Reba nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

Dance in movies is different from stage performances, because dance in movies has only one purpose, and that is to serve the plot.

But some things are simple to say but very difficult to do. Even with Reba's acting and dancing skills, it took a full two hours to meet Zhang Yimou's requirements.

"Okay!" After Zhang Yimou finished filming, he patted his thigh and said happily: "Great, I originally planned that this dance scene would take at least three days to complete, but I didn't expect it to be completed in one morning, Reba

, you are simply amazing.”

Reba smiled bitterly and said: "Fortunately, it's completed. If it really took three days to shoot, I think I would go crazy."

No lines are used, only facial expressions and gestures are used to show one's charm and charm. No matter who it is, it is a spiritual blow.

"As soon as an expert takes action, he will know if there is any. Sister Reba's dance is so beautiful."

"Reba interprets the four words enchanting and charming to the extreme."

"Looking back and smiling, if I were the King of Wu, I would definitely be confused by her."

“···”

Everyone at the scene was whispering.

Bao Guoan praised: "Yes, as someone close to Mr. Zhang questioned, Reba is really good at spending so much effort on the role."

Chen Baoguo nodded and said: "This family's attitude towards movies is indeed very admirable."

Since the previous parts of "Sleeping on Fire and Taste the Dares" were filmed in the palaces of Wu and Yue, there were no scenes for Zhang Xiao, so after lunch, Zhang Xiao was ready to fly to Yuzhou.

Before getting in the car, Yang Mi gave Zhang Xiao a lot of instructions, telling him to take good care of Xiao Xinxin.

Zhang Xiao naturally agreed, and his daughter must be taken good care of.

After returning to Yuzhou, Zhang Xiao lived a life of two points and one line every day.

I send my children to school in the morning, go to the dance studio of Qingtian Entertainment Company to practice dancing in the morning, and prepare for the national tour. I pick up my children and go home from school in the afternoon. My life is very fulfilling.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

On this day, Zhang Xiao was rehearsing mechanical dance with more than a dozen dancers. Burton, the CEO of Universal Special Effects Company, called and told him that all the special effects in "War for the Planet of the Apes" had been completed.

Zhang Xiao was very happy when he heard this. He sent Xiao Xinxin to her grandparents that night and flew to New York.

After arriving at Universal Special Effects Company, Zhang Xiao carefully watched each special effects screen many times and was very satisfied.

Zhang Xiao said: "Boton, tell the brothers that this month's salary will be doubled."

Bolton's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "Thank you, boss, you are so generous."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "This is nothing. If "War for the Planet of the Apes" can achieve good box office, I will give everyone a big red envelope."

Bolton said: "Boss, I'm afraid you've already received this red envelope."

"Hahaha!" Zhang Xiao laughed loudly and said, "Then I'll lend you some good luck."

Taking away the filming materials and special effects materials of "War for the Planet of the Apes", Zhang Xiao was ready to return to China to do the remaining post-production work.

Holby Manor.

Clark handed a large stack of information to Zhang Xiao and reported to him the investment situation in the past six months, which amounted to a total of 27 billion US dollars.

"Mr. Zhang, the stock markets in Europe and the United States were generally not very prosperous in the first half of the year. Our income reached 8%. I am very sorry. This is my dereliction of duty." Clark said to Zhang Xiao.

In addition to the fixed stocks, Zhang Xiao also had more than 300 billion US dollars in liquidity. With so much money, he only made 27 billion US dollars, and the rate of return was indeed not very good.

However, the entire European and American markets don't seem to be doing well, and the stock markets have declined, so it's no wonder Clark.

So Zhang Xiao said: "Clark, I have said many times that when we are of our size, safety is the first factor, and the second is the rate of return. An income of 8% in half a year is already very good."

Clark said: "Thank you Mr. Zhang for your understanding."

Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "I have read some books on finance recently and found that the risks in this industry are too great. It is like walking on the edge of a cliff alone. If you make the wrong step, you will fall to pieces.

.”

"Looking at the white hair and wrinkles you have gained in the past two years, you can see how stressed you are on a daily basis. Clark, take good care of your body."

Hearing Zhang Xiao's caring words, Clark's eyes couldn't help but redden, and he was very moved.

He has worked on Wall Street and banks all his life, and he has never seen a boss care so much about him.

"Mr. Zhang, I keep running every day and there is no problem with my body."

At this point, Clark was silent for a moment and said: "Mr. Zhang, I feel that the current investment environment is not very good."

Zhang Xiao was stunned and said: "What do you mean, financial crisis?"

Clark said: "I just have an ominous premonition that the current situation is very similar to the financial crisis nine years ago, but I don't have any evidence to support my idea."

Professional managers like Clark usually make investments according to strict procedures and will never say anything irresponsible without any supporting materials, so as to avoid misleading Zhang Xiao into making wrong decisions.

If Zhang Xiao hadn't always been very kind to him, Clark would never have said such a thing.

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "If there was evidence that a financial crisis was about to happen, you would be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars by now."

Clark smiled and said, "That's what Mr. Zhang said."

Zhang Xiao stood up, with a light of wisdom flashing in his eyes, and said: "I noticed it three years ago, but I couldn't tell when it started."

Clark was stunned and asked: "Mr. Zhang, why do you make such a judgment?"

Zhang Xiao said: "The subprime mortgage problem."

When he was on Earth, although Zhang Xiao was just a small person and didn't understand investment and finance, he also clearly remembered that the Lighthouse Country had a serious financial crisis caused by the subprime mortgage crisis.

The crisis was so destructive that the whole world was paying for it.

The current situation in the lighthouse country is similar to that on Earth, and the possibility of a financial crisis is very high.

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Clark was shocked. A flash of lightning flashed through his mind, and he exclaimed: "A week ago, Mercure Financial Company, one of the top three subprime mortgage companies in Lighthouse Country, went bankrupt. Could this mean that Lighthouse?

Is this the starting point of China’s financial crisis?”

Zhang Xiao smiled slightly, without the slightest hint of panic, and said: "Clark, drink some tea and calm down. Even if a financial crisis does happen, it won't be this year."

Clark took a deep breath, his mind was racing, and he said: "Yes, if we don't make a mistake in judgment, then the financial crisis is likely to break out next year or the year after."

"The key is that we cannot be sure that a financial crisis will definitely break out. If we make a mistake in judgment, the losses will be huge."

Zhang Xiao said: "Then look for evidence. If there is really a financial crisis caused by the subprime mortgage crisis, then the related residential mortgage investment companies will be the first to bear the brunt. Clark, do you understand what I mean?"

Clark nodded and said: "Understood, I will immediately ask someone to check and see the operating conditions of these companies."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "If you want to investigate secretly, the fewer people who know, the better."

Clark said: "Okay, Mr. Zhang."

Assassin, Clark admired the boss in front of him.

Why is it that I have worked hard all my life to be just a manager, while Zhang Xiao can become a rich man worth hundreds of billions of dollars at a young age? This is the gap.

Maybe I am much better than Zhang Xiao professionally, but the most important link is decision-making. In this link, there is a huge difference between the two.

Otherwise, you wouldn’t be unable to seize the opportunity to make money every time.

In the next few days, Zhang Xiao stayed in his investment company and analyzed various data with Clark.

After a week, the two came to the conclusion that a financial crisis is likely to occur within the next two years.

As for the specific time, it is not something that the two of them can analyze.

What surprised Zhang Xiao was that besides him and Clark, there was actually an economist in a financial magazine who also made the same judgment, but no one paid attention to it.

Zhang Xiao immediately sent Clark to contact the economist, and found that the economist was just talking on paper, without doing any research, and was withdrawing for the magazine's royalties.

Clark looked at Zhang Xiao and asked, "Mr. Zhang, what should we do now?"

Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said: "Except for retaining high-quality assets, all other funds will be withdrawn."

Clark frowned when he heard this and said: "Mr. Zhang, if the result is different from what we judged, then our losses will probably be very large."

Zhang Xiao said in a deep voice: "Now that we have concluded that a financial crisis will break out, no matter what the final result is, we must take action."

"If our judgment is wrong, it doesn't matter. Isn't it just a compensation of tens of billions of dollars? We can still afford the compensation."

"But if our judgment is correct, then we will not only protect the safety of funds, but also take advantage of this financial crisis to purchase the best assets at the lowest price."

"If we lose, we lose tens of billions, but if we win, we can earn hundreds of billions. I think this risk is worth taking."

Clark nodded and said: "Mr. Zhang, I will ask someone to list all the company stocks we purchased and let you make the decision."

Zhang Xiao hummed and said: "Go!"

A few days passed. After careful research and discussion, Zhang Xiao and Clark prepared to withdraw 85% of all stocks, retaining only a dozen of the highest quality assets.

It's not that I don't know, it's that I'm shocked.

Zhang Xiao's total assets have reached 520 billion US dollars, 85% of which is 4421 US dollars.

With this money, Zhang Xiao plans to purchase a large amount of gold, silver and other precious metals, and then keep one-third of the cash in exchange for China's soft coins.

Because RMB and the US dollar are the two most powerful currencies in the world, judging from past financial crises, although the US dollar will depreciate, other currencies have depreciated more, and only RMB is the most stable.

In a financial crisis, gold is king and cash is king, so as long as Zhang Xiao can seize these two parts before the crisis breaks out, everything will be OK.
