Egypt.

The Egyptian Intelligence Service, formerly the Egyptian General Intelligence Service, is recognized as one of the "most advanced intelligence agencies in Africa" ​​and played an important role in countering Israel's war.

Just as Ye Fang was flying from the capital to Hong Kong, Hassan, the current director of the Egyptian Intelligence Agency, intercepted an important piece of intelligence related to the United States. The intelligence showed that Al Qaeda would organize a terrorist attack against the United States in the next few months. The preliminary plan It was a hijacking of a commercial airliner that crashed into an iconic American building.

Hasson immediately called the U.S. Pentagon personally and relayed the intelligence information.

After the U.S. Pentagon learned of the intelligence, it immediately convened a top security meeting headed by U.S. President Bush. The entire meeting lasted for five hours at the Pentagon, after which this piece of information fell into obscurity.

Subsequently, Hassan, the Egyptian Intelligence Agency, received a reply from the U.S. Pentagon, confirming that this intelligence was just a hoax, intended to disrupt the U.S. security system, and it could be automatically filtered out by the Egyptian Intelligence Agency.

Hassen put down the phone, looked confused, and said, "Automatic filtering? So casual! At least basic precautions should be taken!" But after all, the intelligence involved the United States, and the United States didn't care. Egypt didn't bother to worry about it. Anyway, it had given advance warning to You, don't come to me if something happens.

A luxury private plane landed at Xiangjiang International Airport. Lu Jiaming from Zhongrui Capital had already prepared the car on the tarmac. Ye Fang and his party got off the plane and got into the car without exchanging greetings, and quickly drove away from the airport.

After Ye Fang and his group left the airport, a black car followed them closely.

"Mr. Ye, should we go to the hotel first, or go directly to the base?" Lu Jiaming asked.

"Go to the company." Ye Fang said.

"Okay!" Lu Jiaming immediately told the driver to go to the headquarters of Zhongrui Capital.

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Cai told me some time ago to decouple the headquarters from Zhongrui Capital. Is there any problem?" Lu Jiaming asked.

"Jia Ming, no matter what happens in the future, your responsibility is to run Zhongrui Capital well. Don't worry about anything else. Don't believe it. Do you understand?" Ye Fang said.

"I understand, don't worry, I will definitely manage Zhongrui Capital well." Lu Jiaming said solemnly.

Ye Fang nodded with satisfaction and said nothing.

Lu Jiaming accompanied Ye Fang into the Zhongrui Capital Building. All employees stood up and looked carefully at Ye Fang next to Lu Jiaming. Ye Fang motioned for all employees to sit down and continue working, and only Lu Jiaming walked into the conference room.

Lu Jiaming in the conference room reported to Ye Fang the entire capital layout. The report included stock index, foreign exchange, gold and oil futures. The investment area covered stock index futures in major financial centers around the world. Hundreds of billions of dollars with triple leverage were invested in mainland China. Jiaming just buys, buys, buys 24 hours a day. Lu Jiaming is now completely immune to the amount of funds. Now he feels that tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars are just like coins in his eyes.

Lu Jiaming feels that he is now a super financial tycoon, comparable to those big guys in the West who are stirring up trouble in the capital market.

"There will be another amount of funds coming in soon, and it must be invested before the end of August." Ye Fang is very satisfied with Lu Jiaming's work efficiency.

"How many more?" Lu Jiaming asked tremblingly.

"1000 billion U.S. dollars!" This 1000 billion U.S. dollars includes the funds mobilized by Jiutian, as well as the RMB-converted U.S. dollars mobilized by Ye Fang in the mainland and the funds in the Middle East and South Africa. To put it bluntly, this is the funds Ye Fang originally planned to mobilize. Now Lu Jiaming's trading funds were all earned by Ye Fang in Turkey by sniping at the Turkish lira like a white wolf with nothing. In other words, this part of the funds directly robbed Western capital, allowing Western capital to leave after only earning a handling fee. .

"So much?!" Lu Jiaming is now in awe of Ye Fang's ability to mobilize funds. With more than 2000 billion U.S. dollars, the capital after adding leverage exceeds 5000 billion. The income from a slight fluctuation in the capital market is astronomical. It is very likely to be the annual GDP of a small country.

If Ye Fang can succeed in arbitrage this time, he will probably be the richest person in the world, at least the richest Chinese.

Ye Fang nodded and said, "Remember to set aside some funds to attack the Japanese stock market."

"I'm personally watching the Japanese stock market. The relevant capital layout has already been prepared and I'm just waiting for your order." Lu Jiaming said solemnly.

"Okay, let's do this for now. If I don't have anything else to do in the past two months, I will always be here. I will find an opportunity to go to the base. You just need to arrange a place for me to live in the base. When trading, I will be there the whole time." Ye Fang said.

"Okay, I'll arrange this." Lu Jiaming agreed.

At this time, Secretary Lu Jiaming knocked on the door and came in, telling Lu Jiaming that Yang Mingzhen from Warner Pictures had arrived.

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Yang knows that you are here and insists on seeing you." Lu Jiaming said.

Ye Fang paused slightly and said, "Let her come in."

Lu Jiaming waved to the secretary, who soon walked into the office with Yang Mingzhen and another woman wearing a headscarf. Yang Mingzhen was very excited when he saw Ye Fang. He stepped forward and said quickly, "Hello, Mr. Ye! Who is this?"

Suddenly, the face of the woman covered with gauze appeared behind her. It was Lan Xin who stayed at Warner Films.

"Hello, Brother Ye!" Lan Xin originally wanted to throw herself directly into Ye Fang's arms, but stopped suddenly. At this time, Ye Fang was filled with a sense of oppression in front of Yang Mingzhen and Lan Xin. He was no longer the peaceful Ye Fang before. .

Ye Fang smiled and said, "We're all here. Come sit down and let's chat together."

The secretary personally brought Yang Mingzhen an oversized chair to accommodate her fat body. After sitting down, Yang Mingzhen reported to Ye Fang on the recent developments of Warner Films. Yang Mingzhen knew that Ye Fang really had no interest in specific business operations, so after a few introductions, he brought the topic to Lan Xin.

"The movie Blue Heart Girl is about to be released. She is really talented. Several big directors are rushing to work with her." Yang Mingzhen said with a smile.

Hearing Yang Ming's genuine praise, Lan Xin smiled and said, "It's all Mr. Yang who gave me the opportunity, otherwise I would still be just a walk-on."

Ye Fang nodded with satisfaction and said, "As long as you like it, just be happy. If you learn more from Mr. Yang in the future, you will definitely be a big star in the future."

"Mr. Ye, will you stay here for a long time?" Lan Xin asked.

Ye Fang nodded and said, "It will take a while."

"Then you'd better go live in the villa in Deep Water Bay." After Lan Xin said this, she quickly added, "I haven't lived there a few times, and it's still vacant. Mr. Yang found an apartment for me in the city center. , more convenient for work.”

"Okay, I'll give it back to you after I leave Xiangjiang. I'll consider it as a loan." Ye Fang said with a smile.

"That was originally yours, not a borrowed one." Lan Xin emphasized.

"Mr. Ye, what are you doing here this time? Is it the investment thing you talked about at the last meeting in Beijing?" Yang Mingzhen, who comes from the entertainment industry, loves gossip. After asking this question, he looked at Lu Jiaming carefully, Lu Jiaming told Yang Mingzhen not to ask around with his eyes.

Ye Fang said nonchalantly, "Yes."

"Mr. Ye, can I buy some? I asked Mr. Lu, but he wouldn't tell me and said it was a trade secret." Yang Mingzhen deliberately rolled his eyes at Lu Jiaming.

Ye Fang was very satisfied with Lu Jiaming's approach. He glanced at Lu Jiaming with praise, then turned to Yang Mingzhen and said, "For you, you can buy some gold. Women love gold anyway, whether it is for investment or for personal use." good."

Ye Fang's words are not investment advice. Even if there is no incident in the United States, gold will rise sooner or later. After listening to Ye Fang's words, Yang Mingzhen nodded seriously and said, "I have learned to make money in these years. It seems that in addition to buying a house, it is also good to buy some gold. Okay, thank you Mr. Ye!"

Little did Ye Fang know that these words slipped out of Yang Mingzhen's mouth unintentionally, and he immediately started to dislike the rush to buy gold in the entertainment industry. These celebrities who have worked hard for many years in the entertainment industry are all worth a lot of money. Usually, in addition to buying luxury goods, I also buy diamonds and jewelry. When I learned that I can make money by buying gold, I immediately invested a lot of money in the gold market to buy physical gold or paper gold. This actually directly raised the price of gold, causing a lot of problems for Western capital to control the gold market. trouble.

That night, Ye Fang took everyone directly into the villa in Deep Water Bay. Lu Jiaming and Yang Mingzhen arranged a small dinner in the villa to invite Zhongrui Capital and its core management, including Warner Film and Television and Executives of two listed companies of China Shipping Lines. In order to express his anger, Yang Mingzhen also brought a dozen celebrities from Warner to the banquet to add to the fun. Most of these stars had talents. Their singing, dancing and impromptu teasing made the whole banquet more colorful.

Nan Yi, who was standing on the second floor of the villa, looked at Ye Fang who was surrounded by warblers and was silent. Lu Jiuge on the side asked carefully, "Why don't you go over?"

"I'm not a man, so I can't do this!" After saying that, Nan Yi turned around and went back to the room. When Lu Jiuge, Feidao and others saw Nan Yi's reaction, they all looked like they were watching a show. These people now understood Ye Fang's side. industries, including Xiangjiang’s entertainment industry. Seeing those stars on TV not far away, everyone felt a little incredible and unbelievable. No matter how hard they thought, they couldn't understand that these people would be so flattering to Ye Fang.

The banquet broke up after ten o'clock. A popular star from Warner asked Yang Mingzhen if he wanted to stay with him to sleep with him. Yang Mingzhen knew that Ye Fang was not good at all, so he refused directly and asked people to send these people home. .

After that, Yang Mingzhen also went back, and Lu Jiaming was the only one left in the villa. A slightly tipsy Ye Fang and Lu Jiaming sat on the sofa in the vestibule and talked.

"Jiaming, do you know why I want to separate Zhongrui Capital from the group?" Ye Fang asked.

Lu Jiaming thought for a moment and said, "Is it to isolate risks?"

Ye Fang nodded, but did not answer directly. Instead, he continued, "Zhongrui Capital has actually been an independent existence in terms of shareholder structure since its establishment. This time, we separated the finance from the headquarters because we saw you. Bian's management has been on track. And you have used your ability to prove that I was right to hand over Zhongrui Capital to you."

"Everything I have is given by Mr. Ye, and I will do my best to do a good job at Zhongrui Capital." Lu Jiaming promised.

Ye Fang turned back to look at Lu Jiaming and asked solemnly, "Jiaming, can I trust you?"

Hearing Ye Fang's question, Lu Jiaming's heartbeat immediately accelerated and his adrenaline surged. Lu Jiaming suddenly stood up from his seat and said with a blushing face, "Mr. Ye, brother Ye, you can definitely trust me! I use the luck of the third generation of my Lu family to assure you that I will always be worthy of your trust." Brother! Subordinates and employees! You can always leave your back to me!"

Ye Fang was in a very excited mood under the influence of alcohol, but he was already past the age of impulsiveness. He waved his hand with satisfaction and signaled Lu Jiaming to sit down, and then said, "Okay, after the project ends in September, I will It was arranged this way..."

Nan Yi, who was in the room, looked at Ye Fang and Lu Jiaming in the courtyard, who were talking privately, and muttered, "They must be planning something harmful to others again."

After sending Lu Jiaming away, Ye Fang sat alone in the yard drinking red wine, wondering what he was thinking. Ye Fang stayed at the villa in Deep Water Bay for several days. Lu Jiaming would arrive at the villa at a fixed time and leave after a certain period of time.

No one knew about Ye Fang's return to Hong Kong except for the few people around him. Three days later was the premiere of Lan Xin's movie "The Girl with a Thousand Faces". Although Ye Fang promised Lan Xin to go to the show, he didn't want to So flamboyant. After that, Yang Mingzhen prepared two movie tickets for the premiere for Ye Fang and Nan Yi. At Ye Fang's request, the premiere was at the back.

This was the first time Nan Yi went to see a movie in his whole life. He was very excited. He pulled Ye Fang to ask questions like a little girl, which made Ye Fang feel helpless. Even Luo Zhong was driving the car and Lu Jiuge was sitting in the passenger seat. I also laughed secretly in my heart.

Lan Xin is the action actress that Warner Pictures is promoting this year, so all the stars that Warner Pictures can attend were present at the premiere. Heavyweight media and film critics from Hong Kong and Taiwan were also invited, making the scene very grand.

Nan Yi held Ye Fang's arm and stopped not far away to watch Lan Xin walk out of the car with the movie's male protagonist. There were photographers on both sides of the red carpet. Under the bombardment of flashes, Lan Xin completed her movie red carpet. First show.

The movie was very successful, and even Ye Fang had to admit that Lan Xin did have talent as an actor. Nan Yi kept chattering in Ye Fang's ears, and occasionally discussed whether Lan Xin's martial arts moves were accurate. Naturally, Yang Mingzhen and Lan Xin saw Ye Fang during the premiere but did not come up to say hello. It was enough that they both liked each other.

After the premiere, Yang Mingzhen was going to take everyone to a celebration banquet, and the group headed straight to a luxurious nightclub.

"I didn't go to the nightclub, can you take me there?" Nan Yi was obviously not satisfied.

Ye Fang couldn't bear to dampen Nan Yi's interest, so he agreed and went straight to the nightclub where Yang Mingzhen was celebrating, but he didn't expect that this trip would cause trouble again.
