Chapter 83 James Wen ([-])
"Thank you for your honesty. It's just that those things are useless to me. But then, I'm a bit of a gossip. Can you tell me why?" Hu Lin was very interested in this Mr. Wen.

In fact, Hu Lin also had a purpose for asking this question, because there are many reasons for being laid off by the previous company. What if it is because of character?You know, what Hu Lin is looking for is a guy who can really be trusted.

"The reason why I am so honest is to say this reason, because this reason is also related to the investment you want to entrust to me. Through this matter, you can know, and I can know whether we can We have cooperated." Wen Wenli's words were really resounding.

"Very good, I'm all ears." Hu Lin also cooperated very well.

"The reason is also simple. It is the direction of investment. My boss and I have different ideas. My idea is that with the current rising trend of international oil prices, we should invest in new energy, that is, clean energy, such as solar energy. Ethanol (I understand. Hu Lin said). Well, good, but my bosses, they want to increase investment in real estate. Of course, from the current point of view, the real estate industry in the United States is quite hot, which is a good idea option, but I'm not optimistic about it."

"Oh, can you tell me why you are not optimistic about it?" Hu Lin was very curious about this matter.

"It's too simple. Let me give you a simple example. The total population of the mainland is more than 12 billion, but its area is about the same as that of the United States. The total population of the United States is only 3 million. Moreover, Americans live on wheels. Yes, the exorbitant housing prices are not realistic at all. By the way, I am originally from Taiwan.”

"Then what you mean is that investing in real estate is better than returning to the motherland." Hu Lin didn't mind where he was from.

"That's right, real estate in mainland China should continue to boom."

"Very good, Mr. Wen, I'm not used to calling you like that. We people in Northeast China like to call you brother. Brother Wen, I'm very satisfied with your major. However, there is one thing that I have to explain to you." The corner of Hu Lin's mouth Slightly upturned, revealing a playful smile.

The Hu Lin that Wen Wenli said just now really makes sense, nothing else. Of course, as a Hu Lin who travels through the public, I know that the real estate in the United States will collapse in the future, and the collapse will be severe, but people can pass the analysis. If you come to this conclusion, it is very strong, anyway, Hu Lin thinks it is very strong.In his last life, Hu Lin did not study stocks or futures professionally. He just had a rough idea of ​​what was going on in the United States. At most, he could only get some information from the Internet or TV. As for the 'subprime mortgage' that caused the collapse of Lehman Corporation He couldn't figure out what it was, so he needed such a professional to help him.Now, Wen Wenli's performance satisfied Hu Lin very much.

"Okay, tell me." Wen Wenli was also very curious at this time.

"I will not go into new energy, or even stocks in this area."

"Oh? Then what are you going to do?" I became even more curious.

"I want to do futures, I want to do commodity trading, and I want to invest in gold, and of course there are some individual investments. I'm interested in an Internet company. If you can, just help me talk about buying shares. Don't worry, I will repay you according to the partner's price for all of the above, of course, we are not familiar with each other yet, but they are all Chinese, so they are more reassuring than foreigners."

"Can you tell me a little bit about the reason, although I know some of the conditions you mentioned before."

"I can talk about the futures trading of bulk commodities. In fact, this is derived from the new energy you mentioned. Yes, you mentioned new energy, there is ethanol, right? Its raw material is grain, to put it bluntly, it is corn. What do you think? Ah, the higher the oil price, the greater the demand for ethanol, and the faster the corn will be consumed, so I don’t need to talk about the latter.”

In fact, Hu Lin's idea is not because of ethanol. Of course, there are also reasons for this, but it is not the point.Hu Lin came here through time travel, and he knows that in the next few years, the weather conditions in big agricultural countries like Australia, the United States, and China will not be good, that is, the El Niño phenomenon will become more and more severe.Such weather will affect the harvest of many agricultural products, so the price will also rise. For example, the price of soybeans will always go up, so if you trade futures, you can definitely make a profit.

As for Hu Lin, he is not a professional in this field, why would he know these things?It's very simple, there is a life, how fast the soybean oil rises in future generations, the experience of hanging silk is definitely very profound, and there are also a lot of news on the Internet.

yes!Why didn't I think of this!The impact of the relationship is very simple. Moreover, the profit of this futures investment is definitely greater than the profit of new energy. Futures are actually a kind of leverage, which can amplify the income and of course increase the risk. But now Seeing that those things will definitely increase in price, it must be a profit.To be honest, if I could have said this when I was at Lehman, I would definitely not have left.Why!It's too late to meet you!

To put it simply, futures are traded on margin, which is generally 5% of the contract price. Therefore, in this calculation, it can magnify the profit by 20 times. Of course, the same is true for the risk.In addition, it allows short selling. Of course, the truth here is quite complicated. If you are not a professional, you really don’t know how to die. This is why Hu Lin asked for help.

It was just that after hearing Hu Lin's gentle words, he was really overwhelmed by Hu Lin.In the United States, how many football stars are not illiterate?Even if an old lady who earns money to buy vegetables in the stock market said these words, Wen Wenli would not be so shocked, but it is really strange for a star to say them.

"Is the education system in mainland China so good? Then why are there so many international students coming to the United States?" Wen Wenli has raised the issue to the level of the system.

"I really didn't expect that Mr. Hu, as a football star, would have such insights. The mainland is really outstanding and talented!"

What Hu Lin didn't expect was that the messy things made up by this guy made this Taiwanese compatriot suddenly change his view of mainlanders.

"Thank you, thank you. How about it, Brother Wen, are we working together?" The business matters.

"Cooperation, of course we have. Thanks to Mr. Hu's appreciation, Wen Mou naturally needs to be flattered." Wen Wenli was really shocked, and his conditions were really too generous. Partner, what does that mean?That's like a career of your own, much better than any financial consultant.

"Brother Wen is being polite, you can just call me Xiao Hu."

"However, may I ask, Mr. Hu, how did you come up with the things you just said? Could it be someone else said it?" Everyone has curiosity.Anyway, it's hard for Wen Wenli to believe that an NBA star can understand so much, and all the people on Wall Street will lose their jobs.

"Well, can you let me keep it a secret?" In fact, Hu Lin didn't think about how to solve this matter.

"Oh, of course it's fine." Seeing that his boss was unwilling to say it, Wen Wenli naturally didn't force it.
