Night, almost midnight.

The building where Goldman Sachs is located is quiet, except for the staff on duty, the other employees have basically gone home from work.

Different from the silence in the corridor, in the No. 2 trading room, the show has just begun.

On the three microcomputer systems, professional and technical means have been used to link the three major stock markets in the United States. Lines of numbers are constantly jumping, although there is a certain delay, but the current result is the ultimate that can be achieved in this era.

Guo Yongkun stood behind the three operators, patiently watching the various changes on the screen, and was not in a hurry to give orders.

He is going to short next Monday's US stocks, and today has only one purpose - to open a short position. Then, the best time to do it is definitely when the stock market is about to close. Often, at this time, transactions are the most frequent and irrational.

After all, three billion US dollars is not a small amount, and the target of shorting is basically blue chips, entering the market too early and selling a large number of them, which is difficult to ensure that it will attract the attention of some people, thus bringing unnecessary variables.

As for the moment, paying attention to the changes in the U.S. stock market is also to feel the tranquility before the financial tsunami.

He did not personally experience the global financial crisis of 1987. At this time in his last life, he had just joined the work not long ago, and he was still holding an iron rice bowl in the government unit.

Such a world-class financial crisis is of great value for analysis and learning, and is of great benefit to the accumulation of one's own experience and experience.

"Yongkun, when will you do it?" Chen Dashao next to him yawned repeatedly.

"Don't worry, you can't stay up and get some sleep first. Guo Yongkun pointed to a recliner on the side of the wall, it must be an all-nighter tonight.

Chen Dashao nodded, "Then I'm really asleep." ”

He's been really tired lately, and he's running out of money.

Outside the door, in an office diagonally across the corridor, a man and a woman were also tired, and their coffee was refilled.

"I don't know what time to go. Wen Caini lay limply on the fabric sofa.

"Hopefully soon. David squinted at her, his eyes wandering over her long legs that had taken off her shoes and were on the coffee table. "I don't know if I really understand it or not, and I have to personally command the operation. ”

The company has a rule that the relevant person in charge must accompany the customer while he is still there.

"Well, speaking of which, I have something to ask you. Wen Caini said suddenly.

"What?"

"Do you think there is anything special about this Mr. Guo?"

"Special?"

After thinking about it, David replied: "He looks quite handsome, and the other ...... It feels a bit brain-dead. ”

"That's where I wondered. Wen Caini said, "I don't know much about him, but I still know a little about Chen Ziang." You should also know that he is the prince of the Bole Group, but he does not work in the family business, but runs other industries by himself, which can be regarded as impressive, and he is definitely not the kind of person who has no head and no brains.

And he was over thirty years old. But didn't you notice that he respected this Mr. Guo very much, and even ...... It's a bit of a follower. The other party is obviously younger than him, as for the background and financial resources, I don't believe that he can be stronger than Chen Ziang, this person has never heard of it. Don't you think it's weird?"

"Listen to you...... It seems to be true. David mused.

"Chen Ziang told me a sentence that I haven't been able to understand until now. ”

"Oh, tell me?"

He said that he and I are both ordinary people, and the other party, Mr. Guo, is a non-human being. ”

"......" David was stunned and quipped, "Monster?"

Wen Caini glanced at him angrily and said, "My understanding is that this Mr. Guo is definitely so outstanding that a top young man like Chen Ziang respects him from the bottom of his heart." However, as for what is so powerful about him, I still haven't seen it after so long contact. ”

David thought for a moment and said, "You said him so amazingly, shouldn't he really have two brushes, is it right to short U.S. stocks this time?"

"How is that possible!"

Wen Caini glared and said: "What is the market of the US stocks, who knows better than us, staring at the market every day." And if you look at the stocks he shorted, they are all among the best blue chips. If this can be successfully shorted by him, unless there is only one possibility......"

"The stock market crashed, and there was a stock market crash. David answered.

Wen Caini nodded, and was about to reply to something, when the door was pushed open, and a voice came, "What kind of horror story are you two telling in the middle of the night?"

A tall, thin, slightly gray-haired, middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses walked in.

David and Wen Caini hurriedly got up and shouted at the same time, "Mr. Lu is good." ”

Lu Xiwen is a senior vice president of Goldman Sachs in Hong Kong.

Lu Xiwen smiled and waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to be polite, and asked, "Why are you still in the company so late?"

"Mr. Lu, aren't you here, we learn from you. Wen Caini had a pair of peach blossom eyes and smiled widely.

This is a boss of eight hundred, and it is usually difficult to see each other, but I didn't expect to take the initiative to find the door tonight. If you can get his appreciation, you will definitely make steady progress in the company in the future.

"Mr. Lu, you have a lot of opportunities, you may not know that we have recently taken over a business, saying that it is not big or small. David explained: "No, the customer asked him to keep an eye on the command, and he was in the No. 2 operation room, of course we couldn't go." ”

Lu Xiwen understood this and asked, "How big is the international stock speculation?"

In the company, he is a well-known workaholic, he will not get off work until the early hours of the morning, and then arrive at the company on time at eight o'clock in the morning, rain or shine.

It is precisely because of this hard work and hard work that he can become the only Chinese among the company's several big bosses.

"Three billion dollars. ”

"How much?"

Lu Xiwen was stunned, glanced at David, and said in his heart, Are you floating, three billion US dollars, big or not, not small?

David knew that he had misunderstood, and quickly explained, "That's the case, Mr. Lu, the margin is actually only 150 million US dollars, and he has made 20 times leverage. ”

Lu Xiwen sighed, and said that if it was really a deposit of three billion US dollars, there was no reason why he didn't know about such a big order.

"Hundreds of millions of dollars, and dare to do 20 times leverage, who is it, what stocks are speculated?"

"The young man who is really in charge, surnamed Guo, is a bit mysterious, and we haven't figured out what his identity is, accompanied by the prince of the Bole Group, Chen Ziang. It's U.S. stocks. ”

"Bole Group?" Lu Xiwen was slightly stunned, with his identity, the social circle is naturally not small, and he has some friendship with Chen Lao of Bole Group. However, there is no business dealings, and the main Chen Lao is a typical industrialist, and even some reject capital operation.

Unexpectedly, his son actually entered his own trading room.

"Huh, by the way, you just said 'do U.S. stocks'?" Lu Xiwen captured an important point.

David nodded, "That's right, they want to short U.S. stocks." ”

"Short U.S. stocks? 150 million margin, 20 times leverage, 3 billion US dollars, short U.S. stocks?"

Lu Xiwen was surprised, did he eat the bear's heart leopard gall?

Stock trading, and shorting, are two completely different concepts. The main thing here is the risk level, although there will be profits and losses in stock trading, but it will not be lost all at once, and if it is long-term, even if there is a temporary loss, it is difficult to say in the future.

Shorting can be different. Shorting is more like betting, winning is winning, and losing is fine.

150 million US dollars is not a small amount, and people who have a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars in these years are billionaires who can see the newspaper when they go there, and they are full of gold.

Two little young people playing so big?

He decided to meet the two of them, and he and Old Man Chen also had a good time, and they were respectful, and they couldn't watch each other's juniors jump into the fire pit.

With the current U.S. stock market, it is really irrational to go short, let alone use 20 times leverage.

Anyway, the margin has been collected, and there will be no loss of the company's interests, and if they really want to play, they can change to a general operation, and they can even recommend them a few stocks.

"By the way, is there a short-selling plan here?"

"Nope. David shook his head, "I don't know the specific short-selling plan, including the capital ratio, they want to operate it themselves, and I just help them borrow some shares in advance." ”

"Which shares?" Lu Xiwen asked.

David hurried over to his desk, took a copy of the paperwork, and handed it to him. When Lu Xiwen saw it, his face turned blue. "Nonsense!"

Even if you have money, you can't be so capricious, oh, and you still pick blue chips to short?

Isn't this looking for death!

How did he know that the blue-chip Guo Yongkun remembered it clearly.

There was a knock at the door, and a trader glanced at Guo Yongkun, and after seeing him nodding, he got up and ran to open the door.

Anyway, we haven't done it yet, and everyone is quite idle.

"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu!"

Guo Yongkun heard the voice, turned around, and saw a tall and thin middle-aged man he had never seen before, and cast a questioning glance at the other party.

After Lu Xiwen nodded for a while, his eyes unconsciously glanced at the side of the wall, good guy, playing with three billion dollars of plates, are you still in the mood to sleep here?

That's how big the heart is.

Lu Xiwen paced over and pushed a few handfuls of a dead pig, "Chen Ziang, Chen Ziang......"

Chen Dashao's anger exploded instantly, and he sat up from the recliner suddenly, "Who are you!"

"I'm a friend of Old Chen. ”

“......”

That can't be hit.

Chen Dashao's drowsiness also woke up instantly. He didn't know that here at Goldman Sachs, he could still bump into the old man's friend. However, then again, the old man has so many friends that he can't know them all.

"You probably don't remember, when you got married, I went to drink. ”

I'll go, that's really a bit of a friendship. Chen Dashao quickly stood up, saluted, and said, 'Hello uncle'.

After learning that the other party was actually the vice president of Goldman Sachs, Chen Dashao smiled bitterly, "Uncle Lu, you said earlier, why did I find someone below?"

"You didn't ask the point. ”

Chen Dashao really didn't ask the old man about this, mainly because he knew that the old man was not interested in capital operation, but he didn't expect him to have connections in this area.

Of course, there is another point, if you go directly to the senior management of Goldman Sachs, how can Wen Caini get it?

"Ziang, I heard that you plan to short U.S. stocks, and you need to use twenty times leverage?" After a few simple greetings, Lu Xiwen restrained his smile and asked with a straight face.

"This," Chen Dashao scratched his head and said, "It's not my idea, if you ask him, I'm a soy sauce maker." ”

said, pointing to Guo Yongkun.

"Who is this?"

"Guo Yongkun. Since he is a friend of Old Man Chen, Guo Yongkun is also willing to give some respect.

However, Lu Xiwen had never heard of this name at all.

"My dad's year-old friend. Chen Dashao spoke at the right time.

"Oh?" As soon as he heard this, Lu Xiwen had to look at Guo Yongkun differently.

It is precisely because of their unremitting efforts that Chinese capital can rise strongly in Hong Kong City, break the pattern of all-round monopoly of British capital, and even oppose the acquisition of British-funded enterprises.

There is no mistake
