The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 796 European Consortium (8)

   “European consortium is selling the euro, but the price is still above 1.2.”

One day after Canada raised interest rates, the European Union announced last month’s economic data. The results were unexpectedly poor. The unemployment rate was as high as 10.1%, setting a new high in Europe in ten years; the European economic growth rate in the first quarter was revised to 0.2% , indicating that the economic recovery in the euro zone is slowing.

   What worries the market even more is that the European Managers' Purchasing Index fell sharply from 57.6 in the previous month to 55.8 in May, and confidence in manufacturing investment is falling.

  After the release of this data, there was a frenzy of selling the euro in the market immediately, because this figure far exceeded market expectations. So far, the euro has approached the price level of 1.21.

   "European banks have called over and over again, and it seems that they are going to give in!"

  Jiangshan said excitedly, "So far, we can earn more than 200 million euros, and if we add in the benefits from options, we can earn at least 500 million euros."

   Although this was only a short-term test of the waters, Zhongshi went all out, shorting the futures and options markets.

   "Notify them that the position can be closed!"

  Zhong Shi laughed twice, and waved his hands casually, "I believe they should be satisfied with this."

"okay!"

  Jiang Shan received the order and excitedly made a phone call, but his hands stopped the next moment, and he looked at Zhong Shi with a puzzled face, "Zhong Sheng, you said let them close the position, what about us?"

  He didn't hear Zhong Shi talking about Tianyu Fund, and suddenly realized that Zhong Shi seemed to have something in his words. When this idea came to him, he realized that maybe Zhong Shi had something to say.

"us?"

  There was a look of approval in Zhong Shi's eyes, "If my judgment is correct, Europe has already taken action. I don't know when the next time I get such an opportunity."

   "You... you want to..."

  Jiang Shan obviously heard something, his face changed, and he stammered and asked, "Zhong Sheng, don't we want to close the position and continue?"

   After a pause, he added: "Leave them alone and continue?"

  Whether it was the idea of ​​continuing with Zhongshi, or the decision of Zhongshi to abandon his companions, Jiang Shan was extremely surprised. In his impression, Zhong Shi has always been a character who takes care of the overall situation and leads everyone forward. Now all this is going to be completely overturned, which is simply unbelievable.

   "That's right, of course we should leave them alone!"

   Regarding Jiang Shan’s doubts, Zhong Shi didn’t feel ashamed or guilty at all. After glancing at Jiang Shan who was still in a daze, he explained lightly, “Jiang Shan, you are still too immature.”

"For this alliance, although everyone is united by my side on the surface, my opinion prevails. But in fact, you have also seen that everyone is making their own calculations, and even Paulson has different opinions. This is What does it mean? It can only mean that this alliance is based on interests, and once a dispute arises in front of interests, it will fall apart."

"I dare say that there are people who are secretly closing positions in the market without notifying me. Since this is the case, why should the biggest profits be dedicated to them? We are just a mutual cooperative relationship, not a blood alliance. Even if it is The blood-stained alliance will also have a day of betrayal."

   "Of course, we don't need to let them know about our operations. Everyone just needs to maintain a superficial peace."

"Okay, I know!"

  Jiang Shan quickly figured out the reason. He glanced at Zhong Shi with admiration, and then notified the American side.

   "So, Zhong Sheng, what are we going to do?"

After finishing all this, Jiang Shan sat down beside Zhong Shi with a playful smile on his face, "Zhong Sheng, I admire you so much now. I didn't expect that after one of your back moves, there is another back move hidden behind you." .Can you tell me, what exactly do you want to do?"

   "Do you remember that we visited an insider in Germany a few months ago?"

  Zhong Shi lit a cigarette and said slowly, "After talking with him, I came up with an idea, but I never told anyone else about it."

"what idea?"

Jiang Shan also took out a cigarette from the cigarette box in the same way, but after he took a sharp puff, he was choked by the hot taste and coughed again and again. It took a long time to calm down and asked curiously, "I remember that guy, the hand There are black materials of German congressmen in it, and this guy is really daring to do such a thing."

   "Since he can use the political leaders of Germany, why can't we use the political leaders of other countries?"

  Zhong Shi smiled and flicked the cigarette ash, as if talking about a trivial matter, "Why can't we take advantage of it?"

"what?"

Jiang Shan was terrified by Zhong Shi's words, and the cigarette in his hand fell onto his lap with a thud, making him jump around for a while. After he was in a hurry for a while, he said in a trembling voice, "Zhong Sheng, what are you doing now? It's getting bigger and bigger."

So far, the most egregious thing Zhongshi has done is privately instigating general strikes across Greece, but it must be explained that these strikes will happen even without Zhongshi's participation. But played a catalytic role. Other than that, he never crossed the line.

   And once it gets really involved in politics, the nature of the whole thing becomes different. Jiangshan is very clear that the complexity and darkness of politicians' methods is unimaginable for ordinary people. So when he heard that Zhong Shi planned to get involved in politics, he realized that something was wrong.

   "Why, are you afraid?"

  Zhong Shi gave the other party a sideways look, and said softly in a chilling tone, "If you're scared, there's still time to back out now!"

Hearing Zhong Shi's unkind tone, Jiang Shan didn't even hesitate for a moment, and immediately patted his chest and said: "Zhong Sheng, don't worry, as long as you point to it, I will guarantee that Jiang Shan will hit you. It's too dangerous, you still have to think twice about this!"

   "Of course not the authorities, we can't buy this!"

Seeing Jiang Shan being so loyal, Zhong Shi was naturally very satisfied. He patted the other party's shoulder and said with a smile, "No matter how rich we are, it is impossible for the authorities of a country to be used by me. But have you ever thought about it?" , the ruling party cannot be used, but what about the opposition parties? And those who are depressed in the government?"

   "So it is!"

Jiang Shan now fully understood, took a long breath, and said with lingering fear, "If it is the opposition party, it will be much easier to handle. At least the outside world will think that because of their dissatisfaction with the current government, they will sometimes speak freely." .”

   "Yes, that's what I think about it!"

Zhong Shi pressed the cigarette **** into the ashtray, stood up abruptly, and said firmly, "Whether it is the possibility of France's downgrade, Canada's interest rate hike, or Australia's suspension of interest rate hikes, it is beyond our control. This is no longer We can get a confrontation, and even if we can offer a very high price, it is impossible for the three major rating agencies to talk nonsense, because after being dealt with by the US government, they will inevitably restrain themselves. So I have to Change your thinking and change the object of possible manipulation from the outside to the inside of Europe."

   As he spoke, he took off the suit from the hanger, and walked outside without looking back.

  Seeing Zhong Shi's actions, Jiang Shan hurriedly followed, and at the same time he did not forget to ask: "Zhong Sheng, where are we going?"

   "Go talk to our connector!"

  Zhong Shi explained patiently, "Since we are starting from within Europe, we naturally have to contact the other party first to see if there is any possibility of cooperation with the other party, otherwise everything will be useless."

   "Oh, by the way, what's going on with the long options we're shorting on the euro?"

   Walking to the door, Zhong Shi suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but turned to Jiang Shan and asked, "I remember that our position is at least 50 billion US dollars, how is it now?"

   "Betting on long dollar options and short euro options, plus some leverage, has gained more than 30% so far."

Jiang Shan took out the mobile phone in his arms, opened a page, checked it carefully, and then replied with a smile, "So far, we have a revenue of more than 15 billion US dollars, which is enough to guarantee our rate of return this year." An increase of more than 5%. I haven’t counted the gains on gold futures yet!”

  He is very proud, because the entire market is bleak, and Tianyu Fund, which has a capital scale of more than 100 billion U.S. dollars, can actually achieve a return of more than 5%, which is enough to shock the entire market.

   “Get traders ready to unwind all of these options into long euro and short dollar option positions after my signal.”

  For such a huge number, Zhong Shi hummed noncommittally, and then said something that made Jiang Shan's face change, "Yes, I think the euro has almost bottomed out, and now we have to change our strategy."

"what…"

The corners of Jiang Shan’s mouth twitched rapidly, his eyes widened, and he stared at Zhong Shi in a daze until he was completely sure of Zhong Shi’s words, then he asked in a low voice, “Zhong Sheng, do we really want to turn around? ?”

"certainly!"

Zhong Shi glared at the other party with displeasure, and continued to walk out, "I have already said that from the speed with which France, Spain and other countries deal with the rumors, it can be seen that the countries in the euro zone are close to unity. Under the circumstances, even if there is any news, it will be clarified within a day or two at most. Therefore, there are not many opportunities left for us to continue shorting the euro. If we don’t turn around at this time, why should we continue to wait?”

   "Then do you want to notify..."

  Jiang Shan blurted out, but after meeting Zhong Shi's stern gaze, his voice stopped abruptly like a duck being strangled by the neck.

   Speechless all the way, the two soon arrived at the airport. After boarding the plane through the VIP channel, Jiang Shan asked cautiously: "Zhong Sheng, where are we going?"

   "Hungary!"

  Zhong Shi just glanced at the other party and then closed his eyes, obviously not intending to continue talking.

   "What if the persuasion fails?"

  After quickly reviewing the political landscape of Hungary in his mind, Jiang Shan sadly discovered that he knew almost nothing about this country. But he is not worried about this, but there is still a question lingering in his mind, "If we can't achieve the goal in this trip, what should we do, or continue to reverse?"

   "If we can't convince the other party, then we can only continue to make a fuss about Spain!"

Although Zhong Shi closed his eyes, he could still hear Jiang Shan's words, "Besides, I don't believe that there is no one in this world who cannot be bribed. The market may be immune to rumors from unknown sources, but what if it comes from inside? "

   Speaking of this, he couldn't help sneering twice.

   "Besides, you may not have noticed, but I did!"

He continued, “Recently, dissatisfaction in German newspapers, including Merkel’s government, is increasing, because the price paid by Germany is the largest in the entire euro zone. It is impossible to say that there is no dissatisfaction, and this public opinion can also be We use it, don't we?"

  "When the crisis comes, clowns from all walks of life will come out!"

  His voice became deeper and deeper, and in the end he couldn't tell whether he was speaking to Jiang Shan or talking to himself.
