I have to sigh that this dinner is like a hodgepodge, and the messy contents are all arranged together.

With the end of the charity donation, a group of artists were arranged to perform the show. The kind of artists in Hong Kong's second- and third-tier artists.

Li Yuan and Huang Jiaojiao admired it with great interest for a while, and found that a certain man was staring at a group of cool girls dancing with them, and the eldest sister was directly kicked.

"Huh? Jiaojiao, what's wrong? ”

"Hmph." In public, Huang Jiaojiao will still give face to stinky men, "Why don't you eat sweet soup?" It's getting cold. ”

"Oooh!" Li Yuan casually scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, "Jiaojiao, has it been in a recession recently?" Even these people came to sing in the church? ”

Huang Jiaojiao glanced at her suspiciously: "Isn't it?" You were looking at the ones behind them, right? ”

"Hey! Vinegar lady, am I this kind of person? I looked at them a few more moments just now, and wondered why they were in rags. "How is it possible to admit such a thing? That's not a proposition?

"Ahem, ahem." Huang Jiaojiao almost didn't choke to death. This stinky man just knows how to have a beard.

"Wow! Yuan Shao, Mrs. Li, are you also there? In the middle of the conversation, I heard someone say hello. It turned out to be Jerry Wu and his female companion, that is, the female secretary, "What a coincidence, let's sit together!" ”

"It's a coincidence. It's the best angle to watch the show here! Huang Jiaojiao still had a hint of jealousy.

Jerry Wu was a little strange, looked at the lookout, and then "poofed" and smiled: "Oh, Mrs. Li, those are flat molds." Rest assured, I know all their agents. If you don't look for it, you can expect to receive it within five minutes. I confess, I'm the second and fifth boy with little fate! Hahaha! ”

Flat mold is a flat model. The flat mold in Hong Kong is not the same profession as the flat mold in the mainland later. But...... It's almost a tender mold! It belongs to the atmosphere group and ...... in the banquet Men should understand.

Of course, the circle of the flat die is also quite large. If Li Yuan needs it, there will be a horse boy like Jerry Wu to contact. As for whether it will be reported to Huang Jiaojiao? Let's just believe it!

Sure enough, Huang Jiaojiao glared at Li Yuan and Jerry Wu viciously. The ghost will believe the man's mouth.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Yuan hurriedly changed the topic: "Jerry, why did I invite you too?" Isn't it just a horse racing champion, and not a horse king? Uncle Xiong, is there too much money and it's hot? ”

"Haha!" Jerry Wu was happy. Seeing that there was no one else around, he whispered, "Of course it's for the Han Palace." ”

"Han Palace? Does he want a loan? ”

Jerry Wu nodded with a smile: "The Xiongye family was born in textile and garment, and he also opened a lot of factories back then, and he became a Justice of the Peace and a member of the Jockey Club. Later, I prepared for my eldest son to take over and send him to study abroad, and when I came back, I ......"

The story told by Jerry Wu is a very old-fashioned story of the rich second generation - after the rich second generation has studied abroad, he looks down on the traditional industry at home and wants to show his skills and start industrial transformation.

Of course, there will definitely be a transformation of the financial industry, the real estate industry, and all kinds of whimsical entrepreneurship.

At the beginning, with the bull market in the housing market and the stock market, Xiongye's family did make a lot of money. But in the face of this financial crisis, all of a sudden, the funds were tight and unlucky......

Li Yuan couldn't cry or laugh. I see, this will invite myself and Jerry Wu, the drunkard does not mean to drink!

"Yuan Shao, you give me an idea, should I take out a loan to Xiongye?"

"Take care of yourself! For the sake of the face of the three-headed abalone, you can symbolically borrow some. Decent face to school"

"Understood!" Jerry Wu understood what it meant. Anyway, the Han Palace is rich now, as long as it lends money, even if the conditions are harsh, it will be very face-saving.

"Therefore, I can't lose my family by eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, and I am most afraid that I will start my own business." Li Yuan laughed.

Jerry Wu also smiled and nodded: "Master Xiong's family is not bad, and the investment strategy is still very conservative." They bought a lot of Peregrine's bonds and funds, it seems to be in the lock-up period, right? So the turnover is not working. Otherwise, they don't even have the interest to come over, after all, they still have high-quality assets in their hands. ”

"Huh."

Regarding Jerry Wu's judgment, Li Yuan is still relatively relieved. However, at this moment, he seemed to hear a name from memory: "Wait a minute, Peregrine?" ”

"That's right! You should know about the lack of fate, right? Our Forbes 500 investment bank in Hong Kong? ”

Li Yuan still felt that his memory was a little vague. Should...... It's not going to be a big deal, is it?

It stands to reason that if Peregrine is so famous, he should be impressed. But vaguely heard of this name? It can't be a negative textbook, right?

Seeing Li Yuan's expression change, Jerry Wu also became serious: "Yuanshao, is there something wrong?" ”

Li Yuan touched his chin: "Jerry, I want you one thing, if we hadn't determined more than a year ago that the front was shrinking before and after the return, what would happen to the current Han Palace?" ”

"Huh?" Jerry Wu immediately frowned, "That's it...... It should also encounter this financial turmoil, and there will be some losses...... Right? ”

So far, everyone still thinks that this is just a "financial turmoil", not a "financial crisis". I still feel that it is within the controllable range.

"And what about Peregrine?" Li Yuan asked again.

Jerry Wu was startled, hesitated for a few seconds, and hurriedly took out the eldest brother: "Yuan Shao, you wait, I'll inquire." ”

A few minutes later, Jerry Wu also had an ugly face, and said: "Yuan Shao, I asked a friend, Peregrine has indeed been in trouble recently." They have just underwritten the bonds of the Indonesian bus company, and it is a stud. I didn't expect to suddenly encounter this financial turmoil. Also, I heard that they have been looking for buyers recently and want to sell some high-quality assets to the outside world. ”

"So? Will there be a problem? ”

"Probably not...... Right? Jerry Wu is also not very sure, "Peregrine's stock price has not fallen much, and it should be very supportable." And they've always had a good reputation. Trouble, you should endure it and it will pass, right? ”

"Huh? Bear with me? Li Yuan almost burst out laughing. As soon as you hear the name "Indonesia", you know that something is wrong with Peregrine.

According to common sense, utilities such as buses have always been extremely risky and have stable returns, and have always been the first choice for the highest level of investment. But the scale of this financial crisis is too large, and Peregrine will definitely not die and shed a layer of skin.

"There is less fate, what's wrong?" Jerry Wu hurriedly asked, "Is it possible for us to short a wave of short-term ......?"

"Ahem! We're not going to fall into the ground. Li Yuan blurted out.

Jerry Wu suddenly realized: "Then ...... we?" ”

"Huh. It has nothing to do with me! The Han Palace could not be used either. Li Yuan smiled, "I won't care about your business." Go find the second brother and the east brother yourself! Also, don't be greedy, just get a few million pocket money. Don't be a hated bird. ”

"Received, received!" Jerry Wu's face was happy. As long as Huang Dongsheng and Tie Zhidong come out, isn't it possible to balance both black and white? There is no risk in this extra money. Of course, when the time comes, I will also give the third sister a meaning, anyway, it has nothing to do with the lack of fate.

Huang Jiaojiao and the female secretary chatted about the gossip between women, and they were too lazy to care about the men's. I didn't know that Li Yuan and Jerry Wu were ready to make a little extra money......

……

In fact, Li Yuan's memory is not wrong, the Peregrine incident of that year once caused a sensation in the entire East and Southeast Asia. It was just that the mainland was not well-informed at that time, so it did not have much impact. That's why my memory is a little blurry.

Hong Kong Peregrine Investment Group was not established for a long time, that is, in September 1988. It was formed on the ruins of the 1987 stock market crash in Hong Kong, and the organizers were Liang Botao and William Du, who also worked at Citibank at that time. They have been on their own for less than 10 years.

However, in such a short period of time, Peregrine has grown from a company to a listed company with total assets of HK$24 billion and a market capitalization of HK$12.6 billion.

Hong Kong's largest securities group, which includes financing, investment, securities, commodity futures, foreign exchange brokerage and asset management, is also the most powerful and influential investment bank in Asia outside Japan, and ranks among the world's top 500 companies

The founders of Peregrine, they have also become the most prominent figures in the Hong Kong stock market. In the eyes of many, Peregrine's success is a true miracle.

Therefore, Peregrine is now like a day, especially in recent years, the real estate market and the stock market have made Peregrine a legend in the minds of Hong Kong citizens.

So in this context, no one would think that there would be anything wrong with Peregrine. Especially in the double bull market, it has a large number of high-quality assets, and it is impossible to have a lot of risks.

Of course, Peregrine does have a large number of high-quality assets. But the subsequent Peregrine incident was also very dramatic, a very unexpected black goose incident.

However, at this time, even Li Yuan did not dare to guarantee that Peregrine would really have an accident. It's just a matter of using this information to make a profit on the stock market......

"Distinguished guests. Once again, we congratulate Xiongye on his victory in this Jockey Club. Let's invite Xiongye to the stage and say a few good words? The host was full of passion and brought the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax.

In the thunderous applause, Xiongye walked to the stage with a laugh: "Thank you!" Thank you for coming. Recently, the economy seems to be a bit bad outside, and even we in Hong Kong have been affected a little. But I don't think the problem is just a little wind and waves? We'll be safe for sure. Here, I'll throw bricks and lead the way, can I get a few words first? ”

"Good!"

"That's in the new year, '98! We are all the best, and we will succeed immediately! ”

"Good!"

"Guys, can't I sing a one-man show alone? Now please ......"

"Wow! It's an honor to ......"

“……”

The people present were invited to the stage one after another, and these people will definitely not be disappointed, they also have all kinds of beautiful words, which can be regarded as some New Year's greetings!

Finally, it was Li Yuan's turn: "Now there is less fate!" As a rising star, Yuan Shao is so majestic and sharp! He is proud of all of us Chinese in the United States. The future of our Hong Kong depends on them! Welcome him up a few words! ”

In the applause, Li Yuanle came to the stage: "Uncle Xiong has won the award, then I will also offer a few ugly words." I wish you all a ...... in the new year."

Like everyone else, after a few words of congratulations, Li Yuan waved his hand and prepared to step down.

However, at this moment, the host suddenly asked: "Yuan Shao, you haven't shown up for a long time, we miss you very much!" ”

Amidst the laughter, the host continued: "Yuanshao, what do you think about the recent Hong Kong economy? ”

Li Yuan glanced at the male master beside him, he knew that this must have been discussed in advance. But......?

"Hehe, of course I hope Hong Kong is good. Hong Kong is good, we can all get rich! "Anyway, anyone can say pretty things.

"Oh? Fang Sheng's stock market has fallen so much, are you still optimistic? ”

"That's for sure."

"Wow! Thank you for your support. We in Hong Kong are united, and no storm will break us. ”

"Huh. Of course, we have to be in the same boat. I'm here to announce it! Our Han Palace will launch a loan support program to lend money as quickly as possible. It doesn't help much, but it can save the emergency. As our return to the Hong Kong community. ”

Thunderous applause.

Li Yuan didn't think so at all. In this way, the money is not too much, and it is just enough to block the mouth of the male master. Anyway, it's "huh"! There are no cherry blossoms if there are too many

"Thank you! Thank you. We hope that there will be more of these tycoons to support our economy in Hong Kong. We prefer you to be the guiding light and point us out a way to make money? ”

The audience laughed.

Li Yuan smiled: "It's very simple, huh? It's ......"

At this moment, a flash of inspiration occurred in Li Yuan's mind, and he suddenly changed his words: "It's to unite and buy my company's shares?" ”

The crowd laughed! I thought it was Li Yuan joking.

At the time just now, what Li Yuan wanted was to embrace the mainland!

But it suddenly occurred to him that the current situation of financial crisis, even East Asia and Southeast Asia, is a chicken feather, how can these people believe in the economy of the mainland? As mentioned before, they are collectively optimistic about the decline of the mainland economy.

In that case, you can take advantage of this situation, right?

You can really not fall into the well. But it's okay to take advantage of this information gap, so let's teach them a lesson, right?

……

The dinner was a complete success, and all the guests were satisfied.

Jerry Wu acted quickly here, and they used other private accounts to buy a lot of Peregrine's short selling orders.

Of course, he also gave an explanation to Xiongye and promised to lend a sum of money. However, just by agreeing and taking advantage of the formalities, the Han Palace is constantly delaying.

In any case, in less than half a year, Hong Kong will face the financial crisis head-on and endure waves of turbulent waves. When that time comes, again!

But no one thought that the Peregrine incident would break out so quickly, and it would scorch everyone's thunder on the outside and on the inside......
