Chapter 167 A market value of [-] billion, leaving the market with [-] billion 【Subscription】

In fact, Tao Xi could not have come to the London Stock Exchange to ring the bell this time.

However, because the Toronto Stock Exchange is affiliated to the London Stock Exchange, there is an unwritten rule in the London Stock Exchange that when your backdoor listing expires three months later, the largest shareholder must ring the bell.

Tao Xi, who came to London for the first time, was taken to the hotel by Pierre, the manager of the investment and financing department of Wells Fargo Bank, before he could appreciate the boys and girls on the streets of London.

The Goring Hotel is the only hotel designated by the royal family

The luxurious decoration inside and the retro interior make it full of aristocratic atmosphere in an instant.

When Tao Xi, a country bumpkin, saw that there was a small fountain in the room where he lived, Tao Xi squatted there and played for a long time.

"Mr. Tao Xi, this is the list of merchants who have proposed to Wells Fargo to acquire your shares. You can take a look."

Peel didn't look down on the man in front of him just because he had just turned 18, and even looked like he hadn't seen the world.

Just when the U.S. stock market was closed, the market value of the Nicaraguan Mineral Energy Group had exceeded 800 billion U.S. dollars!
You must know that the Toronto stock market, which came to ring the bell this time, now has an overall capital volume of only 1.1 trillion.

Just counting the apparent assets of this Mr. Tao Xi, he is enough to sprint to become the richest man in the United States!

"Let's invite Mr. Buffett first. I'm looking forward to meeting him. Without his guidance on the phone, my affairs might not have gone so smoothly."

Pierre nodded respectfully when he heard Tao Xi's arrangement.

After seeing Peel leave, Tao Xi threw the list of merchants in his hand into the pool with a look of disdain.

There are 7 merchants on this customer list recommended by Daniel.

No matter how reluctant Daniel was, he was just a politician.

Maximizing the interests in his hands is his best choice, but the only thing that makes Tausi feel relieved is that Daniel explained it to Marco many times in private.

Mike Somoza only recommended one, the famous Bakri Gold.

After multiple listings and equity distributions, Tao Xi only has 18% of the shares left in his hands, while the two parties of the Nicaraguan government jointly hold 36%.

They don't dare to dilute the equity in their hands anymore. If the company's operating efficiency is not good, maybe they will continue to increase capital and hold shares.

But Tao Xi was different. What Tao Xi paid in this matter was only a promise and a right to hold a gold mine that might not be under his control at any time.

According to today's stock market price, Old West reported an exact figure to Tao Xi.

132 billion!
12 billion more than Tausi expected.

If Tao Xi had waited for the moment when the bell was ringing tonight, he would have announced that the operation rights of the [Nicaragua Grand Canal] would also belong to the [Nicaragua Mineral Energy Group].

The shares in Tao Xi's hands may double his assets!
But Prince's grandpa, Shay Sr., had a word for him on the phone.

[Eating alone in the United States will kill people. You have already got what you should get, and leave the rest to the market. Divert conflicts, divert attention, and be quiet for a year. 】

[You are still young and have many opportunities, don't let those old guys focus on you. 】

【Otherwise I can't keep you. 】

Tao Xi listened to this sentence, so today he decided to divide his shares into three shares, one to Wells Fargo for sale; one to Buffett for sale; and the other to the market.

As for those merchants who entrusted Daniel and Mike to buy his shares, they are bullshit!
Wells Fargo Bank represents the older generation of American plutocrats; Buffett represents the modern Wall Street elite headed by Jews; as for the market, it is nothing more than human relations.

Tonight he is the landlord!

When Warren Buffett came, he didn't come alone. There was a middle-aged man in his 50s standing next to him.

"Wow, let me take a look at the richest man in America who will be born tonight."

Warren Buffett walked up to Tao Xi and gently patted Tao Xi on the back, then pointed to Murdoch who was standing aside and joked: "This Mr. News Corp. media tycoon should not put us What is being discussed tonight will be in your paper?"

Murdoch shook hands with Taoxi as soon as he heard it with a smile: "It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm very interested in the yellow pages in your hand."

"The Yellow Pages are not for sale."

Murdoch turned his head and glanced at Warren Buffett who was drinking coffee: "I also really want to have a sip of soup at the feast that belongs to Wall Street tonight. I hope Mr. Buffett will give me 10 minutes."

Warren Buffett replied with an indifferent expression: "If I didn't know that Tao Xi likes beautiful women, it wouldn't matter if I slept with him tonight."

The negotiation between two old foxes and a little fox started in this witty atmosphere.

"Taucy, are you really not considering selling the Yellow Pages?"

"Mr. Murdoch, do you think I will still be short of money after tonight?" Tao Xi asked him directly when he saw Murdoch who was not dead.

Murdoch shook his head with a smile and was silent for a while: "I don't know how much Nicaragua shares you can sell to me?"

"It depends on your sincerity, Mr. Murdoch, since you can understand the value of the Yellow Pages, I hope you can bring out the things I am interested in."

That's right, that's Tao Xi's plan.

In fact, many listed companies or high-quality companies are not for sale in the market. If you don’t have something equivalent in your hand, it is difficult to get the other party’s acquisition permission.

After nearly a year of development, Yellow Pages has covered more than 1 million users, and its active subscribers have reached more than 2100 million.

It may not sound like much to you, but the total population of the United States during this period was only 1.37 million.

And the Yellow Pages covers only a few states. If there is enough time, the Yellow Pages may not be able to grow into a newspaper that covers the United States in all directions.

Moreover, the stickiness of this newspaper is extremely high. The content on it is about house rental, talent recruitment, and second-hand goods transactions, and the person who publishes this news only needs to pay 50 US dollars to publish it.

Maybe [Yellow Pages Convenience Life] will become an indispensable thing in American life in the later stage of development.

Murdoch, who is deeply involved in the media industry, also knows this.

After hesitating for a moment, Murdoch suppressed his heartache and said: "Reuter's shares, News Corp. holds 5% of Reuters' shares. If you have the blessing of Reuters' distribution channel, I think your Yellow Pages can definitely buy it." Take the fast track."

Tausi's eyes lit up when he heard Murdoch's conditions. Reuters can cover news agencies in 128 countries around the world!

With the blessing of Reuters, what else does he worry about?
"I spent 1.7 million US dollars when I invested in Reuters, and now I need to replace 3% of the shares in Nicaragua in your hand!"

Murdoch shook his back molars and announced a price that made Buffett look sideways.

Tao Xi's answer was also very straightforward.

"Not enough! I don't know if Mr. Buffett said anything about the big news I'm going to announce tonight. If you know, I think you might have to re-examine what you gave me."

Upon hearing this, Murdoch set his sights on Buffett again.

"I hope you have blood pressure medicine with you."

"The Nicaragua Grand Canal is about to start construction, and [Nicaragua Mineral Energy Group] is the operating company of the Grand Canal!"

Murdoch, a media tycoon, uttered a foul language in front of Tao Xi.

"Oh! My God!"

"It's fake! Right?"

"Even if you have 100 billion, it's not enough to dig canals!"

Tao Xi also replied frankly: "That's right, but you can earn a large sum of dollars in the shortest time that can make the whole world shut up!"

Panting violently, Murdoch picked up the water glass and took the antihypertensive medicine in his arms, and then rested for a long time.

"New York Post! New York Post!"

"No more! You know that these assets in my hands are not for sale!"

陶西看了一眼巴菲特放在耳朵边上的两只手指头直接站了起来主动伸出他的左手：“2%价值15.1亿美元！如果你同意，那么今晚你很有可能会用这2%的股份赚到他的2倍、3倍、4倍，如果你不同意，我也很愿意和你成为朋友。”

Murdoch stretched out his right hand without any hesitation when he heard Taoxi's offer and replied, "Deal!"

put pen to paper, sign

Seeing this scene, Buffett smiled and made a joke to Murdoch: "It seems that we have one more member. Tomorrow, the news media all over the world will start advocating this amazing company."

"You both saw it!"

"I am very old, but for the delicious dollar bills, I am willing to fly back to New York tonight and arrange news to bomb the world!"

Murdoch's departure made Buffett feel much more relaxed, but Tao Xi still sat opposite him with a tense face.

"take it easy!"

"I've known Old Shay for a long time, and he said he'd rounded up $45 billion for you."

"I am not a stingy person either. I am willing to give you a 43.8% stake in Coca-Cola on top of the US$1.3 billion."

"This can be regarded as the kindness expressed to you by the people behind me."

"I hope you can speak out tonight in a place where everyone is watching so that all shareholders can join you."

Before Tao Xi could speak, Warren Buffett signed one side of the contract neatly.

"I wish you the best night ever tonight."

When Warren Buffett said this sentence, the old guy's eyes kept blinking.

Until Buffett went out, Tao Xi did not find any abnormalities around him.

Time just passed by.

There is another guest who has not come for a long time.

Manhattan Avenue, another street from the hotel, was already crowded with various news vans and reporters.

There are also some celebrity tycoons invited by Wells Fargo to personally stand for [Nicaragua Mineral Energy Group].

There are countless little stars pointing at the billionaires on the list at tonight's banquet.

A middle-aged man who was not tall but slightly fat walked slowly towards the Goring Hotel. The bodyguards huddled around him made it clear that this man was not simple.

Osamu Suzuki, who was about to arrive at the hotel, waved to the bodyguards behind him, and the huge team dispersed instantly.

"Boom"

"Boom"

"Boom"

Tao Xi, who just opened the door, saw a person bent over and bowed at the door, which almost scared Tao Xi.

"Mr. Suzuki!"

"You're welcome, you're welcome, you kowtow when you meet, you are so polite."

Osamu Suzuki explained to Tao Xi very politely that this is a tradition in their hometown, and the two sat in their seats one after another very politely.

In fact, Tao Xi was very curious about the Japanese people who started the crazy "buy, buy, buy" model in the United States in recent years. At first, Tao Xi wanted to get to know the person in charge of Mitsubishi Motors.

It's a pity that Mitsubishi Motors has better relations with Goldman Sachs and Citigroup in the United States.

Tao Xi, who was the next best thing to do, met with Osamu Suzuki, the president of Suzuki Motors for nearly 40 years.

"Tao Jun, are you from the East?"

"Yes, my hometown is in the East, and later my parents escaped the war and came to the United States."

Hearing this, Osamu Suzuki immediately stretched out his left hand and greeted enthusiastically: "I hope you can go back and take a look. I am very optimistic about the economy there, and I even invested in a Chinese automobile factory there."

"Hahaha! I won't be polite to you anymore. In fact, the first thing I saw you this time was to acquire some patented technologies from your company, and the second is to see if your company's Suzuki Motors accept cross-shareholdings. .”

Osamu Suzuki, a little old man, seemed very shrewd. He didn't reject Tao Xi directly, but kept explaining that he and Old Shay had been friends for many years.

Just these few words over and over made Tao Xi a little confused.

A little impatient, Tao Xi directly stated his bottom line: "1:1 share exchange, I have 4% of the shares of Nicaragua Mining Group, and I hope to get 4% of your company's shares. "

"2%, I can accept 2%, Suzuki Group is a family business, 2% of the shares is enough for you to have a certain say in the group."

"The Japanese economy is very dangerous recently. I hope Suzuki Group can diversify. I will not sell like others."

When Tao Xi heard that the little old man was a sensible person, he was neither cheating nor deceitful, and he came up very directly but was a bit long-winded.

However, he has gained a lot tonight. Whether it is Reuters or Coca-Cola, these are companies that are usually out of reach with a lantern!

Now he is a rich man, the size of Tao Xi, right?
Tao Xi looked at the several contracts signed successively in his hand and looked out the window at the bustling night scene on the streets of London with satisfaction.

"There are still 2% left, and I don't know if there will be any unexpected gains from tonight's banquet!"

Tao Xi called Pierre who had been waiting for him at the door, and Pierre who walked into the house had already prepared a brand new custom suit.

"Mr. Taoxi, here is the suit for you."
