"What's wrong? Are you curious about me? "Seeing Harry Potter's surprised eyes, Boss Jia laughed.
"No …" Harry Potter shook his head, but there was no credibility.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Jia Yapeng. I am a Hua Xia, and I am also the founder and controller of this foundation." Jia Yapeng said lightly. Harry Potter nodded vigorously.
"Do you know why I chose you as the general manager?" Jia Yapeng suddenly asked.
"I don't know …" Harry Potter shook his head vigorously again. He really didn't know why.
"Because I need a trustworthy person who also knows the inside story of Wall Street to manage my assets. Unfortunately, it is not easy to find a trustworthy person on Wall Street!"
"I've seen your information. You've worked for 17 famous financial funds on Wall Street. Five of them were fired because you refused to sell those junk funds to the elderly, the unemployed, and other people who rely on a small amount of money to live!" Zhang Zian said.
"People like you are rare on Wall Street. I admire you!" Boss Jia laughed.
"But sir, in this case, I can't help you make money!" Harry Potter said with his head down.
"No, only you can help me make money!" Boss Jia patted Harry Potter on the shoulder and said, "I am not interested in the American stock market or any financial market. I am only interested in those physical companies."
"So your next important task is to help me buy or invest in some companies in the United States. I don't need you to help me attack, because I will control the target of the attack. You just need to help me defend, defend the shares of the companies I buy, and guard against the pairs of greedy eyes, pairs of eyes and conspiracies that try to take away the benefits from our foundation! "
"I need you to defend. Do you understand what I mean?" Jia Yapeng said.
"I understand!" Harry Potter nodded excitedly, because he finally understood what his task in the whole foundation was.
This task sounded a bit ridiculous. Since the shares had been bought, no one could buy them unless the foundation was willing to trade. Why did he need to defend?
This was because there were many loopholes in the world, especially when it came to finance. Although the shares could not be transferred, the actual controller of the company could transfer the company's assets through hidden means.
Or, they could dilute the shares by introducing other investors. Anyway, those who really know how to play can use hundreds of ways to play those investors to death and take down the shares in the hands of those investors legitimately.
Boss Jia did not understand these things, nor did he have the time to pay attention to the United States market every day. Therefore, he needed a guy who was proficient in all these schemes to help him protect the foundation's shares and wealth.
Therefore, Harry Potter, who was born with a righteous personality and had been on Wall Street for more than 10 years, was the best choice.
As for the connections with Wall Street, what Jia Yapeng wanted was someone who didn't have a good relationship with all the vampires on Wall Street. Otherwise, Wall Street would have a thousand ways to pull Harry Potter over to their side. Maybe the general manager of this foundation would be a trap for our Boss Jia.
"Boss, did you come here to buy some companies?" Harry Potter asked excitedly.
"That's right! I will give you the first task! " After Jia Yapeng finished, he handed a small note to Harry Potter and said, "I will give you three days to get me all the details of the companies on this note."
"Yes!" Harry Potter excitedly took the note and looked at it. He found that there were five names on it, "Marvel, Nvidia, Qualcomm, Apple, AMD."
"Why these five companies?" Seeing the names of these five companies, Harry Potter was a little dazed.
Among these five companies, there were well-known companies in the United States, such as Marvel and Apple, and there were also companies whose names he had never heard of, such as NVIDIA.
If these companies were all in the high-tech electronics industry, then the addition of Marvel would be very embarrassing.
Although he didn't know why his boss listed the names of these five companies, Harry Potter knew that if he couldn't complete this task in three days, then his position as the general manager wouldn't be stable.
Therefore, Harry Potter burst into an unprecedented passion. After sending Boss Jia to the hotel, he began the process of frantically collecting information and organizing it.
Three days later, with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, Harry Potter finally put a detailed and complete information in front of Boss Jia.
Jia Yapeng looked at the thick information of more than 100 pages, and a brief information of only five pages, but all the essence was gathered together. Boss Jia was somewhat glad that he chose Harry Potter as the general manager.
Boss Jia spent a whole day reading through almost all the information. He had a certain understanding of the five companies in his heart.
Among them, the most miserable was undoubtedly Marvel. After Ron Pereman bought it in 1989, it began its tragic life.
Pereman was a typical Wolf of Wall Street, only thinking about making money. Under his operation, Marvel went public in 1991, which sounded like a good thing.
But Pereman used the funds after Marvel went public to buy a large number of toy companies and small and medium-sized publishers. But these toy companies and small and medium-sized publishers were actually Pereman's tricks.
Because these large and small companies were secretly controlled by Pereman, or he spent a lot of money to buy these companies. The funds raised by Marvel through going public were quickly squandered, and these funds naturally fell into Pereman's hands. Marvel got a lot of shell companies, or assets that were heavily in debt.
All of this made Marvel heavily in debt, and the funds from going public were quickly squandered.
That wasn't all. After squeezing the value of Marvel on the stock market, Pereman made a move on Marvel's superheroes.
It was said that there was such a real story. After Pereman bought Marvel, a reporter once asked him why he bought Marvel.
At that time, Pereman answered like this, "Because I watched Superman grow up, and I love Superman deeply, so I want to buy Marvel and let Superman's story shine again!"
Pereman's words were said to make countless Marvel fans kneel on the spot, and they couldn't help but cry, as if they were lamenting that Marvel had finally ushered in a savior, which made Pereman somewhat proud.
But after Pereman bought Marvel and got the details of Marvel's assets, this guy was furious, because he found that Superman was not a Marvel superhero at all.
Although this story was very funny, and it also fully showed that Pereman actually knew nothing about comics and Marvel, Pereman was very clear that superheroes were actually Marvel's greatest wealth. After decades of comics accumulation, these superheroes had unimaginable popularity in the United States, just like the popularity of Journey to the West in Hua Xia. These were Marvel's greatest wealth.
So Marvel began to sell the rights of these heroes, and the adaptation rights of important characters such as the Fantastic Four, X-Men, Daredevil, and Hulk were bought by bigger movie companies in the world.
As for the rights of other superheroes that were sold, there were countless of them.
And the shareholders in the United States were not fools, and Pereman's means were quickly seen through. Marvel's stock price began to plummet, and finally fell to the point of less than one dollar per share. At this time, the total market value of Marvel in the United States stock market was only 50 million dollars.
And Marvel's stock couldn't be sold at all, because no one was willing to buy this rubbish stock. According to the original historical development, by 1996, Marvel would have completely collapsed because they couldn't continue to operate. They would eventually go bankrupt and be sold by Pereman.
