Rebirth 2006, creating a super consortium

"Dong dong dong..."

"Please come in!"

Lu Xi, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, opened the door and walked in, and asked softly, "Boss, what can I do for you?"

"Sit down and talk!"

When An Xin saw that Lu Xi in front of him still had a new look, he was happy and teased with a smile: "No, are you really going to change your appearance?"

Lu Xi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Boss, what do you think you are saying?"

"To be honest, if I were as handsome as you, I wouldn't care about my personal image at all!"

"But don't I look average?"

"Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse, so I can only take the stupid way to clean myself up!"

An Xin shrugged slightly cockily: "Do you understand the value of being naturally handsome?"

"Okay, let's get down to business!"

"Have you and Liang Fan arranged all the funds?"

Lu Xi immediately restrained his expression, sorted out his thoughts, and replied fluently: "Boss, all the funds from Yuanfang Private Equity and Star Capital have entered the market!"

"There is a total of $90 billion in funds from Yuanfang Private Equity, of which $20 billion has been entrusted to John Paulson through offshore companies. He has set up a new fund specifically to operate this fund."

"$15 billion was spent on CDs issued by HSBC Household International."

"$5 million to purchase CDs issued by AIG (American International Group)."

“剩下50亿美元里，我们保留了10亿美元作为灵活保证金，其他40亿美元已经通过期权和期货渠道入场沽空了标普500、道琼斯工业指数、纳斯达克100指数等美股指数市场。”

"Star Capital has a total of 50 billion US dollars. The original plan was to use it all to go long on gold, but didn't you have a new plan more than a month ago?"

"According to your new plan, Star Capital's funds for long gold have been reduced to 30 billion US dollars!"

"The $20 billion that was freed up has already been used to short sell U.S. stock indexes using 10x leverage!"

"Boss, don't worry. Liang Fan and I have already completed the relevant fund layout. Now we are just waiting for the crisis to break out!"

"very good!"

Anxin is very satisfied with Luxi and their execution capabilities!

This means that all of your funds are already accumulated and ready to go, waiting to reap huge profits once the crisis breaks out!

After thinking for a moment, An Xin asked again: "We have entrusted a huge amount of funds of 20 billion US dollars to an offshore company. Isn't John Paulson curious about who we are?"

Lu Xi smiled and replied, "Of course I'm curious!"

"But John Paulson is a Wall Street veteran. After asking us twice and not getting an accurate answer, he immediately shut up!"

"Smart guy!" An Xin praised with a smile, and then suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and immediately asked: "By the way, what is John Paulson's fee standard?"

After hearing An Xin's question, Lu Xi suddenly showed an inexplicable smile on his face: "Boss, the rate he gives to others is 2+30, and the rate he gives to us is 1+10!"

"Oh?" An Xin was a little curious: "Why?"

"He seemed to have guessed that we were just using him as insurance, so when it came to the fee schedule, he didn't insist on the original rate, but happily gave us an ultra-low rate!"

"And we can ensure that our subsequent profits will be in place, and there will definitely be no problems!"

"What a smart man!" An Xin shook her head and sighed again.

"Not only is he a smart man, he also has plenty of investment confidence!"

Lu Xi agreed with this very much: "Yes, according to the response of colleagues who went to the interview, John Paulson is indeed very confident about this CDS investment!"

"And John Paulson also said during the talks that if nothing unexpected happens, a new round of financial crisis will definitely break out within a year!"

An Xin raised the corner of her mouth but said nothing.

Even someone as powerful as John Paulson only dares to give a conservative range value for one year!

And An Xin knows all the causes and consequences of the subprime mortgage crisis!

It seems that genius is not as good as the stupid one!

But as soon as An Xin thought that the financial crisis might have been deliberately created by American financial groups, the little bit of pride in his heart instantly disappeared.

The strength is still not strong enough!

It’s still a long way from the top poker table!

But An Xin was not discouraged. After all, the foundation was solid and all she had to do next was to follow the steps.

After adjusting his mentality, An Xin asked, "What about the acquisition of FMG? Have you negotiated with Andrew Forrest?"

Lu Xi smiled: “Boss, let me tell you, this Andrew is really not an honest man!”

An Xin frowned: "Are there any twists and turns?"

"No, no, no!" Lu Xi shook his head and immediately added: "Boss, didn't you set a purchase premium of no more than 10%?"

"This Andrew is quite funny. He directly offered us an 8% premium plan!"

"He said that as long as we agree to pay this premium, he will be responsible for completing all the privatization and delisting procedures of FMG within a month!"

An Xin vaguely guessed what Andrew Forrest was going to do, and asked hesitantly, "He wants to take advantage of the premium difference?"

"Yes!" Lu Xi nodded with a smile: "Based on a rough estimate, I think he might be able to get a 5% premium!"

An Xin shook her head speechlessly: "It's just a 5% premium difference, is it necessary?"

Lu Xi disagreed with this statement and said with a wry smile: "Boss, a 5% premium difference is also or million US dollars, which is really a lot!"

"Besides, I also want to make this kind of money with little risk!"

"No risk?" An Xin shook her head and retorted: "Lu Xi, you think too simply!"

"I guess you only paid attention to the 15% to 20% of circulating shares in the secondary market!"

"Have you ever thought about who the remaining 15% of FMG shares belong to?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this part of FMG's shares is definitely held by those old political and business families in Australia through offshore trust funds!"

"And Andrew Forrest wants to eat the difference?"

"Haha, I just hope he doesn't do anything weird during the process. Otherwise, those Australian political and business families will never let him go!"

Lu Xi was startled, and immediately suggested: “Boss, let’s not let Andrew do this, right?”

"No!" An Xin waved her hand and said with a smile: "Let Andrew follow his own plan!"

"If he can really complete the FMG privatization and delisting process within the stipulated time and also make a profit from the price difference without any risk, then that is his ability and I have nothing to say!"

"If he can't handle those powerful Australian families and cause a big mess, that would be even better!"

"Not only can we use this opportunity to save his life and make him work for us wholeheartedly, but we can also show our strength to those powerful families in Australia so that they won't have any tricks on us in the future!"

Lu Xi hesitated a little: "Boss, but we don't have much power in Australia!"

An Xin laughed loudly and said, "We really don't have much power in Australia, but it doesn't matter, we can use the power of others to our advantage!"

"Ah?" Lu Xi said a little confusedly: "Boss, I don't quite understand what you mean!"

An Xin shook her head slightly, not intending to explain further: "Lu Xi, I know about this matter, you just need to keep an eye on Andrew, if there is any unexpected situation on his side, you must notify me as soon as possible!"

"No problem!" Lu Xi immediately agreed and promised: "I will keep a close eye on Andrew's situation. If anything unexpected happens, I will notify you in time..."

"Jingle Bell…"

The sudden ringing of the office phone interrupted Luxi's expression of loyalty!

An Xin gestured to Lu Xi and then answered the call directly.

"Hey?"

"Director An, I'm Cai Ning. There's a man over here who claims to be from Zhaode, the capital, who wants to see you. What do you think we should do?"
