Just as Fang Mingyuan was worried, when the news of bird flu broke out, the price of soybeans in the international market did drop slightly, but then stabilized again.People are still waiting for further news, whether the bird flu will spread in China or even Asia, and whether the US government will officially issue a ban on the domestic cattle industry from using meat and bone meal as feed.

This made Fang Mingyuan and others breathe a sigh of relief. As long as the bird flu does not break out rapidly and cause the price of soybeans in the international market to drop sharply, then there is room for maneuver.And if the price of soybeans goes down in a slide, although they won't be in a mess, the income from the previous stage will be greatly reduced.And the plan for the next phase may have to be drastically changed.

On January [-]th, Yu Dongfeng and Lang Botao were invited by Fang Mingyuan to go north to Pingchuan.

In Fang Mingyuan's study in the Fang family mansion in the ancient city of Pingchuan, the three of them sat together.

"The Ukrainian soybean contract is really a pity!" Yu Dongfeng said with regret.Even at the beginning of last year, he did not expect that in the international market, by chance, the price of soybeans would skyrocket to today's height!If there had been no bird flu incident, perhaps the price of soybeans would have doubled in early [-] at the beginning of this year!He finally understood why Fang Mingyuan had started to prepare for soybean production and futures early on. It was quite astonishing that such a large commodity could have such a rise.

Of course, Fang Mingyuan knew that the Ukrainian soybean purchase contract was exchanged for the special steel formula.I didn't feel anything at the time, but now that I think about it, I feel a little regretful. That contract was a bit cheap to transfer. If it was before China announced the bird flu epidemic, those Ukrainians.There will be a greater price to pay.

On the side, Ruo Botao, the president of Hong Kong Baifusheng Investment Company, also nodded slightly. Although it was only a few dozen days, Fang Mingyuan had at least given up tens of millions of dollars in profits.

Fang Mingyuan laughed dumbly and said: "Brother Yu, Mr. Ran, this time I invite the two of you to come here, just to ask you one thing." For this kind of thing, the timing could be so just right, as long as he thinks that he has earned up.Will suffice.

"What's the matter?" Yu Dongfeng immediately cheered up.It is obviously impossible for Fang Mingyuan to invite innovation to come to Pingchuan.Ran Botao also looked at Fang Mingyuan expectantly.

"The two of you should close out your soybean futures as soon as possible, and then we'll be ready to go short!" Fang Mingyuan said seriously.Fang Mingyuan was somewhat surprised by the appearance of bird flu, so he felt that it was necessary to end his long positions ahead of schedule and instead sell short positions.

Yu Dongfeng and Ran Botao were taken aback for a moment, and then they laughed knowingly. In fact, on the way to Pingchuan, the two of them guessed that Fang Mingyuan invited them to Pingchuan for this reason.The two are on their way.They also exchanged opinions with each other, and they all believed that the international market price of soybeans was obviously on the high side. In just one year, the price almost doubled.This price is already quite astonishing for soybeans with a global annual output of more than [-] million tons.

Although the price of soybeans has soared this year, it is true that China's purchasing power has greatly increased.As well as various factors such as the reduction of soybean production in the United States and the outbreak of mad cow disease, but Yu Dongfeng and Huang Botao can be sure that there must be international capital behind this.In fact, strictly speaking.They are also one of the fuel.Since international capital is fueling the flames, the inflated price will only have one result when it cannot get strong support, that is, it will collapse like the Nasdaq index at the beginning!

The outbreak of mad cow disease in the United States has not been short, and many countries in the world have announced a ban on American beef, but the U.S. government still has no intention of prohibiting the domestic cattle industry from using meat and bone meal feed.At the same time, bird flu broke out in Huaxia. Although it is said that only one city in a province adjacent to Vietnam has appeared, both of them believe that with the level of China's domestic breeding industry, since bird flu has appeared, it may be impossible. It will not be easily extinguished, and it is likely to affect multiple provinces.And in this way, the number of poultry that needs to be culled will be an extremely considerable number, perhaps even more amazing than the original 100 million in the Netherlands!
The culling of such an astonishing number of poultry will inevitably have a great impact on Huaxia's breeding industry. Not only will the existing farmers suffer heavy losses, but it will also discourage many people who originally planned to enter this industry.Moreover, after such a huge number of poultry is culled, it will inevitably greatly reduce the feed demand of Huaxia breeding industry.Soybean meal after extracting oil from soybeans is an important raw material for making feed.

The high soybean price has put enormous cost pressure on many oil mills, and if they lose the profits from soybean meal, the profits that can be left can be said to be pitiful.Moreover, Huaxia Enterprises had already purchased millions of tons of soybeans before the new year... These factors combined, and both of them believed that the international market price of soybeans had a great risk of falling!When they came to see Fang Mingyuan this time, the two originally thought that if Fang Mingyuan didn't talk to them about this issue, they should also talk to Fang Mingyuan. Soybean futures should be prepared to close their hands in advance and go short.

Although it is said that doing so may lose some of the benefits that could have been obtained, it avoids greater risks.Although their funds are strong, they are insignificant compared with the total amount of international capital "floating" in the international futures market.Obviously, Fang Mingyuan also noticed this problem, which saved them a lot of trouble.

Fang Mingyuan also laughed. From the smiles of the two of them, he already knew that everyone had reached a consensus, and dealing with smart people was peace of mind.

"Young Master Fang, can you tell us your personal opinion, what price will the international market price of soybeans fall to?" Yu Dongfeng laughed.Yu Dongfeng has long admired Fang Mingyuan's business vision. In early 13.00, he reminded Dongfeng that the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against the world's major currencies is likely to fall all the way. In the past two years, the trend of the U.S. dollar Sure enough, as Fang Mingyuan said, since the end of February 20.00, one of the notable features in the international financial market has been the continued sharp depreciation of the US dollar against other major currencies in the world.So far, the U.S. dollar has fallen by [-]%, [-]% and [-]% against the Japanese yen, Canadian dollar, and euro, respectively!And there is a further downward trend.And because of Fang Mingyuan's reminder, Yu Dongfeng had already reduced his dollar holdings in time, or turned them into entities.

"The drop is at least one-quarter, probably close to one-third!" Fang Mingyuan said without hesitation. This incident of soybean plummeting has caused half of the domestic oil extraction industry to fall, and international capital can be said to have taken control of the domestic industry. The oil extraction industry and the soybean meal industry are unforgettable pains for the Chinese people.Yu Dongfeng and Huan Botao took a deep breath at the same time. Although the decline is not extremely tragic, for soybean buyers, it is enough to make many people collapse.

"There are many manufacturers in China who will suffer a lot this time!" Ran Botao sighed softly.Although I don’t know when the price of soybeans in the international market will start to decline, but as long as it starts in the first half of the year, it is conceivable that these domestic oil producers who have purchased a huge amount of soybeans from the second half of last year to now, but have not hedged in the futures market , the pressure will be great, and the high cost will make them cry without tears, and may even face the crisis of bankruptcy.

"It's going to be a terrible loss!" Fang Mingyuan said.Due to the hype of international capital, the price of soybeans in the international market is inflated, and there may be a shocking decline. It is not that he did not remind domestic officials, and some experts published articles in some well-known media, but everyone ignored this. Warning, not only is he desperately purchasing, but he doesn't even do hedging in the futures market, what can he do?With hedging, at least the profit can be guaranteed, and the underwear will not be lost in the end.

The three of them were silent for a moment, but they quickly put this helplessness behind them. In the shopping mall, it was an invisible battlefield. Real guns and live ammunition, but what is harvested on the battlefield is human life, and what is harvested in the mall is the wealth they have accumulated for many years!Instead of letting this feast be enjoyed by foreign capital, it is better to enjoy it by yourself!At least this wealth is still in the hands of the Chinese people.

Fang Mingyuan hoped that the two of them could form a Hong Kong-funded company to acquire these domestic oil extraction companies at the right time to ensure that they would not fall into the hands of international capital.Grain and oil are the foundation of a country's stability, especially in a country with a huge population like Huaxia. There must be no major mistakes, otherwise, it may cause huge troubles.

Moreover, this is also an important part of ensuring that the Huaxia oil extraction industry does not become a pusher of foreign genetically modified soybeans invading the domestic edible oil market. It was precisely because half of the domestic oil extraction industry fell into the hands of international capital that these oil extraction companies purchased a large number of U.S. soybeans. Soybeans not only exerted influence on the widespread use of genetically modified soybeans in Brazil and Argentina, but also made it difficult for China's local soybean industry, with the planting area shrinking year by year and the output constantly shrinking!
