"The meaning of futures is that, for example, you are a soybean farmer. The soybean price on the market is 3,800 yuan per ton. The soybeans you grow in the field can be harvested in 3 months.

Then you are worried that if everyone’s soybeans are ripe in 3 months and this year is a bumper year, then the price may fall.

I am a businessman, and my opinion is different from you. I think there may be floods next month, because soybeans will reduce production due to floods. Of course, the supply is in short supply and the price of soybeans will rise.

Okay, so we hit it off and we agreed that in 3 months, when the soybeans in the field are harvested, you will still sell them to me at the current price of 3,800 yuan per ton. This is called futures.

The period is 3 months, and the goods are soybeans.

So, after 3 months, no matter what the market price of soybeans is, you have to sell it to me at a price of 3,800 yuan.

Suppose that during this period, there was really a flood, soybean production was reduced, and the price soared, reaching 5,000 per ton, then three months later, you will give me the soybeans you produced at a price of 3,800 per ton according to the agreement.

Now the market is 5,000 per ton, and once I sell it, I make 1,200.

On the other hand, if this year is a big harvest, the soybean production is very high, the price falls, and it falls to 3,000, I'm sorry, I still have to buy it from you at a price of 3,800 yuan as agreed, and the market price is only 3,000, then I will lose 800.

This is the reason and use of futures.

As a businessman, my goal is to get the price difference through the price rise and fall, and what I do is speculate..."

Under Guan Qiu's "suffering" situation, Park Ruo was still unable to resist and explained in detail the trading model of the stock and futures markets to him.

After roughly understanding, Guan Qiu asked, "I heard that futures can be used for leverage, right?"

Crude oil is a commodity transaction. If you really want to make a fortune in war with those American consortiums, it will require a lot of money, otherwise you will not make much money at all.

Judging from the current growth rate of the crude oil market, if you buy at the fastest speed, even if you buy $35 per barrel, it will rise to $50 and sell, and the yield is 40.

10 million is only a floating profit of 4 million, and the handling fee is deducted.

The most important thing is that crude oil futures trading has not yet been opened in China, so we need to go to the United States.

If you buy thirty or fifty or hundreds of hands (1,000 barrels per hand), then it’s better not to mess around.

Park Ruo had a faint sadness on her face.

Listening to a financial idiot asks about these most basic common sense, just like a three-year-old child asking a university professor whether one plus one equals two. There is no sense of superiority in knowledge, nor the frustration of killing a chicken with a slaughter, but only full of helplessness.

She really wanted to say to him, please, let me go!

"Is it?"

"right!"

"How much leverage can you do the best?"

"Didn't I tell you that crude oil futures are margin trading, with a ratio of about 7%, equivalent to 14 times leverage."

Guan Qiu scratched his head embarrassedly, "Haha, I forgot. So, as I said so, if I had a principal of $10 million now, it could be enlarged to $140 million?"

"right!"

Guan Qiu calculated that forty percent of 140 million is US$56 million. After deducting the messy expenses, it will be calculated at US$50 million.

What is the US dollar exchange rate now?

1:823?

Just calculate it by 1 to 8, 50 million is 400 million.

"Hiss..." Guan Qiu took a breath.

Although the futures market is definitely much more complicated than what Park Ruo said before, one thing is certain that crude oil prices will definitely skyrocket.

Since that's the case...

When Guan Qiu thought of the Entrepreneur Star Gala, Zhou Weikun, chairman of ib Greater China, who was highly anticipated under the lights, his ambitions quickly expanded.

Asked again, "At 14 times the maximum?"

"Of course it's more than that! International trading can do leverage trading 20-400 times."

Guan Qiu was stunned when he heard this, "4...400 times? Didn't you joke with me?"

In Park Ruo's opinion, Guan Qiu's expression was not surprised at all, but "excited to the point of stuttering", pouring cold water, "You must know that while increasing the leverage, the handling fee will also increase accordingly. Depending on the dealer, each hand requires a handling fee of 30-50 US dollars, which can reach up to 100 US dollars.

In addition, crude oil futures fluctuate greatly. The higher the leverage, the smaller the fluctuation it can withstand. If it is enlarged to the extreme, a little slight fluctuation may be lost."

Guan Qiu couldn't hear Park Ruo's words at all, and he was thinking about 400 times of leverage in his mind.

400 times...

Damn...

Doesn’t this mean that 10,000 US dollars is operated as 4 million US dollars? How much is 10 million US dollars?

$4 billion?

Fuck

But Guan Qiu quickly understood that this was impossible.

If he really dares to do this, those international capital giants will smash several large orders in a row and directly "eliminated three times".

Even he, a financial idiot, could understand such a simple truth, and of course Park Ruo knew better. She kept it in her mouth and laughed at him after she asked.

This little woman is so bad.

Isn’t it just sleeping with Qin Lan for one...two nights, what’s the big deal?

After learning about some leverage gameplay with Park Ruo, Guan Qiu stood up and said, "In this way, you can help me apply for a passport to the United States as soon as possible. I will go find funds now."

Seeing him thinking of the first one, Park Ruo said angrily, "What should I do here in the company?"

The negotiations between Tianxiu Payment and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China are only halfway through, so don’t care?

Also, the project in Huacheng Town is about to be launched. We both left, who will be responsible?"

Guan Qiu said, "Isn't there a project leader? I asked them to do it. As for the payment work, I will put it aside for the time being and will talk about it when I come back."

As he said that, Guan Qiu had already opened the door and walked out hurriedly.

Qin Lan, who was cooking in the kitchen, stretched out her head and shouted, "You won't eat."

"You guys eat..."

...

After being reborn, Guan Qiu was either borrowing money or on the way to borrow money.

He had enough of these days.

He doesn't know whether Baidu will acquire 265, but in the future, whether it is Tianxiu Payment or the scale of real estate companies, it will require huge financial support.

So this time, either don’t play, just play a big one.

After consideration, he called Zhao Qianxiu and went directly to Sucheng.

At 1:30 p.m., the two met at a time-honored teahouse in Sucheng.

Zhao Qianxiu didn't know Guan Qiu's purpose before. When he knew that he was here to borrow money, he said funny, "Didn't you just earned 10 million yuan? You'll spend it so soon?"

Guan Qiu was also a little depressed. Last month, I was very excited about the text message on the room. In a blink of an eye, I became a pauper again, and there was still a lot of foreign debt outside.

It’s so embarrassing to be reborn as a person who is like this.

"Don't mention it, we will tear down the east wall every day to repair the west wall."

Zhao Qianxiu smiled and asked, "Tell me, how much do I need?"

Guan Qiu said, "30 million, US dollars."

Zhao Qianxiu "...You think I run a bank."

Guan Qiu smashed his mouth and smiled and said, "Don't tell lies in front of Mingren. 30 million is not a waste to you, Zhao Caishen. Just tell me directly, whether to borrow it."

Zhao Qianxiu laughed and picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Guan Qiu asked, "What does it mean? Serve tea and see off guests?"

“…”

Zhao Qianxiu looked at him in shock, then shook his head speechlessly, "You are borrowing 30 million US dollars with this word, so you must have some guarantees, right?"

"If you want the mortgage, just say it. You have to pretend to be deep with me, a rough man." Guan Qiu complained, saying, "67.com's shares are 30%."

Zhao Qianxiu shook his head and said, "I know that the outside world now has a high valuation of 67.com, but it's a pity that I'm not very interested in Internet companies..."

Just when Guan Qiu thought Zhao Qianxiu was unwilling, Zhao Qianxiu paused and said, "So the minimum is 40."

"..." Guan Qiu said speechlessly, "Okay, forty is forty."

Anyway, this money is a temporary loan. If the price of crude oil rises quickly, at that time, you can cash out part of it and return it to him first.

Zhao Qianxiu then asked, "In addition, my interest rate is very high. I will give you an acquaintance price, and the monthly interest rate is at least 20."

Guan Qiu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, no problem!"

Zhao Qianxiu is really strange now. What can Guan Qiu borrow such a large amount of money at all costs? Could it be that something big has happened to 67.com? He wants to cash out and leave?

With this question in mind, Zhao Qianxiu asked with a smile, "Can you tell me, why are you borrowing so much money for?"

Guan Qiu grinned and said, "I'll tell you about the consultation fee of 10 million yuan."
