Rebirth of the Financial Crisis Sweeping the World

Then Wang Guanxi smiled at the somewhat dumbfounded Brian Schreiber and said, "Mr. Brian Schreiber, what's wrong with you?"

Just now he just casually said that he borrowed US$750 million, but Brian Schreiber was stunned on the spot.

"Mr. Brian Schreiber!"

Wang Guanxi shouted again.

After all, you are also the head of AIG Asia Pacific. What kind of world have you never seen before, and this makes you stunned?

Brian Schreiber finally came to his senses and took a deep breath: "Mr. Wang, you are so energetic. You just borrowed 750 million US dollars casually."

Wang Guanxi smiled lightly: "It's only US$750 million, not much."

Brian Schreiber knelt down to Wang Guanxi again.

Although he has worked for AIG Group for many years, he is just a high-level wage earner. How could he ever have so much money, and he can borrow it casually? This shows Wang Guanxi's personal credibility and personal energy.

You can get 750 million US dollars just by opening your mouth, which is very impressive among the financial tycoons on Wall Street.

He has also been promoted to the head of Asia of AIG Group not long ago, and is far from comparable.

If this US$750 million is not much, then what is too much?

Then Brian Schreiber said: "Mr. Wang, we have a happy cooperation, and the board of directors of AIG Group is also very satisfied with this transaction."

This time, the equity of Huntington Bank was acquired at almost double the premium!

500 million shares, that’s US$750 million!

The share price of Huntington Bank is US$0.8 per share, and 500 million shares are worth US$400 million. Wang Guanxi spent US$750 million to acquire it at a premium.

A full $350 million more.

However, it is normal to acquire high-quality companies and high-quality assets at a premium.

If AIG Group were not short of money, AIG Group would not sell its shares in Huntington Bank at all!

In the future, everyone knows that Huntington Bank will get out of the financial crisis sooner or later, and its stock price will gradually rebound by then.

You must know that Huntington Bank's stock price was at $15 per share in 2006, but the subprime mortgage crisis and the financial crisis directly caused the stock price to plummet to shit.

AIG Group has also suffered heavy losses, but it cannot continue to spend money. Now AIG Group still owes the US government US$85 billion in debt, and the interest is also very high.

Now AIG Group is selling assets around the world to pay off debts.

"Mr. Brian Schreiber, we have enjoyed our cooperation." Wang Guanxi shook hands with him and said with a smile, "We will continue to cooperate if we have opportunities in the future."

At noon, the two had lunch together.

This time Wang Guanxi acquired 50% of Huntington Bank and officially announced his entry into the U.S. banking industry.

The management of Huntington Bank is still from American International Group.

The chairman will naturally need to be replaced. As for the president, it depends on the situation.

Then Wang Guanxi asked about Huntington Bank.

"Mr. Brian Schreiber, tell me briefly about the Huntington family."

Brian Schreiber laughed: "The Huntington family has long had nothing to do with Huntington Bank."

Huntington Bank was originally a family bank of the Huntington family in the United States.

However, it suffered a major impact due to poor management a few decades ago.

Especially from April 1979 to November 1982, the economic crisis in the United States lasted for 44 months.

After the 1980s, the U.S. economy began to recover.

From 1979 to 1982, the Huntington family accepted capital injections from American International Group.

In the days that followed, the Huntington family has been selling shares, and the current shareholding ratio has reached a negligible level.

"The entire Huntington family has long since declined. There is currently a woman serving as an executive at Huntington Bank, named Jennifer Huntington. She also owns 0.1% of the shares, which she inherited from her father, James Huntington."

James Huntington, the founder of Huntington Bank, has passed away. In addition, his private business has been failing, and he has been reducing his stake in the bank, leaving 0.1% to his daughter Jennifer Huntington.

Wang Guanxi asked: "How old is Jennifer Huntington? Is she beautiful?"

Brian Schreiber smiled and said: "She is in her forties. She was very beautiful when she was young. However, due to an accident, one of her arms was broken. Her husband Henry Lawrence also died on the spot. She and her daughter Survived a car accident."

Wang Guanxi said regretfully: "That's really unfortunate."

Brian Schreiber added: "By the way, she also has a beautiful daughter named Jennifer Lawrence. This name is a combination of her and her dead husband's names."

Wang Guanxi smiled and said: "You actually know Brian Schreiber so well? Could it be that you have been with her for a while, right?"

Brian Schreiber shook his head and smiled: "That's not true. I just had a good relationship with her. When I saw that she had broken her arm, I recommended her to return to work at Huntington Bank."

"Although Huntington Bank has nothing to do with the Huntington family, James Huntington has always married Huntington Bank on the spot and worked very hard. However, because she is missing an arm, she cannot continue to be promoted. She is still a middle-level manager of the bank."

"And her daughter Jennifer Lawrence went into show business because she is very beautiful."

Wang Guanxi suddenly asked: "Going to the entertainment industry? Jennifer Lawrence??"

Brian Schreiber also said before that he didn't pay much attention to the notes. Now that he hears about the entertainment industry, he always feels that the name is a bit familiar.

Then Wang Guanxi continued to ask: "Her daughter's name is Jennifer Lawrence? Has she entered the entertainment industry?"

Brian Schreiber laughed: "Yes, her daughter's name is Jennifer Lawrence. What's wrong?"

Wang Guanxi suddenly thought of something.

It seems that Jennifer Lawrence made her debut in the past two years and became an Oscar-winning actress in the future.

You can have this.

Jennifer Lawrence is only 18 years old now.

And Jennifer Lawrence's mother, Jennifer Huntington, who has a broken arm and has been working at Huntington Bank, seems to be promoted to oversee AIG Group's management at Huntington Bank.

Wang Guanxi immediately said: "Mr. Brian Schreiber, please help me inform Jennifer Huntington and Jennifer Lawrence, mother and daughter, and ask them to come to Hong Kong."

Jennifer Huntington, let her serve as a director, join the board of directors, and serve as director.

Jennifer Lawrence, the future Oscar-winning actress, is in the GBE Group, and her future is tentatively decided.

Brian Schreiber smiled and said: "That's no problem."

During the two days of lunch, the news of Blackshirt Group’s acquisition of Huntington Bank was already reported in the Hong Kong media.

Ming Pao: Blackshirt Group enters the banking industry!

South China Morning Post: Blackshirt Group acquires US bank from AIG Group

Sing Tao Daily: Blackshirt Group acquires Huntington Bank for US$750 million, defeating Sumitomo Insurance, Public Bank Malaysia, and Bank Central Asia Indonesia

Oriental Daily: Hong Kong’s Big Short Black Shirt Group starts international expansion

Hong Kong Wenhui Daily: Blackshirt Group, no, Blackshirt Consortium, acquired Huntington Bank of Ohio, USA

Sun Daily: After two months of silence, Blackshirt Group made another big move and directly acquired a US bank.

Hong Kong Commercial Daily: Blackshirt Group acquired 50% of Huntington Bank’s shares for US$750 million, almost doubling the premium. It’s a very wealthy company!

Hong Kong’s financial and banking sectors were all shocked!

The whole topic in Hong Kong this weekend was around Blackshirt Group's acquisition of Huntington Bank.

"Damn it, there's been no news from this black-shirted group for two months. I thought they were going to disappear, but I didn't expect them to come out again!"

"In the past two months, Blackshirt Group has invested in Tengxun Group, and Amazon has suffered huge losses. It is said that Blackshirt Group's capital flow has dried up. Unexpectedly, it suddenly acquired Huntington Bank for US$750 million!"

"It seems that the strength of the Black Shirt Group is far beyond our imagination."

"USD 750 million is HKD 5.8 billion. I thought Blackshirt Group really had no cash flow, but I didn't expect it to be my underestimate."

"It was said before that the Blackshirt Group was trapped because of its investment in Tengxun Group and Amazon, and its capital flow dried up. That's why I cooperated with Shangri-La Hotel Group to fight against the Blackshirt Hotel Group. Damn it!"

"If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have cooperated with Sumitomo Insurance, and I've cut off cooperation with Black Shirt Insurance Company!"

“Can’t Sumitomo Insurance, Public Bank Malaysia, and banks in Indonesia and Central Asia put together a total of US$750 million?”

"The current net assets of Blackshirt Group must exceed 50 billion, right?"

“Hong Kong’s financial sector is about to make a comeback!”

"The financial battles between the Hong Alliance, the Zheng Group, the Huang Group and the Black Shirt Group were all made into movies, with a box office of 50 million. Now the Black Shirt Group has chosen to be high-profile again. Is it going to start a financial war with other financial institutions? "

Haowen Financial Holdings Company, Jia Haowen: "Guanxi is back in Hong Kong, it's just different!"

Fudao Group, Lu Weihao: "This is a big move."

Chen Yongcheng of Yaocai Securities Financial Group: "Wang Guanxi's group has started internationalization"

Pan Fengwei of Fengwei Securities: "I have invested so much money in the mainland, and when I come back to Hong Kong, it will be a US$750 million acquisition!"

Wen Lianrui of Wenlian Financial Holding Company: "You are so powerful. When can I be like Wang Guanxi?"

Gao Pengfei, the president of KBA Real Estate Group: "Wang Guanxi is really rich. Damn it, I have to have a drink with him tonight."

Si Xiuming, who just took office as the president of China Merchants Wing Lung Bank, also exclaimed: "It should be Guan Xi who has returned from Lu City. If he doesn't move, it will be fine. If he moves, it will scare Hong Kong."

Kill the Blackshirt Alliance.

Jiao Xiongbing of Dao Heng Securities was in disbelief: "This black shirt group actually acquired Huntington Bank!"

Adolf Roguli of CLSA had a look of astonishment on his face: "Hasn't their cash flow been exhausted? Where did the money come from?"

Li Songwei of Yiqun Securities was shocked: "It seems that the black-shirted group has been holding back for the past two months. It turns out that it is plotting against Huntington Bank."

You Zhenxuan of OP Securities lamented: "At US$750 million, the cash flow of this black shirt group is really large. Alas, I actually thought they were trapped in Tengxun Group and Amazon."

Jiang Jiwei from Dali Securities looked at the news with dumbfounded eyes: "This is impossible. Why do they still have money to acquire Huntington Bank?"

Yue Runlin from Gaoxin Securities said dubiously: "If this news is not false, then where did they get the US$750 million? This black shirt group has been suppressed by us like a grandson recently."

Ju Debiao of Fengnian Securities was horrified in his heart, and said with a sneer: "$750 million, haha, such a big deal, I'm afraid it's not a loan, right?"

Jiao Xiongbing said: "Maybe they borrowed it, I think they have no cash flow anymore!"

Adolf Roguli: "Yes, they have been in such a mess by us recently. If they had cash flow, they would have fought back early."

Li Songwei: "Yes, they must have borrowed it. This Black Shirt Group has long since exhausted its cash flow."

You Zhenxuan: "I heard that this black shirt group has invested in many technology companies in the mainland!"

Jiang Jiwei: "They are just some Internet technology companies that are losing money, and they only invest in them because of bad intentions."

Yue Runlin: "Wang Guanxi, the boss of the Black Shirt Group, will make big acquisitions when he comes back to Hong Kong. It would be great if Huntington Bank went bankrupt."

Ju Debiao: "The stock price of Huntington Bank has dropped to US$0.8 per share. This is a shameful acquisition at double the premium. I have money but no place to spend it. No, I borrowed money and have no place to spend it. Just wait and see Huntington Bank go bankrupt in the financial crisis." "

On Monday, December 29, when the U.S. stock market opened in the evening, Huntington Bank's stock price soared by $0.4, from $0.8 per share to $1.20 per share.

The faces of Jiao Xiongbing, Adolf Roguli, Li Songwei, You Zhenxuan, Jiang Jiwei, Yue Runlin, Ju Debiao and others all changed.

"Is it so good for this stupid Blackshirt Group to acquire Huntington Bank?"

"This is impossible"

“Are all American retail investors coming to buy the bottom?”

···

At this moment, the coffee shop of Ligang Hotel.

Wang Guanxi, Brian Schreiber, Li Mingbin, Jia Haowen, Lu Weihao, Chen Yongcheng, Pan Fengwei, Wen Lianrui and others gathered together to drink coffee.

Wang Guanxi smiled and said: "Brother Li, thank you for the loan of US$750 million this time. I will mortgage the equity of Tengxun Group to you later."

Li Mingbin smiled and said: "You're welcome, your Blackshirt Group will guarantee it."

Brian Schreiber was shocked when he heard Li Mingbin's words. Is Wang Guanxi's credibility actually so high?

Jia Haowen said: "I am very optimistic about Huntington Bank. Hey, a few of us also went to buy Huntington Bank's stocks at the bottom."

Wang Guanxi asked curiously: "Did you buy Huntington Bank's stocks at the bottom?"

Lu Weihao: "Yeah, I heard that when you were negotiating the price with Mr. Brian Schreiber, I had an idea. It wasn't until you announced the acquisition of 50% of Huntington Bank from AIG Group that we decided Buying its stock at the bottom of the market.”

Chen Yongcheng: "Although many banks have been hit by the financial crisis, we believe in you and follow you to drink soup, haha!"

Wang Guanxi asked: "How many shares of Huntington Bank did you buy?"

Pan Fengwei: "100 million shares"

Wen Lianrui: "Hey, from now on, your Blackshirt Group must run the bank well and don't go bankrupt. We are still waiting for the stock price to continue to rise."

Wang Guanxi laughed: "Don't worry, everyone, you will make money soon."

Then he asked Brian Schreiber on the side: "Mr. Brian Schreiber, have the mother and daughter Jennifer Huntington and Jennifer Lawrence agreed to come to Hong Kong?"

Brian Schreiber said: "Mr. Wang, this is related to their future. This mother and daughter have agreed to come to Hong Kong to see you."

Wang Guanxi nodded: "Very good"

Li Mingbin asked: "Guan Xi, this Jennifer Lawrence seems to be a young star who has just debuted in the United States!"

Wang Guanxi smiled and said, "Yes."

Li Mingbin laughed: "Okay, let's play with foreign girls."

Then he searched for photos and said: "This Jennifer Lawrence has a great figure."

"The beauty in the window"

"Guanxi is blessed"
