On Wall Street, he's just a minor player.This little trick of cutting leeks from retail investors can never be called a "wolf".

The truly recognized Wolf of Wall Street is Carl Icahn, a hedge fund boss who is as famous as Soros, and was once named "the most important investor in the United States" by "Time" magazine.

On Wall Street, he is a Thanos-like existence, a "vicious beast" that all listed companies in the United States are afraid of.

Not only can he make listed companies make concessions and cut their flesh for profit, but he can even manipulate the company's strategy and direction.He once forced the founder and CEO of Yahoo, Jerry Yang, to step down, shattered Hewlett-Packard's tens of billions of privatization plans, and single-handedly promoted the split of Motorola's mobile business, which eventually led to the decline of the giant and made a profit of 13 billion Dollar.

Like Belfort, Icahn began his Wall Street career as a stock trader.

"They are like magicians who turn stones into gold, making miracles happen overnight, and their strength, ambition and passion converge brilliantly in astronomical numbers."

In the 60s, Icahn walked into the New York Stock Exchange for the first time and was shocked by the sight in front of him.

Here, he made $[-] in just two months.

For an average family in Queens, New York, that's two years' worth of Icahn's father's income.

From then on, he started his own financial life!

In [-], TWA planned to spin off its hotel, catering and airline businesses.

At that time, TWA’s equity was extremely dispersed, and there was no actual controller; the company owned multiple domestic and international routes, aircraft fleets and land assets, but its efficiency was low, its management was poor, and its assets were seriously undervalued.

All of this was closely watched by Icahn.

But at first, Icahn did not startle the snake.In various companies and identities, he frequently bought TWA shares in small amounts on the secondary market.

Just ten days before touching the public red line of 5.00% of the shareholding, Icahn began to buy frantically, rapidly increasing the shareholding ratio to .

Then, he completes the absolute takeover.

At first, this guy used various methods to increase the company's market value, and then by issuing junk bonds and increasing leverage, he realized the privatization of the snake swallowing elephant and obtained [-]% of the company's equity.

In the process, he made a personal profit of US$469 billion, but left a debt hole of US$54 billion for the company.

He then began selling the most profitable routes to competitors, nearly draining the company.

Afterwards, the company filed for bankruptcy, and he became the company's largest creditor. He took advantage of the loopholes in the agreement and sold the company's air tickets at a low price. It was not until [-] that TWA announced its acquisition and completely withdrew from the stage of history.

Before and after, this guy made a total of more than 20 billion US dollars in profits from this company.

A total vampire!

That's the impression Carl Icahn gives.

And now, he's actually eyeing Facebook!

The moment he heard the news, Dong Chenxi felt that he felt uneasy all of a sudden.

"This, this can't be true, can it?"

Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng and asked.

Zhao Fusheng shrugged: "Tan Kaixuan called me. He also heard about it, but I guess it is actually possible."

Dong Chenxi remained silent. She and Zhao Fusheng both knew that the value of facial makeup was too high.

Speaking of which, many Wall Street tycoons actually understand that once this company goes public, it will definitely create more value.

This is also the reason why Zhao Fusheng insisted on a hierarchical shareholding structure at the beginning, allowing Mark Zuckerberg to have absolute voting rights to control the entire company.

Because Zhao Fusheng is too aware of the methods of those people on Wall Street.

These guys are devils who can give up everything for the sake of profit. They don't have anything else in their eyes.

If a company is controlled by those financial giants on Wall Street, it will inevitably be squeezed out of the greatest residual value, and then be mercilessly abandoned.

As for long-term benefits?

Sorry, in the hearts of the bigwigs on Wall Street, no interest is as important as the dollar bills in their hands.

It was precisely because of this that Zhao Fusheng hesitated so much.

To be honest, he doesn't want to confront the crowd on Wall Street just yet.

It's not that I'm afraid of them, but because Zhao Fusheng thinks it's meaningless.

Now that he is planning to retire, does he still want to be tough with others because of his face?

The most important thing is that this company is not his, but Mark Zuckerberg's.

Making wedding dresses for others is not what Zhao Fusheng likes to do.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fusheng glanced at Dong Chenxi, and said calmly, "Otherwise, let's forget it."

Chapter 855 I'll be there

"never mind?"

Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng in surprise.

She didn't expect that because of the attention of a Wall Street tycoon, Su Xinghe actually wanted to give up further ideas.

"That's Facebook. Even if we only increase our stake by [-]%, it will be billions of dollars."

Dong Chenxi said to Zhao Fusheng unwillingly.

She is not so greedy for money, and she also understands that for Zhao Fusheng, the current wealth must be enough for several lifetimes, even for his children and grandchildren.

Including herself, after Zhao Fusheng gave her [-]% of future investment shares, Dong Chenxi also knew that she was not short of money.

However, this is a way to prove your worth!

The more successful Facebook is, the more Facebook shares the future investment owns, which proves that her and Zhao Fusheng's judgment is correct.

This is what Dong Chenxi really cares about.

Zhao Fusheng glanced at her, and then asked back: "In your opinion, can we fight against that guy?"

Dong Chenxi nodded: "Of course."

This is from the bottom of my heart. Although he is a Wall Street tycoon, his future investment will not be the same as Wuxia Amon in the past. Based on the available funds alone, Dong Chenxi is confident that he can survive under anyone's attack.

To put it bluntly, she is very confident now.

Zhao Fusheng sighed, looked at Dong Chenxi, and said after a long while: "Sometimes, doing something is not only for achieving a single purpose, but there may not necessarily be a conflict between the purpose and the purpose. It's like our This approach seems to be retreating, but from another perspective, it is also to protect our own interests."

Dong Chenxi frowned slightly, raised his head, looked at Zhao Fusheng and said, "You mean to advance by retreating?"
