Vol 2 Chapter 733: Engaged!

Chapter 733 is at war!

In 2003, April 2nd, the second day of April Fools’ Day, everyone who had just awakened from the various absurd jokes on April Fool’s Day realized that the world seemed to be suddenly turbulent, undercurrents, and there seemed to be something big. It's going to happen.

First, the Japanese stock market suffered heavy losses, and then the U.S. stock market suffered a slight decline. There were frequent rumors of unfavorable high-tech stocks, and there were signs of frequent large-scale capital transfers. These clues seem to predict major events.

At 7:30 in the morning in Tokyo time, Japan, half an hour before the market opened, Sony suddenly announced a high-profile feat of leading Sony to create a new glorious feat. President Nobuyuki Idei resigned because of Sony’s huge losses last year and the strong decline in stocks. It also announced that Howard Stringer, head of Sony, will serve as chairman and chief executive officer.

The announcement made the industry shocked. Originally yesterday, after Sony announced its 2002 financial statements, after a huge loss of US$916 million, Sony stocks made a strong attack. Nobuyuki Idei was once rated as the most successful ceo instantly reduced to the worst ceo. But the outside world never thought that Sony would move so quickly. It only replaced the CEO overnight and hired the first foreign leader in Sony's history.

Howard Stringer, once served as the president of the cbs group, tele-t and other companies that also incur huge losses, have also announced that they will integrate the company's non-performing assets and reorganize. The market is bullish. Although the 17 companies headed by Sony had huge deficits before, the market was still very optimistic for the bold reform of the next day. Of course, whether it can be effective or not depends on the future. But at least for now, investors' confidence in various companies has been stabilized.

Later, when the outside world had not digested the decisions of Sony and other companies, the Minister of Finance of the Japanese Government also announced that it would lower the bank interest rate from 6% to 5.5%, a 0.5% drop. At the same time, it also announced that the huge losses of major companies this time, if it causes a disaster in the Japanese stock market, the government will fund the rescue. At the same time, he called on many Japanese investors to be optimistic about the Japanese stock market and not to be pessimistic and actively sell.

This series of actions greatly stimulated the confidence of Japanese investors. It is believed that the huge losses of major companies yesterday will be an opportunity for major companies to reform, especially the Japanese government's rescue behavior. The overall decline yesterday will be only a short-term phenomenon.

"It's interesting, there really is a problem!" Soros looked at the Japanese stock market with an intriguing smile in a corner of the United States.

At this time, the Hong Kong Jockey Club Li Zekai and others in the long-term reserved box. Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng have already been seated, watching the Japanese stock market and the U.S. and European stock markets that are closely linked to Japan. All three were taken aback when they heard the news. They did not expect that the Japanese government would act so quickly.

"Brother Feng, the Japanese government has frequently issued various policies. It seems that we are afraid that we will make things bigger and cause more unpredictable consequences." Tang Jiacheng listened to the news from the Japanese side and said in an analysis.

However, the Japanese government moves so fast, they probably have no chance to intervene. After all, with good news from many sources, once the market opens, Sony's stock price will definitely rise, especially when the confidence of Japanese investors comes back, they will only have to sigh, and even the money they made before will be in vain.

Lin Feng nodded. Regarding the news from Japan, there is also a wave of worry. Japan’s move this time was too fast. It just fell a limit and it rescued the market. This was beyond the expectations of most investors. Generally speaking, in this situation, those speculators can only lose money. Fortunately, Lin Feng was prepared.

Lin Feng looked at his watch, 6:45 Beijing time, 7:45 Tokyo time, Japan. Buffett should make his remarks on the Japanese stock market!

Sure enough, at this moment, news came from the United States. A Wall Street Journal reporter interviewed Buffett, the "stock god", and conducted a brief interview on the Japanese stock market yesterday.

"In my opinion, due to the huge losses in Japanese blue-chip stocks headed by Sony, this is the first time that Sony has made such a huge loss in 25 years, and its profit items, such as LCD TV boards, mobile communications departments, and movies The investment in Shanghai has suffered heavy losses, each with losses of more than hundreds of millions of dollars, and the market share has also been surrendered, and it has also become a chaser from the original leader. I speculate that it will be difficult for Sony to turn losses into profits in the next 2-3 years. After all, Sony’s flagship product, the "ps2" global market that brought the highest profit of 2.5 billion US dollars last year has been saturated, and it is difficult to create brilliance again. And now that Microsoft’s "xbox" is added, I am afraid that Sony will develop follow-up products. This puts heavy pressure on Sony’s funds. Moreover, there are as many as 17 companies that have caused huge losses in the Japanese stock market this time. In my opinion, the Japanese stock market will continue to fall in the future. Investors should choose carefully!" Buffett said worriedly.

After Buffett’s words came, Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng clapped and shouted. Although the Japanese government made frequent tricks, it was not as good as Buffett’s brief speculation. Because he is not someone else, he is the "stock god" Buffett. And Buffett never plays futures, which is also known to everyone. Therefore, Buffett's remarks definitely did not deliberately discredit the Japanese stock market and take advantage of the suspicion of robbery.

In particular, Buffett's last remarks calling on investors to invest with caution, even more chilled the hearts of all investors. The stock gods all say that they are careful to invest, can they still invest in disorder? What's more, Sony's huge losses are indeed true. This is a matter of iron and steel, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Although the CEO has been changed and several measures have been introduced, can it really save Sony from a slump?

In this mentality of worrying about gains and losses, the Japanese stock market opened.

At 8:00 Tokyo time, Tang Jiacheng received news from Abby-short selling.

Now that the market just opened, the entire market is still waiting and watching. After all, the money in the hands of investors is not windy, they are all hard-earned by themselves, and it is impossible to invest blindly. Need to be cautious! Especially in the case of unpredictable market prospects, we must be more cautious.

Therefore, under this circumstance, Abby hopes to be able to sell short with all his strength, giving a heavy blow to the market and tilting the balance in investors' minds.

auzw.com Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng looked at each other and took a slight breath.

After the three of them dispersed last night, the more I thought about Lin Feng's "gift", the more uncomfortable I felt. Originally everyone was friends, sitting on an equal footing, but Lin Feng's great "gift" was sent down. They invisibly felt that they were half shorter than Lin Feng, and they all felt that they couldn't stand up straight in front of Lin Feng.

Therefore, after they dispersed, after a whole night of deliberation, they decided to take a fight with Lin Feng this time. The big deal is all over again. By then, the four of them are brothers who live and die together. Relying on the ingenuity and network of the four, Li Zekai believes that the four can immediately stand up again. Moreover, Lin Feng's miracle has been verified more than once, and this time should be another moment to witness the miracle.

In the end, Li Zekai put together 520 million US dollars, Tang Jiacheng put together 100 million US dollars, Zheng Zhiheng put together 230 million US dollars, and the three put together 800 million US dollars. Of course, this is by no means all the net worth of the three. If all the net worth is counted, Li Zekai alone can gather nearly 2 billion US dollars. But if you break the boat like that, you must be known by the elders behind it, and things will be troublesome at that time, and there will be many unnecessary variables.

Therefore, the trio secretly raised a total of 800 million US dollars in cash. This is also fortunate for the three of them to come from wealthy families and have a good reputation. Otherwise, it would be an impossible task to raise 800 million US dollars in cash overnight.

"Sell it!" Li Zekai's faint voice was filled with excitement and tremor.

Tang Jiacheng nodded, shaking his hands slightly, and continued to short capc. Sega and other stocks each had 200,000 lots, costing US$10 million in principal (the actual expenditure was US$100 million, but according to the rules of futures trading, only one-tenth of the capital was required. Gold will do).

The Japanese market is buzzing. In the beginning, someone was sniping forcefully, which is not good. The stock price also suddenly began to decline slightly, one yen, one yen decline.

Abby Cohen in the distance was also taken aback. She didn't expect that Li Zekai and others would have such abundant funds, and the market would open so fiercely. You know this battle has just begun. Li Zekai and others were able to throw 10 million US dollars in principal at the opening of the market. Obviously, the funds were extremely strong. That being the case, Abby Cohen is also unambiguous, this time Lin Feng's funds are unprecedentedly abundant. With her contacts in major investment banks around the world and Lin Feng's reputation, it is really simple to want to get a loan. This time, Abby Cohen has already prepared enough funds under Lin Feng's full authorization.

Therefore, Abby Cohen once again shorted 500,000 lots on Sony and also short 500,000 lots on other high-tech stocks. At the same time, however, Abby Cohen began short selling "Tokyo Electric Power" in small pennies, and "Tokyo Electric Power" is today's focus.

With the short selling of Li Zekai and others, and the continuous attack of Abby Cohen, the stock prices of Sony and other companies suddenly fell again. Sony's stock price slowly fell to 52 US dollars from yesterday's closing price of 54.19 US dollars.

This naturally caused repeated exclamations from the market. However, unlike yesterday’s panic, although the market exclaimed today, investors’ confidence was significantly higher, and they continued to wait and see in their currency holdings.

Abby Cohen frowned. It seems that the actions of the Japanese government and the actions of major companies have indeed played a huge role in the market. Given the huge losses of 17 companies, market confidence is still so strong. If there was such a big sell order yesterday, Sony's stock price would have plummeted.

"Lin, have you got the evidence of the'Tokyo Electric Power' nuclear power plant accident?" Abby Cohen called and asked. This is of great importance. Without this report, I am afraid I can only prepare to avoid the limelight today.

"Well, don't worry, it's already eye-catching. I will definitely get it today." Lin Feng said. Early this morning, Erisa Kazama called and told Lin Feng that evidence of the accident at the "Tokyo Electric Power" nuclear power plant had already become apparent. An insider at the time had sufficient evidence to prove the accident at the "Tokyo Electric Power" nuclear power plant, but the price was 10 million U.S. dollars.

This made Kazama Erisa extremely hesitant. The price is too high. However, the other party will never counter-offer. Obviously, he is also very human, knowing the importance of the evidence in his hand. Therefore, Kazama draws Risa and asks Lin Feng helplessly in the early morning, and inquires about Lin Feng's handling opinions.

"Erisha, no matter how much money you have, you must win it. But remember, you must have conclusive evidence, not vague evidence." Lin Feng issued a death order.

However, the witness was not in Tokyo, and asked Erisa Kazama to exchange evidence with cash. After hanging up the phone in the early morning, Erisa Kazama brought $10 million in cash to exchange evidence. This cash was temporarily withdrawn from the vault of the Japanese branch of the “Second World” by Kazama Erisa. After counting the cash in her hands and finding someone to piece it together, she finally made up a total of 10 million US dollars in cash. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't make it!

Lin Feng looked at his watch and estimated that he should be getting evidence soon.

Abby Cohen nodded. In this way, then you can let go of it. Now we have to "lead the snake out of the hole" first, lead all parties to the back, and then throw out their own assassin.

"Big short selling of high-tech stocks, small pens and slowly shorting'Tokyo Electric Power'." Abby Cohen delivered the order again.

Tang Jiacheng was stunned, and didn't talk about Abby Cohen's short-selling "Tokyo Electric Power" blue chip stock, which is not a high-tech stock. However, thinking of Lin Feng's expression yesterday, Tang Jiacheng did not hesitate and began to short-sell many high-tech stocks in Japan. At the same time, he was short-selling "Tokyo Electric Power" one by one without a trace.

"Hmph, you finally figured out a move!" Sony and other companies, who had been waiting for a long time, sneered and began to show their sharp teeth. This time, they must let these speculators who want to take advantage of the fire to return in a big defeat!
