Vol 6 Chapter 586: Propaganda war

In the eyes of many people, Feng Yiping, who has been living easily for a while, is not really as seen by the outside world. He is actually very hard. These days, he has been paying close attention to the United States and Wall Street.

Malika has the clearest understanding of this.

In the middle of the night, when she woke up from her sleep, she could always see Feng Yiping answering the phone. It was the same tonight. The night wind blew in from the open window, gentle and comfortable, but the other side of the bed was empty again.

The light squeezed in from the concealed door, and at the same time, there was a faint voice. He could not hear clearly, but he could only hear that he seemed a little happy.

Also, these days, he has been very happy.

She was wrong. Feng Yiping would not be happy, he was excited, "This is really a good show," he laughed, "This should be Fuld's fight to the death,"

"He is really doing everything," Li Ruiyuan said, "Then Mr. Feng, do you think his efforts will be effective?"

"There is no such possibility," Feng Yiping said categorically, browsing the news on the Internet, "His opponent is not an ordinary person."

"However, haha, at this time, it is estimated that many people will be very depressed,"

"Okay, you pay close attention to it, just like that, relax, don't rush, don't grab, be steady,"

"Okay Mr. Feng, you rest early,"

Feng Yiping hung up the phone, but he couldn't feel sleepy for a while. Thinking of something in the United States, he couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Hearing there was no sound outside, Malika walked out in her pajamas, "I'm so happy again, are you making money again?"

"Oh, sorry, I quarreled you again," Feng Yiping said embarrassedly that he was so happy because he was gloating.

"No, I'm used to it," Marika asked with a smile, sitting on Feng Yiping's lap, "So, is it all right now?"

It was okay, but now it’s okay?

Feng Yiping felt that she might be really used to this type of "communication" at this time.

Of course, he actually likes it too.

…………

Wall Street, today it was Goldman Sachs's Lauder's turn to throw the newspaper, "Fuld that bastard!" He scolded fiercely.

But he turned angry. He didn't forget that at this time, there were more important things to do, "Get me the Ministry of Finance," he told his secretary.

The secretary immediately answered the call from Paulson’s office, and the call was quickly connected. Paulson hurriedly said to him, "Wait a minute,"

Lauder heard the calls from many people over there, some of them were still very familiar.

No way, after Paulson took office as Secretary of the Treasury, he also brought many of Goldman Sachs' old departments to the Treasury Department. Therefore, in the United States, there is already a saying of "Goldman Sachs's Treasury Department".

But what did he hear? Paulson was talking to Fuld?

Is he embarrassed to call Paulson?

Fuld was very embarrassed.

There was a newspaper on his desk at this time, and the TV sound was very loud. The two experts were exchanging opinions fiercely, "...can't help anymore, it should have been true to Wall Street...Paulson is here and in the past. When it splits,"

"So, should we let Goldman Sachs use this opportunity to completely clean up opponents like Lehman?"

These two sentences can be said to be the hot spot on newspapers, websites, and TV-Fuld’s request. The related issues were discussed on the TV by the financial column last night, and they were not realized. However, today Early in the morning, this became a hot topic of discussion by experts on TV.

Paulson listened to the voice on TV from Fuld's phone, frowned and said, "Fuld, you must understand the absurdity of those remarks. I am the head of the Ministry of Finance."

"Of course Hank, I understand this very well," Fuld was very sincere, but he cut his heart. Who believes?

"But I still hope that I can meet with you to discuss some issues,"

Paulson didn't have a good face either. Who didn't know that these were your arrangements and that you made preparations for this meeting in advance?

He really didn’t want to see Fuld, but in such an environment of public opinion, it’s really hard to explain, “Of course it’s okay. My office will always be open to you.”

"Okay, see you this afternoon,"

At this time Lauder had the opportunity to speak, "What do you have with him..."

"Okay Lauder," Paulson interrupted him, "Lehman can't keep it, and you're not having a good time. At this time, you have to take care of the overall situation. That's it. I'm very busy now."

Lauder listened to the ticking sound on the phone and walked to the window a little annoyedly, looking in the direction of Lehman Building, Fuld, you old bastard!

…………

In Mumbai, Malika stopped suddenly, holding Feng Yiping's face, "Are you still watching the news?"

Feng Yiping immediately said seriously and angry, "How is it possible?"

"You just watch the news on your computer!"

"What news is more attractive than you?"

"You are... uh," she was speechless.

Because Feng Yiping just hugged her and stood up and walked towards the bedroom, "I think it is necessary to discuss with you about your vilification of me."

But to be honest, he was really a little slippery just now.

Mainly because that guy Fuld has two brushes.

Lehman's public relations department, it can be said that his vision was perfectly achieved.

Today, there are two main aspects to the news on the screen in the United States. On the one hand, Paulson should be real.

The reason for this, except for the baskets smashed by the Wall Street guys, should no longer be paid for by taxpayers' money. Paulson should be responsible for what Goldman Sachs did.

Because of the ravages of subprime mortgages, the current view of the academic community is mainly on two points: first, the lack of supervision of financial derivatives; second, the high leverage of Wall Street.

These two things, speaking of it, are inseparable from Goldman Sachs.

The former co-president of Goldman Sachs, Robert Rubin, first served as chairman of the National Economic Council of the Clinton administration, and then as the 70th U.S. Treasury Secretary from 1995 to 1999.

The bill to abolish the supervision of financial derivatives, the Commodity Exchange Modernization Act, was promoted by him during his tenure. The other promoter was his assistant at the time, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Finance, and he served as the 71st Treasurer after him. The minister is also the current head of the economic aspects of the O'Hare campaign team and Sandberg's mentor, Larry Summers.

The high leverage is exactly what Paulson led Wall Street to victory when he was at the helm of Goldman Sachs. In 2004, he successfully persuaded the US Securities and Exchange Commission to relax the restrictions on the leverage ratio. Since then, Wall Street can finally be exempt from Limited use of high leverage.

This is tantamount to putting the responsibility for this subprime mortgage crisis on Goldman Sachs and Paulson.

Many media have therefore called for Paulson to not appease Wall Street at any rate, but to attack Wall Street...

This is also the reason why Lehman’s public relations officer asked when Fuld set up the task yesterday, because if we only look at this aspect, it would be equivalent to Lehman’s noose for himself and Paulson’s knife on Wall Street. But the next person who needs help is Lehman himself!

Of course Fuld is not that stupid, so the media is still discussing another aspect of the content at the same time: taking a high blooming knife, is this exactly what Paulson wants to do?

He took this opportunity to completely clean up his opponent Lehman, which he failed to solve when he was at the helm of Goldman Sachs.

The struggle between Goldman Sachs and Lehman can be said to have also lasted for hundreds of years.

At the beginning of the last century, at Goldman Sachs, the founder Goldman's family (which is the surname in front of Goldman\\Sachs in Goldman Sachs English, by the way, the last surname, Shengkesi, was another partner when the company was founded, and it was also Goldman. Henry Goldman of the son-in-law’s surname) was in charge, while Lehman Brothers was still headed by Philip Lehman of the Lehman family, Goldman Sachs, who had clients, and the financial work of reconstruction after the Civil War, so some were Lehman with money. , Began a close and seamless cooperation, this cooperation is 30 years old.

During this period, Henry Goldman even married his sister to the Lehman family.

But it was also in the latter part of these 30 years of cooperation, especially after Henry Goldman retired, the two of them had conflicts due to the problem of interest distribution, and finally had to part ways in 1936.

At the time of the breakup, in the hearts of Goldman Sachs, Lehman Brothers would not do business at all. The notion that they are parasites attached to Goldman Sachs has been deeply ingrained and has continued.

They originally thought that Lehman would not pose any threat to them, but they did not expect that Lehman, who was really lacking in business, would actually grow up slowly.

Although they had 66 customers in common at the time of the breakup, Lehman only got 19 customers; even though they were acquired halfway-in 1984, American Express acquired Lehman and became independent again 10 years later; although at the time of 9/11, Their headquarters in the World Trade Center was also wiped out-this naturally lost a lot of elite talents... but they just survived, and they are getting bigger and bigger and more bullish.

How can Goldman Sachs be comfortable? ...

And these grievances are not clear to everyone on Wall Street except their two families, but now, it is estimated that many Americans are aware of it, because the experts on TV will sort out the chaotic millet from beginning to end. Again.

When this article is combined with the previous article, this kind of public opinion is really not good for Paulson to ignore Lehman, otherwise, it really seems that they are deliberately dealing with Lehman.

And it seems that this really doesn't look like Fuld's own propaganda. If he is leading it, why should he say that Paulson should take a knife against Wall Street?

This is naturally the main reason that makes Paulson and Lauder even more angry. They are so clean.

With pride, Fuld flew to Peanuts to see Paulson. The purpose of his trip was very simple. He hoped that Paulson could guarantee that, just like when Bear Stearns and Two Rooms were killed, he also treated Lehman. Injection.

On the plane, looking at the two aspects of news that continued to ferment, he was full of confidence in this trip.

When Fuld was proud, there was another person who was very annoyed, even more annoyed than Paulson and Lauder, and that was the current president of Merrill Lynch, John Thain.

He knows very well that one purpose of Fuld’s media propaganda is to push the cause of the subprime loan to Goldman Sachs; the second purpose is to make Paulson not be good at Lehman. , And put himself in a weak and advantageous position when talking with Paulson; the final goal was to target Merrill Lynch.

Based on this propaganda station launched by Fuld, two conclusions can be drawn: First, Paulson should take the attack on Wall Street; second, Paulson should not target Lehman.

So, in general, who should Paulson take? Only his Merrill Lynch.

Moreover, if Paulson uses Merrill Lynch ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, he will definitely get more applause, because he, John Thain, has worked at Goldman Sachs for 24 years.

When Paulson was the chairman of Goldman Sachs, he and Goldman Sachs' current helm, Lauder, were both co-presidents, that is, a strong candidate for Paulson's successor.

But after knowing that he could not compete with Lauder, he took the initiative to leave, first to the New York Stock Exchange and then to Merrill Lynch.

But after Lehman's Fuld launched this propaganda, he knew that he must be labeled as a Goldman Sachs again.

What is more welcome to the public than Paulson, who was born in Goldman Sachs, packing up him, who is also from Goldman Sachs?

Therefore, he felt that the most important purpose of Fuld's launch of this propaganda should be the last one, which is to hope that his Merrill Lynch could be used by the US government to warn other companies on Wall Street.

Fuld, you old bastard, don't be smug too soon!
