Li Xiaoman rolled her eyes at Chen Dong. "Still talking? Isn't it all your fault? We came here to talk business, not to listen to your jokes!"
“Yeah, Mr. Chen, you’ve always been a reliable person, why are you telling us jokes today?” Zhang Zhong chimed in.
He almost coughed up his lungs just now.
Chen Dong shrugged and said, "I'm just talking about serious matters! Who told you guys to be so impatient?"
It was only then that the two realized that what Chen Dong said might be true, but how could that be?
So they all stared intently at Chen Dong, wondering what tricks he could pull.
Under their watchful eyes, Chen Dong spoke slowly and deliberately, “I’m telling the truth. Although I haven’t spoken with them face-to-face, or even discussed it with them, you should have heard of the term ‘spiritual connection,’ or you could compare it to ‘great minds think alike.’”
Upon hearing Chen Dong's words, both Li Xiaoman and Zhang Zhong showed thoughtful expressions.
Chen Dong continued:
"I wonder if you have carefully studied the recent fluctuations in the Mexican financial market? If you have, you will find that its fluctuations are abnormal, very abnormal. Although I fueled it, you also know that if it were just me, it would be impossible to create such a big storm."
Upon hearing Chen Dong's words, Li Xiaoman was startled. "You mean, they're also in Mexico?"
Zhang Zhong didn't say anything, but he stared intently at Chen Dong, trying to glean some clue from his eyes.
Chen Dong leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed and comfortable. "Of course, you don't really think I'm so arrogant as to stand up to a country by myself, do you? I'm an investor, not a gambler. Although there is often a gambling element in investing, it can only account for a very small part, and cannot be the main way of investing. If it were, how would the money be made, and how would it be lost in the end?"
Li Xiaoman agreed with what Chen Dong said.
She had been studying Chen Dong's past investment experience and felt that he was indeed shrewd and experienced, with methods so sophisticated that he seemed more like a seasoned veteran seeking stability than a young man.
Keep your eyes on a target, but don't act rashly. Instead, wait for the right opportunity, and when you see it, strike swiftly and hit the target in one fell swoop.
Sometimes, she even suspected that an old man lived inside Chen Dong's body, rather than a young man full of youthful energy.
That's why she felt she could connect with Chen Dong, and that's why she didn't mind his age and wanted to be his girlfriend.
Suddenly, Li Xiaoman gently shook her head, pulling her thoughts back to the present moment.
She had to admit that Chen Dong made a good point.
So, I nodded subconsciously.
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Zhong still couldn't find any flaws in Chen Dong's statement.
So he decided to believe him for the time being, and then stared at him intently, waiting for his further explanation.
As expected, Chen Dong did not disappoint them; he explained his judgment and specific actions in detail.
That is, as he just said, he had keenly sensed in his previous operations that, in addition to himself, other forces were stirring up trouble in the Mexican market.
Although they were being very careful, in Chen Dong's eyes, they were still as conspicuous as lice on a bald man's head.
Although those speculative capital groups may not know of his existence, or they may know but not care much.
In Chen Dong's view, these few speculative capital groups are the real professionals and true masters of offensive tactics.
Therefore, he concealed his manipulation, letting these international speculative capital groups charge ahead, drawing fire and opening up opportunities for him, while he simply followed behind them, playing the role of secretly picking up bargains.
Only then did the two understand why Chen Dong was so low-key, and why there was almost no news of him doing these things in the market.
As for the international speculative capital group he mentioned, the two of them decided on the same occasion to investigate it thoroughly when they got back to see if it was really as he said.
If that's the case, then I'll still follow suit; after all, such a situation is truly rare. If they can really break through the Mexican peso, then my bank will make a fortune.
Of course, if the situation is not as Chen Dong described, then we need to reconsider our cooperation with Chen Dong.
Li Xiaoman, in particular, has taken this matter as a litmus test.
However, she still chooses to trust Chen Dong. After all, Chen Dong has always treated her with honesty and has never deceived her. She believes that this time, he won't ruin his own reputation or do something so foolish for this investment.
Because that would do him no good at all, and he would lose his friend instead.
Assuming Chen Dong's claims were true, she focused on reflecting on the whole situation, and then posed a question:
"So I believe that by now, the Mexican government should have noticed your offensive, right? How will they react? If things go wrong, all the money they've invested could be wasted."
Chen Dong thought for a moment and said:
"Actually, I also believe that the Mexican government has noticed the market anomalies, but they don't care much and think that it's just a minor problem, and that they are still capable of dealing with international speculative capital."
Zhang Zhong agreed with what Chen Dong said.
Then, he immediately asked, "I think the Mexican government is right. Even if you have tens of billions of dollars in total, it's still not enough to deal with a sovereign nation. As a country, it always has ways to deal with you."
Hearing Zhang Zhong say this, Li Xiaoman also looked at Chen Dong with concern, wanting to hear what he had to say.
Chen Dong did not disappoint them. He said, "Do you know where the foundation of Mexico's financial security lies?"
“Ample foreign capital inflow!” Li Xiaoman blurted out.
The reason she answered so quickly was entirely due to her research on the Mexican financial system, the result of her recent and ongoing efforts.
Although she was a top student, it still took her several days to figure these things out.
"Yes, that's it." Chen Dong nodded in approval.
His meaning was clear: if the inflow of foreign capital into Mexico slows down or even stops, then the Mexican financial market will face huge risks.
By then, profit-seeking foreign capital will continue to withdraw, and even if the Mexican government has more than $20 billion in foreign exchange reserves, it will only be able to sustain itself for a very limited time.
He continued, "So, that's why I'm contacting you; I don't need you to invest any money."
Hearing Chen Dong speak so casually, Zhang Zhong became interested.
Essentially, all true investors prefer stability and abhor uncertainty.
"Stop beating around the bush, just tell me what you need us to do?" Li Xiaoman didn't want to watch Chen Dong beat around the bush.
Chen Dong readily agreed and immediately said, "What you need to do is very simple: just spread the word, which means recovering funds to avoid financial risks."
