Regarding the price of iron ore and the price of steel, Zhang Yang has always been puzzled. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Although Zhang Yang inherited the memories of some elites, Zhang Yang is a person after all, like this kind of natural resources involving a global surname economy, Zhang Yang can't predict its laws, and can only be analyzed through normal marketing channels.
Suddenly, Zhang Yang missed the little monk a little.
If there is a little monk, with the ability of the little monk, it may only take a few minutes to trace the root cause of the iron ore and the price increase just now.
It is certain that behind the rise in iron ore prices, there must be a huge behind-the-scenes mastermind.
If there is no man-made operation, iron ore would not have soared at this rate, which violates the market law of economic development......
It seems that this issue can only be handed over to Mao Renguo.
After all, the rise in the price of iron ore has directly restricted the development of the Mao family.
I made an appointment for dinner, but Zhang Yang excused himself, for Zhang Yang's age, he was not used to talking about some things during dinner.
Champs Gardens.
This is the high-end villa of the provincial capital, and in the suburbs, a moon-shaped artificial lake, surrounded by three rows of villas, forms a high-end villa complex.
Zhang Yang didn't call the plane, nor did he let the security guard follow, and took a taxi directly to the Champs Garden.
Walking on the crescent-shaped artificial lake, watching the little starlight scattered in the lake, Zhang Yang can't help but have a trace of admiration for this designer, undoubtedly, this designer combines the perspective of the West and the small bridge and flowing water in the East seamlessly, here, you can enjoy the feeling of open sight, and you can feel the flowing water of the Chinese courtyard, no wonder this place can be made in a handful, has become the most high-end villa group in the provincial capital, here, in three years, housing prices have risen three times, of course, This is also related to the state's policy of not allowing the development of villa areas.
No. 28 East District, Mao House.
This is a three-story villa, covering an area of more than 600 square meters, with a ditch about five meters wide in front, built with a stone barrier, and a white railing on top, which looks refreshing and atmospheric.
The iron gate was very tall, and from the fence you could see a tall wolf dog patrolling back and forth inside, a pair of fluorescent eyes emitting a ferocious aura that made people palpitate.
The wolf dog didn't bark when he saw Zhang Yang walking to the door, but just looked down at Zhang Yang, obviously, this was a wolf dog that had been strictly trained.
"Brother Mao, I'm at the door." Zhang Yang dialed the phone.
"Ah...... Ha ha...... It's so low-key, quiet, it's coming, it's coming down right away. "Mao Renguo is as enthusiastic as ever.
In less than three seconds, the Mao family's mansion was brightly lit, Mao Renguo walked out in a set of white casual clothes, and opened the door for Zhang Yang in person.
When he opened the door, he didn't feel it from a distance, but when he walked in, Zhang Yang couldn't help but be stunned.
Is this still Mao Renguo?
Hair is meticulously combed.
The clothes he wore were not recognizable, but with his experience working in the noble city, Zhang Yang believed that this was definitely a luxury, and it could be seen from the fine workmanship and the materials used that the clothes were worth a lot.
"Brother, you've finally come to see me." Mao Renguo's expression was very excited.
“……”
Zhang Yang looked at Mao Renguo's face blankly, this is a well-maintained face, white and red, which can be described by the word red light, and, when shaking hands, Zhang Yang saw a Rolex studded with diamonds, of course, the most important thing is that Mao Renguo's beer belly has also disappeared, and he looks as if he is ten years younger......
"Hehe, don't be surprised, brother, this is all your credit, people don't bring it for a lifetime, don't bring it, why be so mean to yourself, besides, money is a thing, you can earn it again after you spend it, come on, you see, I bought a Ferrari sports car, or else, let's drag race together, by the way, I also called someone to come down......" Mao Renguo grabbed Zhang Yang, without the slightest rusty feeling, as if he had not seen an old friend for many years.
"Hehe, no, no, next time, I'm going back to City C tonight, Brother Mao, I'm really happy to see you, you're getting younger and younger, brother, this is a little tea I brought you, it's a very good ......"
"Mmmm, thank you brother, then next time, next time, you must accompany me to race the car, hey, I was so confused before, I didn't know that there was so much fun in life, hey, fortunately, I met you, brother!"
Mao Renguo sighed with emotion, with a bitter and willing expression, and he was sweating on his forehead, it seemed that this old man had welcomed the second spring, and the culprit was his own friend.
In this world, there is one less simple industrialist, and one more degenerate rich man.
Ay......
There was no one in the huge villa, I don't know if there was no one or Mao Renguo asked the servants to avoid it, in short, from the first floor to the third floor, I didn't meet a person.
"Come on, this is my study." Mao Renguo pushed the door open.
"We meet again."
Pushing open the door, Zhang Yang immediately saw a familiar face, the bank president.
"The world is not big." Zhang Yang walked over and clasped hands tightly with the other party, President Chen's appearance here was not unexpected, but very reasonable.
"Come on, let's see if our Comrade Xiao Zhang's calligraphy has improved."
Governor Chen brought Zhang Yang to a huge desk, on which the four treasures of the study had been placed, and even the ink had been polished, and the rice paper had been pressed with a paperweight, just waiting for Zhang Yang to wield.
Zhang Yang did not refuse, and the first time he saw the brush and rice paper, he actually had a strong feeling of writing.
Gently tried the pen and rice paper, re-laid it, slowly pressed it with a paperweight, looked at the slightly yellowed rice paper on the table, and raised his eyebrows......
Drop the pen!
Arrange!
Defeat!
Turning......
The pen walks the dragon snake.
……
A depressing atmosphere permeated the study, looking at Zhang Yang's swaying and jumping arms, the president and Mao Renguo felt their hearts beat violently, and in the air, the depression gradually turned into an overflowing murderous machine.
"Phew!"
The brush is gently placed on the pen holder, making a slight impact sound, like a bell. Zhang Yang took a deep breath, and it seemed that his whole body suddenly relaxed a lot, and the knots that had been in place seemed to be untied.
There was silence in the room.
There was a long silence.
Li Bai "Chivalrous Journey"
Zhao Keman Hu Ying, Wu Hook Shuang Xueming. The silver saddle shines on the white horse, like a shooting star.
Kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles. Brushing off the clothes and going away, hiding deep with the name.
……
Mao Renguo doesn't know calligraphy, but his eyes are always on it, with a reluctant expression, this calligraphy is full of tension and penetration, and the force penetrates the back of the paper.
Mao Renguo is to watch the excitement, and the president is to watch the doorway, the president is a master of calligraphy, so he can naturally see the mystery inside.
Killing Spirit!
What a strong killing atmosphere!
Looking at the turning point of the stroke, it was extremely sharp, as if Zhang Yang was not holding a pen to write, but a nine-ring broadsword.
Especially when it was written that "kill one person in ten steps, and don't stay for a thousand miles", the sharp killing intent jumped on the paper, as if someone was really killing with a sword.
After a long silence, President Chen finally spoke.
"The words of the little brother have already entered the wood, and it seems that I will not be able to reach this state in my life." Governor Chen let out a long sigh.
"Laughing." Looking at this word, Zhang Yang sighed inexplicably, it's been a long time, it's been a long time, it's been a long time to pursue this feeling, but when it really reaches this realm, there is a kind of loss, I remember the first time I saw the battle sticker written by the strong Dahe, I was shocked at the time, I thought that there should not be that kind of killing handwriting in the world, I didn't expect that a few months later, I actually reached that kind of realm.
Things look like people, and the current big river doesn't know that he is hiding in that corner and waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on the emperor.
Life is so helpless, so instantaneous.
Power is not easy to come by, and losing it is a matter between thoughts.
Those who are in power in the world, how could they have thought that they would lose power one day?
couldn't help it, Zhang Yang glanced at the governor beside him, there is no doubt that the governor is this kind of authoritative figure, and his future is likely to be a thought.
"Hehe, little brother, don't worry, thanks to the last enlightenment, someone Chen now looks down on money, and what should be dealt with has been dealt with, in fact, when the power reaches a certain point, you can enjoy endless wealth above board, why bother doing those frightening things every night." President Chen seemed to know what Zhang Yang was thinking, and smiled calmly.
"Congratulations to the elder brother, the elder brother is considered to have attained the Tao, haha, the way of being an official is like asking, pay attention to the heart, pay attention to the line, pay attention to a kind of detachment from the world, those who are in a high position but are trapped by money, not only have a greedy heart, but also lack a trade-off, in fact, for the official, it should be given up first, and then taken, this is the highest state of being an official, many people know this truth, but it is reversed, first take and then give up, as everyone knows, this before and after, transfer the position, play a subtle role...... Hey......"
"Good, good! It's a good way to give up, if you don't see the little brother himself, just hearing this, someone Chen will definitely misunderstand that the little brother is also a person of officialdom. In fact, the knowledge of officialdom originated in China, but on the contrary, it lags behind the United States, and American politicians are deeply aware of this, they are all giving up first and then taking, and as officials in the United States, most of them are in power to establish a wide range of contacts, do some practical things for the people and pave a way for themselves to give up, hey...... It's a pity, it's a pity, how many people take risks because of the Chinese saying that people take tea and cool down......"
"Hehe, Chinese as officials, there is a right not to use, expired and invalid, in fact, the Chinese are the most particular about the world to pay attention to the benevolence of the people, but often in the official just want to obtain immediate benefits, ignore some real shopping mall games and official skills, and go into the sideways."
Zhang Yang sighed again, Chinese are officials for short-term interests, while Westerners are officials for the long-term interests of the family, so it is difficult for China to have younger generations inherit their ancestors as high-ranking officials, can only inherit earth-shattering wealth, and it is difficult to inherit political legacy, Western countries on the contrary, especially the United States, so, this kind of country has the Lincoln family, the Bush family, the Clinton family, the father is president, the son is president, and the grandson continues to be president......
What is money when political forces are intertwined?
Money is not a thing, money is just a piece of waste paper.
History has proven that political families will not be short of money, there are a number of businessmen who invest in these people, ask for money, it is easy, sponsorship, leak a little investment intention, arrange a few speeches, publish a few books, this money is easier than greed, and it is above board, there is no need to hide in the province, and the people will not complain.
Rather than ordinary people, they prefer to be officials who gain wealth after leaving office, rather than when they are in power.
"Little brother, I don't know something, look at the little brother's words and deeds and the artistic conception of calligraphy, the little brother should be doing well, but, look at you put pen to paper, between the yin and yang turns and frustrations, it makes it difficult to breathe, it seems, the little brother should not appear in this situation......, the calligrapher, the heart, the little brother is a successful person, but he actually wants to use calligraphy to vent, it seems that the little brother should be emotionally entangled......"
"Ahem...... That one...... Ay...... If you don't mention it, don't mention it......" Zhang Yang's face flushed and said embarrassedly.
"Hahaha......!"
"Haha......!"
……
The president and Mao Renguo looked at each other and immediately burst out laughing.
"Zhang Yang, people are not romantic, these truths, we don't need to say, hehe, who hasn't been young and crazy? We can't give advice by ourselves. Mao Renguo said with a smile.
"People don't have a romantic affair with young people......"
Zhang Yang picked up the pen again and wrote on the rice paper "People are not romantic boys", the pen is elegant, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, like a picture scroll of a handsome son flying away in the wind.
"Zhang Yang, you are the smartest young man I have ever seen in my life." Looking at Zhang Yang's calligraphy work, which was very different from the beginning style, the president sighed.
"Laughing, there are many, many geniuses in this world, but they are just not discovered."
"No, Zhang Yang, I see a lot of geniuses, some people in high positions are not geniuses born, each has its own strengths, but, really can see through the first opportunity, not much, really not much, Zhang Yang, if you are interested in the career, I can introduce you path, I believe, in less than five years, you will be able to take charge of one side, with your wisdom and ability to grasp the overall situation, it is easy to do political achievements, ten years, maybe, not ten years, you can become a party member, are you interested?" The president said with a serious face.
Hearing the president's words, Mao Renguo's eyebrows jumped, and he suddenly felt a trace of nervousness, which will be related to the development of the Mao family business.
Decade!
It takes ten years to become a big man, even if Mao Renguo doesn't know much about officialdom, he can hear that if he publicizes this kind of character, he can climb to the level of a provincial governor in ten years......
What about twenty years?
What about thirty years?
The more Mao Renguo thinks about it, the more excited he becomes, Zhang Yang is still young, only in his twenties, if the president's judgment is correct, then, Zhang Yang's future will be limitless, and Mao Renguo can be sure that since the president said, he will definitely pave a road for Zhang Yang to become an official, Mao Renguo feels that his blood is boiling, if the Mao family also joins this long-term investment, what kind of glory will it usher in for the family......
"Thank you, brother, ten years is too long for me." Zhang Yang put down the brush and said lightly.
"Don't think about it?" The president looked disappointed.
"Brother, I'm not here." Zhang Yang said decisively.
"Brother, there will be countless opportunities in life, now, this is your opportunity, with me, with Brother Renguo, I believe that it will not take ten years."
"Thank you brother for your kindness, I have made up my mind, come, let's talk about the issues we all care about, and help me analyze why the price of iron ore is so weird." Zhang Yang smiled and walked to the computer desk and turned on the computer.
"Okay!" The president glanced at Mao Renguo and said with a wry smile.
"You take a look first, I made a few cups of tea, patronized to read and write, the tea forgot to brew, this person, as soon as he gets old, his surname will be forgetful......"
Soon, the aroma of tea overflowed.
Zhang Yang sat in his chair and refreshed some data, while the governor stood behind and watched, all with a focused expression.
The data kept refreshing, and Zhang Yang and the president's brows were getting tighter and tighter.
Iron ore and some steel are still being traded, while prices are soaring.
If Zhang Yang is still a layman, as a provincial bank president, he is much more sensitive to those data......
"That's not right!"
"No, why is this happening?"
The president was shocked by the price that kept refreshing, moved a round leather chair to sit next to Zhang Yang, grabbed the mouse and carefully observed some data, including some purchases and shipments, because the two were too focused, Mao Renguo forgot to take the tea he served.
"What's wrong?"
"Lao Mao, look at the price of this steel." The president motioned for Mao Renguo to watch.
"Hmm...... Yes...... Another two hundred and seventy-one tons?! Damn, it's been less than three hours! Mao Renguo was shocked and actually scolded a sentence of Internet language.
"Yes, it looks like the price is going to soar, could it be that someone is hype?" The president said with a serious face.
"Although there is a possible surname, but, very small, after all, the amount of steel design is very large, this kind of anti-market speculation, even if it is to invest hundreds of billions, will not have much impact on the market, after all, now the global financial crisis, the demand for energy and minerals has dropped significantly, if you really want to speculate, the target will not be on iron ore and finished steel, not to mention, the trading volume of some special steel is also increasing significantly......," Zhang Yang said.
"Yes, I think so too, judging from the types of metals traded, not only steel, but all kinds of rare metals seem to be soaring, but it is only because of the large amount just now that people feel that the changes are too great." The governor nodded.
"Don't worry, 60% of the steel needed for our Mao's investment real estate project has been prepared, and if it comes to 40% use, I believe that the price has fallen just now, and this obvious anti-market speculation cannot last long." Mao Renguo said disapprerovingly.
"Wrong, you are just one, and the bank is related to a lot of non-performing loans, if this price increase does not stop, the bank's non-performing loans will increase by one-fifth, and all metal-related enterprises and manufacturers will go bankrupt and close their doors, and there is no way to continue......"
"Why the hell is this happening?" Zhang Yang looked at the constantly refreshing transactions and had a feeling of horror.
"There are only two possibilities, the first is that the international investment is a few molecules, but this possibility is zero. Second, there will be war! ”
"War!" Zhang Yang's heart skipped a beat.
"Yes, there is only such an incentive to buy all metals in the event of war, but this is not in line with reality, if there were countries that are equipped for war, they will not be so eager, this is simply to the point of madness, if it is really to prepare for war, it will inevitably attract the attention of all countries......"
"War!"
"War!"
