"The Germans are going to work hard, I guess the White House can't sit still, I think in two or three months, this side will have to roll up their sleeves and play, you have to be prepared. (If you like this book, please bookmark biquge.info)" Situ Nan reminded.

"Hmm." Robles nodded and agreed. After the United States declared war, Wall Street will also have a bloody storm, and the world situation will also change dramatically. It's better to plan ahead than to be crammed.

This is also a rare opportunity for Robles Securities, as for how to fish in troubled waters, Situ Nan believes that Robles has become familiar with it.

After the two finished talking about the securities company, Situ Nan turned his attention to the Bethlehem Iron and Steel Company, which he felt that New York was for Bethlehem Iron and Steel this time.

"By the way, the situation of the Bethlehem Steel Company you told me a few days ago has preliminary results, and it is not clear on the phone, what is going on?" Situ Nan asked.

"Hehe, I'm happy to talk about it." Robles smiled smugly and said, "Remember Jesse Livermore, the super trader in the company? ”

Seeing Situ Nan nodding, Robles continued: "Jesse went bankrupt for the third time and joined a small company on Wall Street as a trader, but because of his criminal record, the boss was afraid that he would take risks, so he only gave him permission to trade 500 lots of stocks.

This is a painful thing for a talented trader, and if Jesse loses it, he will not only lose his job, but also return to the embarrassment of being riddled with debt. So I poached him out of that company without much effort and gave him enough trust.

The first vote he did was for Bethlehem Steel. At that time, there was a war in Europe, and New York almost collapsed, so the stock prices of many companies fell in response. Among them is the Bethlehem Steel Company. After the New York stock market restarted, Jesse approached me and said I wanted to buy shares in the company.

I asked him how much he wanted to buy, and Jesse replied that more is better, and I remember that you asked me to buy a lot of arms and steel before you went back to Texas, so I left it to Jesse.

As a result, this guy was ruthless enough, with $3 million in one hand, he almost swept away the shares of Bethlehem Steel Company on the stock market, and a full 6% of Bethlehem Steel fell into our hands. When I bought it, it was only $45 per share, and now it has tripled or quadrupled. ”

"Huh. Jesse is such a genius that he did a good job, and the company should reward him with shares. But it's also adventurous, you have to watch it closely, otherwise you don't know that this wild horse will go crazy as soon as his mind is hot. ”

Situ Nan said. Situ Nan was very satisfied that Robles Securities could recruit a super trader like Jesse Livermore, but he also knew the sad end of Jesse Livermore, a genius, so he didn't forget to remind Robles.

"Don't worry, I know all the major events of the company, and no one can escape my eyes. But you're right, Jesse is adventurous, he's a gambler, and he can't afford not to pay attention. ”

Robles nodded, he knew Jesse Livermore better than Stuart.

"It's really good to be able to buy 6% of Bethlehem Steel at the price of cabbage, but this little bit of equity is not enough for us to control this company?" Situ Nan wondered.

He didn't know that if he had mentioned the company to Robles at the end of last year at the end of last year at the Merlon's Christmas, Robles would have sold the stock. After all, the steel industry is very hot now, and the original investment has tripled or quadrupled in two years.

It was precisely because Situ Nan had the heart to show his skills in the steel industry that Robles changed his attention, only to see him smile mysteriously: "6% is naturally not enough, but what if it is 16%?" ”

"Say, don't sell it!" Situ Nan urged.

This guy is so disappointing! Robles glanced at Situ Nan, and had to explain: "The later 10% of the shares were bought from the Wharton family in Pennsylvania, and I offered to exchange the shares of the American Steel Company of the same value for the shares of the Bethlehem Steel Company in the hands of the other party, but I didn't expect them to agree." So now we are the majority shareholder of Bethlehem Steel. Robles said excitedly.

Situ Nan nodded, in his opinion, although Bethlehem Steel Company is less than one-fifth the size of American Steel Company, it is undoubtedly cost-effective to exchange American Steel Company shares for Bethlehem Steel Company shares.

Rather be the head of the chicken than the tail of the ox, although the Bethlehem Steel Company is not as good as the United States Steel Company, but it is estimated that most people choose the former, let alone the ambitious Situ Nan.

"By the way, what about Charles Schwab? How did I hear you're negotiating with him? Situ Nan asked.

When I received a call from Robles, he said that Schwab insisted on meeting with him, otherwise these matters could be handed over to Robles to deal with, and there was a need to trouble himself running from Detroit, which was more than 500 kilometers away!

"Yes, I wanted to buy a stake in Bethlehem Steel from him, and try to take down this steel company in one fell swoop, after all, 16% is not enough for us to control this company, and he has agreed in principle to transfer part of the shares to us, but at the same time he made a request that made me embarrassed."

Robles paused, glanced at Situ Nan, and said, "He wants to merge Bethlehem Steel and California Steel!" And it's up to him to be the chairman! ”

"What?" Situ Nan immediately stood up when he heard this, "That old boy from Schwab really dares to think about it, does he want to annex his own California steel?" Situ Nan scolded secretly in his heart.

Hey? No, Situ Nan suddenly thought that California Steel Corporation has not yet been listed, and 80% of the shares are controlled in his own hands, if the two companies merge, then he will not become the largest shareholder? Isn't that the annexation of Bethlehem Steel itself? Pie in the sky again? Schwab isn't crazy, is he?

These questions turned around in Situ Nan's mind for a while, and after thinking about it, he felt that he still took advantage of himself. He calmed down and said, "Is there such a good thing? What do you think? ”

"I just can't see through calling you over, but if it can be done, it will be good for both parties, after all, the two companies don't have too much overlap in the scope of business, and they can complement each other.

Once merged, it will be second only to U.S. Steel and more than one-third in size! This will be a sensational event in recent years. But the only thing that is a little difficult is that Schwab proposed to be the chairman, and you are the largest shareholder, you see・・・・・・"

Robles said that California Steel was founded by Situ Nan, and there was no Robles stake in it, strictly speaking, it had nothing to do with Robles, so Situ Nan had to make up his mind about such a heavy matter. Of course, there were other factors, which Robles filtered in his mind and did not say.

"Take! If he wants to do it, let him do it! But I waited until we met. Situ Nan said arrogantly, he was looking forward to meeting the man who claimed to be "Carnegie second" and dared to slap the table with old Morgan.
