"In that case, it's time for me to take my leave." The middle-aged white man saw that Zhong Shi didn't give an answer for a long time, and naturally knew that the young man in front of him was not moved by him, so he could only say goodbye.

After buying this apartment, except for some necessary places that need to be renovated, there is no need to move much, after all, Zhongshi only needs a temporary place to stay.

HSBC's private banking department was very efficient, and after three days, Zhongshi got a driver's license, plus a very ordinary-looking car, the car's logo was affixed with the Toyota logo, which looked extremely dilapidated, and it was estimated that not many people were willing to steal it in the black area, but under the rusty exterior was equipped with Mercedes-Benz engines, windshields, etc., which were bulletproof, and even the tires were solid.

As soon as Zhong Shi got into the car, he heard the earth-shattering roar coming from the engine when he twisted the key, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the strong power was immediately transmitted to the four tires, Zhong Shi only felt a strong force rushing towards him, making his back tightly attached to the seat.

Zhong Shi is very satisfied with this car and believes that at least there should be no big problem in terms of travel. It's just that he hasn't been in the United States for a long time, and his credit record is basically zero, and it is still a little difficult to apply for a firearm.

Land Rover was going to accompany him to the United States, but after thinking about it carefully, Zhong Shi still dismissed this idea. Land Rover's security business is in full swing now, and there is no reason for him to give up his current business.

What's more, Land Rover is now the backstage of a political shili in an African country, and the shili he supports came to power just last year. There are still quite a few relationships that need to be sorted out.

Zhong Shi took precautions, as early as soon after the development of the beginning of the thought of a way out, waiting until two thousand years later, the African continent will be the next hot spot for the Shijie major shili to compete for, although he has no political ambitions, but in order to protect his property and family, he has to do something "cunning rabbit three holes" plan.

You must know that even Mr. Li Jiacheng, who is as expensive as the "richest man in China", has to disperse his investments in Shijie to avoid risks, and even more than ten years after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, he has completely withdrawn from the mainland and Hong Kong.

After informing Hong Kong and the preference in Princeton. Zhong Shi began his school career in Chicago.

Education in the United States is more peculiar. It is very different from the Chinese style of education, which focuses on divergent thinking and innovation, but does not pay much attention to basic education, so it focuses on mathematics and physics and subjects that are more dependent on mathematics. Asian students still have a big advantage in the early days.

There used to be such a joke. Say that mathematics professors in American universities teach a math problem of calculus. Then there is the silence of the whole classroom, and the professor can only name the Chinese students in desperation, and this kind of topic is often basic in Huaxia University. When the Huaxia students answered without pressure, the whole classroom fell into a deathly silence again.

What's even funnier is that the mathematics professor at an American university listed a simple step to derive a high math problem in the exam paper, which only needs a thought for ordinary Chinese students.

In this case, Zhong Shi quickly stood out among a group of white faces, which, combined with the foundation he had laid at Caltech in his previous life, quickly completed his first year of education and waited for exams for the rest of the time.

It was the weekend, and Zhong Shi drove his dilapidated fake Toyota back to the apartment building in the middle of the lake, and he had just put down his package and was about to take a shower and relax, when the phone in the room rang suddenly. Zhong Shi looked at the time, it was seven o'clock in the evening Eastern time, and on the other side of the world it was morning, and it was unlikely to be a call from Hong Kong.

Zhong Shi didn't bother with the constantly ringing phone, went straight into the bath, and soaked himself in the bathtub. He recently had to think hard about how he was going to do his money now.

After exiting the European exchange rate system, the FT 100 index in London skyrocketed, and the British economy quickly improved with the depreciation of the currency, and various economic data increased a lot compared with the previous year. In addition, due to the withdrawal from the European exchange rate system, the UK does not need to maintain a high interest rate policy, which has led to a rapid increase in the price of British long-term government bonds, and the appreciation of Bell Stone Investment's stocks and bonds in the UK has also increased a lot.

Roughly calculated, the funds have increased by 50% from the previous year, and the overall value has reached $3 billion, and Zhong Shi has not long ago instructed HSBC's brokerage division to sell in the market and then transfer the funds to the North American market.

Whether to invest in stock index futures or the commodity futures market in the next step, Zhong Shi has not yet figured out. In fact, no matter which market such a large amount of money is invested in, it will cause violent fluctuations in the underlying price, unless it is invested in the foreign exchange market with the central bank as the largest counterparty, but the time for the next currency crisis has not yet come.

"Zhong Shi, call me back after hearing the message, I'll be in Chicago tomorrow, and I'll bring a very strange paper when the time comes." After taking a comfortable hot bath, Zhong Shi turned on the answering machine, and Zhong Yi's slightly impatient voice came from inside.

"Papers? What paper? Zhong Shi was a little confused. Whether in later generations or now, he is far from the real academic world, and even if it is a quasi-academic community with a focus on application, he is not very close.

After graduating from Princeton University, he would either go to a lower-level university in the United States to become a lecturer, and then step by step to become a professor, or enter a large financial institution to find employment, or return to China to become a professor. But in those days, basically people who could go out were reluctant to come back.

Since the shortly after the European currency crisis, Zhong Yi published a paper in a core journal of economics, and his doctorate is basically eight or nine years old, and when he is busy with his doctoral thesis, he will almost be able to help Zhong Shi.

Zhong Shi already has an arrangement, and after he graduates, he will suggest that he go to Shijie Bank or the International Monetary Fund to work, you must know that departments like this recruit economics PhDs in well-known American universities every year to do research, and many people also use this as a springboard to eventually go to well-known investment banks on Wall Street.

The plane from New York landed at Midway Airport, which is another airport in Chicago, and unlike O'Hare Airport, this airport is dedicated to domestic flights, and it is relatively close to Chiba. Zhong Shi arrived at the airport very early and waited at the exit, and it didn't take long for Zhong Yi's figure to appear in sight.

Zhongyi, who I haven't seen for more than half a year, has lost a lot of weight, and he has become a lot more capable, he is wearing a windbreaker with a hat and a huge briefcase in his hand, which looks a lot more refined and has a bit of an elite taste.

"Brother, you're here!" Zhong Shi greeted him, hugged Zhong Yi slightly, and then looked up and down, "What the hell is going on?" Why can't you say it on the phone? ”

"It's an economic paper, written by a professor at Stanford University. I thought it made a lot of sense, so I'll show it to you! He smiled, and then opened his briefcase.

"Don't! How can you talk about things here? Let's go back to the apartment first, and then you can talk to me slowly. Zhong Shi stopped, and then pulled Zhong Yi out of the waiting hall.

"This ...... This...... This is your car, why is it so shabby? When he arrived at the parking place, Zhong Yi looked at the tattered car in front of him and said with some surprise.

He is a person in Zhongshi's inner circle, and he knows Zhongshi's net worth very well. You must know that he is in Princeton, and he drives luxury cars like Cadillac.

You must know that the United States is a country on wheels, as long as it is a normal person, it can afford the cost of a car. Moreover, the industrial system of the United States is extremely developed, especially the automobile industry, even if it has been hit by the Japanese automobile industry in recent years, but the three giants such as Ford, General Motors and Chrysler still firmly control most of the market.

"Don't underestimate my car, you can sit in it and know!" Zhong Shi pursed his lips disdainfully, then twisted the key, and when Zhong Yi was seated, he suddenly stepped on the accelerator, and the seemingly dilapidated car immediately jumped out, so that the unprepared Zhong Yi shook violently and almost flew out of the car.

"Okay! This car has a mystery inside! Sitting back on Haode Zhong didn't dare to be careless, and said to Zhong Shi with some emotion after holding the handle.

"Hehe, this car is bulletproof, you can't see it, you should know that the security in Chicago is not very good, especially our university." Zhong Shi Haha smiled and said with some disapproval.

After arriving at the Lake Tower Apartment, Zhong Yi was shocked again, he didn't expect Zhong Shi to live in such a high-end apartment, you must know that this is the core business district of Chicago, but he thought about it again, and was a little relieved, this money is really nothing.

"Tell me, what the hell is a paper?" Zhong Shi took out two cans of beer from the refrigerator, tossed one to Zhong Yi, and then slammed himself on the sofa, asking a little nonchalantly.

If it is a paper with a lot of terms, even if Zhong Yi explains it on the side, I am afraid that Zhong Shi does not understand it very well, you must know that he is only a half-level in his previous life or now.

"The name of the paper is 'The Source of Economic Growth in East Asia's Newly Industrialized Countries,' and it was written by a professor surnamed Liu at Stanford University, so you can take a look at it first." Zhongyi pulled out a stack of papers from his briefcase and handed it to Zhongshi.

"What?" Zhong Shi was stunned, and suddenly turned his head to look at Zhong Yi, his eyes were full of incredulity. (To be continued......)
