My Age of Investment
Nine hundred and forty-four, unusual taste
After getting off the car in front of a white building between 69th Street and Park Avenue, Xia Jingxing and Ivanka looked at the small building in front of them several times at the door.
It is not easy to keep such a low-rise building in New York where land is very expensive, surrounded by skyscrapers, but the small building in front of it has only six floors, which looks very chic.
After showing the invitation card to several security personnel in suits and leather shoes at the door, the group of people opened the door, which was a bit vicissitudes, and Xia Jingxing walked in with Ivanka on his arm.
As soon as you enter, you will find that the interior of the resplendent hall and the exterior of the ordinary building seem to be two worlds.
Looking at the famous paintings hanging on the wall in the corridor, Ivanka lowered her voice and said, "Daren, is this the New York United Club? The oldest club in New York and the men's first club?"
Xia Jingxing nodded lightly, "Yes, didn't I tell you on the way?"
Ivanka smiled slightly, "It's my first time here, and everything I see is novel."
These are Ivanka's inner thoughts. Although she is a socialite in New York's high society, she cannot freely enter such a high-end club.
In particular, this United Club was established in 1836 and has a very long history. Well-known members include Grand Commanders such as Grant and Eisenhower, as well as Jacob Astor IV, the richest man on the Titanic ship, William · Randolph Hearst and other political and business celebrities.
The membership threshold of the club is very high. It is said that his father once wanted to apply for membership, but unfortunately he was rejected.
Under the leadership of the waiter, Xia Jingxing and Ivanka came to the fifth floor.
Dozens of men and women had already gathered on this floor, holding wine glasses and chatting in groups.
"Daren~"
Xia Jingxing followed the voice and saw that Goldman Sachs CEO Blankfein was walking towards him with a smile on his arm.
After exchanging pleasantries, Ivanka was led by Mrs. Blankfein to a group of noble ladies, and Xia Jingxing followed Blankfein to a group of old men.
Blankfein smiled and introduced: "Let me introduce to you, this is the CEO of Envision Capital, Darren."
"Welcome~"
Most of the people raised their wine glasses to greet Xia Jingxing,
There were also a few people with indifferent expressions and no movements on their hands.
"Darren, you accuse Wall Street of speaking out for its own interests, and at the same time bad-mouthing the capital market. Your behavior...is very interesting."
Richard Fuld, the CEO of Lehman Brothers, picked up his glass and took a sip. His tone was understated, but no one could hear the sarcasm in his words.
While scolding Wall Street for being a bitch and erecting a memorial archway, he himself did the same thing.
The rest of the people looked at Xia Jingxing with smiles on their faces, wanting to see how he would respond.
"The subprime mortgage crisis continues to blow, and those institutions that are struggling will definitely pay a heavier price. If you admit defeat and leave the market early, you can stop the loss. If you join our side, you may be able to turn defeat into victory."
Xia Jingxing sneered, "I'm doing a good deed, but many media and organizations don't understand us."
Richard smiled and said, "According to what you said, many organizations should thank you."
Xia Jingxing somewhat knew where Richard's hostility came from. The Federal Reserve stepped forward to rescue the market at this moment, which was a great thing for Lehman Brothers, which held hundreds of billions of dollars in subprime mortgage bonds.
If the situation is ideal, Lehman may be able to turn defeat into victory, and even stop losses at worst.
But now that Envision Capital has jumped out to sabotage, it naturally stands on the opposite side of Lehman.
The so-called ass decides the head, and Richard and Xia Jingxing didn't have a deep friendship, so the more he looked at the kid in front of him, the more he disliked him, and his words were not polite.
Having figured this out, Xia Jingxing had a little more understanding and sympathy for Richard.
But Lehman's bad luck has nothing to do with him.
If Lehman continues to mess around, even if he doesn't suffer disaster this year, sooner or later he will suffer bad luck and cannot escape.
Richard didn't reflect on himself, and hearing this tone, he was complaining that he was meddling in his own business.
But Xia Jingxing was not angry, and said lightly, "I don't need to thank you. The market should be the one to really thank. The market is the green dollar."
Richard sneered twice, out of demeanor, he didn't argue with Xia Jingxing about this matter.
Xia Jingxing took an empty seat beside him and looked at the group of old white men.
In addition to the CEOs of large investment banks such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and Lehman Brothers, the leaders of hedge funds were almost all present.
Quantum Fund Soros, Bridgewater Fund Dalio, AQR Capital Asnes, Renaissance Fund Simmons, Castle Investment Griffin, SAC Capital Cohen, Millennium Fund Englander...
Xia Jingxing also saw Paulson, who was sitting next to Soros, and the two were having a very intimate conversation.
Seeing Xia Jingxing coming back, Paulson nodded slightly to Xia Jingxing.
"You know Darren very well?"
Soros, who was nearly eighty years old, had bags under his eyes, his face was covered with brown age spots, and his eyes were red. He looked like a vampire under the dim light of the room.
Paulson didn't think this scene was scary, because Soros, a financial giant, admired him very much, and Soros even asked for the invitation for today's banquet for him.
He nodded slightly to Soros: "Well, Darren is the LP of the Paulson Fund."
Soros smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
"Daren, Envision Capital has made a fortune this time, and billions of dollars in profits are about to be credited."
Mack's words aroused a lot of interest from those present, so Soros answered with a smile: "Daren, you have achieved such brilliant results in your twenties, and you can be called the most financially talented person I have ever seen." young people."
Xia Jingxing didn't have a good impression of Soros, but instead of hitting the smiling face, he replied politely.
However, Soros seemed to like contacting Xia Jingxing very much, and kept pestering the latter to chat.
"Daren, you and Paulson are both talented young people. When I was your age, I was far inferior to you."
Soros looked at Xia Jingxing with a smile, he could smell the same kind from the latter.
If Buffett is classified as a decent family and pays more attention to food, then they are the devil, never sticking to investment methods, and always put the rate of return first.
Seeing Soros' enthusiasm, Xia Jingxing realized something, so he chatted with Soros.
However, there were a lot of people around, and no one talked about any substantive content.
After a while, the dinner party officially began.
Xia Jingxing was burying his head in cutting the steak, and Ivanka, who was sitting opposite him, said in a low voice, "The most powerful group of people on Wall Street should be here today, right?"
"What do you want to say?" Xia Jingxing glanced at her.
Ivanka pursed her lips and smiled, "I just feel a sense of accomplishment sitting here. All the people in the room are worth hundreds of billions of dollars and control assets of trillions of dollars. This is comparable to participating in the Hilton Sisters, Hearst Sisters The party is much more interesting."
Xia Jingxing nodded, his reaction was flat.
As if she didn't feel tired, Ivanka kept telling Xia Jingxing about her feelings.
After the dinner, Xia Jingxing followed Blankfein and Mack to a cigar room.
"Daren, congratulations! I believe it won't take long for Vision Capital to become the largest hedge fund on Wall Street."
While speaking, Blankfein was filled with emotions. Envision Capital had risen too fast. It was probably the fastest growing hedge fund in the history of Wall Street.
Occasionally, one or two successes can also be attributed to luck, but miracles one after another can only show that they have real strength.
Blankfein believes that even without the help of subprime mortgages, Vision Capital will fully shine in the near future.
Mack also lamented that the hedge fund department of Vision Capital has grown from scratch, and it took only more than three years to reach an asset management scale of US$10 billion, which is really amazing.
After exchanging a few casual words, Xia Jingxing talked about his purpose.
"The investment in subprime mortgage derivatives is about to cash in. In addition, Vision Capital has initiated the establishment of a new fund with a scale of 5 billion US dollars. We are having a headache for the next wave of investment actions. We found the two today to seek the help of the two major investment banks. "
Blankfein and Mack looked at each other, and they both smelled something unusual.
"What help exactly?"
