The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 792 European Consortium (4)

Although Lagarde was very angry, under the joint efforts of the United Kingdom and Germany, she had to hold her nose and agree to the United Kingdom's application to rejoin the European rescue mechanism. funds.

  With the end of the EU Finance Ministers' Conference, the relevant news seemed to have grown wings, and soon spread all over the world. Britain's re-joining of the EU rescue mechanism and the EU's consensus on Germany's ban on naked short-selling, these two news are like blockbusters, causing waves to skyrocket in the current turbulent international financial market.

   "Zhong Sheng, they have been looking for you for a long time."

  In Zhong Shi's office, Jiang Shan yawned, and smiled wryly at Zhong Shi who was still rubbing his sleepy eyes, "The phone has been ringing non-stop since the morning until the afternoon."

"understood!"

  Zhong Shi yawned a lot, stood up from the sofa bed, rubbed his fluffy hair, drew back his finger and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff, "It's time to wash your hair."

  Regarding Zhong Shi's answer, Jiang Shan seemed rather taken aback, wanted to laugh but couldn't. He can imagine that the United States has become an ant on the hot pot, while Zhongshi here is calm and calm, and the two form a sharp contrast.

  Last night, the two waited until after five o'clock in the morning, and waited until the EU issued an official statement before they fell asleep in peace. Before going to bed, Zhong Shi deliberately unplugged the phone line and turned off his mobile phone, as if he had already predicted what would happen today.

   Zhong Shi didn’t seem to notice Jiang Shan’s words. He stood up, picked up his suit, and walked out the door. As soon as he reached the door, he realized that Jiang Shan hadn’t followed.

   "Oh...I'm coming."

  Jiang Shan was taken aback for a moment, but quickly came to his senses, walked over quickly, followed behind Zhong Shi, and asked as he walked, "Zhong Sheng, where are we going?"

   "The horse kills the chicken."

Zhong Shi squinted his eyes and stretched his neck for a while, and then said slowly, "Steam first, then do a massage to relax your muscles and bones. These two days have been so hard that even I Some can't bear it."

   "But the United States..."

  Jiang Shan was stunned. He didn't think that Zhong Shi didn't hear what he said, but the other party didn't have any intention of dealing with it, which made him very puzzled, and said carefully, "They are still waiting."

   "Then let them continue to wait!"

  Zhong Shi said lightly, without stopping at every step, "Since they don't listen to me, it's good for them to suffer a little bit."

  Although he did not refute it in person, Zhong Shi still has opinions on Paulson and others. In Zhong Shi's view, these people are really too greedy. Although so far, there are tens of billions of euros in short positions, even if the euro rises by 5%, these guys will only lose about 600 million to 700 million U.S. dollars, which is not a particularly large amount in Zhongshi's view.

  But this bad breath must come out, Zhong Shi thought secretly in his heart.

  Two hours later, Zhong Shi, who had completely relaxed, reappeared in front of everyone full of energy, but it was a pity that except for the traders at night, all the employees who worked during the day had already left work.

   After waving his hands to let the night traders leave, Zhong Shi left Jiang Shan alone.

   "Gentlemen, what's your question?"

  After receiving a call from the United States, Zhong Shi said slowly, "I heard that the European Union has accommodated the United Kingdom and reached a consensus on prohibiting naked short selling?"

   "Mr. Zhong, I finally got in touch with you!"

As soon as the call was answered, Paulson took the lead in pouring out bitterness, regardless of whether other people were online, "We have been looking for you for a whole day, and now the whole world has gone crazy! You...you didn't hear the news, did you?" ?”

   Paulson didn't realize that Zhongshi was hanging them, and directly expressed his anxiety and anxiety. It has to be said that on this point Paulson and Zhongshi are closely following each other.

   "Yes, the EU issued such an announcement just last night."

   Immediately after, Delio also spoke, "The euro in the Asian trading session has risen by 2%, and now the London market has also opened. According to the current feedback, the upward momentum of the euro is irreversible."

The mature and prudent Delio spoke calmly, without the slightest anxiety or panic, but deep down in his heart he was still dissatisfied with not being able to contact Zhong Shi. After saying the above, he added: "Mr. Zhong, we should always keep connect."

   "What do we do next?"

   Jim Chanos, who has always been reticent, also spoke, "According to the current momentum, the possibility of a long-term euro reversal exists."

"How to do?"

  Zhong Shi raised his voice and asked pretending to be puzzled, "How do I know what you think? But if you can't bear the loss now, then just close your position in the market. Isn't this a very simple truth?"

"Can…"

The impatient Paulson opened his mouth to say something, but soon he realized that the others were unanimously silent. When Jiang Zhongshi's words were quickly thought through in his mind, he realized the crux of the problem, and then So he put on a flattering tone, "Hey, Mr. Zhong, things are not as you imagined."

   "What do I imagine?"

  Zhong Shi still refused to let go, and asked, "What do I imagine, and what do you think? John, why can't I understand what you are talking about?"

  This sentence is a bit heavy, Paulson paused, sighed leisurely, and did not explain anything further.

  Others heard that Paulson, who walked closest to Zhong Shi, was reprimanded so unceremoniously, so naturally they were unwilling to say anything more, and no one spoke on the phone for a while.

   "We were wrong about this!"

After a long while, Delio said in a low voice, "Yesterday we didn't intend to exclude you, but we were blinded by the temporary benefits at that time. Thinking about it now, what you are worried about is foresight. We were too short-sighted.”

   "Yeah, we're greedy!"

  Ackerman quickly continued, "This is a taboo in trading. It's a pity that I didn't control the negative emotions in my human nature."

   "You are still the brain of our team!"

  Jim Chanos is still concise and concise as always, but the meaning is expressed very clearly. In the future, at least he will personally follow the example of Zhongshi.

   "Okay, Mr. Zhong, I believe you also understand what's going on, so don't continue to make decisions!"

Bill Gross finally spoke, "It's normal to have different opinions, but this loss is nothing compared to everyone here. The most important thing now is not to let the trend of the euro reverse. , otherwise everything we have done before will be in vain, won’t it?”

  "Now is not the time to vent your anger. If the other party only exerts a little force and our own people disperse, then how can we continue to attack and destroy the euro in the future?"

As the most important person besides Zhongshi and Delio, Bill Gross has been wearing only a pair of ears in the conference call, and never expresses his opinions easily, but when he speaks, he gets to the most critical point of the problem . That is to say, Europe has become an iron plate, at least on the surface, and the most important thing now is that their team can't mess around.

  But when Gross said, "This loss is nothing", Ackerman and Griffin, who were the weakest in financial resources, were still shocked.

"You're right!" After beating the crowd, Zhong Shi changed the subject and started to bring the topic to the point, "Bill, you're right. It's really not the time to engage in internal strife. I realized yesterday that Europe's The fact that the consortium would rather lose money than take over the offer, they think that the time for their internal agreement to be reached is approaching. Sure enough, in the early hours of yesterday, their news came. Not only the internal agreement was reached, London, which originally did not plan to enter the European rescue mechanism Also added. On the back of these two pieces of news, I believe the euro can rise strongly again, at least in the short term.”

   "And if I'm not wrong, you should have been looking for opponents in the market since the Asian trading hours, but apart from being unsatisfied with the single amount, you shouldn't be very satisfied with the price, right?"

   "You know this too?"

   Paulson was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped.

  Although none of the other people spoke, the obviously thickened gasps had clearly betrayed their hearts at this time.

  “When the European consortium stopped selling the euro, I realized the problem.”

Regarding their reaction, Zhong Shi shook his head speechlessly, but explained patiently, "If my guess is not wrong, the European consortium will still maintain a reluctance to sell at the time of today's transaction, at least for a week. They will not easily let go of the bargaining chips they have in order to maximize their interests."

"One week?"

Paulson took a breath, and quickly calculated, "If the market does not experience another turmoil within this week, it is possible for the euro to rise by 10%. Could it be that we can only watch the losses further increase?" Expand it?"

  If it rises by 10%, it means that their positions on hand will lose 10% or more, and this share is obviously approaching their psychological bottom line.

   You must know that they originally planned to do intraday trading, and a daily rise and fall of one to two percentage points is already serious. However, because the share of the sell-off was too large, the European consortium cleverly set up a trap to completely freeze part of the liquidity.

Of course, according to the current market trading volume, these guys are enough to be able to liquidate all positions from the market within a week, but in this way, the rise of the euro does not know how much it will rise. At least it is certain that it will definitely The price is higher than they expected.

   "Is there no other way?"

  Griffin couldn't help but asked, "If it rises by 10%, all my profits from the first half of the year will be filled in. I really have no way to explain it to investors."

  Due to major mistakes in quantitative transactions in the first half of the year, the entire Castle Fund has only made hundreds of millions of dollars in profit so far, and once a loss of more than 100 million euros occurs, his busy work has been in vain.

   "Of course there is a way!"

  Zhong Shi’s answer was like a lighthouse in the middle of the night, bringing great hope to everyone in an instant, but the next moment his words poured cold water on everyone from beginning to end, “But it’s very difficult!”

   "Tell me, what should we do?"

Although Zhong Shi said that it was very difficult, Paulson didn't even frown. Now besides Zhong Shi, he has sold the most shares. It is impossible to say that he is not in a hurry, so he jumped He came out, patted his chest and asked, with the intention of taking this matter on his shoulders.

   "As I said before, if there is no major change in the market, the euro will rise."

Regarding Paulson's statement, Zhong Shi just smiled lightly, and did not explain anything immediately, but continued to induce, "So we have to artificially create an accident to interfere with the current trend of the euro. This goal should not be too big. Because it can easily be seen as a sign of manipulation, but it can't be too small, so it may not be effective."

"what do you mean…"

   Everyone is confused.
