Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon

Chapter 259: Ready to empty

111 Wall Street, Seed Fund Office, Li Zhiwen walked in with a pair of dark circles under his eyes. There was no way. Yesterday he taught Chinese too late.

   The seed fund staff in the office came and went in a hurry, but everyone had a happy smile on their faces, and they were obviously in a good mood.

   Li Zhiwen walked into the office of Tan Huafei's team and heard the staff yelling inside.

   "It has risen, it has risen, and now the international crude oil price has reached 30.5 U.S. dollars a barrel."

   "You are the old calendar. The international crude oil price shown here has reached 30.7 US dollars a barrel."

   Li Zhiwen couldn't help but smiled when he heard the yells of these staff members, and continued to walk towards Tan Huafei's office.

   Don't underestimate the increase in this barrel of ten tenths of dollars. This ten-thousand dollar morning brought Li Zhiwen millions of dollars in profits. This is just the beginning.

   "Hua Fei, how is it?" Li Zhiwen walked into the office and asked.

   "Boss, the situation is very good. It has just been confirmed that Iraq attacked Iran's capital Tehran and other 15 cities and air bases in the early morning of the 22nd local time, but Iran was completely unprepared. The entire air raid was in flames."

"And all the investors and speculators on Wall Street in New York, after receiving this news, at the moment when the New York Mercantile Exchange opened, they all flooded into the exchange, and the international crude oil price has been rising all the way, and it has reached thirty dollars a barrel. "Tan Huafei said excitedly.

   "Hua Fei, your news is out of date. When I just came in, someone outside said that the international crude oil price had exceeded 30.7 US dollars a barrel." Li Zhiwen smiled and pointed out the door.

   "Yes, anyway, the situation is now very good, and there is also good news from the foreign exchange market. The current exchange rate of the US dollar to the British pound has reached 1.75:1." Tan Huafei said.

   "Hua Fei, the more at this time we have to be more careful, we are on the cliff now, one step forward or one step back may fall." Li Zhiwen frowned.

  Tan Huafei, who has always been cautious, has been like this. What happened to the building next door? Li Zhiwen expressed deep concern.

   "I understand, boss!" Tan Huafei said sternly, apparently listening to Li Zhiwen's words.

   "Huafei, where do you think the highest peak of this oil price increase can reach?" Li Zhiwen asked.

"I think it can be at least 35 U.S. dollars a barrel. After all, the bald eagle is too dependent on Middle East oil, and Iran and Iraq are important oil-producing countries in the Middle East. The impact of crude oil is even worse." Tan Huafei said.

In order to resist the rise in international crude oil prices from 1973 to 1974, the bald eagle controlled the price of domestically produced crude oil. To give the simplest example, a bald eagle consumer pays 48 US dollars more for imported crude oil than domestically produced crude oil. point.

   This seems to be beneficial to every consumer in the short term, and everyone is willing to use domestically produced crude oil.

However, this has seriously inhibited the enthusiasm of domestic bald eagle producers. Everyone saw, good guys, it turns out that selling imported crude oil can make so much more, and instead of developing bald eagle's own crude oil, they all import oil from abroad. .

   This makes the Bald Eagle, a fellow who relies on imported crude oil, relies more on imported crude oil.

  The most direct cause is that the two major international crude oil exporters have cut crude oil production, which has led to a sharp rise in crude oil prices.

   The Iranian Revolution has already increased international crude oil to twenty dollars a barrel, but at the very least it was possible to import it from Iraq and Saudi Arabia.

   But in the current Iran-Iraq war, Saudi Arabia is consciously reducing its oil exports and domestic oil is not available. The skyrocketing international crude oil price seems inevitable.

   But Tan Huafei only considered economic and zz factors, but did not consider human factors.

   The Bald Eagle is currently in a general election year, and Carter, as the then president, will never allow the oil to continue to rise. That is digging out his wallet.

   And as its competitor, Reagan will also use oil prices to attack Carter, which will encourage Carter to quickly suppress oil prices.

   Coupled with the fact that the Iran-Iraq War has been fought for several years, rather than simply ending in a few months, the impact of the war on oil prices will only be minimal in the end.

"Huafei, don’t consider that the price of oil will continue to rise. I think it’s over 35 dollars in a short period of time. After all, as soon as the bald eagle makes a move, no one will have to fall. Barrel, immediately sell our oil futures, we must be resolute, we now demand stability." Li Zhiwen said.

   "Understood, boss!" Although Tan Huafei did not understand Li Zhiwen's consideration, he still agreed.

   then asked: "Boss, where is the foreign exchange market?"

   "Don't worry about the foreign exchange market. It will not be too late to wait for the new president of the Bald Eagle to confirm it." Li Zhiwen said.

Li Zhiwen knew that the U.S. dollar was in a period of appreciation in the next few years. Until the Plaza Agreement was signed, the Bald Eagle forced Japan and other countries, which had a good life, to appreciate in value to offset their own inflation~www.readwn. com~ But after all, the leveraged funds used cannot make long-term investment, and it is okay to do a short-term investment.

   "Understood, boss!" Tan Huafei said.

After   , Li Zhiwen went to the office of the building team. The atmosphere here was obviously a lot more impatient than the atmosphere of Tan Huafei's team. The voice in the office was louder than that of the Tan Huafei team next to him.

   Therefore, Li Zhiwen gave Lou Lie a more thorough order than Tan Huafei, ordering Lou Lie to sell all the oil futures in his hands when the international oil price reached 33 US dollars a barrel.

  ......

   At 2 a.m. local time on September 23, Iraq, Iraq dispatched ground troops to attack Iran. Half of the sky burned by the war was like daylight.

   While standing on the deck of a passenger ship, Liang Jiucheng and Hu Wenzhao looked at the war in the distance.

   Hu Wenzhao said: "The war has begun. It's terrible. Fortunately, we ran fast, otherwise we would really be left there."

Liang Jiucheng glanced at Hu Wenzhao next to him and said, "Thank our boss. If it weren’t for the boss to help us contact the mainland ambassador to Iran, how can we leave, look at the people in the boat, and look at the people on the shore. I know how important it is to have a great motherland and how important it is to have a good boss."

   "Yes, thank the boss, thank the motherland, Liangtou, let's go into the cabin." Hu Wenzhao said.

   Obviously Hu Wenzhao didn't feel Liang Jiucheng's mood at this time. After all, the two had different educational backgrounds and received different education.
