American Fortune Life

New York State, "Whoever you are, only guests with members can play here.” The National Golf Course in the United States has a spectacular view and, more importantly, a very strong private space for its members.

Andy walked down from the helicopter, slightly depressed, and his trench coat was hunted by the wind from the propellers, walking fast to the club's luxury estate.

Jeff Yimert, CEO of General Electric, stood behind Ben in front of the entrance to the estate and watched Andy Smith smile as he walked up with all his tall horses and cold bodyguards. His face smiled faintly and he reached out to greet him.

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Jeff.” Andy shook his hand with no apologies.

“No, I just got here, too, please... Where's your gear?” Jeff didn't see Andy with the golf gear, so he asked with a smile.

“Oh, I won't fight today, let's just find a place to talk about business directly, to be honest, I'm busy now, I only have an hour, I have a meeting later... ”

Andy shook his head with a smile and opened the door and said, "He doesn't have time to waste peeling time with each other.

The corner of Jeff Imert's mouth clearly twitched, his expression changed, and he finally squeezed an ugly, weird, helpless smile. “Your handwriting is quite small these days," he said. "You'll be really busy acquiring the Miami Herald, The Los Angeles Times, and Starbucks in a row. “

“Who says no, it's not, it's just a meeting later to determine the acquisition of Yellowstone Club, hey, there's no way, the financial storm caused the dollar to depreciate and I had to swap cash for assets as soon as possible.” Andy laughed helplessly with a very concurring nod.

Jeff Imert had a slight twitch in his entire face this time, and he couldn't speak of envy or envy.

In the talking room, the two people walked into the club side by side, led by the waiter, to the viewing platform on the second floor, surrounded by clusters of flowers, a round table and chairs in the middle. After the two people sat down, the waiter quickly delivered two cups of hot coffee.

Tsk...

“Nice coffee here.” After Andy took a sip of coffee, his mouth curled slightly and he sighed softly, looking at Jeff Imeldt, who nodded and continued to laugh: “I'm a little embarrassed to say, to be honest, I didn't expect the end of the negotiations to have such a huge impact on you GE, hey, the impact of the financial storm is really too great, I don't know when it's going to rage.

But now that we're partners, I'm sure NBC Worldwide will come out of the valley with our cooperation. ”

“Oh...” Jeff Imert held his left hand beneath the table tightly in fist and then let go, squeezing a grin on his face, laughing twice, looking at a sincere Andy Smith, could not help but punch this hypocritical, disgusting, handsome face.

Pressing his inner hold and anger, Jeff took a deep, dark breath, converging a smile on his face, and said seriously and seriously, “Andy, let me get this straight, NBC Worldwide, are you still interested in buying? ”

Andy seemed to be stunned first, then his eyes looked at Jeff, and then the corner of his mouth slowly began to curl up, smiling on his face and laughing softly.

“Oh, of course I'm interested, but a full takeover, I'm afraid I can't do it, not that much money. ”

Andy's face stretched open helplessly, and there was a look of anguish and helplessness on his face.

Jeff Imert smiled, his expression didn't change a bit, his eyes sharp and Andy looked at him with a smile, and smiled slightly: “$17 billion, NBC Global is yours! ”

Andy's pupils shrunk slightly, the smile on his face dissipated, his face looked lightly at Jeff Imeldt's smile on his face and said faintly: “I don't have that much money, and I think mergers and acquisitions are the best solution if I can... ”

“No, no, Andy, our board of directors has decided that GE will listen to investors, start the reform, NBC Worldwide 80% of the shares will be sold in one go, as friends and, of course, most importantly, we still have an agreement between us, so we at GE would like to ask you what you intend to do first.

If you're not interested, we'll announce to the public that we're looking for new buyers, and you know that Concaster Group is very interested in acquiring NBC Worldwide, not to mention that this price is really very cheap, and I'm sure a lot of people will be interested. ”

Listening to Jeff Imert, looking at his smile, Andy's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, but quickly unfolded, and although the expression on his face did not change much, his heart resented him.

Obviously, the other party was unfavourable, and neither Andy's own cash nor leveraged acquisitions were what Andy wanted.

Using his own cash acquisition would undoubtedly disrupt his subsequent acquisition plan, cutting his cash flow straight in half and potentially adding some risk to Qualcomm's acquisition plan.

Using leveraged acquisitions, NBC Worldwide, which is already in debt of $5.1 billion, will undoubtedly increase the amount of NBC Worldwide's debt after another debt acquisition, which will not bring benefits to NBC Worldwide for a long time.

With his eyes slightly squinted, his mouth slightly curled, his heart grinned, and Jeff Imert looked at Andy Smith's tangled eyes. He was in a great mood. To be honest, he had long been unfamiliar with the young man's madness in his chest.

Aren't you the king of cash?

Aren't you ambitious?

Didn't you buy cash everywhere?

Let's see if you'll be so aggressive after smoking out your cash flow!

“Oh, this deal is too big, to be honest, I need to think about it... ”

“No problem!” Reversed the initiative, Jeff Yimert smiled and said directly, interrupting Andy's speech, and then watched Andy continue with a slight smile: “But you also know that our GE stock price is really low right now, investors are complaining, and the board wants to boost the stock price by selling NBC Global, so there's not much time left for me, three days, I'll give you three days to think about it and get ready.

Andy, I really hope we can make this deal, and I'm waiting for the good news, so I won't take up your time, I'll wait for your call... ”

Jeff Imert had a very happy and brilliant smile on his face, reaching out and slightly expressing Andy shook his hand, smiling and nodding his head and saying goodbye without dragging the mud.

Andy's expression changed slightly, his mouth pulled, his eyes squinted, his sharp eyes watched Jeff Imeldt's back disappear, and he could clearly listen to the hallway and the other party laughed happily and gently.

“Hoo--”

Andy took a deep breath, sat down, picked up the coffee on the table, squinted his eyes, drank the coffee and watched the vast golf course. He was defeated by the other general, but quickly smiled.

The helicopter landed on the apron on the top floor of the Gaia Building, and Andy stepped off the plane and quickly walked to the elevator, where he had already called while on the road, when his think tank had started discussing and researching in the conference room.

Spending all the cash in your hands is absolutely not going to work, and the cash flow is absolutely not going to dry up, which will strain all Andy's indebted companies on the way forward.
