364 [It is always the vulture that benefits]

The bosses of the Taurus Club are very busy, so naturally it is impossible to stay in Port City all the time. Zhang Xuanlong, a half of the natives, watched Song Weiyang's operation from the middle of the month to the end of the month.

The Peninsula Hotel.

The hotel's tea restaurant should be the most talked about in Hong Kong. Many bigwigs don't talk about it every day, and some celebrities often appear, so that there are paparazzi lurking here at any time to take scandal photos.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Guo Xiaochun set off from his home and drove to the Peninsula Hotel for morning tea.

This playful uncle has actually become motivated in the past six months. For no other reason, I was despised and hit so much that I had to calm down and learn things.

As the legal representative of Taurus Capital and the nominal CEO, Guo Xiaochun has only a small share, but he still has the attention of countless Hong Kong city media. Soon after he came to Hong Kong City, he was touted and exposed by all kinds of people, and even beautiful female stars took the initiative to post upside down, and they had to receive invitations to the reception every three or five days.

First of all, Guo Xiaochun doesn't understand Cantonese, so he makes a lot of jokes about the language.

Secondly, some financial people took the initiative to chat with Guo Xiaochun, but they didn't know anything, and soon the whole Hong Kong knew that the president of Taurus Capital was a waste.

In the end, the female star who came up upside down dumped Guo Xiaochun in less than half a month. As for the reason, Guo Xiaochun doesn't have much money in his hand, and the houses he lives in are rented, and it is impossible to afford to support actresses who spend lavishly.

Friends in his hometown envy Guo Xiaochun's prosperity in Hong Kong City.

Guo Xiaochun can't wait to go back to his hometown to be chic, he can't speak well in Hong Kong, has no friends, and doesn't know what to do all day long. He used to like to play bowling, and he got tired of playing a few more times in Port City, and he used to think of KFC as a big meal, but in Port City he found that it was not like that.

Boredom, Guo Xiaochun was dragged to gamble by someone with ulterior motives, and lost all his money in Aocheng (in fact, he lost more than 6,000 Hong Kong dollars).

After losing all the cash on his body, the casino boy encouraged him to borrow again. Although Guo Xiaochun was anxious, he instantly sobered up, this routine he had encountered in his hometown, it was nothing more than some means to make money.

Can this deceive Lao Tzu?

Saint Seiya will never be knocked down by the same move!

Guo Xiaochun didn't even have any money to pay for his passage in the Aocheng Casino, and he didn't dare to tell his relatives and friends because it was so embarrassing! He called He Guoming, the trader of Taurus Capital, and borrowed money to cross the sea and return to Hong Kong City.

After spending half a year in Hong Kong City, Guo Xiaochun felt that he couldn't be wasted like this anymore.

He began to practice Cantonese, then enrolled in night classes, and also learned to manage companies and learn about finance. Until now, although Guo Xiaochun is still a half-ass, at least he won't ask questions and don't know anything when chatting.

Of course, our suave brother-in-law will never lack women. He had a girlfriend in night school, and his appearance was quite high, and he belonged to the more motivated kind - girls who were not motivated would not work hard to go to night school.

The live-in girlfriend knew that Guo Xiaochun was going to have morning tea with the boss, so she went out with her bag and said, "Jamie, you don't have to send me to work today, I can just take the bus by myself." ”

Well, Jamie is my uncle's English name, and I asked the night school teacher to help me come up with a broken name.

"Don't take the bus, take a taxi faster. Guo Xiaochun said.

"Okay, see you in the evening. My girlfriend waved goodbye.

Guo Xiaochun drove a second-hand car from the rental house to the Peninsula Hotel, and the parking boy didn't bother to say hello when he saw the broken car.

However, a few squatting reporters recognized Guo Xiaochun, and as soon as they got out of the car, they surrounded him: "Guo Sheng, the Hang Seng Index rose sharply yesterday, will Taurus Capital continue to be long today?"

"Go long, of course you have to go long, Soros will definitely lose!" Guo Xiaochun replied without hesitation, because Song Weiyang had already ordered it.

Another reporter asked: "I heard that not only did Taurus Capital Stud go long, but Boss Song mortgaged all his shares and borrowed $300 million to go long." Is this news true?"

Guo Xiaochun said: "It's not as much as 300 million US dollars. ”

"Then how much did Boss Song borrow?" the reporter asked.

Guo Xiaochun said: "I don't know. ”

A tabloid reporter suddenly asked: "Are Boss Song and Yang Gongru procrastinating?"

Guo Xiaochun said: "It's all said that it's a scandal, and they haven't met at all." ”

"Guo Sheng, who is that beautiful lady who has been following Boss Song these days?" another reporter asked.

Guo Xiaochun said: "Your news is too ill-informed. It was Miss Chen Tao, a shareholder of Xifeng Company, who was also a shareholder of Taurus Capital...... Okay, I'm going to go in for morning tea, please let me go. ”

When Guo Xiaochun came to the tea restaurant, Song Weiyang, Zhang Xuanlong and Chen Tao were eating breakfast.

Zhang Xuanlong is also a family from all over the world, although he has a home in Hong Kong City, he does not go back often, because his wife is from Wanwan and has to fly to North America every other day. He still has a few villas in the mainland, and he basically doesn't live there, and the grass is always empty.

For example, in the villa in Shencheng, Zhang Xuanlong gave Qiu Bojun as a reward, which is the one that Qiu Bojun sold to save Jinshan Company in history. There is also a villa in the capital, which is not lived in after decoration, and has lived in the hotel for a long time - room 1716 of the Yanshan Hotel, and has not accepted business for several years, because it is Zhang Xuanlong's fixed room.

In the past few days, Zhang Xuanlong has been staying with Song Weiyang in the Peninsula Hotel, and he said with a smile: "I have privately raised 2 million Hong Kong dollars, and I plan to do more with you today." ”

"You have to think about it," Song Weiyang reminded, "and now many financial media are predicting that the Hong Kong government has run out of money." As long as international speculators continue to smash the market today, the Hong Kong government will have no funds to bail out the market. ”

Zhang Xuanlong shook his head and said: "Any move is a very conservative financial bureaucrat, I have repeatedly thought about it, the operation of this half a month is not like any trick can be done." Unless, he has sufficient funds behind him to back him, so he dares to repeatedly save the market regardless of the cost. ”

"It's also possible that the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry and fought to the death, because there was no money until next month. Song Weiyang said.

Zhang Xuanlong laughed and said, "If you don't participate, I definitely think that any move is desperate to die." You're a person, you haven't done a loss-making business, and if you're not sure, you won't make a move. I don't know where you got the inside scoop, but it's definitely great news. Suddenly, Zhang Xuanlong lowered his voice, leaned over and asked, "Tell me, is it that the Chinese government has mobilized foreign exchange reserves to enter the market?"

Song Weiyang said: "I don't know. ”

"Don't know?" Zhang Xuanlong said in surprise.

Song Weiyang said: "I only know that once the Hong Kong government does not have enough funds, it will definitely be able to use the mainland's foreign exchange." The reason why the Hong Kong government dared to bail out the market in mid-August was not only because of the state's backing, but also because the Russian ruble plummeted! Many hedge funds were eager to cash out and go to Russia with money to clean up the mess. Thanks to Russian friends, they deprived Soros of a large number of helpers, which made the Hong Kong government's bailout in August so easy. ”

Zhang Xuanlong nodded and said: "I understand, the collapse of the ruble is equivalent to the hedge fund's backyard on fire, and many international speculators can no longer take care of the port city." Why don't the financial media in Hong Kong City focus on reporting this news?"

"There are reports," Song Weiyang said, "I have looked through all the financial newspapers in Hong Kong City this month, and there was a report on August 12." It may be that Hong Kong people are too pessimistic and think that even if many hedge funds leave the market, Soros will still be able to win in the end. ”

Guo Xiaochun and Chen Tao both sat next to them and listened silently, they didn't know much about financial knowledge, so they could only eat melons and watch dramas.

After drinking morning tea, everyone went straight to the futures exchange.

Even ordinary retail investors know that there will definitely be a big battle today.

The appearance of Song Weiyang undoubtedly brought a more lively message to the solemn atmosphere of the exchange. Because he pretended to be forced half a month ago, he has already been widely reported by the media in Hong Kong City, and the name of "God of Gamblers" has spread well.

"Song Sheng, I heard that you used the equity of Taurus Capital as collateral and privately borrowed $200 million to enter the market?"

"It's not that much, it's only 100 million. However, no matter how much I borrow, I will be bullish to death, and I believe that the Hang Seng stock index will continue to rise!"

"What if I lose?"

"It's not going to be a loss. It doesn't matter if you lose, it's a big deal to lose part of the equity of Taurus Capital to Citibank. I said Soros was going to run away with his tail between his legs, do you believe it?"

“……”

Therefore, the financial reporter of Hong Kong City likes Song Weiyang very much. This mainland boss is so interesting, he can do what others dare not do, he can say what others dare not say, and he can write news in a few casual sentences.

Even the news of private borrowing dollars to enter the market was deliberately released by Song Weiyang. Due to the rush of time, Song Weiyang did not borrow $100 million at all, but only borrowed more than $50 million. Moreover, the Hong Kong City Offered Rate was adjusted too high (300% overnight interest rate), and Song Weiyang could only transfer money overseas, and his hand was less than 50 million.

Song Weiyang walked to the center of the trading hall, smiled and waved his hand, and shouted: "Today I borrowed $100 million to go long, and if you want to make money, dare to vote with me again! The Russian ruble has plummeted, and many speculators have cashed out in the port city and left the market, and Soros does not have as many accomplices as before; the yen continues to appreciate, and the cost of exchanging foreign exchange for speculators has increased greatly, and the funds in Soros's hands are also difficult. Do you all turn a blind eye to all this good news? Do you think I'm so stupid? If Lao Tzu is not sure, he will throw so much money into it? Friends who used to be short, as long as you still have funds in your hand, hurry up and close your positions and turn over more, at least you can get your capital back! It's a man, just do it with me this year!"

If these words had been placed half a month ago, they would have been ridiculed.

But now, many people think carefully, it is really because the rise of the Hang Seng Index is too gratifying.

Zhang Xuanlong said with a smile: "I am the general manager of Gangcheng Sitong, and today I am going to spend 2 million Hong Kong dollars to go in and accompany Boss Song to take a small gamble." If you are interested, you can do it with us. ”

Song Weiyang and Zhang Xuanlong stood on the trading floor, and Chen Tao and Guo Xiaochun also accompanied the whole process.

At 10 a.m., the exchange opens.

Song Weiyang deliberately roared and yelled: "The $100 million I borrowed, all of them are long, eat as many empty orders as you want, and don't give me a penny left!"

He Guoming resisted the urge to roll his eyes, thinking: You have a fart of 100 million US dollars, and 50 million US dollars is not enough.

At the moment of market opening, international speculators frantically smashed short orders, and the Hang Seng Index immediately fell slightly. The Hong Kong government eats as much as it wants, does not do more, and pulls the Hang Seng Index upward.

"Rise, rise for Lao Tzu!" Song Weiyang roared arrogantly, attracting a burst of sideways.

The Hang Seng Index is like a soldier, with Song Weiyang's order, it has jumped by 10 points, 20 points, and 30 points in minutes......

In just 5 minutes after the market opened, the turnover exceeded 3.9 billion Hong Kong dollars, broke 10 billion half an hour later, reached 40 billion in the morning and more than 79 billion in the afternoon.

For the time being, the Hong Kong government did not use the mainland's foreign exchange reserves, and they first mobilized the exchange fund, and then the exchange fund was used up and then transferred the land fund -- the Chinese government did not pay a penny, but just left it there for backup.

Everyone looked stupid, because this year, the Hang Seng Index has only fallen so fast, and it has not risen so fast.

"Boom!"

When the closing bell rang, the exchange was already in a frenzy, and countless people were laughing and crying, and some even took off their clothes and threw them around.

Song Weiyang was wearing a suit, looking up at the electronic screen, and this back was photographed by a reporter from the "Financial Daily" and became the front page of the newspaper the next day.

The god of stocks, well deserved, has left an eternal legend in the port city.

This was the end of the August War.

From mid-August to now, the Hang Seng Index has risen by more than 1,200 points, and international speculators will lose huge amounts once they close their positions, and if they choose to transfer positions, the cost of rolling positions per contract is as high as more than 30,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Although Soros hedged in the foreign exchange market, stock market and futures market, he still lost a lot of money, and he will continue to lose money in September.

Yes, Soros still hasn't given up, he doesn't think August is Armageddon, he still wants to continue to fight a protracted war in September.

By the beginning of September, international speculators continued to short, and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority suddenly issued new rules, which greatly restricted investment. At the same time, the yen continues to appreciate, the Southeast Asian market stabilizes, the cost of exchange for speculators has increased significantly, coupled with the depreciation of the ruble, the backyard is on fire, and the Chinese government has also spoken out strongly, this financial war can no longer be fought.

Maybe Soros wants to insist, but other speculators are not so determined, and they have withdrawn a lot one after another.

In this case, even if he survived to the end, Soros could only fight alone, so he chose to abandon his son and admit defeat.

In fact, Soros did not fail, he just fell short of expectations. Even though he lost a lot in August and September, some estimate that Soros made a total of $1 billion in Port City, including the money he has earned in the past year. Of course, some people say that Soros lost hundreds of millions of dollars, and only he knows what it is.

The Hong Kong government has not failed, and has successfully maintained a fixed exchange rate, and its foreign exchange reserves have increased instead of decreasing, which is simply perfect.

The Chinese government did not fail, and although it mobilized foreign exchange reserves to back it up, it did not have time to spend a penny. The Chinese government flexed its muscles and got a reputation for saving the port city.

Only the people of Hong Kong City have completely failed, countless people have become negative equity, and life will not be easy in the next few years.

The capitalists and foreign capital in the port city are like vultures, and after the withdrawal of Soros, they began to clean up the battlefield. The rotting flesh of the fallen corpses became the nourishment for them to continue to grow, including Song Weiyang, who was also a part of the vultures.

Taurus Capital can't always play securities, nor can it always rely on Song Weiyang's foresight to engage in venture capital.

Now that he has made so much money, he certainly won't sit idle in the bank, and Port City is full of plummeting stocks and real estate, as well as some businesses on the verge of bankruptcy. As a result, Taurus Capital began to operate normally, without Song Weiyang's intervention at all, and its own professionals engaged in appraisal and acquisition.

Just the office buildings in the port city, Taurus Capital bought two, and the price was so low that it could wake people up from a dream.
