Chapter 976 - 333, Stir the water until it’s murky
"What’s the situation?"
When the people on Wall Street learned that the New Jersey Consortium had just launched Trident Shipyard’s IPO and was now promoting United Artists for listing, they all couldn’t help but ask this existential question.
Of course, there were also those who provided their own answers.
"If we set aside the New Jersey Consortium’s background, listing United Artists at this time is definitely the right choice. New films are selling big, the film market is beginning to surge—these are all favorable signals for United Artists’ IPO!"
"But does United Artists lack money?"
Others raised this query.
Any company that chooses to go public is aiming to raise more funds to facilitate corporate expansion.
"I think it’s more complicated than that!" A securities broker analyzed: "United Artists has four shareholders: Venus Bank, Charlie Chaplin, Douglas, and Griffith. Plus, Venus Bank basically doesn’t participate in United Artists’ development, which means Donnie’s attitude towards United Artists is purely as an investment."
At the same time, it also allows his Miss America to have a stepping stone into Hollywood!
So I suspect this matter wasn’t led by Donnie, but rather by the trio of Charlie Chaplin, Douglas, and Griffith!"
