Chapter 148: Collapse (4/4)
Even if the sky fell now, little Edward didn't want to pay attention to it, and shouted: "I'm busy, I'll talk about it later!"
After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone, turned off the phone casually, and a mountain of meat pressed down again.
Although Ye Dongqing had already warned him, this guy didn't take it seriously, a fluctuation of a few percent was relatively large in a normal time period, but it was nothing recently.
The bears have suffered heavy losses recently, and there are institutions that have compensated more than one billion US dollars, which is only the loss of institutions, and the losses of some big countries are serious, and they began to go short frantically after the oil price climbed to thirty-five US dollars, trying to make up for the losses, but the fact is that the more they lose, the more they lose, but this force is relatively strong, and Ye Dongqing belongs to the kind of small role with average strength among them.
Given the global volume of crude oil traded, a market of this magnitude can only be played between countries, and it is surprising that oil-poor countries would be happy to lose a lot of money due to rising oil prices.
Recently, oil prices have risen so much that there have been news that many oil tankers are reluctant to enter the port for customs declaration and hope that oil prices will continue to rise, trying to sell more money, and many individuals and companies have really succeeded, as if entering a carnival feast.
Oil is too important, the world's main source of transportation power is done through it, those countries with too much oil to use up, just by selling oil can become developed countries, there are transportation, tariffs, processing, sales and other additional factors affect the price, and finally pass on to the huge number of consumers.
Because of the rise in oil prices, along with the recent turmoil in the international financial market and the global stock exchange market, it has directly led to the decision of taxi operators in New York to increase the starting price, which has not yet been really implemented, but there are already signs of it.
In Little Edward's eyes, Ye Dongqing is not that important, otherwise he would not unilaterally tear up the contract and scatter the previous promises like a fart.
He felt that Ye Dongqing was simply lucky, and entered the right market at the right time, as he said before, he himself made money through crude oil futures, making more money than Ye Dongqing, and he didn't need to pay attention to anything, and his heart had already swelled to look like a fat man of two hundred and seventy pounds......
The afternoon slipped away from bed, and when little Edward decided to go to another friend's birthday party, he remembered to focus on his business.
turned on the phone and called the assistant back, and the other party's tone was almost crying: "Clark has been asking me to find you, let you make up your mind, now there are thirty-two dollars a barrel left in the price of crude oil futures in New York, I don't know why, it suddenly fell like this, your bodyguard doesn't know where you are, what should I do now?"
"Thirty-two dollars? Are you sure it's thirty-two dollars?! I remember thirty-seven in the morning, hell!"
Little Edward heard a scream like a pig, and almost 300 million dollars slipped away like this, where can he still be calm.
"No one knows what's going on, countless orders have smashed into the market, and it has fallen by four dollars and thirty cents in more than an hour, and it has been falling! The resignation letter is on your desk, I am really looking for you everywhere, I don't need you to say it, I resign myself......"
Unlike the depressed little Edward.
Ye Dongqing was sitting alone in a restaurant on Fifth Avenue, ordering a bottle of the best champagne to celebrate.
So far, the profit is as high as hundreds of millions, and the price of crude oil futures is still falling, and the electronic disk has been trading until half past ten in the evening.
It doesn't get much better than that for him who is short.
Ecstasy is pressed in my heart, but no one can share it, this is a huge regret, calculate the time Laura should go to bed, Zhao Liuli is young, as for the others, either they already know about it, or they have a relationship with him, and they are deeply aggrieved by this.
At seven o'clock, when the restaurant was full, the old waiter poured him half a full bottle of champagne and asked, "Is there anything worth celebrating, and if you have a birthday, I'll bring you a cake later." ”
Very intimate move, he thought that today was Ye Dongqing's birthday, and remembered that he only booked a place.
Ye Dongqing shook his head with a smile, first took out a piece of Franklin and handed it to him as a tip, and then raised his glass to the strangers and said loudly: "Everyone! Today's crude oil prices collapsed, as a celebration, I will buy the whole audience! Of course, don't continue to order expensive red wine! To Franklin!"
The crowd around them was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter, and there were applause and applause everywhere!
Who said that money can't buy happiness, the depression in his heart was swept away, he successfully shared his happiness, and it was much more comfortable to pay a small price.
The restaurant is more high-end, and the customers are all middle-class and high-yielding, and the combination of the words "crude" and "Franklin" makes it easy to guess a little bit of the truth, and someone shouts and asks, "So how much money do you make?" I ordered foie gras and caviar, and they are not cheap!"
Laughter broke out again.
After taking a sip of wine, Ye Dongqing smiled and bared his teeth: "It's not much, that's it!"
"Ten million dollars? 100 million?"
If you make a million dollars, almost no one will be stupid enough to waste it like this, so some people subconsciously think that it could be ten million dollars.
Showing off is a technical job, he nodded and said: "More than 100 million dollars, the Federal Tax Service is going to make a lot of money again, you can eat more to help me deduct taxes, but don't waste it, OK?"
How could he refuse this kind of sudden good thing, the sound of thanksgiving sounded one after another, and how could there be the quiet and elegant atmosphere just now.
The restaurant was alarmed, and a manager immediately brought a bottle of the best Latour red wine on the market to join in the fun, ready to give it to Ye Dongqing for free, compared to making friends with a billionaire, this bottle of wine is nothing, even if the boss knows, he will only praise the manager's shrewd mind, and when the news spreads, the restaurant will be more famous, and fame often means profit.
The old waiter, whose hair was already gray, had a shocked expression, he had worked for so many years, and he had seen the flower purse market, but it was the first time he had seen this kind of thing to help all customers pay, looking at the hundred-dollar bill in his hand, he was not disappointed, and said hello to Ye Dongqing with a smile.
The number of dishes is pre-booked, and the freshest ingredients are purchased according to the order every day, so it can't cost Ye Dongqing too much money, as he told others, instead of handing it over to the IRS, it is better to have fun by himself.
Young man, it's okay to be public, Ye Dongqing sat down and ate the food, with a smile on his face.
He was thinking in his heart that he hoped that the oil price would not rebound, otherwise what he had just done would definitely be ridiculed for a long, long time......
