700 There is not much time left for you (4k)(1/2)
Bang!
The cup hit the door and shattered on the floor.
Liang Luoshi outside the door was startled and looked back towards the study.
Since New Year's Day, Li Zekai has locked himself in. At first he was smiling and kept saying, "I'm sure Lu Fei is a street kid." But it soon took a turn for the worse.
His smile disappeared and his temper became worse.
I stayed in the study all day long, facing the computer, either drinking heavily or scolding my mother. The one I scolded the most was——
Damn it, Lu Fei!
Li Zekai stared at the screen while the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg and other media took turns reporting on Lu Fei's net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars, which was beyond ordinary people's understanding, and made various calculations.
His net worth may exceed 1 trillion RMB.
What is this concept?
China's GDP in 2009 was 85 trillion RMB.
Lu Fei alone accounts for almost one-thirty-fifth!
Look at yourself again, see Penguin being collectively shorted by Wall Streeters, gloating about taking 100 million US dollars to join the short-selling army, never would you have thought that the clown is actually himself!
Instead of beating Lu Fei violently, he was beaten violently by Chives.
His damn desire to win and revenge made him unwilling to close his position and admit defeat. He pledged Xiangjiang Telecom's equity, added margin, paid interest on the securities, and increased the stakes step by step, up to US$400 million.
Coupled with leverage, the rate of return is already negative 540%!
I was originally able to be debt-free in 2013, but now I’m afraid I won’t be able to get back on my feet for another four to five years!
"Impossible! How is it possible!"
Li Zekai picked up the whiskey and blew into the bottle. No one can fall twice in the same river, but he fell into the penguin again!
As soon as I thought about this, I realized that it was time to make a decision.
Closing the position means losing all your money and being heavily in debt. Maybe the mahogany mansion will be taken away to pay off the debt. It will also drag down Xiangjiang Telecom's stock price and cause the value of the pledged stocks to plummet.
That is, a vicious cycle.
When gambling to this extent, it is better to fight for a chance of survival!
If you hold on firmly, there will be a solution!
Therefore, Li Zekai called his think tank team to collect as much bad news as possible that was not beneficial to Penguin.
Just at this moment, Penguin officially announced to the world:
On the first day of the limited skin event launched by "League of Legends" on the 13th, the sales of 5 skins reached 16.92 million U.S. dollars. Together with the cumulative sales of S1 championship skins, the revenue reached an astonishing 25.83 million U.S. dollars.
knife.
As if it accounted for one-third of the annual revenue of "World of Warcraft" at its peak, Wall Street's short-sellers' remarks about the revenue and profitability of "League of Legends" immediately became untenable.
"Why do so many people spend money on this game?"
"Why! Isn't it a free game?"
Li Zekai panicked, completely panicked. This was a huge benefit. When the market opens next Monday, Penguin’s stock price will skyrocket again.
Close the position! Must close the position!
Considering that the handling fee was insufficient, I thought over and over again and called Li Zeju to borrow money. He did not borrow the money directly: "Boss, my dad is at home? I want to take the children to pay him New Year's greetings."
"Okay, you finally figured it out, little guy!"
On the phone, Li Zeju was full of surprises.
Li Zekai asked if his father had been at home these days. The conversation changed and he mentioned borrowing money. He only mentioned the amount but not the use.
"Brother, you're not going to be a short penguin, are you?"
Li Zeju showed an imperceptible evil smile.
The computer in front of him also displayed various Penguin news. The intensity of the long-short battle had overshadowed the debt crisis, and it was almost the focus of global attention.
In order to make Penguin's stock price fall, short sellers took advantage of the truce over the weekend and struggled desperately to find a breakthrough.
Goldman Sachs and other giants are urging the SEC to uphold justice, but civil servants do not work on weekends, not to mention that all employees have been working overtime continuously for this matter. It is impossible to work overtime, and absolutely not.
The SEC obviously can’t count on it!
After all, from collecting evidence to filing an investigation, that is after the market opens on Monday, and grass may grow on the graves of short sellers.
The SEC can't count on it, let alone other regulatory authorities. It has an ambiguous attitude. It looks like it's helping the short sellers, but it also seems like it's helping the long sellers and dragging down the short sellers. It gives a glimmer of hope and continues to fish for short positions. Don't close the position or continue to increase the position.
.
As a last resort, the short sellers could only send Goldman Sachs, who had a "good relationship" with Mr. Lu, to give Lu Fei a chance for peace talks.
Lu Fei directly refused to accept the call. He was very busy, busy with how to spread the money he gained from short selling. His first target was Nvidia. At this time, the stock price reached a historical low.
By the way, we also hired a lot of people from NVIDIA and AMD, invested in expanding the GPU team, and laid out the mining trend and Bitcoin.
We can't let Nvidia, AMD, Colorful and other graphics card manufacturers make a lot of money, and there is no logic at all?
The mining boom is an excellent opportunity to develop graphics cards!
After discussing with Su Zifeng and others about the strategic planning in CPU, GPU, FPGA and AI, Lu Fei dragged his exhausted body and flew to Hantang North America Branch in Los Angeles.
"What are you looking at?"
The office door was locked. Ivanka knelt on her knees, swallowed the red wine, raised her head, and looked up at him.
"I'm thinking about how many fund managers will jump off the building when the market opens tomorrow. It would be great to jump from this height."
Lu Fei touched his chin.
"Uncle Carl asked me to remind you to close when the tide is good. Penguin's stock cannot be pushed up by retail investors forever. Sooner or later it will fall back. So many short sellers are not leaving the market now because they are betting that next week will be the beginning of the ebb." Ivan
Kaza blinked his eyes.
“So Icahn is going to short Penguin next week?”
Lu Fei held her head and pressed it down.
"I, I don't know..."
Ivanka looked at him aggrievedly, "Why do you look so excited? Aren't you afraid of Uncle Carl shorting Penguin?"
"Afraid? I'm afraid he won't bet against Penguin!"
"Will the penguin continue to rise? Why?"
"As far as the IQ inherited from your family's genes, you don't even understand it."
"That's why I need you to improve it."
Ivanka put her hands behind her back and wore a silver bracelet.
"Let's talk about what you know."
Lu Fei took a breath and said, "I read the script of "Pacific Rim" and it doesn't work. I have to change it again."
Ivanka said vaguely: "How do you want to change it?"
"The story background and setting of "Pacific Rim" are too complicated. It has to take into account both literary and martial arts. It is impossible to explain it clearly in one movie, especially the origins of the giant beasts. I think we can learn from the setting of Godzilla.
.”
"Godzilla?"
"Yes, Godzilla is set to be a creature from ancient times. It was resurrected because of the increase in nuclear radiation on the surface due to nuclear testing. Then the same reason can be used for the giant beasts to wake up, even mutate, destroy cities, and humans unite,
Robots were developed, and finally the collective wisdom and efforts of mankind defeated the giant beast."
Lu Fei smacked his lips, "What do you think?"
Ivanka nodded in agreement: "If the box office goes well, the next series can be linked with Godzilla, but American audiences are probably tired of mecha movies like "Pacific Rim" and there may be nothing new.
feel……"
"The main market is not only the West, but also the East. Do you know how much the box office of "Avatar" was in China?"
"About $500 million."
"If a Chinese-foreign co-production like "Pacific Rim" is well made, it may earn US$100 million or even US$500 million."
"But Guo Fan will be the director and Wu Jing will be the male protagonist. Should we think about it again?" Ivanka suggested, "We don't have to change the director, but would it be better to change the lead actor to Jack Cheng?"
Lu Fei had a straight face and was condescending, "Jack Cheng is too old. China needs more independent movie stars. Moreover, he is an artist from the Han and Tang Dynasties. Is there any problem?"
"What problem can I have? Anyway, you are not interested in money. You don't care too much whether you make money or lose money." Ivanka said with admiration in her eyes, "Do you think it's too late for me to be long Penguin now?"
"The water here is very deep. If you can't control it, a wave will drown you." Lu Fei smiled coldly.
"I can't control the penguin, but I can control you. Today is Sunday, don't leave, okay? Go to the hotel, and I will continue to report the company's new year plan to you."
Ivanka's eyes were full of earnestness.
Lu Fei nodded, made a phone call, and temporarily changed tonight's itinerary. Tomorrow's schedule will remain the same, so he can still fly to Xiangjiang.
To be continued...
