Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Hearing this, Giuseppe Eskenazi breathed a suffocation, and a burst of blood rushed to his head.

"damn it!"

He couldn't help but cursed bitterly.

Although there was speculation before the investigation that the enemy would find a way to hide, but when the matter was confirmed, he was still a little unacceptable, and the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent.

Ah! Now that Xia Yu has decided to do it, and it is still in the UK that is not his own territory, of course he will not grant authority to others.

In order to clear the relationship, Xia Yu asked George Berkeley to come forward, and George Berkeley asked his loyal subordinates to come forward through a temporary worker of another shell company, and found five people who did not know each other in private. Bad gamblers with credit problems don't care about credit at all, they are willing to do anything as long as they have money.

And what Xia Yu paid was only five deposits to enter the Sotheby's auction house, each of which cost 10,000 pounds, and only spent 50,000 pounds.

Of course, the 50,000 pounds was a waste, but compared to the profit of shorting, the 50,000 pounds is a drizzle.

Giuseppe Eskenazi took a deep breath and calmed himself down. With a cold face, he asked his cousin, "Robert, what's the situation with that Chinese named Huashengshi?"

There was a problem with the Chinese cultural relics he offered for auction. Giuseppe calmed down the day before yesterday and immediately suspected the prosperity of the world.

After all, because of the sinister deeds he did, there was a ghost in his heart. If something went wrong at this time, he would inevitably suspect Hua Shengshi with a malicious attitude.

What's more, he deliberately competed with Huashengshi for Chinese cultural relics before, but Huashengshi directly backed away and didn't react at all, which seemed very strange, but nothing happened before, so he didn't care too much.

Robert Eskenazy shook his head again in the disappointed eyes of his cousin: "I asked people to investigate, he has stayed in his store most of the day, and even his buddies rarely go out, Nothing suspicious was found."

They did not know that Xia Yu acquired Zhenbao Pavilion. After Xia Yu acquired it, it was still managed by Huashengshi. The change of ownership only needs to be signed on paper. Zhenbao Pavilion is not a listed company. externally announced.

Giuseppe Eskenazy looked at Robert Eskenazy fixedly, seeing the burning face on the latter's face, and lowered his head in shame.

"Hey……"

"You can't relax, continue to check, as soon as there is key information, let me know immediately!"

"That's it, I'll take care of things first."

After sending Robert Eskenazi away, Giuseppe Eskenazi immediately convened the company's executives and directors, intending to brainstorm again to solve the current difficulties.

After all, Eskenazy Co., Ltd. is a listed company. Although most of the equity is in the Eskenazy family, the company still has foreign shareholders.

Now that Eskenazy Co., Ltd. is on fire, and the stock price has plummeted. Some shareholders are not satisfied. He must appease them and use their strength to tide over the difficulties.

External troubles have been difficult to solve, and there must be no more internal worries!

...

At the headquarters of Bright Fund Corporation, Xia Yu sat on a chair in the chairman's office and looked at the company's operations. This was submitted by George Berkeley after he came to the company early this morning.

After reading it, Xia Yu closed the document happily.

Through the operating data during this period, Xia Yu can see that the company's development momentum is very good, and George Berkeley did not disappoint him.

George Berkeley used his previous contacts to allow Bright Fund to build a good partnership with a number of large banks, borrowing a total of 50 million pounds, and then set up a separate foreign exchange market operation department to leverage the USD/GBP exchange rate.

In the past two months, the pound has been appreciating against the US dollar, rising from 2.121 to 2.175. The benefit of the Bright Fund has reached 22 million pounds, which is very impressive.

And this is George Berkeley's self-expression,

Xia Yu didn't mention him before, this is what makes Xia Yu most satisfied.

An elite talent who can make money for him without him worrying about it is really rare!

In addition, Bright Fund's acquisition plan is also progressing smoothly, acquiring a 3.72% stake in Standard Chartered Bank and a 4.21% stake in Royal Bank of Scotland from the stock market through a number of offshore shell companies.

One-twelfth of the two-year plan time has passed, although the equity acquired by each bank is less than one-twentieth of the total share capital, but when you think about the number of shares that are distributed to ordinary shareholders and small and medium-sized investment institutions, you can see A lot of equity has been acquired.

"Sissi, you go and notify George and let him come."

"OK!"

After a while, George Berkeley, in a suit and leather shoes, came to the office in high spirits.

"George, sit down and talk!"

Signaling George Berkeley to sit on the sofa, Xia Yu also got down from his seat and sat opposite him.

"I looked at the data during this period. You did a good job and didn't let me down. Keep it up. You will receive a super big bonus at the end of the year!"

Xia Yu didn't ask him first, but instead praised with a smile.

George Berkeley smiled, bowed slightly to Xia Yu, and thanked: "Boss, thank you for your generosity! This is what I should do!"

Xia Yu smiled and didn't say more. Anyway, his actions would give the strongest proof by the end of the year.

"How is the operation of Sotheby's and Eskenazie Ltd.?"

"Boss, through the preparations for short selling in the early stage, the floating profit has now reached 19.6 million pounds, of which the short selling Sotheby's auction house has a floating profit of 15.4 million pounds, and the short selling Eiskenner Qi Ltd has a surplus of £4.2 million."

George Berkeley immediately reported several sets of data.

After handing over the operation to Xia Yu early in the morning, George Berkeley stayed in the short-selling group dedicated to the two major companies. These data were all the latest statistics. At this time, when Xia Yu asked, he was just able to smoothly answer up.

Xia Yu's mind came to the extent of the decline of the two companies. Combined with the data from the George Berkeley newspaper, he immediately calculated a rough figure. Bright Fund shorted the two companies, and the stake in the bet was about 20%.

It is precisely because of this that the two companies have fallen by nearly 100 million pounds, and the Bright Fund has earned nearly 20 million pounds.

However, 20% of the equity is not a small amount. After all, excluding the stocks held by the controlling shareholders and actual shareholders, and the stocks remaining in the hands of ordinary shareholders, the equity in the hands of the institution is at most 30%. , even less.

To be able to find two-thirds of the 30% of the equity to bet on, the ratio is already quite high, and without a certain ability to fool, it is really difficult to bring these financial elites into the ditch.

From the layout to the present, it has only been half a month, but it has made a profit of nearly 20 million pounds, which is very scary but seems normal.

After all, the profit of shorting is better than making more money.

Xia Yu knew that in the U.S. financial market, the two giants, the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family, liked shorting the most, and in order to grab profits, they would use all kinds of resources and even hack.

In the previous life, many large companies in Huaxia were listed on the US stock market. Many large companies were hacked, and they made billions of dollars in profits. How can the big players on Wall Street not be moved?

Even the big A shares of later generations... With the memories of those bigwigs, Xia Yu is very aware of the truths that were not known to the general public from 2015 to 2016.

It's sighing to think about.

Forget it, anyway, the previous life has nothing to do with him, and in this life, his butterfly is getting stronger and stronger, the process of China and the world has already changed, and the future has long been elusive.

Xia Yu shook his head, cleared irrelevant thoughts from his mind, looked at George Berkeley, and asked three times in a row:

"How many shares have been sold, how many shares have we been gambling on, and how many have we acquired in the market?"
