I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 534: Photo with Rogers (with photo)
"You said this guy is a big shot, so what big things has he done? How much money has he made?"

"How vulgar. You actually use how much rice you earn to measure a boss's ability." Wang Qiansui's words made Chen Xi roll his eyes.

"He is a famous professor, investor, economic analyst, traveler, and writer," Wang Qiansui added.

"Professor? Which school?"

“Yale University, Oxford University!”

"One moment he's talking about the United States, the next moment he's talking about the United Kingdom. Does he also like to short sell?"

"Here I come, here I come. Instead of asking questions here, you might as well see the real person." Before Chen Xi finished asking, Wang Qiansui pointed to the distance.

Surrounded by several bodyguards, several people in suits walked into the hall. People around them stood up and took up their phones to take pictures.

"Fuck, Jim Rogers!"

When Chen Xi saw the foreigner with gray hair, he couldn't help but say his name.

Jim Rogers, a prominent figure on modern Wall Street, is known as the most visionary international investor and one of the most successful practitioners in the U.S. securities industry.

He earned his first pot of gold at the age of 5 by collecting empty bottles from baseball games to earn pocket money, and then upgraded to selling Coke and peanuts and hired his younger brother to help. This experience made him realize the business opportunities and cultivated his early business acumen and hardworking spirit. When he was in high school, Rogers had at least three part-time jobs at the same time, showing a strong work ethic and self-reliance.

Later, he co-founded the Quantum Fund with Soros. In the following ten years, the fund achieved a brilliant performance with an average annual return of more than 50%, far exceeding Buffett's 29% and Peter Lynch's 30% in the same period.

At the age of 37, he withdrew from Quantum Fund and started his independent investment career with the accumulated wealth. He has made remarkable success in global investment with his keen insight and unique investment strategy.

Rogers is very good at macro analysis. When selecting stocks, he pays more attention to the impact of macro factors such as society, economy, politics and military on industry trends rather than the short-term profitability of the company.

He tends to bet on countries and makes investment decisions by deeply studying the economic, political and social conditions of each country. For example, he bought a lot of Austrian stocks when they plummeted, and eventually got rich returns.

Rogers is different from other investors. He likes to travel around the world to personally experience and understand the culture and economic environment of different countries in order to obtain first-hand market information.

"How about it? You didn't believe it before, but now you don't regret coming here, right?" Wang Qiansui smiled, his face full of pride.

"What is he doing in China? Is he planning to make a big move here?" Chen Xi calmed down.

"They must be here to make money and observe if there are any young people with extraordinary abilities."

"For example, you?" Chen Xi found it a little funny.

"Of course. Even though I haven't finished my studies, I'm still quite good at business. My dad always praises me for it."

Wang Qiansui said proudly.

Indeed, although Wang Qiansui only graduated from high school, he is an expert in finance and can be said to have inherited his father's business.

For a while, all the big bosses in Zhijiang begged him to give them money for investment. He made countless money every year.

"I've never heard of foreigners accepting apprentices. You were just bragging before."

"Uh... what's the difference? He taught me some things, so he is my teacher. What's the difference between a teacher and a master?" Wang Qiansui's old face turned red. What he said about teacher and apprentice before coming here was all made up by him.

"Dear guests, we are honored to have the visionary Mr. Rogers here today. China, a land full of vitality and miracles, is developing at an astonishing speed, attracting the attention of global investors. Although this is not Mr. Rogers' first visit to China, his trip to Haizhou is a brand new journey of exploration. Let us welcome Mr. Rogers to share his valuable insights with warm applause."

As the applause roared, a middle-aged man whose face was somewhat similar to Wang Qiansui gently put down the microphone.

Rogers stood on the stage next to him. He did not have the majesty of a big boss that is common in movies. Instead, he looked more like a kind old man next door. Infected by the enthusiasm of the Chinese people at the scene, his cheeks flushed slightly, and he took the microphone with a shy smile.

"First of all, I want to say that the scene I saw during my visit to China this time is completely different from the past. Everywhere is filled with a modern atmosphere. High-rise buildings are springing up like mushrooms after rain, and the streets are crowded with cars and imported cars. I am deeply shocked by the speed of all these changes. Looking back, the streets of China used to be a sea of ​​bicycles, but now they have become a prosperous and vibrant city.

I have always been cautious about the Chinese market, but the resilience and coping ability shown by China after the global financial crisis have completely changed my view. In particular, the financial defense of Hong Kong that year, the ingenuity of its strategy and its firm will are still fresh in my memory and I admire it deeply.

Therefore, I came to China this time with a heart of re-learning and re-understanding. I am eager to understand this Oriental dragon more deeply and explore the power and wisdom behind it. I believe that China will continue to write its own glorious chapter in the future and lead the world to a more prosperous future. "

Rogers' speech revealed his sincere praise and deep expectations for China, which won warm applause and resonance from everyone present.

"He's quite eloquent." Chen Xi clapped his hands and commented on this famous investor.

"Of course, he is a highly educated person." Wang Qiansui raised his head and almost added: He is my teacher.

After Rogers finished his speech, he and Wang Qiansui's father, Wang Wanfu, walked towards Chen Xi and the others.

People around picked up their phones and started taking pictures, ready to share them on social media platforms to show off.

"Is this the classmate you were talking about?"

"Hello, uncle."

"Hello, I always hear Chitose mention you..."

Wang Wanfu greeted Chen Xi.

"This is my son's classmate." Wang Wanfu introduced Chen Xi to Rogers.

Chen Xi stretched out his hand and shook hands with Rogers.

Wang Wanfu's English is not good and he needs an interpreter to communicate with Rogers, while Chen Xi and Wang Qiansui are much freer.

"Mr. Rogers, try our Haizhou seafood, all freshly caught."

Rogers looked at the seafood on the table with a bit of embarrassment on his face. Haizhou people like vinegar, and they need to dip everything in vinegar. Therefore, the food is mainly light, and most of these seafood dishes are steamed.

Westerners eat seafood completely differently. It is either eaten raw or fried or pan-fried with butter.

However, Wang Wanfu was also very thoughtful. These dishes were just for this Westerner to try something new, and the dishes specially made for him were quickly served.

Rogers immediately regained his normal expression and gave a thumbs up to the thoughtful host. "I thought your father was going to treat him to kidneys." Chen Xi said a joke in Wang Qiansui's ear.

"Show yourself more later."

"why?"

"They come to China to invest, don't you want to participate? Do you think everyone who came here today is here to take pictures? By the way, Rogers helped Australia successfully resolve a financial war a while ago..."

That mysterious man, was he?

Upon hearing the news, Chen Xi was shocked.

At the dinner table, Wang Wanfu first asked Rogers some investment questions, and then shifted the topic to the business in China.

He concealed it very well and did not mention Li Kacheng's name at all. It seemed that he did not want others to know.

Halfway through the business discussion, Wang Wanfu began to hint to his son to talk to Rogers, and Chen Xi next to them also joined in the conversation.

After learning that Rogers helped Australia out of danger in order to prevent the American investors' money from being wasted on meaningless things, Chen Xi had a new understanding of the big man in front of him. It seems that this foreign guy is not just a simple investor.

You have to know that it is often difficult for an investor to go far in business without a sense of the overall situation.

"Although Australia's capital market is not large, it is still promising. However, the Australian government has very strict control over foreign investment. Although this has protected the country's economy from being eroded by other countries, it has also led to a ceiling on its development..." Rogers began to talk to them about Australia.

Indeed, the Australian government is quite strict in this regard. Even foreigners like Chen Xi cannot buy stocks for investment. They need to go through certain institutions and follow very complicated procedures to buy them. The handling fees are also ridiculously high, which leads to no foreigners coming to Australia's capital market to play.

The economy of a country is closely related to its degree of openness. The current situation of Australia is more like the maritime ban in China's history. Although it protects the country from external attacks, it loses economic exchanges with other countries, which is not good in the long run.

Australian officials also realized this problem in the future, so they lifted restrictions on stock purchases for some foreigners.

"Yes, the measures taken by the Australian government have both advantages and disadvantages. In the past, its capital market was more active than China's, but now it has been overtaken. I expect Australia to lift restrictions in all aspects in the future. But so much time has passed, it will be difficult to turn things around..." Chen Xi expressed his views based on some policies of his previous life.

"You're right, but I've observed these listed companies in Australia. They don't have the kind of examples of other countries where companies go public relying on hype. They are all solid and excellent companies. Investing in them is relatively stable, and there won't be a waste of money. Judging from the number of wealthy people around the world who have immigrated to overseas countries, Australia has great potential. When those people have made enough money, they may buy Australian stocks to maintain their wealth growth, or they may set up funds to operate the money in their pockets..." Rogers' views are very objective. He did not directly say that Australia's capital market has no investment potential in the future, but he looked at the problem from the perspective of the world's wealthy.

This is also what makes him different from other investors. Having traveled to so many countries around the world, he is very familiar with the thoughts of the local wealthy people.

Chen Xi and Rogers chatted more and more happily, and learned a lot of useful things from him. Rogers was also very interested in this young Chinese man and found that he was better at business than he was when he was young.

The two soon became close friends regardless of age difference. Rogers was much older than his father, but this did not affect their communication.

At the end of the conversation, Chen Xi even picked up the red wine and drank with Rogers.

Wang Wanfu and Wang Qiansui were standing beside them like foils, looking at each other in bewilderment as the old man and the young boy in front of them drank and chatted happily.

The guests around were very agitated at this moment. They all wanted to go up and talk to Rogers, but no one stepped forward first.

Being timid and not knowing English, they could only sit on the chairs and take pictures of the distance with their mobile phones.

For a time, photos of Chen Xi and Rogers were everywhere on the Internet.

After eating and drinking, Wang Qiansui sat next to Rogers and enthusiastically asked him how to invest.

Then he picked up his phone and prepared to take a photo of himself and Rogers, so that he could imitate others and create momentum. As long as he announced that he had invested in a certain company, others would think that Rogers had also invested.

In this way, the stock will have a tendency to rise sharply, and he can make money by cashing it out at a high point.

"Ding ding." Suddenly, Chen Xi's cell phone rang, and he silently walked aside to answer it.

"Chen Xi, come and take a photo!" Wang Qiansui waved towards a place not far away.

But Chen Xi didn't hear it. He could only curl his lips, raise the camera, and hug Rogers to take an intimate photo.

The call was from his father Chen Yifeng, who asked him right away if he had returned to China and what he was going to do there.
Chen Xi was delighted when he heard this. His father knew about his return so quickly. Judging from his nervous expression, he must be afraid that he would ruin the wedding.

"Of course I came back to celebrate the New Year. Why are you so nervous?" Chen Xi said with a smile.

"Don't think I don't know what you want to do. Don't listen to what people outside say. Son, you have grown up now, and you should understand a lot about the relationship between men and women. There will be some conflicts between couples after living together for a long time. As the so-called seven-year itch, your mother and I have been together for more than this year. There are conflicts in life, business, and educating children..." Chen Yifeng first accused, and then turned into an old father's earnest words.

"Then you don't have to choose such a young reporter for marriage, right? Is it the one I saw last time? He's obviously not a good person. He's after your money, and he's not my friend."

"Why can't I find a younger one? Haven't I already found so many bosses? I'm the only one missing? How do you know that they are after my money? They are obviously attracted by my talent. Why is it not right with you? You will have a better relationship after knowing each other for a long time..."

Chen Yifeng became furious when he heard what his son said.

Many people think that rich people will not be cheated by women, but that is just the fantasy of poor people.

Even a smart man like Chen Yifeng was cheated of money by that woman.

Look at other bosses, such as successful businessman Chen Shubao, who had divorces so many times and all his money was divided up.

If you say he is stupid, how can he make so much money?

So there is no connection between being rich and being cheated by women.

Looking around the world, there are so many successful entrepreneurs in the East and the West who have found young and beautiful women, and many of them have had their money taken away by women. This is a fact.

These people may be very successful in business, but they are losers who are beaten in the game of love and marriage.
