Chapter 239: Meeting, Temptation

United States.

"Charles, the bears are in the market. ”

"OK, that's great, I think we should celebrate. ”

"Don't be too happy, has the storage capacity problem been arranged?"

"Don't worry, there will be no problems, I promise God. ”

......

Xinghai Investment, a large trading room.

Looking at the constantly beating numbers on the screen, Guo Xumin was a little nervous: "I can't hold it." ”

Wei Zongru asked, "How much did you lose?"

Guo Xumin confirmed and said, "Two billion." ”

Wei Zongru thought about it and said, "Inform everyone to enter the market, the loss cannot continue to magnify." ”

Guo Yangmin nodded and immediately went out to call.

Capital.

"Boss, Xinghai has notified me to enter the venue, what should I do?"

"Let's give it a go, I hope Boss Shen is right. ”

"Okay. ”

There are also people in Shanghai, Lin'an, Yangcheng and other places who face the same choice.

And around the world, there are also many people who are paying attention to the upcoming war in the crude oil futures market, ready to see the direction of the wind at any time. Now the global situation is a bit bad, no matter how diverse the news on the market is, it is only retail investors who are affected and swayed, and large institutions are very cautious and have their own judgments, and will not easily participate in the melee.

The economic contraction is certain, as is the decline in spending power and demand.

There are too many factors that affect the outcome of bulls and bears.

America, a café.

Pete was talking to a black man in a whisper.

"I want to know the real stock of the oil depot. ”

"Sorry, you found the wrong person. ”

"One hundred thousand dollars. ”

"Apologize. ”

"Two hundred thousand dollars. ”

"Apologize. ”

"Five hundred thousand dollars. ”

"Apologize. ”

"A million dollars. ”

"Apologize. ”

"Two million dollars, I'm sorry to find someone else. ”

"Deal. ”

Tokyo.

The last time he came to Japan, Shen Hui was in a hurry, and after meeting with the senior management of several financial institutions, he hurriedly flew to Europe, without bothering to take a good look at Tokyo, one of the four major cities in the world.

In terms of urban development, Shanghai is not much worse than Tokyo, at least there are no telephone poles on the streets, and the roads are spacious enough, but other than that, there seems to be nothing to praise.

Tokyo is very big, there are many people, as the world's most populous city, more people than Shanghai is certain, although after entering April, with the spread of the epidemic, Tokyo has also been greatly affected, the Japanese government has called on the public not to go out, but Tokyo as the economic center of Japan, the population density is high in the world, and the streets are still full of traffic.

At the intersection of Shizi Road, vehicles take the initiative to let people, and pedestrians will also quickly cross the road.

There is no road rage, there is no mutual fighting, and there is harmony between people and cars.

What impressed Shen Hui the most was that the city was clean to the bones. Shanghai is also very clean, but it is impossible for sanitation workers to wipe the garbage trucks with rags, which are the most important garbage trucks in Tokyo.

If you don't wipe it with a rag, how can it be clean like a new car that has just left the factory.

Someone in front of me called a taxi, and the driver got out of the car to open the door for the passengers.

Yang Shan looked at it in her eyes and said: "The quality of Japan's people is indeed very high, and we have to catch up." ”

An office secretary said: "Japan's national quality is based on strict legal provisions and enforcement, in Japan shopping queue littering will violate the law and be punished, if the circumstances are serious, even will be sentenced, long-term persistence will form a habit, if our country can standardize the law, and implement it well, it will be able to catch up in a few decades." ”

Another secretary said, "It's easier said than done. ”

Everyone was silent, yes, it's easier said than done.

Shen Hui didn't bring Chen Lijun when he came out this time, so he brought Yang Shan and a few secretaries to translate, of course, the security guards didn't bring less, after all, a foreign country is not as good as a domestic country, and personal safety is always the first place, so it is impossible not to pay attention to it.

I made an appointment with Mitsubishi Bank President Yoshida Shoichi to have dinner in the evening, and when it was okay, Shen Hui went out shopping.

In addition to Yang Shan and the secretary of the office, he was accompanied by Takeda Xiong and two female secretaries.

Takeda Xiong is the person in charge of the Japan Office arranged by Shen Huinian when he came to Tokyo, and he is similar to Zhang Jing, and he is usually responsible for collecting some business intelligence information and engaging in financing business under reception and contact.

It's usually very relaxed, but the busiest time is when my parents come to Tokyo.

Takeda Xiong also knows in his heart that he can't do big things by himself, and the most important responsibility in a lot of responsibilities is actually how to serve his parents well, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't do small things well, if he doesn't do this well, his job will come to an end.

Since learning that the big boss is coming to Tokyo, Takeda has basically not had a good night's sleep.

In order to welcome the arrival of the big boss, it really took a lot of effort.

The big boss's car and accommodation during his stay in Tokyo were all well thought out and carefully arranged.

In the evening, Shen Hui and Mitsubishi Bank President Shoichi Yoshida had dinner at the KKR Hotel.

During the pandemic, many restaurants and shopping malls in Tokyo were closed, and it was not easy to find a place to eat.

Yoshida is in his early fifties, the average life expectancy of Japanese people is the highest in the world, and it is said that seventy years old is considered middle-aged, although this statement is a bit exaggerated, but the age of early fifty years old is indeed the golden age in Japan.

This is Shen Hui's second visit to Yoshida Shoichi, not unfamiliar, so more familiar, kneeling at the dining table, Shen Hui tried to adjust his sitting position, supported his ass with two heels, and said with a smile: "The last time I came to Tokyo in a hurry, I didn't take a good look at the city, I went out for a walk in the afternoon, and finally had a more real feeling about Tokyo." ”

Yoshida Shoichi also smiled and asked, "What does Mr. Shen think?"

"Pretty good. ”

Shen Hui gave a thumbs up and said: "Tokyo is worthy of being one of the four major cities in the world, although because of the early establishment of the city, some infrastructure cannot keep up with the development of today's city, such as the telephone poles on the street, but the city's heritage and culture are worthy of one of the four major metropolises, whether it is the quality of the Japanese people, or the behavior and etiquette, there are many things worth learning." ”

Yoshida said with a smile: "China's Shanghai market is also very good, I basically go to Shanghai once a year, the city is better built than Tokyo, and it is also very dynamic, and I have seen the epitome of China's rapid economic take-off in recent decades." ”

Shen Hui nodded and said: "The development of the Shanghai market is indeed fast, but we still have many shortcomings, and we need to learn and progress, but this is a matter for the government, and it seems that it is not my turn to worry." Last month, I went to London and met with the head of your business in London, Takenan Kuwata, who is now Xinghai's largest agent in the LME, and I hope to have a happy cooperation. ”

"It was a pleasure to work with. ”

Yoshida said with a smile: "Xinghai Investment is one of the most valued customers of Mitsubishi Bank, and we will provide the best quality service to Xinghai Investment's global business with the greatest sincerity." Mitsubishi Bank has branches in many countries around the world, and Xinghai has financial investment business in many countries around the world, and we hope that we can further deepen cooperation and achieve a win-win situation. ”

"I'm looking forward to it too. ”

Shen Hui said in his mouth: "What does Mr. Yoshida think of the crude oil market?"

Yoshida said with a smile: "I don't know much about this, but I've read a report submitted by our research department, the global economic situation is not very good this year, consumption and demand shrinking is the general trend, crude oil production capacity is generally overcapacity, the situation of oversupply in the crude oil market in a short period of time will not change much, Japan is a crude oil importer, which should be a good thing for us." ”

Shen Hui smiled and nodded: "It seems that I have the same view as Mr. Yoshida, I think the WTI light crude oil contract in April has greater investment value, I wonder if Mr. Yoshida is interested in win-win cooperation with Xinghai?"

Yoshida Shoichi understood in his heart and asked, "How sure is Mr. Shen?"

Shen Hui said: "Ten percent don't dare to say, eighty percent!"

Yoshida Masaichi said with a smile: "Mr. Shen is a genius in the field of global financial investment for a hundred years, since the establishment of Xinghai, even in the global financial market where predators gather, it still maintains a winning record, without a single failed investment, I believe that under the leadership of Mr. Shen, Xinghai Investment will be able to achieve brilliant results again in the WTI crude oil contract in April." ”

Shen Hui was hehe, and secretly scolded the old fox in his heart.

They are all smart people with IQ online, and it is impossible for the old fox Yoshida to see his purpose not to know, this is a typical example of not seeing rabbits and not scattering eagles, but shopping malls are like battlefields, competitors have to game, and partners also have to game.

If this old fox really agreed, Shen Hui would have to wonder if there was some conspiracy.

The meaning of the first meeting is actually to test each other and convey an intention.

This kind of risky cooperative negotiation is certainly not a one-time deal.

Shen Hui was not in a hurry, changed the topic and chatted about something else, and said: "This new crown epidemic has dealt a heavy blow to the global economy, I heard that many small enterprises in Japan are not having a good time, Xinghai is very interested in investing in Japan, I don't know if Mr. Yoshida can arrange it, I want to visit some Japanese companies and learn some advanced business philosophy." ”

"It's a trifle!"

Yoshida Shoichi said with a smile: "Now that the export trade is shrinking, many enterprises in Japan have indeed encountered difficulties in their operations, I think the government will definitely welcome Mr. Shen to invest in Japan, I don't know if Mr. Shen has any specific goals, if so, tomorrow I will arrange a vice president to accompany you to visit and inspect." ”

Shen Hui nodded: "I have a few goals, so I'll trouble Mr. Yoshida." ”

"Okay!"

Yoshida Shoichi has always been modest and polite, and people can't fault it in etiquette.

When the banquet was dismissed, Shen Hui reminded again: "I hope Mr. Yoshida will seriously consider this cooperation." ”

Yoshida said with a smile: "Okay, I will seriously consider it, and I also hope that Mitsubishi Bank and Xinghai Investment can always maintain a good cooperative relationship and achieve greater cooperation and win-win cooperation in the global financial business." ”
