Chapter 277: Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years

Thundershowers at the end of August were fierce and poured down as if they were about to extinguish the last flame of summer.

On the Binjiang Road around Lujiazui in Shanghai, many tourists and white-collar workers who get off work are drenched in soup by the sudden heavy rain, and at the same time, a colorful umbrella is quickly stretched out under the rain curtain, like a blooming mushroom.

At this moment, a convoy of black Cadillac RVs led the way through the rain, and the showers hit the hoods of the cars, splashing white waves like silky mist.

When the lengthened Cadillac passed, behind it was a black Benz of water.

One, two, three, four......

After the black benz passed, it was followed by a fleet of luxury cars composed of Rolls-Royce, Bentley and Maybach, which are very rare in China.

Such a picture naturally attracted countless amazing eyes, pedestrians holding umbrellas on the roadside, and office workers sheltering from the rain under the bus stop signs, all of them paid attention at this time.

"Wow, what kind of big man is coming to Shanghai?"

"I guess it's from a luxury car club. ”

"Pull it down, people's luxury car clubs are all supercars! I think it should be a wedding company to create momentum. ”

"How is it possible~ It's raining heavily to drive this kind of car out, and the head of the wedding company boss is watt?"

“……”

As the convoy faded away, the chatter came and went under the rain curtain.

At this time, in the rain of black elongated Mercedes, a group of former Wall Street financial geniuses are figuring out how to continue to make a fortune from the infamous subprime mortgage crisis.

"Although the U.S. housing market is now in a bloody situation, the commercial real estate market is still in a relatively sunny situation, with the default rate of commercial real estate loans in the last quarter was less than 5% in the current subprime loan payment delay and default rate of more than 40%;

Walsh's plan was clear: he wanted to lead Lehman, which was mired in subprime debt, out of the crisis by moving into the commercial mortgage bond market. ”

With a capital of just $250 million, you can acquire the Axton Trust with a market value of $20 billion, and Wales is not at the expense of Lehman's heart!"

"So what! He doesn't look at what time it is, when all the investment banks in the world are like frightened birds, he still dares to play leveraged buyouts, it's really looking for death!"

Yang Xin, who once participated in the operation of U.S. crude oil futures, is now the head of the international credit investment department of the French investment bank Talos, and manipulates hundreds of millions of dollars of funds every day.

Yang Xin tugged at the dark red tie around his neck, glanced at Guan Qiu, who was lying on the leather sofa, staring at the scenery outside the car window with his chin in his hand, and said, "Boss, what do you think about Lehman's affairs?"

"Ah, what?" Guan Qiu withdrew his gaze from the hazy rain and fog and turned his head to look at Yang Xin.

This young financial genius is still the same as always, always with the innocent smile of a big boy on his face, if he doesn't say it, I'm afraid no one will dare to believe that this man, who is just 35 years old this year, is already the head of the credit department of a large international investment bank.

Yang Xin thought for a while and said: "This newly established REI Global company is a commercial real estate company spun off by Lehman, mainly including office buildings, apartment buildings, hotels, industrial land, shopping malls, retail centers and so on.

Lehman proposed that the company could be worth at least $30 billion, but according to the assessment of a panel of experts from Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse, the actual value of the $30 billion asset was only 60%~65% of the book value, or even lower. So ......"

Guan Qiu lit a cigarette, took a few puffs silently, and then saw that Yang Xin was still looking at him expectantly, and couldn't help but smile: "Lehman will definitely not be able to save him, and he should soon follow in the footsteps of the new century." ”

Hearing Guan Qiu's affirmative words, Yang Xin's eyes widened suddenly, "Boss, what do you mean...... Lehman is really going to go bankrupt?"

Although he was unimpressed by Lehman's frequent big moves in recent times, no one dared to think that such a behemoth would fall.

You must know that Lehman Brothers has been founded for more than 150 years, not to mention their global influence, their combined assets are more than 600 billion US dollars, it is impossible to imagine how many people will be devastated by the bankruptcy of such a company?

"If the United States doesn't take action, it should be!"

Yang Xin laughed, "The U.S. government itself is now a piece of chicken feathers, how can it care about Lehman's life or death?"

Guan Qiu looked at the French plane tree leaves fluttering in the shower, and said, "Maybe~ But you have to believe that capitalists can do anything for the sake of profit." ”

Yang Xin understood Guan Qiu's words and said in surprise: "Do they still dare to go against the trend?"

"Why don't you dare? The Fed is a tool in the hands of those careerists on Wall Street, and they can borrow it at any time if necessary.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years.

No matter when the time comes, don't think you're in control, understand?"

Yang Xin nodded and didn't speak again.

I suddenly remembered a funny thing I saw on a domestic website.

While financial scholars, professors, and social activists in the United States say that the Fed is privately owned, China's domestic keyboard warriors are still insisting that the Fed is state-run.

……

While the two were chatting, the convoy had arrived at the door of the "Tianxiu Garden" hotel where they were staying.

Tianxiu Group has officially set foot in the high-end hotel industry, and its five-star hotel "Tianxiu Garden" has opened branches in 14 first-tier cities in China, including Xiangjiang and Haojiang.

At this time, the rain of the Garden Hotel took the people who stood in the dark to greet them, except for some familiar people such as Wu Xiangjun and Su Wenhai, most of the rest did not know each other.

After Guan Qiubu got out of the car, he said in unison: "Hello chairman!"

Guan Qiu stretched out his hand and pointed at Wu Xiangjun, who was looking at him with a smile at the back of the crowd, and then said with a smile: "Okay, let's disperse!"

After those unfamiliar faces dispersed one after another with expressions of admiration and excitement, Guan Qiu walked in front of Wu Xiangjun, who was wearing a black hip-wrapping professional uniform, looked up and down, and then hugged her without hesitation, smelling the faint fragrance of agarwood around her neck, and became smoky for a while.

After letting go of Wu Xiangjun, Guan Qiu hugged Su Wenhai again, and then entered the hotel lobby.

When he arrived in the room, the bath water had been put away, and Guan Qiu took off his clothes and walked into the bathtub sprinkled with rose petals.

Lie down, soak your body in 40° water, submerge until your chin, and listen to the piano tune flowing in the air with your eyes closed.

After taking a bath, the meal was ready, and Guan Qiu chatted with Wu Xiangjun about his parents' shortcomings while eating.

Soon Guan Qiu knew that Wu Xiangjun had a younger brother.

As for this younger brother, it is also a sin.

The old guy Wu Cripple recruited a new waiter last year, and he just turned 20 years old.

The girl looks quite marked, and she doesn't have to say anything about her face and figure, and the only drawback is that she can't speak, and she's a little mute.

Wu Cripple was very good to this mute girl, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and it didn't take a month for him to care about going to bed. That's not all, it also got people pregnant.

Dead wood in spring, old and old, Wu lame is not happy, now he is good to the dumb girl, he is afraid of melting in his mouth, and he is afraid of falling in his hand, even Wu Xiangjun is jealous.

Guan Qiu smiled: "It won't be a pick-up man, right?"

Wu Xiangjun said depressedly: "It shouldn't be." I asked the girl, the child is really my father's. ”

Guan Qiu said, "Let's do a paternity test." ”

"I know. ”
