Chapter 104 Black Samurai
In the office buildings in Manhattan, New York, although there are many world-renowned financial companies, there are also countless small companies like Blackstone. Every day, investors with dreams hope to prove their abilities in the center of the world's finance. , I hope I can show my revenge. But the competition here is brutal, and many companies disappear without even making a ripple, as if they never existed.
The kkr group is a role model for these small companies. It only took ten years for kkr to go from being unknown to being famous. The three founders of the KKR Group used their own experiences to tell the elites on Wall Street that if you don’t want to spend all your energy on serving the Big Five such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch, and Lehman Brothers, Investment institutions earn huge profits, so come out and start your own business. As long as you can find the right way, even if you are only a small company, you can still get Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to come to you.
When Eva's assistant handed her business card to the staff of KKR, the other party's reply was: "I'm sorry, Ms. Eva, because you didn't make an appointment in advance, so we can't receive you today."
"It's okay, I can wait!" Eva said, suppressing her anger.
"Are you really sure you want to wait? The schedules of our company's partners are already full. You see, the vice president of Bear Stearns is sitting in the conference room over there. Let's discuss cooperation, I think today is really inappropriate, how about this, we will leave your contact information, and when our three partners' schedules are free, we will contact you again?" kkr The company's reception staff tactfully issued an order to evict customers. Eva swore that she had never been so low-key since she was in business, but now she wanted to bow her head to KKR, a small company.
Eva suppressed her anger and said to the other party: "Then thank you, it seems that we came at the wrong time!" Eva almost stood up and left the conference room, his assistant picked up her Carrying the bag, he hurriedly chased him out.
It has been two weeks since Bloomberg News broke the news that kkr leveraged to buy Motorola. During this time, Eva has been in New York to contact major investment companies, Bear Stearns, Lehman Brothers, Deutsche Bank, Merrill Lynch, and even Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, who are behind AT&T, have visited. However, nothing was achieved. All these big investment banks were unwilling to confront the KKR Group. Instead, they persuaded Eva to sell her shares and become a subsidiary of AT&T. They look at the yota comm like a dying prey. And just a few years ago, when Yota Communications first announced a strategic cooperation with AT&T, the investment companies that hoped to help Yota Communications POS crowded the parking lot of Yota Headquarters despite the high temperature of more than 40 degrees.
During this period of time, Eva has completely felt the ruthlessness of capital. When you don't need these people, these people are like annoying flies. When you really need something, these people will ignore you. ignore you. There seems to be only one way for Eva now, and that is to allow new investors to enter the board of directors of Yota Communications.
Eva did not tell Seryozha what had happened to her. She only learned about Seryozha's news from Karim and Tonya. During this period of time, Seryozha has been contacting investment institutions in the British City of Finance, hoping to find investment institutions that can counter Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, but Yota's current situation has already been known to investors on the Atlantic side. No matter how good the relationship between Sergei and them was, they lost confidence at the thought of confronting Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Now even Bear Stearns, Motorola's largest investor, is inclined to abandon the Iridium plan and choose AT&T's network plan instead.
Motorola was originally a major supplier of AT&T, and investing in AT&T could make them live better. So with the acquiescence of Motorola's management, the development of Iridium slowly came to a standstill.
Mikhail's financing operation in Japan was also not smooth, because Japan adopted Eva's second-generation mobile communication technology to establish its own communication network not long ago, and Eva's Iridium project is no different from Japan's telecommunications Operators are grabbing business, so Japanese financial institutions are naturally unwilling to help at this time. However, the Japanese consortium is also interested in the technology in Yota's hands, and the acquisition is possible, but the cooperation is not discussed. Although the Japanese would not be so straightforward in doing things, Mikhail still touched his nose.
The matter has reached this point, which has exceeded Seryozha's expectations. Yota communication has always been the pride of Seryozha and Eva. Although the technology of this company comes from the Altai communication system of the Soviet Union, Seryozha has invested a lot of resources. Now the second-generation communication system, which is technologically unrivaled in the world, has been successfully developed, but in the process of facing the market, it encountered such a problem. Great difficulties, such difficulties have never been imagined by Seryozha.
Seryozha is constantly looking for new investors, but it is almost impossible to find a large consortium that can compete with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley in the world. After signing the contract in Japan, Seryozha has invested most of the working capital including the VTB Bank in the foreign exchange market, and it is now conservatively estimated that he has made a profit of about 1.5 trillion U.S. dollars. Perhaps this amount of funds can be compared with the scale of funds managed by Goldman Sachs, but in terms of financing capabilities, behind Goldman Sachs are large funds including Canadian pension funds, Dutch national pensions and other institutions, and their customers are all over the world The wealthiest class, even the royal families in the Middle East, are willing to hand over their wealth to Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley. Under this relationship, Sergey could not fight against Goldman Sachs at all. In fact, let alone Seryozha, even the governments of most countries in the world may not be Goldman Sachs' opponents.
If Seryozha's Gorky Department wants to go head-to-head with veteran chaebols like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, they have no chance at all. While Seryozha was still thinking hard about how to deal with it, AT&T, which was sharpening its knives, finally gathered its own butcher knives. On the last trading day before the American Independence Day holiday in 1986, AT&T announced that it had reached an acquisition agreement with the KKR Group to acquire all Motorola shares held by the KKR Group at a high price. At the same time, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley Announcing support for AT&T's network project. KKR became the biggest winner in this transaction as a malicious black warrior. ...
