Pretty Woman 82: Becoming a Tycoon by Shorting Hong Kong Island

[Multiple heroines] [No doormat protagonist] [No angst for the protagonist] [All the celebrities are his] In September 1982, Lu Ming woke up in a public housing estate on Hong Kong Island with nothing but half a pack of crushed Red Double Happiness cigarettes. Fortunately, his mind held the script for the next forty years of world history. “Mr. Chen, your Carrian Group is about to go under.” “The Brits want to pull out? They can leave the land behind. I'll take it all.” “Luohu in Shenzhen is still farmland? I'm investing in this project.” “Soros, you won't be able to sink your teeth into the Hong Kong dollar.” “It's only fair that I get back the money the Old Buddha lost, right?” From shorting Carrian to defending the Hong Kong dollar, from fighting a bloody battle in Tokyo's real estate market to triggering the US subprime mortgage crisis, Lu Ming rose to the top by walking over the corpses of every financial storm. Ten years later, he was the richest man in the world, with a fortune of eighty billion dollars. Lu Ming had thought his biggest problem after being reborn would be that no one understood his showboating. Only then did he realize his biggest problem was that his bed at home wasn't big enough. Sigh, life is exhausting. Next time, I won't be reborn.
