Kai doesn't know much about finance, but he still has the basic logic. Since the stock has plummeted, why buy it?
Isn't this common sense?
Kai is not a person who likes to pretend to understand something, so he asked directly.
"No! We Kingsman analysts have always believed that Tony Stallone is a genius, an epoch-making genius. The separation of the weapons manufacturing department is indeed a major blow to the Stark Group, but we all believe that this is only temporary.
"." Afu explained the reason why he bought a lot of bargains.
One thing Kai must admit is that Stark is indeed a genius. Who can make a set of steel armor from a pile of scraps? That thing can fly! Although it is not easy to control, in Kai's opinion it is very awesome.
.
"Oh, is that so? That's up to you."
"Yes. This kind of opportunity to buy the Stark Group at the bottom is rare. We will use the name of Wayne Group to absorb more stocks in the stock market and become one of the major shareholders of the Stark Group." The consortium held mutual support.
It is a normal phenomenon for a large consortium like Stark Group to become a major shareholder, at least it needs to hold more than 1% of the shares. Afu obviously has greater ambitions, at least at this stage.
Two percent of the shares cannot satisfy his appetite.
After all, among other things, the patents and scientific research capabilities within the Stark Group are enough to make almost all organizations in the world covet it. Kingsman is naturally no exception. However, because of Kingsman’s special status, Kingsman is destined to be unable to directly hold shares.
A company like Stark Group will cause dissatisfaction with the US government and SHIELD. Therefore, using Wayne Group to indirectly hold shares in an important technology company like Stark is undoubtedly the best choice.
Ah Fu looked at Kai and his eyes were filled with mosquito coils, so he decisively shut up.
No one is perfect. The master he serves does have great power, but he is not omniscient and omnipotent. Ah Fu has known this since he was young. But this does not affect Ah Fu's loyalty to Kai at all. An excellent housekeeper will not
Is it just to make the master you serve more perfect?
Leaving aside the small matters on Kai's side, what is really exciting is the turmoil in the stock market.
As Stark announced the closure of the weapons production department, fierce quarrels immediately broke out within the Stark Group.
Those shareholders who were affected by the drop in stock prices convened a shareholders' meeting at the call of Stark's uncle Obadiah Stane, hoping that Tony could take back his life. Unfortunately, willfulness has always been synonymous with Tony Stark.
Young Master Huahua has no intention of changing his tune.
As a result, Stark Group's stock price began to fall crazily. In the past week, the stock price continued to fall at a daily rate of 5%. The overall decline in stock price has exceeded 40%, but it has no intention of stopping. Except for the willful and conceited Tony, no one suffered
Such a terrible loss.
So at the latest shareholders' meeting, Obadiah announced to the public that Tony Stark needed to rest due to poor health and resigned from all his positions in the Stark Group. At the same time, he emphasized that the Stark Group was still internally stable.
Please don't worry about this. The stock price has plummeted continuously, and Uncle Tony can no longer hold on.
However, such an action did not stabilize the stock price. Instead, because of Obaday's move, the outside world interpreted it as that the Stark Group had finally fallen into division. Then after the stock market opened the next morning, the share price of the Stark Group moved at a
It began to plummet at an unimaginable speed!
This wasn't even fun. Just when Obadiah and a series of shareholders were thinking about it, two major shareholders suddenly announced their withdrawal and transferred their shares to Tony Stark!
This makes Tony Stark's shareholding suddenly exceed 47%!
Some experts analyze that Tony Stark is planning to take back power of the company.
This immediately detonated the entire market!
The stock price that had plummeted began to rise rapidly!
This is not because the market has restored confidence. On the contrary, this is because everyone knows that a war is coming and they all want to take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money.
The situation is now clear. Tony Stark does not want to be sidelined, but wants to take back control of the group, and even does not hesitate to obtain more than 51% of the absolute controlling stake. According to Tony Stark's always willful personality
, once he takes control of the company, the divestiture of the weapons production department will inevitably occur.
Of course, it is impossible for other shareholders to accept such a result. In order to fight against Stark, they must acquire shares on the market before Stark completes his absolute control.
When other speculators see this situation, they will of course buy up Stark's shares. As long as they reach a certain level, they can influence the direction of the Stark Group this time and have both sides. Doesn't that mean they can set whatever price they want?
So the three parties exerted their efforts, and the stock market was thrown into chaos.
Countless investors who sold their stocks at low points regretted it. If they had known better, they would not have sold so quickly.
But what everyone didn't know was that just when Stark made the move, more than four percent of the shares quietly flowed to the name of Wayne Group.
Wayne Group is a company that is not very eye-catching in the United States. The company's main business is the business of the former technology giant Valentine Group, which plays an important role in the field of communications. But even so, it is still not very famous. After all, Valentine lost his temper after the plane crash.
, the company did not change its name even after it was acquired, and it was deliberately kept low-key, resulting in many people only knowing the Valentine Group and not being familiar with the Wayne Group, the owner behind it.
Of course, this is only for ordinary people. Really thoughtful people are still aware of a powerful company like Wayne Group.
At the same time, some people also noticed that Wayne Group was quietly absorbing shares of Stark Group during the internal strife in Stark Group.
…
Pepper was very tired. With a boss like Tony, Pepper naturally couldn't relax. As the president's secretary, she was actually in charge of the daily operations of the entire group. She was already tired enough, but as a result, she had to wait for Tony to turn the corner, and the workload became even greater.
Already.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! What's more important is that after Tony handed everything to Pepper, he really didn't care about anything and focused on studying the steel armor in his underground laboratory.
That's right, this share war was orchestrated by Pepper.
"Pepper! I hope you can persuade Tony! He should understand that doing this will only benefit outsiders, but will destroy everything that Howard and I have built!" Obadiah made a final effort, he really wanted to
Kill Tony and take control, but not now!
A series of events have put Tony under the spotlight. Obaday is not a fool, so it is naturally impossible to kill Tony at this time. That will only put himself in a disadvantageous situation.
"Mr. Stannie... you should know Tony. Once he makes a decision, it is impossible to change it. There is nothing I can do about it." Pepper can understand Tony's decision, but if you really want to say support it, it's really not possible, but who can say that?
Does she like Tony? She is willing to support everything Tony does.
"I want to see Tony, I need to talk to him in person." Obaday said seriously.
"If you insist... Jarvis!" Pepper shouted from the living room.
"Yes, Miss Pepper."
"Call Tony for me."
"please wait."
After a while, Jarvis said: "Master Tony refuses to visit."
"Just say Mr. Stanney wants to see him," Pepper continued.
After a while: "Hello?"
Obaday immediately shouted: "Tony! Where are you!"
"Oh! Stannie! How are you doing?"
"Listen Tony, I'm not here to quarrel. I don't want to conflict with you. I grew up watching you. But what you are doing now is hurting me and the entire company. I hope you can calm down."
Obaday is Howard Stark's friend and business partner. After Howard's death, he became Tony Stark's mentor. On Tony's part, he has always trusted Obadie, and he has always done so until now.
Even though they have always had ideological conflicts over the future of the company, Tony still trusts him.
"No, I'm calm, Stannie. I know you can't understand my decision, and I won't blame you. But it's inevitable."
Obadiah felt agitated.
"Where are you? I want to meet and talk to you."
"Oh, then you have to wait a while."
"I can wait! Where are you?"
"On the road, on the way to Afghanistan!"
"What?!" Obadiah said in surprise.
Just as he was talking to Obadiah, a bright fire flashed over the sea west of Los Angeles.
Tony is back to find a place. Although all the terrorists in the valley have been killed by Kai, the Ten Rings Gang has more than 200 people. In fact, as the world's top air force organization in Asia, the Ten Rings Gang has at least 200 members in Afghanistan.
Twelve thousand members were active. The group that Kai killed was only a small branch among them, and had minimal impact on the overall Ten Rings Gang.
…
The next day, Obadiah saw the news.
The US military spokesman on the news claimed that the US military did not launch any attack near Gemilla yesterday, and that everything was just internal strife among the air fighters and trying to frame it on the US military.
Obadiah squinted his eyes and watched the news. He did not call Tony again, but sneered to himself: "Tony, Tony! What are you doing? You closed the weapons department, but you created the most terrible thing."
You come out with powerful weapons and use them to destroy my business. You kid always likes to deceive yourself and others."
Having said this, Obadiah made the internal phone call.
"How's the research going? Why not? I'll be right over."
Twenty minutes later, Obaday arrived at a laboratory at the Stark Group headquarters in Los Angeles. He faced a middle-aged man in a white coat and glasses and asked, "What's going on?"
The middle-aged man with glasses was a little helpless: "Mr. Stan, we have encountered a little difficulty."
Obadie: "What difficulty?"
Energy supply system. In fact, the technology to provide energy for this mecha has not yet appeared..." the middle-aged man with glasses explained hesitantly.
Obadiah hugged him and pointed with his other hand at a huge thing in front of the two of them: "Wait, it didn't show up? William, it's right in front of you. I just need you to shrink it a little bit and then put it in."
It’s just in that suit of armor.”
The middle-aged man in glasses looked at the behemoth in front of him with embarrassment - it was a giant arc shock reactor with a diameter of more than five meters and a height of more than three meters.
This is also Tony's masterpiece, an experimental work of a new type of energy. It is also the core part of the power system that Tony is preparing to build at the group's new headquarters.
Not to mention the size issue, what really makes Glasses feel embarrassed is that this thing... is not stable at all. This is just a test product created by Tony. There are still many obstacles that need to be solved. Glasses doesn't even dare to let the reactor run at full capacity.
, because I’m afraid this thing will explode!
It may be a bit exaggerated to say that this thing exploded and destroyed half the city, but it is not difficult at all to blow up a few blocks.
This is the bomb!
And... this thing has just been invented, and there is still a long way to go to miniaturize it. This requirement is similar to shrinking the first electronic computer in the 1940s to the current one.
Notebooks are generally unscientific.
After all, computers have been developed for seventy years, and it has only been a month since he took over the armor manufacturing project. After Tony was kidnapped, he was selected by Obadiah as the person in charge of the project...
A boss who doesn’t understand technology sounds like an idiot!
"Yes, sir. We tried our best, but to be honest, it can't be done." Desperate for the technical idiot Obadiah, William could only give a simple negative answer.
Veins popped up on Obadiah's forehead, and he leaned forward, looking down at the glasses that were a head shorter than him: "Stark made it in the cave, using a bunch of rags, it's just so small."
As he said this, Obadiah also made some gestures.
The glasses were helpless. How could he know how Tony did it? If he knew, wouldn't he become Tony?
"I'm really sorry, I'm not Tony Stark."
The professional ethics of scientists force the glasses to tell the truth.
Periodic breakthroughs in science can only be driven by a very small number of super geniuses.
But super geniuses are always in the minority. There are many scientists in the world, but how many can be called super geniuses?
For example, Einstein pushed theoretical physics to a peak after he proposed the theory of relativity. However, after so many years, theoretical physics has still stagnated. Real top scientists are irreplaceable.
To the eye, Tony is a modern Einstein, and he is...a nobody, maybe smart enough, but not a genius.
Obadiah's eyes widened and he was speechless.
After a while: "Yes, Tony is irreplaceable!"
After saying that, Obadiah turned and left.
Glasses shrugged, thinking that Obadiah had given up. But little did he know that Obadiah meant that since others couldn't do it, just go to Tony directly.
"Just make one last contribution to me, Tony."
…
After another conversation with Tony, Pepper had no choice but to leave Tony's house.
She has more important things to do.
For example, the shares held by Wayne Group.
Since Tony insists, then the Wayne Group must win over. At least it cannot be allowed to turn to the opposite side.
As long as he can get more than 4% of Wayne Group's shares, Tony can truly have absolute control!
