On October 19, 1987, Monday, Wall Street was shrouded in gloomy clouds. With the rapid and dull "dang, dang, dang" bells, the New York Stock Exchange began a new day.
However, the performance of the stock market did not give them a Christmas gift as many investors thought. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 7 points at the opening. In the blink of an eye, selling orders surged.
Under the pressure of the swarm of selling, all the red prices (falling) appeared on the screen, and no green wave (rising) could be seen. There was panic in the exchange, and the futures market was also in chaos.
The main reason why the U.S. stock market has been able to maintain growth for five years is that investors around the world have confidence in the United States. However, all of this disappeared with the collapse of the U.S. stock market, and the entire market was full of selling.
No one dared to take over, even if there were a few maverick "warriors" occasionally, they were soon overwhelmed by the huge torrent of sales orders.
The female host on the TV screen turned pale, and she said to the audience in front of the TV in a sad tone.
"God, have you abandoned America?"
In front of the TV, even Chen Yangzhe, who was used to seeing big scenes, was trembling with shock at this scene. He had never seen such a terrifying scene in his lifetime. If it hadn't been for Sun Tzu's warning, Shunyang Group would have suffered losses.
He couldn't imagine how big it would be.
Thinking of this, Chen Yangzhe looked at Qin Hao with brighter eyes.
Chen Yongji's scalp was numb at the moment, especially Chen Yongji. He couldn't believe that Qin Hao's speculation had actually become a reality, and the US stock market had really collapsed!
Although it has only been less than two hours since the market opened, Chen Yongji knows very well that a decline and a collapse are two different things. When market confidence is frustrated, what follows is like a flood, and no one can stop it.
"The financial tsunami is really coming!" Chen Yongji muttered to himself.
Cui Changji and his wife were so shocked that they jumped up from the sofa. They first looked at each other, and then moved their eyes to Qin Hao. Both of them had expressions of disbelief.
Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Hao yawned and then bowed slightly towards Chen Yangzhe.
"Grandpa, I'm going to bed first, I have to go to class tomorrow."
Chen Yangzhe originally had a lot of things to ask his grandson, but seeing that he looked sleepy, he could only hold back his words.
"Okay, you go to bed first. The second daughter-in-law will take our Haojun to have a rest. A genius's brain needs enough sleep."
Well, the geniuses have popped out, and Chen Yongji and Chen Huaying looked even more ugly when they heard this.
The old lady Li Biyu hugged Qin Hao distressedly and complained: "This old man is really serious. If you have anything, we can't talk about it tomorrow. What time is it already? Come to Haojun, grandma will help you prepare the room."
"Thank you, grandma." Qin Hao said with a sweet face. Thinking about it, this old lady is quite pitiful. After giving birth to three children, no one is considerate to her. The only one who can understand her is the child her husband had with someone else.
"Why should this kid be polite to grandma?" Li Biyu smiled and rubbed Qin Hao's head, sent him into the room, and warned Liu Zhina at the same time.
"As a mother, taking good care of your children is your first priority. Haojun liked to kick the quilt when he was a child. You should pay more attention to him and don't let him catch a cold."
"It's mother." Ryu Ji-na could only bow obediently.
In the living room, the real-time reports on the TV screen continued. In the past two hours, the disaster had intensified. The entire U.S. financial market was wailing. From stocks to futures, insurance, all financial-related products were plummeting.
The amount of selling even caused a total of 200 computers on the New York Stock Exchange to crash. This was an unprecedented sight, and the market panic intensified.
At 13:09 p.m., terrible news reached the Wall Street stock market. David Rudd, chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, announced that he was discussing with various exchanges to temporarily close the exchanges.
This news caused even more panic. Because once the exchange was closed, traders would not be able to sell their stocks, and their stocks would be worthless, and thousands of dollars would be wiped out. So people had to
Quickly "dumping stocks". The Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted like a maniac. By 2 p.m., it had dropped 250 points.
Chen Yangzhe turned off the TV, took a deep breath and sighed: "The U.S. stock market is over."
Chen Dongji felt complicated at the moment. On the one hand, his son predicted the crisis correctly and successfully avoided a loss of nearly one billion US dollars for Shunyang Group, which was a great contribution. As a father, he was naturally very happy, but what worried him was that he
His performance in this crisis was really poor. Although the old man didn't say it explicitly, who knows whether he made a mental note for him.
Chen Yongji's face was always ugly. Of course, he was not pitying the international speculators who lost money in the US stock market, but he was having a headache. The old man now loves his second son more and more. Will this affect his position as heir?
Of course, Chen Yongji does not regret sending his son to the United States. He knows the virtues of his son very well. Don't compete for favor when the time comes. Instead, he will become the backdrop for the second son. Rather than doing this, he would rather send him far away.
, Distance brings beauty, wait until this kid matures and come back, maybe he can still have some effect by then.
Chen Yangzhe patted the handle of the sofa and stood up. Chen Yongji and others also stood up immediately.
"Let's all go and have a rest. We'll talk about anything tomorrow. We are all grown-ups, so we might as well be a child."
Chen Yongji and the others looked at each other speechlessly, acting as if you were not nervous. Of course, no one dared to talk to Chen Yangzhe like that.
That night, the Chen Yongji brothers and sisters were destined to not sleep well.
On the other side, Qin Hao slept very peacefully. He slept until dawn. Liu Zhina's life was not so good. Because of her mother-in-law's instructions, she had to get up from time to time to see if her son had kicked the quilt. She usually did this at home.
All these things are done by the nanny, so there is no need for her, but at her parents-in-law's house, she can only do it by herself.
Qin Hao got up gently, covered Liu Zhina with the quilt, and after a brief wash, he came downstairs.
Today's Zhengxinzhai is particularly quiet. Except for the old lady Li Biyu, everyone else is still catching up on their sleep.
Seeing Qin Hao coming down, the smile on the face of the old lady Li Biyu instantly bloomed.
"Haojun is up, why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Qin Hao smiled and took the old lady's hand, with a well-behaved look on his face: "Grandma, I'm hungry."
"Ouch, why are you up so early? It turns out our Haojun is hungry." Li Biyu reached out and pinched Qin Hao's cheeks that were still slightly chubby, then turned to the servant and said.
"What are you still doing? Why don't you bring breakfast?"
Qin Hao was a little helpless. Who told him that he was only ten years old now? His performance before was already incredible. It was better not to act too mature in life. The goal was too big. If not, the brothers Chen Yongji and Chen Huaying would be left to him.
Prepare the dump truck package in advance.
Li Biyu looked at Qin Hao eating breakfast with a loving face, and was a little dissatisfied when his daughter-in-law Liu Zina didn't come down yet.
"How did Zhina do this? The children have already gotten up, but she hasn't gotten up yet. How did she become a mother?"
Qin Hao naturally wanted to defend his cheap mother: "It's all my fault that I didn't sleep well at night. My mother probably didn't sleep all night because she wanted to cover me with a quilt. I saw that she was too tired, so I didn't wake her up."
The dissatisfaction on Li Biyu's face was relieved, but he still complained: "Young people nowadays are precious. When I was pregnant with your father, I had to serve my parents-in-law and take care of the children. Why don't you come here?"
Qin Hao smiled and complimented: "Grandma is a superman, of course mom can't compare to her."
Li Biyu couldn't close his mouth with laughter when he heard this.
At this moment, a loud voice came from behind.
"Oh, what's so funny, look at how funny this old woman like you is."
Listening to this powerful voice, you knew without looking back that it must be Chen Yangzhe.
Li Biyu glanced sideways at Chen Yangzhe and complained: "I have been married to you for so many years, and I have never seen you make me happy. Our Haojun is still the most sensible and feels sorry for grandma."
Chen Yangzhe didn't expect that the fire could burn him, so he quickly changed the subject and said to Qin Hao.
"Ahem, that Haojun, I said last time that if your guess is correct, I will give you an extra reward. What do you want?"
Qin Hao rolled his eyes, thought for a moment and then said: "Grandpa, can you help me register a company in the United States?"
"Oh? What kind of company do you want to register?"
When it came to business, Chen Yangzhe changed his joking attitude and asked seriously.
"I will use the money I earn to invest in the company, and grandpa will help me find some capable assistants."
Chen Yangzhe was happy: "Oh, it seems that our Haojun's ambition is not small. If grandpa guessed it right, you will earn at least 10 to 20 million U.S. dollars during this U.S. stock market crash, right?"
Qin Hao made a gesture to protect the food in front of him and looked at Chen Yangzhe warily: "Grandpa, we agreed before that the one million US dollars is the reward you gave me. You can't just keep your word."
.”
Chen Yangzhe laughed loudly: "You boy, how can your grandpa still covet your little money?"
"Okay, grandpa will help you register the company. Grandpa wants to see how much money you will have left when you grow up."
In Chen Yangzhe's view, although Sun Tzu correctly guessed a stock market crash and made his first pot of gold, long-term capital operation does not just rely on a genius's flash of inspiration. Intelligence, strong analytical skills, and acumen to the market
Touch is indispensable. He doesn't believe that this ten-year-old kid can make money all the time. It would be good if he doesn't lose money.
Of course, Chen Yangzhe also hopes that Qin Hao can make money, so that at least Shunyang Group will have a successor in the financial field in the future. As for registering a company, it is not even a cost for him, and the tuition fee is earned by his grandson himself.
The first pot of gold, through this company you can test Sun Tzu's ability, why not?
After a while, the three brothers and sisters Chen Yongji woke up one after another. When they heard Chen Yangzhe announcing that he would register a company for Qin Hao, the movements of their hands all stopped.
Chen Dongji looked at Qin Hao with a bit of hatred. Originally, he planned to take this opportunity to ask his son to ask his father to take a piece of Shunyang Group's main business and hand it over to him for management. But now it's better, he just got one.
Shell companies in the United States even have to pay their own capital.
Chen Yongji was also worried about this at first, and he felt a little complicated for a while. It stands to reason that Erfang did not take the opportunity to snatch Shunyang Group's business this time, so he should be happy. However, when he thought of the other party's performance in the US stock market crash, Chen Yongji became more excited.
I can't help but worry, if my nephew really achieves results, wouldn't that be a big bonus?
"How is that possible? He's just a ten-year-old kid. It's not that easy to make money from the financial market."
Soon, this thought was driven out of Chen Yongji's mind.
Chen Huaying's thoughts were similar to Chen Yongji's. They both felt that Qin Hao, a little kid, just got lucky and hit the jackpot. It would only happen once at most for a blind cat to encounter a dead mouse? How could he encounter it all day long?
of.
For a long period of time that followed, the U.S. stock market was in a state of crazy decline. Only a few occasional small rebounds occurred, and they were soon crushed by the wave of decline. The United States also took a variety of measures.
They want to rescue the market, but the effect is not obvious.
The collapse of the U.S. stock market soon caused violent shocks in financial markets around the world. The London Stock Exchange, Tokyo Stock Exchange, and Singapore Stock Exchange fell for more than ten consecutive trading days. No matter which exchange you went to, it was a scene of hell on earth.
Sometimes reporters even took pictures of falling people during interviews. According to the Wall Street Journal, some building rooftops were already overcrowded.
Naturally, the performance of the Korean stock market under such a global impact was not much better, but this is not a bad thing for chaebols with large amounts of funds in their hands, such as Soon Yang Group.
Under Chen Yangzhe's instructions, Shunyang Group invested in the acquisition of many high-quality companies that had to be sold due to broken capital chains.
"Haha, Haojun is really our lucky star in Shunyang. If Yongxin Department Store was acquired two months ago, it would have cost at least 30 million US dollars, but now we have acquired it for less than 10 million US dollars."
Chen Yangzhe laughed so hard that he couldn't even open his mouth from ear to ear.
Director Li smiled cooperatively and said: "Yes, this financial crisis came too suddenly. Many Korean companies were implicated. Even Daying Group suffered heavy losses because of it. Only those who hold a large amount of liquidity in their hands now
We are the only one in Shunyang Group."
When Daying Group was mentioned, Chen Yangzhe was even happier. This was Shunyang Group's old enemy. Zhu Rongyi, the chairman of Daying Group, had been fighting with him all his life. This time, he was able to defeat the opponent hard. It felt good to think about it.
Cool.
"By the way, what is that boy Haojun doing recently?" Chen Yangzhe thought of his "magical" grandson again.
Director Li responded respectfully: "Master Haojun goes to school on time as usual, and sometimes has gatherings with other children from chaebol families."
"Oh, what's going on with that company of his? I remember he converted Coca-Cola's short bonds into cash last month, right?"
"Uh... Master Haojun bought all the 20 million U.S. dollars into short-selling U.S. dollar bonds!"
"Short the U.S. dollar?" The teacup in Chen Yangzhe's hand shook and the tea poured onto his hand, but he didn't react at all.
