Rebirth 2006, creating a super consortium

Under the management of Luxi and Liang Fan, the allocation of the $140 billion from Yuanfang Private Equity went very smoothly!

Among them, $20 billion was invested in John Paulson’s fund company, which is equivalent to buying a safe insurance. It is expected to get a minimum return rate of about 6 times in the next year!

The US$50 billion will be used to sweep up CDS trading certificates and CDO short positions issued by major investment banks. The estimated return rate of this investment is about 10 to 15 times.

Of course, when we talk about major investment banks, Anxin has actually strictly set very precise targets in this regard, all of which are investment banks that can obtain rescue funds from various governments in the future.

For example, investment banks like JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Deutsche Bank, rather than the old unlucky guy like Lehman Brothers!

Moreover, sweeping the CDS and CDO short-selling villages issued by major investment banks is only part of Anxin's plan for the bond market, with an investment of only about US$30 billion.

The remaining US$20 billion is directly aimed at HSBC!

Oh, no, to be more precise, it is actually targeting Hang Seng Bank, a subsidiary of HSBC!

If the plan succeeds, Far East Bank can take the opportunity to acquire a regional banking giant and accomplish the feat of a small company swallowing an elephant.

It doesn't matter if the plan fails. HSBC will have to pay a huge sum of tens of billions of dollars in compensation anyway, and Far East Bank can still use the compensation to merge with other banks.

Anyway, HSBC is going to bleed heavily anyway.

The remaining $70 billion was used to short sell global stock indices.

Considering the huge volatility of the market, the estimated rate of return on this investment can only be said to be higher than that of the bond market, but the specific estimated rate of return will have to wait until the subprime mortgage crisis is completely settled before it can be finalized.

After spending a few minutes carefully reading the capital flow report, An Xin nodded with satisfaction, covered the document and returned it to Lu Xi, praising: "Lu Xi, you and Liang Fan did a perfect job in trading, and I will never forget your efforts!"

After Lu Xi carefully put the documents back into the file bag, he smiled at An Xin very modestly and replied, "Boss, you are too kind. We should share the emperor's worries and eat his salary. To put it bluntly, this is what we should do!"

An Xin waved her hand slightly and said, "Lu Xi, don't underestimate yourself. Even if you look at the global financial market, there are very few trading teams qualified to execute tens of billions of dollars of investment. There may be only a dozen at most. You are one of them now, you should be proud!"

Lu Xi smiled calmly and said, "Boss, our team is indeed capable of executing a multi-billion dollar operation, but we are still a long way from being a truly top-level operation team!"

"But don't worry, we are currently in a stage of rapid growth. I believe that after a large amount of capital operation, we will soon become a truly top-notch trading team!"

Lu Xi is very self-aware. He knows that his team’s current core positioning is only one: execution!

Execute the investment goals you set with peace of mind!

To be honest, this operation is not without difficulty, but it is indeed a bit short of the world's top trading teams!

Lu Xi obviously doesn't want her team to stop here!

An Xin certainly saw through Lu Xi's little thoughts.

To put it bluntly, it’s nothing more than a question of freedom!

Of course I will give you freedom, but it’s impossible to give it now!

Are you kidding? You don't use the advantage of rebirth and let Luxi and the others do these unnecessary things. Aren't you crazy?

Of course, some small-scale attempts are still very necessary!

After a little thought, An Xin looked at Lu Xi, who was full of expectation, and said in a deep voice: “Lu Xi, I know what you want, but to be honest, I won’t give you this thing now!”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xi simply nodded to show that she understood, and had no intention of further striving for it.

Obviously, he had anticipated this result and was not particularly disappointed.

After glancing at the expressionless Lu Xi, An Xin changed the subject and said with a smile: "Of course, after this operation is over, I will allow you to form a $10 billion level operation team within Star Capital. The specific investment direction of this operation team will be completely up to you, and I will not interfere in any way!"

Lu Xi suddenly looked up at An Xin, her eyes full of surprise, excitement, disbelief and other emotions. After calming down for a while, she still couldn't suppress her emotions and said excitedly: "Thank you, boss, I promise..."

"Stop, stop, stop!" An Xin stretched out her hand to stop Lu Xi's expression of loyalty, and said slowly: "Lu Xi, I don't want to hear any more promises. Let me be frank with you. Merits will be rewarded, and mistakes will be punished. You should weigh the meaning of this sentence yourself!"

One billion US dollars is something that Anxin can afford, so he is willing to bear the price and allow Luxi to make some attempts with a higher degree of freedom!

After all, the rebirth advantage has only been around for more than ten years, and we really need to make some attempts to prepare for a rainy day. Luxi's operating team is one of the attempts!

Lu Xi didn't care about all that mess, he just knew that he was very excited at the moment!

I didn't expect that by just giving it a try, I could actually get a billion-dollar level trading team that was completely run by me!

This is huge progress!

As a retainer, he really knows An Xin too well!

He saw the indelible desire for control in An Xin's bones!

This desire for control is based on almost rigid requirements for the operating team!

It can even be said that the trading team does not have even a trace of freedom beyond the plan!

All the operating plans have been finalized early on. No matter how much the employees below do not understand the operating plans or how much they disagree with them, it is impossible to change Anxin's decision!

Execution is the only main theme of the trading team!

But now, An Xin actually gave in!

Of course, the opening was indeed loosened, but it also came with some unpredictable consequences.

It was done and everyone was happy.

If it is not done well, the consequences will probably be very serious.

However, Luxi is not particularly worried about this, because he has absolute confidence in both himself and his team!

"call…"

After taking a deep breath, Lu Xi adjusted his state and nodded calmly, saying: "Boss, I know the priorities!"

"Well, that's good if you know!"

An Xin nodded slightly after hearing this, and after a little thought, she said in a deep voice: "Lu Xi, I have some new ideas for Star Capital, can you help me find out the deficiencies and fill in the gaps!"

Lu Xi immediately corrected his attitude and said in a very steady tone: "Boss, please speak!"

"I plan to adjust the core structure of Star Capital!"

"what?"

Lucy was confused...
