In the morning, Lin Zuhui came to the trading room of Hengjin Investment and personally took charge of the foreign exchange and gold operations. Even though Hengjin Investment is just a private investment company, its equipment in all aspects is very advanced in Hong Kong. Hengjin Investment also owns the Stock Exchange.
three brokerage licenses.
"Boss, USD/JPY opened at 158.3 points!" Li Hao said happily.
In fact, yesterday it opened at 156.9 points and closed at 157.5 points.
However, Lin Zuhui has a psychological price, which is 158 points. Only when this index is reached, he will notify the liquidation. And it is not a violent liquidation, but a gradual liquidation.
Lin Zuhui nodded and said calmly: "Start closing the position! It will be divided into 10 to 15 trading days to close the position. During this period, no matter how much it rises or falls every day, the positions will be closed evenly. Also, arrange the closing of the gold position, remember to notify
Yang Jinxun."
He believes that it will not plummet. After all, the general environment is impossible. The reason for the sharp rise of USD/JPY this time is because the Japanese economic bubble burst, which will cause the Japanese yen to depreciate; that is, as the Japanese yen appreciated that year, the Japanese economy rose.
Opposite trend.
Li Hao nodded and immediately started to make arrangements.
This time, Hengjin Investment should have made a profit of more than 2 billion in foreign exchange and withdrawn funds of 4 billion;
Gold futures made a profit of 1.1 billion and withdrawn funds of 2.1 billion.
A total of more than 6 billion funds!
Lin Zuhui still has 4 billion in cash on hand, and of course he still has 6.5 billion in debt;
However, Lin Zuhui already has 1.5 billion in funds for short-selling the Nikkei futures index, 25% of Modern Container's shares have appreciated to 3 billion (Wharf bid), and Heung Kong Securities has a market value of 4.5 billion.
Excluding the debt of 6 billion, he already has a cash flow of 12.5 billion. This strength is unmatched in Hong Kong.
Of course, the wealth invested by Hengjin is his hidden wealth, including Hengjin Real Estate (a property in Xiangjiang worth nearly 10 billion), a 3.9% stake in Nike, a 2% stake in Microsoft, and a 10% stake in Starbucks (unlisted).
This year, the American Fortune magazine ranked the wealth of capitalists in Hong Kong, and Lin Zuhui ranked second with a wealth of 15 billion, second only to Li Chaoren's 18 billion, and higher than Kadoorie's 11.5 billion.
Of course, this wealth list is not authoritative. It is just ranked according to market value and holdings.
Time flies, and a week passes in the blink of an eye.
On April 6, Lin Zuhui came to Kai Tak Airport. He was invited to visit the launch of Asia Satellite 1, and the launch time is tomorrow.
Arriving at the VIP lounge of the airport, Lin Zuhui saw Mr. Rong, Li Chaoren, Huo Yingdong and others. He heard that Yingjiang and Huaxia had invited guests from 17 countries, as well as Hong Kong and Taiwan, to gather at the launch site.
"You're not late!" Lin Zuhui joined everyone with a smile, his face looking very calm.
"Of course I'm not late!" Mr. Rong said first.
Then, everyone said hello one after another, and Li Chaoren and Lin Zuhui also greeted each other, as if nothing had happened between them.
While waiting, Lin Zuhui teased Li Chao and said: "Li Sheng, if I hadn't wanted to rent the receiver of Asia Satellite 1 this time, I wouldn't have known that you were already preparing to attack our ATV!"
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two of them, and they were even more surprised by Lin Zuhui's straightforwardness. The meaning of Lin Zuhui's words was very clear, that is, Li Chaoren wanted to set up satellite TV, which would inevitably affect the rights of ATV and Wireless.
You know, ATV and Wireless hold patent rights, so how can they destroy it like this?
If this is the case, then can Lam Cho-fai also enter the electric power industry and destroy the patent rights of Hong Kong Electric and CLP?
Li Chaoren is recognized as a talker in Xiangjiang. He can relate everything to the national and national level, which is refreshing. At this point, I am afraid no one in Xiangjiang can compare with him.
Li Chaoren responded with a smile: "This matter is still uncertain. After all, the establishment of satellite TV requires the approval of the Hong Kong government. After all, satellite TV and wireless TV are different. The Hong Kong government is also issuing cable TV licenses. I personally think
Satellite TV can also exist in Xiangjiang. Advanced technology cannot be excluded and affect the development of the entire industry. Besides, isn't Lin Sheng also preparing for satellite TV?"
Only Lin Zuhui is also preparing for satellite TV, and he has taken the initiative in the matter. It is indeed Li Chaoren.
Lin Zuhui said: "For the same reason, it seems that our ATV will have two more powerful opponents!" Even so, his face looked very relaxed.
Since it has become an established fact, Lin Zuhui will naturally not worry about it, and Li Chaoren's satellite TV will definitely be subject to two restrictions: first, it cannot have Cantonese channels; second, it cannot charge Hong Kong viewers.
Especially the first one will allow the three TV stations, TVB, ATV and Cable, to put pressure on the Hong Kong government. Of course, they may be released in a few years.
Li Chaoren said modestly: "When it comes to media, who among us here dares to compete with you? Lin Sheng just sit tight on Diaoyutai!"
"Excuse me, Li Sheng, your two sons have drank foreign ink, so they may know more than me!"
Although there was no confrontation between swords and guns, everyone still felt the smell of gunpowder between the two. This was the competition between the tycoons.
Soon, everyone boarded the chartered flight and headed to Xichang.
On the plane, Lin Zuhui and Mr. Huo sat together and chatted.
"Mr. Huo, is there still a gap in funding for the Asian Games?" Lin Zuhui asked.
When he was a child in his previous life, Lin Zuhui remembered that there was a nationwide donation event for the Asian Games, and a little girl was invited to the capital as a guest because her first donation, although it was only 1.6 yuan, was of great significance.
The feeling that people across the country are united is still very shocking. "Have you donated today?" once became a buzzword at that time. In order to host the Asian Games in Beijing, tens of millions of people across the country generously donated a total of 270 million yuan.
Accounting for 110 of the total investment.
Mr. Huo immediately said: "There must be a shortage of funds, and you also know the actual situation in our country!"
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "I didn't expect this when I went to Beijing last time. This time I was invited to watch the satellite launch. I was thinking that the Asian Games can definitely be watched through satellite. So I plan to donate 30 million yuan, please.
You can help me pull the strings and do the work on my behalf."
Mr. Huo immediately smiled and said: "This is a good thing! Okay, I will arrange it for you, and then I will hold a donation ceremony for you!"
Lin Zuhui waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, there is no need for anything, just donate anonymously! My work here has been a bit busy recently, and I have not had time to go to the capital. I am also worried that the money will not be put to use in time, so I will let you do it for me.
"
The Asian Games is in September, so 30 million can be put to use no matter what.
Mr. Huo thought for a while and said: "I don't want anonymity. It's okay for me to do it for you, but I must say it was donated by you, Lin Zuhui."
Well, actually he really wanted to remain anonymous, it was too high-profile.
They just donated 50 million yuan to Shunde in the Mainland, and immediately donated another 30 million yuan to the Asian Games, which is really high-profile.
Lin Zuhui and Mr. Huo are familiar with each other. They have met in many places in Hong Kong and they could chat on the plane.
On April 7, guests from seventeen countries, as well as Hong Kong and Taiwan gathered at the launch site, waiting to witness the magnificent scene of the satellite launch. If the satellite launch fails, it will be a loss for both China and Yingjiang.
Loss.
The weather that day was not good, a bit gloomy!
Speaking of this weather, China and the United States held different opinions on the determination of the launch date beforehand.
China's meteorological department deduced from decades of historical data and the latest information that the best launch day should be April 5. However, Yingjiang disagreed. They did not believe that China could predict the weather so accurately.
Eagle Sauce insisted on setting the launch date as April 7th, because they had already sent invitations to travel around the world, and the date written on the invitations was April 7th.
Finally, the date was decided at 21:00 on April 7.
Launch Observation Deck.
Lin Zuhui and other guests from Xiangjiang walked in, which attracted the attention of many guests. Lin Zuhui was very young. Many ghosts thought that someone's nephew had brought him in. They never expected that he was a tycoon from Xiangjiang.
The Hua Fang receptionist was a high-ranking official, so he naturally did not lose his etiquette. He did not know Lin Zuhui and received him warmly.
Soon, everyone found their positions, and there was still nearly an hour before the launch time.
As time passed, the atmosphere at the observation deck began to become tense. The past two years were disaster years in the history of world aviation. The United States and France failed to launch one after another, and they lost not only money and manpower, but also confidence.
Of course, the most nervous ones are China and its insurance companies.
The other side.
When the commander was about to give the command to ignite and launch, he discovered that billowing white smoke was coming from a certain part above the rocket, which looked like a leak of liquid hydrogen fuel.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Soon, the people at the control tower noticed that the white smoke began to get smaller, and they guessed that the hydrogen exhaust port might be closing.
"Let's go!" the deputy commander-in-chief shouted resolutely. If it doesn't launch yet, China's first step into the world's aerospace market will have failed, and other results will be difficult to imagine.
At 21:30:33 that day, the carrier rocket successfully launched the "Asia-1" satellite at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center. Thousands of people witnessed the magnificent scene of the launch.
"Successful!" People on the observation deck cheered for a while.
Back in Xiangjiang, Lin Zuhui published a rare article in his own media.
At this time, Lin Zuhui couldn't keep a low profile even if he wanted to. After all, he has become the second richest man in Hong Kong at a young age. How can he keep a low profile?
Therefore, he also began to use his own media to carry out some social activities.
The successful launch of this satellite has had some effect on the social status of Xiangjiang. You may think so, but you didn't expect that the motherland's aerospace strength has reached this level.
At the same time, most of the foreign exchange investment and gold investment of Hengjin Investment and New Era Group have been withdrawn. Lin Zuhui has also begun to prepare for a trip to Europe and the United States. After all, he can no longer spend much money in Hong Kong.
This trip to Europe and the United States is his true departure from Hong Kong, so he will carefully examine the market, although he already knows many projects. Moreover, he will also participate in some entertainment and get to know more European and American politicians and businessmen.
