Chapter 274: NBA Draft Night Fright(1/3)
Chapter 274 NBA Draft Night Terror·Fake
At this moment, Abel didn't know that a young black man was "targeting" him.
He was talking to Buffett and Bloomberg.
On his left is Buffett, on his right is Bloomberg.
Compared to Buffett, whom ordinary Americans know.
In the United States at this time, Bloomberg's fame was still limited to the upper class society, financial circles, and media circles.
Most ordinary Americans don't even know there is a person like Bloomberg.
For Bloomberg to truly become famous, it will have to wait until he becomes the mayor of New York and firmly becomes one of the top ten richest people in the United States.
So at this time, Bloomberg was naturally ignored by the two black men, Jay-Z and Kanye West.
At this time, Bloomberg was regarded as an "inconsequential little old man" next to Abel Smith and Buffett.
At this moment, Bloomberg was watching the conversation between Abel and Buffett with a wry smile.
"You lied to me, kid. You're a liar!" Buffett said a little depressed.
The old man came here because he heard that several high-ranking people were with Abel tonight.
Buffett thought that this was another big move that Abel was going to make, so he called a group of friends in advance to discuss it.
Buffett, who was curious about this and wanted to join, made a special trip here.
Unexpectedly, there was no big move. Among the big names that Abel said, there was only one Bloomberg.
The key is that Bloomberg was willing to come, and he followed Buffett because he knew he would come.
Buffett was a little angry because of this, but it was difficult for this anger to really come from Abel.
The stock god can only complain and curse a few words in a low voice.
"Hehe~" Abel laughed after listening to Buffett's complaint, "I didn't lie to you. Isn't Michael here now? As for Robert and the others, they went home halfway because of something. You can't allow others to go home, right?
"
Seeing him like this, Buffett couldn't be more serious.
Who would have thought that the giant tycoon in front of him, who once caused Wall Street to lose tens of billions of dollars, would have such a childish side?
Fortunately, thinking about his age, Buffett felt a little better.
Even younger than Buffett's son, what can Buffett say?
Buffett simply ignored Abel and decided to stay for a while before leaving.
What Bloomberg was watching was this slightly funny scene.
The owner of Bloomberg found it very interesting.
As for Mr. President, who has great power in the NBA, David Stern was smiling beside him at this time.
Stern also didn't expect that Abel used "cheating" to get Buffett, the stock god.
Even Buffett and Bloomberg dared to lie. David Stern felt that Abel was the only one who dared to do this.
Others may dare to cheat, but whether they can bear the consequences of cheating these two is another matter.
At this time, Abel found David Stern.
"David, I said it all, I will definitely make the NBA and your efforts worthwhile. Look, didn't I bring Buffett and Bloomberg here?"
"I even used deception to help the NBA and you. I made these two angry. My sacrifice was too great. If the NBA doesn't compensate me, it will be my turn to be angry."
What else can David Stern say.
The president of the alliance, of course, could only smile bitterly at this moment.
Just like Buffett thought.
What David Stern was thinking at this time was also, "Who would have thought that Abe Smith would have such a childish side?"
David Stern whispered:
"Mr. Smith, the Rockets have already won the No. 1 pick. They are so lucky that even God is helping the Rockets. I don't think they need our help."
"Okay." Abel smiled: "You are the God of the NBA. You are helping the Rockets, which is good."
David Stern:
Buffett and Bloomberg watch Abel tease David Stern.
The old man felt a little more comfortable now.
Fortunately, the draft will begin soon, and David Stern will host it as president.
David Stern was relieved, finally freed from Abel's "torture".
Abel didn't really let Buffett look at the boring so-called NBA draft in the eyes of his class.
Take advantage of this environment with no one around.
He was discussing things with Buffett and Bloomberg that had nothing to do with today's NBA draft.
"I saw in the news that Soros went to the UK. Didn't it mean that the UK has not allowed him to enter the country?" Abel asked the stock god curiously.
"There is no such thing," Buffett said:
"It's just spreading rumors. Some British people said that if Soros goes to the UK, he will be greeted with rotten eggs."
Bloomberg confirmed this as well.
"The British government has not announced such an executive order."
Abel nodded, and after thinking about it, he felt that this was normal.
That's England.
It is still the same Britain that experienced two imperial killers, Churchill and Thatcher.
Now in the 21st century, they have almost become the yes-men of their former little brother.
Such a British government dares to show its teeth to Americans like Soros, who to some extent symbolize the will of Wall Street?
Do you think it’s 1901 now?
It’s already 2001 in the 21st century!
The glory of the British Empire has long since faded away.
There is only one giant shit-stirring stick left on the British Isles.
All they have left is the Queen and Finance.
All other power comes from the conjugation of father and son, America.
Under such circumstances, how is it possible to show off one's teeth to American Brahmins or Kshatriyas?
If it were another European country that still had some sovereignty, it might be possible to issue such an order.
But if it's from the UK, it's most likely impossible.
"This time Soros is targeting the Norwegian krone." Buffett discussed with Abel in a low voice, "Aside from them, you may be the one who makes the most profit."
Abel smiled back at this.
It can be said that this time Abel and Soros are in a certain collusion.
Soros is heading for the Kingdom of Norway.
The main purpose is to cut leeks and start the dollar tide.
He wants to plunder the wealth of the Kingdom of Norway just like he plundered the Southeast Asian countries and the Kingdom of Han.
It is the eighth largest oil exporter in the world and the third largest natural gas exporter in the world.
Just these two titles will make those oily people unable to wipe off their saliva.
As for Abel, he just used the Norwegian krone as the stage to gamble. He played a zero-sum gambling game with a large number of international institutions and speculators.
Soros is engaged in cash foreign exchange, and his goal is to completely collapse the Norwegian krone.
Abel was playing a foreign exchange futures betting contract, and his goal was also to short the Norwegian krone.
Both sides want different things.
One is the wealth of the Kingdom of Norway.
One is betting against the player's money on the plate.
But if both sides want to win, or want to win more, they must let the Norwegian krone collapse.
That's why Buffett said that one of the biggest beneficiaries of Soros's demise was Abel.
This is also what Abel's talent told him, why USD/NOK can go long.
"There is still danger," Abel said, "but I stand on top of George's head. I see higher than him and farther than him. He may fail, but I will never fail."
Buffett was silent.
