Top of the big era

On April 3, in the 33rd round of the Premier League, Manchester United played Chelsea at home.

This is a game that will decide the Premier League title this season. Currently, Manchester United leads the standings by 7 points. If they win this game, they will basically lock in the Premier League championship this season. If you lose, there will probably be suspense.

Compared with Manchester United, Chelsea has a big advantage, that is, Chelsea has already been eliminated from the Champions League and can concentrate on its domestic competition.

Manchester United just had a head-to-head battle with Bayern Munich in midweek, and will face Bayern Munich again at home four days later. From a physical point of view, Chelsea is definitely better.

Major football commentators have also analyzed it before the game. Chelsea will definitely attack and strive to win in this game at Old Trafford. It is difficult for Manchester United to maintain a tie.

Chelsea can fight with ease, but Manchester United cannot. Manchester United still needs to preserve its strength to prepare for the Champions League.

After the game started, the trend was exactly as everyone expected before the game.

Ancelotti's team launched wave after wave of fierce attacks, and the atmosphere in the Old Trafford Stadium was very enthusiastic. On Zhou Buqi's left is the club's CEO David Gill, and on his right is Senior Sister Zhen Yu who just arrived from the United States.

Zhen Yu had already gone to New York, but she was suddenly called back by a phone call from Zhou Buqi.

While watching the game, we talked about business.

The two communicated directly in Chinese, and they were not afraid of the foreigners around them hearing.

Zhou Buqi felt pity that Van Persie, who was returning from injury, missed his shot. Then he turned around and said: "Have you paid attention to the debt crisis in Greece?"

Zhen Yu said softly: "I didn't pay much attention to it before. After you told me, I read some materials on the plane."

"Any ideas?"

"What are you doing? Are you going to give me a test?"

Zhen Yu gave him a half-smiling look.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Absolutely. I flew over from Catalonia in the morning, and there was a local banker crying and asking me to invest."

"What to vote for?"

"European debt."

“Short European debt?”

Zhen Yu's eyes widened and she was very surprised.

In today's financial markets, whether it is Wall Street or Europe, it has become everyone's consensus to short European debt. Greece's debt crisis is likely to spread to other countries in the EU.

A lot of big capital has already rushed into Greece and Portugal.

As a result, some other Eurozone countries with poor economic indicators have publicly stated that their economies are performing well, the growth of various indices is very strong, and there are no debt risks.

Zhou Buqi looked at her funny, "Do you want to try it?"

Zhen Yu said seriously: "I think it's best not to do it. We still need to rely on the EU to expand our business in Europe. At this time, we will jump out and short European debt to create trouble for them. In turn, they will also create trouble for us." . It has been many years since Soros shorted the European currency market, and the whole of Europe does not welcome him."

"You're right." Zhou Buqi nodded, "So let's just play small, test the water, and exercise."

Zhen Yu looked suspicious, "Exercise? Exercise for what?"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "I'm going to train you. Don't you want to participate in such a big financial event?"

"Me?" Zhen Yu trembled, "Forget it, I don't dare."

This is a bit exaggerated.

The European debt crisis is a world-class financial event. The world's top financiers and investors are all focused on it, and they are all entering the scene to bleed blood and eat flesh.

Who dares to end this?

If you rush in, you might be shattered to pieces!

Although Senior Sister Zhen Yu graduated from the Department of Finance, she is more of a conceptual person. She has been doing management work in the past few years and has basically no trading experience in capital processing.

Let her fish in troubled waters in the European debt crisis, or she will drown. With this kind of international capital, an entire army may be wiped out if you are not careful.

"Careful! Damn!"

Zhou Buqi was chatting with Senior Sister Zhen Yu about business when the situation on the field suddenly changed. Chelsea midfielder Essien suddenly took a long shot from outside the penalty area and hit a world wave, taking the lead in the score.

I have to say that this Chelsea team is very strong.

In the previous life, Manchester United lost Ronaldo, and because the Glazer family was stingy and their recruitment efforts were weak, Manchester United's strength was greatly reduced. This season's Premier League championship belongs to Chelsea.

But things are different now. Boss Zhou is spending a lot of money. Manchester United successively introduced strong players last summer and is the second-largest team after Real Madrid in terms of investment in the transfer market.

With Ferguson's leadership, Manchester United's strength this season seems to be further than last season. If it weren't for the recent wave of injuries, it shouldn't be too difficult to win Chelsea.

Next, it depends on how Ferguson uses his troops. Berbatov, Bell, Scholes, and Evra are all on standby on the bench.

The lagging behind in the score did not cause much reaction in the VIP area here. Zhou Buqi continued to discuss the European debt crisis with Senior Sister Zhen Yu, "Sister, all experience is summed up in practical applications. The European debt crisis It would be a pity to miss such a big event. We are not seeking to make money, we just want to participate, accumulate experience and learn."

Zhen Yu was a little worried, "How can anyone learn like this?"

"With me here, what are you afraid of?" Zhou Buqi held his head high and was full of confidence, "It means I don't want to offend the EU. Otherwise, if I really transfer all the funds and raise 10 billion US dollars to enter the market, it will take two or three years. , it won’t be a problem to double or triple it.”

Zhen Yu said angrily: "How can it be so easy?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Actually, it's not difficult at all. The main reason is that we are now so famous that all parties are watching us. In the future, the development of European business will have to rely on the EU to boost it. It really shouldn't be too ugly, and we can't do it because of it. A small loss is a big loss. But it would be a pity to waste such a good capital trading opportunity. Why don't you just enter the market and have a little fuss and just treat it as a game."

Zhen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How can there be such a game?"

Zhou Buqi asked: "How much money do we still have on our account?"

"I just acquired the Warriors and set aside a sum of money. After deducting the debt principal and interest to be paid this year, as well as the reserved working capital..."

"Just tell me how much money you can take out at most!"

"$500 million."

"so little?"

"Up to $600 million."

"Okay, 600 million, just 600 million." Zhou Buqi nodded, "The European debt market is a big market with trillions of euros. It's only 600 million US dollars. When you enter the market, it's like raindrops. If you lose, you will gain. It won’t attract too much attention.”

The Spanish financier named Javier wanted to attract investment and asked Boss Zhou to hand over the money to him to short Spanish government bonds. After making money, the majority goes to the investor, and he only charges commissions.

But pull it down!

Zhou Buqi has no interest in dealing with such little people. European debt is such a sensitive business, even if you enter the market, you can only make a small amount of money.

In the final analysis, he is an entrepreneur. He cannot be like those capitalists in investment banks and hedge funds who do not care about their personal reputation and rush in like a hungry wolf whenever they find an opportunity.

Since it is a small matter, it is better to leave such a precious trading opportunity to Senior Sister Zhen Yu. Making money is secondary, it helps her accumulate experience in relevant financial operations.

in case for need.

This is Zhou Buqi's retreat.

What if Ziweixing is eliminated in China, Ziweixing International fails to develop in overseas markets, Pluto Capital also loses money, Chaowan Commune collapses, Jieyu Media fails to go public, and Yuanwei milk tea has food safety hazards...

If he is so unlucky and his core industries have not developed, it doesn't matter.

And Senior Sister Zhen Yu.

Outsiders can't believe it, so they have to strive to train Senior Sister Zhen Yu.

If other businesses fail, you can still make waves in the international financial market, and you can still support this big family.

There are many opportunities for speculation in financial markets.

For example, the skyrocketing oil prices caused by war; for example, the increase in commodity costs caused by Brexit and trade frictions; for example, the global economic collapse caused by the plague, and the rapid recovery of the economy after the global floods, as well as the global inflation and stagflation after the floods. brought about economic recession.

Zhou Buqi has a better understanding of the general trend of the world, but it won't work if he is allowed to make specific decisions. He might as well train Senior Sister Zhen Yu.

Zhen Yu found it hard to understand for a while and worried about gains and losses, "Boss Zhou, what are you talking about?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Don't you have 600 million US dollars in your family account? Let's just leave it alone. Let's try the European debt market. You will be the operator."

"I can not."

"How will you know if you don't try?"

"It's too risky and you'll lose money."

"It's just a loss, so what can I do?" Zhou Buqi didn't care at all, "Our family is not short of money, and 600 million US dollars will be used as tuition. You are studying finance, and I don't believe you are interested in such a big company. The capital markets are not interested."

Definitely.

How could you not be interested?

Zhen Yu was very conflicted in her heart. She was really surging, but she was really worried. "Why on earth is this? You have already said that our family is not short of money, why do we take such a big risk to enter the market?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Three reasons."

"Um."

"First, this is your major. Come in and give it a try and gain some experience."

"I don't think it's necessary."

Zhen Yu shook her head gently.

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "Second, at critical moments, we can cooperate with the EU, not go short but go long, and proactively buy bonds in the market to raise bond prices and restore market confidence."

After the Bretton Woods system collapsed, the world's financial order changed, and the logic of finance became credit endorsement. In other words, if the market has confidence, bonds are valuable assets; if the market has no confidence, bonds are worthless junk.

At the critical moment, Zhen Yu stepped forward to purchase bonds on behalf of Zhou Buqi, expressing her support for the stability of the EU economy and the euro, and using the popularity of Boss Zhou to boost market confidence.

When the time comes, the EU will naturally reciprocate the favor.

Having more friends will make traveling easier, and the Zhou family's business in the EU will be easier to do in the future.

Zhen Yu fell silent. This reason is indeed very important.

Zhou Buqi continued: "The third point is the most important. Senior sister, I understand you. I know you want to enter the market, you are curious and impulsive. If you want, just do it. Don't consider other factors."

Zhen Yu rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are really good at coaxing people."

Zhou Buqi leaned over and whispered, "If I don't know how to coax people, how can I deceive you?"

Zhen Yu's face turned slightly red and she whispered, "You didn't lie to me. I did it voluntarily. I like the feeling of being by your side."
