Chapter 959 The Soros Family
St. George Private Hospital, New York.
Old Soros, who is old, gray-haired and with a depressed look, is lying on his back on the hospital bed.
Five Soros family members were sitting or standing around him.
"Although we retreated in time, the leverage was too high, plus Hurricane Katrina came too quickly, and the principal invested..." After looking at his father's expression, Alexander slowly Said, "Only 11% remains."
Old Soros slowly closed his eyes and his breathing became rapid.
“Father.”
The people around him quickly gathered around.
After taking a deep breath, Old Soros said slowly: "I'm fine. Alexander, if there is any other bad news, let's share it together."
"Customers who invest in our Quantum Fund , especially those customers who invested in the Dragon Slaying Plan, are now clamoring to withdraw their funds..."
"What did you say?"
"They said enough is enough and they don't want another Hong Kong-style failure."
Alexander looked nervous. He knew very well that the disastrous failure in Hong Kong was in his father's heart. nightmare.
Old Soros clenched his fists, with an angry look on his old and haggard face.
After a long time.
"Where is Golden Caesar?"
"When we closed our positions, Golden Caesar also closed our positions. But I have been taking care of you in the hospital these days. I don't know if Hanhua has closed its positions and left." "
"Father, I think you should ask more about why Alexander disobeyed your order to continue to do long and closed his position privately."
Standing to one side with his arms folded, he has a slender face and eye sockets. The middle-aged man, who was deeply sunken and had a sinister expression, said coldly.
"Father, I was originally prepared to carry out your order, but Ellison and Paul Singer all asked me to close my position immediately. I don't have your authority and can't control the company's employees. I can only watch. They forced them to close their positions, so..."
"Tsk, tsk, you are so outstanding. As the heir to the Quantum Fund, you can't even control the company!"
"Robert!"
Old Soros said solemnly.
Feeling the anger in his father's words, Robert closed his mouth.
Seeing all this in his eyes, something strange flashed in Alexander's eyes.
"If you make a mistake, you will be punished. During this period, you will not go to the company."
"Yes."
He was not allowed to go to the company, but he was not removed from his position as the vice president of Quantum Fund. .
Robert was very dissatisfied with this punishment of being lifted high and put down gently.
"Father, I think I am more suitable to manage the Quantum Fund than Alexander. Especially during this period, too many people have withdrawn their capital and the company is in turmoil. People like me who are familiar with the operation of the Quantum Fund are needed more."
< br>
After looking at him, Old Soros said slowly.
"Robert, let me think about it first."
Looking at his eldest brother who couldn't wait to get the upper hand, Alexander looked sarcastic.
The old man is extremely controlling.
Before he wanted to give up, he would never allow anyone within the Quantum Fund to threaten his position.
Not even his biological son.
He has seen through this, and he has been working low and low in these years, always taking the blame for the old man, successfully squeezing out the boss and the second child, and becoming the "Prince of the East Palace" of the Quantum Fund.
This time, it was actually correct to go against the closing order issued by the old man Qi Gongxin.
The Quantum Fund did not suffer greater losses.
But a violation is a violation.
The old man will also punish him for the sake of face.
This is taking the blame.
He agreed without any rebuttal, which undoubtedly gave the old man a step down.
Compared with the boss who is eager to get the upper hand, of course he is more considerate.
So he is not worried at all about losing his inheritance rights to the Quantum Fund.
"Father, the company is in chaos now, and we don't have much time to think about it." Robert said quickly.
Looking at him, Old Soros' expression turned cold.
"Robert, I'm not dead yet."
The cold eyes made Robert Soros's heart tremble.
"Father, that's not what I meant..."
"Okay, I'm tired. Alexander stays, and everyone else can go out."
Robert's face changed, and he glared angrily at Alexander opposite, and walked out angrily.
“Robert?”
Just as he was about to get in the car, he turned around and looked at his brother behind him.
“Jonathan, is something okay?”
"It's almost noon, let's eat together."
Robert nodded, "Get in the car."
Jonathan smiled and followed.
Seeing this scene, Susan Soros who followed behind sneered: "It's been so long, I didn't expect that he still didn't give up."
"A family fortune of tens of billions of dollars , let alone Robert, even I would be reluctant to part with him," William Soros said quietly.
Glancing at him, Susan smiled and said: "If you really want to fight with Alexander, I don't mind supporting you."
The old Soros had two wives.
Robert and Jonathan are sons from his first wife.
William, Alexander and Susan are the descendants of the second wife.
So, the relationship between the three is closer than Robert and Jonathan.
"Forget it, I'm just an ordinary university teacher, I don't understand finance." William shrugged.
His own family knows his own affairs.
I don’t have that ability. Even if I want to compete, I can’t compete with Alexander.
Turn your head.
"Susan, if you'd like, maybe dad would consider it."
His sister has a doctorate in law from Harvard and is particularly good at business litigation.
Is the real elite. "Forget it, the old man is so old-fashioned. With Robert, Jonathan and Alexander, he will not pass the Quantum Fund to me. ... Let's go, a new French restaurant has opened on Beacon Street, I heard it tastes good."
William nodded and followed.
——
Gudu...
The purple-red wine rolled into the glass, reflecting the sunlight outside the window, and had a rather crystal clear taste.
Jonathan Soros picked up the wine glass, gestured from a distance and took a sip.
"Robert, you are too impatient. You should know the old man's character very well. He will not give you the Quantum Fund."
Robert Soros took a sip of red wine.
"Of course I know, but I just won't let it go.
After the failure of Quantum Fund's investment in Xiangjiang, if we hadn't tried our best to appease customers and stabilize the company, it would have been impossible for Quantum Fund to achieve its later glory.
< br>In the end, we paid so much, but we were deprived of the inheritance by that bastard playboy of Alexander?
Why?”
Jonathan sighed, “Robert, I Although he dislikes Alexander, it is fair to say that he is a very capable person, and he also knows how to please his father
It is almost impossible for you to seize the inheritance from him. ”
Robert fell silent.
Of course he knew that the possibility was unlikely, otherwise he would not have forced her to have an abortion directly in the ward today.
Took a long breath .
“Jonathan, I’m ready to give up. As you said, it is impossible for the old man to hand over the Quantum Fund to me, and I don’t want to wait any longer in vain. ”
"Robert, come to AU Fund. Let's work together to build it into a better hedge fund than Quantum Fund, proving that father giving up on us was the biggest mistake he made in his life!" Jonathan encouraged.
After taking a deep look at his brother.
"Thank you, Jonathan. But Mr. Dalio from Bridgewater Associates is ready to give me a chance, and I have promised him."
Now in the global hedge fund world.
Hanhua Pacific Fund is definitely the number one without a doubt.
Especially after winning this duel with Quantum Fund, no one can doubt his status.
Second only to Pacific Fund is Bridgewater Associates.
Being able to enter such a company is the dream of countless fund managers around the world.
“That’s such a pity.”
“Although we can’t work together, we can work together on investment.” Robert smiled.
Jonathan nodded and asked curiously: "What conditions did Bridgewater give you to host a fund independently?"
"Yes. They gave me US$30 million."
" When you were at Quantum Fund, you have accumulated rich investment experience and can definitely control more funds," said Jonathan.
Robert shook his head.
“The results obtained at the Quantum Fund do not belong to us in the eyes of others.”
Jonathan knew what he meant.
Under the wings of Quantum Fund, no matter how great their achievements are, they will always be considered to be guided by George Soros.
Now they need to prove themselves first.
“This condition is already very good. When some fund managers of public funds switched to private equity, the amount of funds they controlled was not as large as mine.
And with the endorsement of Bridgewater, I will be independent in the future When it comes out, it will be easier to attract investment.”
The connections and resources obtained from large funds are far beyond what small funds can match.
Even if he leaves Bridgewater in the future, this experience will already help him.
Jonathan nodded.
After picking up the wine glass and taking a sip, he said, "Have you considered going to Hanhua?"
Robert's face changed slightly and he said calmly: "Jonathan, you know the grudge between the old man and Golden Caesar. The dragon-slaying plan is known to the whole world
If we had any contact with Hanhua, the old man would be really angry. "
"Father only has interests in his eyes! "
Jonathan smiled.
"What conditions did Golden Caesar promise you? "
"If you or I go to Hanhua, each of us can be responsible for a $100 million hedge fund, 20% of the fund's income share, and unlimited investment rights for all funds under Hanhua.
If two of us went together, then each of us could be responsible for a $200 million hedge fund, other things remaining the same. "
Robert's eyes flashed.
"You agreed? "
"I'm still thinking about it. "
Jonathan had a smile on his face, but there was a cold look in his eyes.
consider?
It’s a lie.
He went to Hanhua, and the old man was furious. He would never have the chance to inherit the property of the Quantum Fund and the Soros family.
If Alexander is squeezed out by then, won’t everything in the Soros family belong to him?
"Haha, Hanhua's conditions are indeed excellent. I will think about it when I go back and then reply to you."
Jonathan took out a business card and handed it over.
"This is Golden Caesar's phone number. You can call him and inquire before making a decision."
Robert looked at the gold-plated business card on the table, with an inexplicable flash in his eyes.
Take it over and look at it in your hand.
“Is this Golden Caesar’s mobile phone number?”
"No, it's just his secretary's phone number. I can't get Kim Caesar's personal cell phone."
After fiddling with it for a while, Robert put the card away.
Looking at this, Jonathan's eyes flashed with a hint of joy.
Pick up the wine glass.
"Robert, let's toast to your future as a great hedge fund owner."
The former held up his wine glass with a smile on his face and a high-spirited manner.
"Cheers to the Beyond Quantum Fund."
Ding...
Amidst the light collision, the bright red wine was mixed with each other's conspiracy and drank.
