Chapter Seventy-Six: Divergent Paths

PS: I accompanied my daughter to the hospital to see the growth department today, so I came home very late...... 4000+ in this chapter;

Updating "Overlord of the Mediterranean" tonight, it's been dragging on for days, sorry......

+++++++++++++

Dust to dust, dust to dust......

No matter how reluctant they were, no matter how many people cursed, the mung bean contracts with a total position of hundreds of thousands of lots completed the process in the form of liquidation after the 118 liquidation hedge, and all the funds were returned in the form of liquidation.

The liquidation sequence includes Chang Tianhao's speculative funds of 54.37 million, Gao Yang's residual assets of 680,000, as well as the speculative capital of Feng Yimou and Han Jun, and the financial and credit funds used by the Nanyang Gang.

Some cheered, some excited, some sad, some painful, some reassured, some worried...... All the ups and downs exploded in an instant.

There are the earliest shorts like Feng Yimou, who first float losses, then turn losses, and then make small profits;

There are speculative bears like Chang Tianhao, who first suffered small losses, then made big profits, and then fled victoriously at the last moment before the forced liquidation;

There are speculative bulls like Han Jun, who first make big profits, then balance, and then big losses;

There are main bulls like the Nanyang Gang, who first make a profit, then lose a lot, and then use the policy to fish themselves out - some new bulls who finally opened a position actually made money by using the information insider;

Of course, it is indispensable to be a dead bull like Gao Yang, who is increasing the weight layer by layer and constantly copying the bottom, and the last chicken feather......

After the notice, there are also speculators of several major futures companies in the Pentagon Market with complicated mentality, Wang Huiling said that day "preserving the revolutionary power" and "the spark can start a prairie fire" routine, they were still a little strange, after seeing the announcement at night, they knew what it meant behind it, and it was even more shocking - the advantage of discourse power began to be established;

The CEOs of the futures business department who refused to bear the margin were full of bitterness: they knew that the underwriting only took one weekend, and they would do everything they could.

It's a pity you didn't;

So, the customer also ran.

When they reluctantly called over to try to redeem it, Wang Huiling still had her signature smile: "Okay, okay, next time I have the opportunity to continue to cooperate......"

The words "next time" and "chance" are almost synonymous with infinite procrastination.

Wang Huiling didn't take them to heart, after she left 20 million operating assets in Dadi Futures, she began to operate the remaining 34 million according to Chang Tianhao's instructions.

On January 19, she signed a purchase contract with the developer, and 5 sets of Dingsheng apartment properties and 1 set of Miyun Garden were directly bought, because there were 5 additional parking spaces and 2 garages, so the price rose to 1.14 million, which was extremely cheap compared to the sky-high price in later generations.

Among the 5 sets of Dingsheng apartments, there are 2 sets of three-bedroom and one-living room large apartments, and 3 sets of two-bedroom and one-living room medium apartments, the former has a set of arrangements for her to live, and the back 3 sets are ready to be arranged for employees represented by Ning Zhiyuan and other employees to move in. She has one room for each person and one room for everyone else – which is in line with the company's executive level standards.

Regarding the question of who else lives in Miyun Garden, Chang Tianhao did not explain, and she did not continue to ask, but contacted the decoration company according to Chang Tianhao's idea to prepare to start construction - although the migrant workers are ready to go home at the end of the year, but Tongtian Technology, a big customer, the decoration company does not dare to offend, patting his chest and promising to start work immediately, even if other companies stop work, even if the workers are paid more, they must ensure the progress of construction.

Because Wang Huiling also drew a big pie for them: they also wanted them to contract the renovation project of the entire building.

After many negotiations and Chang Tianhao's repeated deliberations, on January 20, Wang Huiling signed an installment purchase contract with the developer on behalf of Tongtian Technology, buying all the remaining units and parking spaces of the entire building, with a package price of 21 million in one go.

The whole contract stipulates that the payment will be made in three installments: the first installment will be delivered within 3 days after the contract is signed, the second installment will be delivered 9 million before the end of August this year, and the third installment will be paid before the end of March next year. Of course, there is no possibility of the developer defaulting, because after the first installment of the contract is signed, it will have to cooperate with the completion of all the property certificates and change the name to Tongtian Building, and it is agreed that it will be completed before the Chinese New Year.

The developer breathed a sigh of relief and finally achieved the return of funds before the Chinese New Year.

Chang Tianhao also breathed a sigh of relief, because from historical experience, after this year, Shanghai's real estate will come out of the recession and enter the upward stage. He bought the entire Tongtian Building for less than 30 million, and after a few years, these assets are worth at least 500 million!

More importantly, after the purchase of this asset together with a large number of decoration costs, most of the profits he obtained from using the company's account in mung bean speculation will be written off by deed tax, decoration fees and depreciation of fixed assets, which perfectly achieves the goal of tax planning, and the achievement of installment payment will not test too much in cash flow, after all, there are few companies in Shanghai that can have more than 50 million pure cash.

What made Wang Huiling even happier was that after learning the news that the agreement had been signed, Chang Tianhao suddenly said: "Linda, don't worry about who lives in Miyun Flower Garden, because I won't live there soon." ”

She paused, not knowing why he had said that.

"Miyun Huayuan began to have more people, and the community became noisy, I like to be quiet, and I want to buy a villa......"

"Now there are more than 1 million villas, should you buy a set according to your worth, do you have the intention of targeting?"

"Last time I saw an advertisement, it said that there was a villa on the edge of Lu Xun Park that was built and sold...... It seems to be called a sweet villa, close to the park, the scenery is good and quiet, and you may be able to walk and exercise at night......," Chang Tianhao sighed, "I haven't exercised much in the past six months, and my diet and work and rest are not regular, so I obviously feel fat." ”

"Fat? Why didn't I see it......"

"I'm really fat, at least 3 pounds heavier, and the whole person has become greasy, without the vitality of freshmen, other students have lost weight when they come to Shanghai, only I am fat......" Chang Tianhao lamented, "Fortunately, the basic hairline is still relatively stable." ”

Wang Huiling covered her mouth and laughed: Only then did she remember that Chang Tianhao was only a freshman, and she had always been a doctor of the other party's age, no wonder.

"I found that you are very enthusiastic about buying real estate, according to my understanding and knowledge, people who generally like to speculate in futures and stocks, rarely buy real estate in a big way, they feel that the appreciation is too slow, and they want to use every copper plate to the limit......"

Chang Tianhao nodded: "This is going to be a problem, asset diversification is a necessary way to reduce risks, you see that I am now going with the troika of real estate, companies, and speculation, so that once one of them goes wrong, there is still room for salvation." I'm telling you that the capsizing is really not a joke, if we do something wrong this time, we will be liquidated, and the accounts will be lost. At least I have an office building and a house in my hands to make a comeback...... If I put all my liquid assets into my account, I would be poor.

I think that the money you make in speculation is always just a number and not you until it leaves the market...... Only when you leave the market can the money really belong to you. The money lying on the account is really just a number...... You know why I'm advocating for holding some cash, and even having that much upfront money in New World City, there's essentially a hedge against the risk.

I can't avoid it when people are confused, and I hope that one day if I am scarred by the market, I can have a last respite. ”

Wang Huiling nodded: "No wonder there are some old investors in our sales department, after making money, they must take 10% of the cash out and spend it, I originally thought it was just a pressure release, but now I understand ......"

"Am I cowardly?

Wang Huiling smiled: "You said that investing in this road is not about who earns more, but about living longer than whom...... Even if you clear your speculative accounts now, you can rely on fixed assets to make a comeback again. That's why I don't think you're like a freshman, and your sophistication and composure can only catch up with people in their 40s or even 50s.

What you said, whether it is the helmsman who sails on the sea or the spark that can start a prairie fire, is what the old comrades talk about, and I finally understand the usefulness of your cabinet of history books......"

He let out a long sigh of relief: "The exam is finally over, and tomorrow the winter vacation will officially begin, I will go home with Cheng Cheng, and then I will deal with the company's affairs." ”

"There you go...... I'll keep an eye on both the company and the stock. In the past two days, at least 3 million goods have been received, and even Yi'an Technology has received 1 million - very easy. ”

On Friday, January 22, Chang Tianhao went to Caida, but the situation seems to have changed a little.

He happily told Cheng Cheng about the company and speculation, hoping to let her share the joy as well: "I made a lot of money this time...... I even inquired about the relationship between the Shanghai Chess Academy, and tried to reach an agreement with some national players, asking them to endorse, log in and play chess with chess fans, we are later than Lianzhong online, but our capital strength and road are broader than them;

I also plan to convert the second floor of the Babel Tower into an Internet café, on the one hand, to provide a place for the use and testing of my company's software, and on the other hand, to start the internal testing of the game, attracting students from the surrounding three schools.

I also basically have an eyebrow for the fourth project, to make a real action-based interactive online game, which can be Journey to the West or the Three Kingdoms...... At the same time, I am also thinking about seeing if I can introduce Korean online games as agents, they are more developed than us, and they are ...... than us."

He talked for 20 minutes, and Cheng Cheng listened without saying a word, with a smile on his face, but his brows furrowed slightly.

Chang Tianhao stopped his mouth and asked with concern, "Are you uncomfortable?"

"I didn't ......," she said softly, "you're thinking, how long has it been since you've talked to me about a new book, how long has it been since you've discussed your academic experience with me, and when was it that you were able to complete a night of self-study with me?"

He couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and muttered, "I've been so busy lately, it's really ......"

She sighed: "As the best debater in SME, you actually gave up participating in the training of the school's debate team; you are very eloquent, but I haven't heard you talk about participating in speech competitions and other activities, and you haven't even written any papers this semester......"

"Those are too time-consuming and energy-intensive. Chang Tianhao said, "Even a few course papers were written in a hurry. ”

"Your mind is not on your studies...... Tianhao. She raised her head and looked at him, her eyes a little dark, "My father said that you are very talented in academics, even if you are not a historian, it is okay to be an economist." ”

"I ......," he vaguely sensed that something wasn't quite right.

"Every time you see me, tell me how much money you make and what you want to buy me...... "Actually, I don't care how much money you make, when I met you, I never thought about how much money you would make......"

"I just. ”

"You have a bunch of books in your office, but I noticed that there is a layer of dust on them, and I guess you haven't read much of it...... Two days ago, I was talking to you about Jurisprudence, but you remained silent, and your thinking activity dropped significantly. You're all about investing and business right now, or you're just buying, buying, buying...... Tianhao, I'm not saying you're shallow, you know more than any of my peers I've met, but I'm so worried about your trend......"

He barely squeezed out a smile: "What are you worried about me?

She shook her head: "I'm worried that you'll lose your ......"

"No, Cheng Cheng, you're too worried, I'm here for ......"

Cheng Yushi gently rested his head on Chang Tianhao's shoulder, and he paused for a moment, as if this was the first time Cheng Yushi took the initiative to take such a posture.

"I remember you told me that one day we'll be the kind of people we ever hated the most, wouldn't you?"

"Change will definitely change a little, and I will try not to forget my original intention. He stroked her hair gently, "Don't worry about me, I won't study Americans, drop out of school and start a business, I will still try my best to finish my studies and go to the United States to study for a doctorate......"

She suddenly fell into his arms and sobbed, "Tianhao, can you come back from business?" I still want to see you, the humorous, funny, and knowledgeable Master Chang, instead of ...... Chang Zong. ”

"Boom", Chang Tianhao's face turned pale.

"I know that you have made tens of millions of dollars, which will not be spent in a few lifetimes, and among so many people in the country, I don't think it is a big problem for you to rank in the top 500...... I really don't have much desire for money, and even you don't have to give up investing, in your words, quietly buy some stocks and houses, let him grow up for 20 years, and let it grow naturally......" She said softly, "I still like to see you do academics, I still like you before, you now, make me feel strange, make me feel scared, make me feel lonely......"

"Cheng Cheng, it's not like this, I think it can be taken care of. ”

"Do you have both? You yourself said that you can't use one mind for two purposes. When you said that life was compelled, I believe ......" Cheng Yushi said quietly, "Is it still forced by life now?"

"I just want to ......" Chang Tianhao was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say.

What do you think?

Become the richest man in China?

Become the richest man in the world?

Is this really your goal?

His face turned pale and he didn't know what to say.

"The first lesson you taught me was 'Academics as a Career,' but now you've put academics to the end......," she sighed, "and you're going too fast for me to keep up with you...... My mind and my soul can't keep up with you, can you wait for me, or...... You're going to give me some time to think calmly?"

Chang Tianhao staggered to his feet, he understood, this is a wrong path.

Cheng Yushi stood up and burst into tears: "Tianhao, hug me......"

He stood up mechanically and hugged her tightly.

She cried, but said firmly: "Let's think about it calmly...... You don't have to send me back during the winter vacation, I know you have to be busy in the company, and you don't have to come to see me often in the future, you can go and work on your own business......"

She didn't say anything about breaking up, but it did, just as the two of them never said anything like "are we okay together?" when they were together.

In winter, the two hugged each other affectionately.

Chang Tianhao had never hugged her so tightly, and he had never felt that the distance between the hearts of the two people was so far......

He left in despair, because he didn't know how to get it back, he needed to think about it, Cheng Yushi returned to the dormitory, looked at his departing back, buried his face in the quilt and cried loudly......
