My 1999

Faced with the compliment, Richard Fuld just smiled and said nothing more.

If it weren't for profit, he wouldn't bother to come here and waste time.

A ray of light emitted from Old Soros' cloudy pupils and slowly swept over everyone.

Although the tiger is old, its aura as the king of beasts remains the same as before.

The atmosphere in the entire conference room became quiet.

"Everyone, everything that needs to be prepared is almost ready. We will take action in a week at most. You must also prepare yourself.

Pigs are very fat and we all have meat to eat. "

Hopeful smiles appeared on everyone's faces, and a sense of greed bloomed in the conference room.

After the meeting, everyone left.

Larry Ellison rides back to his home in New York.

Jingle bell bell…

The phone rang, and after looking at the call, he picked it up.

"Larry, is the meeting over?"

"Well... Golden Caesar agreed to the loan, but the interest rate was very low, only 4.4%. George is ready to agree."

As Ellison's right-hand man and chief think tank, Howard Stringer was originally eligible to participate in the meeting, but Oracle had too many affairs, so he gave up.

"It's expected. If it weren't for the purpose of paralyzing Golden Caesar, it doesn't matter whether there is interest or not." Howard Stringer said.

"Haha, you're right. We will definitely be able to give Golden Caesar a big surprise then." Ellison continued, "After today, many people increased their bets.

Paul even added an additional US$3 billion, and I am also prepared to add a little more. "

"Larry, I don't recommend that you continue to add capital."

Ellison frowned, "Why? Do you still think Golden Caesar has a chance to win?"

This time is not like last time, when more than a dozen financial and industrial giants, as well as Washington, joined forces to make a plan.

His strength and energy were more than ten times stronger than last time, and he didn't think there was any possibility of failure.

"Although I think I can win this time, my opponent is Golden Caesar. A financial genius who has been in the global capital market for six years and has never failed!

Geniuses are always different, and we must give him enough respect. "

"Damn respect, Howard, that arrogant yellow-skinned monkey is dead this time, even God can't save him." Ellison suddenly said irritably.

After so many years of smooth sailing, no one has ever brought him as much humiliation as Xu Liang did.

Especially in the last battle on oil, he lost more than 5 billion US dollars.

It was a heavy loss, and he was still bleeding in his heart.

As an old friend, Howard Stringer clearly knew Ellison's character.

It's almost time for him to vent.

"Larry, you have to understand that the money of Soros, Paul Singer, and Richard Fuld is all investors' money. If they lose money, the fund will be liquidated at most, and it will not affect their own wealth.

The four major grain merchants, Coca-Cola, Pepsi-Cola, and Disney use the company's own investment funds. Even if they lose money, the loss is the company's money and has nothing to do with them.

But you are different. "

Ellison knew what he meant.

Giants such as the Four Major Grain Merchants, Two Coca-Cola, and Disney basically have dispersed shareholdings, weak board presence, and CEOs holding the most power.

Although the CEO has great power, he only beats the workers.

They participated in the old Soros operation and made money. The company's revenue soared, and they could share a generous bonus.

If you lose money, you can just walk away without losing much of your property.

But he is different. Half of Oracle's shares are in his hands.

If the company loses money, in addition to money, it will also drag down the company's stock price, and he will suffer even greater losses.

"Larry, you are not just yourself, you are also the majority shareholder of Oracle." Howard reminded.

Larry Ellison was silent for a long time and let out a long sigh.

"Howard, this is such a rare opportunity. If I don't shoot enough, it will be difficult for me to recover from the loss last time."

The last failure has always been regarded as a shame by him.

If he couldn't save it, he would always feel that he was a head short in front of Xu Liang, which was absolutely unacceptable.

"Larry, we have to be patient.

Golden Caesar's assets are rich enough.

After Soros and the others have eaten once, they will never give up just like that. There will be more opportunities in the future. "

Once a beast tastes meat, it will remember the taste and keep eating.

Ellison understands this.

"Okay, Howard. I promise you won't invest more, but this time the $2 billion must be guaranteed."

Howard frowned, but finally agreed.

In his opinion, US$2 billion is still a bit too much.

Cutting it in half is just right.

But he knew Ellison.

2 billion is his bottom line.

"Mr. Xu, James and Blankfein called. They have agreed to your conditions."

He took the document from Lu Hui's hand.

"Tsk, tsk, I'm willing to accept 4.4% interest. I've really been planning this for a long time."

He glanced at it briefly and threw it back.

"Delay it for a few days and don't bother with them."

"OK."

Jingle bell bell…

The cell phone rang.

Xu Liang picked it up and looked at it before picking it up.

"Boss, it's me."

A steady and rich voice came from the phone.

"How are things going?"

"According to your instructions, the security personnel of Standard Chartered Bank have all been replaced. All senior executives have bodyguards arranged by us, and their families have also been secretly "protected" by us."

"Well done." Xu Liang said with satisfaction.

"Boss, do you need me to do anything else?"

"Not for the time being, you just need to follow the company's regulations and protect their safety. You don't even need to follow them too closely, give them some freedom."

Xu Liang smiled.

"Understood."

"That's it. Call me in time if anything happens."

"Okay."

Xu Liang hung up the phone and played with his phone, with a hint of thought in his eyes.

After a moment, he dialed again.

The phone rang for a while and then connected.

"Dear Xu, it's a great pleasure to receive your call."

"Bill, you promised me that you would treat me to a meal after I arrived in the United States. Now I have been here for a week, but I haven't received your invitation.

Also, don't say you don't know that I have arrived in Silicon Valley."

"Haha, how could it be. After Kunpeng entered the United States, all the dignitaries in the United States knew that the famous Golden Caesar had arrived, and I was no exception.

But there are a lot of things to do at the company and at home these days, and I have been unable to get away.

Wait a few days, a few days, when I have more time here, I will definitely treat you to a meal."

"That's what you said."

"Of course. Dear Xu, you know I never lie."

"Then it's settled."

"Okay."

After chatting for a few more sentences, Xu Liang hung up the phone.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Gates didn't take the initiative to mention it. It seems that he doesn't know that someone is plotting against you." Lu Hui said.

Xu Liang leaned back, grabbed the beautiful woman's soft and boneless jade hand, and stroked it lightly or heavily, with a gleam in his eyes.

"On the contrary, this old guy must know. And it is very likely that he has also invested some money, so he is vague and does not want to see me."

After dealing with him for so many years, he is too familiar with old Gates.

He seems to be a kind elder, but he is scheming and changing his mind behind the scenes.

As long as he sees an opportunity, he will never let it go.

"He is a big customer of Hanhua, how could he take the initiative to deal with you? If you fail, his losses will definitely not be small." Lu Hui couldn't help but said.

Xu Liang nodded slightly and sighed: "The enemy is stronger than we thought, and even old Gates has to hedge the risk."

Old Gates invested a lot of money in him. If this money loses, he will lose a lot.

So he also placed a heavy bet on the other side.

If Hanhua wins at that time, the money he earns can balance the losses on the other side.

Vice versa.

This is hedging.

Not to mention how much money you earn, at least you can guarantee that you will not lose or lose less money.

After Lu Hui understood, her pretty face was solemn.

"Mr. Xu, we should contact as many of Hanhua's clients as possible to find out who is behind us."

Xu Liang nodded. He felt different from before when he came to the United States.

When he came before, there were always all kinds of bigwigs around him who invited him to dinner, to build relationships, and to make connections.

But this time, there were quite a few wealthy people who were not at the same level. For example, Mr. Trump made six or seven calls in less than a week, and he was persistent and attentive.

But the real top dignitaries, such as Gates and Buffett, seemed to have disappeared.

Not a single call.

It was obvious that he planned to remain neutral for the time being.

He felt this weird atmosphere more and more clearly in the past few days.

It was as if a dense and impenetrable net was covering him from all directions.

It made him unable to move, and finally he bowed his head and accepted his fate.

Thoughts were churning, and Xu Liang's eyes gradually became sharper.

"You want to cut flesh from me. Even if you lose in the end, I will break your front teeth."

"Xu... Mr. Xu."

The painful voice sounded in his ears.

Xu Liang came back to his senses and quickly let go of his hand.

"Sorry, sorry, I was lost in thought for a moment."

Looking at Lu Hui's right hand that was red and bloodshot from being held by her, he quickly apologized.

He often practiced martial arts and had amazing hand strength. Not to mention human hands, he could break even a red brick.

Although he didn't use all his strength just now, it was still too much for Lu Hui, who was delicate and precious.

"It's okay." Lu Hui shook her head.

"I'll rub it for you."

She took the jade hand with apologetic look, rubbed it gently, and pushed the palace to bleed.

Feeling the man's tenderness, Lu Hui's pretty face blushed and her heart felt sweet.

"Brother Liang, we're here."

Huo Gang's voice came from the front.

Xu Liang looked through the car window.

Outside, a grand gymnasium stood tall in the morning sun.

However, it can be seen that this magnificent gymnasium has not been completely completed, and the protective wall surrounding the entire gymnasium has not been demolished.

"Go down."

After a moment of scrutiny, Xu Liang pushed the door and got out of the car.

Seeing his figure appear, a middle-aged man in a black suit and a slightly fat figure quickly came up to him.
