After hearing Du Xingzhi's words, Chen Dong chuckled coldly twice, then asked, "The chips are in the brokerage firm's portfolio, kept completely confidential. How can you be so sure they don't have many chips?"
“This isn’t the first time Soros has attacked a region’s monetary and financial system.” Du Xingzhi was stunned. Chen Dong reminded him, “Mr. Du, you mustn’t let your guard down!”
Chen Dong then quickly hung up the phone.
Despite Du Xingzhi having people investigate the source of this mysterious phone call, they were unable to find its origin.
Left with no other choice, Du Xingzhi had to report to his superiors.
Upon learning of this, Financial Secretary Yang Fugui instructed: "Whether this is true or false, we must be on high alert next Monday."
"Soros's international hedge fund has indeed not made any moves for several days."
Yang Fugui tapped his desk and emphasized, "I think that according to Soros's modus operandi, next week should be the time for them to focus their efforts on dealing with the Hong Kong currency market."
"Understood," Du Xingzhi said.
The Hong Kong stock market opened on time at 9:00 a.m. on Monday.
The Soros Group was completely unaffected by public opinion.
Hong Kong stocks opened with the Hang Seng Index fixed at a certain level.
Because the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) had given prior notice to the four major families, although a small number of sell orders appeared in the market, they were quickly absorbed by the four families.
In addition, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority contacted other state-owned enterprises and Chinese-owned institutions in Hong Kong, instructing them to be vigilant and not give Soros any opportunity to exploit loopholes.
After some maneuvering, the forces supporting the Hong Kong stock market have stabilized, with the main players on high alert.
In the trading hall of Yellow River Capital, Soros looked at their naive operations and said with some disdain, "Do they think that a few small fry from Hong Kong can defend against the huge international speculative capital behind us?"
"They are overestimating themselves."
“That’s hard to say,” Cyber sighed. “Haven’t you noticed? Usually, it’s just the Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the four major families supporting the market, but today there are suddenly so many more major players supporting the market. This is a bit too unusual.”
Soros stared at Cyber, his face grim. "What do you mean?"
"Our previous plan was to focus our efforts on suppressing the Hong Kong dollar market on Monday."
Cyber looked at the group of senior executives attending the meeting and said, "Only insiders know about this matter, but judging from their current state of high alert, it is obvious that someone gave them a heads-up beforehand."
As soon as he finished speaking, Soros and his group quickly turned their attention to Xiang Feng.
Xiang Feng smiled bitterly, "I've always been a peripheral figure in this team. None of you have ever revealed to me the confidential matters of when to attack and when to defend."
Although it's a bitter truth to say, it is.
Although Xiang Feng represented Asian Investment Bank Capital, he merely acted as a conduit between Asian Investment Bank Capital and Soros.
The major decision-making process was handled by Cyber, a legitimate partner of the Asian investment bank capital firm, who negotiated with Soros.
After such a long period of cooperation, Xiang Feng was unable to integrate into Soros's team no matter what, and that is precisely the reason.
After listening to Xiang Feng's explanation, everyone quickly turned their attention back to him.
"The timing of our attack on the Hong Kong stock market was indeed known only to insiders," Cyber concluded.
Soros glanced around at all the senior executives attending the meeting. These were people who had followed him for several years, and he trusted them completely.
"Perhaps it was just a lucky break for the Financial Supervisory Authority... that they managed to get the information about our attack today," Soros said.
Cyber thought for a moment and asked, "Since they've prepared for defense today, should we change our plans and operate another day?"
Upon hearing this, Soros immediately shook his head in denial.
The senior executives present at the meeting also disagreed with Cyber's statement.
"It's already 10:00 AM. International speculative capital has already received the message we released, and the hedge funds we have, as well as the international financial giants and large investment banks that are following us in shorting, are all ready to take action."
"If we notify them one by one now, it will definitely be too late."
"What about releasing information through public platforms?" a senior executive asked.
Cyber looked at the senior executives and said hesitantly, "Recently, Hong Kong television stations have been exaggerating the attacks on the Hong Kong stock market by international speculators."
“Our actions have already offended a large number of retail investors and investment institutions who are bullish. If we directly announce the cessation of the action to other participants on a public platform, this approach will definitely give them ammunition to criticize us.”
"I suggest we stick to the original plan."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the conference room expressed their support.
Xiang Feng, however, calmly withdrew his disdainful expression.
People like Cyber and Soros are all driven by profit. It's surprising that after two days of publicity and hype from Hong Kong's mass media, Cyber has learned to read the mood of the media and stock market investors.
You really do encounter all sorts of unexpected things when you live a long life.
After the meeting, Soros went to the trading floor to personally plan his attack on Hong Kong dollar futures.
Cyber sat with his head down on one side of the analyst's workstation.
In recent days, Hong Kong television stations and major media outlets have been reporting on Yellow River Capital acting as Soros's front man, and Cyber acting as a henchman for Soros's international hedge fund.
