Chapter 698 [Betting, History is Always Amazingly Similar]
It's February.
During this time, it can be described as a hustle and bustle, and Luo Sheng, as a party to the party, has been watching the play, but Zhang Bowen, who was in front, felt a lot of pressure, and the door of the company's headquarters has been blocked by the media for half a month.
Although Lao Zhang is also blindly confident in Luo Sheng and is convinced of his ability to turn the tide, but now that the situation has developed to this point, it is impossible to say that Lao Zhang is not false in his heart.
As the helmsman of another company, he was already in a hurry at this time, and his own boss was good, not only did not calm down the negative news as soon as possible, but also wanted to test the company's ability to resist pressure.
This is outrageously a bit excessive.
However, Lao Zhang still stabilized his mentality, he also knew that the situation would only reverse when the North American side formally sued the ruling, just act according to the plan now, anyway, even if the sky falls, there will be Luo Sheng, the big boss, on top, just do your part.

Science and Technology Complex Building.
This afternoon, Qin Weimu came over to report to Luo Sheng on his achievements.
"This net profit of $300 billion, of which $120 billion was made by shorting Bluestar Technology, the CIA's matter can now be determined that Wall Street knows the inside information, otherwise the income from shorting Bluestar Technology can increase by about 140%." Qin Weimu said simply.
In this contest, the first half is over.
Obviously, Qin Weimu is not just a stock of Bluestar Technology, because she knows that this black swan event will cause the global stock index to plummet, and the fact is far beyond her expectations, and the result is also to obtain excess returns.
Of the $300 billion in profits, $160 billion went to the Luo Sheng family fund, and the rest went to Shengfeng Capital.
In fact, it is completely possible to monopolize this profit, but Luo Sheng did not let her do it, a large number of rich people around the world handed over their money to him to take care of, and they had to let them see the tangible benefits, so that they would be more unswerving in their support.
Of course, the current Shengfeng Capital has not disclosed this information, and those rich people do not know that the funds they handed over to Luo Sheng to take care of have generated a considerable income, and now is not the time to tell them.
Luo Sheng is not brainless, offending a group of people has to win over a group of talents, money is not enough, for him, even if he makes more money now, it is only a change in numbers, he cares more about the actual influence.
"The Wall Street guys should have made a lot of money this time, and they should have been washed out in the second half." Luo Sheng said comfortably, Wall Street never thought that there would be a big reversal in the future, they were still thinking about the dream they had never forgotten before-forcing the Cote d'Azur to go public.
Only by going public can we share the outrageous profits of the CΓ΄te d'Azur.
Qin Weimu said lightly: "Just wash it out?" No, they earn too much, it's not reasonable. β
The implication is to remove a piece of meat from the gang on Wall Street, Luo Sheng, who was sitting next to her, silently gave her a thumbs up when he heard it, and the industry gave her the nickname of the financial empress, which is also a ruthless character.
It stands to reason that women are sensual creatures, and they are not suitable for this business, but there are very few exceptions to routines, and Qin Weimu is obviously an exception.
After earning so much this time, she has to earn a bigger wave later, Luo Sheng feels that she must treat her well, and "serve" her comfortably, so that she will play better in the second half......
β¦β¦
Time passed day by day, and the outside world was still carrying out large-scale condemnation of Luo Sheng and his company, and the heat remained high.
There is a tendency for the wall to fall down and everyone to push it, and the drum is broken by 10,000 people.
However, the vast majority of people who jumped out of the well and fell into the well are anonymous, obviously they are still a little weak about Luo Sheng's energy, as the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
The current situation is that everyone seems to feel that Luo Sheng's magical aura is about to be broken, and he is heading towards a trend of prosperity and decline.
At this time, the world's richest people who handed over a huge amount of funds to Luo Sheng to take care of a few years ago were also beating a drum in their hearts, and some people were afraid that Luo Sheng would not survive this hurdle, so they began to contact Shengfeng Capital and asked to redeem their funds with the mentality of giving it a try.
They didn't know that Luo Sheng had already shared a profit with them.
Undoubtedly, the reply given was: no.
The car door has long been welded dead, and it is necessary to redeem its own funds, and wait until the lock-up period has passed, which means that it will have to wait for more than ten years.
In the hustle and bustle of the outside world, Qin Weimu has already begun to lay out the second half of this game.
β¦β¦
Wall Street.
A group of people began to enter and exit the major investment banks on Wall Street, and they were all dressed in suits and leather shoes, and they were the standard successful people and representatives of the elite group in the eyes of ordinary people.
Deutsche Bank.
At a table in the corner of the reception hall by a floor-to-ceiling window, a bank clerk was receiving a customer who had just arrived, a man about forty years old, and his next request made a little incredulous to the Deutsche Bank clerk who was receiving him.
"Wait, Mr. Karl, what did you just say? You said you want to bet on the call option of Bluestar Technology? β
The man named Carl took a sip of coffee and nodded affirmatively: "That's right." β
After the salesman got the other party's response again, he was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but say: "Mr. Carl, do you think the stock price of Bluestar Technology can still go up to this position?" With all due respect, Bluestar Technology is really finished this time, the market value of $900 billion is even overestimated, and it will further fluctuate to the $700 billion range in the future. β
Carl smiled and said, "With the current situation, it's true, but I like to do the opposite. I only care about whether you can do this contract now, if you don't do it then I have to go to other investment banks, my time is precious, please give me your answer. β
When the salesman heard this, he hurriedly said: "Do it, of course do it, why not do it?" Then let's take pay-as-you-go to compensate for breach of contract, and if Bluestar Technology's stock continues to fall, you will have to pay us a monthly premium. β
Carl nodded: "No problem, this is my instruction manual for the fifth level call option of Bluestar Technology." β
After speaking, he took out a thick piece of information from his briefcase, which took several hours to read, and the salesman took the information and browsed it, muttering to himself: "The notional principal of the contract is $220 million, the exercise price is $284.85, the opening price is $427.25, and the maturity settlement price is the average price on the day of contract termination......"
Minutes and seconds passed.
At the end, the salesman sitting opposite Carl closed the information, looked at him and said, "OK, let's sign the contract." β
Karl then said: "I also want to determine the solvency of your bank in the event of default. β
The salesman couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Karl, do you think Deutsche Bank will default on its debts?" Speaking of this, it reminds me of about ten years ago, a private equity manager named Michael came to our bank to gamble on the real estate market, so that the bank lost a lot, he won, our bank did not rely on the debt, credit is fundamental, so please rest assured Mr. Carl. β
"Then I'll rest assured, let's sign the contract."
Soon, the two sides signed the contract, and after Carl put the contract in his briefcase, he casually chatted and asked: "I heard that the salesman who signed the contract with Mr. Michael back then was finally fired by your bank." β
"Huh? Mr. Karl, do you mean you won this bet? And I'm going to get fired for this list? Please, this wasn't ten years ago, times have changed, and the same thing can't happen a second time. The salesman sitting across from Carl said with a smile.
Carl put his briefcase on his lap, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "We'll see." β
After saying that, he left.
Carl still has $780 million in his hand, so he has to continue to negotiate contracts with other banks, and at the same time, there are a group of major investment banking institutions on Wall Street who are running like Carl to bet on the call options of Bluestar Technology.
These people are all employees from some private equity institutions, and they are just performing their work according to the requirements of their bosses, and behind the scenes of those private equity institutions, Qin Weimu is directing them.
For this kind of "sending money" situation, most of the investment banks on Wall Street laughed without much thought, but there are always exceptions, and one investment bank is wary of this kind of pie-in-the-sky good thing.
