Chapter 83: Crazy!
"Crazy, aren't you! It's all crude oil futures?!
Are you sure you don't have a hedge, go all long?!Damn this guy won't invest!"
Edward Johnson Jr. was furious in his office, with his assistants, secretaries, and the male accountant standing in front of him, who had just arrived from Freshwater Fund a few minutes earlier.
According to the provisions of the VAM agreement, the accounts are usually checked by a third-party company, and each other's accounts can be checked in the middle of the month, only once, which is Ye Dongqing's fear that he will fall behind in the gambling game, so as to adjust the investment method and prepare the back hand, Xiao Edward did not refuse at the beginning.
With the size of Fidelity Investment Group, some people in it have access to secret information, such as the recent long and short game on oil prices, behind which a group of oil and arms tycoons are secretly involved.
It is not surprising that he can come into contact with these news, these giants already like to use the "information asymmetry theory" to make money, and some fluctuations are jointly created by a group of giants, such as the Internet bubble crisis that has just ended, many companies choose to sell in batches at the same stage, which can no longer be described as a coincidence.
They have their own small circle, help each other, pass on news to each other, after learning of her son's gambling agreement, Ms. Johnson personally sent a well-known fund manager of the company to help, and Edward Jr. has been doing oil futures for two weeks, but in the form of long and short hedging.
Buying a part of a long order, buying a part of a short order, and then looking at the development of the market to adjust flexibly, can avoid losing too much at one time, which also means that it is difficult to make too much.
Since the collapse of traditional funds in the dot-com bubble, this originally unappreciated way of wealth management has been accepted by investors, and overnight no one has invested in traditional funds, preferring to invest in hedge funds.
The accountant in charge of auditing the accounts said: "Yes, and I heard from a friend that the young Chinese who gambled against you not only bought a short order of 5 million US dollars, plus his Tamsui Fund Company, probably bought nearly 50 million US dollars, all of which were 8% margin and 12.5 times leverage.
It was all settled a few hours ago, and if it hadn't been sold too early, it should have made more money now. ”
When he said this, there was envy in his eyes, and he made tens of millions of dollars in more than ten days, and the male accountant felt that he would not be able to make so much money in his life.
The matter of Freshwater Fund's heavy position in crude oil futures has spread on a small scale as early as a few days ago, and the news on Wall Street is extremely fast, and most people have heard the name of this company for the first time, and it was seen as a joke last week, and I will look back at it again this week...... It's a stroke of genius!
No one had mentioned this in front of Little Edward, and when he heard that the damn Chinese had actually made so much money, it was tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, his face turned red, and he was a little flustered.
With such a high rate of return, he felt that he could not win at all.
Most of Edward's friends know about the bet, if he fulfills the agreement on the contract after losing, it will be difficult to raise his head in front of others for the rest of his life, it will be regarded as a joke, and what is even more terrible is to lose the face of the Johnson family, once his mother is angry, the consequences are unimaginable.
I never thought that I would lose before, but now I am extremely anxious, standing by the window and smoking, I can't think of any way to win Ye Dongqing except to buy lottery tickets.
The male accountant waved and told everyone else in the office to get out.
As an employee, the boss will feel embarrassed in front of others when his head is caught in the door, and he told little Edward after closing the door:
"Boss, in fact, when I came back, Ms. Vigo, the operating officer of Tamsui Fund Company, asked me to tell you something, she hopes that you can end the VAM agreement early so that your mother's face will not be damaged.
Ms. Vigo is willing to help communicate with her boss to prevent you from making such an embarrassing move, I mean after losing......"
"Shut up!"
Little Edward didn't want to hear the latter words, let alone actually do it, just thinking about it made him feel ashamed.
From beginning to end, this guy didn't think about the more than five million dollars, and he was rich enough to be like little Edward, so he didn't care about these little money at all.
After he became an adult, he took the trust every month, the amount was as high as two million dollars, and it was regularly put into the account, and as long as the Fidelity Investment Group did not go bankrupt, he could always get the kind of death, which was regarded as pocket money.
With assets of nearly $17 billion, the Johnson family truly stands at the top of the social food chain and cannot be viewed from the eyes of ordinary people.
There was silence in the office for a while, and after more than ten seconds, little Edward let out a long breath and said, "You go and help me solve it, ask that damn guy what he wants, I don't think he will let me go easily."
If I hear about it from someone else, I swear I'm going to get you out of Wall Street, and no company will take you in, so keep your mouth shut, understand?"
The male accountant believed that little Edward could do such a thing, and nodded with a serious expression: "I understand, but their boss doesn't seem to be in New York recently, and he went to Xiangjiang to discuss business." ”
"You can do it yourself, I just want the result. ”
The more little Edward thought about it, the more angry he became, and he scolded: "What Wall Street elites, they are all a bunch of fools! People can earn so much, but I only earn so little!"
……
Ye Dongqing sneezed a few times.
After he finished breakfast, he was walking back to his room, and when he entered the house, he met an aunt who helped clean the guest room, and stuffed a few Hong Kong dollars with a denomination of 500 denominations, which was regarded as a tip for helping to clean, and he made a lot of money, and his mentality was a little inflated.
Guests can receive tips, but this is a lot of money, and the two elderly women hurriedly expressed their gratitude, and left after some tossing, and there was not even a fold on the bed.
Compared with well-known Internet giants such as Tencent and Taobao, a company named Huawei is more famous in the United States, the first two are only Internet companies, which do not threaten the interests of American companies, but the latter has many patents, which can make companies such as Qualcomm and Cisco feel threatened, involving core technology fields in the United States such as communication infrastructure.
Even if there was the slightest possibility, Ye Dongqing wanted to invest in this company, found a phone on the Internet, and called to ask customer service.
The customer service replied that the authority was not enough, and then transferred it to his supervisor, and the supervisor did not have enough authority to talk about financing, and then transferred it to a small manager, and successfully asked the small manager for the phone number of the boss surnamed Ren.
contacted the other party's office, talked to Boss Ren about financing, and only told him that he was Chinese, and now he opened a company in the United States, was optimistic about his company, and did not interfere with management, did not resell within ten years, and invested about 20 million US dollars.
I thought there was some hope, but unfortunately he was rejected directly, and Boss Ren politely told him that the company had just received a loan of 200 million yuan.
Ye Dongqing didn't give up, and thought of another way: "Then how about opening a joint venture company with you, recently I want to do mobile phone manufacturing business, your company has technology and market, and I have money to invest."
I checked a lot of companies, and you are the most suitable one, and now the telecom infrastructure is not easy to do, how about working together on mobile phones......?
