Chapter five hundred and sixty-three, the big movement on the east coast
In the fifty-two states in the United States, each state has a governor and corresponding Senate. Considering that not all congressmen and governors have been able to end their term in a steady way for a century, so today, there will be events of governors and members of the United States changing every year. From local to central areas, from state legislatures to Capitol Hill level institutions, from tabloids from various places to Washington Post media, all politicians live very lively dates every day.
For some economically developed continents, even though they are geographically separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, their connections are still close.
The most likely person in California to take over as governor was Peter Wilson who lost to the judicial examination many times. The news spread to New York State quickly. The root cause of this news was that many people saw him and Alice Wang had a twenty-minute intimate conversation at the Republican gathering.
Of course, East Coast people have always liked to be high-profile about what happened on the West Coast, especially New York locals, who are eager to show their superiority from every angle. People have to admit that Peter Wilson has found a big customer for his position as governor. If all members of the Alice Building are mobilized, his approval rating will definitely be particularly strong than his opponent by five percentage points.
But if it is the election of the governor of New York, of course, including the election of senators to the DC, it still has to rely on the traditional Wall Street power rather than her super big new money with a Chinese background. Look at how many skyscrapers in Manhattan, how many world-wide large enterprises and financial institutions are? Although Alice Wang is very fashionable in California, she has to pretend to be a grandson when she goes to Wall Street!
This idea will be fine until at least May.
It was not until that big news in the real estate industry that finally passed its incubation period.
The company, also established by Alice Wang, was registered in London, England. It acquired a large piece of vacant land between the south of Manhattan and the north of the lower city area with amazing money. This involved the company's inherent assets, bank loans, institutional venture capital, celebrity luxury enterprises' cooperation investment, and the total amount of funds was huge and the purchase of land was wide, which was rare in the entire Manhattan real estate history.
So the question is, vanda suddenly purchased such a large area of bordering land, what exactly should it do?
Unlike the current Japanese real estate bubble that can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye, but it is hidden from all Japanese. The US housing market has fluctuated by only 10% in a century, which was only 20% when the Great Depression in the 1930s. Unlike the situation in Eastern countries, real estate in the United States is really just a financial commodity. No one will spend a lot of money on his fortune, and naturally there will be no bubble effect that goes up and down.
Therefore, Alice Wang's amazing investment was naturally to make money in the financial field, but as many people expected next.
Demolition.
Then, the New York Times officially published an article that the construction of Manhattan Vanda Square began, and twenty-one skyscrapers were planned to be built to embrace the 21st century.
During the morning rush hour, before work, during lunch break, and after get off work, many office workers and corporate executives have the habit of reading the New York Times. This is why it is well known in less than a day.
Whether it is an ordinary office worker, a company executive, or even a more senior rich man, everyone's first reaction after seeing this news was surprised. What is the concept of building twenty-one skyscrapers in Manhattan!
Of course, of course, for a truly large group, billions of dollars in real estate investment is not very amazing. Just like the famous real estate tycoon in recent years, Donald Trump, who has been operating his own real estate empire, has also purchased a single building in Manhattan as its headquarters, and it is the tallest building in the past!
But being able to do it does not mean that someone will do it, nor does it mean that when such news comes out, others should not be surprised. Especially this news is not an old qualification consortium, but brought by Alice Wang, the super upstart on the West Coast!
Just think of Donald Trump, a celebrity who lives in the New York circle all day long. As soon as he graduated from college, he worked in a real estate company founded by his father. Although he assisted his father in managing his business every summer vacation during his four years of college, he was unwilling to stay in Queens, New York City, where his life was narrow. He would rather move to the bustling and lively Manhattan alone and meet many wealthy and powerful political and economic celebrities in the high-level social circle. Facts have proved that this is indeed of great help to his future development of his real estate career.
In this way, he has been in charge of his father's real estate company since 1971, and was well-known in New York at the age of 34. As of today, in 1990, his personal wealth has successfully won a huge sum of $1.7 billion. Even though it inherited the company of his father's business, the residents of Manhattan's Upper East Side have seen its real role.
All right.
Personal assets are $1.7 billion, so don’t worry about how much shares it occupies.
It is indeed much worse than Alice Wang. Not to mention the comprehensive evaluation, Microsoft and Cisco will pick up one of them, and their shareholding will be as good as Trump.
Both of them are top upstarts who start businesses in Manhattan, and they are both real estate. The residents of the Upper East Side can’t help but sigh after just a little comparison. Trump has inherited his father’s business and has been working hard for nearly 20 years, and then he has the real estate empire and value of this scale. But look at Alice Wang, he just started his business six years ago in May, and he just started his real estate industry last year. He once thought it was a fun thing, but now?
To count it, if this Manhattan Vanda Square is really built, its individual value will be almost equivalent to the entire Trump Group...
The initial surprise and envy came soon to the stage of understanding and analysis. According to this big news, the media itself and many industry insiders also conducted reverse investigations through their own channels. After all, not everyone will always pay attention to the news in the Manhattan real estate industry. They will only be aware of the latest changes in the relevant fields when the news is officially published.
Moneying some stocks is the first step in Alice Wang's financing, but it is not a big sell-off. Compared to her overall share of Microsoft and Cisco, that little bit of proportion is really insignificant. But thanks to the booming development trend of these two companies in recent years, hundreds of millions of dollars of cash were easily obtained.
Then there is the loan. Based on the potential for rapid development over the years, Wall Street banks were happy to pay advances when she built the Alice Building, and the facts also proved that the upstart girl really lived up to expectations. So when she decided to build a big project in Manhattan, Citi, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, and even Standard Chartered and UBS couldn't help but get involved, wanting her to provide some loan interest.
It is not surprising that the principal and the loans added to attract more investments from institutions and celebrities. Not everyone can check the information so carefully. Anyone who can find it can easily dig out the behind-the-scenes of certain institutions and names from the information, and which big shots are standing there.
Lockheed has invested. Although its market value is average, the profit margin of arms sales is the highest in most industries. Some industry insiders have speculated that if the yf-22 bid hits, Lockheed will definitely make at least 50 million net profit from each plane - this is all cash. Since Alice-Wang can tell such a rich man that he can throw 300 million or 200 million at will, isn’t it enough to make her return satisfied?
When a businessman reached a certain level, every major action must be far-sighted. Many people quickly concluded that Alice-Wang was going to advance on the East Coast on a large scale.
The company registered in the UK is not only vanda, but also a protective umbrella. Although the pharmaceutical company selling magic weight loss drugs has not even been established for a year, many people are looking forward to its listing. For both of them, it is simply natural to settle a branch across the Atlantic Ocean and settle in Manhattan, and these are both real century-old industries!
So soon, invitations crossed the central plain and mailed them from the east coast towards the west.
“There are these things every day…”
When Monica brought the latest batch of letters to her, Alice didn't raise her head and said, "Just deal with it as usual."
"Actually, it is necessary for you to participate in many high-end forums and determine that they will be destroyed?"
"I don't have time to be the socialites who have been drinking and chatting all day long, Monica, and give me the school funding plan."
Monica nodded, then stepped back, and soon forward.
Alice sat on the office chair and stretched her body lazily.
Then he turned down the chair and faced the floor-to-ceiling glass windows behind him.
In fact, after watching for a long time, it feels more like looking down at Manhattan at a high altitude.
Los Angeles...is a Princess Taiping?
When she was free, Alice began to calculate the similarities and differences between herself and traditional Silicon Valley people. In fact, it was very simple. Microsoft, Apple, Google, Amazon, everyone is basically a technician, and they are inevitably infected with some middle school ideals that change the world. The extremely stinky saying "I didn't think about making much money, I just wanted to contribute to mankind, and I made it inexplicably" is theirs.
But Alice asked herself, she was a real big capitalist.
What you want is to see all the mountains?
So, the overlooking view of Los Angeles is really not very good.
"But I've been drinking and chatting with the famous gentry in the Upper East Side all day long... Haven't I been disgusted in the past two months?"
It was rare that such a concentrated social interaction in the past five or six years had already annoyed her.
"Oh, it's normal. After all, I'm a technical genius. I'm standing with a group of middle-aged uncles and gossip girls, and I can't talk to each other at all."
After complaining for a few words, it was over. Monica was walking forward with the plan she wanted.
Chapter completed!
