Chapter 176 "Red Cliff" is released
Xiangjiang Investment invested US$3 billion to short 20,000 lots of international crude oil, which seems like a lot, but the average daily trading volume of the NYMEX light sweet crude oil (WTI) futures contract in the United States in 2018 reached 1.5 million lots. In 2008, it was about 1.5 million lots.
1 million lots, so in the future it will be said that Zhang Yiwen is a big short seller of crude oil, mainly because the media collects money to do things.
Oh, no, it is impossible for the media to know that Zhang Yiwen is trading at this time. It is just that there is news that there is a big short seller in Xiangjiang who dares to short international crude oil. There will be no clear news that this is Zhang Yiwen in the future.
After all, it must be kept secret!
The average opening price of Xiangjiang Investment is about US$140. Because it uses 10 times leverage, the actual investment is about US$300 million. The oil price fluctuates by US$1, and the profit and loss fluctuates by US$20 million.
The principal of Xiangjiang Investment is 500 million US dollars, and the oil price will not be liquidated until the oil price rises to 165. In addition, the international oil price will not rise until the international oil price reaches 215 US dollars. Therefore, the risk of Xiangjiang Investment is very low this time compared with before.

Commodity prices plummeted, and global stock markets also slumped. BYD's share price fell to about HK$8. Qu Li was moved, and remembered that he could increase his holdings by 50 million shares, so he asked Vision Fund to acquire them in the open market. Unfortunately, market transactions were sluggish, and the trading volume in one day was
It's only 20 to 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Out of some jealousy and not wanting to lose to Buffett, Qu Li offered a purchase price of less than 8 Hong Kong dollars. Unfortunately, not many people were willing to transfer it, so let's wait.
When he came to the United States this time, Qu Li met with Spreadtrum’s CEO and executive president to discuss future development and the Vision Fund’s investment; he met with Google executives and Android head Andy Rubin; he purchased the product from Tesla.
A pure electric sports car requires the design requirements of a power battery; I invested in Twitter and Riot Games; I inspected Shopee; and I went to Facebook to meet with Zuckerberg and that was it.
What did you talk about with Zuckerberg? Of course, it was to make some efforts to promote the Beijin Olympics to the outside world. The international public opinion environment is very bad. He wanted Zuckerberg to share more "good Olympic news" with global users. As for YouTube
, the founder team is losing control of this video website, and Qu Li can do very little.
After Microsoft, Li Ka-shing and others invested US$375 million in Facebook, Qu Li's shareholding ratio has been less than 1%. The cooperation between Shopee and Facebook can be regarded as pure profit.
"I think the subprime mortgage crisis will bring huge changes to the financing market. It is necessary for Facebook to conduct a financing in the shortest possible time to cope with possible..." Qu Li did not want to buy shares, he was really kind, but it was a pity that Zach
Berg is not convinced:
"We have a professional team and the CFO has rich financing experience..."
"Well, Facebook is shopee's most important partner. Please notify me if you need it..."
"No problem!" Zuckerberg is very talkative.
When Qu Li saw this, he knew that he didn't believe it, so he didn't persuade him. Anyway, his goal had been achieved, so it didn't matter.
After flying from the United States to Beijin, "Red Cliff" has been released in major domestic theaters. The two soundtracks that Qu Li participated in were the first to be released. "Nijamena" is the opening music, and "Victory" is the ending egg. The lower part is the one that burns Red Cliff. Preview.
Director Chen's "Red Cliff" is not like Wu Baige in that it does not have too many modern novels. The purpose of the war is to unify and bring peace to the world. However, Cao Cao likes to "immigrate", causing the bones of the Central Plains to be exposed in the wild, and there is no place for thousands of miles. Rooster crows. Liu Bei wanted to revive the Han Dynasty, but Sun Quan did it for personal gain and did not want to lose his life, freedom, rights and wealth.
The one with the strongest personal ability is undoubtedly Cao Cao, the one with the most charisma is Liu Bei, and Sun Quan is regarded as the lord of defense. In the interpretation of Chen's film, from the tiger and leopard cavalry fighting against the invasion of nomads, Cao Cao discusses the southern expedition, Longzhong confronts, Xu Shu Zhuge Liang continued to appear, Jingzhou Mu surrendered, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry blitzed Liu Bei's troops, then Cao Cao sent an envoy to persuade Sun Quan to surrender, and Zhuge Liang's envoy to Soochow ended.
The movie is mainly based on "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", with some director's ideas added, but hidden in the fast pace, it was noticed by the audience who watched it repeatedly.
That's right, "Red Cliff" earned a box office of 150 million in four days after its release. Not to mention the rave reviews, it is considered an excellent commercial blockbuster with a score of 7.5 on Douban. In the second week, it received a box office of 120 million in seven days and 270 million in two weeks. Countless people hope that "Red Cliff" "Red Cliff" broke the domestic box office record of 360 million set by "Titanic" ten years ago.
It was against this background that Qu Li returned to Beijin on July 20 and was quickly arranged for an interview. The other actors ran for two weeks on the road and were all exhausted. Han Sanpin urged Qu Li several times on the phone, " The box office record of "Titanic" is simply a shame for domestic filmmakers, and few people care about it.
Even Zhang Guoshi, the director of the Olympic opening ceremony, took the time to watch "Red Cliff" and praised the movie. Of course there were many negative voices, but Director Chen has good connections in the industry, not to mention that he can reverse right and wrong like Wang Sunglasses. , it can confuse the aesthetics of actors and audiences, and at least it can stop negative comments from being posted for the time being.
When the reporter interviewed Qu Li, he naturally asked about the creation of the two soundtracks. Qu Li would not be shy about bragging.
"I have taken the time to learn to compose music in the past few years. I have some inspirations and fragments, but they are not systematic. After working with teacher **..."
"What was sung? I don't know. I originally wanted to add some meaningless humming, but then someone suggested singing a love song in ancient Chinese..."
""nijamena" is originally a love song that bravely breaks through feudal ethics..."
""Victory" has little to do with me, only the soprano part was my suggestion."
Reporters asked Qu Li many questions about "Red Cliff".
"I probably won't be involved in film production for a while..."
"How long is a short period of time?" the reporter asked
"After the company goes bankrupt, or after I resign from the company..."
Only then did this reporter remember that Qu Li was the boss of a listed company. While he was wealthy, he also had his own career and pursuits.
After Red Cliff, there will be no more Qu Li! Some media actually used such an outrageous title, which almost made him cry. Can you have some moral integrity? Is it reasonable? Is it a curse?
Maybe Qu Li really has a fan base. His Matt-killing business has become popular across the country and has become the standard for bad boys born in the 1990s in urban and rural areas. He is regarded by many as the "Leaven Master" of the Shamate cult. Next It should be banned in one step.
After the interview, Qu Li returned to Glory and received a very unexpected news. Motorola Tower was looking for a buyer and they were preparing to sell it.
"They shouldn't sell it to Glory, right?"
"Of course, but don't you have money? You can find a way to buy it and then sublease it to us. This kind of advertising effect is sensational. How much advertising expenses can be saved?" Zhou Shaoning said it with certainty. It makes sense!
"How much does it cost?" Qu Li was worried that it was too expensive and he couldn't afford it. The total construction area of the Motorola Building is 33,745 square meters, and the house price near the China World Trade Center is over 30,010 square meters, right?
"I don't know." Zhou Shaoning
Without Qu Li, Singapore's Mapletree Group acquired Motorola Tower for RMB 914 million a few months later. To say that housing prices can rise tenfold, the rise in prices of these commercial office buildings is not that outrageous. For example, the floor area is 22,700 square meters.
, the Ark Building with a construction area of 19,700 square meters, was acquired by Mapletree Group for 420 million in 2014 and sold for 750 million in early 2020.
I asked about the funding situation of the Vision Fund. If there is no problem, then buy it.
Chapter completed!
