v3 Chapter 665: Amazing profit

Hearing this, Giuseppe Eskenazi breathed a suffocated breath, and a burst of blood poured over his head.

"damn it!"

He couldn't help cursing bitterly.

Although there was speculation before the investigation that the enemy would find a way to hide, but when things were really confirmed, he was still somewhat unacceptable, and the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent.

Ah! Since Xia Yu has decided to do it, and he is still in a territory that is not his own in the UK, of course he will not grant anyone authority.

In order to clarify the relationship, Xia Yu asked George Berkeley to come forward, and George Berkeley asked his loyal subordinates to come forward through a temporary worker of another shell company, and privately found five people they didn’t know each other. Gamblers who have credit problems don't care about credit at all, they are willing to do anything as long as they have money.

And what Xia Yu paid was only five deposits to enter Sotheby's auction house, each of which cost 10,000 pounds, which cost 50,000 pounds.

Of course, this 50,000 pounds has been in vain, but compared with the profit of shorting, the 50,000 pounds is a drizzle.

Giuseppe Eskenazi took a deep breath and calmed himself down. With a cold face, he asked his cousin again: "Robert, what's the situation with that Chinese named Huashengshi now?"

There were problems with the Chinese cultural relics he offered for auction. After Giuseppe calmed down the day before yesterday, he immediately suspected Huashengshi.

After all, with his sinister deeds, there was a ghost in his heart. If something went wrong at this time, he would inevitably doubt Hua Shengshi with a malicious attitude.

What's more, he deliberately competed with Hua Shengshi for the Chinese cultural relics before, but Hua Shengshi directly retreated without any reaction. This seemed strange at first, but nothing happened before, so he didn't care too much.

Robert Eskenazi shook his head again in the disappointed eyes of his cousin: "I have asked people to investigate. He has stayed in his shop most of the day, and even his buddies rarely go out. No suspicious information was found."

They didn’t know that Xia Yu acquired Jumbo Pavilion. After Xia Yu’s acquisition, it was still managed by Huashengshi. The change of ownership only needs to be signed on paper. Jumbo Pavilion is not a listed company. There is no need for such information. Announced outside.

Giuseppe Eskenazi fixedly looked at Robert Eskenazi, and he saw that the latter's face was hot and he lowered his head in shame.

"Hey……"

"You can't relax and continue to check, as long as you have key information, tell me immediately!"

"That's it, I will deal with the matter first."

After Robert Eskenazi was sent away, Giuseppe Eskenazi immediately summoned the company's executives and directors, intending to once again brainstorm to solve the current difficulties.

After all, Eskenazi Co., Ltd. is a listed company. Although most of the equity is in the Eskenazi family, the company still has external shareholders.

Now Eskenazi Co., Ltd. has been put on the fire, and the stock price has plummeted. Some shareholders are no longer satisfied. He must comfort them and use their strength to tide over the difficulties.

External troubles have been difficult to solve, and there must be no more internal troubles!

...

At the headquarters of the Bright Fund Company, Xia Yu sat on the chair of the chairman's office and looked at the company's operations. This was submitted by George Berkeley after he came to the company early this morning.

After reading it, Xia Yu closed the document happily.

Through the operating data during this period, Xia Yu can see that the company's development momentum is very good, and George Berkeley did not let him down.

George Berkeley used his previous contacts to build a good partnership between Bright Fund and many major banks, borrowing a total of 50 million pounds, and then set up a separate foreign exchange operation department to leverage the USD/GBP exchange rate.

Over the past two months, the British pound has been appreciating against the U.S. dollar, rising from 2.121 to 2.175, and the Bright Fund’s benefit reached 22 million pounds. This result is very impressive.

And this is George Berkeley's independent performance. Xia Yu has not mentioned him before. This is what Xia Yu is most satisfied with.

An elite talent who can make money for him without worrying about him is really rare!

In addition, Bright Fund's acquisition plan is also progressing smoothly. Through a number of offshore shell companies, it has acquired 3.72% of the shares of Standard Chartered Bank and 4.21% of the Royal Bank of Scotland from the stock market.

One-twelfth of the two-year plan time has passed. Although the equity acquired by each bank is less than one-fifth of the total equity, if you think about the number of equity dispersed to ordinary shareholders and small and medium-sized investment institutions, you can see There are already a lot of shares acquired.

"Cici, you go and inform George and let him come."

"Ok!"

Soon, George Berkeley, in a suit and leather shoes, came to the office.

"George, sit down and say!"

Signaling George Berkeley to sit on the sofa, Xia Yu also got down from his position and sat opposite him.

"I looked at the data during this period. You did a good job and didn't let me down. Keep going. At the end of the year, you will receive a huge bonus!"

Xia Yu didn't ask him first, but smiled in praise.

George Berkeley smiled, bowed slightly to Xia Yu, and thanked: "Boss, thank you for your generosity! This is what I should do!"

Xia Yu smiled and didn't say more, anyway, by the end of the year, his actions will give the strongest proof.

"How is the operation of Sotheby's Auction House and Eskenazy Ltd.?"

"Boss, through the preliminary short-selling preparations, the floating profit has now reached 19.6 million pounds, of which Sotheby’s auction house has a floating profit of 15.4 million pounds and short Eskenner. Qi Ltd. has a floating profit of 4.2 million pounds."

George Berkeley immediately reported several sets of data.

After handing over the operation status to Xia Yu early in the morning, George Berkeley stayed in the short selling group specifically targeting the two major companies. These data were all the latest statistics. At this time Xia Yu asked, he happened to be able to smoothly The answer came up.

Xia Yu realized the magnitude of the decline of the two companies in his mind. Combined with the data reported by George Berkeley, he immediately calculated a rough figure. The Guangming Fund short-selling the two companies the equity of the two companies are all in percent. Of about twenty.

It is precisely because of this that the two companies have fallen by nearly 100 million pounds in total, and the Bright Fund has earned nearly 20 million pounds.

However, 20% of the equity is not a small amount. After all, if you remove the stocks held by the controlling shareholders and substantial shareholders, and then remove the stocks left in the hands of ordinary shareholders, the maximum equity in the hands of institutions is 30%. , Not even.

To be able to find two-thirds of this 30% of the equity to bet against is already quite high. Without certain ability to fool, it is really difficult to bring these financial elites into the ditch.

It has only been half a month since the layout, but it has made nearly 20 million pounds in profit, which is terrifying but normal.

After all, the profit of shorting is more profitable than longing.

Xia Yu knew that in the US financial market, the two giants, the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family, preferred short selling, and in order to grab profits, they would also use various resources and even make black hands.

Many of China’s large companies in the previous life were listed on the U.S. stock market, and many large companies have been hacked, with billions of dollars in profits at every turn. How can the predators on Wall Street not be tempted?

Even the big A shares of later generations...With the memories of those big guys, Xia Yu is very clear about the truth that was not known to the general public from 2015 to 2016.

It's sighing to think about it.

Forget it, the previous life has nothing to do with him, and in this life, his butterfly is getting stronger and stronger. The process of China and the world has long been changed, and the future has long been elusive. He now thinks that this is also annoying!

Xia Yu shook his head, cleared irrelevant thoughts from his mind, looked at George Berkeley, and asked three consecutive questions:

"How many stocks have been sold, how many stocks we have left for betting, and how many have we bought in the market?"
