The expression of the interests of these three interest groups is actually the expression of the interests of the American political economy. The interest group headed by First Citigroup is actually the backend of the two major parties, the Republican Party, which takes turns in power in the United States. The interest group headed by the Morgan Group is responsible for The backstage of the Democratic Party, as for the interest groups led by the Rothschild family consortium, is divided into two factions supporting the Democratic and Republican parties respectively.
On the surface, the three major interest groups seem to be divided into two parties to fight against each other. In fact, the interests of the three major interest groups are closely intertwined with each other, and have become inseparable. reached the point.
Therefore, American politics is actually the expression of the interests of these wealthy and powerful financial groups. No matter which of the two parties comes to power, it represents the overall interests of these three interest groups. The so-called two-party politics in the United States is just made to From what the public can see, their backgrounds are actually the same.
When the Zhao Zhenbei brothers launched the acquisition of Jardine Matheson Group in the UK, several big shots gathered in the conference hall of a luxury five-star hotel in New York, USA. They were discussing how to deal with the new Hong Kong Star Investment. The rising new power of the wealthy conglomerates.
These big shots are all well-known business celebrities. Basically, these people are representatives of members of interest groups dominated by the Morgan consortium. Among them are Mak Jin-hsien, director of Morgan Stanley Bank and chairman of the operating committee, and Cleveland Jerry Ferriton, chairman of Firestone Tire & Rubber Company, the backbone of the consortium, Harry Mellon, chairman of Alcoa Company of the Mellon consortium, etc. These people represent the will of the entire interest group.
In addition to conducting the customary year-end summary of interest groups, the more important reason for these representatives to gather in New York is to discuss how to deal with Hong Kong Star Investment, an emerging consortium from Hong Kong, Asia.
"Everyone knows! Last week, Hong Kong Star Investment, a Chinese consortium from Hong Kong, conducted a series of business mergers and acquisitions in the United States and acquired several companies, including large companies such as Texas Instruments with a market value of more than 10 billion US dollars. There are also medium-sized companies such as General Motors' Houston Aircraft Manufacturing Company and Opel Motors with a market value of around 5 billion, and there are also some small companies like Qualcomm with a market value of 1 to 2 billion, with total assets involved up to more than 30 billion US dollars. !¡±
The first person to speak was Mack from Morgan Stanley Bank. Hong Kong Star Investment used 30% of General Motors' stock to manipulate General Motors' valuation, and ultimately forced General Motors to sell off Houston Aircraft Manufacturing Company and Opel Cars. This matter made the Morgan family Feeling very angry, Mak Jinheng initiated a project discussion for Hong Kong Star Investment.
"According to the top-secret information I obtained from people embedded in the FBI, it clearly shows that the history of the Hong Kong Star Investment Company began in July 1985! They raised approximately 280 million in funds Entered the foreign exchange market and began to speculate on the Japanese currency, taking advantage of the appreciation of the Japanese currency and earning approximately more than 20 billion U.S. dollars."
"While speculating on the Japanese yen, Hong Kong Star Investment also speculated on the mark in the foreign exchange market. In addition, it invested US$10 billion in the Japanese stock market. This investment plan lasted until the new year. In the past two years, , Hong Kong Star Investment earned approximately US$70 billion in capital! The return on investment reached a profit of nearly 300 times!¡±
"Starting today in August, Hong Kong Star Group began to enter the U.S. futures market and short-sold tens of billions of stock market index futures in more than 20 trading days over four weeks in August. Most of these futures were traded by some Large and medium-sized financial investors took over. As a result, until after the Black Week in October, all short-selling index futures contracts of Hong Kong Star Investment were settled in advance due to insufficient margins by their opponents. Hong Kong Star Investment successfully withdrew from the U.S. futures market. ! It is estimated that the capital they earned this time reached at least 200 billion US dollars!"
"Since 1986, Hong Kong Star Investment has begun to acquire shares of some potential listed companies in the US stock market, including companies such as IBM and Microsoft in the IT industry, and others such as Texas Instruments, Qualcomm and General Motors. , basically all of them were bought in large quantities during the stock market crash in October this year!¡±
"According to incomplete statistics, Hong Kong Star Investment now holds more than 100 billion U.S. dollars worth of shares in more than 40 listed companies in the United States! It has clearly threatened the interests of our group! Not only that, according to the data, we The political opponents of the Republican Party, Citigroup, the backstage group, have secretly invited Hong Kong Star Group to join their consortium, and Hong Kong Star Group has become the fourth largest shareholder of Citigroup."
¡°All these signs indicate that if we still can¡¯t find a way to curb the momentum of Hong Kong Star Investment, I¡¯m afraid it will grow back to a level that is dangerous.To the point where it affects the fundamental interests of our group! Therefore, I propose to gather the strength of the group and carry out a series of crackdowns against Hong Kong Star Investment to curb the growth of this Chinese consortium and prevent the group from suffering more loss of profits in the future! "
Mack's proposal was more due to the pressure from the Morgan consortium behind him. The companies acquired by Hong Kong Star Investment include Texas Instruments, which is in the semiconductor industry, and Qualcomm, which is in the electronic communications industry. Except for the Houston Aircraft Manufacturing Company and Opel, which are from the Except for the acquisition by General Motors, it basically has no direct relationship with the entire interest group.
As for the U.S. company stocks held by Hong Kong Star Investment, except for one or two that belong to the small and medium-sized machinery manufacturing industry, most of the others are emerging technology-based companies. Basically, the Morgan-type consortia are some There are not many old consortiums with a history of hundreds of years that invest in technology-based fields, and there are not many points of intersection between the two.
Therefore, in fact, Hong Kong Star Investment has not seriously threatened the interest groups of their faction, as Mak Jinheng said, and it is not even a threat. Mak Jinheng's words did not Get everyone's approval.
"Mr. Mak, I'm afraid you are exaggerating. As far as I know, the two brothers Zhao Zhendong and Zhao Zhennan from Hong Kong Star Investment have now become American and British citizens respectively. Their interests basically have no conflict with ours. Otherwise, First Citigroup The consortium will not invite them to join! Since there is no big conflict of interest, why should we be aggressive?" Someone immediately put forward different opinions on Mack's proposal.
Mak Jinheng smiled and said: "This Hong Kong Star Investment can have 200 billion US dollars in assets. I'm afraid a considerable part of it is earned from the assets that have shrunk by everyone here? How can you say that it has no interest in us?" What about the conflict? Besides, having earned a return of nearly a thousand times in more than two years, Hong Kong Star Investment must have a very clever financial investment group planning it secretly! Aren¡¯t you interested in the members of this financial investment group? " (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
