“。。。 Many people's eyes are red, some people are more tearful, no one answers our questions, we can only see from the Lehman company constantly out of the box, lugging luggage of the staff, to the streets looking for taxis. "

Fresh and delicious yellow beef is constantly sent to the entrance. Andy puts down his knife and fork, takes a sip of fresh orange juice and looks at AMC news channel, which is reporting on the spot across the restaurant.

Looking at the south side of the Lehman building that now belongs to him, a "wall of shame" has been set up, with pictures of Fuld and Gregory pasted on it, and marked with "Adai and Agua"!

According to his report in the headquarters building of Lehman, before the huge trading hall of Lehman headquarters was filled with a terrible mood, employees were not only shocked, but also extremely angry! Because too much of their expectation is on the company's stock price!

Andy knows this mood will not go away until a long time later!

Of course, all these things are irrelevant for him as a winner.

However, for Fuld, for the rest of his life, there will be not only mental pain, but also endless lawsuits, as well as the angry eyes of his former subordinates and people.

Even a few days after the collapse of Lehman, Andy read in the newspaper that Fuld was beaten black and blue by protesters while exercising in Lehman's Gymnasium.

"I had to approve the deal because it was the only deal that could be done. Lehman Brothers became a victim. In fact, it is the only real sign of the credit market tsunami. This is the most memorable bankruptcy trial I've ever had. This can only be regarded as a unique performance. It's hard for me to imagine another emergency like this. "

On TV, Manhattan court bankruptcy judge James Parker's face was as deep as water, and his face was solemn, as the cameras and reporters surrounding him said.

Andy sneers, picks up the white napkin and wipes the corners of his mouth. He is still on the desk. He takes up the remote control and turns off the TV. He goes out of the dining room, goes to the cloakmirror and arranges it. He says to the maid standing behind him, "don't disturb Ivana. Let her have a good rest. I won't come back for lunch."

"Yes, sir." The maid replied respectfully.

Andy swaggers out of the door and takes the bodyguards who have been waiting for a long time to enter the elevator. When he comes to the first floor, when the elevator door opens, Andy sees the surrounded and impenetrable building door and frowns slightly.

"Mr. Smith, say something..."

"Say something..."

The bodyguards and the security guards of the building made great efforts to stop the reporters who were constantly crowding forward. Andy just walked to the roadside car with a cold expression. Today's reporters didn't ask random questions, just kept shouting for him to say something.

When he got to the car, Andy did not bend down and sit in the car. Instead, he looked back at a pair of expectant eyes, pondered, and said in a cool voice: "the wall street pattern in people's mind has become the past!"

after that, he didn't pay attention to the scene that has become more chaotic and noisy. He sat in the car, leaned on the car seat, closed his eyes and stopped looking at the car The reporters out of the window.

His words are enough for these media to report, because each family will have its own explanation. As an influential celebrity, some words don't need to be explained, because there will be a lot of media to help with interpretation. He just needs to be responsible for making the language concise enough and loading 13.

Wall Street, in English, means Wall Street. A famous name is just a small street in lower Manhattan, New York.

Originally a Dutch colony, the Dutch colonists erected a fence to prevent black slaves from escaping. In 1653, the wooden fence was reinforced into a one meter high wooden wall. In 1685, along the plank wall, the early New York planners drew a line, which became Wall Street.

After two years, Andy wanders on this long street again. At this time, his mood and feeling are different from each other. Two years ago, he was excited with hesitation. He was unreal, cautious and ambitious. Now, if he wants to come, he can't help laughing.

He didn't care about the surprise around him. He followed the passers-by curiously and took photos with his mobile phone. Andy walked slowly to the big bronze bull in the bolinggreen park on Wall Street under the protection of a dozen bodyguards around him.

It's a park, but it's a small green space. The reason why bronze cattle are made is that Americans also hope to refer to the good omen of "bull market".

Andy looks at the front foot, tail rolled up, horn up and left front. It's very vivid and artistic. But it's also a wonderful irony at the moment.

Turn around to look at the next exchange, did not stop, but continue to move forward not far away from Gaia's building.

At this moment, Wall Street has been completely submerged by the financial tsunami, and the financial giants are struggling in the exchange beside the copper bull. All traders are in a state of panic. No one can be sure that when another dawn comes, whether their company still exists, whether they still have the mood and opportunity to continue to walk on this famous street, and whether they can continue to look at this famous copper bull with ambition and hope.When Andy came to the floor where Gaia company is located, he saw a very busy scene. Almost everyone was running, especially in the office hall. Many people were holding data in their hands, cranning their necks to hold the microphone and saying loudly. They were so busy that no one paid attention to his big boss.

Andy walked through the busy hall with a smile on his face and handed over two materials for his subordinates. When he pushed open al's office, he saw Al, who was also holding his shirt sleeve, holding the phone with his neck askew, turning the materials in both hands and talking constantly in his mouth.

Seeing the big boss coming in, Al didn't get up to meet him. Instead, he pointed to his seat and continued to talk about the phone. However, the phone soon ended. He wryly smiled at the big boss who was sitting opposite him with a smile on his face and said, "boss, although we bought those assets smoothly, the trouble has come. We don't have enough staff..."

Andy shrugs his shoulders, takes the coffee from Secretary Al, smiles and says, "take your time, don't worry. Anyway, there are some we want to kill people, as long as we keep normal operation."

The $1.3 billion acquisition of Lehman's headquarters, American investment banking and capital markets businesses, while as many as 9000 Lehman Brothers employees will be retained.

Lehman headquarters, valued at $1 billion, was valued at $800 million.

The $250 million divestiture of Lehman Brothers' North America operations includes personnel, products, brand names, technologies and customers of two data centers, but does not include risk transactions and debt that put Lehman in a desperate situation before it filed for bankruptcy protection.

It also includes all of Lehman's investment banking and capital markets businesses in the US, London and Canada, including banking, commodities, swaps and prime brokerage, with a value of $250 million.

Cabbage price!

It's a deal, but it's a real robbery. When Fuld signed the deal last night, he was almost ferocious. He bit his teeth and hated Andy. Some of the members of the board of directors were red. At that time, the atmosphere was so depressed that many people couldn't breathe.

"Well, Al, now let's spread the news. We intend to sell all the investment banking and capital market businesses in the United States, London and Canada that we just got from Lehman Brothers, so that we can save a lot of human and material resources." Andy put down his coffee and said in a deep voice.

"Now?" With a slight frown, Al said, "in this way, the price may be reduced..."

"Ha ha, lower the price? Tell those callers who want to get rid of the cheap ones. Now these are high-quality assets and don't pay the matching price. Let them wash and sleep! Just show me what I mean! " Andy said with a sneer on his face, although he didn't know who was the cheapest part of the assets after the bankruptcy of the previous Lehman, but he couldn't think of the vultures that took the big advantage, such as Barclays Bank and Mg chase.

But now that it's in his hands, those who want to pick it up are not killed by him, how can it be!

(Andy took advantage of the fire to rob the acquired assets of Lehman, which was actually annexed by Barclays Bank of England for us $1.75 billion, which is the "short board" of Barclays Bank business. The deal was described by the president of Barclays as "a lifetime opportunity."
