Chapter 921 Building momentum (Part 1)
"long time no see!"
JFK Airport, when Zhongshi stepped down the gangway, Paulson immediately stepped forward and gave him a firm hug.
During this period, Zhongshi has been in Europe and China, but has not appeared in North America, and there is no news about Tianyu Fund in the market. Although he knew that Zhongshi had withdrawn from the plan to short Europe, Paulson still longed for Zhongshi to lead them to do something.
So when Zhongshi appeared, he was keenly aware that the situation had changed.
"There should be some big move, I think."
He lowered his voice and whispered to Zhong Shi, "I've been dormant for so long, I should come out and do something."
"Haha, I've been doing stuff, you just don't know it."
Zhong Shi laughed and avoided talking about Paulson's question, "I recently discovered that Huaxia's real estate business is very profitable. It's frighteningly high, even the industry with the highest profit margin in the world may not be able to compare with Huaxia's real estate!"
"yes?"
Paulson replied disapprovingly, "Could it be said that there is a profit of more than 30% a year? If so, that is really amazing!"
In the U.S. real estate market, the profit margin is very low, and the income of the broker’s commission is only a single digit. This is still a good year. And once a real estate crash like that in 2007 occurs, countless people will give up their real estate, which will lead to chaos in the entire market. This situation is very similar to other industries in the United States, so many people are more and more involved in the financial and high-tech fields, because there are the most profitable.
But in China, the situation is exactly the opposite. Because of the monopoly of land resources, the entire market cannot be liberalized at all. Coupled with the birth boom of babies catching up with the wave of urbanization, the rigid demand is very strong. Under such circumstances, the means of relying on the transfer of land to obtain fiscal revenue is being played by the government with ease, and the rewards for the hard work of generations can only be filled into the ever-rising housing prices.
In later generations, a world-renowned high-tech company in Huaxia was also forced to relocate because it couldn't stand the skyrocketing housing prices. This news once caused a sensation, but it still didn't help the overall situation.
Zhong Shi saw early on that China's housing prices were a game of beating drums and spreading flowers, but the cycle of this game was a bit long, so he dared to break in and make a pot of gold.
"50%, this is just the general profit level in the industry!"
Zhong Shi smiled slightly, and gave a figure that stunned Paulson, "Although the government collects many complicated taxes in various links, even so, the real estate company can still get such an astonishing figure. And in big In middle cities, house prices are still rising, with an average annual increase of more than 20%. This means that even if you don’t sell, you may get more profits in the future.”
"My God, how did this happen?"
Paulson exaggerated, "God, should I participate in such a good thing? It's crazy to make 50% of the profit just sitting around. No, I must participate!"
His tone became firm.
"Sorry, the government stipulates that foreign capital cannot enter China's real estate market!"
Seeing Paulson's expression, Zhong Shi couldn't help but smiled wryly, and poured cold water on him, "Because the construction industry can absorb a large amount of local labor, the possibility of foreign capital entering is almost zero. The price is low, even if foreign capital can enter, it is impossible to compete with local real estate developers. So it is more practical for you to hold some real estate stocks.”
"That's a shame."
Walking towards the reception car, Paulson shook his head and sighed, "I'm not familiar with your market, so I don't intend to enter it in the short term."
He said it quite euphemistically, but the meaning is very clear, that is, not to enter Huaxia's capital market.
"By the way, what are you going to plan this time?"
After and Zhong Shi got into the carriage one after the other, Paulson snapped his fingers, and the Mercedes-Benz sped out from the warehouse of the private jet and went straight to the hotel in the urban area. On the back seat, Paulson pondered for a while, but finally couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and asked, "I believe you have held back for so long, and now that you reappear, it should be the time, right?"
"Yes, I am going to attack Italy and Spain!"
As soon as Zhong Shi opened his mouth, Paulson was greatly surprised.
"What, did I hear correctly?"
He shook his head vigorously twice, with a look of doubting that his head was not bright, then looked at Zhong Shi, and found that the other party was serious and did not mean to be joking at all. He immediately felt a chill in his heart, sat up, and asked seriously , "Mr. Zhong, is what you said true?"
"certainly!"
Zhong Shi put on a straight face, with a serious look, "I don't know how to joke when I trade, I don't think you have seen me joking, have you?"
"That's true!"
Paulsen tilted his neck and thought for a while, then nodded subconsciously, "No. But...but didn't you reach an agreement with the European side? Why, are you planning to tear up the agreement now?"
He was very puzzled. Because he understands the ins and outs of the whole matter, and even knows the means used by the European government against Zhongshi. But now Zhong Shi is going to repeat the same mistakes, which makes him feel very incredible.
"I said I was going to attack Italy and Spain, and I said the news!"
Until this time, a slight smile appeared on Zhong Shi's face, and he said to Paulson with a relaxed expression, "But I have no intention of really attacking these two countries. Remember, this is just rumors. "
"So it is!"
Paulsen suddenly realized, and finally understood what was going on, but he soon realized another problem, "But why did you make such a rumor? Is there any follow-up method?"
"What do you think of the current economic situation in Europe?"
Regarding Paulson's question, Zhong Shi pondered for a long time before saying, "Also, before that, you must promise me one thing, that is, everything I said now and later, you must not disclose to anyone, including you. wife."
"Is it so serious?"
Paulsen's expression suddenly became serious. After hesitating for a while, he raised his right hand to the sky and solemnly swore, "I swear in the name of God that everything I heard today will never be leaked to the outside world."
"By the way, why are you asking me about the economic situation in Europe?"
After solemnly swearing, he relaxed and continued the topic just now, "According to the data they disclosed this month, there is no improvement at all. The most serious thing is that the unemployment rate in European countries is generally high, and young people can reach half of them." There are no jobs, which is a terrible proportion. I really can't imagine how Europe should get through this difficult time."
"It is nothing more than lowering interest rates to stimulate the flow of funds to the production field."
Zhong Shi said lightly, "If you step into a liquidity trap, then implement a long-term low interest rate policy to lower people's expectations, so that even in a long period of time, capital will have to be invested in the production field. Of course , if these things don’t work, I don’t know what to do.”
"what do you mean…"
Paulson is quite shrewd, and guessed Zhong Shi’s potential meaning after a little thought, “The European side is going to implement QE? They have been lowering interest rates for the past few months. Could it be that they can’t wait?”
He looked pensive, a little understanding why Zhong Shi asked him to swear.
Soon, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. Like Zhongshi, he quickly saw an arbitrage opportunity. This opportunity was so great that he couldn't imagine it, so much so that his whole body trembled with excitement.
"Tell me about where you can set traps!"
Seeing Paulson's expression, Zhong Shi was quite emotional. Sure enough, no one who can get along in this circle is a fool, and Paulson is one of them. In fact, he is not only not stupid, but also frighteningly shrewd.
"Set a trap?"
Paulson shuddered suddenly, but soon came to his senses and said, "Is this planning to set a trap for American capital? Is it to take advantage of the so-called Italy and Spain, or the opportunity of QE?"
"Think for yourself!"
Zhong Shi’s expression was unfathomable, and he didn’t point it out. He just said, “Europe is very determined this time. If the whole plan is implemented, it will not only shock the world, but also completely cut off American capital from Europe. coveted. Believe me, this could be the biggest financial war in history.”
"So exaggerated?"
The corners of Paulson's mouth twitched twice, he lowered his head and thought for a long time before he replied uncertainly, "If I was the one who planned it, then I would make a fuss about the national debt of Italy and Spain. The size of the country's bonds has reached hundreds of billions of euros, and the capital that can be leveraged is close to trillions. I am afraid that this will become the largest financial battle in history, right?"
That was all he could think of.
"Just wait and see, I won't tell you what will happen now. But as your friend, I can only advise you to stay away from this place of right and wrong!"
Facing Paulson's eager eyes, Zhong Shi just shook his head slightly, and didn't say much, instead pointing to the scenery outside the window, he said, "The destination is here!"
Paulson didn't notice it at all. Just in the middle of the conversation between the two, the two had already arrived at the hotel in the city center. He hurriedly got out of the car, then respectfully ran to Zhongshi's side, and graciously opened the car door under the surprised eyes of the doorman.
"By the way, find me some familiar reporters, I need to spread this news!"
The moment he got off the car, Zhong Shi suddenly remembered something, "Also, don't forget to count me in any social occasions in the financial industry in New York recently. I want to make a high-profile appearance!"
