Chapter 298: Reactions from all sides

Tianyu Fund made a big move, and soon the news spread in the market, and there was an endless stream of sellers coming to the door. Before the end of trading hours in the United States, they not only swapped all their dollar assets for euros, but also closed some options positions and even opened a large long position in euros.

"Mr. Zhong, what the hell is going on?"

After the market closed, Paulson's phone call was the first to come, and without a word of greeting, he went straight to the point, "I heard that you are crazy about buying up euros in the market, is there such a thing?" ”

"Not bad!"

Zhong Shi looked at the phone, and another call also came in at this time, it was Ackerman, he casually took his phone in, and the three of them started talking on a line, "Tianyu Fund is attacking on all fronts today, in addition to being long euro spot, it is also gradually clearing the euro short options on hand and fully turning to long euros." ”

"What?"

Ackerman and Paulson were both surprised, and at that moment, others called one after another, and Bell Stone simply connected everyone to a line and repeated what he had just said.

"What happened?"

"Is it true that the situation in Europe has improved, or has our operations been terminated?" ”

"There is now a growing public opinion in Germany to leave the eurozone. France has also had problems, and although nothing has been seen so far, as long as this high-pressure public opinion posture is maintained, it is inevitable that they will fall into a debt crisis sooner or later. There are also some countries in central Europe, led by Hungary, where a debt crisis can be said to be a high probability thing. In this case, how did you just stop it? ”

Jim, who has always been a lone word. Chanos made an unprecedented call, analyzed the current situation, and then asked in confusion, "Tell us your logic." Mr. Zhong, what the hell is going on? ”

"Gentlemen, you don't really think that what happened in Germany and Hungary was accidental, do you?"

Zhong Shi did not answer these questions immediately, but asked lightly, "Europe has already introduced a rescue mechanism." Britain has joined in. If there will be no blockbuster default next time, the current situation in Europe is already difficult to reverse. So I don't think the risk of a large-scale debt crisis in the next phase will happen again, and some countries may still have trouble, but the big picture for the euro is basically over here. ”

"Wait!"

Jim. Chanos reacted quickly, and immediately realized the meaning of Zhong Shi's words, "Mr. Zhong, you just said that the phenomenon in Germany and Hungary is not accidental, so what is the situation?" Oh my God, you can't be behind it, right? ”

Hear Jim. Chanos's words. Everyone immediately came to their senses and gasped.

If the Hungarian and German affairs were manipulated by Jongshi behind his back, it is not difficult to understand why he is in a hurry to exchange all the dollars he has for euros today.

As soon as they thought about the whole thing, they all broke out in a cold sweat, they had received Zhong Shi's order to close their positions a few days ago, if they still broke in and shorted today, the rebound behind them would definitely swallow them.

"Why don't we know?"

The horror was naturally followed by a fury, according to today's closing price. The positions of the online crowd can be increased by at least tens of millions of dollars. Feeling betrayed, Paulson was the first to jump out, although he did not dare to get angry at Bellstone. But anyone could hear the anger between his words, "Aren't we a team?" Why don't we know these things? ”

The others did not speak, but none jumped out to contradict Paulson's words, and it was clear that they also felt deeply betrayed in this matter.

"Do you have any losses?"

Zhong Shi didn't move, but just said a faint word, and all Paulson's anger was extinguished. "Now that the funds you have in hand have been exchanged for dollars, you have only lost a small profit, are you going to turn against me?"

In the end, he was already in a loud voice, "The most important thing is the most important thing. Didn't you betray me a few days ago? Now everyone is going back and forth, which is considered to be even. ”

“……”

Paulson was like a duck choked by the neck, unable to say a word.

The others didn't speak, but they were horrified. Although they betrayed Zhongshi two days ago, it was really a desire for profit. Later, although Zhong Shi helped them out of the siege, they also thought that this matter was over. But in fact, Zhong Shi did not completely expose the matter, but did another thing to stir up the market after notifying them to close the position.

If they hadn't called, Bell Stone probably wouldn't have told them that there might be a reversal in the market. And once the euro rises, the floating profit on their options begins to decrease, and even in the end, they may lose money.

As soon as they thought of this, everyone only felt that a cold rose from the soles of their feet, and the scorching summer afternoon with a heavy heat seemed to have turned into a cold and unbearable winter.

His scheming is too deep!

It's all in everyone's mind.

But the saddest thing is that they are still in the same boat, and so far Zhongshi has no intention of abandoning them, and they also have to rely on Zhongshi's strategy and means. So even if Zhong Shi punished them, they dared not speak out.

"Gentlemen, are there any other questions?"

Seeing that the atmosphere had fallen into silence, Zhong Shi's face showed a satisfied look, he knew very well that his goal had been achieved, and after leaving a few minutes for everyone to think fully, he pretended to be okay and asked, "If there is no problem, today's conversation will end here." ”

"Wait!"

Dai Lio opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Zhong, I understand what you mean, it is true that we were not kind enough in the past, and now we also admit it. Like you said, that's fair. But what I'm trying to say is that I don't want this to happen again. When did we stop as a team? ”

"Yes, yes!"

Paulson quickly chimed in, "This is really ......" He thought for a while, but could not find a word to accurately describe this matter, so he had to give up in despair, "It's better not to happen again." He concluded.

Others have also taken a stand. The meaning is much the same.

"Good!"

After the purpose of beating the other party was achieved, Zhong Shi naturally didn't want them to be wary of himself, although it was inevitable to have mustard, but at this time he didn't think much about their feelings, "From the next trading day, everyone will close the short option in the market as soon as possible." Take it when you see it. Also, if you want to trade for a short term, I'll let you know, so be it! ”

Without waiting for anyone to speak, he decisively hung up the phone.

Hearing the beeping sound, the rest of the people looked at each other, and soon they each hung up.

……

While Zhong Shi and others were conducting a conference call, a conference call was also quietly going on in Europe.

"At present, there are many top hedge funds in the United States, such as Quantum Fund, Castle Fund, Bridgewater Fund, Commodity Fund, Paulson Fund, Pershing Square Fund, etc."

A man with a deep voice was gushing on the phone, "These are the institutions that sold large euro spot on the market when Spain was relegated two days ago. They have one thing in common, which is that the amount of a single transaction is very large, far exceeding the market average. ”

"So what's your conclusion?"

A female voice with a tone of firmness and intolerance for refusal sounded at the same time, "What can these institutions say?" ”

"Putting aside the investment banks that have been criticized by us, these institutions should be the culprits of the recent collapse of the euro!"

The male voice was stunned for a moment, and then quickly explained, "There is another very strange phenomenon, according to our contacts with Bank of America and investment banks. They didn't exceed their usual trading limits, which meant at a time of banking crisis in Spain. They were unaware of it beforehand, or they weren't involved. ”

"Combined with this crucial point, we can conclude that the institutions that have been making waves in the market, in addition to the US investment banks that we have been blaming us, are also these hedge funds that I mentioned above. And when it comes to means and ruthlessness. These funds are far more excessive than investment banks, which still have operations throughout Europe, and these funds are like termites, devouring everything and running away, leaving nothing but a mess. ”

After the male voice finished speaking. There was silence on the phone, and no one spoke for a long time.

Half a day later, another sharp male voice asked, "How can we stop them, or punish them?" Is it through economic sanctions or legal trials? ”

"It's hard!"

The deep voice hesitated for a moment before finally reluctantly saying, "At least so far, we haven't caught any of them. It is almost non-binding to try to make a statement, and I don't recommend it, because it will also cause resentment in the market. ”

"Wait!"

The female voice sounded again, "I understand what you said. But I said that if there was a blatant breach of contract by a country, would it wipe them out? ”

"A blatant breach of contract by a country?"

The thick male voice was stunned, and after thinking for a while, he asked tentatively, "This will definitely work, and it will be able to catch them all, but the question is which country will do this?" The price is simply too great. ”

"You don't have to worry about that!"

The female voice just said one sentence and then stopped talking, "Also, what's going on in Hungary?" Does anyone know? ”

"One of the top officials in their party just doesn't choose what to say!"

Another hoarse voice rang out, "It must be an internal struggle, and they want to pass on the economic pressure to the previous government, so they made up such a lie." I have already dealt with their government, and their debt is kept at a reasonable level, not at all as serious as in Greece. ”

"But their words have already caught the attention of the market!"

The female voice reluctantly, "I don't want to see any accidents happen at this time. Tell the Hungarian government not to cause trouble at this time if they want to join the eurozone and remain in the EU. Otherwise, there is no guarantee that something will happen. ”

"What do you want them to do?"

The hoarse voice was silent for a moment, and finally asked with a little bitterness, "I'll tell them your opinion truthfully." ”

"Settle this matter as soon as possible!"

The female voice said in an unquestioning tone, "I can understand their internal situation very well, but it is better not to make this contradiction widely known." Tell them to make a statement to stabilize the market as soon as possible, and at the same time warn them that it is better not to have something similar happen next time. ”

"Got it!"

He replied in a low voice.

"One more thing!"

The first rich male voice took the opportunity to say, "Just today, a Hong Kong fund bought a large amount of euros, the amount of which exceeded 5 billion. I've been wondering if this fund, like the American institutions, is also full of malice towards the euro. ”

"5 billion euros?"

The female voice sneered disdainfully, "And it's a fund in Hong Kong, what can they do?" I don't want all cats and dogs to be stuffed in, I want the main body. Remember, it's the main body! (To be continued.) )
