Chapter 452 - 451: Seizing the First Opportunity

Chapter 452: Chapter 451: Seizing the First Opportunity

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the morning of February 10th.

At this moment, Kyle, a super-rich man in the U.S., was playing golf with Little Edward Roski at a golf course in the Brooklyn district of New York.

Playing golf?

Heh, playing my foot!

The main thing was that Kyle’s golf skills were just terrible!

"Hahaha, Kyle, I originally thought that since you’re so good at making money, your golf skills wouldn’t be bad either. I didn’t expect you to be this bad." Roski laughed uncontrollably, the wrinkles on his face bunching up.

"Come on, is there any necessary connection between the two?"

Kyle didn’t mind, waving his hand and smiling: "In my opinion, golf is a retirement sport. If I have the time, I’d much rather go swimming, play soccer, or play basketball."

After a pause, Kyle added: "Oh, by the way, I want to ask, do you know anyone who specializes in high-end renovation?"

High-end renovation?

Kyle had just spent $60 million to acquire Depeche Manor from Turner Depeche. Depeche Manor was indeed excellent, with complete facilities, however... Kyle wasn’t very satisfied with some of the design styles.

Fashionable, youthful, technological, athletic...

These were the elements Kyle loved. Likewise, for the upcoming renovation work of Depeche Manor, Kyle also hoped to incorporate these elements.

"I see."

Little Edward Roski understood and said: "I mainly focus on commercial real estate and amusement park real estate projects, but when it comes to high-end renovation and manor remodeling, I do know quite a few people. You should have heard of my good friend, Little John Menard."

Little John Menard?

"I know him!"

"He is the largest real estate developer in Wisconsin and also the boss of Menards Home Improvement, the largest personal home improvement chain brand in the U.S."

"Menards Home Improvement company has a market value of as high as $6 billion."

"His personal net worth is also over $2 billion, a big tycoon."

Kyle spoke as if counting his family treasures.

Kyle indeed had a thorough understanding of Little John Menard.

Once upon a time, when Kyle wanted to invest in real estate projects, he had considered both Menards Home Improvement and Roski Real Estate. Well, even though Kyle ultimately chose Roski Real Estate, he was very familiar with Menards Home Improvement company.

Little John Menard was also a big shot with a personal net worth of over $18.8 billion in 2020, even a step ahead of Little Edward Roski.

"Kyle, you can rest assured if you hand over your manor renovation to Menard, but his fees are not cheap." Roski laughed.

High fees?

Heh, Kyle wasn’t worried at all!

"It might just be that today, and it won’t take long, I’ll be able to earn back the money spent on the manor renovation." Kyle thought to himself.

...

As the saying goes: sometimes when you think of something, it happens~

Ring, ring, ring~

A phone call came to Kyle’s mobile phone.

"Boss, this is Andy Cherop!"

"Just now, I received news that the Japanese ’Ehime’ training ship was struck and sunk by the U.S. Navy’s ’Greeneville’ nuclear submarine near Oahu, Hawaii. All 9 people on the ’Ehime’ were killed!"

"Now, the whole of Hawaii is going crazy!"

"I estimate it won’t be long before news programs in both Japan and the U.S. will push this story."

During the communication, Andy Cherop, as the president of Gale Capital, couldn’t suppress his inner excitement at all.

Dead people?

Heh, for these Wall Street elites, they didn’t care at all. What they cared about was how many dollars they could earn from this incident.

Yes!

At this moment, Kyle almost jumped up with excitement!

It wasn’t that Kyle wasn’t calm or steady, but that he had finally waited for this moment after much anticipation!

"Andy, drop everything you’re doing immediately and take full charge of this operation. Hit the japanese’s futures and stock markets hard for me!" Kyle said loudly.

"Yes, boss!"

Andy Cherop said on the phone: "I am already contacting Japan’s Asahi Bank. At most in three minutes, our $100 million margin will be in place; at most in five minutes, the minimum 20x leverage can be activated!"

As the words fell.

Kyle couldn’t help but praise: "Well done! You take full charge, I’m heading back to the company immediately."

"Yes, boss, just watch."

The phone call ended.

At this moment, Little Edward Roski, who was standing next to Kyle, looked at Kyle with suspicion.

He watched Kyle’s rapidly changing expression, his heart full of doubts.

"Heh!"

Kyle raised the corner of his mouth and smiled: "Buddy, in a few minutes, I’ll be able to earn the cost of my manor renovation. In an hour, I estimate I’ll be able to buy another Depeche Manor!"

Little Edward Roski: "..."

...

Meanwhile.

Just as Kyle was leisurely driving to Gale Capital, every investment bank on Wall Street was almost going crazy with excitement.

"My God!"

"This is a windfall from heaven!"

"The news that the Japanese ’Ehime’ training ship was just struck and sunk was exposed, and Japan’s Nikkei index plunged by 1 point in such a short time, and it is still falling."

"It’s crazy, everyone is crazy now!"

The elites of Wall Street investment banks immediately began to withdraw funds to enter the Japanese market, or immediately adjusted the leverage of the limited funds they had in Japan, and began to operate at the first moment.

"Quick, quick, quick~"

"Don’t just stand there, time is money, millions are changing hands every minute!"

...

Quantum Fund.

"Everyone shut up now!"

Soros roared at the chaotic crowd: "I want to know now, how much money do we have in floating capital in Japan?"

"$300 million! Boss, currently we have $300 million in capital in the Japanese market." Ellison, the executive in charge of Asian affairs, immediately replied.

"What?"

Hearing this, Soros’ face changed, and he roared: "In such a large Japanese financial market, we only have $300 million. What kind of joke is this?!"

Endless anger...

The people present were suddenly silent as cicadas in winter.

Quantum Fund was definitely a famous financial investment company on Wall Street, managing assets of over $30 billion, but due to the recent stability of the Japanese market, Quantum Fund did not have much capital in the Japanese market at the moment.

In a short period of time, it was impossible to withdraw too much capital.

Not being able to make a lot of money when there is money to be made is undoubtedly quite uncomfortable for these gluttonous Wall Street people.

"Hmph!"

Soros snorted coldly: "Cezech, Balito, I require you to withdraw at least $1 billion in capital within 1 hour and enter the Japanese market."

"Yes, boss."

Everyone nodded and agreed immediately, cold sweat breaking out.

With U.S.-Japan relations so tense and severe at the moment, withdrawing $1 billion in just 1 hour is not an easy task, even for Quantum Fund.

After all, you are going to Japan to "rob" them!

...

Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch, Morgan, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs... ℴ

A group of large Wall Street investment banks were also frantically targeting the three major markets of Japan: futures, stocks, and foreign exchange.

"Time is money!"

"Damn, this happened too suddenly, we couldn’t react at all!"

"That’s right, it’s a good thing our company is strong enough to react in the shortest time and join this battle. However, those small and medium-sized Wall Street investment banks, even if they reacted, couldn’t urgently mobilize enough U.S. dollars in such a short time to hit the Japanese market, right?"

...

Many investment banks were swearing non-stop, but... they couldn’t help but feel a burst of excitement.

This is robbing money!

No loss, only profit~

However, among the many investment banks, the person who snatched the most delicious cake first was Kyle’s Gale Capital Company.

$2 billion!

In such a short time, the person who immediately targeted the Japanese stock, futures, and foreign exchange markets and made money first, who else could it be but Kyle?!
