Silicon Valley
Chapter 97
Although the 16 banks are small in scale, they are not small in total, and have a wide coverage, which is no less than that of large banks.
What''s more, at the moment when the United States is in a banking crisis, Williams bank suddenly acquired 16 banks. As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation. Before Williams bank, it was like a nobody, but we suddenly found that it was not a nobody, but a fierce man hiding in the folk!!!
So he swallowed up 16 banks in one breath, making Williams bank famous in the financial sector!
At Henry''s instigation, there are many soft articles about Williams bank on the Internet, such as global online, ICQ and Isearch. After reading all kinds of soft articles and brainwashing, you will unconsciously think that Williams bank is the best bank in the United States! In the process of implementation, the big brick experts have come up with their own experiences and agreed that Williams bank is safe, reliable and trustworthy!!!
Of course, Henry paid for these bricks and beasts
After the dual brainwashing of the Internet and reality, many people will naturally accept Williams bank!
In addition, Henry also arranged a lot of people to pretend to line up to save money, while standing in line, while loudly praising Williams bank. If you don''t speak, it''s too bad. Others think there is a bank run... So Henry specially arranged for some people to carry money bags and yell to save money, so that others can understand it as soon as they read it.
The world has a herd mentality, others see so many people come to Williams bank to save money, so affected by it, they also come to save money! There are more and more people in the bank, and the team is huge!
The news was really a bit loud, which attracted media reporters to watch. The next day, it appeared in newspapers and TV!
As soon as the newspapers and television reported, Williams bank became even more popular. The next day, there was a long line at Williams bank!
Later, Henry''s companies announced one by one, "our company will choose Williams bank as a cooperative bank. Its employees must have Williams bank card, and their salary will be paid to Williams bank card!"
Henry has many companies under his name, including the newly established Silicon Valley electronics group, global land, Cisco, Nicholas group, global online, Isearch, ICQ, noah ark, West German publishing house, firefly game company, Galaxy film, Blackwater, Pixar, domain name management company, Weifeng capital investment company, Amgen biopharmaceutical company, etc.. Especially Cisco has a large scale, More than 300000 employees!
As a result, after Henry''s companies announced their cooperation with Williams bank one after another, they became very influential and caused a sensation in the United States. Williams bank''s momentum is unprecedented powerful!!!
For a time, the American people had full confidence in Williams bank, and they lined up to save money one after another!
Within a few weeks, the number of new depositors of Williams bank reached more than 10 million!!!
Originally, Williams bank had only 600000 depositors, but after acquiring 16 banks, the total number of depositors was only 600000! Now, Williams bank''s depositors are about to exceed 20 million, and its assets add up to more than 32 billion US dollars, ranking 21st in the scale of Bank of America! But in the current hot situation of Williams bank, there is no problem to advance a few more places!!!
Just as Williams bank was singing a song of triumph, the news of impending bankruptcy came from the Bank of New England. The Bank of New England ranks 33rd among American banks, with assets of more than 20 billion US dollars, but its own capital is less than 500 million US dollars. The Bank of New England, which had previously lent a lot to real estate, has now seen a sharp drop in real estate prices, resulting in a loss of 4. 800 million US dollars, which has exceeded the capital of the bank itself. Many bank analysts expect the Bank of New England to collapse.
In fact, it is true that depositors have lined up in the bank to take all the money away!
Bank runs are extremely serious, and bankruptcy is inevitable.
At this time, the mansion will collapse, who will turn the tide?!!
Williams bank said that it was very interested in the Bank of New England. As soon as the news came out, the run on the Bank of New England stopped immediately!!!
I have to say, Williams bank is awesome!!!
Later, newspapers and television analyzed and reported the incident.
"Williams bank is the fastest growing bank in the United States," the Los Angeles Times reported! At the same time, it is also the most recognized Bank of the American people! If Williams bank acquires Bank of New England, Bank of New England may come back from the dead
ABC television: "yesterday, the relevant person in charge of Williams bank revealed that Williams bank is very interested in the Bank of New England and is likely to acquire it! As soon as the news came, the run on the Bank of New England suddenly stopped. According to experts'' analysis, the only way out for the Bank of New England is to be acquired by Williams bank in the current situation. "
The Bank of New England received the news that its chairman, Mr. Godwin, immediately contacted Williams bank and said that he was very willing to be acquired by you. Then, take a group of people to Williams bank headquarters in person!
Henry shook his head and said, "what am I polite to ask for such a big bank to buy?"
"Two hundred million dollars, or not? Don''t pull it down! "
That''s what Henry said when Godwin came to negotiate with his team.
Godwin blushed and didn''t dare to say no, but he didn''t want to sell the bank at a low price, so he had to pretend to be poor and ask Henry to send him away. Henry left without a word! Later, it was announced that the negotiation between Williams bank and the Bank of New England failed. As soon as the news came out, there was a run on the Bank of New England, which was even more serious than before!!!
"Paralyzed, Bank of New England, can you sell it to Williams bank as soon as you can!"
"Sell it to Williams bank quickly, or you will refund it, I will not deposit it!"
People''s voices of denunciation, wave after wave, are all calling on the Bank of New England to sell it to the Bank of Williams quickly, and even threatening to run to the Bank of New England to smash the signboard. What bullshit! The Bank of New England, I want the Bank of Williams!!!
Godwin was stunned and scared!
If it goes on like this, the Bank of New England will fail in a few days! Then there is the auction of assets and the repayment. And they, the bank shareholders, can''t get a cent
Godwin is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot now( Is the book good? Good looking, please support it, to support the starting point website, collection, voting and so on can be!
