The Son of Finance of the Great Age Chapter 24

  Chapter 24 How to gain a foothold on Hong Kong Island

  Davis finally chose to fight against the bulls, and he did succeed, successfully repelling the bulls' attack at the end of the game.

   Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Davis couldn't help complaining: "Damn, I don't know what those RB people are thinking? God!"

  For a whole afternoon, he didn't see the RB people with huge short positions make any move. Davis couldn't help being dissatisfied with this "comrade in arms".

  As the saying goes, "Don't be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs."

  Davis invested hundreds of millions of dollars to fight back the bulls. This money is the upper limit of his available funds. Those deep-pocketed RB people, with little movement in an afternoon, only invested millions of dollars in funds.

  For the purpose of hedging, RB's consortium has invested a huge amount of money in the US capital market to ensure the current exchange rate of the yen and prevent the loss of their exports from appreciation. It is precisely because of the participation of these RB people that Space Capital dared to establish such a large-scale short position.

   "Miller, go find out what the RB people did in the afternoon?" Davis came back to his senses, a haze rose in his heart. At this time, he thought of the rumor in the afternoon again, could it be true?

   Miller, who was cleaning the battlefield, heard Davis' order, quickly put down his work, and called a familiar RB agent.

  The RB person on the phone spoke difficult English and chatted with Miller for a long time. He talked nonsense about the good weather in Chicago and New York recently, but he didn't answer Miller's question directly. It wasn't until the end that the RB said vaguely: "The situation is different!"

  Miller hated this kind of oriental conversation, and he couldn't understand what it meant.

"What did you say?" After hearing what Miller narrated, Davis frowned deeply. After a while, he seemed to think of something, and shouted at Miller, "Look at today's bulls, check today's Who took our empty order!"

  He thought of some kind of possibility, and became extremely groggy. If the speculation in his heart is really confirmed, then the space capital will suffer a heavy loss this time!

   Sure enough, the news brought back by Miller confirmed his conjecture that the people who built the most long positions in the afternoon turned out to be RB people. It seems that the rumor is true, RB people abandoned him.

   "Oh, my God! Damn RB people, **** RB government, damn..." Davis hugged his head and wailed in pain. This is a terrible loss!

He looked at the bewildered Miller in front of him, and couldn't help venting his anger to the freshman: "How does the **** do things? Don't you know that this kind of situation needs to be reported? It's all your **** fault." ,you are fired!"

Miller, who suffered from the misfortune, was also furious, swept everything on the table, pointed at Davis's nose and shouted: "I can't stand you anymore, you son of a bitch! Wait to go bankrupt." , bastard!" After finishing speaking, he left without looking back, leaving only Davis with a dumbfounded expression on his face.

  Miller, who walked out of the building, called the SEC, pinched his throat and said, "Is it the SEC (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission)? I want to report..."

   Davis, who is still cleaning up the mess, is still thinking about how to operate tomorrow to minimize losses. Unaware that he got angry just now, which put Space Capital and himself in jail.

   "Zhong Shi, are you really letting go?"

  Liao Chengde, who left the futures company, couldn't wait to ask. He still has some common sense. He knows that holding positions overnight is very risky. If you are not absolutely sure, it is best to close the orders you hold on the same day. After all, the money you get is the real money.

   "You, you are too cautious!"

   Zhong Shi yawned and got into the Mercedes-Benz parked downstairs. In the 1980s, Mercedes-Benz was a symbol of luxury. Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Liao Chengde who was following behind sighed and got into the Mercedes-Benz.

   "I'm hungry, let's eat Saigon seafood!"

   "What? What time is it?" Liao Chengde was taken aback, unable to believe what he heard.

   Liao Chengde benefited from his gains in the stock market and bought a villa in Mid-Levels where rich people gather. Sai Kung is in the New Territories, and it is quite far away after passing through Victoria Harbour, Kowloon, Clear Water Bay and other places.

   "Hey, just kidding!"

  Zhong Shi made a haha, and couldn't help feeling a little vigilant in his heart. He brought some habits from later generations to the present, and said them unconsciously. In later generations, after finishing work late at night, he would take a speedboat to Clear Water Bay and Sai Kung for supper. The seafood there was very suitable for his taste.

   "Why don't we go to Sham Shui Po for supper!"

  Liao Chengde saw that Zhong Shi was in good spirits, so he couldn't help but suggest. Sham Shui Po is a relatively underdeveloped area in Hong Kong, which is equivalent to a slum in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong British government established the earliest public housing here. Most of the people living in it are middle and lower classes. , so there are many young and Dangerous.

  However, the food in Sham Shui Po is also very famous. There are many famous tea houses, and the local snacks such as barbecued pork buns, fish balls, and siu mai are even more outstanding. Ordinary Hong Kong people like to call three or five friends at the food stalls on the street in the middle of the night, and order some baked fish sausages with eggs, stir-fried beef with vegetables, claypot vegetables, and then a few bottles of cold beer. A very pleasant day.

  Although Liao Chengde is worth half a billion now, he still likes to go to Sham Shui Po for dinner. When he smuggled over from the mainland, the first place he settled was in the public housing in Sham Shui Po. He went out to do coolies every day, and drinking some beer and eating food stalls at night was the best enjoyment.

  People's favorite thing is "returning home". Liao Chengde has nothing to show off in the mainland. He can only go to Sham Shui Po to show off to his old friends and go to the shops he frequents.

   "Alright, aren't you afraid that there will be associations doing things there?"

  Zhong Shi thought for a while, nodded and agreed, but the next sentence put Liao Chengde's heart in his throat.

   Liao Chengde has heard of associations (triads). Even in the past, he often saw dozens of people fighting in the middle of the night. It was only when he moved to Hong Kong Island in the past few years that this situation disappeared. Today's him is not like he was poor and white back then, he only had one life, and he was not afraid of anything at all. If he was targeted by the club, he might not be able to eat or sleep.

  The associations in Hong Kong were born in 1949. At that time, the mainland and Taiwan faced each other, and Hong Kong became a place for private contact and competition between the two sides. At the same time, the two sides sent a large number of secret agents to operate in Hong Kong, and people from all walks of life who came from the mainland also mixed in, and naturally formed associations.

   In the 1980s and 1990s, the power of associations in Hong Kong reached its peak. At this time, when the future of Hong Kong was uncertain and people were panicking, the power of associations developed vigorously with the support of both sides. It was not until after 1997 that the evil forces in Hong Kong were truly defeated. At that time, Zhang Ziqiang, Ye Jihuan and other well-known gangsters in Hong Kong were arrested one after another. Zhang Ziqiang was even sentenced to death, which greatly shocked the underworld in Hong Kong and made them realize that the mainland government was different from the Hong Kong British government and had a completely different attitude towards the underworld.

   "This... this... let's find a place to have supper!"

   Liao Chengde who came back to his senses was a little scared, looked at Zhong Shi with an uncertain expression, and said intermittently.

   "Haha, what are you afraid of? Even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire, I have to see and see! At most it is about money, don't worry, they don't look down on you!"

  Zhong Shi didn't change his face, just smiled and asked the driver to drive across the sea.

  The driver in front saw Liao Chengde nod helplessly from the rearview mirror, and then he stepped on the accelerator, and the Mercedes-Benz accelerated suddenly, heading straight for the cross-sea tunnel.

Restless Liao Chengde lit a cigarette, but unconsciously aimed his eyes at the seven young men with blue dragon tattoos at the other table. With Zhong Shi's previous reminder, he now felt that everyone was a member of the society, and whoever They all want to be bad for him, even the seafood in his mouth is not so delicious!

   "What's the matter? Lao Liao? Eat, look, how fresh this lobster is!"

  Zhong Shi looked at Liao Chengde who looked uneasy, deliberately picked up a lobster the size of an arm, and brought it to Liao Chengde.

  Liao Chengde, who took the lobster with a bitter face, chewed absently. Even the dragon meat in the sky would taste nothing in his mouth at this time.

   "I guarantee you won't be able to eat anything in two days!"

  Zhong Shi suppressed the smile in his heart, and inadvertently nodded to him.

   "Zhong Shi, why did you come here?"

  Liao Chengde is not an idiot either. After thinking about it for a while, he will understand. Ever since he met Zhong Shi and knew how extraordinary this child was, he knew that every step he took was extremely meaningful.

   "Why am I here? Didn't you send me here?"

   After taking a sip of Coke, Zhong Shi couldn't help staring at the cigarettes on the table. Liao Chengde understood, quickly lit one and handed it to Zhong Shi, Zhong Shi took it unceremoniously, took a good sip, and then waved to Liao Chengde, motioning him to move his head over. "I plan to open a private equity fund in the next few years, and the target clients are black and white bosses. What do you think?"

   "What? Are you going to buy the Governor of Hong Kong?"

  Liao Chengde was shocked and couldn't help crying out.

  His abrupt sound immediately attracted the people who were also dining at the surrounding tables. Everyone looked this way one after another, and some people still showed dissatisfaction on their faces. Fortunately, Liao Chengde said this in Mandarin, otherwise if someone broke the news to the newspaper, it would definitely cause an uproar.

   "I said, why are you so startled, you don't look like an adult!"

  Zhong Shi put down the water glass heavily, and gave Liao Chengde a hard look, apparently very dissatisfied with his fuss.
