Chapter 608: Let Yourself Go Chapter 1

Compared to fleecing the skinny sheep in his own sheepfold, Fan Wumian felt that it was more interesting to fleece the sheep in the international market.

Doing business in China is almost like picking up money. There are too many blank markets nowadays, and it is almost a wasteland. There is almost no challenge for him. His competitors are still relatively weak, a bit like a professional boxer beating up junior high and high school students.

Doing business abroad is different. It can be more exciting at times, but there are more uncertainties.

Seeing the subprime mortgage crisis approaching, he even began to feel that it was better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone. He further came up with some new ideas. He was thinking about winning over more allies as soon as possible and following the example of financial tycoon Soros, taking others to make some big moves in the international market.

In his opinion, this will help maximize the benefits and at the same time use other people's money to help himself make more profits.

Anyway, the business will grow bigger and bigger, and sooner or later it will become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of others.

Rather than hiding until a few years later, when you become an elephant hiding behind a sapling and passively become a prey in the eyes of others, it is better to seize the opportunity to enjoy life in time, establish your position in the international financial market in one fell swoop, maximize your influence, and then consider how to keep a low profile.

Recently, there have been more and more news reports mentioning him and the Paulson Hedge Fund and the WM-Rogers Hedge Fund. Even if Fan Wumian did not jump out, due to his celebrity status, he would most likely become a scapegoat pushed out by Wall Street institutions to take the blame, and he would be used as a target to attract outside fire.

If you want to make money, how can there be zero risk?
Compared to sitting and waiting for death, it is really better to take the initiative and tell others clearly, "I am so powerful!"

At the very least, as long as Fan Wumian takes the initiative to step forward, it will be particularly beneficial to the two hedge fund companies and the asset management company he established in Asia, and may even attract a large number of investors to follow.

As long as you become an overnight sensation and become a global financial celebrity like Warren Buffett or Soros, you will be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort in many things in the future.

Thoughts are clear.

When Fan Wumian decided to jump out and stand in front of the stage, he felt a lot more relaxed all over.

The feeling was probably like Goku in "Dragon Ball" who had gotten rid of his burden and could finally fight with all his might.

It's also like an honest man who is usually cowardly, but suddenly stands up and is ready to overturn the table. He finally throws away the safety that he values ​​most in his daily life and plans to let himself go and have fun.

After carefully evaluating the risks of personally appearing in public, he actually felt that it was a mixed bag, barely within an acceptable range. As long as he could win over a few powerful allies on Wall Street and do everything according to market rules, there shouldn't be too much trouble.

Many descendants of robbers don't understand why we should be polite and humble when talking to people in Europe and America.

But if we learn from the bigwigs on Wall Street, jump out of the water and bite our prey hard with our teeth, seize the opportunity to show off our muscles and let them know what "ferocious" means, it will at least be good for Paulson Hedge Fund and WM-Rogers Hedge Fund. It can also help the international version of Penguin Weibo and attract more people's attention.

Sometimes doing business is like being an artist. The more famous you are, the easier it is to succeed.

The same script may win numerous praises if it is performed by a big-name star, but if it is replaced by a little-known newcomer, it will be a failure.

For asset management companies, whether there is a big shot who can control the situation will directly affect the confidence of potential investors. Companies like Soros' Quantum Fund and Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway are both enduring and popular star companies.

Fan Wumian looked around and found that no one could help him in this area, so he had to consider showing up in person.

Although there is a risk of being blamed afterwards, fortunately the potential returns are also amazing, so overall it doesn't hurt to take some risks. At worst, he can wait until the financial tsunami caused by the subprime mortgage crisis is over, and then set foot on American soil in a few years. By then, the investors who have suffered heavy losses should not hate him so much.

The most amazing thing is that if he is a little thicker-skinned, he can make another movie similar to "The Big Short". Fan Wumian does not mind playing himself and pushing himself to the "altar" of the global asset management industry, and making some pocket money from the global movie market.

Pu Jiajing only knew that Fan Wumian was distracted and dazed, and had no idea what kind of big game he was thinking about.

At this moment.

She nudged Fan Wumian with her elbow and said excitedly:
"Finally, a customer has arrived! He brought a bone-cutting knife? Wow, this knife looks quite heavy. Could it be that he is selling pork in the market?"

Fan Wumian came back to his senses instantly. For the time being, he only grasped the general direction, as there were still many details that needed to be sorted out.

He said in a slow and leisurely tone, "Didn't Fan Wei mention it in his skit? A person with a big head and thick neck is either a wealthy man or a cook. He looks more like a cook, and he smells like rapeseed oil."

really.

The old man who was sharpening the shovel and scissors looked at it carefully and asked:
"Your restaurant business is so good, and you just sharpened your knife two months ago, but it's dull again? Other kitchen knives can be sharpened for three or four yuan, but yours is made of fine steel, so it's too difficult to sharpen. You should at least give me five yuan."

The salary of a cook is not low, he can earn two to three thousand yuan a month, and he replied openly:
"Okay, but you need to help me reinforce the handle of the knife. It's a bit loose. The restaurant has been selling mutton noodles in the morning recently, and they use my knife to chop bones. Even if my knife is made of bearings, it's a bit unbearable to chop several sheep a day."

The knife sharpener's eyes brightened when he thought of the money, and he exclaimed:

"How many sheep can you use in a day if you sell mutton noodles in the morning? How much money can you make?"

"We raise about two sheep a day, and use imported sheep fat chili sauce. I thought it was too spicy and few people would eat it, but I didn't expect many young people to not believe it, and some even came from other cities. The price of a bowl of noodles has increased from 7 yuan to 12 yuan. People start queuing at 5 a.m. and are busy until about 11 a.m. Before they have time to drink a cup of tea, they have to continue making lunch."

After the chef finished speaking, he sighed and said:

"I'm just an employee, working for others. Unlike our boss, he just bought a Magotan last week, and it's a V6 premium model."

Perhaps it was because Pu Jiajing, who was dressed up carefully, did not fit in with the people who came to the market. The chef could not help but take a few more glances at her, and then he caught a glimpse of Fan Wumian, who was wearing a baseball cap.

At first glance, he thought it looked familiar. After a closer look, the chef was terrified. He widened his eyes and asked:

"Am I seeing right? You are the big star in Hong Kong? The one who sang "You Hide Me, I Hide You" and "Under the Mount Fuji"!?"

Fan Wumian just smiled and made a "hush" gesture, saying:

"The crew from our company is here to film, so I came to take a look. Is your restaurant's noodles delicious? Do you still have any at this time?"

The chef with a big face and thick neck was not a fan of Fan Wumian, but he had a computer at home and often saw news about him on the news. He was immediately at a loss and said:

"We don't have any now. We ran out of noodles this morning. But if you want some, I can go buy some now!"

Fan Wumian smiled and shook his head and said:
"Don't bother. Does your restaurant sell anything else besides noodles?"

"Yes, we sell roasted whole lamb. We sell noodles in the morning because business is not good. If you want to eat, Mr. Fan, I will save one for you?"

"Roast a few more, about seven or eight sheep. I'll treat the crew to dinner tonight."

Fan Wumian didn't want to be disturbed, so he asked for the hotel address and continued walking forward. Unexpectedly, he saw someone selling antiques, all of which were obviously fake.

The old man who was sharpening the shovel and scissors couldn't help but ask:

"The handsome boy just now, is he also filming a TV series? I see a lot of people came today, saying they want to film a scene of catching thieves."

The chef was very excited and said in an exaggerated tone:
"He doesn't know me, but I know him. The company that came here to film today is Boss Fan's business! He's considered one of the richest men in Hong Kong. You know the billionaires, right? He's worth more than 100 billion! Even a little bit of it would be enough to make someone rich for the rest of their life."

If you say there are millions, it will definitely scare the old man sharpening the knife.

Speaking of more than 100 billion, the old man was completely lost. He couldn't even imagine this astronomical figure. He pointed his finger at his head and muttered:

"So he's a big boss. I just saw him standing there in a daze and thought there was something wrong with him." (End of this chapter)
