"The financial market is really chaotic now. It's getting more and more chaotic day by day!"

After reading several of today's morning papers in a row, Zhuke felt that Wall Street was crazy enough. What he made in the national calamity was a cruel man.

Dong Dong Dong~

At this time, a sound of footwork came.

Her girlfriend Lima, wearing a pair of red shorts, a white shirt and a dinner plate with milk, bread and Breakfast meat, came slowly.

"Honey, you get up early today." Lima sat next to Zucker.

"Of course."

"I have to fly to New York this morning. Of course, I have to get up earlier," Chuck said with a smile

Hearing this, Lima was slightly surprised and said, "how could the airline apply so quickly?"

"It took two days to successfully apply for a private flight to New York," Chuck said? If it had been put before 9 / 11, I would have been able to fix the route with one phone call. It's not as slow as it is now. "

After the outbreak of 9 / 11, the strictness of air traffic control has become the norm.

And it's true that it's what Zucker said.

Before 9 / 11, Zucker could easily get the route by one phone call. Not now. After all, this is the most severe moment in the aftermath of 9 / 11. Well, the person who applied for the air route, that is, Zhuke. Otherwise, another person, let alone two days, would not be able to do it in ten days.

"Well, are you going to New York this time because of gale capital?"

Asked Lima.

Hearing this, Zhu Ke shook his head and said, "there are some reasons, but not all of them. Well, Michael Blumberg, you know what? "

"Of course I know."

"Lima replied," he is the boss of the world's largest financial information company, Bloomberg, and now the mayor of New York, a regular on the Forbes rich list. "

Zhuke nodded and said, "I'm friends with him. Now that 9 / 11 happened in New York, his life is not easy. So he called on our rich friends to hold a charity fundraising event."

"I have to give him face."

As the words fell, Lima suddenly realized.

......

At noon.

Zhuke's private car, the "roller", landed at the New York International Airport.

In exchange, after getting off the plane, anyone who passes the security check will leave the airport quickly.

But today is different.

"Mr. Wald, I hope you will understand, understand and cooperate with our security work." Said a U.S. military officer at the head.

Behind him stood a dozen heavily armed American soldiers.

Zhuke nodded: "my people will cooperate."

No way, the current anti-terrorism situation is so harsh, even if Zhuke is a well-known billionaire in the United States is no exception.

As a matter of fact, not only Zhuke but also a large number of social elites and rich people are accepting very strict security inspection at the VIP exit of the airport.

"Damn terrorists, if it weren't for them, I would have been able to arrive in New York two days ago. How could it take me a few days? And this security check is too strict. I'm going to take off all my clothes, asshole. "

A rich because of dissatisfaction with the strict security, can not help swearing up.

Most of the others present were also dissatisfied.

The head of the U.S. military officer in charge of security inspection once again said: "sorry, everyone, I hope you can understand and cooperate with our work."

His attitude is humble and full of smiles.

After all, many of the rich and social elites present, he and his soldiers can't be provoked.

This is also the normal situation of VIP exit at the airport in recent days, but if you change to the ordinary airport exit, will you look at the security work again?

ha-ha!

In contrast, you will find that the airport VIP exit security work, has been very gentle. If you change to a common terminal, if you dare to complain to the security personnel, these US soldiers may have a butt on you.

Don't think it's inconceivable. A few days after the September 11 incident, it's common for passengers to be knocked down by US soldiers at the airport.

It is not uncommon for passengers to be taken away on the spot.

The financial market is in chaos. How can the airport not be?

"Why?"

Just as Zhuke was waiting for the security check, he suddenly found an acquaintance.

——Little John murnard!

He is the largest real estate developer in Wisconsin and the owner of Menez, one of the largest home improvement chains in the United States.

Menaz home decoration company, with a market value of US $6 billion;

His personal wealth, but also more than two billion dollars of rich

By 2020, John murnard Jr. will have more than $18.8 billion in personal wealth and become a big man.

He's friends with Zucker.

At the end of 2000, Zucker spent tens of millions of dollars to buy the de page manor, and the subsequent manor renovation work was undertaken by the company under the name of John Maynard, Jr.

"Hi, monad!" Juke said hello.

"Eh? It's you, Chuck

John murnard, Jr. was very enthusiastic when he saw that it was Zucker.

Although his name is "Little John", he is actually quite old. He is 60 years old this year.

The two chatted briefly.

In a chat, Zhuke learned that he came to New York from Wisconsin to participate in the decoration bidding of a New York mall; At the same time, he also accepted the invitation of a charity fund-raising activity initiated by Michael Blomberg, the founder of Bloomberg and mayor of New York.

More than 20 minutes later

Zucker and his entourage have just finished the security inspection.

"Monad, let's go our separate ways." Good bye to Junker.

Little John murnard nodded and said with a smile, "of course. But it doesn't matter. We'll see each other in three days. After all, we'll give more or less of Michael Blumberg's face. "

......

New York - gale capital.

“boss！”

In the huge conference room, a group of executives and senior partners of gale capital, led by President anty cherop, got up immediately after the arrival of Zhuke.

Zhuke pressed his hand and said with a smile, "they all sat down and said. Ms. Claire, you are the chief data analyst and one of the senior partners of the company. Let's talk about the situation of the financial market in the United States in recent days. After all, what I learned from the media is not very reliable. "

Smell speech, chief data analyst Claire immediately get up.

"Recently, the financial market in the United States, whether it is the stock market, or the foreign exchange and futures markets, can be described as a mess of imagination. A group of investment banks with the background of the Federal Reserve, led by Willis investment bank, have been madly shorting American Airlines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, JetBlue airlines and other Aerospace Stocks for several days in a row. The process can be described as simple, rough and plundering. "

"According to the information I got, the total amount of these investment banks in the past few days will not be less than $30 billion."

"Of course, that's why I'm constrained by the data. It's a conservative estimate."

"At the same time, capital groups from Asia, Europe and Australia can be described as frantically attacking the North American financial market in recent days. They have swept up more than 100 billion US dollars at least."

......

Zhuke suddenly interrupted: "Goldman Sachs, Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch and other five Wall Street investment banks, have they participated in this short sale?"

The five major Wall Street investment banks have always been the focus of Zhuke's attention.

They are the wind vane of financial markets.

"Boss, I can responsibly say that they all participate in short selling!" Claret said firmly.

"Sure enough," said Zhuke, with a heavy head, "it's hard to be rich! Even if they know that they may face huge fines from the federal authorities, they still can't sit still! "

The faces of Andi cherop and others twitched slightly

In fact, the executives of gale capital would not have been able to sit down if it had not been for Zhuke's obstruction!

You know, after the 9 / 11 incident broke out suddenly, only in the past ten minutes, when Andy called Zhuke, he took the initiative to participate in the feast.

In the eyes of wall street people, making money is the first principle!

Andi cherope couldn't help saying, "boss, are we really not involved? You know, that's billions of dollars a day! "

He couldn't help talking.

The presence of a group of executives, also unable to keep calm in the face of huge profits.

You say, don't worry about the future?

It confirms the saying that people die for money and birds die for food. People always have a fluke mentality, which has nothing to do with the amount of personal wealth. What's more, wall street people are crazy and trample on all the legal and moral things of the society. They have done a lot.

Zhuke once again rejected andI's proposal!

"I don't support short selling in the financial market in the near future, whatever you say."

"But we can do more!"

"You said that if the two houses of the United States approved Bush's war action, would the military industry stocks soar? Will the futures market of oil, soybean, corn and other important materials break out? "

Approve the war?!

The whole scene exploded in an instant.

"The second watch" is here. There are votes to vote~
