Chapter 128 Sergey Sha's Ambition

"Iridium has successfully entered space, and the communication industry is about to enter the satellite era..."

"Iridium will monopolize the blue ocean of the trillion-dollar satellite communication industry..."

"NASA announced that all commercial launches this year have been fully booked by Iridium..."

"Lockheed Satellite Factory announced that it will open a new production line responsible for the production of Iridium..."

...

In the 24 hours after the launch of Iridium, new good news came from all industries related to Iridium. www.biquge.info After the market closed that afternoon, the stocks of Lockheed and AT&T soared. And in the next morning, when the Japanese stock market opened, all the concept stocks related to Iridium rose across the board.

When most of the investors were sharing this feast of wealth, AT&T announced an amazing news. Eva will succeed the resigned Stephenson as the trusted CEO of AT&T, the largest communication company in the United States, and Stephenson announced his retirement before the end of the month. After the news was announced, Eva immediately became a star in the American investment community.

A woman in her twenties, who is also the CEO of Yota Communications, Iridium Communications, and AT&T, three large multinational companies. At the same time, he is also an important member of Microsoft's board of directors. It is said that NTT is also inviting him to join NTT The board of directors, which has a shocking effect in the market, is really surprising. Bloomberg couldn't wait to present Eva with the telecom queen crown shortly after AT&T announced the news.

This great gift from Stephenson allows Eva to do whatever she wants without any worries. Although the three companies are all in the hands of one person, because the three companies are not integrated, they will not touch the US anti-monopoly law. Eva, on the other hand, can make AT&T, a century-old giant, conduct business the way it wants.

On the flight back to Cambridge from Houston, Eva was in a pretty good mood. The successful launch of Iridium and Stephenson's gift paved the way for Eva's career in the communications industry. At the same time, Eva began to plan a bigger layout.

Now there are two things that must be done on Eva's desk. One is to connect the east and west coasts of the United States with optical cables, and the other is the follow-up launch plan of Iridium. Because Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Lehman Brothers and other big conglomerates are all standing behind her, Eva doesn't have to worry about funding at all. So she began to think of the European market where she had suffered setbacks.

Eva took her satellite phone and dialed the number of Karim, who was well connected in Europe.

"Congratulations,

Eva, Queen of Telecommunications! When will we be able to use your newest product and replace this heavy ugly satellite phone! "Karim joked on the phone.

"Stop teasing me, Karim! Are you still in the Czech Republic?" Eva asked.

"No, we're in East Germany. Seryozha said he wanted to visit here!" Karim replied.

"Karim, I want to ask you, do you know any acquaintances in the telecommunications operators in Europe? I want to find some telecommunications companies that I live in as agents for Iridium products!" Eva asked directly.

"Eva, isn't it too early to think about the European market?" Karim asked in surprise.

"I just can't swallow this bad breath. Back then the Europeans joined forces to squeeze us out..." Eva said angrily.

"Well, Eva! To be honest, most of the telecom operators on this side of Europe have the shadow of the government. You know that in most European countries for the past few decades, the Labor Party has been in power for a long time, and these telecom companies are not at all Possibly privatized, so if you’re going to work with them, you’re actually working with the governments of these countries!” Karim explained to Eva over the phone.

Eva frowned when she heard that the situation was so complicated, and randomly changed the topic to something women care about.

...

At the moment when Eva was reaping the rewards, Mikhail, who had lived in Japan for a long time, was making the final preparations for the huge wealth of the Gorky Brotherhood to evacuate from Japan. Since the signing of the Plaza Accord, hot money from all over the world has been frantically pouring into this country. This has fueled the already booming Japanese economy even more. During this period of more than a year, Mikhail used various financial instruments to fully double the capital of the Soviet Foreign Trade Bank embezzled by Seryozha.

But now Seryozha no longer intends to play in Japan anymore. Although the Japanese economy has no intention of cooling down, Seryozha's capital is too large, and it cannot be cleaned up in a short period of time. After all, even the market for certain financial derivatives does not have a scale of three trillion US dollars. This amount of money is almost all of the total market value of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

At this time, taking advantage of the booming stage of the Japanese market, it is a good choice to settle down, because the subsequent benefits are accompanied by higher risks. Therefore, Mikhail soon started his own sale mode in Japan.

For a few weeks in January, Mikhail began selling the yen aggressively in global foreign exchange markets. Affected by this, the exchange rate of the yen against the U.S. dollar once dipped below the key psychological threshold of 160:1. However, the madness of the market soon allowed the yen to stand on the key mark of 150:1 again.

Regarding the abnormal behavior of the Bank of Colombia, the Japanese financial media have rumored that the Bank of Columbia has encountered financial problems. Mikhail made no comment on this. He doesn't care what the media thinks of him and Columbia Bank. Columbia Bank is not a listed company and will not be affected by bad news. At the same time, he was happy to make the public really think that it was Colombia that was in trouble, rather than Japan's financial markets.

Mikhail had accepted new orders from Seryozha to leave the Japanese market for America. Seryozha has recently encountered top financial talents one after another. Whether it is Bill Gross or Peterson and Schwarzman of the Blackstone Group, they are fully capable of managing this money in the future. Seryozha hopes that the Gorky Brotherhood can control the global money laundering market and maximize security measures. Therefore, the telecommunications empire in Eva's hands is extremely important now. As long as the area that Iridium can cover, in principle, you can entrust Columbia Bank to handle funds by phone.

Although this goal has not been achieved, it can already be seen and touched. Seryozha has already figured out the future. He wants to build a financial empire that has no territory and no population, but can share profits with gangs and governments all over the world.
