Chapter 925 Waves ahead

   "That's all he said at the meeting!"

  Manhattan, New York, a small building next to Central Corporation, Rodney Jones delivered a document to Soros, "The general content is how to launch a new round of attack on Europe!"

   "Is this impossible?"

  Soros glanced at Jones suspiciously, and couldn't believe what he had just heard, "Didn't he be bought by the European high-level? How could he do such a thing so openly?"

Regarding the grievances between Zhongshi and the European government, Soros is the clearest, because he himself is a fish at the gate of the city, and was even once abandoned by the misunderstood American capital. In the end, he had to choose to change the nature of the fund and announce Retire to resolve.

  In fact, many major American institutions know the fact that Zhongshi is uniting with Europe, including Zhongshi's former allies and those organizations that oppose him, such as JP Morgan. The strange thing is that these people chose to keep the secret without exception, and never disclosed the news easily.

  Even the boss of JP Morgan, after being severely blackmailed by Zhongshi, just spread Zhongshi's reputation as a "villain" everywhere, and never mentioned the fact that he offended the European government. This shows the ugly side of human nature. When one suffers catastrophe, one side yells and yells, while the other side waits to see other people's jokes.

  Soros is also a human being, so he is naturally not exempt, and he has never revealed the reason to others.

  Even if he is retired, the Quantum Fund is still in the hands of Soros. After all, it has transformed into a family fund, which means that he is the largest investor and can ask about the investment direction and strategy of the fund at any time.

  After hearing Rodney Jones' report, Soros' first reaction was that this is impossible!

   "Let's see what he said here first."

Rodney Jones sat down and said playfully, "This guy really revealed a lot of information this time. To be honest, if I didn't understand his motives, even I would be a little moved. I think about it , I don’t even understand what he wants to do, and where is the last move.”

   "Really? Let me see!"

  Hearing Rodney Jones' words, Soros's heart moved, his face became solemn, he put on his reading glasses, and began to read Zhong Shi's speech seriously.

   "What the **** is he going to do?"

Half an hour later, Soros slowly put down his reading glasses, pondered for a while, and then said, "There is nothing wrong with the thinking of the whole speech. It is not only logical but also very operable. If he operates like this, It should make a lot of money."

   "But all of this is impossible. It is impossible for Zhongshi to be so kind, and the European government cannot be so generous! What I can be sure of is that there must be a conspiracy!"

  He came to a conclusion firmly.

  As the opponent of Zhongshi, Soros knows himself better than Zhongshi to a certain extent. Originally, the style of Zhongshi and Tianyu Fund was extremely low-key, but now they are uncharacteristically high-profile, which is quite a strange thing in itself. Now it points to a broad avenue that can make money, which makes Soros feel incredible.

  Of course, most of the fund managers who are in the market don’t think so. They will think that Zhongshi wants to use his own energy to subvert Europe.

   "I've thought about it, and I think there are several possibilities!"

After a long silence, Rodney Jones finally summoned up his courage and said, "That is to say, several premises of Zhongshi's assumptions are not true, such as saying that Europe will respond quickly, or that Europe will implement a low interest rate policy. Only in this way, The market will go in the opposite direction, and those who fall into the trap will lose money."

   "I thought so too, but there's one problem!"

Soros nodded in agreement, but immediately rejected Rodney Jones' hypothesis, "On the one hand, they advocate shorting bonds, and on the other hand, they say that they are betting heavily on the euro. This method of betting on both sides is like Hedging risk. Could it be that this time he is just testing the appeal of the market, rather than real action?"

Generally speaking, the method of betting on both sides is to hedge risks, but for top hedge funds, as long as they take a fancy to one side, they will not hesitate to make heavy bets, and at most do some hedging in the derivatives market, because only in this way can they Maximize the benefits. According to the information disclosed now, Zhong Shi's approach is contrary to the principle of profit maximization.

  So Soros thinks this may be a test of the market.

   "Mr. Soros, your appointment time is up, and the guests are already waiting outside!"

   At this moment, the phone on Soros's desk rang, and the secretary outside the door reminded him that it was time to meet guests.

   "OK, let him in!"

  Soros thought for a while, and decided to meet the visiting guest. At the same time, he quietly put away some confidential documents on the desktop.

   "Should I avoid it?"

  Seeing this scene, Rodney Jones stood up tactfully, and was about to walk outside, "As for the question of Zhongshi, shall we discuss it after your meeting is over?"

   "No need, you can also meet this person, a guy who came out of nowhere."

When talking about the arrival, Soros’ tone was a bit contemptuous, “He was introduced by a guy from Mobil Oil, and it is said that Mobil’s partner commissioned the meeting. I don’t know why he wanted to meet me, but since someone entrusted When I come here, I can only give others this face. What makes me wonder is, I have already retired, why this guy is still working tirelessly to see me!"

   "By the way, this guy is a Chinese."

   He added one last sentence.

Soon a person appeared in their office. He had an Asian face, black hair, yellow skin, small eyes and a flat nose. He was not very good-looking, but he was not ugly either. The kind that you can't recognize when you throw it in the crowd. He was wearing a sky blue casual suit with a wine red shirt inside, paired with khaki slacks and black leather shoes, it can be said that this outfit is simply nondescript.

  After seeing this outfit, Soros and Rodney Jones frowned.

   "Are you Mr. Soros?"

When the visitor saw two people in the office, he couldn't help showing a hint of surprise on his face, but this surprise didn't last long. He walked straight to Soros, stretched out his palm and greeted in English, "Nice to meet you!" To you, I am Zhou Changan, from Huaxia, nice to meet you."

   "Zhou Changan?"

Soros muttered in his heart, but he stretched out his palm with no expression on his face, "Welcome, Mr. Zhou. By the way, let me introduce you. This is our company's chief economist in emerging markets. Rodney Jones."

   "Hello, Mr. Jones."

  Zhou Changan just waved his hand in this direction, and didn't intend to come over to shake hands. This made Rodney Jones quite helpless, and shook his head secretly.

   "I heard from Clark that Mr. Zhou has a very close relationship with Mobil Oil. May I ask whether Mr. Zhou is in the crude oil business?"

  After the two parties sat down, the conversation officially began. Soros first asked, "Are you planning to do some oil business in the United States this time?"

  Clark is naturally the middle lobbyist for Standard Oil.

   "Hehe, I think Mr. Soros must be thinking, why would a stranger like me come to your door?"

Zhou Changan was also straightforward, and said directly with a laugh, "I just relied on the relationship of Huayou Oil, and asked them to find a relationship so that I could meet with Mr. Soros. In the end, they found people from Mobil Oil to do this. For one thing, they have some skills in the United States."

  He snorted twice, his expression full of contempt and disdain.

   "Mr. Zhou is not an oil businessman!"

Soros was a little embarrassed, smiled and said to himself, "I was still wondering why I was favored by the oil company. It turned out that there was another relationship. It seems that the people in Huayou are good, and they were able to complete the project satisfactorily. Mr. Zhou's entrustment."

   "Not bad? It's just a group of dogs, who cares about their good ones!"

   Zhou Changan blurted out suddenly. This passage made Soros and Rodney Jones confused for a while, and they didn't know what to say. As if realizing that he had made a mistake, the man named Zhou Changan hurriedly added, "Mr. Soros, you are right. I am indeed very grateful for their work."

   "I don't know why Mr. Zhou came here this time?"

  Soros gradually lost his patience, and said straight to the point, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

   "Mr. Soros, how much do you think I have?"

Zhou Changan seemed not to have heard what Soros said, and said to himself, "You can guess, I am forty-three years old this year, and it has only been 21 years since I graduated. During the past year, I spent most of my time in Huaxia."

   "..."

  Soros and Rodney Jones glanced at each other, and both felt a sense of absurdity in their hearts. It was the first time they had heard such a conversation that made others guess their net worth since they were born. Looking at the rules of business dealings around the world, there has never been such a rule that allows others to guess their net worth during a conversation.

   Unable to understand what the other party wanted to say, Soros decided to hold back temporarily and see what the other party wanted to say.

   "My net worth, I don't even know how much I have!"

Sure enough, Zhou Changan didn't really mean to let the other party guess, but continued, "Real estates, land, antiques, bonds, stocks, cash, I estimate that the total scale of these is hundreds of billions. Oh yes, change In U.S. dollars, it is about 20 billion U.S. dollars."

"what?"

   Hearing this number, both Soros and Rodney Jones felt incredible. In just 21 years, he earned nearly 20 billion U.S. dollars, an experience that would be considered a legend anywhere in the world. What was even more weird was that neither Soros nor Rodney Jones had heard of Zhou Changan's name.

  Of course, Soros and Rodney Jones are not people who specialize in collecting information like Forbes or Hurun, so it’s not surprising that they don’t know. What surprised both of them most was that this guy had earned the same net worth as Soros in twenty-one years, which shocked them greatly.

   "I mean nothing else by saying that."

Seeing the obvious changes in the faces of the two, Zhou Changan smiled triumphantly, and continued to explain, "I just want to tell you that the reason why I was able to obtain so much wealth is because of a very reliable method. Why? So, now you believe that we have the possibility of cooperation?"

  He said cooperation, not entrustment, which shows that he had made up such an idea before the visit.

   "Cooperation for what?"

  Soros's heart moved, and he couldn't help asking, "In what way should we cooperate?"

   "It's easy!"

Zhou Changan snorted coldly, and replied arrogantly, "I will provide the information, and you will operate. We will share the profits according to a certain ratio. Mr. Soros, I initially estimate that this business can reach trillions or even A scale of tens of trillions is definitely a big deal!"
