Chapter 768: Sneak Attack

Li Changheng himself is good at buying people's hearts with money, so of course he will prevent his subordinates from being corrupted by others.

And this is why he asked Barney and Trenches to select 10 to 20 people to come out, hide inside the "reading" bureau, and do private work for himself when necessary.

As for how to keep it secret, he doesn't need to have direct contact with these people.

When setting out a mission, as long as the person leading the team is one of our own, and the mission is to search and arrest the flour merchants, we can avoid being caught as much as possible.

The most important thing is that the person Li Changheng wants to deal with at this time is the leadership of the US branch of the island company.

Smoking and eating flour is not a big problem in the United States, but scandals can easily cause confusion in branch offices and even affect the head office in the island country.

Once a person is arrested, the media reports that the islanders gather to have chaotic parties, and then focus on reporting how these people are drunk and extravagant, which can easily arouse the dissatisfaction of the American people.

When all 32 combat team members agreed to join FAST, Barney and Trenches smiled and let out a sigh of relief.

These people can be regarded as the most trusted people of the two of them in the knight shield.

At the same time, let alone Li Changheng, even the two of them are unwilling to let these people who have carried out many secret missions out of everyone's sight.

Lest someone end up impoverished due to various reasons and do things that no one wants to see.

The next day, at 11 o'clock in the evening, Li Changheng suddenly came to the investment department of Citigroup with his escort, lawyers, and accountants.

Sitting in an office of only over 40 square meters, people turn on the radio, close their eyes and wait silently.

In the next hour or so, Taylor, Director Jason, several managers and even six shareholders who received the security notice rushed over in a hurry.

Of course, this call was made on purpose according to Li Changheng's instructions.

But everyone wanted to enter the office with the door open, but they were blocked by the guards brought by Dao Feng.

Holding a Sony radio and putting it on the conference table of the investment department, Dao Feng said now, "Boss, let me tell you to listen to the radio."

When everyone heard this, they thought about it suspiciously, and soon someone reacted and exclaimed, "What does your lord mean, the war will start tomorrow?"

Blade shrugged, "Sorry, I'm just a bodyguard."

Someone immediately wanted to pick up the phone, but before they could take a few steps, they were blocked by a strong guard in a black suit.

"Gentlemen, BOSS asks you to stay quietly in the meeting room, but in return, you can follow BOSS and watch when BOSS operates the 100 million US dollar fund.

Moreover, I believe that everyone should have their own account in Citigroup, right? "

After everyone listened, the expressions on their faces changed from anger to joy.

Once the war really starts, it means that Li Changheng's judgment is correct, and then the correctness of subsequent operations in the stock market and financial market will definitely exceed 90%.

Follow the operation, it is the same as picking up money.

As for whether this is insider information, as senior practitioners in the financial field, there are still many ways to avoid punishment.

"That's not right," Director Jason reminded with a frown, "The desert is 7 hours ahead of us, and when the war really starts, our market hasn't opened yet.

By 9 o'clock tomorrow, all news will be outdated. "

"Idiot", Taylor looked at Jason with contempt, but didn't say what he guessed.

However, Jason wasn't really stupid, he quickly understood and looked at the clock on the wall.

The few other people who didn't react, followed Jason's gaze, and their eyes lit up when they quickly understood.

The island country is 13 hours faster than New York, London is 5 hours faster, and the desert side is 7 to 8 hours faster than New York.

That is to say, no matter when the fight starts in the desert tomorrow, at least there is a great chance to operate in London or the stock market of the island country.

At 1:49 a.m., when everyone was waiting anxiously, a phone rang from Li Changheng's office, which was not harsh because there was an intentionally opened door.

Everyone quickly stood up, followed the floor-to-ceiling glass windows and the door, and looked at Li Changheng in the office with excitement and anticipation.

He picked up the phone, listened for more than ten seconds, and hung up without saying a word.

Just when everyone was disappointed, Li Changheng picked up the phone again and dialed the number on the island country.

However, he also didn't speak, but heard the connection from the island country, tapped the microphone a dozen times with his fingers regularly, and then hung up.

Noda Koji, who had been waiting in the island country for a long time, was anxious, and after confirming the code word, he put down the microphone excitedly, and ran out of the office quickly.

Shouted to a dozen of his subordinates, "The action begins."

Calls were made one after another, and the crude oil and copper in the island country's futures market were bought in large quantities by 5% to 10%.

In the office, shouts of "one million dollars" and "two million dollars" were heard from time to time.

In just 8 or 9 minutes, the turnover of more than 60 million U.S. dollars made Noda Koji and the traders very excited, and at the same time, it also made the speculators in the island nation's futures market feel baffled.

I can't figure out why someone would buy copper and crude oil at such a large scale and increase the price.

For a while, the buyers in the market were frightened, so Noda Koji's staff was able to buy 60 million US dollars of spot futures within a few minutes.

But for Li Changheng, the reason is simple. When he received the call, the war did not start immediately.

Instead, the Egyptian military officer who was hidden in the desert and was bought by 500,000 US dollars reported that he had received an order for the tank to move out.

But for Li Changheng, he already knew the general trend, but in fact, he only needs to have a clear sign, and he dares to gamble with tens of millions of dollars.

Even, if it weren't for the 1 billion US dollars handed over to Citigroup, all the funds in hand were only 600 million US dollars, and the real estate worth 600 million US dollars in the island country would only be loaned 500 million US dollars.

1.1 billion only has 100 million US dollars left, and he dared to gamble 200 million or 300 million in the futures market.

After all, crude oil and copper are two raw material spot futures. Once you buy them and have the spot in your hands, even if you lose money, you will not lose everything.

3:03 p.m. Island Time, 2:03 a.m. New York time.

The phone rang again in Li Changheng's office. When he picked up the phone, Noda Koji's excited and trembling voice came from the receiver.

"BOSS?"

"explain."

Seeing Li Changheng speak, Noda knew that there was no need to keep it secret, and he didn't even need to worry about the phone being tapped.

Only then did Hui report happily, "We bought 37 million US dollars, which came from 16% of the crude oil spot futures produced by Southeast Asian countries within 3 months.

23 million US dollars in copper futures in the next 3 months. Unfortunately, these transactions are all spot transactions, and they have not been able to use leverage to expand the amount of funds. "

However, Li Changheng let out a 'hmm' indifferently. The purpose of entering the market this time is not to make money as the first goal.
