Su Zhenguo went to work, and Jia Lidong looked at him reluctantly, looking like a widower, full of regret.

Professor Dai explained to his students to Su Cheng, who was full of halos on his head: "Xiao Jia usually has a moderate view and still has some opinions on Asian issues. This time I was in a bit of a hurry. ”

The anxiety was stimulated by Sioux City.

Su Cheng lacked any sympathy, and said, "With or without me, he will always be stimulated by others." ”

Gaining attention with radicalism was a common tactic used by literati, especially in a state of change. Kang Youwei, who wrote on the bus, is a typical example. Su Cheng was so disgusted by this kind of vain and brainless practice that he didn't show it at this time, thanks to years of Qi cultivation kung fu.

Professor Dai smiled a little embarrassedly, uncovered the stubble, and said: "Su Lao has a lot of say on the Gulf issue, and it is also the result of accumulation. Your point of view is worth exploring, so you need to be prepared. ”

Although it's a little unclear, it's not easy to get the meaning.

Sioux City smiled and thanked him. In fact, if you really want to be more credible, Professor Dai is an expert on the Middle East and has been providing relevant advice. As long as he expresses his opinion on any relevant issue, he must pay attention to all aspects. Sioux City has a halo of $200 million over his head, and he has the assertion of accurate judgment, that is, he can appear next to Professor Dai and play the right thing.

Fortunately, Sioux City did not follow the route of a policy adviser, and there was no significant conflict between the two. Professor Dai was also excited to exchange views with Sioux City.

However, since public discussions focus on results and private discussions focus on cause and effect, how dare Su Cheng discuss with him the emergence and process of the international situation? When Su Cheng was studying, in addition to the content of oil, the most important news about the world was made by Professor Dai's disciples and grandchildren.

Frightened, he immediately raised his wrist. "Ahh I have to go back to futures trading, and I still have a lot of preparations. ”

Worried about being left behind, he turned and ran out.

Jia Lidong had just woken up from the blow. The jealous eye medicine said: "He is afraid that we will borrow his point of view." In his eyes, that's the kind of person he is?"

Professor Dai coughed: "He is more trusted by Su Lao, don't talk nonsense." ”

Jia Lidong realized something. When he wanted to ask, Sioux City turned back like a whirlwind.

I only heard Su Cheng shouting: "Professor Dai, they said let me wait for a reply, the futures market waits for no one, can you help me talk about it." ”

Professor Dai said it with understanding.

After a while, a director of the Su Office came over and asked, "Can futures trading be operated by your subordinates?" ”

Su Cheng hurriedly explained the process and said, "I must be there myself, and it involves hundreds of millions of dollars in transactions. If I don't make a decision, they hesitate, sometimes for a minute or two. The market has changed abruptly. War is about to break out, and every minute counts. ”

"I see. Please wait. The director went to ask for instructions again, and after a while, he came again: "What does Su Lao mean, you can bring equipment and personnel to the State Council, at that time, if you don't need your intervention, please ask your company's staff to operate as usual, if you need your intervention, the central leading comrades are also interested in looking at the block trading in the international oil futures market." ”

The high-level leaders have really never seen the trading of bulk oil futures, and the transactions of more than 100 million US dollars in the state reserve center are many illegal operations, how dare they play in front of the leaders. If it was before, people might have been indifferent to oil futures. Now in the midst of the Gulf crisis, it is impossible to turn a blind eye.

Still, going directly to the State Department made Sioux City a little nervous. This level is a bit high, and he has to be nervous when he is the boss of PetroChina.

The director conveyed the instructions, did not give Sioux City time to bargain, took out a small notebook and said: "What equipment do you need, how many people want to enter, I need names and units." In addition, we will now send people to pick up people from the Planning Commission guest house, and you will inform them to get ready......"

In the room that had just finished breakfast, it was a busy scene again.

Jia Lidong was jealous.

Among the promotion ladders he designed for himself, the first was to gain attention, the second was to be influential, and the third was to preside over a certain work in the field of leadership attention.

This Sioux City is good, and he can go to the State Council to perform.

But no matter how much Jia Lidong himself thought, it was useless, and Professor Dai soon left for the State Department, and he followed behind him and blocked him before getting into the car.

The staff of the Su Office said, "I'm sorry, there is no place", and there was no expression of sorry on his face.

Professor Dai was also not satisfied with his radical proposition, so he did not help at the moment, but said: "You go back to the center to rest, organize your thoughts, don't run around, and be ready to help me check the information at any time." ”

Finally, there is a last sentence that shows that it has not been abandoned. Jia Lidong watched the convoy go away.

The car drove to the door, and after a little inspection, Su Cheng was directly taken into a large conference room, and there were really a lot of staff on the road, and most of them were about 30 years old, but none of the dignitaries and high-ranking officials were seen.

Sioux City slowly came to his senses from his reverence. Most of the staff in this compound have a lower identity and future than Hou Haiqing, and there are not too many senior leaders who can take up eye-popping positions.

Thinking about it like this, his nervousness was gone.

The traders of the Dahua Group who came in later could not eliminate their nervousness in a comparative way. They set up equipment in the corners of their hands, computers and telephones are the most needed tools, and then desks, chairs, and display screens.

There were not enough phones for four in a conference room, so I had to go to the office next door to borrow a phone and tear up the white phone lines everywhere. The hospital office specially found two attentive intern girls to help hang up the wire, and quickly fixed the telephone line close to the wall with tape and cord.

Su Cheng didn't have to do anything, just looked at the two interns in a daze. The White House intern is a well-known ranking for Chinese in later generations, but I didn't expect that the State Department also has interns, and after such an internship experience, it is really good to put on the resume.

In the midst of his thoughts, Director Huang and Zhu Enbo of the National Reserve Center also came to the conference hall, and they were ready on the other side, close to Dahua's manpower.

A moment later. Several people sat down.

Duan Yuanguang ranked third. Said hello to Su Cheng with a smile.

Professor Dai was familiar with the process, and after a brief conversation with Su Cheng, he continued to elaborate on the topic in the morning.

The Gulf issue is the most important international issue today. After half a year of transmission, it has even affected China, which is a topic that must be understood.

Sioux City starts with Bush and the Bush family. Taking oil as the main line, talking about their judgments and choices, many of them belong to the research theories of later generations, which are incompatible with the research of scholars in the 90s, and have been somewhat out of the category of impotence, but it does exist, before the 70s, Texas was a world-class oil producing place, and its status was better than that of the Middle East. The former Texas Railroad Commission has a status equal to or surpassed that of OPEC, and the Bush family, which grew on oil and Wall Street, is like a cadre from Sicily. Innocence is unlikely.

Su Zhenguo and the others listened very carefully. China since the reform and opening up. Academics have shifted from class criticism to undisciplined praise, and the study of political figures is far from deepening to a certain extent.

This is the Sr. Bush's first term. It is also the only term. The Chinese theoretical circles still know about him at the level of a "bicycle ambassador" when he was the director of the liaison office in China, and the intelligence agencies know about him when he was the director of the CIA. Everyone knows about his business experience, and everyone doesn't care.

But when you tie his oil tycoon's resume to the Middle East, a whole host of problems arise.

He only spoke for five minutes in total, then emptied what he knew, and finally spread his hands and said: "On the whole, I have determined the inevitability and timing of the beginning of the war based on the above reasons. As long as Bush has the ability to control, he will certainly act in a manner that is in line with the big oil groups. ”

Zhou Lao, who was sitting in front, commented with satisfaction: "Concise and to the point. Not bad. I heard that you graduated from the Department of Chinese at Peking University? ”

Sioux City burst into tears, and finally, finally did what this diploma was supposed to do. When people in the past heard that they were graduates of the Chinese Department of Peking University, what kind of expressions did they have, as if they really knew that they were a fake. Now is it right......

A few people sitting on the sofa whispered, basically the big leaders said the big leaders, the small officials said the words of the small officials, and each said his own part.

Seeing that there was nothing to do with him, Su Cheng took two steps back and went to supervise the traders in the rear. The International Petroleum Futures Exchange has been open for a while, and the traders are moving lightly, not daring to speak loudly, picking up the phone, and whispering as if they are in a kindergarten, provoking the opposite trader to scream wildly.

Zhang Chao also asked softly: "Do you want to continue to open a position?"

"2 million barrels each time, continue to build positions. ”

"In the midst of falling oil prices, if there is no war in the short term, we will lose money. Zhang Chao almost whispered in Su Cheng's ear. There must be a risk in such a thing as war until the last moment, and Sioux City's current behavior is purely speculative and has nothing to do with hedging. But the normal big oil conglomerates often don't do this anymore, just like Sioux City wouldn't run to buy shares in the Chinese stock market, the plate is too small and overwhelmed.

The financial sector of the big oil conglomerates usually uses the safest way to chase the rise and fall, and they will not bet until the war starts.

Dahua Group has small arms and legs in the international oil market, like retail investors, and naturally does not pay so much attention to it.

Su Cheng ordered in a low voice to continue to build a position, his voice was inaudible, and he thought: Such a magical and high-end place, I didn't expect it to be so uncomfortable to do futures.

"Speak with confidence, and call you here to see how you are doing. Learn about this international futures market. "I don't know who it is, as if I know what Su Cheng is thinking.

Su Cheng turned his head and looked, I don't know when, Zhou Lao, Su Zhenguo, Duan Yuanguang and others all stood behind him, and Hall Chief Huang was wandering around, looking ready to be inspected, but no one cared about it. (To be continued)
