Chapter 242: Eat and Drink Well
Xia Xiaona said, "Oh, you say it's okay, right?"
Yu Hong said: "Of course I have no opinion, you have to ask Li Xin if it's okay." ”
Li Xin said: "No problem, listen to you." After a while, I will gather downstairs after work and take my car over. ”
Gao Hui asked, "Is it just a few of us?"
Li Xin said: "If you think about it, you can call anyone again." ”
Yu Hong asked Gao Hui: "Who else do you want to call, don't you want the chairman to go with you?"
Gao Hui said: "You can really talk about it, if he goes, how will he eat this meal?"
Yu Hong said, "You know too?"
Li Xin asked Gao Hui, "What do you mean?"
Gao Hui said, "Do you want to call Lin Li?"
Li Xin said, "Yes, you can call him along." ”
Gao Hui said, "Okay, I'll call him." That's it, gather downstairs after work. ”
Yu Hong opened the door, looked at Liu Zhongzhou's office, turned around and waved to Xia Xiaona and Gao Hui, and the three of them quietly left Li Xin's office.
In Ma Tianming's office downstairs, Ma Tianming sat alone at the table in a daze, and his mood at this time was extremely complicated. As the deputy general manager in charge of sugar sales at the sales company, Ma Tianming was excluded from the non-ferrous metals business of the Southern Group, and he only learned a lot of information after the fact, and in this regard, he was not as good as an ordinary employee of the finance department.
For example, when the 20,000 tons of copper futures of the Southern Group were sold and opened, no one asked for his opinion at all, and the news was also told to him by the staff of the finance department after the position was opened.
In this regard, although he has a lot of dissatisfaction in his heart, he dares to be angry and dare not speak. Seeing that the group's 20,000-ton short position was losing a huge amount, he was secretly glad in his heart that he did not follow Liu Zhongzhou and them to short futures copper.
Because Liu Zhongzhou and Huang Hongliang didn't take themselves seriously, Ma Tianming even had some feelings of schadenfreude over their mistakes, and he thought to himself: Aren't you Niu X? Why did you fall into the pit now?
Today, the news that Li Xin made money by doing long futures copper reached Ma Tianming's ears, making him secretly complain about Li Xin while envious.
If Li Xin said to himself that he was buying long at that time, he would definitely follow Li Xin to go long, so that he would make money.
Ma Tianming secretly calculated an account in his heart, this year's cane sugar sales business, by the end of the year, half of Li Xin's profits would have burned high incense.
What makes Ma Tianming puzzled is that Liu Zhongzhou's promotion of Li Xin should have taken a fancy to Li Xin's ability in the futures business, but why in this selling hedging operation, Liu Zhongzhou's strategy was completely opposite to Li Xin's.
Now that Li Xin has made money, Liu Zhongzhou has lost a lot of money, Ma Tianming is puzzled by this, could it be that Li Xin said one thing to Liu Zhongzhou, but what he did was another?
Thinking about Li Xin's making a lot of money in futures, Ma Tianming secretly wondered in his heart: in the future, will he also find a way to transfer part of the funds for cane sugar sales and see the opportunity to invest in the futures market, whether it is futures sugar or futures copper, which side will be invested if there is an opportunity.
The key question now is whether Liu Zhongzhou and Huang Hongliang will agree to do so themselves.
It's just futures candy, but this is your own business, and you can find a reason to convince them. But this futures copper is difficult, Liu Zhongzhou and Huang Hongliang completely isolated themselves from the non-ferrous metal business, and now they want to play the idea of futures copper, let alone Liu Zhongzhou, their top boss Huang Hongliang can't pass this hurdle.
In the past year or so, the fluctuation of sugar prices is not very large, and Ma Tianming's profits on this are also very small, tossing and turning, and he can't make a few dollars a year, but he can't do other business, especially watching the copper price "boom" up, he can't do anything in a hurry.
Ma Tianming just sat and thought about it, until the chatter of people commuting in the corridor interrupted him, and he realized that it was past the time to get off work.
He stood up and stretched, smoothed his hair with his hand, took his handbag, locked the door, and went downstairs.
In the corridor, Ma Tianming saw Gao Hui, Lin Li, Xia Xiaona and Yu Hong walking in front of him, so Ma Tianming slowed down, opened a distance from them, and followed them from a distance.
The previous people are all lower than Ma Tianming's positions, and Ma Tianming will not take the initiative to talk to them except for things at work. What's more, this is on the way home from work, and he is worried that there will be people here to take his car for an excuse, so he stays away from them.
By the time they went downstairs, they should have already left the company compound, Ma Tianming thought to himself.
Gao Hui and the others didn't notice that Ma Tianming was following behind, they just talked and laughed all the way and walked down the corridor. When they came to the parking lot downstairs, several people didn't go to the bicycle shed to ride their bicycles, but went straight to Li Xin's BMW sedan, opened the door, and got in one after another.
When Li Xin drove past Ma Tianming, the laughter of several people in the car made the lonely Ma Tianming feel very uncomfortable. Thinking of Li Xin's money, Ma Tianming easily guessed that a few of them must have gone somewhere to celebrate.
Ma Tianming even had an impulse to go with Li Xin and them.
But Li Xin's car passed by him in a blink of an eye, and before Ma Tianming could make up his mind whether to go with Li Xin and them, Li Xin's car had already driven out of the company's compound.
He thought to himself: Looking at the situation just now, Li Xin should be sitting in the car waiting for Gao Hui and a few of them, if only he came downstairs a few minutes earlier, Li Xin's car was parked next to his car, and he would have caught up if he came down early.
While secretly regretting it, Ma Tianming thought about it: The people in Li Xin's car just now were all employees of the original sugar company, and they were all his subordinates, and if he went, he would be a little embarrassed, and he didn't know how to talk to Li Xin in front of them.
As soon as Li Xin's car drove out of the company compound, Yu Hong, who was sitting in the back seat, said, "Did you pay attention to Mr. Ma just now?"
Gao Hui, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yu Hong said: "When we passed by Mr. Ma just now, Mr. Ma stared at us, and his eyes were a little strange. ”
Gao Hui said: "You are really powerful, you can see that his eyes are a little strange at a glance, can you see what he is thinking?"
Yu Hong said: "I can see what he thinks, I just think it's a little weird." ”
Gao Hui joked: "Why don't you go and talk to him, don't look at us like that." ”
Yu Hong smiled: "Forget it, if you want to go, maybe you and him have a common language." ”
Li Xin asked Lin Li while driving, "Lin Li, how is your sugar business doing this year?"
Lin Li said: "Alas, the price of sugar is not good this year, so-so, it is to make some hard money all year round, or the copper business is good, Gao Hui, you have made a lot of money this year, you look at how much the copper price has risen this year! ”
Gao Hui said to Lin Li: "You are looking glamorous on the side, in fact, there are more doorways here than the doorways of sucrose, and it is not easy for us to make this money, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read." ”
Lin Li said: "Am I wrong? ”
Gao Hui listened to Lin Li's words and stopped, he estimated that Lin Li didn't know about the group's huge losses in short-selling copper futures, if Lin Li knew about this, he probably wouldn't have said that.
But this matter is still in the stage of secrecy, and Gao Hui doesn't dare to say it to Lin Li casually.
Lin Li, who was sitting on the right side of the back row, asked Xia Xiaona without saying anything about Yu Hong, who was sitting in the middle: "Xia Xiaona, what have you been busy with lately?"
Xia Xiaona said: "It's not just going to work. ”
Lin Li originally wanted to take the opportunity to talk to Xia Xiaona, but seeing Xia Xiaona's lukewarm expression, and there were so many people sitting next to him in the car, he was afraid that it would not look good to touch his gray nose in front of everyone, so he stopped talking.
Xingyun Restaurant was not too far from the Southern Group, and while talking, the car soon came to the downstairs of Xingyun Restaurant. A few people entered the box on the second floor, the waiter brought the menu, Li Xin took the menu and handed it to Gao Hui and said, "What dishes do you want to eat, please order at will." ”
Gao Hui said: "It's better for you to order, you are the host." ”
Li Xin said: "Naturally, you order the dishes when you are invited to dinner, otherwise, each person orders a few dishes, and you can order what you like to eat, okay?"
Gao Hui said, "Good idea, then I'll come first." He didn't even look at the menu, and said to the waiter: "A plate of beef tenderloin with black pepper, a plate of fried porcini mushrooms." ”
Lin Li took the menu handed over by Gao Hui, flipped through it and said, "Yes, the wild mushrooms are good now, I'll have a fried dried mushroom and a squirrel fish." ”
Li Xin asked Xia Xiaona and Yu Hong, "What do you two order? ”
Yu Hong said: "You have ordered all the delicious food, I will order a boiled pork slice, and then a vegetarian fried magnolia slice." ”
Xia Xiaona said: "Can you eat so much? Or I won't order it, that's all." ”
Li Xin said: "There are not many of these dishes, you can order two more." ”
Xia Xiaona looked for a while on the menu and said, "I'll order two vegetarian dishes, steamed taro flowers with eggplant, and a bean tip tofu soup, that's all, that's enough." ”
Li Xin said: "I haven't ordered it yet." ”
Gao Hui said: "The dishes are really enough, I can't order any more, the dishes here are very large." ”
Li Xin said: "Then I order staple food and wine, what is the staple food?
Yu Hong said: "This is good, I want this." ”
