1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 438: Some people jump off the building, some people get married

No one was puzzled by Liu Xuenong's sudden disappearance, and no one was even aware of it except his shoeshine father.

Because everyone is deeply involved in the collapse of the US stock market at the moment.

On Wednesday, October 10, the stock market fell heavily and the situation continued to deteriorate. Less than an hour after the New York Stock Exchange opened, the Dow Jones Index had fallen by 23 points, from 31 points to 270 points in an instant!

The U.S. stock market encountered an unprecedented storm.

High-priced stocks suffered particularly heavy losses. Nearly a hundred leading high-priced stocks plummeted. Whether it was General Motors, which had been highly evaluated before, or the dying U.S. Steel, they all fell to a jaw-dropping price.

Among the 100 high-priced stocks shorted by Yelo and others, Adams Express fell by $19, Auburn fell by $27, and Westinghouse fell by $25.

The stock market column of the newspaper that afternoon showed a series of surprising negative numbers in the "Net Change" column: -6.5, -30, -14.375, -7, -2.5, -16.25, -12, and so on.

These are the big-name stocks falling today.

Speculators looked through various newspapers and checked many data, but they could not find a stock that was rising!

The real panic started spreading on the New York Stock Exchange.

That afternoon, the trading hall was overcrowded. People queuing at the window were squeezed out of the hall, and long queues snaked all over the road.

Tomorrow is October 10th, the most famous Black Thursday in the history of the US stock market and the starting point of the stock market crash.

Until this moment, Livermore and others finally relaxed and waited for the moment of collapse to arrive.

Therefore, the affected Germany will restart the war with Italy and Japan.

Open the champagne at halftime?

The Second World War provoked by the two camps is about to break out.

It's far from that moment.

They hold piles of bills in their hands and wait nervously to sell all the stocks in their names immediately.

The selling was so massive that stock tickers, which are supposed to be real-time, were unable to keep up.

Hoover decided to spread the economic crisis around the world.

Ye Luo refused their suggestion to open champagne at halftime and was still studying stock trends and future market conditions in the VIP room of the New York Stock Exchange.

In order to be able to cope with the national crisis, he began to prepare since time travel. He saved the Ye family when the building was about to collapse. He went abroad to study abroad, build interpersonal relationships and a business empire, expel foreigners in the Republic of China, establish a base in Shanghai, and develop to the north. industry.

By shorting U.S. stocks this time, he will receive a terrifying amount of principal. If this money can be successfully invested in industry and commerce, his pace will be more steady and his business empire will be more stable.

Everything is done for those things.

It was an era of blood and tears, war and smoke.

And this is where the day begins.

Starting tomorrow, world history will open a new chapter. The United States, which emerged after World War I, will be plunged into an endless economic crisis. The "four more years of prosperity" claimed by President Hoover during his campaign has been regarded as a ridiculous slogan and reduced to a joke in the streets. laughing stock.

As powerful as the United States, there will be countless homeless people on the streets, and countless entrepreneurs will choose to jump from rooftops and end their lives.

nonexistent.

"1937. There are less than eight years left. I don't have much time." Ye Luo murmured to himself, no one knew how anxious he was.

By then, caught in the middle, the Republic of China, which became one of the main battlefields due to the July 7th Incident, will officially enter a new stage.

Just when Ye Luo was still thinking about how to cash out smoothly in the coming days, take the money out of the United States, and take away a large number of equipment, technology, and talents from here, the door was gently pushed open.

"Mr. Ye, your bodyguard is back." Gwen came over with a smile holding a fruit plate.

She knew that Ye Luo was shorting U.S. stocks, and now that the stock market was like this, all fools knew that Ye Luo was going to make a lot of money. How can such a powerful financial backer not hug his thighs tightly?

So Gwen was very attentive to him.

"Boss, I have something to tell you." Xu Wenqiang came over and glanced at Lin Ruxian, who was lying lazily on the sofa.

"It's okay, just say it." Ye Luo waved his hand. Hua Wen, Gwen and others didn't understand. The other Chinese here are his confidants.

"Liu has taken care of it." Xu Wenqiang said in a low voice, "Mr. Franklin's people will be responsible for the follow-up issues."

"Oh, have we still come this far?" Ye Luo sighed, knowing that this order was most likely issued by Huixin personally. He thought of those impassioned people who were inspired by his dream of fairy stocks when he first came to the United States. Man, I feel a little lonely.

They could have made enough money to leave the United States.

It's a pity that he died because of greed in the end.

Such people are not uncommon in the Republic of China, in the United States, and around the world at this time.

We are at the crossroads of history, and life is actually difficult for the people. If you want to get ahead, you have to take corresponding risks.

But not everyone is as good at predicting the future as he is.

If you give it a try, the bicycle may turn into a motorcycle, and eventually it may turn into a hearse.

"Let them remember to keep their hands and feet clean, and then gradually release the problems of Hongxing United Group step by step. In addition, have you found the person to take over?" Ye Luo asked.

Xu Wenqiang nodded: "Sister Huixin has made arrangements. Many securities companies want to acquire Hongxing, but the price is too high."

"Pick the most expensive ones and sell them directly, and then announce Huixin's resignation today." Ye Luo waved his hand without hesitation.

"Yes, I'll go over and tell you right away." Xu Wenqiang nodded, and he was also shocked.

At first, the second young master brought a group of them to the United States to hunt for gold. When the penny stocks started to gain momentum, countless people fell into it and were unable to extricate themselves.

Even he and his girlfriend Situ Feifei went in to play for a while, and finally left reluctantly after the second young master gave some advice.

Not long after leaving Amax, Situ Feifei aimed at the New York Stock Exchange, took their savings and the old man's money, and invested all of it in U.S. stocks.

If it weren't for the Second Young Master as a benchmark, they would have lost all their money just from these few fluctuations.

Fortunately, okay, the second young master asked Situ Feifei repeatedly a while ago, forcing Situ Feifei to jump out of the stock market.

Situ Feifei, who had always been quite sensible, still pouted, feeling a little unhappy. Now that he thought about it, he was really scared.

"What about you, has the money come out?" Ye Luo asked casually.

The person next to him was still trading in stocks. Huo Ting'en had no idea about this and spent all day fighting with Marine Corps officers at Franklin's side.

"Come out, thank you Second Young Master for saving your life." Xu Wenqiang liked Situ Feifei very much, and the old man also valued his future son-in-law. However, if all this money was lost, things between him and Situ Feifei would probably be ruined.

"Haha, let me congratulate you first. Do you want to hold a wedding before returning to China?" Ye Luo asked with a smile.

Xu Wenqiang smiled and said: "The old man wants to go back to the Republic of China to run it, and I have the same idea."

"Very good, very good." Ye Luo nodded. The people around him became a couple again after Chen Zhen, which made him very happy.

After all, Feng Chengcheng is not a good match for Xu Wenqiang.

If the two of them were forced to come together, it would probably be similar to the ending of the TV series.
