Back To 1995

   Chapter 385 Unpretentious

   The overwhelming accusations made Silverman speechless. How could he say that it was true that Blizzard sold it from him, but Blizzard and Xue Leshan at that time were just a little famous.

   And when they went out, the board of directors of CUC International and Wall Street were hyping the deal. When they were counting the money, the directors of CUC International were not the same as they are today!

   As for the Xue Leshan online platform, it made Silverman even more embarrassed. He is the president of a company engaged in real estate and tourism. Where can there be those who play in the Internet industry? How can they think that they can still play like this?

   Don't talk about him, don't look at the entire Silicon Valley and the technology companies in America, they all stare at the high-rise buildings in Xue Leshan Online, how many Song Yangs are there in the Internet industry?

All of these together made Silverman feel very aggrieved. This feeling of being scolded by someone's nose and not being able to speak back is really uncomfortable. He has been in America for so many years, when has he ever suffered such a Birdy.

Even, Silverman also heard that the scumbags of America Business School are preparing the acquisition of ICQ and CUC International as a classic case, so he must be the unsightly villain. , which is ready to be utterly disgusting to death for his Silverman.

   However, it is not only the outside world that makes Silverman suffer, but the media's accusations and abuses against him, Silverman can bear it, but the problem from Wall Street makes Silverman a little restless.

   "The Wall Street side hasn't shut up yet?!"

  Silverman only watched the news a few times, all of which were ridiculed and questioned about his sale of Blizzard and Snow Leshan. Silverman was not interested in watching any more.

The CUC executive who was asked by Silverman shook his head with a dignified expression, "Many Wall Street media and hedge fund companies are accusing CUC of having financial problems before the merger with HFS. We don't know if this is a deliberate attack on us from the Wall Street side, or..."

Now CUC International is a merger, formed by the merger of CUC International and HFS Group, or the latter dominates the current CUC International. Silverman is also the former president of HFS. HFS executives took over the now-merged CUC International.

   Who would have imagined that so many things could be involved in the hot sale of a game, and CUC International began to suffer from bad luck.

"The double-click thing has not made the Wall Street hedge funds have a long memory!" Silverman slapped the table, his face became ugly, accusing him of lack of vision, and accusing CUC International of financial fraud, but they are completely different things, scolding him Without vision, Silverman also recognized it, saying that CUC International was a fraud, which was really going to kill CUC International. Silverman thought that it was the short sellers on Wall Street who were doing things again.

   "If only Wall Street is attacking CUC International, what if there is really a problem with CUC before the merger?!"

A senior executive from HFS Company, who has been with Silverman all the way to the present, said to Silverman, "Before the merger, CUC did not disclose the profits of previous years, and there are indeed some inaccuracies in the accounts, especially CUC International In the two years before the company merged with us, there was a gap between the reported profits and what we saw after the merger!"

   Hearing this, Silverman's eyelids jumped, he had an ominous feeling, and what he felt strange before seemed to suddenly figure out now.

  After the merger of CUC and FSH, a group of executives, including former CUC International President Walter Forbes, Chief Financial Officer Anne Paquin, and other executives, immediately took the high compensation and slapped their **** and left.

At that time, Silverman was also fortunate that the senior executives of the CUC family were very interested and left the stage early, avoiding the power struggle between the CUC and HFS executives, and also deliberately increased the compensation for the former CUC executives who resigned. , just to get them out of here.

   But thinking about it now, Silverman thought of another possibility. If those **** executives of the original CUC company knew that there was a financial problem, or even that they made a fake, and they left in a hurry, were they running away? !

Not only Silverman thought of this, but other executives of the former HFS company also thought of this, and their faces became ugly. If this is true, then they are being taken for granted. ? !

   "Call Walter and have him..."

As soon as Silverman said it, he heard the following people say, "Walter Forbes has gone to Panama for a vacation and has left since the merger. Many executives of CUC International have gone on vacation overseas, or even immigrated to the country. overseas!"

   Hearing this, Silverman's face turned a pig's liver color. He felt that the executives of the former CUC International Company stepped on the ground and rubbed their brains.

"Bring Walter back to me, no matter what method, I want him to appear in America and go to Bruno Song's Blackwater Company, doesn't the Blackwater Company have bounty hunters, no matter how much money they spend, let them Walter, get America!"

   "Go to Ernst & Young, no," Silverman said immediately, "Let Deloitte audit all the accounts of CUC International, including all the accounts before the merger of CUC!"

Now Silverman doesn't believe the people from the former CUC company, including the Ernst & Young accountant who has been cooperating with CUC company. If there is real financial fraud, then the Ernst & Young accountant who is responsible for auditing the former CUC international company will definitely not be able to escape. Anyway, Silverman couldn't trust them all, so he had to check the accounts himself.

Silverman said angrily to his subordinates, if there is a real problem with finances, then he will not be much better, but also Walter and Anne Paquin will not be much better, he Silverman may lose money, but Walter's gang can't go to the federal prison for a few years, and if they don't take out all their net worth, then this account will not be finished!

During this time, Song Yang's villa in San Jose was extremely noisy. The election for the leadership of America had reached its final stage. All the media in America started to go crazy. The TV stations of the Donkey Party and the Elephant Party were even more Foam flew across the mouth, and the scolding sounded loudly.

Song Yang, Erin, Greck, Gallo, Wesley, Evan Spiegel, ICNC TV president Andy Lake, editor-in-chief Williams and many others were in the villa. Whitman, Iger even flew in from Houston and New York.

Today is the day when the next four years of Amelia’s leadership will be released. Song Yang’s side is naturally very concerned. Now, these companies in Song Yang’s hands are also inseparable from dealing with the federal side. Any change in the bill will produce different effects.

"The Wall Street Journal, today published a report, that CUC International, before the merger in 1995, had begun financial fraud, and the amount may be staggering. In an interview with the media, CUC International President Silverman did not say anything, but Claiming that if there is real financial fraud, it will not tolerate and cover up anyone!

After the merger of CUC International and HFS, the stock price hit a new high, with a market value of more than $35 billion. It also reached an agreement with the Silicon Valley technology company ICQ to sell the game business unit at a price of $400 million. Blizzard included..."

On the    TV station, the news that originally reported the votes of the states in America suddenly inserted such a piece of news. Andy Lake, who is very sensitive to media news, immediately sniffed and said, "CUC International has a problem!"

Watching the news on TV and the scene of Silverman's face blackened in front of the camera, Song Yang didn't know what to say for a while. He didn't know if Silverman was too unlucky, or if the characters clashed. The hot sale of "Diablo" has already made Silverman scolded, and now he is carrying news of financial fraud.

Gallo put down the phone at this time and whistled, "Blackwater has a big job, it should be someone from Silverman's side, who wants Blackwater's bounty hunter, and put the former CUC President Walter and other high-ranking people. Come on, get America back from overseas!"

   Hearing this shocking news, Andy Lake couldn't help exclaiming. The real business battle was really simple and unpretentious. He came directly to the bounty hunter and caught people from overseas to America without any sloppy slack.

   "If ICNC opens, this will definitely attract viewership!"

  Andy Lake said regretfully, "ICNC TV has missed too many things, my God..."

Ignoring Andy Lake for fear of the small, Song Yang, Greck and the others glanced at each other, and they all felt that CUC International, I am afraid the matter would not be too small, could make Silverman not hesitate to use the bounty hunter, It is also necessary to bring those gang members back to America. Obviously, there is a problem with the finances of CUC International. I am afraid there is still a big hole.

Song Yang nodded to Gallo and asked Blackwater to take over the order. Anyway, it was Silverman who paid the money. Things are getting better.

   "Boss, the preparation speed of ICNC TV station is a little too slow!"

   After sitting down and looking at the results of the state ballots, Andy Lake said to Song Yang that he was helpless because ICNC TV missed the general election and could not report.

"This may not be a bad thing for ICNC TV station!" Song Yang turned his head and said to Andy Lake, a new TV station, dancing too much, it will definitely be targeted, and the black material can be exposed , but if there are too many explosions, it will inevitably attract hatred and be targeted. Before ICNC TV station developed, Song Yang actually didn't think too much about it. When ICNC TV station was established, it involved too many serious types. , social issues, etc.
