After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 716 The Gap Between Heaven and Hell

Liu Cixin was scared away!

HK$72 billion paid in full at once!

Tianxing Financial Group to establish operations in Hong Kong!

Hong Kong is not large, with an area of ​​only 1114 square kilometers, which is 100 square kilometers smaller than Shanghai's Pudong New Area.

Perhaps it has been a long time since someone as influential as Lu Liang has been optimistic about the development of the Hong Kong market.

After all, apart from the high housing prices and being the only financial port on the mainland, Hong Kong is completely outclassed by its neighbor Shenzhen in every aspect.

So much so that even an hour after the joint press conference ended close to noon, vendors in the East Street Market were still discussing the matter.

However, mentioning Lu Liang and Tianxing Financial should only be mentioned incidentally, because before the midday break, the Hang Seng Index rose 4.64%, and successfully broke through 27000 points at the close.

Lu Liang once again proved with his strength that he is the uncrowned king of the financial market.

Meanwhile, on the 82nd floor of Phase 2 of the Plaza Building, in the conference room of Tianxing Quantitative Fund.

Lu Liang looked at Tang Caidie: "President Tang, I'm leaving the follow-up to Zhixiang Building to you."

Although the ownership transfer has been completed, there are still many small and medium-sized enterprises inside, so they have given Chinese Estates three months to clear the premises.

However, they won't just wait idly during this period. They will first tidy up the vacant floors and use them as temporary offices, and then repair or change the facade of each floor as needed.

We aim to have everything arranged by February of next year, at which time the Tianxing Phase III private equity fund will be settled, and the financial business in Shanghai will be completely concluded.

Tianxing Financial Group will also officially set sail.

As the group was talking, Xu Jiawei knocked on the door and entered. He smiled apologetically at them and walked over to Lu Liang, whispering, "Mr. Lu, Director Chen would like to invite you for afternoon tea."

"What time is it?"

Lu Liang smiled, fully aware of Chen Jiebin's intentions, since he hadn't allowed Sun Yutao to use the hidden funding channels.

Anyone with a bit of connections should be able to figure out who is cashing out once they notice a decrease in southbound capital inflows and do some further research.

Lu Liang could imagine that once the news leaked, he would be condemned by thousands and cursed by tens of thousands.

Just moments ago, they were full of praise, expressing their emphasis on Hong Kong's financial market, but then they cashed out at a high price.

As expected, a barrage of insults and abuses will come from people who are wealthy, two-faced, and treacherous.

As a supporter of their move to Hong Kong, Chan Kit-bun has even been accused of forcing Lau to leave, and will also be implicated as a result.

“Three o’clock!” Xu Jiawei replied.

"Tell Director Chen to reschedule for 4:30. Tell him I have something to do and I'm still busy."

Lu Liang's smile remained unchanged. Hong Kong stocks closed at 4 PM, and the next two days, Saturday and Sunday, would allow the news to spread more effectively.

Once the verification is completed and a conclusion is reached, then his trip to Hong Kong is aimed at dominating the market.

A ruler doesn't need friends, only the submission of his subjects; he doesn't care about bearing some infamy.

Anyway, there will be more dramatic moments like "one yang piercing three yin" in the future, and its superior market position will remain unshaken.

Xu Jiawei nodded, intending to leave.

Suddenly, Lu Liang stopped him again: "Contact Li Zhe Kai and have him reach a transaction cooperation with Chinese Estates through Tianxing Financial, or find any excuse to hold a banquet tonight and say that I want to meet these powerful families."

After finishing the important business, let the dust settle for a while, and also take care of some trivial matters, such as Li Zhe-kai's brother, Li Zhe-ju, the current head of Cheung Kong Holdings.

According to Xu Jiawei's investigation, neither of the two brothers actually did anything wrong under Lu Liang's name; it was just that Li Zheju intentionally tried to win over those who had been unable to reach Lu Liang.

If Lu Liang continues to let things slide and focuses his business on the international market, Chen Jiebin's concerns may come true in time.

Although the Big D Society, represented by Uncle Tong and Liu, has been destroyed, a new organization, represented by the Li brothers, may rise in his name.

"Yes, Mr. Lu."

After Xu Jiawei left, Lu Liang looked at Liang Wenhui and asked with a smile, "President Liang, can the AI ​​quantitative model be put into use?"

Having received a definite answer, Lu Liang squinted and said, "In the afternoon, we'll start by operating in the Hong Kong stock market. We'll input short-selling directional orders. We'll keep $30 billion in the account, and pour all $170 billion into it."

He not only wanted to make a quick profit by going long, but also wanted to make another quick profit by going short. However, whether he went long or short, it was all a means to disrupt the market.

Lu Liang wanted to verify the attitudes of the government and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, whether they would turn a blind eye to his market manipulation.

If they choose to ignore it, then all of Lu Liang's previous speculations will be true, and the next step should be to target HSBC.

Since I'm new to this place, I'll strike first in the face; if I'm going to gnaw, I'll gnaw on the toughest bone.

By attacking HSBC's authority, Tianxing Financial can also solidify its position in the Hong Kong market. Lu Liang believes this is something the country would like to see.

Before the handover, HSBC was already a British-owned giant, and two-thirds of Hong Kong's financial market belonged to HSBC.

After the handover, the market, which had been dominated by one company, was split into three: Bank of China, HSBC, and Standard Chartered.

HSBC's discontent is nothing new; just last month, they leaked Hayes's documents, leading to Meng Wanqiu's arrest.

The various factions among the people are all equal; whoever wins, or whoever has a chance of winning, they will help.

First, make a mess of things for the British-owned companies, and then the lower-ups will start to have all sorts of thoughts.

At that time, whether they were inherently rebellious or two-faced opportunists, Lu Liang would accept them all and could slowly train them later.

"Mr. Li, go and help out wherever you see areas that need assistance. Let's arrange it like this for now."

Lu Liang gave Li Junwei some final instructions, then ended the meeting and went to the innermost office of the company.

"Mr. Li, it's all good."

Tang Caidie glanced at Li Junwei, smiled gently, and tidied up the documents and materials on the table.

She noticed that Li Junwei wanted to ask several times, and even almost uttered the word "wei," but he swallowed it back in the end.

That's good. As long as they can suppress their doubts and not question Lu Liang's decision, it means that they are destined to work together for a long time.

"President Lu, what is the purpose of doing this?" Li Junwei smiled bitterly, unable to guess Lu Liang's thoughts, which made him feel very frustrated.

"do not know."

Tang Caidie smiled and shook her head, then thought for a moment and said, "Talk to President Sun more often, you should gain something from it."

After saying goodbye to Liang Wenhui, she headed to Zhixiang Building. Working under Lu Liang meant using her hands more and thinking less.

Anyway, when it's time for them to use their brains, Lu Liang will always give them a heads-up in advance. They should just do what he says normally.

Li Junwei watched Tang Caidie's departing figure, then looked at Liang Wenhui: "President Liang, aren't you curious?"

"Huh?" Liang Wenhui seemed to snap out of a daze, absentmindedly saying, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going."

With $1.5 million in dividends from Magic Square Technology, he has no time to think about anything else.

Right now, I just want to get the quantitative model into use, then rush back to Hangzhou to focus on researching large-scale AI models.

Liang Wenhui also left. Li Junwei sighed helplessly, "Perhaps the person who should make the most changes is me."

Hong Kong stocks reopened at 1 p.m.

If you view the market using a trading software written in Traditional Chinese, you will see the entire market divided into three sectors, presenting a scene that makes you feel as if you are in a national forest.

The city is covered in lush greenery, and out of 9820 stocks, the number of decliners is less than three digits, while the rate of increase is 98.5%, demonstrating an extremely strong profit-making effect.

However, as time went on, the number of stocks in positive territory increased, and the market experienced an extremely exaggerated trend of opening high and closing low, which almost covered the entire Hong Kong stock market.

"why?"

"In the end what happened?"

"What happened to the bull market I was promised? I just added to my position and this is the result? They're only eyeing the pittance in my account?"

"Isn't Tianxing Financial Group moving into Hong Kong? This should be incredibly good news, right?"

At 3:30 PM, with only 30 minutes left until the close of trading today and this week, the number of stocks in the Hong Kong stock market that are rising or falling is now evenly split.

The morning's surge has vanished, and panic is spreading through the market, as if the entire market is being shorted by a powerful force.

It also awakened long-dormant memories for some veteran stock market investors. They still remember October 23, 1997, the day the Hang Seng Index fell by 10.4%. Many people also died.

At 3:40, the last twenty minutes before the market closes.

The share prices of several leading stocks, including Tencent, SMIC, and HSBC Holdings, also couldn't hold up and turned from green to red again.

The entire market, across all three trading sectors, experienced an extremely dramatic and widespread plunge from a high vantage point.

In the morning, there were 9820 stocks in the city, with only a few stocks declining. But by this time, the number of stocks rising had dwindled to less than three digits.

The dramatic fall from heaven to hell caught countless investors off guard.

They were bewildered and didn't know what had happened; all they knew was that their account balances were dwindling.
