The sunset, half of the head poked out between the gaps of the skyscrapers, slowly fell, and finally disappeared at the end of the busy street. This is the sunset in Manhattan.

Andy looked at the scenery on the roadside through the car window with a comfortable face. Because tomorrow is a weekend, there is obviously a little more leisure on the street. There is no peak traffic, and there is no anxious figure of bustling office workers. Even locals are willing to sit down and spend more than ten minutes to enjoy such a comfortable time and enjoy the rare Manhattan sunshine.

"Let's stop!"

After Andy said to the driver, the shiny black Maybach stopped on the side of the road. Four bodyguards quickly walked off the two SUVs in front and behind. Standing around to watch, Andy got out of the car, nodded and smiled at Kenny who opened the door and said, "Do you have cash?"

"Yeah." Kenny's cold face curled slightly, and he took out a hundred dollars from his pocket and handed it to Andy.

"Thank you." Andy smiled and raised the one hundred dollars in his hand, and walked to the ice cream vendor stall that could be seen everywhere on the street.

"I want a taro, strawberries, mangoes, chocolates, and this one... Thank you, I'll give you money."

The ice cream vendors were attracted by the previous show. When Andy got out of the car, many people recognized him. There were even a group of passers-by in front of the vendor stall where Andy bought ice cream. Some fans were even more excited and whispered together. There were also bold girls coming forward to ask for a photo.

Andy showed a charming smile friendly and satisfied the requests of several girls. In the hawker's excited expression, Andy took the ice cream and ate it, stretched out his thumb and exclaimed: "It's great, the familiar New York flavor, thank you."

"Hehe, thank you, thank you Mr. Smith for your visit, this is..."

"Don't look for it, goodbye." Andy looked at the other party looking for money and couldn't help but smile. He picked up the installed ice cream and walked back to the car. He ignored the crowds and the raised mobile phones around him. He sat in the car, opened the car refrigerator, and placed the ice cream in it.

Buzz

Andy, who was tasting ice cream, took out his cell phone from his pocket, looked at it and picked it up.

"Well...you said."

"Boss, I'm on the way to Fannie Mai. I'll accompany Paulson to Freddie Mai later. The takeover plan is officially launched and the takeover will be completed this weekend."

"Well, that is to say, next Monday, the Asian and European stock markets will rebound. OK, I understand, you can do it."

Andy hung up the phone, took a bite of ice cream, but his eyes narrowed slightly. In the end, Paulson chose to do this regardless of political costs. At this time, the president of Little Flying Shoes, who was in charge of the White House, was thinking about how to persevere in the past few months, otherwise the US economy would completely collapse in his hands.

The financial crisis has changed the fate of many people. Some people will become heroes, while others will be destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history. It is obvious that neither Xiao Feishao nor Paulson want to be the latter.

Since the outbreak of the financial crisis, Paulson and his team have been working day and night, often working 7 days a week. The greater the power, the busier the work. Paulson, the finance minister, can also be said to be the leader and rushed to the front line.

On Friday afternoon, September 5, a team led by Finance Minister Paulson went to the two companies to meet their management; on Saturday, September 6, Paulson met with their board of directors, and both houses board members accepted the takeover plan, which also indicates that common shareholders have almost lost everything.

On Sunday, Paulson officially announced that he had placed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac under the takeover process.

"Fanli Mae and Freddie Mae are so large and so closely related to the financial system that any of them will lead to great turmoil in the US and global financial markets. We have considered all the existing options and decided to implement this series of comprehensive and complementary measures..."

Andy hugged Ivana, who was wearing a suspender nightgown, opened her mouth and ate the watermelon that Ivana handed to him. Watching Paulson, who was facing the flashing flash on TV, announced the result of the two rooms to the whole United States and the whole world.

"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief..." Ivana looked at the press conference and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said softly.

"Relieve? Haha..." Andy took out the claws of Lushan in his nightgown, picked up his cell phone from the table on one side with his arm on his back, and called out with a curious expression of Ivana's frowning.

"Have Lehman's third-quarter performance come out? Well, okay, I understand. I will short Aig and Merrill Lynch..."

After hanging up the phone, Andy raised his eyebrows at the curious Ivana and said, "There is more than two families. Lehman is on the verge of bankruptcy, and American International Group and Merrill Lynch have also lost their lips and teeth.

If Lehman follows Bear Stearns' path and is acquired, then Merrill Lynch will be the next weakest investment bank. A new round of runs against Merrill Lynch is inevitable, and Aig's stock price has fallen by 50% within a week."

Ivana turned around suddenly, with a bright and exciting light flashing in her eyes. She reached out and stroked Andy's cheek and asked in a trembling voice: "Dear, how much have you made during this period?"

"Haha, not much, 6.7 billion!"

"Oh God, omg...bo~bo~good, god, dear, you are simply the hand of God!"

With an excited scream, Ivana's pretty face turned red. She held Andy's face excitedly and kissed her endlessly, and said excitedly incoherently.

"Haha, where is it going? It will be more lively next. I will squeeze the last drop of Lehman's oil dry. The previous hedging used ten times leverage and made a profit of $5 billion. After deducting the losses returned to securities companies, I received a total of $3.4 billion. You said, if so many prey were placed in front of me, will I let them go?"

"Of course not! The market value of Lehman Brothers has evaporated by hundreds of billions of dollars, and it is certainly not enough to only get such a little!" Ivana's pretty face turned red, her almond eyes widened, she looked at Andy condescendingly, and said fiercely.

"Ahem, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, there are still opportunities, take your time, to be honest, there are too many opportunities to choose this time, I need to be cautious, after all, high leverage also represents high risks... Alas, hey, don't be so excited, tsk tsk..."

Andy looked at Ivana who was excited because of the skyrocketing wealth. Before he could finish his serious introduction, he began to let him see the picture. Ivana herself chose to sway in the feng shui sunlight...

Sure enough, wealth and power are the most powerful cy in the world for women!

Monday, September 8th.

The two houses were taken over by the US government and nationalized, providing US$100 billion in capital and credit support to both companies. The Asian and European markets soared across the board, and the Football Central Bank and the Celestial Bank both applauded.

Andy Smith, sitting in the office on the 58th floor of the luxurious and luxurious Newsweek building, welcomed a guest who surprised him early in the morning.

"Your Excellency the Secretary of Finance, shouldn't you be very busy? Why do you have time to come to me?"

"The "two-bedroom" crisis exhausted me. Solving the "two-bedroom" crisis was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. I was going to fly back to Washington to explain to Congress why we were forced to use new power, but I had to come and see you, Andy, are you really not interested in Lehman?"

To be honest, Paulson is really going to be forced to death. As the firefighting captain on Wall Street, although he doesn't like Lehman, he has to help this bastard company find buyers and ensure the stability of the US financial system as much as possible.

"Haha, of course there is, I have a lot of interest in it. Haven't I short them all the time?"

Andy asked back with a chuckle, which completely turned Paulson's face into black, but he quickly took a deep breath, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "You guys are really too greedy..."

"Haha, Paulson, you were one of us greedy vampires, didn't you?" Andy narrowed his eyes slightly, his lips curled up, and he sneered faintly.
Chapter completed!
