Chapter 595: A Great Victory
At the beginning of 2019, the world is not very calm, and a news from China is the first to shock the world energy market.
China officially announced the new energy development outline, claiming that China's self-developed Lotus reactor nuclear power plant technology has matured and passed various verifications, China will completely stop the approval and construction of new thermal power, start building at least 100 million kilowatts of nuclear power within 10 years, and strive to use nuclear power to completely replace thermal power generation in 20 years.
As soon as China's official new energy development program was announced, it caused a thousand waves with one stone, and the world energy market immediately reacted violently.
Although the emergence of the Duke lotus pile has made the international energy market have expected, coal and oil and other fossil energy futures prices have begun to gradually decline, but no one expected that this day will come so quickly, China's official policy development outline, is equivalent to officially announcing that the future of fossil energy will be bleaker.
Because the energy demand from China now occupies a large part of the international energy market, if the energy demand of China's large market is greatly attenuated, the total demand of the entire energy market will inevitably shrink sharply, which will directly lead to the future of the international stone energy price plummet, in the past few decades, the price of everything that the Chinese market needs will grow wildly, such as oil, coal, iron ore and so on have risen several times and several times.
This has virtually increased the huge cost of China's development process, so that those countries with resources have made a lot of money on China, and today, it is their turn to make some blood.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for international energy suppliers to find that orders for futures for forward energy products from China began to decline significantly.
Immediately after that, China's major power generation giants announced that the construction of 15 million kilowatts of nuclear power generation projects would start this year, which really shows that the Chinese side is not just paying lip service.
In the high energy-consuming field of seawater desalination, in addition to the construction of 4 large-scale desalination plants in the Gulf region, China will also build 4 large-scale desalination plants in North China.
Although the Abu Dhabi plant had suffered a bizarre accident, the test results proved that the accident had nothing to do with the nuclear leakage, and through this accident, experts in the field were surprised to find that the safety protection measures of the Lotus reactor technology far exceeded the level of existing nuclear power plants, and the complete shutdown of a nuclear power plant that was running at full capacity in a few minutes is by no means possible for other nuclear power plants now, not to mention that the Lotus reactor nuclear power plant can also facilitate maintenance-free restart.
This fully shows that the active and passive safety protection measures of the Lotus reactor nuclear power plant are trustworthy, so the Abu Dhabi accident has played a positive role in promoting the demand that was originally suppressed in Europe due to trade protection policies and doubts about safety.
These long-pent-up demands poured out all at once, and Dongfang Nuclear Power began to be overwhelmed, and cooperation negotiations were carried out one after another.
The total installed capacity of nuclear power generation and seawater desalination projects added up, and the production tasks that Dongfang Nuclear Power needed to complete in 2019 alone exceeded 30 million kilowatts. This strong demand has forced Dongfang Nuclear Power to subcontract part of its business to its European counterparts.
On the one hand, there is a gap in production capacity, and on the other hand, it is also because after the two sides have formulated relevant standards, they also need to make some gestures to express their willingness to jointly develop this market. Since the general contract of the entire integrated construction is in the hands of Dongfang Nuclear Power, the most lucrative piece of the entire industry falls into the mouth of Dongfang Nuclear Power.
Under such circumstances, the futures prices of the world energy market and the stocks of energy raw material suppliers began to fall in an avalanche, and this round of long-overdue decline made the short-selling speculative fund that Lao Li's long-term layout was a great success.
"Mr. Cai, Mr. Li Hao, after last week's fierce turmoil in the energy market, now our investment income in the futures market has exceeded 200 percent," at the joint meeting of the three principals, Eric of the old Li family reported to the two collaborators with a happy face, "As the state announced the plan to replace thermal power with nuclear power, coal futures have plummeted, making our short investment in this area have made a big gain, and now it has basically fallen to a historic low." We have started to close short orders and reap profits. ”
"If it weren't for the interference of our operations with mysterious money from the United States, our gains would have been much more impressive, but now that everyone sees the future trend, the market operation has become very difficult now, and it is even difficult for us to sell short. The two will see if we will temporarily withdraw from the speculation in this futures market. ”
When the first plan was to carry out the promotion of the lotus pile, the three of them expected that the energy market would fluctuate greatly, so they took out 40 billion US dollars to speculate on this energy futures.
It's just that because everyone agrees that sooner or later there will be such a day, so although there are small ups and downs in the middle, the whole investment is in a state of profit and loss fluctuation most of the time, the three still adhere to the long-term layout and continue to short, but because there seem to be new funds later, this is naturally Snyder monitored Duke's capital movements and used his power for personal gain, revealing the news to several investment funds that are close to him, so that these funds smelled.
Otherwise, the short-selling scale of the three will be larger, and they will also reap more in this avalanche of energy market crashes.
But Rao is like this, and he reaped 200% of this huge profit in about a year, which made Li Hao, who is doing business, very satisfied. Although he did not invest much in this feast, only $2 billion, or a mere twentieth share, now reaped $4 billion in real money, which is almost the income of his family in the previous decades.
Therefore, Li Hao is still dissatisfied with this result. "Eric, since it is more difficult to operate in energy speculation now, I think we can shrink it for the time being, and we will take out the profits and invest in nuclear power equipment manufacturing and automobiles, further expand our industry, and continue to look for new opportunities for the rest. I think with our development, not only the domestic economic situation is changing, and even the entire international economic situation will change with our changes, which must contain a lot of investment opportunities, your team is an expert in this regard, we can grasp the industry with one hand, and grasp the finance with one hand. ”
