It has to be said that Cowell has fully demonstrated Wall Street's greed. At present, the stock market value of Jingjian Lanxing.com is nearly one billion US dollars, but Cowell only paid 500 million, and he has the face to say "high price".

What is especially vicious is the locked 5% equity. Don’t think that this is Cowell who is kind-hearted, as if he opens the Internet and allows Jing Jian to hold a part of the stock. You should know that more than 5% is the major shareholder, and it is illegal for you to hold the shares of your opponent’s company. For example, you are the major shareholder of Coca-Cola, and you hold the shares of Pepsi Cola. What do you want to do? Do you want to play infernal Affairs?

In other words, once this 5% equity is locked, Jing Jian will not be able to invest in similar companies within ten years, which means that Jing Jian will be driven out of the portal industry in disguise.

But Cowell disagreed with Jing Jian's attitude: "Bramble, the money he got is real. Five hundred million is actually not low." The meaning of the words is that Jing Jian's current stock is still in the lock-up period, and it is nothing more than a recent surge. I don't know what will happen in the future.

Jing Jian quickly stabilized his mood: "Sorry, Cowell, I think you should be disappointed."

"It's okay, haha." Cowell said lightly as if he was saying a small thing, "In fact, the results are almost the same. I believe that Wang is very interested in the voting rights of my 8% equity? As long as the shareholders' meeting is held, you will still step down. So I want to save some trouble and you can make more profits in the end."

Jing Jian suddenly discovered Cowell's words: "Cowell, if you buy equity, aren't you personally running Blue Star Network?"

"Of course not, I only invest." Cowell smiled, "In my eyes, if you support the king, you can get more benefits. Bramble, I actually admire you very much, just appreciate your rationality. In fact, there are many things that are easy to talk about and don't need to die."

Jing Jian quickly calculated. It was obvious that Kewell didn't care who he supported, but mainly depends on who gave him many benefits. However, what he meant was that the potential benefits of supporting Wang Lie were likely to exceed 500 million US dollars, unless he could bring out greater benefits.

Here, if anyone still doesn't understand the algorithm here, let's explain it. If Jing Jian agreed to sell it to Cowell shares at a low price of 500 million US dollars, Cowell could actually support Jing Jian to continue to operate Blue Star Network. It is better to be familiar than to be a raw person, and Jing Jian's reputation is always much higher than Wang Lie, right? However, Cowell did not do this, so there is only one truth--the benefits to Wang Lie will definitely exceed 500 million US dollars.

However, in the mall, intrigue is common. Maybe it was Cowell who deliberately cheated? Jing Jian would of course bluff: "Cowell, how can I raise hundreds of millions of funds around me? I can also mortgage the copyright of Seed Film and even sell some standard shares for financing. Not to mention too much, two or three hundred million US dollars in loans are still sure. As for the temporary shareholders' meeting, I can also set up obstacles in the procedure, drag it for two or three weeks, right? I spend all this money on the acquisition of circulating shares. Even if the shareholders' meeting is held, are you sure you are sure?"

Jing Jian’s meaning is very clear, which is to use that kind of secret game. Until the day of the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting, no one knows how many stocks the other party has. In order to ensure a simple majority, they can only grit their teeth and continue to buy. The US stock market has no limit on the rise and fall, so the stocks will definitely rise to the sky. By that time, the cost of Wang Lie and Cowell will definitely be hundreds of millions. Will they spend such a big price?

In addition, Jing Jian also vaguely hinted to Cowell that as long as he supports himself, it is not difficult to discuss the standard first-round financing.

"Hahaha!" A burst of laughter, Cowell must have understood the hint, but he still pretended to be confused, "Bramble, it won't take that long. Tell you, Congress will hold a hearing soon, I hope you will have good luck. Also, if you figure it out, you can call me before the hearing at any time."

Jing Jian was stunned. To be honest, his concessions were not bad. Moreover, before, Kewell tried every means to join the standard financing, so why isn't he even interested in this bait?

Moreover, Cowell's final meaning was very clear. This hearing was promoted by Cowell himself, not Wang Lie. If Jing Jian continues to resist, the hearing will be very sad; if Jing Jian surrenders, then raise it high and let it go gently.

This made Jing Jian wonder. Although the US Congress is controlled by capitalists, it is not a place that can be controlled casually. It is impossible to have a hearing on trivial matters. Is it necessary to upgrade such an indispensable proposal to a hearing? How much does it take to use Cowell? Or the old saying - is it worth it?

Another thing is quite strange. Regardless of the result of the hearing, it will be a heavy blow to Blue Star Network itself. In order to restore its reputation, it will definitely cost a lot of public relations expenses. This is the same for Jing Jian and Wang Lie. Then Cowell's approach is very confusing. Is he trying to harm others and not benefit himself?

...

With questions, Jing Jian discussed with his lawyer and investment consultant several times, but still couldn't figure out Cowell's intentions. However, Cowell did not lie, and Jing Jian then received a notice from Congress that a joint hearing would be held on August 1.

A day earlier, Jing Jian and his lawyer team came to Washington. On the afternoon of August 1, Jing Jian entered Capitol Hill with a suit and tie.

The U.S. Congressional hearing is a formal and main method of collecting and analyzing opinions and materials from all walks of life when initially developing legislative policies. It usually includes oral testimony of witnesses and congressmen's inquiries about witnesses. Since today's hearing is not complicated and mainly targets Jing Jian, he is the only person present.

It is said that it is a congressional hearing, but in fact, there are both Houses of Senate, so Jing Jian needs to attend two sessions. Today is the Senate hearing, and it will be the House of Representatives tomorrow. Today's hearing has a total of 56 senators. It has to be said that in this not-so-important proposal, there are so many senators. And two hours before the hearing, the people and reporters who applied to attend the auditor had already lined up, and the audience seats were full after the start. It can only be said that Jing Jian's celebrity effect is indeed very good.
