Hollywood Hunter

I continued to talk a few words and listened to Bill Spurt introducing himself to lead a stock trading team in the First Boston. Simon asked with an examination: "So, Bill, please tell me what you said about the Daenerys Entertainment IPO. view."

Bill Spurt, who had calmed down, knew how valuable this opportunity was, forcibly calmed his mind, and thought a little: "Before Daenerys, I usually don’t recommend Hollywood stocks to my customers. Because of the great uncertainty in the film industry, the failure of a movie’s box office will often cause the stock price to plummet and the profit will be very unstable. The most successful aspect of Daenerys Entertainment is that this company relies The strong DC film universe and other series of film projects have largely resolved the strong uncertainty of the film industry. In addition, the diversified development of Daenerys Entertainment has also been very successful, which has made this company very resistant. Risk ability. Therefore, this IPO of Daenerys Entertainment will definitely be very successful."

Simon nodded slightly.

As a Hollywood outsider, even if Bill Spurt is prepared in advance, it is difficult to express this thorough insight without careful investigation and thinking.

With a smile on his face, Simon asked: "So, Bill, would you recommend Daenerys Entertainment's stock to your customers next?"

Temporarily called by his wife, Bill Spurt certainly cannot prepare in advance.

However, Daenerys Entertainment IPO is the biggest hot event on Wall Street recently. Bill Spurt is also responsible for the stock trading business. Of course, it is impossible to ignore it.As for whether or not to recommend this stock to his customers next, if not tonight, Bill Spurt has no idea whether he can continue to stay in this industry.

Strongly enduring without a wry smile, Bill Sprint said: "If I can get new shares from Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley at the issue price, I will definitely try my best to sell to the customers. If not, after the official listing, in the short term I Customers will not be advised to absorb from the secondary market, because Daenerys Entertainment’s stock will definitely be highly sought after by the market in the early stages of the listing, and the stock price will have an artificially high component."

Grace Spurt smiled and listened to her husband talking in front of Simon. When he saw the man's tone suddenly turned, he couldn't help turning his head to remind him and gave him a slight glance.

Even if you make sense, it is more than half as good as the previous paragraph.

Of course Simon would not mind, and asked again: "What do you think is the reasonable share price of Daenerys Entertainment?"

Bill Spurt said: "It depends on the specific operating conditions and external economic environment of Daenerys Entertainment. For now, the US stock market has opened a new round of bull market, and Daenerys Entertainment also owns DC movies. There are a large number of popular projects to be developed, such as Universe, "Jurassic Park" and "Mission Impossible." Therefore, in the next one to two years, the stock price can be bought within 35 times the price-earnings ratio, and the maximum should not exceed 40 times. "

Simon took a glass of red wine from the passing waiter tray, and when Bill Spurt finished talking, he didn't continue to ask, saying: "Very good, I hope you have a good night tonight."

After he finished speaking, he turned and walked away.

Bill Spurt watched Simon walk to a lady wearing a burgundy silk dress, recognizing that the other party was Westeros' wife, and quickly looked back.Noting that the wife beside him looked at herself with a little inquiry, she thought about it and said, "Westero probably thinks I am being cautious

Then he laughed at himself: "Or, he doesn't remember me now."

Although Grace Spurt doesn’t know much professional financial knowledge, she doesn’t hinder her practice, and Wen Yan gestures to the people around her: “But you don’t need to focus on Westeros at all, do you? "

Bill Spur nodded characteristically.

Just now the couple had a great conversation with Simon Westero, and the people around him probably already noticed.

Bill Spurt also calmed down completely at this time, looking a little in the crowd, and taking his wife to a short distance away, two middle-aged people were chatting. The two were the first Boston CEO Frank Walsh and Lawrence Fink, the head of Cersei Capital's Black Rock Asset Management Company.

Noting that the Spurs and his wife were approaching, the two middle-aged people who had been curious about their identity temporarily stopped talking.

Speaking of which, not to mention Frank Walsh, Lawrence Fink was also born in the first Boston.

However, compared to Bill Spurt’s squandering in these years, Lawrence Fink became the first dazzling young banker in Boston when he was just thirty years old. He founded and led a mortgage bond team with hundreds of people. Under the jurisdiction of the Securities and Exchange Department.

In 1988, the team led by Fink lost $100 million in one operation, which caused him to resign, but the Wall Street Golden Boy was soon recruited by Blackstone Group and immediately joined Cersei Capital.Now, the two-year-old Lawrence Fink of Bill Spurt is already a decisive capital tycoon on Wall Street.

Although they were all under the umbrella of the large business unit of securities trading, the high-profile Lawrence Fink did not know a small person such as Bill Spurt. Frank Walsh, who is above all, is obviously more so.

Bill Spurt took the initiative to shake hands and greet the two, and introduced himself again.

Hearing that Bill Spurt was a small grassroots supervisor in his company's securities trading department, Frank Walsh was obviously a little surprised, but quickly recovered as usual.Bill Spurt didn't talk much with his boss, who was several floors higher, left an impression after meeting him, and took his wife away.

It is enough to understand this.

The reason why Frank Walsh appeared here tonight is, in the final analysis, in order to narrow the relationship with the Westeros system and then win some business for the first Boston.

Bill Spurt, a small grassroots executive, can appear at a party where only Wall Street core executives can be invited, but this is enough to make people think a lot.If Frank Walsh remains indifferent, Bill Spurt has nothing to say.

After all, it was a high-end gathering of Wall Street tycoons. The Spurs were entertained at the party and left in a fun way without waiting.

After all, there is a lack of common topics.

Others are discussing how to short a country’s currency. Bill Spurt is only responsible for studying the stock movements of some companies. The gap is too large. Too much demand may be counterproductive.

The couple drove over separately. After drinking some wine, they took the initiative to find a substitute driver when they returned.

Nowhere along the way.

It wasn't until returning from one Greenwich to another Greenwich, entering the house, patiently waiting for his wife to see the two children who had fallen asleep, and sending the nanny away, Bill Spurt sat on the living room sofa and waited for his wife's explanation.

Simon Westero had heard of some things.

Grace finally made a pot of coffee and brought it to the living room, poured a cup for herself and her husband, and sat down directly beside him. She smiled and asked, "How do you feel?"

The wife sat next to him without any pretentiousness, and the familiar smell of perfume came beside him. Bill Spurt inexplicably relaxed a lot, holding the coffee in one hand and embracing his wife in one hand, said: "It seems like a dream ."

Grace said: "I'm a good advocate today to call you out. In case Westeros disgusts and even loses my job, I will ask you to support us in the future."

"of course."

Bill Spurt smiled, subconsciously guaranteed a word, but suddenly realized that he was able to talk to the group of Wall Street gangsters tonight, whether it was Simon Westero's sake.

If... he still has a tiger skin.

Grace is also thinking about how to explain the latest things, but she didn’t notice her husband’s strangeness, saying: “I was going to talk to you tomorrow, but I didn’t expect something tonight. However, Bill, let me remind you first. Those big guys have very high requirements for confidentiality, and then you know some things, and remember not to talk nonsense, otherwise our two little guys will be unlucky."

Bill Spur nodded, waiting for his wife to continue.

In Grace’s discourse, she has been trying to portray her relationship with Simon as far away as possible, quietly looking at her husband’s expression, and knowing that it has worked, she continued: “Probably at the end of last month, Westero took a few The woman, then put it to our company to help watch it. I won’t tell you whoever it is, lest you say that the leak is causing trouble. You can probably guess what the model agency is, I am a woman, so I was selected to be responsible for it. Several women’s agents."

Bill Spurt listened quietly, and some confusion arises in his heart.

Grace roughly guessed her husband’s thoughts, and soon went on: "I thought that was the case, but I didn’t expect, hey, don’t say anything next. Our boss, John Casablanca, was even among Westeros women. One of them moved his mind, and because Westeros had been sending someone to stare quietly, Casablanca failed to succeed and angered the other."

Bill Spurt asked subconsciously, "Isn't John Casablanca so stupid?"

Grace said: "Yeah, but that woman is too stupid. She didn't know that she was actually taken by Westeros. In Elite, of course, Casablanca is the biggest. I feel that the other side is likely to become a supermodel."

Bill Sprint immediately felt a little messy in it: "Then?"

"Then," Grace said, "Simon Westero found me and said he could give me resources to push me to the position of Elite President."

Even if it can't be compared with some corporate giants, Elite is the world's largest model agency anyway. What's more, the Westeros system seems to have nothing to do with Elite.For a moment, Bill Spurt couldn't understand how Westeros was going to push his wife to Elite's position, so he asked, "What is he going to do?"

Grace also shook her head and said, "I don't know further, but I have got some resources of the Westeros system now. You know the Victoria Secret show. The quota of every Victoria Secret angel is now I have got three places for the objects that the world's models are trying to compete for, which means that I hope to cultivate three supermodels in one hand. Because of this relationship, there is no accident. I may be promoted to Elite America in the near future. Vice President of the company."

Bill Spurt knew in a moment that if it wasn't tonight, the next step between him and his wife would open a big gap.

Grace patted her husband’s lap lightly and said, “Okay, I can only tell you so much. Then I went to Greenwich to send the information today, and I was just preparing for the party over there, and Westero casually invited me to stay. Now, I was going to come back to accompany the children to watch movies. However, thinking of this matter should be able to help you, I will temporarily call you over."

Bill Spurt hesitated and nodded, saying nothing more.

Grace glanced at her husband's expression and simply broke the tone with some teasing: "You don't think I have anything with Westeros?"

Bill Spurt's expression sagged slightly, and then learned Grace's tone: "I heard that Westeros likes mature women very much."

Grace lifted her hand on her husband’s shoulder, but turned serious, explaining: "I can't look down on me. Today, this is the second time I saw Westeros. The first time was the last one. At the end of the month, he called me over and gave me a few words on how to look after the women, and today, I went to send some information about the Victoria's Secret Angel candidate."

Bill Spurt couldn't help but ask: "Then why did he invite you to the party tonight?"

Grace said: "Probably to help me accumulate some contacts. Tonight, in addition to those on Wall Street, there are many seniors in the Westeros system. You know, if one day I become the president of Elite, because it is Wester Luo personally raised it and should be counted as one of the executives of the Westeros system. Moreover, the other party’s invitation is very casual, and if it is not for you, I do not intend to stay."

Bill Spur nodded characteristically, his body relaxed completely.

His wife has been so honest with him, and today it is obviously for his consideration, and he has taken a lot of risks. He feels that he is too uncomfortable to continue to doubt him.

Grace felt her husband's mood change, took a sip of coffee, and changed the topic in time: "Do you think the greeting with Frank Walsh tonight will work?"

Grace’s question immediately dragged Bill Spurt’s thoughts to the more urgent problems he faced recently, thinking about it: “Walsh’s ability is still good, he has determined to stay in this company integration Next, if you can’t go outside, someone will talk to me soon."

"Then, do you think you can go further this time?"

"Maybe..." Bill Spurt opened his head, and then he was not very confident, saying: "In short, it should be no problem to stay."

As long as they can stay, perhaps a little step forward, Bill Spurt can regain a foothold in the integrated Credit Suisse First Boston Group, at least, it seems that the retirement issue is not too big.After years of ups and downs, Bill Spurt has dared not expect too much.

Bill Spurt did not expect that the first Boston senior executive would react next week. On the next Saturday, the first Boston CEO Frank Walsh called himself and invited him to have lunch together .

Immediately, on Saturday night, the Spurs and his wife were invited to a first high-level reception in Boston.

The following Sunday, Bill Spurt started to cope with various calls and invitations from the morning.

This sudden turnaround made the couple a little unbelievable.

Eventually, when the new week arrived, Bill Spurt, who initially felt that he was only expected to take a little further responsibility for the head of the stock trading department of the stock exchange department, was directly informed that he might be promoted to become the next manager of the stock exchange department.

Although it is necessary to jointly control this department with another person in charge, this promotion has far exceeded Bill Spurt's expectations.

It should be known that the Securities and Exchange Department is a large business department within First Boston. Even after this integration, the total staff size remains over 1,000, and its sub-trading departments include stocks, bonds, foreign exchange, and commodities.Moreover, as one of the most important core business departments of investment banks, the future promotion potential is also great. The current first Boston CEO Frank Walsh was once the leader of the securities trading department.
