"Cheers!" In the office of "Galaxy Investment Company" in the Landmark Plaza in Central, Zhou Hao, He Xueyun, Song Jiahao, Willie Wass and other employees raised their champagne glasses in the air, with very excited expressions on their faces.
It was to celebrate the victory of this short two-day battle.
The Hong Kong government, represented by Zeng Yingquan, listened to Zhou Hao's suggestion and used billions of dollars from the Exchange Fund to almost eliminate all the Hong Kong dollars maliciously sold by hedge funds such as Quantum Fund and Tiger Management, which effectively stabilized the Hong Kong dollar.
Interest rates and exchange rates also caused Soros and Julian to suffer losses.
As the main force in this battle, the Hong Kong government and Soros and others did not make any profit. The biggest gain was to stabilize the linked exchange rate system, while the latter lost more than HK$3 billion in futures on the Hong Kong dollar and its interest rates.
.In this fight between snipe and clam, Zhou Hao, a fisherman on the outside, was the winner in the end, with a profit of more than 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, which was similar to the losses of Soros and others.
"Ding, ding, ding." Zhou Hao gently tapped the rim of the wine glass with a small spoon, attracting the attention of the employees. The originally cheerful employees immediately knew that the boss had something to say, and they all calmed down automatically.
"Everyone, this short-term transaction only lasted for two days, and our 'Galaxy' made a total of HK$3.235 billion. To be honest, this number is nothing in our past transaction history.
"
The employees below all laughed. Indeed, compared with the financial transactions operated by "Galaxy" in the past, the profit of more than 3 billion Hong Kong dollars is really not that much.
Zhou Hao raised his hand and pressed it, then smiled: "But the symbolic meaning this time is extremely exciting, because we are fighting against the Quantum Fund led by George Soros, and controlled by Julian Robertson
Tiger Management, the two financial giants who dominated Wall Street, we defeated them!"
"Yeah!" All the employees, both men and women, screamed excitedly, their blood boiling, and they wanted to really rush to the battlefield to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds.
Although they only won a small victory this time, and it was the Hong Kong government that played a big role in it, it is indisputable that they did win neatly against Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund.
Up to now, those who can stay in "Galaxy Investment Company" or can be selected and poached from other places are top talents in finance. These people naturally know the status of Soros and Julian in the financial market. That is a
A fascinating legend, even a kind of belief, is also the idol of many of them when they study financial economics. Is there anything more exciting than defeating your idol?
But under the leadership of Zhou Hao, they actually fought against their idols and won, which was even happier than making them rich themselves.
"But gentlemen and ladies, don't be so happy yet." Zhou Hao said seriously: "Because this is just the beginning. Next, we will face a more brutal and prolonged financial war, involving the stock market, foreign exchange market, futures market and even
In fields such as the property market, more funds are invested and the risks are greater.
I want to ask everyone, do you have the confidence to win?"
"Yes!" everyone shouted without hesitation.
"Very good!" Zhou Hao smiled: "What I want to tell everyone is that in this next battle, whether we win or lose, we will leave a strong mark in the world's financial history. We will become
People like George Soros and Julian Robertson who create history and write history!
Come, cheers to the history we have created!"
"Cheers!" Everyone shouted and drank all the wine in their hands.
"In order to prepare for the upcoming battle, I will give you a holiday these two days. During these two days, I hope you will try not to touch anything related to finance, but relax and have fun, so that you can be completely relaxed.
Once, okay?”
"good!"
When he returned to the office, Zhou Hao sat down on the executive chair and sighed: "It seems that I really don't have the potential to be a leader. No, I won't be able to speak for a while."
He Xueyun stood behind him, massaged his forehead gently, and said with a smile: "You still say you don't have the potential to be a leader? Look at the employees in the company who have been provoked by you, as if they were on stimulants. I think
You can be more than just a leader, you can be the leader of a cult."
Zhou Hao smiled wryly and waved his hands, remembering how the employees below were shouting excitedly at him just now, which really sounded like a cult.
Song Jiahao, who was opposite him, also smiled and said: "Manager, you don't know that the employees below admire the boss the most. If the boss really creates a cult and asks them to join, I don't think they will hesitate."
Zhou Hao smiled and ignored the guy's joke, but looked at Willy Wenth, because Willy Wenth's face was red after drinking, which was completely different from his usual style. Normally, Wei Wensi
Levas is taciturn and doesn't like to drink. Even in the company's large-scale celebrations, a few sips is the limit. He just drank five or six glasses of champagne. The excitement in his eyes was completely different from the silence of the past.
.
"Willy Wass, you are happy that you have a slight upper hand against Soros and Julian this time." Zhou Hao said with a smile: "We can't take it lightly. This time we calculated it mentally and unintentionally, but from now on
After this, I think Soros and the others have more or less noticed our existence, and will act more cautiously, and their offensive will become more ferocious."
Willyworth nodded solemnly, but the excitement from the heart in his eyes did not weaken at all.
"Hao, 'Xinghe' has been registered in the BVI and is waiting for us to transfer ownership there," He Xueyun said.
Zhou Hao nodded: "This matter cannot wait, Jiahao, Willyworth, you must handle this matter carefully."
"Galaxy" was originally a securities company registered and established by Zhao Yuqin in Xiangcheng. Later, in order to cooperate with Zhou Hao's investment activities, it moved to Hong Kong for offshore registration, and the ownership of the company also belonged to Zhou Hao alone. Offshore registration
A company is a very special entity that can avoid various taxes to a great extent, and the supervision it receives will be much looser.
If it is a general financial investment, the "Galaxy" registered in Hong Kong can still cope with various situations. However, as Zhou Hao's business becomes larger and larger, it becomes more and more sensitive, even involving Indonesia and Russia.
□□, the "Galaxy" relationship is no longer suitable to stay in Hong Kong. Whether it is to avoid suspicion or to be more flexible and maneuverable for future investments, the "Galaxy" relationship is no longer suitable to stay in Hong Kong.
.
Zhou Hao originally wanted to register in Brunei, because in his previous life, he knew that Brunei's policy on offshore registered companies is very relaxed. Most taxes do not need to be paid, but the annual management fee is a bit more expensive, but they allow it.
The company has a single shareholder and can well protect the confidentiality of shareholders' information, and its supervision is not strict. It is really the first choice for tax avoidance.
However, Zhou Hao later learned that it would take more than two years for Brunei to start housing finance policies, so after discussing with Zhao Yuqin, He Xueyun and Willie Wass, Zhou Hao could only settle for the next best thing and chose the British Virgin Islands.
, that is, BVI. You can avoid most taxes there, and other policies are similar to Brunei, but they are a bit far away.
He Xueyun said: "After registering in the BVI, 'Galaxy' has officially transformed into an investment fund."
Zhou Hao smiled: "Haha, it seems that in addition to Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund, there will be a Galaxy Fund in the future."
Willis was very excited and said: "The day is not far away, boss. I believe that our 'Galaxy' can definitely become comparable, no, it should be said that our 'Galaxy' can definitely surpass Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund and become the first in the financial world."
The most famous fund in the country!”
"You are very interested." Zhou Hao said with a smile: "But I don't care about the name. After all, the more famous you are, the easier it is to become the target of public criticism."
"Don't worry, boss, even if we become famous, we can still keep the fund's confidentiality very good." Willy Wenth said confidently: "Quantum Fund is an offshore registered fund and does not accept U.S. funds at all.
In addition to the reputation of Quantum Fund, outsiders will find it difficult to know the true situation unless people inside Quantum Fund come forward to expose it."
Zhou Hao waved his hand, because these things were not his biggest concern. At this stage, what he was most concerned about was the battle that had already begun. He said to Song Jiahao and Willie Wass: "You two should also have a holiday, but
You can't be like the employees below and avoid financial matters. After all, if there is any news, you still need to pass it on."
The market is closed for these two days, and Zhou Hao and the others rarely have free time, so Zhou Hao wants his men to take advantage of this rare opportunity to relax and better prepare for the upcoming tough battle.
He Xueyun handed each of them a check: "Here is one hundred thousand U.S. dollars, which you can use as your consumption for the past two days."
"Thank you, manager." Song Jiahao and Willie Wass smiled.
His employees were going on holiday, so the two big bosses Zhou Hao and He Xueyun naturally had to take a break. After leaving the office, He Xueyun took Zhou Hao to the shopping mall below to help him buy some daily necessities.
However, when they took the elevator to the fifth floor, a foreign man in his fifties or sixties who walked in caught the attention of Zhou Hao and He Xueyun.
Although this foreign man is just an ordinary old man in the eyes of ordinary people, Zhou Hao and He Xueyun recognized this guy because he was Julian Robertson, known as the "tiger" in the financial world!
