Chapter 44 Insolvency

He hesitated for a moment, and before he could speak, Lao Feng said: "I think such a big drop in this crushing season has greatly damaged the vitality of the entire sugar industry, especially many cane sugar traders have suffered heavy losses this year, and sugar prices will hardly improve in a year or two." ”

Lao Zhao said: "In fact, the decline in sugar prices is also beneficial, and for downstream sugar enterprises, the cost of raw materials has dropped significantly." For example, in our factory, the cane sugar needed to produce pastries and food is much cheaper. Especially now, we have purchased a lot of sucrose when the market price is relatively low, and we have prepared enough raw materials for production at the end of the year. ”

Lao Feng said disapprenously: "You can buy it in the market at any time, why are you buying so much now? If the price of sugar falls again at the end of the year, won't you buy it expensive again?"

Lao Zhao said: "It has fallen to this point, how much more can it fall? Besides, no matter whether the price of sugar rises or falls, our factory will use so much sugar, and it is better to buy more spare when the price is relatively low now." At the current market price, we have not bought such cheap sugar in recent years. ”

Li Xin listened and asked, "Do you buy it in the futures market?"

Lao Zhao said: "That's not true, there are very few orders in the futures market, they are all speculative transactions, and they have never been delivered here." The main reason is that we have to use sugar in production at any time, which conflicts with the time limit of the delivery of the main contract, and it is inconvenient to pick up the goods in the delivery warehouse, so we buy it in the market when the price is right. ”

Li Xin nodded and said, "That's the truth." ”

In the more than an hour of opening in the morning, more than 600 contracts of T709 contracts were traded, the trading volume was very small, and the price fluctuated back and forth in the range of more than 20 points.

Li Xin decided to start buying, he asked for an order, filled in the date, and filled in 200 lots in the order quantity column, and the order price column was written "less than 3240".

Although Li Xin believes that it is unlikely that the contract will be sniped by opponents at the current price, he feels that he should still be careful. So after filling out the list and signing his name, he got up and called Zhang Jin out of the door.

"Is there something wrong?" Zhang Jin asked as he felt a little strange.

Li Xin handed him the list in his hand and said: "Today, you help me buy and open 200 hands on the T709 contract, the price is below 3240, this is the order I filled, I didn't write a specific number in the price column, you can see the actual situation and help me fill it in after the transaction." ”

Zhang Jin smiled and said, "Okay, isn't it very simple, why don't you say it in the office, it's so mysterious?"

Li Xin said: "There are too many people in the office, and the trading volume of this contract is relatively small, so I am afraid of attracting the attention of others. ”

Zhang Jin said, "Oh, I see. ”

Li Xin continued: "When buying, you don't want to report all 200 lots at once, you have to buy separately, 20 lots at a time, and the time interval is a little wider, so that there will be no price fluctuations." ”

Zhang Jin said, "I know. ”

Li Xin told again: "I just know about buying and opening positions, don't mention it to other customers and other people in the trading seat, so as not to become a target!"

Zhang Jin said: "Don't worry, it won't!"

Li Xin said, "That's it, you help me watch and buy, I'll go first." After that, he went downstairs and left.

Li Xin returned to the company's office, and as soon as she sat down, Xia Xiaona asked, "How is the price of sugar on the exchange this morning?"

Li Xin picked up the cup and walked to the water dispenser, and said while receiving the water: "Until I left, the price was about the same as the one faxed yesterday, and there was not much change." ”

Xia Xiaona said, "Oh. ”

Li Xin felt a little strange, returned to his seat after taking the water, and asked, "You usually don't care about futures prices, why did you think of asking this today?"

Xia Xiaona said: "It's okay, just ask casually." ”

Li Xinshen's mysterious actions made her very puzzled. The company has now come to this point, and the whole company is panicking, and he will run to the exchange if he has nothing to do, what is the plan?

In private, she heard someone talking about Li Xin making sugar futures, which seemed to be true.

Li Xin didn't pay attention to Xia Xiaona's somewhat puzzled gaze, his mind was now completely on the futures price.

This time, he opened a position and bought 200 hands at once, and then there were 400 positions to buy at the right time, and such a large position made his spirit immediately shift from the previous nothingness to a state of imminent battle like he was on the edge of the abyss and walking on thin ice.

The sudden increase in psychological pressure made Li Xin's heart feel lonely.

He needed a kind of warmth and support, but that was exactly what he couldn't hope for right now.

In recent days, Li Xin faintly felt that Li Ying's attitude towards herself had changed somewhat, from the previous warmth to the cold last night, which made Li Xin very disappointed.

Why in the end, Li Xin didn't want to think about it. But when Li Xin was under a lot of mental pressure, she was not around, and that feeling of loneliness made Li Xin's heart fall and she was very depressed.

Xu Li's strange absence of news also made Li Xin a little depressed, she didn't see her several times when she went to the futures exchange, and she didn't call back when she called her pager, she couldn't figure out if she was on a business trip or something else, and it was inconvenient to ask others.

Li Xin couldn't help but suspect for a while, is he sick? Or is he not doing futures here? Then it won't disappear without saying hello!

The two of them are the people Li Xin relies on and is willing to confide in, and this dependence and confiding is not only physiological, but also psychological.

Li Xin is a person who takes everything to heart, and the more important the matter, the more he will not easily confide in half a word.

It is precisely because of his character that in the process of contact, Li Ying and Xu Li feel more Li Xin's infatuation with their bodies, and it is difficult to perceive Li Xin's psychological release and silent confiding in this process.

On the way home from work, Li Xin, who was walking alone on the sidewalk under the sunset, felt extremely lonely in his heart.

Early the next morning, when Li Xin, who was worried about the transaction of yesterday's order, came to the exchange office early, there were still more than 20 minutes before leaving the market, and other customers had not yet come.

She saw Li Xin come in and said, "You came very early today." ”

Li Xin said: "Thinking about yesterday's order, I came over early to see, have they all been sold?

"It's all sold, you see, in the price column, I calculated the average price of a deal and filled it in. Wang Hong said, took out the order form written by Li Xin yesterday from the drawer and handed it to him.

Li Xin took it and took a look at it and said, "The average transaction price is 3228, which is good!"

Wang Hong asked: "How do you open a position on a long-month contract with a very small trading volume? Your list is in trouble, and it was divided into ten reports yesterday." If you open a position on the main contract with a large current trading volume, you will be closed in one session. ”

Li Xin said: "The contract price of the far month is more advantageous. ”

Wang Hong said: "But the contract position this month is too small, and the possibility of price fluctuations is also very large, so you are not afraid of being targeted by others?"

Li Xin said: "Yes, there is also such a possibility, I have considered this." ”

At this moment, Zhang Jin walked in, saw Li Xin, and said, "Yesterday's orders have been sold, have you seen it?"

Li Xin said: "Wang Hong showed me, and the price of the transaction was good. Today, I will buy another 200 lots like this, and the price will still be below 3240. ”

Zhang Jin said: "Okay, I know, it's better to separate the time and buy separately, right?"

Li Xin said while filling out the order: "Yes, that's what it means." ”

Zhang Jin took the list handed over by Li Xin and said, "There is so much news about buying so much this time?"

Li Xin said: "There is no news, but I really think the price is a bit low." If you're interested, I suggest you buy some as well. ”

Zhang Jin smiled and said, "Forget it, I'll still be a bystander!"

Wang Hong listened next to her and didn't speak, but Li Xin noticed that when she heard that she had opened a position to buy 200 lots again today, there was a look of surprise on her face.

Li Xin asked Zhang Jin: "As far as you know, have there been any recent movements of these sugar factories that have opened accounts on the exchange?"

Zhang Jin said: "There doesn't seem to be anything special, the trading volume of these sugar factories is not much, and after seeing that the sugar factory we talked about last time is losing so much money, they are more cautious when making orders." ”

After Li Xin listened to Zhang Jin's words, she felt a trace of worry in her heart.

Although these trading seats in the exchange, as the old saying goes, peers are enemies, a competitive relationship, and there is still a competition for customers, but after all, they are in the same hall and are too close to each other.

The information of other trading seats can be transmitted to Zhang Jin and them, and Zhang Jin's information here will definitely be transmitted to other trading seats.

The move of holding so many positions in the T709 contract may have been known to passers-by for a long time.

Alas, this is also a helpless thing, you know it, or at your own pace, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, find an opportunity to establish the remaining one-third of the position.

Just as Xia Xiaona thought in her heart, among all the people in the company, only Li Xin was completely beyond the company's dismal operating conditions.

The rest of the people were more or less restless because of this.

Here, the most pressure is none other than Wu Bin, the general manager of the company.

As the general manager of the company, Wu Bin has seen the company's deterioration for several months, and the pressure on his heart has become more and more intense. The leaders in the hall have specially asked him for a detailed understanding of the situation several times, and the company has come to this point, and he, the general manager, is inseparable.

The company's current true situation is still kept secret from ordinary employees, although everyone has heard some rumors, but it is still gossip.

But even so, the phenomenon of people's hearts fluctuating among the employees is already obvious, especially after the complete suspension of the business, the whole company staff stay in the office and do nothing, gossip and chat, he can't help but worry about what chaos will happen one day.

What would happen to the company if the truth was revealed?

A year ago, the company was good, but now it has reached the point where it can't even pay salaries, what will happen to the lives of these dozens of employees in the future?

The huge mental pressure and guilt made him frown all day long.

After dinner that day, he was sitting in the living room watching TV, when he suddenly felt suffocated and out of breath, and just wanted to stand up, his eyes went dark and he fainted.

The family immediately called an ambulance and took him to the hospital for first aid.
