The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 686 Inadvertently caused a catastrophe

   "Seeking skin from a tiger?"

Wolfgang Porsche still looked like an old god, but Wedekin chuckled and retorted disdainfully, "You seem to be wrong, I think making a deal with you is the real way to seek skin from a tiger. Well, since the deal It has been achieved, so we don’t need to continue talking nonsense, the Porsche Group has its own style and principles in doing things, so I won’t bother you.”

  Soros smiled and said nothing more.

  There may be many people in this world who can design such a large-scale trap. There are not many people who hint that they can persuade Porsche management to cooperate with it, and they can be counted on two hands. Thinking about which big boss appeared in Frankfurt recently, Soros already had eighty-nine points of confidence in his heart, and the black hand behind the whole thing was Zhongshi.

  Thinking of this loss, Soros's teeth itch with hatred.

Counting the two days of closing positions with all their strength, the average price of Quantum Fund’s shares in the Volkswagen Group is still close to 600 euros, which also means that their net loss is 8 billion euros, which is more than 10 billion when converted into US dollars. The largest losing trade in history. If Soros hadn't made a lot of money in the defeat of several major investment banks in the United States, I'm afraid Quantum Fund would have closed down directly.

  Under profit and loss hedging, Quantum Fund lost at least 7 billion U.S. dollars this year. Although there are still the last two months of this year, it is impossible to make up for the loss of 7 billion US dollars within two months. After working hard for a year, he was finally crushed by Zhongshi, and the hatred in Soros' heart can be imagined.

   But now is not the time for revenge. What Soros can't wait to do is to try to appease investors. After thinking about the joints, Soros gave Wolfgang Porsche and Wedekin a cold look, and left the conference room without looking back.

Although the liquidation price was very high, the rest of the other fund managers could only hold their noses and admit it. Seeing that even the leader Soros slammed the door, they lost their minds and quickly made decisions in twos and threes. Birds and beasts scattered.

  A turmoil with a total value of nearly 20 billion euros was resolved in this way, but the Porsche Group's acquisition of the Volkswagen Group is far from over.

   "You are Mr. Zhong, you are indeed a young talent with a bright future!"

  In the meeting room of the board of directors of Volkswagen Group headquarters, Ferdinand Piech stretched out his hands with a smile on his face, and said to Zhong Shi, "Mr. Zhong's methods are superb, which is really admirable."

   "Where, where, these are small financial means, far inferior to those of you who are engaged in industry. In my opinion, you are the foundation of this world economy."

  The bridal sedan chairs were carried by everyone. Since the chairman of the Volkswagen Group was so polite, Zhong Shi would naturally not lose his manners, and praised the other party in the same manner. Anyway, these words are free.

Just when all the dust settled, Zhong Shi and Jiang Shan were about to go home, but they didn't want to be stopped by people from the Volkswagen Group on the way. The visitor was very polite, claiming that Ferdinand Piech, the chairman of the Volkswagen Group, wanted to see Zhong Stone side. Jiang Shan was terrified on the spot, but Zhong Shi was very calm. After thinking for a while, he decided to meet with the other party, so the above scene happened.

   "If I'm not mistaken, the conspiracy of many hedge funds by the Porsche Group should be your handwriting." Ferdinand Piech still had a smile on his face, but the test had already begun.

"That's right, it's me!" To Piech's surprise, Zhong Shi didn't deny it at all, and admitted directly, "I'm very sorry that the Volkswagen Group was involved. But my main target is George Soros is not the Volkswagen Group, I hope Mr. Chairman can understand."

   "Can understand, but can't forgive!"

Piëch's complexion changed immediately, and he said in a sinister manner, "Mr. Zhong, to be honest, I hate you so much now. If possible, I would like to tear you to pieces. But I didn't invite you here today. It is another important guest, a distinguished guest from your country."

"I know that Mr. Piëch would not do this, after all, Germany is a country ruled by law." Zhong Shi had a calm expression, not at all moved by Piëch's threat, "Oh, so there is Someone else wants to see me? I just don’t know which distinguished guest it is, but I can’t wait to be able to persuade the majestic Mr. Chairman to act as an intermediary.”

While speaking, an oriental face came in. The person who came was not tall, but his face with Chinese characters was full of righteousness, and his unsmiling face gave people a sense of majesty. Zhong Shi muttered in his heart, and intuitively thought This person may be an official.

  As soon as Zhang Huiming came in, he scanned the venue slightly, nodded towards Ferdinand Piëch, and when he introduced himself, he spoke fluent English.

   "Okay, let's talk." Ferdinand Piech showed a strange smile on his face, smiled meaningfully at Zhongshi, and walked out of the room.

"Disrespect and disrespect." Zhong Shi stood up and shook hands with the other party, feeling a little strange in his heart. Could it be that the Volkswagen Group intends to use this gentleman to suppress him? If so, the other party has made a mistake. You must know the Tianyu Fund Their foundations are all in Hong Kong, so it is not easy to meddle in Hong Kong's affairs.

   "Do you know that you have gotten into trouble!"

  Now that there are no outsiders in the meeting room, Zhang Huiming said bluntly, "The acquisition of the Porsche Group has disrupted the overall deployment of the country."

   "..."

  Zhong Shi was stunned for a while, unable to react, "Director Zhang, what are you talking about? Are you sure I broke the country's plan? Wait a minute, let me make sure first. Do you know who I am?"

"Zhong Shi was born in mainland China, and his family moved to Hong Kong. He showed amazing financial talents since he was a child. He started with an antique and gradually established a financial empire with a total scale of hundreds of billions of dollars. The most outstanding contribution is that he once worked in the During the Hong Kong Defense War in 1998, the Hong Kong government united with the Hong Kong government to defeat the conspiracy of international speculators. How about it, what I said is not wrong, why, do you want me to continue talking?"

Regarding Zhong Shi's question, Zhang Huiming did not immediately refute it, but instead recited Zhong Shi's resume, and after talking eloquently, he shook his head and said to Zhong Shi, "If it's not the Porsche incident, you The last big event should be to help Huatou Company to match up and acquire Stanley Company."

   "You know so much?" Zhong Shi was a little dumbfounded, but he came to his senses the next moment, "You and Gao Dongfang are..."

   "That's right, it's a smart person who can think of the connection so quickly!"

Zhang Huiming nodded approvingly, "Before I came this time, I had a lot of exchanges with Gao Dongfang. Maybe you don't know yet, Huatou's acquisition of Stanley failed, Gao Dongfang was so angry that he became seriously ill, and now he is still full of love for you." I have deep resentment.”

"It's my fault too?" Zhong Shi rubbed his nose subconsciously, with a very embarrassed expression, "Yes, maybe he didn't know the inside story, and I didn't explain it afterwards, so it's inevitable that he blamed me. Director Zhang explained it to me, it’s not that I didn’t do it, but the situation at the time did not allow Huatou to do so.”

   "Of course I know this. Last time was a living example." Zhang Huiming's face became serious, "That's why we are looking for partners all over the world. Fortunately, Europe is not so repulsive to our entry."

   "Wait, what does this have to do with me?"

  Hearing this, Zhong Shi was still at a loss, not understanding what was going on.

   "Of course it's related, and it's a big deal! Don't worry, just listen to me explain slowly."

Zhang Huiming waved his hand and signaled Zhong Shi not to be so anxious, "You should also know that our country's research progress has always lagged behind developed countries in terms of car engines. Don't underestimate car engines. If we can master high-end car engine technology, yes High-end metal materials, machine tool bed and even aircraft engine technology are all of great significance. You must know that these technologies can be applied in other fields besides automobile engines. I mean, you understand?"

   "Understood!" Zhong Shi nodded, motioning for the other party to continue talking.

"After several years of hard work, we just reached an agreement with the Volkswagen Group last month. The other party will build a brand-new automobile manufacturing plant in the northeast of China by means of technology investment. Unlike the previous joint ventures, this Once, Germany agreed to transfer a complete set of technologies after five years, including turbine engine technology and the latest metal material information. According to our judgment, the Germans should have made a major breakthrough in the next generation of metal materials and engine technology before agreeing to the transfer For us. Although it is not the latest technology, the research on these technologies can still make major breakthroughs in related fields in our country."

Speaking of this, Zhang Huiming spread his hands and smiled wryly, "It was already a certainty, because you have made such a move, and there have been uncontrollable variables. You must know that we have already spent a lot of money to discuss this project." A lot of energy and financial resources, and at the same time promised a lot of benefits to the Volkswagen Group, including increasing government procurement. And in this matter, because the Volkswagen Group has a large market share in China, and their leaders However, if you help the Porsche Group to acquire the Volkswagen Group, according to the style of the Porsche Group and the attitude of the congressmen behind them towards China, the transaction will be completely screwed up.”

   "So it is!" Zhong Shi's face darkened, "But I didn't mean it, and I didn't know there was such a thing beforehand!"

"It is precisely because you are unintentional that the upper echelon of the country did not say anything about this matter. Besides, you are also a person who has made great contributions, otherwise the country will definitely doubt your intentions and even treat you as a spy Not too much."

Zhang Huiming shook his head and sighed, with a helpless expression, "Now that things have come to this point, we basically don't know how to explain to our superiors. You accidentally caused a big disaster, so big that we can't help you. Hey , This may be fate, and now, everything is irreparable."

  As the deputy director of the European Department, Zhang Huiming is naturally familiar with everything that happened in Europe, and the Porsche Group's multiple short-squeeze case has attracted his full attention recently. After careful investigation, they discovered to their astonishment that this big drama was originally done by their own people.

   Of course, there are results of poor communication, but there are more that I didn't expect. But for Zhong Shi, even if he knew that the country had made arrangements for it, it would be difficult to stop his plan to harm Soros.

   "Is there any chance to make up for all this?"

  At this moment, Zhong Shi was in a state of confusion, bowed his head and pondered for a while, and then asked tentatively, "If it really doesn't work, I will pay for the loss of this transaction!"

   "This is not determined by money!"

  Zhang Huiming shook his head and refused, "I'm afraid there is no possibility of recovery. We can only try to see if we can contact Porsche and see if they have plans to transfer technology, but there is little hope."

   "I don't think there is no chance of redemption!"

  Zhong Shi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a possibility, "The case of the Porsche Group's acquisition of the Volkswagen Group is far from reaching a conclusion."
