Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On September 15, after holding on for three more days, Merrill Lynch finally couldn't hold on anymore, and Bank of America issued a statement to acquire the third largest investment bank in the United States for nearly US$50 billion in cash and assets.

    As a result, Bank of America became the largest commercial bank in the United States and the largest securities company in the world.

    Merrill Lynch, as a long-established investment bank, has since disappeared.

    ¡°But compared to Lehman Brothers, they were already very lucky. At least there were no problems with the company¡¯s structure, people¡¯s jobs were saved, and their debts were repaid.

    ¡°The two investment banks collapsed like this, and everyone¡¯s attention was focused on Citibank, another bank with serious losses.

    In people¡¯s eyes, Citibank¡¯s losses are really too serious. From last year to now, it has lost tens of billions of dollars, which is definitely a burden that ordinary banks cannot bear.

    ¡°That is to say, Citibank¡¯s solid foundation prevented it from collapsing immediately. But now that the subprime debt crisis is violently turbulent, Citibank seems to have no reason to continue to hold on.

    But two days after the weekend, Citibank announced a piece of blockbuster news with great fanfare.

    Citibank Executive Vice President Jabil announced that Citibank has reached an agreement with Fairy Company. Citibank will invest US$15 billion to purchase 5% of the shares of Dreamstars. Citibank will become the second shareholder of Dreamstars after Xiao Qi!

    At the same time, Citibank also released a report, predicting that for the remaining three months of this year,!  It is expected to receive dividends of US$1.8 billion next year!

    As soon as this news came out, the financial industry around the world was shocked!

    ¡°If you know this data from Citibank, there may be some moisture in it.  But with such huge profits and the acquisition of such a big golden baby, Citibank has since become the focus of everyone's envy!

    The three major rating agencies, which received some benefits and took shares in some of Citibank's subsidiaries, took advantage of the situation and raised Citibank's credit rating.

    This is also Citibank, which has had its credit rating downgraded three times in the past year.  It is a company that has stopped falling and rebounded for the first time, and is rated as a "cautiously recommended hold" company.

    ¡°Professionals all think so, let alone ordinary people.

    Everyone knows how profitable Xiao Qi¡¯s dreampad and dreamstars are.

    Just take a look at the Fairy Direct Store, which has never been in stock, and you will know what are the most popular and top smart electronic products in the world.

    Dreampad is a little better, after all, the market for smart tablets is only that big.  And 20% of the shares have already been divided.

    But Dreamstars is different. Since its listing at the end of last year, it has been held by Xiao Qi alone. Only Xiao Qi enjoys such huge profits that countless people are jealous of.

    Now Citibank can also share in Dreamstars¡¯ dividends.  This means that Citibank has another very good asset.

    Not only are the profits attractive, the valuation of Dreamstars is also rising all the way.

    When Dreamstars was first released last year, its valuation exceeded US$100 billion. As Dreamstars defeated challengers a1600 and n80, its valuation has directly reached US$200 billion.

    Now based on Citibank¡¯s purchase price estimate, Dreamstars¡¯ valuation is as high as 300 billion U.S. dollars. It is definitely a great miracle that a smartphone brand can rise to its current level in 10 months!

    ? But whether it is a professional or an ordinary person.  No one thinks that 300 billion US dollars is the ultimate number for Dreamstars. Just look at how huge the smartphone market will be in the future, just look at how many people around you are starting to use smartphones.  As one of the two kings in the smartphone market and the most popular endorsed product, Dreamstars will only become more and more popular in the future, and its valuation will also get higher and higher!

    The value is constantly growing, and the annual dividends are extremely generous, for such unlisted company shares.  To describe it as a golden doll is definitely not an exaggeration!

    As the first Citibank to buy Dreamstars shares from Xiao Qi.  As expected, the outside world has dubbed it a company that is ¡°super visionary,¡± ¡°super capable,¡± and ¡°super capable of execution.¡±

    For a time, the aura of dreamstars.  Directly dispelling the shadow of bankruptcy hanging over Citibank, Citibank once again showed the world its strength as a long-established multinational bank!  !

    When the market closed that day, Citibank's stock bucked the trend and rose amid the bleakness.

    As the leading figure in promoting this acquisition, Jabil¡¯s vice president has become a star figure and frequently appears in various news pages.

    Everyone is guessing what the vice president of Jabil is.??I persuaded Xiao Qi, a stingy guy, to come up with Dreamstars shares. You know, Xiao Qi didn't even think about selling Dreampad shares.

    But no matter what, Jabil's ability has been greatly praised - he can do things that even countless top financial institutions and investment companies cannot do. What is this if not ability?

    Some TV stations even revealed that the current president of Citibank will retire next year, and the vice president of Jabil, who has made great contributions, will take his place.

    ¡° Leaving aside Citibank, which is showing signs of coming back from the dead, Xiao Qi¡¯s troubles have just begun.

    "I said Xiao Qi, are you too boring? We have been friends for so long, and you said I didn't tell you that you must think of me when you sell your shares in Dreamstars? Didn't I just say it once?  I don¡¯t care, I will call you the money tomorrow, and you must give me 2% of the shares!¡± It was Oracle¡¯s chairman Larry Ellison who said this.

    "Qi Shao, my father asked me to tell you that our family, the Zheng family, and Fourth Uncle Li each intend to buy 1% of Dreamstars shares. Can you help them?" Li Xiaochao became his father.  The messenger.

    "Blackstone Group has always been your loyal friend, Qishao. If you give us 5% of the shares of Dreamstars, we promise to clarify the relationship between the Department of Commerce and Congress in the United States and will not let others target you!"  Blackstone Group CEO Swartzman said this.

    "Qi Shao, Mr. Buffett asked me to ask you, can he also take part in the sale of Dreamstars shares this time?" Tong Wencong said shamelessly.

    "Xiao Qi, I really don't have much money now, but I can still afford 1% of Dreamstars shares. You know I have a son and a daughter. It's not good to give only Dreampad shares to my son. I still need Dreamstars shares."  Give the shares to your daughter!" Richard Branson said shamelessly.

    "Qi Shao, we have always had a happy cooperation. lvmh wants to pass on this friendship more firmly. If you want to continue to sell Dreamstars shares, no matter how much, please give me a word!" France's richest man Berard was very  Said domineeringly.

    ""

    Many people with similar friendships called Xiao Qi, eager to express their desire to join Dreamstars¡¯ wealth sharing.

    Dreamstars¡¯ valuation of US$300 billion seems to be a sky-high price now, but considering that the development of the entire smartphone industry is inevitable, according to Dreamstars¡¯ leading fashion, according to Fairy Company¡¯s R&D capabilities, Xiao Qi¡¯s genius  Wizards, this investment is still very valuable.

    Because the development potential of Dreamstars is greater than that of Dreampad, and the market will be larger, Xiao Qi is not prepared to sell shares at 5% this time.

    It¡¯s not that others don¡¯t have that much money to buy it, but that Xiao Qi can unite more people.

    They could not imagine how much Xiao Qi was going to give out this time.

    30%!

    It¡¯s not that Xiao Qi is stupid. Dreamstars makes so much money, why should they stupidly share it with others?

    It¡¯s because Dreamstars is so profitable and has such a huge impact on the smartphone industry, so Xiao Qicai can¡¯t be the only one, he can only share it with everyone.

    Otherwise, although the steamed buns are delicious, your belly is not that big and you will suffer the consequences if you overeat.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Everyone will feel a little bit envious and jealous to a certain extent, but one person occupying it and making money with a group of people are two different concepts.

    Especially if many giants from developed countries are involved, it will be difficult for developed countries to set restrictions on Dreamstars. After all, they also have a share of the profits here.

    Even if no giants are involved in some countries, the combined power of more than a dozen giants and super-rich people still makes them dare not act rashly.

    If it were Xiao Qi alone, the situation would not be so optimistic.

    Especially the higher the market share of Dreamstars and the more profits it earns, the greater the possibility of being restricted.

    So taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Qi took advantage of the situation and divided some of the shares of Dreamstars, which can not only maintain the rapid development of Dreamstars, but also unite more forces to stand by his side and protect the entire Fairy Company.  (To be continued)
