My 1999

Xu Liang's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "James, for your sake, I will consider this matter carefully."

"Consider?"

"Of course, for such an important matter, I certainly need to refer to the advice of the think tank." Xu Liang said as a matter of course.

"How long will it take us to get the results?"

"One week, I will call you within a week."

"Okay, just one week."

Xu Liang smiled and looked at the expressions of the two.

"Do you have anything else to do? If not, I have to say goodbye, there are beauties waiting at home."

The two looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.

"Since Mr. Xu has a beautiful woman to accompany him, we will not disturb you."

Xu Liang stood up, "Then see you in a week."

The two nodded.

They shook hands with each other.

"Mr. Hughes, thank you for your hospitality."

Paul Hughes said quickly: "Mr. Xu is polite, you are a distinguished guest of the Morgan Club, and the door here is always open to you."

After smiling and nodding, Xu Liang turned and left the room.

A group of people came to the hall, talking and laughing.

As soon as they walked out of the stairs, they saw a tall figure walking quickly.

Xu Liang's bodyguards immediately blocked the way.

The man hurriedly said, "Mr. Xu, I am Donald, a VIP customer of Hanhua. We met at Hanhua's investment reception."

Xu Liang saw the big golden back hair and the younger but very familiar face.

Isn't this the King of Understanding?

He patted Huo Gang on the shoulder, "Gangzi, relax."

Huo Gang nodded and turned to make way.

"Mr. Donald, what's the matter?"

The King of Understanding quickly took out a gold-plated business card from his pocket.

"Mr. Xu, this is my business card."

Xu Liang took it. The front of the business card was the phone number, and the back was the sassy head of the King of Understanding.

"Mr. Xu, you are the world-class business genius and investment elite that I respect the most. Your talent is unparalleled. I hope to have the opportunity to ask you about business management and investment in person."

Looking at the mercenary face of the King of Understanding in front of him, he is still an ordinary rich man that not many people care about. He has a little influence in the hotel, real estate and entertainment industries, and he can't get into the eyes of top figures at all.

But ten years later, he will take over Obama's burden and become the most unrestrained president in American history.

Thinking of this, Xu Liang took out a business card and handed it over.

"Call me if you have the chance in the future."

Trump was overjoyed. He originally planned to get familiar with his face, but he didn't expect to get a business card. It was too unexpected.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, thank you very much."

Xu Liang smiled and walked out.

When they came to the door, they simply said hello and separated.

James Goldman and Lloyd Blankfein got in the same car.

"Do you know that Trump?" Lloyd asked.

"Know him? Trump Hotel is his industry."

Lloyd understood.

As a five-star hotel chain brand, Trump Hotel also has a certain influence in the business world.

"Just a hotel?"

"There are also several office buildings and resorts, but the operations are not very successful."

"How could such a person attract the attention of Golden Caesar?" Lloyd asked in confusion.

James couldn't figure it out either.

"Maybe because he is a client of Hanhua?"

Lloyd shook his head, "It's better to investigate."

"Lloyd, don't be too nervous. We only provide funds for this matter. The specific operation is the business of those guys. Whether it succeeds or fails, we make money."

Lloyd said calmly: "Golden Caesar is much more difficult to deal with than I thought, and our plan may not succeed."

"It is definitely difficult to deal with, otherwise he would not have developed to this point. Otherwise, those guys would not be so cautious." Looking at him, James smiled and said, "As for the plan, it is best to succeed, but it doesn't matter if it fails.

This is not the key."

Lloyd nodded.

"Morgan Stanley really doesn't plan to join?"

"The risk is too high, there is no need. What, Goldman Sachs plans to join?" James asked with a smile.

"Like you said, the risk is too high."

The two smiled. They were both old foxes, and a few words could not test their true thoughts.

——

Knock knock...

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Lv Hui pushed the door open, holding a porcelain bowl with steam in her hand.

Put it on the low table next to her.

"I made you a bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup. Do you want to try it?"

"Okay, I'm a little hungry."

Xu Liang got up and walked around the desk and sat down next to it.

Opening the lid, a fresh fragrance came to his nose.

"It tastes really good."

"Try it."

Took the spoon from Lu Hui's hand, scooped some, blew it briefly, and put it into his mouth.

After tasting it briefly, he nodded and praised.

"Not bad, your soup-making skills have improved again."

Lv Hui smiled, "As long as you like it."

"Would you like some?"

"No, I just ate some downstairs." Lu Hui waved her hand.

"Then I won't be polite."

Xu Liang ate the whole bowl of porridge with the side dishes prepared by Jia Ren.

He wiped his mouth with satisfaction and patted his belly.

"Having a full meal is the greatest satisfaction."

Lv Hui smiled and simply cleaned up the table.

Sitting next to Xu Liang, "I saw that you have been worried since I came back tonight. What happened?"

Among the women around him, apart from his relatives, Lu Hui stayed with him the longest.

In the past five years, not to mention every moment, but half of the time, the two of them have been together.

When it comes to understanding, Lu Hui understands the men around her better than any woman.

After looking at her, Xu Liang briefly told the story of his meeting with James Goldman and Lloyd Blankfein tonight.

“$20 billion in low-interest loans?”

Xu Liang nodded slightly, "I originally planned to use this number to test, but I didn't expect that they actually agreed. Especially now, the Fed's interest rate hike cycle continues.

You actually plan to lend me so much money at 5.9% interest?

This is not the style of Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs. "

What is capital?

A devil that eats people without spitting out their bones!

The only thing that can make them give up their interests is greater interests.

Therefore, there must be something promised to Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs.

Who is the key party hiding in the dark?

What's the purpose?

"Someone is targeting you?"

Lu Hui said with a solemn expression.

Xu Liang nodded slowly, "Who is the key opponent? What is the plan?"

"It must be Larry Ellison of Oracle." Lu Hui said.

Xu Liang rubbed his chin. He had many enemies in the United States.

Ellison is just one of them.

Also remaining is Elliott Management CEO Paul Singer.

The Soros family of Quantum Fund.

The four major grain merchants: ADM, Bunge, Louis Dreyfus and Cargill.

Search giant Google and even Amazon and Yahoo are possibilities.

As the company gets bigger and there are more enemies, it's difficult to tell who is really behind the scenes.

"What are you going to do?"

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Now there are two ways in front of Xu Liang: take advantage of the situation and wait and see.

The former takes the initiative, while the latter waits passively.

He didn't like waiting, but he wasn't sure whether it was feasible to resort to tricks.

The key is, if someone is really targeting you secretly, where will they do it?

Hongmeng, Master Kong, or Vivendi?

Xu Liangliang shook his head.

Even if a company fails, it does not pose much of a threat to itself.

And the benefits are too small, I'm afraid they won't even be divided.

If several companies take action at the same time, the most they will do is short the stock price, which will not have any substantial impact.

After all, except for Vivendi, other companies basically do not have too high liabilities and their operations are also very stable.

If it's not a company, it's investment.

Venture and equity investments are unlikely.

Venture capital is not listed, and the targets are too small, the number is too large, and it is too troublesome.

Equity investments, each portfolio has a dozen different companies.

Not only is it difficult, but the key is offending people.

"So, the last possible options are futures, exchange rates, and subprime debt."

Subprime debt is unlikely.

The way he shorted subprime debt was through guaranteed debentures, and the handling fee for guaranteed debentures rated 3A was too low.

Only 0.2%.

No matter how long he goes, it is impossible for him to suffer too big a loss.

exchange rate.

Mainly Chinese coins.

Hanhua Pacific No. 1 Fund invested US$10 billion in this, doing long positions through many markets such as the US dollar, Japanese yen, and Hong Kong dollars.

After a year and a half, the leverage has been used to 2.7 times, leveraging 27 billion US dollars to go long. It is one of the largest players in the Chinese foreign exchange market.

If he goes short on the foreign exchange market, it will really cause him huge losses.

However, the fundamental reason for the rise and fall of the foreign exchange market is still related to the country's exchange rate policy.

Now the United States wants the Chinese currency to appreciate, and China also plans to appreciate the currency. This is the general trend.

If those guys hiding in the dark bumped into him, Xu Liang wouldn't mind having a fight with them in the foreign exchange market.

He is on the side of the general trend and is sure to win.

Finally, there are futures.

He invests in many types of futures.

Mainly divided into two categories.

One category is crude oil, iron ore, copper ore and coal.

One category is precious metals including gold and silver.

The most likely ones are crude oil and gold.

These two are highly interdependent. If crude oil rises, gold will generally rise, and vice versa.

More importantly, the markets for crude oil and gold are large enough.

The former’s annual trading volume is close to 100 million lots and US$6 trillion.

The latter’s annual trading volume is nearly $4 trillion.

Even if hundreds of billions of dollars are manipulated to enter, the two major markets can still fully absorb it.

This is the fighting field that is truly suitable for him. If he wins, he will earn more; if he loses, he will also lose... more!

“Is it gold or crude oil?”

Xu Liang pondered for a while.

He thought it was crude oil.

Because the crude oil market is larger, he invested the most.

Not just Pacific 2 Fund, but also Vidywang Group, Hynix Group and Red Rock Fund.

Taken together, the principal invested by various companies exceeds 10 billion U.S. dollars, and the customer funds are 6 billion U.S. dollars.

If leverage is included, it will be doubled or even more.

Shorting crude oil will definitely touch your sensitive nerves, and then you will end up fighting.

But now the rise in crude oil is an international trend, and it is not something that a few enterprise groups can do to reverse this trend.

Washington must come forward.

Xu Liang was shocked and his expression suddenly changed.

If his guess is correct, it means that he is not facing just a few companies, but a huge interest group that combines politics and business.

They regard themselves as fat pigs, intending to kill them and drink them.

Only sufficiently large interest groups can drive Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs to serve them.

Give yourself a loan at a low interest rate.

The purpose is to allow him to have enough funds to invest when oil prices or gold prices fall in the future.

Wait until his working capital is almost invested.

These people will completely drive down the price of oil or gold, swallowing up all their investments.

By the way, he also ate up all the assets that were mortgaged.

Even if you can keep some of your assets by then, most of the industry you have earned through your hard work over the years will probably be lost.

But, if you understand the opponent's purpose, can you retreat in advance?

I'm afraid not.

Because he has invested principal, raised capital and leverage in oil, totaling huge assets of US$30 billion.

Once you retreat, the other party will probably take action immediately.

By then, your losses will be extremely huge.

And not only is the money lost, Pacific Fund's unbeaten reputation will also fade.

When the time comes, it will not be so easy for him to use the shares of this fund in exchange for benefits and promote the development of other industries under his banner.

So it's killing two birds with one stone.

The low-interest loans from Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are not just loans, they are also a declaration of war.

Tell him Xu Liang clearly.

We are ready.

Are you going to fight with all your strength, or are you going to cut yourself off and leave?

"When I acquired Vidy Wang Group and enjoyed the joy of success, the blow was so painful and cruel!"

Xu Liang gritted his teeth.

"Mr. Xu, what did you think of?"

Seeing Xu Liang frowning, angry, and disbelieving for a while, Lu Hui felt inexplicably panicked.

Over the years, she had rarely seen this expression on a man's face.

Looking at her concerned eyes, Xu Liang held her cold jade hand, patted it gently and comforted her.

"It's okay, I just thought of some possibilities."

The matter this time was too big. Xu Liang was still sorting out his thoughts and was not ready to tell Lu Hui.

Looked at the time.

"Let's go, it's time for us to rest."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Lu Hui didn't ask any more questions.

Come to the bedroom.

Because her health was not yet well, Xu Liang did not show off his power.

After taking a bath, I hugged the beauty and fell asleep.

It was still raining outside the window, but Xu Liang was a little sleepless.

This was the first time since his rebirth that he had insomnia.

I felt an unprecedented struggle and hesitation in my heart.

No matter which way I choose, I feel like I have no bottom line.
