I Am a Nobleman in England

May I ask Mr. Bolin, how is the negotiation going? "

"Mr. Bolin, how much do you personally contribute to this acquisition?"

"There are reports that after you acquire the coastal power plant, you will cut costs and improve short-term operating efficiency through a large number of layoffs, so that you can go public for cash..."

. . . . . .

When Arthur finished his visit and walked out of the office building of the coastal power plant, he was surrounded by reporters squatting. Listening to various kind or sharp questions, Arthur stopped indifferently and watched. Still impatiently blocked by the bodyguards, the reporters scrambling for a while said lightly.

"First of all, thank you for your concern. The negotiation went smoothly. The framework agreement has been signed and the acquisition process is proceeding smoothly."

The reporters at the scene calmed down as Arthur spoke for the interview. They listened attentively to Arthur’s answers, while the corners of Arthur’s mouth rose slightly and continued: “As for the question about whether the coastal power plant will be listed. , I have no way to answer you. After all, the power plant has not yet completed the acquisition. Of course, any company that wants to grow and develop cannot be separated from the support of funds. Listing is a great choice, but that is the future. ."

"Some economists think that your acquisition is a thorough speculation, a standard Wall Street barbarian, a speculation. What you bring to the coastal power plants will only be serious debts. Wait until the listing circle is complete. , You will abandon the power plant without hesitation, what do you want to respond to?"

"Haha, barbarian? Thank you for being so worthy of me." Facing the troubles of journalists with bright eyes and constantly making troubles, Arthur was not angry. To be honest, in the past few days, as he announced his plans to acquire Coastal Power After the factory information, he has been reported on the financial pages of major media.

The titles of young speculators, snake-tuning elephants, careerists, etc. are all given to their heads. Of course, it is not ruled out that someone is behind the BO to help the flames. The world is like this, even if the young newcomer Arthur has no enemies, There are always people who jump out for various purposes and want to step on a few feet.

"In my impression, all the so-called'barbarians' are extremely smart and ambitious, better at and more willing to take risks. They are all excellent strategy strategists, who know how to judge the situation and make the best use of the situation. They are all real business circles. Elite.

As for me, I'm just a newcomer in the business world, and I'm still learning everything, just on the road! "

Arthur smiled calmly and confidently and talked, drew a'kakaka' camera shutter sound, "As for the snake swallowing elephant or the careerist, I can only say that the capital is the savage, the strongest lion. Is the king of the forest, this is the law of the jungle.

Similarly, the power of capital has promoted technological innovation to a certain extent and optimized the allocation of resources. From these processes, the world has seen a period of rapid development of world economic history, a brilliant financial city, and one that controls the lifeline of world finance. Wall Street! Thank you--"

Having said this, Arthur stopped paying attention to the reporters who were increasingly asking questions. Under the **** of the bodyguards, he got into the car and turned to look at the reporters who were constantly tapping the window glass and shouting, Arthur Just smiled slightly.

Some people say that leveraged buyout is not only a capital war, but also a public opinion war. Arthur not only had to easily win the coastal power plant, but also to win beautifully. Through this success, he left a deep impression on the world. In addition to telling the business community that Arthur Bolin is coming, he also Create yourself a personal set of business genius.

Fame seems to be a vain thing, not only can satisfy one's vanity, sometimes it can really bring benefits to oneself.

Sure enough, as Arthur had expected, the major media rushed to report the content of his interview the next day, but Arthur looked at the controversial headlines, his face was uncertain and at the same time, he also thoroughly experienced the innocence of the British media. There is no lower limit, and the endless reports that are not surprising, almost killed him.

"Is it a business genius or arrogant ignorance?"

"Future business giants or harm others?"

"Be careful, the young barbarian is knocking on the door!"

"A 21-year-old billionaire who has just hit the road!"

Especially the title of "The Sun" is undoubtedly the most hateful, "I am a billionaire, I have succeeded, do you also match me up?" Since the first report of Arthur, the "Sun" is a rubbish. The tabloids have always been hostile to Arthur, and there are basically no normal positive reports.

Arthur really hated it, but the problem was that there was no way to use it, and in Britain, I don’t know how many people who hated the Sun like Arthur.

"Wait, when the time comes, I will retaliate back with the profit!"

Thinking of the biggest Waterloo crisis between News Corporation and Murdoch, Arthur couldn't help but squinted and sneered.

However, in any case, being able to be reported by many media is a good thing for Arthur, and controversy is undoubtedly a topic, which can keep people discussing and paying attention.

Some people may say that such a high exposure rate is too high-profile?

However, for the West, the more low-key you are, the less capable you are, the less you dare to do business if you don't make friends with you. But the more you can speak, the more you can blow, and the higher the tone, the more they will feel that you are good, dare to do business with you, and are willing to play with you!

Of course, high-profile is bound to pay a price, so Arthur has been upholding high-profile work, low-key life. After all, Arthur also knew that a word of the ancients was good for the country, and a word that was enough to mislead the country.

Entrepreneurs' high-profile image and outstanding words and deeds can indeed play a very good role in promoting and upgrading their own enterprises. However, everything has to wait until enough, otherwise it will be counterproductive.

Therefore, after Arthur handed Angela the subsequent acquisition work, he boarded a plane to London and left Bristol.

Arriving in London and coming out of Heathrow Airport, Arthur once again ran into reporters and paparazzi crouching at the airport. After another tumultuous chaos, he got into the car under the guard of bodyguards and got rid of Entangled.

He also had to sigh, this is the price of high-profile, fame.

However, the benefits are obvious. When he arrived at the investment company in the Financial City and was listening to Smith Jama’s report, he received a call from Barclays CEO Bob Diamond about the acquisition of coastal power plants. , Barclays Bank decided to take over, they will finance Arthur's wholly-owned acquisition.

And this is undoubtedly the good news that Arthur wants to hear most!

"Hehe, Barclays Bank has promised to finance the acquisition of the coastal power plant. In this way, the last trouble will be completely solved." After hanging up the phone, Arthur smiled happily and told the good news. Smith Jama on the opposite side.

"Boss, congratulations." Hearing the good news, Smith Jama also congratulated with joy.

"Hehe, really, I thought Barclays Bank would hesitate for a long time, but I didn't expect to give me an answer so soon." Arthur smiled and said his unexpected feelings.

"...Perhaps because of an American financial report today and a rumor in the City of Finance a few days ago, it may be the key to prompting Barclays Bank to make up its mind." Hearing the surprise of the boss, Smith Jama first started Weiwei. Frowning, after pondering, he said with some guesswork.

"Oh? What reports and rumors?" Arthur asked, aroused by curiosity.

"The rumor is that the Bank of England may announce on the 5th the day after tomorrow that it will expand the money supply to 225 billion pounds. Based on this rumor, Bloomberg also surveyed 60 economists, of which 48 economists expected the UK The Central Bank will announce on the 5th that it will once again expand the scale of loose money by 50 billion pounds.

Although doing so may expose the UK to the risk of overstimulating the economy, asset bubbles may occur, and the pound may depreciate, it will be too late to wait until the full impact of policy measures is revealed before responding.

I think that in the face of the 50 billion pounds that other banks may suddenly add, Barclays Bank may be worried that we will find partners again. After all, the news that you are going to acquire the coastal power plant is no secret.

And if they have conducted an in-depth investigation and understanding of the coastal power plants, they must know that this is a high-quality project with a profit opportunity far greater than the risk for their bank, then their decision will not be difficult to understand! "Smith Jamae said, the more obvious the smile on his face ~www.readwn.com~ So that's it." Arthur also smiled and nodded. As the only bank that rejected the British government's financial assistance in this financial crisis, Barclays Bank. This time the extra 50 billion pounds is still nothing to them, and those other banks that suddenly have a lot of money in their hands will undoubtedly find ways to mobilize these funds. In this way, if Barclays is delayed If you don't give me an answer, maybe I will go to other banks to cooperate.

"If this is the case, then this rumor can basically be confirmed as a fact. Otherwise, Barclays Bank will not be so nervous and so happy. In this way, we can also use this news to do something."

Smith Jama looked at Arthur with an unusually bright gaze, and said with a smile: "Boss, the 10 million pounds left in your hand can be used to operate and speculate on foreign exchange futures."

"Haha..." Arthur shook his head and laughed. "I will give you all the 15 million pounds, and I will leave more than 1 million pounds for emergency. Now it is all right, I am a billionaire, I really have no money."

"Haha." Smith Jama chuckled lightly at Arthur's self-deprecating ridicule, and admired the determination and courage of his own boss.
