Chapter 256 The duality of people

"I'm sorry, Mr. Soros! To redeem my shares in Quantum is not because I have lost trust in the Quantum Fund. It is actually because of my current situation that I urgently need capital turnover, so..."

Giving money to others and asking them to help you make money, and then unjustly taking the money and running away. This approach made Carter feel a little authentic when he did it for the first time. When facing Soros, he also felt a little confused.

So ashamed...

"It's okay, I understand. I have approved the redemption application, and the money will be credited to your account within three days."

Compared to the emotionally complex Carter, George Soros was much more open-minded. However, despite being open-minded, Carter could also notice that there was still a trace of haggardness on his face.

Soros seems to have not recovered from the incident of Jim running away...

"Also, may I ask? How is Jim doing lately?"

The questions that followed quickly confirmed Carter's conjecture. But this question...

Thinking about the ridiculous experience he and Jim had on a monthly package in Hawaii, Carter couldn't help but picture Jim Rogers wearing flowery underpants, holding a small water gun, swaying between two...oh no, it should be four girls now.

Picture...

"Well, this is generally stable. However, it does occasionally feel a little sad! Jim has told me several times that he left just because the two of you have different ideas. It has no impact on our friendship. You are still the best for each other.

friends!"

For 20,000 US dollars a month, the average day is 666.66666, which is really a lot!

He paid for it himself, and the result was all enjoyed by Jim, the old man. Thinking of this, Carter felt a little emo, and the expression of this little emo made Soros feel a trace of sincere comfort.

Putting on a smile again, Soros stepped forward and patted Carter on the shoulder:

"Yes, we are still friends, we are also friends! Regarding your recent situation, I heard Zhu Li say that raising 300 million U.S. dollars is indeed not easy. Come on! If you are still short in the end, you can call me!"

"Thank you! Mr. Soros, I won't disturb you for now. The main reason for coming here this time is..."

"It's okay, I understand. Come, I'll see you off!"

"You weren't laughed at, were you?"

Downstairs, Julian leaned against the car door. When he saw Carter coming out, he smiled and made a joke.

He felt that Carter's trip was simply unnecessary. Investment in the fund was basically a business relationship between you and me. I thought you were good, so I invested in you, but now I want to use the money, or I think you are no longer good and choose to withdraw the investment.

It's obviously something that should be done, so there's no need to go out of your way to say hello to Soros, or even express an apology or something. You've done nothing wrong, so why do you think so and make yourself uncomfortable?

"What a joke! How is that possible? You don't know that Soros was so moved when he saw me and went to say hello to him!"

After following Julian into the car, Carter responded to Julian's joke in an exaggerated way. But behind the exaggeration, Carter thought of Soros's expression just now and Jim's... somewhat heartless look, and he couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.

"Julie, do you think people have two sides?"

"How to say it?"

Feeling Carter's emotional changes, Julian, who was driving, was a little stunned. One second he was laughing and joking, and the next second he suddenly emo'd?! He didn't change his face that fast, right?!

"Didn't I accompany Jim on vacation in Hawaii some time ago? After almost half a month, I almost didn't feel any sad emotions from him. Look at Soros again. From May to now, his brows...

It hasn’t loosened up yet, and I even saw some gray hairs on the temples..."

"I just feel that people like Soros are willing to do whatever it takes to make money, regardless of so-called goodwill or reputation. I just feel that he should be the kind of person who is ruthless and devilish."

Thinking of Soros's nickname in the future, and the terrifying influence that countries will have to change their minds after the successful attack on the pound. To be honest, even though the relationship with Soros seems to be good now, Carter has always been a little scared in his heart.

, I have always been a little wary of this old guy.

No matter what the matter, I basically don't want to tell him everything. I always feel that that aquiline nose might stab me in the back at some point...

"On the other hand, Jim is kind and kind, and he is very friendly and friendly. He also attaches great importance to goodwill and other things. He seems to be a passionate and emotional person, the kind of person who can empathize with others.

But now, you say, their friendship of more than ten years has suddenly separated. Soros has not recovered yet, but Jim is eating and drinking and having fun!"

"It feels very disconnected. If the performances of these two people were reversed, I think it would be much more reasonable..."

After listening to Carter's story, Julian's expression became a lot lower. After muttering "the two sides of man", he suddenly stopped the car on the side of the road.

Under Carter's surprised and confused eyes, Julian suddenly asked an almost completely irrelevant question:

"Do you still remember when I lent you $500,000 to speculate in silver?"

"Remember! What does this have to do with the present..."

Carter was confused and hadn't spoken yet, only to hear Julian suddenly say:

"In addition to silver, you have also speculated in gold. Didn't you realize something was wrong?"

"Problem? There is..."

Carter's words suddenly stopped...

Recall the past carefully, when I speculated in gold, I invested a total of 3.2 million US dollars. The price of gold rose from 534 US dollars per ounce to 718 US dollars per ounce, an increase of only 34.45%, but my profit reached more than 30 million US dollars, more than 1000%

income!

This is the charm of futures leverage! Magic!

But while thinking of this, Carter came back to his senses...

It seems that silver at the time had futures in it! Moreover, the increase in the price of silver at that time was more than 100%!

If I remember correctly, the silver price fluctuated from about 11 US dollars to a range of 23-24 US dollars per ounce before closing the position. If it is also a futures contract, then the increase in gold price is only 34.45%.

If you can get a rate of return of more than 1,000%, and the silver price has increased by more than 100%, then your actual rate of return...

Carter didn't know how to calculate the specific amount. After all, he had not participated in the specific operation of speculating in silver. But even without specific calculations, Carter realized at this time that the return Julian gave him at that time was far lower than the real amount.

The rewards you can get from speculating in silver futures...

"You...didn't speculate in futures at that time?"

Scenes of the past acquaintance and contact with Julian flashed before Carter's eyes. The laughter, the intimate past, made Carter unable to believe that the other party had embezzled his money.

I am unwilling to accept this reality in my heart. If even my most trusted agent, no, is now a partner. If even Julian Robertson is cheating on me, then...

But looking back on this journey, Carter also feels that he seems to have gone a little too smoothly. Excluding the so-called power of heaven (which the author praises), this kind of situation where things go too smoothly is often an extremely abnormal situation.

And as the saying goes, when something goes wrong, there must be a monster!
