"Damn, what is this guy doing?"

Long Island, New York, a luxurious private golf course, after reading the statement made by JP Morgan transmitted on his mobile phone, Soros couldn't help but complain, "Could it be that this time the incident is also related to him?" ”

Since the last time he was in distress in Greece, Soros has never taken half a step outside the United States, and even recruited several bodyguards to defend himself 24 hours a day, from home to work.

What happened in Greece made him realize a serious truth: the son of a daughter does not sit in court. If even the life is over, then the rest of the stuff is not to mention. Although it is not clear who planned this, Soros will take this as a warning that he is shorting Europe.

He would never have dreamed that this incident was secretly planned by the U.S. government in order to push him to the outside world and serve as a scapegoat for his nemesis.

Afterwards, he also wondered who had done all this, but the result of thinking about it was that a certain country in Europe was the most suspicious. As a well-known global speculator, he was mistaken for the driving force behind Europe's debt crisis.

For the rest of the day, he waited all day to see Zhong Shi's joke. After all, the other party has moved such a big formation, and he must not give up on this.

But waiting and waiting, only to wait for the news of Zhong Shi's appearance in London. The other party attended JP Morgan's cocktail party, and even brought a flower-like ******.

Naturally, the news disappointed him greatly.

While it's unclear what happened in between, Soros seems to realize that European governments don't seem to be planning to do anything to Bellstone. Sure enough, Zhong Shi's figure frequently appeared in Hong Kong, New York and other places.

This time Zhong Shi appeared in New York, which made him smell a little bit of conspiracy. But before he could make any moves, he heard the news that JP Morgan had lost a lot in the derivatives market.

Sensitive Soros. I immediately realized that there seemed to be a connection.

"Hey, George, it's your turn?"

Just as his face was cloudy, his buddy walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and asked. "Nothing, right? It doesn't seem good to look at your face! ”

This golf buddy's name is Dan. Brad is the former CEO of a large American company, and his annual salary once reached as much as $20 million. He was a loyal customer of Soros as early as a decade ago.

Cinnabar. Brad is now sixty-five years old, and his long and stressful career as a manager has left his hair completely gray early. Coupled with the deep wrinkles on his face, he looks much older than the seventy-year-old Soros.

"Nothing!"

Soros put away his phone and said lightly to the other party, "It's JP Morgan that something happened." But don't worry, we're not buying JP Morgan shares. ”

"That's good!"

Cinnabar. Brad had no doubt about him. casually said, "Don't hit the next shot into the pond." Now I'm three shots ahead of you, and it looks like you're going to have lunch! ”

"Victory or defeat is uncertain!"

Not to be outdone, Soros took the club from the caddy's hand, aimed it several times, and then swung the club confidently.

Unfortunately, despite all the preparations, the golf ball that fell to the grass jumped a few times. Still fell into the pond without a fight.

"Haha, thank you for your hospitality!"

Cinnabar. Brad couldn't help but laugh. He took off his gloves and patted Soros, who was smiling wryly, "George, as I said, thank you for your hospitality." ”

The relationship between the two sides is quite good, and there are some small jokes on weekdays, just like today's golf bet. Nature. This small amount of money is insignificant for both parties.

"George, you also know that I have a part of my pension ......"

After a full meal, the two began to drink coffee and chat, enjoying this leisurely afternoon. Cinnabar. Brad pondered for a moment and made a request to Soros. "Now I want to choose a better investment method for this part of the funds, do you have anything to recommend?"

For his request, Soros was slightly stunned.

The reason why it is about today and Dan. When Brad met, Soros was aiming for the $50 million pension he had on hand. But now listen to Dan. Brad's tone, the other party did not seem to intend to entrust the funds to Soros's fund to take care of, which surprised him.

"What, Dan, aren't you happy with the performance of the Quantum Fund?"

Soros asked rhetorically, puzzled, "In the past twenty years, it seems that no fund has been able to surpass the growth rate of the Quantum Fund, right?" My old friend, why don't you think about us anymore? ”

"Hey, hey!"

In response to Soros's rhetorical question, Dan. Brad obviously expected this, and immediately scratched his head, laughed embarrassedly, and then said, "George, although we are old friends, but in the past three years, your fund has not performed as well as it should, which is not the result I want to see. ”

In the past three years, Soros has shorted Stanley, Goodman & Co., the U.S. 10-year Treasury market and Germany's Volkswagen merger, and his net worth has fallen again and again. If it hadn't been for the subsequent gains in the European debt crisis, I am afraid that it would have been abandoned by the market long ago.

As soon as he heard this, Soros's face suddenly became gloomy, and he remembered Zhongshi again.

"Besides, investment is all about risk diversification, and I have nothing to blame for doing so!"

Seeing that Soros was unhappy, Dan. Brad came up with another set of rhetoric that had been prepared a long time ago, "This theory is what you taught me in the first place. And it's also true that your fund is not performing as well as it should, I just want to avoid the risk. If your fund performs well in the future, I don't rule out the possibility of continuing to invest more. ”

That's the typical American way of thinking. Friendship is friendship, and business still follows the same set of business.

"That's ......"

Soros was also very simple, quickly figured it out, and began to recommend it to the other party seriously, "The most eye-catching performance in the past two years is naturally the Paulson Fund, and they have made a lot of money in 07 and 10. But it's not clear what will happen next, but according to your net worth. I'm afraid that the other party may not be able to see it. There are also hedge funds such as Greenlight Capital, Pershing Square and Bridgewater, which have performed very well over the past year. In addition to hedge funds, you can also invest in bond funds, and Pacific Investment Management's bond funds have also performed quite well over the past year, although the yield is difficult to compare with hedge funds, but it is definitely able to outperform the long-term interest rate index. ”

"Let's be honest. There is also an unknown hedge fund in this world. ”

Eventually, Soros began to talk about the "adversary" he hated so much: "Its performance is beyond the reach of the entire hedge fund community." If I was the most successful hedge fund manager from the 70s to the 90s, he was the most successful hedge fund manager of the last two decades, and he was far more accomplished than me. Fear...... I'm afraid no one will be able to do this in the future! ”

"How can there be such an institution?"

Hearing Soros say this, Dan. Brad was shocked, couldn't believe what he heard, and asked eagerly, "Which investment institution is this?" I'm going to join in! ”

"Hey, hey. Don't you think it's strange? Such a great institution, but the outside world does not have much of a reputation for them? ”

Soros pursed his mouth and said mockingly, "Although we are also a closed-end fund, there will always be some investors who will disclose their returns, which is a helpless thing, and we can't turn our faces with investors." But there's hardly anything like that in this fund, Dan. Don't you understand why? ”

"They don't have investors?"

After being reminded by Soros, Dan. Brad understood this almost instantly. Immediately shook his head in disappointment, "If you don't open it to the outside world, then no matter how good your performance is, it has nothing to do with me." ”

His disappointment was palpable, and he couldn't hide it.

Seeing him like this, Soros was naturally very happy, and couldn't help but say: "There are some things that I can't tell you. But what I can say is that an institution like this has a lot of energy and maintains a very close relationship with governments. So, to be able to become his client. It means you're among the top few people on the planet. ”

"Is that you, too?"

Cinnabar. Brad was completely aroused, and followed Soros's words and asked, "Based on your current net worth and influence, you should be able to become this small group of people, right?" ”

"Of course!"

Soros replied proudly, but then his expression became depressed again, "It's just a pity that I used to be at odds with him, so I can't be friends with him." ”

"You will offend such a person?"

Cinnabar. Brad felt a little incredulous, "Aren't you afraid that he will retaliate against you?" If it's really as you say, then the other party is bound to hate you to the core. It's not a good thing to make enemies like that, George. ”

The principle of harmony and wealth is applicable everywhere, as a veteran of the shopping mall, Dan. Bled is also very clear, of course. So after hearing what Soros said, he was quite surprised.

"Am I standing right in front of you right now?"

Soros smiled disapprehantly, "Don't worry, we are just a little business dispute, and the grievances involved have been resolved in the capital market." I'm sure the other party thinks the same way as me, otherwise I wouldn't have offended him like this. ”

But just after he finished saying this, a trace of gloom appeared in the depths of his heart without warning, will it really be as he expected, but only in the capital market?

Soon he knew the answer! (To be continued.) )
