Silicon Valley

PS. Here is today's update, and by the way, I will pull a ticket for the 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 tickets, and they will also get coins for voting. I beg everyone for your support and appreciation!

In the field of the Internet, Henry has completely crushed other companies in terms of creativity with the memory of his previous life.

He has more Internet companies that have not yet been established, such as Facebook social networking sites, LinkedIn (LinkedIn) professional social networking sites, TripAdvisor travel review sites, etc. However, Henry has decided that if these sites are established, they will be established through overseas offshore companies. Take the holding!

Henry instructed people to secretly buy 6 registered offshore companies in the British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, the Bahamas, the Seychelles, Bermuda, and the Republic of Panama, each of which is a total of 36 offshore companies. company. Each of these 36 companies jointly controls an Internet company, even if the United States wants to investigate it is very difficult!

After completing this, Henry let these offshore companies acquire small Internet companies in Silicon Valley, and then let these small companies change their names. Henry first acquired four companies and changed their names to Facebook, YouTube, Linkedln and TriAdvisor.

After that, the company acquired some talents, and Henry handed over his design to them to complete!

This time, Henry wants to control these companies behind the scenes, unless it is necessary, otherwise he will not reveal his identity!

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

Henry thought that he was too good to be envied, and it was time to make some changes. First, keep a low profile and stop provoking other people; second, do something stupid!

What stupid thing to do?

Burn money!

Henry immediately spun off the Williams Laboratory from Williams Electronics, and then renamed it the WilliamsX mysterious laboratory, ready to carry out a money-burning operation!

For a company with an X, it seems that the end of its name must have an X in it. Such as GoogleX, SpaceX...

The WilliamsX Mystery Lab will be similar to the GoogleX Mystery Lab, engaged in the development of futuristic high-tech that shakes the world. But stronger than Google, engaged in nanotechnology, robotics, artificial intelligence. Solar energy, nuclear fission, nuclear fusion, driverless cars, smart glasses, smart watches. High-altitude wireless network. Research and development of space elevators and other technologies...

Henry has more than 130 billion US dollars on hand, and after that, he is going to cash out a lot of money from the stock market, and it will cost hundreds of billions of dollars anyway! This amount of money is just enough to support Henry's high-tech development.

You can burn money, but you can’t burn it indiscriminately. The development of technology is a process of accumulation and gradual progress. Some projects will be launched after other technologies are mature. Such as driverless cars, smart glasses. Sky elevator...

Henry listed nanotechnology, robotics, artificial intelligence, high-tech energy (solar energy, nuclear fission, nuclear fusion) as the first research echelon, which is the main research direction of the WilliamsX mysterious laboratory!

Now, Henry still wants to acquire Lockheed Martin, but it may not be easy for the California consortium to let it go. The Bank of America is the financial core of the California consortium, but in recent years, the Bank of America has been gradually eroded by the Morgan consortium and the First Citigroup, and the California consortium's control over the Bank of America is getting weaker and weaker.

Therefore, this point is Henry's breakthrough.

If you own a stake in Bank of America. Helping the California consortium regain control of Bank of America in exchange for buying Lockheed Martin itself should be very likely. Henry pondered for a moment, the only way is for Williams Galaxy to exchange shares with Bank of America!

Williams Bank faces Citi Galactic and Morgan Bank in the United States. It feels a little weak, and it is time to find allies. The California consortium in California is naturally the best choice. Henry unconsciously thought to infiltrate the California consortium through Williams Bank, nibble it step by step in the future, and finally use it for his own use, thereby establishing his own Williams consortium! ! !

Moreover, Henry's own main industry is in California, so it is difficult to accommodate two tigers in one mountain, so sooner or later, Henry will have to annex the California consortium!

This time to acquire Lockheed Martin, it is better to simply break into the California consortium!

Thinking of this, Henry couldn't help but flash a gleam in his eyes, and then he picked up the phone and asked someone to contact the California consortium!

A week later, Henry met with more than a dozen representatives of the California consortium at Williams Bank!

Henry smiled slightly and said to everyone, Everyone, welcome to Williams Bank!

Mr. Williams, I heard that you plan to merge Williams Bank with Bank of America. I wonder if this is true? An old man who was about 60 years old just stared at Henry like a light and asked.

The old man is Brent Guss, CEO and President of Bank of America, an important executive of the California consortium!

Henry looked at him, nodded and said, Yes, there is a plan. Henry paused and said, Williams Bank and Bank of America have always been in competition, especially in California, the relationship between each other is very tense, even It's the vicious competition that has resulted in losses for both parties. So I think it's a win for both parties! Also, I'm not used to the JPMorgan consortium and the Citigroup One consortium pointing fingers at Bank of America. Bank of America is a California consortium. The Milky Way is equivalent to the territory of the Western Consortium, why should the Eastern Consortium intervene?!

Williams, what do you mean... Brent Gus was slightly taken aback and asked uncertainly.

I mean very simple!!!

Henry smiled and said, Williams Bank and Bank of America are married, merged together, and then drive away the Morgan consortium and the First Citibank consortium!

Henry glanced around and said indifferently: You must also know that there is a lot of friction between me and Morgan and Citibank. We should be in the same camp, and everyone is in California, how can people from other states be bullied!

As soon as Henry finished speaking, many people nodded secretly.

Brent Gus made this eye contact with the others, and then Brent Gus asked Henry, Do you have a specific merger plan?

Yes! Henry nodded, Bank of America's market value is $120 billion, with total assets close to $600 billion. Williams Bank's market value is $80 billion, with total assets of more than $450 billion. Combined After that, you can redistribute the shares according to the market value distribution!

Brent Gus nodded slightly, and then whispered with the others. Williams Bank is a new bank, full of vitality, and Williams Bank has a rapid development potential, especially in the online banking segment, which has the largest number of online registered users. Henry's distribution according to market value is obviously more powerful to Bank of America, and other representatives of the California consortium discussed for a while and agreed with Henry's share distribution method.

Brent Gus then said to Henry: Mr. Williams, after our discussion, we basically agree with your request!

Henry replied with a smile on his face: Well, it's really great, the combination of Bank of America and Williams Bank is of great significance! However, now it's up to Citi and Morgan Bank to agree!

Brent Gus said disdainfully: Now Bank of America is still under the control of our California consortium!!!

There was a smile on Henry's face, but he was a little disdainful in his heart. The control of Bank of America is being gradually taken away by Morgan and Citi First, and the California consortium is still stubborn... However, as he said, at this stage, California The consortium has more control over Bank of America than the Eastern consortium!

Mr. Brent Gus, before Williams Bank and Bank of America complete the merger plan, I have a small request! Henry finally wanted to express another purpose of his own.

What's the matter, you say! Brent Gus said indifferently, as long as the Williams Bank can be merged, it's okay to promise Henry some small things!

That's it, Henry said. I heard Lockheed was negotiating a merger with Martin Marietta, and I mean, I paid for both companies!

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present were a little unnatural.

Seeing this, Henry shrugged involuntarily, and said lightly, If I can't buy Lockheed and Martin Marietta, then I can only ask the Morgan consortium and ask them if they are willing to sell their arms. The company sold it to me, hehe, anyway, they have quite a few arms companies, including General Electric, General Dynamics, Grumman Aircraft, etc... Henry paused, then smiled at Brent Guss He smiled. You said yes, Mr. Brent Gus?
