Chapter 1190 - Tragic event

Chapter 1190 – Tragic event

Feng Yu and Li Na’s jaws were aching after smiling the whole day, and they left for their honeymoon the next day, as they do not want to be disturbed.

They visited famous locations worldwide for about a month before returning to China, as school is starting.

Feng Yu told Li Na that they can go on vacations during the summer holidays every year.

It’s a big world out there, and they should travel more.

Feng Yu made a trip to Hong Kong before flying to the US. But he only spends a day in New York before flying to his mansion in Seattle.

Feng Yu is satisfied with Bezos’s performance as Amazon’s market had expanded again. Amazon had also done well in promoting Alipay and Paypal. Although Alipay is still losing money, Feng Yu doesn’t mind.

Alipay does not impose transaction charges on their users like Paypal, and it’s normal for them to suffer losses. What’s most important is the data collected from the transactions. The data will bring higher profits than Paypal in the future.

But Feng Yu had not come to Seattle because of Amazon. It is because he doesn’t want to remain in New York as it is too dangerous there.

In Feng Yu’s previous life, a major tragic event will happen in a few days. He does not know if it will happen again in this life, and he is powerless to stop it. He can only pray that even if it happens again, it will not be so tragic.

Feng Yu do not like those people. Even if the two countries are at war, attacking the civilians is too much. Why was Japan criticized severely during World War Two? It is because of this reason. Why was Italy the first country to be forgiven by Europe? That’s because they had treated the Prisoner of war well and did not attack the civilians.

Feng Yu doesn’t understand why Italy had participated in the war. Italy might have advanced weaponry at that time, but their soldiers are too weak.

Italian soldiers have the highest surrender rate at that time. An invader having a higher surrender rate than the region they invaded? What a joke.

Why did Feng Yu insist on shorting the US stock markets all this while? That is because if this incident happens, the US stock markets will crash.

That’s why Feng Yu insisted Wind and Rain Consulting to continue to short the market even when they had lost all their profits.

If this incident did not happen, Feng Yu would switch his investment’s direction immediately. Anyway, he had been hedging to lower his risks. Even if he suffered some losses here, he could earn back his money from elsewhere. His investment firm’s clients will still have high returns at year-end.

But if the tragic incident really happens, Feng Yu will become the World’s Richest Man even if his companies are not listed!

Shorting the market since last year will not let people suspect Feng Yu has something to do with those people or receiving first-hand and not disclosing the information.

Wind and Rain Consulting had been making profits and losses all this while.

……

“Boss, are we continuing to copy Wind and Rain Consulting? Although the stock index had recovered several times and Feng Yu used the information to suppress it. Still, there should be no more scandals this time. The stock index’s recovery cannot be stopped this time!” Drucken Miller asked. He is the only one out of Soros’ four top fund managers remaining.

Soros is looking terrible as he hesitates. He noticed Feng Yu suddenly shorting the US stock markets, especially Nasdaq, and followed.

Soon, Enron’s scandal was exposed, followed by Microsoft’s sudden dumping, and many other companies’ shares caused the market to crash. Soros had made high profits.

But after that period, Wind and Rain Consulting continued to short the stock market. Soros felt the market will recover, and he stopped shorting and invested in some shares. The market recovered slightly, and he made some profits from his investment.

But very soon, WorldCom’s scandal was exposed.

Luckily, Soros reacted fast and had been hedging to lower his risks. He even made a small profit.

Now, the stock index is starting to rise slowly again. If they continue to short the market, they will surely lose money. But they received news that Wind and Rain Consulting did not settle their short position contracts. It seems that they think the stock index will continue to fall.

Soros also felt that there should not be any reason for the stock market to fall again. But Feng Yu is an investment genius. That’s why he is hesitating.

……

“Mr. Feng, are you going to walk Tu Hao again?”

“Yes. Let me walk him today.” Feng Yu went for a walk with his dog, and after he returned, he did not play games on his PC, Gbox, or read his books. He switches on the TV, which is out of the ordinary.

Feng Yu seldom watch US TV programs. After all, Feng Yu does not find these programs interesting due to cultural differences.

But today, Feng Yu sat in front of the TV to wait and see if the tragic event will happen in this life.

Suddenly, Feng Yu’s house phone rang. He quickly picks it, and it was a market survey call. He hangs up straight away even though the female caller has a nice voice.

After a while, Feng Yu’s mobile phone rang. It is from Ralph.

The moment Feng Yu answered, Ralph’s panicking voice sounded. “Boss, are you in New York?”

“I am still in Seattle. What happened?” Feng Yu has a premonition that the incident had happened again!

“The World Trade Center… many people are trying to escape.”

“Is the Wind and Rain Empire Building alright?”

“We are safe here. But many of our staff are panicking and trying to get out of the building. Some companies are trying to use this opportunity to earn money.”

“Glad to hear that you all are fine. Our staff should be in shock. Give them a few days off from work. Give a sum of money to those that don’t want to rest. Oh, hurry up and call your family to let them know you are safe.”

After hanging up, the TV program was interrupted with a piece of emergency news about this incident.

The host on TV quickly explained what happened, and the footage was switched to two burning buildings. Screams and shouts can be heard from the background.

But Feng Yu knew this is not the end of this disaster.
