Chapter 272 Harvard Club

"Harvard Club?"

Zheng Jianguo glanced suspiciously at Bruce next to him. He had some guesses about the identity of this man, and the Skeleton Club, a student club with a long history at Yale, flashed in his mind.

Zheng Jianguo has lived at Harvard University for more than a year. Although most of his attention is on studying, he still heard about the clubs formed by many students. The most representative of them is the Poslane Club. .

Of course, the reason why Zheng Jianguo has a deep memory of this Posslian club is because someone in the school compares it with the Skeleton Club of Yale University, the Ivy Club of Princeton University, the Blington Club of Oxford University, and the Apostle Club of Cambridge. In the minds of Harvard students, it belongs to the world's top college student club.

Since it is a club formed by Harvard college students, it will naturally be open to students, and its joining criteria are not public. According to Zheng Jianguo's privately heard, 10 people are found out of students over 2 years old each year, and they are sent to join the club. invite.

But when Zheng Jianguo heard that, his first year of study had not ended, so he didn't know if he was recommended.

Even if he received an invitation during that period of study, he would not go. After all, what would a student be in front of a Nobel Prize winner?

The top student union, in the eyes of Zheng Jianguo’s identity as a rebirth, is also an interest class for students who are not doing business, and tossing out under the situation of idle pain——

In his previous life, Zheng Jianguo had never heard of the Skull and Bones and Freemasonry in the street stall literature, even the Rothschild who controlled the world during the currency war.

This is also the reason why Zheng Jianguo almost asked Yang Na to buy Lafite Chateau at the beginning, otherwise he would not want to buy Lafite Chateau from the Rothschild family if he was cautious about the persecuted delusion. .

Therefore, Zheng Jianguo was not interested in the club formed by the students. Until now, after hearing it from Augustus, what came to his mind was just a car brand rider in his memory. Yes, of course what he asked was not this: "That Poslane club? The pig head?"

"Zheng, your tone will be uncomfortable for others to hear--"

Bruce shrugged and said, then looked at the Augustus people next to him, and then turned around and said: "Of course this Harvard club is not the Poslain club. This is a private house on West 44th Street in New York. club.

The members are all outstanding graduates of Harvard University, so the only requirement for joining is to get a Harvard University diploma with excellent evaluation."

"Then what is the purpose of this club?"

Zheng Jianguo was a little moved, but he just remembered the evaluation that Augustus gave him earlier. He was also a little afraid to spend a long time with such "smart" people, and he would be seen as the essence of his donkey shit: "No After joining, you are not allowed to quit, you must be loyal to the club—"

"Hehe, no~"

Augustus suddenly smiled, looking at Zheng Jianguo's many immature faces, and said: "These are the main characteristics of secret societies with ulterior motives.

Compared with the Poslain Club and several other clubs for students, you should actually be able to tell from the address of the club.

Otherwise, the address of Harvard University is in Boston, a few hundred kilometers away. If it is aimed at recruiting Harvard students, it is similar to the Poslain Club and several other clubs.

In fact, this is a club that faces outstanding graduates. Members must be graduates of Harvard University and must be excellent enough to be recognized by more than ten members before receiving invitations from the club.

As for the club, it is mainly to provide members with opportunities to communicate and communicate, usually from time to time in opera houses, concert halls, art galleries, museums, and even animal sanctuaries, national parks, and golf courses.

"A chance to communicate and communicate?!"

Looking at the coffee saucer and coffee cup still held by Augustus, Zheng Jianguo recalled the previous evaluation of himself in his mind. He somewhat understood the meaning of these two words, from Harvard University. What can outstanding graduates communicate with each other?

eat?

drink?

play?

fun?

These are probably the most basic treatment. According to Zheng Jianguo's understanding of the treatment of Harvard University graduates in the first year, if anyone gets an annual salary of less than US$30,000, it will cause other students to pay special attention. Of course it is There is a college graduate who is not in this statistics, that is his medical school!

As the world’s top university with an acceptance rate of only 5%, Harvard University has been shining globally with an extremely low acceptance rate since a hundred years ago. Those who apply for Harvard University are not elite students in some places, but from all over the world. Xueba!

In this case, the graduation rate of Harvard University is only 85%.

But the club’s requirement to join is to get an excellent evaluation among these 85%, and this number is not even up to 5% of the 85%!

And now, with such strict joining requirements, the club's treatment is just to build a platform for everyone to communicate?

"Everything in the club can be told to others casually, of course if you are willing to disclose what you have communicated to others—"

Bruce raised the teacup in his hand and said with a smile, the eight exposed teeth flashed and the smile on his face gradually narrowed: "Just like what you said earlier, I believe that no one present will tell other people It’s free to disclose."

"Is it free?"

Zheng Jianguo heard the answer he wanted. He fully understood the role of this club. He imagined the network of connections held by outstanding Harvard graduates in the fields of finance, education, art, medical care, politics, and the military——

After simply thinking about it, Zheng Jianguo came to the recognition that this club is to be placed in New York. As the largest city in the United States, it is also the world’s financial center. Relying on this financial center, education, art, medical, The all-round development of technology, entertainment, publishing, fashion, and sports has made this city more elite.

With such a bizarre and colorful environment, the Harvard Club is probably the most advanced alumni club!

"Of course, our Harvard Club Foundation has also set up scholarships to help students at Harvard University successfully complete their studies, and provide financial sponsorship for postgraduate research and international exchange programs—"

Augustus said and smiled. Before he came, he had only learned about the most popular Harvard graduate from the information.

To be honest, he doesn't like this kind of pushy graduate, because this kind of person is an extremely superficial person who enjoys everyone's cheers!

Even if Zheng Jianguo has made major discoveries in the fields of medicine and physics, Helicobacter pylori does not bring much economic effect, and he can agree with him because of the possibility of winning the Nobel Prize.

Unexpectedly, Augustus witnessed Zheng Jianguo’s terrible keen observation, business insight, and economic control, and he perfectly integrated technological discovery with political needs and financial layout to reach the world. The King of Commodities in China-the purpose of oil contracts!

That's a huge market in trillions of dollars!

"Oh, the Harvard Club Foundation—"

Zheng Jianguo nodded slightly. It seems that the reason why this so-called Harvard Club is attracted to him was because he had arranged for a long oil contract after learning about the Soviet Chen Bing Afghanistan.

However, thinking that this is the capitalist country of America where interests are paramount, Zheng Jianguo nodded and said: "Well, I am honored to receive this invitation, although my grades at Harvard Medical School are a bit lucky. But after all, I got two PhD titles in physics and medicine from Harvard University—"

"Lucky, but it's also an ability."

Augustus finally put down the coffee saucer and coffee cup, talking and standing up, the smile on his white cheeks narrowed, and he reached out to Zheng Jianguo and said: "Zheng Jianguo, you are welcome to join the Harvard Club, if you don’t mind. , I want to hear from you if you want to make a short oil contract, what kind of cooperation is needed?"

"After establishing a short position at a low position, I will find an opportunity to tell the media about the theoretical performance of the atomic-grade graphite layer battery. It will appear on some media the next day.

At this time, if officials from the Department of Energy visit the laboratory and use this as an opportunity to attract attention from the upper echelons, it is best to report on the increase in production of several oil bases in the United States and the Soviet Union at this time to calm the high oil prices.

Zheng Jianguo just briefly thought about it in his mind, and then explained the operational process he could imagine. Fortunately, these things have been deliberately paid attention to. What is missing is that Ignatius previously revealed the search New energy recommendations.

This led Zheng Jianguo to confirm that the high oil price at this moment is the biggest dilemma that President Carter is facing. This dilemma is so large that it needs to find new energy to replace it: "Atomic-grade graphite layer batteries are a long-term plan. It just makes sense to Wangmei to quench his thirst.

At this time, the news of those oil companies increasing production and building new refineries and looking for new oil fields was reported. Then it was reported that the Soviet side was also increasing oil production in this way. From the attitude of the world towards it at this time, I feel There is more than half the probability that oil contracts will undergo major adjustments."

"Do you have information on the actions of the Soviets?"

Augustus blinked quickly. He turned around and looked at Bruce next to him only after the pupils in his brown eyes had shrunk slightly. He also remembered this person who was also a well-informed person in the Republic. He immediately said: "There is a certain News?"

"No, my idea is a direct fabrication. According to people who don't want to disclose the information, this term often appears in American newspapers.

It will increase the credibility of this news, otherwise the whole world will wonder if we have spies in there, you wouldn’t think like that—"

Shaking his head, Zheng Jianguo couldn't help but start to doubt this person's IQ. Such an easy-to-understand truth must be explained by himself. Besides, let alone that he has no sources of intelligence, even if he had one, he would not be able to say that. come out

Now that I can tell the plan I just came up with, it is considered to have shown the greatest sincerity, and the purpose is to find more comrades in arms.

That's a huge market in trillions of dollars!

Even if Zheng Jianguo's own money is used with the greatest leverage, it can only be said to be a drop in the bucket. However, considering the foundation of the Harvard Club, he feels that the success rate of his idea is only more than 50%.

"This, you are right. How can ordinary investors have the ability to distinguish the news reliably? That is all heard from paper and other people. Would you like to share this idea with other people in the club?"

Augustus nodded slowly with a smile, but in Zheng Jianguo's opinion, there are still some problems with his term: "I am willing to share with the powerful people in the club. This strength refers to the economic and financial aspects. , Media, and politics.”

"Of course, considering the amount of funds to be used, you don't have the strength to know it, but it will cause unnecessary trouble. You can rest assured.

Augustus gave a clear result, Zheng Jianguo nodded and looked at the coffee cup in his hand, and said, "About what time is it?"

"Approximately how long will the papers in your laboratory be published?"

Augustus asked, and Zheng Jianguo blinked his eyes and said: "The publication time will not be fixed. After the paper is sent, other reviewers will need to review the paper. Considering that it is all mailed, it will take half a month to arrive. About half a year.

Of course, considering the authority of the MIT Physics Laboratory in this field, about 20 days is almost the same."

"It's May 5th, and 20 days will be around May 25th at the end of the month. I remember you seem to be attending the premiere of Camille Shields movie. If there is no accident, maybe you can inform the media at that time. ——"

When it comes to specific implementation, Augustus made a decision without thinking about it for too long. He also considered that Zheng Jianguo himself had a certain topical interest, so when he appeared together with Camille Xiaosi, he received attention. What will be higher: "Considering that some people are busy, I also need some time to coordinate. How do you feel?"

"The premiere date of Youth Coral Island is June 5th. It seems to be exactly one month later, so it is tentatively scheduled to be this time. Considering that the premiere will be held at night, we can just use the day and day to build positions. ."

People with strength are of course busy. Zheng Jianguo knew how busy he was just by looking at him. So he quickly bumped into the coffee cup held by Augustus, and then touched and drank with Bruce. After taking a sip of coffee, he continued to speak: "Aren't our funds jointly managed?"

"Of course not, joint management is not meaningful, and it will leave traces when transferring in and out, so it is better to manage them separately."

Bruce continued and said that Zheng Jianguo would be able to solve his doubts, otherwise such a large amount of funds would be put in an account, and someone would move their hands and feet in the process, then I still don’t know what trouble it will cause:" Then hold it for another month."
