Shenhao starts from the lottery of 1 million

Chapter 114: US$388 billion is just an appetizer

The international crude oil futures market is greatly affected by external factors. From March to July this year, major international events continued to occur. The oil pipeline of the American Chevron Oil Company ruptured, resulting in a decrease in daily crude oil production in Nigeria.

Nigerian non-governmental armed groups have stated that they will continue to launch attacks on oil facilities in the Niger Delta region.

Under pressure from the international community, Iran still maintains a tough stance on uranium enrichment research, and terrorist activities have emerged in Saudi Arabia and Iraq. The peak of summer driving in the United States and concerns about oil supply disruptions during hurricane season.

The hostage conflict between Israel and the Palestinians intensified, and war broke out between Israel and Lebanon.

BP began shutting down oil fields due to a leak in its largest oil field pipeline in the United States.

As a result, international crude oil futures prices fluctuated violently, with oil prices falling from the original US$58 per

The price per barrel continued to rise, fluctuating at a high price of US$70/barrel for several months, and once reached an ultra-high price of US$77.05/barrel.

When the international crude oil futures price exceeded 77 US dollars a barrel, Yi Anguo had already reminded Chen Jianjun to close his long position and short the international crude oil futures.

Chen Jianjun had already made a lot of money. After hearing Yi Anguo's reminder that he needed to think more, he quickly went to the Financial Investment Department and the International Crude Oil Futures Investment Project Team in person and ordered the traders to quickly handle their long positions. Close all positions and short international crude oil futures.

After seeing the profit data on the account, I was even more happy, thinking that I finally don't have to worry about the construction funds of Huafeng Industrial Park for the time being.

I hope that if I backhand short international crude oil futures, I can make another big profit.

But there should be nothing to worry about. With a good son-in-law under his control at all times, it is probably impossible not to make a lot of money!

Of course, the same is true for Yi Anguo himself. At this time, the number of international crude oil futures contracts he held remained at 65 lots. When the international crude oil futures price climbed to US dollars a barrel, he increased his holdings to lots.

When the international crude oil futures price exceeded 68 US dollars, the holdings were increased to lots again.

After all positions were closed, the total assets of his futures account reached US$4.38 million, with a profit of US$3.88 million, which took five months.

After entering August, the international situation has stabilized, the Lebanese-Israeli conflict has been effectively resolved, and the duration of the hurricane is quite short.

The U.S. government began an investigation into whether BP manipulated the U.S. crude oil and unleaded gasoline markets, cracking down on speculation in the international oil market.

The world economic growth rate has declined, and the U.S. economy has slowed significantly. The U.S. Energy Information Administration has lowered its forecast for global daily crude oil demand growth this year and next.

The peak summer driving season in the United States has ended, and Chevron has discovered a huge oil field in the Gulf of Mexico.

The panic surrounding the Iranian nuclear crisis has been fully digested. The above factors have caused oil prices to fall continuously. In late October, international crude oil futures prices fell back to US$56 per barrel.

It only took two months to go from over US$77 per barrel to US$56 per barrel. It took five months to go from US$58 per barrel to US$77 per barrel. The rate of decline was obviously much faster. .

Of course, others cannot know this information in advance, but Yi Anguo has indeed mastered this information by virtue of his advantage as a reborn person. So, do you still need to choose whether to go long or short international crude oil futures?

When it’s time to go long, decisively go long, when it’s time to go short, decisively go short.

This time, Yi Anguo directly transferred US$3.88 million, leaving only US$5000 million in margin.

But this time he did not take a conservative approach, but directly bought 72 short orders. After the international crude oil futures price fell back to US dollars a barrel, he added another short orders. At this point, he The short positions held reached an astonishing lots.

Such a move seems risky, but it is also a tentative behavior by Yi Anguo. At most, 5000 million US dollars will be wiped out.

But if nothing unexpected happens, not only will you make a huge profit, but you will also be prepared in advance for international crude oil futures prices to skyrocket in the second half of next year and then plummet in the second half of 2008.

Because, if it is no problem to hold 50,000 short international crude oil futures lots at the same time, then it is estimated that you should hold 100,000 lots at the same time. Since there are futures contracts, 200,000 lots is not a problem.

Yes, for Yi Anguo, now is just a warm-up. What he really wants to plot is the period from 2007 to the end of 2008, and even the period including 2009.

The international crude oil futures market fluctuates violently, with prices rising and falling sharply. This is the best time for him to make money in the international crude oil market.

The $320 million the car currently earns is nothing more than an appetizer, and Yi Anguo doesn't take it seriously at all.

But now that there is $3.88 million in funding, there is so much that can be done.

For example, we will continue to increase investment in Jingjing Online Supermarket, speed up the launch of Jingjing Online Supermarket in major cities across the country, and speed up the establishment of logistics systems.

Since he was relieved of his duties at Chen's Enterprise, Fao Anguo has become much more relaxed than in the past. In addition to spending time with his children and women, he has also been engaged in the acquisition of mahogany and the production of samples of mahogany furniture.

Since the 1990s, the styles of mahogany furniture have basically not changed much. The styles of mahogany furniture produced by every mahogany furniture factory are almost the same.

In recent years, there have been some changes, mainly in Zhejiang Province. Ming and Qing style furniture has become popular.

However, the influence in Guangdong Province is relatively small. Yi Anguo is familiar with the future wooden furniture market and new mahogany furniture will be very popular, so what he has to do is to be the first to launch the popular mahogany furniture in the future market.

Although for the style of mahogany furniture, no matter how novel your design is, as long as you put it on the market and it is popular in the market, there will be a large number of manufacturers copying your style.

However, the manufacturer that launches the latest models first still has an advantage.

There are almost no patented designs for mahogany furniture. Anyone can copy any style.

This does not mean that you cannot apply for a patent. The problem is that this issue is very complicated and it is quite difficult to apply for a patent.

Moreover, when you applied for the patent, others had already copied it and produced many finished products.

It is difficult to prove the appearance of mahogany furniture. No one has done this kind of furniture since ancient times.

For example, the appearance of a cabinet is a cabinet, a bookcase, a wardrobe, a top cabinet, or a TV cabinet. No matter how you change the design, its appearance will not change much.

There is also a big bed, how do you design it? It is also a bed.

If someone copies your work, it can also be said to be a reference. You didn’t say you can’t learn from it, right?

So as long as it is a best-selling mahogany furniture style, every mahogany furniture factory will produce it. At most, there will be slight changes, such as different carvings, or some changes. 99% will copy you, and the remaining 1% will be temporary changes by yourself.

In addition, you can also slightly change the size. Anyway, there are ways to circumvent you. If you really apply for a patent, if you don't apply for a patent, then just copy it 100%, and there is nothing you can do.

Yi Anguo's requirements for the carpenters and cutters are that they must make high-quality mahogany furniture. They must not be fake, shoddy, or use white trim.

Moreover, a unique brand label must be engraved on the bottom of the panel with a machine to avoid future disputes and be able to quickly identify whether the product is produced by us.

The quality must be guaranteed, and of course, the price will not be cheap.

On the premise of ensuring quality, the price cannot be too cheap.

But Yi Anguo had no intention of seizing the low-end mahogany furniture market.

Even in the low-end mahogany furniture market, there are always some people who pay more attention to quality, not just cheap prices.

And if you gain something, you will inevitably lose something, and if you lose something, you will also gain something. You have won the favor of people who only look at price and not quality. Then you are destined to lose those consumers who pay attention to product quality.

Of course, many consumers want both good quality and cheap prices, but how can they have both?

So the consumer is doomed, he can only choose one thing.

For the same five-liter barrel of pure peanut oil, some he sells for more than 150 yuan a bottle, and some may not cost even 100 yuan. Some people choose a bottle of more than 150 yuan, and some choose a bottle of less than 100 yuan. .

It is impossible for a merchant to lower its price in order to cater to consumers who just want to buy a bottle of pure peanut oil for less than 100 yuan, so it is destined to lose other parts of the consumer market.

But after losing part of the consumer market with low-end purchasing power, he won another part of the consumer market with high-end purchasing power, and earned more.

Yi Anguo now only wants to win with quality, not low price.

After the samples of mahogany furniture were ready, Yi Anguo naturally wanted to enjoy them by himself first. He changed all the furniture in the place where he lived.

The big bed is a mahogany bed made from Siamese rosewood in Laos. The top cabinet is a refurbished product of old yellow rosewood furniture that was picked up and purchased. Dressing table made of small leaf rosewood.

The bookcases and bookcases in the study are all made of golden nanmu.

The round dining table in the restaurant, the TV cabinet in the living room, and the ten-piece sofa set are all made of authentic Laotian Siamese rosewood.

In addition to the place where he lives, Yi Anguo's company office also uses mahogany furniture made of Laotian Siamese rosewood.
