America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 284: Earning $3.964 billion

At this moment, little Laura felt that Abel was as weird as Soros.

When one is conducting investment operations, he dares to let the other watch.

Another top financial tycoon is acting like a child at this time, preferring to temporarily lose his freedom to watch here. This is outrageous.

Little Laura thought to herself.

At this time, Abel actually smiled and said to her:

"My dear, let's go back. Don't you still want to take a nap? Let's find a place to take a nap."

Little Laura wanted to say no.

At this time, is it appropriate to say such things and do such things?

What time is it now? The floating loss just reported has exceeded US$300 million.

Little Laura didn't know if her father could afford such a large amount of money!

This kind of ultra-exaggerated financial transaction involves hundreds of billions of dollars, and the real amount of funds is also 10 billion U.S. dollars.

Is it possible not to watch at the scene?

This is an exaggerated jump of 60 to 70 million US dollars at any time.

Sometimes hundreds of millions of dollars can be lost in just a few minutes.

At this time, he actually said that he was going to take a nap.

Little Laura couldn't understand.

But she saw that Abel was resolute. Soros once again looked like he was going to die here.

She could only say softly: "Okay, let's go."

Little Laura was taken to a five-star luxury hotel next to the gold market by Abel.

Due to the need for this investment, Abel had already sent people to open many rooms here.

Abel took little Laura and stayed in one of them.

Next, naturally, there is a part that cannot be described.

afterwards.

London time.

Half past five in the afternoon.

Most of the trading hours on the European gold trading market, or other stock exchanges, have ended.

But this time is usually when the market in North America starts to become active.

Because there is also a certain time difference between Europe and North America.

We chatted for more than an hour and took a nap for more than an hour.

Abel was lying on top of the huge Simmons, in a daze.

Not long after rinsing, little Laura, who went outside to answer a phone call, came out wearing a bathrobe with a nervous face:

"Abel, let's go to the gold market quickly. David called just now. London gold's drop today is -1.02%, which is a drop of 25 points."

One point is $62 million.

10 points is 620 million.

At 25 points, US$1.55 billion has been lost.

The total margin is only US$10 billion.

In just a few hours, I lost almost 1/6.

She regretted that she should have been so weak and complied with Abel's request to be five years old together.

Take a nap and lose 1.55 billion US dollars.

1.55 billion US dollars. Little Laura doesn’t know if her father has that much money.

She felt that even the Shrub family would be devastated by losing so much money at once.

In other words, take a nap by yourself.

Abel's loss was a loss that devastated the Bush family.

How can little Laura remain calm?

Seeing her cute look.

Abel chuckled, stepped forward, took her into his arms, fell down on the sofa next to Simmons, and said softly:

"Don't think so much, it'll be okay."

He patiently explained that in this market with a daily trading volume of more than five trillion US dollars, very few bookmakers can control the trend.

Falling is the general trend, and rising is also the general trend.

Especially this kind of sudden short-term rise without any reason is the easiest thing to attract leeks to follow suit.

When institutions see this situation, many will choose to keep up.

If there are more people doing the same thing, it will become a general trend.

Before the great power is exhausted, it will be unstoppable.

Little Laura didn't understand this. She was temporarily confused because Abel had suffered too much.

Even if the money is not hers, it still belongs to Abel.

She is now Abel's girlfriend, future fiancée, and future wife.

The relationship has become so close that it is inseparable.

She is naturally concerned and confused.

Fortunately, now she saw Abel was so calm.

As a financial layman, she also has the benefits of being a financial layman.

That is easier to appease.

Because she didn't understand the danger and criticality of the situation.

Abel had always been calm, and she gradually calmed down, curling up like a kitten and rubbing against his chest.

She likes this atmosphere very much.

I like this feeling very much.

After waiting for a while, little Laura couldn't help but ask: "What is the general trend?"

"People, a group of people, either actively or passively, promote something to happen."

After a brief moment of tenderness, the two came to the living room and ate some more food.

Then, a beeping sound came from a temporarily installed fax machine in the corner of the living room.

Little Laura stood up and went over to take out the paper printed by the fax machine, and found that there was a lot of international news on it.

She came over and said, "It's some news, all financial news, from David."

Abel looked at the contents, smiled on his face, and patted her buttocks, "Go change clothes, and go to the trading house later."

"Okay." Little Laura nodded obediently.

Abel sat up straight, opened the fax news, and read the contents.

"The United States releases non-farm payroll data for June"

There was an increase of 300,000 people, compared with the expected 900,000 people, and the advance estimate was 1.1 million people. The actual announcement was far from the advance estimate and expectations, which was the smallest increase since last year. At the same time, the unemployment rate was announced to be 7.2%, a substantial increase.

After Abel read it, he smiled proudly. The whole article was almost written with good news in it.

At this time, London gold rose sharply, rising by 7 points, or 0.512%.

The sideways period lasted for a short time, and then more news was announced one after another.

"The inflation rate increased by 1.2% from the previous quarter"

"Fu Ahan Foundation Organization"

"East Asia Gouyu Island"

These international news were okay, but the news that followed one after another was a bit outrageous.

"A large-scale collapse occurred in the Rand gold mine in South Africa.."

"An armed attack occurred at a gold mine in the old town of Pueblo, Dominican Republic."

"Multiple fractures in Australia's East Cadia gold mine."

"Lihir Gold Mine, Papua New Guinea."

Report after report is filled with wealth codes that are good for gold.

It seems that in one day, troubles have occurred in all the world's famous gold mines, large and small.

But in fact, apart from the big international news mentioned above, it is revealed.

The following news about gold mining is true except for what happened in the Rand Gold Mine in South Africa.

The news of accidents in other gold mines is actually not a big deal if you look closely.

They are all situations where production can be resumed within a few days.

But investors in the market don’t know.

And a certain group of international speculators who concocted these news took advantage of this information gap.

In just a few hours, they swept the entire gold market and made tens of billions of dollars in profits.

We have to wait until tomorrow for several financial regulatory agencies in Europe and the United States to come forward and announce the news to stabilize gold prices.

It was then that everyone discovered that someone actually dared to commit such a big fraud.

Subsequent investigations even led to investigations by special departments in Europe and the United States such as the American ClA.

It was eventually discovered that it was a short-term arbitrage scam concocted by more than a dozen large-scale international speculators.

Then, eleven of these dozen people were arrested, and the remaining five were never found.

Later, in 2009, a reporter revealed that one of the speculators who could not be found was a former executive of Goldman Sachs.

Not long after the news was posted. The editor-in-chief and editor-in-chief of this newspaper had to resign.

Not long after, the reporter was shot eight times in the back at home and committed suicide.

The matter was settled at this point.

The gold rise against the trend that occurred in July 2001 was later called the "2001 gold fraud incident" by the international market.

This is something I won’t mention for the time being.

Only a financial genius like Abel, who has "genius", can know the trend of everything just by looking at it.

Then use their hands to earn a "small" amount of "pocket money" for yourself.

Soros didn't know this.

During this period of time, all the oil man's energy was focused on the Kingdom of Norway.

At this time, the price of London gold was stuck, like a wild horse sprinting upward wildly. Countless short sellers had no time to react, and their positions were liquidated and liquidated instantly.

Large-scale forced liquidation has caused gold prices to continue to rise.

London gold current price 289.82

Up 31.9

An increase of 13.925%.

Abel did not hesitate. When little Laura was getting dressed, he quickly issued orders through the special connection phone in advance:

"Clear the warehouse, clear as much as you can."

The traders in the trading room received the order and proceeded in an orderly manner, placing large sales orders one after another.

Conditions in the safe house were extremely hot at the time.

The 60 traders roared and vented their emotions while operating.

At one point, even Soros, who was watching the show, couldn't help but want to help.

It's just that there is no operating position provided for him, and the old guy is jumping excitedly next to him.

The wildly rising gold price suppressed the short potential brought about by Abel's fast sellers.

The daring international speculators can even concoct such large-scale fake news.

This proves that they have been preparing for a long time and the market will not recover in a short time.

London gold continues to rise.

In this way, Abel's floating profits can be easily turned into real profits.

When Abel and little Laura arrived at the trading house at around 6pm London time.

The atmosphere inside was lively and everyone's faces were filled with joy.

After reading the latest market news intelligence.

Abel felt that he still underestimated the methods of those audacious international speculators who wanted money rather than life.

After clearing out his 100 billion, the gold price only fell by 5 points and was quickly repaired.

After reading the situation report, little Laura was even more excited than Abel.

Because she discovered that it had only been 5 hours from afternoon to now.

Abel actually made a profit of US$3.964 billion from London gold.

Close to four billion dollars.

In five hours, Abel used 10 billion U.S. dollars to make almost 4 billion U.S. dollars!

Even little Laura, who doesn't understand finance, can't calm down with such staggering returns and profits.

Little Laura, Abel's little girlfriend.

She finally understood why her father, uncle, and even her grandfather, who were her idols, all valued Abel so much.

He even paid so much attention to it that he knew that Abel was very carefree and that he had many women outside.

They could all pretend they didn't see it and push themselves to Abel's side.

Little Laura knows it all now.

There is no other reason, just the talent that Abel showed in front of her after her personal experience today is enough.

Just this talent. It was enough for little Laura to understand everything and understand the good intentions of her own father, grandfather and uncle.

Because there is such a country that treats the global financial market as a bank cash machine.

You can raise billions and billions of sons-in-law at once

Not to mention the Shrub Family, there were only two great leaders.

Even the Bush family is really the Emperor of America. Then he would probably be able to tolerate the playfulness of this bush son-in-law.

You can make money, you can make a lot of money.

This ability is inherently stronger than anything else in America.

Stimulated by huge financial figures.

Little Laura, who had experienced it once, completely understood the key.

At this moment, even little Laura, who came from a wealthy family, was so excited.

The other traders and employees were naturally all flushed with joy.

Everyone in the trading room kept cheering and jumping to express their joy and relaxation after high tension.

At this time, Abel added fuel to the fire and said with a smile:

"Everyone in here can get a check for $50,000 today. This is my reward for you! Oh, George, you are here, okay. So do you."

The cheers intensified.

But for Abel's explicit refusal.

At this moment, someone must have rushed over, lifted him up and threw him into the sky, celebrating and cheering.

At this time, everyone present, including beautiful little Laura.

Everyone was shouting long live Abel.

Many times, the spirit and momentum of the superior are gradually cultivated in this way.

As the funds returned one after another, Abel and little Laura walked out of the gold trading market.

After the transaction ended, Soros, who was free, followed.

The old guy was very excited at this time and wanted to say something to Abel.

But Abel ignored him, because in Abel's mind, he and the Oilers might cooperate in the future, but he and Soros had never been on the same page.

Unlike Buffett, I can cooperate with Buffett many times.

Abel declined Soros's request to have dinner with him on the pretext that he and Laura were going to meet another guest.

To a certain extent, this is not an excuse.

But before that, he planned to go back to the hotel.

Xiao Lao, who was extremely excited because he saw Abel in person for the first time and made so much money at once, and his face was still a little red, was in the bedroom of the Duke's suite on the fifth floor of the LS Voy Hotel.

Nature is harmonious and harmonious.

Afterwards, Abel left her to rest in the room.

He himself went down to the sofa seating area next to the lobby on the first floor of the Savoy Hotel around eight o'clock.

Here, Alan Baker, the core member of the advisory group, was already waiting for him with several guests.

As soon as Abel came over, Allen and the others stood up, some shouted "BOSS" and some called "Mr. Smith".

Except for his own people, Abel didn't know who the others were yet, so he just smiled and said hello, then sat down and waited for Allen to speak.

Alan Baker said: "BOSS, please allow me to introduce you to all the gentlemen one by one."

Abel smiled and nodded.

Allen started working, pointing to the bald middle-aged white man nearest him and starting to introduce.

Abel looked over. With his iconic bald head and appearance, this guy looked like he was a native of England.

that's the truth.

"This is Mr. Aiden Buckley. He is the CEO and Chairman of Telegraph Media Group."

"Hello, Mr. Smith." Mr. Aiden Buckley stood up and shook hands with Abel.

Abel shook his hand and then glanced at the other guests on the sofa.

There were several others, and Abel decided to deal with them quickly.

This allowed Abel to get straight to the point with Aiden Buckley, "As you can see. Mr. Buckley, I want to acquire Telecom Media Group. Please give me a price."

Aiden Buckley was stunned for a moment.

The boss of the British "Daily Telegraph" will come here to meet Abel today.

I originally came here to discuss the acquisition with Abel.

A week ago, Smith Media in the United States. It has already issued an acquisition letter to Telecom Media Group.

In the UK, the Buckley family, the controller of Telecom Media Group, after internal discussions with the group’s shareholders.

Since the price seems to be quite suitable, I already have the intention to sell it.

Aiden Barkley is coming over today for that reason.

But Aiden Buckley felt that even if the man was interested in having a concubine between the two parties.

You didn't even exchange greetings at the beginning, you just said you wanted to buy it, right?

This is not like buying potatoes at the market. Just asking how much a pound of potatoes costs.

This is worth hundreds of millions of pounds and is ranked among the top national newspapers in the UK.

Aiden Buckley was a little uncomfortable with Abel's negotiating style.

It's just that I came here, of course, because I want to negotiate a good result.

Aiden Buckley hesitated for a moment and said:

"Mr. Smith, we already know what you mean. The Buckley family is willing to sell their shares. But Smith Media's offer of 320 million pounds, we feel is a bit low."

"How much do you want?"

How much? This is too straightforward.

Fortunately, before Aiden Buckley came, the group and the family had already discussed the price to be sold.

The family and shareholders came up with three prices.

They are 330 million, 350 million and 380 million respectively.

Aiden Buckley, who was authorized, could observe the situation on site and sell Telecom Media Group at these three prices.

The Buckley family and shareholders are a little tired of this newspaper group that is losing one to two million pounds every month.

Aiden Buckley originally wanted to bid a maximum price of 380 million pounds.

He just looked at Abel's expressionless face, as if he was going to chat with other guests next moment.

In addition, Aiden Buckley has already recognized him, and the identities of other Abel guests around him are almost the same as his own.

Some are even more influential than themselves and richer than their own families.

Aiden Buckley gritted his teeth and quoted the middle figure, "350 million pounds. Sir, we think this price will be more appropriate."

"very good."

Aiden Buckley saw Abel standing up and stretched out his hand towards him - "Deal, Mr. Buckley. You can draft the contract from now on. The price is 350 million pounds. This price is not expensive."

Aiden Buckley was stunned.

Then he was politely invited out by a professional from the advisory group.

Aiden Buckley didn't react until he left that circle.

that's all? Just sold it? 350 million pounds, no bargain?

How is this different from going to the market to buy potatoes? ?

If that were the case, I should have quoted 380 million pounds just now!

Aiden Buckley kind of wants to slap himself on the thigh.

But I think it's child's play.

A media group worth 350 million pounds and owns the UK's largest-selling high-end newspaper, has the negotiation been completed so quickly?

If he hadn't gotten the official acquisition letter from Smith Media soon.

Eden Buckley feels like he's been fooled.
