Paypal was able to acquire Rosperiti Bank at a low price, and Adrian played a lot of role in it. Normally, there are still three pounds of iron left in the broken ship. No matter how bad Rosperiti Bank is, it still doesn't cost more than 600 million US dollars.

, can be taken down.

Adrian's pressure was the last straw that broke the camel's back, forcing Rosperiti Bank to sell itself to Paypal.

This is also the reason why large companies in America like to cooperate with congressmen. Often congressmen will attack and force their prey to sell themselves to big companies.

Of course, the latter also need to show their support by investing campaign funds in these congressmen, helping them win votes, etc.

Of course, Song Yang couldn't let Adrian work in vain. He had to give Adrian's family foundation a sum of money and then invest another sum of money into his campaign office. This is the rule of the world.

Greg sobered up a bit from his drunkenness. After hearing Song Yang's words, he nodded and said, "I understand!"

In Houston, Adrian is having a meal with his wife and daughter at home. Adrian's private life is not mentioned. At least on the surface, the image Adrian portrays is upright, tough, and dares to challenge gang crimes, etc., but he is also clean and considerate of his family.

wait.

This is also the common external image of American congressmen. When they appear in front of the camera, they often appear as a big family with smiles on their faces.

Adrian's wife is the same age as him, in her forties this year. However, she looks like she is only in her thirties after taking good care of herself. Her figure is also well controlled. After all, Adrian's wife loses her face and figure every year.

, the cost exceeded more than 200,000 US dollars.

Adrian's wife, who also comes from a good family, understands that if she wants to maintain a relationship with Adrian, she has to keep her face and figure. Although as Adrian's status and position continue to increase, Adrian will inevitably

There will be some relationships with certain women, but she still hopes that day will come later.

"Oh, really, are you sure you heard it right?"

When Adrian was eating, he saw his wife receiving a phone call. He couldn't help but asked in surprise.

After hanging up the phone, Adrian's wife covered her mouth and said to Adrian, "Dear, you can't believe that the Bruno Family Foundation invested a million dollars in my charity and environmental protection foundation!"

Adrian screamed "yeah" and looked at his wife who had been with him for nearly twenty years. No matter what happened outside, he knew that when his epitaph appeared, it would definitely be with the woman in front of him.

Yes, Adrian is also willing to maintain his relationship with the woman in front of him.

"That means everything you have done has been recognized!" Adrian picked up a piece of salad, put it in his mouth, and said to the woman.

While he was talking, the Alcatel P1 phone placed in his hand vibrated due to the receipt of a new text message.

Adrian picked it up and took a look at it, with a subtle smile on his face. After reading it, he deleted the text message and said to the woman, "I have to say, the salad today was delicious!"

The text message just now was sent by Chief of Staff Matthews. Adrian's campaign office has received multiple donations, with a total donation of more than four million U.S. dollars. It was made by many small American companies and individual donors.

, foundations, etc., are aggregated to the account of the campaign office.

Of course Adrian and Matthews knew who donated the donation. They all knew this kind of thing tacitly. Adrian had always felt at ease with Song Yang, a big benefactor.

The mobile phone Adrian uses now is an Alcatel mobile phone, and the phone cards, broadband, TV network, etc. he uses are all provided by America Telecom.

Adrian, who had served as a Houston Sheriff, knew the methods of the investigative departments, and he did not want everything he said on the phone, or text messages he sent, to be recorded.

Alcatel mobile phones, American Telecom, etc. are not necessarily the most reliable, but they are one of the few mobile phones, telecom cards and broadband that Adrian can choose from that allow him to use them with confidence.

The next day, Rosperiti Bank on the New York Stock Exchange officially changed its name to PayPal Bank, and then announced that it would reorganize its board of directors.

Affected by this news, Paypal's stock price not only did not fall, but began to soar again. Paypal Bank is no longer like a bank, but more like an Internet concept stock. At the slightest sign of trouble, the stock price starts to fluctuate!

Especially after the name change, Paypal Bank immediately released a lot of good news. The Houston Municipal Department announced that it would hand over some public facilities, city public housing projects and other funds to Paypal Bank. This is giving money to Paypal Bank.

These projects are all municipal projects. As long as the Houston municipal department does not go bankrupt, PayPal Bank will invest money in these projects and basically receive stable interest without having to worry about losing money.

The purpose of this announcement is not to tell the outside world how profitable PayPal can be, but to tell those investment banks and institutions that the PayPal crisis has been resolved, the relationship with local snakes has been restored, and there is no need to worry about bankruptcy or closure.

There are many companies under the North American Global Investment Fund, as well as investment industries, such as Double Click, ICQ, America Telecom, Alcatel Mobile, PA Semiconductor, Fortinet, eBay, Amazon, and overseas Yeadex, Sohu, 8848, etc.

They have also announced the start of cooperation with Paypal bank.

For a time, Paypal Bank became so popular that the slogan "A bank for the Internet's own people" even appeared, calling on all Internet companies in America to cooperate with Paypal Bank...

It’s hard to say whether it’s true or not, but the slogan is indeed high-spirited. Paypal Bank took advantage of the situation and announced that it would establish a branch in San Jose. This is the first time since the days of Rosperiti Bank that it has left Houston and begun to expand its territory.

Paypal's stock price has also skyrocketed today. It has been violently pulled all day long. Many Wall Street institutions have entered the market to rush for funds. Paypal's stock price has exceeded 81 US dollars at its highest, and its market value has exceeded 5 billion US dollars. This is

This is the first time since this bank stock went public!

John Harder finally threw away more than half of his PayPal shares when the stock price was eighty dollars. He was not sure whether the PayPal Bank stock price would rise higher, but he felt that his heart really couldn't stand the stimulation.

.

After Conor returned to Houston, he immediately began to reorganize the board of directors of Paypal Bank. Among the seven-member Paypal Bank board of directors, only two were directors of the original Rosperiti Bank, and the remaining five were Song.

Yang, Gleick, Marcus, Aaron Swartz, and an independent director invited from outside, Kenneth, the president of Enron Group.

As soon as this list came out, it aroused some doubts. The original group of directors of Rosperiti Bank were also very dissatisfied. They felt that they had been kicked out of the reorganized PayPal Bank.

But those dissatisfactions and opponents could not make any waves at all, because the entire PayPal bank, from top to bottom, from inside to outside, had no opinion on this board of directors list.

The reorganized PayPal Bank announced that there will be no layoffs, and the salary of ordinary employees will be increased by 3%, and the salary of management will be increased by 5%!

Wall Street institutions, as well as small investors and leeks like John Harder, don't care who has the final say in PayPal. What they care most about is dividends and stock prices. Don't worry about dividends, just change the name.

The old paypal bank had no money to distribute dividends.

But now the soaring stock price makes those investors very satisfied. It is enough for them to see the stock price of Paypal rise. They will also persuade analysts to promote the performance of Paypal Bank after it was taken over. As for who is on the board of directors, they

Don't want to know.

The new Paypal Bank board of directors was quickly formed, and the entire Paypal Bank basically belongs to the North American Global Investment Fund and the Bruno family!

PayPal Bank is making a fuss, and the PayPal payment platform is not idle either. As soon as it acquired PayPal Bank, it immediately announced the establishment of a risk control department. The risk control departments of the bank and the payment platform were merged, and Conor served as the president of the new risk control department.

, and Paypal’s risk control department will cooperate with Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, Citigroup and other banks to build a risk control data center and system covering more than ten states and covering more than 87 million users!

In addition to the risk control department, PayPal also announced that it will work with PayPal Bank to establish operation centers and offices in American states and overseas markets, allowing PayPal to move from online to offline.

This is also to prepare for the new credit and mortgage business. Once the risk control department is established, the PayPal payment platform will launch credit and mortgage businesses online. You can apply online or apply at the offline PayPal bank.

But what attracted the most attention on Wall Street was that PayPal, under the operation of Goldman Sachs, obtained a fund sales license, as well as insurance, bond and other licenses.

If Paypal applies for these licenses by itself, it will take less than a year and a half, and there is no need to think about it. Even if Song Yang goes to Adrian and the Elephant Party, it will be useless, because most of the federal finance departments and institutions are the Donkey Party.

The people over there are not the same as Song Yang.

But Paulson stepped in and these were no longer problems. Paulson asked Goldman Sachs to guarantee Paypal and applied for these licenses for Paypal.

Paypal also started selling an Internet concept fund issued by Goldman Sachs on the platform. This fund is mainly used to invest in Internet stocks.

Goldman Sachs and the entire Wall Street are also quietly watching this fund issued by the Paypal platform. Whether there are people subscribing to it and whether it can raise the funds needed for the issuance, these can allow Wall Street to see whether Paypal has any
Chapter completed!
