Global Monopoly of Technology

Chapter 700 [Betting, history is always surprisingly similar]

It's February.

This period of time can be described as a hustle and bustle, and Luo Sheng, who is a party, has been watching the play, but Zhang Bowen, who is in front, feels a lot of pressure. The door of the company headquarters has been blocked by the media for half a month.

Although Lao Zhang is also blindly confident in Luo Sheng, and has no doubts about his ability to turn the tide, but the situation has developed to this point, it is impossible to say that Lao Zhang is not guilty.

To be the helm of another company, at this time, I am so anxious that my immediate boss is better. Not only does it not calm down the negative news as soon as possible, but I also want to use this to test the company's ability to withstand pressure.

This is outrageous and a little too much.

However, Lao Zhang still stabilized his mentality. He also knew that the situation would be reversed only when the North American side formally sued the ruling. Now it is enough to act according to the plan. Anyway, even if the sky falls, there will be Luo Sheng, the big boss, who will stand up and do it. It's just a matter of time.

...

Science and Technology Complex Building.

This afternoon, Qin Weimu came over to report the record to Luo Sheng.

"The net profit of this one is 300 billion US dollars, of which the short-selling Bluestar Technology made a profit of 120 billion US dollars. The CIA has now confirmed that Wall Street knows the inside information. Otherwise, the short-selling Bluestar Technology's income can increase by about 140%." Qin Weimu said simply.

The first half of this contest is over.

Obviously, Qin Weimu's shorting is not only a stock of Bluestar Technology, because he knows that this black swan event will cause the global stock index to plummet, and the fact is far beyond her expectations, and the result is an excess return.

Of the $300 billion in profits, $160 billion went to the Luo Sheng Family Fund, and the rest went to Shengfeng Capital.

In fact, it is completely possible to take this profit alone, but Luo Sheng did not let her do it. A large number of rich people in the world entrust him with their money, and they must see the real benefits, so that they will be more determined to support support.

Of course, Shengfeng Capital has not disclosed this information yet. Those rich people do not know that the funds they handed over to Luo Sheng have already generated a considerable income, and now is not the time to tell them.

Luo Sheng is not dead-headed either. If he offends a group of people, he has to win over a group of people.

Money can never be earned. For him, no matter how much money he earns, it is only a change in numbers. What he cares more about is the actual influence.

"The people on Wall Street should have made a lot of money this time, and they should be washed out in the second half." Luo Sheng said comfortably, Wall Street never thought that there would be a major reversal in the future, they were still thinking about the past. The unforgettable dream - forcing the Cote d'Azur to go public.

Only by listing can we share the outrageous profits of the Côte d'Azur.

Qin Weimu said lightly: "Just wash it out? No, they earn too much, it's unreasonable."

The implication was to take a piece of meat off the gang on Wall Street. Luo Sheng, who was sitting next to her, gave her a silent thumbs up. The industry insiders gave her the nickname "Financial Empress." She is also a ruthless character.

It stands to reason that women are perceptual creatures, and it is not suitable for this business, but there are very few exceptions in routine, and Qin Weimu is obviously an exception.

After earning so much this time, he has to earn a bigger wave later. Luo Sheng feels that he must treat her well and "serve" her comfortably, and she will play better in the second half...

...

As time goes by, the outside world is still decrying Luo Sheng and his company on a large scale, and the heat remains high. Many people who originally looked at him unhappy but didn't dare to come out and shout at him, have also started to fall into trouble at this time, gloating at the misfortune.

There is a tendency for the wall to be pushed down by the crowd and the drum to be beaten by thousands of people.

However, most of the people who jumped out and fell to the ground were anonymous, and obviously they were a little delusional about Luo Sheng's energy. As the saying goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

The current situation is that everyone seems to think that Luo Sheng's magical halo is about to be broken, and he is heading for a trend of prosperity and decline.

At this time, the world's richest people who handed over a huge amount of funds to Luo Sheng in the past few years are also heartbroken. Some people are afraid that Luo Sheng will not be able to survive this level, and start to contact Shengfeng Capital with the mentality of giving it a try. Redeem your own funds.

They didn't know that Luo Sheng had already shared a profit with them.

There is no doubt that the answer given is: refusal.

The door has been welded to death long ago, and I have to redeem my funds after the lock-up period, which means waiting for more than ten years.

In the hustle and bustle of the outside world, Qin Weimu has already started the second half of the game.

...

Wall Street.

A group of people began to enter and leave the major investment banks on Wall Street. They were all dressed in suits and leather shoes, and they were representatives of the standard successful people and elite groups in the eyes of ordinary people.

Deutsche Bank.

At a table in the corner of the reception hall by the floor-to-ceiling windows, a bank clerk was receiving a customer who had just come over. The customer was a man in his forties. When he made the next request, the person who received him asked The Deutsche Bank clerk was a little unbelievable.

"Wait, Mr. Carr, what did you just say? You said you were going to bet on Bluestar's call options?"

The man named Karl took a sip of coffee and nodded affirmatively: "That's right."

After the salesman got the other party's response again, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but say: "Mr. Carl, do you think Bluestar's stock price can go up at this position? With all due respect, Bluestar is really finished this time. , the market value of US$900 billion is even overestimated, and it will further fluctuate down to the range of US$700 billion in the future, and the reason why it can maintain this position is because of the huge size of his fundamental market in Greater China.”

Carl said with a smile: "According to the current situation, it's true, but I like to do the opposite. I only care if you can do this contract now. If you don't, then I have to go to other investment banks. My time is precious. , please give me your answer."

The salesman hurriedly said: "Yes, of course, why not? Then let's adopt a pay-as-you-go option to make compensation in case of default. If Bluestar's stock continues to fall, you have to pay us monthly premiums. ."

Carl nodded: "No problem, this is my prospectus for Bluestar Technology's five-gear call option."

After he finished speaking, he took out a thick document from his briefcase. It took several hours to read it. The salesman took over the document and muttered to himself: "The nominal principal of the contract is 220 million US dollars. The exercise price is $284.85, the opening price is $427.25, and the settlement price at expiration is the average price on the day the contract is terminated..."

Time passed by minute by minute.

At the end, the salesman sitting opposite Carl closed the documents, looked at him and said, "OK, let's sign the contract."

"I also want to determine the solvency of your bank in the event of a default," Carr said at the time.

The salesman couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Karl, do you think Deutsche Bank will default on its debts? Speaking of this, it reminds me of a private equity manager named Michael who came to our bank about ten years ago. The real estate market has caused our bank to suffer heavy losses. He won, and our bank did not default on his account. Credit is fundamental, so please rest assured, Mr. Carr."

"Then I can rest assured, let's sign the contract."

Soon, the two parties signed the contract. After Carl put the contract into his briefcase, he chatted and asked, "I heard that the salesman who signed the contract with Mr. Michael was fired by your bank in the end."

"Huh? Mr. Carr, do you mean you've won this bet? And I'm going to get fired for this deal? Please, it wasn't ten years ago, times have changed, and the same thing can't happen. It happened a second time." The salesman sitting opposite Carl said with a smile.

Carl put his briefcase on his lap, raised his brows and smiled, "We'll see."

After saying that, he left.

Carl still has $780 million in his hand, so he has to continue to negotiate contracts with other banks. At the same time, there are also a group of people who are running around Wall Street just like Carl. The major investment banks are betting on the call options of Bluestar Technology.

These people are employees of some private equity institutions. They are only performing their work according to the requirements of their bosses. Behind the scenes of those private equity institutions, Qin Weimu is directing them.

Most investment banks on Wall Street laughed at this kind of "giving money" without much thought, but there were always exceptions, and one investment bank was wary of such a good thing that fell out of the sky.
