Chapter Seventy-One: The Arrangement That Was Recognized

(Bow and thank you for the monthly pass support of "American Alliance Xiaodaren" and "Book Friends 19185479"!)

"Mr. Zhou Ming, everything is as you expected, just now, the futures prices of light crude oil and heavy crude oil have begun to fall, although the specific process is still a little repetitive, but the overall is still continuing to fall!"

The excitement of Sun Wei's voice was transmitted to everyone's headphones in the conference room of Wharton Company through the phone, although everyone here knew that Zhou Ming was not such a talkative person, but when they heard the news from the exchange, they still made Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov a little surprised, because the news was really unexpected.

Sitting here today, there is no one who does not understand financial futures, Lin Muqing and Tong Gang and Li Chengcheng needless to say, as the financial center of the East, no matter what their main business is, if they want to become bigger and stronger on that land, it is certainly impossible to not understand finance and not get involved in finance; after all, if the way of simply relying on products to make money and then expanding the scale is too cumbersome to keep up with the trend of the capital economy era, there is only one in ten thousand that can become bigger.

Even Ilbedov, who came from North Russia, as a Jew and a banker, was almost instinctive in business, and coupled with the capitalization of North Russia since the collapse of the Soviet Union, there was no reason why he, the richest man in North Russia, did not understand what futures were.

But it is precisely because they understand that they will be even more confused, because with the breakdown of negotiations between Iraq and Kuwait, the situation in the Middle East tends to deteriorate, and the market will be worried about the future crude oil production in the Middle East.

But you must know that this is not a stock, and any company that is in a bad situation will quickly make a move, and this is oil that can be sold at any time! No matter how you look at it, the more worried you are, the more you buy.

Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov were all very confused, Tong Gang held the headset and asked, "Manager Sun, did you receive any special news from the exchange?"

Of course, Sun Wei understood what Tong Gang meant by asking, and he replied: "Mr. Tong Gang, the exchange has not received any special news, and the reason why the price of crude oil fell was the result of many investment companies shorting crude oil at the same time twenty minutes ago. Their short-selling contracts were very large, worth a billion dollars, so it caused panic in the market, and many investment companies followed up with short-selling, which caused the price to continue to fall. ”

"What company or consortium is shorting crude oil? And using so much money. Tong Gang immediately asked.

"Mr. Tong Gang, due to time constraints, I can't check the affiliation of each company, but as far as I can check the results just now, five of them are affiliated with the Brighton consortium, and the other companies I think should also have a lot to do with the Brighton consortium. Sun Wei guessed.

"What? The Brighton consortium is also shorting crude oil?"

Tong Gang and Li Cheng Ilbedov were a little surprised by this, and they all looked at Zhou Ming.

Facing the surprised eyes of the three of them, Zhou Ming just smiled slightly, and said to Sun Wei: "Okay, I know, thank you Manager Sun, if there is any new situation on the exchange, you must get in touch with me immediately." ”

Sun Wei replied yes and then hung up the phone with Zhou Ming's permission, and after Sun Wei hung up the phone, Zhou Ming said to Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov: "I just said that they will not be indifferent, if they don't lower the price of crude oil as much as possible before the plan, then the follow-up benefits will be much less; ”

Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov nodded silently, Li Cheng suddenly thought of a question, and he asked Zhou Ming: "It's just one point, why is there only one Brighton consortium? Didn't the Gulf Plan be jointly initiated by Brighton and Rockefeller? I think Sun Wei, no matter how insufficient his news channels are, so many companies are selling short, he can always find out the companies that belong to the Rockefeller consortium, right?"

"It's a problem, but it's easy to explain. Zhou Ming said, "Either there is an agreement between the two consortiums of Brighton and Rockefeller that we don't know about, or it is aimed at me." ”

"Why did you say that, Mr. Zhou Ming?" Ilbedov asked anxiously, and Tong Gang and Li Cheng also cast suspicious glances at Zhou Ming.

If it was someone else, they would definitely say that he was a little too arrogant, but Zhou Ming, they believed that it was very likely, and the current suspicion was just that they simply wanted to know why.

"Quite simply, just because I offended Robert Adams, that's all. ”

Zhou Ming said, and then Zhou Ming recounted the matter of Catelyn coming to him: "That's it, in fact, I don't trust this Princess Catelyn very much, so I need to determine what kind of influence that Mr. Robert has." ”

Ilbedov nodded abruptly and said, "I see, if that Mr. Robert is really targeting you, then when you start short selling, he will definitely buy desperately, right?"

Zhou Ming shook his head and said, "No, on the contrary, I would think that he would definitely sell short." ”

"Why is that?" Ilbedov was very surprised, not only him, but Tong Gang and Li Cheng also looked at Zhou Ming with puzzled eyes, hoping to get an answer.

"The reason is not complicated, just because this Mr. Robert is not yet the head of the Addams family. Zhou Ming said.

The people present were all smart people, and although Zhou Ming's answer only said a beginning, they already understood everything.

Because Robert is not the head of the Addams family, he can't control the overall situation in real time, so he can only make arrangements in advance.

Then he clearly knows that Zhou Ming is coming for the Gulf plan, so when the situation in the Middle East changes, he thinks that Zhou Ming will definitely enter the market as soon as possible to go long prices, so he will do the opposite, through continuous short selling to create market panic and let the price fall. This will not only cause direct losses to Zhou Ming, but also make Zhou Ming's judgment of the situation doubtful, and when Iraq and Kuwait really fight, they will miss the opportunity, so it will be even better!

In addition, his own move is also beneficial to the Gulf plan, and the executor of the family will not oppose it, so that he can retaliate against the opponent without any hindrance, of course he will do it.

It must be said that there is nothing wrong with Robert's idea, and his only mistake is to choose the wrong opponent.

Zhou Ming has completely recognized all this, and made temporary adjustments, and as a result, Robert's arrangement has made Zhou Ming earn more.

If Robert knew all this, I am afraid he would be so angry that he would jump off the building, but what is even more terrifying is how Zhou Ming can calculate all this so clearly, this idea made Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov swallow a mouthful of saliva subconsciously.

Zhou Ming looked at the expressions of Tong Gang, Li Cheng and Ilbedov, and knew that they had already understood, and they were shocked by their own calculations, but in fact, as Zhou Ming said before, he was just testing the water, he didn't know whether Robert would have the ability to target himself, he could only throw more than 10 million yuan into the water first, who knew that it was such a coincidence, and he really ran into it? Zhou Ming was also very helpless.

This time Li Cheng stood up and said: "But no matter what, this is always a good start." So little brother Zhou Ming, now that we know Robert's thoughts, do we want to continue next?"

"Of course you have to continue, don't you make money if you don't make a bastard?" Zhou Ming said, "And I think there should be more good news in the future." ”

As if it were a prophecy, when Zhou Ming's words fell, the phone on the conference table rang again, and Lin Muqing answered it as soon as possible.

"Mr. Zhou Ming, I just received the news that Kuwait announced that according to the OPEC resolution, they will increase their production of crude oil by 100,000 barrels per day starting tomorrow. Sun Wei said on the other end of the phone.

This news surprised Tong Gang, Li Cheng, and Ilbedov, but they didn't say anything, but they all looked at Zhou Ming in unison, waiting to hear his thoughts. This made Zhou Ming very helpless, he really regarded himself as a leader, although this feeling is very good, but the pressure is also very great.

Zhou Ming thought so and asked, "What is the market's reaction?"

"The reaction of the market is very positive, it seems that there are more short sellers, and it is estimated that the price of crude oil will continue to fall in the future. Sun Wei said.

"What about the current price?" Zhou Ming asked again.

"The price of light crude oil is now $16.59 per barrel and the price of heavy crude oil is $15.16 per barrel. Sun Wei replied.

Listening to this answer, Zhou Ming silently calculated in his heart and then said: "In this way, as long as the price of light crude oil falls below $15 per barrel, and the price of heavy crude oil falls below $14.4 per barrel, no matter what the market is at that time, I will be cleared immediately, all of them will be cleared, and then before half past four in the afternoon, all the orders will be completed, you know?"

Sun Wei could hear the seriousness of Zhou Ming's tone, and he also became nervous: "Please rest assured Mr. Zhou Ming, I promise to complete the task!"

Hanging up Sun Wei's phone, Zhou Ming raised his head and said, "Everyone is in a hurry, right? ”

……

Meanwhile, in the Adams family's castle villa in the north, Robert also heard the exchange market and he jumped for joy.

"This is really exciting good news! I didn't expect Kuwait to be so cooperative, and it also increased the production of 100,000 barrels of crude oil per day, I think it will definitely fall below $14 before the end of the auction today, right? Such a big drop, I think those Chinese must have lost miserably, right?"

Robert laughed and said that Caitlin didn't say a word about his behavior, just looked at him with a sneer.

Robert didn't want to deal with Caitlin, but the next words of an accountant who had a good relationship with him made him angry, and the accountant said: "I'm afraid Mr. Robert is not like this, because if the information you gave me is correct, that Chinese is not long today, and he is also short selling crude oil prices like us." ”

Robert's eyes widened at this, and he turned his angry gaze to Caitlin, who was still sitting in the upper seat, and asked her, "Did you already know about this?"

Caitlin sneered and nodded yes, and Robert asked again so loudly that it was almost growling, "Then why didn't you tell me?"

Caitlyn still replied coldly, "Because you didn't ask me." ”

Robert stood up from his position suddenly, and then walked towards Caitlin, but was stopped by Caitlin's black bodyguard, Robert then remembered Caitlin's current side, he glared at Caitlin, and gritted his teeth and said to her: "Okay, you Harusburg bitch, you dare to play with me like this, you make me very angry, don't think that Harrusburg and your brain can be a talisman for you." ”

Robert said word for word at the end: "You wait for me, and one day, I will strip you of your clothes and let you serve me in the most shameful posture, as I said to you on the first day you came to the Addams family, no, it will be more interesting than that." ”

In the face of Robert's threat, Caitlyn still sat there, just looking at him proudly, indicating that she would never give in!
