The long-awaited God of Gamblers Cup kicked off.

On this day, it can be said that the rich gathered, after all, this grand event was presided over by the Ye family, and there was a Jockey Club standing behind him. Not to mention those who received an invitation, who did not receive an invitation, many businessmen are trying to get on the ship.

The sky is blue and cloudless, making it a great day to go out to sea.

The pier is constantly crowded, and it is the same as when it opened last year. However, the difference is that this time there are more foreigners, who are dressed up and attracted by this event.

As a representative of Japan, Chiyoko Yamaguchi is among them, and today she wears a cheongsam, a traditional Japanese costume, which makes her look a little more squeamish, and when she appears on the deck, it attracts many eyeballs.

Chiyoko Yamaguchi is actually not a woman who likes to be in the limelight, but no matter her appearance or the identity she represents, she is destined to become the protagonist today. Facing the gazes of others, she could only move forward.

"Hello! I'm Ye Hui, Miss Chiyoko, please here! ”

Ye Hui is dressed up in a regular manner today, less fancy, and more steady. This time, he helped entertain these seed contestants as the grandson of the Ye family, and now looking at this Japanese girl with a bumpy body made him feel a lot more energetic.

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he would have launched an offensive here.

"Oh hah!"

Chiyoko followed Japanese etiquette and also gave him a treat.

"Oh hah!"

Ye Hui followed, and then with a flattering smile, he bowed down and led to the yacht. It's just that his eyes haven't left Chiyoko, and he doesn't look like the grandson of the Ye family now, but like a dogleg.

The employees who were helping on the side couldn't help but turn their faces sideways at this time. It's a shame.

This time, the Ye family invited a total of eight seeded players. In addition to Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Russia, and the United States are home to the world's elites.

And there are a lot of beauties, this Chiyoko is one, and Erya is naturally even more one. Surprisingly, the seeded contestant from Russia is also a blonde beauty. But fortunately, the other representatives are all men, which slightly saves some of the man's face.

And in the latest odds on the periphery, these three beauties are not favored. In fact, according to Ye Politics, this is also very easy to understand, after all, no one knows if it will happen that they will come in the next few days. This makes you feel emotional, how can you gamble calmly?

On both sides of the deck. There are a lot of yachts docked. Some are waiting for the arrival of their masters, some are ready to go, and some are not in a hurry to leave. Among them, a yacht printed with three big red characters of "Changsheng" is leisurely continuing to dock.

Niu Changsheng is short and fat, nearly fifty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a Chinese face, and likes to wear a pair of black-framed sunglasses. This is not when laughing. It looks a little elegant, but laughs. His face was full of flesh and looked very treacherous.

In essence, the latter seems to be more suitable for him, because he is a well-known fox in the stock market.

He was sitting on the couch on the top floor of the yacht with a glass of red wine, his eyes watching the people passing by the deck. Especially the seeded players who participated in the competition. He is a very observant person because his eyes are different from ordinary people.

Although he is now worth a lot of money and has squeezed into a small circle in the upper class, what is puzzling is that he is the representative of Hong Kong today. Participated in this God of Gamblers Cup. The world is very wonderful, a person who has mastered tens of billions of enterprises has come to participate in this God of Gamblers Cup.

However, it may have something to do with his upbringing!

Unlike many rich people, in fact, Niu Changsheng started with gambling, and he was invincible in the casino back then. It was only later, after his fame became famous, he was blacklisted by major casinos in Macau, and he had to enter the Hong Kong stock market and fight here.

The stock market is not too different from a casino, and the Hong Kong stock market was actually a focus for gamblers at the beginning.

In 1964, the Hang Seng Index was established with a starting point of 100.

In 1967, there was a major riot in Hong Kong, which continued to fall for three years, closing at a low of 58 points.

In 1969, land was allowed to be sold, which led to a positive stock market, and real estate companies became the leading sector, starting the first big bull market.

In 1973, led by real estate stocks, the index rose more than 17 times from 107 to 1,775 points in the past four years.

In 1974, the first oil crisis broke out and the Hang Seng Index fell to 150 points.

……

It's just that after decades of development, influenced by the Western concept of value investing, and allowing investors from other countries to enter, it has now slowly become a value investment-led stock market. But this is not to say that the Hong Kong stock market is not a casino, but that its nature has become weaker.

This is true not only in Hong Kong, but also in the history of the stock market of other countries.

Take the U.S. stock market, which is the best performing global market, for example, when there was a major crash in the U.S. stock market. In the four years from 1929 to 1933, the Dow fell 90% to close at 41.88 points.

No one can be sure if there will be another 90% drop that will make your fortune evaporate by 90% in an instant.

Of course, the odds of that have become much smaller because more and more people are willing to leave their money to institutions. And these institutions know that speculating by gambling will not help them attract more investors, so they all aim to make steady profits.

Today's U.S. stock market, the biggest success has been the shift from retail investors to institutional investors, with institutions accounting for 80% of the capital. As a result, the existence space of gamblers is greatly eliminated, and fluctuations are driven by rationality.

On the other hand, in China, institutions account for only 20%, and if this situation does not change, the stock market will still be a speculative market and a paradise for gamblers.

This time, Niu Changsheng naturally didn't come for that money, in addition to wanting to confirm his name as a gambling god, he also wanted to befriend the Ye family.

The land acquisition plan in the New Territories is going very smoothly, and all the so-called nail households have been solved by him. These methods are naturally bright and dark, the bright one is to lure them to play stocks, and then let them fall into the trap they have set, but the dark ones need the help of the quadrangle.

As long as the approval of the project is in hand, he will become an upstart in the Hong Kong real estate industry, and if he can be recognized by the Ye family, then he will be able to truly enter the top rich circle. He has seen through it, here in Hong Kong, owning land can improve status. (To be continued.) )
