Chapter 306: Luck Came
Futures Market & Gambling. There is little difference in the field. It could even be said that here is a huge bet. Field. And unlike Las Vegas, the bets here are too big!
In the futures market, if there is no hundreds of millions of funds, they are embarrassed to sell.
And with betting. Similar to the gamblers in the market, investors don't like to stop when they win, thinking that they can make more. And those who lose don't like to give up and quit, because they believe that they can turn the page!
Now that Disney is in a winning position, they instinctively want to win more. As for getting everything from Zhang Fan to make Disney the hegemon of the industry or something, it's more just a very tall excuse for them to stay in the market.
There is no doubt in the end result that while making a lot of money, Disney's top brass ignored the possible risks and chose to continue. They want to be able to earn more, more.
However, if the futures market could go up or down as everyone could have predicted, there wouldn't have been so many human tragedies.
On the other hand, Zhang Fan is also scratching his head about the futures market.
Two months have passed since his three-month prospect futures contract. For the past two months, Zhang Fan insisted on using lucky charms every day. The effect was very successful, at least in terms of film. Several of the films released by Zhang Fan's film company have been great successes. Even his ones are making a lot of money, and more and more copies are being sold.
However, the price of gold in the futures market is still falling slowly but firmly.
Although the magnitude of the recent decline is constantly decreasing. But because there are too many people who buy the fall, Zhang Fan loses more and more. When Citibank informed Zhang Fan that his principal had been lost, Zhang Fan even moved the idea of leaving the market immediately to stop the loss.
However, after Zhang Fan calculated the property he owned, he felt that he could still save it. He decided to hold on until the contract expired or when he fell below the warning line.
"Could it be that lucky charms don't work for such a large amount?" Zhang Fan's heart was full of doubts. Could it be that there is a limit to the effect of lucky charms?
Zhang Fan couldn't figure this out, and now that things were like this, he had no other choice. We can only wait and see if there will be any miracles in the last period of time!
Now several important big productions in the summer file have been released, and the Avengers will not be released until Christmas. As for next year's film shooting plan, it is natural that some company employees will arrange it.
Although the domestic TV series from the stars has officially started filming, it has been waiting for Zhang Fan for a long time. But now it can be delayed for a while, and the shots without Zhang Fan will be shot first. After all, for Zhang Fan at this time, the trends in the futures market are related to whether he can come to Hollywood again after returning to China to shoot TV series!
If he really loses everything, then Zhang Fan can only leave Hollywood gloomily and will not come back. Because he has lost all his chips in Hollywood, and he has also lost the confidence to regroup.
Disney is starting to look forward to a continued decline in the price of gold in order to earn more.
Zhang Fan, on the other hand, is looking forward to the rise in gold prices and earning back all the money he lost. Now Zhang Fan no longer expects to make a lot of money, he just wants to make up for the lost money as much as possible. The horror of the futures market has made him want to stop out as much as possible.
In Zhang Fan's opinion at this time, it is more stable to make movies, and it will not make people feel desperate like now.
Whether Disney won a big victory and got everything from Zhang Fan and turned over to become the king of the world film industry, or Zhang Fan was able to fight back, it depends on how the gold market has changed in the last 20 days.
"Poor friend of ours." Richard, who is in charge of Zhang Fan's investment at Citibank, was sitting in his office chatting with Cui Parker, who visited, "I told him before that the trend of the gold market is down, but unfortunately this film genius does not trust the judgment of professionals at all." Insist that you made the right choice. Well, now he's lost everything he's having. ”
"What's going on now?" Cui Pak asked, frowning. Mr. Zhang is an important client, and he has already lent him billions of dollars. Although there is sufficient collateral, once Zhang Fan's investment fails, it means that his loan also fails. Because the right target was not chosen.
"Now that the price of gold in the market has fallen below $400, Mr. Zhang has lost his principal." Richard smiled, anyway, the loser is the customer. And it's also a customer who doesn't stop giving his own opinions. No matter what Zhang Fan's final outcome is, he won't care, "Now that we have used the credit we gave him." ”
"How much longer?" Cui Paike's brow furrowed even deeper. He lent Zhang Fan the money.
"There are about twenty days left before the contract expires. However, with the current downward trend, the warning line will be reached in three days at most, and then we will force the liquidation. Richard looked at Cui Pak with a smile, "My friend, you seem to have made a failed loan this time." I'll call that Mr. Zhang and give him one last suggestion. It is recommended that he immediately force the position to leave the market. In this case, although the loss is great, it is not enough to owe the arrears that cannot be paid off. ”
After a pause, Richard continued, "He's got a lot of talent, especially when it comes to film. If he leaves now, he can still rely on his talent to pay off the arrears, and he can continue to do it in Hollywood in the future. Of course, all of his collateral belongs to us. ”
Cui Pak was silent, and the office fell silent. While Citibank would not lose anything, he himself made a failed investment, which made him feel unacceptable. He was in charge of lending at Citibank, and the failure of the selected customer investment was his failure, which was very detrimental to his future promotion in the bank.
As for Richard, he reminded Zhang Fan before that he wanted to enter the market to buy and short. So he's looking at this matter completely with an attitude of watching the excitement now. After all, it was Zhang Fan himself who didn't listen to his opinion.
Just then, Richard's phone rang suddenly.
"What's the matter?" Richard, who lit a cigarette with a leisurely face, picked up the phone on the large desk, and after a few casual answers, his originally relaxed expression gradually became serious: "What did you say?" Are you sure? Was it a short-lived rally or a trend to bottom? When did it happen? Okay, I got it. ”
After hanging up the phone, Richard looked at Cui Pak with a serious expression, "Things have changed. Maybe Mr. Zhang doesn't need to close the position. ”
"What's going on?" Cui Pike looked up in confusion, "What happened?" ”
Richard had already gotten up and was about to leave, and after looking at Cui Paike, he nodded and said, "I just received the news that the price of the international gold market suddenly began to rise, and it was not that sudden rise, it began to rebound regularly. That Mr. Zhang might be able to keep his company. ”
Just when Zhang Fan was already desperate, Richard was ready to suggest that Zhang Fan forcibly close the position. Prices on the international gold market have begun to rise.
At first, the increase was not very large, but since then it has continued to climb, and the price has been climbing faster and faster!
"What's going on?!" Christopher yelled angrily in Richard's office.
"The news from outside is that many middle-aged women in China are buying gold in large quantities, causing the price to rise." Richard calmly looked at the information on the computer.
Theoretically, with Christopher's net worth, he can't shout at a high-level like Richard. He doesn't have that kind of net worth and qualifications yet. It's just because Christopher now represents Disney.
"Aunt Huaxia has changed the gold market?! How is this possible?! Christopher's eyes were already red, and he didn't believe in such a thing. It's only been a few days, and all the money Disney made before and the money he earned himself has been lost due to the rise in the price of gold.
And that's not all, the price of the gold market is still rising, which means that he has not only lost all the money he earned before, but has even begun to lose money!
"News from Johannesburg." Richard glanced at Christopher, who was furious, "There is a mining accident over there, and gold production will drop significantly in a short period of time." ”
After a pause, Richard continued, "And the price of gold futures has been about to reach its lowest level recently. There is already room for a rebound. What was lacking before was just a strong reason. Now that reason is there. It's gold, after all. ”
Gold is not an ordinary commodity, it is the equivalent of the most important stable currency. It is extremely valuable in its own right. The so-called prosperous antiques, gold in troubled times proves its value.
The value of a precious metal such as this is extremely valuable cannot fall forever. On the contrary, it will continue to rise because of the depreciation of the currency.
Many people already thought that the price of gold had fallen almost. After all, its own value is very high, and it is impossible to fall past its own value. In other words, the market already has the atmosphere and cognitive environment for the rebound of gold prices.
At this time, whether it is the explosion of low-priced gold by Huaxia Aunt or the mining disaster in Johannesburg, it only provides sufficient reasons for the market to rebound. There have been enough people and money who have recognized that the market is about to rebound, and they are all ready for it.
After the market released a signal of a price rebound, a large amount of money entered it strongly, and the price was immediately supported. Those who bought short-selling futures with falling prices before will inevitably shrink their wealth as market prices rise if they do not close their positions in time.
It's not clear if Zhang Fan's lucky charm played a role, but at least now Zhang Fan's good luck in the futures market has come.
