"If you don't listen to the warning and directly take away the part of the prey we plan to take, what kind of revenge will they take?" Yang Dongxu said after pondering for a while.
"They will definitely go crazy. After all, these greedy guys, the Lehman Brothers consortium probably don't have enough for themselves.
How could it be possible to watch the fattest part being bitten by us, and this bite was quite a lot.
Therefore, it is certain that the gains from continuing to implement the plan will be great, but whether the gains are cost-effective compared with the crazy revenge of the other party afterward, there is currently no way to calculate this.
But what is certain is that the price paid will not be small when the time comes. These people are doing it secretly. "
Abel said with a cold look on his face.
After President Kennedy was assassinated, these consortiums were like hungry wolves rushing to carve up the Boston consortium. Even though Abel was not very big at that time, he still clearly remembers the ferocious faces of those people.
"Can we use this as a condition in exchange for other resources? We don't need to touch the Lehman Group, but the initial investment must be recovered," Picken said.
"Do you think that even if we take a step back this time, they, who have discovered our existence, will let us go as a new group that is growing?
You must know that our combined resources and wealth now seem to be no less than that of the Lehman Brothers consortium. But its influence and strength seem to be a little weaker than Lehman Brothers. "Little Jack knocked on the current table.
Everyone's expressions couldn't help but become solemn.
Because if these consortiums really try their best to swallow them up, they really can't stop them.
After all, the two most capable people in this group are Yang Dongxu and William.
However, Yang Dongxu's influence and resources are mainly concentrated in Asia, or in China, and his influence on the European and American markets is limited.
As for William, the royal family will definitely not have a complete stalemate with the United States. Just like Britain has always stood on a united front with the United States no matter how troubled it is in recent years.
The members of the second level are Little Jack and Abel, two weak American consortiums. They were once brilliant, but now they are weak and almost bankrupt as their living space is squeezed by those large American conglomerates.
Naturally, those on the third level are Picken, Charles and others.
They can only be regarded as successful entrepreneurs with certain influence, resources and connections in society. The underlying framework that pervades this group.
In terms of true strength and influence, compared to Little Jack and Abel, this kind of semi-waste consortium is at least two levels higher. Not to mention the direct conflicts with the big conglomerates in the United States.
So this group will look very strong if Yang Dongxu and William go all out. Behind one stands the rising power in the East, and behind the other stands the once glorious empire on which the sun never sets.
But if two people are too powerful to fully exert their power, it seems that it would be easier for the big conglomerates in the United States to swallow up their group than to swallow up Lehman Brothers.
After all, Lehman Brothers is just a new type of consortium compared to other American consortiums. It ranks at the bottom of the American consortium field.
But it was a real consortium with huge wealth and various connections. It had congressmen in the government and could even influence the military.
But at present, their group is not even a real consortium, and the gap can be said to be clear at a glance.
"It's definitely not possible to just give in." Yang Dongxu said.
All eyes were on him.
And although he said this, if he gave in this time and was settled by those consortiums in the United States, the strength he had gathered before would be shattered. This was the reason why the previous investment was completely in vain.
But this is only one of the reasons.
“With the greed of those consortiums, even if we give in this time, they will definitely not let us go easily in the future.
At the same time, don’t forget that during this subprime mortgage crisis, apart from the apparent fatness of making a fortune from Lehman Brothers, it was tempting enough.
Subsequently, the United States took advantage of the turmoil in the global financial world market caused by the subprime mortgage crisis. Then the Federal Reserve began to cut interest rates, thereby taking advantage of the U.S. dollar's home advantage as the international common currency, and harvesting developing countries was also a feast.
If we directly withdraw from the carve-up of the Lehman Brothers consortium, then do you think they will let us sit at the dinner table when they harvest the feast of developing countries? "
Everyone in the living room frowned.
Obviously, they have to take a step back, and then the various subsequent feasts will have nothing to do with them. They were all kicked out of the carving procession. How could they still be allowed to sit at the dinner table for the subsequent feast?
So if you withdraw at this time, you will lose not only the inability to carve up Lehman Brothers, but also the loss of a big meal later.
The living room fell into silence again, everyone frowned in thought.
After a while, Yang Dongxu tapped his fingers on the table twice to attract everyone's attention and spoke again.
"Since no matter whether we sit at the table to eat meat or withdraw from the table, they will never let us go. Then let's change our thinking. What if we stand behind Lehman Brothers now?"
"this......"
Some people's eyes suddenly lit up, while others' expressions remained solemn.
After all, with these American consortiums causing trouble behind the scenes, it is almost impossible to help Lehman Brothers stop this avalanche.
If you stand behind Lehman Brothers, you may not have to wait until later. Those consortiums can take advantage of this opportunity and take advantage of them now.
"Instead of completely preventing the loan crisis, the avalanche has already begun, even if we stand behind Lehman Brothers. At most, we can only delay the arrival of the big avalanche, but there is no way to stop this avalanche.
I mean, we're on Lehman's side. Helped Lehman Brothers preserve the core wealth and resources of the consortium during the avalanche.
Let Lehman Brothers not be completely carved up by these consortiums at once. Then we will join forces with the Lehman Brothers consortium to fight against them.
Lehman Brothers is a real consortium. Even if the inevitable avalanche severely damages their vitality, the consortium is still a consortium after all, and it is still a consortium whose main strength is retained by us.
With the joining of this consortium, it will not be so easy for those consortiums who want to deal with Lehman Brothers and then turn around to deal with us, because their first target must be the Lehman consortium.
As for how long the severely damaged Lehman Group can last, and whether we should concentrate resources on giving it blood transfusions in the future. Will study this later.
But it is foreseeable that the main force that retains the Lehman consortium can help us prevent the annexation of those consortiums. And even if Lehman Group fails to hold on and collapses in the end, with his buffer during this period, it will give us more time to grow. "
"That's a very good idea."
"It would be best to have in-depth contact with Lehman Brothers and discuss carefully to weigh the feasibility of this transformation plan."
"Before contacting Lehman Brothers, we need to discuss it ourselves. We need to keep the resources of Lehman Brothers and abandon those resources.
After all, it is impossible to prevent those consortiums that have been laying out like hungry wolves for so long from eating meat. Therefore, there is no need to make efforts to guard some things from the beginning to avoid wasting resources and financial resources.
At the same time, the Lehman consortium cannot be too strong. If it's too strong, it will definitely lose its tail. In the end, he lay on top of us sucking blood. When the time comes, it will not be swallowed up by those hostile consortiums, but will be sucked dry by the Lehman consortium, which is equivalent to making a wedding dress for Lehman.
Therefore, when executing this plan, it is best to control the Lehman Consortium after the heavy damage to an extent that can help us block the subsequent attacks of the hostile consortium without being able to engulf us in turn. "
After changing your thinking and feeling that this idea is feasible.
Everyone's speeches became more positive, and various possibilities and methods began to emerge.
“Discuss a plan as soon as possible. We need to keep the core of Lehman Brothers, what price we have to pay, and how much funds we need to mobilize to implement this plan.
Calculate these as soon as possible, come up with a rough plan, and then contact Lehman Brothers. You have to be quick, because it probably won't take long to get there. "
William and Yang Dongxu looked at each other and finally spoke.
The people in the living room looked at each other and everyone nodded.
Little Jack spoke first, "Abel and I have also calculated the core of Lehman Brothers, and then we will discuss how to choose. But before discussing, let me remind you.
It would be best if Lehman Brothers' influence in the military could be fully preserved. After all, this is where we lack the most strength. "
The conference room fell silent again.
Whether military power is important or not, it is definitely important. The truth is only within the range of the cannon, which is a truth that applies everywhere.
And if these groups gain influence in the US military, the level of security will skyrocket.
However, if Lehman Brothers' influence in the military is maintained, and this influence is controlled by the two consortiums, Jack Jr. and Abel, whether these two will continue to be honest is a question that has to be considered.
After all, William has the British military behind him, and Yang Dongxu has the motherland behind him. The two of them covet the power of the American military, but they don't have to get it.
Coupled with their identities, it is impossible to master this power. Therefore, it is only natural that these powers are controlled by little Jack and Abel.
We can't keep such a decisive power in the hands of Lehman Brothers, right?
"This can be within the power retained by the Lehman Brothers consortium. After formulating the plan, we can make investment calculations around this part that must be guaranteed. Is there anything else you want to add?"
After pondering for a moment, Yang Dongxu and William looked at each other again, and finally Yang Dongxu spoke.
Lehman Brothers’ influence on the military must be preserved, because this is one of the main forces that will determine whether Lehman Brothers can help them block the military achievements of other consortiums and must not be given up.
As for who will take control after it is secured, that will be discussed later. The current premise is to secure it first.
“Piken, I, and Charlie worked together to try to figure out clearly the turmoil in the U.S. financial market and the world financial market caused by the subprime mortgage crisis.
Let’s see how to retain Lehman Brothers’ business resources and influence in the most economical way, and then participate in the plan to harvest developing countries after the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates. Sandway said.
"I will use the influence of the royal family to try to block the pressure from those consortiums in the early stage." William will undertake what he can do.
"I came to contact major celebrities and congressmen in Europe and the United States to build momentum for Lehman Brothers. During this period, the senior executives of this consortium often attended high-level gatherings to seek support, but no one paid attention to him. I came to help him stand up," Dean said.
"Give me an approximate amount of funds that need to be invested after calculation, and I will raise and borrow funds." Yang Dongxu also asked what he could do.
In this way, everything that needs to be done in the entire transformation plan has its own duties. We just have to wait for everything to be calculated clearly to see whether Lehman Brothers wants this life-saving straw.
But it shouldn't be a big problem.
Whether to survive or be completely carved up is a multiple-choice question that the Lehman Brothers consortium must be able to make easily.
If you don't cooperate with Yang Dongxu now, you will die. If you cooperate with Yang Dongxu and fail in the end, you will die.
The worst outcome is death anyway, so why not give it a try? For those consortiums that want to carve themselves up, Lehman Brothers must be itching their teeth with resentment at this moment.
If they could bite the opponent back, Lehman Brothers would probably do whatever they could to do it.
What's more, after cooperation, there is still hope of turning defeat into victory, right?
