Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty, The Potential Girl Who Buys Treasury Bonds
"Then let's get back to the point," Alice said after the embarrassing laughter ended. "What are your plans for this $300 million government funding?"
Everyone knows that they must avoid private transactions of famous officials and businessmen in all aspects. If they are allocating funds to government contractors, then everything is normal, but the current situation is to accelerate the development of Blackwater International in order to accelerate the end of the Iran-Iraq War and greater interests in the future, and tie it to the giant chariot of the Ministry of National Defense. Then, the name of this support fund must be carefully considered.
"We have listed six options in total," said Minister Weinberg. "For example, plan a, the government directly acquires your company; the advantage of this is that it allows the Ministry of Defense to invest directly, but the disadvantage is that over-engaging in official colors will put the cart before the horse."
"Then there is Plan B, which will be discussed by members of Congress to encourage venture capitalists to invest in your company, that is, financing behavior under direct government supervision. Of course, the relevant companies will definitely be insiders, but I can't reveal too much to you now."
"There is another plan c..."
"Maybe we can sell some Treasury bonds privately." Alice interrupted: "Three-month and six-month Treasury bonds are auctioned every Monday. As for the price, Treasury bonds have a history of hundreds of years. Of course you know it very well. Just like option stocks, you can use internal prices to buy some before the auction, and then sell them out to earn the difference after the auction. Wouldn't this be enough funds?"
Weinberg raised his eyebrows: "We have never considered this method, Mr. President?"
Although they were giving Alice money, it was much more complicated than simply investing in the Ministry of Defense. Everyone immediately focused their attention on Reagan.
"Treasury debt," Reagan said slowly for a moment of silence: "Alice, do you want to develop into the Wall Street field?"
It was like a funny scene, and the people at the table turned their heads in unison, and they turned their attention to the girl in the last seat again.
"The power of finance is very terrible," Alice smiled calmly and said, "I know that if you want to take this route, you will inevitably say hello to many Wall Street masters. You can give me the specific work in this regard directly. You only need a House of Representatives who is worth enough to be the introductor. Mr. Weinberg..."
She looked at the Secretary of Defense and said, "Maryland is so large. I believe that the current member of Congressman Ronald Mark must have close contacts with Lockheed, and New York State Councilor Congs is more sure to have close ties with Wall Street. With the two of them here, it should be easy to connect with each other, right?"
The soldiers might be a little confused, but Reagan smiled even more satisfied.
The two congressmen were guaranteed, and the arms giant Lockheed was brought up, and then vaguely revealed that this was a higher-level will, which could indeed allow relevant investment banks to cooperate with the actions of the Ministry of Defense. During this whole process, Alice herself promised to deal with the bank tycoons in person, and she would inevitably have some contact with the Ministry of Commerce. It was a beautiful plan that killed two birds with one stone!
Connections are extremely important at any time, isn’t they?
Weinberg, who immediately came to his senses, and even the two generals present with four stars on their shoulders, nodded to Reagan.
She is indeed a girl worth cultivating. Although it is worth noting about race, she is not a rootless person who just studied abroad from the other side of the ocean, or who just received a green card to come to this capital.
Of course, the most core reason is definitely the potential value of Cisco and the threat Alice had just now worked again.
Since ibm exposed such an accident in March last year, the Ministry of Defense certainly could not be idle. While the judicial department was harassing the company every now and then, the people from the Information Technology Security Department were also desperately strengthening the security level of the military network and constantly obtaining more follow-up investigation reports from the F-force. In this whole incident, the role played by Cisco and Alice became increasingly obvious.
It can be believed that if Alice had not been suspicious through company orders and her capable technical cooperation, no one would have discovered the behind-the-scenes of Microsoft's listing when it went public. Furthermore, if she did not expose ibm, then the financial world of the world would have been directly exposed to the company that had already been indisputable for once!
Furthermore, after the computer experts at the Department of Defense carefully studied all the details, they submitted a report to Weinberg and other executives.
First, Cisco's national trial production share and data from other almost unthreatening peers.
Second, the program code of Cisco products. According to experts' reports, the quality of its products far exceeds that of its peers, and the degree of code refining is far beyond the general level of the industry. Such a product and its code were made by Alice himself.
Third, computer experts from the Ministry of Defense can also invade the Nasdaq Exchange, but no one thought about doing this before. In other words, when the product "firewall" has not been widely used, the entire Cisco company and even Alice herself can invade the world's financial markets anytime and anywhere. The concept and R&D work of the firewall were proposed by Alice, and Cisco was responsible for it.
So there is no doubt that this girl is more important than the president!
I really don't know if I don't look at it, I was shocked when I saw it.
So the question is: Should such a character be erased or supported?
Any politician will make the same choice as long as his brain is not kicked by a donkey.
Well, yes, any politician, as for other capitalists... it seems that in the information technology industry, Alice herself is already a small big capitalist?
Well, okay, let’s leave the battle between capitalists to capitalists, and I just want to pick up thick and hug the thighs.
There are always more stories behind the scenes than those in the front desk. Alice doesn't know anything that has to be told between the White House, Congress and the Pentagon over the past year. Because she doesn't need to know at all, because politicians always have to win over capitalists, and all she needs to pay attention to is the problems in the mall.
So the agreement was settled, and the President will summon the Treasury Bureau and say hello. Considering that the people purchased Treasury bonds through financial institutions, Congressman Congs is also responsible for introducing Wall Street people to Alice. After all, only through the resale of bonds can the batch purchased at the internal price be sold at a high price, which is indispensable for the internal operations of relevant institutions.
The process was undoubtedly a lot of trouble, because Alice clearly wanted to use this as a springboard to get involved with Wall Street. For such a thing, the people of the Ministry of Defense certainly have an indifferent attitude, because the president and parliamentarians need to be busy, and they are only responsible for allocating funds.
As for the New York State Young Councilman Congs, who had just taken office for only two years, of course he was too happy to meet a rich man like Alice, a leading company in emerging industries. It was too late to thank him.
And Wall Street bankers are eager to get the unlisted Cisco iPos. Who wouldn't be happy to do Alice like this?
What a wishful thinking and analysis of these details President Reagan happily explained the past and after his wife the night he went home.
Of course, just when Reagan, who was coming home from get off work, had just returned to the White House from the Pentagon and talked about Alice to his wife and children, the girl herself sat on the dining table at Vice President Bush's house again.
"I know people from Wall Street!"
Bush raised his wine glass and said in a sharp voice: "You don't need to find Congs at all. I have a lot of connections on Wall Street, including Citi, Bank of America, Mitsubishi JR's branch, and..."
"George, we need to give Congs a favor."
Bush, the old man, cut the steak slowly. The pepper was a bit too much tonight, and the spicy smell could be smelled far away: "Our base is really Texas. When will Alice want to make a cowboy movie, it's not too late for us to help."
"Haha, thank you, thank you, actually, I really have a lot of material about cowboy movies. My father is an expert in American cowboy history."
Alice sipped a little fruit wine, and suddenly her eyes rolled: "By the way, George, since you said you know a lot of people on Wall Street, Grayson Company, do you know them?"
"Greyson?"
It is indeed a well-known company, and Bush Jr. immediately found a partner: "The company that invests in oil in August Grayson? Do you know it?"
"His son Conrad is my alumnus in Eaton. He just graduated this summer vacation. By the way, our family is so...
It was simply a good guy to change the topic. Alice suddenly looked at Bush with her eyes lit up and grinned: "Yes, George, please do a favor. I have a good sister who wants to go to West Point Military Academy. Please write her a letter of recommendation~"
“Western Point Military Academy?”
Bush Old Bush laughed silently: "One of your...best friends? What a great girl. No problem, of course there is no problem. Just a letter of recommendation. Do I want Weinberg to sign it together again? I think he will definitely be happy."
Nonsense, I just saved your life. I dare not sign it. Be careful to use a chakra scalpel to cut off your tendons!
With such a slander in his mouth and taking a little bit of fruit wine, Alice turned to Bush and withdrew the topic of the wrong building: "Yes, right, since we are talking about Grayson, let's talk about your Bush oil loss problem?"
Chapter completed!
