I'm back in 1990

Chapter 813: Transporting Ammunition

After leaving the CRI Pharmaceutical R&D Center in Tai Po, the convoy headed directly to the Hong Kong headquarters of the Avenue Group in Central.

The temperature in Hong Kong at the end of November was completely different from that in Shanghai. It was still warm here. In the temperature- and humidity-controlled office of the Dadao Group's Hong Kong headquarters, Huang Xiaochuan told Cao Charlie the real purpose of his trip.

"Charlie, I'm giving you twenty days to transfer three billion dollars to Dark Night Capital's designated account. Remember, you absolutely cannot let anyone trace the source of the funds."

Charlie Cho has done this kind of thing many times, so he is very experienced.

"Understood, Mr. Huang! I know what to do."

Charlie Cho's approach involved using multiple layers of nesting and a series of complex operations through the independent accounts of shell offshore companies in the Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands. This allowed the $3 billion to be broken down into smaller amounts, circulated around the world, and then transferred in batches to Dark Night Capital's designated accounts.

Charlie Cho guessed that something big must be happening in the United States, otherwise the boss wouldn't have come to Hong Kong in person to explain these things to him. However, he strictly adhered to his professional ethics, neither inquiring nor asking questions, and simply carried out the boss's instructions.

The Dadao Group has plenty of funds, but they can't just give them directly to Zhang Sui. After all, transferring such a huge sum of money to Dark Night Capital so openly would be telling everyone that Huang Xiaochuan is up to something big. There are already enough people watching him, so the way they give him the money needs to be carefully considered.

Zhang Sui is indeed under a lot of pressure. Huang Xiaochuan's job is to provide a continuous stream of margin for Zhang Sui to short the market, ensuring that she is not crushed by the ever-rising stock market before the market turns around.

After handing the matter over to Cao Charlie, he immediately left the office to arrange work, while Huang Xiaochuan made an encrypted call to Zhang Sui, who was far away in the United States.

What's market sentiment like?

Zhang Sui calmly replied, "It's still so enthusiastic. The Nasdaq and S&P are still hitting new highs, especially the financial sector. As of today, Lehman Brothers' stock price has risen by 8% in a week. Moreover, many analysts believe that the Federal Reserve will not raise interest rates for a considerable period of time, and may even consider lowering interest rates in order to maintain economic growth. Therefore, most people are optimistic about the market."

"You should understand one thing: when everyone starts to go crazy, that's exactly when the turning point is coming. What you need to do is be even more greedy at that time."

"Boss! My funds are already very tight."

"I know. I've arranged for Charlie Cao to supply you with a steady stream of bullets. The first batch is estimated to be thirty boxes. I'll also help you find some spare cash to replenish your ammunition depot."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Sui felt much relieved. She was under immense pressure, and her actions had become so disruptive that she was unable to use higher leverage.

Before the call ended, Huang Xiaochuan reminded Zhang Sui: "Once the ammunition arrives, you should increase your short positions at key points in advance. Be sure to do it discreetly. If you're going to do it, do it thoroughly and deliver a fatal blow."

"Understood!"

The two then hung up the phone, ending the brief call.

After making that call, Huang Xiaochuan dialed another number, which was also brief.

Huang Xiaochuan stayed in Hong Kong for two days. Before leaving, he instructed Cao Charlie: "Find a way to spread the word that Dadao Group is optimistic about the global market, especially the Asian pharmaceutical technology and consumer upgrade sectors. They will be investing heavily in this area in the future."

Charlie Cho immediately understood. This was simply using a new hot topic to attract the attention of the media and related parties, creating as many smokescreens as possible for the subsequent flow of funds.

"Okay, I'll arrange a financial media interview right away."

After takeoff, the plane did not turn eastward, but flew straight south to its destination, Singapore.

Yes, Huang Xiaochuan is going to Singapore to meet Zhang Yun and borrow some funds from her Xue Group to provide to Zhang Sui. This is called pursuing multiple avenues simultaneously. The advantage is that it can provide Zhang Sui with sufficient funds as soon as possible, but the disadvantage is that with Zhang Yun's shrewdness, she will definitely guess some of the reasons and may ask for a share of the profits.

However, Huang Xiaochuan would rather trust Zhang Yun and share the benefits with her than risk asking others for help. After all, Zhang Yun was the mother of his two sons, and she might ask for some benefits, which he could give her.

Two hours later, Huang Xiaochuan's private plane landed smoothly at Singapore Changi Airport.

As soon as he stepped out of the cabin, a wave of hot and humid air hit him, which made Huang Xiaochuan feel a little uncomfortable for a moment.

After completing the immigration procedures, Huang Xiaochuan saw Zhang Yun at the arrivals area, dressed in a long dress. She still loved to dress exquisitely, but it has to be said that Zhang Yun's figure has become more and more graceful and voluptuous.

When the two faced each other, Zhang Yun took the initiative to hug Huang Xiaochuan, which left Huang Xiaochuan unsure whether to dodge or not. Just as he was wondering what to do, Zhang Yun had already let go of him.

Gao Song, Li Huan, and the others all chose to be selectively blind; they didn't see anything that had just happened.

"Let's go! Yavin and Luca haven't slept well for two nights since they knew you were coming. If they didn't have to go to school, they would definitely come to the airport to pick you up."

Huang Xiaochuan frankly admitted, "I miss them very much too!"

After getting in the car, Zhang Yun told the driver to go straight home, and also said to Huang Xiaochuan, "Stay home! That way you can spend more time with your son. I know you won't be staying for more than a few days."

This time, Huang Xiaochuan did not object, which made it easier to discuss the matter with Zhang Yun.

The black Bentley quickly drove into a private residence near the botanical garden. This was Zhang Yun's home, where she, her mother Xue Huilan, and their twin sons had lived after leaving the Xue family's old house.

Zhang Yun's maternal grandfather, Xue Xiangsheng, has been dead for more than two years. Her uncle, Xue Bingkang, went overseas after being disinherited and has not been heard from since. Zhang Yun is too lazy to look for him. However, a foundation transfers money to Xue Bingkang's account on time every month.

The mansion's exterior is in a typical Southeast Asian style, full of exotic charm.

Knowing that Huang Xiaochuan was coming, Zhang Yun's mother, Xue Huilan, was already waiting at the door.

After all, she is an elder, and the proper respect should be shown. After getting out of the car, Huang Xiaochuan greeted Xue Huilan.

"Hello, Auntie! Long time no see! You look great!"

"Thank you for your kind words, please come inside! It's too hot outside!" Xue Huilan said with a smile, inviting Huang Xiaochuan into the house.

After entering the house, Huang Xiaochuan looked around but did not see his two twin sons.

Zhang Yun naturally knew he was looking for his two sons, so she said, "They won't be back at noon. School ends at three in the afternoon. You can come with me to pick them up then. I think they'll be very happy."

Huang Xiaochuan nodded in agreement.
