Chapter 139 Celebration

After two months of rapid decline, the Nasdaq is now fluctuating, with relatively large swings.

The index is temporarily holding around 3,300 points, down more than 1,700 from its high in early March.

From a long-term perspective, Su Yehao is still bearish on it, but he no longer dares to increase leverage for short-term gains. This is why he started playing the long game after closing his positions, for example, with 3x short funds, six-to-nine-month option contracts, and hedge funds.

He is still shorting, but he has switched to a less aggressive approach to avoid short-term risks.

Vice President Zheng Yongwen was also unsure of what to do, so he called to ask Su Yehao's opinion.

Hearing Su Yehao's words, Zheng Yongwen said, "That's right, a 5% margin is indeed a bit risky. I only chose to take a gamble because I saw that the upward momentum was weak, so let's close most of the positions first. Cough... the profit isn't as high as two hundred million dollars. The market was a bit bad in the previous few trading days, but I still helped you earn about one hundred and seventy million dollars."

"???"

Su Yehao was curious as to why there was a loss, since he hadn't heard any news about it.

However, Jiang Yu had already finished showering and walked into the room wrapped in a towel.

Moreover, his relationship with Zheng Yongwen was a partnership, not a superior-subordinate relationship, so he was too lazy to ask more at the moment. He only said, "I'm doing business in Pengcheng. When I return to Hong Kong in a couple of days, I'll treat you to a meal and we can talk in detail. After withdrawing the funds, remember to pay attention to companies with poor performance, such as the severely loss-making Amazon. I feel that their bubble is still very large, suitable for shorting options."

"I'll study it first. The Hong Kong Stock Exchange is expected to go public next month. Find a reliable independent director in the mainland, and with you, we can occupy three seats."

The management system of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange after the reform is relatively flat. According to the plan, there will be a chairman of the board, an executive director, and an independent non-executive director.

Including Su Yehao, plus a seat for 5s Asset Management, if they can attract a few more allies, even the chairman of the board will not be able to impose too many restrictions on Zheng Yongwen, who is the chief executive officer and executive director.

While the Nasdaq is in the grip of winter, the plan to create a "Little Nasdaq" for the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is imminent. Su Yehao immediately agreed after hearing this and said that he would ask the partners of 5s Asset Management.

After he hung up the phone.

The little girl, half-asleep, reminded him, "Your phone is so loud, it's scary. Are we going out or not? If not, I'm going to sleep, I'm tired all day."

Su Yehao explained, "Brother Yong helped me earn more than a hundred million dollars again, which is more than a billion Hong Kong dollars, an office building! I'm so happy, how can we not celebrate?"

...

The next morning.

Su Yehao, half-asleep, went out to meet with the representatives of Bi Gui Yuan.

On the way, he was stopped by the traffic police because of the license plate issue. After the officer saw the unit that issued the pass, he immediately became alert and let him go.

The land acquired by Bi Gui Yuan this time is located near Bijia Mountain, not far from Luo Hu. Su Yehao plans to accept the invitation and inspect it.

Investing in industrial parks is unlikely, but acquiring land to invest in a few residential projects, or building another shopping mall, is not a problem.

Other companies currently lack the strength, and the shopping malls they build are often small and ordinary. If the location is right, and combined with office buildings, they can join hands with other companies to form a commercial district, which will be suitable for long-term rental.

Unlike other industries.

The real estate industry can use land and buildings as collateral. If only 20% of the own funds are used, it is equivalent to doing business with five times leverage, which makes it easy to achieve great things with little investment, and even greater things with greater investment.

Semiconductors, on the other hand, often require real money and silver to be invested, and the benefits are not visible for a while, and there is a possibility of losses.

Therefore, for the sake of balance, Su Yehao, after making money this time, has the idea of further investing in more high-end commercial real estate projects in the mainland, mainly concentrated in the central business districts of first-tier cities.

As for residential properties, Bi Gui Yuan and Sihai International are already doing it, so there is no need to repeat the investment...

The groundbreaking ceremony is mainly for socializing.

While Su Yehao was busy outside, Jiang Yu had just finished washing up and started putting on makeup.

If the TV programs didn't all speak Mandarin, which she wasn't used to hearing, she could have continued to sleep until noon. Now she decided to go out with the little girl for breakfast and find a shop selling rice noodle rolls or sticky rice chicken.

Holding an eyebrow pencil to shape her eyebrows, Jiang Yu asked in a low voice, "Nangong... you didn't use contraception last night, are we in the safe period now? Don't tell me you listened to the sweet talk Ahao fed you and really plan to have a baby now. Look in the mirror, we're both so young. The thought of being a mother is so stressful."

Seeing that she had discovered her little secret, Nangong Tian didn't panic at all and said with an awkward smile, "It's not that I definitely want one now, I'm planning to let nature take its course. My mom had me when she was twenty, and her waist was especially thin when she was in her thirties. It's true that the earlier you have a baby, the better the recovery."

Jiang Yu nodded after hearing this and continued, "Then you try first, I'll use you as a guinea pig. I can help take care of you when you're pregnant."

"No problem, but you should hurry up too. That playboy needs to be tied down with a child."

Nangong Tian said seriously, speaking from the heart.

She has been in love with Su Yehao for three years, and added to the fact that she was a little... excited last night, and her head was temporarily hot. Now, after careful consideration, she feels that having a child is not a bad thing.

Jiang Yu didn't think so far ahead. After listening, she sighed, "If there's no love and we have to rely on a child to maintain the relationship, then I'd rather break up. But some of my classmates in college are a year or two younger than me, and some of them have chosen to suspend their studies because of pregnancy. Has it really reached that age?"

Reaching out and tapping her head, Nangong Tian smiled and said, "What nonsense are you thinking? Brother Hao obviously likes you so much, how could he treat you badly? When we go back to Hong Kong, let's go for a check-up together and prepare in advance? There's a reward of one hundred million yuan~"

Jiang Yu pushed her away with a smile, "Wow! You're so mean, you're actually trying to lure me into this with benefits. A full one hundred million Hong Kong dollars, just give me a share after you give birth, finders keepers."

"You give birth yourself, the one hundred million is all yours. We can take the money to start another company to earn milk money for the children..."

Until then, the topic was still normal, but gradually they started talking about last night again, saying that someone had performed exceptionally well.

When girls get together, once they open up and start talking dirty, they are often more daring than men.

Originally, seeing that Nangong didn't want a child for the time being, Jiang Yu didn't take Su Yehao's words yesterday seriously.

Now that she discovered that the little girl had betrayed her, Jiang Yu couldn't help but overthink, worried that the future understanding would be broken, and even more worried that someone would favor the child in the future.

As for that one hundred million Hong Kong dollars, Jiang Yu didn't care so much.

Although her family's conditions were not that good, they were not bad either. Even if she couldn't come up with a hundred million in cash, her total assets had already reached that amount.

The two girls walked out hand in hand, got into the Mercedes-Benz Laurenser G55 AMG modified car that Su Yehao left for them, and headed to the city to find food and shop...
