Chapter 481: Goryeo (Double 11, chopping hands, only one change。。。。。 )
There is no doubt that Michael Barry is a genius, and a genius of geniuses.
But the fate of geniuses is often not very good.
In addition to mild Asberg syndrome, Michael Barry lost his left eye to cancer when he was five years old, so he has a fake glass eyeball in his left eye socket.
Because of this, since he was sensible, he grew up in the ridicule of his peers, whether it was sports or studying, no matter what kind of achievements he achieved, what awaited him was always ridicule and indifference.
"The Monster with Glass Eyes", "Frankenstein", "Doctor Octopus", 。。。。。。 These insulting nicknames became the everyday name for him, making Michael Barry, who was already slightly autistic, even less like to deal with people.
The Internet and numbers have become his best friends, since the second grade of primary school, he has been exposed to stocks, and as he grew older, he put more interests into the field of securities, futures, and foreign exchange. After having the Internet, he was even more like a fish in water, established his own personal website on the Internet, and began to become famous on many BBSs that discussed financial management.
Even so, he never thought that one day he would make a living from it. He studied medicine at his parents' wishes and is now working as a trainee doctor at Stanford Hospital, a job he doesn't like, but that's not how life is.
But now, there seems to be one more choice in life, and this path seems to be more interesting?
Michael Barry was a little excited, took out a tissue, and wiped the secretion from his left eye, "Okay, I want to know, who else is on our team, I can't be your only pawn in this zero-sum game, right?"
Zhang Chen waved his finger: "No, no, Michael, never say who is whose pawn, I don't like this description very much." It would be arrogant to describe yourself as a chess player and think that you can manipulate the fate of others. When people lose self-awareness, they are not far from failure. ”
Michael Barry shrugged: "Okay, I'll put it another way, who works with me? How many more people like me?"
Zhang Chen said lightly: "You don't need to know who it is, your contact is all through the Internet, each person will be assigned a floating ID, and double verification is required, everyone's tasks are different, and they need to cooperate with each other." You also don't need to worry about life and safety, we will equip you with a life assistant and two work assistants as well as two security guards who will be available 24 hours a day to ensure any of your needs until the project is completed. ”
Michael Barry's eyes were straight in his eyes: "This should not include going out in any need, right?"
Zhang Chen smiled and didn't deny it.
Michael Barry understands that the so-called life assistants and security personnel are actually monitors for themselves, but he has no opinion on this, and if Zhang Chen does not do this, his evaluation of Zhang Chen will be reduced by a few points.
Michael Barry thought for a moment, "So, I'm working for Tinder?"
Zhang Chen shook his head and said: "No, you work for your own Scion fund, Tinder will buy your Scion fund through other companies, one million dollars, I don't want Tinder or my name to have anything to do with this shorting." ”
Michael Barry smiled stiffly: "So generous, my fund only has a total of $150,000 in assets, I want to know, in addition to the $850,000 premium, what else can I get?"
Zhang Chen looked into Michael Barry's eyes: "3% of the profit you handled." ”
The pupil of Michael Barry's right eye shrank, the total investment of 500 million US dollars, ten times the leverage, even if Zhang Chen, a trader like himself, found five, he could get 100 million US dollars in funds, plus leverage。。。。。。 Michael Barry suddenly felt some excitement in his heart.
"When do I start working, and where?" said Michael Barry, still with that blank expression, but the burning eagerness in his eyes couldn't hide it.
Zhang Chen pointed into the distance: "Now, the location is here." See that villa? That's where you've been living and working for the past two months. Although we do not restrict your personal freedom, please try not to leave the 500-metre radius of the villa. With that, Zhang Chen clapped his hands, and a young Asian girl appeared in front of Michael Barry.
Zhang Chen introduced: "This is your life assistant Miss Chen, and she will take you to meet with the team members who serve you in a moment. ”
Michael Barry looked at the lonely villa standing in the distance, the whole villa was two floors, there was no second building within a radius of 100 meters, the terrain was flat and open, and if anyone met in private outside, it would be very conspicuous.
Miss Chen smiled and stretched out her right hand to Michael Barry: "Mr. Barry, in the next two months, please take care of me, you can call me Cathy." ”
Michael Barry lowered his head, his eyes didn't dare to look at each other, and he hesitated for a few seconds before he reached out and shook Miss Chen symbolically, Zhang Chen couldn't help but chuckle twice when he saw it.
Michael Barry didn't have any thoughts about this Asian girl, but he never knew how to deal with women, growing up, his closest contact with him was his mother, and contact with strangers, especially strange girls, was far more difficult for him than predicting which stock would rise.
Xiao Lele stepped forward and whispered something to Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen smiled at Michael Barry: "That's it for today, if you have any questions, you can contact me through Miss Chen." ”
Michael Barry said calmly: "All I need is a quiet room and a set of Bosch stereos and all the albums of the Gunslingers. ”
Miss Chen smiled slightly: "Before the sun sets, these things will be delivered to your room." ”
Michael Barry was silent for a moment, shook hands with Zhang Chen, and followed Miss Chen to get into the battery car and walk towards the villa.
Zhang Chen watched Michael Barry leave, and casually asked Xiao Lele, "Who did LG send?"
Xiao Lele looked at the memo: "He Xunhuai, director of sales and product planning of LG Display Company." ”
Zhang Chen said twice: "You tell him that I came to Jeju Island this time just for vacation and will not receive any supplier representatives." ”
Xiao Lele answered yes in a low voice and turned to leave.
Zhang Chen stood on the green, looked at the hole more than a dozen yards away, pulled out a putt from the bag, his feet slightly apart, held his breath, the club knocked lightly on the white ball, and the ball quickly rolled towards the hole.
"Boom!" the ball stopped at the hole and eventually fell into the hole.
"Huh. Zhang Chen showed a smile, "LG, Samsung, I hope that after two months, you can still maintain such a bullish attitude." ”
"Thank you for your hospitality, Miss Xiao, please extend my sincere greetings to President Zhang on my behalf, LG Display is very sincere in cooperating with Matrix, please be sure to convey it to President on my behalf. He Xunhuai bowed slightly and bowed to Xiao Lele to say goodbye.
LG, one of the largest CRT manufacturers in Korea, is actively expanding into overseas markets, but it is difficult to enter the consumer market because Korean products are synonymous with cheap products in the European and American markets.
LG and Samsung and other Korean companies will not be dispelled by this small difficulty, they invariably set their sights on the OEM part of the business, by undertaking foreign orders, their products are exported to Europe and the United States, and gradually expand their popularity and recognition, and then enter the consumer field.
To say that the hottest PC product now, there is no one more than Matrix's iCom, in less than two months, the cumulative sales and pre-orders have exceeded 100,000 units, it is foreseeable that in this fiscal year, iCom will sell at least more than 600,000 units, which is a big cake for any high-resolution display manufacturer.
After Zhang Chen's private jet arrived on Jeju Island, it naturally attracted the attention of the news media, and when the media found out that this young rich man who had already made a name for himself in the United States had come to Jeju Island, they all reported the news.
Not only Samsung and LG, but also many Korean companies sent representatives to Jeju Island to visit Jang Chen, but in addition to playing golf with MP Lee Myung-bak under Barbara's introduction, Jang Chen only met the third generation of Hyundai Group, Jung Joo-yong's grandson and Jung Mong-koo's son, Jung Eui-sun, under the recommendation of Lee Myung-bak.
Lee Myung-bak was born in the Hyundai Group and served as the president of Hyundai, but in recent years he has just given up business to enter politics and was elected to the National Assembly.
Samsung and LG each sent only the middle and senior management of their subsidiaries to visit, which was purely out of arrogance.
With a per capita GDP of more than $10,000, Korea has entered the ranks of developed countries, and last year, it joined the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and its national pride and national pride are at an all-time high. Samsung and LG have become the two largest companies in the whole of Goryeo, and they are also super large enterprises within the top 100 of the world's top 500, with an annual turnover of more than 30 billion US dollars, while Matrix, even if it is hot, an annual turnover of more than one billion US dollars is already a very optimistic expectation, and the two sides are not on the same level at all.
The most important thing is that Zhang Chen is a Chinese.
The entire nineties was an era in which Goryeo looked down on China the most. For thousands of years, Goryeo, which was a vassal of China, saw the decline and poverty of the suzerainty that it once followed and worshipped, and felt that its thousands of years of humiliation had been washed away, and the theory of the superiority of the Korean race was popular in Goryeo.
But not every Korean is hot-headed, and He Xunhuai is one of the more sober ones. After being rejected by Jang Chen, he immediately called his boss, Kim Woo-nam, the president of LG Display, when he returned to the hotel, hoping that Kim Woo-nam would come to Jeju to visit Jang Chen in person.
"President, please think again. Ha Hoon-hye pleaded with Kim Woo-nam on the phone in a earnest tone, "Matrix's order will play a very important role in opening up the U.S. market." ”
"Well, no more. Jin Yunan impatiently refused on the phone: "I got their order, I will give him a chance to meet, so be it, please continue to work hard!"
Ha Xunhuai listened to the busy tone on the phone and sighed helplessly.
Tomorrow is a normal double shift
