Chapter 205 and then to Chicago

……

"Boss, this is the financial statement of the Thunder Fund last week!"

After taking the information in Wendy's hand and taking a look, Guo Shouyun showed a smile on his face.

"It's up again!"

"In addition to our own funds, Thunder's total subscription has reached $757 million. However, the growth rate is not so fast now compared to some time ago!"

Guo Shouyun nodded knowingly, "After all, Thunder is a newcomer in the private equity industry, although the revenue ratio is amazing, but it lacks some background." It's good to have this result now. Later, as we make more profits, I believe that the fund's subscription capital will increase even more. ”

"I have a lot of faith in my boss!"

didn't dare to look at Wendy's fiery eyes, "Is Zhang Shaoling back?"

"It's back. ”

"Go get him!"

After glancing at him, Wendy walked out with her slender waist twisted. Looking at her tall and slender back, Guo Shouyun's eyes showed a trace of hesitation. After half a ring, he shook his head slightly and sighed.

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

It didn't take long for Zhang Shaoling, who was in a suit and leather shoes, to walk in.

"Sit down!"

"Hmm!"

"How is it, how are you doing during the holidays?" asked Guo Shouyun with a smile after he sat down.

"It was amazing. Now I'm waiting to do another big deal with the boss!"

"Hehe, there will be a chance, but we need to wait for the time being. As he spoke, Guo Shouyun took out a stack of documents from the drawer and handed them over, "Take a look!"

"You've already put it in?" Zhang Shaoling said in surprise as he looked at the contents of the document.

"Well, when you go on vacation, I've been keeping an eye on the price of gold. During the period of March 29~April 2, the range price of gold dropped to $254~$256, and I thought it was a very rare opportunity to get started, so I established a position of $7 billion. At present, the Thunder Fund holds 2.745 million gold futures contracts under 10x leverage. By the way, I also have $4.4 billion in margin for my position. Regardless of whether there will be a bigger drop in the price of gold before the Argentine financial crisis, our investment will not be completely lost. ”

"Boss, will Argentina really break out into a financial crisis?" this is a point that Zhang Shaoling has always been worried about.

"Yes!"

Guo Shouyun nodded firmly.

Combined with his vague memories and detailed and comprehensive information on the Argentine economy, he is very sure that a crisis will break out in Argentina, and it is difficult to say when it will be. Maybe it's May, maybe it's June, maybe it's July.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if the Argentine financial crisis is gone, it is gone. There's an even more sensational 9/11 at the back. As long as there is an outbreak between the two, the price of gold will rise to the sky, and he will still make a lot of money. Therefore, Guo Shouyun is very firm in his investment in gold. If it weren't for the need for funds to buy Pacific and Southern California, as well as Apple's excess shares, and for the need for funds to help Pacific and Southern California survive the energy crisis, he would not have left $4.4 billion in position margin.

Perhaps under the influence of Guo Shouyun, Zhang Shaoling's heart also became inexplicably firm.

"Your task in the future is to lead the team, and then report to me on time at 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. every day on time on the gold price and the core news related to it. ”

"Understood!"

"It's okay, you go get busy!"

"Can I take this information?"

"Take it, it was meant for you!"

Zhang Shaoling nodded, turned around and walked out.

After the room returned to quiet, Guo Shouyun sat on the chair and thought for a while, then took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Lei.

"Boss!"

"How's going on with Jianlibao?"

"After we promised not to move the Jianlibao factory out of Sishui and raise the acquisition fund by 420 million Huaxia dollars, they have agreed and signed the contract this afternoon. ”

"Is the payment method agreed?"

"According to what you said, pay 30% first after signing the contract, pay 30% after half a year, and pay it off after one year!"

"That's good!"

"Boss, we have enough funds in our hands, why don't we pay it all at once? If that's the case, we can also push down the total purchase price!" Zhang Lei wondered.

You must know that while the Thunder Fund made a lot of money through gold, the Hanhua Fund also made a lot of money under the command of Guo Shouyun. Moreover, because the target was small, Guo Shouyun also lost money, so when he was speculating in gold, he directly used $45 million in Nomura Securities, Bear Stearns and other platforms with 20 times leverage. By the time Argentina's debt default ended, the money had nearly quadrupled. After deducting handling fees, commissions, employee bonuses, and paying taxes, there is still about $150 million left, which is more than enough to buy a Jianlibao.

"Because compared to the 20 or 30 million Huaxia dollars, I plan to double the scale of the Hanhua Fund in April. ”

"It's... How is that possible?" Zhang Lei was shocked.

"Nothing is impossible, and you'll understand when the time comes. ”

After seeing Guo Shouyun's amazing means of turning decay into magic in the previous gold speculation, when he heard such words at this time, although he was surprised, he didn't say anything.

"By the way, after winning Jianlibao, let Li Jingwei act as an intermediary to solve the matter of taking a stake in Li Ning Sporting Goods Company, it has great potential!"

"Yes!"

"For the time being, remember to notify me of anything!"

"Understood!"

After hanging up the phone, Guo Shouyun quickly found another number and called.

"Matthew!"

"Boss!"

"The venue on Yulin Island is still enough, right?"

"Boss, this island is big enough to garrison an aircraft carrier formation!"

"Hehe, it's good if you're satisfied!By the way, how many people are trained on the island now?"

"At present, the scale of 120 people has been maintained, but a batch will definitely be eliminated later!"

"How many loyal and reliable people are there?"

Matthew was stunned for a moment, and after noticing the abnormality in Guo Shouyun's tone, "What does the boss mean...?"

"I have a mission that requires some reliable manpower!"

"How much do you need?"

"The more the merrier!"

"Got it, I'll type the list out to you tonight!"

"No, you just have to know what you know. I only need to know a total number, and then I will tell you the content of the task in detail, and you will command them to carry it out!"

"Yes!"

Guo Shouyun's trust is touching.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the 2000~2001 UEFA Champions League match table on the table, and muttered to himself: "It doesn't take too much, as long as you can make three or four billion dollars, you can become a killer at a critical moment." ”

……

"Uncle Guo...!"

Looking at the little guy running towards him, Guo Shouyun took two steps forward, picked her up with both hands and spun around in mid-air.

"Sweetheart, this is a gift from Uncle Guo for you!" As he spoke, Guo Shouyun reached out and picked up the doll that was temporarily placed on the ground.

"Wow, Woody!"

Since the success of Pixar's two "Toy Story" films, the dolls of classic characters have become toys for children.

Looking at his elated daughter, Ao Guanhai smiled and said, "Bruce, in Maria's heart, my father is not as close as your uncle, which is really a jealous thing. "Haha, my temperament is naturally popular with children, and you can't compare to that, Barack!"

This is not Guo Shouyun's boasting, whether it is ***'s eldest daughter Maria, or Rowling's daughter Jessica, or Liu Zhixing's daughter Liu Nan, they are all close to Guo Shouyun. Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that Guo Shouyun is not as strict as their father disciplining them, and there are gifts every time.

"What about Michelle?"

"Watching Sasha from upstairs!"

After nodding clearly, Guo Shouyun put down the little guy in his arms and patted her little head, "Go play!"

After Mary nodded, she ran towards the second floor with her calves open, "Mom, Uncle Guo bought me the Woody...!"

Looking at her brisk back, Guo Shouyun smiled with a hint of sigh: "The world of children is always enviable. ”

"It's a pity that this carefree time has long been far away from us!" Okuguanhai nodded.

The sense of mutual recognition made the two look at each other and smile, "Go and sit in the living room!"

"Good!"

"Michelle knows you're coming, specially prepared black tea, taste how it tastes. ”

"Hmm, why is there a faint sweetness?"

"I checked your Chinese tea drinking habits, so I added three red dates to the tea!"

"No wonder... Tastes good. ”

After a few drinks, the two of them said, "How many days will you stay in Chicago this time?"

"Three days, after the recording of "Oprah Talk Show", I'm going to fly to Hawaii to attend a friend's wedding!"

"Rowling?"

"How do you know?"

"What's there to ask about this, there are not many newspaper reports about your relationship, but there are no less!"

After nodding his head clearly, "Belak, if you are interested, I can introduce you to each other!"

"Is that okay?"

A happy smile appeared on Ao Guanhai's face. For someone like him who is interested in politics, he wants to make friends with influential public figures like Rowling.

"Of course!"

"I'll be with Michelle to prepare a sumptuous dinner for you!"

"Then it's decided!"

Ao Guanhai smiled and nodded.

After staying at his home for dinner, Guo Shouyun arrived at Chicago O'Hare International Airport the next day, as the world's only dual-hub airport, it carried more than 60 million passengers, ranking fourth behind Kennedy International Airport, Los Angeles International Airport and Miami International Airport.

At the exit of the airport, Guo Shouyun, who was dressed in a blue suit and holding a rose in his arms, was particularly eye-catching. However, in order to avoid being recognized, and thus causing unnecessary trouble, he wore a dark brown toad glasses on his face.

After hearing that the familiar flight had landed, Guo Shouyun straightened his clothes and looked towards the entrance of the passage with eager eyes. About five or six minutes later, an incomparably familiar figure appeared in front of his eyes.
