Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

After settling matters in Beijing, he set off for Hong Kong to oversee operations. His fifty-one bodyguards had already obtained work visas and were going with him.

The filming of "Dinosaur Park" is almost finished, and he wants to go and take a look. "Dinosaur Park" will be released worldwide this summer. It is a key project for Universal Pictures, so he wants to go and see it.

When this group of people appeared in Hong Kong, it was quite a surprise. Each and every one of them was naturally different from ordinary people.

They were quite willing to follow Zhang San, not for any other reason than that, if they followed Zhang San for at most two more years, their income would be enough to go back home, build houses, and get married. Among this group of people, only Captain Luo had a wife and children; the others did not.

The car that picked them up was parked outside the airport. It takes some time to get from Kai Tak Airport to Purdue Road.

On the bus, most people were relaxed, not for any other reason than that they felt nothing would happen once they entered the city. However, Captain Luo said into the walkie-talkie, "Hong Kong is very chaotic, with all sorts of gangs. They are very ruthless, so you need to be prepared at all times."

The fifty bodyguards, who had been excitedly looking out the window, also became serious. The area outside the car was indeed bustling, but as they passed through some alleys, they saw some scenes that needed to be kept quiet. Sure enough, there was a fight.

On the bus, Captain Luo continued his lecture: "Hong Kong is a highly developed capitalist world that can corrupt people's hearts. The boss pays us very high salaries so that we can share the boss's burdens and not do anything wrong."

When they reached Poole Road at the top of the mountain and saw the mansion, they finally understood what Luo meant by the highly developed capitalist world.

By then, servants had already arrived and quickly arranged everything for them, including their accommodations.

Zhang San also has two other villas nearby, so he arranged for them to be stationed in those places in batches. Eighteen people were left in the main villa to work in three shifts.

After a day of rest, Zhang San started working at the New Era Financial Center, beginning his life of diligent work in Hong Kong.

"Mr. Zhang, since the Hong Kong stock market broke through 10,000 points last year, as per your request, we have been shorting Hang Seng Index futures and selling half of our stock positions. By the end of last year, after we completed the liquidation, we still had two-thirds of our stocks left. However, at the beginning of this year, we reversed our position and shorted the market, continuing to reduce our stock holdings as planned, and have already achieved our predetermined goal."

Zhang San nodded, acknowledging their ability to execute the plan, since he had made money from it.

Using Hang Seng Index futures to hedge stock losses allows you to profit when stocks rise and also profit when stocks fall, thus balancing out stock profits.

Zhang San glanced at the accounts. Half of the stocks were stocks he had started buying when the index was around 3,000 points. By the end of last year, it had risen to over 10,000 points, nearly tripling in value at its peak. Such profits were not to be missed. Even if the index could rise even higher, he wasn't thinking about it for the time being. This single wave had earned him nearly 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, which was quite outrageous. This amounted to nearly 40 billion Hong Kong dollars in cash.

Zhang San did the math and found that he had broken even and still had stocks worth 30 billion.

"It's faster to make money in stocks, or in finance and real estate."

Many time travelers like to get involved in finance, and sure enough... "It's damn fast money!" This exclamation also revealed Zhang San's conflicted feelings. He felt that if he didn't make money this way, he would be letting down his identity as a time traveler.

This bull market lasted from the stock market crash in October 1987 until the beginning of this year. From the opening of the market in 1988 at 2572 points to the opening of the market in early 1994 at 12201 points, it rose a total of 4.74 times. This increase is also very strong.

With this kind of increase, why wait to cash in your profits now?

He began to review the accounts, which still needed to be audited. However, unlike before, this time the audit no longer required the Big Four accounting firms; his own accounting firm would suffice.

After working a day job, he went to Universal Studios the next day. After seeing many of the attractions that were already open for business, Zhang San felt that he could start operating his business.

The Universal Studios hotel is now being managed by the Lihua Hotel staff, who are currently undergoing training. This is because the Lihua Hotel has a new owner, and Zhang San has basically purged the older staff, letting go of those old fogies who relied on their seniority.

The newcomers were being trained by the veterans, and Zhang San, watching from afar, felt it was a bit too strict; then came the other projects.

"Conduct the latest security tests, and after completion, please have the Hong Kong government's security testing agency conduct a security assessment."

This place has received a huge investment, accounting for a significant portion of the total investment; he doesn't want such a large cinema to close down because of safety issues.

He also visited the dinosaur park where he filmed last year and discovered that people were still filming there.

"Hey, why are there still people filming? Didn't you say you were done filming?"

When the boss asked the question, someone quickly replied, "We're filming reshoots now."

After Zhang San found out, he nodded to indicate that he understood, and then went back. This afternoon, he made an appointment with Boss Liu, whom he hadn't seen in a long time, and the two wanted to get together.

There were only three people at the banquet: Boss Liu, Prodigy Hui, and Zhang San. Having not seen each other for a long time, the three were naturally laughing and chatting, welcoming Zhang San back. Boss Liu sat in the main seat, smiling, and raised his glass to Zhang San.

After several rounds of drinks and dishes, Boss Liu suddenly put down his glass and started talking about the stock market.

"I don't know who sold so many shares, which surprised many people, who didn't even have a chance to sell their shares."

Zhang San's heart skipped a beat, but he remained outwardly calm as he asked, "Oh? I wonder which company is dumping so much stock?"

Boss Liu chuckled and said, "Who else could it be but foreign capital? Stocks have always been a bellwether for the market, and this sudden large-scale sell-off has caught many people off guard."

Zhang San secretly breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, it wasn't his actions that attracted the attention of the big boss, Liu.

However, Liu, the bigwig, continued, "But this is good too, I took the opportunity to buy quite a lot. Haha, I guess I got a bargain this time."

Zhang San was secretly delighted; it seemed his decision had been correct. He raised his glass, smiling, and said, "Then congratulations, boss!"

After the meal, Zhang San bid farewell to Boss Liu and Prodigy Hui. Sitting in the car, Zhang San was deep in thought, pondering the meaning behind Boss Liu's words at the dinner table.
