"Master Xi, haha, don't worry, if conditions permit, we will definitely come back to Xiangjiang."

"Minister Gong, have you seen the news? Congratulations to Gaosheng, congratulations to Gaosheng. When will we be able to drink the wedding wine between your daughter and our father? No, I asked for Mr. Xu..."

"Hey, Xu Lei! The closing price is too exaggerated? Don't be too surprised. Feigou.com is about the same. As long as we continue to work steadily, what? I was selected as one of the 25 most influential business leaders in the country?"

"Gates? Haha, you bought 1.03%, don't sell it, wait until you get rich, ah, yes, yes, we have a celebration party tonight, no problem, I will ask someone to prepare an invitation letter for you, you still have friends who want it

Come here together, how many of you? It’s okay, I can handle it all, leave it to me, by the way, Wall Street parties are more fun.”

The calls came one after another, and Lu Fei couldn't handle it anymore. He walked out of the exchange quickly, followed closely by Lu Huateng, Zeng Liqing and others, and a group of people poured out.

With a look from Wang Ben, the bodyguard, who was also the driver, parked the bulletproof commercial vehicle firmly on the roadside. Just as he was about to get out of the car, Ivanka beat him to it, just like a secretary opening a car door for her boss.

"Roger, wait until I come to Los Angeles to find an opportunity to chat together. Don't worry, there will always be a place for you in Spotify."

Lu Fei put down his phone and looked sideways.

"Can I go with you?"

Ivanka flipped up her blond hair and stared longingly.

"You?" Lu Fei raised his eyebrows.

Ivanka raised her chest generously and showed her graceful figure, "There will be many celebrities and tycoons attending such a grand event. You may need a female companion who knows the rules, which may come in handy."

"That's fine."

Lu Fei glanced up and down, but did not refuse. He made a gesture of invitation like a gentleman. Ladies first, he let Ivanka hold his hand and get into the car, and then he got into the car.

The celebration banquet was set at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, a landmark hotel in Manhattan that can be called the focus of New York. In the splendid and towering lobby, the floor was inlaid with marble, and the white columns were as thick as three people hugging each other.

"Wow wow wow..."

Ivanka just entered the banquet hall and smiled awkwardly but politely.

"how?"

Lu Fei followed her gaze and saw the wolf men and wolf women on Wall Street having fun. They couldn't tell whether they were traders or investment managers. They were kissing each other, live broadcast.

Wall Street elites in suits and ties gathered nearby to watch, hugging each other and laughing wildly.

"Look, over there!"

Ivanka pointed to another circle of the party. They were jumping up and down, obviously not drinking, but they were crazy and exaggerated, shouting loudly the slogan of the organization's code of conduct, regardless of the occasion and status, regardless of the occasion and status, they were dissolute.

No different than a wild beast.

"This group of guys are like this. They behave like dogs in normal times, but they have a lot of fun in private."

Lu Fei took it for granted and shouted "Peter Sill" loudly. His master Moritz was a legendary partner of Sequoia, and he himself was also a vice president with the potential to become a partner.

Petersill coughed a few times, and the guys finally calmed down a bit, moved the battlefield, and then threw two mints into their mouths to cover up the smell of leaves in their mouths.

"Hey, Wall Street legend!" He greeted enthusiastically, but when he saw Ivanka, a fair-skinned and beautiful blonde girl, his eyes straightened, "Lu, this lady is yours..."

Ivanka nodded politely and said: "Female companion."

"Wuhu~"

The two looked at each other and laughed tacitly.

Lu Fei raised his lips: "Have you been promoted? The Penguin case is not enough for you to be promoted to partner?"

"A little bit, it's like 99.9%."

Peter Seale shrugged, "I originally thought that Facebook you recommended to me could help me complete this fucking 0.01%, but there seems to be something wrong with Zuckerberg?"

"oh?"

Lu Fei couldn't help but be curious.

"The founders of Facebook are breaking up. Zuckerberg wants Saverin to be kicked out, but he is the co-founder after all, and it is not easy to kick him out." Peter Siler asked strangely, "He didn't ask you for advice? You

But the third largest shareholder!"

"I will find a time to have a good talk with them."

Lu Fei touched his chin, his eyes twinkling.

After a while, distinguished guests from the New York celebrity circle and Wall Street began to arrive one after another. At this time, three white men, surrounded by many stock brokers, came over. The leader was very impressive, and he looked like a big boss in the financial circle.

"Black Stone, Schwarzman."

Petersill reminded in a low voice, Lu Fei smiled and shook hands with him.

As for the two people next to him, one was a relatively unknown young man with an unfamiliar face, while the other had a big background and was the infamous Wolf King of Wall Street - Carl Icahn.

"You shouldn't be here, no one likes them here."

Peter Sil pouted.

"It's not illegal to attend a party."

Carl Icahn smiled and said: "Besides, I'm just here to have fun with an old friend, and take a look at China Land, which detonated Wall Street and allowed Buffett to make an exception to buy technology stocks! That's you, right?"

Ivanka watched Lu Fei chatting happily with them, and let out a sigh of relief. Carl Icahn had blood on his hands. What the old man liked most was to raid companies, buy huge amounts of shares in the company he liked, and then secure his position as a strategic shareholder.

Start forcing the company to make changes, allowing the stock price to rise rapidly in a short period of time before selling out.

Unlike Buffett, who relies on corporate growth and added value to make profits.

Carl Icahn said: "Lu, you made a very wise decision by announcing that one of your online games will be free before going public to avoid fluctuations in the stock price. However, it will be inevitable for Penguin to launch free games in the future.

"

Lu Fei shook the red wine and said, "You are referring to "Miracle", right? According to the financial report we published, free of charge does not affect the company's profits, but instead increases the turnover."

“Can free-to-play games make more money?”

Carl Icahn spoke out on behalf of Wall Street capital and bluntly stated that he was not optimistic about the profit model of free games.

There is no successful precedent in the United States. It is more like a gimmick, and gimmicks often do not have long-term vitality.

"Time will tell everything, and Penguin's game business not only has a free profit model, but also has a stand-alone model. We have reached a cooperation with Microsoft."

Lu Fei narrowed his eyes, knowing that this guy was here to cause trouble, to declare war? Or to deliberately provoke people?

The tree is as beautiful as the forest, but the wind will destroy it. Penguin was sniped during the silent period, and now it has just been listed and is being targeted by the big short sellers?

There are bad people on Wall Street!

Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, and Merrill Lynch are all watching.

"Wow, Microsoft!!"

For a moment, the entire audience erupted in exclamations. This was really good news. If word spread, the stock price would break through the $160 mark tomorrow.

“Our analysts have been long-term bullish on Penguin, with either a ‘buy’ or a ‘strong buy’ recommendation.

Schwarzman showed a friendly smile and introduced the young man traveling with him to Lu Fei, "His name is Jonathan Gray."

"I understand, he is your disciple."

Lu Fei shook hands with him.

Jonathan Gray is in charge of Blackstone's real estate business, which uses derivatives such as CDO and CDS to operate. Under the booing of everyone, he talked eloquently about "subprime mortgages."

"Subprime mortgages" is one of the hottest topics on Wall Street, and it has quickly attracted more and more audiences, both inside and outside.

John Paulson stood on the periphery. Through the gap in the crowd, he saw Lu Fei holding a wine glass without saying a word. He mustered up the courage to ask:

"But subprime loans are risky. If they default..."

"Sir, don't worry too much. In a subprime mortgage bond structure, there are about 25% mezzanine bonds and subordinate bonds under the AAA bonds. These bonds will suffer losses first. This is a completely safe enough buffer."

Jonathan Gray was complacent: "Is it possible to exceed this 25% loss unless half of the owners default, or housing prices fall by half, or the war in Iraq returns to the homeland?"

"Hahaha~"

Suddenly, the air was filled with joy.

"Lehman Brothers has relied on subordinated bonds to earn at least 30% more this year than last year."

"Many bonds that no longer meet the needs of loan collection companies are packaged into mortgage bonds. As far as I know, Bear Stearns and HSBC have specially established and acquired several loan companies. UBS, Citigroup, and Morgan Stanley are all doing this.

.”

"..."

"Since it is so safe, why not turn P2P into bonds and insert them into the subprime mortgage bond structure?"

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded again.

Lu Fei immediately cast his gaze and looked left and right.

“Wall Street already has a business like this!”

Jonathan Gray said: "More than 20 lending companies have established P2P websites, and more than 30 Wall Street companies, large and small, have also packaged P2P bonds, with a scale of more than 10 billion US dollars."

"Pfft~"

The corner of Lu Fei's mouth turned up crazily. The P2P bond trick was the same as Lu Yun's Huabei routine. It was indeed America, self-taught and innovative in finance. But why was it only 10 billion?

Such a thunderstorm is not something that Chinese people should look down upon!

Add at least one "0" and it will take 100 billion to deliver the goods!

"Lu, why are you laughing?" Peter Sil said.

"Oh, I think of happy things."

Lu Fei moved his eyes and finally found the figure of John Paulson. He stretched out his hand and asked, "Who is he?"

"You'd better not touch him"

Peter Sil looked at it and easily told the story.

A junior on Wall Street manages the $1 billion Paulson hedge fund, but its performance is so-so.

"What's up with him?"
