The husband of a financial tycoon

There was a wild cat meowing in the yard. A yellow civet cat was lying on the courtyard wall. The cat's hair was messy and messy. It should be a wild cat, but the cat's size was normal. It exchanged with the old man lying on the rattan chair in the yard, probably wanting to test it out. Seeing that there was no response, it boldly jumped down.

Zhou Xuejun is reading a book on a recliner. The title of the book is "Stocks, Knocking on China's Door". This should be the most popular book in the country in the early 90s. market situation.The book analyzes the situation of 1989 companies in Shenzhen that issued shares and were listed and traded, namely Shenzhen Development Bank, Vanke, Anda and Jintian.

Combined with newspapers, this book shows the upsurge of stock trading in the whole country very intuitively. Workers even started not to go to work. Koreans and Japanese also came to Shenzhen to support the joint-stock system pilot, which led to the situation that some government agencies and enterprises in Shenzhen forced employees to use stocks to offset wages.

Of course, Zhou Xuejun doesn’t care about these things. What he cares about is that Shenzhen Development Development Co., Ltd., which has been issued for less than a year, is the stock worth 5000 yuan that Zhuang Xing helped him buy. The price has soared dozens of times. Now 1 yuan!And those workers who are forced to use their wages to offset their stocks have already become ten thousand yuan households. This year, the average salary of workers is 88 yuan a month. The 170 yuan of stocks is now exchanged for 170 yuan, which is equivalent to earning 10200 years of wages in one month. .

This astonishing huge profit has made it hard to find a ticket in the stock market. Now that the price of Shenzhen Development Bank has risen to sky-high prices, there are still people asking for a higher price. How scary is it?In order to prevent people from all over the country from 'waiting for currency', the government has introduced measures: the range of price rises and falls is reduced to 5%, and those who sell stocks need to pay a stamp duty of 6% of the market value of the stock!

In the evening, Shen Xiuzhu went to make a phone call with his grandfather. The phone booth was some distance away from their home. Even the wealthy Grandpa Zhuang’s house hadn’t popularized the installation of landlines yet. People have a headache, so there is a public phone.

In the early 90s, IC card telephone booths had been installed on a large scale across the country. Several people lined up at the public telephone booths next to the street lights. Shen Xiuzhu obediently stood at the end of the line and listened to the complaints of the people in front.

"How long is this person going to talk?"

"I don't know, I have been here for 20 minutes, and he was playing before I came..."

Shen Xiuzhu looked curiously at the sweet smiling woman holding the phone, but what he was thinking about was the dispute that had happened with his own eyes before. Someone chatted in a public phone booth for more than an hour, but someone went up and pressed it. The phone call, so the two sides first started a quarrel and shoved, before they directly started fighting.

This is also very common. Some people really need to communicate in an urgent matter, but the phone booths are public. Shen Xiuzhu only thought that he should not call for more than 10 minutes in the future. Then he thought, who else can he call him? As for the phone, my brother is far away abroad. It has been almost a year, and he can't even send a letter, let alone make a phone call.

Finally it was the turn of Shen Xiuzhu and the others. Zhou Xuejun checked the time, and before it was time for the BP pager, he discussed with the people behind him to call first, "Comrade, how long have you been calling? I will let you call soon. "

"Okay, I'll report a letter to my family in a few minutes." It's definitely a pleasure to call first, and no one wants to stand outside the phone booth and listen to other people's heart-to-heart exchanges inside.

When the time was up, Zhou Xuejun inserted an IC card worth 30 yuan and started talking on the phone. Shen Xiuzhu watched his grandfather and looked at the phone booth. The silver landline was in the booth, and the microphone was lacquered black. He remembered his favorite comic book, He carefully looked at it and prepared to go home and draw it.

Zhou Xuejun called Zhang Jian, his former student, with the purpose of selling the shares of Shenzhen Development Development in his hand. The two discussed it on the phone. They said that they had come to Zhou Xuejun's house for two days and hung up the phone. Zhou Xuejun and his grandson went home together. go back.

Shen Xiuzhu was a little annoyed, his brother hadn't come back yet, and his grandfather was going to sell the stock that his brother bought. He simply thought that his brother knew better, and it would be better for him to direct the sale, so he asked knowingly: "Grandpa , do you want to sell the stock?"

Zhou Xuejun: "Yes, it has to be sold, and I will take it when I see it."

Zhou Xuejun saw his little grandson's worries, and he taught him carefully, "Little bamboo, the word "preparation for a rainy day" refers to repairing the doors and windows of the house before it rains. And when it is good, it is closed, just like we sell now. It is already profitable, maybe wait a year or two to sell, it is also profitable, but there is also a possibility of loss, since it is only about earning more and earning less, then we are selling now without losing money, can you understand what grandpa means? ?”

Adults are very good at talking, just like they never buy food that they don't like, and if children don't like it, then they will say that they are not picky eaters, because adults are never picky eaters.Now that Grandpa has already made plans, Shen Xiuzhu will stop talking about it. The 13-year-old illiterate has learned two words, to plan ahead and to let it go.

In September 1991, Zhou Xuejun entrusted his student Zhang Jian to sell his stock for 9 yuan.In just ten months, with 11 yuan a share of Shenzhen Development, he spent 27 yuan in exchange for more than 5000 yuan. Zhou Xuejun couldn't help but sigh, the world has really changed, and the mainstream of money making money is the mainstream of making money.

Shen Xiuzhu learns about stocks through newspapers and radio stations every day. He knows that his family has made so much money, but he has no special concept of wealth. After all, he has never been short of money since he was a child. It doesn't matter.

All his energy is now on junior high school. He will take the exam in June next year. If he meets the score line, the county junior high school will admit him. Who told him that he has not received an orthodox elementary school education.

Therefore, in Zhuang Xing's first year abroad, Shen Xiuzhu quickly acquired knowledge, and the Entrusted Education Office condensed six years of primary school knowledge into one year, and Shen Xiuzhu came from the Great Zhou Dynasty thousands of years ago, so he studied even harder.The school office does not have winter and summer vacations, and the winter and summer vacations are the time when they have the most students. Shen Xiuzhu didn't make any friends, because he needs to change shifts soon, so he doesn't have much time to get along with his classmates.

In addition to studying every day, he understands the stock market. He knows that Shenzhen has newly listed its fifth share "Shen Bao'an" in June. The issue price is 6 yuan per share, and the momentum is very good.He knows that people across the country are not going to work and speculate in stocks every day. The government has issued new regulations: only depositors with 3 yuan can enter the stock market!This allowed some workers to return to their jobs and work hard to start saving money and investing in stocks.Every day, Shen Xiuzhu thought about telling his brother Zhuang Xing what he knew about the stock market, so he got a brand new notepad. At first, he recorded what he wanted to say, and gradually it became his daily mood and thoughts.

…………

In the third month after arriving in the United States, Zhuang Xing's study abroad career became completely stable and boring. He was alone in a foreign country, and this kind of study abroad was lonely.The Princeton University he studied in is located in New Jersey, the fourth smallest state in the United States. There is no hustle and bustle of Zhuangzhou Island, and no relatives to greet each other. On weekends, he just goes out alone and takes a small bamboo on Zhuangzhou Island. That excitement is the complete opposite.

Even though Zhuang Xing is mature and has a good appearance, there are always Chinese or Americans who take the initiative to make friends with, but Zhuang Xing still cannot relax and talk to them.Many people who can come to study abroad in this era are work-study students. They are busy with classes and part-time jobs after class. The foreign students who are not rich or expensive are eager to play all over the United States and live up to their youth.

At this time, Zhuang Xing began to linger in the library. The protection and support of intellectual property rights in foreign countries made books very expensive because there were no pirated copies.Here he came into contact with the personal history of investment tycoon Buffett. He was full of curiosity about this rich man who was rejected by Harvard University. He first studied Buffett, and then derived research on Buffett's investment and research on Buffett's stocks.

Warren Buffett is an American and the most legendary investor in the world. He has a very personal way of stock trading: when everyone is afraid of the stock market plummeting, he starts to buy a lot.

This also gave him a new understanding and insight into stock trading. At this time, news came from the country: □□ After the southern stock market tour on May 1992, 5, the stock soared 21% in just 3 days. It is known as the day when the Chinese stock market was truly born.

Zhuang Xing immediately sent a telegram to his family asking his father to sell the stocks. This is what he learned during his study in the United States. First, try to avoid risks and keep the principal; second, try to avoid risks and keep the principal; Three, keep in mind the first and second rules.

In August, Zhuang Xing read the telegram his father replied, and the 8 yuan shares were sold out, and he deposited 20000 yuan in the name of Zhuang Xing. This news made Zhuang Xing more determined to learn to invest.

In November of the same year, Zhuang Xing entered an investment firm in Jersey City as an intern. Although he was only an operator answering the phone, with his learning ability, he still gained a lot of social knowledge that he could not get in touch with on campus.

Zhuang Xing hurried out of the castle-like campus, passed the concrete path in the green grass, and met an international student of the same nationality. Lin Xiuzhu was wearing a turtleneck sweater and a brown plaid coat. Jing Lu and others, at this time she greeted the people who were waiting: "Senior Brother Zhuang, here it is."

Coincidentally, Lin Xiuzhu and Shen Xiuzhu have the same pinyin, but the tone is different, and the owners of these two names with the same pinyin have a special relationship with Zhuang Xing. Zhuang Xing walked towards her, "What a coincidence?"

Lin Xiuzhu was a class behind him, and at this time she was still accepting the arrangement of the school to live in a host family with local residents in New Jersey. Choosing a host family is conducive to the improvement of English proficiency and faster integration into local life.Zhuang Xing also lived there for a year, and he moved out by himself in his sophomore year. He rented a house with the lowest expenses. He didn't want to save money, but just wanted to improve his ability to live independently and be more free.

Lin Xiuzhu happened to apply for his previous host family. They had a common circle of international students, so they knew each other. Because of the host family, the two chatted a lot. Most of the questions were asked by Lin Xiuzhu, and Zhuang Xing answered politely.

"I'm waiting for you. "Edward Scissorhands" will be released tonight. Zhao Xiaoli helped buy the tickets, and there is one more ticket. I'll ask you to go and see it together."

It is said that Zhao Xiaoli's family background is average. This person is very conscious of making money, and he is a good opportunist. He knows that foreign students are children of rich families, so he is active in the circle of foreign students. Rich students always like to imitate the entertainment methods of the upper class. For example, watching a movie in Europe and the United States in the 90s; holding a music party from time to time, all the foreign students gathered together to dance the dance that is popular in the United States - break dancing; going to the "Dinner Theater" together, they can enjoy stage plays and musicals while eating , comedy or factual satire.

And Zhao Xiaoli organized this kind of entertainment in his own way to earn some tips. Zhuang Xing still has a part-time job at night, so he could only refuse: "I'm very sorry, my work will not end until 10 o'clock, next time." After Zhuang Xing said Apologetically, she nodded towards Lin Xiuzhu, and then hurriedly followed the road out of the campus gate.

Lin Xiuzhu looked at Zhuang Xing's earnest expression of apology, and felt a little disappointed. She kept approaching her again and again, couldn't Zhuang Xing see it?
