Shi Zhijian took a panoramic view of his expression: "Mr. Soros is in charge of Quantum Fund and is invincible. The mayor should know this better than me! This time we are recruiting managers for Longteng Fund. Mr. Soros contacted me as soon as he heard the news. Life or death
You must take this position!”
"I saw that he was so sincere, so I nodded and agreed. However, the details still need to be investigated. For this reason, I came all the way from Hong Kong to the United States!" Shi Zhijian boasted that he was not on the tax track. "I am going to make a detailed investigation on Wall Street.
, see if there is a more suitable candidate than him, if not, choose him as the manager!"
"Gudong!" Mayor Henry swallowed. He is the mayor of New York, and he knows best who Soros is. Many rich people hope to hand over their money to Soros. Unfortunately, not everyone sees Soros.
Got it. This is a financial tycoon with great vision and super ability!
Now even Soros shamelessly wants to help Shi Zhijian take charge of Longteng Fund. You can imagine how good this fund is. Not to mention doubling in a year, it is possible to double!
Thinking of this, Mayor Henry's greed skyrocketed.
"Then I wonder how much your fund should be invested in?" Mayor Henry asked tentatively.
"At least-" Shi Zhijian raised a finger, "One million!"
"One million?" Mayor Henry felt that this threshold was a bit high, but when he thought about Longteng Fund and Soros, he felt that it was worth the money.
"If Mr. Shi doesn't mind, how about I invest one million?"
"One million?" Shi Zhijian smiled, "It's not too much but not too much, of course!"
"Thank you, Mr. Shi!" Mayor Henry smiled happily, "Then according to what Mr. Shi said, one year later..."
"Double it!"
"Haha, that's right, double it!" Mayor Henry rubbed his hands. One year, it will be two million by then! It's a huge profit!
…
When Mayor Henry and Shi Zhijian walked out of the VIP room, Mayor Henry couldn't hide the joy in his eyes. Situ Xiong and others were stunned. They didn't know what he said to Shi Zhijian inside to make him so happy.
"Then it's a deal! Mr. Shi, I'll take my leave now and see you tomorrow!" Mayor Henry shook hands with Shi Zhijian and said goodbye. The two negotiated and signed the contract tomorrow.
"Lord Mayor, let's go slowly!" Shi Zhijian said goodbye to Henry with a smile, "There is one more thing I want to explain -"
Shi Zhijian leaned over and whispered to Henry: "The investment must be kept secret. After all, the less people know about the plan to make a fortune, the better!"
Mayor Henry was stunned for a moment, and immediately made an "OK" gesture: "Understood! Don't worry about this! Haha, of course the matter of getting rich must be kept secret!"
Mayor Henry left the China Building.
When he got in the car, he was still feeling complacent.
The confidants nearby didn't understand why the mayor was so happy.
Henry didn't say anything. He originally came here to make money and wanted to invest in Shi Zhijian, but he turned around and invested in Shi Zhijian!
Although there is inevitably some regret in my heart, I am more happy!
Longteng Fund!
This is a fund that has never lost money!
Soros!
This is a super-famous financial speculator! With such a strong alliance, it’s hard not to develop! Hahaha!
After Mayor Henry left, the entire China Building immediately fell into silence.
All eyes were on the young man who came to New York from Hong Kong with an infinitely mysterious identity!
Countless glances contained various emotions, but they did not affect Shi Zhijian at all.
Shi Zhijian was calm and composed, and bowed his hands: "Everyone, I'm hungry. I wonder if I can sit down?"
Situ Xiong, Lin Bao and others woke up: "Of course! Please sit down quickly! The food and wine will be served quickly!"
The whole China Building became lively again. All those who looked down on Shi Zhijian before now held him up high and respected him like a god.
As the second-in-command of the Hongmen and the future first godfather of the Chinese people, Zheng Wentai looked at the scene in front of him and seemed to suddenly understand what "the moon is held by the stars" means!
"Maybe I should have a good relationship with this Mr. Shi!" Zheng Wentai was jealous but had to face reality.
…
The next day, what Shi Zhijian didn't expect was that Mayor Henry actually came over and made a phone call to arrange to meet Shi Zhijian at a private club in New York.
When Shi Zhijian arrived at the private club, the black security guard guarding the club asked him if he was a member of the club.
Shi Zhijian said directly: "Mayor Henry invited me here!"
The other party's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees, and he hurriedly invited Shi Zhijian in.
Shi Zhijian asked Yan Xiong and Ax Jun to stay outside to meet Mayor Henry alone.
I originally thought that Mayor Henry would invest in Longteng Fund alone this time, but what Shi Zhijian didn’t expect was that seven people entered the private room!
Except for Mayor Henry, Shi Zhijian did not know any of the others.
Seeing Shi Zhijian in a daze, Mayor Henry immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shi, you asked me to keep it a secret, but they are all my relatives and friends. As a traditional American, we have always upheld friendship and fraternity, and treated our relatives and friends more It’s about knowing how to share…”
The translation is, if you have money, everyone can make it!
Shi Zhijian really didn't expect that Mayor Henry would be so generous and call all his seven aunts and eight aunts over.
It seems that these people are all very rich, wearing famous brands, and full of fat heads.
This is indeed the case. Mayor Henry's family members also experienced great success after Henry became mayor. Some of them monopolized the construction industry, some monopolized the mining industry, and some directly took over the greening work of New York City. These are all lucrative businesses. , allowing them to make a lot of money.
Mayor Henry is a strict wife and can't stand the pillow wind. As soon as he got home last night, he couldn't help but happily told his wife about his plan to make a fortune, saying that he would invest three million in Longteng Fund and at least double it next year.
How could such a good wife forget about her family?
Ignoring Mayor Henry's warning, he called relatives and friends and exaggerated.
Overnight, all their relatives knew that Mayor Henry was going to make a fortune again. Investing in a fund could double the value in a year!
Then, these people stopped working. Why don't you call us when something good happens?
So a group was formed to find Shi Zhijian for investment.
Shi Zhijian really couldn't laugh or cry. He didn't see these people showing up when he was short of money before, but now that he's not short of money, they all appear.
After calculation, these people have raised approximately 10 million dollars in funds! The largest among them is Mayor Henry. This guy initially said he would invest 1 million US dollars, but now it has been directly upgraded to 3 million US dollars!
Shi Zhijian would not refuse those who offered money automatically, and of course, he would not accept the money so easily.
We still need to maintain a high profile and tell Mayor Henry and others that the Longteng Fund is not short of money now. The fewer people involved in making money, the better, so that the profits can be maximized.
Mayor Henry's relatives and friends were a little nervous at first, not knowing whether this investment was reliable.
Unexpectedly, Shi Zhijian was unwilling to accept their money, which surprised them. They felt that this investment was not only reliable, but also a rare opportunity, so they wanted to give the money away even more!
Shi Zhijian started the "open words" mode and told everyone: "The stock market is risky, so you need to be cautious when investing!"
It would have been fine if he didn't say it, but once he said it, he seemed even more unwilling to accept everyone's money.
In desperation, Mayor Henry had no choice but to use a pleading tone to ask Shi Zhijian to accept the money, saying that they believed in Shi Zhijian and the Longteng Fund, not to mention that this fund had an excellent trader like Soros to help control it. It can be said that they had no control over the Longteng Fund.
Full of confidence!
So confident!
Of course Shi Zhijian knew that most of these people came for the old fox "Soros".
Although Longteng Fund is awesome, it is only in the Asian financial market. In the United States, people are more aware of the Quantum Fund controlled by Soros.
…
"Quantum" comes from the Latin "quantus", which means "how much" and represents "a considerable amount of something". In the 1920s, the famous German physicist Heisenberg founded quantum mechanics, a huge breakthrough in the world of physics.
Changes ushered in a new era of physics in the 20th century.
More than 60 years later, George Soros introduced the "Uncertainty Theorem", a major achievement of quantum physics in the 20th century, into hedge funds. Soros believed that just as the physical quanta of particles cannot have a definite value, the securities market also often
In a state of uncertainty, it is difficult to accurately measure and estimate. The collision of cross-disciplinary ideas has created a hedge fund with a higher risk factor - Quantum Fund.
The predecessor of Quantum Fund was Double Eagle Fund, which was founded by George Soros and Jim Rogers in 1969 with a capital of US$4 million. Soros admired Heisenberg's "Uncertainty Theorem" very much, so he changed its name in 1972
Quantum Fund has a capital of approximately US$30 million.
The renamed Quantum Fund is located in New York. The investors of the fund are mainly non-U.S. foreign investors, thus avoiding the supervision of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Quantum Fund mainly invests in commodities, foreign exchange, stocks and bonds, and uses financial derivatives extensively.
Products and leveraged financing, engaged in a full range of international financial operations.
With his extraordinary analytical skills and courage, Soros guided the Quantum Fund to gradually grow and expand amidst the ups and downs of the world's financial markets. By the 1990s, the scale of the Quantum Fund increased to US$6 billion.
Quantum Fund plays an important role in the international financial market because the fund can obtain an investment effect equivalent to tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of funds through leverage financing and other means when needed.
In the 1990s, Soros relied on the fund's strong financial resources to launch attacks on currencies with weak foundations, including the British pound crisis and the Italian lira crisis in the early 1990s, the Mexican financial crisis in 1994, and the Asian baht shock in 1997.
During the financial crisis, Quantum Fund acted aggressively in these financial turmoils and succeeded repeatedly.
Soros made a lot of money with his superb short-selling skills. After less than 30 years of operation, at the end of 1997, the Quantum Fund had increased in value to a giant fund with a total asset value of nearly US$6 billion. In the past 31 and a half years of history,
The average annual return rate of Quantum Fund is as high as more than 30%, reaching the peak of glory.
After 1998, Quantum Fund began to encounter "Waterloo": First, Soros's misjudgment of the Russian debt crisis in 1998 and the trend of the Japanese yen exchange rate caused Quantum Fund to suffer heavy losses.
Investments in Internet stocks in the U.S. stock market also fell sharply. So far, Soros's Quantum Fund has lost a total of nearly 5 billion U.S. dollars, and its vitality has been severely damaged.
On April 28, 2000, Soros had to announce the closure of the "Quantum Fund". The world-famous hedge fund, Quantum Fund, came to an end.
However, in this era, with the rise of quantum funds, not only the entire Wall Street is flocking to Soros, a genius, but also major financial markets around the world are silent about him.
Mayor Henry and others may not understand Longteng Fund, but they know Soros, they know Quantum Fund, and they know that as long as Soros participates in the investment, they will definitely win!
Faced with such "sincere" investment from Henry and others, Shi Zhijian finally accepted their $10 million.
For Shi Zhijian, this investment is a small matter and it doesn’t matter whether it’s money or not. What’s important is the relationship!
Through such investment, Shi Zhijian established an unbreakable relationship of interest with American political figures such as Henry. As long as this relationship exists, it will always pay off!
Of course, before that, Shi Zhijian must solve one thing, that is, to really deal with Soros and let this old Wall Street fox work for him and use it for himself!
…
The time Yan Xiong arranged for Shi Zhijian to meet with Soros is three days later, that is, tomorrow.
Shi Zhijian made a lot of preparations for this, because he knew that this old fox would not be easy to deal with, and it might take a lot of effort to take him under his wing.
Sure enough, when Shi Zhijian called Wall Street, Soros's female secretary directly said that Soros was too busy and changed the meeting time from 8 a.m. to noon.
At noon, Shi Zhijian called again. The female secretary there again said that Mr. Soros was discussing investment matters with several investors, so the meeting time with Shi Zhijian was changed from noon to three o'clock in the afternoon.
I finally stayed up until three o'clock in the afternoon. This time, before Shi Zhijian could call, the female secretary named Alice called directly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shi? Because Mr. Soros is too busy, he and you
My appointment has been rescheduled for tomorrow!”
Shi Zhijian smiled.
Since coming to the United States, he has never received such "treatment".
Next to him, Yan Xiong felt terrified. He knew that every time Shi Zhijian laughed like this, something big would happen.
"I'm sorry, boss, it's my fault! I didn't arrange things well for you, that Soros——"
Before Yan Xiong could finish speaking, Shi Zhijian made a gesture to stop him from continuing, took out a cigarette from the table, took one out and bit his mouth, then said with a smile: "Since this Soros is so hard to see,
Well, let’s change the method and let him come to see me!”
