Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 692: Epilogue (Part 2)

Toss? Or not toss?

The two choices were just a matter of Li Yunqing's thoughts. Liu Mingzhang and Li Zongen no longer had any opinions. Everything depended on Li Yunqing. Whether to wait and see or to order a sell-off was all up to Li Yunqing alone.

The stock market situation in the United States and the United Kingdom is not optimistic. It was still falling the day before yesterday, but today it suddenly fell only slightly, and there is a faint trend of rising again. This makes Li Yunqing very embarrassed.

However, Li Yunqing is Li Yunqing after all. There is nothing wrong with being calm and steady, but his conservative character is also reflected at this moment. After struggling, Li Yunqing finally decided to play it safe.

“Start selling…”

Li Yunqing decisively gave the order. At the end, after a long pause, Li Yunqing added, "Tell the people below to throw slowly, not too fast."

Originally, when faced with this situation, Li Yunqing had already ordered a full sell-off at all costs. However, Li Yunqing's subsequent words changed the nature of the situation, asking the traders below to sell slowly, which was another risky move.

Li Yunqing was betting that the two developed countries, the United States and the United Kingdom, would not recover so quickly, and would not rebound so quickly, so Li Yunqing decided to wait and see during the sell-off.

That's right, just wait and see while selling. If the situation gets worse, Li Yunqing can order a quick sell-off. In this way, even if the situation changes, there will only be a small loss. But if it continues to fall, the result will be different, and you will make a lot more money in the end.

This is a method, and also a relatively clever strategy. If it were the previous Li Yunqing, he would never do this, but at this time, he hesitated. Perhaps there was some selfish motive at work.

It must be said that Li Yunqing, as the commander-in-chief of this operation, felt a lot of pressure, but at the same time, he also felt proud and cherished it, after all, this was an opportunity that he had finally gotten. It was for this reason that Li Yunqing went against his usual character and took a gamble, not for anything else, just to delay time.

Li Yunqing knew very well that once the operations of the United States and Britain were over, everything would be over, and his title as the commander-in-chief would soon end. This was Li Yunqing's selfish desire. He had finally gotten this opportunity, and Li Yunqing really wanted the operation to not end so quickly.

Now it is almost over, and it will end sooner or later. Li Yunqing certainly wants to delay it a little longer. Since it is only half a day or a whole day, he will try to enjoy the power brought by the commander-in-chief in this last period of time.

Of course, Li Yunqing is not the kind of person who would deliberately delay for selfish reasons. He has many considerations. In Li Yunqing's view, it may take some time for the stock markets of the United States and the United Kingdom to rebound.

Combining the scattered information revealed in Lu Shaohua's words, Li Yunqing believed that it was impossible for the stock markets of the United States and the United Kingdom to rebound in September, so Li Yunqing decided to take a gamble.

Make more money.

This was Li Yunqing's original intention, and it was also to put a perfect end to his tenure as commander-in-chief.

Li Zongen and Liu Mingzhang had no objections. They just nodded slightly and remained silent, allowing Li Yunqing to decide.

It was not that Li Zongen and Liu Mingzhang disagreed with Li Yunqing's decision, but that Liu Mingzhang and the other two also agreed with this approach, because they both believed that the stock markets in the United States and Britain still had room to fall.

The three giants had reached a consensus. What else was there to say? Of course, they did as Li Yunqing said. Liu Mingzhang's wife quickly gave orders to the traders below, and then they really waited and watched while selling.

For two consecutive days, the stock market situation in the United States and the United Kingdom was very unclear. It was up and down, with occasional upward momentum, but the upward trend was not maintained. With the selling of Li Yunqing and others, the stock market became turbulent again and fell slowly all the way.

On the afternoon of September 30, half an hour before closing, there was movement from Li Yunqing's side again. However, Li Yunqing did not issue any orders to sell. Instead, he asked Liu Mingzhang's wife to send a message to the people below to ask how many orders they had on hand.

As soon as the message was sent out, a reply was received quickly. Liu Mingzhang's wife integrated the data and quickly came up with accurate data. She said, "The remaining shares of the two countries are 18.9% and 13.0% respectively."

"Good." Li Yunqing said calmly. No one knew what he meant by "good", whether it was the remaining shares or the stock market. But soon, everyone got the answer they wanted, because Li Yunqing spoke again after a long pause. "Give the order to sell all stocks, and make sure to clear the positions before the afternoon close."

The big action has finally come. This is the clarion call for the end of the entire Asian financial crisis.

Liu Mingzhang's wife did not hesitate and gave the order quickly. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and stared at the big screen.

Don't forget that Liu Mingzhang's wife is also a person in the financial field. Although she is not as good as Liu Mingzhang and Li Yunqing, she is Liu Mingzhang's wife after all. Over time, under the influence of Liu Mingzhang, she has made a qualitative improvement in all aspects. She can also see some situations from the trends shown on the big screen.

Time passed bit by bit, and half a year passed in the blink of an eye. At the closing moment of the afternoon, news came from all sides again, all of which were information that the mission was completed, announcing that the operation was finally over.

Bear the humiliation...

These were the words that automatically flashed in Li Yunqing's mind at the moment of closing.

Yes, it is finally over. Li Yunqing completed the task assigned to him by Lu Shaohua very well. During his tenure as commander-in-chief, he stuck to his post and did what he should do. He can give Lu Shaohua a satisfactory answer and also comfort himself.

It's over, it's over, it's all over, the operation is finally over.

But in fact, is it really over? Isn't the end to welcome a new beginning? So, Li Yunqing and his team are far from over. At least, following Lu Shaohua's footsteps, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. It's still a long way to go to talk about the end. At the very least, there will be another super-large global financial crisis. How can Li Yunqing and his team end?

2008 will be a new expectation and a new beginning.

Of course, Li Yunqing and the others didn't know all this. The only one who knew was Lu Shaohua. When the Asian financial crisis was coming to an end, Lu Shaohua had already been secretly planning to fight another beautiful battle.

But no matter what, the Asian financial crisis has finally come to an end. What Li Yunqing and his team need to do next is to make a data summary of this stage, hand it to Lu Shaohua, and then calculate the commissions, get their deserved share, and let life return to its original track.

At the moment of the end, Li Yunqing was also discouraged and sighed, but these emotions were hidden in his heart and he did not show them. The only expression on his face was the excitement after the excitement.

How could Li Yunqing not be excited when he thought about getting his commission after summarizing the data? According to the estimates of this action, Lu Shaohua would earn several hundred billion dollars in the two stages combined, and Li Yunqing and others would be able to get tens of billions of dollars.

No one is perfect. A gentleman loves money but he gets it in a proper way. Li Yunqing and his friends make their money in a legitimate way, and when it comes time to get the money, they are never soft-hearted. On the contrary, they feel very relieved to receive it because it is what they deserve.

Faced with revenues of over 10 billion US dollars, how could Li Yunqing and his team not be excited and thrilled?

Therefore, almost as soon as the people below sent the data back, Li Yunqing, Liu Mingzhang and Li Zongen started working in tacit understanding, summarizing the data, integrating all the transaction data, and forming a file to hand over to Lu Shaohua.

During this period, Li Yunqing did not forget to call Lu Shaohua and tell him the news of the end of the operation. This was something Li Yunqing had to do.

Lu Shaohua didn't say much, he just asked Li Yunqing to summarize the data, and then asked the three of them to take out some money and hold a celebration banquet for everyone.

It was a celebratory banquet, indeed. According to convention, after each operation, Lu Shaohua would always set up a few tables for a celebratory banquet.

But this time things were a little different. There were too many teams involved, with more than one hundred and twenty traders. It was not easy to hold a celebration party for so many people, which gave Li Yunqing and his team a headache.

If for no other reason, the traders below were in groups of four to six. Although they knew of each other's existence, they had no idea who the other party was or what their identities were. Lu Shaohua would not allow them to meet, so they had to separate during the celebration banquet.

In terms of time, the banquet must be held on the evening of the end of the operation, otherwise it will not be a celebration banquet, but an ordinary banquet, and will lose its original meaning.

In one night, the three giants had to deal with nearly thirty tables of banquets. On average, each person had to deal with ten tables of banquets. How could Li Yunqing and his team not have a headache? However, Lu Shaohua's order had already been issued, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and do it.

So, of course, a dramatic scene occurred in the evening. After Li Yunqing and his team summarized the data, they began to call various hotels in Kowloon to book private rooms. Some hotels even booked two or three rooms at a time.

It is normal to book two or three private rooms in the same hotel, but the strange thing is that when Li Yunqing and his team booked the private rooms, they were very individual. They wanted them to be separated and the distance between them was very far, at least one floor apart.

Weird, very weird...

However, money talks. Even if it was strange, upon learning that the box was booked by the three giants of Phoenix Group, the hotel did not dare to neglect it and made arrangements according to the instructions of Li Yunqing and others.
