Chapter 906 – Professor Liang’s worries
“From what I see, those Western speculators are useless. Even the Thai Government can think of ways to stop them. What’s there to worry about in Hong Kong?” A Hong Kong tycoon, whose surname is Zhou, said.
“That’s right. The previous time, the Thai Government had used 2 billion USD from their foreign reserve to stop it. This time, they are using 5 billion USD and other measures. This should stop Soros!” Another tycoon added.
“Superman Li and Fu Rongqi are worrying too much. Soros and his gang had tried to test Hong Kong’s financial market and were chased away by us within a few days. They even canceled their future contracts.”
A few tycoons were discussing what happened, and every one of them was optimistic. All of them felt Soros is nothing to be afraid of. Only Professor Liang, who was watching them, felt worried.
These people do not know how powerful Soros is. If Soros is only capable of these, how can he create havoc in England and Mexico?
Hong Kong’s economy is doing well, but there are many similarities to Thailand. For example, many people are speculating in properties and shares blindly, and many people are heavily in debt.
Even if Hong Kong’s economy is doing well, can it even be compared to England and Mexico?
Also, Soros and his men are experienced in the financial market. Which of these tycoons dare to call themselves financial experts? How many of them are willing to use their money to defend against Soros?
Professor Liang remembered during a chat with Fu Rongqi a few days ago, Fu Rongqi had said. Don’t place your bets on these people. They are only willing to enjoy riches with you but will never endure hardship together. They will only participate when they see an opportunity to make money. Just like that time when they attacked the Japanese companies’ share prices.
But when they are unsure or did not see any money-making opportunities, they will escape faster than a rabbit. Before the return of Hong Kong, the British had been contacting these tycoons, asking them to migrate.
The British had been secretly spreading conspiracy theories about the Communist Party. They claimed that once Hong Kong is returned to China, Hong Kong will return to China olden days. The wealth of the people will be confiscated by the Chinese Government.
The Chinese Government will also settle the scores with Hong Kongers, and many people will be punished. Last year, China had imposed a crackdown and had severely punished a lot of people. Many people were executed!
These rumors had let many millionaires choose British nationality. Currently, Hong Kong is still a British Colony, and it’s easy for Hong Kongers to get a British nationality in a few days. Furthermore, these tycoons will be bringing their money to the UK and will get approvals immediately!
Of course, some can’t bear to leave Hong Kong. For example, Superman Li, Fu Rongqi, etc. The Chinese Government had promised them that Hong Kong will still be ruled by Hong Kongers, and their status will be increased. Tycoons like Superman Li and Fu Rongqi were even invited to hold a critical position in the Government. The ranks given to them are Sub-National Leader!
Some of the Hong Kong tycoons had chosen to migrate to Australia, Canada, and other countries related to England.
Of course, some chose to move to the US, but there are not a lot of them. Some also chose to migrate to Southeast Asian countries, like Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, etc. The Chinese population in these countries are higher, and many of the tycoons have investments there!
Professor Liang thought the tycoons who remained should at least love Hong Kong, even if they don’t like China. But every one of them disappoints him.
Many of the tycoons depended on their fathers to get to where they are today. But all of them behaved like they are the ones who started their businesses from scratch. Those that started successful businesses from scratch will never behave like this!
Do they still dare to belittle Soros? Any of Soros’s subordinates can sweep them aside easily. If no one discovers that Soros had built up a Short position future contract portfolio in Hong Kong, Hong Kong’s financial market would already be in chaos.
Look at what these people are saying. They thought they know the financial market well after making some money from their shares? Many of them are speculating on properties, and they make it sound like they are real estate developers.
“Professor Liang, why do you look so gloomy?” Fu Guangzheng moved closer to Professor Liang and ask.
Professor Liang is someone respected by Feng Yu and Fu Rongqi. Both tried to recruit him and had offered lucrative terms, but failed.
Among the second generations, some just want to enjoy life, but some are smarter. Fu Guangzheng felt that if he can recruit Professor Liang to work for him, then he will surely be the future head of the Fu family!
Feng Yu’s business is huge, and he had handled everything to the General Managers to manage them. What else does Fu Guangzheng have to worry about? Furthermore, he will be the one who makes the final decision, and even if Professor Liang is working for him, he doesn’t follow everything he says. Fu Guangzheng can set up a team to manage his company.
Fu Guangzheng can also consult his Eldest Uncle and Feng Yu when he encounters problems.
Professor Liang turned his head and saw Fu Guangzheng. This young man from the Fu Family had been asking him a lot of questions recently. He has a good impression of this young man and felt he is very humble. This young man is also Feng Yu’s good friend.
“All of them are too optimistic. Soros is not so easily defeated. His previous attempt to attack Hong Kong is only to test the market. Since he knows we are prepared, the next attack will be much harder and faster!” Professor Laing sighed. Luckily, there are still people like Feng Yu, Fu Rongqi, and Superman Li, who are not blinded by the initial success.
The small-time tycoons are very proud. But for the real tycoons like Superman Li and the rest, are modest. Maybe it’s because of the modest character they got to where they are now.
If Professor Liang has to choose to work for one of the tycoons, he will surely pick the modest ones, even if the salary is lower.
“Professor Liang, don’t worry too much. My Uncle, Uncle Li, and Feng Yu are all prepared. I had also contacted some friends to prepare a sum of money. We will not let Hong Kong be destroyed by those speculators.” Fu Guangzheng consoled.
“I believe you all are prepared, and will also not lose money. But what about the rest? What about those normal citizens? Even if you lose 100 million, you will still be a tycoon, and your life will not change. But if the ordinary citizens lose 1 million, they might jump off the building!”
“Professor Liang, we can think of a way to do something for the citizens. Can we remind them and ask them to be cautious?” Fu Guangzheng suggested.
“We can remind them, but it will be useless. We will be chaotic even before Soros, and his men still had not launched their attack. Also, Hong Kong’s return to China is in one month. What do you think will happen to your Fu family if Hong Kong is in chaos because of your warnings?” Professor Liang patted Fu Guangzheng’s shoulder.
This young man is kind, but he did not think far when facing problems.
Fu Guangzheng thought for a while and asked. “How about we combine the funds of those citizens and let you manage it? If you are managing this fund, can you guarantee that you will not suffer losses?”
Combining everyone’s fund and let me manage it? Professor Liang looked at Fu Guangzheng and wondered how he is going to get the citizens to hand over their money.
