Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 202 Speeches at the State Government

…

The gold speculation just now allowed him to earn more than he expected, so he already has excess capital to expand his investment in 'credit default swaps'.

"Do you buy all the rated bond swap products of the three companies?" Qin Zhicheng asked.

"Yes, buy them all. No matter if he is 3A, A, or 3B, we all need it! The insurance period should not be too long, two years is enough! Also, go to big companies, such as American International Group, Citi, Morgan, First Boston, etc., their ability to repay is guaranteed.”

Looking at Guo Shouyun, who had made a vow, Qin Zhicheng was a little stunned. His big boss seems to be quite sure that these three companies will default. Although not sure where Guo Shouyun's confidence came from, Qin Zhicheng still traveled his responsibilities faithfully. ..

After talking to Qin Zhicheng about the detailed purchase plan of the 'credit default swap', it was noon. After leaving him for lunch, Qin Zhicheng left.

The next day Guo Shouyun got up early. Today he is meeting with members of the California Assembly and state officials. Explain to them the original intention of the acquisition of the Pacific and Southern California companies, and the business plan after the acquisition is successful.

As a public utility company closely related to the people's livelihood in California, this kind of hearing-like meeting is very necessary to obtain the support of the California state government and Congress for its acquisition. As for the specific negotiations for the acquisition of Pacific and Southern California, he has entrusted Goldman Sachs, Morgan, Citi and Bank of America. They will provide comprehensive financial and M&A services. Guo Shouyun is only responsible for signing the final contract. Of course, the premise is that the contract can satisfy him.

As for the Pacific and Southern California stockholders willing to sell their shares? This seems to be the last thing to worry about. After all, watching the equity in their hands depreciate every day, and when it is about to become worthless, smart people will choose to stop losses in time. Of course, there is no shortage of speculators who hold shares on the sidelines and want to profit from them, but after all, such people are only a minority.

…

The seat of the California state government is located in Sacramento in central California. This western city developed because of the gold rush is known as the "Second Port" in the mouth of the older generation of overseas Chinese. Guo Shouyun is no stranger to this city. When he was still studying, he visited the office of the state government under the organization of the school.

Therefore, this time, although it cannot be said to be familiar, it is not unfamiliar.

"Boss, here we are!"

Guo Shouyun nodded, looked at the beautiful building with a white dome outside, something similar to the White House, the heart of the United States, through the car window, and then pushed the door and walked down.

"Rick, Christo, the two of you come in with me, and the others stay outside."

It is not suitable to bring too many bodyguards here. It is enough to have the two of them and cooperate with the security personnel of the state government itself.

Together with Wendy, the four walked to the door, went through the security check and entered the lobby. Soon, the staff arranged in advance by the state government quickly greeted them.

"Are you Mr. Bruce Guo?"

"I am!" Guo Shouyun nodded after briefly looking at the young man in the suit in front of him.

"Hello, I'm Chuck Watson from the State Office, and this is my work permit!"

"Hello!"

After extending his right hand and shaking it, "Mr. Guo, please come with me. Governor Davis and everyone are waiting for you in the conference room!"

"OK!"

In response, the group followed Chuck Watson and turned left, walked through a long corridor full of murals, and entered a large room with a dome and a quaint atmosphere.

After seeing them come in, everyone who was chatting stopped one after another and looked at the door in unison.

They all have a strong interest in young tycoons who rarely give interviews to the outside world, are controversial in the financial world, and are somewhat mysterious.

"Mr. Guo...!"

Looking at California Governor Michael Davis, who beckoned over, he had already met at the banquet held at the Hanshan Courtyard last time, and the two sides had become familiar with Guo Shouyun's deliberate friendship. Guo Shouyun took a quick glance in the hall and strode forward with a smile.

"Governor Davis, we meet again."

"Bruce, it's not easy to see you now!"

After the two hugged gently, Michael Davis smiled.

"There have been some fluctuations in the gold market recently. For the sake of everyone's investment, of course I have to pay close attention to it!"

"Oh, how much did you earn?"

Michael Davis' eyes lit up. When he attended the banquet, he also invested $50,000 in the Thunder Fund under the entanglement of Guo Shouyun!

"22.37% after tax!" A gleam of light flashed in Guo Shouyun's eyes.

Obviously, for some ulterior motive, he was not telling the truth. But even so, getting such a high income in less than a month is already a very good result.

"Haha, it seems that the decision to hand over the money to the Thunder was the most correct decision." Michael Davis said happily.

"If Governor Davis wants to make more money, he can invest more. I promise to make your investment return more than 00% by the end of the year!" Guo Shouyun took the opportunity to say.

Although now the liquidity in his hands has exceeded 0 billion US dollars. But the money was nothing compared to his ambitions. He needs more funds to achieve his goals.

"This... let me think about it again. After all, the governor of me is not as rich as you!" Obviously, on the premise that the Thunder's investment only made one profit, and there was no accurate evidence, Michael Davis made additional investments desire is not high. However, this is not beyond Guo Shouyun's expectations. He believes that when the second quarter profit and loss report of Lei Ting Fund is sent to the other party's mailbox. Even if he doesn't say it, the other party will take the initiative to make additional investments.

"Come on, let me introduce you."

As this topic affected the relationship between the two, Michael Davis took the initiative to change the topic.

However, no matter from the tone of voice or the subtle movements he took to hold Guo Shouyun's left forearm, it all showed that Michael Davis had a better understanding of Guo Shouyun's close relatives. Of course, this is also understandable. When a person has already earned more than 20% of the profit for you in less than a month, and 100% is guaranteed after a year, you can definitely offer him as a 'father'.

"Bruce, this is Lieutenant Governor Kevin Hannon!"

Looking at the greasy middle-aged man in the Mediterranean, Guo Shouyun smiled and stretched out his right hand towards him.

"Mr. Hannon, nice to meet you!"

"I have admired Mr. Guo's name for a long time, and hope to become friends with you!" Kevin Hannon said enthusiastically.

"This is also what I'm looking forward to. If Mr. Hannon has time, welcome to the Hanshan Courtyard!"

"I will definitely visit as soon as possible!"

The two have greeted each other, and under the circumstance that "the husband is in love and the concubine is interested", they are destined to become friends with interests in the future. How close it is is another matter.

"This is Mr. Bob Kelly, Speaker of the California House of Representatives!"

Bob Kelly is a tall, bald man in a suit and gold wire glasses. To be honest, compared to Guo Shouyun's previous life in China, it is quite common for American men to be bald.

"Hello, Mr. Kelly!"

"Mr. Guo is younger than expected."

"Thank you! In fact, I prefer to be more mature, so it seems more trustworthy." Guo Shouyun shrugged and said humorously.

"Hehe, Mr. Guo's words make us very jealous!"

Young people yearn for growing up, and old people yearn for youth. Human psychology is so strange and complicated.

"This is Mr. General Tom White, Secretary of the California Department of Commerce."

The American political system is different from that of China. In addition to a few departments such as foreign affairs, currency, and trade, the functional departments of the federal government also exist under the state government, and there are also the Senate and House of Representatives, as well as departments in charge of commerce, taxation, and the police. To put it figuratively, the federal government of the United States is the 'Emperor of Zhou', and the state governments are the various 'feudal states'. There will also be contradictions and antagonisms between the two. So you often see the state government and the federal government arguing over the air, and the state law violates the federal law.

"Hello, Mr. White!"

After the two shook hands, "every time Mr. Guo was mentioned, John said you were one of the smartest students he ever taught. He regrets that you didn't apply for his graduate school."

"Mr. White also knows Professor John?" Guo Shouyun asked in surprise.

John Stewart is a professor in the Stanford Department of Economics and Guo Shouyun's university teacher.

"Of course~www.wuxiaspot.com~ We were the same class of graduates of Harvard Business School, and we lived in a dormitory for three years."

After nodding clearly, "Professor John is a respected and learned elder, and I have learned a lot from him!"

"I think John will be very pleased to hear your comments!"

Later, Michael Davis introduced Guo Shouyun to the president of the Senate, the California government auditor general, the California government secretary general, the California government judge, the California tax minister and other senior officials of the California state government. After greeting one by one and establishing a simple connection, everyone sat down with Michael Davis.

"Bruce, I believe you are clear about the purpose of today's meeting. Now, you can state to everyone the original intention of your acquisition of Pacific Power and Natural Gas Company and Southern California Edison Power Company, as well as the detailed development plan after the successful acquisition." Michael Davis Road.

Guo Shouyun nodded and took out the prepared documents from his briefcase. Of course, he had already memorized the contents of the document. The reason why I took it out is that if I forget it, I can open it and take a look to avoid making a fool of myself.
