The camera turns to Edgar, who said in English: "We give Mr. Lu Xiao a high score because he still insists on the way of kindness despite the disappointment of human nature."
Hao Sijia raised her eyebrows and looked at Lu Xiao. Are the judges sure they were talking about the stupid and poisonous Lu Xiao in front of her
Lu Ze, who was watching, also wanted to ask this question.
Don't talk about other people, Lu Xiao himself is stunned, what the heck
Edgar said: "In the process of putting our ideals into practice, all of us have been disappointed in the world countless times. Isabel was involved in the medical rescue of the poor and found that patients deliberately messed up their bodies and took the medicines they got for free. Hoard it, sell it to others for a profit, and trade the sick body for medicine again.
Odele has helped countless women in domestic violence in his life, but at least half of them have insulted Odele more than once, or asked Odele to help his husband change his personality and behavior and return to that man's side, Until death, or intolerable.
Mr. Lu Xiao was also disappointed with human nature, and publicly threw money to challenge all those who abused him, but he still insisted on charity in the end. We think this kind of persistence is the most valuable in life. "
Lu Ze: "..."
Lu Xiao: "…"
Hao Sijia: "…"
Edgar, although you are over sixty years old, no, although you don't understand Chinese, can you find a reliable translator.
Is he, Lu Xiao, sticking to it
Hao Sijia was so angry and funny, she was so angry that she lost her temper.
Zhu Rong: Why doesn't he have such good shit luck
Edgar continued: "Abraham's family is second only to Gaston Lu's wealthy family and is well versed in investing, so several reviewers in the investment community gave high marks because money must be spent and cannot be used for investment. Mr. Abraham contacted the local charitable foundation, donated in full, and set up an investment plan together to ensure that the follow-up income can be continuously and equally invested in charity. We appreciate this.
Ms. Hao Sijia also made the same fund investment choice, but based on Ms. Hao Sijia's female identity, Hao Sijia women put all the money into the attention of women and children.
Mr. Abraham equally considered the identities and backgrounds of our twelve judges and made a very comprehensive decision, but we appreciate people who can pay close attention to their own interests, because caring for this kind of thing starts from oneself, you can't take it from yourself. To understand others from perspective and life experience, then the behavior is correct, but it will not be meticulous and gentle.
Ms. Hao Sijia started from herself and listed the use of the fund in 136 detailed detailed guides. This is her caring for women and children from her own perspective. We are very moved by her dedication, so her score above Mr. Abraham. "
"Thank you Mr. Edgar for your interpretation." Mr. Wang Delu said, looking at the others, "Do you have any comments now?"
Silence, still silence.
Mr. Wang Delu said: "Since everyone has no opinion, now let's go to Gaston Lu's last test for everyone, investing."
After Wang Delu finished speaking, everyone got another check.
The last few players in the second round withdrew by themselves, and there are still eight players left.
Wang Delu said: "It's still 20 million, the competition investment. The rules this time are still very simple, all the rules of the investment circle can be used, whoever has the highest income in the end, whoever has the highest points, but your investment consulting and decision-making, not allowed Consult any of your relatives, friends or acquaintances. Of course, even if you make a mistake, we will give you a chance to come back.
20 million is the principal for you. If you lose, and you feel that yours has the potential to turn around, then you can ask anyone for help, it can be family, friends, or even borrow money from Mr. Gaston Lu. Of course, you have to repay the borrowed money, whether you earn it or not, so please make your own decision based on your investment ability and risk tolerance. The time limit is one week, and now in seven days is the final date. "
This time, it's not spending money, but making real money.
There is no hidden information, the comparison is personal ability.
Short-term investment is like gambling.
The more crazy, the higher the reward, and the worse the death may be.
Hao Sijia quickly calculated in her mind that short-term investment returns could not be long-term companies or the like. The biggest possibilities were stocks, securities, gold, silver, futures, and Bitcoin.
These are all tests of a person's luck, vision and data analysis and computing ability.
Really, fun game.
Obviously everyone is aware of the problem.
Even Lu Xiao and Zhu Rong knew where the main battlefield was concentrated this time.
Lu Xiao and Zhu Rong quickly began to search for various investment channels and began to register online.
The two of them have registered almost all the investment projects that can be registered, and only then did they start to supplement their financial knowledge.
Lu Xiao went directly to the largest investment consulting company to ask what investment would bring money the fastest.
The investment advisor did not answer this question directly, and Lu Xiao repeatedly asked, and finally came to the conclusion - gold.
One hundred times leverage, the biggest change.
A single project, easier to focus on.
Lu Xiao immediately started searching for gold knowledge greedily. He only had one week left, and he is now the third place. As long as he wins this level, he will inherit a trillion-dollar fortune.
At that time, he will find out those who mock him one by one, and eat them alive.
Throw money at them in the face and tell these people how stupid they are.
Lu Xiao exerted his concentration in the third year of the college entrance examination, and read books about gold investment frantically. He read it for 20 hours without any rest, and the books he had read were thick.
And Zhu Rong bought Lu Xiao's investment advisor and stared at him.
In fact, he originally wanted to buy Abraham's investment advisor. Abraham's father was second only to Lu Ze on the wealth list. He received elite education since he was a child, and he was the most likely to win among the venture capital investments he had been infiltrating since childhood.
However, such people are more careful about their wallets.
The investment adviser he sought would not be bought in anyway.
The market that is easiest to double is the one with the highest risk. After Lu Xiao opened an account, he frequently made several transactions, one million, and he lost money in ten minutes.
He couldn't believe it, even if it was gambling, it should be sweet to him, right
Even if you guess the size, he doesn't carry it like that, right
The gold market is nothing more than two options: up and down. He can guess wrong with a 50% probability
The investment advisor on the side: "… "
It's normal, how can a novice come up and operate it seven or eight times in ten minutes
You don't lose, who loses
The investment consultant Quan said: "Mr. Lu, the difference between the book and the actual operation is 108,000 miles. I suggest you invest a small amount first, and start with 0.1 hands."
Lu Xiao pouted his lips disdainfully, he always felt that every time he touched the door to making money, it was just a little bit.
Moreover, he has to compete with elites all over the world for investment income, how much does he earn in 0.1 hand
Lu Xiao didn't listen to the persuasion, and rushed in for another million. This was very lucky for him, and it doubled in less than an hour.
Lu Xiao felt that he had gotten the hang of it, so he directly charged five million in.
Here, Lu Xiao was having a great time playing up and down, while Zhu Rong followed him to invest in his heart and was almost scared.
On the other hand, Sijia Hao was not in a hurry to invest, but started to collect information first. Her investment experience is limited.
The gold market is very profitable, but it is also the most uncontrollable market.
She still conservatively chose the market she was most familiar with, futures trading.
The most important thing in futures trading is to judge the direction of the market based on limited public information, which she is good at.
Gaston Lu said they could move all the money they could.
Then there is no doubt that this game is in the best interest for Abraham. He was born in a financial family on Wall Street and is best at venture capital.
At the age of six, his father took him to the New York Stock Exchange with his big brother.
Abraham is currently ranked No. 1 and is the most likely to inherit Gaston Lu's assets last.
The wealth of the world's richest man is inherited by the second son of the world's second richest man. This is not good news for the world, and will form a monopoly on the economy.
In order to win the game, Abraham will inevitably mobilize a large amount of funds from the family. The principal is not only 20 million, but it may be 200 million, 2 billion, 20 billion, then even if it is a 10% return, he can still Beyond everyone present.
Can she take 20 million, or take out her family's only assets of several billion yuan to compete with Abraham
Then he must win the game.
Hao Scarlett tapped her fingers on the table, so she needed more capital.
Hao Sijia smiled slightly, called Joseph, and asked Joseph out.
Joseph was the one with the highest ranking in the whole game, but the least competitive person.
His father once won the Pulitzer Prize in the press. At that time, there were three Federal Reserve officials and many people in the financial industry in the live news paper of the party that Big Joseph attended.
The upper echelons of the political and business circles in country m are all connected.
In the secret private room of the cafe, Sijia Hao asked, "Joseph, you are an honest person with a strong sense of social responsibility. You don't want to see the world economy controlled by a certain consortium, right?"
"What do you mean?" Joseph's delicate eyebrows wrinkled.
"Abraham's family already has oil, investment banking, Internet, transportation and other aspects of the industry." Hao Sijia said: "Gaston Lu's assets are concentrated in aviation, entertainment, news communication, and the Internet and investment banking fields that overlap with Abraham. If they With the combination of the two, I believe that as a future professional journalist, you have a sharper sense of smell than me, what changes will happen to the world economic structure and how dangerous it is."
Hao Sijia said: "Joseph, I know you don't know much about investing, so you need me if you don't want to see such terrible things happen, and I also need your help."
"what can I do for you?"
"Money, I need a lot of money to win Abraham." Scarlett Hao said confidently and in control, "You can get me that money, right?"
Joseph was silent, he understood what Scarlett Hao meant.
"But, I can choose other people, why must it be you?"
"Because if I win in the end, I can promise to country m, promise more benefits, such as I will move more factories from Asia back to country m. You know, Joseph, it happened not long ago in Washington A demonstration because of unemployment, you need me."
Joseph thought for a moment and said, "I'll discuss it with my father."
Two days later, Sijia Hao got a reply from Joseph, and contacted the person she wanted to contact, and finally got the principal of one billion US dollars.
With such a principal in the financial market, it can almost reach the strength of a big bookmaker that affects the trend.
However, the other party also asked Hao Sijia to promise that if she did not become Gaston Lu's heir, she must return it in full.
Compared with the capacity of the futures market that Hao Sijia chose, coupled with her personal ability, there is almost no possibility of loss, so Hao Sijia agreed to this request without hesitation.
The battlefield is in full swing, and the investment returns of Abraham and Scarlett continue to hit new highs.
On the other hand, Lu Xiao and Zhu Rong were bleak.
Only three days, 20 million, Lu Xiaoquan lost.
Zhu Rong, who is with Lu Xiao, is no exception.
"No! Impossible!"
Lu Xiao hadn't slept for three days and two nights. He frantically smashed everything that could be smashed in front of him.
The beast in his chest is screaming, no! He can't admit defeat.
He carefully recalled each of his operations in the past three days.
Obviously, he has earned fifteen million in the end.
His total capital is 35 million, but in the last hour, the market suddenly turned sharply higher and then turned sharply down. He thought it was a correction, but he did not expect that it would drop so much within ten seconds, and then more and more, more and more. , he panicked, lost all the principal, and was forced to liquidate the position.
In fact, if he did not make the last transaction at that time.
If he could have shot earlier at that time, it would not have been like this.
The gold market is a place very similar to gambling. No one knows if the next second will make you lose everything you have earned.
In this casino, it seems as if a hand is pulling you, telling you the next move, and you will be able to get back everything you lost!
Lu Xiaogai's eyes were red.
He was unwilling to face the scolding of millions of people after his failure, and he couldn't bear the future of returning home in despair without getting anything.
He rushed back to the venue, saw Lu Ze who had been waiting, signed a loan contract of 20 million with him, got a new check, and rushed into the market again without fear.
Zhu Rong didn't touch the market at all from start to finish, he just followed Lu Xiao, and he wouldn't be impulsive if he didn't gamble.
Anyway, he has always been the last one, and he simply conceded defeat.
Lu Xiao rushed in with 20 million. The gold market is a market without oligarchs and no one can control it.
For this market, 20 million is like a pebble thrown into the sea.
The more impulsive the more the loss.
When the seven days were up, when Lu Xiao came to his senses, he had already borrowed 60 million from Lu Ze.
And he currently only has a balance of about 4.23 million left in his hand.
There is no doubt that he lost this battle completely.
When Lu Xiao sat down in the meeting hall and listened to Mr. Wang Delu's announcement of the results, he stood up from his chair in shock.
He had already lost the battle before he even entered the battlefield.
In addition to his eight people, Zhu Rong and Joseph conceded defeat, only he and the other lost nothing and were heavily in debt. Among the remaining four people, including Hao Scarlett and Abraham, they all paid from their own families.
Abraham asked for a billion dollars in principal from his father, and Scarlett also raised a billion.
The two men ended up with almost equal payoffs.
How can I ask, there is a genius in the world who can spend 20 million RMB in a week but surpass the income brought by others' billion-dollar principal
So the game was not fair from the beginning.
Lu Xiao roared: "This game is not fair, their family has money, of course we deserve to win!"
Mr. Wang Delu said indifferently: "There is no absolute fairness in this world. When you are full, others are hungry, and it is not fair. Hao Sijia also did not draw money from her own family, nor did she borrow money from Mr. Gaston Lu. Enough money has been raised and you're yelling at unfairness here, why don't you reflect on yourself."
"Fuck it, it's an unfair game, not fair at all!"
"This is not a competition. Mr. Gaston Lu has to pass these three tests to select the most suitable heir. The heir needs advanced endurance, keen insight, superb investment ability, etc. There is no fair statement in itself."
Hao Sijia sneered: "If you think it's unfair, then you have 12 judges in the second round who don't understand Chinese. There is a huge difference in understanding between the two language systems. Why didn't you say it at that time?"
Lu Xiao pouted, "I think you guys have already made an internal decision, right? I'm not playing anymore."
After speaking, Lu Xiao turned around and left.
Mr. Wang Delu said calmly behind him: "The debt of 60 million will be dealt with by a special person and you, Mr. Lu."
When Lu Xiao heard this, his legs softened and he almost fell to the ground.
Lu Xiao looked calm on the outside, but was actually panicked inside, and ran away in a hurry as soon as he went out.
Then Lu Xiao's live broadcast room went black.
The others, who felt that there was no possibility of winning, also left.
In the end, Abraham, Scarlett, Joseph, Smith and Rudolph were left.
The five people entered one by one to chat with Lu Ze alone.
The first one who took the initiative to chat with Lu Ze was Joseph. He was a reporter and had many questions to ask Lu Ze.
His mysterious fortune history, his true thoughts on this successor selection.
Will it keep its promise
The purpose of each level.
Then there is Abraham.
Lu Ze asked, "What if I said that if you want to inherit my property, you must sever your relationship with your father's family and only be my son?"
Abraham was silent for a long time and asked, "In the years to come, can I choose to have business cooperation with my father?"
"If it is a necessary business cooperation."
"Then I can." Abraham said, "My father's property will be inherited by my brother, and my father will support me in agreeing to your request."
"Then what is money to you?"
"A kind of proof." Abraham said, "the more I have of it, the more I can prove myself. Mr. Gaston Lu, I grew up surrounded by money. Money is very important to me, but it is not So important, but having it gives us satisfaction."
The last one is Hao Scarlett.
Lu Ze asked, "Is money important to you?"
'"important."
"What if I say that if you want to inherit my property, you must sever your relationship with your father's family and only be my daughter?"
"Mr. Gaston Lu, what answer do you want to hear?"
Hao Sijia said, "Dear sir, can I ask you a question that has been bothering me for a long time?"
Lu Ze nodded.
"Lu Xiao and Zhu Rong, in terms of selection criteria, do not have the ability to be selected, why let them participate in these three meaningless competitions?"
Scarlett Hao asked, "Are you punishing them? Punishing them for abandoning you for money."
Lu Ze: "I punish them, not because they abandoned me for money."
"So is it because of disappointment?" Hao Sijia looked straight at Lu Ze's slightly sad eyes, "I punished them because of disappointment? Then why are you disappointed?"
"Little girl, you have too many questions."
"I'm sorry." Hao Sijia said, "I have thoroughly shown myself to you in these three games, so I don't think I need to answer your question."
"Little girl, you are very good at talking." Lu Ze smiled lightly, thinking about the question from a tricky angle, "But you must give me a definite answer."
"Yes." Hao Sijia said, "No matter who you ask is the answer. You also said that you didn't punish them because they abandoned you for money, so I think it doesn't matter what the answer to this question is, you What I want to see is still simply our ability, observation, understanding, judgment, am I right?"
"Have to say, some people deserve everything she wins. You keep your focus and your judgment until the very end and you're the winner."
This sentence is even a sealed conclusion.
He obviously knew the result, but when he heard that Lu Ze ended everything so easily, Hao Sijia still had a strong and incredible feeling.
"Mr. Gaston Lu?"
"Don't get me wrong, I have no plans to abdicate for the time being. I will give you five years to start taking the heir's professional course and take over everything in my hands."
"good."
It all ended naturally, without any reversal.
But no one would have thought that Lu Ze would really hand over the country he laid down to others.
And Lu Xiao and Zhu Rong didn't even think that after they returned home, Zhu's father and Zhu's mother had already moved away.
Not only left, but even blocked all their contact information.
Zhu's father and Zhu's mother left one million for each of Lu Xiao and Zhu Rong, which is the last family affection.
They have been watching the live broadcast, from the initial anticipation and cheer, to the later disappointment and pain, to hatred, to numbness, and then to leave disappointed.
Two sons, both of them only have money in their hearts, but no love.
But what does one million mean to Lu Xiao
He lost his reputation and was scolded by people all over the country and all over the world.
He also has 60 million in arrears.
Debt collectors come quickly.
Lu Xiaodong hides in Tibet, but so many people in the world have watched his live broadcast.
How arrogant it was to throw money at the beginning, and how bloody it is to be scolded for not having money now.
All his life, he can only escape, can only live in a dark corner, and cannot come out to meet people.
With Lu Xiao in front of him, Zhu Rong's life was better. After all, he has no debts yet, but like Lu Xiao, he has been unable to go back to school and work normally.
Their performance was terrible.
Once the words ungrateful, white-eyed, ruthless and shameless are attached to them, they will never be pulled off.
Moreover, they have enjoyed the pleasure of spending a lot of money, how can they endure ordinary life.
Day and night, those happy and unrestrained days tormented them like bone-encrusted maggots.
How comfortable it used to be, how painful it is now.
One day, decades later, the two met on the same desolate street.
White-haired and alone, the two of them looked at each other as if they were looking in a mirror, equally embarrassed.
Lu Ze fulfilled his promise. Five years later, he handed over everything to Hao Sijia, and then took the initiative to leave this world. He did not have much attachment to this world.
Back in the system space, 616 deducted Bengren's 2,000 points as usual, and sent him to the next world.
