Skye's answer made the eyes of the major shareholder of General Electric a little stunned, and at this moment, he was really surprised by Osborne's big appetite.

Although it is said that the stock market turmoil has affected not only General Electric, but also many old companies have suffered the same setback, if someone puts the idea on General Electric and ExxonMobil at the same time, and intends to rob them at the same time, the first reaction of the major shareholders is to spray him.

The reason is simple, emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and just look at how difficult it was for Osborne to buy their shares at this time. Tens of billions of funds can be smashed to buy most of General Electric's shares at this time, and ExxonMobil, as the world's No. 1 oil company, although it has been hit by new energy companies led by Stark in recent years, but after all, its size is there, and if you want to buy it, you will only pay more than General Electric.

And now Osborne has done just that, and the only thought it gives to the majority shareholders is that Osborne must be crazy. If it's just General Electric, after all, the industry under GE and the Osborne Group have some intersections, taking advantage of the acquisition of GM now, as long as it can survive the next turmoil and impact, then the Osborne Group may be able to usher in a leap forward in development. ExxonMobil is different.

The oil industry is a sunset industry in today's world, and most of the world's developed countries have now begun to replace the traditional status of oil with new energy. So, nominally, ExxonMobil is still the world's largest oil company, but in reality, their market and prospects are already starting to decline.

Osborne, on the other hand, was holding a contract for Dr. Otto's nuclear solar technology at the time, so their development direction was also inclined to new energy. And in this case, those ExxonMobil will only be a chicken rib for them. It is almost impossible for them to get much benefit from ExxonMobil, and on the contrary, they will be dragged down by ExxonMobil and fall into crisis.

That's not a good thing, especially on these turbulent days. Maybe because of this extra burden, Osben will face the same situation as them. Of course, this kind of thing is not said by major shareholders. He would just smile and shake Skye's hand, and then say something heartily.

"Then good luck to you, and I hope you can take advantage of this opportunity to succeed."

"Of course, there is no doubt about that." With the same bright smile, Skye replied. And just after he finished greeting the major shareholder, the agent named Mark had already returned to her with a lot of contracts.

"No problem, Miss Johnson, we already hold forty-three percent of General Electric. As long as the negotiation with the bank is good, GE will belong to the name of the Osborne Group. Let's congratulate ourselves, and today Osborne will be the largest company in the world. Osborne will be a symbol of an era, and we are the initiators of this era. ”

Attorney Mark was visibly agitated when he spoke. And Skye can understand his excitement, in fact, even she herself has an illusion of unreality because of what she is doing now. That's how the famous General Electric became theirs? And such a behemoth as ExxonMobil?

Although he knew the reason for all this very well, Skye couldn't help but sigh at this time, the Stark government really played a big game.

That's right, everything was arranged by the Stark government. Don't know Tony either. How did Stark negotiate with the country on the other side, and he actually borrowed a huge amount of money from that country to impact his own capital market. And under this almost crazy capital impact, almost most of the old well-known enterprises have been affected to varying degrees. It's serious like General Electric, which was forced to replace a master home. And the easy ones will not be too easy, and the impact of capital makes them almost have to strangle their belts to live. It is conceivable that they will have to take a series of actions in order to survive next.

It can be said that if it were not for the fact that the financial and stock market turmoil was too targeted, it might have caused a national uproar like the financial crisis. And even if things haven't developed to such a point for the time being, all this is not something to be taken lightly.

The reason is simple, the consortium has not yet recognized the danger in this, and they have not yet made efforts. Again, all of this is only the first step in the Stark government's plan, and their follow-up actions will inevitably be more drastic than everything they have done so far, and the impact will be completely immeasurable.

The Stark government knows this in its own heart. But their current situation is ready to be attacked. If you don't take advantage of the situation to create a situation in your favor as soon as possible, then wait for those opponents to react, and it will only be them who are passive.

Passive and proactive, this is a key factor that affects the victory or defeat. As a leader, Tony's personality dictates that he wants to be the one who takes the initiative. So he didn't care about these effects at all, but resolutely started the next move.

"Is everything in place? Do we have enough capital to stabilize the next situation? ”

"At the moment, we have enough capital in our hands. Whether it's General Electric, ExxonMobil, which is controlled by the Osborne Group, or Johnson & Johnson, Wal-Mart, and other companies that we have capital control. We have all been given enough decision-making power and the right to speak. As long as there is no huge upheaval, the actions of these large corporations will be under our control. In other words, before the consortia could react, we had already cut a piece of meat from them. However, they should be about to react. ”

Maria, who had set up a special project team to monitor all this, replied, but in doing so, she also appropriately expressed her worries.

"Morgan and Rockefeller have begun to send contacts to liaise with the capital of the opposite country. You may say that you have an agreement with them, but there is no guarantee that they will not know anything from the mouths of those people. In addition, the banks under the names of various consortia have also begun to take action. I doubt they'll do anything to stabilize the stock market, or even reclaim the stakes in those companies. ”

"Don't worry about the bank. It takes time for banks to raise money, and they may not be able to raise that much money in such a short period of time. Besides, these companies are contributed by us because they need to raise funds in the stock market to maintain their basic operations. And now the situation is that we and Osborne have enough money to keep them running, and we can stop trading in the stock market for that time, so that the banks can't find a place to talk. ”

"It's going to be a lot of consumption, and we don't necessarily have a lot of time."

Maria. Hill reminded that she was aware of the current economic situation on their side. Although there are a lot of reserves, it is a few large multinational companies after all. Their consumption has always been huge, and even with their current funds, it may be difficult to support a long-term stalemate. A quick solution is the only way for them to solve the problem, but to solve these capital consortia with deep-rooted influence in this country, it is not something that can be solved by words. It's difficult, and right now, all Tony is doing is rising to it.

"You're right, we can't afford to drag on too much. But we can't afford to act rashly. Being fully prepared is the best way for us to deal with them. ”

Tony explained, and his heart began to think. The consortium is different from other enemies, and in the face of other enemies, they can destroy him on **. But in the face of such enemies of capital, they can only use the rules of capital and the force of law to judge them.

Therefore, the use of violence becomes an undesirable option in this war. Unless the other party uses violence first, they must not use such means. Because once they use such a precedent, not to mention whether it will trigger a war on the American homeland, it is already unimaginable for them to destroy the order on the American homeland. In a country founded on democracy and freedom, if the national government no longer plays its cards according to the rules and starts to be the first to trample on the rules of the country, then the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable.

The collapse of the system can sometimes be worse than the disaster that strikes. The current Indian government is an example of this, imagine if the Indian government still exists, would any Indian be willing to support such a government?

By the same token, if the Stark administration tramples on the consistent insistence of the United States, then he will completely lose the support of the Americans. And at that time, even if he can destroy all his enemies, in the end it will only be a self-defeating result. That's not something the Stark government can afford, so at this time, they can only play their cards honestly according to the rules.

And the first step to follow the rules is to go your own way and let your opponent have no way out! At this point, the Stark government has already begun to lay out, and everything they are doing now is just laying the ground for this layout.
