Chapter 558

In the numerous office buildings in Manhattan, there are many world-famous financial companies, but there are also countless small companies like Blackstone. Every day, investors with dreams hope to prove their abilities in the world financial center I hope I can show my revenge. But the competition here is cruel. Many companies disappear without even raising a ripple, as if they never existed.

KKR group is an example of these small companies. It took only ten years for KKR to become famous. The three founders of KKR group tell the elites of Wall Street with their own experience that if you don't want to spend all your life making huge profits for the five major investment institutions, such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch and Lehman Brothers, then come out and start your own business. As long as you can find the right way, even if you are just a small company, you can still let Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley come to you.

When EVA's assistant handed her business card to the staff of KKR company, the reply was: "sorry, Ms. EVA, because you didn't make an appointment in advance, so we can't receive you today."

"Never mind, I can wait!" EVA said, suppressing her anger.

"Are you sure you want to wait? Our partners' schedules are full. In the conference room over there, you see the vice president of Bear Stearns. In addition, there are some other companies that want to discuss cooperation with us. I think it's really inappropriate today. Let's do this. We'll leave your contact information until our three partners' schedules are free, When shall we contact you again? " The receptionist of KKR company politely orders her to leave. EVA swears that she has never been so humble since she went into business, but now she wants to bow to KKR, a small company.

EVA held back her anger and said, "thank you very much. It seems that we didn't come at the right time." EVA almost got up and left the conference room. His assistant picked up her bag and ran after her.

It's been two weeks since the news of the leveraged acquisition of Motorola by KKR came out by the news agency of Pember. During this time, EVA has been in New York to contact the major investment companies, including Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, Deutsche Bank, Merrill Lynch, and even Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, who are standing behind at & T. However, all these big investment banks are not willing to fight against KKR group. Instead, they persuade EVA to sell her equity and become a subsidiary of at & T. They look at Yota communications like a dying prey. Just a few years ago, when Yota Telecom first announced its strategic cooperation with at & T, investment companies hoping to help Yota Telecom IPO flooded the parking lot of Yota headquarters in the heat of more than 40 degrees.

EVA completely felt the ruthlessness of capital during this period of time. When you don't need these people, they pester you like flies. When you really need something, these people ignore you. There seems to be only one way for EVA now, that is to allow new investors to enter the board of Yota communications.

EVA didn't tell shariosha what happened to her. She just learned the news from Karim and Donia. Xie liaosha has been contacting the investment institutions in the city of England all this time, hoping to find the investment institutions that can fight against Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. However, Yota's current situation has been known to investors in the Atlantic Ocean. Even though Xie liaosha has a good friendship with them, he thinks of fighting against Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, They lose confidence. Now even Bear Stearns, Motorola's biggest investor, is inclined to give up iridium in favor of at & T's network plan. Motorola is the main supplier of at & T, and investing in at & T can make them live better. With the tacit approval of Motorola's management, the development of iridium has been stagnated.

Mikhail's financing action in Japan is also not smooth, because Japan only recently adopted EVA's second generation mobile communication technology to establish its own communication network, and EVA's iridium plan is tantamount to grabbing business with Japanese telecom operators, so Japan's financial institutions are naturally reluctant to help at this time. However, Japanese consortia are also interested in Yota's technology, so it's OK to acquire it, but no need to cooperate. Although the Japanese don't do things so directly, Mikhail is still in the dust.

At this point, things have gone beyond shariosha's expectations. Yota communication has always been the pride of shariosha and EVA. Although the technology of this company comes from the Altay communication system of the Soviet Union, Xie liaosha has invested a lot of resources. Now the second generation communication system, which is the only one in the world in technology, has been successfully developed. However, in the process of facing the market, Xie liaosha has encountered such great difficulties, which Xie liaosha has never imagined.

He is constantly looking for new investors, but it is almost impossible for him to find a big consortium in the world that can compete with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. After the signing of the "Plaza Agreement" in Japan, Xie liaosha has invested most of his working capital, including the Foreign Trade Bank of the Soviet Union, into the foreign exchange market, and now conservatively estimates that he has made a profit of about 1.5 trillion US dollars. Perhaps this fund can be compared with the scale of funds managed by Goldman Sachs, but in terms of financing ability, there are also large amounts of funds including Canadian pension fund, Dutch national pension and other institutions behind Goldman Sachs, whose clients are all over the world's richest class, Even the royal families in the Middle East are happy to leave their wealth to Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. In this relationship, Mr. shagliaosha can't compete with Goldman Sachs at all. In fact, not to mention Xie liaosha, even the governments of most countries in the world are not rivals of Goldman Sachs.

If Xie liaosha's Gorky system wants to compete with old-fashioned plutocrats like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, there is no chance at all. Just as she was still pondering over how to deal with it, ATT finally gathered her own butcher's knife. On the last trading day before the Independence Day holiday in 1986, at & T announced that it had reached an agreement with KKR group to buy all the Motorola shares in KKR group at a high price. Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley announced their support for at & T's network projects. KKR became the biggest winner in the deal as a black knight with bad intentions.
