My 1999

New York Quantum Fund Headquarters.

Old Soros sat in a wheelchair, watching the changes in oil futures prices from securities markets around the world on the opposite display screen.

"Alexander, how much money has been received?"

"The money from 17 institutions including JP Morgan, Citigroup, Atlantic Investment Fund, Samsung Group, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial, Sumitomo Mitsui Financial, and Hanshin Financial Group has been transferred to the company's investment account, totaling 27.7 billion US dollars.

In addition, 21 institutions including News Corporation, Disney, and Sony have added funds.

At present, the capital in our hands has exceeded 41 billion US dollars." Alexander Soros said excitedly.

Old Soros nodded slightly, "What about Goldman Sachs, AIG, MetLife, and Harvard University Foundation? No movement yet?"

"I called and just said that they are still discussing it. It seems that they want to wait and see. ... Father, we have enough funds in our hands, and there is no need to wait any longer. And the longer we wait, the greater the variables."

Old Soros nodded slightly.

Not only was he using his influence in the financial world for many years to raise funds, Xu Liang was also using his huge wealth to mobilize funds.

The longer the time dragged on, the greater the variables.

The determined old Soros raised his head and spoke firmly.

"US$5 billion, ten times leverage, short position increase."

Alexander was shocked and excited.

It seemed as if he saw the dragon-slaying plan succeed, the income of the Quantum Fund soared, and he inherited billions of assets.

——

"Mr. Xu, a huge amount of short-investment funds poured into the market, and the prices of crude oil futures in the New York Stock Exchange, Tokyo Futures, and London Futures were falling."

Lin Junrui's voice came with a hint of anxiety.

"It's finally here."

Xu Liang thought.

He was mobilizing funds, and old Soros was naturally the same.

Obviously, he had now raised enough funds that he thought were enough to defeat himself.

"Funds enter the market, proceed as planned."

Lin Junrui nodded, and the employees in the trading room began to communicate in an orderly manner with Hanhua and Hongyan's trading accounts around the world and issued trading orders.

The surging long funds quickly entered the market.

Looking at the oil futures prices that quickly stopped falling, Xu Liang's heart surged and his eyes became sharp.

"Old Soros, let's see who will win in the end."

$5 billion, $10 billion, $20 billion...

The huge amount of funds poured into the market, making the price of global oil futures like a roller coaster, up and down, but always fluctuating around $58.

Looking at the flashing numbers.

It seemed that two armies of astonishing size appeared in front of everyone, whistling and shouting, rushing against each other. Although there was no smoke, it was still tragic!

The anxious atmosphere enveloped the entire trading hall.

Except for the anxious sound of the keyboard and the nervous panting, as well as the occasional report, no other sound could be heard.

Xu Liang stood in the middle of the hall, looking up at the display screen.

He had maintained this posture for a whole morning, and seeing that the funds prepared in the account were getting less and less, his expression became solemn.

Lv Hui came over and reminded softly.

"Mr. Xu, the money in the account is all gone."

"How much money has the Pacific Fund raised?"

"Currently, there are 42.7 billion US dollars."

"Invest it."

Lv Hui nodded.

Xu Liang let out a long breath.

After looking at the jumping numbers on the display screen, he pushed the door open and walked out.

Coming up from the basement, he suddenly saw the bright sunshine outside the house, and he subconsciously closed his eyes.

In order to thwart Soros's dragon-slaying plan, he has been living underground since the two of them started fighting. When he was tired, he would take a nap in the lounge next to him. When he woke up, he would continue to raise funds and compete with Soros.

It has been half a month since he came up from the underground.

"Sir."

Seeing him, the servant who was cleaning hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

After smiling and nodding, Xu Liang came out of the back door and was greeted by a huge backyard.

His manor in Atherton, Silicon Valley, covers an area of ​​5.5 acres, equivalent to 34 mu, 22,600 square meters.

The villa in the center occupies less than one-tenth of the area.

The remaining area, apart from the horse farm and a picking garden, at least half of the area is well-maintained lawn.

Stepping on the soft lawn and smelling the fragrance of the grass, the depression in his heart also dissipated for the most part.

Coming to the tall oak tree in front, he sat down with his buttocks, leaning his body against the thick trunk, and smiled.

"It's been a long time since I came out for a walk."

Lv Hui, who followed him, also sat down next to him.

"You seem to be worried?"

Xu Liang glanced at her, "Except for my mother, I guess you know me best among all the women in the world."

Lv Hui's mouth curled up slightly.

She followed Xu Liang every day, and the two of them lived together day and night, how could they not understand?

"Then can you share your worries with me?" Lv Hui hugged her knees with her hands, turned her head and showed a bright smile.

"It's nothing.

They have always said that I am a genius. Although I don't think I am as good as they say, I am still a talent, right?

But I didn't understand it until now.

I'm just an ordinary person with good luck." Xu Liang said self-deprecatingly.

In order to thwart Soros's plan to shoot down the sun.

He originally planned to mortgage Hongyan's equity assets, plus all the US dollar cash, for a total investment of about US$50 billion.

If the money is lost, he will stop.

But when all the money was invested, but still unable to thwart the dragon-slaying plan, he broke his original plan and invested all the cash assets of Hanhua and the Huaxia Coin assets of Hongyan.

After investing, it’s still not enough.

He also mortgaged 90% of Hongyan's mortgageable assets and withdrew 80% of Hongmeng's working capital.

So far, the capital he has raised has exceeded US$120 billion.

Then I made up my mind again to invest this money, no matter whether I win or lose, I will stop.

But now he has broken the rules he once set.

Let the Pacific Fund liquidate its investments in gold, iron ore, etc., and mobilize funds to invest in this war.

Breaking his own rules three times in a row made Xu Liang's emotions complicated.

It turns out that I really can't do it right away.

It is even less possible to overcome greed.

When he lost US$30 billion or even US$50 billion, he still couldn't accept it and either actively or passively bet more chips.

Like a gambler who loses, he must win back.

He is also not decisive enough.

If more than 120 billion US dollars, or even the huge funds in the Hanhua Pacific Fund, had been taken out from the beginning, oil prices would have exploded long ago.

There is no need to be in a stalemate with old Soros for so long.

Shengsheng turned a winning battle with an advantage into a bad battle with tactics.

In both respects, he is an ordinary person.

There is no extraordinary character or concentration.

It's just good luck that I'm where I am now.

Like a pig flying into the wind.

If he has any merit, he is quite accurate in judging people.

Most of the people selected have extraordinary talents and can be said to know people well and do their jobs well.

The selected women are all of good quality, and so far there has been no cuckolding incident.

When he was thinking about it and feeling emotional, a tenderness came into his heart.

Turning around to look, he saw that his hand was firmly held by the beauty beside him.

"You are not an ordinary person, you are a genius recognized by everyone in the world, including me.

Except for you, no one in the world can own $200 billion in assets at the age of twenty-six.

Except for you, no one in the world can easily work with so many of the world's top financiers and entrepreneurs, including George Soros, Larry Ellison, and Paul George, and has been suppressing them.

Except for you, there is no man in the world who is worthy of so many outstanding women, including me, surrounding you, even if they have no fame or status, they are still happy.

Therefore, you are a genius.

A genius that is unique in the world and appears only once in a century. "

Seeing the woman's affirmative, even firm eyes, Xu Liang felt warm and reached out to pull her into his arms.

Lu Hui also put aside the shyness and scruples of the past, and firmly hugged the thick waist of the man next to her, as if she wanted to rub her graceful body into the other's body.

"It's a blessing that I can have a confidante like you in my life." Xu Liang brushed her jade back with his right hand and said with emotion.

Lu Hui didn't answer, but hugged her tighter.

I don’t know how much time passed.

Jingle bell bell…

The sudden ringing of the cell phone interrupted the silent tenderness between the two.

After looking at the caller ID, Xu Liang pressed the answer button.

Before he could speak.

Lin Junrui's excited voice came over.

"Mr. Xu, good news, shocking good news, we are going to win!!"

This was the first time Lin Junrui was so excited in front of him.

It's not clear or convenient to explain on the phone.

Stand up suddenly.

"Come on, we'll go back right away."

Lu Hui also heard Lin Junrui's voice and nodded quickly.

The two of them jogged all the way back to the underground trading room.

As soon as he entered the door, Lin Junrui greeted him with excitement.

"Mr. Xu, I just received news that a new Category 5 hurricane has appeared in the Gulf of Mexico."

"real?!"

Lu Hui said in surprise.

In order to deal with the old Soros, Xu Liang collected all the factors that can affect oil prices.

One of the key ones is the hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico.

This is not only a hurricane-prone area, but also one of the world's oil, gas and snow-rich areas.

Since the 1940s, these deposits have been heavily exploited and account for a large portion of U.S. domestic demand.

Once a major hurricane occurs, especially the top Category 5 hurricane, it will inevitably threaten oil and gas production along the Gulf of Mexico and cause oil prices to rise.

"Do you know its route?"

Xu Liang asked quickly while being happy.

"It's not very clear yet. The U.S. Hurricane Center has said it will make landfall along the coast, but in which state it will be, we don't know yet."

After a pause, Lin Junrui's face showed strong desire.

"I really hope the hurricane makes landfall in Texas or Louisiana."
