Time flies like an arrow, always passing by unnoticed.
Led by Li Ka-shing, the four major families pooled their capital and seized the opportunity presented by the war launched by the United States to make a decisive breakthrough in the international crude oil market.
In their view, Sam had an army of 1.2 million, and the war would have to last for some time.
Initially, the international crude oil market did indeed experience fluctuations.
Seeing hope, the four major families acted drastically, channeling large amounts of capital back into the international crude oil market.
As time went by, international crude oil prices were quickly brought under control.
at the same time.
During the Gulf War, the United States showed the world for the first time what a saturation attack is.
The three major families, Rockefeller, Morgan and DuPont, joined forces to sweep through the international crude oil market at lightning speed.
This price war only had an opening before it came to an end.
The United States used its strategic oil reserves to dump crude oil into the market in a massive, uncontrolled manner.
Investors who had taken long positions were completely dumbfounded.
Things have come to this point and there's no going back.
After receiving the news, it was no longer possible for the four major families of Hong Kong to escape unscathed.
At this time, some international capital is still hesitant and unable to cut its losses decisively.
Li Residence.
The members of the four major families reunited.
Li Jiacheng spoke first, saying, "Make a move! We have to throw them all out! No matter the price, no matter how much we lose! We can't keep wasting time with them!"
"Damn it!"
Guo Desheng was cursing and swearing, his face extremely gloomy.
And so, there was no earth-shattering meeting, and at this point, Li Ka-shing no longer cared about pomp and circumstance.
The four made a decisive move immediately, a painful but necessary sacrifice that would not kill them.
Ultimately, the four major families suffered heavy losses in the crude oil futures market.
They hastily abandoned $3 billion and fled.
This escape was even faster than their initial foray into the crude oil futures market.
The enormous losses were heartbreaking for Li Ka-shing and others.
If they hadn't invested that money, the four major families of Hong Kong would certainly have had better opportunities in the near future.
Unfortunately, the wheels of fate never stopped turning, nor were they merciful to anyone.
Human greed is insatiable; like a snake trying to swallow an elephant!
Greed, desire, and false opportunities—all of these slapped the four major families hard across the face.
Guo Desheng sat on the sofa, frowning and sighing, "Alas, if we had known this would happen, we should have listened to Chen Sheng and given up this opportunity."
Ultimately, we still don't understand the international crude oil futures market!
"Who would have thought that the US would use its oil reserves to directly quell this unrest!"
The four regretted it too late.
At this moment, Li Ka-shing couldn't help but frown.
Li Jiacheng hissed and muttered to himself in surprise, "Chen Sheng didn't want to get involved in this matter from the beginning. Could it be that he already knew something was going to happen in the crude oil futures market?"
Upon hearing this, Guo Desheng immediately waved his hand and said, "It's not that scary. Don't forget, the reason Chen Sheng gave up this time was because he didn't have enough manpower around him."
"That makes sense. Although Chen Sheng seems to be doing very well, he doesn't have nearly as many people around him as we do."
"Well, all I can say is that Chen Sheng is good at assessing the situation and keeping his composure. He's just lucky!"
"We've really messed up this time!"
Several people offered their opinions, and their views, combined with the reasons Chen Dong had given earlier, quickly dispelled Li Jiacheng's doubts.
The cautious and perceptive Li Jiacheng thus feinted to his teammate, dispelling his doubts.
Li Jiacheng felt that he should still make a trip to Hidden Dragon Residence this time.
In this awkward period, perhaps only Chen Dong can turn the tide.
Is there any hope left for the international crude oil market?
Do they still have a chance to break in again and recover their losses?
Or perhaps, is there any new information from Chen Sheng that would allow them to make up for their losses in a short period of time?
These three questions are the most important.
Li Jiacheng made a quick decision, and the four of them prepared a car and headed to Hidden Dragon Residence together.
Under the cover of night, Hidden Dragon Residence loses some of its grandeur and gains a touch of elegance.
Under the supervision of servants, a dozen gardeners are repairing the courtyard of Hidden Dragon Residence, where a new batch of hardy ornamental pines have been planted.
The landscape stones are laid out along with the ornamental pine trees, making the courtyard exquisite and natural. Even the pavilion where Chen Dong often sits and drinks tea has been renovated and blends perfectly with the surrounding scenery.
One of the servants said, "Everyone has worked hard. When Boss Chen returns, you will all be rewarded."
"Of course, being able to renovate the courtyard of Boss Chen's Hidden Dragon Residence is enough for me to brag about for years."
"Haha, after I fix this place, my value will skyrocket when I take on other jobs."
The craftsmen and gardeners chatted and laughed, while several servants supervised and helped from the side, all with relaxed smiles on their faces.
At this moment, Li Jiacheng and others arrived at Hidden Dragon Residence.
The guards at the gate were all taken aback when they saw the four people.
Li Jiacheng shouted at the servant, "Quickly, go and announce that we need to see Chen Sheng! It's extremely urgent!"
As he spoke, Li Jiacheng took out a considerable amount of tips and stuffed them into the servants' hands.
The servant shook his head and said with difficulty, "Gentlemen, my master is not at Hidden Dragon Residence right now."
