A few days ago, I accidentally watched the movie "Gold Mine" starring Oscar actor Matthew McConaughey, and was shocked by Uncle Xiu's god-level interpretation again, and I saw that this emperor masterfully presented the Wall Street-themed movie "Big Sell". Directed by renowned screenwriter Stephen Gahan, who won the Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay, "Goldmine" is based on a true story, telling the story of ambitious modern explorer Kenny Wales (played by Uncle Xiu) and depressed geologist Michael (played by Edgar Ramirez) to explore for gold in an unknown rainforest in Indonesia.
Kenny was born a rich second generation, but unfortunately with the death of his father, the family fell into the middle. The crazy Kenny is guided by God by chance in a dream, and the mountains of gold deep in the Indonesian rainforest call him. Kenny said just do it, sold his girlfriend's jewelry rings and watches for a plane ticket and flew to Indonesia, and soon found Michael, a geologist who was eager to prove his prospecting skills again, and after convincing Michael, the two began a painstaking journey to find gold in the Indonesian rainforest.
After all the hardships, Kenny also quickly spent the last $2,300, and when he was dying, he told Michael "Don't stop exploration, don't let me die in nothing", fortunately, Michael did not steam steamed buns, and finally found a gold mine with "8 ounces per ton of gold"!
Kenny embarked on a frenzied fundraising journey, impressing bankers and syndicates with his three-inch tongue, and Wasshaw Mining had attracted Wall Street gold before it had yet to dig up gold.
As Kenny and his friends cheered and celebrated, Wasshaw Mining had been coveted by Wall Street plutocrats and Indonesia's Suharto government to squeeze Wasshaw out of the gold project. Uncle Xiu naturally did not agree and personally tore up the $300 million agreement, after all, the gold mine was already valued at $30 billion at this time. In the end, Kenny and Michael manage to win the trust of Suharto's son, and the three are ready to fight.
It seems that when the film should end perfectly, the reversal of subversing the three views is said to come, the gold mine cannot mine gold at all, which is not at all consistent with the previous sampling, causing turmoil involving the financial world and Indonesian politics. Michael "jumped to commit suicide" on a helicopter en route to Indonesia's rainforest, and Kenny was investigated by the FBI claiming to have been deceived innocently.
In the end, Kenny successfully survived the investigation and reunited with his girlfriend Kaijiubei in a relaxed and free manner. In the letter Kay handed to him, a check for $83,000,000 was received with a sly smile on his face...
The real events of the film are the infamous 1993 Bre-X Gold Mining Company scam. Bre-X Gold Mining Company is a Canadian gold mining company, a typical junk company, with a stock price of 25 cents when it went public in 1989. Later, the company obtained the mining rights of the Indonesian mine, and by counterfeiting gold dust in the samples, it claimed to have detected large gold mines containing thousands of tons. Driven by this news, the company's share price soared dozens of times, and by April 1996, their share price had soared to 200 yuan. In October of that year, the fraud of Bre-X Gold Mining Company was exposed with the Indonesian government's start of mining, the stock price quickly collapsed, and the shareholders were bloodbathed, only the founder of Bre-X Gold Mining Company and the prospector became vested interests, but the company was soon investigated by Canadian prosecutors, and the founder of the company soon died of cerebral artery disease.
