After another week, in addition to the position in the rupiah, most of the funds of the Tianyu Fund were successively invested in the long-term US Treasury market. This part of the money cannot lie in a bank account to sleep, and in the current economic situation, there are no promising projects to invest in, so long-term treasury bonds have become one of the best investment options.

In the past six months, the scale of the Tianyu Fund has grown like a weed, from the initial $1 billion to today's super fund with a scale of up to $15 billion, and in the Asian currency crisis, the Tianyu Fund has grabbed more than $5 billion in just over half a year, and the income in 97 years has surpassed all previous years, becoming the most profitable year.

Approaching the end of the year, although the currency crisis that spread throughout East Asia has not yet dissipated the smoke of gunpowder, because it is approaching New Year's Day and it is approaching the Chinese New Year, Zhong Shi simply sent a thick bonus envelope to all employees, and took a big holiday for another month, and claimed that there was a year-end dividend at the end of the Chinese New Year that was not less than this share, so naturally everyone was happy.

According to Zhong Shi's promise, in addition to the basic salary, they can get at least $2 million in bonus dividends twice this year. In fact, if the X-Spatial Fund had invested $500,000 at the beginning of its establishment, it would have a net worth of $10 million by now, not counting the annual management fee and the share of excess returns, although the flagship fund does not have these two expenses.

To put it bluntly, almost everyone in today's Tianyu Fund is a millionaire at the level of tens of millions of dollars. The richest of them is, of course, their leader, Zhong Shi. Excluding other stocks and hedge funds, Zhongshi has more than $13 billion in the funds in the Tianyu Fund alone. If you add in other aspects, it is even close to 20 billion dollars.

In the minds of Tianyu Fund insiders, the second place in wealth is Andrew, who is usually not at all conspicuous, and his assets are about $1 billion. This guy who often "makes a lot of noise" on TV is not very involved in the management of the Tianyu Fund, and he doesn't know what Lu Dao is busy with all day long.

The third is Liao Xiaohua, who appears in the Tianyu Fund less than Andrew, and it is said that his share in the Tianyu Fund has now grown to about 450 million US dollars, and I don't know who counted this number. But the veteran employees who have been staying at Tianyu Fund know it. He and Andrew are Bell Stone's two confidants, and no one can shake their status.

Others, including Ma Jiarui and Ren Ruowei, shared the remaining share of about 700 million US dollars, although it was a little less, but who let them invest not much principal.

"Today is Christmas Eve. I don't know what Lao Liao plans to do? ”

"Drip". The door was opened from the outside. Zhong Shi, who was wearing an off-white windbreaker, strode in, and naturally the two protectors Andrew and Liao Xiaohua were by his side.

Since it's almost 98 years old, plus almost all transactions are at a standstill. Therefore, with Zhong Shi's permission, analysts and traders have begun to leave one after another, the trading hall seems a little deserted, Zhong Shi's words are a little loud, so that the analysts who are still working look sideways, but they just glanced at it, and then lowered their heads again and continued to work.

Liao Xiaohua's expression was a little unnatural, and he replied with some embarrassment: "Zhong Sheng, don't you know that the old man of Lu Dao doesn't care about these ghosts' festivals at all?" I mentioned it to him once before, and he was furious, saying that I forgot my roots or something, which made me very bored. ”

"Really?" Zhong Shi felt a little funny, turned his head to Andrew and said, "Andrew, what about you, do you have any arrangements?" ”

Christmas is a traditional holiday for Westerners, and Andrew naturally won't miss it. Seeing Zhong Shi's question, Andrew showed a weird smile on his face, squeezed his eyebrows at Zhong Shi, and then said with a smile: "There is a cruise cocktail party tonight, which is jointly organized by Goodman Hong Kong and Stanley Hong Kong, and I have already bought a dress." ”

As an investment bank, it is inevitable to maintain a good relationship with your clients. Therefore, during some festivals, investment banks will find a way to gather customers together to connect with each other, and this kind of gathering is also the best opportunity to expand their contacts, so many people will do everything possible to get an invitation card or something. Of course, for people like Andrew, the organizers will do everything possible to invite him, and even use him as a gimmick to invite others.

"......" Zhong Shi scratched his head, sighed, and said helplessly, "Why didn't they invite me?" I don't have a place to spend this time, but it would be an eye-opener to be able to go on a cruise. ”

"Cut!" Liao Xiaohua and Andrew glanced at each other, nodded in unison, and then the two of them gave Zhong Shi a middle finger together, indicating that they disdained Zhong Shi's pretending behavior.

Zhong Shi pretended to be angry, and suddenly slapped the table and shouted, "You two, you are really a rebellion. I don't know if I've never seen a cruise ship? Well, Andrew, make a phone call and ask the prom guy to send me an invitation card, so that I can go and see it. ”

Seeing that Zhong Shi's expression did not seem to be fake, Andrew hurriedly answered, then took out the phone in his arms and dialed the other party's number.

"Zhong Sheng, you don't really want to participate, do you?" Liao Xiaohua was also a little puzzled, you must know that the last time Lu Dao participated in a drinking party was several years ago, and at that drinking party, Zhong Shihao spent a lot of money and won a listed company in one go.

It's just that I don't know what kind of movement he is going to make this time? Liao Xiaohua muttered in his heart.

Zhong Shi glanced at him lightly, as if he had seen through his thoughts, shook his head slightly, and then said casually: "Don't you know that I also have times when I am bored?" Sometimes it's true that you should go out and move around more, and you can't enjoy life. Besides, I haven't really seen a cruise ship. ”

Hearing Zhong Shi talk about cruise ships three times and twice, Liao Xiaohua couldn't help but slander in his heart again: Cruise ships? With your Zhongshi's current net worth, I don't know how many cruise ships you can buy.

It didn't take long for Andrew's phone call to finish, and after closing the line, he came over excitedly and shouted, "Zhong Sheng, everything is done." The other party is honored to be able to invite a big man like you to the reception, and the invitation will be sent over soon. ”

"Big shots?" Zhong Shi smiled and touched his face, as if asking the two of them, and said as if talking to himself, "When did I become a big man?" ”

……

When night falls, the lights come on, because it is Christmas Eve, the whole Hong Kong Island is brightly lit, this is the first Christmas after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, although the recent economic boom, but this does not prevent some people from celebrating. And because of the years of British rule, Hong Kong has been deeply affected in many ways, so the streets are full of people coming out to play.

Zhong Shi and his entourage drove to a private yacht club in Victoria Harbour, where a lot of people had gathered at the entrance of the club, and luxury cars drove into it from time to time. What made Zhong Shi a little stunned was that there were still a few people with cameras at the entrance, taking pictures of luxury cars from time to time, and the flash lights were frequently lit up, which was a bit of a celebrity walking on the red carpet.

"What is this?" Zhong Shi looked at the scene outside the inky glass window in confusion, turned his head and asked Andrew.

Andrew smiled, opened the car door and turned back to Zhong Shi and said, "They all came to see me." After saying that, he stepped out of the car door, and suddenly the dazzling flash door lit up, illuminating the originally dim scenery around him as if it were day. Andrew was also very cooperative, with a friendly smile on his face, and frequently waved to the camera.

"Stock god, the Hong Kong stock market is not good during this time, I don't know when you will come out again and give investors some advice?"

"Mr. Andrew, I recently bought Huaxia Telecom, I wonder if you can give me some guidance?"

"Almost all of the recent predictions about Hong Kong's capital market have been guessed by you, I wonder if you have any advice for investors next? Mr. Andrew. ”

……

Taking this opportunity, more than a dozen reporters surrounded him with voice recorders, and if it weren't for the security guards struggling to block it, I'm afraid they would have surrounded Andrew in groups. During this process, Andrew remained silent and smiling and allowed the media to film, and after being filmed for five minutes, he put aside the words "I will publish the results of the study at the appropriate time" and got into the carriage.

"I didn't expect you to be so hot? They're all here for you, aren't they? It wasn't until the car window was completely rolled up that Zhong Shi dared to raise his head, looked at Andrew who was still smug with a smile, and said with some teasing.

"Of course!" Andrew didn't think about it, so he blurted out directly, but after looking at Zhong Shi's face, he carefully continued, "Actually, Zhong Sheng, why do you want to say these things through my mouth?" If you go out in person, aren't all these scenery and scenes yours now? ”

"Cut!" Zhong Shi snorted coldly, raised a long middle finger at Andrew's face, and said disdainfully, "I don't need these false names. Besides, it's useful to make you famous, but I see that you're enjoying this life right now, so I'm not going to tell you my intentions for the time being, and you'll understand when the time comes. ”

Andrew doesn't care about Jongshi's so-called deep meaning, as long as he doesn't deprive him of the life he is now living in the spotlight, he is already very satisfied. He didn't care that Zhong Shi would have any unfavorable thoughts about him, hehe laughed a few times, and after a few more gossips with Zhong Shi, the car drove to its destination.

The two got out of the car and looked up to see a 100-meter-long cruise ship docked on the pier, the cruise ship was full of lights and brightness, and the deck was full of people walking around in evening dresses, smiling, holding champagne, and talking head-to-ear.

After handing in the invitation post, the two were led by a woman in uniform to board the cruise ship, and not long after, with a long whistle, the cruise ship slowly sailed out of Victoria Harbour with a full ship of passengers. (To be continued......)
