"Of course, international oil prices have skyrocketed," Chris replied without hesitation: "This is your final guess, Eric, but this is impossible. Do you know what Iraq ’s invasion of Kuwait means? These two The country ’s proven oil reserves account for one-fifth of the world ’s known oil reserves. Once Iraq annexes Kuwait, Saddam can arbitrarily manipulate international oil prices, which is equivalent to pushing himself to the position of a public enemy. Will agree. [Ads: This site has a new website, shorthand method:,.] Even if he is a lunatic, it is impossible to do so. "
"Since everyone thinks so, I want to bet on it. I bet that the Middle East will have a war in three months, Chris. If you do n’t want to help me, I just have to take the money to New York. The Commodity Exchange has opened an account, won't you just watch me as a layman go in and get pitted? "When it comes to the end, Eric played up an emotional card.
Chris listened to Eric's shameless tone, but he couldn't help crying: "Eric, your current net worth has reached the level of 1billion USD, you can already buy everything you want, is it necessary to take this risk? You just said you want to take control The liquidity of all the companies underneath is withdrawn. Once the money is completely lost, this is a big trouble. The incident just happened at the beginning of the year. If the seven major Film Studio know that the Firefly liquidity is exhausted, they will certainly not hesitate. Once again, the mall is cruel, do n’t expect others to be kind. "
Eric said confidently: "Why not think about it in a good direction, in case I bet it right?"
Chris smiled and gently persuaded a pen in his hand: "Eric, why do n’t you calm down for two days, play in New York, or go on a vacation?"
“Chris, I ’m calm, I ’ve decided, if you do n’t agree, I will go to Petroleum Brokerage Firm to do it myself,” Eric got up.
Chris sees that Eric is not cheating. Helplessly waved his hands and said: "Okay, okay, I promise you, you sit down first."
The two discussed some details, Chris called the company's finance Manager: "Eric. You first go to Webber to go through the transfer procedures, I will wait for you."
After Eric left with the company ’s financial Manager, Chris picked up the phone in front and dialed the number of Jeffrey: "Papa, Eric, did he tell you?"
After a few words on the phone, Chris said again: "It seems that Eric did not tell you about this matter. However, it is not clear on the phone. I think you should visit New York, Eric ... … Something is hot, I can't persuade it. "
Quickly say a few words, Chris quickly hung up the phone and walked out of the office.
......
Elisa Brighton could not help but look at the three people sitting in the living room again. This is the second day when Eric came to New York. After ending shoots of "Basic Instinct", Jeffrey returned to the farm he had bought in Maryland. It takes less than a week to rest for a while. old man hurried to New York because of a call from his son.
At this time, all three were silent. Before Jeffrey had been persuading for an hour, Eric had no meaning to let go. Chris was awkward to see the scene and suddenly said to his girlfriend in the kitchen: "Ellie, dinner Are you okay? "
"Well, it's alright," Elisa replied quickly.
"Should we eat first?" Chris tentatively asked.
Eric did n’t mean to be froze with Jeffrey, and said with a grin: "Jeffrey. Let ’s eat first, and then persuade you, and do n’t be hungry."
old man snorted with a stinky face and got up and walked towards the restaurant. Eric shrugged to Chris, Chris sighed helplessly.
Elisa Brighton was originally a very talkative girl. If at other times, she must have looked for a topic or two to stir up the atmosphere on the table, but at this time, the girl was sitting quietly beside Chris. Eating dinner without a word.
After a silent meal for a while, Jeffrey finally spoke softly and said: "Eric, this matter must not be kept secret. You want to fire that ... Petroleum Petroleum, you can, but you ca n’t put all your money in. , Let alone speculation with loans, if someone knows that you have lost all your money, you will definitely take the opportunity to pinch the Firefly neck. "
"Jeffrey, why can't you think about it in a good place, in case you make a profit?"
"How can there be such a good thing, here is Wall Street, but not Hollywood, we are all amateurs."
Chris said in a timely manner: "Yeah, Eric, Wall Street is the site of a financial predator. Petroleum is actually a two-way betting contract. If you make money, it means that others lose money. The more you earn The more people lose, the more they will lose. In this case, do you think your opponent will be willing? When I was working in Morgan Stanley, I saw these big investments acted in my own interest, manipulated the financial market, do n’t say anything SEC (Securities Transaction Management Committee), that is, FBI is not wrong to take these giant crocodiles. "
"We have a small market of 200 million USD, and those big investment banks are not guilty of targeting us?" Eric shrugged and said easily, not to mention, once the Middle East fight, crude oil prices soared, any tricks of financial giants are here Under this general trend, there are only those who are scattered by big waves.
The father and son of Jeffrey glanced at each other and calmed down again. Eric did n’t want to continue to struggle with this problem. He looked at Elisa Brighton sitting next to Chris. I remember last year ’s Thanksgiving. As always.
"Ellie, is your clothing company listed? I remember that Thanksgiving seemed to say this thing last year?"
Elisa looked at his boyfriend with a grudge, and shook his head: "There is no drama in three years."
"It's okay, when you make money this time, I can invest if you want," Eric said with a smile.
Elisa smiled and said okay, and it did n’t take it seriously. She has been with Chris for a long time. The girl also knows how big the risk is in the Petroleum market. How much money does an investor like Eric throw in and can take it out completely That's not bad, the possibility of making money is very slim.
"Eric, where do you live now?" Jeffrey asked again.
"I booked a suite at the Sixty Soho Hotel on Sixth Avenue, and I plan to live there during this time."
Jeffrey did not know the location of Sixth Avenue, and after looking at his son, Chris explained: "Sixth Avenue is very close to the New York Commodity Exchange."
Jeffrey sighed, Eric even considered this detail, it seems that this matter has no room for maneuver: "Chris, during this time you put down the investment company first, concentrate on helping Eric, try to ... … "
"I understand, Papa," Chris nodded.
In the next few days, Chris started to help Eric hire traders to handle account opening, and Jeffrey also followed the two young people all day. Of course, there was also a lot of disputes during the period, mainly about the ratio of Petroleum margin.
Eric hopes that the margin ratio is 5%, that is, 20 times leverage, which can enlarge the funds of 200 million USD to 4billion, but Chris and Jeffrey agree that five times leverage and 20% margin should be used.
Eric knows that the father and the son are for their own sake. There is no death, and they disputed all morning. At the end, both parties took a step back, 10% margin, and ten times leverage.
In July, crude oil prices in the Petroleum market rose again, and it was close to the high of 19USD per barrel.
Eric and Chris hurriedly formed Petroleum trading team also began to enter the field.
Because of the situation in the Middle East, a large number of speculators have entered the crude oil Petroleum market. Only the New York commodity exchange, the daily trading volume of crude oil Petroleum has exceeded 100,000 hands (New York Stock Exchange crude oil Petroleum per hand 1,000 barrels), daily transactions The amount reached 2billion USD.
With the current situation in the Middle East, many people are betting that some people hope that the price of crude oil will fall back to the position of 14USD a few months ago. Of course, some people judge that the price of crude oil will continue to rise.
Therefore, the Eric bullish and long team does not seem too eye-catching. However, in order not to attract too many people ’s attention, Chris controls the daily transaction amount to about 10 million USD. According to this progress, it is enough in eight The funds of 200 million USD were all spent a few months ago, and Eric did not raise any objections.
As previously stated by Chris, after the crude oil price climbed to 19USD, it no longer rose significantly, but began to fluctuate between 18USD and 20USD. Jeffrey is more worried than two young people every day, although Eric buys The Petroleum contract delivery dates are all after October, but the profit and loss of Petroleum transactions are settled daily. After each day's closing, Jeffrey will hold a calculator and calculate how much it has earned and lost for the Petroleum contract today.
Worried that old man is so worried about getting a heart attack, Eric and Chris have more than once persuaded Jeffrey to return to the Maryland farm, but all the methods are useless.
After a busy day, Eric returned to the hotel where he lived. After taking a shower, he was planning to make a few calls back to Los Angeles. He heard the sound of the doorbell. Although he knew that there were many people in New York, he lived Not many people know the address of the hotel.
Opening the door curiously, a petite little body jumped directly onto Eric, and koala curled around the waist of Eric, touching and kissing for a while.
This situation is really destructive. Eric quickly returned to the room and closed the door. Then he pumped twice on the little buttocks wearing hot pants in Drew and asked indulgently: "Are n’t you going to Hawaii for a vacation? Come here? "
The girl left Eric to throw herself on the sofa, lying there propping up her rounded chin, her eyes staring at Eric, laughing happily: "Jeffrey says you are crazy, let me persuade you to go back to Los Angeles for treatment. "(To be continued.) Xh118
