Chapter 215

Chapter 215 Let's live

Looking at Charlize, I saw a pitiful expression.

Abel is in a complicated mood right now.

Even he himself couldn't express his current feelings.

Regret? Exactly? Being annoyed ? Excited? unhappy? depression? excited? In short, a little.

"call"

He took a deep breath.

He realized that his reaction just now was perhaps a bit too extreme.

"And you?" Abel said softly, he looked at Charlize:

"Do you want to have a baby? Have you ever thought that there is a high possibility that we will not be able to get married? My family, career and personal reasons do not support me marrying you."

Even though there was such psychological preparation.

Charlize's heart was still shaking and she only felt a little pain.

Luckily, she already knew he was an asshole.

A bitch is capable of covering her life and making it better than anyone else.

Charlize stubbornly said:

"I won't get married. Ever since my mother made me leave South Africa, I swore I would never get married again in my life!

Abel pouted.

It looks nice.

Parallel time and space, even if you get married quite late.

But didn't they finally get married?

And she has three children in her life and has adopted many children in addition to her own. But I won't say such things.

He also thought it might have been Charlize then and her at that time.

Psychology and experience should be different.

This Charlize, who now belonged to him, had just turned twenty-five after the new year.

The person who gave birth to three children in a row in parallel time and space is already over forty. Different experiences, different experiences and different attitudes towards life.

Abel thought for a moment then calmly said:

"You can have it if you want. The baby will also be Smith."

"Now I give you two options: one is to go to Australia to give birth and come back when everything calms down. The other is to stay here and give birth here."

After a child's sudden emotional shock, Abel quickly calmed down.

He quickly makes various judgments based on his emotions and reason. Finally, among those judgments, he chose the decision he considered appropriate.

"After this baby is born I will. Let's set up a trust fund for the family."

"This family trust will cover your basic living expenses each year."

"In addition, the 'contract' you originally signed must also be replaced."

"I remember you initially signed a medium-term contract, but now it needs to be replaced with a long-term contract, even permanent."

"question?"

Looking at him, it seemed like he was talking about business, discussing his career.

Charlize said she couldn't help but feel sad.

At first she had distant hopes, otherwise she would not have taken such a big risk. In his imagination, there were no more than three possibilities: top, middle and bottom.

Of course, above, Abel married her in the first place.

That's the most unlikely thing to happen, but what if it were?

Charlize is ready to try her luck.

In , Abel now looks like this. Charlize thinks he will improve his treatment while having more restrictions on himself.

Then let you have a baby, then give you a sum of money to send you away.

Charlize is very worried about this, she is not worried that Abel will not have children.

Because in his agreement with Abel and in his daily work.

Charlize has long evaluated this man as a guy who values ​​family affection and the people around him very much. Unlike ordinary rich men, he values ​​his family very much.

It looks more like South America and Asia than America.

Because around the world, people in these two regions highly value family.

Based on this assessment, Charlize determined that there was a high possibility of letting him give birth to this child.

This made Charlize agree to take a big risk to achieve what she had been thinking about for more than two months. Now the choice Abel gave her was exactly what Charlize was thinking about.

Charlize thought.

It has been a very good choice for me.

She did not refuse but bowed her head and said softly:

"I choose to follow your arrangements. I can go wherever you want."

"But I think after giving birth, I can still be his mother and can continue acting."

At that time, Charlize looked very humble. When he said these words, his tone was full of emotion.

There are some real emotions on her part, but mostly she's trying to show off her acting skills.

She knew that was what this man loved the most.

"For what"

"Of course you will be your child's mother. No one can change that."

Charlize was very happy to hear this. Mother of a child named Smith?

Is there any better guarantee than this?

She was very happy.

But on the outside, she of course always seems a little sad.

Then Charlize heard him sigh again and repeat:

"In terms of acting, everything will be fine when the child turns one year old. But I will impose more restrictions on you, can you accept it?

"Alright." Charlize was filled with joy because she got what she wanted.

Except for the most extravagant things.

She was extremely happy but on the outside she was still very depressed:

"I'll listen to you. I'll listen to you. Just don't sink me to the bottom of the Atlantic."

"For what"

She heard him sigh again, then walked over and hugged her. Charlize immediately hugged him, then leaned her head on his broad shoulder, crying softly.

Very quickly, she realized Abel was hugging her tightly.

This makes Charlize happy, grateful for making the right bet!

This ticket of a lifetime, it seems I have grasped it very well!

After the two broke up, Abel raised his hand to wipe the tears from her beautiful face.

"That's it, you raise the child here first. I'll make the arrangements and you can choose later. It doesn't matter whether you want to stay in the US or go abroad to raise your children."

"Hmm," Charlize replied softly.

"You should rest first. Sleep for a while." Abel gently placed Charlize on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

Then he kissed her forehead and turned to leave.

Walking out of the door, Abel closed the door and leaned against the door to think quietly.

In front of him, stood two bodyguard captains.

Edward and Donnie.

Both of them knew that the boss was in a bad mood, so they didn't dare to disturb him.

Another thing. As captains of the male and female rock security guards, both also have certain responsibilities.

Edward and Donnie, now have the young, handsome faces of their bosses.

Explore micro-expressive emotions such as entanglement, anger, and anticipation.

None of them dared to speak, even their own breathing was controlled and became very gentle.

After a long time. Maybe ten minutes.

Abel finally sighed.

He finally spoke.

"Donnie, organize your staff and protect Charlize well."

Abel said:

"In addition, competent teams and medical teams related to pregnant women and newborns also need to be established."

"Alright." Donnie said quickly.

"Eward. Please notify the Rock Security Women's Special Protection Unit."

Abel looked at Edward:

"What happened to Charlize is no exception. If this kind of dereliction of duty happens again. Then... let them all go to Alaska to grow potatoes."

"I hate anything that gets out of hand!"

Edward's heart sank. This was the first time he saw such an angry and serious expression on his boss's face.

Edward hastily said:

"Okay, and I also promise that something like this will never happen again!"

"That would be great. Let's go, I miss New York a little."

Abel closed his eyes, opened them again a few seconds later, and walked forward as he spoke.

Edward quickly followed.

Donnie will stay and leave after following his boss's instructions.

March 8, 2001.

Abel eventually returned to New York. For now, New York's coldest period is over.

The Big Apple is starting to warm up and things are starting to recover.

Like last time, he was a bit depressed when he returned to New York.

Abel is depressed and he will make more people depressed.

So on the second day he returned to New York. Smith Capital enters its fourth state of refuge.

This time it was the fourth and third floors of the entire Smith Building, all of which were only accessible.

The 1st and 2nd floors are open for business and operating normally.

Therefore, the number of merchants this time increased from over a hundred people last time to a total of two hundred and eighty people.

Two hundred and eighty merchants, as of today, before the end of the shelter. will not be allowed to leave midway.

Even if they get sick midway, treatment will take place at their place.

Compared to the previous state of refuge.

The already experienced Smith Capital now has a better understanding of its operations.

Floors 3 and 4, both floors are electronically fenced. In addition to physical and manual transportation, other means of communication with the outside world have been disrupted.

In addition, there are many restrictions on network routes and telephone routes that are subject to internal monitoring.

This is used in transactions.

And when this order was issued, the selected traders were very enthusiastic.

Wall Street used the term "Smith Safe House."

On Wall Street, everyone said that if Smith Capital opened a haven then the State. So everyone should be careful.

Thanks to Smith Capital, it can start cutting people up again!

This is for companies other than Smith Capital.

But for Smith Capital's own employees, especially the selected traders.

So that's a good thing to celebrate.

In the trading room on the third floor. Before work begins.

A former employee of Smith Capital.

Enthusiastically boasted to the three other traders around him, who had just joined him and were still on probation.

".Hello everyone. Do you want to know, in the latest security status. How much money did we make?

What he said also became legendary among ordinary Wall Street workers.

It is said that the trader is said to be able to work at the Smith Capital hideout at all times, after completing the complete state of the house.

Each trader enjoys a bonus of over 100,000 USD.

They say that as long as you've participated in Smith's hideout three times, it's just a reward.

It's worth their salary for two or three years!

Hearing the veteran boast, a newcomer praised him and said:

"Williams, how many people are there? We're all curious, we're all colleagues now, tell us."

Looking at the impatient looks of several people, Williams stretched out three fingers.

"Thirty thousand dollars?" The new person who spoke up was very surprised.

Don't think a $30,000 bonus is considered small on Wall Street.

Rather the opposite.

The income of the average worker on Wall Street is actually not that high. Among America's 20 highest-paying professions, the average Wall Street practitioner doesn't even make the top 20.

In 20th place are judges and magistrates, with an average annual income of about $140,000.

The average Wall Street analyst or trader usually has a starting point of around $50,000 when they enter Wall Street.

This is the annual salary!

After 10 years, the salary will reach its maximum. Typically, the base salary is US$100,000, plus a bonus of US$20,000-30,000, and the total annual income is around US$120,000. He was an old-fashioned Wall Street guy.

At that time, Smith Capital was recruiting its first staff.

Most of them are Wall Street workers at this income level.

Smith Capital is growing during this time with 596 employees.

There are at least 400 people, before entering the company, they also existed at this level. On Wall Street.

Overall, revenue growth is fastest in the first five years, increasing at a rate of 10 to 15% per year. If you change jobs every two years, your salary could double in five or six years.

This is the income of ordinary and excellent employees on Wall Street.

Of course. This class is the lowest class on Wall Street, only slightly higher than interns.

The real appeal and income of Wall Street lies mainly with the middle and upper classes.

Above mid and senior levels, they are essentially excellent investment managers.

Like the group of more than 20,000 "vice presidents" at Goldman Sachs, the group with the best performance.

Their annual income can reach about 500,000 to 5 million US dollars. The reason the gap is so large is because this class no longer relies on wages to make money.

They rely on bonuses and commissions.

The above was the real upper echelon of Wall Street.

These managers, big and small, even the company's presidents and CEOs.

In 2000, the No. 1 earner on Wall Street was Richard Fuld. This Wall Street bulldog received an annual salary, bonus and dividends of $45 million at Lehman Brothers last year.

This high level of income is essentially the best among American earners.

During this period, it can be compared to the salaries of the highest earners on Wall Street.

Last year, Nasdaq failed to beat previous Internet leaders.

Well, except for the middle class. The income of most average Wall Street employees does not exceed an annual income of $200,000.

People who can get above average bonuses are not executives above MD (director, manager).

This is a famous trader, famous brand analyst or fund manager.

Their annual red envelopes easily amount to millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollars.

And these people make up less than 2% of all people on Wall Street. In fact, ordinary Wall Street employees.

If calculated in hours, it is not much better than experts in other fields.

Plus the enormous pressure of working on Wall Street.

These rewards are simply not worth the effort.

Not to mention the chaotic working environment on Wall Street, ordinary employees' bonuses cannot be guaranteed. Unfortunately, the financial tsunami can also reduce wages.

Bonuses sometimes turn into severance pay when the economy declines.

So, Smith Capital, when in a safe position, can grant a trader a bonus worth 30,000 USD.

This is Wall Street's unique generosity.

But Williams snorted: "How can it be so low!" At that time I was the group leader and there were ten people in our group!

"We are responsible for controlling 50 accounts, 5 accounts for each person!

"I have three hundred thousand dollars! Three hundred thousand! Look, everyone else has one hundred fifty thousand, one hundred fifty thousand!"

Hearing the number Williams said, the new recruits were all a bit surprised. The newcomer continued to speak stupidly and asked:

"Only in a safe state, responsible for carrying out the investment manager's orders, buying and selling mechanically and conditionally, can you then make this much money?"

"Yes. Just listen to CEO Mellon's orders and trade according to the quantity conditions set by her to close the positions." Williams said:

"Director Mellon is directly under the command of our king! Our King Smith, he is our real brain, and we are his tools, his software in the market capital!"

After receiving confirmation from Williams, several new traders looked at each other with disappointment.

This. Isn't this something new graduate finance interns can do?

How many days does it take to get such a scary reward? It is even an exaggeration to say that any American with a high school diploma or higher has a normal IQ.

After learning the operation for about half a month, it is estimated that they can carry out combat orders at this level.

Never use subjective energy and do not judge or analyze yourself.

It's really not difficult.

Just like that, is there such an outrageous reward? The new arrivals are a bit numb.

But at the same time, everyone is excited and difficult to control.

Because of this incomparable happiness, it is now theirs.

As long as they can follow the instructions above, doesn't that mean they also have a chance to receive such a generous bonus?

Not yet officially joining the market are 280 traders from Smith Capital. Already excited about possible generous bonuses.

Fourth floor, in Abel's office.

The left and right walls here are also arranged like screen walls, covered with liquid crystal screens that have been released for a long time.

These LCD screens display real-time product information from various financial markets around the world.

David Mellon and another VP of investments, a newly hired white man named Jason, were waiting here. Both were happy.

David Mellon rejoices at another important decision.

Jason was excited because for the first time he got to see how "The King", "Finance Moses" and "Wolf of Wall Street" really worked.

Abel himself stood before the fence.

If you pay attention to his eyes right now. You'll notice that his focus is primarily on gold and silver, two precious metals futures contracts.

What Abel is looking at is London Gold, which he has invested in many times.

2001 now.

Currently, London gold is at 235.55.

This position also represents an ounce of gold that costs $235.55. Been in the industry for over a year.

Even though he has no talent, Abel still understands the market well.

Now, in the daily chart of London gold, we can see that the 20 moving average and the 0 moving average have formed a golden cross.

And London Gold's daily K line fluctuates in the big box of 500 points.

There are 5 moving averages, 10 moving averages and 20 moving averages intertwined in this box!

They are closely related to each other. London's daily golden K-line also moves between these three moving averages. London gold has recently risen sharply and at times fallen sharply, which has something to do with this.

But even if he can understand it, if he wants to rely on this knowledge to make transactions.

Abel felt he would have to endure a lot.

With this knowledge, everyone can understand these candlestick charts. There may be tens of millions of people on this planet.

But out of so many people, there may not even be a thousand who can benefit from it.

Abel felt like he was not one of those thousands.

Luckily, he is a talented person.

His talent tells him that London Gold is preparing for a mini bull market. London Gold refers to a trading product offered by the London International Financial Futures Exchange.

This is a 400-ounce gold brick with 99.5% purity stored in underground vaults of the City of London.

London Gold is not a type of gold but a means of margin trading in precious metals.

Named after its origins in London, it has a history of over 200 years in the international market. This is the most popular gold investment method on the market and is sought after by many investors and speculators. Due to its representativeness, London Gold is essentially a representation of spot gold in precious metal futures contracts.

Gold prices on this market are listed based on international market conditions and have global circulation.

Every day around the world, gold trading volume reaches trillions of dollars.

The stakes are so large that no corporation or organization can artificially manipulate such a huge market.

Unless the great powers disappear and there are only one or two great powers with such capabilities. Talent tells Abel that now is the opportunity to build a long position in London Gold.

It will increase sharply in the short term, then decrease in May and June.

Usually it stays that way due to a weak economy.

But this year there will be a super international black swan.

The black swan will cause global funds to create risk aversion. At that point, this will fuel a gold bull market.

Abel's approach is simple. What he wants is to make a fortune in this bull market wave.

Continue fundraising and prepare for the arrival of the big bull market!

In this mini bull market, there were only about 300 points of profit.

The amount you can earn depends on the number of long positions Smith Capital can establish at around 235.55. Thinking of this, King Smith Capital directly gave the order.

Unlimited position opening before 240:00 and delayed deletion after 240:00.

After a week, the market no longer matters.

Then start closing your positions before the end of the month.

Of course, he did not specify when he would close the position later. When the time ends, he will naturally let David begin closing the position.
