Chicago 1990

Chapter 1440: Rumbling

On December 2, 2001, the Mi Army pursued the death and pursued the North, and had begun to attack the enemy’s last city, Kandahar. At the same time, Enron officially filed for bankruptcy protection in the bankruptcy court. The assets listed in the bankruptcy list were as high as 490 Eight hundred million dollars has become the largest bankruptcy case in the history of the United States. On November 30, the stock price of Enron before the suspension of trading had fallen to 26 meters, and the market value was only 200 million. Billion market value...

   "The George Dynasty's decisive handling this time is not bad, and the doubts about the domestic security situation have begun to disappear. Last month, Harry Potter's hot show in the Western world has restored the confidence of the film industry..."

The elected but not yet inaugurated Shinco New York Mayor Bloomberg hosted the top dinner on Wall Street. Song Ya was also present. He was talking to Samuel of PricewaterhouseCoopers, his partner for many years. Out of such a big basket."

   "Yes, capital's confidence in us has dropped to a trough."

Arthur Andersen, who dared to be absent from the congressional hearing, recently tried to dump the pot to its Houston branch senior partner David Duncan alone, but that couldn’t convince the public. Although the partnership system does make the accounting firm more like a loose alliance. , But Arthur Andersen is not only responsible for Enron’s internal and external audits, but also its consulting business. According to Enron’s false accounts that were so rampant to “bad acting”, such as throwing huge debts to the so-called client company named after the comic hero. , Arthur Andersen Chicago headquarters cannot be so white lotus.

Investors sued, and the U.S. Securities Commission and various relevant departments have also launched investigations into Enron and Arthur Andersen. The latest data is that Anran company has recruited hundreds of employees with Arthur Andersen work experience, including chief accountants and financial institutions. Director and other important positions, even if the top five gold-plated qualifications have always been a springboard to gold-collar positions, this number is too exaggerated.

   Arthur Andersen and Enron were embarrassed to kill countless investors for treacherous pitfalls. They also caused the credibility of the other four major accounting firms and multinational companies to fall to the bottom. Investors also had a crisis of trust in the accounting, consulting industry, and the U.S. securities industry.

   Although multinational giants such as Vivendi Global and WorldCom, which have in-depth cooperation with Arthur Andersen, have been placed under a magnifying glass for inspection, are the other four really so clean? The U.S. stock market has fallen for more than a year. Which company does not have a bunch of customers who have suffered a rapid decline in market value during the stock market crash, suspected of illegal cashing out, and financial fraud?

   Samuel nodded: "We need to be decisive and immediately rebuild trust. The disaster cannot spread, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

The accounting industry has always been shaped as a neutral and upright institution. It is a supervisor, a gatekeeper, and an economic policeman. If the industry collapses, the company’s market value will have no credibility. The entire modern corporate system based on securities trading will be Facing a deep crisis.

In fact, Song Ya didn’t want to appear in the same frame as Samuel, who is in charge of most of the company’s business at this point. Sloan opposed it. Believing such a big thing, she said that it is not a good idea to rush to see the chairman of the US division of PricewaterhouseCoopers at this point, and it will make current turbulent investors have bad associations.

But Samuel insisted on the invitation, seeking support for the PwC CEO, who was vacated by his competition next year. Under the partnership system, owning a number of companies such as 3DFX and Littman Media is the biggest one for Samuel. One of the clients, who can show and stabilize himself in the current sensitive moment, will be the capital and backing for him to compete for higher positions within the company.

Song Ya agreed after consideration. He and Samuel have always cooperated happily. Samuel is right. After the Enron Andersen Thunderstorm, if the problem of false accounts spreads to the other four major players, not only the U.S., but the entire capital world. Faced with a deeper crisis, the securities market is already very difficult, so governments of all countries will not sit back and PwC should not be too dangerous.

   "On the 12th, the House of Representatives Financial Services Committee will once again summon the top executives of Enron and Arthur Andersen to participate in the hearing, and Arthur Andersen will not go again this time, right?" Song Ya asked.

   "Should, now it is unrealistic to want the Houston branch to shoulder all the responsibilities." Samuel replied.

   "Do you know their French branch?" Song Yanian never forgets Vivendi Universal.

   "The boss over there is Aldo Padoso, who is also a senior partner in charge of Vivendi's global business. Others..."

   Ten years of cooperation, Samuel knows that this young client who has seen his own'seeing the big since childhood' has the character of revenge and revenge from morning till night, what he wants to do at a glance, "What do you want to know?"

   "Just...you know, hehe." Song Ya scratched his head and smiled.

   "OK, I will send the information to your mailbox later." Now that I have to ask for help, Andersen is sure to be unlucky again. As usual, Samuel will never do this kind of dismantling the same channel.

   "Don't, just give paper copies."

"Ok."

   "Thank you."

   "Little things..."

   The two huddled together, and other guests at the dinner looked at this side from time to time. The whole Wall Street is now afraid of the Enron incident causing a series of thunderstorms. People are in panic. Everyone is trying their best to observe even the slightest disturbance.

   "It looks like they are both in a good mood?" a fund manager asked a friend next to him.

   "Well, Samuel is expected to succeed the original CEO next year and become the boss of PricewaterhouseCoopers. He served APLUS when he was a senior partner in the Chicago branch."

   "That was nearly ten years ago, right?" The fund manager recalled and whispered: "APLUS was only a teenager?"

"Well, do you remember that he sold Barn's more than 100 million dollars to Dow? I remember that Barn's audit consulting business was Yongdao before it merged with PricewaterhouseCoopers. Without Samuel's escort, APLUS absolutely He will not grow up to be the black pharaoh of today."

   "Hehe, Black Pharaoh... Lucky boy, he didn't choose Arthur Andersen whose headquarters is in Chicago."

   "It is said that Andersen's quotation was a little higher than that of Yongdao at that time, so..."

   "Rumor, hehe..."

The fund manager looked at Song Ya with envy and jealousy, "Seriously, this kid has a hand in creating gods for himself. I heard from friends in Hollywood that his A+ entertainment money-making projects will claim to be led by him. Yes, if you lose money, you leave the blame to the poor CEO Yeremov, and a large number of black celebrities simply advertise that he is a prophet and blatantly engage in a cult that deceives people... It is really disgusting. He Litman Media The broken novel website under its umbrella was almost forced to delist, but no one mentioned it. Who knew that PricewaterhouseCoopers and him did not secretly fake things like Arthur Andersen and Enron."

"Come on, he just appeared at the XBOX conference with the world's richest man last month. With the ultra-high shipments of XBOX on Black Friday, 3DFX is now a star company in the mourning Nasdaq listed company. Look. …" His friend Nuzui, and the two saw the former chairman of the Nasdaq Stock Exchange Madoff walking towards Song Ya.

   "I just saw Robert of Goldman Sachs looking for you, APLUS."

   The Nasdaq Index fell like this, and Madoff also left not long ago. Of course, this does not affect his fund to continue to provide stable investment income.

   "OK, thanks to Mr. Madoff."

   Robert must have found himself for the role of Paulson, the chairman of Goldman Sachs in the Wolf of Wall Street. Song Ya tried to hide with champagne, but was still found.

   "APLUS, chat privately?" The only black senior at Goldman Sachs, former chemist Robert, blocked the way.

"OK."

   "It's the same thing we talked about before, APLUS, Mr. Chairman is very upset to appear in your movie." Sure enough, Robert was straight to the point.

   "It's nothing like that." Song Ya certainly didn't admit it, "I've seen the adaptation of The Wolf of Wall Street, and he doesn't have his role."

That role is the prototype of the male protagonist. The king of junk stocks, Jordan Belfort, described in his autobiographical novel as his boss and mentor when he first entered Wall Street. He taught Jordan Belfort in a high-end restaurant while openly sucking, swearing and singing. They are also some tricks for brainwashing ordinary retail investors. In short, it is a Wall Street scum with some personal charm.

In real history, this character is just a Wall Street person who quickly went bankrupt. In the original film of Apocalypse, he played only a very small time. Texas actor Matthew O'Connor made it come to life. Song Ya previously planned to leave it to Carl. Icahn's, now it belongs to Paulson, who is even more annoying.

Of course, Paulson will not be called directly in the play, only actors with similar appearances are used, so of course Matthew O’Connor can’t still be invited. Nicholas Cage is very expensive, and Charisy after fifty shades of gray is also very expensive. Now Matthew O'Connor is already a promising hero by hunting down U571 and other films. He is very handsome when he was a hit, and it is not enough to vent his anger with that kind of male star insinuating Paulson.

   "We have got the script."

   Goldman Sachs certainly can do it, "And noticed that an actor and Mr. Chairman are very similar in image, and the plot is too suggestive. Most people on Wall Street are not... not all of them."

   "Seriously, the old white men look the same." Song Ya smiled hippiely, and it didn't matter if he said it in front of the black man.

   "Is it necessary?" Robert was very serious and didn't laugh.

   "Wow...necessary? Haha."

Song Ya sneered, and then leaned close to Robert's ears seriously, "You promised this promise and that, and then I sprayed the Fed President for you, and informed me of my next move in advance. I did everything, and the result? Yourselves. Quietly backhand short on NASDAQ? You don’t know how much I lost. You also know what happened to the last Bronfman family that caused me to lose so much money!"

"We can't take the risk of exposure of illegal transactions to inform you of APLUS for such strategic actions. That's not the same thing." Robert was overwhelmed by his words, "I apologize to you for Mr. Chairman, you should understand. ."

   "I don't understand."

   Song Ya rolled his eyes, "Furthermore... I filmed my scene. The bank you run is not the same thing."

   "As a black man, I came to you out of good intentions, APLUS."

   Robert turned to say: "Why bother? If the plot is a little bit more appropriate, Mr. Chairman doesn't even mind a guest appearance in person, he can even accept a certain degree of self-joking."

   "No, the whole world hates Wall Street now, especially after the Enron incident, next year's Wall Street Wolf's box office should be good, you are welcome to appreciate it. Of course, you have to buy your own tickets into the movie theater." Song Ya shook his glass.

   "Aren't you also a part of APLUS on Wall Street?"

   "I won't play anymore. I will do business in the future and then make movies and release records. There are traps, fake accounts, and scammers everywhere. Even people with faces and faces have no credibility. After the Enron incident, I have seen them thoroughly."

   "Comeon! APLUS, this matter is more serious than you think!" Robert was a little anxious, "I am doing well for you, you are the pride of our race, I don't want to see you and Mr. Chairman..."

   "Why did you go early?"

   "OK, we are willing to compensate elsewhere..."

   "That's another matter. The character is to commemorate the loss and experience I was cheated on..."

   Now Song Ya will not be tempted by some empty-mouthed transaction to interrupt Robert, "I will talk about the future, anyway, I don't want to be deceived by the same person again."

   "I promise you with my personality that I won't."

"You should have helped me a long time ago, not those old white men!" Robert was a little black and white, and Song Ya angrily scolded him, "And you see, the five major offices are all changing bosses, who knows that the next one will not leave. Is it your'Mr. Chairman'?"

   "Don't you know how powerful Goldman Sachs is?" Robert wistfully said, "Just one Treasury Department, there are all officers from Goldman Sachs..."

   "There are also many Andersen people in Anran, what happened?" Song Ya asked rhetorically.

   "OMG..." Persuasion was unsuccessful, Robert was gone, calling in the name of God and turning away.

   At the same time, in Paris, Vivendi Global CEO Messier was conspiring with Aldo Padoso, the boss of the French branch of Arthur Andersen. The two frightened birds had just had a big fight, but now they have got their heads together again.

"The U.S. may not be able to withstand it. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, the two countries' regulatory agencies will soon turn to us, and all problematic accounts must be closed in this year's annual report!" Aldo Padoso warn.

   "Is that different? It means blew up!" Messier wailed, "Can I stand it!? I will step down 100%!"

   "It's better to go to jail! Neither of us can run away!"

   "Even if we can handle it here, can you guarantee that the accounting documents at your headquarters will not fall into the hands of the U.S. prosecutor? The result will not be the same!?"

   "Don't worry, they will destroy them all...just to take advantage of the Enron incident."

   "Destroy!? You are an accounting firm!" Messier thought he was bold enough, but this is still a little beyond his imagination for many years as a senior manager.

   "There is no way, otherwise do you have any other good ideas?"

  Aldo Padoso said: "Chicago Headquarters took the risk of doing this to preserve the credibility of our Andersen!"

   "Uh... OK, destroy... OK."

   Messier agreed with the sweat of his forehead. He had long known that Andersen’s so-called credibility was of course not a claim of ‘integrity is higher than profit’, but: never trouble customers...
