When everyone calmed down again, Zhang Bin said: "I am thinking that everyone should be curious at this moment, how did I get to sit in this position and why?"
The people below smiled kindly, they really meant it.
Why on earth is a young guy from Asia sitting in the middle?
Even investment giants like Paulson seem to be polite to him.
When it was almost ready, Zhang Bin said: "Actually, the reason is very simple, because I can bring what everyone wants."
"I believe that the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis is not just on a certain company or just a certain industry.
Its impact must be very widespread and involve multiple industries, including finance, construction, transportation, etc.
Investment, etc., no matter which industry, in this environment, there is only one thing, and that is money," Zhang Bin said.
"Global Investment can give other companies what they want, which is cash, but the premise is that Global Investment feels that there is value in investing.
Investment is about returns.
If we feel that there will be no return even if we invest, then why should I go?
invest".
"Well, having said that, I am sitting here today because I have capital that others think is worth it.
This capital can be cash or ability, such as investment ability.
The establishment of Global Investment Company is very important to some companies.
It should be good news, I never doubt it, so I need to announce the following two pieces of news.”
Zhang Bin paused, glanced at the people below, and said with a smile: "Global Investment Company has reached an agreement with Apple to invest 3.4 billion US dollars to acquire 50 million shares of Apple's profit shares.
As for the second news, Global Investment Corporation has decided to invest US$2 billion to take a stake in FedEx 25."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar on the scene.
Although the news had come out before, there were no specific figures and shares.
I didn't expect it to be such a big deal.
The two investments add up to US$5.4 billion.
Everyone can't help but secretly wonder how much cash this global investment company has with such a huge investment from the beginning.
In these days, especially at the critical moment when the subprime mortgage crisis broke out, having money really represents strength.
Whichever company has more liquidity means that you are stronger.
Of course, the US$5.4 billion includes part of Zhang Bin's funds, but in order to achieve the effect, others are also happy to have Zhang Bin say this, which can also reflect their confidence and strength.
Next, Jobs and Schweizer spoke on the signing of the agreement.
Then O'Neal signed an agreement with two companies respectively.
This is only a preliminary agreement.
With billions of dollars of investment, there is a lot that needs to be done, but that is all down to earth.
The agreement was signed in black and white, and billions of dollars were spent.
Everyone started talking about this newly established global investment company and guessing what their bottom line was.
The next part is simple, leaving time for reporters to speak.
It seems that everyone is more concerned about Zhang Bin, and almost half of the questions are asked to him.
Zhang Bin gave selective answers to these questions.
The time soon came to twelve o'clock, and O'Neill announced that the conference was over.
Although many reporters did not have the opportunity to ask questions, they had no choice but to give up.
At noon, Zhang Bin, as the host of Hanton Hotel, invited everyone to stay for dinner, excluding reporters of course.
It is rare to see so many financiers gather together.
Everyone was in a good mood and put forward some opinions for discussion.
Zhang Bin rarely speaks because of all the people here, he has the least qualifications.
If it weren't for what he had in mind, he certainly wouldn't be sitting here.
Therefore, in order to avoid revealing his secret, Zhang Bin will speak as little as possible.
Because there were women accompanying him, Zhang Bin asked Zhou Jingyu to be responsible for accompanying him.
With Melinda here, Zhang Bin was not worried.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Bin saw off all the guests one after another.
Jobs has also left, and he will let O'Neal be responsible for negotiating the follow-up issues of the contract.
Shi Weide stayed, still waiting for Zhang Bin to discuss the follow-up matters with him.
He looks forward to this young investor bringing a new direction and future to him and his company.
He couldn't say he believed in Zhang Bin, but he felt that Zhang Bin had the ability to gather so many top capitalists, so he must have extraordinary abilities, so he chose to believe it.
In the afternoon, Zhang Bin also had another thing to do, which was to be interviewed by a domestic media and a Washington media.
This is unavoidable.
Domestic media are naturally state media, and they naturally have certain priority over other domestic media in interviews.
"Excuse me, Mr.
Zhang, regarding Global Investment Company, may I take the liberty of asking you about your specific shareholding ratio?"
the reporter, a young woman, asked with a smile.
"This is a company secret, no comment," Zhang Bin replied.
"Then I want to ask Mr.
Zhang, you also own a lot of industries in China, but I heard that you have borrowed more than billions of dollars in China, but you can easily take out billions of dollars abroad.
May I ask?
Is there any possibility of asset transfer?"
the reporter asked.
Zhang Bin felt a little unhappy.
He felt that the reporter didn't seem to be asking questions, but instead seemed to be interrogating.
"First of all, I need to clarify that I only have a small part of the billions of dollars.
In addition, domestic loans are for business needs.
How much money I personally have does not conflict with this.
No matter how much the group loans, it means that the bank Admit that we have the ability to repay, and my personal strength is also one of the factors that the bank values, so I hope that the asset transfer is just your personal conjecture."
Zhang Bin was not polite in his words, but he believed that this The passage will never be aired.
"Then have you ever thought about investing so much money in the domestic market?"
the reporter asked.
"I am a Chinese first.
If there is something good, the first thing I think of must be my country.
There is no doubt about this," Zhang Bin said.
"Regarding the subprime mortgage crisis that broke out in the United States, I would like to ask Mr.
Zhang what he thinks of it.
Have you ever thought about how much impact this will have on the domestic financial market?"
"".
It was already 5:30 in the afternoon when the two interviews ended.
After Zhang Bin asked Mao Shiyang to send the reporter away, he found Ivor.
Ivor can be said to be half of his assistant in Washington, and he helps with many things.
It turns out that Eifel is not free right now and seems to be discussing investment matters with other people.
Zhang Bin looked for other people, but everyone was very busy.
It seems that everyone was busy after the press conference, and reporters felt that it would be more beneficial to ask other people than asking Zhang Bin himself.
Zhang Bin had a rare moment of leisure and returned to his room.
When Zhou Jingyu didn't come back, Zhang Bin made a phone call.
Zhou Jing said that she was accompanying Melinda and the others outside at this time.
Zhang Bin said to be careful and safe, and then prepared to wash up and rest.
Recently, because of these things, I have never relaxed.
Now that things have finally come to an end, Zhang Bin can have a good rest for two days.

Zhang Bin was finishing washing up when there was a knock on the door.
Zhang Bin took a look and saw that it was Shi Weide.
It seemed that the other party couldn't wait any longer, so Zhang Bin opened the door.
"Hi, Zhang, I'm sorry, I should let you rest for a while, but I have to leave tomorrow.
You know, I want to have a simple conversation with you about FedEx's business development," Shi Weide said.
Sorry, but the person walked in directly.
Zhang Bin smiled, he had no bad impression of the straightforward Shi Weide.
Walking to the wine cabinet, Zhang Bin took out a bottle of champagne and opened it.
"Shi Weide, I would like to ask how the company's business in China is going," Zhang Bin asked as he sat down and handed the other party a glass of wine.
Shi Weide took the wine and drank it in one gulp, then smacked his lips and said: "The business is developing very slowly and the progress is difficult.
The main reason is that China's domestic express delivery business is developing rapidly."
Shi Weide said this a bit modestly.
In fact, FedEx was the first express company to look at the Chinese domestic market, the first express company to establish an Asian transit center in China, and the express company with the most direct domestic flights.
Although this kind of achievement is good, it is far from what they planned for FedEx.
The current progress is more about domestic and foreign connections, or using the mainland as a transfer station for Asian services.
In fact, in In terms of its own business in the mainland, FedEx is indeed struggling.
"I own an e-commerce platform, and I would like to ask you what you think of the future e-commerce platform transactions in the mainland," Zhang Bin asked.
"This is a trend in future transactions."
Shi Weide obviously didn't understand what Zhang Bin meant.
"I asked people to do a survey.
In the next few years, our country's netizens will be more inclined to online shopping.
One day, online shopping will surpass physical shopping.
Do you believe it?"
Zhang Bin asked.
"You mean this is our breakthrough?"
Shi Weide asked with a slight frown.
"The development of e-commerce will definitely be very fast.
Just imagine, when people in a country become accustomed to online shopping, how much impact this will have on the entire country's express delivery industry, I think you should understand."
Zhang Bin said.
Shi Weide became silent.
He felt that what Zhang Bin said made sense, but this situation was based on the prosperity and development of the e-commerce platform.
"You have to know that the most important thing for express delivery services is to establish channels.
If you spend too much in the early stage and the profits are too thin, I think it will be difficult to break even."
Shi Weide has a good understanding of the domestic express delivery level and profits.
It's too thin and doesn't fit in with their development philosophy.
"Occupying the market is far more important than immediate profits, isn't it?"
Zhang Bin looked at him and said, "And believe me, if you can treat my compatriots the same way you treat Americans, they will be willing to pay the same price for your services."
Shi Weide nodded, still deep in thought.
"Of course you don't need to agree now.
You can do a survey when you go back.
I can tell you that a considerable part of my future investment will be tilted towards e-commerce platforms.
If you cooperate with me, I believe that within the next five years , FedEx must have a place in the mainland express delivery market," Zhang Bin finally said.
"Okay, I will definitely think about it.
Sorry to bother you, and I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future," Shi Weide said.
Global Investment occupies 25 shares of FedEx.

In the coming years, Zhang Bin’s opinions may determine every investment in FedEx.
However, Zhang Bin knows that after April next year, FedEx will usher in its golden period of development.
Its market value will continue to rise, its turnover will exceed 30 billion, and it will directly enter the world's top 500 companies.
After Shi Weide left, Ivor came to find Zhang Bin.
"Do you know how powerful this time is?
The people who hope to invest in us and are willing to invest in us have arrived in New York.
I have to say, this is really something worth celebrating.
I think we have to drink."
Zhang Bin just opened the door, Ai Foer gave Zhang Bin a warm hug.
"Hey, buddy, I've washed it."
Zhang Bin motioned to him not to hug him too tightly.
"What a boring guy."
Ivor walked in and found two cups on the table.
"Someone has been here."
"That guy Shi Weide is leaving tomorrow.
He just came here to say goodbye," Zhang Bin said.
"What did he say?"
Ivor asked.
"I didn't say anything."
Naturally, Zhang Bin wouldn't say anything about cooperation, but it seemed that there was no need to say it, because Ivor didn't care about such things.
"You know what I just told you, I may have endless investments in the next few days," Ivor said helplessly, "This feeling makes me feel beautiful."
"Be careful not to be deceived.
You know our plan.
We will not take out another penny within this year, otherwise you should not think about a penny of dividends at the end of the year," Zhang Bin said seriously.
Ivor poured himself a glass of wine and clinked it with Zhang Bin, "In order for me to get the dividend, let's have a drink."
"What if someone invests?"
Ivor laughed.
"Who?"
Zhang Bin asked with interest.
"Chase Bank, you know, they have a lot of money," Ivor said with a mysterious look on his face.
"Chase Bank" Zhang Bin was a little unsure, "How could they invest in us?"
Ivor smiled and said: "We are a hot spot for investment now.
With so many financiers gathering together to study how to make money, do you think other people will think that we will do loss-making business?
This year, when the subprime mortgage crisis broke out, no one's business It’s easy to do, but they also need to find new investment directions, isn’t it?”
Zhang Bin was hesitant.
It seemed too risky to cooperate with giants like Morgan and Chase.
What kind of existence is Chase Bank?
It manages more than 700 billion U.S. dollars.
It is the largest credit card issuer in the United States.
It is a giant in the investment world.
Chase Bank is mainly composed of three parts.
The first Chase Manhattan Company, which has been renamed Chase Bank of America at this time, is the largest bank in the United States.
The second part is J.
Morgan & Co., which was originally established in London as a British merchant bank and later developed into a prestigious financing company.
The third part is Fulinming Group, a global investment banking group based in London.

In 2000, the three companies officially merged to become J.P.
Morgan and Chase.
Just this year, Chase Bank successfully acquired Bear Stearns, the fifth largest investment bank in the United States.
This is a big deal.
You must know that the transaction between them may exceed 30 billion US dollars.
As for the most recent, Chase Bank spent $2 billion to acquire Washington Mutual Bank.
At a time when most investment banks are seizing the time to collect funds in their hands, J Morgan is seizing the time to make acquisitions everywhere.
This is also a sign of worry about having too much money.
The fourth update and the fifth update are posted together
