Wolf of Xiangjiang

Thursday, March 1th.

Not long after Lin Zhengjie arrived at work in the morning, Li Rongsen from Hengjin Investment Development called to report a piece of news.

"Boss, last night London gold and New York gold suddenly plummeted by 10%, and then quickly rose, and finally closed down 6%. The closing price of London gold was US$750 per ounce. Some of our contracts were liquidated before we could increase the margin, and the loss was about US$5000 million."

"Got it. Keep buying and double the amount. Then, during the night session, tell the people who trade gold to be alert and don't forget to increase the margin if something goes wrong."

"clear"

Both of them spoke in a calm tone, but everyone understood each other tacitly.

A 10% plunge for no apparent reason was clearly an abnormal move, but in the end, the other party did not dare to drop too much, which clearly showed that they lacked confidence.

Lin Zhengjie remembered that this situation also happened in the silver futures in the mainland in his previous life. European and American speculators took advantage of the time difference and suddenly shorted the market when it was originally rising, causing many mainland investors to suffer a hidden loss. The key is that when those retail investors saw this situation, even if they did not blow up their positions, they handed over their chips, and their inner fear made them miss the market.

On the other hand, although Lin Zhengjie suspected that European and American speculators deliberately caused a sharp drop in gold prices so that Hong Kong investors would suffer heavy losses, he did not know that this loss was just a drop in the bucket for him. The lower the price, the more he wanted to buy contracts.

As for the 5000 million U.S. dollars that was liquidated, it was not a loss at all, because the operation had not yet ended, so it was naturally not a loss.

Regarding the gold futures action, he is optimistic that it will reach $1000 per ounce in the short term. After all, once the economic situation of Western countries is announced, it is bound to be pessimistic, which will lead to a rise in gold prices. This year, Lin Zhengjie is optimistic that it can rise to $1200 at the highest, and fall slightly to $1100 per ounce at the end of the year.

By 2010, there will be a slight adjustment at most, but the price will reach US$1400 per ounce throughout the year.

In the market from 2011 to 2013, the price was often above 1500 USD, which was a good time to sell. Although it could rise to 1700 to 1800 USD, it was only suitable for short selling at that time, not for cashing out at the end, as it would be too late.

So in recent years, if there is gold futures to be done, people will naturally do it. If they don’t make hundreds of millions of dollars in profit a year, wouldn’t it be a waste of the market?

The loss of 5000 million US dollars this time only accounted for half of the funds, and the other half was saved by timely replenishment of margin. I believe Li Rongsen will learn from the lesson and be careful in the night market in the future.

Here.

Li Rongsen worked overtime himself at night. Standing in the trading hall of Hengjin Investment, more than a dozen traders were being cautious. After all, they accidentally caused the company to lose 5000 million US dollars yesterday.

Of course, we can’t blame the traders entirely, after all, the enemy came prepared.

Li Rongsen shouted at this time: "We must rush to buy as soon as the market opens, and we must be quick and do not hesitate. Yesterday's loss is nothing. As long as we are determined to be bullish, even if Western speculators push the price down to below 700 or 600, we must be bold to bet against them."

"clear"

"clear"

Li Rongsen has followed Lin Zhengjie for so many years, so naturally he has complete faith in his boss's financial methods.

What's more, in the words of the boss, as long as the economic data released by Europe and the United States continue to deteriorate and the banking industry in developed economies is fragile, gold will definitely become a safe-haven tool, leading to a sharp rise.

"George (Soros), there is a big purchase of shares in Hong Kong!" The subordinates quickly ran to Soros' office to report a piece of news.

Soros was surprised. After all, yesterday's situation didn't scare him. Could it be that he was sure that gold would continue to rise?
Of course, at this time, they can no longer do the same as yesterday. After all, yesterday's market conditions almost consumed most of the strength of Wall Street and the City of London.

If you want to suppress the decline of gold prices further, you might as well unplug the network cable and let everyone stop playing!

"We must also seize the opportunity to grab shares, at least when gold is below $800, and don't let our opponents grab too many shares."

The gold market is so huge, and they are just the main big customers. For example, yesterday's gold price plummeted, and the funds that were liquidated were at least tens of billions of US dollars.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!"

In fact, all Western speculators have the same idea, that is, to grab chips today. At least below $800 per ounce, chips must be grabbed.

In a short time, yesterday's losses were quickly recovered and gold started to rise sharply again.

As for those who lost their margin and cashed out out of fear, they naturally suffered heavy losses.

Afterwards, Soros looked hesitant and said to himself:
"Is it really that magical? Will the price of gold skyrocket?"

"I don't believe that the U.S. government doesn't want gold to rise."

When the US dollar strengthens, gold will fall; when the US dollar weakens, gold will become a safe-haven tool.

If everyone invests in gold, it actually means that they are not optimistic about the US economy and the US dollar.

Two days later, Lin Zhengjie took a private plane to Sydney for vacation.

Zhao Yazhi brought his two sons, Lin Wenji and Lin Wenrong, to the airport to pick him up. The family of four then got into a nanny car and drove towards the villa.

Zhao Yazhi actually has three sons, and the other one is born to her ex-husband. Lin Zhengjie doesn't like him, but he doesn't treat him badly. He also gave him 5000 million in assets when they got married. The key is that this son also lives in Australia and has a good relationship with his two younger brothers. They still keep in touch in life.

As for the two sons of Zhao Yazhi and Lin Zhengjie, the elder one, Lin Wenqi, is already 25 years old, and the younger one is already 22 years old. Both have graduated and joined Zhao Yazhi's private investment company.

At the end of last year, Zhao Yazhi's private investment company received a donation of HK$20 billion from Lin Zhengjie, and its cash flow was much more sufficient.

In the nanny car, Zhao Yazhi said happily: "The weather has been good recently, and the temperature is also suitable. It's perfect for a vacation!"

At the age of fifty-six, she still looks very young, almost the same as when she was filming the Legend of White Snake in her previous life. This is when she was at her most beautiful, less immature and more dignified and elegant.

Zhao Yazhi has always lived in Hong Kong, but after her two children went to Australia for high school, she often flew back and forth; after they went to university, she mainly lived in Hong Kong.

"Well, I'll stay for three days and two nights, and I'll have the two children with me."

"I know. They also want to listen to your guidance and have been looking forward to your coming to Sydney."

In her dignified and majestic state, there is suddenly a bit of playfulness, it is as if she is jumping between White Snake and Hu Meiniang.

When he arrived at the villa in Sydney, Lin Zhengjie didn't need to rest, after all, he was on a private jet.

Everyone came to the lawn of the villa and sat together, with the two sons ready to go.

Lin Zhengjie sat on a chair, with Zhao Yazhi next to him. He first asked, "Wenji, when are you planning to get married?"

Lin Wenji sat down and said formally, "Just in the next few years, when my relationship with my girlfriend gets better, we'll get married."

Lin Zhengjie didn't hesitate and said, "Just put it on the agenda."

"Yes"

Zhao Yazhi immediately added: "Marriage is a very important thing, especially for our big family."

"Yes, Mommy."

The second oldest was laughing on the side. He heard from his brothers that their father would not ask about his life before he turned 25, but would ask about it after that, so he still had three years of freedom. His actions could not be hidden from Lin Zhengjie and Zhao Yazhi, who simply ignored him.

"What is Guanghong doing recently?"

Zhao Yazhi did not answer. She had complicated feelings towards this son. On the one hand, he was her mother, and on the other hand, he did not belong to the Lin family, so she could not help but look down on him.

Of course, this stepfather is very rich, so there won’t be any enmity between them.

Lin Wenji said: "He runs a catering business in Australia and lives a good life. We usually keep in touch and he is filial to his mother."

A rich stepfather and a rich mother, as long as he is not a fool, he will not be ignorant. Moreover, when he was a child, he was not abused. It can only be said that the emotional investment was small, but the material was not lacking.

Click till.

Then Lin Zhengjie got down to business: "How much assets do your investment companies have at the moment? Tell me about their distribution?"

As the eldest son of this family, Lin Wenji joined a private investment company after graduation and immediately reported: "We currently hold 0.1% of the shares of four US stocks - Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, and Google, with a market value of approximately US$3.4 million. We also hold shares of iron ore companies such as Rio Tinto and FMG in Australia, with a value of US$2.8 million. Therefore, the asset value of stocks is approximately US$6.2 million, or about HK$50 billion. In addition, the properties we hold are mainly distributed in the mainland, Hong Kong, Australia, and New Zealand, with an estimated value of HK$20 billion. There is also a cash flow of HK$68 billion in the account, including the HK$20 billion you injected last year."

Many of the properties are owner-occupied, with three villas in Australia alone.

Zhao Yazhi immediately added: "I am also rich in jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, red wine, and luxury goods!"

After saying that, she did not forget to hold Lin Zhengjie's arm and act coquettishly.

The two sons didn’t dare to look at it, and they must be thinking in their hearts – they are an old couple, what’s the big deal!
Lin Zhengjie patted Zhao Yazhi's hand to comfort him, then said, "Last year I arranged for you to buy the bottom of the stock market. Have you completed it now?"

"It can be completed this month, as has just been taken into account."

Lin Zhengjie nodded and made the following arrangements: "You have been training in the business world for three years. The next 68 billion yuan will be used to buy up industrial assets, but the focus will be on New Zealand and Australia. I am more optimistic about industries such as land, vineyards, and real estate. Australia and New Zealand are both agricultural and animal husbandry powers with great prospects, especially vineyards, which can be developed as a priority. You can develop your own red wine brand and sell it to the mainland or Europe and the United States, or you can buy land and rent it to grape growers. In short, you can continue to invest in this area. In terms of real estate, Australian properties are of course very good."

To sum up, it is about investing in land and property. If you have the energy to develop a vineyard yourself, that would be great. If not, you can rent it to someone who grows grapes.

Moreover, it's not just Australia, you can also invest in New Zealand.

Currently, Lin Wenji and Lin Wenrong are both Australian citizens, so investing is quite convenient for them.

"I understand. Thank you for your guidance, father!"

"I understand, too. Thank you for your guidance, father."

The two brothers were immediately very happy. After all, since they were young, they knew that the person who was best at making money in the world must be their father.

Even their mother kept praising their father, saying that he only needed to use his brain to make money and the money would come to their family.

As for the land, vineyards and properties in Australia and New Zealand, they are very fond of them. Moreover, the world is currently facing a financial crisis, so all assets are suitable for bargain hunting.

"Take it slow and steady. These two years are opportunities. But you must remember that if you want to take out a loan, never exceed 20%. This is an iron rule for you."

"It's the father"

Neither of the two brothers dared to object at all and regarded it as an imperial decree.

In their opinion, the main reason for their father's conservatism is that he thinks they are young. However, Zhao Yazhi never used loans for investment before and rarely used them.

In fact, as long as they hold on to 0.1% of the shares of Microsoft, Amazon, Apple, and Google, they will have a fortune of 80 billion US dollars in the future.

There are also those iron ore shares that will have great appreciation and dividends in the future.

As for investing in land, vineyards and properties, that is preparation for collecting rent for a long time and becoming a landlord.

At night, the family of four finished the barbecue party, and Lin Zhengjie, slightly tipsy, pulled Zhao Yazhi and prepared to go upstairs.

This villa has three floors, so the third floor is naturally the area of ​​​​Lin Zhengjie and Zhao Yazhi, while Lin Wenji and Lin Wenrong live directly on the first floor. Everyone is an adult and understands what is going to happen tonight.

They also knew that their father seemed to be in extremely strong health. They had heard that their father and mother could struggle for more than an hour.

They did not inherit this trait, but they are still much better than ordinary people and can be considered real men.

After Lin Zhengjie finished washing up, he started playing with the computer here. He likes to surf the Internet and read local news, which helps him understand the local situation.

After a long while, Zhao Yazhi walked in, which immediately filled Lin Zhengjie with surprise.

It’s actually ancient costume!
"How is it? I haven't worn it for a long time. Do you feel fresh?"

"good"

The hairstyle was not done well, it was just a little bit off, but Zhao Yazhi also took care of it, and she is undoubtedly a beauty in ancient costume.

Lin Zhengjie simply lay on the bed and let Zhao Yazhi dance. This was the happiness of an emperor.

After a while, Lin Zhengjie was excited enough, so he hugged Zhao Yazhi in his arms and started playing with the snake.

"It's actually a bellyband. Hey, shorts."

Good guy, he does the whole act.

I picked up Zhao Yazhi's bellyband, put it to my nose and sniffed it. A faint fragrance came out. After all, I had danced for so long just now.

"Hubby, thank you for sticking with me for 30 years. Hmm."

Zhao Yazhi couldn't help but burst out loud.

"Don't think too much. It will be the same in ten years."

"We are all old, how dare I be with you~"

"It's tender, really tender."

In fact, she may only look young on the screen, and wrinkles are definitely visible when the camera zooms in, but in this life, there is no big problem before the age of 65. Even at the age of , there are plenty of young men who want to chat up mature women walking on the street.

It's like a young man falling in love with a forty-year-old woman.

Running fingers over Zhao Yazhi's back, no wrinkles could be found. One can imagine how attractive she was in her peak appearance when she played the role of White Snake in 1992 in her previous life.

The strong feeling of being pushed back made Zhao Yazhi feel relaxed and happy. (End of this chapter)
