Rebirth of Hong Kong's tycoons, shorting Eagle Sauce

Robert has been living a good life recently.

Cayman Capital took advantage of the stock market crash to make a lot of money, making the company's reputation in Wall Street.

The capital pool controlled by it expanded again, and even attracted the stock god Buffett.

The stock god Buffett injected 800 million personal investment into the Cayman Fund, enjoying a high annualized return of 30%.

This also made the funds controlled by the Cayman Fund reach an unprecedented 8 billion US dollars!

In terms of capital scale, Cayman Capital can already be called a medium-sized financial institution.

But compared with the top ten investment banks on Wall Street, there is still a long way to go.

What makes Robert happiest is that he has reached a certain cooperation agreement with Proton Fund and Tiger Fund.

The three major hedge funds formed an offensive and defensive alliance, and the leader is naturally Cayman Capital, which has the most abundant funds.

We are all hedge funds, why should you be the boss.

Before, Proton Fund and Tiger Fund were not convinced, but after the stock market crash broke out suddenly, everything changed.

Cayman Capital predicted the crisis and started to eat meat. The two short sellers didn't even get to drink the broth because they entered the market late.

The young couple immediately realized that Cayman Capital was a big thigh.

It would be nice to follow it and drink some soup.

Robert was a little flattered by a group of senior financial experts.

But he didn't forget his boss's instructions.

If you have money, you must invest it and let money make money.

"Boss, we can obviously buy most of Huanghe Industrial, why don't we take this opportunity to buy more?"

"Robert, don't worry, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. It's a bit too early for us to take the initiative to provoke a battle for equity. It will only make us fall into the quagmire of business wars and the funds cannot be used in the most reasonable place."

Robert agreed with his boss's statement. He was curious about where the boss's next move would be.

"Send an investment team to start acquisition negotiations with Husky Energy of Maple Country!"

Husky Energy? The oil giant of Maple Country?

Although he didn't know why the boss was suddenly interested in an oil company, as a subordinate, he knew not to ask too much.

"Yes, you not only have to buy Husky Energy, we are going to launch an acquisition of oil giants around the world. As long as the price is right, we can buy all those who are interested in selling."

The price of $10 oil will not last long. In another year or two, the price will soon rise to $30 again.

In his memory, Li bought 90% of Husky Energy's shares in 1991.

And he enjoyed the feast of rising oil prices all the way thereafter.

This transaction is also called "one of the greatest investments in his life."

At this time, Wang Lei controlled more funds than Li, and he wanted to use the white gloves of Cayman Capital to become a world-class oil tycoon in the shortest time.

"By the way, ask New World Film and Television if they are interested in selling their Marvel comics."

Robert couldn't keep up with his boss's thinking. He was still planning the oil industry in the last second, and jumped to the comics industry in the next second.

Robert still has some impression of Marvel Comics. He also liked to read comics when he was a child, but he is not a fan of Marvel Comics.

He prefers DC's Superman and Batman.

DC Comics has always been the overlord of the comics industry in the United States. They brought Superman to the big screen in 1978.

And the market share of Marvel Comics has always been far behind DC Comics.

If Robert really wants to layout the comics industry, he is more inclined to directly acquire DC Comics.

This is a typical acquisition thinking of a large investment bank.

"Boss, how about considering DC?"

"Robert, I am more optimistic about the future of Marvel Comics. It will establish its position in the film and television industry on the big screen, and compared with DC Comics, it is cheaper!"

Marvel Comics is the predecessor of Marvel Comics.

Yes, the current Marvel Company is very cheap, so cheap that it is outrageous.

Marvel, which will be worth 400 billion US dollars in the future, is only offered at a mere 80 million US dollars at this time.

In 1968, Marvel changed hands for the first time, and founder Martin sold it for 15 million US dollars.

Last year, in 1986, New World Pictures acquired Marvel for $46 million.

This Hollywood company originally planned to learn from DC and start making Marvel's own superhero movies.

Unfortunately, New World's investors suffered a stock market crash.

If history had not been unexpected.

The 1987 U.S. stock market crash forced the company to sell Marvel to its next owner, the Andrews Group, for $82 million in 1988.

Ronald Perelman, the owner of the Andres Group, isAn expert in leveraged buyouts.

Buying and selling at the same time is his usual style.

Robert saw his boss was so confident, he immediately responded:

"Okay, boss, I promise to complete these two acquisitions and give you a satisfactory answer!"

Thinking of Ronald, a leveraged competitor, Wang Lei reminded him:

"You must act quickly, I support you to acquire at a premium."

In Wang Lei's mind, the future value of Marvel cannot be considered. If Ronald, a speculator, still picks peaches, he cannot accept it.
