28th Floor, Bank of China Building, Tinder Source Heung Kong Representative Office.

"You mean, there is a bubble on the NASDAQ, so you want to short the NASDAQ?" Jiang Ping pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, with a slight surprise in his tone.

Goryeo, Xiangjiang, Rakshasa, plus Nikkei, which is shorting, has several big businesses in a row, and Jiang has shared the bonus equally, which is enough to exceed 99.9% of the people on this planet.

But judging by his appearance, no one would believe that the slightly wooden nerd in front of him was a multimillionaire.

No, it's several multi-millionaires.

Or dollars.

If Jiang Ping's dress is just rustic and doesn't look like a successful person, then Michael Barry, who is sitting opposite him in a T-shirt and sandals, is the only outlier in this skyscraper.

This is Central, the Bank of China Building, the core CBD of Xiangjiang, and the Oriental Wall Street that countless people in Xiangjiang dream of.

No matter how hot the weather is, the men who come and go in and out of HSBC, Bank of China, and Hongkong Land are always in suits and leather shoes, and almost all of the higher-level ones are equipped with three-piece suits, and Michael Barry is dressed like a catfish that doesn't fit in a sardine canning truck, which is eye-catching.

"I mean, the Nasdaq is building a bubble, and I need a team of three to put together some data on the Nasdaq, and maybe that's a big opportunity. Michael Barry moved his intact right eye and spoke in a calm tone, as if he were talking about a trivial matter.

Jiang Ping and Michael Barry have been partners for so long and are already familiar with each other's styles: "There is all the information you need on the Bloomberg terminal. ”

"I don't want information about the Bloomberg terminal, which only has data on listed companies, but I want data on companies that are ready to go public or fail to go public. Michael Barry whispered, "Have you ever looked at the foam when you took a shower? The top foam is the largest, and the further down it goes, the smaller the foam is, but the denser it is." The thicker the foam, the faster the foam on the surface bursts, and you listen, this 'popping' sound is the sound of the bubble bursting. ”

Jiang Ping listened sideways for a long time, but he didn't hear any crackling sound, and shrugged his shoulders: "You must know that Zack's main investment direction is NASDAQ, and if you want to short it, Zack will not agree." Moreover, the trillion-dollar market value of the NASDAQ is not something that we can do with this little strength. ”

"He would. "I'm not trying to make the bubble burst, but I'm judging that the bubble will burst, and Zack won't disagree as long as he's not carried away by the Nasdaq's rise." ”

"You'd better talk to him. Compared with Michael Barry, Jiang Ping is obviously more sophisticated as a Chinese.

"Okay. Michael Barry's prosthetic eye moved, picked up the phone, and dialed a few numbers.

————————————

"OK, I told him. Michael Barry hung up the phone and said to Jiang Ping with an expressionless face.

Jiang Ping looked expectant: "What did he say?"

Michael Barry said calmly: "Before you bake the bread, preheat the oven. ”

"Toasting?" Jiang Ping blinked, "He's baking bread?"

Apparently, he did not object. Michael Barry shrugged.

"Did you really tell him?" Jiang Ping looked at him suspiciously.

"Of course. Michael Barry said bluntly, "You know, I never lie. ”

——————————————

Zhang Chen was obviously not baking bread, in fact, he felt like bread in the oven now.

When the lights in the studio were aimed at Zhang Chen, Zhang Chen only felt that the oil on his face was about to be roasted.

Zhang Chen hurriedly hung up the phone, and his eyes returned to the stage, where a middle-aged black woman was interacting warmly with the audience.

"We've just had a lot of conversations with our friends on the floor, and before Judy talked about the history of the Chinese Exclusion Act, frankly, I always thought that only black people in the United States were treated unequally. But the fact that, until 30 years ago, the Chinese were still legally discriminated against as a minority, which is astonishing. Today, there have been countless Chinese Americans who have achieved success in the United States, especially in the high-tech industry, and there have been many Asian-American billionaires in recent years, and they are all very young, such as Yahoo's Jerry Yang, who is only 30 years old this year, but his personal wealth is more than 1.5 billion dollars。。。。。。 Well, that's right, it's 1.5 billion, wow, that's a lot. ”

"However, Jerry Yang is not the wealthiest and youngest of the Chinese Americans, uh... It was as if someone had already called out his name, yes, Zack Chang, the founder of Matrix, a billionaire who was less than twenty years old. In addition, he also participated in the petition to demand an apology from Congress for the Chinese Exclusion Act. Below, welcome Zack!"

Zhang Chen stood up from the audience, walked to the stage amid the cheers of the audience, waved his hand to the audience, and the audience let out a burst of screams and cheers.

Today, in the United States and around the world, there are really many young people who have become fans of Zhang Chen, and surprisingly, the ratio of men to women in fans is almost 50:50, and the share of female supporters may be a little higher. Therefore, as soon as Zhang Chen appeared, many viewers at the scene screamed.

"Thank you, thank you, Oprah, thank you very much. Zhang Chen smiled and hugged the black woman.

This black woman, none other than the most popular talk show host in American history, the most influential woman in the world, and the owner of the Harp Entertainment Group - Oprah Winfrey.

As a talk show host, Oprah's influence in the United States is unmatched, and some people even say that if Oprah comes out to run for president, he may get a higher approval rating than Clinton.

Almost all of Oprah's success as a black woman comes from the gold medal show she created, "The Oprah Winfrey Talk Show."

Since the '80s, this talk show has become the number one TV show in the United States. Oprah used her warm attitude to guide the guests to tell their own stories and arouse the empathy of the audience. Among these guests, there are not only big-name celebrities, but also politicians and businessmen, and more are ordinary ordinary people.

Zhang Chen naturally can't be classified as an ordinary guest now, and after a few words of greeting Oprah, he sat on the sofa next to Oprah and started a conversation with the most famous woman in the world.

"Zack, when you were on the pitch, I was thinking, if I hadn't had a child at 14 who hadn't died, even older than you are, I know you definitely don't like people talking too much about your age, but it's really surprising. Oprah's tone was eloquent, and it sounded very comfortable.

"Thank you. Zhang Chen nodded politely, "I don't hate people talking about my age, as long as I don't just talk about age." In fact, age does represent a lot of things, and this is a fact, and we don't need to deliberately oppose it, just as the Chinese Exclusion Act is a fact that no one can deny. ”

Oprah smiled: "I'm sure many viewers are like me, it's very strange that you are very successful now, why do you still support, no, I should say lead the Chinese on the West Coast to ask Congress to introduce an apology bill." As far as I know, neither you nor your grandparents and relatives have been persecuted under the Chinese Exclusion Act, what made you make this decision?"

Zhang Chen smiled slightly: "There is only one reason, I am also Chinese." ”
