Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 837 "835" Hong Kong Island feigns weakness, Soros: I can do it again! The advantage is in my hands!

new York.

The Soros Fund Management Group building.

Sunshine shines on New York.

On the top floor, in Soros's office, huge floor-to-ceiling windows offer a view of the bustling streets of New York.

Soros's eyes were fixed on the Hang Seng Index on the screen in front of him.

The number on the screen clearly showed: 17130 points.

"How can it be so stable?"

He felt a subtle, almost imperceptible irritation.

"My goal is to drive it below 14000 points."

However, the reality is that a week has passed and the Hang Seng Index has remained at a high level, only falling by more than 300 points.

why?
Soros frowned, his fingers tapping unconsciously on the table.

In Southeast Asian countries, their markets are like grass; you can easily step into the mud.

I never expected Hong Kong Island to be such a tough nut to crack.

"Could it really be as Jones warned: that the people on Hong Kong Island have a lot of confidence in Hong Kong Island?"

Ring ring ring~~~
At this moment,
Just then, the phone on the desk rang.

Soros glanced at the caller ID; it was Robertson from Tiger Fund.

He took a deep breath and answered the phone.

“George,” Robertson’s slightly annoyed voice came from the other end of the phone, “It’s been a week, and the Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong has only dropped this much. What’s going on? We’ve invested a lot of money. If this continues, we won’t even recoup our costs!”

Just as Soros was about to explain, the phone rang again; it was the Goldman Sachs president's private line.

He gestured for his assistant to answer the call, then said to Robertson, "Be patient, Julian. The situation in Hong Kong is more complicated than expected, but I'm confident..."

Before he could finish speaking, another assistant handed him another phone and whispered, "It's from Morgan Stanley."

All three parties called.

Soros answered the phone, and the voice of the Morgan Stanley vice president immediately came through:
"George, our clients are all pressing us. They're following your lead in targeting Hong Kong Island, not to see the index stagnate. Why hasn't it fallen yet?"

Soros became the leader, reaped the benefits, and naturally had to shoulder some responsibility.

After hanging up with Morgan Stanley, Tiger Fund's Robertson was still rambling on and on.

Soros, holding the microphone, calmly said, "Julian, the market needs time to develop. Once panic sets in, the decline will be rapid. Give me another week, and I will definitely see results."

After hanging up the phone, the office fell silent for a moment.

Soros's expression turned serious.

Now, they're in a bind.

If he fails, all the reputation he has worked so hard to build in Southeast Asia will be gone.

Today, he wields immense influence in the financial markets, and many wealthy individuals regard him as a legend.

The Quantum Fund has expanded rapidly.

Those American institutions, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Tiger Fund... they're all watching.

How would they view themselves if they failed to take over Hong Kong Island?
laugh at?

question?

Would they even take the opportunity to kick someone when they're down?
Soros's gaze gradually hardened.

No, we absolutely cannot back down.

Must persevere!

Even though the current investment has exceeded expectations, we must continue to increase it.

The first step is to drive the Hang Seng Index below 14000 points.

Only by succeeding can one preserve their reputation and retain the trust of those hesitant organizations.

He picked up the phone on the table and gave new instructions to his team.

……

……

Hong Kong Island, Landmark, Soros Fund Management Company.

It was still 21 PM.
Bright lights.

Rodney Jones received a call from Soros. After hearing the instructions, his eyes sharpened, and he immediately assembled his team.

"The boss just called!"

"He was very dissatisfied with our results!"

The entire team immediately fell silent.

Rodney Jones glanced at his team members and said seriously, "The boss's meaning is very clear: increase the stakes and dump the shares!"

"It's 21 PM now."

"In the foreign exchange market, we have no say in it right now, in the UK and New York..."

"Our battlefield will be tomorrow during the day..."

"Everyone, please work hard tonight and let's discuss tomorrow's action plan!"

"Yes!"

The team members didn't dare to slack off and immediately took action.

Make a plan, prepare funds...

Also, contact the media.

……

Early the next morning,
As soon as Rodney Jones woke up, he received good news from the United States.

In the foreign exchange markets of New York and the UK, the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate plummeted.

Although it did not fall below the safety line set by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, the decline was still encouraging.

"good news!"

Rodney Jones raised his arms in excitement.

This is groundbreaking good news.

A good omen; perhaps today will be different!
He quickly finished his breakfast and arrived at the company. The other members had already arrived, each with an excited expression on their face.

The stock market opens at 9:00 AM.

Rodney Jones ordered a sell-off, and a large number of sell orders flooded the market.

At 10 o'clock, watching the stock index on the screen continue to decline, the team members' smiles grew wider.

"It's fallen, it's fallen quite a bit!"

"Great news!"

Their voices were filled with joy.

"Although we could sense that someone was trying to support the market and absorb the shares we sold off, the overall trend was still downward."

"This shows that confidence in Hong Kong isn't that strong either." "Retail investors have finally woken up; they're running away."

12 o'clock, the morning session closes.

The Hang Seng Index fell 1%.

This is only the morning.

Rodney Jones looked at the numbers on the screen, a smug smile playing on his lips.

The stock market reopened at 13 p.m.

The Hang Seng Index continued to fall, with some investors accumulating shares, while many retail investors also sold off their stocks.

……

Hong Kong stocks officially closed at 16 PM.

Soros' team gathered around the screen, watching the final closing data.

"The Hang Seng Index fell 1.5%!"

The Hong Kong dollar has fallen by 0.4%!

"Yay~~~"

The whole crowd cheered.

Although a 0.4% drop may seem small, it is actually a moderate decline in the exchange rate.

Looking at the two sets of data, Rodney Jones's nerves, which had been tense for more than a week, finally relaxed, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Finally, a decent drop!"

"After more than a week of hard work, we're finally seeing results today!"

"That's more like it! That's how it should be!"

Everyone chimed in with their own words, and some even couldn't resist giving each other a high five in celebration. The atmosphere in the office was transformed from its previous dullness into a lively and cheerful one.

Rodney Jones cleared his throat, signaling for quiet, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Everyone, do you see that? We're finally back on track."

"Next, as long as we follow the same operational path as in countries like Thailand and the Philippines and proceed step by step, the market on Hong Kong Island will definitely become our vegetable garden, just like theirs."

Rodney Jones' eyes were full of confidence: "Keep this pace, we'll continue tomorrow and get the Hang Seng Index below 14000!"

"Must win!"

"Must win!!"

The entire audience was brimming with confidence.

……

……

Five Star Group.

"It wasn't easy~~~"

Guan Zu leaned back in his chair, looked at the closing data, and let out a long sigh.

Yesterday, seeing that the stock market hadn't fallen much in a week, Guan Zu had no choice but to activate his backup plan overnight. In the morning, he mobilized 1 employees under the group's Five Star Property to pretend to be retail investors, buying and selling. 8000 people sold, and 2000 people bought, creating a constant tug-of-war.

The goal is to make the stock market appear to be falling, but not too sharply; it needs to be just right to make the other side feel that there is "something to look forward to," without causing panic among the public.

Only Five Star Group can do this, ensuring that employees are sufficiently obedient.

Guan Zu picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of goji berries... cough cough, not for health benefits, but mainly for the taste! That's right, it just tastes good!
Guan Zu's gaze returned to the 1.5% drop on the screen.

Today's market closed with good results.

"I wonder if they managed to fool Rodney Jones and his gang..."

Corner of the mouth √!
……

On the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's side.

Mr. Ren sat in his office, looking at the Hong Kong dollar curve displayed on his desktop computer.

Last night, the foreign exchange markets in the UK and New York started dumping Hong Kong dollars. Then, he deliberately loosened monetary policy and did not fully utilize the US dollar to absorb these Hong Kong dollars, causing the Hong Kong dollar to gradually decline.

"The exchange rate has fallen by 0.4%... but it's still within a controllable range..."

"We'll try to recover some of that tomorrow, then relax some more..."

"Walking back and forth, then slowly descending..."

"Next week, we'll hold another press conference to announce an exchange rate adjustment, just to make speculative capital happy..."

new York.

Soros Estate.

9 a.m.

Soros got up on time, changed into his workout clothes, went swimming in the manor's pool, and then did some exercise.

After completing the entire process, he was out of breath, feeling that his body was really getting older.

Not reconciled!

After returning to his room and washing up, Soros went to the dining room for breakfast.

A report was already laid out next to the dining table.

The report contains the latest data on the Hong Kong stock and foreign exchange markets.

Soros sat down and picked up the report to look through it.

He paused slightly when he saw the data from Hong Kong Island.

The more I looked at him, the more relaxed his expression became.

At last,
"Hoo~~~~"

He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

"I knew it! Hong Kong Island would be no exception!"

The report shows that both the foreign exchange market and the stock market have fallen significantly.

That familiar feeling is back—just like what I saw in the Southeast Asian market before.

Soros's eyes sharpened.

Next up is his signature triple helix strangler.

By simultaneously exerting influence in the foreign exchange, stock, and futures markets, a synergistic effect can be created, completely crippling Hong Kong Island's defenses.

Corner of the mouth √!
The advantage is mine!

make a fist!
