Chapter 516 I don't want to live anymore

New York, Hilton Hotel.

In the evening, Wei Dong stood on the balcony outside the guest room, looking at the Times Square not far away, then stood on tiptoe, tremblingly glanced at the green belt of the hotel below. An idea of ​​wanting to fly free.

He lost too badly this time. He brought in 20 billion funds from the United States, but now there are only less than [-] million left. Such a big shortfall cannot be filled even if he is sold.

"Forget it, it should hurt..."

After struggling for a long time, Wei Dong still couldn't make up his mind to jump.

Better to die than to live.

"Why it is like this?"

Ever since he invested money in U.S. stocks, he has been on the line between two points and one line. He would go in and squat when the trading hall opened, and come back to sleep when the market was closed.Seeing that the stock is getting more and more popular day by day, he certainly has no interest in doing anything else.

"Jingle Bell……"

Wei Dong was startled by the sudden ringing of the bell, and he picked up the mobile phone on the table with complicated emotions.

The debt collector is here?

A strange thought flashed through Wei Dong's mind.

He opened the lid and pressed the answer button.

The call was from Chen Jinxia.

"Hey, husband, what are you doing? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"

Hearing Chen Jinxia's voice, Wei Dong felt a little guilty and sad, and wanted to hold Chen Jinxia and cry aloud.

He took a deep breath, tried to adjust his emotions, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, I'm watching TV, I didn't hear it."

On the other end of the phone, Chen Jinxia also breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's good that it's okay. You, you have been away for so many days, and you don't know how to call back. Don't you know that I am worried about you?"

Wei Dong lied and said: "There is a time difference here, I am afraid to call to disturb your rest."

Afterwards, a struggling expression appeared on Wei Dong's face, and after a while, as if he had decided on something, he said in a tone of confession: "Honey, I feel like I can't live anymore."

On the other end of the phone, Chen Jinxia, ​​who had just put her heart back into her stomach, immediately exclaimed, "What's going on? Old Wei, don't be impulsive. We can figure out a solution together if there is anything wrong."

Wei Dong looked desperate, but his tone was surprisingly calm: "13 billion shortfall, how can we find a solution?"

"13 billion?"

Hearing this figure, Chen Jinxia almost fainted from fright, and quickly asked: "What's going on? Where did the 13 billion shortfall come from? Didn't you say that it's a sure thing?"

Wei Dong took a deep breath and said, "In the beginning, there was really no problem. In the first few days, I also saw that it was rising fiercely and made a lot of money, so I continued to invest in it. But no I don’t know what’s going on, the stock market suddenly crashed. These days, people jump off buildings on Wall Street every day.”

Chen Jinxia was terrified when she heard it, but she didn't understand US stocks. When she heard the word jumping off a building, she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. After so many years, how could you suddenly say that you collapsed?"

Wei Dong said with a painful face: "I don't know, everything happened so suddenly..."

At this moment, the news about Lu Yiming being taken away this morning to assist in the investigation was suddenly broadcast on the TV that was turned on.

Wei Dong's gaze was immediately attracted by the content on the TV.

After watching the news, he felt as if he had been struck by thunder. He fixed his eyes on Lu Yiming in the picture, and cursed: "I knew it was weird, but you actually did it?"

Lu Yiming!

It's Lu Yiming again!

Wei Dong couldn't believe it, he even came to the United States, why did he still fall into Lu Yiming's hands?
On the other end of the phone, Chen Jinxia heard Wei Dong yelling, feeling worried and curious at the same time, and quickly asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Wei Dong looked hysterical and yelled into the phone: "The news is out. It was Lu Yiming who shorted Nasdaq's Internet companies, which directly brought down the entire US stock market! He has now been taken away by the FBI."

Chen Jinxia was shocked, but also couldn't believe it: "Lu Yiming has such great ability? Impossible?"

Wei Dong, who found the culprit, was extremely angry at this moment: "The news has been reported, and everyone has been arrested. What is impossible? Will the United States still wrong people?"

Chen Jinxia felt that this was a good opportunity to persuade Wei Dong, and immediately said together with the enemy: "I didn't expect it to be this Lu Yiming again! What kind of enmity does our family have against him? Is he going to make things difficult for us? Husband, you must not You have the idea of ​​committing suicide, otherwise you will be laughed at by Lu Yiming until your death!"

"You must keep your spirits up, you must frustrate his spirit, and don't let him be a villain! Husband, I believe you can do it!"

Wei Dong was indeed inspired by his wife's words, and the seeds of hatred overwhelmed the idea of ​​suicide.He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, I will never let him have the last laugh!"

Seeing Wei Dong's hatred, Chen Jinxia felt relieved, and said, "Husband, you can do it boldly, I will always support you."

"it is good."

"Then let's do this first, it's getting late, I'm going to bed, you take good care of yourself over there."

"Ah."

Wei Dong hung up the phone, sat on the sofa, watched the news on TV, the more he thought about it, the more he hated it, his fists were clenched, his eyes were like lightning: "Lu Yiming! You are everywhere!"

He had never hated a person so much. If it was jealousy and unwillingness to deal with Lu Yiming before, Wei Dong had already regarded Lu Yiming as his sworn enemy.

Although he really wants to kill Lu Yiming right now, but he is in the United States now, and domestic resources and connections are not available here, so he has no chance of revenge on Lu Yiming.

Just as he was feeling impotent and furious about it, the phone rang.

Wei Dong pressed the answer button and yelled angrily, "Who is it?"

On the phone, there was a perfect accent in American English: "I, George Soros."

"Soros? The founder of Quantum Fund, an international financial giant, Soros?"

Wei Dong was so surprised that he even stood up involuntarily, and asked a little nervously, "Mr. Soros, what do you want from me?"

He didn't feel that he was qualified to deal with a big man like Soros.

Soros said bluntly: "I need your help with a man."

Wei Dong frowned, not knowing what George Soros was doing for a while.

Soros, the international financial tycoon, still needs Wei Donglai to help him deal with others?
Is this reasonable?

Even Wei Dong wondered if this was a scam call, but he still couldn't bear the curiosity in his heart and asked, "Who do you want me to help you deal with?"

"Lu Yiming."

"Who? Lu Yiming!"

Wei Dong's voice suddenly rose an octave.

In the new villa, the sun shines through the windows.

Lu Yiming woke up naturally after sleeping. When he got up to eat breakfast, he saw Li Yiwen with two dark circles under his eyes, and asked curiously, "Hey, what's the matter with you? Are you not used to sleeping in a new place?"

Seeing Lu Yiming's refreshed look, Li Yiwen couldn't help complaining immediately: "What time is it, can you still sleep?"

Lu Yiming said disapprovingly: "Why can't I sleep? I have made almost as much money as I should have earned during this trip to the United States. I eat and drink well every day, so I feel great!"

Li Yiwen rubbed his face vigorously, and looked at Lu Yiming with a depressed expression: "You are big enough, you can treat this as nothing happened."

Lu Yiming smiled and said, "Calm down, it's just a small scene, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

At this time, Zhao Tiezhu suddenly walked in and said: "Mr. Lu, someone came to visit."

Lu Yiming frowned and asked, "Who? Is it the FBI or the red neck?"

Zhao Tiezhu said: "It's Wei Dong."

"Huh? Wei Dong?"

Lu Yiming couldn't figure it out now, Wei Dong traveled thousands of miles to America to find him?
What picture?

Figure 160?
"You let him in."

After a while, Wei Dong walked in, and Lu Yiming walked over and took his hand enthusiastically and said, "Ah, Mr. Wei! It's true that we don't meet each other anywhere in life. I didn't expect that we could get together in a foreign country. What a coincidence."

Wei Dong showed a bitter smile: "Boss Lu was joking. You are so powerful in the American stock market. How can I compare with you. No, I am in trouble, so I have to come to you for help."

"Yo? Rescue? What can I save? Mr. Wei is joking, you have friends all over the world, even if you are in the United States, you must not be fighting alone, right? Do you still need to ask an idler like me for help?"

Meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land, although the relationship between the two of them has not yet reached the level of an "old acquaintance", but after meeting each other anyway, Lu Yiming can't be too indifferent.

Although Wei Dong has secretly attacked Lu Yiming several times, after all, the matter has not been revealed, and his face has not been torn, so Lu Yiming does not know at this time that Wei Dong has already regarded him as the greatest enemy in his life.

Looking at Lu Yiming's high-spirited face, Wei Dong felt great hatred in his heart, but on the surface he put on a wry smile, shook his head and said, "Mr. Lu, I really don't know where I live in the United States, and I have no relatives, so I can't help it." Don’t have the audacity to come to ask for help. Since everyone is from Xia Kingdom, you have to give me a hand!”

Lu Yiming stared at Wei Dong, and after hearing his answer, he said calmly, "Oh, Mr. Wei, please don't say that. We are all from China. If we can help, I will definitely help you. Tell me Let's see, what difficulties have you encountered?"

Wei Dong then truthfully told the story of his failure in stock trading.

Afterwards, he said earnestly, "Now, with a principal of 20 billion, I have only lost more than [-] million. If I just return to China in such a disheveled manner, I will not be able to explain to the investors behind me. So, I came here this time to learn from you, Mr. Lu, and at the same time, I also hope that you can lend a helping hand and borrow a sum of money."

Before Lu Yiming could speak, Wei Dong went on to say, "Don't worry, I won't take the money for nothing. I will use the shares of the Yongjin Department as collateral. If we get through this time, this kindness must be remembered in my heart. In the future, Mr. Lu, you But I will never refuse when I have an assignment.”

Lu Yiming fell into deep thought.

In business, many friends have many paths.

What's more, the Yongjin Department is still very famous in China. Not only is it strong, but the key is that it has a wide network of contacts. If you can make friends with Wei Dong and invest in a company in the Yongjin Department, there will be countless benefits.

Li Yiwen next to him was also a little moved when he heard that Wei Dong was willing to take the shares of the Yongjin Department as collateral.

After all, he is Lu Yiming's accountant. Lu Yiming only knows that the Yongjin Department is pretty awesome, but Li Yiwen clearly knows how awesome the Yongjin Department is.

In his opinion, Wei Dong was indeed sincere this time.

But what Li Yiwen and Wei Dong didn't expect was that after thinking for a while, Lu Yiming showed a embarrassed expression: "Mr. Wei, it's not that I don't want to help you, but you have also seen my current situation. There is really nothing I can do to help you."

There are already tens of millions of grass and mud horses running wildly in Wei Dong's heart-you have turned the world upside down in the US stock market, and the news has said that the profit you made this time will be worth a billion dollars. Now tell me you Can't help?
However, right now, Wei Dong couldn't show his cards to Lu Yiming, so he immediately begged bitterly: "Mr. Lu, they say that there are four great joys in life, and you can't just leave your life behind when you meet an old friend in a foreign land. You are the richest man, how could you be worth more than a billion yuan?" Can't even take it out?"

Lu Yiming didn't answer Wei Dong's words at all, instead he complained to him: "Mr. Wei, you don't know. FBI, you know? I made some money in the US stock market, and they are not happy. Just ask the FBI to get me. Although there is no official arrest, I can only stay in this villa and cannot go out, which is like house arrest."

"As for the money I earned from the stock market, it's still lying in the account of the Saltwater Fund Company, and I can't move it at all."

Regarding Lu Yiming's prevarication, Wei Dong didn't believe it at all: "How is it possible?"

This is completely true, so Lu Yiming is very confident: "How is it impossible? If you don't believe it, you can go to the Saltwater Fund or the FBI to ask. If I have a punctuation that deceives you, I'll just take out 20 billion dollars and give it to you for nothing, right?"

Lu Yiming's words had already reached this point, and Wei Dong had no choice but to get up and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first."

Lu Yiming nodded slightly, and shouted, "Tie Zhu, see off the guests."

As soon as Wei Dong left, Li Yiwen asked curiously: "Why didn't you agree to him? Do you have a grudge against him?"

Lu Yiming rolled his eyes and said, "I haven't met him a few times, so what kind of enmity can there be?"

"Then you don't like him?"

Lu Yiming laughed directly: "He is not as handsome as I am, he is not as young as I am, and he is not even as rich as I am. Why do I dislike him?"

"Then why don't you help him? It's good to be able to get into Yongjin Department."

Lu Yiming said suddenly: "I asked him a question just now, asking if he has any other friends and contacts in the United States. How did he answer?"

Li Yiwen was puzzled, and immediately recalled the scene just now in his mind: "He said he just came to the United States, and he didn't know the place of life well. This is normal. Is there anything wrong?"

Lu Yiming patted Li Yiwen on the shoulder and said, "Cousin, let me tell you, in this person's life, he can be short of anything, but he must not be short of heart."

Li Yiwen glanced at Lu Yiming, and said in a bad tone, "You say I'm short-hearted?"

Lu Yiming immediately waved his fingers to analyze for Li Yiwen: "Look, we only lived here yesterday, and Alex Acosta kept saying that no one would disturb me and that he would keep me safe. Logically speaking, Few people should know that I live here, right?"

Li Yiwen recalled it, was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat, and suddenly realized: "Yes, we moved here, even the reporter didn't know, how did he know!?"

Seeing that Li Yiwen understood the crux of the problem, Lu Yiming let out a long sigh, and said coldly: "Wei Dong came to me suddenly, someone must have told him that I am here. And this person knows where I live now, so he has all the eyes. Wei Dong is asking me for advice and asking me to borrow money, no matter whether he really needs help or has other plans, I just need to stay the same to cope with all changes."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yiming stood up and said with emotion: "Everything in this world, when it comes to critical moments, it's all about doing more and making more mistakes, doing less and making fewer mistakes, it's not bad if I don't do anything. As long as I don't do anything now, no one can catch me My handle, since this is the case, you say that I have to take the risk to help him when I am full?"

Li Yiwen took it seriously: "You are right, at this time, we really should stay still and not move."

new work time.

In an upscale bar not far from the New York Stock Exchange, George Soros told Cliff Asness and James Chanos: "The plan failed, and Lu Yiming was not fooled."

James Chanos regretted this very much: "That Wei Dong, whenever Lu Yiming gives him money or advises him which stocks to buy, we can use the prepared recordings to collect evidence to testify against him for insider trading. He didn't fall for it, could it be that he has a bad relationship with that Wei Dong?"

Soros was also a little unwilling: "I originally planned to let Wei Dong get the money from Lu Yiming, and then go short of Microsoft. In this way, based on the relationship between Lu Yiming and Bill Gates, he can be accused of related transactions. Well, after the incident gets serious, even the people behind him can't keep him. It's a pity that he seems to be very vigilant and didn't fall into the trap we set up."

Cliff Asnes yelled, "This Wei Dong is such a waste, he can't even do this little thing well."

Then he looked at George Soros: "What shall we do next?"

George Soros sighed: "There is no way, with Alex Acosta and Epstein watching, many of our shady methods cannot be used on Lu Yiming, and now we can only use public opinion Work hard and hope a miracle will happen.”

Cliff Asness and James Chanos looked indignant after hearing this.

"Lu Yiming is so shameless, he actually found a protective umbrella in advance!"

"That's right, otherwise it's just a person from the Xia Kingdom, and if he is arrested directly, shouldn't he be dealt with casually?"

In their view, Xia people who refuse to be slaughtered obediently are not good Xia people.

In the next few days, Wei Dong, who was still unwilling to give up, came to see Lu Yiming several times a day, which made Lu Yiming tireless, and directly closed the door to thank the guests, not bothering to see him.

A few days later, Zhao Tiezhu suddenly said to Lu Yiming: "I found someone to follow Wei Dong secretly, and found that there were indeed people who were in secret contact with him, but in order to avoid alarming the enemy, there is no way to know the identity of those people for the time being."

Lu Yiming waved his hand: "This is the United States, it's enough to do this. Now we should not act rashly, so as not to get burned. When they make the first move, we will see the situation. Soldiers will block it, and water will cover it."

"Alright Mr. Lu."

Lu Yiming touched the stubble on his chin, and he was also very puzzled: "This Wei Dong, didn't he say that he was very arrogant before? Why is he willing to be driven by others now? Is it because he lost money? Who are the people behind him? Who is it? And what are their plans for me?"

All kinds of doubts lingered in Lu Yiming's mind, which made him puzzled.
