Chapter 794 Doomed to be an Unsettled Thanksgiving

"...Okay, I'm relieved to leave it to you, Emily, thank you."

After listening to Li Xiaoying's explanation on the phone, Andy was also a little embarrassed. He knew the national conditions better than Li Xiaoying, so he naturally knew that these four things could only be returned to the original owners before trying to get in touch with them.

After hanging up the phone, Andy walked out of the study. Just as he went downstairs, he heard the laughter of his family in the living room.

"What's wrong?"

Ivana, with a happy smile on her face, moved slightly aside, made room for Andy to sit down, and explained with a smile: "We are talking about the two turkeys that were pardoned by the president." May " and "Flower". After being "pardoned," the two turkeys flew first class to Walt Disney World, where they will be guests of honor at the Walt Disney World Thanksgiving Day Parade in Florida. Don't worry about being slaughtered , will retire and spend the rest of his life in a zoo at an amusement park."

Andy curled his lips noncommittally at this. The names of the two turkeys happened to mean the "Mayflower" on which they came to the New World that year. He was full of sarcasm for President Xiao Feixie's speech at the White House. "Oh, and thank you for our great agriculture and incredibly strong economy..." quipped.

Old Smith, who was smoking a cigar with Andy's grandfather, Li Dakang, chuckled and shook his head. He didn't care about his grandson's mocking of President Xiao Feixie. After all, scolding the president in the United States is reserved for everyone.

"What do you think of Paulson's proposal to Congress to reinject super funds into distressed mortgage securities?"

Hearing Grandpa's question, Andy's eyes lit up slightly. You must know that he doesn't have those mortgage securities in his hand. Based on the idea that I have no money to make, and you don't want to make it easy, he shrugged and said: "Euro The exchange rate with the U.S. dollar has reached 1:1.48. The economic forecast report released by the Federal Reserve on the 20th lowered the U.S. economic growth rate from the original expectation of 2.5% to 2.75% to 1.8% to 2.0%. .5%. In fact, it is still a bit too optimistic. As for whether to reinject capital into the super fund, hehe, those mortgage securities are still in the hands of some Wall Street speculative companies.”

The whole family couldn't help but rolled their eyes, even Ivana smiled and shook her head, now the whole America knows that Andy has been emphasizing on his blog and Facebook that the subprime mortgage crisis will bring about a global financial turmoil Risk is often ridiculed by many Wall Street financial experts.

After all, although the U.S. stock market has fallen, people have just experienced a big bull market in which the Dow rose to more than 14,000 points. The White House, the Treasury Department, and the Federal Reserve are all saying that the subprime mortgage crisis has been effectively controlled, and the U.S. economy will not Something like fatally affected.

In this regard, Andy will not argue about anything. His original intention of doing this is to put a layer of protective clothing on himself.

Sometimes, the sudden appearance of achievements that are too monstrous will be unacceptable to ordinary people.

But now, no matter how much profit Andy will get from the global financial tsunami in the future, everyone can look at it rationally and regretfully. After all, he has seen the future long ago and told the whole world, Nima, if you don’t believe it, there is nothing you can do about it up.

As for whether there is anyone who believes it, or whether anyone has benefited or made a lot of money because of Andy's warning, it is not within the scope of Andy's consideration. He only needs to confirm that he can make money safely and steadily. It was the other party's luck to get on a ride.

His family members naturally believed in Andy's judgment, and they all avoided risks according to his suggestions. However, they couldn't laugh or cry about Andy's nickname of "the world's biggest short seller".

"Since this is the case, then I don't need to make any effort. In order to prevent President Xiao Feixie from continuing to use the "recess appointment power", the Congress will use the Thanksgiving recess to bypass the Senate to appoint new government officials.

The donkey partisans in the Senate came up with a new trick, that is, during the adjournment period, a donkey partisan senator is on duty every three days to preside over the meeting for 30 seconds, so as to bypass the constitutional definition of congressional adjournment.

Paulson also wants the most help to get the proposal passed, but since you said there are people up for sale, let them hold it, the 100 billion super fund is just over a month away , Just spent almost all the money, which is really big enough. Since Wall Street caused the problem, let Wall Street solve it by itself. "

Hearing his grandfather's decision, Andy blinked his eyes a few times and heaved a sigh of relief. What he wanted was to delay Wall Street's application for rescue, so that government officials and Federal Reserve officials who still didn't believe that it would trigger a financial tsunami continued. If you are unresponsive, just wait silently for the arrival of January next year.

During the Thanksgiving holiday, there was a lively scene of celebration across the United States, and New York even held a Thanksgiving Day parade. Ten thousand people participated enthusiastically, attracting millions to watch the 81st Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade with floats and balloons.

Andy in Washington also watched the TV report with his family, and all businesses in the United States also began to prepare for the "Black Friday" on the 23rd the next day. From this day, many Americans will start Christmas shopping. Therefore, this day will also determine to a large extent whether the merchant's annual income will be red for deficit or black for profit.

According to the forecast of the National Retail Federation on the 21st, this "Black Friday" will have 133 million Americans going out for purchases. In order to compete for this huge shopping group, merchants try their best to hope that customers will buy their own products.

Festive, lively, a scene of prosperity.

A sumptuous dinner, not delicious roast turkey, full of harmonious and warm family dinner, champagne, red wine, cigars, coffee, fire and beautiful piano performance.

Everyone sat around the burning fireplace, swayed the red wine in their hands, and quietly listened to the beautiful piano piece "Autumn Whispers" played by Andy. With fascinated eyes flashing in his cheeks, he looked at his boyfriend who was intoxicated in the music while playing.

Because of his happiness and satisfaction, Andy inevitably drank a little too much, but this slightly drunken state made him more relaxed and free. After the performance of "Autumn Whispers", his family and girlfriend gave him warm applause.

And he also seemed to be unsatisfied, looking at Ivana's pretty face, rosy with wine, he couldn't help but lightly landed his fingers on the keys.

After the deep prelude, there is a beautiful follow-up. . .

"In my arms, in your eyes, where the spring breeze is intoxicating, where the grass is green. The moonlight sprinkles love on the lake, and the bonfire between two people illuminates the whole night..."

A song "Lake Baikal" re-written by Andy in English echoed perfectly in the living room under his deep and magnetic voice, and Ivana had a happy expression on her pretty face, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons. Water mist has risen in the shape of the eyes, and the spring is thick.

For the second time, Andy chose to sing in Chinese. For grandpa, grandma and mother who can understand Chinese, it will undoubtedly create a sense of imagery with the beautiful lyrics.

Grandma's eyes were full of infinite tenderness, she put her hand on the back of Grandpa's hand, and held them gently, as if decades of past events could be seen in each other's eyes.

A piece of "Lake Baikal" touched my family and Ivana, so that night, Ivana was lingering, and Andy worked hard as his old scalper, working diligently until the early morning , The two fell asleep hugging each other tiredly.

Everything looked so beautiful and happy, but God seemed to be jealous of Andy's ease and comfort, and decided to give him a brick!

"Da da..."

The 24-hour private phone on the bedside table started humming non-stop, and the vibrating desktop made a rattling sound.

Andy, who was in a deep sleep, opened his sleepy eyes suddenly, let go of the 33D he was holding tightly in his hand, worried about waking Ivana in his arms, carefully took out his arm, lifted the quilt, picked up the nightgown from the side and put it on. On, grabbed the phone and looked at the caller ID.

With a sudden jump in my heart, I walked to the door with big strides, opened the door and walked out of the bedroom, and when I closed the door casually, I answered the phone.

"Andy, my villa has been stolen!"
