A Hong Kong drama that started with zombies

Chapter 245 Open the Champagne

On the morning of January 1991, 1, the President of the Eagle State signed a national security directive document, ordering the Eagle Army to go to war against Iraq.

The world is watching this war.

As one of the world's financial centers, Xiangjiang also has many people paying attention to this war, because the global economy is a whole, and the Eagle Kingdom's official declaration of war will not only affect the oil production in the Middle East where Iraq is located, even if only oil production is affected. The impact, the other industries that are affected are too numerous to mention.

Petroleum-related chemical industry bears the brunt.

Therefore, it is only natural that people in Hong Kong who are engaged in related industries, especially the financial industry, pay attention to this war, but if you ask which group in Hong Kong is most concerned about this war, the real answer is definitely not people related to the financial industry, nor chemical industry. industry-related manufacturers.

but community groups.

Many people paid attention to the matter of Xiao Zhang playing futures, because Zhao Rui and Li Dongkai guaranteed that this matter could not be kept secret.

The Zhao family is as complicated as the Li family, and the interior is not monolithic.

Judging from the handicap that no one dared to compete with Xiao Zhang, almost everyone believed that Xiao Zhang was doomed to lose this time, and the Li family and the Zhao family together would have to pay more than a billion or even more than 20 billion.

Even for the second of the top ten real estate developers in Hong Kong, this number is definitely not a small number.

The real key point is that this investment is not worth it in the eyes of many people. It is just a boxer, so what if he can fight again?

It's okay to spend more than ten or two billion yuan to buy Xiao Zhang, and a master with Dan Jin who is close to Gang Jin is also worth the price. After all, Xiao Zhang is still very young and only 19 years old, and the future is even more promising.

However, the two parties did not have any agreement or agreement from beginning to end, and it seemed to others that it was pure white compensation.

In the temporary headquarters of the umbrella company, Xiao Zhang led a group of people watching live TV news.

"I know, I know it."

Li Dongkai, who went out to answer the phone, came back with a very ugly expression after saying this, and Zhao Rui had a similar expression to him, but Zhao Rui was in a better mood in comparison, because Zhao Rui and Zhao's family Relationships have public 'splits'.

Xiao Zhang noticed this, and also noticed that his subordinates were not in a good mood, so he suddenly laughed.

"Do you all think I'm going to lose?"

No one responded in the quiet room, and no one dared to speak the truth.

Xiao Zhang continued to ask: "Do you still think that no matter how powerful I am as a master, I can't be as powerful as a gun, so Zhao Rui and Li Dongkai are really idiots, spending so much money to buy In my future, I may not necessarily listen to them?"

Zhao Rui hesitated to speak, she wanted to express her attitude, but she thought that Xiao Zhang must have a purpose in saying such words, so she didn't say anything.

Li Dongkai was named by Xiao Zhang, so naturally he could no longer remain silent.

"Mr. Xiao's words are really outrageous. I promised Mr. Xiao to guarantee Mr. Xiao's matter, and I also believe that Mr. Xiao is not the kind of person who easily declares himself bankrupt. Given Mr. Xiao's age Judging from the current achievements, more than one billion or two billion is nothing."

"Hehe... well said."

After Xiao Zhang nodded to Li Dongkai, he looked at other people and said: "Actually, your ideas are not wrong, and those people outside are not wrong either. No matter how good your martial arts are, you can't do whatever you want, so I'm not worth the price. After all , times have changed.”

Shouldn't the last sentence be ours?
Everyone in the room didn't know why, and couldn't figure out why Xiao Zhang said such things.

Xiao Zhang looked at Zhao Rui again, and asked with a smile on his face: "Did you always think that I don't know how to do business at all, and I'm just a lucky martial artist?"

"Ah? This..." Zhao Rui's expression was slightly awkward, and it was hard for her to deny it.

"It's okay, you can think like this, but I hope that when I make a decision in the future, you can all support me as always."

Xiao Zhang looked around.

In addition to the two 'outsiders' Zhao Rui and Li Dongkai, an 'outsider' named Chen Haonan was invited to watch the news.

The others are Xiao Zhang's confidantes such as A Hua, Wu Fei, Jiang Chengzhou, as well as A Xing, A Mei, Huang Fei and others.

When these people were called over, when they met, they felt that something big was going to happen, but they never thought that Xiao Zhang just took them to watch TV.

It wasn't until this time, after Xiao Zhang said these words, that they were a little stunned.

After Xiao Zhang looked around, he cast his gaze on the TV screen, which was showing war-related news pictures.

"I agree with the saying that the times have changed. I am more convinced and more convinced that this sentence is true than all of you and those outside who are laughing at me as an idiot. It is precisely because of this that I choose Play around with international oil futures."

"I know you don't understand why I say that, but that's okay, they'll tell you why."

Xiao Zhang noticed the news content on the TV, and when the military operation of the Eagle Kingdom had already started to be broadcast, he stepped back with his arms folded and stood beside Gong Er.

Apart from him, only Ah Xing could see Gong Er in the audience, not even Chen Haonan.

Because of Xiao Zhang's words, other people's eyes were focused on the TV screen.

"At two o'clock in the morning on the 17th local time, the air force of the multinational force headed by the Eagle State launched an air raid on Iraq and launched the "Desert Storm" operation... The entire air raid included the first three of the four combat phases of the "Desert Storm" plan, and the three phases were as planned Start at the same time..."

“由EF-111、EA-6B和EC-130H等电子战飞机先开辟通路，担负攻击任务的F-117、F-117A、F-111DAEAF、A-6、A-10、AV-8B、F-15E、B-52等型飞机攻击各指定目标，F-14、F-15C、F-16和F/A-18等飞机则担负掩护任务。”

"As of now, the daily momentum has reached 2500 sorties..."

There are a large number of various fighter jets taking off and landing in the screen, and even combat screens of reconnaissance and dropping missiles and bombs.

One building after another was directly destroyed, and neither the Kuwait theater nor the Iraqi mainland could stop the air strikes.

"It is reported that Eagle Nation has launched a new type of warfare they call electronic warfare, and Iran's communication command system has almost completely collapsed."

"The new fighter jets, Tomahawk cruise missiles, and various precision-guided missiles used by Eagle Nation can strike mission targets very precisely..."

"The Iranian side used Scud missiles to attack targets in Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain, but all of them failed. Most of them deviated from the orbit or were shot down by Eagle's Patriot air defense missiles..."

The pictures of the TV news kept flashing, and the voice of the host was clean and neat.

The people in the room were still silent, but their eyes became more and more shocked.

Only less than a day has passed, and they can already see that Iraq is bound to lose. This war is completely different from everyone's perception of war.

Xiao Zhang spoke again.

"Iraq has the fourth strongest army in the world. Everyone believes that this war will be long-lasting, which will lead to a continuous rise in international crude oil prices. But... times have changed."

Xiao Zhang's voice was a little lonely.

When he saw these advanced weapons, he also began to doubt how many seconds his strength could last before turning into fly ash.

But he quickly dispelled this idea, not because he would become stronger and stronger, but because he was already prepared in his heart: join if you can't beat it, what's wrong with high-tech weapons?If I have money, I will have everything.

"The outcome of this war has been decided, and it only took one day, so the situation in the Middle East will stabilize soon. Iraq's Scud missiles failed to destroy the mining wells of Kuwait and other countries, so their oil exports are not enough. will be affected in any way."

Xiao Zhang laughed, and then asked: "Tell me, the current price of international crude oil futures."

The person in charge of the trader was already dumbfounded by watching the news, only to be startled when he heard Xiao Zhang's voice, and then started making calls.

In the era without the Internet, you can only use the phone to get relevant information.

"Boss, it has dropped to 23, from 38 to 23."

People like Ah Xing and Ah Mei couldn't understand what this sentence meant, but Li Dongkai and Zhao Rui looked at Xiao Zhang with shocked eyes. They all knew that the price when Xiao Zhang bought it was 32.

In short, you can earn 9 eagles for a barrel of Xiaozhang, and Xiaozhang has a total of 8102 million barrels.

Rounding it up, this earned 8 million eagle dollars, nearly 60 billion Hong Kong dollars?
"Close the position, close the position quickly."

Zhao Rui shouted excitedly.

Li Dongkai also yelled out: "Yes, yes, close the position quickly, earn 60 billion, send it, send it, let's send it."

Logically speaking, as Li Dongkai is a direct descendant of the Li family, 60 billion is definitely not a fortune for him, and the 60 billion has nothing to do with him.

But the problem is that only 10 billion yuan has been invested in this profit, and it only takes seven days before and after the cycle.

It's more than profiteering.

The trader wanted to close the position subconsciously, but he noticed Xiao Zhang's eyes, so he stopped.

He finally remembered that he was not Zhao Rui's, but Xiao Zhang's.

Xiao Zhang nodded in satisfaction, laughed and said: "Don't worry, as I said, the price of international crude oil will drop to 19, then it will definitely drop to 19. Keep an eye on the price for me, and when it reaches 19, give me the price immediately." Close the position."

"Good boss."

The room fell silent again.

But the emotions were all shocked and inexplicable, because they all heard Li Dongkai said that he earned 60 billion.

They earned 23 billion when the price was 60, but what about when the price was 19?

Everyone knows that the lower the price at this time, the more money Xiao Zhang will make. Is it possible that the price will drop below 19?
This is also true in fact, because it takes time to close a position, and the price of international oil futures fluctuates too fast. When Xiao Zhang successfully closed his position, the price had already fallen below 19 eagle yuan per barrel.

Half an hour later, everyone knew the exact number, the balance of the futures account that Xiao Zhang got after deducting interest and other costs.

11 billion eagle yuan.

In contrast, there is another figure, that is, the foreign exchange reserves of the red side are only 110.93 billion eagle yuan at this time.

Looking at the convincing crowd, Xiao Zhang laughed.

"Open the champagne."
