   Chapter 1530 The good show is yet to come

Ruined!

   Staring at the constantly beating and rising Facebook stock price on the computer screen, Li Yikai only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and he almost fainted.

  Mu Zhixin, the dog-headed military strategist who came to New York from Hong Kong to develop his career with Li Lao Er, did not look like an old man in his 60s at all, and quickly gave Li Yikai a hand.

  Li Yikai waved at Mu Zhixin, indicating that he was fine.

   Immediately, he looked at Eric Jackson sitting in front of the computer with an angry face, and snarled: "Didn't you say it's foolproof? How could this happen!

   Facebook's share price is about to break through $40, how do we end it? "

   In the face of the big money owner's trouble, Eric Jackson was sprayed with no temper at all, and said with a bitter face: "The market has changed a little, it should be another short position to stop the loss."

   "The other way short?"

  Li Yikai suddenly remembered what happened some time ago. At that time, they were short selling Facebook shares, and a group of people suddenly rushed out and joined the short selling army.

   At that time, he also thought that the more people there are, the more power, and the more shorts join in, the more confidence in the success of shorting.

   Who knows, these **** are so unpromising, they just surrendered!

  Thinking of this, Li Yikai was instantly furious, and his face was twisted with anger.

   But he obviously doesn't have time to scold those cowards right now, because he still has a whole billion dollars left in the stock market.

   At a critical juncture, Li Yikai acted very decisively, and immediately gave an order: "We also quickly stop the loss!"

   Jackson persuaded with a serious expression: "Richard, if we stop the loss and exit now, not only will the 1 billion dollar margin in the account be lost by seven or eight, but also a chance to make a big profit will be lost."

  Li Yikai laughed in anger, "A chance to make a lot of money? Are you taking me for a fool?

   Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have already expressed their intention to raise the stock price. We don’t choose to stop the loss in time at this time, so should we continue to use the mantra as a car? "

   Hearing this, Mu Zhixin also stared at Jackson with eyes like torches. Now he is a private consultant hired by Li Yikai, and he is obliged to check for Li Yikai.

Looking at the two eyes that wanted to devour themselves alive, Jackson was not afraid, but said calmly: "We are not losing now, I am sure that in a few days, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will definitely sell Facebook. 's stock.

   Don’t look at Facebook’s current stock price soaring all the way. When Goldman Sachs and the others cash out, the stock price will definitely avalanche.

   What we have to do is to withstand this wave of stock price rebound pressure and wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

  We can even consider adding more positions to reduce the cost of short selling.

  If we are frightened by the momentum of Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley and stop the loss, we may really lose.

  Now, there is still a chance! "

   Looking at Jackson's sincere eyes, Li Yikai's anger dissipated a lot, and his frantic brain gradually recovered.

He thought about it carefully for a moment, and felt that what Jackson said also made sense. The stock market has always been daring and timid. If he just fled in such a sullen way, the floating loss in the account would become a real loss. .

   Now the only losses in the account are numbers, and there is still a chance to pull the situation back.

But Li Yikai was still a little afraid of the energy of Wall Street giants, and asked hesitantly: "Are you sure that Goldman Sachs will sell Facebook shares? If they don't sell, what should we do? Continue to resist? "

  Jackson said confidently: "Richard, believe me, it will definitely sell, otherwise why would they spend so much effort to raise the stock price?

   The more confident Goldman Sachs behaves, the more guilty he becomes. "

  Li Yikai couldn't help nodding, and then asked, "How much money do you need?"

  Jackson pointed a finger, "At least another $1 billion in funding!

   Now we hold a total of $3 billion in short positions, which is equivalent to three times leverage. In theory, if Facebook’s stock price rises more than 33.33%, we will liquidate our positions.

However, due to the close-out warning line, in fact, it is not necessary to achieve a stock price increase of 33.33%, but only need to create a stock price increase of nearly 30%. Several investment banks such as UBS and Bank of America Merrill Lynch will require us to add margin, otherwise they will forced liquidation. "

Speaking of this, Jackson glanced anxiously at the computer screen, which was still green, and sighed: "Whether it is to continue shorting with a margin call, or to stop the loss and close the position immediately, a decision needs to be made as soon as possible, because the stock price is fast. It has risen to the warning line of closing the position.”

  Li Yikai also glanced at the stock price chart, hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, I understand, I'll give you an answer in ten minutes, you all go out first."

   Hearing this, Mu Zhixin and Jackson got up and left the office one after another.

   After the two left, Li Yikai took out his mobile phone from his pocket and called his father Li Huangtai with mixed feelings.

   He was very reluctant to say this to the old man, but he couldn't squeeze any extra funds out of his hands.

   After a few seconds of ringing, the phone was connected, and an old voice came from the other end.

   "Yi Kai, when will I go back to Hong Kong, I haven't seen my grandson for a long time."

  Li Yikai was stunned for a moment, and forced a smile on his face, "In a few days, I'm still in the United States."

   "Well, what are you doing in America?"

  Li Yikai absently responded to the old man with a few words, and was extremely anxious. How should he ask for money?

   Thinking that his stock account was about to be liquidated, he couldn't bear it any longer, and said with a sigh, "Dad, I need a billion dollars now, you can use your international account to help me."

   Li Huangtai on the other end of the phone was lying on the sofa, comfortably receiving a gentle massage from his confidante Zou Xuan. Hearing his son's words, he frowned and asked, "Why do you want so much money?"

  Li Yikai completely put down his so-called face, and explained the important things he had done recently in the shortest language.

   "You shorted Facebook?"

Li Huangtai waved to Zou Xuan who was behind him and told her to stop the massage, then stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with a sullen face, and looked at the green hills in the distance, before sighing after a while and said, "Why do you still To provoke Xia Jingxing?”

   "He can short Huanghe Industrial and Li Kee Huangpu, why can't I short Facebook?"

Li Yikai stubbornly said, and then realized that his tone was wrong, and quickly explained: "Dad, Facebook stocks are now facing a massive lifting of the ban, and many large investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are lining up to cash out. .

   This is not only an opportunity for revenge, but if it works well, it can make at least billions of dollars. "

  Li Huangtai was not happy at all because of his son's words, and said calmly: "Since the situation is very good, why do you have to invest an additional US$1 billion?"

  Li Yikai was stopped by this question, and after a while he said in a low voice: "Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley raised a wave of stock prices before cashing out. We were trapped in it, and we didn't choose the right time to go short."

   Hearing his son's frank admission of mistakes, Li Huangtai's face improved a lot, and he finally made progress.

   "Are you sure?"

   Hearing his father's words, Li Yikai was overjoyed and quickly replied: "At least 90% sure, now there is a shortfall of funds to cover the position."

   "Okay, I'll arrange for someone to call you money right away."

After    finished speaking, Li Huangtai added, "When you're done with this matter, remember to go home, that Miss Liang will not take it home."

  My father made money so easily, Li Yikai was secretly happy, but the old man's last sentence made him chill.

   The old man has always disliked his little girlfriend, even if this girl has added three men to their family, the old man's attitude is still firm, that is, Miss Liang is not allowed to enter the door of his Li family.

  Li Yikai still has feelings for Miss Liang. After all, he only gave birth to a son last year, and in June this year, he gave birth to a pair of twin sons.

   The reason why he gave birth to three sons in a row is not because he hopes to marry into a wealthy family.

   Thinking of his little girlfriend's obedient and sensible expression and begging for him, Li Yikai couldn't help feeling like a knife. He couldn't even protect a woman. What kind of man was he?

  Xia Jingxing spends more money than himself, who cares about him? Who dares to take care of him?

   So, men still have their own careers!

  Li Huangtai didn't know that his inadvertent words hurt his younger son's fragile self-esteem and made him even more rebellious.

"Oh, I see."

  Li Yi Kai replied angrily, then hung up the phone and slowly loosened his tightly clenched fists.

   Looking at Wall Street with many buildings outside the window, Li Yikai gradually regained some confidence.

   As long as he wins this battle, his father will definitely admire him, and then he will take the opportunity to fight for a little more of the family property. So far, the sky is high and the bird will fly, and he will never be so useless as now.

   On the other side, after Li Huangtai made arrangements to transfer money to his son, he still felt a little uneasy, and quickly called Yuan Tianfan and asked him to go home to discuss matters.

   He knows how much his younger son weighs, so as a father, he has to be ready to wipe his son's **** at any time.

  …

  …

  In a villa on Long Island, New York, a group of people are arguing loudly.

  Steven Cohen waved his arms and said with a face full of dissatisfaction: "What did I do wrong? Don't close the position now, waiting to be besieged by Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley?

   And if we don't run, the other shorts will run first, do we give others the queen?

   Stop loss and exit is the most rational choice at this stage. If you drag on, the situation will only get worse. "

  Larry Ellison mocked the fat man in front of him who claimed to be the king of hedge funds, and sneered: "So you closed your position at all costs and raised Facebook's stock price?

   Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley must thank you, maybe even a little bit. "

  Steven Cohen glared at Larry Ellison and said in a bad tone: "What do you mean? Do you suspect that I colluded with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley?"

  Larry Ellison spread his hands, "Who knows? Who told you to close all short positions without consulting us more."

  Steven Cohen laughed angrily, "You mean we're going to have a democratic meeting? Vote to close the position?

   If you do that, it’s not as simple as losing hundreds of millions of dollars. "

  Larry Ellison looks like he has a lot of money, "Is hundreds of millions of dollars a lot? Don't invest if you are afraid of losing money!"

"you…"

  Steven Cohen pointed his finger at Larry Ellison's nose, and was about to scold, when Jobs waved to stop it.

   "Both of you please calm down!"

   Jobs was lying weakly on the sofa, looking like he had a few days to live.

This look is really sympathetic, so Steven Cohen and Larry Ellison both gave the terminal cancer patient face, and they didn't quarrel, but they still didn't want to look at each other and turned their heads to the ground. aside.

   Looking at the divided alliance in front of him, Jobs lamented in his heart, expecting these people to deal a heavy blow to Xia Jingxing, fearing that it would fail.

   But as long as he thinks of the shame and failure that Xia Jingxing brought him, the bad anger in his heart is hard to dissipate.

   His time is running out, so he must hurry up and do something to not leave any regrets in his life.

   "Larry, don't blame Steven, he has a good starting point and wants to reduce some losses for everyone."

   Hearing Jobs say this, Cohen's face suddenly eased a lot, but he still scolded Larry Ellison in his heart, you are a healthy person, your vision and heart are not as good as a patient.

   Jobs went on to say: "Steven, Larry got angry because he failed to sell shorts, and the fire was not aimed at you.

   The reason why we gathered together is because we have the same goal, that is to get revenge on Daeron Xia.

   All signs show that Darren Xia still holds Facebook shares through many funds, and the number of shares is still quite large.

   Shorting Facebook and making a profit is only one aspect, and more importantly, we have to export evil spirits.

   Now the anger is not out, but instead a lot of money is lost.

  From a personal point of view, I am also a little hard to accept. "

   Larry Ellison nodded heavily and echoed: "Yes, as long as I can cause trouble for Daeron Xia, even if I lose money, I will be happy."

Cohen was a little disapproving. He was a professional in finance, and always put profit first, but the two people in front of him were completely bewildered. Is this a human word?

  Thinking of this, he suddenly regretted shorting Facebook with the two of them.

   Jobs asked: "Steven, do you think there is still a chance to short Facebook?"

   Without waiting for Cohen to answer, Larry Ellison answered first: "Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley should cash out after the stock ban is lifted, and Facebook's stock price won't last long."

After   , Larry Ellison gave Steven Cohen a hateful look, and he didn't believe that Cohen didn't notice anything that even a financial layman could judge.

   So, he has every reason to wonder if Cohen had some shady deals with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley in private.

   "You are right, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will cash out after the stock ban is lifted, but when is the specific time?"

   Cohen said with a cold smile: "If anyone really believes in those gossip news, they will only be killed by Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley."

   Jobs frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

   "Simple, trick a group of short sellers to come in and kill, and then turn their corpses into nutrient for the stock price to rise."

Cohen gave Larry Ellison a sideways glance and looked at Larry Ellison with an idiot-like look. If he hadn't run fast when the situation was bad, several people's funds would have been locked in it now. Chatting here?

   "Goldman Sachs so much?" Jobs asked.

   Cohen smiled coldly, "Otherwise? Don't you think you're done with a few stock analysis reports?

  You watch it, the real good show is yet to come. "
