"Xiao Kun, what's the deal with Professor Zhong's daughter? Do you have any photos? You suddenly fell in love at first sight and it's solved one of the most important things in your life. As her great-uncle, I should at least give you my opinion."

Wang Haibo, Chen Guo'er, and the others looked at Shen Kun with gossipy expressions.

Shen Kun chuckled and said, "It's like, you know, instant rapport, love at first sight, I have photos."

Shen Kun took a photo out of his wallet.

Shen Fang took it. The woman was wearing glasses, had fair skin, a slightly rounded figure, and rather dignified features. She wasn't exceptionally beautiful, but she had the gentle and refined air of a perfect wife and mother. She was also a medical student from a scholarly family, highly educated.

Shen Fang nodded. This girl was the kind of girl whose beauty grew on you; she gave people a comfortable feeling just by looking at her.

When are you planning to bring it home?

“I’ll bring her home for Chinese New Year this year. Xue’er will graduate this year and is preparing to meet my parents after graduation. I’m 25 this year. As the saying goes, ‘settling down and starting a career’ means that once you’ve started a career, you should settle down and start a family. My mom is still waiting to hold her grandson.’”

"Hey, you said you weren't in a hurry before, why are you in such a hurry now?" Shen Fang teased Shen Kun.

"Now that you've met such a virtuous wife, you should seize the opportunity and hold onto her, right, Mr. Shen?" Wang Haibo said with a smile.

Shen Kun laughed: "That makes sense, Brother Bo, Third Uncle. I really didn't think this matter was urgent before, but when I met someone I liked, I thought I should get married as soon as possible. I can't drag it out. Only when we become a real couple can I feel at ease."

Shen Fang patted Shen Kun on the shoulder: "Okay, well done. I'll give you 10% of the shares, and you can keep 5% for Zhong Xueer as her dowry."

Shen Kun was overjoyed: "Thank you, Third Uncle!"

"What a fine thing to do." Shen Fang put his arm around Shen Kun's shoulder. He was genuinely happy for Shen Kun. Shen Kun had been with him since he was 15 years old, for more than 10 years. It could be said that Shen Kun had taken care of many things for him. Shen Fang was in charge of directing, and Shen Fang was in charge of executing. There had never been any mistakes. Now that Shen Kun had settled down, started a family, and found someone he liked, it was exactly what Shen Fang wanted to see.

Brother Bo, this time Soros's Quantum Fund is cooperating with us to short the Japanese yen. Don't be too greedy. Once you've made 300 million US dollars, get out immediately.

"Understood. The insider trading operation has been set up, with multiple 'Mrs. Watanabe's' backers. They won't find us. The shorted shares have all been credited to our account."

Japan accounts for one-third of the global foreign exchange trading volume, and Tokyo's status as an international financial center is closely related to this massive volume. Japanese foreign exchange investors are highly active, with "Mrs. Watanabe," renowned for their expertise in forex margin trading, becoming a significant force in the global forex market. They account for nearly one-third of the trading volume in the Japanese forex margin market, wielding considerable influence in the global forex market.

"Watanabe" is one of the five most common surnames in Japan. More than a decade ago, an article in The Economist magazine described these Japanese housewives as "Mrs. Watanabe." Since then, "Mrs. Watanabe" has become synonymous with these housewives who hold the reins of their household finances and boldly engage in various financial investments, especially foreign exchange margin trading. They are sometimes also referred to as "kimono traders."

Shen Fang came here to make money. Shorting the Japanese yen was a collaboration he had discussed with Suo XX last time. Shen Fang was planning to make some extra money. In the past two years, Japan's vitality has recovered a lot. Now that he has money, Shen Fang wants to take some of it.

However, Shen Fang definitely needed to find a good identity, so he approached the Watanabe Wives Group.

This time, Chen Fang is playing the short-selling game, and not just any ordinary short-selling game.

Shen Fang then used the Quantum Fund's margin and his own collateral to borrow $100 million worth of stocks; this operation is called short selling.

Securities lending, also known as short selling, involves borrowing a certain number of shares from a brokerage firm, selling them on the market, and then buying back the same number of shares after a period of time to return them to the brokerage firm. In the end, you still have zero shares in hand, but you profit from the difference between the buying and selling prices.

However, short selling is not available to everyone, nor to all stocks. To short sell with a brokerage firm, you need to activate a short selling account, which requires a minimum of 500,000 yuan in assets in your securities account. Even after activating a short selling account, you can only short sell stocks held by the brokerage firm, and a brokerage firm cannot possibly hold all stocks on the market.

This is something others can't do, but Soros can. That's the advantage of associating with Wall Street financial giants—you get influence wherever you go and can easily access financial resources that others can't.

Then, using the profits, they buy stocks at a low price, short them again, and make a profit without any investment.

This short-selling method is most suitable for those who plan to hold stocks long-term, because it allows them to continuously lower their cost basis, and the lower the cost basis, the easier it is to make money. Some people have even used this method to reduce their stock cost basis to below zero, which means they are 100% guaranteed to make money.

Now Chen Fang has the capital to control costs to below zero, so it can be said that he has basically won without lifting a finger this time. However, he needs to do it very discreetly, otherwise he will get into trouble. No one dares to mess with Eileen So, the stock god, because she has the support of the US government, but he can't do it on his own.

China is not a capitalist country.
