Chapter 444: A Man Who Can't Predict His Position at All

When Jesse Livermore returned, he called Abraham Cohen.

Before long, a wagon full of hay arrived and quietly carried the body away.

Jesse Livermore dared to enter Zhao Chuanxin's office, but he still felt cold in the back of his head.

He said, "Boss, have you chosen which investment projects?" ”

"Well, I have to invest in these things when I draw a line, and I have to focus on investing in these circles that I draw circles."

Jesse Livermore took a general look and circled out: Gillette Geely Shaver (personal care), Coca-Cola (drink), Bayer (aspirin), Ford (automobile), General Motors (automobile), Chrysler, Union Pacific Railroad, Northern Railroad, Edison Power, American Electric Company, Shell Oil, Kraft Corporation, Carnegie Candy Company, United Juice Company, Philips Airlines, ......

There are a lot of circles, but there are more lines in the back.

It involves automobiles, catering, aerospace, medicine, clothing, retail, energy and other fields.

Jesse Livermore was stunned: "Boss, are you sure you want to invest so widely?" ”

"Of course, especially those companies in heavy industry are required to invest in projects."

Because the stock price of United Copper has plummeted, and all steel industries have fallen sharply, this is an excellent investment opportunity.

"But." Jesse Livermore pointed to Philips Airlines: "Airplanes crash at every turn, but anyone with a small family doesn't dare to sit, what is the future of investing in this?" It's better to do cotton futures. ”

At this time, the aircraft technology and industry had not yet been fully developed, and most people had not yet realized the commercial potential of aircraft, and were still focusing on the traditional manufacturing industry.

Zhao Chuanxin knocked on the table: "There are also several companies that make aircraft, all of them invest in me, even if I lose money." I want to keep a reserve fund and in the future, whenever there is a new aircraft company, whether in the United States or in Europe, we will make additional investments, and we will not let go of any of them, whether they lose money or not. ”

Yes, you have money and willfulness.

Jesse Livermore no longer persuaded him, but asked: "The funds we have at our disposal now, a total of 167 million US dollars, how much do you want to invest, boss?" ”

Every time he thinks of $167 million, Jesse Livermore's heart trembles.

"Take out 150 million and invest it all. Leave $10 million and wait to invest in companies that build airplanes and cars. The remaining $7 million was left in Lawson Trust as working capital. ”

Jesse Livermore was shocked: "Boss, don't you keep any money on yourself?" ”

Like he made money, he wanted to buy a tram, buy a yacht, buy an apartment, and keep a mistress. Thomas S. W. Lawson made money and bought a lot of real estate, including villas in Palm Beach.

The boss is sitting on 150 million US dollars, and he actually took it all out to invest?

Zhao Chuanxin smiled: "Isn't there still a deposit of $7.5 million that hasn't been raised?" I'll wait for that money to arrive and then invest in my weapons workshop. ”

He still has a cash reserve of 100,000 yuan in his secret realm.

Jesse Livermore felt that this was a bit of a bitterness, and that it was unnecessary to be young.

He finally persuaded: "Boss, I think it is also appropriate to enjoy yourself in time, otherwise there is no point in making money." ”

He even wondered if the boss was psychologically twisted? Otherwise, why don't you blink when you kill people, why don't you want to enjoy it after making $167 million?

"For a short life, the things you've been doing these days are very happy.

But for me, the pleasure was too short-lived, and it wasn't as comfortable as being in a slumped chair at home.

Ever heard of a word? It's called pattern. ”

Jesse Livermore shook his head: "I haven't heard of it." ”

"The word comes from Go." Zhao Chuanxin took out a piece of paper and drew 19 lines horizontally and vertically: "There are a total of 361 points here." 324 lattices.

Each grid symbolizes a rule and a standard.

Many lattices come together to symbolize different fields and industries.

The shape of the cloth on top of the lattice, and the shape of these children together, is called a bureau.

Black and white twins, each holding one end, attacking and defending each other.

Defend the corner, connect the edges, and attack the mid-belly.

Both sides lay out for their own purposes.

Lay out on the grid, so how many squares you have in the eye, you can make as big a game.

Saying that a person has a small pattern means that he does not have a big vision, and he can only see a piece of grid under his eyes.

The pattern is small, no matter how smart it is, it can only win the situation in one corner and one place. ”

Jesse Livermore was very smart, so he understood what Go was all about, and said, "This seems to be Chinese chess, it's too complicated." ”

Zhao Chuanxin nodded: "I'm not as smart as you."

In the beginning, I was blind to all corners of the board, and I had nothing to do with it.

But there are many layouts, and I realized that these bureaus that I don't even understand seem to be related.

Surround the enemy's son and make it airless, and then swallow it.

But the criterion for victory is not who eats more, but whose game is bigger.

Swallowing is just a means to win.

Novices are prone to fall into the fun of eating pieces, often because they are addicted to eating pieces, they miss the opportunity to layout, so that their development is limited, and even lose the entire chess game.

If a person does not mess with the other party's eating of children, always maintains his own rhythm and has a pattern in mind, he can win the final victory.

I figured this out, so after coming to the United States, I didn't move the Rockefeller, I didn't move. Morgan. It's not that I don't want to, it's that it's useless. If one Rockefeller falls, there will be another Rockefeller.

I'm also not involved in some of the seemingly important things in our country, which are fleeting compared to the final war.

What's more, I always have a picture in my head of 24 years later, with the roar of fighter jets in the sky, the torrent of steel on the ground, and the ...... of my enemies."

In the 21st century, whoever wants to talk about the pattern will be laughed at.

Even if the word pattern is rotten, 90% of people don't know its specific meaning, anyway, everyone follows the joke.

Jesse Livermore was even more dumbfounded.

He found out that he was the person who had no pattern and was short-sighted as Zhao Chuanxin said.

Throughout Jesse Livermore's life, there were many ups and downs, and the final outcome was not very good, and finally he got depression and shot himself.

Most of the reason is that there is no global view.

What shocked Jesse Livermore the most was that Zhao Chuanxin actually thought about what would happen 24 years later.

In 24 years, in the torrent of history, I can't even make a splash.

But in an individual's life, this time can be regarded as a long time.

24 years, they're all old, right?

Of course, he didn't know how long Zhao Chuanxin's life was.

"Fighters? Is it an airplane? I don't think it's possible, the plane is simply not reliable. It's okay to have a car. ”

Zhao Chuanxin smiled and didn't explain.

Usually no matter who he talks to, he gives people a feeling of being out of tune.

This is the first time he has had a serious argument with someone, not so much to Jesse Livermore, but to Zhao Chuanxin to clarify his thoughts.

Zhao Chuanxin crumpled the paper on the table into a ball and threw it into the trash can accurately: "If I use twenty years to prepare for one thing, I believe that the power of your faith will not be able to stop me!" Alright, let's get to work. ”

Zhao Chuanxin sighed behind his desk.

There are some things that you can't stop once you start.

He misses Lugang Town, his home, the sunlight through the floor-to-ceiling lattice windows in the living room and the pulped chaise longue.

The next day, the National Commercial Bank halted its commercial settlement with the New Yorker Trust Company, and the New Yorker Trust Company suffered a run and collapsed.

Because the investigative committee could not determine whether the New Yorker Trust had enough assets to weather the situation as collateral, Morgan Sr. decided not to bail it out.

At this time, the interbank borrowing ratio grew to 139%.

Lose your marbles.

On October 24, 1907, the presidents of the banking industry gathered in Morgan's office to listen to his instructions, and the elder Morgan announced that he would raise money to save the market.

This is to boost public confidence.

However, at the same time as he announced the bailout, a new Wall Street Journal was released.

A piece of news caused a public uproar.

"Zhao Chuanxin made $50 million in the crisis".

The three words "Zhao Chuanxin" are enough to dazzle the eye, and the $50 million is even more eye-catching.

At this time, He Zhan was reading a report to Kang Youwei: "Chen Yigeng is Zhao Chuanxin, Jesse Livermore and Thomas W. Lawson both worked for Zhao Chuanxin. The boss behind the scenes turned out to be the butcher of the Far East......"

Kang Youwei laughed heartily: "Happy people's hearts, when they are white!" ”

Situ Meitang, who has been discharged from the hospital, is also reading the newspaper: "Zhao Chuanxin took advantage of the greed of the Fritz Heinze brothers to make a huge amount of $50 million in the crisis......"

Situ Meitang gasped.

At this point, this amount is astronomical to him.

Zhen Chen Yigeng was speechless: "Big guy, is this true?" Did he really make $50 million? Will this money fill the house? ”

"Mr. Zhao is unpredictable, maybe it's true or not. But his identity was revealed, and I pinched a sweat for him. ”

"Who dares to mess with him?" Chen Yigeng smiled bitterly, his reputation was stinky.

He went out now and reported his name as "Chen Yigeng", but everyone else hid far away, and the police didn't even dare to find out his details.

The elegant Abraham Cohen also read the newspaper, sat up straight, and said to Grenville Harper next to him, "This is not true, is it? The boss is Zhao Chuanxin? ”

Grenville Harper was taken aback: "What? Zhao Chuanxin? Butcher of the Far East? ”

The news even crossed the ocean, through the telegraph line at the bottom of the sea, and was transmitted to the East.

Forbidden City, Cixi's Palace.

Aixin Jueluo Zaifeng took the newspaper and said: "Lafayette, Zhao Chuanxin has news, he is now in the United States." ”

Cixi's dizzy old eyes widened slightly: "What did this evil spirit do in the United States?" Let's hope he's dead there. ”

Aixin Jueluo Zaifeng hesitated: "He didn't die, and he took advantage of the stock market crash on Wall Street to make $50 million." ”

Let's just say it's not angry.

Cixi was really angry, and scolded: "Good people don't live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years!" ”

In Vietnam, Sun Gongwu received the news and sighed: "Wen has an economic way, and Wu can go on the horse and kill thieves." Mr. Zhao is really a strange person. ”

Huang Xing's eyes lit up: "He earned 50 million US dollars, if we are willing to contribute to the revolution, we will have a better chance of winning." ”

"Uh...... This one? Sun Gongwu obviously didn't have the slightest confidence in this, so he could only change the topic: "Thinking about it, this time the Americans are really afraid of him to the bone - blood is splashed for five steps and thousands of miles without staying, and he has to earn their silver, hehe." ”

Hong Kong Island, Xuantianzong headquarters, Li Guangzong took the newspaper and finished reading it, looked up to the sky and sighed: "Sir, he is really a man who can't predict the position at all!" However, if Mr. Xiang Lai has made so much money, it should be that he has abundant funds, or he can fund Xuantian Sect one or two, and we have now fallen into a bottleneck! ”
