Chapter 27 How to Establish a Foothold on Hong Kong Island
Davis ultimately opted to go against the bulls, and he did succeed, successfully repelling the bulls' attacks in the final game.
Wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead, Davis couldn't help but complain: "Damn, I don't know what those Japanese are thinking?" My God! ”
For a whole afternoon, he did not see the slightest move from the Japanese, who had a huge short position, and Davis couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with this "comrade-in-arms".
As the saying goes, "If you are not afraid of god-like opponents, you are afraid of pig-like teammates." ”
Davis invested hundreds of millions of dollars to bring the bulls back, which is the upper limit of the amount of money he can use. The deep-pocketed Japanese moved very little in one afternoon, investing only millions of dollars.
In order to hedge the poly, the Japanese consortium invested huge sums of money in the US capital market to ensure the current exchange rate of the yen and prevent the loss of their exports due to appreciation. It is precisely because of the participation of these Japanese that Space Capital dares to establish such a large number of short positions.
"Miller, go find out what the Japanese are doing in the afternoon?" Davis, who came back to his senses, felt a haze rise in his heart. At this time, he remembered the rumor in the afternoon, could it be true?
Miller, who was cleaning up the battlefield, heard Davis's order, quickly put down his work, and called a Japanese agent he was familiar with.
The Japanese on the phone spoke a difficult English and talked to Miller for a long time, talking nonsense about the good weather in Chicago and New York recently, but he didn't answer Miller's questions directly. It wasn't until the Japanese at Zuihou that he said vaguely: "The situation is different!" ”
Miller hated this kind of oriental conversation, and he didn't understand what it meant.
"What did you say?" After listening to Miller's words, Davis's brows furrowed deeply, and after a while, as if he remembered something, he yelled at Miller, "Look at today's bulls, find out who ate our empty order today!" ”
He remembered a certain possibility, and became extremely out of shape, if the guess in his heart was really confirmed, then this time the space capital would be a heavy loss!
Sure enough, the news brought back by Miller confirmed his suspicion that the most bulls opened positions in the afternoon turned out to be the Japanese. It seems that the rumor is true, and the Japanese abandoned him.
"Oh my God! Damn the Japanese, damn the Japanese government, damn ......" Davis hugged his head and let out a painful wail, this time the loss is miserable!
He looked at Miller, who was at a loss in front of him, and the anger in his heart couldn't help but vent to this new student: "How do you do it?" Don't you know this situation to report? It's all fucking your fault, you're fired! ”
Miller, who suffered from the fish in the pond, was also furious, swept away the things on the table, pointed at Davis's nose and shouted: "I can't stand you anymore, you bitch!" Wait for bankruptcy, bastard! After saying that, he walked away without looking back, leaving only Davis with a stunned face.
Miller, who walked out of the building, dialed the SEC, pinched his throat and said, "Is it the SEC (Securities Regulatory Commission)?" I want to report ......"
Davis, who is still cleaning up the mess, is still thinking about how to operate tomorrow to minimize the loss. Unaware of his anger just now, he put Space Capital and himself in prison.

"Zhongshi, are you really giving up?"
Liao Chengde, who came out of the futures company, couldn't wait to ask. He still has some common sense, knowing that holding a position overnight is very risky, if you are not absolutely sure, it is best to close the order you hold on the same day, after all, the money in hand is real money.
"You're just too cautious!"
Bell Shi yawned and slipped into the Mercedes parked downstairs, which in the eighties was a symbol of luxury. Liao Chengde, who was following behind, saw that the persuasion was ineffective, sighed, and followed into the Mercedes-Benz.
"Hungry, let's go eat Saigon seafood!"
"What? What time is it? Liao Chengde was stunned, unable to believe what he heard.
Benefiting from his gains in the stock market, Liao Chengde bought a villa in the wealthy Mid-Levels, which is also close to Central, and is a treasure trove of land. Sai Kung, on the other hand, is in the New Territories, passing through Victoria Harbour, Kowloon, Clear Water Bay and other places, which is quite far.
"Hey, just kidding!"
Zhong Shi snorted, and couldn't help but be a little vigilant in his heart, he brought some habits of later generations to the present, and said them unconsciously in his mouth. In later life, after finishing work late every night, he would take a speedboat to Clear Water Bay and Sai Kung to have supper, where the seafood was very suitable for his taste.
"Why don't we go to Sham Shui Po for supper!"
Liao Chengde saw that Zhong Shi was in good spirits, and couldn't help but suggest. Sham Shui Po is a relatively backward area in Hong Kong, equivalent to the slums of Hong Kong, the British government of Hong Kong established the earliest public housing here, and the people living in it are mostly the middle and lower classes.
However, Sham Shui Po is also famous for its food, with many famous tea rooms, and local snacks such as barbecued pork buns, fish balls, and siu mai are a must. Ordinary Hong Kong people like to call three or five friends at the food stalls on the street in the middle of the night, order a few egg baked fish sausages, stir-fried beef with vegetables, claypot vegetables, and then a few bottles of cold beer, which is a very comfortable day for them.
Although Liao Chengde is now worth half a billion, he still likes to go to Sham Shui Po for dinner. He was smuggled from the mainland back then, and the first place he settled down was in the public housing in Sham Shui Po, where he went out to work as a coolie every day, and could drink some beer and eat food stalls at night.
Liao Chengde can't show off anything in the mainland, so he can only go to Sham Shui Po to show off to his former friends and show off in the shops he frequents.
"Okay, aren't you afraid that there will be a club doing things there?"
Zhong Shi thought about it and nodded in agreement, but the next sentence raised Liao Chengde's heart to his throat.
Liao Chengde has naturally heard of the community (underworld), and even in the past, he often saw dozens of people fighting in the middle of the night, but it was only when he moved to Hong Kong Island in the past few years that this situation disappeared. Today, he is not like he was poor and white, he only has a bad life, and he is not afraid of anything at all. If you target the club, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat or sleep.
Hong Kong's associations were born in '49, when the mainland and Taiwan were facing each other, and Hong Kong became a place for private contacts and rivalry between the two sides. At the same time, the two sides sent a large number of agents to carry out activities in Hong Kong, and people from all walks of life and nine streams who had come from the mainland also mixed in, and naturally formed associations.
In the 80s and 90s, the development of Hong Kong's community shili reached its peak, and at this time, when Hong Kong's future was uncertain and people were panicking, the community shili developed vigorously with the support of both parties. It wasn't until 97 years later that the evil Shili in Hong Kong was really defeated. At that time, Zhang Ziqiang, Ye Jihuan and other famous bandits who shocked Hong Kong were arrested one after another, and Zhang Ziqiang was even sentenced to death, which greatly shocked the triad in Hong Kong and made them realize that the mainland government is different from the British government in Hong Kong, and its attitude towards the triad is also completely different.
"This... This one... Let's just find a random place to have a supper! ”
Liao Chengde, who came back to his senses, was a little scared, looked at Zhong Shi uncertainly, and said intermittently.
"Haha, what are you afraid of? Even if it's a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I want to see it! At most, it's about money, don't worry, they don't look down on you! ”
Zhong Shi's face did not change color, and he smiled, and let the driver drive across the sea.
The driver in front saw Liao Chengde nodding helplessly from the rear mirror, and then stepped on the accelerator, and the Mercedes-Benz accelerated sharply and went straight to the cross-sea tunnel.
……
Liao Chengde, who was restless, lit a cigarette, but his eyes unconsciously aimed at the seven young men with green dragons tattooed on the other table, with Zhong Shi's previous reminder, he now felt that everyone was a member of the community, and everyone wanted to be unfavorable to him, and even the seafood in his mouth was not so delicious!
"What's wrong? Old Liao? Eat, look, how fresh this lobster is! ”
Zhong Shi looked at Liao Chengde, who was uneasy, and deliberately picked up a lobster the size of an arm and sent it to Liao Chengde.
Liao Chengde, who took the lobster with a bitter face, chewed absentmindedly, at this time, even if it was dragon meat in the sky, it had no taste in his mouth.
"I'm guaranteed you won't be able to eat anything in two days!"
Zhong Shi held back the smile in his heart and inadvertently nodded at him.
"Zhongshi, why did you come here?"
Liao Chengde is not a fool, after a little thought, he understands. Ever since he met Zhong Shi and knew how extraordinary this child was, he knew that his every move was very meaningful.
"I'm here for weishenme? Didn't you ask me to come? ”
Taking a long sip of Coke, Zhongshi couldn't help but stare at the cigarette on the table. Liao Chengde understood, and hurriedly lit one and handed it to Zhong Shi, Zhong Shi took it unceremoniously, took a sip beautifully, and then beckoned to Liao Chengde and motioned him to lean his head over. "I plan to open a private equity fund in the next few years, and the target customer is the black and white boss, what do you think?"
"What? Are you going to buy off the Governor? ”
Liao Chengde was shocked and couldn't help but scream.
His abrupt sound immediately attracted the people who were also dining at the surrounding tables. Everyone looked this way, and some of them still had disgruntled looks on their faces. Fortunately, Liao Chengde's words were said in Mandarin, otherwise if someone broke the news to the newspaper, it would definitely cause an uproar.
"I said how did you startle, you don't look like an adult!"
Zhong Shi put down the water glass heavily and glared at Liao Chengde fiercely, obviously very dissatisfied with his fuss.
