As soon as the old Bernard Madoff's money was put into the account of Freshwater Investment Group, Ye Dongqing had already decided in which direction to invest - bullish oil futures.

He knows that there is nothing wrong with this approach, and it is very likely to make a lot of money, but others don't know that since Mr. McCord heard the news yesterday, it has exploded in the company's high-level circles, and most of them feel that it is a bit hasty to use leverage to bet so much money.

After all, even McCord couldn't persuade him to change his mind, so McCord didn't sleep all night last night, busy sorting out all kinds of news and materials, trying to follow Ye Dongqing's idea while minimizing the risk, such as using 20 to 30 percent of the capital to hedge, going long and shorting at the same time, or investing in other links in the oil industry chain, and don't put all the chips on oil futures.

As a subordinate, he felt that he needed to give the right advice, but unfortunately Ye Dongqing was not an ordinary person, not short-sighted like other bosses, and it was not easy to convince him, or it was almost impossible, so McCord was destined to work in vain last night.

Coming in person at the appointed time, Mr. Bernard Madoff looks as elegant as ever, he has been baptized in high society for so many years, he is barely half a nobleman, at least his temperament Ye Dongqing can't learn for the time being, just from the surface, who would have guessed that such a Jewish old man has caused a deficit of hundreds of millions of dollars? and continues to use connections to deceive people?

Living like old Bernard is also a kind of ability, he has a kind of ability to make others believe in him, and he can't do it without a little skill.

Wearing a black coat, a black suit and a white shirt inside, with a red tie, his hair was combed to the bare and silvery, holding a cane in his left hand, holding a box in his hand, he handed it to Ye Dongqing with a smile and said: "The top Gurkha Royal Million Dollar Cigars, each box is soaked with a whole bottle of Louis XIII, cultivated in the cold and thick soil of the Himalayas, watered with Fijian clean water, and then the whole cigar is wrapped in gold leaves, and at the same time inlaid with diamonds in the label logo."

I happen to have a box in my collection, and the doctor said that I can't smoke cigars anymore, such a good thing should be given to the right person, and I happen to know that you will occasionally have one, smoking less can be refreshing, smoking more is not good, doing business, usually indispensable for socializing, cigars are a good thing. ”

Ye Dongqing has been doing business until now, and finally someone came to the door to give gifts, he happened to know this kind of gimmicky cigar, and replied: "A box of millions of dollars, where is smoking cigars, it is more expensive than burning Franklin." ”

"Haha! With your earning power, it doesn't matter if it's one box a day, if you like it, I'll send you some next time. After Bernard took off his coat, he handed the clothes and crutches to his young "female secretary", who is also Jewish, and is still a little related to the old man, because he is beautiful, he brought it over, hoping to be looked at by Ye Dongqing, the kind that is best to maintain a long-term relationship.

When it comes to these small means, he is much more experienced than Ye Dongqing, and he has no intention of taking the initiative to introduce them, seeing that Ye Dongqing's gaze stayed on his junior's face for a few seconds, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

A young rich man worth billions of dollars, who doesn't want to get closer, in the old man's opinion, this is helping her, others can't find a chance to make friends, they all say that there are many rich people in the United States, but there is a huge New York City, how many super-rich people are there?

Whether it is the mayor of New York or the two Koch brothers, they are all middle-aged and elderly, Ye Dongqing is still young, judging from last year's upward momentum, it is not impossible to surpass those predecessors, you must know that Bernard Sr. has been the chairman of the NASDAQ stock exchange for so many years, and he clearly knows what the performance of a company like Facebook will be after it goes public, and it is definitely not bad.

Ye Dongqing is not a roundworm in his stomach, how can he guess the old man's thoughts, and even think that the old cow in front of him eats tender grass, so he specially found a beautiful woman to be his secretary.

After inviting old Bernard to sit down, he directly opened the box and took out two cigars, which looked like they were plated with a layer of gold, and they were full of appearance, no wonder they could be sold for such a sky-high price.

Grabbing the handle in his hand, Ye Dongqing seemed to himself to be the benefactor of the old man and his whole family, and said with an unceremonious smile: "That's really good, I can't tell the difference between good and bad when I smoke a cigar, this appearance has successfully attracted me, so what is the matter with coming to me today? I have received your money, and I am thinking about where to invest, with an annualized interest of 11%, it is not easy to earn it back with a billion US dollars." ”

It's really not easy, it means that with this money to invest, the income must be at least 110 million US dollars, if it is so easy, others have directly invested, how can it be stupid enough to put the money in the hands of the old man and ask him to help invest.

Old Bernard just said that the doctor would not let him smoke cigars, but at this moment he took the lighter handed by Ye Dongqing, put the cigar in his hand and lit it in his mouth, even for this old man, the royal million-dollar cigar is a good thing, the production is too low, there are too many people to buy it, in order to send it to Ye Dongqing, he himself is reluctant to smoke, and now that he has the opportunity to taste it, he naturally does not want to miss it.

Sending things out, even if it's someone else's thing, a piece of tens of thousands of dollars is expensive, compared with the profits that may be obtained from Ye Dongqing, but it is nothing, Bernard said in his mouth: "It's not easy, but if there is a little chance of success, I won't take risks, it's a trouble to have more money, in fact, I only have tens of millions of dollars at that time, the return on investment is still very good, successfully avoided the collapse of the Internet bubble, but also missed Microsoft, Good companies like Oracle can see them every day, but they feel that every day is the highest point, and the opportunity is just missed. ”

"I missed the opportunity before, and there will be another one, so it depends on the vision, and by the way, this cigarette is really good. ”

Ye Dongqing was still thinking about the money left in the old man's hand, and when he was stupid, he would directly tell him which company he should invest in, and his words were vague, as if he was sighing.

However, the transactions of Tamsui Investment Group are almost transparent, except for Richard and Edward Jr., I haven't seen any big companies invest according to Ye Dongqing's learning, and I still think it's because I can't believe it, I'm worried that the funds will be trapped in the stock market, others don't think there's anything, Ye Dongqing himself always thinks it's interesting.

After a few years, I believe many people will regret that they want to hit the wall with their heads......
