Chapter 382: The End of a Hero (7)
"Do you think I'm behind all this?"
Standing on the top floor of IFC, Zhong Shi said lightly to Soros, "It was the elite investment bank that rejected you before, and then the customers who abandoned you for many years, I don't know what kind of tricks there are in the future, but it will definitely not be a good thing." And all of this, behind it is me operating? ”
This is the top of Hong Kong's skyscraper, a landmark, with a height of 415.8 meters. Here you can overlook the scenery of the entire Hong Kong Island. At this time, the night breeze is blowing, the bright lights are being lit one by one, and the colorful nightlife has also kicked off, and Hong Kong, a financial center, is meeting the new challenges of the world with the image of a city that never sleeps.
It's been three days since Soros arrived in Hong Kong. In these three days, except for one appearance at the airport, Zhong Shi did not appear again. Not only did Bell Stone not appear, but Paulson did not either.
Although it was clear that this was the other party's drying of himself, Soros still couldn't hold his breath, called Paulson several times, and wanted to go straight to the office of the Tianyu Fund. Finally, in the evening of this day, Paulson announced that he would meet here to discuss something he had been looking forward to for a long time.
"Hey, hey!"
Soros didn't answer, but laughed, and after snorting coldly, he said, "Not only that, but I also know that what happened in Greece was also instructed and arranged by you. I've always wondered why you didn't do it earlier, you had a plan for a long time, and at the last moment you threw me out as a scapegoat! ”
"Wait, what the hell are you talking about?"
Paulson, who had not spoken, was a little confused, "What happened in Greece?" Why don't I know? ”
Although Ivana was also curious, she just stood coldly behind the three of them and did not speak.
"Looks like you don't know what's going on?"
Soros's expression was slightly surprised, but after his eyes circled back and forth between Paulson and Zhongshi twice, he showed a meaningful smile, "That's right, even if you work for him as a cow and a horse, he doesn't necessarily tell you everything." ”
"Mr. Zhong, what is going on in Greece?"
Obviously, such a low-level sowing of discord did not anger Paulson, but he also clearly realized that what Soros said later was not a lie, and immediately asked Zhong Shi urgently, "Is there anything else I don't know?" ”
"Didn't you always want to know how Soros betrayed us?"
Zhong Shi sighed and explained softly, "I only recently learned about this matter. This Mr. Soros, who was kidnapped in Greece, confessed that I was the mastermind behind the European debt crisis. And the whole thing was videotaped, and the evidence was conclusive. I think the management of those big investment banks should have corresponding video evidence. ”
"You dare to say that you didn't do this?"
Soros immediately sneered, "You are the one who benefits the most from the whole thing." Directly pushed me to the opposite side of the entire American capital, and at the same time plucked myself clean. If you hadn't done it, I wouldn't have believed it. ”
"I really didn't expect that you actually thought of this trick!"
Speaking of this, Soros laughed, "I am indeed inferior to you." However, it is not so much about investment ability, but rather that I am far inferior to you in handling political and business relations. It's not surprising that you'll be able to navigate Asia, Europe, and the United States with ease, and it's obviously unlikely that you'll be able to navigate without the ability to excel. ”
"You're wrong!"
Looking at Soros with a sarcastic face, Zhong Shi shook his head helplessly and sighed, "George, if you knew that I was imprisoned by the German government for half a month, and my life was in danger, I wouldn't think so. ”
"What?"
This time, not only Paulson, but even Soros was shocked, and he couldn't believe what he heard.
"Yes, I can prove it all!"
Given a faint glance by Zhong Shi, Ivana knew that it was time for her to play at this time, so she immediately coughed lightly and said calmly, "I can testify to this matter, and the whole thing was carried out by me." Strictly speaking, Mr. Zhong Shi has violated the laws of the German Federal Union, and although he is not imprisoned, he is still under observation, and we may re-arrest him at any time. ”
"As for whether he will continue to be imprisoned, it depends on how he behaves!"
After glancing at Zhong Shi meaningfully, Ivana smiled and said to Soros and Paulson, "These two are also more dangerous characters. The federal government wouldn't mind taking the two of you back to investigate if necessary. ”
Paulson knew who she was. But Soros always thought that the other party was just a canary, and when he heard this, he was taken aback and couldn't help but look at the other party frequently.
"How's that, don't believe me?"
Looking at Soros with a provocative expression, Ivana said coldly, "I don't believe you can try!" Our government and leaders have reached the limit of their patience with your continued short-selling, and Bell Stone is an example of this. Now we are trying to dissuade you in a peaceful way, and if you still insist on not listening, you will only be able to make an example of the monkeys. ”
With the words spoken, Ivana's whole person's momentum also became fierce and murderous, and she was completely an awe-inspiring and inviolable character, no longer the golden silk cat that laughed and scolded before.
"Hey......
Soros subconsciously shrank his head and did not answer the other party's words. He knew very well that at this time, it was better not to show any attitude.
He neither promised not to short Europe, nor did he say that he would continue to short Europe in the future, naturally in order to leave himself a way back.
"So, the gang that kidnapped me in the first place was done by your government?"
After a moment of silence, Soros asked, "Or rather, the governments of other European countries." The spread of the last video also has the credit of the German government, I don't know if that's the case? ”
"What kidnapping and video?"
Ivana was stunned for a moment, confused, but soon she said confidently, "You can understand it that way! Whatever it is, we'll do it. If you want to settle the score, you can go to Berlin or Paris, you are welcome. ”
As soon as she said this, Soros stopped talking.
Naturally, even if such a thing happened, he would not have been able to go to the German or French government to theorize, because that would be purely seeking death. What's more, he has no evidence at hand, so it is naturally impossible for him to accuse or anything. And if he has to operate in the capital markets of these countries, it will be impossible to offend these governments whimsically.
"George, you're still wrong!"
At this time, Zhong Shi said again, "Do you think the whole thing is operated by the European government?" But the truth is quite the opposite, those who kidnapped you are neither Europeans nor mine, but people from the US government! ”
"What?"
Soros's eyes widened in surprise, and he couldn't believe what he heard, "No, no, no, it's impossible." You're lying, it's absolutely impossible. You must be lying to pass the buck! ”
Not only him, but the other two had confused looks on their faces.
"Why can't it be?"
Zhong Shi snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Originally, this scapegoat was me!" But I realized that if I were to be used by the European side, it would be a huge disservice to American capital. So they came up with a second alternative and put all the blame on you. ”
"But strictly speaking, you're not wronged, are you?"
After stating the pros and cons, Zhong Shi began to reason again, "First of all, it is a fact that you followed me and American capital to short European capital. Secondly, it is also true that in the face of threats, you did betray the entire American camp and leak the news to the European side. So even if everyone knows that the whole thing is being manipulated by the US government behind it, it will end up pointing all the fingers at you. Because you're a good character for them that doesn't do much, but you can use it. ”
"The whole thing is that the U.S. government is using me and other capital to short Europe for the purpose of disrupting the European economy. But in order to make up for the relationship between the two parties and not end up with serious suspicions, they need a scapegoat. After much deliberation, they eventually pushed you out into this role, and it's that simple! ”
Finally, Zhong Shi spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, revealing such an expression.
"Is that so?"
Soros realized who he had offended, and he looked at Zhong Shi in a daze, but his mind was quickly calculating the truth of what the other party said. After a while, he gave up thinking in vain, because he realized that what Zhong Shi had said was at least logically defensible.
There is also the crucial issue that Bell Stone has no way of convincing either JP Morgan, Goodman, or Stanley to stop serving the Quantum Fund, which only the U.S. government can do.
Combined with what Zhong Shi said, he clearly realized that he did not offend the government, nor did he offend the European government, but because of his appropriate identity and reputation, he played the most important role in the whole conspiracy - the scapegoat!
Paulson looked sympathetically at the suddenly clumsy Soros, suddenly filled with a strong sense of sympathy. Soros has always been his target, but in the face of a bigger chess game, the opponent is ultimately just a pawn to be manipulated.
Only people like Zhong Shi can be regarded as truly in control of their own destiny.
"I'm defeated!"
After a while, Soros unconsciously muttered this sentence, and began to repeat it frequently, "I lost so badly, I really didn't expect that the truth was so cruel!" ”
Of the few, only Zhongshi and Soros understood the true meaning of this sentence. Soros has always regarded Zhongshi as his biggest opponent in life. But after the truth was finally revealed, he realized that the other party was completely different from himself. As Paulson had guessed, Soros himself was still a pawn, but Bell Stone had become a chess player.
He was convinced.
Since then, he has never had the idea of competing with Zhongshi for supremacy.
"What should I do?"
Soon, Soros adjusted his mentality, lowered his head and pleaded with Zhong Shi, "Now I am no longer talking to you as an opponent, but asking you as a disciple, hoping that you can guide me to a clear path." ”
"Minglu?"
Zhong Shi didn't answer immediately, turned his head to look at the brightly lit night scene, and said leisurely after a long time, "I don't know what Minglu is. Living in a complicated situation, sometimes I can't guarantee that I won't make a big mistake. But what I can tell you is that the bell needs to be tied to the bell. ”
"That's all?"
Soros was a little surprised. He was a smart man and soon knew what Zhong Shi meant. However, he was a little unconvinced, after all, this matter was really a bit of a big trouble, and finally he asked again, "Can you get the reconciliation of those people in this way?" ”
"I don't know!"
Zhong Shi shook his head decisively, "This may or may not be enough. But what is certain is that if you don't, you will face a very miserable situation in the future. (To be continued.) )
