My Age of Investment

"Young man, I knew you were coming."

In the United Club room, Soros looked at Xia Jingxing sitting opposite him with a smile, without concealing the appreciation in his eyes.

“We are the same kind of people and we all enjoy the game of making money.

The slander and evaluation of us by the outside world will not shake our hearts.

On the contrary, we are better at observing ourselves from other perspectives, examining our own shortcomings in multiple dimensions, and then making up for our shortcomings. "

Xia Jingxing smiled and said nothing, the old man can say whatever he likes, just listen.

"There has been a lot of criticism of you from the outside world in the past two days..."

Soros glanced at Paulson next to him and said, "And your voice.

These empty moral standards can only restrain mediocre people. If you want to achieve a great cause, you must jump out of these frameworks drawn by others.

If they develop step by step, Paulson Funds and Envision Capital may still only have an asset management scale of a few hundred million US dollars, let alone among the top ten hedge funds in the world. "

Paulson nodded slightly. He was still very sure of the views of the speculator Soros.

Although the other party has a bad reputation, in his opinion, these are insignificant and unimportant, because now he also has mixed reputations and reputations.

Soros looked at Xia Jingxing again and changed the subject: "Of course, Darren, your investment style is quite unique, and it seems to have been influenced a lot by Buffett.

I believe that even without the subprime mortgage crisis, Vision Capital would have risen on Wall Street, but it might have been five or ten years later, or perhaps longer. "

Xia Jingxing smiled and said: "The success of Lixia No. 1 Fund is accidental and cannot be replicated. It is too difficult to achieve an asset management scale of tens of billions of dollars by investing in stocks alone, and there cannot be any accidents along the way."

Soros laughed loudly, "I said you know how to examine yourself, right?"

Xia Jingxing smiled and said: "We have an old saying in China, which tells me to examine myself three times a day. I hang it in my office to remind myself all the time."

Soros smiled, stopped talking about his investment philosophy, and finally got to the point: "The global economic downturn is almost a foregone conclusion, and individual stocks, stock index futures, and currencies can all be shorted.

The three of us work together to bring together hundreds of billions of dollars in funds. Financial markets around the world can operate freely, and no one can stop us. "

Paulson nodded slightly, "There is no problem on my side. The Paulson Institute fully cooperates with the Quantum Fund's actions."

Seeing that Xia Jingxing did not express his position for a long time, Soros shrugged the bags under his eyes and looked at the table quietly with a pair of cloudy eyes, thinking carefully in his heart.

When Soros was about to speak, Xia Jingxing interrupted him and said, "Does this include the Hong Kong market?"

With a faint smile on his face, Soros shook his head slightly, "Dylan, you still can't let go of those empty moral standards in your heart."

Paulson remained silent, but he was also a little dissatisfied with Xia Jingxing's hesitation. The United States was not his motherland yet, so he was still short-selling.

As a financial giant, Darren Xia actually has such concerns, which is really ridiculous and lowers his evaluation in his mind.

"China has its own national conditions, so it goes short..."

Xia Jingxing glanced at Soros and wanted to say that your old boy's head was bruised and bloody, but he still saved some face for the old man and changed his words: "A useless effort!"

Soros suppressed the smile on his face and said calmly: "That time in 1998 was just an accident, and they broke the market rules."

Xia Jingxing didn't answer. Even if he had the courage, he wouldn't dare to collude with Soros to build an airport island. The impact would be too bad.

“Mainland China’s economy in recent years has been driven by an export-oriented economy, and when the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out, it will also be affected.

Although it is inconvenient for foreign capital to enter the mainland, Hong Kong Island, which has a large number of mainland listed companies and is a world-renowned free port for trade and finance, will definitely attract the attention of international funds. "

Soros didn't go any further. His meaning was already clear. Even if they don't go short, there will be other institutions that do it.

"I'm different from you two. I have a lot of real estate in the mainland."

Xia Jingxing shrugged, "If you insist on targeting Hong Kong, then unfortunately, I have no choice but to withdraw from this operation."

Soros stared straight at Xia Jingxing for half a minute, then suddenly smiled.

"Okay, Darren, since you are so determined, then take Hong Kong off the hunting list. There will be no problem with markets like the United States, Europe, and Japan, right?"

"No problem!" Xia Jingxing agreed readily.

Soros nodded lightly. If the other party didn't want to engage in the Hong Kong market, he wouldn't force it.

However, he will not give up paying attention to the Hong Kong market. He still can't let go of the defeat that year.

Then, the three people talked about joint short selling operations in other financial markets.

The alliance is very loose. The three of them did not ask each other about the details of short selling. They just agreed that when encountering a difficult nut to crack, everyone can work together to strive for more profits.

If we are shorting a certain stock, everyone should do their own thing without interfering with each other.

Xia Jingxing generally accepts such a combination, but he also has reservations about Soros and Paulson.

Because the financial market is so unpredictable, you may be teammates one moment, but you may be shot from behind the next moment. No one is trustworthy, and some are just taking advantage of each other.

After the cooperation was agreed upon, the atmosphere in the room immediately relaxed a lot, and other topics were discussed.

"I heard that your mother was surrounded by reporters in front of her home. They chased her for interviews and refused to let the old lady go home. She almost fainted from fright?"

After saying that, Xia Jingxing glanced at Paulson, who had a gloomy look on his face.

"I'm already arranging lawyers to sue those unscrupulous media reporters, and I don't plan to let any of them go."

A trace of cruelty flashed across Paulson's face. He made more than three billion US dollars last year. Even if he spent only 1% of it to play with these reporters, he could kill these sons of bitches.

Xia Jingxing nodded: "These reporters are quite annoying, Peter Thiel and I have been harassed by them a lot these days.

I feel like it’s not just reporters who are chasing the news, there are people behind it who are adding fuel to the fire and deliberately putting us on the fire. "

Paulson glanced at Xia Jingxing and found something similar.

Xia Jingxing sighed, "Some guys pushed us out to attract people's anger so that they can avoid responsibility and pressure."

Paulson's heart moved and he said with a smile: "Darren, we are on the same side on this matter. If you have any good suggestions, can you tell me."

"We work hard for LP. They usually just hide behind and count money. Now that something is wrong, they have to help, right?"

Xia Jingxing smiled and spread his hands: "LPs are almost all well-known people in New York, including old money families and congressmen. They are related by marriage to each other, and their network of relationships spans the United States.

As long as they are willing to help, I think the problems that are bothering you are nothing to worry about. "

Soros laughed on the sidelines, "This is a good idea. The money is earned for their LPs, so they should contribute.

A fund that can make money safely and steadily is obviously more in their interests than a fund that keeps making troubles and has mediocre performance. "

Paulson smiled and said: "You are also our LP, how are you going to help me?"

"Didn't I show you a clear path?"

Paulson smiled and nodded, "That's right, this is indeed a good idea."

"LPs from Vision Capital and Clary Capital will also help. Let's work together to calm down the incident as soon as possible. We don't want to wear the hat of causing trouble to the financial market."

Xia Jingxing smiled lightly: "We can actually hold a LP appreciation party and reveal the second wave of actions to the LP a little bit.

There is no need to say too much, just make it clear to the LP that if it delays our actions and makes less than the first wave of actions, then don’t blame us GPs. "

Paulson nodded with a smile, feeling that although Darren Xia was young, he was very good at convincing people and leveraging others' strength. No wonder he could achieve such a big career at this age.

He believes that the LPs involved in the tens of billions of dollars managed by the three major funds are working together behind the scenes. They are definitely a force that can shake the media industry and shut up whoever they want.

Moreover, Jewish forces have also been contacting him recently, wanting him to join the group and promising to solve some problems for him.

Paulson's mother is a Latvian Jew, Soros is also a Jew, and the Jewish power in the United States is staggeringly huge.

Soros looked at Xia Jingxing with a half-smile: "In the United States, delaying making money is a big deal. Even the commander-in-chief can assassinate several people, let alone such a trivial matter.

Darren, your method is great, I believe those annoying noises will quiet down soon. "

Xia Jingxing smiled, "I hope so!"

Paulson suggested: "Let's have a drink together to celebrate the upcoming global hunt."

"Good suggestion!" Soros nodded in agreement.

Then, Paulson called the waiter with a smile and asked the latter to open a bottle of champagne.

The three people held champagne and clinked glasses, announcing that the game had officially begun.
