My 1999

New York St. George Private Hospital.

The old Soros, who was old, white-haired and listless, lay on his back on the hospital bed.

Five members of the Soros family were sitting or standing around him.

"Although we withdrew in time, the leverage was too high, and Hurricane Katrina came too quickly. The principal invested..." After looking at his father's expression, Alexander said slowly, "Only 11% is left."

Old Soros slowly closed his eyes and his breathing became rapid.

"Father."

The people around him hurriedly gathered around.

After taking a deep breath, Old Soros slowly said: "I'm fine. Alexander, if there is any bad news, tell us together."

"The customers who invested in our Quantum Fund, especially those who invested in the Dragon Slaying Plan, are now clamoring to withdraw their funds. They said..."

"What?"

"They said they had enough and didn't want a third Hong Kong-style failure."

Alexander looked nervous. He knew very well that the tragic failure in Hong Kong was a nightmare in his father's heart.

Old Soros clenched his fists, and anger appeared on his old and haggard face.

After a long time,

"Where's Jin Caesar?"

"Jin Caesar closed his positions when we closed them. I've been taking care of you in the hospital these days, so I don't know if Hanhua has closed his positions and left."

"Father, I think you should ask why Alexander violated your order to continue to go long and closed his positions privately."

The middle-aged man with a thin face, deep eye sockets, and a sinister look standing aside with his arms folded said coldly.

"Father, I was originally going to execute your orders, but Ellison and Paul Singer all asked me to close my positions immediately. I don't have your prestige, and I can't control the company's employees. I can only watch them forcefully close their positions, so..."

"Tsk tsk, you are really excellent. As the heir of the Quantum Fund, you can't even control the company!"

"Robert!"

Old Soros said in a deep voice.

Feeling the anger in his father's words, Robert closed his mouth.

Seeing all this, Alexander's eyes flashed with a strange look.

"If you make a mistake, you will be punished. You should not go to the company during this period."

"Yes."

He was not allowed to go to the company, but he was not dismissed from his position as vice president of Quantum Fund.

This kind of punishment of lifting high and then letting go lightly made Robert very dissatisfied.

"Father, I think I am more suitable for managing Quantum Fund than Alexander, especially during this period of time when too many people have withdrawn their capital and the company is in turmoil. People like me who are familiar with the operation of Quantum Fund are more needed."

Looking at him, Old Soros said slowly.

"Robert, let me think about it first."

Looking at his eldest brother who couldn't wait to take the position, Alexander showed sarcasm.

The old man has a strong desire for control.

Before he wants to give up, he will never allow anyone in Quantum Fund to threaten his position.

Even his own son is not allowed.

It is precisely because he saw through this that he has been humble and small for these years, always taking the blame for the old man, successfully squeezing out the eldest and second sons, and becoming the "Eastern Palace Prince" of Quantum Fund.

This time, it was actually correct to go against the old man's breath and attack the heart to close the position.

It did not cause the Quantum Fund to suffer greater losses.

But violation is violation.

The old man would punish him for the sake of face.

This is taking the blame.

He agreed without any objection, which undoubtedly gave the old man a way out.

Compared with the boss who was eager to get promoted, he was of course more considerate.

So he was not worried at all about losing the inheritance of Quantum Fund.

"Father, the company is in chaos now, and there is not much time to think about it." Robert said hurriedly.

Looking at him, the old Soros's expression turned cold.

"Robert, I'm not dead yet."

The cold eyes made Robert Soros tremble in his heart.

"Father, I don't mean that..."

"Okay, I'm tired, Alexander stays, everyone else go out."

Robert's face changed, and after angrily glaring at Alexander opposite, he walked out angrily.

"Robert?"

He was about to get in the car, and turned to look at his brother behind him.

"Jonathan, is there anything?"

"It's almost noon, let's eat together."

Robert nodded, "Get in the car."

Jonathan smiled and followed.

Seeing this, Susan Soros, who followed behind, sneered: "It's been so long, I didn't expect him to still not give up."

"Tens of billions of dollars of assets, not to mention Robert, even I can't bear to give it up." William Soros said faintly.

Glancing at him, Susan smiled and said: "If you really want to compete with Alexander, I don't mind supporting you."

Old Soros has two wives.

Robert and Jonathan are the sons of the first wife.

William, Alexander and Susan are the descendants of the second wife.

Therefore, the relationship between the three is closer than that between Robert and Jonathan.

"Forget it, I'm just an ordinary university teacher, I don't understand finance." William shrugged.

His family knows his own business.

He doesn't have that ability, even if he wants to compete, he can't compete with Alexander.

Turning his head.

"Susan, if you are willing, maybe your father will consider it."

His sister is a doctor of law from Harvard, especially good at business lawsuits.

She is a real elite.

"Forget it, the old man is so old-fashioned. With Robert, Jonathan and Alexander, he won't pass the Quantum Fund to me. ... Let's go. There's a new French restaurant on Beacon Street. I heard it tastes good."

William nodded and followed.

——

Gulp...

The purple-red wine rolled into the glass, reflecting the sunlight outside the window, and it tasted quite crystal clear.

Jonathan Soros picked up the wine glass, gestured from a distance and took a sip.

"Robert, you are too impatient. You should know the old man's character very well. He won't give you the Quantum Fund."

Robert Soros took a sip of red wine.

"Of course I know, but I just can't accept it.

After the failure of Quantum Fund's investment in Hong Kong, if we hadn't tried our best to appease customers and stabilize the company, there would be no future glory of Quantum Fund.

As a result, we paid so much, but Alexander, that playboy who was raised by a bitch, took away our inheritance rights?

Why?!"

Jonathan sighed, "Robert, although I don't like Alexander, it is fair to say that he is a very capable person, and he also knows how to please his father.

It is almost impossible for you to take the inheritance rights from him."

Robert fell silent.

Of course he knew that the possibility was not high, otherwise he would not have forced the palace directly in the ward today.

He exhaled a long breath.

"Jonathan, I'm ready to give up. As you said, the old man can't hand over the Quantum Fund to me, and I don't want to wait any longer in vain."

"Robert, come to AU Fund, we will work together to make it a better hedge fund than Quantum Fund, proving that father's abandonment of us was the biggest mistake he made in his life!" Jonathan encouraged.

After taking a deep look at his brother.

"Thank you, Jonathan. But Mr. Dalio of Bridgewater Fund is ready to give me a chance, and I have promised him."

Now in the global hedge fund field.

Hanhua Pacific Fund is definitely the first without a doubt.

Especially after the victory in the duel with Quantum Fund this time, no one doubts its status anymore.

The second only to Pacific Fund is Bridgewater Fund.

It is the dream of countless fund managers around the world to be able to enter such a company.

"That's a pity."

"Although we can't work together, we can work together on investment." Robert smiled.

Jonathan nodded and asked curiously: "What conditions did Bridgewater Fund give you? Do you want to independently manage a fund?"

"Yes. They gave me 30 million US dollars."

"When you were at Quantum Fund, you had accumulated rich investment experience and could have mastered more funds." Jonathan said.

Robert shook his head.

"The achievements made at Quantum Fund do not belong to us in the eyes of others."

Jonathan understood what he meant.

Under the wings of Quantum Fund, no matter how great their achievements are, they will be considered to be guided by George Soros behind the scenes.

Now they need to prove themselves first.

"This condition is already very good. When some public fund managers switched to private equity, the amount of funds they controlled was not as much as mine.

And with Bridgewater's endorsement, it will be easier for me to attract investment when I become independent in the future."

The connections and resources obtained from large funds are far beyond those of small funds.

Even if he leaves Bridgewater in the future, this experience will already help him.

Jonathan nodded.

After taking a sip from the wine glass, "Have you ever considered going to Hanhua?"

Robert's face changed slightly, and he said calmly: "Jonathan, you know the grudge between the old man and Jin Caesar, and the dragon-slaying plan is known to the world.

If we have any contact with Hanhua, the old man will probably be really angry to death."

"Father only has interests in his eyes!"

Jonathan smiled.

"What conditions did Caesar Jin promise you?"

"If you or I go to Hanhua, each of us can be responsible for a $100 million hedge fund, 20% of the fund's income share, and unlimited investment rights for all funds under Hanhua.

If the two of us go together, then each of us can be responsible for a $200 million hedge fund, and other conditions remain unchanged."

Robert's eyes flashed.

"You agreed?"

"I'm still considering it."

Jonathan smiled, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Considering?

You're kidding.

If he goes to Hanhua, the old man will be furious, and he will never have the chance to inherit the property of the Quantum Fund and the Soros family.

When the time comes, he will squeeze out Alexander, and everything in the Soros family will be his, right?

"Haha, Hanhua's conditions are indeed excellent. I'll go back and think about it and then reply to you."

Jonathan took out a business card and handed it over.

"This is Caesar Jin's phone number. You can call and ask when the time comes, and then make a decision."

Robert looked at the gold-plated business card on the table, and a trace of inexplicable flashed in his eyes.

He took it and looked at it in his hand.

"Is this Caesar Jin's cell phone number?"

"No, it's just his secretary's phone number. I can't get Caesar Jin's personal cell phone."

After fiddling with it for a while, Robert put the card away.

Seeing this, Jonathan's eyes flashed with a hint of joy.

He raised his glass.

"Robert, let's toast to your future as a great hedge fund boss."

The former held up his wine glass with a smile on his face and a high-spirited manner.

“Cheers to the Beyond Quantum Fund.”

bite……

Amidst the light collision, the bright red wine was mixed with each other's conspiracy and drank.
