Chapter 672 The gluttonous feast

After the matter was finalized, Yang Jing no longer paid attention to the matter here.

The initiator of this incident, the core figures of the Boston Consortium, were also a little worried at this time.

Although Mike Aller has not managed ky investment funds very much in recent years, his efforts behind the scenes are very big. Not to mention anything else, in just a few years, Mike Aller has weaved a large network in the United States. Although this network of personal connections is not so detailed, at critical moments, this newly formed large network can still play a big role.

Under the intentional guidance of Mike Aller, FBI, who had no clue, directly focused on the Boston Consortium. FBI was not an iron barrel inside, and the battles between the respective hills were also very powerful.

There must be a Boston consortium relationship within FBI, but there are also opposition forces specifically targeting the Boston consortium. In fact, in countries like the United States with economic supremacy, not only federal departments like FBI, but even the House of Representatives and the Senate are crowded, and federal departments like Cia and NSA that hold heavy power are the same.

Especially the nature of this "murder case" against civil aviation aircraft is too bad. Even President Reagan was alarmed and ordered a thorough investigation of the matter. Therefore, FBI, who had obtained the Shangfang sword, dared to directly target the tycoons of the Boston Consortium.

And not only FBI, but also the CIA and the National Security Agency intervened. Although they had no evidence at the moment, it was enough for Lowell and Lawrence to investigate the past every day to have a headache.

"Haha, that guy Smith is such a life. The elevator of the plane was completely unfixed or even locked. This guy's bodyguard could even propose a way to let the plane fly backwards, and they actually did it. It was incredible..." Richard Mellon Skeve said with a laugh in a room on Mellon Manor in Long Island.

He sat by his side a core figure of the Mellon family, including two contemporary contemporary figures of the Mellon family, Lichard King Mellon and Paul Mellon, as well as Paul Mellon's son Timothy Mellon and several core figures of the fourth generation of the Mellon family.

Timothy Mellon smiled and nodded to his cousin Skeve and said, "Yes, this mysterious Mr. Smith is really lucky. If it were me, I'm afraid you should attend my funeral at this time."

Paul Mellon is getting stronger and stronger. Although he is not a few years younger than his cousin Richard King Mellon, his body is far stronger than his cousin. "There are so many bad guys in the Boston Consortium that have suffered. This guy Cole is not a good person. The actions he made at our charity auction last time have proved that he is a very strong person. This time he was almost killed by Lowell and the others, and he will definitely take revenge."

After a pause, the old man in his 80s dusted the ashes of the cigar in his hand and said in a gloating tone: "I guess the stocks of the companies under the Boston Consortium's name should plummet in the past two days. Timothy, have you bought the stocks of the companies under the Boston Consortium?"

Timothy nodded with a smile, "Father, I had already arranged funds to enter the market yesterday. How could we miss such a good opportunity? And as far as I know, not only our funds, but also the funds of Rockefeller, Morgan, DuPont, Citigroup, and the three consortiums in the West and Central have also entered the market. There will definitely be a good show in the past two days, but there seems to be no movement in Cleveland."

Hearing this, Paul couldn't help but frown. It is understandable that the funds of Rockefeller and Morgan, such as old consortiums, can be understood. Even the Texas consortium, California consortium and Chicago consortium in the central region can be understood. After all, the competition among the top ten consortiums is still fierce now, and the Boston consortium is declining. It has been a rare opportunity to have such a good opportunity. It would be strange if these guys don't step on a few steps, but why doesn't the Cleveland consortium take action?

"Timothy, have you contacted Hamilton Mather? What is the reason why they don't enter this time? Could it be that they want to turn to Lowell and the others now?"

"Father, I have contacted Mr. Mather. The reason he gave was that he didn't get enough money recently, so he didn't enter the market."

Timothy's words not only made Paul Mellon's brows frown even tighter, but even Richard King Mellon, who had not spoken in a wheelchair, said: "Paul, you should pay attention to Cleveland recently. As the Humphreys and Eatons have changed leaders, their recent movements seem a bit wrong. Our relationship with the Cleveland consortium has always been very close. We cannot destroy the relationship that has been maintained for decades because of their personnel changes."

"Richard, don't worry about this. I will pay close attention to the situation there. The Cleveland Consortium has always been a solid ally of our Mellon family, and I don't allow them to just turn to Boston."

Among the top ten consortiums in the United States, the Mellon family and the Cleveland consortium are both old-fashioned eight consortiums, with a much longer history than the California consortium and the Texas consortium that emerged only after World War II. As an old-fashioned consortium, the nature of the Cleveland consortium is similar to that of the Boston consortium, and they are all formed by a group of several families.

However, due to geographical relations, the Mellon Consortium and the Cleveland Consortium have always had a close relationship, and many core companies under the names of the two consortiums have mutual control over each other.

For example, Amko Steel Company, Guomin Steel Company, and Goodyear Tire Rubber Company are all core enterprises that cross-control the two consortiums. It is precisely because the core enterprises between the two consortiums have achieved cross-control with each other that the relationship between the two consortiums has always been very good.

At this critical moment, the Cleveland Consortium suddenly made an unusual approach, which did not allow Richard to be worried.

Paul Mellon said: "Richard, I think Cleveland can still tell which is more important. After all, Smith also controls a large number of stocks in several core companies under their name. If Cleveland stands on Boston, with Smith's personality, he probably won't let Cleveland go. Therefore, we should also be prepared for both, at least not involve Cleveland, as it will affect our Mellon family."

Richard nodded and said, "Paul, you have to come forward for this matter. Let's take time to visit Mr. Smith immediately and ask him to show mercy. Alas, those fools in Boston are not good at provoking that guy. You said that they are agents launched by Europe? This is a far-fetched reason."

Skeve nodded and said, "Yes, others don't know Smith's foundation, but we have some basic knowledge. Not to mention anything else, the capital Smith brought was transferred through Citigroup and Morgan's banks. The funds did not flow from Europe at all. This alone can prove that Smith is not an agent in Europe. It's just that these guys in Boston have been blinded by hatred."

After a pause, Skeve continued, "I just don't know what that guy Smith will do. I really hope he can create an unforgettable memory for those guys in Boston."

Timothy said: "In terms of Mr. Smith's skills, he will definitely not let those guys in Boston go, we'll just wait and see the show."

......

The same situation is also being staged in several other places in the United States. A group of terrifying tycoons gathered together, and had already prepared knife and fork and napkin, waiting for the arrival of a feast.

Yang Jing did not let the tycoons wait any longer. Five days after the crash, on the sixth day, the beginning of the new week, the stocks of several core companies under the Boston Consortium encountered a large amount of selling, and Ky Investment Fund submitted two statements to ECS early in the morning, declaring that it would reduce its holdings of the First National Bank of Boston and John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company owned by Ky Investment Fund.

Subsequently, the stock prices of the two most core companies in the Boston consortium fell immediately, and the large-scale selling caused panic among many shareholders who held the stocks of these companies. Then, in almost twenty minutes, the stocks of the two companies fell by 15.5%.

However, due to the stock market crash last year, the New York stock market once again launched a circuit breaker mechanism. So when the stocks of Boston First National Bank and John Hancock Mutual Personnel Insurance Company fell by more than 15.5%, the circuit breaker mechanism was automatically stimulated, and the two stocks were suspended for half an hour.

The stimulation of the circuit breaker mechanism has triggered a new round of panic. After the short half-hour suspension of trading and returning to normal, more selling appeared, and the stock prices of the two companies continued to fall faster than last year's stock market crash.

The Boston Consortium immediately issued a statement claiming that it would file a lawsuit against ESC against ky investment fund. As the company's major shareholder, ky investment fund announced that it would reduce its holdings for no reason, which is an illegal practice.

But what the Boston Consortium did not expect was that their statement stimulated the decline in stock prices. Just after ECS announced that it would start to interview the head of KY Investment Fund, the shares of Boston First National Bank and John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company not only did not stabilize, but accelerated their decline. By the end of the afternoon of the day, the stock prices of these two stocks plummeted by 28%!

In other words, within one day, the market value of the two banks and insurance companies, whose market value was originally worth more than US$90 billion, evaporated by nearly one-third.
