Chapter 705 I’m waiting for the market to open, you’re waiting to die

There are still nearly 5 hours until the U.S. stock market opens.

Lu Fei patiently waited for the Wall Street short sellers led by Henry Paulson to arrive in Hong Kong. At this moment, Xu Xin brought good news.

In just half a day, Li Huanggua figured it out.

Agree to give up 58% of the shares of Xiangjiang Telecom, including 38% of the stocks pledged in financial institutions.

"Can pledged stocks also be transferred?"

Lu Fei raised his eyebrows.

"In principle, it is not allowed, but as long as the pledgor and the pledgee agree to negotiate, it can also be transferred, but a third-party guarantee is required. It must have been Li Huanggua's guarantee for his son again."

Xu Xin smiled and said: "No matter what, your goal has been achieved. 58% is quite a lot. As long as you acquire about 7% or 8% of the shares in the market, you can achieve absolute control."

“Leave this part to the joint venture company.”

Lu Fei plans to take a long-term view. When he returns to the mainland, he will sit down with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the three major operators to discuss. By then, Xiangtong Telecom's market share, plus China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, will be able to control at least 70% of the users in Hong Kong. .

Fixed network, broadband, phone bills, as well as future streaming media, set-top boxes, etc., can be accessed by Caifubao. Caifubao can also access the offline retail, commerce, shipping, freighter and other businesses of the Shuangli, Huo and Zheng families in Xiangjiang. If it can be accessed, even if it cannot cooperate with Octopus in the future, electronic payment can still enter the daily life scene in Hong Kong.

"This part of Xiangjiang Telecom has been discounted, and the rest will be repaid slowly with dividends in the form of debt as agreed in the morning. Of course, there is another plan."

"what?"

"Everything else remains unchanged. I will take out 3.5 million Hong Kong dollars in cash and a Repulse Bay mansion worth 1.5 million, for a total of 5 million to pay off the debt."

"Oh, I would rather he give me an extra 5 million Hong Kong dollars in shares of Xiangjiang Telecom."

"You have a pretty good idea. To be honest, it's surprising that Li Huanggua agreed so simply to give up Xiangjiang Telecom. We have to be content." Xu Xin said with a smile, "No, you are not looking for a villa in Xiangjiang. ? It’s just ready-made.”

"I'd better find it myself. It's rumored that the Li family believes in Feng Shui. I'm afraid that the house given to me by Zhuang Yueming House may have some shady reputation." Lu Fei raised his hand tabooly.

"You actually still believe this?"

Xu Xin was surprised.

"It's better to believe what it has than to believe it doesn't."

Lu Fei said: "Besides, if he gives it to me, why don't I live there? It's not that I can't afford it, I still have to choose something that I like."

"You really should be careful and find a way to spend the money from this short squeeze." Xu Xin took out a stack of documents from her bag.

The above are all plans.

One is real estate investment, one is angel investment, such as Uber and DJI, and the other is financial investment.

After withdrawing from gold derivatives, some are supporting Dubai as the United Arab Emirates, some are long the Hang Seng Index, and some are short the Eurozone including Greece.

The other piece is undoubtedly high-precision technology investment focusing on mobile smart terminals, semiconductors, and new materials.

"Elpida's liabilities have exceeded 850 billion yen. If the Neon government does not continue to inject capital or the banks do not provide additional loans, it will inevitably end up like Neon Airlines and declare bankruptcy and liquidation. By then, Yangtze River Storage may be able to buy Let’s take advantage of RAM’s patented technology and fabs.”

"Logic is cooperating with Huawei and negotiating acquisitions with British Integrated Optoelectronics. The most valuable ones are optical fiber technology and submarine optical cables."

"........."

"It is rumored that Apple intends to fully acquire ARM and monopolize the ARM architecture. Use this to deal with your logic."

Xu Xin spoke out one by one with serious reminders.

"Did you find a quote?"

Lu Fei smacked his lips. ARM architecture is a tricky thing. Currently, ARM-based processors account for 90% of smartphones and 35% of digital TVs and set-top boxes...

For the time being, no effective replacement has been found.

Before you fully pay attention to it, find a way to get away!

"I will ask people to continue to inquire, and I will tell you if I have any news." When Xu Xin got the "Dassault Company" plan, she paused, "I understand these, but I don't understand this. Don't you have a clear idea? If you already lead International, why should you invest in it?”

“This is different from Mentor International.”

Lu Fei bluntly said that EDA is mainly for chip design, and Dassault's CATIA is specially used to design large machinery such as cars, airplanes, ships, and rocket engines.

"Are you buying this for yourself or for the country..."

"Ahem, sister Xin, don't forget, I also invested in BYD and Xinghuan."

"That aerospace and rocket company? I thought it was just like a DJI drone, a big toy you invested in."

"How can it be a toy!"

Lu Fei cleared his throat. With the endorsement of "Star Ring", he could cleverly create a name, join Dassault, establish cooperation with Mentor International, and hide the purpose of secretly developing China's own CATIA.

"A Fei, are you serious?"

Xu Xin's face was full of astonishment.

"In the future, drones and civilian rockets have great prospects. Who knows, I will have to rely on the 'Star Ring' to put satellites into orbit, support logical mobile phone calls, and even connect to the Internet. From now on, I will never have to use it again." A satellite phone to make calls.”

Lu Fei said: "Think about it, are we all far ahead!"

"How much will this cost? 30 billion?"

"Three billion is not enough, 30 billion is about the same. It is estimated that 300 billion is enough to squander for ten or eight years. We have to do it step by step."

"You really are. If you really have money and no place to spend it, you might as well buy an NBA team and a football team. The level of science and technology must be world-class, and football cannot be left behind."

"Sister Xin, if you believe in the national football team, you might as well believe that my rocket can reach the sky." Lu Fei touched his nose.

"........."

Xu Xin was helpless, "Goldman Sachs should be here soon."

"almost."

Lu Fei looked up at the sky.

"Woooooo."

At Xiangjiang International Airport, planes taxi on the runway.

After a while, David Solomon took the Japanese vice president, followed Henry Paulson, walked down the boarding stairs, and let out a long breath.

If you have the choice, you won’t have to travel thousands of miles to visit.

Shabby!It's so shabby!

But when I think that it is not my own money that I am losing, but the money of my big clients, I have to come even if I don’t want to, and I have to kneel even if I don’t want to.

Holding the same idea as him, there are also Wall Street giants such as Bear Stearns and Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Just like the Volkswagen Stock case, the official mediator came to mediate. This time, they all relied on Henry Paulson.

I couldn't care less about the jet lag, I had to race against time.

Hurry up and close your positions before the U.S. stock market opens!

Otherwise, Penguin's stock price would not be $400.

It really increased to 1000 US dollars, and each of them had to answer for their reputation, position, or even their lives.

It might also involve the whole family...

Henry Paulson and others came non-stop to the agreed meeting place, and Xu Xin stood outside the door of the reception room.

The senior executives were politely blocked from the door, and only three members of the Goldman Sachs department, Henry Paulson, David Solomon, and the Japanese vice president, were allowed to go in first. The rest were all waiting in line in the lounge.

Waiting is undoubtedly a kind of suffering.

They originally wanted to unite to resist Mr. Lu's extreme pressure, but now in this zero-sum game, the atmosphere has become tense and solemn.

A pair of eyes looked at the closed door, and suddenly a small voice came from the reception room with general soundproofing effect:

"Lu Feisang! Red bean paste Smi Masai!"

"If saying sorry is useful, why do you need the police?"

"I deserve to die, wuwuwu~"

"Crying, crying also takes time!"

Senior executives such as Bear Stearns and Morgan Stanley swallowed their saliva and thought of the days when the subprime mortgage crisis was dominated by Mr. Lu.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the room was silent.

"Saury!"

"I can't persuade retail investors, because they are not helping me, but hating you. I can't stop retail investors and funds from following the trend, because they are not helping me at all, but making profits!"

Lu Fei shrugged.

"These bastards are just a bunch of Shet!"

David Solomon cursed: "These people are sitting at home, speculating in stocks with federal relief checks, and saying that they get the share they deserve is simply unreasonable."

"That's your problem!"

"Did I ask you to do short selling? Did they ask you to do short selling? When you treat Penguin as a casino, don't complain about retail investors treating it as a casino, let alone not being able to afford it!"

Lu Fei smiled coldly.

Seeing that David Solomon was at a disadvantage, Henry Paulson tried to smooth things over. Putting aside the facts, you were not wrong at all?
"The fact is that the moment I said 'don't say it unpredictably' and you continued to short Penguin, the drama had already begun, and the ending was not decided by me, it might be you." Lu Fei The corners of his mouth raised, "Do you still want to short Penguin?"

"Lu, I told you that I didn't know anything about shorting Penguin. I've been busy with John about the Greek debt and the European euro. It was this little neon who hid it from us and did whatever he wanted!" David Solomon handed a letter to the Japanese vice president. With a look in his eyes, the latter immediately got off his seat and kept saying "Red Bean Nice and Marseille".

Seeing him trembling, Lu Fei curled his lips and made it clear that he was the scapegoat, "Get out of here!"

The Japanese vice president jumped out of his wits and rolled out in dejection.

Bear Stearns, Morgan Stanley and other institutions immediately gathered around him to get useful information from him, especially the price.

Hedge funds shorting Penguin lost a total of US$1 billion in January, which was just a floating loss on their books.

If Lu Feishi opens his mouth, the fish will die and the net will be broken.

For example, they have joined forces with Wall Street giants such as Goldman Sachs and Bear Stearns to collectively put pressure on online brokerage platforms that support retail transactions, asking brokers to restrict transactions, which is to "pull the Internet cable."

He even had some evil thoughts, Nai group special!

If you can't solve the trouble, just solve the troublemaker!
There were discussions outside the house and confrontations inside the house.

"Lu, this number makes it difficult for us to handle."

David Solomon gritted his teeth.

"Is it difficult to do it? Then why don't we just stop doing it?"

Lu Fei glanced at the table and had the urge to overturn it.

"Currently Goldman Sachs has a lot of business and spreads its funds..."

"You wouldn't say Goldman Sachs has no money, would you? No way!"

Seeing the bickering between Lu Fei and David Solomon, Henry Paulson was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma. After all, he was from Goldman Sachs, but his money was in the Trisolaris Fund and he was also long Penguin.

The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh!

Just seeing the conversation between the two of them, that's probably what it meant.

"There is money, there is money, we are harvesting Europe, the European debt did not explode, it doesn't happen now, it did, and there is money when it explodes."

"I'll give you one more minute to continue with the harvest."

"Being short European debt, Lu, aren't you doing it too!"

"How long will it take?"

"One year."

"The hell do I have to wait for you for a year?"

"If you're lucky, three or four months will do."

"Didn't miss it?"

"Don't fight with your hands, fight with your brain, without bleeding."

David Solomon took a breath and continued to communicate with John Wallendren and others in the United States, and the deal was initially reached.

However, I still felt a little pain. I glanced at Henry Paulson and saw that he understood: "Lu, shorting Penguin is wrong for Goldman Sachs, but the price is too high. Can you..."

"As much as you say."

Lu Fei changed the topic: "But I can give Goldman Sachs two private jobs. If you can match them and complete the transaction, the handling fee after the transaction is completed can be said to be quite generous."

"What deal?"

David Solomon and Henry Paulson look at each other.

"When the time comes, I will tell you."

After receiving Lu Fei's promise, the three of them stood up and walked out of the reception room. They were in a happy mood, which confused Bear Stearns and other senior executives. Wasn't there a huge quarrel just now?

Why are you kissing like you are wearing a pair of pants now?
When I think of the record of "Goldman Sachs cheating on his teammates," is there a possibility?Penguin's short selling this time is a trap set up by Goldman Sachs and Lu Fei, just to deceive!Come for a sneak attack!

But this idea was quickly dismissed.

After all, Goldman Sachs' position is 4.4%.

Lu Fei took out the share transfer agreement and the board of directors' resolution agreeing to the shareholder transfer, which were already prepared.

The conditions and prices are the same as those of Goldman Sachs, and no one is allowed to negotiate. Bear Stearns, Bank of America Merrill Lynch and other giants have no room for negotiation.

Seeing that Goldman Sachs signed the contract without hesitation, Bear Stearns and other executives became suspicious and decided to haggle the price no matter what.

"Lu, I need to remind you that even if you successfully swindle the institution, the final consequences may not be something you can bear." Morgan Stanley's representative threatened gloomily.

"The worst case scenario is that I will be the 'richest man in Asia'. I don't want to be the 'richest man in the world' anyway. What about you, my friend?"

Lu Fei smiled and said, "Where were you at that time?"

I, I'm in hell...

Hell is empty, Lu Fei is in the world!
The hungry wolves of Wall Street are staring at the Chinese jade-faced flying dragon.

The two sides were in a stalemate, but Goldman Sachs, who had completed the contract, immediately used remote control to cooperate with Lu Fei, exerting invisible pressure.

"Lu, I just spoke a little too loudly. I think we can talk about it again. At this price, we really..."

"If I give you a lower price, wouldn't Goldman Sachs suffer a loss? Don't forget, I am a shareholder of Goldman Sachs. Can I do this? If you can't accept it, you can leave. You can stay or go as you wish."

Lu Fei asked Xu Xin to order a Pizza Hut for a midnight snack.

Bear Stearns and other representatives could not sit still and contacted the headquarters one after another. He could not make the decision on such a big matter.

One more person means more responsibility.

"Lu, it seems you have waited a long time."

Henry Paulson sat across from him.

"It's not them I'm waiting for."

Lu Fei glanced at his watch.

Henry Paulson joked: "Waiting for takeout?"

“I’m waiting for the opening, what are they waiting for?”

Lu Fei saw that his minute hand reached the "12" position, corresponding to 9 o'clock in the morning in the United States, and the bidding began.

Penguin's stock price broke through and rose rapidly.

Quickly break through 30%, 40%, 60%...

"70%!"

Lu Fei said lightly, "Will you surrender?"

Bear Stearns and other representatives watched the live broadcast of the stock price trend and thought of the scene of breaking through 1000 US dollars. They immediately thought of themselves as homeless on the street or as a trapeze artist, with pale faces.

The phone kept ringing, and the 30-minute bidding period——

Torturous and long!
After a while, the takeaways arrived, but the results were not there yet.

Penguin’s stock price soared to $700!

Lu Fei put on his gloves, cut the pizza into pieces and put them on the plate. "Meituan, Sogou, and Yangtze River Storage all have financing plans this year. Are you interested in paying attention?"

"Um!!!"

David Solomon was holding fire in his heart, but he put it behind him all of a sudden. Anger is anger, business is business!

Needless to say, Yangtze River Storage!
Meituan is the third largest e-commerce company in China after Feigou and Ali Baba. Even in the world, it lags behind eBay and Amazon at best, and its scale exceeds most platforms in the world.

The potential for money is limitless.

And Sogou is also a hot topic.

China's second search engine, first input method, third browser after Penguin and Baidu, and third security manager after Penguin and 360...

Once listed, the profits will be huge!

"Come on, sit down and eat pizza."

Lu Fei's meaning is very obvious, do you want to surrender?
With such a carrot and stick approach, Bear Stearns and others' will to resist immediately collapsed and they concluded deals one after another.

"By the way, I have another request."

Lu Fei looked left, right, and stretched out a finger.

Henry Paulson and David Solomon thought they were going to raise the price, but they never expected that the request turned out to be——

Penguin short selling must be given an explanation!
Angry retail investors must be given an explanation!
How to explain?

When a gun goes off, someone dies, and when someone dies, someone cries.

Short-selling institutions such as Citron and Melburn will have to die and cry. Don't think that shorting Penguin will be fine.

Anyone who offends me, Mr. Lu, will be punished no matter how far away!

Thanks to Mr. Sissi for the 1200 starting coins; to 66666pp for the 500 starting coins.
