Chapter 0154: The Request of the French Rose (Wan More Requests for Subscriptions, Asks for Monthly Passes)
It's the end of September.
"Quick, Chen, do the math, how much profit have we made?"
Waleed impatiently urged Lu Qing.
Just today, Lu Qing finally returned all the last short pounds to the relevant institutions.
This total of $15 billion in short selling operations can be regarded as a complete end.
Although the British government announced a few days ago that the British pound would no longer implement a fixed exchange rate system and completely withdraw from the ERM, the most important thing is to make money.
Although Lu Qing had already learned the answer through the system simulation, he still gathered it at Waleed's urging.
After a few minutes, he smiled at Waleed:
"In this operation, we used a total of $15 billion to pull from short lito pound sterling, and then long interest rate futures...... The total net profit is 20 billion, of which His Royal Highness the Prince will contribute 3 billion, so you can share - 4 billion US dollars. ”
"$4 billion?"
Hearing this number, Waleed's eyes widened, and his face instantly turned red.
In one month, you can make $4 billion!
Rao, as Prince Walid Saud, couldn't help but be overjoyed.
After all, the 4 billion was earned by his empty glove white wolf, which is equivalent to picking it up for nothing, which is far more exciting than making a profit with his real money.
"Thank you, Chen!"
Prince Waleed grabbed Lu Qing's hand and shook it excitedly, and said gratefully: "If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to witness how you defeated the Bank of England in such an exciting thing, let alone earned me $4 billion!" ”
"Waleed, in your words, I am your friend, and there is no need to be so polite between friends."
Lu Qing said with a smile.
As the contact time with Waleed became longer, Lu Qing had already discovered that Waleed's nature was still good, except for his unstable personality and occasional off-line, and he was willing to make friends with this kind of person.
"Yes, Chen, you're right, we're friends, don't talk about outsiders!"
Waleed hugged Lu Qing hard.
At this time, his eyes swept over the TV and saw that the media reporter was interviewing Soros of the Quantum Fund.
"It's disgusting that this guy shamelessly put the reputation of defeating the Bank of England on his head!"
Waleed said disdainfully: "The most important thing is that, according to media reports, his quantum fund has only earned a total of 3 billion US dollars, which is not as much as I made, not to mention comparing with Chen, and I am embarrassed to say on TV that I defeated England by myself, Chen, he has completely robbed you of your reputation!" ”
"Haha, my friend, it doesn't have to be like this, wouldn't it be nice to make a fortune quietly?"
Lu Qing said with a smile, saying that he didn't care about these false names.
As long as his fame is enough in South Korea.
"Alas, you're good at everything, but you're too cautious, what's the point of living like this?"
Waleed shook his head.
As a Saudi prince, he has long been accustomed to acting flamboyantly, but he will not care about that - a few days ago, at a banquet, he told him about shorting the pound.
Of course, he didn't mention Lu Qing's name, let alone say that Lu Qing led this matter.
Lu Qing smiled slightly, without explaining too much.
"By the way, Chen, although this is a bit of an outrage, I can't ask my friend to help in vain."
Waleed suddenly thought of something, and said: "It just so happens that these two days are the London Boat Show, let's go, I'll buy a yacht for you!" ”
"Yachts?"
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, waved his hand and refused: "No, Walid, I ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was seriously interrupted by Waleed: "Hey, Chen, we're friends, aren't we?" If a friend helps you and you don't say anything at all, do you think it's appropriate? ”
"This ...... Okay, but you definitely can't buy something too expensive, otherwise I won't want anything. ”
Seeing Waleed's insistence, Lu Qing had to agree.
"Don't worry, I can't afford it if it's too expensive."
Waleed smiled and put his arm around Lu Qing's shoulders and drove to the yacht show together.
……
Soon, the two came to the London Boat Show.
I saw that the banks of the Thames River were already occupied by all kinds of yachts, row upon row, shining brightly in the sun.
As soon as they got out of the car, a casually dressed man greeted them with a smile.
"His Royal Highness Prince Waleed, Director Chen Daojun, welcome!"
"This is ......"
Lu Qing was a little strange.
"Chen, let me introduce you, this is the manager of the Dutch Heesen yacht company, De Vrij, I bought my last yacht from him, and it feels pretty good."
Waleed introduced Lu Qing.
After the two sides met, De Vrij warmly welcomed Lu Qing and the others to the front of the yacht shown on the side.
"Prince Waleed, Director Chen Daojun, please take a look, these three yachts in front of you are the newly designed yacht styles of our company......"
Before De Vrij finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Walid: "No, no, no, De Vrij, these three are too small, I want a bigger one, preferably fifty meters, understand?" ”
Hearing this, De Vrij's eyes suddenly lit up.
A fifty-meter yacht is worth tens of millions of dollars!
Coupled with hard and soft decoration, 20 million is not impossible.
Thinking of this, the smile on De Vriley's face became more and more sincere: "It's my fault, please come with me, and I will introduce you to our company's top design products!" ”
Lu Qing didn't follow immediately, and said in a low voice: "Walid, you don't need to buy too expensive ......"
He could naturally see the change in De Vriley's expression just now, and knew that this was the standard expression of the big dog slaughterer.
"It's not expensive, it's not expensive, you just come with me."
Waleed didn't care at all, and should follow first.
Lu Qing was helpless, thinking that he didn't pay for it himself anyway, so he went.
Then, the group turned a few corners and came to another area where yachts are more sparse, where the length of yachts is generally much longer, all of them are three- or four-story structures, but they look very atmospheric.
At this moment, Lu Qing's gaze suddenly paused and looked at the yacht on the side.
There, Sophie Marceau, dressed in a floral dress, was lying on the railing of the yacht chatting with friends.
The breeze blows, the skirt flutters, her white jade-like legs loom in the sky, and at the same time, the skirt is close to her body, outlining her delicate curves.
seemed to notice Lu Qing's eyes, and Sophie Marceau also looked at him.
After seeing that it was Lu Qing, Sophie Marceau was obviously stunned, and then beckoned with a smile:
"Hey, Chen!"
Her voice immediately attracted the attention of all the people around her.
Lu Qing didn't expect Sophie Marceau, as a big star, to greet herself so unabashedly.
But of course, he didn't care about this, and he also waved in response, and then made a gesture to ask if it was inconvenient for him to go over.
- Compared with choosing a yacht, of course, it is more important to chat with beautiful women.
Sophie Marceau nodded with a smile, then answered with her friend, and quickly got off the yacht to greet Lu Qing.
Seeing this, Lu Qing wondered in his heart, you must know that the last time he and Sophie Marceau were separated, it was not very harmonious, why did Sophie Marceau behave like an old friend who had not seen each other for many years?
With doubts in his heart, Lu Qing's face did not show anything.
When he came to the ramp of the yacht, Sophie Marceau also came down.
"Hey Chen, long time no see!"
She smiled and opened her arms, gave Lu Qing a look, and hugged Lu Qing.
"yes, long time no see."
Lu Qing cooperated and hugged her.
Then, I heard Sophie Marceau whisper quickly in her ear: "Chen, help me deal with those boring people, and I'll give you my contact information, how about it?" ”
Lu Qing blinked.
This plot routine is familiar, and it is common in the city.
But
Who made her Sophie Marceau, Lu Qing really has no reason to refuse-
"Plus a meal in the evening."
Sophie Marceau couldn't help but be stunned, as if she didn't expect Lu Qing to take the opportunity to increase the price, but she reacted quickly:
"Deal!"
