After Divorce, I Can Hear the Future Chapter 137: Major International Incident

"Brexit referendum, US-British exchange rates..."

Dostic tranquility, international excitent, almost daily there are blockbuster news items.

Recently, the world's headlines have been focused on the Old England's election.

The United States churns up storms around the world, only killing, not burying, leaving the EU to deal with all the ssed-up situations.

mber country Old England, once the Sun Never Sets Empire, when its ancestors road the seas, Arica was but a little brother.

Now in decline, not only does it have to take in refugees for the EU but also bears the responsibility for economic aid to other mber countries.

Over the years, paying both in money and effort, without reaping any benefits, has already caused strong dissatisfaction among the people of Old England.

Therefore, two years ago, Pri Minister David Caron first proposed a Brexit referendum, and just yesterday, he declared that if he could be reelected this term, he would hold the referendum as soon as possible.

The Wall Street Journal calls it the most suspenseful election in decades, and the result will determine the future of a nation.

Soros claims that if David Caron is reelected, British Pounds would plumt by 20%, while Goldman Sachs predicts a decline of 11%-15%.

It can be said that as long as David Caron is reelected, Old England will continue to push forward with the Brexit plan, and the foreign exchange market will also kick up enormous waves.

The current exchange rate of British Pounds to US Dollar is 1.5002,

Compared to last month, it has risen by 5.45%.

This also represents that international speculators do not have confidence in David Caron's reelection, nor do they believe that the United Kingdom dares to implent the Brexit plan.

Lu Liang pondered and sniffed out the opportunity for profit.

Fluctuations in foreign exchange are related to international political situations, just like the ti when Ma Ao, the first African-Arican president, was elected, like a depth charge, directly flipping the foreign exchange market at the ti.

That event was also hailed as the biggest black swan event of the past ten years, only to be surpassed when Lehman Brothers went bankrupt.

Whether David Caron is reelected or not, whether the United Kingdom leaves the EU or not, it has nothing to do with Lu Liang, but he hopes for the reelection and Brexit.

A dog biting a man isn't news, but a man biting a dog is, the sudden black swan event is what allows for significant profit from little investnt.

In the afternoon, Lu Liang contacted Sun Jiyong from the foreign exchange bureau and exchanged the remaining 1.7 billion RMB in his A-share account for US Dollars.

He only left an account with less than 2 million available funds, as well as an account holding 5.72 million shares of BYD stock.

As of the morning closing, BYD's latest stock price was 71.24 yuan, valuing the account at 407 million yuan.

Lu Liang then withdrew the funds from his US stocks account, bringing the available funds to 49.46 million US Dollars.

Having prepared the funds, he stayed in the office, waiting for the dawn to co.

"Panda is looking for funding at the end of the month, got any ideas?"

Wang Xiaocong's voice ca through the headset, as a shareholder, with financing imminent, Lu Liang was forced to live stream.

He normally played gas quietly, as long as no one talked to him, usually only the sound of a lighter could be heard.

He also couldn't understand why hundreds of thousands of people would watch; according to Little Wang, they were all real, without any fake numbers.

"Don't understand, no ideas, just deal with it yourself."

For the A-round financing, Panda was valued between 90 to 130 million US Dollars, whether it would be the upper limit or the lower limit depended on the capital market's receptiveness.

Life is hard, Little Wang sighed, "Can't you just care a little?"

If Lu Liang were willing to give him the first broadcast rights for the Crown Princess Consort, a valuation of 130 million US Dollars would be certain.

"I'm trying to save you, not harm you."

Lu Liang didn't give him any sympathy,

How long has B-Station been established, how long has Panda been established?

Live streaming self-produced variety show, it's already a serious over-achievent, otherwise he wouldn't have borrowed fifty million.

If they were to touch on the video streaming sector, they probably couldn't last until the B-round financing before their funding chain would collapse.

Wang Xiaocong laughed awkwardly a few tis and changed the subject, "How about I show you our self-produced variety show?"

"Let's take a look then." Lu Liang wanted to refuse, but he couldn't resist the tens of thousands of comnts flooding the live chat.

He wasn't curious, yet he beca curious.

The filming location was in Star City of Funan, where a castle was rented, a million spent on renovations, and renad Goddess Castle.

Ten girls of different styles were sitting on the sofa chatting, seemingly taking their promotional photos for the show.

Wang Xiaocong took the opportunity to advertise, "It premieres on November 15th, using a live streaming format throughout the show, don't forget to tune in if you're interested."

When Little Wang approached with the selfie stick, the ten female contestants all stood up to greet him.

Wang Xiaocong smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, you have several hundred thousand fans watching the livestream. Why don't you all introduce yourselves?"

"Hello everyone, Mr. Lu, and netizens, my na is Tan Yanyan..."

Everyone looked surprised, they quickly saluted the cara, and introduced themselves and their talents.

Lu Liang couldn't help laughing and crying—Little Wang's persistence in trying to hitch a ride on his popularity never died.

He smiled and said, "Hello everyone, once the program starts, I'll send each of you ten Buddha Jumps Wall."

Little Wang was such a player, allowing each contestant to bring only three items from their luggage to survive the 49 days of livestreaming.

Whether it was clothing or daily necessities, they could only purchase them at the supermarket with points exchanged from fans' gifts.

Participants with high points could afford to eat and drink well, while those without would rely maintain a basic livelihood. It was a reality version of Goddess Castle.

This innovative program, even before going live, had already garnered the anticipation of millions. If Little Wang hadn't thought about creating Eastern Disneyland and had focused solely on livestreaming and variety shows, maybe Panda could have really made a na for itself.

"Thank you, Mr. Lu." The female contestants bead with joy; one Buddha Jumps Wall was worth a thousand RMB, and a thousand points.

Starting off with ten thousand points each at least assured that their lives wouldn't be too difficult for the next 49 days.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, I want so too~~"

Li Manli, rushed over, smiling, suddenly appearing in front of the cara: "Hello, Mr. Wang, hello, netizens."

She was wearing a Lolita-style princess dress, with a new hairstyle, and her twin ponytails dyed wine red and curled.

Once she appeared, the hundreds of thousands in the livestreaming room all shouted:

"Honey, Honey, I love you~"

Beside her was another girl, holding a stabilizer, seeming like she was also livestreaming.

Lu Liang couldn't help but smile as he found Li Xiaong's livestream titled "Goddess Begins Broadcasting in Three Days~"

He checked his account and still had several hundred thousand cat coins. He selected the most expensive Buddha Jumps Wall and clicked on it a dozen tis.

"Mr. Lu is so generous~ Thank you, Mr. Lu~"

Li Manli grinned from ear to ear and bowed in thanks.

Her twin curled ponytails were like slack springs, bouncing out and coiling back, lively and cute.

The rest of the contestants looked on with envy; perhaps this was the relaxed aura that ca with wealth. At least, they didn't dare to actively and blatantly ask Mr. Lu for gifts.

Because they cared, so they were concerned.

They were also worried that doing so could affect their image, leaving the audience with a bad impression of being money-minded.

But Li Xiaong was different; everyone knew her family was wealthy. She was young and drove sports cars, lived in a mansion, definitely not short of money.

For her, livestreaming was just a hobby, so her attitude toward gifts was indifferent.

"Let's take you around," said Wang Xiaocong with a smile that saw through it all, yet he didn't expose anything.

Li Xiaong was 19, Lu Liang was 30, not out of the question to be godfather and daughter, rounding off to a similar wealthy background.

"You guys have fun on your own, I've got things to do."

With that, Lu Liang quickly ended the broadcast, and the viewers, already accustod to this, dispersed.

The majority of the fans were college students, not for anything special, but mainly to rub off so of the financial luck. Who knows who said it, "The world's wealth is like a stone, of which Lu Liang alone occupies eight scoops."

For today's college students, to avoid failing exams, they are willing to believe in Conan, let alone watching a livestream for a stroke of financial luck.

The principle was for believers, all things are possible; for non-believers, not so.

Lu Liang went to the tea station, lit a cigarette, sipped his tea, and admired Modu's city nightscape, waiting for the early morning.

[November 13, GBP/USD exchange rate 1.4352]

"A drop of 650 points? And a re-election victory?"

Lu Liang was surprised; the 13th was the election vote count day, which would determine if David Caron would continue in office.

The general public was pessimistic about Caron's chances, as his re-election would an the continuation, and likely success, of Brexit.

DaCaron's campaign pledge was that if re-elected, he would push for a fast-track Brexit referendum and strive to exit the EU the following year.

"To leave or not, what do I care." Lu Liang smirked. He liked political 'black swans' because they ant profit opportunities.

Whether Brexit would happen was still uncertain, as politics is full of pointless maneuvers, and a sudden change of heart isn't unheard of.

But with Caron's reelection now a done deal, that was less of a question.
