Shinnick Hills Golf Club is located on Long Island in Southampton, New York, USA. It was founded in 1892. It is the first seaside course in the United States and the oldest officially established golf club in the United States.
The Shinnick Hills Golf Club course is built in the famous links style. It was first designed by Stanford Whitt and later redesigned by William Flynn in 1931. It is the best course in the United States selected by Golf Magazine
One of the top ten best courses.
"Good shot! What a good shot!"
“It’s really great!”
In the golf course, everyone let out a burst of exclamations!
Rockefeller, who made an extraordinary swing, looked at the green area in front of him with a smile.
Today, Rockefeller is wearing a white polo shirt and pure cotton trousers with straight lines, and a golf glove on his left hand. He hit the ball casually just now. The small golf ball was hit and rolled towards the hole along the slope of the turf. One shot
Enter the hole.
It is not easy to hit a beautiful ball on such a venue, not to mention it is even rarer to score a hole-in-one like this!
Next to him, Shi Zhijian, New York Mayor Henry Wilder, and Police Commissioner Grant acted as temporary "fans" and applauded vigorously. Even the caddies and waiters couldn't help but applaud.
"This shot is purely a stroke of genius, maybe God's will!" After Rockefeller saw the ball go into the hole, he turned around and said excitedly to Shi Zhijian, Henry and Grant beside him.
It's just that this time Rockefeller spoke in Chinese, and except for Shi Zhijian, the other two people couldn't understand it at all - they looked at me and I looked at you, looking confused, especially the four-character idiom "a stroke of genius", they didn't even understand what it meant.
mean.
Shi Zhijian once again praised Rockefeller's tireless spirit of learning Chinese and his excellent quality of not forgetting to show off Chinese idioms from time to time. He applauded: "There may be a stroke of genius, but this beautiful shot still depends on your basic skills, Mr. Locke!"
Only solid basic skills can create such a miracle!"
Shi Zhijian said these words in English.
Mayor Henry and Director Grant understood this time. It turned out that Mr. Shi was trying to flatter Mr. Locke. How could they, as activists, fall behind in such a good thing?!
Mayor Henry was the first to say: "Yes, Mr. Shi is right! In addition to luck, the most important thing about golf is good kung fu! Masters like you, Mr. Locke, can definitely participate in the National
Open!"
Director Grant was not to be outdone. "Not only is it the National Golf Open, but it is also a global competition. Mr. Locke is also qualified to participate, and he is a top three candidate!"
The reason why Mayor Henry and Director Grant boasted about Rockefeller was because of his huge background.
In fact, when Shi Zhijian called them today and told them to accompany Mr. Rockefeller to play ball, their jaws dropped and they wondered if they had heard wrong.
Rockefeller, the super rich man in the United States and the leader of the first family, wants to accompany him to play golf? If this news gets out, won’t it shock the entire gossip world?!
You know, Rockefeller seldom communicates with others now. Even if he communicates with foreign countries, he is only at the level of governor or above. Where can he get the turn of the two of them?
Soon, they figured out that this was Shi Zhijian selling favors to them. Shi Zhijian must have spoken well of them in front of Rockefeller, so they were invited.
Yes, they helped Shi Zhijian a lot last time, and Shi Zhijian's doing so can be regarded as a relationship.
After understanding this, Henry and Grant immediately felt that they had done nothing wrong before. Look, isn't the reward coming?!
In order to accompany him to play golf this time, Mayor Henry made complete preparations. Not only did he trim his beard, buy a golf shirt, but also sprayed the newly purchased perfume on him, which was more grand than going on a date with a woman.
Director Grant did not hesitate to give in. Not only did he take a bath, shave his armpit hair, he also trimmed his nails and picked his teeth... He showed all-round respect for accompanying him to play ball this time!
For Shi Zhijian, it was indeed him who helped pull the strings to invite them to play with Rockefeller, and Rockefeller agreed.
After Rockefeller made a perfect shot, he handed the club to the caddy, took off his gloves, left the staff to repair the lawn, and walked back to the sun umbrella next to a few people with a little excitement.
Shi Zhijian took out a brown cigar from a cherry wood cigar box on the low table, skillfully cut off the cap and handed it to Rockefeller.
Rockefeller nodded and took it with a smile.
Here, Mayor Henry immediately grabbed the gold-plated lighter on the table.
Director Grant had no choice but to grab those old-fashioned long-handled matches.
The two lit the fire at the same time and put it to Rockefeller's mouth.
Rockefeller glanced at the two of them, and finally chose a long match, lit the cigar, and slowly exhaled a stream of silver-gray smoke.
Grant smiled.
Mayor Henry looked disappointed.
Rockefeller crossed his legs and ignored their respective emotions. He smiled and said to Shi Zhijian: "To be honest, I was very active when I was young. I always had a sports dream. First I wanted to be a rugby player, and then I fell in love with golf.
, and I later put a lot of effort into it, but it’s a pity that because of my busy career, this skill also fell behind!”
After saying that, Rockefeller pointed at Shi Zhijian with his cigar between his fingers: "On the contrary, it's you. From the way you hit the ball and your handsome posture, I seemed to see myself young. You are really good, you can hit the ball at a young age."
There are so many good shots, it feels like you have practiced them a long time ago!"
Shi Zhijian smiled modestly: "I am a poor policeman, how can I have the money and time to practice this? I just happened to perform well just now!"
Shi Zhijian's words made Rockefeller nod, but he still couldn't help but be a little surprised.
He knew Shi Zhijian's background clearly. Indeed, in a place like Hong Kong, poor people are not qualified to have access to such high-end gadgets. Even many rich people in Hong Kong may not necessarily know how to play golf. But Shi Zhijian's performance just now was really too skillful.
He seems to be an old bird.
Of course Shi Zhijian would not tell him that in his previous life he was indeed an expert in golf. He had played golf for at least ten years.
Mayor Henry and Commissioner Grant won't pass up the opportunity to brag about rainbow farts.
"Mr. Locke, although Mr. Shi's golf skills are very good, he is still far behind you when compared to you!" Mayor Henry said with admiration on his face, and his eyes were filled with stars.
"Yes, from the first time you hit the ball beautifully, it is no longer a sport, but an art! Every action, every posture, and every expression of yours contains an artistic philosophy! Forgive me for learning. I have little talent, and I don’t have deep knowledge in this area, so I can’t fully understand the revelation you gave me!” Director Grant looked ashamed, as if he had committed a heinous crime.
Mayor Henry glanced at Grant unhappily, this son of a bitch always stole the limelight from him.
Director Grant turned his face away, pretending not to see anything.
In the distance, Yan Xiong ran over panting. He first glanced at Rockefeller apologetically, then leaned over and spoke a few words into Shi Zhijian's ear, and then retreated behind.
"What happened, dear Stone?" Rockefeller asked, chewing on his cigar.
"Oh, Mr. Shen Bi came here and said he wanted to see me." Shi Zhijian said with a smile.
"Then let him come over. We are resting anyway."
"Okay!" Shi Zhijian snapped his fingers towards Yan Xiong.
Yan Xiong immediately ran over to reply.
Soon, Shen Bi, who was always calm and sophisticated in a neat suit, ran over panting like Yan Xiong.
"Sorry, Mr. Shi!"
Whoops! Whoops!
Shen Bi took two breaths.
"I have something important to tell you!"
Shen Bi finally finished speaking in one breath.
"You can tell me whatever you have to say, there are no outsiders here!" Shi Zhijian stood up, put his hands on his hips, and said to Shen Bi with a cigar in his mouth.
Shen Bi glanced at Rockefeller, then at Henry and Grant, and then said: "Something happened to our Longteng Fund!"
When they heard "something happened to the Longteng Fund", Shi Zhijian and Rockefeller's expressions were still calm, but Mayor Henry and Director Grant felt a little bit in their hearts!
Henry invested three million U.S. dollars in Longteng Fund, and his seventh and eighth aunts also invested seven million U.S. dollars in it, totaling ten million dollars.
Immediately Mayor Henry's face became nervous. One look at Grant's expression and he knew that the other party must have invested money just like him.
Indeed, Grant also invested, all of his own money, a total of 1.5 million! In order to make up for the auspicious number of the Chinese, he also took out a loan of 300,000, for a total of 1.8 million!
"Don't be impatient, tell me slowly, what happened?" Shi Zhijian bit his cigar and blew out the smoke slowly, looking calm and calm.
Henry and Grant were so nervous that they were sweating!
"The thing is like this..." Shen Bi went through everything that happened in the investment company, especially emphasizing that the two billion U.S. dollars invested by Shi Zhijian have already lost more than 600 million, and the loss rate is about to reach Thirty percent!
Snap!
The cigar that Mayor Henry was biting fell to the ground in shock!
Snap!
Director Grant's cigar also fell to the ground!
The two of them stared with wide eyes and looked like they were dying!
Shi Zhijian held a cigar between his fingers, scratched the tip of his nose, and looked at Shen Bi: "Is this the case?"
"Uh, yes, that's it!" Shen Bi looked at Shi Zhijian and felt strange. Shi Zhijian was not nervous at all.
"Our company has already lost 600 million! Yes, God, it's only been half a month! And now our investment continues to lose money, but Soros is asking to continue to increase positions, and said that this is your decision !" Shen Bi's tone was trembling, his expression was excited, and his usual composure was wiped out by the huge loss.
"Yes, I ordered him to do this!" Shi Zhijian said lightly.
"What?" Shen Bi was shocked and looked at Shi Zhijian in disbelief: "We are still losing money, and you continue to add positions? The larger the position, the more losses we will have!"
Before Shi Zhijian could say anything, Mayor Henry and Mayor Grant were dizzy and shaking with fear!
"My three million!"
"My 1.8 million!"
"Wouldn't I lose 900,000 yuan now?"
"Mine is 540,000!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
Mayor Henry turned pale!
Director Grant's eyes widened!
Rockefeller stood aside with a relaxed expression, as if he was watching a play.
"No, Mr. Shi! We are still losing money now!" Shen Bi thought Shi Zhijian didn't understand what he meant.
"Yes, I know." Shi Zhijian said, "Just because we are still losing money, we have to increase our position. Why not use such cheap chips?"
"Uh, this-" Shen Bi was stunned.
Next to him, Mayor Henry could no longer hold back: "No, Mr. Shi! This is not how you pick up chips! Now it continues to fall. If we continue to buy, we will lose more!"
"Yes!" Director Grant also said: "The correct approach is that we should wait until the trend stabilizes and starts to rise before buying!"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "Sorry, I have to ask one more question, is the Longteng Fund yours or mine?"
"your!"
“Should you make decisions about investment funds, or should I make them?”
"You do it!"
"That's right!" Shi Zhijian turned to Shen Bi and said, "Did you hear that? I am the boss of Longteng Fund and I am the one who makes the decision. If I tell you to continue buying, you will buy it!"
"But---"
"But what?" Shi Zhijian opened his hands towards Shen Bi and asked confidently: "Is there something wrong?"
"Yes, is there anything wrong?" Rockefeller suddenly said from the side, "He is the boss, you are the wage earner, and you two are investors. It is not your turn to make the decision!"
Shen Bi was speechless.
Henry and Grant looked ashen!
Rockefeller continued with a smile: "Actually, I feel the same way as you. I listened to my dear Shi and did not sell oil when the price was high. Instead, I hoarded a lot. I estimate that I have lost at least 100 million now!"
"Huh?" The three of them looked at Rockefeller.
Rockefeller said: "The reason why I tell you this is not to show that I am rich and can afford to lose money, but to tell you that investing in this industry is just like gambling. You must be willing to admit defeat!"
Hearing this, Shen Bi didn't say another word, but looked worried.
He bowed slightly to Shi Zhijian and said: "Since you have decided this way, Mr. Shi, then I have no choice but to obey your order!"
Mayor Henry shouted in his heart: "The problem is that I can't afford to lose! My three million is my entire property!"
Director Grant is about to pass out. Compared to Mayor Henry, he has borrowed a loan shark! This time he will be killed by the debt collectors!
Think about it, if the police chief was hacked to death by a debt collector, what a big news it would be!
After Rockefeller finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards Shi Zhijian. He reached out and patted Shi Zhijian on the shoulder: "To be honest, you have gone too far this time!"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "The sky hasn't fallen yet, has it?"
Rockefeller smiled bitterly and said: "Although it has not collapsed, many people have already stood on the top of the building——"
After saying that, Rockefeller looked at the golf course and said, "How many people will jump off the building then?!"
