Chapter 935 Ellison’s Roar
Faced with the compliment, Richard Fuld just smiled and said nothing more.
If it weren't for profit, he wouldn't bother to come here to waste time.
A ray of light emitted from Old Soros' cloudy pupils and slowly swept over everyone.
Although the tiger is old, its aura as the king of beasts remains the same as before.
The atmosphere in the entire conference room became quiet.
“Everyone, everything that needs to be prepared is almost ready. We will start in one week at most. You must also prepare yourself.
Pigs are very fat, and we all have meat. Eat.”
Everyone had hopeful smiles on their faces, and a sense of greed bloomed in the conference room.
The meeting ended and everyone left.
Larry Ellison rides back to his home in New York.
Ding ding bell...
The phone rang, and after looking at the call, she picked it up.
"Larry, is the meeting over?"
"Yes. ...Golden Caesars has agreed to a loan, but the interest rate is very low, only 4.4%. George is ready to agree."
As Ellison's right-hand man and chief think tank, Howard Stringer was originally eligible to participate in the meeting, but Oracle had too many affairs, so he gave up.
"It's expected. If it weren't for the purpose of paralyzing Golden Caesar, it doesn't matter whether there is interest or not." Howard Stringer said.
"Haha, you are right. We will definitely be able to give Golden Caesar a big surprise then." Ellison continued, "After today, many people increased their bets.
< br>Paul has added an additional US$3 billion, and I am going to add a little more.”
“Larry, I don’t recommend that you continue to add capital.”
Ellison frowned, "Why? Do you still think Golden Caesar has a chance to win?"
This time is not like their last time, where more than a dozen financial and industrial giants, as well as Washington, joined forces to make a plan. .
The strength and energy are more than ten times stronger than last time, and he does not think there is any possibility of failure.
“Although I also think I can win this time, my opponent is Golden Caesar. A financial genius who has never failed in the global capital market for six years!
Geniuses are always different. Yes, we have to give him enough respect.”
"Damn respect, Howard, that arrogant yellow-skinned monkey is dead this time, even God can't save him." Ellison suddenly said irritably.
After so many years of smooth sailing, no one has ever brought him as much humiliation as Xu Liang did.
Especially in the last battle on oil, he lost more than five billion US dollars.
He suffered a heavy loss, and his heart is still bleeding.
As an old friend, Howard Stringer obviously knows Ellison's character very well.
It's almost time for him to vent.
“Larry, you have to understand that the money of Soros, Paul Singer, and Richard Fuld is all investors’ money. At most, a loss will mean the liquidation of the fund, which will not affect Their own wealth.
The four major grain merchants, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, and Disney use the company's own investment funds. Even if they lose money, the loss is the company's money and has nothing to do with them.
< br>But you are different.”
Ellison knew what he meant.
Giants such as the Four Major Grain Merchants, Two Coca-Cola, and Disney basically have dispersed shareholdings, weak board presence, and CEOs holding the most power.
Although the CEO has great power, he only beats the workers.
They participated in Old Soros's actions and made money. The company's revenue soared, and they could share a generous bonus.
If you lose money, the worst you can do is walk away and your property will not suffer much loss.
But he is different. Half of Oracle's shares are in his hands.
If the company loses money, in addition to money, it will also drag down the company's stock price, and he will suffer even greater losses.
"Larry, you are not just yourself, you are also the majority shareholder of Oracle." Howard reminded.
Larry Ellison was silent for a long time and let out a long sigh.
"Howard, this is such a rare opportunity. If I invest less, it will be difficult for me to recover the loss last time."
The last failure has always been regarded as a shame by him.
If he couldn't save it, he would always feel that he was a head short in front of Xu Liang, which was absolutely unacceptable.
“Larry, we have to be patient enough.
Golden Caesar’s assets are rich enough.
After Soros and the others have eaten once, they will never give up just like that. , there will be more opportunities later.”
Once the beast tastes the taste of meat, it will remember the taste and keep eating.
Ellison understands this.
"Okay, Howard. I promise you I won't invest more, but this time the $2 billion must be guaranteed."
Howard frowned, but finally agreed.
In his opinion, US$2 billion is still a bit too much.
It would be just right to cut it in half.
But he knew Ellison.
Two billion is his bottom line.

"Mr. Xu, James and Blankfein called. They have agreed to your conditions."
Took the document from Lu Hui's hand.
"Tsk, tsk, I'm willing to accept the 4.4% interest rate. I've been planning it for a long time."
He glanced briefly and threw it back.
"Delay for a few days and don't bother with them."
"Okay."
Dingle bell...
The cell phone rang.
Xu Liang picked it up and looked at it before picking it up.
“Boss, it’s me.”
A steady and rich voice came from the phone.
“How are things going?”
"According to your instructions, all the security personnel of Standard Chartered Bank have been replaced. All senior executives are surrounded by bodyguards arranged by us. Their families have also been secretly 'protected' by us."
"It's done. Very good." Xu Liang said with satisfaction.
"Boss, what else do you want me to do?" "No need for the time being. You just need to follow the company's regulations to protect their safety. You don't even need to follow too closely to give them a little free space."
Xu Liang smiled.
"Understood."
"That's it, call me as soon as possible if anything happens."
"Okay."
Xu Liang hung up the phone. Playing with the phone, there was a hint of thought in his eyes.
After a while, he dialed out again.
The phone rang for a while and then connected.
“Dear Xu, it’s such a joy to receive your call.”
“Bill, you agreed at the beginning that you would treat me to dinner when I arrived in the United States. I've been here for a week now, but I haven't received your invitation.
Also, don't say you don't know I've arrived in Silicon Valley."
"Haha, why. Yes. After the Kunpeng entered the United States, all the powerful people in the United States knew that the famous Golden Caesar was coming, and I was no exception.
However, there are a lot of things going on at work and at home these days, and I have been unable to get away.
Wait a few days. I will have more time here in a few days. I will treat you to dinner. "
"This is what you said. ”
“Of course. Dear Xu, you know I never lie. "
"That's it. ”
"Okay."
After chatting for a few more words, Xu Liang hung up the phone.
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Gates didn't take the initiative to mention it. It seems that he doesn't know that someone is plotting against you." Lu Huidao.
Xu Liang leaned back, grabbed the beauty's weak and boneless jade hand, and stroked it lightly or heavily, his eyes sparkling.
"On the contrary, this old guy must know. And it's very likely that he also invested some money, so he was vague and didn't want to see me."
After dealing with him for so many years, he was very familiar with the old Gates.
A kind-hearted elder on the surface, but a conspiracy behind the scenes.
As long as you see an opportunity, you will never let it go.
"He is a big customer of Hanhua, why would he take the initiative to deal with you? If you fail, his losses will not be small." Lu Hui couldn't help but said.
Xu Liang nodded slightly and sighed: "The enemy is stronger than we imagined. Even old Gates wants to hedge risks."
Old Gates invested a lot of money in him. If the money loses, he will lose a lot.
So he also bet heavily on the other side.
If Hanhua wins by then, the money he earns will be able to balance the losses on the other side.
Vice versa.
This is hedging.
Not to mention how much money you make, at least you can guarantee that you will not lose money or lose less money.
After Lu Hui understood, her pretty face looked solemn.
"Mr. Xu, we should contact as many Hanhua customers as possible to find out who is behind it."
Xu Liang nodded, he came to the United States this time , obviously feeling different from before.
When he came here in the past, there were always various big guys around him who would treat him to dinner, build relationships, and make connections.
But this time, there were quite a few wealthy people who were not high-level enough. For example, Mr. Trump made six or seven phone calls in less than a week. He was persistent and attentive.
But the real top dignitaries, at the level of Lao Gates and Lao Ba, seem to have disappeared.
Not a single phone call.
Obviously intends to remain neutral for the time being.
He has felt this weird atmosphere more and more clearly in the past few days.
It seemed like an airtight net was covering him from all directions.
It made it difficult for him to move even an inch, and finally he bowed his head and accepted his fate.
Thoughts swirled, Xu Liang's eyes gradually became sharp.
"You want to cut off my body. Even if you lose in the end, your front teeth will be broken."
"Xu...Mr. Xu."
A painful sound rang in my ears.
Xu Liang came to his senses and quickly let go of his hand.
"Sorry, sorry, I was in a trance for a moment."
Looking at Lu Hui's red and congested right hand that was grasped by her, she quickly apologized.
Having practiced martial arts frequently, his hand strength is amazing. He can break even a red brick directly, let alone a human hand.
Although he didn't use all his strength just now, it was still an unbearable burden for the delicate and delicate Lu Hui.
"It doesn't matter." Lu Hui shook her head.
"I'll rub it for you."
Apologetically, he took the jade hand, rubbed it gently, and pushed the blood away.
Feeling the man's tenderness, Lu Hui's pretty face turned red and she felt quite sweet in her heart.
"Brother Liang, we're here."
Huo Gang's voice came from the front.
Xu Liang looked through the car window.
Outside, a grand gymnasium stands proudly facing the rising sun.
However, it can be seen that this magnificent stadium has not been completely completed, and the protective wall surrounding the entire stadium has not been demolished.
"Get off."
After examining it for a moment, Xu Liang opened the door and got out of the car.
Seeing his figure appear, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit with a slightly plump figure quickly came up to him.
