Global Monopoly of Technology

Chapter 627 [The crash of the euro caused by a dinner party]

April 9, around 19:50 in the evening.

On the third floor of the living area of ​​the science and technology complex building, the entire floor here is dedicated to the banquet hall. At this moment, a private dinner initiated by Luo Sheng as the host will start in about ten minutes.

At the entrance of the main entrance, one after another of luxurious business seats drove in, and the people who walked out of the car were all foreign faces, dressed as gentlemen.

These are the top hedgers from Wall Street.

...

Banquet scene.

"Belated congratulations, but I still want to say, congratulations to you, Mr. Watson, for successfully sitting on the board of Goldman Sachs." Luo Sheng put one hand in his trouser pocket and stood quietly with a goblet in the other. And is talking to him impressively is Goldman Sachs director Paul Watson.

"To be honest, Mr. Luo, it should be me who should say thanks, otherwise I would not have sat on the board of directors so smoothly." Paul Watson said with a sincere face, but it was the same.

Luo Sheng also said that he was noncommittal. Paul Watson was in charge of Bluestar Technology's business for Goldman Sachs, and Goldman Sachs made a lot of money because of Bluestar Technology.

It should be, this is the return both parties want to obtain.

"Next time you come to New York, please be sure to inform me, and I will receive you with the highest regulations." Paul Watson added, and now there is a picture of harmony, and those who do not know will not think of the two parties before. Instead, they feel that they are the most intimate and cooperative partners.

Both sides have a tacit understanding of not mentioning the past grievances, and have a great sense of letting go of the past and building on the past.

"Haha, I can imagine the specifications of the reception, which will definitely be unforgettable in my life. I will be fully prepared if I go." Luo Sheng said with a smile, and Paul Watson also smiled.

They are all talking nonsense. It seems like a harmonious scene, but in fact they are secretly fighting.

"Hi, Mr.Luo!"

Hearing someone calling his name, Luo Sheng looked at the sound and saw a foreigner wearing glasses walking over. It was an old friend, and it was John Paulson, the founder of the Paulson Hedge Fund. He replied, "Long time no see old man, I heard that you are going to do a private sale? Count me in."

After he finished speaking, he invited the cup to signal,

They also started chatting and chatting, and the people who came here are the best of the best.

At around 20:00, everyone who was supposed to come came, and the dinner officially started. However, eating, drinking, and having a dinner together is definitely not the theme of this evening, but it is just for this reason.

There are not many people, only fifteen, but each of them is a well-known top hedge tycoon in the investment world.

For example, James Simmons of Renaissance, Philip Falco of Pioneer Capital, Ken Griffin of Castle Investment, etc. These bosses are much higher than the hot money bosses and private equity funds of Big A, both in terms of investment philosophy and investment volume.

Soon, the crowd gradually got to the point in the business of eating and drinking.

Paulson was the first to point the question, saying: "The current poor economic and debt problems of various countries in Europe are no longer enough to support the current trend of the euro. The euro should fall to the same price as the dollar."

Paul Watson immediately looked at Luo Sheng and asked tentatively, "Mr. Luo, what do you think of Britain's June referendum to leave the European Union?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Luo Sheng in unison, and the latter smiled: "Well... it's hard to say, but people on earth know that the British will never suffer in terms of running fast, it can It doesn’t make a profit, but it’s definitely not a loss, which is the essence of hedging.”

"Hahaha."

Everyone suddenly burst into low-pitched laughter. Fortunately, there were no British people at today's dinner.

The joke is that those present at the meeting have heard from Luo Sheng's tone that he has revealed a pessimistic view on the future of Auzhou.

Paulson immediately stared at Luo Sheng and said straight to the point: "Old friend, we want to attack the euro, but it is very difficult, but if you have your support, the power of the empty side will be absolutely crushed, so in a sense, , your attitude will determine the future direction of the euro."

If Luo Sheng supports him, the bearish predators present really don't know how they lose. This time, there will never be another behind-the-scenes trader who is "pulling his butt legs" behind his back, right?

The last time he failed miserably, it was because he was hit by Luo Sheng's "pulling the butt legs", and now he has directly turned Luo Sheng into a member of his allies.

How to lose?

At the end, Luo Sheng said succinctly: "You guys go to sabotage, I won't participate, I choose to be the savior of Wuzhou."

Paulson, Paul Watson and others looked at each other, and after a while of silence, Paulson turned to look at Luo Sheng again, and raised his glass with a smile: "Agree!"

The other hedging bosses also silently invited the cup with smiles, which means they all agree.

Reaching a consensus is as simple as that without the slightest hesitation, and dealing with smart people can save a lot of time.

They are not afraid that Luo Sheng will be behind them this time, not because of promises, not because of contracts, but because the interests themselves are very clear, Paulson knows that Luo Sheng is now wrestling with the euro zone and needs to beg the people of the continent to ask him, so he wants to Play the savior, that's what he wants.

As for what the big guys on Wall Street want, they have always been very specific, and they have never changed their minds - profit.

Then someone has to ravage the island, right?

There is no doubt that Paulson and the others all get what they need. The short sellers sniped at the euro to make a profit. Luo Sheng finally came to Wuzhou as the savior, and most of the money in his hand was It is the investor's money, and Wall Street also has interests in it, including local capital in Ouzhou.

Profits from sniping on the euro, Luo Sheng’s layout and attack on the continent, they still profited, they won both, and they won twice, why not Paulson and the others?

Attacking the euro is also in North America's interests, and mortal enemies can also be temporarily reconciled under the common interests.

There is no love-hate relationship in the adult world, only transactions.

And Luo Sheng can also naturally get what he wants in this transaction. The fine is definitely not required, and the people who beat the continent have come to beg him and dare to issue a fine?

In the next five years, the Ouzhou market will be able to stabilize without any moths. By the way, AMSL, the semiconductor industry and Ouzhou will be solved, and this market will be solved.

The spark of the dinner coincided with the trend of the euro. A record since 1999, that is, 70,000 futures contracts shorting the euro, was born in today's dinner.

On the third day after the dinner, the euro suffered a heavy sell-off, with the euro falling below 1.36 against the dollar, tumbling 126 basis points.

A dinner sparked a slump in the euro.

At the same time when the euro was shorted, Paulson, who returned to New York, began to write an article about the euro, and made public remarks in a tone of warning: if Mengmeng did not solve its financial problems, the fate of the euro would collapse.

In the month after the dinner, the size of the euro short position betting on the euro's decline jumped 120% from $8 billion to $17.6 billion.

This time the euro has plummeted, and there are good reasons for Wall Street hedge bosses to be bearish on the euro. There has been too much bad news for the euro recently. The British Isles are about to leave the European Union. The HIIB investment bank downgraded the credit rating and the S\u0026P its rating, etc.

Short institutions alone are not enough to cause the euro to plummet, as the euro trades very heavily on a daily basis.

The real reason is that many people believed Paulson's bearish view of the euro, and Luo Sheng's attitude allowed more bears to join the ranks of shorting the euro, thus accelerating the decline of the euro.

The most important thing is that Luo Sheng didn't end up in person. His size is too terrifying. If he ends up attacking the euro, the economy of the euro area will collapse.

Even Luo Sheng himself is not fully confident that he will not be able to end the game if he plays too big. It is cool to punch out, but if he can't get it back, it will be troublesome. This is not in his original interests.

Luo Sheng didn't and didn't intend to end the game to snipe the Euros, but the Zhou people didn't know his attitude that he didn't intend to end the game, and he was even more frightened. Luo Sheng hadn't left the game yet. That's all. If he did, would he still be okay?

Entering May, Auzhou couldn't take it anymore, and hurriedly sent someone to Luo Sheng to start negotiations as soon as possible.

Hurry up and let those goddamn short agencies take over their magical powers. If you continue to toss like this, the rhythm of Europe will be broken.

They know that Luo Sheng has the influence and strength to prevent short-selling institutions in the euro, because he has several trillion dollars of liquidity in his hands. If the short-selling institutions do not withdraw, as long as Luo Sheng stands up and pulls a handful of euros, these shorts can be sold. A blast.
