My 1999

"How are you doing? Are you still getting used to it?" Xu Liang asked with a smile.

"I feel more comfortable and motivated than when I was at Jinshan." Qiubo Jun said with a smile.

"Yeah?"

Qiubo Jun nodded and said: "When I was at Jinshan, I was thinking about how to make money and how to run a good company every day. It was so tiring. In fact, I am not a good business manager. I prefer and prefer running a business. Suitable for R\u0026D positions.

It’s just that the lives of thousands of people up and down Jinshan are weighing on my shoulders, and I have to grit my teeth and carry the load forward.

It's better now. The employees of Jinshan Company have been properly arranged. Although Lei Xiaojun is on both sides of the fence and has a deep government, it is undeniable that he is indeed a very capable business manager.

Jinshan Company has him, plus you and Mr. Xie are watching from behind, so there is no need to worry about the future.

Therefore, I am completely relieved. From now on, I can peacefully engage in my scientific research and strive to develop the Hongmeng mobile operating system as soon as possible. "

Looking at the man in front of him, he became calmer and calmer than when he first met.

Moreover, he also believed that what Qiubo said just now was not a response.

In this era, business owners who are willing to sell their own houses and cars to pay wages to their employees and do research and development, regardless of their ability, have a sense of responsibility and conscience that exceeds 99% of their peers.

This is another point that Xu Liang values ​​​​Qiu Bo Jun.

Patting him on the shoulder, Xu Liang smiled and said: "Do a good job. Let's work together in three to four years to fill the gap of China not having a mobile phone operating system and completely revolutionize the global mobile phone industry."

Qiu Bojun's eyes became fiery, this was his biggest request to enter Hongmeng.

"must."

Just as Xu Liang was about to drag Qiu Bojun along to visit Hongmeng Research Institute, the phone in his pocket rang.

I looked at the caller ID and just pressed the answer button.

"Mr. Xu, something happened!"

On the phone, Qiu Heng, the head of the Pacific Fund, sounded anxious and frightened.

Xu Liang looked calm and said, "You wait first."

Put down the phone.

Smiling and looking at Qiubo-kun.

"Lao Qiu, something happened at the company. I have to rush over to deal with it. I'll come visit your Hongmeng Research Institute next time."

"Okay, you go ahead."

Qiubojun is also very knowledgeable.

He quickly walked out of Hongmeng Research Institute and came to his office before picking up the phone again.

"Speaking of which, what happened?"

"Last night, the soybeans we stored in a total of seven ports and twelve grain storage companies in Brazil, Chile, and Australia... were all burned!"

Xu Liang's head buzzed and his heart sank.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu...?"

Xu Liang said in a deep voice after taking a deep breath.

“How many soybeans were lost?”

"A conservative estimate is no less than 5 million tons."

A strong physical pain surged into my heart.

Five million tons of soybeans, based on their original position price of 2,450 yuan/ton, are worth nearly 12.3 billion Chinese dollars, about 1.5 billion U.S. dollars.

If he closes his position at the current price of 3,800 yuan/ton, he can earn 6.75 billion Huaxia coins.

Too much loss.

Moreover, Pacific Fund holds almost 35 million tons of soybean spot, of which 20 million tons have been shipped to China for storage.

The remaining 15 million tons are located in South America, Australia, North America and Europe.

5 million tons!

This means that except for the inventories in Indonesia and other places, the Pacific Fund's inventories in the southern hemisphere have almost been wiped out.

"Immediately strengthen our security work on soybeans in other countries." Xu Liang said quickly.

"I have contacted major security companies around the world to strengthen the security of the remaining soybeans."

Neither of them are fools. Soybeans in several countries and seven or eight ports caught fire at the same time. This was entirely a man-made cause.

"Send out work teams to see how many soybeans can be rescued from various warehouses."

If you can lose less, lose less.

"Mr. Xu, if this happens, I'm afraid the insurance claim settlement time will be extended..."

"Insurance claims are compensation at the original price. If we pull out one more ton of soybeans from the fire, we can earn one more ton of money."

"I understand, let's make arrangements right away."

"You contact Qiu Mingcheng from Harvest Agriculture. He has more people. The two of you can work together to do this."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Liang immediately called Qiu Mingcheng.

After the arrangements were made, I received another call from Jiang Xiaoyang.

Take the bus to Hanhua Center.

"This was obviously arson."

Jiang Xiaoyang said angrily.

"I know." Xu Liang nodded slowly.

Playing hooligans if you can't beat him is a habitual operation in Chou Country, but he didn't expect that he would be chopped down when the price of soybeans was far from reaching its peak.

"what's your plan?"

"If someone slaps you, of course you have to hit him back hard." Xu Liang said calmly.

Jiang Xiaoyang was stunned for a moment and said worriedly: "Don't go too far. Given our current status, we can't afford to compensate ourselves, so we should mainly rely on legal channels."

Xu Liang nodded. The matter is still unclear. He doesn't even know who the enemy is, so there is no need to get too entangled.

But with the laws in the United States being so sloppy, it’s not surprising that you can recover your losses.

Therefore, some methods should be used as they should.

And it’s not like he has no background.

"Notify all investors of the news that Pacific No. 1 Fund was damaged by the fire." Xu Liang said.

"What if they divest...?"

"The fund hasn't been unblocked yet. How can it be said that the capital will be withdrawn? Besides, although our soybeans were burned, with insurance, at most we lost book profits and did not lose money." Xu Liangdao.

There was a pause.

"Now I'm even more curious about who is behind this targeting us?"

"You don't think they are the four major grain merchants?" Jiang Xiaoyang said.

"Intuition tells me that it's not like them." Xu Liang touched his chin with his slender fingers and said thoughtfully, "And even if the four major grain merchants don't like us making money by borrowing from them, the first step should be Communicate first, threaten later.

If these methods don't work, you will go to extremes.

It is not their style to do things right from the start, and it does not conform to objective laws. "

Jiang Xiaoyang nodded in agreement, "If it's not the four major grain merchants, who would it be?"

The two looked at each other subconsciously and said almost at the same time.

"Allison."

"oil."

In fact, the two of them were talking about the same thing.

Xu Liang felt that Larry Ellison was the most likely person, while Jiang Xiaoyang judged that it was several companies that failed in oil speculation, including Ellison.

"Why do you think it's Ellison and not Quantum Fund, Elliott Fund Management and Washington Mutual?" Jiang Xiaoyang asked.

"It's very simple. When I competed with them in the oil market, although I lost a lot in the early stage, by decisively going long in the later stage, Quantum Fund, Elliott and Washington Mutual Fund basically made up for the losses.

So there are no irreparable conflicts between us.

Only Ellison had a verbal spat in the media before, and later suffered a loss of more than 2 billion US dollars in oil speculation. This guy is a typical arrogant maniac who believes in white supremacy. In order to retaliate, he will use any means to retaliate. I don't think the method is strange. "

After listening to the analysis, Jiang Xiaoyang nodded in agreement.

"But we don't have enough evidence. I'm afraid it's hard to do anything with him?"

"Ellison is the founder of Oracle, worth more than 30 billion US dollars, and has deep connections in American politics. Even if we can get evidence, it will be difficult to bring him down under the American judicial system." Xu Liang said calmly.

Jiang Xiaoyang couldn't help but frown.

Although she did not study law after studying in the United States, she was deeply influenced by it and understood it better than ordinary people.

Under the lies of freedom and democracy lies deep-rooted autocracy.

The margin system allows the rich to escape legal sanctions as long as they spend money, which is not very good for capitalists.

If America hadn't always treated wealthy immigrants from other countries like pigs and killed them, he wouldn't have been able to resist getting a green card.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. The top priority is investigation and evidence collection." Xu Liang said.

"I'll have someone do it right away."

Jiang Xiaoyang said.

"Find a few more private investigation companies and rely on the local police to investigate clearly." Xu Liang ordered.

"Um."

After Jiang Xiaoyang left, Xu Liang sat down on the sofa.

The more he thought about this matter, the more he felt that Larry Ellison was the most suspicious.

Jingle Bell…….

The phone rang.

Xu Liang glanced at the caller ID and pressed the answer button.

"Good morning, Mr. Gates."

It was evening on his side, and it was already the morning of the next day in America.

"Mr. Xu, congratulations. Hongmeng's Series B financing has achieved amazing results. I believe it will not be long before it will go one step further and become a top technology company comparable to Microsoft."

"Thank you. But Hongmeng is still far from Microsoft."

Gates smiled and said, "I heard that the soybean spot held by Hanhua's Pacific No. 1 Fund was burned a lot in Brazil, Argentina and other places?"

"Mr. Gates is very well-informed. Does he know who is behind this?"

Xu Liang said directly.

Anyone who wasn't a fool would be able to tell that someone was causing trouble behind this matter, so he didn't mince words.

"Haha, I just heard about this, I don't know anything else."

"Mr. Gates, this fire burned 5 million tons of soybeans in the Pacific Fund tonight. According to the current international soybean price, we will earn less than 820 million US dollars."

Moreover, the international soybean market price is now rising significantly. According to our judgment, if it continues until the end of the year, the soybean price will at least double.

That means we lost at least $1.7 billion.

Of the $1.7 billion, 60 million belongs to you, Mr. Gates. "

When Gates heard this, his breathing became a little faster.

Although he is very rich, US$60 million is not a small sum.

"Mr. Gates, the soybeans damaged by the Pacific Fund are basically in the southern hemisphere, but we also have nearly 10 million tons of soybeans in various countries in the northern hemisphere. If we cannot find out who is behind it as soon as possible, then we will lose more."

Gates is very smart and can calculate almost instantly.

If these 10 million tons of soybeans are burned, the company will lose US$120 million, plus the current US$60 million, it will be US$180 million.

To anyone, this is not a small amount.
