Chapter 548: Terrorist Attack
On the morning of September 11, 2001, EST, two hijacked civilian airliners by terrorists crashed into the World Trade Center in New York, the United States of America, the first building and the World Trade Center Building II, the two buildings were attacked after the collapse, the World Trade Center, the rest of the five buildings were also affected by the earthquake and collapsed and damaged.
This world-shaking “September 11th Incident” was reported by the world’s news media as quickly as possible. In his previous life, Masayoshi Kishimoto was still in high school. When he heard the news, he was overjoyed.
At this one time, Masayoshi Kishimoto’s cell phone, the phone in the president’s office, and the phone in the secretary’s office were all ringing. Instead of answering the phone, his first reaction was to hurriedly make an international call to Kobayashi Kiyoshi, who was far away in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina.
Masayoshi Kishimoto was afraid that he would be the first to leap out of the trenches clutching a machine gun as if he were an officer leading a charge. This was not the time for the Argentine financial crisis to break out.
He knew that it would have to wait until the beginning of November. The “September 11th Incident” will have a negative impact on the world’s economy, but it will be limited.
Kobayashi Kiyoshi picked up the phone, with an excited mood is the first to say: “Is not let me prepare to strike?”
“No, never. I was just afraid that you would do that, that’s why I personally made this one call to you.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said firmly.
Kobayashi Kiyoshi was instantly a little confused. In theory, this was the opportunity. The United States was one of the centers of the world’s economy, New York was one of the economic centers of the United States, and the World Trade Center building complex in New York was one of the economic centers of New York. A terrorist attack there is bound to negatively affect the world’s economy.
“This is simply not enough to shake the economic supremacy of the United States. To be precise, the negative impact of the terrorist attack on the U.S. economy is quite limited. Even if the event ripples out, it will still cause this shockwave to gradually diminish.”
Justice Kishimoto had known for a long time that the economic loss suffered by the United States as a result of this terrorist attack on its own country was 200 billion dollars, equivalent to 2% of its GNP for the year.
As for the world, that would be around 1 trillion dollars. Argentina’s economy was not at the top of the global scale, so even if it were to be apportioned, it wouldn’t get much of a turn on its head.
Kobayashi Kiyoshi realized that the chairman didn’t mean to prepare himself for a full-scale battle, so he couldn’t help but feel a little deflated in his heart.
His originally cheerful tone became lazy and said, “I will continue to pay close attention to Argentina’s national financial market.”
“You should not be too anxious. In my opinion, the time is not yet fully ripe, and there is still a need to wait patiently for some time.” Masayoshi Kishimoto soothed.
Kobayashi Kiyoshi could only lead the way, “Understood.”
“Since you are a financial hero, there will inevitably be a time to use you. Not to mention that you are one of my most capable subordinates.” Masayoshi Kishimoto encouraged.
Kobayashi Kiyoshi felt slightly better in his heart, after all, he was being given full recognition by the chairman. He had been working on this project from the beginning of the year to the middle of the year, and had spent a lot of time and energy on it, nine months of it.
So far, not much has been achieved. However, the president’s attitude was very firm, and did not terminate such a program, then he could not get out. He had to continue to carry out the Chairman’s strategic intent of infiltration.
“I’m sorry.” Kobayashi Kiyoshi really wasn’t currently being modest, but rather, he felt that his own personal performance this year just didn’t have a bright spot dao at all.
“You’re a smart person, so I won’t say much.” Masayoshi Kishimoto naturally understood what it meant to say that a loud drum does not need a heavy hammer. After he finished saying what he had to say, it was only then that he hung up this international call.
At this time, Natsume Ryosuke, seeing that he couldn’t get through to the chairman, hurriedly left his office and personally ran to meet the other party.
“The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in the United States were each collapsed by planes hijacked by terrorists.” Natsume Ryosuke said bluntly.
“I already knew that.” Masayoshi Kishimoto blurted out.
“Tomorrow morning, the stock market on our side is bound to drop.” Natsume Ryosuke said bluntly.
Masayoshi Kishimoto was not the slightest bit nervous. He was expressing his approval of such a common sense judgment made by Natsume Ryosuke.
“What are you going to do?” Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that the reason he had come running was that the Hard Gold Group’s acquisition of the Literary Spring and Autumn Publishing House had not yet been fully completed, he said.
“I may have been too cold in that one sentence. I also have to thank that group of terrorists. If it weren’t for them, it wouldn’t be possible for our side to be negatively affected by the American side.
The one major shareholder of the Literary Spring Publishing House that was the hardest to get, should have also succumbed! Just before I came to you, the other party made a special call.
If he doesn’t sell to us at today’s closing stock market price, then he won’t be able to sell at such a price even if he wants to sell first thing in the morning. What happens next is not guaranteed to be a recession.
He’s missing out on the best time to sell some of his Literary Spring Publishing shares. I want to squeeze his price a little more.” Natsume Ryosuke said seriously.
“Since I’m leaving this one to you, it’s an absolute trust and affirmation of you. If you want to make a price squeeze, you should seek out Inuyasha Kamiji to discuss it properly, not me. At this stage, you are the first in charge while he is the second in charge.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said without haste.
Natsume Ryosuke understood the other party’s meaning. The chairman wasn’t not caring, but showing that the other party wouldn’t intervene across the board, which meant that he fully trusted himself.
Before this, the chairman was giving himself a bottom line for the acquisition price. As long as the other party does not exceed the bottom line of the acquisition price, then it is a success.
If it exceeds the bottom line of the acquisition price, it does not mean that it will definitely fail. Only, they need to be in the clap before is towards the report to him, but also have to explain a series of reasons.
If the president feels that the price increase is reasonable, then it will be agreed. On the contrary, will not agree. This would mean that one’s own errand was unfavorable or a failure.
Of course, the less money one used to get this one done, then the more one would be able to show one’s value and ability to the company.
“I know how to do it.” Natsume Ryousuke said with a faint smile.
“It’s good to know. This terrorist attack is a very bad thing for some people. However, for others, why wouldn’t it be an opportunity?
Furthermore, isn’t it too boring to have nothing happen all year round? An uninteresting world does not bring opportunities, but an interesting world does.
The wise create opportunities, the strong grasp them, the weak wait for them, and the foolish miss them.” Justice Kishimoto said meaningfully.
