This is actually Xiao Bai's sense of crisis.The time for cassette recorders to become popular is running out, and in the future they will be replaced by audiovisual products such as CD players.The emergence of VCD players and DVD players will replace video recorders and video players, which is the trend of scientific and technological development, which is unstoppable.In fact, there is no difference in the principle of VCD player, DVD player and CD player, except that the first two can play sound and image at the same time, while the latter can only play sound.Of course, there are no VCD players and DVD players now.In Xiao Bai's memory, the emergence of these two products was probably in the early to mid-90s.However, CD players are not new.As early as 1982, RB Sony produced the world's first CD player.But the price of this product is as high as more than 900 dollars, and until now it has not really entered the domestic market, and even in the international world, it has not really become popular.Xiao Bai is very clear that audio-visual products, as the main force of consumer electronics, have broad market prospects in the future.For AUO, it is indeed a good choice to start with the parts of the CD player at this stage.At night.After Xiao Bai and Wang Tiejun had dinner, they came to Ed Futures Company together."
Xiao Dong, are you here?
Have a seat.I think there is something abnormal in the market tonight, you see, WTI crude oil futures September contract, the trading volume has been significantly enlarged, and the market may have big changes. ”As soon as the agent Feng Zhixiang saw Xiao Bai, he pulled him to the computer and sat down, and asked him to see today's time-sharing trend.Xiao Bai looked at it for a while, and basically came to the conclusion that the time he had been waiting for was coming.At around 10 p.m., the trading of the WTI crude oil futures September contract was released, and the price of a barrel of crude oil instantly exceeded $24 to $2,408 per barrel."
Ah Xiang, do it!
Open a short position of 200 lots at $24. ”Xiao Bai no longer hesitated, and immediately issued an operation order to Feng Zhixiang.Feng Zhixiang was a little puzzled, he felt that today's WTI crude oil futures September contract volume surged, and there will definitely be a new high point in the future.However, as an agent, he still has a good professional quality.His own judgment is not important, the important thing is to follow the instructions of the customer.So, in a short period of time?
Feng Zhixiang completed the deal.A lot of WTI crude oil futures?
That's 1,000 barrels of crude oil, and 200 lots is 200,000 barrels of crude oil.According to the price of Xiao Bai's short order of $24 a barrel?
The total value is $4.8 million.However, crude oil futures trading is subject to a margin system?
Xiao Bai only paid a deposit of 7, which is $3.36 million?
That's all it takes."
Thank you, Ah Xiang.I'm going back to sleep now?
I'll go back to Deep City tomorrow?
If you have something, you can pager me. ”Xiao Bai left his pager number to Feng Zhixiang, and then left Ed Futures Company with Wang Tiejun."
This Xiao Dong's trading methods are really radical!"
After Xiao Bai and the others left, Feng Zhixiang sat in front of the computer and shook his head while talking to himself.There are only $480,000 in the other party's account?
You know, this is a leveraged trade.The price of a barrel of crude oil?
If it fluctuates in the opposite direction of 5, Xiao Bai will need to make a margin call.If you don't add margin, when the price moves in the opposite direction by 10, you have to force the position to be closed.Since Xiao Bai opened a short order, the reverse fluctuation refers to the rise in crude oil prices.But when Feng Zhixiang continued to watch the plate for 30 minutes?
I couldn't help but stand up in surprise.WTI crude oil futures traded sideways for less than 30 minutes after breaking through $24 per barrel?
It fell back below $24 per barrel and was no longer able to rise to the $24 mark.The next morning.After Xiao Bai got up?
I received a call from Feng Zhixiang.He was told that the overnight WTI crude oil futures closed at $2,379 per barrel.Hung up?
Xiao Bai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Have a clear memory though?
But he can't be precise about every intraday movement.Is it so frightening to do futures?
It's like guessing the heads and tails of a coin, guessing correctly is the winner of life, and if you guess wrong, you have to go to the roof of the Empire State Building to line up.After eating breakfast, Xiao Bai did not go to Ed Futures Company again.He withdrew from the room and returned to Shencheng with Wang Tiejun.Seeing that the Spring Festival holiday is approaching, most of the employees of AUO Microelectronics and Sihai Electronics are ready to return home for the Chinese New Year, except for a few people who stayed on duty.Deep City is a young city and a city of immigrants.Throughout the Spring Festival, the city seems to have entered a dormant period, and people who have been away for a year will travel far away.Xiao Bai didn't go to the company, and it didn't matter if he went.He returned to Dongxiao Garden, asked Wang Tiejun to make him a cup of coffee, and sat down to call the studio."
Hey, hello!"
The one who answered the phone was Liu Xiaoling, her voice was relatively unique, not very soft, but it had a different charm."
Sister Xiaoling, it's me.What are you doing?
”"Brother Xiao, I'm sorting out the bills for the past two days.When will you be back?
Xiuxiu and I are going home the day after tomorrow. ”"I'll go back early the morning after tomorrow.But when I arrive, you'll be gone.What about Oda, what is she doing here?
”The two chatted casually on the phone, and Liu Xiaoling told Xiao Bai that Tian Chunxiu was packing up at school.Xiao Bai could feel that Liu Xiaoling was in a good mood, so he chatted with her for about twenty minutes, and finally asked, "Who else is in the office now?"
”"Director Wei and Aunt Zhang are here, do you want to find them?"
Liu Xiaoling's finance room has an extension, and generally as long as she is in the studio, she will answer the phone.And Wei Feng and Zhang Xuemei are both working in the editing room, and they have to shout when they answer the phone."
Xiaoling, today you make a table and send a red envelope to everyone a year ago.Now, I say, you make a list. ”When Xiao Bai goes back the day after tomorrow, the people in the studio are almost gone, so he has to arrange this matter in advance.Fortunately, there are so many people in the studio, plus Cui Mingda and Wei Jianjun, who came to help during the winter vacation, there are less than ten people.This time, it is a New Year's red envelope, so there is no distinction, 500 yuan per person, and everyone is treated equally.Liu Xiaoling immediately made a record, and the list included herself, Wei Feng, Zhang Xuemei, Wu Changlin, Liao Kang, Cui Mingda, and Wei Jianjun.Later, Xiao Bai asked her to call Wei Feng to answer the phone, and he explained this to Wei Feng again.Last year, he transferred a lot of 170,000 yuan to the studio, and the money for sending red envelopes came from here.Then, he hung up and made another call to Liang Yuqi.Or for the same thing, he asked Liang Yuqi to remember to give Tian Xiaowu and Xue Pusong a red envelope of 500 yuan each, which was naturally spent from the bookstore.After arranging these things, Xiao Bai went out to buy some local products, mainly some dried seafood or something.In the evening, he called his broker, Ah Xiang, who told him that the price of WTI crude oil futures was still falling, and it was currently $2,332 per barrel.Xiao Bai's heart was even more numerous, he stayed in Shencheng for another day, and on the twenty-eighth day of the Lunar New Year, he and Wang Tiejun drove back to Star City together.It's the Spring Festival of another year.Chinese New Year's Eve was no different from previous years, Xiao Tianfang Liang Yufen's family, Xue Gang Liang Yuqi's family, plus his grandmother, happily ate a New Year's dinner.Wang Tiejun didn't stay in Star City for the New Year in the end, his home was in Xiangxi, and it was only a matter of a few hours to take the train back.On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liang Yuqi Xue Gang's home was much more lively than in previous years.Many people came to pay New Year's greetings to the "Mr.
Xue" of the Hongyan paging station, including the directors of the five subordinate paging stations and Qi Yuefeng, the company's deputy general manager.Xiao Bai did not participate in specific business management, but he also met with everyone and chatted for a while.At noon, he took two bottles of wine, some cooked food, and steamed buns to the storeroom.During the Chinese New Year this year, Cui Mingda and Wei Jianjun were still on duty on both sides of the studio and the warehouse.He called Cui Mingda in advance to come over, and the three of them had a drink together in the duty room of the warehouse."
Brother Xiao, when I officially start my internship in the second half of this year, how about going to Shencheng with you?
I know that you started an integrated circuit company with someone else. ”After Wei Jianjun drank a few glasses of wine, he talked about the internship in the second half of the year.The school's "work-study" program has ended, and there will be no similar activities in the second semester of the third year.In the fall, several of them will enter the internship period, and the four-year college career is about to end.Xiao Bai smiled and nodded, what he did in Shencheng, including AUO Microelectronics and Sihai Electronics, basically everyone around him knew about it, in short, he didn't deliberately publicize it or deliberately conceal it.Wei Jianjun chose the direction of electronic engineering, and it was actually good to go to AUO for an internship.Cui Mingda didn't think about leaving Star City, he had his own children, he was a boy, and after graduation, he had to get married quickly."
Brother Xiao, in more than a year, my brother won't be able to follow you, it's a pity to think about it.Alas, I hope to see you more often after graduation. ”If Cui Mingda hadn't been dragged down, he would have actually wanted to go out."
It's not like I won't come back after leaving Star City, what kind of emotion will I feel during the New Year.Come, Lao Cui, Lao Wei, let's have a drink together. ”Xiao Bai didn't like this kind of sensational scene, he picked up his wine glass and touched a glass of wine with the two, just splitting this paragraph.On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Tiejun returned to Star City from his hometown.When he came to greet Xiao Bai's parents, he brought a full twenty catties of bacon."
Tie Jun, how can we finish eating so much bacon with you.Don't be so polite next time, thank you for us. ”Liang Yufen is no stranger to Wang Tiejun, there are occasional things at home, she and Xiao Tianfang have both used cars, and know that the other party is her son's henchman.Wang Tiejun didn't speak, just sat there and just smiled.Xiao Bai knew that this was Wang Tiejun's deliberate pretend, how could he be so honest on the surface."
Mom, I'm going to go to school and won't be back at night."
The family is also full of people, and Xiao Tianfang is still chatting with his colleagues at this time.Xiao Bai said a word to Liang Yufen, said hello to his father and guests, and went out with Wang Tiejun.
