Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 1005 begins...

The New York Dow Jones Industrial Average is one of the most symbolic indices. If the index rises or falls sharply, it means something has happened. However, since the beginning of this year, the index has been in a stable state until June, when it showed some fluctuations.

But it was just a slight fluctuation, within the normal range. However, when the tenth largest mortgage lender in the United States, American Home Mortgage Investment Corporation, filed for bankruptcy protection, the index began to fluctuate, and the fluctuation was a bit large. However, no one expected that the index would suddenly plummet.

Lu Shaohua was different. He was a reborn person and knew things that others could not know. Therefore, he had set up the plan early. On August 8th, US time, which was the early morning of Hong Kong time, Lu Shaohua personally came to the headquarters to take a look at the falling scene.

The stock market opened in the morning of US time, but the Dow Jones Industrial Average in New York did not move much. It was very quiet, just like usual, without any sign of a decline. This sign even made Liu Mingzhang and others doubt whether the data provided by Lu Shaohua was accurate.

Liu Mingzhang even moved his lips several times, wanting to ask Lu Shaohua if he had made a mistake, but seeing Lu Shaohua's calm and composed look, Liu Mingzhang could only swallow his words back and stared at the big screen anxiously.

Who is Lu Shaohua? He is a reborn person. Of course he knows that the Dow Jones Index in New York will fall today, and the decline will be large, a drop of 1300 points. However, this plunge did not occur in the morning, but in the afternoon.

It is morning in the United States now. The Dow Jones Industrial Average in New York will certainly not fall. How could Lu Shaohua, who knows the situation, be anxious? Perhaps in the afternoon, if the Dow Jones Industrial Average still does not fall, Lu Shaohua might become anxious.

However, now? Lu Shaohua had already prepared himself mentally, so he was not in a hurry at all.

Time passed quickly, and an hour passed quietly. At this time, Liu Mingzhang finally couldn't help it. He bravely lowered his tone as much as possible and asked Lu Shaohua in a very calm tone. "Is there something wrong?"

In this situation, Liu Mingzhang was also very nervous. What if the stock price didn't fall? Would that mean that there was something wrong with the data provided by Lu Shaohua? If there was something wrong with the data, what would be the result?

As you can imagine, things went haywire next. After all, Liu Mingzhang and his team made their plans based on the data provided by Lu Shaohua. If the data was wrong, all their plans would be ruined and they would lose all their money.

As the person who provided the data, it is conceivable what Lu Shaohua would feel. No matter how calm Lu Shaohua is or how good his personality is, he would not be able to help but lose his temper. What's more, Lu Shaohua's personality is not very good. Once he gets ruthless, the scene will be very, very hot.

Liu Mingzhang raised questions at this time, obviously doubting whether the data was wrong. However, Liu Mingzhang still controlled his tone very well and did not directly ask whether there was a problem with the data. Instead, he used the stock market situation as a shield, using the questioning of the stock market situation as a cover to indirectly question whether the data was wrong.

Who is Lu Shaohua? How could he not understand Liu Mingzhang's little tricks? Even though Liu Mingzhang said it very obscurely, Lu Shaohua still heard it. He shook his head lightly and said, "The market will not fall in the morning. The real show will start in the afternoon."

Lu Shaohua gave the answer directly, and then, without paying attention to the stunned Liu Mingzhang, he shouted to Li Shangkui who was sitting not far from him. "Brother Li, arrange for a few people to get some midnight snacks. Everyone is hungry."

Li Shangkui didn't say anything, but he nodded to Lu Shaohua and walked out of the villa, probably to arrange for someone to buy supper.

However, Lu Shaohua's action seemed insignificant on the surface, but it had a different meaning. In the eyes of Liu Mingzhang and others, Lu Shaohua was in a completely relaxed state of mind! Perhaps, Lu Shaohua might have been pretending to be calm just now, and was secretly anxious in his heart, but now it seemed that Lu Shaohua was really relaxed. After all, if a person pretends to be calm, he will not be in the mood to eat supper.

The boss has calmed down, so what else can they say?

Liu Mingzhang also calmed down at this time. Of course, it was not entirely because Lu Shaohua was calm that made him feel at ease, but because of his long-term trust in Lu Shaohua that made him calm down.

Liu Mingzhang has been with Lu Shaohua for more than twenty years. He is already over forty years old and is at the end of middle age, and is about to enter old age.

More than 20 years ago, Liu Mingzhang was just a college graduate who was still looking for clients in the securities firm, hoping that one day he would find a big client who would let him invest on his behalf and he would earn commissions to support himself.

But at that time, Lu Shaohua appeared and became his first client. Needless to say, Lu Shaohua made his first pot of gold, and Liu Mingzhang also made his first pot of gold. Later, he joined Phoenix Group and became the first employee of Phoenix Group.

In the following years, Liu Mingzhang witnessed the growth of Phoenix Group and also witnessed Lu Shaohua creating the legendary miracle. Until today, subconsciously, Liu Mingzhang has regarded Lu Shaohua as a god-like existence, as if Lu Shaohua is an omnipotent person.

This subconscious belief is conviction. Liu Mingzhang has completely believed in Lu Shaohua. If Lu Shaohua said that tomorrow would be the end of the world, Liu Mingzhang would believe it without hesitation.

It is the same now. Although he has a thought in his mind that doubts the data provided by Lu Shaohua, deep down in his heart, subconsciously, Liu Mingzhang still believes in Lu Shaohua.

Not only Li Yunqing, but also Li Zongen was the same. They had witnessed many miracles created by Lu Shaohua, and they could not help but be convinced. As for Huo Xiaoyue, needless to say, Lu Shaohua was her man, and she chose to be completely convinced.

……

Time passed quickly, and the stock market closed quickly in the morning. At the closing, the stock market still did not fall, but fluctuated. However, Lu Shaohua remained calm, as if this situation in the stock market was normal.

At this time, the people sent by Li Shangkui had already bought the midnight snacks. It really took some time to prepare dozens of midnight snacks. It took a full hour and a half for the people sent by Li Shangkui to buy them all.

Things became much simpler after that. I would have a midnight snack, smoke a cigarette, and then make a cup of tea or coffee. Life was like that of a god and it was very enjoyable.

As everyone enjoys themselves, gossip is inevitable. Things happen in Hong Kong every day, and they are all very strange. For example, today a certain star appears in public with the son of a certain rich man. Tomorrow, the nude photos of a certain star are exposed. In short, there are all kinds of things.

As men, even older men, like to talk about these topics, treating them as jokes and entertainment!

Especially Liu Mingzhang, he is one of the people who likes to talk about these topics the most, but today is a little different, the reason is that Liu Mingzhang's wife is also present, Liu Mingzhang dare not be so excessive, there is no way, he is a henpecked husband.

……

Time always passes by unknowingly. Soon, it was morning in Hong Kong time and afternoon in the United States. The stock market opened in the afternoon. Everyone was in high spirits. No matter how tired they were, they all held their heads high, concentrated their attention, and stared at the big screen without blinking.

No decline...

This was the situation after the market opened, which made everyone a little anxious, including Lu Shaohua. Even if Lu Shaohua hid it well, his natural reaction of frowning showed that he was actually a little anxious.

But soon, this anxious feeling disappeared, because a big minus sign appeared, and the exponential diagram went straight down, just like a heavy object falling from a tall building, at an incredible speed.

It has to be said that this change was so fast that no one could react. Lu Shaohua was better off as he was mentally prepared, but Liu Mingzhang and the others were not too prepared either.

When they saw the index chart going straight down to the bottom, Liu Mingzhang and the others' hearts skipped a beat and they almost couldn't breathe.

If a person with a low ability to accept things sees this scene, this change, he might suddenly have a heart attack. If a person is suffering from heart disease, he might just suffer an attack right after seeing this scene.

"It fell..." Liu Mingzhang shouted.

Yes, it has fallen, and it fell very quickly!

Lu Shaohua's data was finally confirmed. What does this mean? It means that the plan formulated by Liu Mingzhang and others does not need to be changed, and the strategy does not need to be adjusted. It can just remain unchanged.

This made Liu Mingzhang feel relieved. Suddenly, cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and his body leaned on the sofa, limp, like a deflated ball.

However, Lu Shaohua did not care whether the Dow Jones Industrial Average in New York fell. What he was concerned about now was that the signs of a financial crisis had already begun.

"It's started..." Lu Shaohua muttered to himself.

Yes, it has started. It’s not the decline that has started, but a deeper meaning: the financial crisis has begun.

Lu Shaohua had been waiting for this moment. When this moment really appeared before him, Lu Shaohua was very excited. As for why he was so excited, I believe it goes without saying that the plan that Lu Shaohua had thought of more than 20 years ago could finally be implemented.

Of course, the financial crisis has just begun now. Lu Shaohua cannot be in a hurry, and he cannot be in a hurry. He has to wait until the financial crisis begins to sweep the world before his plan can be truly implemented.

However, it is still necessary to plan ahead.

Isn't Lu Shaohua doing this all the time? Plan before you act!
