The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 864 The King of Wall Street (4)

   “I have exited the plan to continue shorting Europe.”

  Zhong Shi’s words made Paulson and others inexplicably surprised, “And I have obtained the permission of the US government. From now on, I will not participate in your short-selling operations.”

"What on earth happened?"

  Paulson was the first to jump out, "If you say you don't do it, you won't do it. We didn't even hear the news before. What's going on?"

   "Yeah, what the **** happened?"

  Dairio was also quite surprised. Although he had expected such a day, the speed at which this day actually came was far beyond his imagination.

  According to the current situation, Italy and Spain in Europe are in a whirlpool, and according to the economic scale and importance of these two countries, if a debt crisis occurs, it will shake the entire Europe. At such a critical juncture, Zhong Shi actually said that he would let go of the pick. In his opinion, this is really a bit unbelievable.

  Although the other people didn't speak, they all looked solemn and looked at Zhong Shi full of doubts.

  This is London. After attending the JP Morgan strategy meeting, Zhong Shi summoned several people to London for the last meeting of this small group.

  Several people didn't know it beforehand, and went straight to London full of joy. Who would have heard such news before they got over the jet lag.

   "Something happened!"

Zhong Shi glanced intentionally or unintentionally at the meeting room, where Ivana was holding her elbows outside the door, looking coldly through the glass wall, "Simply speaking, the United States and Europe have reached some agreements, and future speculation Activities will no longer be directed by Washington. Of course, there will be no protection from Washington at the same time."

"From now on, all speculative actions against Europe will become private actions. Because of the particularities of Italy and Spain, the European side must not want to see them being shaken, so if any agency plans to take action against the two countries , the retaliation received from the European side will far exceed the previous strength. In addition, for our small group, with the financial resources in our hands, these two countries can no longer be shaken. After weighing the two, I decided to withdraw from the European short-selling action."

   "What kind of revenge will they take?"

  Jim Chanos' eyes lit up, he caught Zhong Shi's words, and asked bluntly, "Don't they play their cards according to the routine? Don't they fear that things will go wrong?"

   As one of the well-known big short sellers, Jim Chanos has suffered various experiences in the process of short selling, so he is very sensitive to this aspect. Coupled with Zhong Shi's sudden withdrawal, it immediately reminded him of those bad memories.

   "It's more serious than you think!"

  Zhong Shi took a deep look at him and said every word, "Never try to challenge Europe's patience, especially if you lose the protection of the US government. Believe me, the consequences are really serious."

  Since the establishment of this small group, several people have never seen Zhong Shi say something so solemnly. Therefore, when they saw Zhong Shi's situation, they all felt chills in their hearts at the same time.

"I understand!"

  Jim Chanos twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and then replied with an unnatural expression, "I know what to do!"

"How to do it?"

  Paulson was a little unbelieving, and asked Chanos with his head tilted, "Could it be that we have such a big piece of fat, and we can stop here? Don't be kidding, Jim, this is impossible."

  Paulson's words were recognized by some people, and Ackerman and Griffin nodded at the same time.

   "You can try it!"

Jim Chanos snorted twice in disdain, looked at Paulson contemptuously, and said, "If Ireland and Greece are just the itch of the itch, then Spain and Italy are the pain of the European Union. Use your Think about it carefully, if the foundation of the euro is really shaken, I don’t know how many people will fight you desperately!”

  As soon as these words came out, Delio suddenly showed a thoughtful expression.

   Except for Bill Gross, who was not present at the meeting, several people were obviously divided into two factions because of this incident.

  Pac Investment Management Corporation has shown a particularly serious trend of internal friction in recent days. Although Bill Gross is the founder and the largest investment officer of the company, he has gradually lost his voice under the increasing pressure of other management. Under such circumstances, Bill Gross devoted most of his energies to fighting with other shareholders in order to keep his life's hard work from wasting, so he had no time to attend such meetings.

   "If they mess up again, can they still go beyond the scope of the law?"

Paulson is obviously very unconvinced. He has made a lot of money in the European debt crisis and related commodity futures, currency and other transactions. It is obviously impossible to give up at this time. Said, "I want to see, what kind of means do they have, dare to threaten to kidnap an American citizen?"

"At most, our future methods will be more standardized, try not to touch those gray areas, and just don't be caught by them!" He continued, "As long as they meet the specifications of their market, I don't believe they have other methods to Threatening us. And there are so many institutions shorting Europe in the market, is it possible that he intends to punish them one by one?"

   "I don't know about others, but for you Paulson, they are very likely potential targets!"

Jim Chanos shook his head helplessly, sighed, and said, "Do you think they haven't noticed our actions? The tracking of Bridgewater's London agency is an obvious warning. Maybe there were some The government's dealings may be that they have not grasped our painful feet. In short, we have not been warned or taken further measures so far. But all of this does not mean that Europe will not take measures in the next step. "

"Also, don't naively think that Europe intends to settle accounts with all of us. As long as it catches an institution and punishes it severely, it can achieve their goal of killing chickens and monkeys. And which institution to choose to be the role of scapegoat? It depends on their mood. Among the people present here, everyone may become a target, especially those institutions or individuals with great influence in the market, who are in extreme danger.”

   Speaking of this, his eyes fell on Paulson intentionally or unintentionally.

   "Hey, who am I afraid of?"

Paulson didn't show any fear at all. He dismissed what Jim Chanos said, and just kept sneering, "Let them come. I will form the best lawyer team in the United States and even Europe to fight with them. Confrontation in court. It doesn't matter, even if you lose in the end, at worst, I will give up all the profits."

   "Jim, as one of the most famous short sellers in the world, why are you still as timid as a mouse at this time?"

Soon, he changed the subject and began to tease Jim Chanos, "It doesn't matter if it's the United States or Europe, the situation is the same. What I didn't expect is that you are actually scared at this time. Logically speaking, When you shorted Enron back then, I still had a lot of admiration for you. But now, it turns out that’s all there is to it.”

   "Stupid stuff!"

Jim Chanos gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, cursed secretly, and was about to refute, but when he rolled his eyes, he thought of a person who could subdue Paulson, and immediately brought the topic to Zhongshi, "You don't have to provoke Me, these tricks are too low-level and have no effect on me. If you continue to be stubborn, I suggest that you persuade Mr. Zhong that he suggested that we give up shorting Europe."

  As soon as his words came out, everyone suddenly realized, and finally grasped the key point of the quarrel.

   But facing Zhongshi, Paulson didn't have the courage to quarrel with Jim Chanos. He looked at Zhongshi, muttered for a long time and couldn't speak.

   "According to the logic, I shouldn't reveal this!"

Clearing his throat, Zhong Shi stood up and said solemnly, looking at the people who were looking forward to it, "But since everyone has fought together, and they were all given up by the US government in silence, I think it is necessary to remind you Give it a shot. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do about it."

He shrugged and continued, "According to my intelligence, Europe has already found a master to retaliate against speculative organizations around the world. Let everyone rest assured that Europe, at least so far, will not plan to use illegal means to take revenge on us. But in the market place, they will somehow fight us. If Europe was a fat pig at the slaughter, now they have tusks and are ready to attack the enemy wild boar."

   "If it's not a personal counterattack, but making us lose money in the market, can this stop you from continuing to attack Europe?"

   Speaking of this, Zhong Shi's eyes surveyed the people, and finally landed on Paulson.

"this…"

  Paulsen scratched his head embarrassingly, and replied after a while, "If it is a loss of money, then of course I will not continue to stare at Europe. I will definitely not do such a thankless thing."

"However, I still have some doubts. Europe has hired a master. Who is it? Is there anyone in this world who is better than you? As long as you are here, although it is impossible to win every battle, at least you will not be able to win every battle." Will lose to that so-called European master!"

   Having been with Zhong Shi for several years, Paulson has already regarded Zhong Shi as a **** of war. So when he heard Zhong Shi's words, he was very unconvinced and jumped out to refute.

   "That person is me!"

  To everyone's shock, Zhong Shi pointed at himself and said with a smile, "The master recruited by the European side is me!"

   As soon as the words came out, all four people were shocked.

"what?"

"This is impossible!"

   "Mr. Zhong, how could you..."

  …

   Seeing Zhong Shi's unfalse expression, several people felt unbelievable for a while, but soon realized that this was not a joke, and blurted out the question immediately.

"I see!"

Before Zhong Shi could answer, Delio suddenly thought of something, his whole face was ashen, and he said with a long breath, "So that's the case, no wonder you gave us such a warning. Hey, Mr. Zhong, I really owe you this time." You are a great favor."

  Jim Chanos also understood immediately, stood up and walked in front of Zhong Shi, and gave him a firm hug.

"In the end what happened?"

  Paulson still didn't understand, and kept asking Zhong Shi, "Mr. Zhong, what happened? Why did you suddenly help Europe? This..."

   Halfway through his words, he suddenly stopped. At this moment, he also understood.

   "I have already chosen the goal, and it is already being implemented!"

Zhong Shi chuckled, seeing the changed faces of the people, he couldn't help explaining, "Don't worry, it's not any of you. But if you are worried, you can wait a little longer. I believe it will be three months. In half a year, you'll know what's going on."

  After hearing Zhong Shi's words, everyone didn't speak for a long time. None of them has confidence in Zhongshi's words. Under such circumstances, they have to think carefully about the result of confronting Zhongshi in order to short Europe.

   "How about it, are you still planning to short Europe?"

Seeing the resignation on Paulson's face, Zhong Shi added another sentence, "I have already broken the European agreement and disclosed this news to you privately. I just don't want to see your hard-earned profits and give them away for nothing. go back."

  The corners of Paulson's mouth twitched suddenly twice, a wry smile appeared, and he couldn't say a word.
