Chapter 2528

"That's impossible, Mr. Lynch!"

The director of the Federal Reserve Bank directly gave an answer of "impossible".

If it wasn't Lynch sitting across from him, if it were anyone else, he would answer a question with a slightly raised and mocking tone——

"Do you fucking know what 5.00% of the Federal Reserve Bank is?"

That is at least a value of more than 500 billion!
And there will be more and more!

The top three largest individual shareholders of the Federal Reserve Bank only add up to this amount. It is obviously impossible for Lynch to ask for so much alone.

However, he didn't have such a "loud voice" when facing Lynch's denial of this possibility, but responded to Lynch with a low voice and some grief and indignation.

Lynch looked at him and shook his head slightly, "Nothing is impossible, sir."

"The Gefra people have never imagined that a group of exiled prisoners, thieves, daughters-in-law, gold diggers, such marginalized people who have been eliminated by society, can establish such a powerful country on this land."

"And the aborigines in this land never thought about it. They are just a group of rare foreign demons, but they easily slaughtered them to the point where they need to rely on legal protection to survive!"

"The people of Gefra didn't think that Peng Jieo, who had lost to them, would one day ignite the flames of war on Gefra Island, just like they didn't think that the Federal Army could land on the Eastern Continent."

"There is nothing absolutely impossible in this world. Destiny is always so elusive."

"It will always break through your cognition when you don't expect it, and make you realize that there is no absolute thing in this world!"

"Maybe you can go back and discuss it with the board?"

"I believe that some shareholders are willing to sell their shares at an appropriate price. After all, there are not so many people who are willing to sink into the water together!"

The stock price of the Federal Reserve Bank has been falling continuously, although the decline is not very large, but it is heading down!

The board of directors and major shareholders are all trying to cover the bottom of the stock price. If there is an abnormal sell-off, they will take over. This also makes their cash shrink rapidly and at the same time eat up too many shares.

It’s not that having too many shares is bad. In fact, having too many shares is of great help to their power in the board of directors and shareholders’ meeting.

But this kind of accumulation should happen when the stock of the Federal Reserve Bank is healthy, and their personal assets are healthy, and that will make sense!

In fact, if someone is willing to take over some stocks and share some pressure for them, they may not be as resolute in their opposition as in the past.

The director remained silent, "Is there no other possibility?"

Lynch shook his head and didn't speak again. He had already expressed the attitude of "If I can't meet my requirements, there can be no cooperation" in his own way.

The director knew that it was meaningless to procrastinate any longer. For a big man like Lynch, as long as he was sure of things, it was his "bottom line".

Then he got up to leave, very polite, thanking Lynch for taking the time to chat with him, and thanking Lynch for being willing to give some conditions for cooperation in this matter.

After the director returned to the Federal Reserve Bank, he explained Lynch's request again.

In addition to a few board members who are very dissatisfied with Lynch's lion's mouth, the chairman of the board and a small number of major shareholders are considering whether it is worthwhile to do so.

"Can we take out 5.00% of the shares?"

After a short thought, the chairman of the board asked a question.

After the Federal Reserve Bank’s stock began to fall due to antitrust lawsuits, the board of directors immediately launched corresponding countermeasures, that is, board members and major shareholders, tried their best to eat those abnormal selling orders to stabilize the stock price.

This is very important for a company!

Because the stock price is the expression of a company's confidence in a certain period of time in the future in the eyes of investors!
If even the board of directors and major shareholders are unwilling to take over the offer and are not optimistic about the future of the Federal Reserve Bank, then investors will immediately abandon their stocks, which will cause the Federal Reserve Bank to plummet!

Once an economy of this size and volume plummets, it will trigger a terrifying run!

People who have borrowed from the Federal Savings Bank will do everything possible to procrastinate, refuse to repay in advance, and even prefer to sue and not repay.

And the cashiers after the run broke out will drain every penny out of the Federal Reserve Bank's vaults!

The deposit guarantee amount of the Federal Savings Bank is less than 40.00% of the deposit amount, that is to say, if it has accepted a deposit of 100 yuan, but in fact it can only take out 40 yuan now.

The remaining money is either lent to others or used for various investments.

For a bank, as long as it cannot withdraw money, it is tantamount to standing on the verge of bankruptcy.

Maybe in a few days, it will apply for bankruptcy protection in the run, even though its assets are actually much more than deposits!
In order to stabilize the confidence of investors, and to ensure that there will be no rush, they must maintain the stock price!

And the only way to maintain the stock price in the financial trading market is to be a catcher!

"We can take out about [-]% of the shares now. If you consider some repurchase terms, [-]% to [-]% is no problem."

When the chairman of the board heard this figure, he was still very satisfied, which means that there are not so many people selling stocks.

"Lynch's influence on the presidential palace is key. Since President Bowling took over, he seems to be welded into the presidential palace."

"He and several federal presidents are close friends, and his influence on Connor is particularly important."

"I think that under the right conditions, we can continue to contact Lynch, as long as he can meet our requirements, we can give him these shares."

Give, not for nothing.

Lynch was going to buy it, or as he put it, cross-shareholding.

This is actually a very good choice, especially cross-shareholding, which can greatly enhance a company's ability to resist risks!

This is far more suitable for the current situation than spending money directly!
Another director seems to be asking himself or the chairman of the board, "So what kind of conditions do we need him to meet?"

The chairman of the board of directors turned the lighter in his hand and said, "Let him convince Connor..."

"This time I'll talk to him personally."

The chairman of the board of directors of the Federal Reserve Bank called Lynch that night and made an appointment with him tomorrow morning.

Lynch didn't shirk it either, one day earlier and one day later, there wouldn't be much change in the result.

The two met this time in Lynch's office, Blackstone Bank's office, and he didn't come often.

An institution like a bank is not a new industry or enterprise. It has already had a very mature rule mechanism. The chairman of the board of directors, the major shareholder, or the president of the bank will only be responsible for some general decisions.

When it comes to the specific implementation link, they will not touch it, and they are not needed.

At least I have never heard of any bank whose president is still handling deposits for customers at the counter, and the deposit is only one dollar.

So after he decided on the general direction, he basically didn't need to intervene in the rest.

Blackstone Bank's cash pool is very abundant, and there are no problems with various lending and lending businesses. Apart from making the bank's senior management feel uneasy, his presence here does not actually mean much.

Today, though, it makes sense for him to sit in the office!
The height of this office is as high as 12 meters!
The decoration is extremely luxurious!
Compared with the office of a bank president, it is actually more like a palace that handles daily work for His Majesty the Emperor!
The two-meter-high high-back chair is made of pure gold, supplemented with dragon-colored dragon's blood wood and rhinoceros leather, making it look not much different from the throne of His Majesty the Emperor.

Lynch is sitting on this exaggerated chair, but it does not make people feel that he is insignificant. Instead, it gives people a strong visual impact!
The Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank was stunned for a moment when he just entered the office. He had seen many various designs, but few were like this one.

It made him mistakenly think that he was standing in the court of some royal family, not in the office.

Lynch got up, took two steps around the desk, then stopped, looking at the chairman of the board with a smile on his face.

At this time, the latter came back to his senses and walked in front of Lynch, actively stretched out his hand, and held Lynch's raised palm just right.

"Mr. Lynch, it's a pleasure to meet you here."

"Me too!"

Lynch nodded reservedly, then invited the chairman of the board to sit down, then returned to the exaggerated chair and sat back.

"This chair...", the chairman of the board of directors still didn't hold back. Of course, this is also a way of the hot field, a relatively advanced communication skill.

Convincing others is actually a very difficult communication job. When you have this task, it means that the two of you are essentially at odds.

So how to resolve differences has become a key.

Before resolving differences, there are many things that need to be done, such as finding common ground between the two parties, so that both parties can agree with each other.

Finding a content that seems unrelated to communication as a hot topic, and then introducing recognition can make communication smoother.

It's like if someone says you have good taste, you don't think that person is an idiot.

The topic that the chairman of the board of directors seems to have nothing to do with the theme is also preparing for the search for approval.

Lynch patted the armrest of the golden throne, with a smile on his face, "The Penjieo royal family owes me a lot of money."

"This is one of the properties they mortgaged to me. It used to be the throne of many emperors, but now it belongs to me!"

"Penteo's royal family was originally reluctant to mortgage it to me. They thought it was a symbol of the royal family's spirit."

"However, when they quickly realized that the value of satisfying me was far higher than such a dead thing that only had symbolic meaning, they compromised!"

"only because……"

"I can influence the outcome of the negotiation!"
