When I am reborn in Hong Kong, I just want to lie down

At the end of June 1977, Pacific Rim Fund was very busy recently, but their performance did not improve. The main reason was that investors believed that this success was just good luck of fund manager Smith and a reward for the director's trust in his loyal movie fans. , the actual ability remains to be seen, but it is not without benefits. At least they raised 6 million U.S. dollars. This is the second phase, because the first phase was 300 million U.S. dollars invested by Li Bu. In order to distinguish it, and not to dilute Li Bu cloth investment.

Smith specifically called to ask where to invest in the second phase. Li Bu thought for a while and asked him: "Smith, there is a listed company now called Wal-Mart? Just buy this one. All the funds in this phase will be used to buy this company." of stocks.”

"Boss, your vision can see into the future. I also think this company is very good. All over the Pacific Rim, we will faithfully implement your arrangements."

"The Fuchs project should be ended as soon as possible. We can't take it all, otherwise we will be hated. Then transfer the funds for this period to the Xiangjiang branch. Our big move is about to begin." Li Bu reminded. .

"That's really good news. There's not much left. It will be over soon. I won't have any problems here." Smith was a little excited.

Pan American Foreign Trade Company has recently received a lot of orders from América, mainly for retro ceiling fans. The modified clothing was sold at a low price, which not only paid back the cost, but also made a profit. According to the feedback from the business side, because of the clothing It was relatively novel, but it was sold out later. Liang Xiaoshi looked at the report, looked at Li Bu with admiration, and waited for his answer. Li Bu said helplessly: "Xiao Shi, I said I was lucky. Do you believe it?"

The former secretary shook his head to express disbelief, curled his lips, and turned his head, saying that if you don't say anything, I will be angry, and you can't coax him.

Li Bu had no choice but to go over and hug her from behind: "Be good, maybe Americans like to be independent. I have no other explanation."

Xiaoshi turned around, made a face at him, and said coquettishly: "You've passed the test. I heard the business at the electric fan is good."

"It's not bad. Thanks to the oil crisis, European and American countries are now in energy crisis. Electric fans are their best choice. We can do this business for another two or three years." Li Bu said with some satisfaction: "Electric fans If that doesn’t work, we can do other small household appliances business.”

"Brother Bu, you really have a long-term perspective."

The world between the two was interrupted by a knock on the door. Peter came in from the outside and brought in a report. It was a fax from America. It had been translated. Knowing that the boss was not good at foreign languages, the subordinates were still very considerate. , I have already thought about it for him.

Li Bu took the report and read it carefully. The cost this time was 3000 million U.S. dollars, and the leverage was doubled, totaling 6000 million U.S. dollars. In addition to doubling the stock, the securitized assets also increased significantly, and more leverage was added. High leverage, after deducting taxes and fees, the profit is US$600 million.This time, a total of 7000 million U.S. dollars have been mobilized and are entering Hong Kong through various channels, leaving a reserve of [-] U.S. dollars at the Pacific Rim headquarters in case of emergencies.

Li Bu was naturally very happy to see that the profits were safely pocketed this time. The US$7000 million gave him a lot of confidence.

This year, due to the excessive growth of money and credit, the trade deficit has expanded, inflation has been high, and the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate has continued to decline. In addition, speculative activities have led to a rare rush to buy goods, which has further worsened the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar. This has also given Li Bu got an opportunity and wanted to buy Wharf's shares at US dollars.

Peter saw that his boss was in high spirits. He said next to him: "Boss, this is a great success. It once again proves your wisdom." After speaking, he made an exaggerated gesture, which made Liang Xiaoshi cover her mouth and laugh non-stop. .

She also picked up the fax and opened her mouth wide when she saw that 7000 million U.S. dollars would flow into Hong Kong.I almost shouted.Li Bu took the fax from her hand and said to her: "Xiao Shi, don't let others know about this report!"

"I understand, Brother Bu, I will keep it a secret."

"After the incident here is over and we can stand at the front desk, it will be fine then."

"Hehe...are we going to be the masterminds behind the scenes?"

"It's not that exaggerated. We just don't want to cause fluctuations in the stock price."

……

Pacific Rim Fund's Xiangjiang Branch, on the eighth floor of Today's Building, employees are checking the delivery orders for stocks recently received. The transactions were completed on the same day. It takes two days to get the stock certificates. Through various channels, the fund has received 11.78% of the shares. He spent nearly 1.4 million Hong Kong dollars, which was the majority of his licensing fees and some dividends from Today Media. This year, Today Publishing published three magazines: Young Good, Men Style, and Today Beauty, with innovative and novel content. Let Today Publishing House experience explosive growth.

Smith came to Hong Kong in mid-July. Before that, Peter received shares from some small shareholders. They were eager to exchange for U.S. dollars. Now that the Hong Kong dollar has depreciated sharply, everyone wants to exchange for U.S. dollars. After five years, one U.S. dollar will be exchanged. The knife can even be exchanged for ten Hong Kong dollars on the black market, reaching 5%. In fact, with so many shares, it has become the largest shareholder.

Li Bu personally came to the airport to pick up Smith and his party, and Hu Zhi'an and Zhang Shan also came back together. They stayed outside for too long and sent them to the hotel to catch up on jet lag.

On the third day, Li Bu received them in the conference room of Today Building and thanked them for working hard for the company. Now there was a new challenge waiting for them, such as Wharf. Smith had to leave after being ostracized by his fellow villagers from Xiangjiang. Today he will return as king.

The surname Smith is a very common surname in Daiying, and he himself is also very ordinary. That day, he was recruited to the company by his boss. He strictly followed the boss's orders, and that's what he is today. Now, the boss has given him another very challenging task. The script has been written for the task. As long as he nods his approval, the return of the king will be staged.

Taking the planning book he received from his boss, he read it carefully. He had lived in Xiangjiang for more than six years and was proficient in Xiangjiang dialect and traditional Chinese characters. After closing the planning book, he closed his eyes and thought for a moment. Without disturbing him, those Pacific Rim colleagues and those who knew the inside story also looked at him. After opening his eyes, Smith nodded sharply.

"Boss, I will follow your plan." He said firmly, with light in his eyes.

He wants to let those who are on the street know that he also has a chance to turn around, and the honest people among the British also have tempers. When he becomes the apparent controlling shareholder of Wharf, he will make those people look good.

Li Bu glanced at him appreciatively, patted his shoulder, and approved his choice. Others who didn't know about it were also curious about what task the fund manager had taken on, but they would know tomorrow.
