Chapter 0106: Cool
"For example, Mr. Brewer, who is the most beloved nephew of Milton Friedman, a famous professor at the University of Chicago, and Friedman is very fond of him and responds to his needs!"
But this time, Mr. Brewer was also the one who lost the most, losing all the $350 million he invested in the Sakura Fund. ”
"Hearing that the school has ordered him to fill the hole personally, or else not only fire him but also take him to court, even Professor Friedman is trying to find a way to raise money for him. ”
"And that Mr. Aziz, the third son of Prince Abdul of Saudi Arabia, and this time he also lost nearly $150 million, wait!"
"If you can save them from danger this time, isn't it equivalent to getting so many connections for free?
He Junliang's words were to the point, and Qiao Tianyu was completely moved.
To borrow a sentence from "Wulin Gaiden", "Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes." ”
No matter what country you are, your network will always be the primary productive force for investment.
With connections, you can get a steady stream of financial support;
With connections, you can get investment opportunities that others dare not expect;
With networking, you can be unimpeded in all fields and maximize the search for earning opportunities.
Without expansion, networking is everything in the investment world!
Take today's short war as an example, if it weren't for Rubin's connections and being able to borrow huge amounts of money from Russian financial oligarchs, Qiao Tianyu would not have been able to win against the four major hedge funds at all!
After He Junliang's little dial, Qiao Tianyu immediately nodded in agreement.
"Okay, then do as the guy says!"
"Great! Great!"
"Saved!"
"Hooray!"
......
When Qiao Tianyu nodded, the scene immediately erupted in bursts of earth-shattering applause, which frightened Qiao Tianyu and hurriedly shouted to stop.
Big brothers, it's just half past four in the morning, okay?
Are you yelling like this to force your neighbors to call the police?
He Junliang and others came prepared, and they were already ready to sign the contract.
After Qiao Tianyu and the more than 40 university fund managers all signed, the contract officially took effect.
Qiao Tianyu is happy to invest $1.7 billion, and at the same time, he is also saddled with heavy profit shackles!
After the signing was over, He Junliang, Liu Kai and others had to pull Qiao Tianyu out to have fun, but Qiao Tianyu was too sleepy, so he politely refused everyone's kindness.
Seeing that Qiao Tianyu didn't have the heart to be happy, Liu Kai called Qiao Tianyu aside, secretly stuffed Qiao Tianyu with a note, and said goodbye with everyone.
After sending everyone away, Qiao Tianyu took out the note and opened it to take a look, and suddenly a knowing smile appeared on his face.
After seeing everyone leave from the window, Qiao Tianyu ran downstairs, a Cadillac off-road was parked at the door of the apartment building, and Qiao Tianyu directly pulled the door and got into the car.
In addition to the driver Liu Kai, there is also a familiar figure in the car.
"Division... Master..."Seeing Qiao Tianyu coming up, the little chubby face was full of tears.
"Okay, what a child, don't be ashamed, let's go!"
Qiao Tianyu beckoned the little chubby face to get out of the car, and reached out to pat Liu Kai's shoulder.
"Dude, thanks!"
"You're welcome. Liu Kai smiled back.
On the way back to the apartment, the little chubby face was like a child who had done something wrong, and followed behind Qiao Tianyu step by step, so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe.
"Master, don't scold me, I really know it's wrong!"
As soon as he returned to the apartment, the little chubby face was trembling with fright, and he was about to kneel down for Qiao Tianyu.
"Well, I'm sorry for you. Qiao Tianyu smiled and comforted.
"I'm going to Russia in two days, would you be interested in going along?"
"Master, will you take me there again? I've messed up so many things for you. The little chubby face didn't believe that Qiao Tianyu still trusted her.
"Of course, it's just about paying the tuition. Qiao Tianyu said with a smile.
"Okay, if you want to go, go to bed quickly, and go to get a visa after dawn, my visa, Henry has already started to get it. ”
"Oh. ”
Chubby Face turned back to the room step by step, she still couldn't believe it, could it be that those things were just settled?
However, looking at the figure of the little chubby face leaving, Qiao Tianyu showed a weird smile on his face.
"Good wine should be drunk slowly......"
In the next three days, Henry and Chubby Face were busy applying for visas, while Qiao Tianyu became a big idler.
However, because of the $1.7 billion investment from the university fund, Qiao Tianyu has confidence in his heart, and he is not in a hurry to find investment.
So in the past three days, Qiao Tianyu honestly rested for three days, didn't do anything, and enjoyed a rare free time.
Fortunately, there were Russian financial oligarchs who greeted them, and the Russian consulate approved the entry application of Qiao Tianyu and others within three days, which was already a god speed for the Cold War period that had just ended between the United States and the Soviet Union.
Three days later, Qiao Tianyu, Chubby Face and Rubin successfully boarded the flight.
However, at that time, the Cold War had just ended, and there were very few direct flights from the United States to Russia.
So Qiao Tianyu and others went from New York to Frankfurt for a transfer, and then flew from Frankfurt to Moscow, and after a day of tossing, they finally landed at Moscow Sheremetyevo International Airport.
A day of hard travel made everyone physically and mentally exhausted, but the next encounter made Qiao Tianyu never forget it for the rest of his life.
I don't know if it was because of the shortage of parking stands, the plane did not stop at the parking stand after landing, but parked in the airport.
Everyone thought they were going to take the shuttle bus to get their luggage, so some people began to complain dissatisfiedly, not knowing what time it would be again.
However, after the plane came to a stop, the door was not opened for a long time, and the radio on the plane sounded.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please put down the visor quickly according to the requirements of airport control!"
As soon as the sound of the announcement fell, the flight attendants came out and instructed the passengers to lower the visors.
But judging from their mournful appearance, it seems that something big has happened!
Within two minutes of the light visor being lowered, I heard the police lights outside the plane, and there were already many police cars outside.
Qiao Tianyu couldn't help muttering, could it be that there was a spy on the plane and was discovered by Russian KGB agents?
Regarding the tension between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, Qiao Tianyu has heard of it.
At that time, many people were arrested and tortured as spies, could this really happen?
But this is not scientific, now that the Cold War has ended with the collapse of the Soviet Union, and Russia is carrying out privatization on a large scale according to the route designed by the West, why is this happening?
Keep in mind that while many hedge funds may have a high performance in a given year.
For example, LTCM, a long-term capital management company in the United States mentioned many times, had investment returns of 42.8% in 1995 and 40.8% in 1996, respectively.
However, it is difficult to maintain a high level for a long time, even in the heyday of hedge funds in later generations, the long-term annualized return of most hedge funds is only in the single digits, and a few with excellent performance can reach between 10% and 20%.
Even the Quantum Fund, which is also one of the world's four largest hedge funds, has only achieved an annualized return of 32% over a period of 30 years under the leadership of Soros.
And the conditions offered by He Junliang and others are far higher than the average level of hedge funds, and even higher than quantum funds!
It's a big challenge!
Seeing that Qiao Tianyu was a little hesitant, He Junliang continued to increase.
"Brother Qiao, you can't just look at what you're looking at!"
"If you look at these people, except for a few of us who are Chinese, there are more than 30 other people, all from the United States, Britain, Germany, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, South Korea and other different countries. ”
"They are all well-known people in their respective countries, with a lot of connections and resources, but they are a force that should not be underestimated......"
