Chapter 123 The catastrophic event of nuclear power in the United States(1/2)
The next day, Lin Johnson came to Wall Street and found John Berg's location by address. John Berg belongs to a large investment company. He has not developed independently yet and is not yet a great investment master in the future.
John Berg told Lin about some economic situation in the United States and recommended some high-performance stocks to him. Like all investment consultants on Wall Street in the United States, they always talked about investment. The more Lin Johnson listened, the more he felt that he would make a lot of money. Here he was just like an ordinary investor, and was extremely easily moved by the words of investment consultants.
"The current oil industry and gold industry are all industries with promising prospects! I suggest that you invest your funds in the stocks of oil companies and ore companies in the United States, and they will have good returns!" John Berg said to Lin Johnson.
Lin Johnson calmed down, drank some coffee, looked at the analysis report John Berg was about to give him, nodded and said, "Actually, I am more interested in industry!"
John Berg immediately took out several industry surveys and analyzed: "I am also optimistic about the prospects of the electronics industry and some terminal manufacturers and industry monopolists! The current industry in the United States is sluggish, but companies with technological leadership have good economic conditions!"
Lin Johnson saw terminal service providers and electronic equipment manufacturers like ibm, Honeywell, as well as large companies like General Electronics and Westinghouse.
With a responsible attitude, some of the companies selected by John Berger for Lin Johnson have steadily increased their performance. The United States is currently facing the biggest economic crisis since World War II, with tens of thousands of bankrupt companies, and it is not easy to select some good stocks.
Companies like Apple that are popular are not listed yet, so it will take time to find promising companies.
A meeting could not determine the investment of 300 million US dollars, so Lin Johnson returned to the hotel with the information.
After arriving at the guest room, Lin Johnson found his waiter: "Call a few people over and help me organize the newspaper!"
The white guy immediately called a few waiters, including men and women. Lin Johnson arranged for them to cut down the economic information in the newspaper and pasted them in different categories on a wall with transparent gel.
Lin Qiangsheng stood in front of the information wall with his shoulders in his arms, staring at the information on it, while the waiter kept sticking to the wall.
"Apple is preparing to go public. They have been preparing for half a year and are not ready yet. Analysts point out that this is completely a hype for Jobs, and he doesn't want to go public at all!"
"It is reported that Intel will launch a 16-bit processor 8088 this summer based on the 8086 processor, which will be another huge progress in the chip industry! At present, ibm revealed that it is interested in contacting Intel, and the two companies may reach a strategic alliance soon!"
"The current Intel stock price is US$9.06. I expect there will be a lot of room for growth this year! After the 8088 chip is listed, Intel will definitely cooperate with ibm. The company's prospects are very impressive. This company that always pays attention to technology is definitely worth investing, sir!" The white young man Carrey said proudly to Lin Johnson.
Lin Johnson glanced at Carrie. As the saying goes, there is no way to walk by the river. He often memorized 300 poems and could recite poems! People who work near Wall Street also have a very good understanding of these financial tricks. There are also many people who have ideas like this.
Lin Johnson nodded, looked at the news and said seriously: "Yes! It's 8088!" At the same time, Lin Johnson thought, the next one is 286, and the era of personal computers is coming!
Next to it is information from some large industrial companies, "Westhouse Electric Nuclear Energy Department signed a new nuclear power plant construction contract with a state government, and the equipment will mainly use the products of Bavi Company."
Nuclear power construction has risen strongly during the stagflation period of the US economy. Commentators said, "This industry will drive the rapid development of related industries and drive the social output value of trillions of dollars! Many companies on the verge of bankruptcy will regain their vitality on the nuclear energy industry!"
When Lin Johnson saw this, his mouth twitched. At this time, the United States did regard the nuclear power industry as a life-saving straw. How many industrial enterprises that are surviving have to rely on nuclear power construction to maintain their lives!
If it develops, nuclear energy covers such a rich industrial cluster, technology-intensive and investment-intensive industries, and countless companies that provide supporting services, will drive more than ten trillion dollars of social output value, but an economic size as large as the United States will have at least ten trillion dollars!
At this time, the United States, which had a sluggish economy, even their critics were conservative and had to be careful when talking.
Lin Qiang-Cheng-Cheng took a pen and drew wavy lines on this message, indicating that he attached great importance to this message, as well as Intel's information, and drew a few others.
Lin Johnson spent two days in the guest room, mainly collecting information. Carrey kept delivering newspapers, while Lin Johnson cut paper notes and pasted them all over the wall.
This is really effective. This kind of information collection, classification and sorting is really intuitive! It made Carrey, a white boy, run into Lin Johnson's guest room if he has anything to do, and he contracted the work of cutting paper notes. It seems that the American Dream is really popular.
It was soon March 28th, and Lin Johnson was very tired these days. Although he was included in the performance, he was indeed interested in the US economy and gradually became fascinated. But he always had something to do in his heart. The closer he was to time, the more nervous he became, the more he couldn't sleep.
On the morning of the 28th, at 4 a.m., Lin Johnson looked at the time and opened the curtains and the world outside was still pitch black. Waiting in the darkness before dawn, although he felt tired, Lin Johnson became more energetic.
Lin Qiang-Cheng-Cheng didn't even dare to turn on the TV, so he sat in front of the window. He finally got to breakfast time, and then lay down for a while until nine o'clock.
The Sanli Island nuclear accident must have happened, right?!
"Lingling"
Lin Johnson was thinking, but suddenly the phone rang, which scared him. After waiting for a while, Lin Johnson answered the phone.
"Mr. Lin, good morning! Have you considered it clearly today? What kind of stock do you think Mr. John is interested in?" Miss Ryan's voice came from the phone.
Lin Johnson took a sip of water, licked his chapped lips, and said calmly: "I feel that the electronics Intel company is good! It is said that Intel's 8088 chip is about to be launched, and will cooperate with ibm. Their market prospects should be very good!"
Ryan smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Lin! Our Mr. John. All the stocks recommended for you are guaranteed to be profitable in the market! He is very responsible for his customers in this regard and is a conscientious investment expert on Wall Street. Please rest assured about this!"
"After I read the newspaper, I will go to you and we will finalize the contract!" Lin Qiangsheng said simply.
Ryan said happily: "Okay, sir! I will make an appointment for you to meet John until 10 o'clock, is that OK?"
"Yes!" After Lin Johnson finished speaking, he hung up the phone and let out a long sigh.
Today, Carrey delivered a newspaper to Johnson Lin as usual. In the Washington Post, Johnson Lin indeed saw a big title, "White House, Big Action?"!
The title is a reporter who reported this newspaper to observe the White House. When he saw that at ** o'clock, the White House suddenly became flustered and panicked. The reporter immediately felt that there was a big news about it. Without understanding, you might as well write the title first and guess it. Then draw a big question mark to look forward to the announcement next issue. This is a common technique used by many newspapers.
Lin Johnson read several newspapers in a row, and indeed there were reports on the White House. Many newspapers and media began to pay attention to the White House.
They don’t understand what happened to the United States, and the Carter administration suddenly became so panicked! Where did the war be fought? Or did the United States suffer a terrorist attack?
Lin Johnson turned on the TV again and turned on the voice. The local TV station in New York suddenly jumped to the current picture of the White House. The reporter held the microphone and reported to the camera: "The White House in the United States is taking urgent action. The news that the White House has mobilized the National Guard. It is reported that several special forces are also being mobilized! We really want to know. Why is this? Who can tell us? The White House must clarify the facts to the public."
The Carter administration has obviously encountered some sudden situation now, and they have not released any news yet. Since its establishment, the United States has not suffered any blows in previous wars, or during periods of intense nuclear threats. The sudden actions of the White House have made many media confused for a while, and no one has come out to explain all this to them!
Lin Qiangsheng touched his head, turned around in place for a few times, and sat back on the chair. Obviously, no one realized that an accident would occur at the nuclear power plant on Sanli Island, so he should wait a little longer!
Only Stephanie was negligent, but she could say she knew about the film "Chinese Syndrome" and believed in everything on it, so she had a premonition.
Many people believe that there will be potential nuclear accidents in the United States. Two weeks before the accident, the York Daily Chronicle reporter Jim Hill and photographer Bill Burden published a series of articles warning the operators of the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant that there are loopholes in the safety measures of the nuclear power plant.
With random thoughts, gradually passed the time to make an appointment with John Berg. At around 10:15, the phone in Lin Johnson's room rang again.
"Hey?" Lin Johnson picked up the phone and said.
"Mr. Lin! Why are you still in the hotel?!" Ryan asked him strangely. She thought that Johnson Lin might be stuck on the road, but she didn't expect that he was still in the hotel room.
Lin Johnson flipped through the newspaper and said, "Did you read today's news? Did you see the actions of the White House? What's the situation? The United States is going to fight? I have to be more cautious!"
"Wait!" Ryan said, and after waiting for a while, John Berg said there: "Mr. Lin, we are not very clear about the current situation in the White House, but please believe in the security of the United States! If there is any situation, we will notify you in time. Please wait for our news!"
"Okay!" Lin Qiangsheng said happily.
John Berger hung up the phone and frowned. Investors' concerns were not unnecessary. The sudden moves of the White House will definitely affect the stock market.
What happened! Why?
What happened in the United States is also something that many Americans and many countries want to figure out at this time. As many news media began to track and report on this incident, many people had a premonition that something terrible would happen in the United States!
"Mr. John, please attend the meeting immediately! It is said that news came, from the White House!" At nearly eleven o'clock, a company employee broke in and shouted to John Berg.
John Berg stood up suddenly, ignored Ryan's surprised expression and rushed out of the office.
Many investment experts, investment consultants and managers have received news from the company's intelligence center that shocked and terrified them!
The special forces mobilized by the White House in the United States actually include several nuclear security forces. Their assembly location has been analyzed by experts and it turned out to be the Three Mile Island Nuclear Power Plant!
"What's the situation? Is there no clear information?" An investment manager shouted in surprise.
The intelligence expert shook his head and said, "At present, it is not easy to get this intelligence! There is no news from the front! However, after analysis by our intelligence personnel, 80% of the time, it is believed that a serious accident occurred at the Sanli Island nuclear power plant! Otherwise, all this will not be explained! The White House cannot use such an exercise to attack the US economy, right?!"
Everyone couldn't even show their wry smiles. The intelligence experts' self-deprecating words were of no effect. He smiled and said, "I think you should predict immediately what would happen if there was a nuclear accident in the United States. If you have investment in this area, make plans as soon as possible!"
Everyone returned to their office in shock and began to make wild calls, using their intelligence relationships to collect information.
The United States is a society with developed intelligence, with all kinds of gossip everywhere, and the American media industry is the biggest intelligence dealer.
Near noon, Lin Johnson called Johnberg and asked about his information, but Johnberg never told him the truth.
After 1 o'clock, Lin Johnson couldn't sit still in the hotel. He ran to the investment company and asked John Berg for information in person.
"John. I've heard of it! It's Pennsylvania, right? What's wrong with it? Why did the United States make such a big move!" Lin Johnson knew everything, but he just couldn't say it, and he had to cliché with John Berg around the bush. He was anxious!
John Berg frowned and said, "The news is confusing and unclear, and we are not very clear either!"
Lin Johnson smiled and said, "John! It's not difficult to know what's going on in the United States! As long as I'm willing to spend money!"
Seeing John Berg still didn't want to tell him the truth. Lin Johnson suddenly asked, "Is it the United States fighting?"
John Berg lowered his head and continued to work.
"Is there a terrorist attack in the United States? Are there any major casualties?" Lin Johnson shouted in surprise.
John Berg looked up and said, "Mr. Lin! Do you just hope something happens to the United States so much?"
Lin Johnson also shrugged and said, "Of course I don't want it! I still want to make a lot of money here! That's what, realize my American dream!" After that, Lin Johnson laughed.
John Berg shook his head and prepared to pick up the phone.
Lin Johnson suddenly said: "It was the US nuclear bomb that was lost?!"
John Berg looked at Lin Johnson in surprise, and Lin Johnson laughed and said, "Is it the nuclear bomb lost? So the White House is so panicked! I saw it on TV. President Carter was so anxious in the official residence!"
John Berg shook his head and said, "No!"
"Oh? Is that a nuclear leak? a nuclear explosion? a nuclear power plant accident?" Lin Johnson said casually.
John Berg followed his words and browsed.
Lin Johnson looked at John Berg carefully and said seriously: "The pupils of people cannot panic. Every time I say a word, your pupils will shrink! I observed that when I talk about a nuclear power plant accident, your pupils are only the size of a needle tip! Haha, was there an accident in the nuclear power plant in Pennsylvania? Is it a nuclear power plant in Sanli Island?"
John Berg quickly turned his head, but his panicked eyes were still exposed to Lin Johnson.
"The nuclear accident has been hit hard! It may seriously affect the US economy, and the US industry and commerce will be severely damaged!" Lin Johnson shook his head and said regretfully.
John Berg did not hide it anymore and turned his head and said, "Sir! It seems that I can't do any investment activities for you until the news comes exactly!"
Lin Johnson asked in surprise: "Why?"
"Because if it was really a nuclear accident, it would seriously hit the US stock market. What kind of losses would be lost are not something we investment advisers could have expected! That's all we can see!" John Berg drew an amen on his chest and said.
Lin Johnson shook his head and said loudly: "No! I believe that the US economy is huge. Even if a nuclear accident really happens, it is not enough to destroy the US economy! I want you to help me short the relevant companies of US nuclear energy manufacturing! Which company built the nuclear power plant on Sanli Island?"
Lin Johnson turned to Ryan who walked into the office and asked, "Miss Ryan, please help me check the information about the Sanli Island nuclear power plant!"
