Chapter 451 Cuckold
“Does it look good?”
Li Shurui actually took the cap and tried it on, and turned to ask Jiang Chen.
Tell the truth.
Although it is worth 500 US dollars, there is really nothing outstanding about this hat. Even if it is eye-catching, it is due to Li Shurui’s own beauty and has nothing to do with the hat.
After all, most of the so-called luxury goods are really not that good, and they are not even as good as the cheap goods randomly selected at night stalls with a discount of 100 yuan.
How many people really appreciate those high-end fashion shows?
At least Jiang Chen's aesthetic accomplishment may not have reached a sufficient level. Faced with Li Shurui's inquiry, he didn't reply for a while.
It would be false to say that there is nothing special about it. At least the color of this hat, which follows the common "outstanding" feeling of luxury goods, is actually sparkling green.
That’s right.
This is a serious "cuckold".
Bai Haoran drank coffee in silence and looked out the window.
"...it's not suitable for you."
After a long moment of silence, Jiang Chen replied.
"Really?"
Li Shurui shook her hat, as if she didn't know what the cuckold meant in China, "I think it's okay."
Surfacedly unmoved The sensual Jiang Chen secretly smiled bitterly.
Sure enough.
How can girls be so generous?
The other party obviously did this deliberately and was making insinuations.
"Yali."
The shout came.
Xue Yali turned around and saw her belated boyfriend, a young Wall Street talent, Liu Hongzhi.
I just came from the company, wearing a crisp suit, shiny leather shoes, and the same pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He is elegant and well-groomed.
Li Shurui stopped joking and took off her hat.
"Sorry, I'm really busy today..."
On New Year's Day in Qincheng, he was still a little arrogant. After all, he was young and promising. This is human nature, but today When we met again at the Peninsula Hotel in New York, the financial genius in charge of a 50 million private equity fund seemed quite polite and apologized immediately.
"It's okay."
Li Shurui smiled slightly and said, "Sit down."
She was younger than the other party, but after all, as a sister-in-law, her status was higher.
After sitting down, Liu Hongzhi glanced at Jiang Chen and quickly asked: "I heard from Yali, sister, do you have something to do with me?"
"Well, he has something, please help."
Following Li Shurui’s words, Liu Hongzhi’s eyes focused on Jiang Chen’s face.
Jiang Chen didn’t show off his brother-in-law’s profile, nor did he make any detours. “Do you have a brokerage firm that you are familiar with? I mean, the one with a certain level of strength.”
Hearing this , Liu Hongzhi couldn't help but look at each other with his girlfriend Xue Yali.
In fact, not only them, but also Li Shurui and Bai Haoran didn't know Jiang Chen's true purpose of coming to New York this time.
“We know.”
Liu Hongzhi nodded.
Brokerage firm.
That is, a securities company.
People who don’t trade in stocks may not know much about it. In layman’s terms, a securities firm is an agent of an exchange, similar to the role of a real estate agency.
If a company wants to go public, it can entrust a securities firm to conduct speculation and sell the company's shares. If investors want to speculate in stocks, they can also buy stocks from securities firms.
The only difference is that if a home buyer wants to buy a house from an intermediary company, he needs real money, but he does not need to buy stocks from a brokerage firm.
As long as you have a certain amount of asset strength, you can "lend stocks" from a securities firm and return the original number of stocks after a certain period of time. Of course, you need to pay interest for this.
Somewhat similar to a loan. And this method is legal and compliant, no matter which country it is in, and is allowed.
There are more than 100 domestic securities companies, let alone the most developed United States.
It is the existence of these securities firms that has led to the prosperity of the financial market.
"Mr. Jiang is interested in the stock market?"
Jiang Chen nodded frankly.
"You want to trade in stocks?"
Li Shurui was a little surprised.
Looking for cooperation with a securities firm is no ordinary trivial matter. Like his girlfriend, Liu Hongzhi also had a one-sided understanding of the financial resources of this young man who was younger than himself on New Year's Day last year in Qindao.
"There are a lot of powerful brokerages in New York. The key is, which company's stock does Mr. Jiang like?"
Jiang Chen didn't hide it, pointed to Li Shurui and returned it to Xue Yali of that hat.
The eyes of several people could not help but focus on the cuckold held by Xue Yali.
Xue Yali was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but said: "For a luxury brand like this that has been developed for a long time and has a stable market, the stock price generally does not fluctuate much. It may not be cost-effective to speculate in the stock of such a company. , it’s better to spend such a large amount of money in the hope that it will rise.”
It’s true that I passed the exam abroad based on my true talents, and my insights are indeed impressive.
For those who speculate in stocks, a company with a high and stable stock price like K.E is indeed not a suitable choice.
Li Shurui can be said to know nothing about the stock market, and she doesn’t pretend to understand blindly.
Jiang Chen smiled and said nothing.
Liu Hongzhi looked at him and squinted his eyes slightly, seeming to realize something,
"Mr. Jiang wants to short K.E's stock?"
Xue Yali was stunned. .
Because of her boyfriend’s job, she obviously knows more about the stock market and finance than Li Shurui.
There is not only one way to buy stocks, but also to go short!
Being long is easy to understand.
Investors are optimistic about the stock market and predict that the stock price will rise, so they buy stocks at low prices and then sell them when the stocks rise to a certain price, thereby obtaining differential income.
Many retail investors do this.
Short selling is just the opposite.
Generally speaking, the better the stock market is, the higher the returns from multi-investment will be, but this is not the case with air-drops.
Only when the stock price falls further can short sellers make money.
So people who dare to be short-sellers are generally big guys with great psychological quality, strategic vision, and strong capital.
The most famous short seller is the world-famous Soros.
Back then, by shorting the Thai baht, a country's wealth was plundered, and the entire Thai economy single-handedly set back decades!
Facing Liu Hongzhi’s gaze, Jiang Chen nodded calmly.
“That’s right.”
Liu Hongzhi was silent.
As a professional in private equity, he quickly took out his mobile phone and checked it.
“According to yesterday’s closing price, K.E Group’s share price is 160 euros, with a market value of over 38 billion euros.”
Although Li Shurui doesn't know much about the stock market, she still knows the exchange rates of major currencies.
She did a quick mental calculation and came up with a staggering number.
This luxury brand, which she has never heard of, has a market value of more than 260 billion RMB!
"I know, that's why I asked you for help. I need a strong brokerage."
Jiang Chen repeated again.
Looking at this young man with a calm face, Liu Hongzhi fell completely silent.
His reminder was clear and straightforward enough.
This boyfriend of my girlfriend’s cousin.
Is it really necessary to short a company with a market value of nearly 300 billion? !
