Chapter 255: The Battle of the "Official" Base (15)
"This ......"
As soon as he heard this question, Andrew lowered his head, pondered for a moment, then raised his head, and after glancing at the camera meaningfully, he made up his mind, "In fact, strictly speaking, our Tianyu Fund was a part of the upstream capital in the market before, and we did not miss the investment opportunities that happened around the world in the past few years, and we have achieved today's achievements by luck." However, our founder and money manager - I will not name it - has never forgotten his origins and has never been involved in the attack on the Hong Kong market. Not only did he not, but after gaining insight into the intention of international speculators to destroy Hong Kong's economy, he also took the initiative to contact the Hong Kong government and proposed to use his own funds to help the Hong Kong government stabilize the overall situation. ”
"As for the question you asked, whether we will defeat international speculators, I can clearly tell you here, including us, other Aigang Capital and the Hong Kong government, have prepared enough funds to definitely beat international speculators in the market in August, so let's wait and see."
"Wait," the female anchor is a professional in the end, and she was extremely keenly aware of the off-topic meaning of Andrew's words, and immediately asked rhetorically, "You just mentioned the Hong Kong government, does it mean that the Hong Kong government is also involved in this disk protection operation?" In other words, no one, including Director Cen Yinquan, lied in this operation? ”
"Of course!" Andrew said categorically, "In addition, there are rumors in the market that our purpose is to control listed companies, and I must first dispel a rumor." Not to mention that the outstanding shares are not 100%, even if it is a 100% circulating company, it is impossible for us to take a single constituent stock into our arms, not to mention that there are 32 other constituent stocks in the market? ”
"In addition, we also need to bail out those stocks that are closely related to the constituent stocks, as well as the stocks of listed companies that are not among the constituent stocks, but are closely related to the lives of Hong Kong people. The most important thing is that in order to let the speculators completely break off the idea of shorting Hong Kong in the future, we also have to allocate a part of the funds in the Hong Kong stock futures index, and use guò to do long futures to make opponents with the speculators. It is precisely because we do not back down in the slightest. It is the international speculators who are in a dilemma in the August index. They can't close their positions or turn them around, so now they have to desperately spread news one after another in the market, hoping to incite others to short Hong Kong stocks together, and they can take the opportunity to escape. ”
"So I have to tell the audience in front of the TV set. Don't take the rumors of the market lightly. In particular, rumors of the delivery date of stock index futures. If possible, try to avoid doing it on this day, as you'll never figure out what the main money thinks. Over here. I appeal to the management of those constituent stocks not to speculate about our behavior because of unwarranted rumors in the market, and Tianyu Fund has been, is and will operate within the rules formulated by the HKMA and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. ”
……
"Whoa, that's right, I'm going to be moved!"
In Central, in the VIP trading room of Stanley Company, a middle-aged man in his forties watched Andrew's performance on television intently, and beside him, a young Asian man was translating Andrew's words word for word. As Andrew's meaning was gradually expressed, the middle-aged man's face began to change, and when he heard the end, he couldn't help but clap his hands, but his face was full of sarcastic expressions.
If Zhong Shi was here, he would have found out that this middle-aged man was Druckenmiller, who was below one person and above ten thousand people in the Quantum Fund.
In order to cope with the situation in Hong Kong, Druckenmiller flew from JFK Airport to Hong Kong overnight, and there was no time to take a jet lag or rest, and as soon as he left the station, he was picked up by the staff of Stanley Company, who had been waiting here for a long time, and then as the commander of the three armed forces, he personally commanded today's counterattack.
Naturally, the first few news to come out of Stanley's headquarters in Hong Kong after the opening of the market was part of Druckenmiller's plan. Although these news disrupted the opponent's position at a certain time, Druckenmiller quickly found that the opponent's reaction was also very fast, and the subsequent strategy was almost-for-tat, and the struggle for funds did not fall behind at all.
In desperation, Druckenmiller had no choice but to use a "killer move" to reveal the identity of the actual disc protector to the world. Originally, in his expectation, if the other party did not respond, the market would inevitably set off a lot of groundless speculation, which could be used for shorting. If the other party responds publicly, but the response is inappropriate, it will also cause market fluctuations, and they can also take this opportunity to suppress the futures index.
The "inappropriate response" here naturally refers to the fact that Tianyu Fund simply highlighted its identity without revealing more information. Who doesn't want to, the other party's "stock commentator" who is responsible for releasing the wind, in addition to not hesitating to report himself, also hinted that Tianyu Fund and the Hong Kong government are inextricably linked, and even broke out the news that "if Tianyu Fund fails, the Hong Kong government will take over later", which suddenly disrupted Druckenmiller's overall plan.
Although I don't know whether what the other party said is true or false, but according to the previous deduction and the current analysis, Druckenmiller already has a general understanding in his heart, that is, if he does not use extraordinary means, I am afraid that today's situation will be more auspicious, although he and his allies still have tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars in stock sales at this time.
"Jamie, I'm Stanley, is that plan ready? If you're ready, do it. ”
After dialing a phone call, the sneer on Druckenmiller's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a haze on his face, like the bad weather outside the window, which made people feel uncomfortable immediately at a glance.
Slowly lowering the phone, Druckenmiller made a pause gesture and instructed the trader: "Slow down the offensive for the time being, and wait for the right time." ”
After several direct encounters, he has gradually figured out the opponent's strategy. If you don't attack on a large scale, the other side will not lightly use a huge amount of money to protect the market, but let the market float freely. Such a naked expression was clearly aimed at them, and when he thought of this, Druckenmiller couldn't help but grit his teeth, and looked forward to the upcoming meeting with Zhong Shi again.
……
In the midst of the storm, a minibus sprayed with the words "emergency breakdown car" sped through the streets of Central, and the splashed rain even sprayed onto the glass doors and windows of businesses a few meters away, which shows the speed of the bus. Soon. The car was parked right in front of the One IFC building.
In the white mist. Out of the car, four men in electric company uniforms, wearing caps and carrying toolboxes, braved the pouring rain and rushed into the reception hall on the first floor, where one of the older men stomped vigorously. Deliver a business card to the property security guard who greeted you. said: "The company on the seventh floor reports for repairs. Saying they just had a power outage is our calling card! ”
The property security guard glanced at the four of them suspiciously, and carefully examined the business cards. The four of them waited for a while, and then dialed the internal phone to confirm that the company on the seventh floor that had just moved in not long ago really had a power failure, and then used the walkie-talkie to notify the people at the monitoring station and asked them to send two people over and escort a few people up.
Because the first phase of the International Financial Center gathers a large number of institutions and companies, including the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Futures Exchange and other heavyweight institutions, and the inflow and outflow of funds from here every hour are calculated in hundreds of millions, so the property management is extremely strict, even if these electrical maintenance workers have uniforms and business cards, but the property still sent two security guards to follow all the way.
When the group of six climbed to the seventh floor, they found that there were not many people working in this trading company called "Taiji", and I don't know if it was because of the power outage or the typhoon, only a few people wandered around the bleak office area, gossiping from time to time. They were greeted by a fat man sweating profusely, claiming to be the manager of the place, who briefly recounted the situation and asked the electrical maintenance workers to get to work.
"It's a bit difficult, after all, we don't have a structural plan for this building, and we don't know if it's the main or secondary line that has a problem!" The man with the biggest face pretended to take a flashlight to check it, and replied embarrassedly, "I checked it just now, and there are no problems with the gate and fuse, so the biggest possibility is that there is a problem with the wiring in the ceiling, we don't know what the specific situation is, but generally speaking, the problem is not very big, but it is a little troublesome." ”
"So what to do?" The fat man was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't even bother to wipe the sweat on his forehead, "I'm contacting the United States for a big order, who knows that the power will be cut off." Ay...... I don't know how much I'm going to lose now! ”
"Well, one of you, go down and get the schematic diagram of this floor, or the diagram of this area." After checking again, the maintenance worker said to the two security guards who were looking at each other, "Only if we know the direction of the route in detail, we can determine what went wrong." ”
The two security guards looked at each other and looked down for a long time, and finally one of the security guards quickly ran towards the emergency passage and went down to get the drawings needed by the electrical maintenance workers.
When the figure of the security guard disappeared from everyone's sight, several electrical maintenance workers looked at each other very tacitly, and then quietly dispersed, one of them untied the toolbox and took out a strange-smelling towel from it, and the other two stood left and right beside the remaining security guard, surrounded him.
And the fat manager, between the shaking of a few people, also quietly took a few steps back and gave the space to a few "electrical maintenance workers".
When the security guard saw this, he suddenly felt bad in his heart, pulled out the stick on his waist, pointed directly at the "electrical maintenance worker" who was still busy checking the line, and shouted in a loud voice: "Who are you and what do you want to do?" ”
"I don't want to do anything, I just want you to take a nap!"
The "electrical maintenance worker" turned his face, unhurriedly took out a swarthy pistol from his arms, and pointed it at the forehead of the security guard, "Give me a good look, otherwise I don't mind killing today!" ”
As soon as he saw the guy in the other party's hand, and then looked at the stick in his hand, the security guard immediately became a little short of breath, and in this distraction, the "electrical maintenance man" who had been standing silently behind him suddenly came up and covered his mouth and nose with a towel stained with ether, and it didn't take long for the security guard to collapse to the ground.
"All the cameras here, right?"
After dragging the security guard to a corner that was not easily noticed, several "electrical maintenance workers" simply cleaned up, and the leader asked the fat manager, who had been watching coldly.
"Don't worry, it's already done!"
The fat manager pursed his lips, showed a grim smile, pointed to the ceiling again, and said: "The line above is the exchange that leads to the upstairs, although it will be delayed for two or three minutes at most, but for you, it should be enough!" (To be continued......)
