At night, New York City was completely lit up. The lights were so bright that people were immersed in the most prosperous city in the world.
At this stage, New York was indeed the most developed and advanced city in the world. However, this lively atmosphere made people intoxicated, as if it was a lifetime ago.
The streets of Queen Street were a little congested at this hour, but Jesse and Li Qingyang, who was sitting next to him, were not in a hurry. The two of them were planning to attend Simon's party.
In the United States, the party culture was deeply rooted in people's hearts. Americans loved to party. They moved to a new house, found a good job, their children went to school, and even bought a small piece of furniture to hold a party.
Not to mention holidays, weekends, and some large-scale festivals. As a result, many listed companies that spent money on parties were cultivated. Their one-stop service was deeply loved by Americans. It saved the owner a lot of trouble. All he had to do was sign his name on the checkbook.
For businessmen, especially big businessmen like Simon and Jesse. The parties were even more common. They basically had to attend every day. Some people said that American business was done at parties, and this was true. It was similar to sex business at the wine table.
The party was organized by Citicorp to find investors for companies that had difficulties dealing with Citicorp.
The economic crisis had not completely passed. The US economy had improved somewhat, but it was still far from reaching expectations. It was even more disastrous for those tech stocks. Some went bankrupt and some withdrew their shares. Many of them urgently needed new investors to inject funds to help the company tide over this crisis.
This was what Jesse told Li Qingyang in the afternoon, which made Li Qingyang even more interested in this party.
In the car, the Cadillac was waiting for the traffic light to stop in the lane. Jesse continued to talk to Li Qingyang," In my opinion, the effect of this party is minimal. Since the economic crisis, technology stocks have fallen sharply, and less than 10% of technology companies remain. "The investors are all watching and some don't believe in tech stocks.
"How many of them can reach the scale of Apple and Google? Can't you see that the market value of the company has shrunk to less than 1% of its peak?" Jesse sighed.
Li Qingyang smiled but didn't say anything. It didn't seem like he was involved.
"However, you have to be careful. Those people will surround you today as if they saw a beauty. It couldn't be helped. Who asked you to have such attractive funds in your hands now? "Hahaha!" After that, Jess laughed.
He was right. In less than a day, Li Qingyang's wealth had grown in an exaggerated way. Now, it had reached more than 800 million US dollars, nearly 900 million. The most important thing was that this was not the final number. It was still increasing at a high speed.
In Jesse's words, this was f * cking unbelievable. In the afternoon, before the two of them set off, Li Qingyang casually asked about the profits. A leader called John Xun reported to Li Qingyang with an exaggerated expression.
When Jesse heard that the profit was more than 800 million, he was dumbfounded. He kept muttering that God had abandoned his loyal people.
" Let's see. If there's a project that I'm interested in, I don't recommend playing God." Li Qingyang said.
It was indeed as Jesse said. Tonight, he would become the focus of the party. Including the capital, he would be worth more than 900 million dollars. Most importantly, Li Qingyang wasn't like other wealthy people who owned real estate. He had real money.
Initially, Li Qingyang wanted to keep a low profile. However, Jesse told him that the news of him earning 800 million yuan in a few hours had spread throughout Wall Street in the evening. Now, everyone in New York knew about it.
Even before the two of them came out, there were television stations that wanted to interview Li Qingyang, but Li Qingyang was rejected by Jesse. He did not want to be too ostentatious. This was not a good thing.
If he made money, it meant that someone else lost money. The ones who suffered the biggest losses were definitely the individual investors. Big companies wouldn't be able to accompany him anywhere. It couldn't be helped. The stock and foreign exchange markets were like this. The big fish ate the small fish, and the small fish ate the shrimps. The shrimps could only be slaughtered. If he was lucky, he could make a small profit by possessing a fish.
Those individual investors were like shrimps.
As the car drove on the road, the two of them chatted from time to time. After about an hour, the two of them arrived at the Great Xia called Wales.
The two of them got out of the car. After Jesse locked the car door, Li Qingyang said," Oh right, find a professional Western chef to improve their food. Then, he took out a million yuan and gave it to them as a bonus. I think Criti will be willing to pay for this one million first, right?"
"Why not? We're friends, aren't we? But you're really generous. I've only worked for you for less than 12 hours, and you've already given me a million dollars as a bonus." Even though he said that, he still took out his phone and explained these things.
" Since I've eaten meat, of course I can't lose out to the people who worked for me. Only then will they work for me willingly. Isn't this also compensation for the past few days?"
The foreign exchange market was not like stocks. There was no closing price. The opening price was 24 hours a day. This also meant that the traders had to take turns to keep watch. When they were sleepy, they could only rest on the chairs and could not go home in case something major happened.
You're not just eating meat. If you're eating meat, then I definitely won't dare to eat meat in the future because I'm afraid I can't afford it." Jesse said humorously.
This joke isn't funny at all."
The two of them entered the elevator.
