Chapter 345, please enter the urn
Hearing Song Yang's words, Kravis couldn't help but feel his heart move. If Song Yang didn't do anything, then Kravis would be disappointed.
Double click inside the New York company, and behind you is the Empire State Building. Every time he comes here, Song Yang can't help but think of some old friends.
Song Yang heard some rumors. Clifford Chance's legal team received news from the New York court. Ella Cherry, who had not yet given up, wanted to find Bledsoe Jayden, who had left Double Click, and let her
He came to court to accuse Double Click Company and Song Yang.
But now Bledsoe Jaden’s current figure cannot be found at all. Even if Ella Cherry finds Bledsoe Jaden, it will have little impact on the overall situation, but after all, he is a disgusting person, and Gallo is also sending
The bounty hunters from Blackwater are looking for Jayden to prevent him from being disgusting.
Shaking his head, Song Yang put these things behind him and looked at Kravis in front of him, "Double Click Company has been encountering troubles since its listing. Some troubles have been resolved, and some still exist!"
"President Kravis, I want to solve the trouble of double-clicking!"
Kravis's eyes flickered a few times. He could hear Song Yang's implication. Being on Wall Street, he was naturally well-informed. "Are they those guys from Creamer?!"
Song Yang nodded, "There is an old proverb in the East, it is indecent to come back without reciprocating. Creamer and the others have "sent" a gift to Double Click. They have been shorting Double Click's stock price. That Double Click should also be "returned" to Creamer and the others.
A big gift will do."
Kravis did not expect that as soon as he saw Song Yang, he heard Song Yang mention this. This veteran of Wall Street was suddenly shocked, "Song, what do you want?!"
After looking at the time, Song Yang said, "President Edison of Deutsche Bank Investment Bank should be arriving soon. I need the support of President Kravis."
"I want kkr Group to help Double Click Company complete a hunt!"
Anshu Jain and Addison sat in a car and rushed towards the office building of Double Click Company in New York.
In the car, Addison, who was closing his eyes and concentrating, asked Anshu Jain, "Double-click the company, did you explain what it was about?"
Anshu Jain shook his head and said to Addison, "Co-president of Double Click Company, Whitman just invited you to come and said that Bruno Song will also be present."
Hearing that Song Yang was also present, Addison, who closed his eyes and rested, couldn't help but frown. If he just double-clicked the company, then naturally Addison couldn't be present in person, but with Song Yang, it was different.
Even the investment bank Deutsche Bank cannot ignore the Internet upstarts in Silicon Valley now, let alone Song Yang, who just had a tough fight with the Trade Commission.
Deutsche Bank is still thinking about the 5% stake in icq. Previously, Deutsche Bank Investment Bank just asked for the investment rights incidentally. It only wanted to play a chess piece in the Internet industry, but who could have imagined that the Internet could be so popular?
This kind of situation.
icq is like a soap bubble, and it has blown up. From the initial valuation of 6 billion US dollars when it raised 300 million US dollars, it has now almost soared to 7 billion US dollars. Among them, icq jointly established NBC and C TV station
, the valuation exceeds US$700 million, and the whole icq bubble is so big!
The key is that Wall Street still does this. Now there are many people advocating for the listing of icq. Once icq is listed, its market value will directly surpass Netscape and become the number one among Internet concept stocks. It will directly become the leader in the Internet industry in Silicon Valley.
Big brother.
Deutsche Bank Investment Bank has 5% investment rights in icq. Even if it does not take advantage, in theory, Deutsche Bank Investment Bank can still make a lot of money as long as icq is listed.
In addition, Addison of Deutsche Bank Investment Bank and Paulson of Goldman Sachs are most concerned about why the Party is so supportive of Double Click this time. Like Paulson, Addison has an instinctive feeling.
Yes, there must be transactions involved behind this.
Although it has not been found out, Deutsche Bank Investment Bank has also received some information. It is known that Song Yang is going to play some tricks, otherwise he would not let the Elephant Party congressmen and state legislators work so hard to protect him.
If possible, Deutsche Bank Investment Bank would definitely have a hand in it!
"I think it has something to do with the recent stock price of Double Click. Some hedge funds have been shorting Double Click during this period!" Anshu Jain said to his boss.
Addison, who had closed his eyes to meditate, suddenly became interested when he heard this. Compared with investment companies and the like, he was still interested in futures trading, foreign exchange, commodities and derivatives, and of course shorting the global stock market.
After all, if you go long, you have to use a dollar knife to push up the market, while if you go short, you can harvest a large wave of bloody steamed buns, and the harvest can be completed in one day...
"President Addison!"
In the double-click conference room, Song Yang, Whitman, Marcus, Kravis from KKR Group and others, plus Addison and Anshu Jain, all the people were present today.
"Song!"
"Clavius!"
Addison still had that unruly look on his face, but when facing the veteran Kravis, he still gave him the respect he deserved.
Still in the straightforward style, without any nonsense, Addison looked at the people in the office and said, "I think there must be something going on today?!"
Kravis, who already knew what Song Yang was going to do, had recovered from the shock when he heard Song Yang's plan, but his expression was still excited. He didn't expect that Song Yang would actually
Prepare to play that big.
"Double Click Company wants to solve the problem of short selling in its stock price." Kravis said at this time.
Anshu Jain asked at this time, "Raise the stock price?!"
Song Yang shook his head, "Not only that, but we also need to get rid of those hedge funds that shorted Double Tap!"
Anshu Jia En, who heard the meaning of Song Yang's words, couldn't help but open his mouth. He guessed what Song Yang meant. He was going to have a big war with the short sellers on Wall Street.
Addison is completely interested. If Double Click Company just comes to Deutsche Bank to borrow a dollar, do a repurchase, and increase the stock price, then Addison may not be very interested. Now I hear, Song Yang
This was preparation for a fight with Creamer's group of short-selling hedge funds, and Addison became interested.
The eyes of a falcon swept over Song Yang, and then towards Kravis, Whitman and others one by one. If other people said this, Addison would not believe it at all, but Song Yang said it,
Addison is somewhat convinced. The performance of Double Click Company this year is enough to show Song Yang's character. He never shows mercy at critical moments!
"Song, what do you want to do?" Addison thought for a moment, "Deutsche Bank Investment Bank can provide funds for Double Click!"
Addison's words have already shown his attitude. He is interested in joining the hunt of short-selling hedge funds such as Creamer.
Hearing Addison's words, Song Yang nodded to Kravis on the side. This time double-clicking on the company's trading would definitely have to be left to Kravis from the old world.
Even though he has passed his glorious period, Kravis still has the most experience. With him joining forces with Deutsche Bank Investment Bank, Song Yang can feel more at ease. Otherwise, everything will be left to Edison. Song Yang is really afraid of him.
I also sold Double Click for a few bucks.
Addison is definitely capable of doing this kind of thing. According to the rules of the Wall Street gang, it is purely a mouse giving New Year greetings to a cat and delivering food to your door. In order to cut leeks, Wall Street can turn the crude oil futures index into negative territory.
Yeah, what else can’t be played...
"Double Click Company will announce the launch of repurchases in the near future, and will start repurchases to increase the stock price. It is expected that Double Click Company's stock price will rise to around fifteen to twenty dollars in the early stage, allowing Creamer and others to continue
Follow up and go short!”
If you want to take something first, you must give it first. The current stock price of Double Click Company is jumping between four dollars and six dollars. If it weren't for Creamer and his gang, who are desperately trying to get rid of the wool, they even threatened to go short until they quit.
The market price is less than one dollar, otherwise there is not much room for short selling.
In order to give Creamer and his gang a better chance to enter the market, Song Yang and Kravis prepared to play a trick of "inviting you to the urn", first raising the stock price by a certain amount so that Creamer and his gang had room to short-sell.
Wolves will lose their minds when they see meat to eat. A good hunter will throw away a piece of meat when hunting. Song Yang can't be stingy anymore, he must let Creamer and the others taste the sweetness!
When he thought about what he was going to do, it might be something that would shock the entire Wall Street and even the global investment industry, and Kravis, a veteran of the trade, couldn't help but get a little excited.
"Double Click's stock has not yet passed the lifting period. This has both advantages and disadvantages for us and Creamer. It means that only a part of the dollar can affect Double Click's stock price!"
Kravis said, "Right now, Double-click's circulating shares are around 20%. Song, WPP Group, Yahoo, Whitman, Lane and other Double-click executives have not sold their stocks yet, so this time we have to do
Yes, KKR Group and Deutsche Bank Investment Bank will acquire these 20% of Double Click stocks at all costs, and then..."
Kravis made a fist in his hand and slammed it on the table. Addison and Kravis said in unison, "Raise the stock price!"
Kravis said this. If Addison doesn't know how to play, then he would be looking down upon him. After hearing this plan, Addison's eyes were full of excitement. Anshu, who is familiar with Addison...
Jia En knew that his boss was completely excited.
Edison asked Song Yang about the current equity issue of Double Click Company. After Double Click went public, in order to "comply with the rules", the equity has become very dispersed. Now Song Yang directly holds the equity of Double Click Company, all of which are owned by America Global Investment.
Foundation management is around 35%.
For the rest, WPP Group holds 18% of Double Click's shares, Yahoo holds 9%, Bruno Family Foundation, Whitman, and Lane each hold 5%, and the remaining shares are Greco's 3%, and Eileen's 1%.
%.
The actual circulating shares of Double Click are around 20%, about 30 million shares, or even less, and a considerable part of them are held by several major institutions on Wall Street.
"The capital required to be invested in the early stage is more than 300 million U.S. dollars. In the later stage, if the stock price needs to be raised, more funds may be needed. If the entire plan is completed, the funds that may be needed are around 7 to 1 billion U.S. dollars. By Double Click, kkr
