Chapter 65: Moving to Hong Kong
I remember this clearly in this information. At that time, Li Shangji almost failed to enter the gambling industry because of this transaction. Later, he was lucky enough to get help from someone within his family to complete the transformation steps of entering the gambling industry and implementing industrial diversification.
The most disagreeable thing in the family with Li Shangji is the youngest son of his former parent, Li Shaolong, and Li Shangxue, who is known as a playboy. Li Shangxue is the most ostentatious guy in the Li family, and he is good at eating, drinking, gamble and versatile. He has expressed his dissatisfaction with Li Shangji as the president of the Li family at banquets of celebrities in business more than once.
At this point, Yi Fei savored it carefully, faintly noticed something interesting, and couldn't help but show a faint sneer. Li Shangxue was obviously dissatisfied with Li Shangji, and this might be a place to be exploited. Of course, with Yi Fei's current strength, it is far from threatening enough, so it's better to endure it.
The information about Li in this information is quite detailed, which is much better than what Qi Yuan got before. Although there are still some secret matters unknown, it is already quite rare.
When Yi Fei browsed the text on another document, he saw that it was full of Li's recent actions, such as where Li's recent investment in a resort villa, and where Li Rong kept his lover, etc.
In the last line, it was clearly stated that Li's family has recently officially intervened in the financial and stock markets and is preparing a lot of cash, intending to make trouble in the securities market. Yi Fei is not very convinced of this news. After all, the Li family is also a prominent family in Hong Kong. How could he risk being scolded in the securities market?
However, there must be a mystery in it, Yi Fei is sure of this. Thinking of this, he felt a little moved in his heart. Since Li Shangji dared to intervene in financial risks, it must be reasonable. Why don’t you take the opportunity to let the Li family make some money for him, and maybe you can also find an opportunity to play with the Li family.
However, Yi Fei quickly gave up this idea, and the current funds may not be enough. Two companies, two production lines, and factories, even if they are just initial investments, I believe they still need a lot of funds. After playing like this, I may not have much money to operate.
After hesitating for a moment, he immediately slapped the table and decided: "Old crazy, let's go to Hong Kong together. I hope to do something this time, maybe collect some interest and come back!"
Hong Kong is a world-famous international metropolis. Although the economic downturn caused by the financial crisis has continued in the past few years, it has undergone many good turns in recent years. Hong Kong people who are good at forgetting their unhappiness have left all their negative assets behind and continue to start their busy work.
This is the first time Yi Fei has been to Hong Kong at Hong Kong. After leaving the airport, he calmly looked at the city he had wanted to come to a long time ago, and couldn't help but feel very moved. He himself didn't expect that he seemed to have luck overnight, and he was lucky to enter the gambling world, lucky to be sent to Macau, lucky to be lucky to bet, lucky to win the gambling game, and gain the first pot of gold in his life.
Yi Fei really wanted to go to Hong Kong a long time ago. For his generation of people who grew up watching Hong Kong movies, Hong Kong is like a distant and out of reach. The background environment in the movie always seems to have a special charm, although everything may not be different.
"Lanlan, Mojia, let's go!" Yi Fei sighed for a moment, and felt that the feeling of satisfying what he had longed for was as if someone who had been thirsty in the desert for a few days suddenly drank water. It made people so comfortable, making Yi Fei feel the urge to let go of his arms and embrace everything.
Lan Lan happened to have an interview task, so she rushed over together. As for the kid Mo Jia, he encountered a fun toy like Yi Fei, of course he could not give up. After getting in the car, Yi Fei told the driver to drive slowly so that he could appreciate all the familiar and unfamiliar things. When the car drove a street, Yi Fei felt extremely familiar and quickly shouted to Qi Yuan happily: "This is the street in the Infernal Affairs!"
The journey was obviously very pleasant. After staying at Grand Hyatt Hotel, Lan Lan glanced at Yi Fei with pride. She saved money for the newspaper. After resting, Lan Lan went for an interview. Mo Jia didn't know what to do in the room, while Yi Fei was discussing something with Qi Yuan.
Feiyuan Company wants to move its registered location to Hong Kong. Of course, there will be no changes in the company's personnel and it is still located in Guangzhou. The two new companies must also be prepared in Hong Kong. It is very efficient to register a company in Hong Kong.
However, Yi Fei and Qi Yuan were not discussing this. They had already had a unified understanding of the past. Now they are arguing over equity, but in fact they can't be said to be a dispute. They can be settled in just a few words.
This is a very easy thing. There is nothing to worry about in the rest of your life. The most important thing is that they all understand each other's personalities and what they should do. Naturally, they understand the other's meaning in a few words, so there is no need to argue about anything.
Yi Fei took seventy, Qi Yuan took thirty. In fact, Yi Fei had nothing to hold everything in his hand. Qi Yuan firmly believed that if he asked Yi Fei for ten million, Yi Fei would definitely not give him a penny. This is the relationship between them, their trust and friendship.
What really made them argue was whether Feiyuan Company should have equity in Feituzhan. Originally, Yi Fei thought that there was no difference. Anyway, they were both bosses of the two companies. However, Qi Yuan definitely didn't think so. He was very thoughtful and persuaded Yi Fei: "It doesn't seem to matter now, but after the company grows up, it is likely to require financing or something. At that time, it is very likely to dilute the equity in our hands. Do you understand the danger of dilution of equity?"
Yi Fei smiled and looked at Qi Yuan. Qi Yuan, who was about 1.8 meters tall, was really funny, which really made him laugh. He soon laughed: "Old crazy, I really didn't expect that you are really doing it well now, but don't you think your expression is funny now?"
"Banana, you guava! I'll explain it to you here, and you dare to laugh at me..." Qi Yuande Yi Fei's reminder, and then he realized that his expression was really too nervous and funny. He suddenly became angry and punched Yi Fei hard: "Tell me the serious matter!"
"Okay, okay, just do it!" Yi Fei coughed lightly, restrained his smile, pondered for a moment, and then realized that Qi Yuan was saying it very well. It seemed that there was no difference on the surface, but if someone controlled Feiyuan in the future, it would mean that Feitu was indirectly controlled, which was a bad thing.
The whole thing was finalized like this, but it was not only the ones that bothered Yi Fei and Qi Yuan, but also the movements of the Li family. Looking through the information found by the detective, Yi Fei took a few glances and couldn't help but praise: "This detective is really amazing. Why not ask him to do business information for the company!"
Qi Yuan nodded and agreed with Yi Fei's opinion. Business news is obviously very important. Sometimes a single news can even change the fate of a company. The Li family's recent trends are indeed quite strange, but if you look closely, it would be normal.
Li Group recently founded a financial investment company, of course, it is actually selling stocks and so on. It seems that Li Shangji's diversification process was very smooth and he began to intervene in the financial industry smoothly. On the surface, for Li, financial investment seems to be not very profitable. However, don't forget that the Li family is a family business and has a certain network of relationships in Hong Kong and even the world. With its relationships and strength, there is a great hope for profit in this business.
The name of this financial company is Yinji. Li Shangji owns his own business and has a considerable shareholding. However, if you think about it, Li Shang is basically the president of the Li family, but he only has insignificant shares. It is not as much as Li Shangxue and others' shares, so that's understandable.
Yinji Finance’s first transaction was not to speculate in stocks, but to make copper futures in the futures market. Yesterday’s closing price of copper futures was more than 38,000 per meal, and a few days ago, Silverji sold 50 shorts. The number unit of one hand was five tons. In the futures market, it does not require the price of the commodity itself to be so much money. It only requires one-tenth of the price of the price as margin, which means that Yinji only invested about two million in cash in this move.
Yi Fei shook his head slightly. Before he came, he had a rough understanding of the futures market. There were indeed a lot of types, such as financial futures, commodity futures, etc., and the chief teacher was overwhelmed with the eyes. However, this was obviously not what he needed to care about.
What he cared about was that these two million were just a drop in the li family, and could only be said to be used to test it or play it. This time he came to Hong Kong, he was obviously a little disappointed. He had never done futures before, nor even any economic and financial transactions, so of course he would not be impulsive to think that he had the ability to do something.
"This time, we are in vain..." Yi Fei shook his head with a wry smile, but Qi Yuan waved his hand in disagreement: "That's not necessarily. Since we are here, let's take the opportunity to learn more here. Learning things is what we should do more!"
Qi Yuan's words make a lot of sense. Since we are here, why not learn more here? In fact, the domestic futures market is gradually forming, but it is not mature enough. Instead of doing it in China, it is better to do it in the international financial city of Hong Kong.
Futures is also a gamble, and it is also a gamble that emphasizes technology and luck. As long as you can master it, it is equivalent to victory. Soros back then was a financial crisis caused by speculation of exchange rates in the futures market.
Futures appear to avoid price risks and are generally divided into two types. One is commodity futures, such as futures such as copper and corn. Futures players basically buy and sell around the contract of the commodity, and do not really want to buy those goods.
Another type is financial futures. Financial futures can basically be called virtual economy, and they play with numbers in the stock market and foreign exchange market, such as index futures and foreign exchange futures. Compared with stocks, futures have greater risks. You can make money when you fall, and you can make money when you rise. This is the characteristic of futures.
After understanding all this, Yi Fei realized that futures are also another change model of gambling. It can be seen that gambling is absolutely correct in life. He is more interested in index futures. The Hong Kong Futures Exchange has launched a total of many index futures trading, such as the Hang Seng Index launched in the 1980s, and there are many index futures based on the Hang Seng Index, such as the H-share index futures.
Index futures reminded Yi Fei of the classic TV series "The Great Times". It turned out that he always thought that Fang Zhanbo and Ding Cai were playing stocks, but now he realized that they were playing index futures. This discovery really made him feel very emotional and amazed for a while.
Currently, the contract unit of Hong Kong Hang Seng Index Futures is a ticket, which requires a basic deposit of 45,000 yuan and a maintenance deposit of 35,000 yuan. The value calculation method of each ticket is floating, which is exactly where you make a profit by playing Hang Seng Index Futures.
For example, Yifei is currently buying a Hang Seng Index futures contract and becoming a long (i.e. a buyer), then when he sells this contract, or when the contract expires, the Hang Seng Index is 100 points higher than when he purchases it. Based on the base of each point of 50 Hong Kong dollars, it is a profit of 5,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Rather than having any secret to playing futures, it is better to say that you are betting on judgment, news, and luck. Futures are extremely susceptible to other factors affecting the price, so whether it is closing positions or hedging, you need to be very decisive. Therefore, if you encounter a terrifying stock market crash like in "The Great Times", short sellers (i.e. sellers, who are also betting on declines) will easily become rich overnight.
Just imagine, if Yi Fei holds 100 million Hong Kong dollars and uses this money to use index futures, he can short 1,200 contracts. If the Hang Seng Index falls by 1,000 points compared with the purchase price, he can make more than 60 million. If it falls more, he can make more.
Thinking of this, Yi Fei couldn't help but think of the top 100 games in Australia, and the odds of gambling are high. However, it is really hard to judge if there is any technology in gambling. The gambling skills are nothing more than news about the players. Such games are much more difficult to predict than football games.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the bookmakers would definitely not charge a huge bet of $10 million. However, competitions like the Top 100 are completely internal to the industry, which are not known to the whole world. Therefore, the bookmakers obviously cannot attract ordinary people to bet on game-oriented bets and play tricks that accumulate little to make more.
Bocai Company can set upper-limit betting and upper-limit compensation numbers in open gambling such as football games. At least the maximum compensation amount that Yifei knows is only 10 million US dollars, while the upper-limit betting amount is only 2 million.
In internal industry competitions such as the Top 100, bookmakers must not do that. This is completely different. Most of the people who can bet on the Top 100 are rich, and don’t ignore the power of professional gamblers. There are even many billionaires among them, such as Bollinger and Carson, who have billions of dollars. The last time, the bets from gamblers alone were as high as 800 million US dollars.
What cannot be ignored is that every session of billionaires are very interested in appreciating the competition, and many gambling players even pay high prices to ask the champion to teach themselves gambling skills. Each session is a bet from these billionaires, which is as high as one billion US dollars.
