Chapter Seventy-Five: Preparation
Wang Dong said: "Who says it's not, the one in my factory can withstand such a toss, and if it continues like this, I won't be able to turn it around!"
Lin Li asked, "Didn't you sign a contract in the first place?"
Wang Dong said: "Sign it, but I always think that everyone is a brother unit in the system, and if you don't look up and look down, you won't get into trouble to the point of tearing your face and fighting a lawsuit." ”
Lin Li said: "That's right, it's best to be able to negotiate a solution, after all, we have to deal with it in the future." ”
After Wang Dong and Lin Li finished chatting, they immediately called the sales section chief again and said, "After you go to the light industry supply and marketing company, you must meet Ma Tianming in person to see if he is in the company." If he's not been in the company lately, tell me right away. ”
The sales section chief said: "Factory director, is there really a problem with this payment?"
Wang Dong said: "I hope it will be fine." But I always think it's a little bad, anyway, you just need to be careful when you go up. ”
After answering Wang Dong's call, Ma Tianming, who was already upset, couldn't sleep even more.
Recently, his mind has been all about the price of sugar futures, and in addition to reading the faxed data every day, he has been constantly calling to understand the market during the day.
Fortunately, the price has now gradually risen to more than 3,900 yuan, which is only one step away from his own psychological price.
Should I sell it now, or wait and see?
When he was struggling with this problem, he was often so nervous that he felt like he was about to jump out, and he had to get up and walk back and forth in the office to calm down his overly nervous emotions.
Now Wang Dong called to urge him to pay for the goods, which made his mental pressure even more multiplied.
If it waits any longer, it is easy for the price to continue to rise, but if the price falls from then on, the profit expected on the books will be in vain. If this business is not profitable, there will be a gap in the funds of the sugar factory!
Looking back and thinking about it carefully, this business was not worrying from the beginning, and now I am all trapped in it, I have no mind to take care of the past business, and I am also absent-minded in several contacts and negotiations with the Southern Group.
He had imagined countless times in his heart that if the price of such a large number of goods in his hand fell, he might lose hundreds of thousands in an instant.
There is an example of Wu Bin in front, and he is really worried that he will accidentally follow Wu Bin's old path!
Since the market outlook is not clear, then accept it when it is good. Otherwise, you will continue to suffer from it!
He got up as soon as he got up, didn't sleep at noon, didn't care about his wife's doubts and questions, and only said: "There is something urgent to go to the company!" and went out and drove straight to the futures exchange.
Zhang Jin saw Ma Tianming walking in in a hurry, got up to greet him, and said, "Mr. Ma, are you free to come over today?"
Ma Tianming nodded to him, said hello, and then sat down in front of a computer. He was in a hurry to sell, and when he saw that the price of the May contract was 3970 on the screen, he said to Zhang Jin: "I want to sell and open a position now, you can help me quote an order." ”
When Zhang Jin heard this, he paused for a moment and said, "Mr. Ma, are you going to sell and open a position today?"
Ma Tianming said: "Yes. ”
Zhang Jin pondered his tone and said: "Mr. Ma, you haven't gone through the deposit procedures yet, there are no funds in the account, and you can't open a position." ”
The other clients in the office listened to their conversation and looked back at Ma Tianming.
Ma Tianming suddenly reacted, he was bent on selling the goods in his hand, but he forgot to let the financial manager transfer the funds to the futures account first. He patted his head and said, "Alas, forget about it!"
He immediately took out his mobile phone and called the financial manager, saying, "You can now come to the futures company to go through the deposit procedures and transfer the funds to the futures account." What exactly needs to be done, I will call the person at the futures company and ask him to talk to you. After speaking, he handed the mobile phone to Zhang Jin, Zhang Jin quickly took it and told the other party on the phone the steps to come and go through the formalities.
After Zhang Jin finished speaking, he returned the phone to Ma Tianming.
Ma Tianming took the mobile phone and put it in his bag and asked Zhang Jin: "How long does it take to go through the deposit procedures?
Zhang Jin listened and said with a smile: "Mr. Ma, why are you in such a hurry? The deposit procedures can be completed in more than ten minutes, but it takes time to transfer funds between banks, and it also takes time for the exchange to confirm the arrival of funds." Therefore, the transaction can only be made the day after the funds are received. In other words, if you want to open a position, you can only open it tomorrow morning at the earliest. ”
He thought in his heart that Ma Tianming was really a novice and didn't know much about these rules. If you follow your own ideas, I wish Ma Tianming could trade today, but there are restrictions on the exchange system, and I really can't do anything. Anyway, their funds came in today, and the transaction was a matter of time. As the saying goes: a good meal is not afraid of being late, and there is no hurry for one day or two.
When Ma Tianming heard this, he was very disappointed, and said, "Why is it so troublesome?" He thought to himself, he finally made up his mind to sell today, but he didn't expect that there would be so many procedures to go through after he came.
Zhang Jin comforted him and said: "Mr. Ma, don't worry, you can trade early tomorrow morning, it doesn't matter." ”
Zhang Jin is an outsider, where would he know Ma Tianming's mood at this time.
Ma Tianming has been made a little like a frightened bird by the unpredictable market and Wang Dong's collection call, and he is now out of order, so he is worried that the price will fall.
Seeing that he was in such a hurry to sell, Zhang Jin asked: "Mr. Ma, what do you think of the market, do you think it will fall recently?"
Ma Tianming said: "It's hard to say, but it has risen so much, and if it falls, it is estimated that the range will not be small." ”
Zhang Jin nodded when he heard this, he knew that the goods sold by Ma Tianming were to be delivered, which means that Ma Tianming already had the goods in his hands, and he dared to sell them at this price, he must have made a profit, otherwise it would not be like this.
Ma Tianming said that there are hundreds of goods to be delivered, that is, thousands of tons. This is not a decimal number. In the case of not seeing the market outlook clearly, there are already profits, and it is undoubtedly the safest way to sell first to lock in profits.
He didn't want to ask Ma Tianming what the cost price of the goods he planned to sell was, but for such a large number of goods, as long as there was a price difference of dozens of points per ton, the total profit was also a large amount.
Ma Tianming looked at his watch, it was still early, since he couldn't trade today, it was in vain for him to stay here, and he was at a loss because of the changing market, so he wanted to leave.
In addition, he saw that someone next to him placed orders and transactions from time to time, and they were all two or three lots, which should be small retail investors, and they were not at the same level as himself.
This made him even more unable to sit still, so he got up and said to Zhang Jin: "The financial manager of my company will come in a while, what do you need to do, you will dock with him, and I will come back tomorrow." ”
With that, he went out and left.
He was dismissive of these specific matters that the financial manager came to do. He felt that if he was present when doing these things, it would be very cheap for outsiders to see him, which was not in line with his identity as the general manager.
After Ma Tianming went out, Lao Zhao asked Zhang Jin: "Is this the corporate customer who came over not long ago?"
Zhang Jin nodded.
Lao Zhao asked again: "Is it from the sugar factory?"
Zhang Jin said: "No, it's a trading company. ”
Lao Zhao said: "These traders have come to the futures market to sell sugar, and it seems that the price has peaked!"
Lao Chen said: "This is not necessarily, this is not a common phenomenon, have you seen other sugar factories or traders selling goods here? ”
Lao Zhao said: "It has been slowly rising from more than 3,200, and the cumulative increase is so big, there is not even a decent pullback, I think it is a little dangerous." ”
Lao Chen smiled: "Then do you dare to go short?"
Lao Zhao thought about it and didn't answer him.
At this moment, Li Xin walked in.
Lao Chen transferred the question that Lao Zhao didn't answer just now to Li Xin: "Li Xin, do you dare to short at this price?"
As soon as Li Xin sat down, before he had time to look at the market, he was asked so cluelessly, and he said puzzledly: "Why are you short at this time?"
Lao Chen took over and explained: "Lao Zhao just saw a trading company preparing to sell at this price, so he said that the market is about to peak, so I asked you if you dare to short at this price." ”
When Li Xin heard this, he asked vigilantly: "How much does the trading company sell at this price?"
Lao Chen looked at Zhang Jin and said, "There are probably hundreds of hands, isn't it?"
Zhang Jin nodded.
Li Xin asked Zhang Jin: "There are hundreds of hands, and there are a lot of them, what kind of company is it?"
Zhang Jin said: "It seems to be called a light industry supply and marketing company, which was opened not long ago. ”
Li Xin asked in surprise: "Is the light industry supply and marketing company open an account with you?"
Seeing Li Xin's expression, Zhang Jin said, "Yes, what, do you know this company?"
Li Xin noticed that he was a little out of shape, and quickly pretended to be an understatement and said, "Oh, I seem to have heard of it before." ”
Then he asked Zhang Jin again: "They have already opened a position to sell just now?"
Zhang Jin said: "Not yet, I was going to sell just now, but they have no funds in their accounts, and someone will come to go through the deposit procedures in a while, and they will be able to open a position tomorrow morning." ”
Li Xin said, "Oh, that's it. ”
Lao Chen was still thinking about the question just now, and asked Li Xin again: "Do you think you can go short at this time?"
Li Xin thought for a while and said, "I don't short, I think it will rise a little more." ”
Lao Zhao interjected at this time and asked, "You said that it will rise some, how much is this "some"?"
Li Xin didn't hide it either, and said, "One or two hundred yuan." ”
Lao Zhao asked: "You still hold the position in your hand?"
Li Xin said: "Yes, I think it will rise by another one or two hundred yuan, so I am not in a hurry to close the position." Besides, the position in my hand is a contract in September, and it's only early April, so it's still early. ”
In Li Xin's opinion, by this time, the market has gone for the most part, and he no longer needs to hide his true thoughts.
