Rebirth 1980: Marrying my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Chapter 593 Sniper Li Yi!

Suburbs of the city. Castle manor!

It's still the same place as before, still the same ghost guys!
But this time there were more people coming, more than ten people.

And the mood was exactly the same as at the last party. At this time, everyone's faces were very ugly, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Li Yi's action of smashing the market has initially achieved results. At this time, the pressure has been put on those who hold large amounts of gold and gold financial products.

As for the entire Hong Kong Island, the British group holds the most gold at this time!
In order to trap the Li family, they invested more than [-] billion Hong Kong dollars. In addition, Li Yi deliberately set up a trap, and most of the gold financial products sold by Xingchen Company fell into their hands.

In addition, there are nearly ten tons of physical gold.

Except for a small amount that has been sold by the Lin family, the rest are all in their hands.

Now that gold prices have fluctuated violently, they are the people who are most worried.

Faced with this situation, they have only two choices.

The first is to flee with these retail investors and cut their losses.

The second is to invest funds to protect the market and keep gold prices at a relatively stable level.

Ever since, the senior members of the British-owned group gathered together again to discuss countermeasures!
Among these people, two people are undoubtedly the most special, namely Lord Sassoon and Smith.

One of them is the spokesperson and leader of the British-funded group in Hong Kong Island, and the other is the chief steward and chief of staff of the British-funded group.

When the British-owned group takes action, Smith often provides suggestions, formulates plans and is responsible for its implementation, while Jazz is responsible for making the final decision.

In recent years, with the tacit cooperation of these two people, the entire British-funded group has been killing everyone in Hong Kong Island and the entire Southeast Asia region. Regardless of whether it is a local consortium or local government, they can only be dealt with.

It was also under their leadership that the British-funded groups in Hong Kong had great influence in the entire East Asian financial circle, directly and indirectly controlling hundreds of large companies and enterprises.

But what they never expected was that they would suffer a loss on their private land in Hong Kong Island. Can they bear this?

"Mr. Sir, the situation is very unfavorable to us now. You have to make an idea, otherwise our partners will have objections!" Smith said in a deep voice.

In order to strangle the Li family this time, British-owned groups invested a total of more than 130 billion Hong Kong dollars in gold projects.

However, not all of this money is their own. A large part of it is jointly raised by everyone in the small circle within the British-owned group. This is also a common method they usually use when making large-scale investments.

Once there is any large-scale and reliable project, several people in charge of the British-owned group will take the lead and recruit funds internally. After success, they will participate in dividends according to the proportion of investment.

In the past few decades, they have used this method to wipe out Chinese-owned enterprises and Chinese capital in Hong Kong Island, and they have almost always been unfavorable.

It is precisely because of this that many Chinese families and bosses know that they will be looked down upon if they cooperate with these people, but they are still willing to be treated like dogs, because following these people really means getting meat.

Even if the meat they think is just leftover soup, they don't care, after all, the money they get is real.

This time is no exception. Of the more than 130 billion Hong Kong dollars, 80 billion were raised by families and companies affiliated with British-owned groups. Now that the price of gold is fluctuating violently, some people can't sit still.

The knight on the throne also frowned, but his expression was calm.

He gently shook the red wine glass in his hand, and then said: "Don't worry, the sky won't fall!"

"Sir, after all, we have invested more than 100 billion in this project. If we really suffer a large loss, we have no way to explain it to the people below!" Smith said.

"Hmph, why do we have to explain to them? They participated in this investment voluntarily. Not to mention that the possibility of the gold price falling is very slim. Even if there is a real loss, it is a normal risk!"

Then Jazz said again: "If anyone has any objections, just ask him to withdraw. We don't need such unsteady elements!"

At this time, another old white man next to him also echoed: "Mr. Jazz is right, investment will have risks. There is no business that can make a profit without losing money. A small fluctuation makes them so nervous. It's really... outrageous!"

"Yes, it's outrageous. It's just a normal fluctuation. What's there to be afraid of?" "Yes, how can the price of gold fall so easily?"

Listening to these people echoing Sir's words, Smith's heart became even heavier.

He has a background in finance, and he vaguely sensed that something was wrong. Judging from the current situation, this was probably a trap set up by the young man from Xingchen Company.

Based on his understanding of that young man, the opponent is a hungry wolf. Either he doesn't take action, but once he does, he will definitely draw some blood from his opponent.

Thinking of this, he said directly: "Sir, according to the information we have, this matter is probably related to Li from Xingchen Company!"

"Oh, tell me!" Jazz said.

"A few days ago, Xingchen Company took advantage of the sharp rise in gold prices to quietly sell off its gold financial products. According to our estimates, they have sold at least 60% of their gold financial products, and may even liquidate their positions. .”

Then Smith continued: "In addition, this incident happened suddenly, and the Li family member surprisingly publicly stated that he was not optimistic about the future of gold, so I think this was a trap set by them to attract us to invest heavily. Start smashing the plates!”

Hearing this, every one of the ghost guys present broke out in a cold sweat.

If Smith's guess is correct, once the gold price plummets, the impact on Xingchen Company will be minimal, and we will probably be the only ones who lose.

From this perspective, the young man did have a reason to smash the market.

However, at this moment, Jazz said calmly: "You don't have to doubt, this is indeed their plan!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned, and everyone looked at Jazz with doubtful eyes.

At this time, Jazz still said calmly: "Not only do I know this is a trap, but I also know that the young man is planning to short gold!"

"Short gold? So what should we do, or invest money to protect the market?"

"Don't worry, that young man's battlefield is not on Hong Kong Island!" Jazz said again.

"Not in Hong Kong Island?"

"Yes, they went to New York two days ago and appeared in the New York International Gold Futures Market. And there was a large-scale selling of gold futures contracts in New York that day. After investigation, it was that young man who was shorting gold!" Jazz said.

Smith's eyes suddenly flashed and he said in a deep voice: "Sir, shorting gold usually involves using financial leverage. Can we unite with our allies over at the Thieving Eagle to attack that young man!"

A cold smile appeared on the corner of Sir's mouth, and then he said in a deep voice: "I have contacted old William, and he is willing to cooperate with us to snipe the young man with all his strength."

"Although Sharp is unwilling to sell out its customers, we have no way of knowing exactly how much money they invested and how many times they used leverage. However, we still have a rough estimate based on the trading volume of gold in New York yesterday. So next, William and the others It will gradually increase the price of gold until the other party liquidates its position!"

Smith immediately said happily: "If old William takes action, that young man will probably fall into a big mess!"

Compared to investment veterans like the legendary William, that young man was far from the old William's opponent in terms of experience and capital.

What's more, this time we are fighting on old William's home court, and no one can save the young man!

"Sir, what should we do now? Do you want to support old William?"

"Yes, I am going to raise 10 billion U.S. dollars and let Old William operate it. With the funds they have, it is enough to raise the price of gold by 80 U.S. dollars. As long as the other party's investment does not exceed 20 billion U.S. dollars, it will be enough to blow it up." Got it!"

Then Jazz continued: "In addition, we have to allocate some funds to maintain the basic market of Hong Kong Island. We can't let them really destroy the market!"

As soon as Jazz finished speaking, someone couldn't wait to express his position: "I agree with Mr. Jazz's idea. We, HSBC Bank, are willing to invest 1 million US dollars!"

"We at Jardine Matheson also agree and we are willing to pay US$1 million!"

"We would too"

However, just when these people were raising funds and preparing to sell, Xingchen Company made new moves.
