The three of them then sat down to eat.

Doing things outside, Zhang Bin actually doesn't have a boss's shelf, but sometimes talks a little too much when eating.

At half past three in the afternoon, Hao Ren and Wang Zihang came over.

However, Zhang Bin doesn't have anything special to order, just follow the current trend.

As for whether oil futures will rise, this is not a question they should be concerned about, but Zhang Bin, the boss, should be concerned about.

Shen Qian and Mao Shiyang listened to it next to them, and only then did they know that Zhang Bin was speculating in oil futures in London, and it was not a small amount of money.

During the conversation, Zhang Bin found that perhaps because of the life in London in the past six months, the three of them seemed to be somewhat different from them in terms of speech and behavior.

Zhang Bin asked Hao Ren if he had any plans to settle abroad.

Hao Ren said that he had no such idea for the time being, but Wang Zihang and his wife were a little hesitant now.

They seem to be more comfortable with life in London, but they don't want to go back to the United States.

However, it is not yet possible to determine where it is.

In the evening, Zhang Bin welcomed the guest of his trip, Dan. Ivre.

"Hi, Zhang, long time no see", seeing Zhang Bin, Ivor directly hugged him.

"Are you satisfied with the hotel arrangement? I hope you're well rested," says Ivor with a smile.

"Of course, thank you, Ivre, my friend", Zhang Bin opened a bottle of red wine and poured it for himself and Ivor.

This is a bottle of '89 Lafite, which costs about $8,000 at the hotel.

"I have to say that this bottle of wine has cost me a month's salary," said Ivor with a pained look on his face, before smiling, "but I'd love to have it with Zhang."

Zhang Bin and Ivor touched a glass together.

Zhang Bin smiled, Ivor's will not pay out of his own pocket, this accommodation must be counted in the company's account.

"When you come to my house, I invite you to drink as much as you want, you know, I am friends with Mr. Harlan", Zhang Bin smiled.

"Yes, why didn't I think of it, then I said it, Zhang, I'm going to go to Huaxia this summer to see this land of legends, and you'll have to treat me well when the time comes," said Ivor with a smile.

"A word is a certainty", Zhang Bin raised his glass again.

After some exchanges, the two finally began to get to the point at some point.

"Well, Ivor, you know I'm going to be very busy at this time, but I still insist on coming here in person, I wonder if you can help me solve a financial problem," Zhang Bin said.

"Okay, Zhang, I don't know about you yet, you made so much money in the second half of last year, you will still be short of money?" Ivor quipped.

"I'm serious, my money has been invested elsewhere, and I hope you can help me borrow $600 million from Brent Futures today," Zhang said.

"$600 million?" Ivor put down his glass, his face becoming serious, and confirmed again.

"That's right, it's $600 million," Mr. Zhang said.

Ivor looked embarrassed and said, "Zhang, you have to know that you have borrowed 500 million US dollars from us."

"I know, I believe in you very much, Ivor, you know, I won't miss it, lend me 600 million US dollars, I will give you three points of interest, and at the end of the year, I will return it to you with interest", Zhang Bin said seriously

"Zhang, you're really crazy, do you know you'll be easily exposed if you do this?" "And please give me a reason to believe why you're doing this."

Zhang Bin smiled: "Do you think crude oil futures will go up?" ”

Ivor was a little unsure, hesitated for a while and said, "According to the current trend, I think there are still ten dollars at most, which is crazy enough, and it is impossible to go up again."

Zhang Bin smiled and said, "No, I think it will go up, to a height that we all think is impossible."

"Why do you think so?" Ivor was very strange, Zhang Bin's tone seemed to be very sure, where did the confidence come from.

"Do you believe in genius?" Zhang Bin sold a pass and looked at Ivre.

Ivor smiled bitterly and said, "Zhang, even if I lend you money, there are already too many funds in your account, and there is no way to hide it by relying on me alone, do you know?" If you add that $600 million, you'll be known to everyone."

"What if you know? Is this illegal? Zhang Bin shrugged and said.

"Of course not, you're a legitimate business competitor, but you're going to be targeted, and you know, dollars are never short of temptation," says Ivor.

"So I hope you can help me", Zhang Bin continued, "So, Ivre, I know that Goldman Sachs' ability, if you want to hide my situation, it won't be a problem, I use the funds in my hand as collateral, you lend me 600 million US dollars, I pay 3 percent of the annual interest, in addition, how about you can earn 1% of all my profits?" ”

Zhang Bin has already been bloodletting, and the annual interest of three points means that by the end of the year, he needs to pay an interest rate of 18 million US dollars, a 1% profit, according to his estimates, this year is at least 3 billion US dollars in profit, that is, 30 million US dollars, so down, that is to send them 50 million US dollars directly.

Ivor was silent for a long time, and finally raised his glass and said to Zhang Bin: "I swear, Zhang, you are definitely the craziest investor I have ever met, there is no one."

Ivor has been in the industry for more than ten years, and it is the first time I have seen someone so desperate, even those investment predators, if they are more confident, they will not put all their net worth into it, because the market will always be risky.

Zhang Bin is not more confident, but very confident.

Judging from the situation last year, the trend of history has hardly changed, and his billions of dollars of funds are estimated to be a bubble effect, which will not affect the final outcome at all.

Zhang Bin felt that borrowing money this time was more difficult than he imagined.

It is easy to imagine that the last time he borrowed money, it was because he also had the same capital in his hand, and Ivor was not worried, although he still had capital to borrow money this time, but after all, the last 500 million US dollars had not been repaid.

The financial crisis has begun to manifest, and Goldman Sachs, as a leader in investment institutions, has naturally seen this possibility, so it is also beginning to find ways to narrow the outflow of funds and have as much cash as possible to prevent any problems.

Investing in real estate at this time, or elsewhere, is not a wise choice, and who knows if it will directly become a bubble in the next moment.

This is also the reason for Ivel's concerns, if Zhang Bin's investment fails, there is no doubt that his career will end here, so he has to be cautious.

And more than a billion dollars lent to the same person, this is not something that Ivor can decide.

Ivor left, asked Zhang Bin to wait for news, and replied to him within three days.

The bottle of red wine is not finished, and there are still a few glasses.

Zhang Bin poured three cups, put them in front of him, and let Mao Shiyang and Shen Qian in.

"89-year-old Lafite, a bottle of 80 million US dollars, dry", Zhang Bin took a cup and smiled at the two.

Both of them have been in class for a few years, have had a lot of socializing, and have drunk a lot of red wine, but it is the first time to drink such expensive red wine.

Both of them raised their glasses, touched them with Zhang Bin, and then drank them all.

On the 21st, while waiting for news from Ivre, Zhang Bin met another heavyweight capitalist, who is now the first person in the hedge fund who has begun to make a name for himself. Paulson.

And that night, Shen Qian, who had drunk a full glass of red wine, returned to the room and couldn't help but write excitedly in her diary, "I drank a glass of red wine worth 8,000 US dollars today."
