Lisco's American Life

It was already the next morning when Lisko woke up. He had gone to the past after being drunk yesterday. He didn't know how he came back. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar room and decoration.

After Lisko woke up, he sat blankly on the bedside, thinking about his drunken dream.

In the dream, he was still the little editor with nothing, working from 9 to 8 every day, rushing for life. Lisko wiped the tears shed in his sleep, and he began to reflect on what he had done. It seemed that he had traveled from time to time to the present.

I have become a little passive, and I always have the unreal feeling of muddling along, as if this is always a dream in my heart, and I will wake up at any time.

He rubbed his head and walked to the window, looking at the cowboys working in the pasture, the endless pasture, and Megan picking vegetables in the vegetable garden downstairs. She had a house, a car, a beautiful girlfriend and a lot of money.

savings, these are the days he dreamed of in his previous life.

He took a breath, and now he truly felt that he was completely himself.

"Morning, Honey."

Meghan was picking vegetables downstairs wearing a beautiful sunhat and gloves, "Breakfast will be ready soon."

"Okay." Lisko felt that he should make some changes, and cheered up to respond to Megan.

He went to the bathroom to take a shower, washed away the fatigue of the hangover, changed his clothes, and went downstairs with a head of wet hair.

"Morning," Megan put breakfast on the table, "Are you okay?" Megan looked at Lisko who was in low spirits with some concern.

"It's okay, but I'm a little out of sorts. I haven't been drunk for a long time." Lisko rubbed his brow.

"By the way, why did I come back yesterday? I can't remember. I drank too much." Lisko asked.

"Haha, Honey, you are so cute when you are drunk. Do you remember what happened yesterday? You and Lin knelt on the ground and became brothers. In the end, you were so drunk that I called Rooster to bring you back. Uncle Lin was very

"Satisfied, he said you were very," Megan frowned, thinking carefully about the awkward Chinese, "really, to be honest, he also said you are welcome to go there next time."

Lisko covered his face with some annoyance. He felt that the image he had been deliberately maintaining had collapsed.

"Okay, Honey, you're so cute." Megan kissed Lisko's face, "Let's have breakfast together."

After the two had a sweet breakfast, Lisko went to the study and started his work.

"Lu Bo, I'm Li."

"Wow, this is the first time that Li took the initiative to call me and asked me to guess if you want to ask about sales?" Lu Bo's voice was as hearty as ever.

"Yeah, don't be too pretentious, how many sales have you had?" Lisko joked helplessly, Lu Bo said.

"Currently, the sales volume in the United States has exceeded 8 million, and the Nobel nomination is also in the process. The editor of Random House told me that it has entered the final review stage, and it is very likely to be nominated." Lubo's voice also started to get excited.

"Okay, send me an email with the latest sales progress. I've been thinking about new books recently." Lisko arranged.

"New book? This is not like you. Why are you so inspired recently?" Lu Bo was also very happy about Lisko's progress.

"I am determined to be a prolific writer. For this new book, I am considering targeting children. The first two books are for adults, and the third one is for students. I want to monopolize readers of all ages and establish a solid position so that in the future I

Even if you fail once in a while, you will not be shaken." Liske made no secret of his ambition and pride. After all, his agent is his closest support in the literary world.

Lu Bo was also full of fighting spirit and continued to struggle.

Lisko then called Chandler, the head of his investment company. This was the executive Lisko had found on Wall Street. He was responsible for all things in his investment company. When the headhunting company introduced him, he explained that he was "able to

He arranges the work assigned by his superiors well, but other business abilities are deficient." Lisko immediately settled on him. After all, what he needed was a person in charge who could obey orders. How could other investment visions be comparable?

Yourself?

"BOSS," Chandler is a very taciturn, middle-aged man in his forties. He has always been concise and to the point.

"How is the company lately?"

"Everything is business as usual, the Mainland Investment Branch has completed its task."

"How much money is left in the company account?" Liske asked,

"BOSS's royalties are continuously flowing in, and the companies it invests in are also paying dividends every year. At present, most of the goals have been completed, and most of the expenses are only used to pursue investments and prevent dilution. Currently, the company's account funds are huge, with a balance of 700 million

Sixty million dollars." Chandler knew the company's numbers inside and out.

All of Lisko's royalties and income were arranged by him to be transferred to the investment company, and the investment company paid him two million US dollars in dividends every year. He did not need much money in his life.

"The company has two tasks in the next stage. One is to acquire some theater chain companies in the United States and integrate several third-rate theater chains for listing. The other is whether our company holds shares in banks."

"Our company currently holds 15% of Ant Bank and is the second largest shareholder. However, the Ant family holds 70% and has firm control. We only have some dividend rights."

Li Ke thought for a while and said, "To fully acquire a small bank, we guarantee complete control and the concealment of our company's capital circulation."

"Okay, BOSS," Chandler said as always, not questioning Lisko's arrangements and faithfully executing the mission.

Lisko also made plans for future operations. No matter how ignorant he was, he still knew about the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States in 2008. He planned to make preparations and acquire banks to operate.

The way to make money in the subprime mortgage crisis is very simple. Before the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out on a large scale, borrow subprime mortgage securities from other banks, brokers and other investors, and then sell them to other buyers. After maturity, buy them from the market.

Subprime mortgage securities are then returned to the original creditors.

These were the materials he consulted when writing in his previous life. The "subprime mortgage crisis" in the United States began to gradually emerge in the spring of 2006, and reached its peak in 2008. It began in the summer of 2007, and by August it had swept the world, affecting countless companies.

When the bank collapses, Lisko must be prepared to get enough funds for development from this opportunity. At the same time, the housing prices in the United States have dropped to the lowest level. He can acquire high-quality real estate and be a landlord with peace of mind in the future.

The current crisis is not yet obvious, and smart people have already begun to take action. It is not too late for Liske to enter the market, and countless fund managers have made profits in this crisis, the most famous of which is John Paulson. In 2007

, the return of one of his funds reached 590%, and the return of another fund was 353%. By December 2007, the value of the funds he managed had soared from US$6 billion to US$28 billion. Lisko was among so many big guys.

The operation, and using your own bank, will not attract attention.

He also believed that when other banks would be affected by the crisis and went bankrupt, he would use his own bank to merge other banks. This was another high-quality asset.
