This is definitely exciting news, but such good news needs to be confirmed at the rear before it can be reported. What if the other side launches a counterattack tomorrow? Where will the leader's face be?
After a simple celebration, as dawn broke outside, Lu Feng was being interviewed. Facing the camera, Lu Feng spoke about the current situation and expressed extreme optimism about the Hong Kong dollar. He believed that the most difficult time had passed and that the Hong Kong dollar would soon return to its peak, and even improve with the support of the mainland.
After finishing the interview, Lu Feng left the rest to others. He walked out of the stock exchange, looked at the gray sky outside, and felt an indescribable sense of relief. He didn't let the driver drive and drove straight home by himself.
When he woke up, news of Tiger Fund's bankruptcy was everywhere, and Quantum Fund was also facing huge losses. Lu Feng's name made headlines in major media outlets around the world, with many media outlets calling him an "Asian financial tycoon".
At five o'clock in the evening, Lu Feng was having dinner when he received a constant stream of congratulatory phone calls. Everyone kept calling him "Crocodile Lu," a nickname that Lu Feng found both funny and exasperating. The crocodile from his previous life had disappeared, and he had become the one in his place.
My boss called and told me I didn't need to come to the exchange that night. Tiger Fund has gone bankrupt and a huge amount of Hong Kong dollars need to be redeemed. They will have to accept a price of HK$7.80. This huge redemption will inevitably make the Hong Kong dollar stronger. At the same time, a large amount of Hong Kong dollars are in the hands of the mainland, which gives them leverage in negotiations.
According to their plan, the country will make a lot of money this time.
It was finally over. In the evening, Lu Feng called Jiang Xiaoyan to inquire about Duo Duo's recent situation. They talked on the phone for more than half an hour. Lu Feng wanted to call Zhang Fengxia as well, but it was morning there and she probably hadn't woken up yet.
For a moment, Lu Feng didn't know what to do and sat blankly on the bed, lost in thought.
The clock ticked away, and Lu Feng didn't fall asleep until late at night. It took him three days to adjust his sleep schedule before he went to the company to handle some business.
After handling some routine issues and holding four or five meetings throughout the day, Lu Feng received a call from Su Yourong in the evening.
“I saw you at the coffee shop downstairs from the company. Come down here!” Su Yourong said.
"What's wrong?" Lu Feng was reluctant to face her at the moment. According to the current shareholding ratio, Lu Feng had completely controlled United Capital. The company was now only owned by Lu Feng, Su Yourong, and five small shareholders. Those five small shareholders together did not even own five percent of the shares. The rest were all retail investors.
"Nothing's wrong, I just miss you. The whole world is talking about you now, can't I just see you?" Su Yourong said into the phone, "If you don't come down, I'm coming up!"
"Then I'll go down!"
Lu Feng hung up the phone, stepped into the elevator, and walked into the coffee shop. Su Yourong, sitting in a booth, had exquisite makeup on. The weather had cooled down slightly in the past few days, and her black slit dress perfectly accentuated her figure. Even her hair was meticulously styled.
"Does it look good?" Su Yourong looked at Lu Feng with her alluring eyes, sizing him up and down, and said, "You've lost weight!"
"You're so busy every day, how could you not lose weight?" Lu Feng sat down and looked at her, saying, "You've actually gained a little weight. I've never seen you dressed like this before."
"I paid for a makeup artist and stylist, and they carefully put together the look." Su Yourong sat down a bit, picked up her coffee and took a sip. "You've become a hero who turned the tide in Hong Kong. The media is full of praise for you. Sometimes when I look at the photos, I feel like the distance between us is getting further and further apart."
"You're insulting me. I was just doing my job," Lu Feng said casually.
"According to media reports, you voluntarily advanced the funds yourself, incurring significant losses. You're a selfless person, devoted solely to the people." Su Yourong looked at Lu Feng and said, "This isn't you!"
"So what if we lose money? That's probably just a difference between us," Lu Feng said, sipping his coffee. "I'm not a pure businessman, and I can't be one. I pursue profit, but deep down I still hope to do something for the country."
Su Yourong laughed. She didn't quite believe Lu Feng's platitudes. The topic shifted to the current capital situation in Hong Kong. Many people had left, but even more had chosen to stay. After this wave, everyone's assets had shrunk, and no one knew what would happen next.
The entire Hong Kong capital market is filled with confusion. Su Yourong said she was also confused, as United Capital's performance has been almost non-existent in the past few months.
The two talked a lot in the coffee shop, from their careers to their ages and families. Her words were filled with a sense of resignation.
"I came to see you to tell you that I'm leaving soon." Su Yourong looked at Lu Feng and said, "I'm going abroad for a while. To be honest, I've had expectations of you over the past few years, but you haven't given me much of a response. I know that our relationship is mostly business cooperation, but the foundation has always been our feelings!"
Lu Feng pursed his lips slightly at her words, sighed, and said, "Why talk about such sad things?"
"I'm not going to say anything more. Spend the last few days with me. I've already booked my ticket for November, and I might not be coming back. This is a farewell." Su Yourong stood up and said, "Let's go to your place. My place is a mess."
After leaving the coffee shop, the two drove straight to the villa. After dinner, they sat on the wicker chairs on the balcony, looking at the distant sea. Su Yourong talked about her childhood with some emotion. She had helped her family cut pig feed since she could remember. She went to junior high school and became the most educated person in her family.
