My Age of Investment

  Chapter 756 Money never sleeps

  After Xia Jingxing and the people around him greeted each other, the party scene returned to its usual appearance, and the well-dressed Wall Street bigwigs were talking in twos and threes.

Bellankfan turned sideways and whispered to Xia Jingxing: "They just met you today, and they won't show excessive enthusiasm. If you are interested in who or the company behind him, you can talk to him directly, or I will go with you. also."

  Xia Jingxing feels that Lao Bei’s thoughts are really delicate, and he deserves to be the king of pimping, and the service is almost non-existent.

  Mak Jinheng was unwilling to be left behind, and said with a smile: "Dalun, wait for you to attend a few more parties, and everyone should be familiar with you, so don’t worry too much."

  Xia Jingxing smiled, "I understand, it will be fine if the two of you are busy with you."

  The two were worried that Xia Jingxing would feel left out. They didn't leave there, and they chatted with Xia Jingxing for a while before voluntarily leaving.

The single Xia Jingxing seemed a little out of tune with the surroundings. He simply walked to the dining area, took a plate, sandwiched a few small cakes, and leaned against the table to eat.

  In the distance, Ivanka who saw this scene said sorry to the ladies around, and the Lianbu style walked towards Xia Jing.

   "Ivanka, you just came here, taste the cake here, it tastes quite good." Xia Jingxing muttered while chewing on the food.

   "Really? Then I have to try it."

  Ivanka approached with a smile on her face, leaned down and glanced at the plate in Xia Jingxing’s hand, pointed to a piece of strawberry cake and said, "I want to eat this piece."

  Xia Jingxing handed the plate in front of Ivanka and said, "Okay, wait a minute, I'll get you some pieces."

  Ivanka took the plate, looked at Xia Jingxing with a sincere smile in front of him, and sighed in her heart. Is it because I hinted that it was not obvious enough?

  Xia Jingxing trot a few steps, picked up the empty plate on the table, sandwiched five or six pieces of cake, and walked back with the plate grinning.

"give."

  Ivanka looked at the cream cakes on the plate, she went crazy, she was not interested when she saw the cream as a model.

  I just wanted to feed the man in front of her to feed her. Who knows that this iron-hearted silly has no way of understanding the style, and has put back so many high-calorie cakes on his own initiative.

  She thought bitterly in her heart, just to bear with it, and to bear with it.

  Taking the plate Xia Jingxing handed her, Ivanka also gave up and began to feast on it.

  Xia Jingxing smirked in her heart, but pretended not to know anything on her face. She took a bite of the cake and looked at Ivanka.

  Under the gaze of Xia Jingxing, Ivanka resisted the discomfort and ate a plate of cakes.

   "Come on again? This party may be late. Don't be hungry."

  Listening to Xia Jingxing’s caring words, Ivanka waved her hand quickly, "No...no...hcc...hcc..."

   "You choked? You wait, I'll pour you a glass of juice."

  Xia Jingxing ran out eagerly, and soon returned with a glass of orange juice.

  Ivanka drank a few big mouthfuls of orange juice, and finally felt more comfortable in her heart.

  "Daren, have we been here to guard the food area?"

  Ivanka was angry, glanced at the long table next to it, full of food, and began to tease Xia Jingxing.

   "The old guys think I'm more handsome than them, so they don't talk to me." Xia Jingxing spread his hands and looked helpless.

  Ivanka chuckled and said, "Like what I have experienced before, they must wear colored glasses to see you, and refuse to admit your efforts. Success is attributed to luck."

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "Perhaps! Anyway, I don’t want to take care of these old men, so I might as well have some cake with you."

   Hearing the word "cake", Ivan Kali immediately got a black line. She was already afraid of the man in front of her, and she didn't understand women at all.

  The two were chatting, and a man in the dining area pretended to see Xia Jingxing inadvertently.

   "Hey, Darren, why are you here?"

  Hearing the sound, Xia Jingxing and the foreign girl looked over, a white man with a hooked nose, about 60 years old, put down the plate in his hand, and walked towards them with a smile on his face.

  "Mr. Fuld, we are discussing the cake tonight. The strawberry flavor is amazing."

  Xia Jingxing smiled and looked at the Lehman Brothers CEO in front of him. He was originally an Air Force pilot with a fierce personality. He was punished by assaulting the chief for fighting injustices for his subordinates in the army.

  After retiring, he went to work on Wall Street, and he did not change his unruly character. He made countless enemies and was called the "Bulldog of Wall Street."

  During the 9.11 incident, he calmly directed the evacuation of employees, and was able to convert a hotel into Lehman headquarters decisively and quickly, saving a lot of company losses, and it was a good story on Wall Street.

  At the same time, he led Lehman to enter the subprime bond market in 2004 and bought a large number of CDOs.

   "Really? Then I must try the strawberry cake later."

  Fuld took a look at Ivanka and then withdrew his gaze, focusing on Xia Jingxing's main line of sight.

   Then he took out another business card and handed it to Xia Jingxing, saying, "This is my personal business card. You are welcome to visit Lehman at any time."

  After releasing his kindness, Ferd left without any cake.

  "This is the CEO of Lehman?" Ivanka looked at Xia Jingxing.

"Yes."

  Xia Jingxing has basically guessed what Fuld is thinking about. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have done four transactions on Facebook, including pledged loans, bond underwriting, IPO underwriting, and equity investment.

  As a large investment bank alongside Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, Lehman cannot fail to see this. It is normal to try to dig a corner.

  "Young man, can you talk to me about the Internet? I like these technology companies very much."

  A meticulous old white man with a large bald forehead and a white hair on the back of his head appeared beside them with a glass of wine.

  Xia Jingxing turned his head and smiled, "Mr. Madoff, how dare I show off in front of you? Without you, there would be no Nasdaq today."

  The person here is Bernard Madoff, the former chairman of the board of directors of Nasdaq. Under his leadership, Nasdaq has become a stock exchange that can compete with the New York Stock Exchange.

  The old man has made great contributions to the NASDAQ listing of companies such as Apple, Cisco, and Google, and is considered a loyal supporter of technology stocks.

  By embracing technology stocks, Nasdaq has also achieved its own brilliance and has become the preferred listing location for global technology stocks.

  The old man is very kind. He chatted with Xia Jingxing and laughed about the development of Facebook for a while, and he also made a heartfelt promise that if Facebook wants to be listed on the Nasdaq in the future, he will definitely help.

After getting more familiar with it, the old man finally said his purpose: "Dalun, I currently run an asset management company called Madoff Company, with an asset management scale of more than US$50 billion.

  Our rate of return in recent years has been stable at 10%-15%, regardless of market trends, the rate of return will not be lower than this number.

  I know that you young people may not look up to this rate of return.

  But if you are a hedge fund business, you can properly configure a part of a safe and risk-free investment portfolio..."

  The old man Balabala spent a long time, with a simple purpose, just to get Xia Jinghang to invest some money.

  Xia Jingxing nodded, "Okay, we will seriously consider it."

   Madoff patted Xia Jingxing on the shoulder, left a business card, and left contentedly.

  Xia Jingxing flicked the business card in his hand, sneered in his heart, the old liar actually stared at him.

  The previous Madoff fraud case set a Guinness World Record, with a fraud amount of more than 60 billion U.S. dollars, the highest in the world.

  The pitted list includes countless celebrities and famous companies such as Spielberg, HSBC, UBS, Nomura Securities and so on.

  If it were not for the subprime mortgage crisis that caused the redemption frenzy, this Ponzi scheme would not know how long it will take.

  Wall Street is such a place where crooks are rampant, there is no morality at all, and money never sleeps.
