" I wonder if Mr. Jesse and the City Bank are interested in a bet with me."
Hearing Li Qingyang's words, Jesse's face showed great interest. He crossed his legs together. I wonder what kind of gambling method Mr. Li wants? I want to hear the details."
"Haha, isn't Mr. Jesse going to let us talk while eating? I didn't come over after dinner, so my stomach is still empty." Li Qingyang didn't answer Jesse directly.
"Of course, this is my rudeness. "I wonder what Mr. Li would like to eat. The seafood risotto here is not bad, and the Iberian ham was flown over from Spain. I recommend you to try it."
" Alright, I'll take the two dishes that Mr. Jesse recommended. Mr. Jesse can decide on the rest. The guest will follow the host." He didn't look at the menu and ordered the risotto and ham that Jesse recommended. Li Qingyang left the rest to Jesse to decide.
Jesse didn't refuse. He nodded and told the waiter a few dishes. Then, he told the waiter something and asked him to leave.
He picked up the red wine on the table and poured it for Li Qingyang without bothering the waiter. He said," This is Lipeng Winery. 2,000-year-old red wine is very rare now. Although it was not as good as the 1999 one, it was still a rare good thing. If it wasn't for a distinguished guest, I wouldn't have taken it out."
Thank you. Here's to you." She clinked glasses with Jesse and took a sip. " It's not bad. The texture is rich and the aftertaste is endless."
Li Qingyang could feel the sincerity of Jesse, which could be seen from the bottle of red wine. Li Peng Winery. Perhaps many people didn't know about it. However, it was also one of the top ten wineries in the world. In the upper class of the West, it was more famous than Chateaux Lafite and other wineries.
Because it was too rare, unlike other big wineries. The winery occupies only five acres and produces an average of 6,000 bottles of wine a year. The quantity was limited, and the circulation range was small. Basically, it was exclusive to the upper class. Ordinary people might not even have heard of it, let alone buy it.
However, this didn't erase the fact that Lipeng was one of the most famous Bordeaux wines and was favored by wine collectors. It was also known as a miracle in the world wine industry.
After that, the two of them chatted for a while. After all the dishes were served, Jesse got to the point." Mr. Li, can you explain the bet you mentioned in detail?"
" Sure, but before that, I want to hear Mr. Jesse's opinion on the euros in the next few days." Li Qingyang asked.
Jesse looked at Li Qingyang and thought for a moment before saying," The current exchange rate of the Euros isn't very optimistic. As far as I know, this situation will continue. Those big consortiums won't let go of such an opportunity to short the Euros."
"Oh, does that include Criti?" Li Qingyang asked with interest.
" Of course, this isn't a secret anymore. I believe that any investment institution in the United States will not let go of such a money-making opportunity." Jesse said calmly. Although he didn't know why Li Qingyang would ask this question, Jesse still told him the truth.
He didn't think that Li Qingyang was spying. Anyone who knew about the financial market would know what was going to happen next. If Li Qingyang, who had just made a fortune, didn't know, Jesse wouldn't believe it. He wouldn't be so na?ve.
"Alright, since you all want to go short, what if I'm going to go up?”。Li Qingyang said with a smile.
"Impossible. Everyone knows that the Euros will only continue to sink. There's no possibility of it rising. This joke isn't funny at all." Jesse felt that Li Qingyang was teasing him.
"Is that so? That's good too. It'll be easier for us to reach an agreement." Li Qingyang said confidently.
Oh, I'd like to hear the details. You know, I'm even more interested in Mr. Li's bet now." Li Qingyang's words piqued Jesse's interest.
"Alright, in that case, I'll talk to Mr. Jesse. "I'll pay 68 million to make up 150 million USD. If it's not enough, Criti will make up for it."
"Criti gave me a hundred times the leverage to operate. If it's really like what you said, and the Euros continue to sink, when the principal falls below 100 million, Centibank can withdraw from the market at any time, and my 68 million will be Centibank's compensation. What do you think?"
After Li Qingyang finished speaking, Jesse fell into deep thought. Li Qingyang was not in a hurry and continued to taste the red wine. He knew that Jesse would definitely agree because Li Qingyang's plan was profitable.
Li Qingyang was right. Even Jesse wanted to agree to it immediately. Now that all the major investment banks were short selling, they wanted to take the opportunity to make a profit. Even if it was 150 million yuan, it was just a drop in the bucket.
With a loss of 50 million yuan, he could still make a net profit of 18 million yuan after taking Li Qingyang's 68 million yuan. As for the staff expenses, it was just the tip of the iceberg compared to the 18 million yuan.
As for rising prices? Jesse didn't think that way. Even if there was a miracle, Criti would be able to get close to such a big client without any loss. Why not?
However, what he couldn't understand was where Li Qingyang got his confidence from. He believed that the Euros would definitely rise. Bet? Impossible. He didn't believe that Li Qingyang had earned so much money purely by luck. This was a little nonsensical. Then where did his confidence come from?
There were only two possibilities for the rise of the Euros.
First, those investors would no longer be short-selling. They would rely on Li Qingyang to inject 15 billion into the market with 100 times leverage to drive the participation of individual investors. However, this was simply impossible.
It was impossible to stop the investors who smelled money like sharks smelling blood.
The second was the government's rescue. At that time, it was not so easy to rescue the market. Even the full support of the European and American governments could only ensure that the current Eurodollar would not fall. It was almost impossible for it to rise. Unless more countries joined in and were willing to help the European Union and save the European Union.
But Jess had never received any information about this. If that was really the case, it was impossible for Criti not to know, and it was impossible for other investment banks not to know.
Jess couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it anymore. Just like what Li Qingyang said, he couldn't refuse to eat the fat meat that was in his mouth.
After thinking about it, a smile appeared on Jesse's face. He stood up, picked up his glass, and said," Mr. Li, I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
Jesse's promise surprised Li Qingyang.
