The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 319 The decision of the Li family

On the same day, the Hong Kong stock market also responded to Andrew's remarks. It opened up 1071 points, standing firmly above 10,000 points, and closed at 10,765 points throughout the day, a surge of 1705 points, an increase of 18.82%, sweeping away the previous decline. It has become the most dazzling market in this round of global stock market rebound.

  Andrew's words were once again fulfilled by the market, which made his reputation in the capital market higher and higher.

Small and medium shareholders and outsiders are most concerned about what Andrew said about the performance of heavyweight stocks and not shorting the Hong Kong dollar. The former involves their big plans to make money, while the latter is a rare insider gossip. Hotspots all over town. Whether they understand finance or not, people who speculate in stocks or not are all talking about it. After all, after the previous period of slump, people from all walks of life have been affected to varying degrees. People who care about the economy and the stock market began to shift their attention to this aspect.

  Compared to the hype in the city, the reaction of the real capital circle to Andrew's speech was rare. No one or institution came out to refute or echo, as if nothing had happened.

  Behind the public silence, there was a heated argument. This kind of quarrel not only happened within each fund, even some wealthy families had different opinions because of this.

In the Li family's mansion in Repulse Bay, an old man who looks to be only in his fifties, with a back comb and black wide-rimmed glasses, is sitting on the sofa, leaning on a cane in one hand, and looking at the other hand. He seemed to be tapping the armrest of the sofa aimlessly.

   Opposite him sat two people, one was a middle-aged beautiful woman who looked to be in her forties, she was well maintained, and her real age could not be seen. At this time, she was reading a document carefully, marking it with a signature pen from time to time. The other was a young man in his thirties, frowning and staring at the TV, his expression fluctuating, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Okay, Zeji, you've watched it over and over again, don't you understand? Just ask him if it's okay?" When the young man turned the screen back to the time when Andrew was speaking, bringing The old man with wide-rimmed glasses finally couldn't help but speak.

  The young man obediently responded, and turned off the TV. As if he suddenly remembered something, his eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly, "Old Dou (in vernacular, Dad), do you know this foreign devil?"

  The old man he called "Old Dou" shook his head slightly and said, "What foreign devil? I don't know this guy, but I do know his boss. Speaking of which, I still owe him a big favor."

  When the young man heard what his old Dou said, his face darkened at first, and his expression was a little sullen, but then he became excited again, but when he heard the last sentence, his expression changed to bewildered. His expression changes so fast, it's even worse than a chameleon.

If it was in a public place, this kind of performance would definitely be considered by the outside world as a city without a chest, but after all, this is not the outside world, but in his own home, so the old man did not feel any displeasure, but nodded approvingly, and then said: "Last year! When you encountered that incident, because the news leaked, the stock prices of the two companies plummeted. Fortunately, the boss behind this foreign devil stepped in to support him, and he urgently borrowed one billion Hong Kong dollars from me, which saved you from danger."

   "What?" Thinking of the incident last year, the young man's face immediately changed, and his brows that were already tightly frowned deepened a bit, obviously recalling some unpleasant experiences.

  Yes, this Li Zeji is the protagonist of the kidnapping case that caused a sensation in Hong Kong last year, and the eldest son of Hong Kong's richest man, Li Jiacheng. On his way home from Central last year, he was snatched by kidnappers. It is rumored that the leader of the kidnappers came to negotiate with Li Jiacheng in person, and the two parties finally settled the deal at a price of 1.08 billion Hong Kong dollars. Since the Li family did not report to the police from the beginning to the end, the Hong Kong police had no way of intervening in the whole matter.

  Although the police did not intervene, the news spread. It's just that people didn't expect that there was even a shadow of Zhongshi in it.

  Although he is the richest man in Hong Kong, in fact Li Jiacheng does not have much cash in the bank, only a few hundred million Hong Kong dollars. However, as a member of the board of directors of HSBC, he can naturally withdraw a large amount of cash in a short period of time. However, it was difficult for HSBC at that time to use so much cash in a short time. Cash also takes time.

At this time, Li Jiacheng suddenly remembered that Zhong Shi once said to him that he had reserved two billion Hong Kong dollars in cash for him to withdraw, so he tried to call Zhong Shi, but the other party did not say anything, and immediately took out the money in HSBC. The cash in it also protected several listed companies under Li Jiacheng, so that their stock prices were not greatly affected.

  Although Zhong Shi took advantage of the low price to absorb a lot of bargaining chips from the Changhe Department and the Huangpu Department, Li Jiacheng did not take it seriously. After all, compared to the shares in his hands, what Zhong Shi absorbed was just a drizzle. Later, after several observations, he found that Zhong Shi did not continue to absorb, and he never put forward different opinions at the shareholders' meeting, so Li Jiacheng also acquiesced in his holding.

   This time, the Hong Kong stock market fell sharply, and several listed companies under Li Jiacheng did not escape. The stock price of the flagship company and heavyweight Changhe Industrial even plummeted by more than 40%. However, Li Jiacheng is not worried about this, because in the long run, the prospects of Changhe Industry are still very optimistic.

   Optimism is optimistic, but new profit points still need to be discovered, so as early as 1993, Li Jiacheng established his own investment company. This company is wholly owned by him and focuses on the capital market. It is similar to PE in nature, but not completely equivalent to PE. Basically, as long as there is an opportunity somewhere, this company will appear there.

  Now, the opportunity has come.

  The "international speculators" Andrew mentioned are about to attack the currency of a certain East Asian country. It's just that the current situation has not been clarified, and no one can guarantee that what Andrew said is true, and this is where the disagreement occurs.

"Li Sheng, I have analyzed it carefully. It seems that there are certain problems in South Korea's economic development, which is very suitable for the target of the attack. According to my research during this period, I found that international speculators first targeted those economies that had problems, and then Then use the opportunity to attack other currencies. Now, for them, there is both the right time and the right place." While the father and son were talking, the middle-aged beautiful woman raised her head, looked at the two father and son, and interrupted.

   Her name is Zou Kaixuan, and she is Li Jiacheng's special assistant. The outside world calls her Li Chaoren's confidante. In fact, after Li Jiacheng's first wife passed away, Zou Kaixuan acted as the hostess of this mansion.

   Don't think that Zou Kaixuan got his position because of his beauty. In fact, at Li Jiacheng's age, even if he is lustful, he may be powerless to fight. The reason why the two of them have such a close relationship is entirely the friendship accumulated in decades of work.

  Those who can enter Li Jiacheng's eyes naturally have their own advantages. Zou Kaixuan grabbed the first pot of gold from the agency of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and then joined the rich and powerful in the real estate business, and finally sat on the position of the female chairman of the listed company. However, after her company was privatized, she joined Li Jiacheng's company to work, taking care of Li Jiacheng's daily life.

   "So, what that foreign devil said is really possible?" Li Jiacheng touched his chin when he heard the words, and said thoughtfully. After he finished speaking, he thought about it again, picked up the phone beside him, and dialed Zhong Shi's number.

   "Sheng Li, what's the matter?" As soon as the call was connected, Zou Kaixuan and Li Zeji lowered their breathing and listened carefully to what they were saying. They were also very curious about what kind of character the foreign devil's boss was. To their surprise, there was a young-sounding voice on the other end of the phone, which disappointed them greatly.

   Zou Kaixuan was a little better, but frowned slightly, while Li Zeji's performance was a bit unbearable, lying heavily on the sofa, with a disapproving expression.

  Li Jiacheng saw the performance of the two of them in his eyes, but at this time he didn't have the time to teach the eldest son a lesson, so he whispered into the microphone: "Zhong Sheng, is there any good development project recently, let me introduce it, let's make a fortune together!"

  After several times of contact with Zhong Shi, Li Jiacheng didn't take it seriously at first. This young man has a perverted temperament, he doesn't distinguish between superiors and inferiors, and he looks a little arrogant. However, with the deepening of his understanding, he discovered that Zhong Shi really had the arrogance to rise up like a comet. He used several stock market crashes to earn the capital to make a fortune, and then became a tycoon in the capital market.

   More importantly, this young man is only in his twenties this year, and it is hard to say what he will achieve in the future.

   Therefore, Li Jiacheng regarded Zhong Shi as a person who was on an equal footing with him.

  After hearing Li Jiacheng's tone, Zou Kaixuan showed surprise on his face. In her memory, the people who could make Li Jiacheng treat each other as equals were either high-ranking officials or peers with similar status and wealth. As for those whose status and wealth are not as good as his, Li Jiacheng is very polite, and the guests make people feel overwhelmed.

   Obviously, the young man on the other side of the microphone does not belong to the unusually polite category.

   Zou Kaixuan was shocked by his discovery!

   Thanks to Magic Dragon War Ghost, 28651922, and ANSENLV for voting for monthly support!
