Chapter 632: On the Resilience of Capital Markets to

  Chapter 632 "On the Resistance of the Capital Market to Large-scale Corrections" (seeking monthly ticket)

  Liu Qingshan finished his schoolwork for the day and returned to his apartment. Before he opened the door, he heard the phone ringing incessantly.

  He quickly opened the door and entered the room, picked up the phone, and Boss Huo's questioning voice came from over there:

   "Brother Qingshan, why don't you take your brother to play with you if you don't study well in the United States and make such a big commotion on Hong Kong Island?"

   Liu Qingshan was also a little dazed by the question, and he finally figured it out after Boss Huo nagged on the phone for a while.

  It turned out that Young Master Li had already agreed to bet against each other, but he also brought in several rich young people from Hong Kong Island, and raised a total of one billion Hong Kong dollars to participate in this gamble.

   Li Dashao also recruited HSBC Bank to do financial supervision and make off-market options for both parties. Now the whole Hong Kong Island is a sensation.

  Liu Qingshan held the microphone, and couldn't help blinking: it's so big.

   But bigger is better.

   Harvesting these rich people, he will not have a trace of psychological pressure.

  If you really short Hong Kong stocks, those small shareholders, I don’t know how many of them will jump off the building, which is not what they want.

  But for those wealthy families, there is no problem of jumping off the building, it is just a matter of robbing the rich and helping the poor.

  At the beginning, Liu Qingshan also thought about it, and wanted to pull Boss Huo to do it together.

  However, considering that the Huo family's relationship on Hong Kong Island is intricate, he didn't take the initiative to mention it. After all, taking people's money, such as killing their parents, is easy to make enemies.

  After listening to Liu Qingshan's explanation, Boss Huo felt much more at ease:

   "Hey, brother Qingshan, this time I'm going to take out 200 million to accompany you and play with those little guys."

   "Don't worry, my Huo family is on Hong Kong Island, so I don't have to look at other people's faces to do things!"

  After the communication on the phone, Liu Qingshan brought in another ally. In this way, their funds already reached 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

   To bet against Young Master Li and the others, you have to use double leverage.

  Anyway, HSBC is backing him up, so he doesn't have to worry about not being able to get the money.

  As for the risk of using leverage, for Liu Qingshan, there is no risk.

   After dinner, Liu Qingshan received another call from Hong Kong Island. This time, it was from Pan Mingbrand, who operates luxury goods.

  As soon as he came up, the other party was also in the same tone as a teacher: "Brother Qingshan, why didn't you bring me to play with such an interesting thing?"

   "Now the young talents on Hong Kong Island are all joining in this gamble, leaving me alone, I am very embarrassed."

  To be honest, Liu Qingshan's friendship with Pan Mingpai is far from being comparable to that of Boss Huo, so he will not take the initiative to call him.

  After some exchanges, Pan Mingpai was also willing to spend 100 million Hong Kong dollars to join Liu Qingshan's camp.

   Liu Qingshan didn't even understand: Why do these people have such confidence in themselves?

  So he couldn't help asking: "Brother Pan, are you not afraid that the money will go to waste?"

   "I'm optimistic about you." Pan Mingpai happily put down the phone.

  Then Mingxing Yang, who had been waiting beside him, stepped forward and took his arm: "Dickson, do you trust that person that much?"

  Pan Mingpai kissed his girlfriend on the face: "I am really optimistic about him, and even if we lose the bet, we will not lose."

   Yang Mingxing blinked, a little confused.

  Pan continued to laugh and said: "This bet has already caused a sensation in Hong Kong. If I join in, it will be the best publicity for my luxury store. Just think of it as spending money on advertising."

   "It turns out that's the case, I knew that you are the best, Disheng." Yang Mingxing also smiled like a flower.

  Pan Mingpai felt itchy in his heart when he saw it, and leaned against his girlfriend's ear, biting her earlobe lightly: "My place is even better."

   After finishing speaking, he hugged Yang Mingxing by the waist and walked towards the bedroom.

  Pan Famous Brand is overturning, while Liu Qingshan is struggling to climb the grid. He is writing a thesis.

  This is the most influential Professor Peter of the School of Economics, giving students an assignment to express their views on the current stock market.

   Liu Qingshan just wanted to find a theoretical basis for his next action, so he wrote it very carefully.

  He even went to the library to check the information for several days, and took out the big stock market crash in the United States in 1929 for comparison.

  With the conclusion, the rest is to find the theoretical basis, which is relatively easy.

  The title of the dissertation is finally determined as: "On the Capital Market's Resistance to Large-scale Corrections".

  Through the detailed data and meticulous analysis of the thesis, it finally draws an astonishing conclusion: In the near future, the US stock market will usher in another big stock market crash.

  When this paper was placed on Professor Peter's desk, the gray-haired old professor was also slightly shocked.

  As a member of the President's think tank, Professor Peter has experienced too many major events, especially at the national economic level.

  Professor Peter also felt a little flustered by the current extreme prosperity of the stock market, so he arranged such a paper.

  Unexpectedly, some students even made a prediction of a big stock market crash. Isn't this a bit too alarmist?

  Professor Peter loves students who are down-to-earth, and never suppresses their genius ideas, but he has never had a good impression of students who deliberately create shocking information.

   "Let me see which high-achieving student it is, I will consider giving him a Fail." The professor muttered while flipping through the author's name.

  University here, grades are like this: A is excellent, B is good, C is fair, D is pass, F is fail.

   "Liu, that composer from the East, oh, he should go to the conservatory instead of studying economics here!"

  Professor Peter wrote a big F on the paper.

   At this time, the assistant led several people to knock on the door and came in. When Professor Peter saw the people coming, he immediately went up and hugged them one by one:

   "Oh, Soros, and Rogers, welcome, my old friends."

  These people were all invited by Professor Peter to give lectures to those college students. This kind of situation is very common in universities in the United States.

   Invited objects include professionals and even celebrities.

   "Peter, you should hold an economic forum, so that it will be more influential." Soros and Peter are old friends for many years, so they sat in the professor's chair just now without any politeness.

  Professor Peter also smiled: "Your proposal is very good, so let's make it so. Please ask our Mr. Soros to donate a sponsorship fee of 200,000 US dollars every year."

   "No problem, let's start this year." Soros was not stingy at all.

  Don't look at Mr. Soros' reputation in the financial market is very bad, but before the rise of Bill Gates, Soros was the person with the largest number of charitable donations in the United States.

   No wonder some people say he is: half angel, half devil.

   Rogers also came up to make fun of it: "Then it should be called a relatively high-end name. It sounds like the world's top one. How about calling it the Economist High-end Summit?"

  Everyone couldn't help laughing. Professor Peter was more rigorous: "If we start the first summit this year, it will be too hasty. We haven't prepared the agenda yet."

  Soros picked up a note from his desk: "Peter, the thesis you assigned to the students is very suitable for discussion. The stock market is too hot now."

   After finishing speaking, he picked up a stack of thick manuscript paper and flipped through it casually: "Hey, someone actually slandered the stock market. For such a paper, he must be given an F."

   "Let me see, George, you are too optimistic. We must always be in awe of the stock market instead of just using it as a tool to make money."

   Rogers also took the past and started reading. His point of view is different from Soros, and he also feels that the current US stock market has too much bubble.

  While watching, Rogers also picked out his own point of view from time to time and read out a few sentences, which seemed to be quite appreciative.

  After roughly finishing the reading, he said to Professor Peter solemnly: "Professor, I think this paper should be given an A, and it may sound a wake-up call for all investors."

  Professor Peter's face also became serious. He felt that he might be a little biased just now. After all, this is a controversial paper, so it is not easy to draw conclusions.

  Soros didn't think so: "No, this little guy is obviously trying to attract the professor's attention on purpose, and then get a high score. Let me see, who is this scheming little guy?"

  After seeing the signature, Soros immediately widened his eyes and whistled lightly: "Wow, Rogers, look who this little guy is?"

   "Liu, it sounds like an overseas student from China." Rogers didn't know Liu Qingshan in detail, so he only knew his English name.

  Soros held the thesis as if he had found a treasure: "It's that young man named Mountain. I can't hold back anymore. I want to refute his thesis into a pile of shit."

  Seeing that his old friend who was decades old became as excited as a kid, Rogers couldn't help shrugging his shoulders:

   "Oh, old man, you're too vengeful."

  Liu Qingshan didn't know that he had already been missed. As usual, he had breakfast and went to school.

  In the morning, there was a big class given by Professor Peter, and the professor announced a message: asking his students to attend the forum tomorrow.

  He also specifically emphasized that there will be several well-known economists present, including many Wall Street investors.

  After class, the students were very excited.

  In the past two years, as the U.S. stock market has soared, many high-achieving students from prestigious schools who originally disdained to do odd jobs on Wall Street have also put on suits, ties, and greasy hair to become Wall Street analysts or traders.

   Now I heard that there are seniors from Wall Street coming to give lectures. Of course, these students who are eager to get rich are all as if they have been beaten.

  Listening to the twittering around him, Liu Qingshan was not very interested. He packed up his belongings and prepared to leave.

  He is not going to participate in any summit tomorrow. If he has that time, he might as well study by himself in the classroom.

   "Liu, wait a minute, tomorrow's forum, I hope to see you, otherwise...you understand."

  Professor Peter's words came from behind, Liu Qingshan could only shrug his shoulders helplessly, and responded with OK, there is no way, this Professor Peter is nicknamed "Great Emperor", which means tyrant.

  The forum on the second day was held in a large lecture hall, which can accommodate thousands of people. Students of several grades from the School of Economics filled up the seats early.

  The layout of the front desk is also very interesting. There are actually two rows of chairs facing each other, which looks like a ring.

   When the time came, Professor Peter took the stage and began to introduce the guests present today: "Let us welcome the most successful investor on Wall Street, Mr. George Soros."

Wow! There was an exclamation from below, and then there was warm applause, accompanied by the clicking of cameras, unexpectedly there were also reporters who were everywhere, sneaking into the venue.

  These young students worship success and wealth, and Soros is such an incarnation.

   Afterwards, several heavyweight figures appeared on stage one after another.

   "Finally, let us welcome Mr. Jim Rogers."

  Professor Peter took the lead in applauding, and the applause below was equally loud. For free investors like Rogers, he is the idol of students who study economics.

   After Rogers also bowed, he did not sit with Soros and the others, but sat on the row of chairs opposite them, and he was alone for the time being.

   After sitting down, Rogers looked around and said to the microphone: "I think this is unfair, so I need to find allies and partners."

   "Professor Peter, can you sit next to me?"

  In the lecture hall, there was a chuckle.

   "No, Jim, I am the chairman of the meeting, or you can also treat me as a referee." Professor Peter also spread his hands exaggeratedly, causing another laugh.

   Rogers shook his head: "It seems that I can only find my teammates by myself."

  His eyes looked into the hall.

   Immediately there was boiling below, swish swish swish, countless arms raised high.

  If you can partner with Mr. Rogers and participate in a debate match, you will definitely be able to blow for several years.

   "Students, please don't get excited. In today's forum, Mr. Rogers' point of view is to look down on US stocks." Professor Peter quickly added.

   With a swish, as if hearing a password, all those arms fell down.

  Are you kidding, the stock market is booming now, how can it fall.

  Even if someone wanted to show off, they immediately dismissed the idea:

  What do you say after you go up here, you can’t tell lies with your eyes open. In that case, Professor Peter, who has always been known as the great emperor, will definitely give you a failing grade.

  Rodgers on the stage was also quite capable of acting, and immediately put his hands on his head: "Oh, haven't you heard that the truth is often in the hands of a few people."

   "Then I can only roll the roll, Professor Peter, can you give me the roll call?" Rogers continued to talk nonsense on stage.

  Professor Peter also shook his head cooperatively: "No, only the professor has the right to call names."

   Accompanied by a burst of soft laughter, Rogers suddenly took out a stack of papers from his briefcase, and he wiped his forehead: "Fortunately, I was prepared."

   "This classmate's point of view coincides with mine, and he is just right to be my teammate."

   "Student Qingshan-Liu, come on, let us fight side by side together."

who is it? Most of the students began to look around.

  Then they saw a handsome Asian student standing up and walking forward with a seemingly helpless face.
