In Tokyo, even the most fierce dragon is afraid of the hatchet

Snapped!

A slap was given directly in the face.

The security guards around immediately pointed their guns at Nagano Nao and said, "Hey, man, stay calm! Otherwise I will open fire."

"Is this how Goldman Sachs treats its big clients? Go and call Buffett down for me. I want to ask him if this is the gift he arranged for you to meet me!" Nao Nagano said to the security captain without any fear.

Okamoto Kozhi and Seto's gang were also very principled. Several of them surrounded Nagano Nao and immediately announced his identity.

The security captain immediately realized that something was wrong.

Buffett is one of the senior partners of Goldman Sachs.

These Japanese people dare to mention the name of such a big boss so arrogantly. I definitely can't afford to offend them.

Contacted the office.

Soon, Buffett's secretary Felina walked down quickly.

"Mr. Nagano, I'm really sorry! I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation for this matter. Please don't be angry about it!" Felina said very respectfully.

As Buffett's secretary, she knew clearly who the real target customers of the Nikkei put options were.

They are not individual investors in the United States, nor are they the big bosses in the United States, but rather Japan's major conglomerates, life insurance companies, and city banks.

Nagano Nao adjusted his windbreaker and, at Felina's invitation, not bothering to look at the security guard who had just pushed him, he strode up the stairs.

Felina gave the security captain a look and immediately followed him quickly.

Rwanda was dumbfounded.

Noticing that the captain's eyes were not right, he fell to his knees with a plop.

"I'm sorry! I really didn't know he was Japanese! Khan, please testify for me, it was you who said he was Chinese!"

"Asshole! I told you not to discriminate against other races. You will have to bear the consequences yourself!"

"Take him to the basement!"

"..."

the other side.

Led by Felina.

Nao Nagano and his group arrived at the top floor of the Goldman Sachs Building.

Warren Buffett put down the work at hand and walked out quickly.

Seeing Nagano's appearance, he was slightly stunned, but then he smiled warmly and stretched out his hands to shake hands with him: "Hello, Mr. Nagano, I didn't expect you to be so young and handsome, so please forgive me for being rude just now."

"You're welcome, Mr. Buffett. It's an honor to meet you."

"Haha! Mr. Nagano is so polite, please take a seat!"

Buffett took Nagano Nao to the reception room.

Felina quickly made some coffee and placed it in front of Nagano Nao personally.

Drinking coffee calmly.

Nao Nagano secretly looked at Buffett. It was an interesting feeling to meet the legendary stock god in person.

Buffett made some polite remarks casually while secretly sizing up Nagano Nao. To be able to become the president of a powerful asset management company in Japan Life Insurance at such a young age, his background must be extraordinary.

Took a few sips of coffee.

The strange atmosphere faded a little, and Buffett took the opportunity to say tentatively: "Mr. Nagano, you said on the phone that you are very interested in Nikkei put options. You came here in person this time, so you must have made the decision to invest!"

"That's right! For a long time, the Japanese stock market has lacked a short-selling mechanism, so stock positions have high risks. As a public fund asset management company, we cannot afford the one-way investment risk. The Nikkei put option gave me a new investment portfolio inspiration, so I would like to cooperate with your company to make an arbitrage portfolio to hedge the risk."

"Mr. Nagano is really insightful. He can think of using put options to hedge stock investment positions. Such a hedging combination is very rare even on Wall Street. But I wonder how many put options your company plans to buy?"

Nagano Nao gestured with his index finger.

"One hundred million dollars?!!!" Felina exclaimed, and quickly shut up in fear. Her pretty face showed obvious disbelief, and her heart was pounding.

Even though Goldman Sachs is one of the largest investment groups on Wall Street, clients with $100 million are not often encountered.

The people who could control so much wealth were all old men. She had never met a client in his early twenties who could easily mobilize so much money.

Even Buffett was visibly surprised.

You know, he is already sixty years old this year and has a good background, but even so, his net worth is only ten billion US dollars.

But this hairless guy in front of me can actually use $100 million of wealth at one time. Compared with myself when I only had to invest $100,000, I was terrified. It's really frustrating to compare myself with him.

Nagano Nao was somewhat confused by the expressions of the two men.

One hundred million dollars, is that a lot?

You look down on us little Japan too much!

shook his head.

Nagano Nao said: "It's one billion dollars!"

"..."

The scene was dead silent.

One billion?

Dollar?

Felina's blue eyes had turned dull, and her heart paused.

A billion dollars!

What does it mean in the United States?

Buffett's status speaks for itself.

god!

Stock God!

Wherever he goes, it is like God on earth.

And this guy actually said one billion dollars?

I must have heard it wrong!

Warren Buffett couldn't even catch his breath.

Having lived for most of his life, he has witnessed World War II, the Cold War, and has handled countless wealth.

But suddenly, when I heard someone invest wealth equal to his own worth just by looking at his mouth, and he was a guy with no beard, it always felt particularly absurd.

"A billion dollars? Are you serious, Mr. Nagano?"

"Does Mr. Buffett think I'm kidding?"

"No, no! I'm just surprised at your courage, Mr. Nagano. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but when I was your age, the biggest investment I made was only $100,000."

"Mr. Buffett, you must be joking. The $100,000 in your time may not be much different from the $1 billion today."

“Even though I said that, this number still shocked me!”

"..."

Goldman Sachs is the largest underwriter of Nikkei put options.

If a business like this comes right to your door, it would be a shame not to take it.

Moreover, in addition to earning a large amount of commission, Goldman Sachs's purpose is to attract Japanese capital to buy put options.

Use his spear to attack his shield.

Without large-scale Japanese capital buying put options, it would be even more likely to undermine the unity within the Japanese financial groups.

Under the supervision of Seto Shinnosuke and various specialists, Osaka Asset Management held one billion US dollars in put options in its account.

The two sides shook hands and said hello.

After Naoto Nao and his group said goodbye, Felina said in a daze, "Is this guy a traitor to Japan? Buying so many put options at once, doesn't he understand what the consequences will be?"

"This is a very scary young man. Didn't you notice that with a billion-dollar investment, his eyes didn't show any fluctuations at all!"

"It seems to be true!"

"This is a young man with great potential, Felina, you can seize the opportunity. If I am not wrong, Japan will be his world in the future!"

"Ah! Sir, how can you have such a high opinion of a Japanese?"

"Never underestimate the Japanese!" "The drunkard's interest is not in wine, but in the mountains and rivers. The joy of mountains and rivers is obtained from the heart and expressed in wine. This young man's goal is obviously not in the financial market, just like us."

Chapter 254 Currency without Financial Attributes

This season in New York.

Blizzard says it will come down.

Standing on the Goldman Sachs Building and looking at the heavy snow falling from the sky, Nagano Nao suddenly became alert.

There were many things I couldn’t understand before.

The Japanese stock market is controlled by financial groups. The first time the American financial groups came here, they were beaten badly and suffered huge losses of billions of dollars.

Why can the stock market crash the second time?

The trading volume of Japanese stock index futures is only tens of billions of yen, which is completely fake. It seems that there is no point for Wall Street to short the Japanese stock market by using put options.

Later I realized that no matter how strong a fortress is, it can only be breached from the inside, and the only one who can kill yourself is yourself.

Use your own spear to attack your own shield.

Put options can make money when the stock market falls.

On one hand, there is tremendous pressure from the Cold War balance. Choosing to resist means competing head-on with the United States, and more companies will face the same sanctions as Toshiba.

On the other hand, buying put options and giving up the stock market will not cause any loss to the consortium itself, and it may even make a fortune.

Coercion and inducement.
