The aroma of the pot in the self-operated department is steaming, and the dishes are also served quickly, such as white asparagus with basil vegetable sauce, crispy roasted belly with honey sauce barbecued pork, braised oxtail in red wine, and fried chicken steak, which were gradually brought to the ninth floor by the Japanese girl Eika Yoshii.

"Wow~~~"

Zheng Fan took out a small bottle of Carlsberg from the bucket filled with ice cubes, opened it, and took a sip very moistly.

Satellite TV has also been debugged, sitting in the self-operated department, you can see real-time news in Europe and the United States, but in addition to Zheng Fan and Ruan Yuan, even Ye Qian, who is a minor in English, is also more difficult to watch the real-time news broadcast in Europe and the United States.

"Today's meal should be regarded as a celebration of my successful sailing after winning Dafu Bank." Zheng Fan raised the small beer and gestured to Ruan Yuan and the girls.

"The operation of stock index futures during the day is not considered to be a sailing?" Wang Lin took a sip of juice and asked with a slight smile.

"I have promised Yao Ling that I would buy a medical group and hand it over to her to manage, but at present, the funds of the proprietary department of Tatfook Bank are only more than 140 million US dollars, which is not enough to do anything." Zheng Fan obviously deliberately leaked it.

"Just won the big bank, do you still want to expand your capital?" Even Ruan Yuan didn't expect that Zheng Fan would make the next move so quickly.

"The acquisition of a medical group is not all about making money, I need a medical group that provides special care and services to my family." Zheng Fan took a sip of cold beer and said with a cool face.

"Is it just because of Aunt Xiao Yue?"

Wang Lin didn't believe that Zheng Fan would spend so much money just for Xiao Yue.

"She's just one of the factors, don't you have any guesses when you listen to the name of Century Holdings?" Zheng Fan picked up a piece of abalone in the pot and asked Ruan Yuan and the girls.

"Century Holdings should be a little different from ordinary offshore investment companies, more like a parent company that focuses on holdings." Ruan Yuan is not very sure.

"If as a holding company, the future Century Holdings, it needs to have a physical group company as a support, the current Dafu Bank, is only the prototype of the banking group, when the opportunity is ripe, it will inevitably expand through the acquisition of other bank assets." Zheng Fan didn't have a trace of wanting to stop.

"Do you have other calculations in mind besides the banking group and the medical group?" Wang Lin asked curiously.

"I don't have money now, it's useless to think about it, let's talk about it later." Zheng Fan didn't raise his head.

"It is estimated that the concept of the medical group should be his next implementation goal." Listening to the meaning of Zheng Fan's words, the female doctor Yao Ling was not afraid that the group that did not propose it would compete with her for funds.

Different from Zheng Fan, Wang Lin and the women all drank juice, and after a few drawers of bamboo cage shrimp dumplings were brought up, they accelerated the speed of eating, which obviously had a psychological burden on the operation of international gold futures that may appear in the future.

"Can we really do it with just a few of us?"

Although she is not too familiar with the background of Wang Lin and Ye Qian, Ruan Yuan can see that the two women are not professional investors.

"Of course you can't, if you really want to enter the market later, you must not panic, you must resolutely implement my operation instructions, if it is really a burden, it is still too late to go, in fact, in terms of the amount of more than 100 million US dollars in Dafu Bank, I can handle it alone." Zheng Fan smiled with a relaxed face.

"We don't have the appetite you have."

While Wang Lin was a little excited in her heart, she couldn't help but be a little nervous, and quickly left the small round table and sat down in front of the computer.

"I need to familiarize myself with it before I start."

Ruan Yuan obviously has a full understanding of the risks of operating international gold futures.

"After a day's work, I have to work overtime, and the boss has the expectation of earning money, but it is very painful to change to a part-time worker." Ye Qian laughed quietly.

"It's just the first day of work, you should have a sense of crisis that no matter how much time you have, it's not enough, instead of complaining to me here, it's better to improve your ability quickly." Zheng Fan pouted.

"Unscrupulous as always."

Ye Qian secretly smiled and slandered, she was already very used to working under Zheng Fan.

"Do you know why I would pay so much to buy a private bank that is mainly paralyzed?" Zheng Fan asked lightly while drinking beer.

"Director Qin Yan told me before that with the barrier of Dafu Bank, the investment account of the offshore company will become more secretive...... Ye Qian replied seriously.

"This is just one factor, if it weren't for Tatfook Bank, which has securities, futures, and foreign exchange licenses in the financial markets of Hong Kong, Europe, and the United States, and has an independent business premises, as well as independent market qualifications, how could I spend $100 million to buy this bank." Zheng Fan showed some fatigue.

"Boss, are you trying to say something?"

Ye Qian had already sensed that Zheng Fan might have other meanings.

"As the chief financial officer of the holding company, you must be good at taking advantage of the license of Tafook Bank, do not underestimate the independent market qualification and various business authority, it is precisely because of these licenses owned by Tatfook Bank that it will be associated with the world's major capital markets, especially the rapid development of modern electronic disks, which will expand the advantages of the license and make the capital operation more convenient." Zheng Fan's gaze seemed to be expectant.

"Today's electronic trading is indeed different from the traditional sense of exchange, and it is estimated that the future development trend will change from a place where investors gather to a network of transaction information convergence." Ye Qian used to be a counter clerk at Shenyin Securities, and she could somewhat appreciate the changes brought about by electronic trading.

"Because of its business license, if Dafu Bank makes good use of electronic transactions, it can even achieve easy integration with capital markets around the world." Looking at the computers in the self-operated department, Zheng Fan smiled relaxedly.

In Ye Qian's view, Dafu Bank has completely fallen into the hands of Zheng Fan, and I believe that with the support of Ruan Yuan, the bank's affairs will be sorted out, and it is just around the corner.

"Electronic information technology, with the characteristics of high efficiency and low cost, which has reached a consensus in the global capital market, especially the electronic integration in the European and American capital markets, is to greatly promote the prosperity of commodity futures, not only Ye Qian, you also have to understand the relationship." Sensing Wang Lin and Ruan Yuan's gaze, Zheng Fan drank a bottle of beer.

"I'm almost ready, but compared with these closely related international gold trading bases, I want to know what economic data the United States has that may have a direct impact on gold prices?" At this time, Wang Lin had already discovered the change in the price of gold on the computer.

"The expectation of changes in U.S. interest rates is just an entry point, when it will or whether there can be news, no one can say, the key is to look at the opening of U.S. stocks and the U.S. dollar index, among them, the U.S. dollar index is the most correlated with international gold, it is a comprehensive reflection of the U.S. dollar, the international foreign exchange market exchange rate indicators, used to measure the degree of change in the U.S. dollar exchange rate against a basket of currencies......" Zheng Fan shook his head and did not finish his words.

"It seems that there has been a change, it is now 19 o'clock Hong Kong time, and there is still a period of time before the major indices in the United States open, and the price of international gold futures is moving downward. Wang Lin closely observed the futures trend of London gold.

"In fact, there is a point of view, I don't know whether to say or not, as early as the first half of the year, Europe and the United States and Hong Kong have been in the case of inflation has been suppressed, if this momentum continues, it will have a great suppression effect on the medium and long-term trend of international gold, you know, gold is an absolute safe-haven asset." Ruan Yuan couldn't help but be a little nervous about the changes in gold prices.

After knowing that Zheng Fan wanted to operate international gold futures, Ruan Yuan began to pay attention to the short- and medium-term trend of gold prices, and even reviewed the Hong Kong trading session from 9 to 16 o'clock today.

Through observation, Ruan Yuan found that today's international gold market is not only unusually calm in Hong Kong, but even after the opening of the London gold market at 3:30 p.m. Hong Kong time, it also remained around $380 per ounce.

And since the international gold price touched a high of $415 in early February this year, it has been in a weak pattern and is in a downward trend.

Regarding Ruan Yuan's reminder, Zheng Fan just nodded and did not refute anything.

Compared with the economic development in the 80s, after entering the 90s, the world economic pattern has obviously entered the era of low inflation, and the suppression of the medium-term price of gold is extremely obvious, but this does not mean that there are no short-term opportunities.

"Only in the weak pattern will the movement of funds be more obvious, and the water level of the international gold market will also decline." Zheng Fan secretly sighed in his heart with his experience in international gold speculation.

"After the international gold price bottomed out at $380 in July, there was a small rebound, and by mid-September, the gold price has returned to around $380 again, and such a weak market may hit a new low at any time." In the face of the uncertain market, even Wang Lin took a deep breath, worried that Zheng Fan's choice was unwise.

"The major U.S. indices have not yet opened, and London gold futures have moved in advance, and it seems that they can't wait." Zheng Fan's expression was calm, and he was not moved by the fall in gold prices.

"Is it that the market can't wait, or are you not waiting anymore?" Wang Lin sat in front of the computer, obviously getting more and more nervous.

"Report the price of the international gold spot market."

Zheng Fan not only listened to the real-time news on several TVs, but also sat in front of the computer and began to check the public information of international gold.

"After the opening of spot London gold, it has been maintained above $380 for shocks, but this wave of decline seems to be very strong, and it is estimated that there must be its influencing factors." Seeing the trend of London gold spot, the time-sharing showed a sharp decline, and Ruan Yuan even felt that it might hit a new low.

However, Ruan Yuan didn't understand why Zheng Fan's attention would shift from international gold futures to spot trading.
