William calculated in his heart. Now, it was just over 5000 points. In 5 days, on March 7th, it would reach its highest point in history, 5048 points. With a deposit rate of 353%, he could buy 9039 shares. A one point increase or decrease would be 2.23 million USD. With a deposit of 49.56 million, he could buy more than 20 points.
William immediately decided, "You are afraid that my margin will suddenly be lost. I can sign a contract with you. As long as the 49.56 million in the margin is lost to 90%, you can force me to liquidate my account.
The 10% is to give you time to liquidate, so you won't have any losses. Besides, I have 350 million in my account. Even if it rises or falls by 100 or 200 points, I won't go bankrupt. At most, I'll lose half.
Mr. Grace, if this doesn't make you make up your mind, then I can only change to the bank. "
Jon Grace thought for a long time before saying to William, "Mr. Devonshire, it's almost noon. How about I ask Felix to accompany you for lunch? When you come back at 1 o 'clock, I think we can determine the deposit rate for you."
"Okay, this is my first time in Switzerland. I can only eat authentic Swiss food with a local bully. Mr. Grace, I'll wait for your good news."
Felix was worthy of being an exclusive account manager. He took William to taste the delicious food. Zurich veal with baked potato strips, grilled cheese, and seafood chowder tasted really good.
At 1 o 'clock in the afternoon, Jon Grace called on time. "Mr. Devonshire, the board of directors has approved your request. A 3% margin rate. If the margin loss exceeds 90%, you will liquidate your position. Congratulations, Mr. Devonshire."
William knew in his heart that the National Bank would agree to his request because there would be no loss for them. The national index was now so high. In the eyes of many now, the national index could rise to 6000 points. The National Bank thought that William was bullish.
William would not tell the National Bank his specific operation. He said to Jon Grace, "When can my contract be arranged?"
Jon Grace said, "Now, Mr. Devonshire. We can do it now."
"Ok, I'll go to the bank in a bit and meet with Mr. Grace."
"See you later, Mr. Devonshire. Bye-bye!"
William hung up and said to Felix, "Felix, I need the best law firm in Switzerland to meet me at the bank. One hundred thousand dollars. Meet me at the bank in half an hour. Can you do it, Felix?"
"No problem. One hundred thousand USD. I promise I can do it." Felix apologized to William and got up to make a call.
William waited in his seat for five minutes before Felix walked in and said to William, "Mr. Devonshire, it's done. We can go to the bank now."
"OK, let's go."
Twenty minutes later, William returned to the bank. The lawyers were already waiting for him. William shook hands with the Swiss lawyers and got to know each other.
After shaking hands with Jon Grace, the negotiations began. William spent three hours under the interpretation of the lawyers. After several amendments, the contract was finally signed before five o 'clock in the afternoon.
Then William said to Jon Grace, "Grace, I need the National Bank to prepare a professional team of 10 people for me. I want it tonight."
"No problem, Mr. Devonshire. I can give you the best team right now," Jon Grice said immediately. "Felix will prepare everything for you. Our fee is a 5% return rate, or $100,000 a day as an employment fee."
William thought for a moment and said, "If it's a loss, I'll pay them one hundred thousand dollars a day. If it's a profit, I'll pay them one hundred thousand dollars a day. I'll still give them one percent of the profit, but I want them to sign the strictest confidentiality agreement."
William turned to the lawyer and said, "Can I ask for a clause in the confidentiality agreement that will put me in jail for more than 20 years if I leak the information, Mr. Simon?"
Simon thought for a moment and said, "If the leak of the information will cause you a lot of loss, of course. But if it's not a big loss of money, but only a loss of reputation, I can't be sure. It depends on the court's judgment on the damage to your reputation. There's a big boundary here.
But if you're willing to pay the team a large signing fee when they sign the contract, then I guarantee that if anyone leaks the information, that person will be in jail for 20 years. "
"How much should I pay, Mr. Simon?" William asked.
"One million Swiss francs per person, about one million dollars will do."
William said to Jon Grace, "Grace, can you do that?"
"Of course, Mr. Devonshire. Even if you don't pay the money, I can guarantee that our people at the National Bank will never leak the information," Jon Grace promised.
William didn't believe the words of these bankers. These guys were vampires. None of them were good. Even if they were good in life, none of them were good when it came to money. Good people couldn't be successful bankers.
William waited for an hour and shook hands with the 10-person team. Then, Simon explained William's requirements to the 10 people. After they signed the contract, William would pay one million dollars to each person.
Compared to hiring them for one hundred thousand dollars a day, the 10 people signed the contract without any hesitation. As for the requirement that they would go to jail for 20 years if they leaked the information, they didn't take it seriously.
By the time William and the newly formed team signed the contract, it was already seven o 'clock in the evening. William and Felix took Simon to a three-star Michelin restaurant and had a good dinner.
After dinner, William signed a check for one hundred thousand dollars to Simon. After receiving the check, Simon happily said to William, "Thank you, Mr. Devonshire.
If you have any trouble or problem in Switzerland, you can come to me. Our law firm is the best in Switzerland. We can help you with anything as long as you can afford it. "
When William heard that Simon could help him with anything as long as he could afford it, he complained in his heart, Isn't that nonsense?
"Thank you. Good night, Mr. Simon. I'll look for you if I have any problems. Bye bye." William shook hands with Simon and his team and said goodbye. As for William's team, they were preparing in a secret room in the bank.
As soon as William entered the VIP room, he saw the team resting on the sofa and lounge chairs with their eyes closed. He didn't disturb them and found a chair to sit down. After drinking a glass of whiskey, William's phone rang.
William quickly answered the phone and said, "Give me ten seconds." Then he walked out of the VIP room and said to the phone in the corridor, "Hello, who is this?"
