After the Oscars, Simon did not immediately go to Australia as scheduled to follow up the shooting of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice".
Cersei capital's Heiyan asset management company has been promoting the acquisition of State Street bank's asset management department since last year. After more than half a year's ups and downs, the project was finally finalized. The biggest obstacle to this was in Washington. After last year's mid-term elections, many problems are no longer problems.
After Simon quietly withdrew all his previous political positions in Florida, in return, some opposition voices from the Republican party finally died down.
As for the media and the public, at the present stage, there are few media in the United States that dare to directly confront the westero system. The delay of time is so long that it is not news for a long time. Therefore, the whole incident has caused little waves in the media. Such a highly professional financial M & A is too far away from the public's life, and lacks the support of the media, so fewer people pay attention to it.
Simon and his wife flew to Boston on March 29 to formally sign a merger and acquisition agreement with State Street bank.
With the development of more than half a year and this merger and acquisition, the total assets controlled by Heiyan asset management company has reached an unprecedented US $370 billion. At this stage, no fund enterprise can compete with Heiyan.
Generally speaking, because it is mainly engaged in the asset management business with low risk and stable income, the scale of Heiyan's controlled assets seems huge. After the merger of the asset management department of State Street bank, it is estimated that the annual revenue from management fees and consulting fees is only about $1.5 billion. Due to the nature of the enterprise, the net profit margin of Heiyan's shareholders is relatively high, reaching 30%, so the annual profit is about US $450 million.
Even cersei, a hedge fund manager, made less than a tenth of last year's earnings.
Relying on the crazy hedging with many technology stocks in the first half of last year and the harvest brought about by the Latin American financial turmoil caused by the Mexican Peso Crisis in the second half of last year, cersei fund management company finally reaped a huge profit of up to US $6.9 billion in 1994 after deducting all the handling charges.
However, compared with the total size of cersei fund management company of US $5 billion at the beginning of 1994, Simon has kept the fund at about US $3 billion through continuous settlement and return, and there is still a trend of further contraction in the future.
Because as more and more capital flows into the capital hedging industry, according to Soros' famous reflexivity theory of the interaction between market participants and the market itself, the uncertainty in this field will increase significantly.
Moreover, capital hedging is a zero sum game after all. Cersei fund management company made 6.9 billion US dollars last year, which means that many people have lost so much money, which may unknowingly create many enemies for the westero system. The assassination in the first half of last year and the subsequent Woodfield manor bombing, in the final analysis, was that some people lost their eyes in the capital hedging market and wanted to take the lead.
Simon doesn't want something to happen again.
Therefore, Simon even plans to let cersei capital completely withdraw from the hedging field in the near future, at least not personally participate in this part of the business, and then turn more resources to Apollo management company and black rock asset management company.
Compared with the shrinking hedging business, the scale of the other two subsidiaries is expanding, which is the "main force" in the financial field.
During the initial accumulation period, because there were too few chips, it didn't matter to use "surprise soldiers" several times, even if they lost all, they would not lose too much.
It is very irrational to continue to do so when the capital has developed to a certain extent.
Moreover, for black rock asset management company, although the return is far less than that of hedge funds, what Simon is interested in is not this point at all, but the financial giant's control over the capital of North America and even the whole world. For many years in the future, a large part of the world's power will be rooted in capital.
If you control capital, you have power. The more capital you control, the more power you have.
In the original time and space, Lawrence Fink, who controls BlackRock asset management company with an asset size of US $7 trillion, often ranks at the top of the global power list with many heads of state.
Now, the hidden power will belong to the Westeros.
After the acquisition, cersei capital, controlled by the Simons, reduced its stake in black rock asset management to 32%. However, out of trust in the Westeros family, State Street bank granted the Simons 22% of the voting rights of black rock asset management in the acquisition process for a period of five years.
A total of 54% of the voting rights, making the Westeros family black rock asset management company to achieve absolute control.
It is undeniable that Lawrence Fink is a very outstanding senior manager in the financial industry. However, whether it is the asset management department of State Street bank or the investors of its assets who are willing to transition to cersei capital, they still value the surname "westero".
At the beginning, the main reason for Janet to promote the merger was to find that Lawrence Fink was trying to erode cersei's control over BlackRock asset management company by continuously diluting its equity. With the completion of this transaction, Fink would not try to do so again as long as it was not stupid. Otherwise, Simon would not mind kicking the other party out.Many small funds with assets of hundreds of millions and billions of dollars often can not survive after losing their core figures. Now, Heiyan asset management company is a huge capital machine that can run smoothly without anyone.
Simon accompanied Janet in Boston for one day. After the signing of the merger and acquisition agreement, Janet stayed in Boston to deal with some follow-up matters. Simon rushed to New York the next day, where he accumulated a lot of work to deal with.
The couple's planned trip to Australia was postponed to April 3.
For two consecutive days on March 30 and March 31, Simon held professional and lengthy meetings with teams from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and First Boston to discuss the three issues of igrit IPO, Nokia's listing in North America and melisandro IPO.
Nokia's listing in North America will start as early as may.
Simon chose to let Nokia list in the U.S. stock market, mainly to pave the way for the development of this communication industry giant in North America. Only by linking Nokia's interests with North American investors, can it not encounter all kinds of disruptions in the future. Therefore, this time, it will probably increase its shares by about 10%.
As a support for Grace's husband Bill spatter, Nokia's listing and SEO will be mainly in the charge of First Boston.
Just in 1994, the global mobile phone shipment continued to explode, reaching 31 million units. Nokia, which has already achieved the goal of anti surpassing Motorola, occupied 41% of the market share, with the annual shipment of 12.7 million units. Including Nokia's base station equipment and other businesses, the company's annual revenue reached US $4.31 billion and net profit was US $460 million.
Affected by the rapid growth of Nokia's performance, coupled with the popularity of new technology concept and the company's own westero concept stock, Nokia's current market value, which was listed on the London stock market two years ago, has reached 21.7 billion pounds, equivalent to 32.6 billion US dollars.
Therefore, the additional issuance of 10% shares will raise more than US $3 billion.
It's completely in the hands of First Boston, and Simon spared no effort to support bill spotter.
The qualifications accumulated from this deal are enough for bill spatter to be the head of the First Boston securities and exchange department in the next few years, and it is not impossible for him to further control the investment banking subsidiary of UBS in the future. If you go up, Simon doesn't expect that as long as you don't go crazy, otherwise the Swiss will certainly not allow an American to gain access to the core power of UBS.
In addition to the IPO of igritte and melisandro, the main underwriter is still Goldman Sachs and Morgan, which have a strong relationship with westrow system.
After Nokia's IPO in May, igrit's IPO rhythm is basically the same as that of Denise entertainment last year. After completing the employee stock ownership plan, igrit will formally submit the prospectus to the SEC next month, and is expected to be officially listed in July. Finally, melisandro, the IPO plan has just begun, and the official listing will probably wait until early next year.
Three companies, Nokia and igritte, Simon will choose to be listed on the Nasdaq market, while melisandro will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
April 1st, April Fool's day.
It's Saturday.
Simon is still in New York. Janet went straight back to Los Angeles after she was busy in Boston yesterday, and she will take her and three kids to board the plane to Australia this morning.
The original plan was that only the couple would go to Australia.
It's time for two.
Janet called the old man and told him that she was very angry and said that if she didn't take her baby grandson with her, she would not go back. Janet is not afraid of anything but her father. She can only promise.
Because of the tacit understanding formed by the family, the two women rushed to the airport with their three children first, and they were still in the first class of the commercial flight.
Simon will leave next Monday as planned.
After two consecutive days of meetings, Simon came to the manor in the northern suburb of Greenwich last night and made an appointment with Celia Miller in the morning.
In the villa study.
Having reported in detail the recent trends of the three private military companies of the Westeros family, Celia finally mentioned another thing about sending ufms mercenaries to Yugoslavia to perform Secret Missions when she was in Ukraine last time.
The whole story is probably revealed.
Just at the beginning of this month, a group of mysterious armed forces suddenly attacked an oil train escorted by armed forces in Serbia. Not only was the train bombed, but also irreversible damage was caused to the two kilometer long railway. At the same time, more than 30 Serb government troops were killed and injured.
After the disintegration of Yugoslavia in 1992, all ethnic groups in the region of Serbia have been in a state of turbulence with the support of various forces.
The scuffle that lasted for three years just got better at the end of last year. Now, it suddenly happened again.
No one claimed responsibility for the attack.
However, the war is back on fire.The oil transportation from the Middle East to Europe, which has just recovered, has also suffered heavy losses.
Even if he didn't know someone had secretly seconded 200 soldiers from ufms, Simon could roughly figure out the joints.
In fact, many people know it.
It's nothing more than a game.
After all, it's for petrodollars.
When ordinary people talk about all kinds of disputes provoked by the United States in the Middle East, they always subconsciously think that this is because the Americans want to plunder the oil resources in the Middle East.
It's not like that.
At least not the main reason.
In fact, the fundamental purpose of the Americans is to maintain the US dollar based oil settlement system. No volume of global commodity trading can be compared with that of oil. By bundling the US dollar with oil, we can basically determine the US dollar's settlement currency position in the global market.
Only by ensuring this, can the United States reap global wealth by controlling the issuance of US dollars, and even pass on the losses that should have been borne by the United States itself to the whole world in the event of an economic crisis.
The subprime mortgage crisis in 2008 is the most typical case of American transfer crisis.
The crisis affected the whole world, and even Africa could not avoid it. Many African countries fell back into turbulence after 2008 because of economic recession. However, the U.S. economy rebounded only after a brief downturn in 2009, and a decade long economic boom began again.
Unlike the U.S. economic data all the way up, other old capitalist countries, such as the United Kingdom, France, Germany, etc., after 2008, the economy has fallen into a long-term turmoil and stagnation. All this is because the United States successfully passed on a major crisis that should have completely destroyed the American economy in 2008 by using the US dollar.
Therefore, no matter before or after 2008, in order to maintain oil dollar and dollar hegemony, the United States will absolutely not hesitate to launch any war.
This is also the reason why the turbulence in Yugoslavia lasted for ten years in the 1990s.
This area just connects Europe and the Middle East.
Therefore, Europe has always wanted to build an oil channel directly connecting Europe and the Middle East. Once the channel is completed, it can not only greatly reduce the cost for Europe to obtain energy, but also bypass the US dollar settlement system to a large extent, and realize direct local currency settlement transactions between Europe and several middle East oil producing countries such as Syria, Iraq and even Iran.
As the only superpower after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States will not allow this to happen.
So there's a decade of turmoil in Yugoslavia, the key node of the road.
As a result, in 1992, after three years of scuffle, as soon as the parties stopped a little, the oil train was bombed and then continued to fight.
Simon remembers that this scuffle didn't stop until after the millennium.
As for the reason.
Just look at the fate of Syria, Iraq and Iran.
The rest of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Kuwait and other oil producing countries in the Middle East, no one dares to mention the issue of a certain oil channel on the road, and the countries in the former Yugoslavia, which have finally stabilized, have come back to their senses, and no one is in trouble again. Otherwise, every minute is the disaster of national subjugation.
Although it is dominated by a soul on the other side of the ocean, Simon also knows that the interests of the Westeros are bound to the country where they live.
In the past, as a bystander, Simon naturally crusaded against the brutality of the United States.
Now, Simon doesn't think there's anything wrong with Washington doing this.
It's a world of the jungle after all.
No matter how civilized it is on the surface, the law of the jungle is the fundamental. Countries that do not understand or respect this point have no future in this world.
Only by maintaining the aggression of our genetic instinct can a country or a nation survive for a long time.
It's like two people, one is tall and strong, unreasonable, full of aggression, the other is not small, but always hold the idea that more is better than less, endure a moment of calm wind and waves, retreat a step into the sky. As a result, the unreasonable person finds that the other is always tolerant of retreat, and naturally moves constantly, which is likely to kill the other carelessly.
If there are no rules that can restrict the barbarian in their world, the result will be that the tyrant will occupy the good man's house, sleep the good man's wife and have nothing to do with beating the good man's son.
That's the end.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest.
The key is competition.
In Simon's memory, under the constant exaggeration of various forces, many people hold a prejudice against Russia. They think that Russia is aggressive and belongs to the axis of evil, so they should be on guard.
However.
Many people seem to forget the fact that Russian, the most popular language in the world, is not even in the top five.The biggest one is called English.
Then there is French, which is called beautiful and elegant, and is used in most of Africa. There is also Spanish all over the world, with Latin America being the most extensive. Even German and Italian.
However, because the countries behind these languages occupy enough resources, have enough discourse power, and occupy the commanding heights of morality and justice, they become the symbols of the world civilization, the makers of rules, and then use the rules they make to continue to plunder.
If you don't agree and dare not fight for it, you are certainly uncivilized, evil and need to be eliminated.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

However, compared with the total size of cersei fund management company of US $5 billion at the beginning of 1994, Simon has kept the fund at about US $3 billion through continuous settlement and return, and there is still a trend of further contraction in the future. Because as more and more capital flows into the capital hedging industry, according to Soros' famous reflexivity theory of the interaction between market participants and the market itself, the uncertainty in this field will increase significantly. Moreover, capital hedging is a zero sum game after all. Cersei fund management company made 6.9 billion US dollars last year, which means that many people have lost so much money, which may unknowingly create many enemies for the westero system. The assassination in the first half of last year and the subsequent Woodfield manor bombing, in the final analysis, was that some people lost their eyes in the capital hedging market and wanted to take the lead. Simon doesn't want something to happen again. Therefore, Simon even plans to let cersei capital completely withdraw from the hedging field in the near future, at least not personally participate in this part of the business, and then turn more resources to Apollo management company and black rock asset management company. Compared with the shrinking hedging business, the scale of the other two subsidiaries is expanding, which is the "main force" in the financial field. During the initial accumulation period, because there were too few chips, it didn't matter to use "surprise soldiers" several times, even if they lost all, they would not lose too much. It is very irrational to continue to do so when the capital has developed to a certain extent. Moreover, for black rock asset management company, although the return is far less than that of hedge funds, what Simon is interested in is not this point at all, but the financial giant's control over the capital of North America and even the whole world. For many years in the future, a large part of the world's power will be rooted in capital. If you control capital, you have power. The more capital you control, the more power you have. In the original time and space, Lawrence Fink, who controls BlackRock asset management company with an asset size of US $7 trillion, often ranks at the top of the global power list with many heads of state. Now, the hidden power will belong to the Westeros. After the acquisition, cersei capital, controlled by the Simons, reduced its stake in black rock asset management to 32%. However, out of trust in the Westeros family, State Street bank granted the Simons 22% of the voting rights of black rock asset management in the acquisition process for a period of five years. A total of 54% of the voting rights, making the Westeros family black rock asset management company to achieve absolute control. It is undeniable that Lawrence Fink is a very outstanding senior manager in the financial industry. However, whether it is the asset management department of State Street bank or the investors of its assets who are willing to transition to cersei capital, they still value the surname "westero". At the beginning, the main reason for Janet to promote the merger was to find that Lawrence Fink was trying to erode cersei's control over BlackRock asset management company by continuously diluting its equity. With the completion of this transaction, Fink would not try to do so again as long as it was not stupid. Otherwise, Simon would not mind kicking the other party out.Many small funds with assets of hundreds of millions and billions of dollars often can not survive after losing their core figures. Now, Heiyan asset management company is a huge capital machine that can run smoothly without anyone. Simon accompanied Janet in Boston for one day. After the signing of the merger and acquisition agreement, Janet stayed in Boston to deal with some follow-up matters. Simon rushed to New York the next day, where he accumulated a lot of work to deal with. The couple's planned trip to Australia was postponed to April 3. For two consecutive days on March 30 and March 31, Simon held professional and lengthy meetings with teams from Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and First Boston to discuss the three issues of igrit IPO, Nokia's listing in North America and melisandro IPO. Nokia's listing in North America will start as early as may. Simon chose to let Nokia list in the U.S. stock market, mainly to pave the way for the development of this communication industry giant in North America. Only by linking Nokia's interests with North American investors, can it not encounter all kinds of disruptions in the future. Therefore, this time, it will probably increase its shares by about 10%. As a support for Grace's husband Bill spatter, Nokia's listing and SEO will be mainly in the charge of First Boston. Just in 1994, the global mobile phone shipment continued to explode, reaching 31 million units. Nokia, which has already achieved the goal of anti surpassing Motorola, occupied 41% of the market share, with the annual shipment of 12.7 million units. Including Nokia's base station equipment and other businesses, the company's annual revenue reached US $4.31 billion and net profit was US $460 million. Affected by the rapid growth of Nokia's performance, coupled with the popularity of new technology concept and the company's own westero concept stock, Nokia's current market value, which was listed on the London stock market two years ago, has reached 21.7 billion pounds, equivalent to 32.6 billion US dollars. Therefore, the additional issuance of 10% shares will raise more than US $3 billion. It's completely in the hands of First Boston, and Simon spared no effort to support bill spotter. The qualifications accumulated from this deal are enough for bill spatter to be the head of the First Boston securities and exchange department in the next few years, and it is not impossible for him to further control the investment banking subsidiary of UBS in the future. If you go up, Simon doesn't expect that as long as you don't go crazy, otherwise the Swiss will certainly not allow an American to gain access to the core power of UBS. In addition to the IPO of igritte and melisandro, the main underwriter is still Goldman Sachs and Morgan, which have a strong relationship with westrow system. After Nokia's IPO in May, igrit's IPO rhythm is basically the same as that of Denise entertainment last year. After completing the employee stock ownership plan, igrit will formally submit the prospectus to the SEC next month, and is expected to be officially listed in July. Finally, melisandro, the IPO plan has just begun, and the official listing will probably wait until early next year. Three companies, Nokia and igritte, Simon will choose to be listed on the Nasdaq market, while melisandro will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange. April 1st, April Fool's day. It's Saturday. Simon is still in New York. Janet went straight back to Los Angeles after she was busy in Boston yesterday, and she will take her and three kids to board the plane to Australia this morning. The original plan was that only the couple would go to Australia. It's time for two. Janet called the old man and told him that she was very angry and said that if she didn't take her baby grandson with her, she would not go back. Janet is not afraid of anything but her father. She can only promise. Because of the tacit understanding formed by the family, the two women rushed to the airport with their three children first, and they were still in the first class of the commercial flight. Simon will leave next Monday as planned. After two consecutive days of meetings, Simon came to the manor in the northern suburb of Greenwich last night and made an appointment with Celia Miller in the morning. In the villa study. Having reported in detail the recent trends of the three private military companies of the Westeros family, Celia finally mentioned another thing about sending ufms mercenaries to Yugoslavia to perform Secret Missions when she was in Ukraine last time. The whole story is probably revealed. Just at the beginning of this month, a group of mysterious armed forces suddenly attacked an oil train escorted by armed forces in Serbia. Not only was the train bombed, but also irreversible damage was caused to the two kilometer long railway. At the same time, more than 30 Serb government troops were killed and injured. After the disintegration of Yugoslavia in 1992, all ethnic groups in the region of Serbia have been in a state of turbulence with the support of various forces. The scuffle that lasted for three years just got better at the end of last year. Now, it suddenly happened again. No one claimed responsibility for the attack. However, the war is back on fire.The oil transportation from the Middle East to Europe, which has just recovered, has also suffered heavy losses. Even if he didn't know someone had secretly seconded 200 soldiers from ufms, Simon could roughly figure out the joints. In fact, many people know it. It's nothing more than a game. After all, it's for petrodollars. When ordinary people talk about all kinds of disputes provoked by the United States in the Middle East, they always subconsciously think that this is because the Americans want to plunder the oil resources in the Middle East. It's not like that. At least not the main reason. In fact, the fundamental purpose of the Americans is to maintain the US dollar based oil settlement system. No volume of global commodity trading can be compared with that of oil. By bundling the US dollar with oil, we can basically determine the US dollar's settlement currency position in the global market. Only by ensuring this, can the United States reap global wealth by controlling the issuance of US dollars, and even pass on the losses that should have been borne by the United States itself to the whole world in the event of an economic crisis. The subprime mortgage crisis in 2008 is the most typical case of American transfer crisis. The crisis affected the whole world, and even Africa could not avoid it. Many African countries fell back into turbulence after 2008 because of economic recession. However, the U.S. economy rebounded only after a brief downturn in 2009, and a decade long economic boom began again. Unlike the U.S. economic data all the way up, other old capitalist countries, such as the United Kingdom, France, Germany, etc., after 2008, the economy has fallen into a long-term turmoil and stagnation. All this is because the United States successfully passed on a major crisis that should have completely destroyed the American economy in 2008 by using the US dollar. Therefore, no matter before or after 2008, in order to maintain oil dollar and dollar hegemony, the United States will absolutely not hesitate to launch any war. This is also the reason why the turbulence in Yugoslavia lasted for ten years in the 1990s. This area just connects Europe and the Middle East. Therefore, Europe has always wanted to build an oil channel directly connecting Europe and the Middle East. Once the channel is completed, it can not only greatly reduce the cost for Europe to obtain energy, but also bypass the US dollar settlement system to a large extent, and realize direct local currency settlement transactions between Europe and several middle East oil producing countries such as Syria, Iraq and even Iran. As the only superpower after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States will not allow this to happen. So there's a decade of turmoil in Yugoslavia, the key node of the road. As a result, in 1992, after three years of scuffle, as soon as the parties stopped a little, the oil train was bombed and then continued to fight. Simon remembers that this scuffle didn't stop until after the millennium. As for the reason. Just look at the fate of Syria, Iraq and Iran. The rest of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Kuwait and other oil producing countries in the Middle East, no one dares to mention the issue of a certain oil channel on the road, and the countries in the former Yugoslavia, which have finally stabilized, have come back to their senses, and no one is in trouble again. Otherwise, every minute is the disaster of national subjugation. Although it is dominated by a soul on the other side of the ocean, Simon also knows that the interests of the Westeros are bound to the country where they live. In the past, as a bystander, Simon naturally crusaded against the brutality of the United States. Now, Simon doesn't think there's anything wrong with Washington doing this. It's a world of the jungle after all. No matter how civilized it is on the surface, the law of the jungle is the fundamental. Countries that do not understand or respect this point have no future in this world. Only by maintaining the aggression of our genetic instinct can a country or a nation survive for a long time. It's like two people, one is tall and strong, unreasonable, full of aggression, the other is not small, but always hold the idea that more is better than less, endure a moment of calm wind and waves, retreat a step into the sky. As a result, the unreasonable person finds that the other is always tolerant of retreat, and naturally moves constantly, which is likely to kill the other carelessly. If there are no rules that can restrict the barbarian in their world, the result will be that the tyrant will occupy the good man's house, sleep the good man's wife and have nothing to do with beating the good man's son. That's the end. Natural selection, survival of the fittest. The key is competition. In Simon's memory, under the constant exaggeration of various forces, many people hold a prejudice against Russia. They think that Russia is aggressive and belongs to the axis of evil, so they should be on guard. However. Many people seem to forget the fact that Russian, the most popular language in the world, is not even in the top five.The biggest one is called English. Then there is French, which is called beautiful and elegant, and is used in most of Africa. There is also Spanish all over the world, with Latin America being the most extensive. Even German and Italian. However, because the countries behind these languages occupy enough resources, have enough discourse power, and occupy the commanding heights of morality and justice, they become the symbols of the world civilization, the makers of rules, and then use the rules they make to continue to plunder. If you don't agree and dare not fight for it, you are certainly uncivilized, evil and need to be eliminated.
