Chapter 12: Wall Street, I'm Coming! (below)
The next day, when the citizens of Hong Kong were still asleep, Wang Tianyu boarded the plane to New York in a low-key manner, and Wu Luoyi was with him.
Originally, Wang Tianyu planned to go to New York alone, but Wu Luoyi was not at ease at all, so she also secretly applied for a visa, bought two air tickets, and boarded the plane with Wang Tianyu on the grounds of going to New York to study, Wang Tianyu didn't understand Wu Luoyi's thoughts, but he didn't stop it, because he knew that even if he stopped it this time, Wu Luoyi would still go to New York secretly, for Wu Luoyi, after so many days of getting along, he knew it very well, and he looked very weak on the outside, But the heart is very strong and persistent, once she decides something, no one can stop it, it seems to be comparable to his stubbornness, and he has no reason to stop her.
As soon as the two arrived in New York, they bought a villa in Manhattan, New York, and settled down.
Because of the time difference, it was late at night in the United States at this time, and Wang Tianyu gave up the idea of looking around. But because of the biological clock, Wang Tianyu was sleepy at this time, so he turned on his laptop, this is the first time he went online after the car accident, after Wang Tianyu opened the web page, subconsciously opened an ordinary social forum, entered a series of very complex passwords and just logged in, there are countless message windows flashing, these windows are sent by a woman called the little witch, Wang Tianyu saw the three words of the little witch, and suddenly had a faint smile on his face, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said secretly in his heart:" It looks like they're fine. ”
Wang Tianyu clicked on it and took a look, if it was an ordinary person, it was just some ordinary greetings and ordinary communication words, but Wang Tianyu knew the meaning at a glance, because he used to be the leader of the "demon", of course, he was still very familiar with the unique code words of the "demon" to transmit news, and the hundreds of code words began to be sent after the death of the "demon king", there was one every hour, and the meaning of those code words was similar, and the translation was roughly as follows: "Wang, where are you?" "King, what happened?" "Wang, are you alright? Please reply when you see a message" and so on.
"Tomorrow at five o'clock in the afternoon, at 48 Wall Street, see you - people in wheelchairs." Wang Tianyu replied to the little witch with a message in code, then thought about it and added a sentence at the end: "Deal with it after reading it." ”
Then, Wang Tianyu turned off the computer, he knew that the "demon" base was surrounded and suppressed by the United States and European armies, there must be something wrong with the "demon", and the status was not low, but fortunately, he rectified the "demon" as soon as he took over the "demon", because from the time he announced that he accepted all assassinations, he knew that some people were dissatisfied with him, and he had been guarding against those people, and he had always firmly grasped the most important things in his own hands, and even some of them didn't even know about his stepfather, of course, he was not guarding against his stepfather. Rather, when his stepfather handed over the "demon" to him, he no longer asked about the "demon".
But despite this, he still has to be careful, because he doesn't know how much the people who surround and suppress the "demons" know about the "demons", he is no longer the arrogant and conceited "demon king" he used to be, it is precisely because of his conceit that the entire "demon" is buried with him, and now he doesn't want the only remaining blood of the "demon" to be buried in his hands.
……
"Didi, Didi"
In a luxurious villa in Europe, a "Didi" sound woke up the sleeping woman, the woman was not unhappy at all, but got up very excitedly, quickly opened the laptop next to the bed, glanced at the information on it, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of her mouth, and said to herself: "Wang, the little witch knows that you are omnipotent, how can you die?" ”
After the woman finished speaking, she suddenly fell asleep, got up and put on floral clothes, packed her luggage, and flew to New York, USA, overnight.
……
The next day, Wang Tianyu came to Wall Street early in the morning, of course, Wu Luoyi, who helped him push a wheelchair, was indispensable behind him.
Wang Tianyu looked at Wall Street, which is no more than 700 meters long and only 11 meters wide, surrounded by ancient buildings and historical and cultural blocks, and the roads are like spider webs extending in all directions, and he couldn't help but say: "This is Wall Street!" ”
Wall Street is very small, but in a real sense, Wall Street is synonymous with the capital market and financial services industry in the United States and even the whole world.
At this time, it was the rush hour for work, looking at the office workers in suits and leather shoes, shuttling back and forth through the crowded Wall Street, and on the shrewd faces of each other, the wise eyes flashed a trace of greed from time to time, greed is not unique to Wall Street people, but it is magnified several times in them.
Wu Luoyi pushed Wang Tianyu through the crowd, perhaps influenced by these Wall Street financial people, he was also very excited, seeing Wall Street under his wheelchair, he couldn't help but raise his hands, raised his head to the sky and shouted: "Wall Street, I'm here!" ”
This shout immediately attracted the attention of countless people, but Wang Tianyu didn't care, this shout vented the long-suppressed emotions in his heart, and swore that he was proud and ambitious.
"This will be a new starting point in my life, this will be the place where my dream begins, and here I will start my new journey!" Wang Tianyu said to himself in his heart.
"Someday I'll literally have the whole Wall Street under my feet, and that day won't be too far off." When Wang Tianyu looked at the ancient buildings on both sides of Wall Street, he said to himself silently in his heart.
In fact, Wang Tianyu's choice of Wall Street to start his new journey was deliberate.
Because, Wang Tianyu knows that the killer is always disgraceful, and now his legs can no longer stand, and it is impossible to become a qualified killer. Since God has made him Wang Tianyu and has an upright identity, why don't you choose to stand on the world stage openly? And isn't it finance that I am studying? Why can't you apply what you've learned?
There are only three ways to make money in this world: the first is to make money with money, the second is to rely on wisdom, and the last is to rely on labor. And the first method is the easiest and fastest way to make money, because the first method allows people who make money on the second and third methods to make money for you.
Of course, there is a scientific basis for this, as the great Gatsby curve (Note 1) shows that the more unfair the society, the greater the impact of the income level of the parents on the income level of the next generation. This is also why the global polarization between the rich and the poor is becoming more and more serious, that is, the rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer. If we use the "rule of 28", it means that 80% of the world's wealth is in the hands of 20% of the people, or even less. The so-called "American dream" and "silk counterattack" may just be a sweet dream. This also shows that it is easier to make money by money, especially in the more unfair society, Wang Tianyu is rich now, and the current United States itself is an unfair society, so Wang Tianyu chose to use money to make money in the United States.
However, there are many kinds of money to make money, and the cycle of doing business is too long, while doing finance can be long or short, depending on the individual's personality, of course, the risks are not the same.
There is such a saying: if you love someone, let him go to Wall Street, because that's heaven; If you hate someone, let him go to Wall Street too, because that's hell. Therefore, for financial people, Wall Street can make you rich overnight, or it can make you have nothing overnight, and your wife is separated, which can really be described as a thought of heaven and a thought of hell.
Wang Tianyu kept looking at the ancient buildings and crowds around him, Wu Luoyi slowly pushed the wheelchair behind him very tacitly, and walked on Wall Street for more than 700 meters for half an hour.
When the two walked to the junction of Wall Street and Broadway, they looked up to see the old Trinity Church, which was already a landmark in the neighborhood when Wall Street was still a crumbling wall. With the New York Stock Exchange in front and the American Stock Exchange in the background, the Trinity Church is flanked by tall office buildings on the left and right, and only a small area around it still preserves the 17th-century garden and cemetery.
"Would you like to go in and have a look?" Wu Luoyi, who was behind him, looked at the Trinity Church and asked Wang Tianyu.
"Hmm," Wang Tianyu replied lightly.
Although it is not a holiday, there are really many people praying in the church, Wang Tianyu sat in a wheelchair, Wu Luoyi found a place near the aisle and sat down, and then, with his eyes closed, began to pray.
Wang Tianyu didn't believe this at all, but just looked at Wu Luoyi's serious appearance and kept shaking his head.
"What are you praying for?" Wang Tianyu asked after Wu Luoyi opened his eyes.
"A secret that can't be told." Wu Luoyi winked mischievously at Wang Tianyu and said mysteriously.
"Not to mention pulling down, I'm not uncommon." Wang Tianyu pretended not to care and said.
"I now know what it means not to eat grapes, and to say that grapes are sour." Wu Luoyi said in a very serious tone, but the smile in the corner of her eyes betrayed her.
"You're sarcastic about me, see how I clean you up." Wang Tianyu said and pushed the wheelchair to chase Wu Luoyi.
The two of them quarreled and walked out of the church, and Wu Luoyi went to the New York Stock Exchange at the request of Wang Tianyu, saying that the stock index is a barometer of the macroeconomy, but looking at the number of people in the stock exchange and securities companies, you can see the trend of the stock market. Just like the short skirt effect, judging the economic situation of a region according to the length of the skirt worn by the woman, the shorter the skirt, the more prosperous the economy, although the theory is not necessarily accurate, but there is some truth.
Note 1: If you are interested, you can take a look at the great Gatsby curve, which is in economic terms, I am afraid that it is too esoteric for readers to understand, so in layman's terms.
