Chapter 571: It's Time to Do It (Ask for a Full Book)
In less than two days, the 414.5 billion Hong Kong dollars obtained from the sale of 176,000 ounces of gold, as well as the 120 million liquidity originally held by the bank, only 60 million Hong Kong dollars remained!
Even if Zhuang Rongkun is a pig, he knows that he has been yin, but he doesn't know who it is, and he doesn't have time to find out who it is.
On this day, in the office of the president of Hang Lung Bank in Central, Zhuang Rongkun sat on the sofa with a gloomy face, and opposite him sat a man who was very similar to him but older than him, which was his brother Zhuang Qingquan, who ran a steel group in the Philippines.
It's just that Zhuang Qingquan's face is also gloomy.
In just two days, Hang Lung Bank had a net outflow of more than HK$400 million in the gold futures business, and it is still being lost, and the bank's capital chain is about to break, which shocked him.
But after his younger brother Zhuang Rongkun's explanation, Zhuang Qingquan also knew that it was no wonder that his younger brother was wrong, after all, he would have been tricked if it had been him, and the business philosophy of the two brothers was similar.
Zhuang Qingquan asked in a deep voice, "Do you know who is behind the scenes?"
Zhuang Rongkun's face was ashamed, and he shook his head and said: "I asked people to check, but they couldn't find out, and those who came to buy gold futures were all white gloves." ”
Zhuang Qingquan's face was solemn, and he pondered for a moment and asked for key data: "Then have you ever asked people to count, what is the abnormal amount of gold futures?"
Zhuang Rongkun spit out a data with difficulty in his tone: "The volume of 267,000 ounces is now worth 630 million." ”
As soon as this number came out, Zhuang Qingquan's heart sank suddenly.
630 million?
Counting the abnormal delivery data during this period, it will take 135 million to be able to deliver the 267,000-ounce abnormal gold futures contract.
But now Hang Lung Bank only has 60 million Hong Kong dollars!
Hang Lung Bank's capital chain collapsed, and there was a difference of 73.5 million.
Not to mention that in addition to these abnormal gold futures contracts, Hang Lung Bank also has more than 80,000 gold futures contracts close to 90,000 ounces, which are other customers, and there is absolutely no way to deal with them if they come to delivery.
For a while, the office fell silent, Zhuang Rongkun lowered his head in shame, and his heart was full of resentment.
"Ah Kun, are you sure that the abnormal gold futures contract volume is only 267,000 ounces?"
After Zhuang Qingquan was silent, he looked at his younger brother Zhuang Rongkun with a stern face, and asked solemnly again.
Zhuang Rongkun nodded heavily: "That's right, I asked Zhao Quanhao to check when there was a problem, according to the price at that time, the buyer bought a total of 300 million Hong Kong dollars of gold futures, but now it has risen to 620 million Hong Kong dollars." ”
Zhuang Qingquan nodded, frowned and thought for a while, and said to himself: "I'm afraid that the enemy will have a backhand, otherwise we can borrow 200 million Hong Kong dollars to fill the hole, even if there is still more than 100 million yuan left, we will satisfy them after the delivery." ”
As for refusing to deliver, neither Zhuang Rongkun nor Zhuang Qingquan thought about it, or said that they thought about it but didn't dare to do it.
Maybe the secret enemy is waiting for them to refuse to deliver, and then they can directly make a big deal out of it, and if the news that Hang Lung Bank can't get the money, the matter will be big, and if you are not careful, it will be an abyss.
Of course, if he knew that the enemy had held such a large amount of gold futures contracts, Zhuang Qingquan could still refuse to exchange them, and even if there was a run, more than 500 million cash could completely suppress the turmoil.
What a big difference is in the face of an adversary, and in the face of a large number of customers.
Who knew that this enemy was such a chicken thief, boiling frogs in warm water, cutting meat little by little, and by the time they had summed it up and investigated the situation, it was already too late, and the money had already been delivered.
Now that the big heads are out, there is no need to risk the remaining small part.
It can be said that Liu Tianci calculated their psychological thoughts.
"Big brother, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be, there is no matter of making up the London gold futures contract, only me, and Zhao Quanhao know, involving such a large amount of funds, this belongs to the bank's top business secret, and it is impossible for outsiders to know. ”
"It's impossible for me to say it, I've never been drunk, as for Zhao Quanhao, it shouldn't be possible to do this, I didn't find anything strange about him. ”
Zhuang Rongkun frowned, he really couldn't figure out what went wrong.
Zhuang Qingquan looked at his distressed younger brother, and finally said: "Forget it, it's useless to think about these things now, it's better to deal with the past quickly." “
"The best thing to do now is to borrow from your peers as soon as possible and borrow a little more in case of accidents. ”
"I won't go back during this time, I'll stay here for the time being, and we'll discuss it when there is a situation. ”
"Okay, then I'll go. “
After the two brothers discussed, Zhuang Rongkun immediately took action and went to Standard Chartered Bank to borrow funds.
He is not going to HSBC and Hang Seng Bank, after all, the money for the delivery of gold futures in the past two days has been transferred into HSBC accounts, which means that more than 400 million funds have flowed from Hang Lung Bank to HSBC.
If he goes to HSBC to borrow, then it will clearly tell HSBC that there is a big problem with Hang Lung, and HSBC will never lend.
As for Hang Seng Bank, the first controlling shareholder is HSBC, and the news is all common, and it is difficult for him to borrow money from Hang Seng Bank, and it may expose the news of Hang Lung's weakness.
There are only so many big banks in Xiangjiang, such as Far Eastern Bank, Bank of China and other banks with slightly inferior strength, and they want to borrow large sums of money, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is not the first choice.
In this case, the best option is Standard Chartered Bank.
Just when Zhuang Rongkun went to Standard Chartered Bank, someone came to deliver gold futures, and Zhao Quanhao tried his best to delay time, but in the end he had no choice but to agree to deliver step by step.
In the Jiuding Bank Building, not far from Hang Lung Bank, Liu Tianci and Xia Yu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, chatting and laughing.
"Chairman, according to the report of the people who came back, Hang Lung Bank is about to lose its strength, and the amount of funds is almost exhausted. ”
"However, we still have about 300 million gold futures contracts undelivered, and it is estimated that Hang Lung Bank will not be able to get them. ”
Liu Tianci said with a chuckle.
Xia Yu smiled slightly and said: "Zhuang Rongkun can sell the London gold contract at one time and raise more than 400 million Hong Kong dollars, which is already a skill, and it is strange that he can accept all the contracts." ”
"What about K. Wah Bank, what's going on?"
Xia Yu asked again.
"Ka Wah Bank is similar, we have delivered 360 million Hong Kong dollars of gold futures contracts, and there are still 60 million undelivered, so we are almost ready to do it. ”
Liu Tianci said with a smile.
"Tuk Tuk!"
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
The two stopped talking, and Liu Tianci turned around and said, "Come in." ”
Soon the door opened, and a subordinate came in, and greeted respectfully: "Hello chairman, good general manager!"
Seeing that it was the subordinate sent to keep an eye on him, Liu Tianci came to his senses, and he immediately asked, "What did you find?"
The subordinate immediately said: "I saw Zhuang Rongkun go out just now, and then followed his car all the way, and finally saw him enter the Standard Chartered Bank, so I hurried back to report." ”
Hearing the words of their subordinates, Liu Tianci and Xia Yu both smiled.
Hang Lung Bank can't hold on, it's almost time to do it!
