Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Xiangjiang Investment invested 3 billion U.S. dollars to short 20,000 lots of international crude oil, which seems a lot, but the average daily trading volume of NYMEX light sweet crude oil (WTI) futures contracts in 2018 reached 1.5 million lots. In 2008, it was about 1 million lots, so in the future, it will be said that Zhang Yiwen is a big short of crude oil, mainly the media that collects money to do things.

Oh, no, it is impossible for the media to know that Zhang Yiwen is trading at this time, but there is news that Xiangjiang has a big short that dares to short international crude oil. In the future, there will be no clear news that Zhang Yiwen did this, after all, it must be kept secret!

The average opening price of Xiangjiang Investment is about 140 US dollars. Because 10 times leverage is used, the actual investment is about 300 million US dollars. The oil price fluctuates by 1 US dollar, and the profit and loss fluctuates by 20 million US dollars.

Xiangjiang invested 500 million U.S. dollars in principal, and the oil price will rise to 165 before the position will be liquidated. Coupled with Huatou's 1 billion yuan, unless the international oil price rises to 215 US dollars. Therefore, compared with before, the risk of Xiangjiang Investment is already very low this time.

Commodity prices plummeted, and global stock markets were also sluggish. BYD's stock price fell to around HK$8. Qu Li was moved, thinking that he could increase his holdings by 50 million shares, so he asked the Vision Fund to buy it in the open market. It is a pity that the market turnover is sluggish, and the daily turnover is only 20 to 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Out of jealousy and not wanting to lose to Buffett, Qu Li offered a purchase price of less than HK$8, but unfortunately not many people were willing to sell it, so just wait.

When he came to the United States this time, Qu Li met with the CEO and CEO of Spreadtrum, and discussed the future development, as well as the investment of the Vision Fund; met with Google executives and Andy Rubin, the head of Android; A pure electric sports car needs to meet the design requirements of the power battery; invest in Twitter and take a stake in Riot Games; inspect Shopee; and go to Facebook to meet Zuckerberg, which is almost the same.

What are you talking about with Zuckerberg? Of course, it is to make some efforts for the external publicity of the Beijing Olympics. The international public opinion environment is very bad. He wants Zuckerberg to share more "good news about the Olympics" with global users. As for YouTube, the founder team is losing control of the video site, and what Qu Li can do is very limited.

After Microsoft, Li Ka-shing and others invested US$375 million in Facebook, Qu Li’s shareholding ratio has fallen below 1%, and the cooperation between Shopee and Facebook is a net profit.

"I think the subprime mortgage crisis will bring huge changes to the financing market. It is necessary for Facebook to conduct a financing in the shortest possible time to deal with possible..." Berger is not convinced:

"We have a professional team, and the CFO has rich financing experience..."

"Well, Facebook is Shopee's most important partner, please let me know if there is any need..."

"No problem!" Zuckerberg said nicely.

Seeing this, Qu Li knew that he didn't believe him, so he didn't persuade him. Anyway, his goal had already been achieved, so it didn't matter.

Flying from the United States to Beijin, "Red Cliff" has landed in major theaters in China. The two soundtracks that Qu Li participated in are the first to come out of the circle. notice.

Director Chen's "Red Cliff" is not like Wu Baige, there are not too many modern romances. The purpose of the war is for great unification and peace in the world. It's just that Cao Cao likes to "immigrate", causing the bones of the Central Plains to be exposed in the wild, and there are no chickens crowing for thousands of miles. Liu Bei wanted to revive the Han Dynasty, while Sun Quan did it for personal gain and did not want to lose life, freedom, rights and wealth.

The one with the strongest personal ability is Cao Cao, the one with the most charismatic personality is Liu Bei, and Sun Quan is regarded as the master of success. In the interpretation of Director Chen’s film, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry fought against the invasion of nomadic peoples, Cao Cao discussed the southern expedition, Longzhong confronted, Xu Shu and Zhuge Liang appeared successively, Jingzhou Mu surrendered, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry blitzed Liu Bei’s troops, and then Cao Cao sent envoys to surrender to Sun Quan , Zhuge Liang's envoy to Soochow ended.

The movie is mainly based on "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", with some director's ideas added, but hidden in the fast pace, it was noticed by the second-time and third-time audiences.

That's right, "Red Cliff" grossed 150 million at the box office four days a week after it was released. Not to mention the rave reviews, Douban's score of 7.5 is considered an excellent commercial blockbuster. The box office was 120 million in 7 days in the second week, and 270 million in two weeks. Countless people hope that "Red Cliff" will break the domestic box office record of 360 million set by "Titanic" ten years ago.

It was against this background that Qu Li returned to Beijin on July 20, and was quickly arranged for an interview. The other actors ran for two weeks on the road show and were exhausted. Han Sanpin urged Qu Li on the phone several times, " The box office record of "Titanic" is a disgrace to domestic filmmakers, and few people don't care.

Even the director of the Olympic Opening Ceremony, Zhang Guoshi, took the time to watch "Red Cliff", and then praised this movie. Of course, there are many negative voices, but Director Chen has a good relationship in the circle, not to mention that he can reverse black and white like Wang Sunglasses , can confuse the aesthetics of actors and audiences, or at least keep negative comments from being posted for the time being.

When the reporter interviewed Qu Li, he naturally asked about the composition of the two soundtracks, and Qu Li would not be shy about bragging.

"I have taken the time to learn to compose music in the past few years. I have some inspirations and fragments, but they are not systematic. After cooperating with Mr. **..."

"What did you sing? I don't know. I originally wanted to add some meaningless humming. Later, someone suggested singing love songs in ancient Chinese..."

""nijamena" was originally a love song that bravely broke through the feudal ethics..."

""Victory" has nothing to do with me, only the soprano was suggested by me."

Around "Red Cliff", the reporter asked Qu Li many questions.

"I won't be involved in film production for a short time..."

"How long is the short time?" The reporter asked

"After the company went bankrupt, or after I resigned from the company..."

This reporter just remembered that Qu Li is the boss of a listed company. He has a lot of money and at the same time has his own career and pursuit.

After Chibi, there is no more Quli! Some media actually used such an outrageous headline, which almost made him cry. Can you be a little bit more moral, is it plausible, is it a curse?

Maybe Qu Li really has a fan base. His Sha Matt business has become popular all over the country and has become the standard for delinquent teenagers born in the 90s in the urban-rural fringe. One step should be banned.

After the interview, Qu Li returned to Glory and received a very unexpected news that Motorola Tower was looking for a buyer and they were about to sell it.

"They shouldn't sell it to Glory, right?"

"Of course, but don't you have money? You can find a way to buy it and then sublease it to us. This kind of advertising effect is sensational. How much less advertising fee can you save?" Zhou Shaoning said with certainty, so reasonable!

"How much is it?" Qu Li was worried that it would be too expensive. The total construction area of ​​Motorola Building is 33,745 square meters.

"I don't know." Zhou Shaoning

Without Qu Li, Singapore's Mapletree Group acquired Motorola Tower for 914 million yuan a few months later. To say that housing prices can rise tenfold, the rise in prices of these commercial office buildings is not so outrageous. For example, the Ark Building, which covers an area of ​​22,700 square meters and a construction area of ​​19,700 square meters, was purchased by Mapletree Group for 420 million yuan in 2014 and sold for 750 million yuan in early 2020.

I asked about the funding situation of the Vision Fund, no problem, then buy it.
