Chapter 707 (2/2)
The underground of the Los Angeles blockhouse division is officially named stark weapons research laboratory. These forward-looking layout makes him a favorite of the times.
What's more, the silver that shocked Wall Street, even the old-fashioned consortium family didn't receive any news, and how did he predict the dynamics of Roosevelt.
Li Zitao made more than $1 billion in the two month deal.
No organization, not even the country, can regard it as a small sum of money.
One billion dollars is enough to buy half of Africa in terms of value alone.
As for how he did it, Lawrence did not believe that Roosevelt would be so kind as to remind him that he was not so stupid as president.
Based on these information, Lawrence comes to a conclusion that any industry that Li Zitao pays attention to will surprise people.
Lawrence called it Charlie's law.
For example, Wells Fargo suddenly invested in a Los Angeles news group company, and arc news got his special attention.
However, at the present level of Lanc, the possibility that Lawrence can intervene is very low.
So he focused on basic manufacturing and invested in several small companies that could produce TV accessories and master advanced or breakthrough technologies.
The investment of TV industry is not enough, but because it is in the imperfection of development, there will be ”innovative technology” every day.A small progress, the slight stability of frequency, the speed of transmission, the slight improvement of image quality or the change of appearance are all ”innovative” breakthroughs.
After Lawrence's attention and support, and sending representatives to ensure that most of the funds will be used for research and development, the development of several companies shows a rocket like rise.
They have attracted arc's attention, but the two sides are still in initial contact. Whether they can attract arc's interest and acquisition depends on whether their technology is really useful or not.
Now, Li Zitao is turning to IBM again. What must be attracting it, or is he seeing the potential of this company that is different from ordinary people?
After the call, Lawrence sat in his Broadway office for a long time, and didn't call for his secretary until he was about to leave work.
”Help me contact Mr. Thomas J. Watson of IBM and say... I want to talk to him about the next step of cooperation.” Lawrence grinned treacherously.
He couldn't wait to share the cake with lucky Charlie, but he didn't know how big it was to fill his stomach.
”Well? I'd like to think of a reason to impress Mr. Watson. IBM doesn't take much money now... ” Lawrence frowned with a headache after the secretary left.
IBM's laboratory performance is amazing, and its card counting machines have accounted for 90% of the market share in North America.
Faster, better, and more reliable products than others gave them contracts for Roosevelt's new deal accounting programs in 34.
IBM has also been allocated a small portion of the cake of stimulating the market in Washington. It is difficult for IBM to achieve a controlling stake if it only uses money.
Unless Lawrence is willing to bid up the company's valuation, he may be able to impress his board members by buying IBM's shares at a price that seems ”silly” to outsiders.
Lawrence hesitated to do so. He did not have Li Zitao's ”memory” of knowing the future. Naturally, he would not know what the future giant blue would be.
No matter what kind of investment, in the end, it will be based on income. If the price it raises far exceeds the value of IBM.
He has really become a ”silly fork.” in the future, this label will always be on his forehead, making him a laughing stock in the investment industry.
