Chapter 306: So to speak
"Is this Augustus wanting to see himself?"
The phone call that didn't get through yesterday flashed in his mind, Zheng Jianguo immediately said hello to Alfonso and left the emergency room, but he had a little trouble when he saw the old policeman Youlan: "Zheng, this is working time, are you asking for leave again?"
"No, someone brought me something, I'll pick it up at the hospital gate. ”
Knowing that the other party was concerned about him, Zheng Jianguo stopped and said vaguely, Youlan wiped the droppings from the corners of his eyes and turned his head to look at the gate of the emergency room, and saw a parked Chevrolet on the side of the road getting up and down, and beckoning to this side, and said: "Okay, I'm here to watch you, go and come back quickly-"
"Okay, thank you, Yulan~"
Zheng Jianguo waved his hand with a gentle smile on his face as appreciation, and endured the heat wave to the side of Chevrolet, and found that this person was still an acquaintance, the last time he saw Bruce at his home on the Upper East Side, the one who was with Augustus at the time and didn't say his name: "Hey, I haven't seen you introduce yourself last time-"
"Zheng, you don't need to know my name, you just need to know who I represent—"
Although the middle-aged man was not as tall as Alec, Zheng Jianguo could see from his muscles that his green arms and wide shirt could not cover that this was the kind of personal bodyguard he wanted, so he took a beautiful card from his hand: "Is it really Broadway's "Les Miserables"?
"That's a reason, and the following words are all from me on behalf of Mr. Augustus, who wants to know if your oil contract is still held?"
The middle-aged man's gaze swept over Zheng Jianguo's cheeks, and the latter knew that he was observing himself only by the seriousness on the other party's face, so he controlled his impulse to look left and right, and said: "Although the oil contract has been closed, it is because I have found an opportunity to make money in the short term, and the plan will still be executed as I said last time——"
"What if you lose?"
The middle-aged man asked without thinking about it, and Zheng Jianguo showed a bright smile and said: "This opportunity will not be lost, it can be regarded as an opportunity to make a steady profit, if Mr. Augustus is interested, you can look at the current price of oil contracts and the market value of oil companies——"
"Okay, I'll bring your words to Mr. Augustus, and if nothing else, I'll go back. ”
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and Zheng Jianguo raised the exquisite card in his hand and said with a smile: "Then I will go back too, I wish you good luck." ”
"Good luck. ”
The middle-aged man nodded and looked at the elderly policeman in the distance, and then watched Zheng Jianguo turn around and leave and get into the car, and then quickly started the car and drove towards the airport, and when he returned to New York, it was already more than eight o'clock in the evening, and the co-pilot of a car that had been waiting for a long time at the exit of the station said: "Mr. Zheng said that he found an opportunity, which can be regarded as an opportunity to make sure that you don't lose money, and said that if you are interested, you can look at the current price of oil contracts and the market value of oil companies——"
"Oil companies, not oil companies?"
In the back seat, Augustus, who was wearing a tuxedo and a bow tie, looked at him in surprise, and the middle-aged man nodded and said, "It's the oil companies, not the oil companies—"
"Is there a problem with the market value of the oil companies, and is the opportunity to make sure that they are overvalued or undervalued?"
Augustus tapped his finger knuckles and asked, but the middle-aged man and the driver didn't speak, only listened to him say to himself: "It's overestimated that you can short, but now when the oil contract is high, shorting the oil company, this can't be a profitable business, if you do this, it's putting the cart before the horse, it's better to short the oil contract."
And with Zheng's IQ, he will definitely think of this, then it can only be that the stock of the oil company is undervalued, and only the undervalued market value can make a steady profit, and the biggest asset of the oil company is in addition to the refining equipment and transportation equipment, that is, the oil reserves of the oil field in hand, and let me look at the price of the oil contract, it should be saying that the company's market value and oil reserves are too different.
Only in this way can I absorb it while the price is low - hehe, it turns out that the purpose he told me is here, he is afraid that his limited funds will not be able to make a big move, so that I will also follow, so that there are more people who join in the fun, in order to attract the attention of the market to the company's market value, and then push up the company's stock price, narrowing the space for undervaluation.
In this way, he can enter and get the shares of the oil company, retreat or sell the stock when the stock price is high, and take the money to short the futures market of the oil contract, which he didn't know about the last time we met, and if he knew at that time, he wouldn't hide it until I asked you to ask him.
It seems that Zheng is not only a smart person, but also difficult to reach in terms of luck, and I also got the latest news before you came, Zheng's oil contracts on the exchange have all been closed, and all the billions of dollars have been thrown into the stock market——"
"Shall we follow up as well?"
The middle-aged man in the driver's seat spoke, and Augustus nodded and said: "If there is really an oil company that is undervalued by the market, then we will definitely make this money, but if this is really the case, then the favor that Zheng gave us is big enough——"
"The young people are so powerful these days—"
The middle-aged man in the driver's seat spoke, and Augustus showed a look of approval on his face: "They are standing on our shoulders to learn, when I was a child, a computer weighed dozens of tons, and the cost of millions was only more than 10,000 tubes, but now you look at the latest, hundreds of thousands of tube CPUs——"
"Hehe, BOSS, it's no better than when we were younger, when an electron tube was as thick as a finger, but now it doesn't seem to be called an electron tube, transistor?"
The middle-aged man in the driver's seat said with a smile, Augustus nodded quickly: "Yes, it's a transistor, but it's only been a few years, and it feels like yesterday when I see you, but think about Zheng, we're really old - when I was his age, not to mention the money in the account, all the belongings were less than $5."
But look at him, he made a billion dollars at the age of 18! There are still people in this club who are not happy, saying that he is from the Republic, and the education he received since childhood is different from ours, but I think he likes money and women, and some people can't help it, this is no different from us~"
"BOSS, if you can endure it in front of money and women, it's a problem in your heart-"
The middle-aged man in the driver's seat said, Augustus sighed and said: "Young and rich are romantic, this is originally a logical thing, but the biggest disadvantage of this is that there is no one in sight, just put it on Zheng's body, he is a medical background, if you want to say that there is any industry in this world that can change people the most, that is the doctors who are used to seeing life and death——"
"BOSS, are you worried that you won't be able to control Zheng?"
The middle-aged man in the co-pilot asked, Augustus nodded and said: "People will have shortcomings, and there are no more than three points on men, good money, good power, good women, Zheng won't talk about making money, we have to make money behind his ass."
If he is good, he is still a resident doctor, and if he really has this inclination, he will not have to stay with us, and he can get the maximum rights of a doctor by returning to China, as well as his achievements in the field of physics.
Even on the women's side, he can endure not touching it after throwing himself into his arms, either he is a traditional Republic man, or if he has any concerns in his heart, or even if he thinks about it to the extreme, he has already guessed the identity of Aster-"
"You're saying he knew Esther was one of ours, so he didn't touch her?"
On the endless bustling streets, the car carrying the three disappeared into the dense night with taillights, and hundreds of kilometers away in the 53 St. Paul in Boston, Zheng Jianguo glanced at the information on the pager, and saw Charlie handing the clipboard in front of him, and a line of English that can be called ugly on it also came into view: "The reason why I was able to complete the establishment of these accounts in one day is because I started to make these preparations after you revealed your intention to set up your own fund——"
"Good job—"
Zheng Jianguo glanced at Charlie in surprise, nodded with an approving face, and felt that this product had finally impressed him, but then he remembered that these things in the account were the jobs of the exchange, and the little surprise in his heart disappeared in an instant, but he was worried about the reaction of these two oil companies: "If you let these two oil companies know that someone is eyeing their stocks-"
"That's what I came to you for, there was something wrong with the phone line when I was closing the position today, and the trading system was down for more than an hour, so I thought about the increase in follow-up trading volume, so it is better to go to the New York Stock Exchange to open a large room, and if there is a problem with the system, you can also go to the site to place an order manually——"
Keenly capturing Zheng Jianguo's emotional changes, Charlie began to talk about his plan again, and he didn't continue to use the clipboard without involving important news, and he shook his head without thinking about it: "It's right for you to go, but opening a big room will attract the attention of others, just open a general one, and try to avoid startling snakes before attracting the attention of the oil company——"
"Okay, if you don't have any other requirements, then I'll go first-"
Charlie blinked, not to mention that Zheng Jianguo is the boss, he himself eats the bowl of rice on the exchange, and knows that before the stock absorption is completed, it is best not to arouse the vigilance of the Shi [fo] oil company.
After all, although the stock price rise is a good thing, the premise is that it is not targeted, because the former is simply to make money, and being targeted represents the battle for equity, that is, the battle for the ownership of the company.
Although the stock price can be sold for more money after the stock price rises, after all, the core of the transaction is still someone who spends money to buy stocks, but for the controller of the company, no one will willingly give up their family business and be swept away with the money to retire.
Therefore, if Zheng Jianguo's idea of wanting to absorb while the price is low is known to the oil company, the most direct consequence is to cause the oil company to counterattack.
Of course, Charlie didn't hide his plans before leaving: "If everything goes well, I plan to get 3% of the shares in the first three days of the week, and then if it hasn't caused a reaction from the market and the company, I plan to buy as many stocks as possible on the fourth day, and since the market will be closed on the weekend, I plan to go all out on the fifth day——"
"This is the first three days to sneak into the village, don't you want to shoot?"
Zheng Jianguo didn't have much effort, and he knew Charlie's thoughts: "After revealing his identity on the fourth day, he began to show his fangs on the fifth day——"
It's just that in the next few days, I don't know if the oil companies were slow to react, or if they thought that the slow rise in stocks in the market was a normal reaction, or Charlie's secret operation was too deceptive, and the two companies did not make any moves at all-
At 4:05 p.m. the next day, Zheng Jianguo received a number on his pager: "0.6:0.3"
At 4:05 p.m. on the third day, Zheng Jianguo received a number on his pager: "1.1:0.7"
At 4:05 p.m. on the fourth day, Zheng Jianguo received a number on his pager: "1.9:1.5"
"That's pretty much it, isn't it?"
Looking at the stock price of Ashland Petroleum Company flashed on TV, Zheng Jianguo did not expect to receive a total of 3.4% so smoothly, and the reason why he cares so much about this figure is mainly because these two companies have put aside the 60% undervalued by the market, and the overall market value of the two companies exceeds 34 billion US dollars.
one-tenth of $34 billion, which is only $3.4 billion, but Zheng Jianguo's own funds are only 1 billion, which is less than one-third of this volume, not to mention what the hosts on TV at this time are talking about.
"Hey, Manion, make your voice louder. ”
Looking at the words of Ashland Oil Company that had flashed and stopped on the host's screen, Zheng Jianguo turned his head and beckoned to Ma Nion in the service desk, who couldn't help but look up at the TV host, so he had to take out the remote control and amplify his voice: "Zheng, have you gone to speculate in stocks?"
"Well, so to speak~"
Zheng Jianguo frowned and squeezed out a smile and looked at the TV, only to hear the host reading the report aloud: "——In terms of turnover rate, its transaction volume has exceeded the scale of 600 million US dollars, and Mike, a special commentator of this station, believes that in the past three days, the overall transaction volume of Ashland and Phillip Oil has exceeded 1.2 billion US dollars.
Ashland topped the list this week with an 8.5% turnover rate, followed by Phillips Oil with a turnover rate of 7.3%.
And we all know that although these two companies have a market value of tens of billions of dollars, there is still a big gap compared with companies such as Essenck, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, and EOG Energy.
Because the performance of these two companies in the last week was almost around 3.1%, we all know that the turnover rate in the stock market is less than 3%, which means that the market is not optimistic about these two stocks, so the reason for this phenomenon is that someone is buying the shares of these two companies. ”
