My 1999

"Kunpeng Fund 2? How much money will be raised and in which direction will it be invested?" Gates asked quickly.

"The amount of funds raised has not yet been determined, and the investment direction is still futures." Xu Liang did not say much.

"Mr. Xu, please leave me a share of US$500 million in Kunpeng No. 2 Fund."

After a brief hesitation, Gates made up his mind.

Hanhua, or Xu Liang's investment ability has been proven through success again and again. Especially this time, even if it is not as much as what the newspapers said, it is still tens of billions in profit.

He was completely convinced of Xu Liang's investment ability.

"Mr. Gates is our senior client of Hanhua, so there is certainly no problem with his share of US$500 million." Xu Liangdao.

"Haha, when will Mr. Xu come to the United States, let's have a good get-together."

"It should be soon."

"Then I'll wait for Mr. Xu's call."

"no problem."

"By the way. Mr. Xu can call me if he encounters difficulties in the United States."

Bill Gates saw Xu Liang's ability and planned to invest more in him.

This ‘investment’ is not a financial investment, but a human connection.

"Thank you Mr. Gates. If I really encounter difficulties that I can't solve, I will definitely talk to you."

After chatting for a few more words, Xu Liang hung up the phone.

After Bill Gates, someone else called.

The news from the Wall Street Journal stirred up a stir, and everyone who knew Xu Liang, even just once, called to inquire.

These days, what he does most is make phone calls.

——

"Xu Liang, the founder of Hanhua Capital, made tens of billions of dollars from investing in long oil! ... Damn the Washington Post, what do they want to do? Why don't they report it as we said?!"

Larry Ellison angrily threw the newspaper in his hand to the ground.

"Not just the Washington Post, but the Los Angeles Daily News in my hand directly said that Xu Liang of Hanhua Capital lost US$3 billion by shorting oil!" Paul Singer said coldly.

Alexander Soros put down his copy of Newsweek and sighed.

“The true and false news has distracted everyone’s attention from the Wall Street Journal. Now most ordinary people regard this matter as a joke, and not many people pay attention to its authenticity.

Hanhua Capital and Xu Liang are really powerful. "

"Damn it, these bastards promised us originally, why did they change their minds at the last minute?" Larry Ellison said angrily.

In this oil speculation, although I went long later, I made up for most of the losses.

But he still lost nearly $2 billion.

Compared with Xu Liangfeng's enviable harvest, his anger and malice not only did not decrease, but actually increased.

"I asked about it from my friends. The main reason why these media changed their minds was because of money." Carey Killinger said.

"Money? Don't we give enough money?" Larry Ellison said angrily.

"no the same……."

"What's the difference? Isn't the money we gave us dollars?"

"Larry, calm down. Let Carey finish speaking." Howard Eisen quickly dissuaded him.

Ellison took a breath and was so angry that he didn't speak again.

Killinger, who was interrupted, frowned, suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said slowly.

“Hanhua Capital has currently registered a new fund, Kunpeng Fund No. 2, which also focuses on futures investment.

This new fund has just raised funds. Hanhua Capital called the management of large media companies across the United States and told them that Kunpeng Fund No. 2 would set aside fund shares for them at the cost of reporting unfair information about Hanhua and Xu Liang themselves. Real news. "

"You mean to say that the despicable Chinese defeated us who spent 10 million US dollars in public relations fees without spending a penny?" Ellison said angrily.

Killinger nodded, "The return rate of Kunpeng Fund is too high. The principal of 2.84 billion U.S. dollars was exchanged for 8.96 billion U.S. dollars in pre-tax profits within three months. This is a return rate of more than three times. No one can Can refuse.

Moreover, the ultra-high returns of Qinglong Fund also prove Xu Liang’s investment ability.

The heads of major media outlets are also human beings, and they will not refuse the opportunity to double their net worth.

In contrast, our public relations fees are only given to the media; not to the CEO or COO.

The former is a company and the latter is a private person.

If I were in the position of these media CEOs, I would also choose Hanhua. "

Ellison stopped talking after hearing this. He is also a smart man.

From another perspective, he would also choose Hanhua.

"It seems that our plan will fail again this time." Paul Singer sighed.

"Damn, why does that bastard always have such good luck?!"

Ellison refused.

John Thornton, sitting in the corner, said nothing.

He had already expected that these people would not succeed.

No one except the enemy will reject a person who can lead everyone to make a fortune.

"Can we link Xu Liang's profit to the Iraq war?" Alexander Soros suddenly said.

Noticing the looks that everyone was looking at, Alexander's eyes flashed with a sinister light.

"For example, it was Xu Liang who stole the news that Washington was preparing to go to war with Iraq, so he decisively invested huge sums of money."

"Alexander, your idea is great. Send that bastard directly to prison." Ellison said excitedly.

Killinger pondered for a moment, "Alexander, things are not as easy as you think.

Let’s not talk about whether a businessman can steal important information from Washington.

Hanhua Capital invested in oil bulls on November 2 last year, half a year before the war broke out. After such a long time, Washington may not have made a decision to go to war with Iraq.

Of course, this is not the point.

What is really important is that Hanhua has connected too many people through continuous financing.

They all want to make money through Hanhua, and anyone who affects this plan is their enemy. And they will also take the initiative to protect Hanhua and Xu Liang from these criticisms. "

After a pause, Killinger looked around at everyone and said slowly.

“Everyone, we all know that in America, money is everything!

Hanhua and Xu Liang happen to be able to lead everyone to make money. "

"Carey, why are you speaking for that damn Chinese? Could it be that Washington Mutual Bank has also become an investor in Hanhua Capital?" Ellison said coldly.

Carey Killinger had an angry look on his face.

"Allison, I'm not that despicable." Hua Luo stood up, "Forget it, I'm done. If you want to listen, just listen. If you don't want to, forget it."

After saying that, he turned around and walked outside.

After this period of contact, he finally understood.

The bunch of guys sitting here don't have much ability, and they think about scheming people every day.

I have been taught a lesson several times, but I still don’t remember it long.

If we continue to hang out with them, Washington Mutual Bank may suffer even more losses.

"Kyrie, calm down. Ellison didn't mean it. He lost so much money this time, so it's normal to be angry." Howard Eisen quickly grabbed Killinger who was leaving.

A Killinger may not be important, but if you let him go.

Their little group might really fall apart.

Without the help of everyone, ten Ellisons are no match for Xu Liang.

Ellison snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Although he has a bad temper, he is not a fool, and of course he knows the importance of Killinger.

After Howard's persuasion, the latter also borrowed the donkey's foot and sat down again.

After all this noise, everyone agreed to Alexander's proposal.

Just like he said.

Even if Xu Liang's rhetoric fails to dissuade him this time, it will stick like a thorn in his flesh.

As long as Xu Liang's investment fails one day, this rhetoric will become an excuse for everyone to share Hanhua.

Moreover, this is the only solution they can think of now.

Although Ellison was unwilling to do so, that was all he could do.

Sometimes, personal connections are important, but the key is ability.

Xu Liang's investment ability naturally restrains them.

——

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Xu Liang smiled and shook his head.

"Say that I stole the news about the US's use of force in Iraq? Ellison and his gang seem to have no other options. They can even come up with this kind of excuse."

He kept the newspaper aside.

"Send a message to Chu Gang and ask him to contact the major media to suppress the news."

Lu Hui nodded.

Although this news is unreliable, it can easily cause trouble if left unchecked.

"what time is it?"

"Nine o'clock in half an hour."

Lu Huidao.

Xu Liang stood up and said, "Get ready, it's time for us to set off."

"OK."

Half an hour later, Xu Liang left Loren Manor with An Kaiyue, who was dressed up.

By the way, Loren Manor has now been renamed ‘Xu Family Garden’.

Xu Liang, who had made a fortune in oil futures, bought it directly from the Cadogan family.

Xu Liang bought not only a Loren manor, but also a newly ordered Boeing 737 private jet.

Although his Golden Eagle was good, flying across the Pacific Ocean required a layover in the middle.

The cramped cabin space is also far from comfortable.

In comparison, the Boeing business jet [BBJ2] has a cabin area of ​​302.5 square meters, which is completely like a sky villa. Coupled with a range of nearly 12,000 kilometers, it is completely possible to fly across the Pacific from Beijing to Los Angeles or San Francisco, achieving true intercontinental travel.

In addition to aircraft, Xu Liang also ordered five Maybach bulletproof cars, once again expanding the bodyguard team.

At any time, your own life is the most important.

Especially when abroad.

This set cost him nearly 150 million US dollars.

This expenditure is placed under the Hongyan Fund, and the money spent can also pay less tax.

Subsequent maintenance can also be billed to the company.

"Honey, what are you thinking about?"

An Kaiyue, who was wearing a slightly conservative white evening dress, her hair tied high, and an English top hat, held his arm and asked.

"Nothing, some company matters." He turned to look at her cheerful look and couldn't help but smile, "Why are you so happy?"

"Of course I'm happy. It's such an honor to be invited by the Queen of England to attend a dinner at Buckingham Palace. I never thought I would have this day. ... My dear, you are so awesome. I adore you.”

Looking at her admiring eyes, Xu Liang couldn't help but feel a little prouder.

He hugged her slender waist and said with a smile: "Follow me carefully from now on. Let alone Buckingham Palace, even the Elysee Palace or even the White House, we can be invited to take a tour."

"Um."

An Kaiyue nodded obediently.

Now she has completely convinced this man and no longer cares whether he has other women.

In the past few years, she has also understood that no woman can restrain a man like Xu Liang.
