Chapter 242 The troublemaker appeared
It wasn’t until the bell of the New York Stock Exchange rang that everyone woke up from the chaotic scene.
For many people, today is definitely a Black Monday.
Except for the 10 listed companies that issued a joint statement, the remaining companies, including Intel, which signed the joint statement, all fell by more than 50%.
This is the most tragic day for listed information technology companies in history. Dozens of information technology stocks plummeted to varying degrees.
Fortunately, this is only a disaster for technology stocks. It has not had a big impact on stocks in other industries. Although the market is moving in a downward direction, the Nasdaq index overall only fell by 2.36%. This is because Influenced by technology stocks.
At this time, on the 102nd floor of the Empire State Building at 350 Fifth Avenue, between West 33rd Street and West 34th Street in Manhattan, New York, a middle-aged man with a big belly looked dead. , with a trace of nostalgia for the world in his eyes, he looked down fearfully.
Afraid of heights, he felt dizzy and took a few steps back in fear.
However, when he thought of his current situation, he bit his lower lip and climbed up the wall.
The middle-aged man, originally a private equity investor, is also a well-known financial giant on Wall Street, with hundreds of millions of dollars in assets.
He is a big fan of the technology industry and has invested in dozens of technology companies.
However, just one day later, not only did the assets in his hands depreciate significantly, he also owed the bank nearly 100 million U.S. dollars, because many of his stocks were mortgaged with the bank.
Everything happened so suddenly.
It was so sudden that he couldn't even accept the fact.
"Farewell, dear world, and my beloved family." The middle-aged man closed his eyes and said to himself.
After saying that, he jumped directly from the roof of the Empire State Building.
Bang!
After a loud noise, there was a commotion on Fifth Avenue, and everyone fled frantically.
Fortunately, the middle-aged man did not hit anyone, but hit the roof of a slow-moving car. Blood flowed down both sides of the roof.
A man and a woman who were sitting in the car opened the door in fear and fled the car.
This day is destined to be a nightmare for many investors.
The middle-aged man was not one of them. It is understood that at six o'clock that evening, the 63-year-old legendary Wall Street fund manager also jumped out of the office window of his company.
The reason is very simple. If the investment fails and he does not commit suicide, the crazy Christians will definitely make it difficult for him.
Moreover, his entire net worth is also in it.
This shows how great the impact of this stock market disaster is.
Many people already hate Yang Chaoye.
Su Cheng has not been out of the hotel all day today, but he did not expect that a press conference would have such a huge impact on the stock market.
Even if he knew, he would not stop.
"Boss, I heard that two Wall Street tycoons committed suicide by jumping off the building tonight." In the evening, when Su Cheng and Zhang Qizheng were eating in the hotel cafeteria, Zhang Qizheng suddenly said.
"Oh? What's the reason?" Su Cheng asked in surprise.
He hadn't been out for a day, so naturally he didn't know that two big guys in the area had chosen extreme paths one after another.
“Speaking of which, it has a lot to do with the release of Oracle computers, because the release of Oracle computers caused many technology stocks to plummet, which ultimately led to this situation.” Zhang Qizheng said with some emotion. said.
He has worked on Wall Street for more than ten years. He has seen the suicide of a boss many times, and every time it was because of investment failure.
So, although he behaved as if he were accustomed to it, he remembered that he was also a member of Wall Street in the past, so he started to channel it for them. People in the financial industry, regardless of their superficial appearance, are under great pressure.
Fortunately, I made the most correct decision five years ago and followed Su Cheng, who was only a teenager at the time.
This decision is really great.
"It seems that we really cannot bring out very advanced technology in the future, otherwise the impact will be too great!" Su Cheng thought after listening to Zhang Qizheng's words.
However, the world of capital is so cruel.
So Su Cheng did not feel that this would offend his conscience.
"Intel has fallen by 63.28%, and it is expected to continue to fall after the market opens tomorrow. If there are no investors entering the stock, the decline will basically be unstoppable. I never expected that the most promising new technology star in the beautiful country will Such a disaster!" Zhang Qizheng continued.
"It had to be you who predicted in advance that Intel would collapse and evacuated early. No, I have to ask the finance department to give you a big bonus after I go back!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
"There is no need for this. I earn enough. These things are just within the scope of my basic work." Zhang Qizheng shook his head and said.
In the past five years, Zhang Qizheng has made several times more money than he did in the previous ten years on Wall Street, so he is very satisfied.
"You have to take what belongs to you. If you have merit, you should be rewarded. I will ask the finance department to call you directly." Su Cheng said directly.
Although Zhang Qizheng did not continue to answer, he was still very grateful to Su Cheng.
What a good boss, worth following him for a lifetime!
At this moment, a bodyguard came over and reported to Su Chenghui: "Boss, one of our bodyguards just received a call from the front desk during his break, saying that Mr. Yang Chaoye is looking for you."
< br>The hotel knows that those rooms are in the same group as Sioux City, so if the call to the Sioux City room is not answered, the call will be sent to other rooms.
“Did you call me?” Su Cheng asked in surprise.
"No, it's already in the hotel lobby on the first floor." the bodyguard replied.
"Go down and bring him up!" Su Cheng ordered.
This hotel is very strict about security. If you are not a tenant here, you cannot come in if no one is with you, and even if someone is with you, you must register your information.
"Okay boss!" the bodyguard said and left quickly.
About five minutes later, Yang Chaoye came up to the hotel cafeteria.
"Mr. Yang, have you eaten?" Su Cheng asked with a smile.
"Not yet. I have something to tell you, so I rushed over here." Yang Chaoye shook his head and said.
"That's good, let's eat here. By the way, now that the press conference is over, how about you move over here?" Su Cheng said with a smile.
“We won’t move anymore. The experience store in Times Square is the flagship store in America. I have a lot of things to do these days, so it’s inconvenient to come here.” Yang Chaoye said.
"Well, it's up to you. Thank you for your hard work. The dining tools are over there. Go and get them." Su Cheng nodded.
Yang Chaoye made a plate of steak and pasta, brought it over and sat next to Su Cheng.
"What's the important thing for coming here in person?" Su Cheng couldn't help but ask.
“Well, I received news that the heads of dozens of large and small technology companies, including MoneyGram International Co., Ltd. and Digital Equipment Corporation, have united and are preparing to file a complaint with the Securities and Exchange Commission! Yang Chaoye said with a suspicious look.
