was calculated by Mo Xiran, who was far away in China, and Li Sheng was of course unaware. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After more than twenty rounds of swimming in the oval pool on the Aare, he jumped ashore somewhere by the pool. Grab your towel and dry yourself, then sit on a beach chair and let the sun shine on you.

And next to him, Ali had been lying down for a while. Seeing Li Sheng lying down, Ali said with a little envy: "A few years ago, I could have wanted you to swim like this for twenty round-trips." ”

In fact, he compared his slightly bulging belly, and Li Sheng's abdominal muscles, which were inconspicuous but faintly appeared.

Li Sheng looked at the black body hair that was connected from his chest to his swimming trunks, and said with a smile: "You can hire a fitness coach in two or three months." ”

"That doesn't necessarily go your way. Ali had to admit that Li Sheng's physical perversion was perverted. Fernando, who entered the water a little earlier than Li Sheng, is only swimming for the seventh round-trip. Li Sheng seems to have several times more strength than ordinary people every time he slides his arm. "If you go to a tournament, I don't think there's anyone you're up to. ”

When Li Sheng went ashore, he didn't even catch his breath, and swam more than 1,000 meters at the speed of the Olympic sprint as if he had just returned from a walk.

At this time, a brown-haired man came over with a glass of juice and asked, "Ali, Mr. Li, hello." Can I sit down here?"

This man, Li Sheng, knew the name, and was said to be the heir of an old family in Germany, whose name was Finn Weiting. Finn, meaning beautiful hair and skin. As the name suggests, he was a handsome German man.

Li Sheng and Ali both stood up and shook hands with him, and after a few words of greeting, the three of them sat down separately, and Li Sheng sat in the middle of the three.

Finn put the juice on a small table next to him and complimented, "Mr. Lee's swimming skills are so good, I think he can break the world record at the Olympics." ”

Ali seemed to know this Finn and naturally smiled and said, "I just suggested that he try to participate in the Olympics." ”

Li Sheng said modestly: "You have all won the award. I'm just a little stronger. To say that the technique is far worse than those athletes. He himself knows what is going on, his affinity for water makes him just not control, and the water will have much less resistance to him, so he can swim so fast. Otherwise, no matter how good his physical fitness or upper body strength is, he would not be able to swim at such a speed.

The three of them said a few polite words, which were already familiar in business interactions. Finn smiled and said, "Ali, Lee, what do you think about the current oil prices?"

Although Li Sheng read some information last night, he still has no judgment on this aspect. So he looked at Ali to see how he answered.

Ali reached out and took a sip of the juice before saying, "We are all expecting oil prices to rise." However, this is largely determined by market demand. But in fact, oil prices are mainly controlled by major crude oil importers. For example, the United States, such as China. However, we believe that even if we do not cut production, the gap in world crude oil demand will only widen this year. The U.S. and China sides will loosen their grip on crude oil prices. ”

The United States and China are the two countries that import the most crude oil in the world, and the third place is Jipan. But it is the economic and political power of the United States and China that has the greatest influence on oil prices. The influence of the chicken plate is not very large. That's why Ali has such a saying.

Finn nodded, but didn't agree or disagree with Ali's statement. He turned to Li Sheng and said, "Li, what do you think?"

Li Sheng thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I didn't pay attention to oil prices before. However, yesterday I talked to the princes and heard about some topics, and I learned a little about them last night. I think the current oil price is really abnormal. After all, there is now a gap of more than 500 million tons of crude oil demand in the world. However, this market shortage did not react to the price of crude oil, which is contrary to the laws of the market. In the first half of last year, oil prices fluctuated between seventy and one hundred. Although there was no significant decline, there was no breakthrough. That shows that oil prices are indeed controlled by the major crude oil importers. If crude oil exports continue to decline, I think oil prices will become more in line with the market. ”

Finn just listened to his indirect quietly and saw that Ali didn't mean to speak, so he smiled and said: "Now the trend of world economic growth is still optimistic. At this year's World Economic Forum, delegates believed that the U.S. economy would recover this year, with a growth rate that might exceed 2.5 percent, while China's economy continued to be optimistic and the growth rate remained at around 6 percent. Emerging economies such as India and Brazil will also grow rapidly. World oil demand will increase by about 5 percent compared to last year. Oil exports, on the other hand, are forecast to fall by about 2 percent. ”

He paused at this point.

Ali smiled and said: "This is good news for us OPEC countries. ”

Li Sheng just smiled, his thoughts a little divergent.

Finn smiled and said, "So I think it's likely that oil prices will start to rise in the second quarter of the year, and they will exceed $100 a barrel by the end of the second quarter." As long as it breaks through the psychological barrier of 100, it is likely to rise all the way, and my estimate is that in the third quarter, the international crude oil price will reach about $150 a barrel. ”

Li Sheng read some information last night and also knew that it is impossible for crude oil prices to rise endlessly. When prices reach a certain level, imports will shrink, and economic growth expectations in various countries will fall as a result. At that point, the price of crude oil will be suppressed by the market.

It's just that he doesn't know what Finn is saying this for.

Ali helped him with the question: "I agree with what you say, but what do you suggest?"

"I'm now preparing to invest in crude oil futures. But I don't have enough money. You know, to compete with the world's top two economies, no amount of money is enough. ”

Both Li Sheng and Ali understood what he meant. This is to ask them to raise funds.

Li Sheng thought about it for a while and felt that the possibility of rising oil prices was indeed not small. Rushing to the news that the prince inadvertently revealed last night, OPEC countries are seeking to raise the price of oil. This is a force that cannot be ignored in influencing international crude oil prices.

He sat up straight and asked, "What are your plans?"

Finn glanced at Ali and saw that he seemed to be listening to his own words, so he whispered, "I plan to go long European and American crude oil futures by the middle of this month." But I still lack at least $10 billion in funding. ”

When Li Sheng heard that he was still short of so many funds, his heart jumped. It's going to be a big one.

Ali asked, "Can you tell us more about your plan?" You must know that the risk of operating futures is not small. ”

Finn nodded and said, "Of course, the risk of investing in futures is great, but the greater the risk, the higher the profit." I have a professional team of analysts and traders. There is still a great deal of confidence in the analysis of the market and early operation. My plan is to raise at least $30 billion, which can be considered financing or partnership. ”

"How to calculate the benefits of financing and cooperation?"

"Financing can be a partner in our fund, which is completely operated by us, and at the end of the day, dividends are paid on a share-by-share basis. If we cooperate, we can analyze the market, and the funder can decide whether to invest or not based on the market analysis given by our team, but we only do the same as our fund. If we go long, this part of the funds can only choose whether to participate in the long and how much leverage to use. If there is a loss, we are not responsible, and if it is profitable, our fund charges 20% of the trading fee. ”

Li Sheng and Ali glanced at each other. He nodded and said, "I can have five billion dollars in my hands." But I need to think about it before I can decide whether to participate or not. ”

Hearing that he had five billion dollars, Finne's eyes lit up, but he didn't continue to persuade: "I look forward to your good news." ”

Ali smiled and said, "I don't have that much spare money, but I can still raise two or three billion dollars." It will take some time though. But I also need to think about it. ”

Having said that, they don't talk about it anymore. Finn spoke for a while, and then left with a bad excuse to get juice for his female companion.

After he left, Fernando walked over. After he came up to the pool just now, he was probably worried about interjecting into their conversation halfway, so he didn't come over.

"That was Finn Weting? He wouldn't want to buy a stake in our company, would he? ”

Ali shook his head and smiled and said, "No, he is looking for us for funds." It's about crude oil. If you are interested, you can talk to him in detail. ”

Although he and Fernando are good friends. But he still has to follow the rules that should be followed in business. What Finn just said is already a trade secret. Ali can only give a slight hint. If Fernando is interested, just go and talk to Fien to find out what happened. In that way, it does not divulge other people's trade secrets, but also takes into account the friendship between friends.

Fernando thought for a moment and said, "If I'm interested, I'll go talk to him." But he said so, and lay down on a beach chair next to Ali.

The three of them weren't talking, Li Sheng looked at Fernando as if he was resting with his eyes closed, and Ali was peeking at those beauties. However, it can be seen that his eyes are basically aimed at the dozen or so female companions brought by the invited guests. However, it is not surprising that the age of those princesses is indeed relatively young. It shouldn't be his cup of tea.

And most of the female companions who were brought by the guests were not the real family members of those guests. Maybe he still has a chance.

Li Sheng smiled secretly twice in his heart, and his eyes under the sunglasses took a large number of eyes around him. Many of those princes were still wearing robes, and a few were wearing swimming trunks, which should have been swam in the water. Most of the invited guests and princes were chatting in twos and threes, and they should all be invited by themselves. There were a few guests like Finn who were invited to be more active. This is especially true of Finn, who seems to have a big funding gap. (To be continued.) )
