.Chapter 21.

At the end of 2016, Beijing.

When Shi Shaoqing left from Huajia Yiyuan, the car was stuck on the third ring road for a while, and it was past ten o'clock when he returned home.

The apartment he lives in now is in Chaoyang, a mid-level community with two bedrooms and one living room, but the rent is tens of thousands.

After entering the door, because I touched someone at night, my muscles and bones were sore, and my heart was also tired, so I changed my slippers and sat on the sofa.

During the year-end assessment these days, the company competed for business, and he fell short of the first place. The superior accepted him in because he was a former subordinate on Wall Street. He scolded, so he didn't idle a word, he spoke unrestrictedly, and all he said were sour sarcasm.

He knew that he was not in good condition now, he had several major accidents, and no foreign company would use him anymore, so he endured it and broke his waist for the five buckets of rice.

Because he wanted to relax, he accepted tonight's game.Unexpectedly, I didn't suppress my temper and start a fight with someone during the dinner.

After sitting on the sofa for a few minutes, Shi Shaoqing got up and went to the bathroom, splashed cold water on his face at the sink, raised his head and saw himself painted in the mirror, quite embarrassed.There was a small cut at the corner of the eyebrow because of a fist, and a small bump on the left cheek. You don't need to go to the hospital to know that it should be a soft tissue contusion.

After taking the first aid kit in the bathroom and finishing his wounds, the phone in the living room rang.

He walked over quickly, glanced at the caller ID, and pressed answer.On the other end of the phone was the voice of his mother, who asked softly, "Shaoqing, why did you come home so late? Mom has already called several times."

Shi Shaoqing remembered that his mother had called him a few times during the day. At that time, he had no time to answer because he was watching the disk, so he told the old man to contact her when he got home at night, but he did not expect to receive calls from those people in the evening. Invitation, forget about the phone call right away.

"I have a social event at night, so I just got home." Shi Shaoqing explained.

"Hey, what a hard life." The old man sighed, hesitant to speak.

"Mom, you are in a hurry to find me today, what's the matter?" Shi Shaoqing asked.

The old man was silent for a while, and said, "Your brother and your sister-in-law started a business with someone a few years ago, but now the business is not doing well. The partner ran away, and they owed money to others. There……"

Shi Shaoqing pinched the center of his brows, feeling very tired, but asked on the other end of the phone, "How much do they owe in total?"

The old man on the other end of the phone said a number in one breath, "200 million."

When Shi Shaoqing frowned, the corners of his brows that had just closed were pulled again, and the tingling sensation made him grit his teeth.

The old man didn't hear his answer, thinking that he didn't want to help the family with the burden, so he began to ramble, "Shaoqing, when will that friend surnamed Ruan pay you back? I think their company is still there, and it's doing well." , and it didn’t go bankrupt. Your father and I went to the securities company to ask people a few days ago, and they said that their company has no major problems and is operating normally. Why don’t you go to their company and ask them to pay you back!”

"Mom, this has nothing to do with their company." Shi Shaoqing pressed the wound with one hand, it was painful, and he began to grin his teeth.

"Why doesn't it matter? It's only natural to owe money and pay back money, and it's not hundreds of thousands, Shaoqing, don't you say that you lent him tens of millions? You have to come back~!"

What Shi Shaoqing lent Ruan Jinwen was [-] million!All of his net worth was used to cover part of the interest Ruan Jinwen borrowed from the usury.

When the money went out, he knew it would not come back so soon.But at that time, he was full of confidence, and he was sure that he could earn back in the shortest time.Who would have expected that the Hong Kong Stock Exchange would investigate their shorting of Yongmei.Because he opened the account, Ruan Jinwen disappeared, and he became one of the suspects deliberately shorting and disrupting the market.

Also because of this seemingly innocent crime, his investment company fired him.He was still proud at that time, and he went to other companies with the attitude of not staying here and keeping his own. Unexpectedly, he made two mistakes in judgment on transactions in succession, which caused the company to lose a lot.This makes it impossible to continue to mix in the Hong Kong market.That's why I returned to Beijing.

In Beijing, he was too low to be successful, and he had no acquaintances to recommend him, so he finally fell into a private investment company and started working as a trader.

The old man on the other end of the phone was still chattering about this matter, Shi Shaoqing's temples were throbbing, and he began to say: "Mom, is it 200 million?"

The other party answered "yes"

"Tell my brother, don't think about being a boss if you don't have a business mind, and find a job in a down-to-earth manner. I helped him advance his money this time, and he will ask for it later. There is no cent!"

The old man naturally agreed to everything when he heard that he wanted to advance the money, and said a few words about his younger son, and at the same time he did not forget to remind his elder son: "Yes, yes, you are right, mom will watch over your brother, wait After the money is paid back, Mom will tell the couple to go to work in a down-to-earth manner, and stop dreaming about the boss getting rich. But remember to get your money back, it’s a big amount.”

Shi Shaoqing complied, and thought to himself that it was a good thing that he hadn't told his family about his real worth, otherwise the family would have organized a group to go to the Ruan family to make trouble.But when it comes to Ruan Jinwen, he really doesn't know where this kid is going now, he is actually looking for him, after making countless phone calls to the Ruan family, Mrs. Ruan refused to talk to him about Jin Wen, He entrusted his connections to inquire everywhere in the Philippines and Malaysia, but he has been fruitless for more than a year.

It was as if Ruan Jinwen had suddenly disappeared from this planet, quietly, and evaporated from the world.

When sleeping at night, Shi Shaoqing had a dream, and that dream was very real.

In less than a year or two, he would dream of the same scene from time to time - on the top floor of the Bank of China Building, Ruan Jinwen stood there alone.From his point of view, in the wind and under the clouds is his rustling back, once young and frivolous, once high-spirited.

He called out to him, "Jin Wen."

When he looked back, he was still the same as when they were studying in the United States, that kind of cynical, that kind of wanton and free and easy look.

Suddenly, his face began to become heavy, and all the lively smiles froze, replaced by the loss and depression after the failure that day.Then, step by step, he slumped towards the edge of the top floor of the building and stepped out of the cordon.

Before Shi Shaoqing had time to call him, the next second, he jumped into the abyss with no end in sight...

# # #

January 2015, Hong Kong.

For two consecutive days starting from Monday, the stock of Yongmei began to move strangely in the market. No matter how many pending orders there were, someone would always take over and buy them within a few minutes.

I didn't know who the buyers were before, because I talked to Jian Bai, now I naturally know that there will be Jian Bai among those buyers.

Ruan Jinwen's face was gloomy all day long, and the areas between his brows that were originally stretched were almost carved with Sichuan characters. His originally sunny and handsome face became haggard because of the sleepless nights these days.

The market only opened in the afternoon, and Yongmei changed another big order. The trader rushed over and asked him if he wanted to continue shorting, showed him the current trend, and suggested that he exit.He held his breath and didn't make a sound. Seeing his appearance, the trader shrugged his shoulders and left. When he left, he yelled at the accountant, "I've prepared enough ammunition. I'm not sure how many I will sweep this afternoon."

After a while, a few calls came in, all from companies that had linked up with the short-selling companies before, and most of them were asking him if he was withdrawing to save the results.

It was only after two o'clock in the afternoon. Maybe several companies made a new decision. They decided to imitate Soros's common practice in Asian countries in the currency market and lower the price of Hong Kong dollars in order to let the Hang Seng Index fall. Empty report.

However, for this operation, Ruan Jinwen needs more funds. Once the funds cannot keep up during the operation, the original results will be swallowed up by the market automatically. It is very intense and cruel.

He made several phone calls back to Nguyen, asking the board for financial support.Ruan's board of directors was united unprecedentedly this time, and a group of people were on the sidelines, telling him that this matter was to be implemented by himself, and that the board of directors had never been held before, so it was not established.There were also some directors who probably heard the news, and congratulated him with weird looks on his profit. He was in a hurry and hung up the phone without cursing.

The way to ask Ruan for money was cut off, so I asked several domestic banks with many cooperations, but after a round of phone calls, the other party either said that it was too late or rejected him because of foreign exchange control.

Shi Shaoqing knew that he needed money, and suggested that he directly ask the bank in Hong Kong to borrow money. As long as the procedures are complete, the efficiency and amount of money will not disappoint.

This was originally the most common and easiest way to go, but I don’t know if it’s time to memorize it. This time, after several banks asked, it seemed like a good deal. When they heard that it was from the Ruan family in Beijing, they all flatly rejected them. loan application.

Until the settlement was completed in the afternoon, Ruan Jinwen's spare funds had not yet been settled.

At this time, Yongmei, who happened to be a coincidence, released the company's news to the outside world, which can be regarded as a real response to their second wave of short-selling reports. Yongmei said: The previous agreement with the 20.00 stores in Zhengyang changed hands. Finally, the cooperation was completed with a [-]% share exchange of Zhengyang.

In less than 5 minutes after the news was released, Zhengyang issued a public relations draft at the same time, acknowledging the cooperation plan between the two companies and Yongmei's previous announcement.

This fucking is simply the sharpest knife slashing straight at Ruan Jinwen and other people who are shorting Yongmei.Because the market was already closed, once this good news came out, they were unprepared to fight back. They grabbed their throats quickly, ruthlessly, and precisely, so that they didn't have any chance to breathe.

In this way, without the support of funds, Yongmei will be able to rebound as soon as the stock market opens the next day.

In the evening, several linked companies all got together for a meeting. After two hours, a group of people had been beaten and dispersed. Some resolutely withdrew, some turned their guns around, and some continued to hold a wait-and-see attitude.

When Shi Shaoqing arrived, Ruan Jinwen had already smoked two packs of cigarettes. He asked him if he had solved the money problem, but he just kept shaking his head.When Shaoqing was still helping him to find a solution, Ruan Jinwen said helplessly, "Don't think too much, Shaoqing. I asked all over the place, and someone should have listed our Ruan family on the list of not borrowing money, otherwise all the debts would be lost. The wording from the banks is all the same."

Shi Shaoqing didn't expect the situation to change so much. Probably before the weekend, according to his calculations for Ruan Jinwen, he had earned about 100 billion Hong Kong dollars in this financial wrestling. Now the wind and snow suddenly changed, and the momentum turned completely. direction.

Ruan Jinwen said again, "Can you do me another favor?"

Shi Shaoqing asked him to speak directly.

Ruan Jinwen said, "Ask a private lending company or an underground bank for me, it doesn't matter."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Shaoqing yelled, "Are you crazy? That's usury. Those who do this in Hong Kong have black backgrounds!"

Ruan Jinwen clasped his arms with both hands, fixed his eyes firmly on his eyes, and said with a serious and persistent face that had never been seen before, "I'm probably crazy! But, Shaoqing, you also think I won't win." ?"

"It's not a question of whether to win or not, Jin Wen! You understand this better than me, please be a little more rational!" Shi Shaoqing was a little unbelievable. In fact, Ruan Jinwen's books are still profitable at this time, not at all. deficit.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Jinwen replied, "I know! It's a bet right now, and finance is a bit of a gamble, and who can be [-]% sure of the result. You just need to continue to support me. I want your applause, not scolding! Shaoqing, I only have your support now—"

"I just want to win Yu Guang, just once!"

Shi Shaoqing, "...".

After being silent for about a minute, he said again, "Okay, I'll help you, let's try and make a bet."
