P and C Bank National Association 32 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 2: Member FDIIC. 33 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: Let's start with TikTok So TikTok. I think they said 34 00:01:56,400 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: that they gave them to January nineteenth lawmakers, Democrats and Republicans. 35 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 3: Now they're saying that they want Google and Apple to 36 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,639 Speaker 3: get them off of the app stores by January nineteen. 37 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 3: But there has been several billionaires that have expressed interest 38 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 3: in buying TikTok, and especially something that's very close to 39 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 3: Donald Trump, and rumor has it that they're kind of 40 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 3: waiting in the wings for him to be inaugurated so 41 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 3: that they can kind of settle this TikTok thing. So 42 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 3: I have a long standing belief that I don't think 43 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 3: the TikTok will be banned. But what do you think 44 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 3: the outcome is going. 45 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,559 Speaker 1: To be for Senior Trump and everyone who's close to him. 46 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: It would be insane. I'm not saying this is going 47 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: to happen, but it would be insane if an American 48 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: billionaire bought it who was supposed to him. I don't 49 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: think it would be banned. I don't think the economy 50 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 1: can't afford it, despite where the stock market may be. 51 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm with that long standing belief with you. 52 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they'll end up selling it. I think 53 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: they'll come to an agreement sometime after he is inaugurated. 54 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 3: TikTok Okay, it's. 55 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: A hot asset, but it would be amazing hypothetically if 56 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: like you guys for an office and let's say the 57 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 1: country Demon I was an asset and I got to 58 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: buy it for fifty cents on a dollar, Thank you 59 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: bottle service every day to the house on the whike cup. 60 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 3: Thanks.

Soft Bag 63 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 2: CEO Masa Son. You talked about one hundred billion dollar. 64 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: Maybe we'll get into a little bit later today. If 65 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 2: you look at the investments he made in twenty sixteen, 66 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 2: one of the biggest vests he made was in this 67 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:52,839 Speaker 2: company called Fight Dance. You know what they own, TikTok. 68 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:55,960 Speaker 3: So you make it. 69 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: You've made an investment already with a in twenty sixteen, 70 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 2: it was a fifty million dollars investment into the US economy. 71 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: Today you announced one hundred billion, So you've updated one 72 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: hundred percent. 73 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, one of his. 74 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: Two hundred he did, like live just said, yeah, we're 75 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 2: gonna do this much. 76 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: A good lesson than that to ask for the upseil 77 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 1: when the deal is about to be done right public. 78 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know we agreed with the one hundred, but 79 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: like now that the camprazon, what was up with two hundred? Yeah, clever, 80 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 2: it's I used to think that it was going to 81 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: get banned and gonna get sold. Seeing that today, raising 82 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: some eyebrows on whether he'll try to hurt an investment 83 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 2: for somebody who's doing a deal with presently. So I'm 84 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 2: up in the year. 85 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 3: I'm up in the year. 86 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 2: I think it's something again that the Congress is bypartsing 87 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 2: on right, So they'll they'll try to push something through. 88 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 2: It'll probably last for a week or so, and then 89 00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 2: I think he'll lift it. If there's a band, he'll 90 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 2: figure out a way to lift it. It the sale, 91 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 2: Like I said that, there's a lot of moving factors 92 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: in it. 93 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: It'll be tough. 94 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 2: So I think he comes in and just says, all right, 95 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: after a week of this, what we got to executive 96 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: vod the type of situation. 97 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, some of the app store. So unless it gets 98 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: taken down, I don't think there's anything to worry about. 99 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,160 Speaker 1: But if it comes off of Apple's App Store, major 100 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: maybe some issues. 101 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then where does all that data go? Like 102 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: we talk about that being the gold of this this 103 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 2: generation and generation is going forward. That's a lot of data. Yeah, 104 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: where's it going? Where is it at now? 105 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: Yeah? For sure? Okay, okay, well only Tom will tell 106 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 3: We're mind into the situation for sure, but yeah, we'll 107 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 3: we'll we'll see, we'll see what happens. So what's your 108 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:52,840 Speaker 3: prediction about what no I really said. I don't think 109 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: it's going to get banned its usual. I don't think 110 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 3: it's gonna get band. Like you said, I mean, if anything, 111 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 3: they might try to do like a but as far 112 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 3: as a long standing man, I just don't see a 113 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 3: world where TikTok just vanishes. I don't. I don't see that. 114 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, because we can't afford the blowback if they decide 115 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: to take some of our apps out of their app stores. 116 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 1: Never heard tremendous.
