Chapter 491 Reversing Black and White Really Reversing Black and White
The night is breezy.
Xicheng Financial Street in Beijing is still as busy as daytime.
It probably never gets dark in this area.
Every day and night, countless elites type on keyboards, make phone calls, wave their fingers, and casually create transactions worth hundreds, thousands or even trillions of dollars in high-rise buildings.
Wealth seems 'insignificant' here.
Sometimes I accidentally become obsessed with the feeling of massive wealth flowing through my fingertips. Looking at the world, I suddenly feel that everything is just turning over and over again.
It's easy to overlook that wealth creation does not come from your fingertips, but from production.
It seems like every breath of air here is filled with the smell of money.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the south side of the decision-making center, Wen Liang looked out the window with a cup of warm tea. The night was only not far away, and even further away... it was covered by the tall buildings next door.
Inexplicably, Wen Liang suddenly sighed secretly: "They say that you can see far when you stand high. From IFC to Bolang Building and then here, the position where I stand is getting lower every time..."
"Up and down?"
Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on Wen Liang's face.
Sometimes the system pays attention to details and some are not.
Such as Xi Qi.
Over there, Wang Wanyu is well aware that this time her competitors have unlimited resources and allies to draw from, and she is taking the trouble to guide everyone's discussion in order to continue to deepen the team's integration and lead Duan Jiajing.
No one paid attention to Mr. Gao, the China executive of Goldman Sachs, who took the initiative to visit us not long ago.
"...It should be said that in any era, in any region, and in any race, there must be gossip among the things that people are best at."
“I heard that it’s a good thing that netizens have developed the three essential qualities of human beings: repeater, pigeon spirit, and great fragrance.”
"The repeater generally refers to blind obedience and following the trend. To put it more carefully, it contains emotional resonance. The financial secondary market in any region cannot avoid 'emotion' in nature."
"... Therefore, the West, which has expanded its financial market to such an open level to a certain extent, has conducted in-depth research on the creation of 'emotions' through public opinion..."
"Public opinion may be ignored, but there will always be people who care about it!"
"Guiding public opinion through partial information is the most popular method of financial sentiment in the world, and Goldman Sachs is the most famous player among them."
“Goldman Sachs analysts proposed the BRIC concept in 2001.”
"In 2006, analysts at Goldman Sachs launched the concept of 11 new diamond countries... They are extremely good at spreading analytical concepts around the world and guiding people to even actively embrace them."
"Everyone gets what he needs is just an appearance. When Goldman Sachs created and promoted these concepts, it had already opened its fishing net in advance to harvest local wealth..."
"In terms of heritage, historical accumulation, reputation, resources, talents, influence and many other dimensions, the gap between Bolang International Investment Bank and even Bolang Group and Goldman Sachs is as great as heaven and earth, and the goal of establishing Bolang International Investment Bank is to at least be as close as
Goldman Sachs is neck and neck.”
"It must be admitted that Goldman Sachs' team and energy are far superior to ours countless times. Therefore, in the narrow field competition with Goldman Sachs today, we need to learn from the foreigners and develop skills as quickly as possible to defeat them..."
During the discussion, Chen Keng, who like Zheng Qi was brought by Wang Wanyu to get to know Wen Liangxian, a returnee with a doctorate in computer science and mathematics, interrupted in his busy schedule: "The simulation system for integrating and confronting Goldman Sachs' past public opinion events has been initially completed.
You can take the time to try it.”
Then he quickly added: "The interface is relatively simple, and unknown bugs will be triggered in the initial stage. It has a built-in multi-layer neural network learning model. If the trial is feasible, the company's first version of the analysis and fitting model will be completed based on this. Please understand.
"
At this time, Wang Wanyu, who was leading the discussion, made a simple summary: "Issuing a bearish analysis and research report on Goldman Sachs stock about three and a half hours in advance is to try to arouse the sentiment of ordinary stock investors through online public opinion discussions, and it is also to leave Goldman Sachs time.
Sufficient time to respond and cooperate with Chen Keng’s simulation system will allow everyone to further adapt to future work priorities through practice.”
"..."
In fact, since the development of the information age, computers are used to assist work in almost every field.
The financial industry is no exception.
Moreover, the financial industry actually relies heavily on mathematical talent rather than economics alone.
To quote a line that Zheng Qi adapted from a movie called margincall: "Finance is just changing the way a bunch of numbers are calculated."
Of course... in fact, from a gentle perspective, he always felt that Zheng Qi was deeply 'misguided'.
So when we met this time, Wen Liang asked her to study.
Mathematical talent can be used in the financial industry, but it should not be used only in the financial industry.
Finance is indeed an important cornerstone of modern society, but finance cannot actually create value out of thin air. It should be called... a method of distribution.
However, the reality is often very, very regrettable.
With Bolang's current extreme desire and massive investment in basic research, as well as its infinite emphasis on talents, it is still unavoidable to recruit a lot of math and physicists to actively choose to work in group finance, accounting and other related positions.
For example, among the main members of the team brought by Wang Wanyu, apart from Zheng Qi, Chen Keng has a doctorate in computer science and mathematics, Qiao Jinyao has a master's degree in physics, Huang Cenyu and Zhang Qian both minored in physics at the undergraduate level, and have science degrees.
Bachelor's degree.
So much so, that when they are transferred to join the new subsidiary of Bolang International Investment Bank, the first thing they do is:
An adversarial simulation system was written based on some of the results of Bolang Lab on neural networks.
Because Bolang never considered developing investment banking business.
Even if it is an asset management company, the main thing it does is stable speculation.
Yes, sound speculation.
All that is required is to perform operations like buying and selling at the appropriate time according to the arrangement.
Asset management companies have almost never done risk finance business, let alone any investment banking business.
Don't ask, the question is that shorting Apple, Microsoft, Google and other companies is quite stable, the same is true for longing Apple, and holding Bitcoin is also a stable form of speculation.
Even before the end of October, Wen Liang knew that Goldman Sachs was the mastermind behind it, and had no intention of opening up investment banking business to compete with Goldman Sachs.
But later he changed his mind, and then... As expected, Lao Pingtou personally arranged this life for him.
Therefore, Bolang has no foundation in this area.
Being able to initially create a computer-aided tool in a few days is already very impressive.
And this is also necessary...
On the other hand, Wang Wanyu took the trouble to guide everyone and emphasized the importance of public opinion, which was not problematic and was very well-founded.
Not to mention the miscellaneous things at the moment.
Just talk about the surprising things in later generations.
Bibixi, Bibixi's netherworld filter, which confuses right and wrong, is all a means of public opinion.
How should I put it? Human beings like to use public opinion to stand on the moral high ground first, whether it is true or not, and then use it to gain benefits.
…………
After drinking half a cup of tea, Wen Liang returned to his seat, rubbed his hands, and returned his attention to his first small-scale confrontation with Goldman Sachs.
Theoretically, if there are no variables, the bearish report issued by Bolang International Investment Bank has already taken effect.
Countless financial elites around the world can see that under non-variable conditions, once the U.S. stock market opens, Goldman Sachs' stock will fall.
Even if Goldman Sachs' market value plummeted by US$12 billion when it faced SEC charges in 2010, there will be collateral consequences.
But, it's obviously just a theory.
Wen Liang even deliberately left time for Goldman Sachs to fully respond.
This research report can be released at any time. Anyway, Bolang International Investment Bank does not hold a short position from Goldman Sachs this time.
If the announcement were made after the U.S. stock market opens, with the communication energy that Bolang can use, Goldman Sachs would have no time to react, and panic selling by ordinary investors would occur immediately.
Several hours before today's official opening, I mainly wanted to see Goldman Sachs' methods head-on.
After all, previous confrontations with Goldman Sachs were separated by various groups.
CEO Gao's pretentious late-night visit also showed that Goldman Sachs would respond.
…………
…………
As early as the 3rd of the month, America has started winter saving time, and the time difference between Eastern Time and China Time is 13 hours.
9pm.
8 a.m. ET.
After many media outlets in the eastern United States had already made critical comments, Goldman Sachs finally made a preliminary response.
At first, I did not come forward, but released some news to confuse public opinion.
The main core point is the concept of secret exchange, which means that Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific's core business is in Hong Kong...
The relationship between Goldman Sachs and Alibaba is not close. Goldman Sachs is not even a shareholder of Alibaba...
These cannot be said to be better than nothing, they can only be said to be average.
The real response came from a well-known Goldman Sachs analyst who personally wrote a critical article.
The main idea is: "Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific's operations are all normal! Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific will not be affected by the failure of a single project, so there is no need to proactively disclose it!"
"We agree that Bolang Group is an excellent company with a leading position in the industry. It has grown to its current scale at an unprecedented speed and is the largest in the world. However, this does not mean that Bolang has the ability to carry out investment banking business or provide objective,
Professional analysis and research report.”
"Perhaps everyone doesn't know that the one that is feared in the international financial market is the asset management company co-founded by the co-founders of Bolang Group, hidden in the light of Bolang Group. Their bloody exploits in the financial market are well known to everyone!"
"Today, Bolang International Investment Bank has not invested even a penny to hold Goldman Sachs's short order. We have reason to believe that Bolang International Investment Bank is using this non-professional bearish report to suppress Goldman Sachs' stock price and buy it at a low price.
enter."
"They are just financial thieves with ulterior motives."
Judging from the content of the text, there are not many cited data, and the professional content is not high. However, even the Goldman Sachs report can be summarized into a very simple critical review, which is not surprising.
Of course, Goldman Sachs is actually better at packaging some unsurprising things in a complicated way, flipping back and forth with the left hand, right hand, and left hand, which is dizzying, and then grabs massive profits.
Like Greece, like the CDOs in the subprime mortgage crisis, this is the case.
The current time does not allow them to produce a report that is so complicated that ordinary people cannot understand it... and there is no need for it.
After all, this was just a very small-scale direct confrontation in Wen Liang's eyes.
After an analyst from Goldman Sachs resigned, public opinion became more emotional.
Wen Liang looked at the client of the public opinion monitoring system that had begun to adapt to global public opinion and optimized it to produce this result. He was slightly satisfied and asked: "Who wants to be the first named analyst of our Bolang International Investment Bank?
"
Qiao Jinyao, a master's degree student in physics, stood up and stated her position seriously but directly: "I think so."
"Okay." Wen Liang raised his head and glanced at the other party, "Goldman Sachs is better at confusing right and wrong. I hope the content you publish through social platforms will be more targeted."
Qiao Jinyao responded: "Understood."
Subsequently, Wen Liang sent several elements to Qiao Jinyao through the Bolang Group's internal communication tool, but did not emphasize that she must join.
Soon, Qiao Jinyao posted an update on Twitter with the full certified name of ‘Yao·[email protected]’.
Among them, Yao is the name, Analyst is the analyst, and BL-IIB is the English name of Bolang International Investment Bank.
"It seems that just like when Goldman Sachs created the concept of Vietnam in the Asia-Pacific market to deceive investors in order to reap individual benefits, it has once again concealed Goldman Sachs' current major failure in Asia-Pacific to deceive investors and fool the public."
Qiao Jinyao’s dynamics are very simple.
But it seems much sharper than the long-winded defense of Goldman Sachs analysts.
The core of current sharp reviews is actually to uncover history.
Obviously, if the dark history of Goldman Sachs were printed, it would not fit in the building without a nameplate at the Goldman Sachs headquarters.
Moreover, Chinese people are still very good at chewing words.
It's just that it's often used internally, not externally.
To be honest, it is quite easy to use externally.
Goldman Sachs analysts may have been anxious, and once again made a sharp comment: "The main problem facing Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific is geographical."
This made melon-eating netizens unable to stand it.
This is what a pure passerby Greek netizen said: "Yes, Goldman Sachs will always face regional problems, because these problems are initiated by Goldman Sachs!"
Monkey couldn't help but be a mere passerby for a while.
Because Goldman Sachs is really going too far.
Subsequently, a picture appeared on overseas social media platforms, showing CEO Gao walking into Bolang International Investment Bank.
The accompanying text is: "A managing director of Goldman Sachs spied on the internal information of Bolang International Investment Bank late at night."
Then, Yao posted another update: "According to the latest accounting, Goldman Sachs concealed that it faced indirect losses of at least US$23.5 billion in the Asia-Pacific region! There is news that Goldman Sachs concealed this key information to achieve some unknown purpose, or
It will have disastrous consequences for financial markets."
This time it’s not a critical review.
It is a simplified research report that lists data and conducts in-depth analysis.
Serious analyst job.
A key factor hidden in this simplified analysis report is that Goldman Sachs may have been involved behind the scenes in the administrative shutdown that occurred in America last month.
In addition to this implicit key factor, the report vaguely pointed out that Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific played some role in various recent events.
Clearly point out some of the products it promotes to customers and that these products have now entered a substantial risk stage.
In addition, I contacted Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific executives who were so anxious to enter Bolang International Investment Bank late at night.
Regarding the disgraceful role played by Goldman Sachs in the lingering aftermath of the Greek and CDO incidents, public opinion has enough reasons to believe that Goldman Sachs may have played a similarly disgraceful role in the Asia-Pacific this time.
The turmoil in public opinion caused by this is evident.
At the same time, Bolang International Investment Bank has also launched practical actions in addition to the war of words...
