Chapter 14: They'll Fight

"What, buy all oil futures?!"

"Don't shout so loudly, it's okay, the whole world knows."

Ye Kai took Zhong Liyu to a newly opened restaurant, with a five-star setting, and the service was first-class in the capital.

After ordering a few dishes and asking for a bottle of red wine, Ye Kai talked to Zhong Liyu about oil futures.

Sure enough, Zhong Liyu was taken aback by Ye Kai's idea.

Ye Kai said very directly, "This time, I temporarily got 300 million from the military, and I plan to buy all oil futures and make a big profit." ”

Zhong Liyu thought to herself, it was really Ye Kai's hands and feet, otherwise how could the military come up with 300 million to operate this matter? After all, it is 300 million funds, which is definitely not a small number for the Logistics Department of the Capital Military District.

It's just that Zhong Liyu suddenly became a little worried, and it seemed that he still couldn't get the money.

Ye Kai saw that Zhong Liyu's face was a little bad, and naturally knew what she was thinking in her heart, so he said to her, "You don't have to worry about this matter, no matter what the final result is, it will not be a bad thing for you Zhong Liyu." ”

Zhong Liyu thought about it for a while, and felt that what Ye Kai said also made sense.

At least, after the military requisitioned the Xicheng real estate project, all the risks and pressure from the government were transferred from Zhong Lijia's body to the military, even if he couldn't get the money for the time being, he didn't have to worry about anything, at most he just watched coldly, which was much better than the situation that Zhong Litian had expected to take responsibility for the later stage.

The loss is larger, but the other risks are gone, and they will not be forced to bear the relevant legal responsibilities.

"But in this way, our family's vitality has ......been greatly damaged," Zhong Liyu sighed and said.

Although there are still five million dollars in deposits and villas in the United States, but with a loss of 200 million, Zhong Li's Tianyu company is completely collapsed, thinking of his father Zhong Litian, Zhong Liyu doesn't know if he can accept such a blow.

"Actually, you don't have to worry, it's just a means of money laundering." Ye Kai felt that it was better to talk to Zhong Liyu more thoroughly, so as to save her from having a pimple in her heart.

"Huh?" Zhong Liyu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and her delicate eyebrows also wrinkled.

"In fact, it is certainly impossible for the military to come up with 300 million yuan to expropriate a land project that has no military significance." Ye Kai said unabashedly, "The reason why I did this is to eliminate the pressure on the bank and the pressure from the government through such means, these three hundred million are just borrowed for a while, and they will have to be repaid after two months at most." But during this period of time, 300 million can still do a lot of things, such as investing in international oil futures. If you're lucky enough, you'll earn more than just 300 million. ”

Saying this, Zhong Liyu understood Ye Kai's true thoughts, and after thinking about it carefully, he also appreciated his methods very much.

"So, in the end, this real estate project will return to Tianyu Company, and the funds of 300 million yuan will also return to the military's account?" Zhong Liyu asked.

Ye Kai nodded and said, "Yes, but within these two months, we can rest assured and boldly use these three hundred million to make money, this is a good opportunity." ”

"But if you speculate on oil futures now, the risk is very high." Zhong Liyu frowned again.

Today, she carefully studied the recent international futures market and found that oil futures are indeed the hottest, but the risks are infinitely magnified.

After Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, the price of crude oil rose from more than $20 to $41 in one go, and it has remained high ever since.

At this time, the US-led multinational forces are gathering near the outer bay or stationed at US military bases in Saudi Arabia to sharpen their knives, and although they have not used force against Iraq, the situation is very tense and there is a situation in which they are on the verge of breaking out.

In this case, the direction of oil prices remains a mystery.

Up, or down? This is a problem.

"Almost no one dares to make this kind of big gamble......," Zhong Liyu said to Ye Kai, "If you do on-site trading, the leverage coefficient of oil futures is about ten times, and if you do over-the-counter trading, the leverage factor is about fifty times." If you make it, you will naturally get rich overnight, but if you lose it, you will really lose all your money and go bankrupt. ”

Ye Kai nodded and said, "The higher the return, the greater the risk, I naturally know this truth." What are your thoughts on the current trend in oil prices? ”

"Me?" Zhong Liyu glanced at Ye Kai and thought for a while before saying, "International oil prices are already running at a high level, and it stands to reason that they should run downward, but if the United States uses force against Iraq, it cannot be ruled out that oil prices will continue to rise." ”

At present, some international analysts have also made some predictions about the future trend of international oil prices, and they generally believe that if the United States uses force against Iraq, it will certainly not be able to end the war in a short period of time, after all, Iraq's military strength is very strong, and judging from the number of ground troops, the Americans do not have an advantage.

Once the war reaches a stalemate, then the promotion of oil prices is very obvious, and international oil prices will continue to climb and continue to rise.

"The most critical question now is whether the Americans will really fight? When will you start playing? How long does it take? If this can be determined, it will only make sense to analyze, otherwise it is just random speculation and unreasonable. Zhong Liyu summed it up.

"Do you think the Americans will go to war with Iraq?" Ye Kai asked with interest.

"I think there's going to be war, and it's just in the near future." Zhong Liyu replied confidently.

"Why?" Ye Kai was more interested, and asked with a smile.

According to expert estimates, once a war starts, military spending will exceed $200 million per day, and such a large investment cannot be spent in vain, and the aircraft carrier battle group will also spend a lot of money, so this battle is inevitable." Zhong Liyu analyzed, "If it drags on for a long time, the Americans will definitely not be able to afford it, so there will definitely be a war in the short term!" ”

"You're right, and I agree with that." After Ye Kai heard this, he smiled and affirmed, "They will fight." ”
