American Fortune Life

In the afternoon, the raging snowstorm stopped for a while. On the helicopter, Andy rested his head on the window glass. Looking down from the air, the snow-covered New York City landscape was majestic. The sky blue, at first glance, is breathtakingly beautiful.

However, the sudden ice storm brought huge disasters to the entire New York City and even several states near New York State. The subsequent impact of this snow disaster and freezing will not be eliminated for a while.

The apron on the roof of the annex building of the General Electric Building at 30 Rockefeller Plaza, where the NBC Universal Group headquarters is located, has been cleaned. With the whirlwind blown by the helicopter propeller, all the surrounding snow was blown up, so that those who were waiting not far away A group of people couldn't help squinting their eyes slightly, turning their sides slightly to resist the cold wind and the white snow and sand in the sky.

Andy, who was wearing a dark blue straight cashmere coat, got off the helicopter whose propellers had stopped spinning. When he saw a group of tightly packed people with red faces coming up quickly, Andy couldn't help but smile slightly.

In addition to his own think tank, there are also bank representatives who participated in financing him, as well as General Electric, the former management of NBC Universal, and of course, Amanda Hess, who is wearing a black irregular fur trench coat and a pair of leather gloves special.

It seems that no matter which one of these people present can't wait to see me!

Also, the transaction amount reached 17 billion U.S. dollars, and the entire acquisition fund of NBCUniversal even reached 21 billion U.S. dollars. Under the background of the global financial turmoil, it is undoubtedly a transaction that has attracted the attention of the world.

With a smile on his face, Andy calmly walked forward to shake hands with everyone. After all, the location is not a good place for communication, and no one wants to stay too long in the cold wind on the roof.

The warm and quiet meeting room, as the two doors were pushed open by the staff, and a group led by Andy and Geceo Jeff Immelt stepped in, it immediately became lively and noisy.

The two parties sat opposite each other, and Andy was surrounded by the think tank negotiators led by Alvetrie, whether it was Amanda Hearst, who had never had a chance to talk to Andy, or the few people who participated in the acquisition of financing and securities lending. Representatives of all the banks sat behind Andy and the others, waiting for the deal to be concluded with different expressions.

In this meeting, there is actually nothing extra to talk about. As long as the final transaction contract is signed and the funds are handed over, the General Electric party headed by Jeff Immelt will all leave, and Andy Smith will officially own This 70-story building houses the NBA Universal Group, the NBA Television Network and Universal Pictures in Hollywood. In one fell swoop, he became the youngest entertainment media giant in the United States.

Looking at Andy's calm and calm smile on the opposite side, General Electric CEO Jeff Immelt also had a smile on his face, but he sighed again and again in his heart. Shares are also a helpless broken arm.

At this moment, under the heavy blow of the stock market plummet, General Electric has faced the most severe challenge in the past 130 years since its founding. Even through a large number of repurchases, the good news that NBC Universal will be acquired, and the stock price of General Electric getting rid of the nightmare of "penny stock" and rebounding, it is still not enough to buy a light bulb of its own brand.

The market value has evaporated by 300 billion, and investors in the financial market have compared it to a "leprosy patient", making everyone afraid to approach it. With capital markets unwilling to lend a helping hand, GE must find funding as soon as possible.

Papa——

"Congratulations, Mr. Smith, your wish has come true." Jeff Immelt and Andy exchanged contracts, and after confirming that the funds had arrived, he smiled and shook hands with Andy, congratulating him.

"Thank you, and congratulations to you, this is a win-win situation!" He was a little excited, but there was no excitement on his face, and Andy, who still kept a calm smile, listened to the warm applause in the conference room and the representatives of the banks behind him. happy commentary, to Jeff Immelt's.

"Hehe, maybe." Jeff Immelt smiled very reluctantly, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared, and said a little coldly: "Since the transaction is over, we will not bother you, we will leave first Yes, please stay."

Andy smiled slightly, the corners of his mouth turned up, and the eyes in his eyes became unusually sharp, looking thoughtfully at the back of Jeff Immelt, who led everyone away without delay.

In the conference room at this moment, the groups of people on the left and right looked at Andy Smith who stood there pondering for more than ten seconds, not knowing what to do.

"The outsiders have left, we should get down to business!" Amanda Hearst walked up to Andy without hesitation, and reminded him softly, interrupting Andy's thoughts.

"Hehe, I'm sorry everyone, I was a little distracted and almost forgot the business." Andy glanced at Amanda, nodded with a smile, and then said with a smile, and looked around for a week. Everyone left in the conference room He scanned his face one by one, and he, who had already read the information, quickly relied on his photo memory to check the numbers one by one.

"Okay, those who stay here are all our own people, so sit down wherever you want."

Andy walked to the first seat of the conference table with a smile, said in a relaxed tone, patted the back of the first boss chair with his right hand with a smile, and raised his left hand as a gesture.

When the big boss spoke, everyone naturally wouldn't just stand there. Of course, they weren't foolish enough to really think they could sit casually, and it was very clear. The people brought by Andy sat on the left hand side of the conference table, and only CEO Jeff Zhu The executives of NBCUniversal headed by Ke sat on the right side with solemn faces and a very disturbed mood.

After everyone was seated, Andy, who was sitting in the first seat, was really excited at the moment. At this moment, he felt that his foundation was stable, and he had a career foundation that would allow him to be invincible.

No matter how powerful the capital market is, making big profits, Andy has never regarded the financial market as his main business that can be managed and struggled. In his eyes, the financial market is just a castle in the sky, vain and rootless. No matter how many numbers there are, it is possible to clear them all at once and become a passing cloud.

Only real industrial assets are what Andy pursues from the beginning to the end, and it is the proof that he can feel the real wealth, which makes him achieve the achievements of pride and ambition, and the crazy accumulation of wealth in the early stage is for this moment.

"call--"

Andy secretly took a deep breath, suppressing the surge in his heart at the moment, looked around again with extremely bright eyes, smiled on his handsome face, and said: "Here, first of all, I would like to thank my allies—"

"Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Citibank..."

Whenever Andy opens his mouth to call his name and stretches out his hand to signal, the corresponding person will smile happily and nod slightly under the collective attention of the crowd. The banks are settled. At this moment, these banks can become members of the board of directors before nbc universal has not paid off all its debts.

Unfortunately, they met Andy Smith, who has a very volatile control. In Andy's words, I can share the benefits with everyone, but no one wants to interfere with the power!

At this moment, nbc universal has become Andy's private group. How could he cause trouble for himself and let these banks make things difficult for him? With his very strong insistence, the banks that want to make money can't beat Andy in the end. I chose to compromise. Of course, there is still a supervisory committee, otherwise, this group of banks may not be able to sleep.

"Okay, I'm done thanking you. Then, let's go straight to the topic, the personnel changes related to nbc universal group..."

As Andy's clear voice sounded, all executives, including nbc universal group CEO Jeff Zucker, couldn't help but straighten their faces, their bodies tensed up, and their eyes looked at the young new boss with a little hesitation. , waiting for the verdict of fate.
