Chapter 17: The Longest Day (3)
This person's name is Ma Taihua, and he is the deputy general manager of this small brokerage house, a veritable high-level person.
When Liao Chengde took the initiative to come to the door, Ma Taihua was overjoyed and personally became Liao Chengde's agent. He didn't expect that a rich man like Liao Chengde, who is quite famous in the stock market, would think of his brokerage firm, and he threw tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, and what surprised him was that Liao Chengde turned out to be a short seller of the Hang Seng Index.
After hinting a few times, seeing that Liao Chengde had no idea of changing his strategy, Ma Taihua also put away his thoughts, and just reported the changes and floating profits and losses to Liao Chengde every day, anyway, no matter how he operated, there was a lot of commission, and the customer insisted on doing so, and he was helpless.
Liao Chengde has an account in this brokerage firm, in which there are about 300 sell orders, and the margin (margin) is about 4.5 million Hong Kong dollars, which is the largest customer of this brokerage bank, so the whole bank attaches great importance to Liao Chengde's operation.
The brokers also discussed Liao Chengde's operation in private, and they didn't care about this one-way strategy, but they couldn't resist the customer's intentions. Although the Hang Seng Index has been unfavorable recently, the future prospects are still optimistic, and they would have thought that the fragile Hong Kong stock market will be the most affected in the future stock market crash.
Roughly according to the trend of the opening, Liao Chengde's short order has earned him a profit of 1.8 million Hong Kong dollars, which is nearly half of the amount of money he has invested in the futures market.
"What? Earned so much? Liao Chengde was stunned, then shook his head, a little unable to believe the facts in front of him, and glanced at Zhong Shi again.
Liao Xiaohua, who was beside him, was also full of excitement, his hands were tightly twisted together, his face was flushed, and it could be seen that he was trying hard to restrain his emotions and not let himself lose his temper in public.
On the contrary, Zhong Shi, who was standing in front of Liao's father and son, although he didn't look very old, was the most well-cultivated kung fu, and he didn't even blink his eyelids after hearing this astronomical figure, and he still looked light.
Before entering this company, Zhong Shi told Liao Chengde not to reveal his identity and treat him as a passerby who didn't understand anything, so Liao Chengde only dared to sneak at Zhong Shi, hoping to get some instructions from him on how to operate.
"Liao Sheng, what should I do next?" Ma Taihua said excitedly, not noticing Liao Chengde's unnaturalness at all.
"Of course, we will continue to invest our profits in selling!" As soon as Ma Taihua's voice fell, Liao Xiaohua said excitedly. However, as soon as he answered, he was still a little uneasy in his heart, and secretly looked at Zhong Shi, and saw Zhong Shi nodding imperceptibly, so he was relieved.
"Let's get started!" Liao Chengde saw that Liao Xiaohua signaled to him, and he also understood, so he no longer hesitated at the moment, and commanded Ma Taihua with a big grin.
The four of them talked for a long time at the door of the brokerage house, and there was already a front desk waiting beside them, and when they saw that the conversation between the two sides was over, they walked forward with interest and led a few people into the room. The hostess, who was in a good shape, brought out a few cups of coffee at the right temperature, and a pair of big talking eyes glanced at Liao Xiaohua with disgust, blinked provokedly, and withdrew.
Their conversation had already been listened to by the attentive front desk lady, and this beautiful young lady also recognized Liao Xiaohua as a famous rich boy in the city, so she seized an opportunity to flatter Liao Xiaohua, hoping to be noticed by Liao Xiaohua.
Who would have thought that Liao Xiaohua, who was usually merry, didn't even look at her, just politely said "thank you", and looked to the other side. "The goddess is intentional, and King Xiang is ruthless", which made this woman sad for a while.
The Hang Seng Index market in Hong Kong is different from other places in that the margin for each Hang Seng Index contract is only HK$15,000, which means that if the Hang Seng Index falls below 300 points, the contract will be invalid.
The reason why the Hong Kong Futures Exchange Limited has such a regulation is to encourage investors to enter the market, and there are also relevant futures exchanges that judge the market volatility, and believe that the Hang Seng Index will not fluctuate around 300 points, but this situation will obviously be broken today.
At this time, there are at least 100,000 contracts active in the Hang Seng Index market, and there are about more than 100 million funds in the Hang Seng Index futures market.
As soon as the three of them sat down, Ma Taihua confessed, walked out quickly, and issued trading instructions in person.
"Xiaohua, how did you change sex?" Zhong Shi took a sip of coffee, feeling that the taste was not very authentic, so he put down the cup and made fun of Liao Xiaohua.
Looking at the green numbers scrolling on the screen, Liao Xiaohua, who was frowning high, was stunned, and even Liao Chengde was full of puzzlement.
"Didn't you notice that the young lady who entertained us just now threw you a flattering eye?" Zhong Shi had a smile on his face.
"Really?" Liao Xiaohua's face was happy at first, and then he showed a sneering expression, and glanced at Liao Chengde with a weak heart, not knowing what to say.
Liao Chengde snorted dissatisfied, turned his head and pretended not to hear anything, and after coughing lightly, he asked Xiang Zhongshi: "Zhong Sheng, how long do you think the decline will last?" ”
"I don't know!" Zhong Shi's face was straight, and he said solemnly: "It depends on the stock market in other regions and the situation in the United States, as well as what measures the Stock Exchange will take!" ”
In fact, in his heart, this question is bright! Just tomorrow, the chairman of the Stock Exchange, after consulting the Financial Secretary, the Financial Services Department and other parties, announced that Hong Kong stocks will be suspended for four days this week, and will continue trading until next Monday.
Who would have thought that this move would hit the confidence of Hong Kong stock investors even harder, and when the market opened next Monday, investors who were affected by the ripple effect of the general decline in the global stock market sold Hong Kong stocks at any cost, and on Monday, October 26, the Hang Seng Index plummeted by more than 1,000 points, leading to the disgraceful resignation of the chairman of the Stock Exchange.
......Seeing that Zhong Shi, who had always been resourceful, had no idea, Liao Chengde was shocked in his heart, and after thinking about it in his heart, he still didn't have a clue.
"It's still falling!" Liao Xiaohua called up the data of several important Asian capital markets such as the Japanese stock market and the Singapore stock market, which is also a pan-green trend, and he can't help but sigh.
Earlier, he was a little unconvinced of Zhong Shi's judgment, but now it seems that Zhong Shi is undoubtedly right, and the Asian market is already a wailing jiashi.
"Continue to cover the position, and vow to carry out the short position to the end!" Zhong Shi suddenly said in a deep voice. At the end, he solemnly said to Liao Chengde: "Investment is like the road of Huashan, since you have identified a direction, you must go boldly, you must not look at the first two things, otherwise the gains outweigh the losses!" ”
Mount Hua has always been known for its steepness, and its mountain roads are also extremely treacherous and narrow, and if climbers cannot firm their minds, they will inevitably be frightened away by the dangerous situation.
"Besides, even if the Hong Kong stock rises, you will only lose millions of Hong Kong dollars!" Zhong Shi said categorically.
Liao Chengde, who had received Zhong Shi's order, no longer hesitated, nodded resolutely, and the three of them walked out of the lounge and came to the hall.
At this time, the hall was full of people, and the brokers were still busy, with phone calls coming and going, and everyone was placing orders or clearing positions in the loudest voice. At this time, the agents were still divided into two factions, some of them were happy, and some of them were stilting Erlang's legs while broadcasting the numbers to the phone in a timely manner, thinking that they were doing the right thing. Others, with worried faces, listened to the phone while writing something on a piece of paper, and couldn't wipe the big beads of sweat from their foreheads.
"3610, 3609......" Just as the three of them were watching with relish, several agents suddenly shouted loudly. They shouted about the change in the Hang Seng Index, which at this time had fallen by 170 points, approaching the 3,600 mark.
Everyone's movements stopped, looking at the constantly beating numbers on the screen, most of the people who did the wrong direction folded their hands and kept praying to the sky, hoping that the Hang Seng Index could hold the important psychological threshold of 3600, while the people who did the right direction shouted loudly every number that jumped out, with fanatical expressions on their faces, and even their voices were a little hysterical.
"3603, 3602, 3602, 3601, 3600......" In the shouts and prayers of the crowd, the Hang Seng Index struggled slightly at the position of 3602, and broke this important barrier without looking back, and plunged into the 3500 area.
The bulls let out a terrible wail, but in an instant they were drowned out in the cheers of the bears, and some of the brokers even applauded unscrupulously, as if they had just won a big battle.
After a brief period of frenzy, the brokers invariably started to call, report the latest situation to the clients, and then give trading opinions, and suddenly the hall was a busy scene.
"Liao Sheng, I have bought all the floating profits short orders, and now the index is still falling, do you want to continue?" Just when Liao Chengde sighed, Ma Taihua quietly drilled out and said respectfully.
When the Hang Seng Index fell below 3,600 points, the floating profit in Liao Chengde's account had reached nearly three million, which was close to the principal invested by Liao Chengde.
In just a few hours, the profit was nearly doubled, how can this not make investors crazy, how can it not make the futures market hot? There's nothing faster than this!
"Continue to sell, sell wildly, sell at all costs!" Liao Chengde gritted his teeth and said, with a hideous look on his face, which startled Ma Taihua. It seems that the scene just now deeply affected Liao Chengde, making him, an old guy who is dozens of years old, can't help but feel excited.
"What about miniaturization?" Zhong Shi's hand lightly rested on Liao Chengde's shoulder, pulling him back from his crazy state, and Liao Chengde, who had woken up, smiled apologetically and said to Ma Taihua: "I'm sorry, Ma Sheng, just do what you just said!" ”
Ma Taihua turned to leave, secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and involuntarily sighed in his heart: "The stock market and futures market are really a crazy place!" ”
"Miniaturization? I guess it's picking up girls! Zhong Shi smiled slightly, and pointed to Liao Xiaohua, who was not far away and was courteous to the beautiful front desk lady.
