Yang Xing was happy and proud on the gambling ship, and his mood was completely different from the international speculators gathered in Hong Kong. Two heavyweights of hedge funds, among which Robertson of Tiger Fund, came to Hong Kong again to command. Although Soros of Quantum Fund was closely watching the local financial market in Russia, his heart was mostly focused on this life-and-death battle with the Hong Kong SAR government. Their covetousness of the Hong Kong dollar had never disappeared, although Yang Xing delayed them several times during this period.

When the offensive was launched, but after both the Korean won and the Japanese yen were defeated, the international hot money they led fell into a situation of "drawing their swords and looking at each other's confusion", and found that besides the two big guys China and India could not be defeated for the time being, the only one Hong Kong family was left to escape their ravages. How could this be considered a complete victory? So in 1998, they lobbed other hedge funds to launch hunting operations in Hong Kong without telling Yang Xing, who has always been pro-government, which also led to a break in the three-person alliance and eventually parted ways.

The strike against the Hong Kong dollar by hedge funds showed signs from October last year. At that time, the Taiwan government abandoned the New Taiwan dollar and international hot money began to short the Hong Kong dollar in a crazy manner, causing severe turmoil in the Hong Kong foreign exchange market, which once lowered the spot exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar by more than 7.75:1, reaching a new low of 7.8:1. In this case, the Hong Kong SAR government rose to defend the Hong Kong dollar. On the one hand, it sold the US dollar in the market through foreign exchange funds; on the other hand, it announced a rate hike, and the best interest rate increased from 8.75% to 9.5%. In addition, the Hong Kong government toughly cracked down on Hong Kong multinational banks' private short-selling Hong Kong dollar contracts, while reducing the supply of Hong Kong dollar money, and Yang Xing successfully directed Robertson's attention to Indonesia. Various measures achieved obvious results in the foreign exchange market. The Hong Kong dollar exchange rate immediately rebounded to a high of 7.5:1, and maintained a relatively stable situation for a period of time.

However, the side effects of interest rate hikes and reducing the supply of Hong Kong dollar gradually emerged over time, causing a sharp decline in Hong Kong stock market and property market. The Hang Seng Index of Hong Kong stocks fell below 8,000 points at one point, half of the peak of 16,000 points! It was not Yang Xing who took advantage of his rebirth to rack his brains to help the SAR government turn the tide in a timely manner, and finally push the Hang Seng Index back to around 10,000 points. I am afraid that Hong Kong will also follow the footsteps of neighboring countries and its economic vitality will be severely damaged.

International hot money, which has not done its best for several attacks, has not yet stopped, and has started to hit the Hong Kong dollar on a large scale since June this year. Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund took the lead in shorting the Hong Kong dollar. They first purchased a large amount of forward US dollars from banks to sell forward Hong Kong dollars, pushing up interbank lending interest in exchange for US dollars to earn interest. On the other hand, they also sold Hang Seng Index futures and stock spots to lower the stock price. The former will cause interest rates to rise sharply, causing the stock market to fall, and thus make profits in the futures market; at the same time, once the Hong Kong dollar falls, they can also make profits in the foreign exchange market at the same time. No wonder they clamored that Hong Kong is a super "cash machine" to take them with them. By mid-July, the Hang Seng Index fell below 8,000 points, and fell to 7,600 points at a low of 7,600 points, almost a few hundred points every day.

As the situation worsened sharply, the SAR government, which had been patient for a long time, finally decided to take action and use the three sovereign funds under its name to enter the market to protect the market. Several major families in Hong Kong who had been in contact with Yang Xing and many helpers from private funds such as Yang Xing also took the opportunity to enter the market to buy. Under the pressure of strong buying funds, international hot money, mainly short-selling, was in panic all day long because they sold the Hong Kong stock market and foreign exchange futures index throughout June and July. It was at the end of their strength. Unexpectedly, they had to hold on when they died. So they all pulled funds from all over the world to Hong Kong, the big dealer, to fight to the death with the SAR government, a big dealer!

After three days, it was a dead end. Both sides were preparing for battle. The SAR government did not expect to solve all international speculators in one go. At least it would take a tug-of-war to see the final victory or defeat. After the start of the Gambling King Competition, the entire stock market war gradually subsided. I just don’t know how many undercurrents there are below! Yang Xing was not interested in returning to Hong Kong to observe in person. Although the war was fierce, he had done everything he should do. This time, a large number of alliances were brought to support through the Gambling King Competition. The subsequent changes in the battle were left to his subordinates and partners, but he believed that he would be the one who harvested the fruits of victory.

However, the Gambling King Competition was a small episode. The competition was about to end in the evening. Finally, representatives from Macau, the United States, Europe and several domestic families invited gambling masters to enter the semi-finals of the competition. The warm atmosphere in the casino reached the highest point. The boats of gamblers put down their affairs and focused on the battle of the dragon and tigers with a gambling of millions of dollars per game. At this moment, Gu He suddenly stood up and proposed to cheer up the competition. He wanted to challenge Yang Xing, one of the organizers before the finals, and the whole audience was in an uproar.

Yang Xing didn't expect that Miss Gu, who had repeatedly opposed him, challenged him in public. She thought that she was still dissatisfied with the anger in Nanjing. In the audience, Gu He challenged the dealer. Although he was not very lawful, the gamblers on the scene were very interested. Yang Xing was not good at sacrificing everyone's face. After thinking about it, he decided to accept the challenge. Before the scene, he joked and said in a lively atmosphere: "This Miss Gu has a good attitude. Another initiator of this competition, Mr. He, was respected as the gambling king. You

If you don’t go to him to find me, the unknown man, because I heard that he never gambled at his own casino in his life. Mr. He said that no matter whether he wins or loses in the casino, he will make sure to make a profit and never loses. Why do you have to gamble?" The son of Stanley Ho, who was smiling and nodded. Everyone in Hong Kong and Macao knew about Stanley Ho’s statement. He was respected as the king of gambling because of his ability to open a casino. However, he never gambles. He likes beauties more than betting on betting. He has married a lot of wives. He was an idol worshipped by Yang Xing at the time!

After Yang Xing and Gu He sat at the gambling table, Yang Xing asked her: "Ms. Gu is determined to get face from me. Today I will satisfy your wish. What do you want to be a guest?" Gu He gritted his lips tightly, thought for a while and said: "I know there are many strange people around you. I have watched Hong Kong gambling movies these days, and most of the gambling techniques are movie stunts. Since we want everyone to be happy, we will use real masters to play those tricks and let our subordinates perform.

What's it?" She waved to several subordinates and pointed at three of them and said, "We bet on roulette, dice are like poker, how about winning two games in three games?" Yang Xing saw that her subordinates were so proud and confident, and looked like several trainers. He knew that Gu He wanted to use martial arts masters to steal dragons and phoenixes. As the organizer of the competition, if he lost three games in a row before the final, it would not be good to show his face. He thought about it and asked Wu Gangqiang and others to nod to agree to Gu He's challenge.

Although it was an impromptu gambling game, the two of them still played a bet of up to one million Hong Kong dollars. Everyone was very excited and they were even more excited about the final of the Gambling King. The first bet was a traditional French roulette, but the rules were slightly different. Both sides threw their small balls into the rapidly rotating roulette. Whoever stopped in the digit grid and the number of chips that were first bet was the closest, who would win. This tests the gambler's reaction and eyesight, and it was a great test for their throwing techniques and judgment. Wu Gangqiang and Gu He's subordinates did not dare to neglect them, and stood in front of the roulette with their own small white balls waiting for the order.

"Start" As the female dealer made a clear call, the two of them threw the balls in their hands at the same time. The two white balls jumped happily in the rotating roulette. Everyone onlookers held their breath and surrounded them quietly. Wu Gangqiang chose the number 26 of black, and the young man was very skilled and brave enough to choose the number 0 of green. If he wins, he will have to double the compensation! These two numbers are close together. The roulette is slowly rotating, and everyone feels nervous and their hearts are raised to their throats.

At first, two small white balls were falling towards the green No. 0 position, and it was seen whose landing point was closest to the area chosen by the two. A shout of "Black 26!" and "No. 0!" broke out on the scene. The small ball under Gu He was about to fall at the "0" position, but was suddenly hit by Wu Gangqiang's small ball that arrived later. Not only did it fall into 0 position, but it was knocked out of the roulette. Wu Gangqiang's small ball was falling on the black No. 26 position, which was applauded.

Gu He was depressed. Wu Gangqiang's Tai Chi power had entered the realm of transformation. He could not only play Tai Chi stone balls weighing thousands of pounds, but also send a light ball to a predetermined position and bounce the opponent away. Its strength is hard and soft and can do whatever he wants. He has reached the level of a master. Gu He's eyes and hand strength are very accurate, but it is still a lot worse than Wu Gangqiang's light and heavy moves, so he had to accept it. Gu He was not discouraged. He had known that Yang Xing's subordinates had crept tigers and hidden dragons, so he was not depressed by the small setbacks. It was still a school

The next subordinate started to shake dice. The dice was about listening, hand strength and judgment. This time, Qin Tian played on the side of Yang Xing, but unexpectedly, the opponent was a master of acrobatics who shake dice. Qin Tian shook six dices and made six points upwards, which was originally a steady victory but not a loss, but the opponent actually shook all the six dices in the dice cup into the highest level of the legendary dice--"one pillar to the sky". In the calculation, there was only one point, and Yang Xing had to admit defeat.

The two bets were a turnaround, and the most exquisite thing was not just gambling skills, but the level of kung fu and acrobatics, which made the audience feel excited, and it was a bit like a Hong Kong gambling movie. It was just that the two sides tied and could only see the result of the final card game. At this time, Yang Xing suddenly proposed to invite Gu He to come to the stage to fight him personally, which disrupted Gu He's arrangements, but everyone was very satisfied with the wonderful performances of the two of them just now, and naturally looked forward to the decisive battle between the kings on both sides. After a stir, Gu He had to bite the bullet and sit at the gambling table with Yang Xing. The two of them were shopping.

The gambling method used in quantity is believed to use the most common "stud" bet in Hong Kong gambling movies. This game means that both parties draw two cards first, one as the trump card, and the other is shown. Both parties predict the opponent's trump card based on the flaunt card and consider whether to play. They can continuously raise the bet to make the opponent give up or follow up until each person draws five cards and then show the trump card size. This seems simple, but it involves fraud hiding, interpretation of people's hearts, etc., which is very exciting. Both people are familiar with this kind of game. If they choose unanimously, they will decide the winner.
