After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 584 Lu Liang’s Good Friend
"Oh~ My dear old friend, I was busy just now. I'm sorry that I didn't answer your call the first time."

Lu Liang smiled and imitated C6's dubbed accent.

Under normal circumstances, even when he is trading, he will not turn off his mobile phone, but will only give it to his secretary in case of emergencies.

But tonight was an exception, because he knew Wilson would call and would try his best to contact him, even if he was busy.

So in order not to affect their friendship, Lu Liang chose to avoid it. Not answering the call was just a surprise and did not mean rejection.

“Are you busy shorting Tesla?”

Wilson asked with a colder expression, and the smile on Lu Liang's face gradually disappeared: "Are you questioning me?"

Wilson was silent for a long time, then he said in a slightly slower tone: "I'm not questioning you, I just want to understand the situation."

Lu Liang narrowed his eyes and suddenly smiled: "The feedback on our new car is very good. If I don't take this opportunity to short Tesla, I don't think God will forgive me."

He added: "Carmon, I know you supported Tesla, but business is business, I will go wherever there is profit."

"To be honest, I am not optimistic about Tesla's performance in the future electric vehicle market. Besides, its market value has increased tenfold in the past two years, so it is time for a correction."

Lu Liang spoke with certainty, saying that just like shorting Tesla, he had no selfish motives at all and it was all for the profit of the private equity fund.

JPMorgan Chase also participated in the fourth private placement, and Wilson was the head of the investment department, so they should be able to understand him.

Wilson pondered for a moment and said, "Lu, since you are so pessimistic about Tesla's future, JPMorgan Chase can buy as much as it can at $1200 per share."

He was testing Lu Liang's intentions. If he took the money and left, he was just greedy. If he refused, he would be rebellious and not on the same side as them.

He also wanted to know what Lu Liang's purpose was in founding Tianxing Automobile, as an investor or an entrepreneur?
Investors are welcome, but entrepreneurs will sooner or later be on the opposite side given the current trade frictions.

"Kamon, you really know how to give me a hard time."

Lu Liang sighed, appealed to her emotions, and explained to her: "Don't you know what the most ideal short-selling situation is?"

"It means that you have bargaining chips in your hands, and you can also borrow chips from institutions. In this way, you can be invincible by nature."

He knew very well that because of Da Qiangzi's matter, the matter had been delayed for more than a year, and now it was time to make a new choice.

But he couldn't bear to do so. It was really comfortable to have the best of both worlds, to eat from both sides without offending either side.

"If you want to short sell again in the future, you can also borrow chips from us. We can provide as many as you want."

The U.S. stock market model is like raising Gu. Tesla is just a larger Gu king among them, but not the only one.

As long as they have the chips in their hands, they have the initiative, and Wilson is not worried about Lu Liang launching a surprise attack.

He paused for a few seconds and then added: "Of course, you can reject me, but I will be very sad."

"You are my good friend. We have known each other for so long. How can I bear to make you sad?"

Lu Liang still wanted to get away with it by being sloppy, but Wilson wouldn't give in and kept asking questions.

He just wanted to know whether Lu Liang was willing to sell it.

If he wants, he can take a plane now and arrive in the Magic City at noon tomorrow.

"More than six million shares, Kamon, are you sure JPMorgan Chase can take so many?"

Lu Liang pretended to be hesitant, but the corners of his mouth raised, revealing a mysterious smile.

If Xiao Mo wants it, why not sell it to him? He suddenly had a very good idea.

"Even if it's double, that's fine."

Wilson's tone suddenly became light. He had always liked Lu Liang and was reluctant to make enemies with him.

The kind of love between men and women, I still remember the first time I fought him three years ago.

At that time, Lu Liang was unknown, but three years later, he had grown into a capital giant.

It can be said that he watched Lu Liang develop step by step, and his feelings for him grew deeper and deeper.

Sooner or later, Lu Liang will die in his hands. The happiest time for fruit farmers is the harvest season.

That day is coming soon.

"Then come over tomorrow. We haven't seen each other for a long time."

After finishing the call with Wilson, Lu Liang walked into the trading room and waved to Sun Yutao who was busy: "Closing the stall, take inventory."

Sun Yutao was stunned: "Mr. Lu, are you no longer going to maintain the subsequent market conditions?"

Tesla will fall tonight because Tianshu has a high volume of locked orders, which will have an impact on the sales of Maodou 3, but the drop should not be as much as eight points.

While Lu Liang was out on the phone, the bullish forces kept counterattacking and trying to restore the market, but without exception, they were suppressed.

If we close the stall now and no longer maintain the subsequent market conditions, we will at least lose two or three points of profit that we should have earned.

"A rebound of two or three points is nothing more than an extra 10 or 20 dollars per share, which is just a few dollars."

Lu Liang's smile remained unchanged: "I found a good seller for these chips, one share for $1200."

Sun Yutao's eyes widened in astonishment. "1200 US dollars? A premium of 17.77%. Where did this sucker come from?"

Lu Liang looked displeased, glared at him, and said teasingly with a smile on his face: "Don't say that about my good friend."

He sat on the front line, personally supervising the 'closing of the stall', the smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a gloomy look.

Although the new plan is good, it would be a sign of compromise now. He cannot do this and be so blindly loyal that he does not leave himself any way out.

The relationship with Wall Street cannot be severed, at least not now.

"Old Ma, Old Ma..."

Lu Liang thought of Jack Ma and suddenly understood his feelings. Although the two chose different paths, they faced basically the same difficulties.

But Lu Liang is still wavering, trying to buy time for his wavering, while Lao Ma has already taken action.

At 1:30 in the morning, Sun Yutao finished the statistics.

120 million shares were used tonight, the cost price was US$1120, and the closing price was US$1025.

Without using leverage, the profit was a small $95 per share, 120 million shares, and a net profit of $1.14 million.

The holdings are counted at 620 million shares. If the transfer is completed at US$1200, it will be US$74.4 billion.

The company has US$29.55 billion in liquid funds on its account, % of which comes from its previous investment in Tesla.

Finally, there are futures worth $42.5 billion, which have been lurking in the gold market since the RMB fell below 6.8.

Finally, there are still Bitcoin holdings worth $1.02 million, and this money is purely leftover profit.

They had no shortage of funds, and Bitcoin had been falling, so Sun Yutao simply kept it and let the newcomers practice.

In the huge fluctuations in the market every day, sell high and buy low to reduce costs.

Because they assisted Tokyo Wenchao in shorting Bitcoin, they made $4.2 million that time.

Due to the withdrawal of 90% of the principal and profits, the position is now worth 1.02 million Bitcoins, but it still shows a loss.

However, as long as you don't sell at a loss for one day, the loss in the account is only a temporary floating loss and can be closed out slowly.

The final statistics showed that their total assets in the financial market reached 148.61 billion US dollars.

There is also NIO's 9.5% and Li Auto's 14.8%. The former has not yet reached the lock-up period and the latter has not yet gone public, so they are not included in the statistics.

After three years of development, Tianxing Private Equity is no longer like before, where it only focused on a single market.

Now they are involved in stocks, futures, foreign exchange, and cryptocurrencies, and are becoming more and more like a mature and formal medium-sized fund company.

The financial circle simply divides funds into three levels: funds with around one billion are small, funds with around tens of billions are medium-sized, and funds with over one hundred billion are large, such as BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street.

Sun Yutao couldn't help but look at Lu Liang. In fact, they had all the prerequisites to become a large fund.

But the boss is not interested in this and has been making small electric cars. After making hundreds of billions, he doesn't want to go any further.

"Is the fourth installment of $3 billion due in July this year?"

Lu Liang looked through the documents and saw that the settlement time for the third phase was in mid-February next year.

The previous first and second phases, as well as the later fourth phases, were all settled in one year, but the third phase was settled in three years.

But three years passed in the blink of an eye, and only ten months were left.

Sun Yutao replied: "Yes, July 18th."

Lu Liang said to himself: "It's still in time."

He signed the accounting report, handed it to Sun Yutao, and said with a smile: "Let's go, you should also go to bed early."

The fourth phase of the fund will be settled in July this year, and the third phase of the fund will be settled in February next year.

After that, he didn't plan to start the movement in Shanghai anymore. Lu Liang wanted to go to Hong Kong in the south.

It is the place where offshore RMB is settled, and financial regulations will be relatively more liberal.

The Magic City can no longer provide any help to the development of private equity, but may even restrict it.

He needs a bigger and better stage.

At 2:30 in the morning,
Lu Liang returned to Greentown Huangwan.

The house was brightly lit, as if it were daytime, and occasionally the sound of crisp bells could be heard.

"Mr. Lu, Madam just coaxed Miss to sleep and went back to her room to rest, but Miss suddenly woke up again."

Nanny Aunt Zhou was in the baby room, playing with the little one with toys. When she saw Lu Liang coming, she hurriedly explained the reason.

Babies need to sleep for a long time every day, but their sleep schedule is very unstable, and it is common for them to suddenly become full of energy in the middle of the night.

At half past twelve, Su Wanyu had just coaxed the little guy to sleep and went back to her room to rest. As a result, the little guy woke up again after only sleeping for two and a half hours.

Lu Liang nodded in understanding, went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into pajamas, and said with a smile: "Aunt Zhou, you should also go to bed early. I will play with her for a while."

Like a big kid, he pounced on the baby castle that Su Wanyu had carefully prepared, lay on the soft carpet, picked up the little guy and put him on his chest, and asked with a smile: "Will you still call me daddy?"

"Pa pa~" The little guy showed his pink gums and patted Lu Liang's cheek excitedly.

At nine months old, he can already pronounce words, and has a vague sense that "Ba Ba" refers to the person in front of him.

"You are so young, but how can you be so strong? It seems that your mother has been bullied by you a lot."

Lu Liang got angry and buried his head in the little girl's arms, sniffing the milk fragrance, which made her giggle.

"Mr. Lu, I'll go back to my room first. Please call me if you need anything." Nanny Aunt Zhou said with a smile.

"Go ahead, thank you for your hard work."

At 4:30 in the morning, the little guy couldn't stand Lu Liang anymore and finally fell asleep on his chest.

"Little guy, you weren't even born when I was staying up late."

Lu Liang showed a smug smile, stroked his chubby cheek, and pulled up the quilt to cover the little guy and himself.

Afraid that he would crush her when he turned over in the middle of the night, he specially chose a place close to the wall: "Daddy is sleepy too, good night."
