Chapter 181: Happiness Passing by the Pit
Boss, if we make a move now... A total of 717,700 ounces, with a profit of $22 per ounce, a total profit of $15,789,400, and a profit rate of more than 31 percent. ”
In the office, Smith Jama took out his phone and did a quick calculation, and told Arthur the data.
Although it is far from being compared with the profit of 100 times the leverage at the first time, it is more reassuring, after all, 100 times the leverage, ups and downs are a kind of stimulus, and if you encounter such an unknown prospect now, it is not entangled to death.
Arthur looked at Angela and Smith Jama who were looking at him, frowned and hesitated for a moment, but finally reason prevailed over the gamble, "Since the future is uncertain, then throw it away, settle for safety, and wait and see." ”
"Okay, boss, I'll go and throw it away right away. Smith Jama did not hesitate, since the boss has made a decision, it is necessary to race against time to throw away the gold in his hand in the high price range, one time at a time, no one knows what kind of changes will occur in the next moment.
Looking at the back of Smith walking away quickly, Arthur shook his head at Angela, who was sitting opposite, and smiled: "You can never earn as much as you spend." ”
"Hehe, you are not called spending, but investment, luxury cars, yachts, private jets are luxury consumption, but you do not have these indiscriminate consumption, your consumption is very rational, very admirable, you know, most people in the beginning of the huge wealth, will be more or less unbalanced, there is revenge xing consumption. ”
"No, no, in fact, I also had revenge xing consumption, I bought a third-rate football club that played in League One. Arthur raised an eyebrow and teased.
"Haha... ”
Angela and Arthur looked at each other and laughed together, this stalk Angela knows, since Arthur's football LIU busy identity was exposed, coupled with the status of nobles, earldoms, and billionaires, he has become the target of ridicule and ridicule by various media, of course, there is no shortage of media with evil intentions, saying that he bought the Saints, in fact, it is a kind of nouveau riche revenge xing consumption, because the funds are not allowed, and he can't afford to buy a first-class team in the Premier League, so he has to buy a third-rate club to satisfy.
"You say I should buy a few newspapers, but during this time, I let them ridicule it. Arthur proposed, half-jokingly, half-seriously.
Angela smiled and shook her head and said: "Boss, this is not a good idea, newspapers and periodicals are already part of the sunset industry, and there is no light at all, and the British print media news group is dominant, so there is no need to invest in it."
Television and mobile Internet media can be considered, TV is the main channel for the British people to obtain information, but only a few TV stations, LI TV and the BBC occupy an absolute dominant position.
As for the internet ... Can you imagine that only 63 per cent of UK households in the UK have a broadband connection, compared to 56 per cent in 2008. The number of people online in the UK this year is 37.4 million, just over half of the country's total population, up 10% from 2008.
The 16 to 24-year-old age group has the highest number of people online, with 96 per cent of people in this age group doing so. But they have a new tool, smartphones.
Mobile Internet media, I think it is very promising, especially the popularity of smart phones like crazy mobile phones, mobile Internet media will be the future, for this I also checked some information, for example, in 2007, statistics from the British Bureau of Statistics showed that the number of people using wireless hotspots to access the network was 700,000. This year, that number has increased to 2.5 million. ”
"Oh, it's really surprising and satisfying at the same time, I didn't expect you to have such a wealth of knowledge. Arthur's eyes flashed with a flash of brilliance, and he was really surprised to admire.
"This is my job, in order to better serve you, and solve problems, and make suggestions, I, an investment and financial consultant, naturally have to take the initiative to understand a variety of industries that can earn money and have investment prospects, and when you ask, I can give you a complete and detailed answer, instead of having to find everything afterwards, in that case, I think my chief consultant is undoubtedly derelict in his duties. ”
Angela explained to Arthur with a soft and indifferent smile on her face, with confidence and calmness.
Arthur didn't say anything, nodded with a satisfied smile, he likes people who are prepared, if he really doesn't know anything every time, and now he is telling him afterwards, then Arthur will not hesitate to fire the other party, what he wants is an extremely professional professional think tank consultant, not a fool who can use Google to look up information.
"Hehe, to be honest, I had the idea of buying two London newspapers as mouthpieces, but now it doesn't seem to make sense. Arthur shook his head with a smile and sighed.
"Actually, there is no problem if you want to buy it, the key is that the newspaper is more than 100 years old, and the price is very cheap, and there is no high debt, which can reduce the losses that you may incur when you operate the newspaper, but this kind of newspaper is difficult to find. ”
"What do you think of the film industry?" Arthur suggested curiously again.
“。。。 Then you can only go to the United States and Hollywood, and the risk is also very large, after all, the six major Hollywood companies have basically occupied most of the market, and there is no place where small film companies can get ahead. When it's okay to play with interest. ”
“。。。。。。 Arthur was speechless and could only shake his head and laugh awkwardly.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Arthur, who was having afternoon tea, received a call from Smith, who reported to him the sale of gold, deducting interest and all kinds of expenses, and finally only 14.56 million US dollars were in his pocket.
But think about it, it's really good, after all, it's only a few days, and you can earn such a huge amount of money, if you still feel too little, it's really too much.
Especially on the morning of the next day, seeing the "ugly" unemployment data in the United States and the fall in crude oil and gold prices, Arthur couldn't help but be glad that he did not hesitate yesterday and decisively threw out the London gold in his hand.
Before the U.S. stock market opened on the 24th, U.S. time, the U.S. Department of Labor released a report showing that as of the week, the number of first-time jobless claims in the United States increased by more than 10,000 to 531,000, exceeding the expectation of an increase of 4,000 to 515,000. Based on this, the U.S. financial industry believes that the road to economic recovery in the United States is not smooth.
Suppressed by this bearishness, coupled with a slight rebound in the US dollar index, international commodity futures prices showed a downward trend. London gold also fell as the price of gold futures fell 0.93% to $1,054.60 an ounce after the New York Mercantile Exchange opened.
Looking at the London gold trend chart on the computer monitor, Arthur was sincerely glad and happy and wise about his decision to set up an investment and financial advisory group.
If you don't sell it yesterday, even if you don't have a loss from the price of London gold now, you will also lose all your profits, and if you count the time consumed and the leveraged interest paid, it will undoubtedly be a loss.
Therefore, this reversal is positive, this time the profit is rich, of course, what makes Arthur the happiest, happy is that he has avoided the thunder and jumped over the pit.
It's really a beautiful mood!
THIS MADE ARTHUR SMILE FROM EAR TO EAR, AND HIS THOUGHTS SWELLED, HIS FINGERS TAPPING ON THE KEYBOARD, AND BEFORE LUNCH, HE OFFICIALLY COMPLETED THE STORY CONTENT OF THE FIRST THREE SEASONS OF "BOLLING MANOR".
"Whew-"
After Arthur clicked on save the document, he let out a long sigh of relief, finally threw away a burden on his body for the time being, looked at the time, picked up his mobile phone, and found the phone number of the producer of DU Li TV's "Boleyn Manor" and dialed it.
The phone was quickly connected, and the two politely greeted each other for a while before getting down to business, and the other party was very happy to hear that Arthur had finished the creation, and hoped that Arthur would send him the full draft as soon as possible, so that the editor could complete the script.
"Mr. Masat, though a little presumptuous, there is one thing I would like you to ask for your favor. Hehe, here's the thing, my sister and a friend, also studying acting, graduated from the London Drama Centre, and have participated in some student short films and soap operas, do you think you can get them to join the crew of "Boleyn Manor" as well?
Of course, I won't embarrass you, you don't need any too important role... Okay, there's no problem with the mirror, so let's do it, the day after tomorrow on the 26th, I'll invite you to dinner, and we'll meet and talk, how about it?"
Although he is begging someone to do something, Arthur will not be discouraged and beg for mercy, even if he and Du Li TV are fair cooperative relations, but if he can't even meet the small request of two people to join the crew, then Arthur doesn't mind embarrassing them in the future.
I don't have to play some important roles unreasonably, just some small roles, if the other party still wants to continue to cooperate, he will definitely not refuse Arthur's small request.
