The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 333 "Dog" bites "Dog"

Seeing Julian Robertson's appearance, Billy King felt even more uneasy, and stammered even more: "It's just... just... According to the news from my other line, it said... that Xu Youtian not only accepted us money, and... also received other people's money."

   "What?" Julian Robertson, who was still furious, was immediately stunned, unable to say a word for a long time. But he is not an ordinary person after all. After taking a long breath and barely controlling his emotions, he said slowly: "Damn it, why is this Korean so insatiable that he played the trick of one servant serving two masters?" Come."

  Billy King was speechless for a while, thinking that since Xu Youtian had betrayed, it was reasonable to take more money from the family. Besides, there was no reason why Xu Youtian should only be loyal to the Tiger Fund family. But he wasn't worried about this. After seeing Julian Robertson's mood eased, he said boldly: "Boss, this is not the most important thing. According to the information I got, it is said that our spy and someone from Hong Kong Some people are still in contact, it is not clear who exactly, but I already have a rough range."

"..." Julian Robertson pondered for a moment, his face changed several times, and finally heaved a long sigh, and said: "If I remember correctly, Quantum Fund has an office in Hong Kong, and there is an economist there for him. running around, isn't it?"

"That's right!" Billy King showed a look of admiration on his face at the right time, and praised with a thumbs up: "After all, it's the boss, and he guessed the other party without any effort. Yes, the other family that Xu Youtian serves is exactly Quantum Fund, its contact person is Rodney Jones."

Hearing that what he wanted was confirmed, Julian Robertson was furious, slammed the table and cursed loudly: "This son of a **** is so despicable and dirty, and he did such a thing without business ethics. For God's sake For the sake of this, I must teach him a good lesson, let him know what greed is and will suffer retribution."

  Billy King on the side was speechless for a while, and didn't know what to say at this time. Know that Julian Robertson is yelling at someone while selectively ignoring that he is doing the same thing himself. It's just that Billy King wouldn't be so stupid as to point out the mistakes in the boss' statement at this time.

After losing his temper for a long time, Julian Robertson gradually calmed down, looked at the table and said to himself: "In this way, everything can be explained. They first used our inside line, and then turned around Opening up short positions before we do, taking profits from the depreciation of the Korean Won. This is hateful enough, and now that the insiders are caught again, if they want to gain a good name, the most likely thing they will do is to take all the blame On our heads, that's a very likely thing to happen. If it were me, I would definitely do it. Yeah, that's it."

Thinking of this, he slammed the table again, and shouted in a deep voice: "In that case, I'll make a statement first and let them suffer a dumb loss." After speaking, he turned his head to look at Billy King, with a strange expression on his face. smile.

Billy King, who was still looking down in wonder, looked up and saw Julian Robertson's weird smile. His heart sank. Although he didn't understand why Julian Robertson was laughing, his intuition told him that there was a deep meaning behind this smile. It's definitely related to yourself, and it's not necessarily a good thing.

   "You! Come here!" Julian Robertson hooked his fingers at Billy King, signaling him to come forward.

  Americans will maintain a certain distance between conversations and exchanges. This distance makes both parties feel comfortable. This is their communication culture. Those of the same **** who are closer are often considered to have an ambiguous relationship.

  Billy King only felt his **** tighten, and thought that the boss didn't have any bad news on weekdays. Could it be that he hid it too deeply, and no one knew that he was gay? But at this time, he seemed to have no more choices, so he could only bite the bullet and walk in front of Julian Robertson, and asked in a trembling voice, "Boss, what do you need me to do?"

At this moment, he had already embraced the mentality of chrysanthemums, and he had an expression of death on his face, which made Julian Robertson slightly unhappy, but at this time he had no time to worry about these, he stared straight at Billy King's eyes, He lowered his voice and said, "I need you to contact some media and let the outside world know, just say..."

Seeing that the big boss was not interested in him, Billy King secretly heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, nodded and said: "Okay, no problem, I will do it right away, and I guarantee that tomorrow all major media will publish it on the eye-catching pages." superior."

  …

The next day, the "Wall Street Journal", "Washington Post" and others all published similar reports, the content of which was quite appalling. The headline directly publicized the imminent depreciation of the won, and mentioned in the report that the South Korean government was about to loosen control over the fluctuation range of the won. . Without exception, these news quoted an anonymous source who did not want to be named and had deep research on the hedge fund industry. A well-known hedge fund that made a lot of money on the depreciation of the Thai baht has been shorting the Korean won with all its strength. , It is said that this hedge fund alone has shorted at least US$10 billion in Korean won positions. Previously, the founder of this hedge fund publicly declared that the Asian currency crisis was drawing to a close. As a result, he turned his back on his word and even secretly cooperated with some international hot money to attack the currency system of a country whose economy is not in good condition. It really damaged the entire hedge fund. The reputation of the fund industry.

The report also pointed out that South Korea’s foreign exchange reserves are running low, even lower than a month’s worth of imports. The Bank of Korea has already been discussing the possibility of stopping the market support, and the ruling party and the opposition party have great differences on this. It is reported that relevant resolutions will be discussed at the latest Korean National Assembly, and the Bank of Korea will choose whether to continue to intervene in the foreign exchange market based on the results of the resolution. According to the anonymous source, from the current point of view, the situation is not optimistic.

  As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation in the entire market. Although the article did not name the other party, anyone who has studied the Asian currency crisis in the past few months can tell at a glance that the target of these articles is the Quantum Fund.

And another important financial newspaper "Financial Times" also published a piece of news with a lot of information on this day. Coincidentally, the other party is also a senior person in the hedge fund industry, and he is also unwilling. The anonymous person who disclosed the name released the content that an employee of the Bank of Korea was recently arrested for leaking information. It is rumored that it is related to a hedge fund in the United States. The hedge fund is named after a fierce animal.

  Similarly, anyone who has a little knowledge of the hedge fund industry can easily guess the identity of this hedge fund. It is the famous Tiger Fund.

  Two top hedge funds released unfavorable news at the same time, which caused analysts to fall into a state of confusion for a while, not knowing whose news was true and whose news was false.

But for the South Korean won, no matter which of the two news is true or false, or whether both are true and false, it is irrelevant, because it means that the Korean won has been targeted by top hedge funds, and it is only a matter of time before it continues to fall up.

  Although the South Korean government categorically denies the existence of commercial espionage and reserves the right to pursue legal responsibility against several important financial media, the Korean won has suffered considerable losses. During the Asian trading hours, the Korean won once approached the important threshold of 1,000 won to the US dollar, but finally barely closed at 997.90 after the Bank of Korea spared no effort to protect the market.

  …

   "Zhong Sheng, what's going on?" Ren Ruowei rushed to Zhong Shi's office immediately after the transaction was over, holding two completely different newspapers and asked in a deep voice.

  Strictly speaking, these two pieces of news are good news, which is extremely beneficial to those who short the Korean won. However, the outside world has always had an illusion about the hedge fund industry, that is, they are connected as one, advancing and retreating together. Under the intentional or unintentional rendering of the media, this incorrect impression has been magnified a lot invisibly.

Although Ren Ruowei is also working in the Tianyu Fund, that is, inside the hedge fund, they have almost no connection with the hedge fund in the United States. The only impressions they have are formed through the media. Speculators are conjoined twins.

  He did not suspect that Zhong Shi had played any role in it. In fact, Zhong Shi only knew about it after reading relevant reports, that is, Xu Youtian actually acted as the insider of several financial institutions. Naturally, the reports published in the Financial Times were none of his business.

Seeing that he broke in without even knocking on the door, Zhong Shi frowned and said displeasedly: "What's going on? Are you asking me or blaming me? If it's asking, just use this attitude ? If it is blame, then get out of here immediately, as far away as possible!"

  Ren Ruowei originally wanted to inquire about the specific reason, but he was busy with transactions and finally found time. Under the anxiety in his heart, his actions and tone were a bit abrupt. Hearing Zhong Shi's stern reprimand, he finally came to his senses, and said embarrassingly, "Sorry, boss, I didn't mean that. I was just eager and forgot to be polite..."

  After hearing such an explanation, Zhong Shi's face softened, and he pointed at him with his finger, reminding him: "If there is another time, then you pack up your bags and leave."

   Upon hearing this, Ren Ruowei felt a chill in his heart, and nodded in agreement. Generally speaking, even if he was fired and took away his previous share in the Tianyu Fund, Ren Ruowei would not care so much, after all, he is now worth at least tens of millions of dollars. It’s just that for people at this level, money may not be very important anymore, and being able to compete with international speculators and world-class peers is what they pursue.

Just like Ren Ruowei, if he walks out of Tianyu Fund at this time, there must be a lot of funds to hire him, but there are not many funds that can spend 5 billion US dollars at once for him to "splurge". I'm afraid there won't even be one family. In this case, he naturally cherishes his position in Tianyu Fund.

Seeing that Ren Ruowei realized his mistake with a low eyebrow, Zhong Shi lightly swept the newspaper in his hand and said slowly: "What's so strange about this! A typical dog eats dog. If I didn't guess wrong In other words, both of them have insiders from the Bank of Korea, and both of them know that their insiders are also serving each other, so they just take this opportunity to make a statement to separate the relationship."

   "Then how will the follow-up develop?" Ren Ruowei's face was black and white, and it really changed for a long time, finally accepting this statement that is very likely to be true, and then immediately thought of the follow-up reaction, and couldn't wait to blurt it out.

"Follow-up?" Zhong Shi curled his lips and said disapprovingly: "Since we can guess, then everyone else in the market will guess that with these two major hedge funds leading the charge, I believe there will be short-selling in the Korean won market soon." Climax. If I guess correctly, it will be two days before the won is lost!"

  Ren Ruowei's face twitched suddenly, and he froze on the spot.
