- In the hustle and bustle of the exchange, as the Hang Seng Index is about to close at the end of the market, a group of international speculators have stopped operations in advance.
Feeling the inquiry from Anna, Vice President of UBS, Nicole was not too sure: "Pearl Holdings holds 10% of the shares of the Federal Reserve and the U.S. Oil Reserve. Although this is a lot of shares, there are other shareholders after all. In the past, Chen They all let others earn money and follow the crowd to hide and relax. I guess this time I went to the United States, I may have some ideas to pave the way for the subsequent inheritance of the financial dynasty of Pearl Holdings and make the transition of this foundation smooth."
"I have heard that there are several children of the Chen family living in Kongling Palace, but they don't seem to be very old. Chen is still so young. Is it too early to make such a plan?" Marshall asked doubtfully.
Glancing at Ives's nephew, he found that there was a hint of arrogance in his brows. William couldn't help but smile and said: "Young people will grow up sooner or later. There is no need to wait. In ten or eight years, the capital market will probably be Their world is theirs. Besides, whether it¡¯s the U.S. Oil Reserve or the Federal Reserve, those 10% shares are simply the tip of the iceberg of Pearl Holdings¡¯ huge financial empire. If they are given to young people to play with, Chen won¡¯t feel bad.¡±
Thinking of the huge funds evaporated by the financial collapse of Japan and the Soviet Union, Nicole looked a little emotional: "Although it is said that, in recent years, Pearl Holdings has held 10% of the shares of the U.S. Oil Reserve, but it has greatly increased in value. This is especially true for banks, at least on the surface, this part of the equity is all the existing assets of Pearl Holdings."
"Chen has pruned these three money trees beautifully. With the dispersion of Pearl Century Bank's equity, the situation of Pearl Holdings has become more and more stable. I believe that Chen will not touch the equity of the U.S. Oil Reserve and the Federal Reserve. The key is Just how much ownership of Century Bank will be diluted by Pearl Holdings in the end." Ives said with some emotion.
Feeling the looks from some people, Byron smiled slightly: "It is estimated to be in the range of 10% to 15%. Now Century Bank's main business is almost all over the five continents. It is not an exaggeration to call it the world's first bank. If you want to buy equity, you will need huge funds."
"The Hang Seng Index has closed at 15,900 points. The futures and stocks that Tomahawk and the investment companies have intervened in should be very flat. Although the market situation is better than that in the morning, the pressure is still very heavy. That's us. If we don¡¯t suppress it, it¡¯s very likely that the market will continue to fall when the market opens tomorrow.¡± Anna reminded everyone.
¡°Everyone who saw Mingzhu Holdings leaving the market did not do much after-hours collection work. William left the trading floor one after another, with a wry smile on his face.
Nicole's nervous mood was relieved a lot: "Look at the situation today. It is estimated that Chen will not be out of the market tomorrow. He, a person who has withdrawn from the capital market, can do this, which is already very good."
Marshall looked at the many local Hong Kong capital tycoons who were not in a good mood, with a hint of disdain on his face: "If Chen hadn't been out of the market today, we would have taken advantage of the opportunity of the New Taiwan Dollar's loss of control to trample them. Compared to those Japanese consortiums, , Hong Kong¡¯s local consortium is too far behind.¡±
"Don't give them a chance tomorrow. Continue to suppress the Hang Seng Index, and at the same time expand our results in the futures and currency markets." Byron smiled confidently.
"Are you sure?" Old Bloomer seemed very concerned.
Byron smiled: "Since Chen did not squeeze us in the futures and currency markets today, there will not be too drastic a reaction tomorrow. If he wants to attack us, with the amount of funds of Pearl Holdings, he can definitely do it." The ability to force the Hang Seng Index to new highs."
"Now that the Hang Seng Index has closed, why not have a happy hour with Chen. Find a place to relax." On a whim, Marshall walked quickly outside the trading hall, as if he wanted to catch up with Chen Hongtao.
However, when a group of foreigners walked out of the Stock Exchange. The motorcade that Chen Hongtao was in had already left early in the morning.
"Are you looking for Chen?" Amy smiled and greeted Nicole and the others.
"He left quite quickly. I checked and found that he did not book a hotel. He probably went back to the manor and mansion in the mid-levels." Byron said with a wry smile.
To everyone's surprise, Amy smiled and shook her head: "He didn't take a car at all. He rode a small motorcycle in the underground parking lot. He didn't even bring a bodyguard. He probably didn't know where he was wandering. "
"That guy is really casual. He immediately became happy as soon as he left Campelos Island. Hong Kong is so big, God knows where he went, and there is no one to find him!" Byron looked weird and pursed his lips.
¡°While Byron and others were secretly criticizing Chen Hongtao for being unrestrained and bold, he was already riding a small motorcycle, admiring the scenery of Hong Kong¡¯s metropolis, heading towards the racecourse in Happy Valley.
From Exchange Square in Central to the RunwayThe whole journey was only 3 kilometers. Compared with the crowded streets in the afternoon, it was very convenient for Chen Hongtao to ride a small motorcycle. He walked through the streets and killed many Mercedes-Benz and BMWs.
The Jockey Club is one of the most prestigious clubs in Hong Kong, and its membership is highly respected. Members who apply for membership must be recommended by selected members.
Many famous and wealthy people in Hong Kong are members and horse owners of the Jockey Club.
Since September every year, the racecourse in Happy Valley has gradually become lively. Nearly 700 races will be held during the racing season. Both the level of competition and the prize money are among the top levels in the world.
Every year, the Jockey Club holds international horse racing, attracting horses and knights from different parts of the world to Hong Kong to participate.
Standing in the VIP stand of the Jockey Club, which is far less noisy than below, Chen Hongtao, who is wearing ordinary clothes, is watching the condition of the horses in the field with a telescope, pretending to be very professional.
Sun Yujuan, who was not far behind her, had not much expression on her face and was doing her best to protect Chen Hongtao's safety.
After a while, Chen Hongtao sat down in front of a small round table: "You and Eve have grown older these years, do you still plan to continue serving me?"
"Serving the boss is a good job. There are far less things to do. In my current state. If I serve as the boss's bodyguard for a few more years, there shouldn't be any problem." Sun Yujuan said with a rare smile.
"Of course it's best if you want to keep doing it, but the old man is more considerate. In the past, I arranged for Qiao Ruoyu to go to JFK International Airport because of that gambler and shopaholic Qiao Ruoyu. However, she has come back to work as a stewardess in recent years, and she has done a good job. Very good." Chen Hongtao pulled out the straw from the juice cup and took a hearty sip of the iced juice.
¡°When I saw Chen Hongtao picking up an ice cube, putting it in his mouth and chewing it loudly, he looked like he had good teeth. Sun Yujuan was already a complete woman. He just smiled and said nothing more.
¡°Let¡¯s sit together, you¡¯re too conspicuous standing there.¡± Chen Hongtao yawned and said with a smile.
Hearing what Chen Hongtao said, Sun Yujuan glanced at the vast and luxurious VIP stand, but did not refuse and sat opposite Chen Hongtao.
"I have already said hello to the trainer and jockey before. I have to go all out in the last race today so that our pearl star can win. When we are done, does the boss want to run two laps here in person?" Sun Yujuan Asked Chen Hongtao.
Chen Hongtao shook his head with a smile: "Our racecourse in Kamploz is not only where you can race horses. You can also watch dressage performances. There is no need to walk in conspicuous circles here."
"Boss, don't you place some bets? Both the jockey and the trainer say that our star is in excellent condition. I estimate that he will win the prize in the last 2,400-meter final." Sun Yujuan asked calmly.
"The mentality of horse owners is somewhat different from that of horse betting people. How about it, do you want to earn some extra money?" Chen Hongtao asked Sun Yujuan with a smile.
"Does the boss also know a lot about horse racing? If I can place bets, I hope to buy some Pearl Stars." Sun Yujuan said with an interested smile.
"If you want to win, it's better not to buy Pearl Star. Although I didn't watch the horse's morning exercise, but I just saw Pearl Star's slow pace. It seems that the horse was exercised too hard and spicy. The state has begun to decline from its peak. , just looking at its posture is not very calm, and the horse's reaction is not sharp when pushed by the person, and the pace is not lively, but gives people a feeling of laziness. The horse "Pearl Star" is today There won't be any hope." Chen Hongtao said to Sun Yujuan with a smile.
Sun Yujuan frowned: "Obviously morning exercises are good. How could this happen?"
"Sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing to be eager to achieve results. There are many ways to train horses in the morning, and the results are not the same. It is just like athletes. Once the condition is sufficient, the trainer trains too hard, but it is easy to lose the condition. Ups and downs, loss of vigor." Chen Hongtao had a smile on his face, and there was no hint of disappointment or frustration.
¡°Then according to the boss, which horse has the hope of winning?¡± Sun Yujuan shook her head slightly, seeming to regret that the trainer and jockey missed the opportunity.
"That Shenhuang horse looks good, showing good posture and calmness, and walking like a wheel. I guess it has a great chance of winning." Chen Hongtao looked at the brown horse and pointed at the brown horse running under the stands and said with a smile.
Sun Yujuan looked at Chen Hongtao with a slightly surprised smile: "Even if the boss is not a financier, with his eyesight, he will not go hungry just by betting on horses."
"Haha~~~ It's still hard to make a living by betting on horse racing. This bottle of 1787 Lafite alone costs US$140,000. If it had been when I first arrived in New York, it would have taken me a long time to open it. !" Chen Hongtao smiled and glanced at the red wine on the table.
¡°This wine comes from Rothschild, the owner of Chateau Lafite.Family, last time Miss Nicole came to Campelos Island, she brought a total of 50 bottles. The boss didn't drink much, and there were still some left. "Sun Yujuan reminded Chen Hongtao with a smile.
"In the past, Meng Ling was willing to drink this kind of thing, but now without her, there are few people on the island who like this drink." Chen Hongtao smiled and snapped his fingers, signaling the waiter not far away to pour two glasses of wine.
"Will Miss Su come back in the future?" Sun Yujuan asked curiously, then realized that she had talked too much.
Chen Hongtao had an easy-going smile on his face: "It seems that you have really become a woman. Nine years ago, you would never have asked such a thing. But it is very comfortable to relax a little. These years have passed. Many things have faded away, and I guess Meng Ling will not come to Campelos Island."
"I didn't expect that Mr. Chen is not only great at capital operation, but also has research on horse selection!" Sun Yujuan heard the male voice laughing, making her suddenly stand up from her seat.
The voice seemed to be transmitted directly to the brain, but the person who spoke was not seen. It was no wonder that Sun Yujuan was a little embarrassed.
When she was talking about horse racing with Chen Hongtao, Sun Yujuan clearly didn't notice anyone approaching. There was only one waiter around, but now she heard people talking strangely, which made Sun Yujuan, a bodyguard, extremely vigilant.
Within ten breaths, several people led by the brown-haired man walked out of the elevator front room in the distance.
Regarding this strange situation, Chen Hongtao just drank half the glass of red wine. Instead of being nervous, he looked amused.
Seeing Chen Hongtao lighting a cigar leisurely, he motioned for Sun Yujuan to sit down. The brown-haired man, who looked about thirty years old, couldn't help but reveal a smile of admiration on his face: "Mr. Chen is indeed a big shot. I hope you won't blame me for being presumptuous."
"I don't mind if you kneel down and talk." Chen Hongtao said with a leisurely smile when he discovered that there were subtle wrinkles in the corners of the brown-haired man's eyes that were difficult to detect. It was definitely not as simple as he looked in his thirties.
Hearing what Chen Hongtao said, the stern-faced old man behind the brown-haired man couldn't help but move forward, but the brown-haired man raised his hand to stop him.
"I just eavesdropped on Mr. Chen out of curiosity. I'm really sorry. I hope Mr. Chen can be a gentleman and don't argue with me. As an apology, how about I give the Shenhuang horse to Mr. Chen?" The brown-haired man bowed and smiled. road.
"You showed up in such a hurry, it shouldn't be as simple as compensating for my horse, right?" Chen Hongtao looked into the distance with his binoculars, as if he was looking at the horse the brown-haired man was talking about.
"Let me introduce myself first. I am Aldrich Jedda, Bishop of the Holy Alliance. I came to Mr. Chen this time to talk about the offshore fishing company you currently own." The brown-haired man's words made Sun Yujuan's heart Startled.
But even if the brown-haired man revealed his identity, Chen Hongtao didn't look at him seriously. Instead, he and a few people behind him stood aside.
It seemed that Chen Hongtao couldn't bear the treatment. The people behind the brown-haired man were about to have a fit, but he stopped them.
"You have to have money if you want to talk. How can you negotiate with me just by those rotten sweet potatoes behind you with the word "death" written on them?" Chen Hongtao couldn't help laughing.
A wry smile appeared on the brown-haired man's face: "Mr. Chen is not only a financial king, but you also have close relations with the political capital of the United States and Russia, and privately run the Black Sand Security Company. In terms of hard power, I am indeed inferior to you. you!"
Seeing that Chen Hongtao ignored him, the brown-haired man seemed unwilling to give up: "But as a practitioner, I think Mr. Chen should be a like-minded person. Compared to Freemasonry, our Holy Alliance is more suitable for you to join."
Chen Hongtao said with a joking smile: "You seem to have made a mistake. I am not a cultivator, and I don't think joining your Holy Alliance will bring me any benefits."
"That's such a pity. It's difficult to make progress if you remain steadfast in your cultivation. I hope Mr. Chen can think about it again." Aldrich lowered his stance.
"You're not qualified to make noise in front of me, so I'm going to show you how foolish you are to bring a few fools here today. You, the Bishop of the Holy Alliance, only have so much power. I believe that a ten-year-old child is smarter than you." Chen Hongtao waved his hand as if dismissing a dog, looking a little impatient.
The brown-haired man's face changed slightly, but he quickly apologized: "I didn't think well today. I'm really sorry. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely go to Campelos Island to apologize to you in person. But I am Mr. Chen really has great expectations when he joins the Holy Alliance and will continue to wait."
Seeing that Chen Hongtao was unwilling to pay attention to him, the brown-haired man took his leave and left the VIP stand with a few people behind him.
"He is so arrogant. Who does he think he is? He is just a capitalist with a bit of money. Bishop, why don't you let me teach him a lesson." After leaving the racecourse, a sturdy middle-aged man was buzzing with words. , appears very powerful.
"I wanted to shock him, but I didn't expect to mess up the matter. I really lacked consideration when meeting him on this occasion today." The brown-haired man frowned and sighed.
"Bishop, if we want to get the ambergris fruit, wouldn't it be better for us to contact Amy Kennedy directly? There was no way to use the grape fruit before, but now the situation is different. As long as we can get the mysterious seed, We can definitely learn from the Green Group and get involved in offshore fisheries." The old man with a stern face reminded hesitantly.
"What do you know? Mrs. Amy's mysterious seed has long been taken by Chen Hongtao. Now the affairs of Tianhua Island are superficially a cooperation between Pearl Holdings and Green Group. However, after these years of subtle changes, important But everything is in the hands of Chen Hongtao, even the seed is no exception. Mrs. Amy is only in charge of the offshore fishery at the moment." Aldrich glanced in the direction of the racecourse.
"This is basically a robbery. Using the Heisha Security Company's control over Tianhua Island, it has forcibly seized control of the cultivation of ambergris grapes. In the past nine years, the marine fishery resources harvested by Green Ocean Fisheries have There are countless of them. The output of ambergris must be very large. Coupled with the stocks accumulated by the Green Group over a long period of time, I am afraid that the man named Chen has already benefited greatly." A red-haired girl looked a little unwilling.
"You can't afford to offend that kind of evil big capitalist. Including us, today's cultivators are all vulnerable groups. How can they be defeated by guns and guns? If we couldn't control it just now, everyone's lives would probably come to an end! "The brown-haired man sighed.
"She's just a female bodyguard with good skills. She doesn't seem to have much ability. No matter how powerful Chen Hongtao is, if I had done it just now, I was absolutely sure I could kill him." The old man clenched his withered claws slightly. . - Didn't finish reading?
