Chapter 482

Freedom City Investment Company is like a battlefield. Everyone's tie is loose, their white shirt and sleeves are curled, and they walk all the way with excitement on their faces.

In front of the office hall, a group of people are erecting a large LED splicing screen. Now the big boss has become a big local hero, and the natural working environment needs to be upgraded comprehensively. Directly restore the stock exchange hall in the company.

After all, there are rewards for the money making transactions made by every company group. This is the real feast for them. A lot of money from luxury cars and houses will be realized in this feast. What's the most important thing? Opportunity is the most important thing. Almost everyone's eyes are shining with greedy green light. This is the normal state of Wall Street.

For Andy, wall street without supervision is better than paying taxes to the people who can bring wealth to themselves. After all, they are the guns in their hands.

"Boss, since this morning, there have been phone calls coming in, asking if our company has any fund projects. Many people want to give us the money. Look..."

Andy's hands are on the floor window in a happy mood, and his frivolous face is pasted on the glass. He looks down at the paparazzi, hears badstone's words, smiles and looks back and says, "what do you think?"

"I think it can become a private fund. It's impossible to operate with your boss's personal funds after all. With this effect and the following feast, our city of freedom will become the hottest investment company on Wall Street. It has great benefits to both the company's profitability and the boss's influence and contacts."

"Since it's good, why don't you start with two $1 billion funds, one with a minimum threshold of $1 million, the other with a threshold of $10 million, and the type of risk? You're an expert."

"Ha ha, good boss, with your current wealth influence, I think once the news of the establishment of these two funds is released, it will soon sell out."

Andy smiled and shook his head. He went to the sofa and sat down

The capital market is a money game. The more money you have, the more market power you can leverage. Of course, there's no way to compare it with a large investment bank that is prone to tens of billions of dollars. But the advantages of the fund project set up by Andy company are flexible operation, low cost of building a position, and the absolute return and incentive mechanism.

Private fund is called the game of the rich, which makes sense. After all, even in rabbit country, the subscription threshold of each private fund is 1 million.

Andy thinks of the current stock market, which is still a rising trend. Since the government is advocating "bull market", Andy will not go against the trend naturally. Andy still has memory of the node of the U.S. stock market crash. Before October, the U.S. stock market rose all the way, so he should make good use of it to earn a wave of money.

When the October milestone comes, it's time to short those selected US stocks.

I believe that many people don't understand the shorting of stocks. In fact, it's easy to understand: if a stock price is 100 yuan, and you think the stock price is too high, then you will sell the stock. But you don't have this stock, what do you do? Borrow. Ask the broker to borrow the stock to sell it. But the loan is for repayment. If the stock does fall to 80 yuan a few days later as you wish, then when you reach 80 yuan, you buy the stock and return it to the securities company. In this way, you will earn 20 yuan per share without any commission.

Of course, not everyone can borrow stocks from securities companies. There is a threshold for individuals to do long and short positions, so let's not think about it...

"Ha ha, now the beauty stock is like a bathtub of bath water. The plug has been pulled out clearly. The bath water is flowing out continuously, but on the surface, it is calm, but in fact, the dark tide is surging wildly. But when people see the whirlpool, they know that the water is going to shine. "

"This is determined by people's interest orientation. When everyone tastes the delicious food of making money, they will become blind and arrogant, and feel that they will not be the most unlucky one. When the stock market exists, this kind of thing will always exist. The lessons of failure are always others' and the new entrants will not care about it."

Bardstone, as a senior professional, naturally knows better that they eat this meal. As long as people have a desire for money, they will never lack the speculators who enter the capital market.

Watching bardstone leave the office, Andy sits at his desk and looks at a piece of A4 paper in his hand. It's the first generation of armor in Iron Man 1 that he drew with a pencil. It's the pile of iron pimples Tony Stark made in the cave.

There is nothing more persuasive to persuade old diehard Stan Lee than the steel battle clothes sketches in several iron man movies. Well, Andy needs to go into a state of transcendence for the exploded picture of Mark's armor, and follow the gourd to draw ladles little by little. After all, Andy doesn't know about machinery.

Put the first sketch in the document bag. Andy remembers Joseph's question about security upgrade. He gets up from his seat, goes to the door and opens the door. He waves to Joseph and Kenny.

The two quickly walked in and Andy smiled and reached for his hand. "Sit down, let's talk.""Time flies. It's been a year in a flash. I'm very satisfied with the work of you two..."

Joseph and Kenny took a look at each other and listened to the boss's words. Although the expression on their faces didn't change much, their hearts sank.

After all, I want to be Andy's bodyguard. It's a job with high salary and good salary. It's not very dangerous yet, but it's hard to find. The more they listened to Andy's words, the more unnatural their faces became. Suddenly they heard him.

"Well... Cough, although it's a bit unethical, I still hope that two people can come to help me. I want to set up a security company, and two people join the company as partners of the company. I don't know what they think of it? "

Both Joseph and Kenny have wide eyes, and their sinking heart suddenly becomes bright. This is the young boss who wants to help them. There is a huge difference between the bodyguard and the partner of the security company, especially how powerful and background the miraculous young boss in front of them is. As Andy's bodyguard, they are very clear.

"Thank you, boss. Give me and Kenny this chance Joseph didn't hesitate at all. To be honest, this was the biggest chance in his life. The change was just in front of him. As for the problems of the original company, for the mercenaries who came down from the battlefield, Blackwater was really just a hiring platform. It didn't need to be loyal. What it wanted was a killing machine that could complete the battlefield tasks.

Kenny nodded his head with joy and agreed with Joseph.

"Ha ha, that's good. I was worried that the two would not agree, and I would be embarrassed to get along with each other in the future. In this case, I am relieved. I will recruit a CEO and administrative staff to build up the company's framework. You are the shareholders and responsible for the recruitment and training of security personnel. I think it should be very simple for you." Andy breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he didn't tell lies. He was worried that the two would hesitate.

"Boss, no problem. Kenny and I have our own combat team before. It only takes one phone call to recruit. However, boss, our company's business..."

Andy looked at Joseph's face with a trace of difficulty, and asked curiously: "company business? Is there anything wrong with it? "

"In this way, if our company is just a security consulting company, it needs to recruit personnel for training. My team and Kenny's team need to conduct personnel screening. After all, some of them have war syndrome, which has been difficult to adapt to the normal social life. Many of them can't adapt to the normal life after retirement, so they can only take up guns and become mercenaries again Until I don't know when to die on the battlefield

Saying that, Joseph and Kenny's original high mood was a little low, six years of war, so that too many soldiers had a deflection of fate.

"Do you want to ask if the company's business includes military contracting?" Andy soon understood what they meant. After all, killing machines and bodyguards are two different things. They can't be changed at will.

Andy knows that the war bonus is a fat meat, and he also knows the international situation in the future. To be honest, he doesn't care about military contracting business. There are many ways to make money. He doesn't exclude war money, which means his reputation is not good. But who cares? The main thing is that he wants to legally control an armed force, one can protect himself and After all, the major financial groups in the United States have their own armed forces. Even Li Shoufu's bodyguard of HK is his mercenary. Only his own people or his subordinates can guarantee loyalty as much as possible. Of course, it's bullshit to talk about loyalty with foreigners, but the spirit of contract and the job that they serve can help foreigners I worked for myself.
