Start by trimming cow hooves

The platform of Goldman Sachs Group is very powerful.

While the lawyers on both sides were drafting the contract, Suri accompanied David Levine and played tennis in his backyard.

During this period, he received a phone call, and David Levine immediately told:

"My colleague contacted a seller who was willing to sell a total of 100 million shares at Friday's closing price, which is 6 US dollars and 70 cents per share. I can help you reduce the handling fee to the lowest, which feels pretty good Yes, but it mainly depends on your own thoughts.”

There is no problem with the value of the pledge, and there is definitely no problem with Suri's credit.

All procedures are handled through Goldman Sachs, and financial accounts are opened with Goldman Sachs. There are no regulatory loopholes. Therefore, there is no need to complete the procedures like ordinary people and then slowly wait for the funds to arrive.

"...As expected of you, this is so efficient."

After Suri finished speaking, he wiped the sweat on his forehead with a towel and said: "In direct over-the-counter transactions, no matter whether the market opens up or down on Monday, the transaction will be based on $6.7 per share, right?"

"That's it. US$900 million is poured into the market. Even if you buy it in batches, there is a possibility of pushing up Apple's stock price. The purchase price may be higher than US$6.7, or it may be lower than US$6.7. I can't give you anything. ensure."

As the middleman, David Levin naturally hopes that this order can be completed as soon as possible. After signing the contract, he will feel at ease.

I'm afraid Suri will suddenly regret it and change his mind. If he loses millions of dollars in commission rewards, he may regret it to the point of tossing and turning for weeks and having trouble sleeping.

The stock market hasn't opened yet, and no one can tell how it will perform next week.

Considering that a total of US$900 million was invested in it all at once, it would be difficult for others to detect such a big move. If an institution took the opportunity to sell goods and raise the stock price, the average purchase price would probably be more than US$7 per share.

Of course.

If the market isn't doing well, you might be able to snag one and get it for less than $6.70.

Don't look at the price difference, which is only a few dozen cents. Since you have to buy hundreds of millions of shares, it involves tens of millions of dollars in gains and losses.

I was confused for a while.

Suri didn't want to gamble on this kind of thing, so he said readily:

"Then take all these 100 million shares. If you can't, help me advance for a few days. Remember to give me a discount."

When dealing with big clients like Suri, David Levine only cares about long-term success. He will only be disgusted by fussing over things, so he immediately expressed his stance:

"Don't worry, all the procedures should be completed tomorrow. If the loan has not been approved by tomorrow evening, I will contact the CEO of our company."

Goldman Sachs has three to four hundred partners.

If calculated in terms of strength, David Levine would be almost in the top 20, and he might have the chance to be like his father, who once controlled the entire Goldman Sachs Group.

Involving a large business involving hundreds of millions of dollars, it was normal to alarm the CEO. Su Rui didn't dwell on it anymore and just asked:

"Can you tell me who the seller of this batch of shares is? You can even come up with 100 million shares, so why not put together a few more to avoid having to continue building positions next week."

David Levine spread his hands and said:

"There is nothing that cannot be said. It is a Saudi company with connections to the royal family and holds about 5% of Apple shares."

"Their underground is full of oil. Occasionally, when they dig a hole, oil will spurt out. They are so rich and have too many assets."

"After the Nasdaq bubble collapsed a few years ago, they bought and bought everywhere. When they invested in Apple, the starting price was maybe only a few dozen cents. The stock price had fallen a lot recently, so they probably wanted to hold the money and wait and see for a while. …”

Su Rui suddenly realized.

Now that you have met the wealthy people in white robes, it makes sense.

These people had no place to spend the money they made from selling oil, so they spent money all over the world. They even tried to buy Facebook shares from him at a premium of up to 25%.

If he hadn't known that Facebook was very promising, he would have almost been attracted by it. It was really difficult to resist the charm of these wealthy people. Their gestures were full of the word "trench", and even Suri admired them.

He said to David:

"If you ask me again, if it doesn't work, forget it. If you spend 670 million US dollars at once, the rest should be easy to handle."

David Levine reminds:

"This is an investment, not a waste of money. Just like your Lanai. I often see news about it on the Internet recently. My daughter really wants to travel. I'm afraid its current value has far exceeded your purchase price."

After laughing, Suri replied:

"Lana'i used to be like a paradise. After I developed it into a popular tourist destination, the island was too busy and it was also a headache."

Secretary Amanda just called Suri a few days ago.

It was said that two young girls at the hotel front desk were planning to resign because of complaints from customers, receiving too many people, and excessive mental pressure.

Among them was a blond girl who had a sweet smile and seemed to have a good personality. Su Rui was impressed and promised to give them more bonuses next month, and finally managed to keep them.

By the time January is over, the off-season is almost here.

By then, the occupancy rate of the Four Seasons Hotel is estimated to be less than 30%. It would be a huge loss to leave the company at this time.

…

After the lawyer carefully reviewed the procedures, Suri read it again himself.

The standard mortgage loan agreement, as well as some authorization documents for account opening and transaction procedures, were quickly signed by both parties. David Levine had to discuss the IPO with a company and did not stay long.

After they left, Daddario found him holding Da Ju and asked:

"Are you done with it? A friend asked me to go out for dinner tonight. She is an actor I met from a previous filming. Do you want to go with her?"

Su Rui asked curiously:

"Who is it? I'm almost done with it. It's smoother than expected. I still have some things to do, so I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you."

In fact, I can spare some time and don’t really want to interact with strangers.

Daddario said a name that Suri didn't recognize at all. He took the half-asleep Daju and took the guy to eat canned meat.

As soon as the lid of the canned meat was opened, Daju woke up instantly.

It opened its mouth wide and stretched, squatted there lazily, with a round head, and began to enjoy a sumptuous afternoon tea.

After texting with a friend for a while, Daddario said again:

"You'd better not go. If you want to join the crew for filming, it will be difficult to refuse in person. I found that since I became famous, the attitudes of many friends suddenly changed. Some people said bad things about me behind my back, and some began to exclude me. "

Su Rui asked in surprise:

"Did you just realize? I used to have a lot of friends, but now unless something happens, or I want to start a business, or want to borrow money, almost no one contacts me. After all, it's not time for school. Others will only think about you when they get along with you. No matter how successful you are now, over time, of course I won’t want to get along with you anymore, no one likes to admit their failures.”

Daddario was a little distressed and asked, "What should I do?"

Suri replied calmly:

"There is no other way but to change a group of friends. You can get to know more famous actresses..."
