiao Qi should also give him a reward.
As the saying goes, those who don't pay will not gain anything. You must be generous enough to make others work harder for you.
In this information-based society, many things cannot be hidden from others, not to mention the companies and wealthy people who bought Dreamstars are not willing to hide it at all. How could you miss such a good opportunity to promote your company and yourself?
Even many companies are in a deadlock, such as Bayeux Venture Capital, Green Pine Capital and Blackstone Group. They rely on investors' investments to raise money for business. Once investors redeem their investments, they have to pay all
Pujie.
In particular, the funds of these venture capital companies come more from the rich. Once a few or more than a dozen people propose to withdraw their capital and redeem them, the situation will become very serious!
Now in this tense financial situation, they have already suffered considerable losses, so they are very cautious about various redemption events.
With the shares of Dreamstars in hand, they can say: "Look, Xiao Qi trusted us and sold us the shares of Dreamstars. What are you worried about? We are so powerful and well-connected. Not only should you not
After redemption, you should continue to invest!”
All right.
In fact, these investment fund companies are no different from Citibank. They don't use their own money to make money, so they are so nervous.
So, with the help of people like them, newspapers and magazines quickly published the same list of lucky people as Citibank, and even Tong Wencong was listed.
Although Tong Wencong is a fund manager, he helped Xiao Qi acquire imax, so he is an identity that can be used to show off. It will not remind people that he has cooperated with Xiao Qi in subprime debt and gold futures.
All in all, this group of people and this group of companies are completely popular. They are everywhere in the news, newspapers and magazines all day long, just like Citibank a few days ago.
In fact, there is no other way for the European and American media to report them so enthusiastically and praise them.
Ever since the Lehman Brothers scandal broke out and collapsed, the huge financial crisis has begun. In the past few days, whether it is the U.S. stock market, the European stock market, or the Asian stock market, there has been a continuous diving competition. Who is competing with who?
The fall is even worse!
Now that they finally have some exciting news, they are definitely going to brag a lot. I hope people will not panic about the shocks in the financial and stock markets and gradually return to their senses!
Unfortunately, although these media have good intentions, things are not as good as they imagined.
Because the European and American economies have been so falsely prosperous in recent years, and only the Asian market has had a slightly better time in the world, they have relied entirely on these various financial products to barely maintain a decent life.
Once the huge bubble of subprime debt is burst, they will have to pay for everything they have eaten over the years.
The price is that their assets shrink rapidly and the financial order is greatly damaged.
In just the first week of the financial crisis, 12 banks in Europe and the United States closed down, 78 funds announced net losses, and the total evaporation of funds in the global stock market exceeded 890 billion U.S. dollars. It is really shocking!
Therefore, even if these companies that have obtained Dreamstars shares have temporarily escaped the violent storm, the overall economic situation will not change because of them.
Not to mention one fairy company, even ten or a hundred fairy companies with good news will not help.
What's more, Xiao Qi has never planned to worry about European and American companies.
On the contrary, the young man is still gearing up and excited.
The opportunity to acquire the good company and stocks of your dreams has finally arrived!
A feast of your own has finally arrived!! (To be continued...)
