1818 [Efforts to cooperate]

Although Goldman Sachs Investment Bank has been established for a hundred years, its market value is not very high, only about 4 billion US dollars. To be honest, it is OK to buy it in summer, but those shareholders may not agree.

Of course, he didn't want to buy Goldman Sachs as a whole and turn it into his exclusive business. Because he bought a stake in Goldman Sachs, he wanted to use its power in the group of worries. If it became an exclusive business, he could still take advantage of the situation! So he could only try to hold as much shares as possible, which would not only become a major shareholder, but also not affect the operation of the company.

"Mr. Xia's bathing hope is really not small." Weinberg said with a cold smile when he heard this. He didn't expect Xia Tian to have such a big appetite, which was really a bit surprised.

"Ba Wang comes from strength." Xia Tian smiled, "Mr. Weinberg, don't you want to work with me?"

"..." Weinberg was stunned and nodded immediately.

With the strength of summer, it is more than rich to buy Goldman Sachs Investment Bank, so it is not surprising that you want to take more shares.

"Well, then okay, we will give you at most two percent of the shares." Weinberg said immediately.

Goldman Sachs Investment Bank's partners usually maintain around 300 people, absorbing a batch of fresh blood every two years, and in the past two years, old partners will be continuously eliminated to maintain the vitality of investment banks.

Among the partners, senior partners occupy the most shares, usually owning 10% of the shares. The other is general partners and limited partners, and the shares held generally do not exceed 1% of them. Weinberg promised to give Xia Tian 2% of the shares, but there are actually a lot of them.

But how could he satisfy Xia Tian’s appetite for two percent of the shares? He wanted to borrow the glory of Goldman Sachs Investment Bank and to work for the whole company, at least he had to get more than ten percent of the shares and become the largest shareholder.

"Haha. Mr. Weinberg, don't be so stingy. There is a Chinese saying, 'You can gain only if you give up'." Xia Tian smiled.

"Then what do you think I can get?" Weinberg asked curiously when he heard this.

"You should have heard of my story and know how high my investment vision is. Think about it, my investment vision, coupled with the funds from Goldman Sachs Investment Bank, how much money can we make." Xia Tian smiled slightly.

Although Goldman Sachs has a low market value, its funds managed by more than US$30 billion. Such a huge amount of funds can do a lot of things.

When Weinberg heard Xia Tian say this, he was stunned. He was very impressed by Xia Tian's accurate investment vision. In just four years, he earned tens of billions of dollars. Such a genius is really amazing.

If Xia Tian is really willing to share his investment strategy with Goldman Sachs, then Goldman Sachs' current capital amount can indeed make a lot of money. Even if it surpasses Morgan Stanley and Merrill Lynch and becomes the largest investment bank in the United States, it is quite possible.

"Are you really willing to share your investment strategy with us?" Weinberg asked immediately.

"It depends on whether it's worth it." Xia Tian smiled, "If I only account for two percent of the shares, what else can I say? It's better to keep it yourself and make a fortune. Even if I make less money, it's more profitable than telling you."

"Then how many shares do you want?" Weinberg nodded and asked.

If you only account for two percent of the shares, there is no need to share the cake with Goldman Sachs in summer. After all, Goldman Sachs only divides it by two percent after making money. It’s too little.

"At least forty percent." Xia Tianshi said.

"Impossible." Weinberg immediately shook his head and said.

"Why is it impossible? I can't afford the money." Xia Tian asked back.

"It's not a matter of money. Since the date of its establishment, our Goldman Sachs has no shareholders' shares of more than 20%. "Weiberg explained, "so that the major shareholders can avoid being alone and doing their own thing. So even if you can buy Qualcomm, I can't give you so many shares."

Xia Tian was stunned. Unexpectedly, Goldman Sachs still had such rules, which was really strange. However, after thinking about it carefully, I felt that this kind of company structure design also makes sense.

The so-called "one person is short, two people are long, and three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. Goldman Sachs restricts the shares of its partners, which means dispersing power and allowing all partners to participate in the operation, rather than being just a casual spectator. In this way, naturally, everyone does their best for the company and stimulates everyone's initiative to the greatest extent.

"Since that's the case, then 20 percent." He said immediately.

"This matter is too serious. I have to go back to the company to discuss it with other partners." Weinberg said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Xia Tian nodded, and he didn't expect Weinberg to reply to him immediately.

...

After visiting many people in the Worry and expanding their connections, we finally arrived on January 21, the day of the inauguration ceremony of the US President.

In the summer, they attended the ceremony with Wang Qixian. In the early morning, they had already started to prepare, and they went through security checks and arranged seats. In short, it was very complicated.

But the entire process of watching the ceremony was quite boring, just taking a swearing and giving speeches. They were all useless nonsense, and only idiots would believe these politicians’ words.

"Ah, it's not over yet, it's so sleepy~" Xia Tian yawned secretly.

In order to attend this ceremony, he got up at four o'clock in the morning to prepare and was busy until after ten o'clock. Now that he heard such a boring speech, he was really annoyed and felt that he might as well watch a monkey-playing person.

However, unlike Xia Tian's calm and cold-eyed viewing, the American people were quite happy about Lao Bushi's inauguration. It is said that as many as 300,000 people attended the inauguration ceremony. Looking down from the viewing platform, it was really crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, and quite shocking.

"Brother Tian, ​​have you cheer up? There is a reporter video." Wang Qixian saw his impatient look and quickly reminded him.

Perhaps because they are one of the few Asians on the viewing stand, or because both of them are very good-looking, the cameras responsible for live broadcasts on the viewing stand are frequently aimed at them.

"I understand." Xia Tian secretly yawned again, then straightened his body.

"Hey, Mr. Xia~" "It's really him!" "Wow, it's so awesome!"

In the hotel, Li Huatong and others could not get to watch the ceremony on site, so they had to watch TV in the hotel room.

When they saw Summer appear on the screen, they all screamed.

Although they had known for a long time that Xia Tian came to the United States this time to attend the inauguration ceremony, when they saw Xia Tian sitting on the viewing platform, surrounded by high-ranking officials and gentry, and politicians from all over the world, they were still a little shocked. For the first time, they clearly realized how powerful Xia Tian was.

"Mr. Xia is really amazing. He even participated in the inauguration ceremony of the US President. It's so amazing."

"No one in Hong Kong can compare to him, he is such a man among men!"

"Even the Governor of Hong Kong is not qualified to participate, but Mr. Xia can participate. Doesn't this mean that his power is greater than that of the Governor of Hong Kong."

"Although Mr. Xia's power is not greater than that of the Governor of Hong Kong, he has more money than the Governor of Hong Kong, and even more money than the Empress of England. If anyone marrys him, he will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life."
