Chapter 723 Just Sitting There
As the name implies, physical transactions in gold trading refers to physical delivery, including gold bars and gold coins. Investors purchase gold bars at the gold price of the day and pay for them. After the payment, the gold bars belong to the investors and are kept by the investors themselves. After the gold price rises, investors take the gold bars to the designated acquisition center to sell them.
This investment method is mainly used by large gold merchants or national central banks as their own production materials or as national foreign exchange reserves. It is more troublesome to trade and has the characteristics of being easy to buy but difficult to sell.
Spot gold margin trading is more commonly used and more convenient. In layman's terms, for example, a stone worth four yuan. You only need to use a margin of 100 yuan to trade it. In this way, if you have 100 yuan, you can own four stones worth 100 yuan. If the price of each stone rises by 100 yuan, it will become 100 yuan. You sell them and you will make a net profit of 100 yuan.
Margin trading is to use this lever principle to magnify funds and make full use of limited funds to make a small investment.
Spot gold trading is basically a spot transaction. Delivery is made immediately after the transaction or within a few days. The main purpose of gold futures trading is hedging, which is a supplement to spot trading. After the transaction is completed, the transaction is not immediately completed. Instead, the two parties sign a contract and pay a deposit, and then the delivery is carried out on the scheduled date. Its main advantage is that a large number of futures can be mastered with a small amount of funds, and the price of the contract can be transferred in advance, which has a lever effect.
Both gold futures and spot gold have short-selling mechanisms, which can make profits in both directions. There are profit opportunities in both rising and falling markets. You can open and close positions multiple times on the same day, but gold futures have a delivery date and must be delivered. Otherwise, it will be forcibly closed or delivered in kind, while spot gold has no delivery restrictions. It can be held indefinitely, but it will also be forcibly closed when the margin is insufficient.
Fan Wubing's subordinates are bullish on the international gold market at this time, so they naturally have to buy a lot of transactions. At this time, with Fan Wubing's consent, Song Yuanping and others began to arrange the work of gold spot and futures markets around the world and began to hoard a lot of gold.
The Internet craze has created a peak of four times the number of US companies going public this year. So far, the financing has exceeded 30 billion US dollars, setting a historical high. The popularity of US Internet stocks has also attracted the imagination of Chinese Internet companies. A wave of financing and listing has entered the countdown.
At the beginning of the year, Sina.com received 25 million US dollars of venture capital, including investment from Goldman Sachs. Sina's senior management proudly announced to the world that the financing and merger had completed the run-up and would definitely be listed on the Nasdaq Growth Enterprise Market in the United States within the year.
As a result, this idea was broken by another website. In the middle of this month, China.com, which has never been very high-profile, was successfully listed on the Nasdaq market. It raised about 84 million US dollars and created a precedent for Chinese websites to successfully raise funds in the United States.
When Xia Tianwang arrived, NetEase moved its headquarters from Guangzhou to ** and completely revamped its website.
On June 3, NetEase announced that it would set a new media website as the starting point for China's digital life and digital business.
It shows that NetEase aims to provide a number of interactive services including e-commerce.
Coincidentally, Sohu's branches in Shanghai and Guangzhou were also opened respectively. The direct purpose is self-evident. Expand the local market and develop localized services.
After obtaining sufficient development funds, the three major portals have a very different confidence. They are in a race to be the first to be listed on the Nasdaq market and become the leader of domestic portals in financing in the United States.
In fact, in terms of financing amount, the funds raised by the three major portals have far exceeded the achievements of China.com on Nasdaq. However, no one would think that money is too little. The significance of being able to successfully raise funds in the United States is not only to raise money, but also to show that their companies have been recognized by American investors. This significance is very important to them.
Fan Wubing calculated that it is already July. It is not appropriate for the three major portals to be listed on Nasdaq too close, which is not conducive to financing, but it should not be too far away, otherwise it will not be possible to form the scale effect of Chinese Internet stocks entering the US stock market. The momentum is not big enough. The best choice is half a month interval.
Of course, this is a bit difficult in operation, but the biggest advantage now is that Fan Kang holds a considerable part of the equity of the three major portals, and his words can be said to be resounding. Even several major investment banks have to consider his right to speak, so this matter is not impossible to operate.
If the three major portals are listed before the National Day, there will definitely be a bright future before the Internet bubble bursts. There will be many opportunities to sell many of the shares. When the stock price falls below one dollar, it will be a good time to buy back from the market and increase the shareholding ratio.
Internet listed companies always have to go through several years of cold winter. I have a lot of time to wait. Once again, I can get cheaper chips to prepare for the arrival of the next real Internet era.
"Chinese people always like to go to extremes. They are either overconfident or have no confidence in themselves and need to be recognized by others to cheer themselves up." Fan Wubing said to Zhang Qi. "This has led to China always lagging behind others in some areas. For example, movies always have to be taken abroad to win awards, but the response in the domestic market is mediocre. It is really boring to be unable to gain a foothold in the local market and blindly cater to foreigners' aesthetics."
Zhang Qi smiled and listened to Fan Wubing's big discussion. From time to time, CCTV staff members passed by them and looked at Fan Wubing who was talking in surprise, and then looked at Hui Qi, who was sitting aside and looking at Fan Wubing with a smile. Where do young men come from? It looks a bit familiar.
This time Fan Wubing accompanied Zhang Qi to CCTV to implement his current theory on intelligence work.
When they were at home, Fan Wubing told Zhang Qi that CCTV was actually a place with an extremely large amount of information. Don't look at those people who were all silent. They were all excited in their hearts. Today, as soon as Fan Wubing accompanied Zhang Qi on stage, many people would notice this matter and quickly learn the details of Fan Wubing.
"What are the benefits of doing this?" Zhang Qi was a little confused about Fan Wubing's approach.
"Of course there are benefits." Fan Wubing gave Zhang Qi a strange look and then said to her, "Are you confused about who I am?"
Although Fan Wubing has not been around CCTV in the past two years, this does not mean that no one knows who he is. In fact, although the grassroots employees of CCTV have changed a lot or they can't notice that the boss of Fan Investment Group is sitting in the corner of the hall to seduce Cui Qi, the most youthful and beautiful beauty host on the station, basically the senior management of the station are How could they not notice this situation because they had been in contact with Fan Wubing and under the influence of Fan Heng?
The station director is just a deputy ministerial level treatment. For a big shot like Fan Wubing, few people can ignore his existence.
Sure enough, just when Fan Wubing and Zhang Qi were sitting in the hall chatting, the station director had already received the news.
"Fan Wubing is here? He's with Zhang Qi. Is that the beautiful female host?"
The director has big things in mind all day long. Of course it's not what some people think. There is plenty of time to seduce the female host on the station.
In fact, the female anchors who can sneak into the station will always have some connections with the station director and other senior management who can be exploited. They will not be so bored that they have to eat grass on the sidelines and get themselves into a lot of trouble. That is, those grassroots leaders. They just like to grab all the resources that can be easily captured.
"Yes, the two of them are sitting in the hall chatting, and they seem to have a good relationship." The director's confidant replied.
"Well, I understand. You go back. The bar manager nodded, picked up the files on the table and started to read them.
When the confidant saw the boss's appearance, he immediately left very knowingly.
After the cronies left, the director put down the documents in his hand and thought about it for a while. Then he dialed the director of the entertainment channel, "Hey, Old Liu, I want to ask you something. Your very beautiful female host is called Zhang Qi, right? What is she doing recently? Why is one eye missing from the scene? Many people are asking. When asked about this matter, Lao Liu from the entertainment channel couldn't help but sneered a few words. It's probably not what the people think but what the station director thinks. Of course, this can't be said. He said it politely and said with a smile, "Oh, Director, you mean Zhang Qi!" There is a reason for this. She recently took a leave of absence and said she wanted to learn something, probably about finance. Because although her working relationship is in Taiwan, she is directly under the leadership of New Silk Road Entertainment Company, so there is nothing we can say here if she agrees. "
"Oh, so that's it. The director nodded and then said, "It's always good for young people to learn more. This is what we as leaders should encourage. She is a good seedling in our station. You are the direct leaders. You should be more concerned about it. "Yes, yes... Old Liu promised and waited until he put down the phone and said inexplicably. "It's really weird. Why did the station director suddenly say these things to me? Could it be that the little girl suddenly dropped her body and got married to a rich man? "
Lao Liu thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Xin said that since the station director expressed his attention to Xiqi.
Next time he sees Cuiqi, he has to ask her carefully, otherwise he will not respect the leader's words enough. But if he wants to show kindness to the little girl now, he feels that he still can't pull that face off.
However, the station director dropped the truth and muttered. "Finance?"
His jaw dropped and he immediately called the director of the financial channel. Is your "Daily Financial Topics" going to select a new host? "
"Yes, the station director is currently looking for hosts within the station and in local Taichung. Now there are more than 20 candidates, all of whom are of good quality. We are planning to organize an expert review team to select two people. The principle is that there will be one male and one female director of the financial channel. Xiao Li immediately reported the progress of the work to the station director.
"Ah, oh, oh, the director nodded and listened to the phone until Xiao Li finished his report. Then he asked gently, "Is little girl Zhang Qi also participating? I saw that she was reading a monograph on finance. "
"Oh? Xiao Li, the director of Zhangqi's financial channel, is not a slow person. He immediately reacted after hearing what the channel director said. "We are very optimistic about her. As long as she doesn't give up, I think the position of the female host must be hers." ”.
When would a high-ranking existence like the director of the joke station personally care about the position arrangement of a female host? Even if he mentioned it casually, he would not call him before the expert review. And the tone of his voice just now definitely shows that he is following Fengqi. The relationship is very close. Doesn’t this almost explicit attitude of speaking explain the problem?
After listening to Xiao Li's words, the station director laughed heartily and said, "Young people should pay more attention to them. To help them grow up quickly, financial programs are developing very quickly. We need to find some new people to support this area." My business is coming."
"The station director said it very well. Xiao Li said with emotion, "Our channel has always attached great importance to innovation. This time, one of the criteria for selecting hosts for "Daily Financial Topics" is that the hosts should be younger. Today, the director of the station expressed his support for our work. We are confident that we will do better in the future. "
"Okay, do it well. I'm very optimistic about you." The station manager put down the phone with a smile and thought. It seems that Xiao Li understood the leader's intention.
Fan Wubing and Zhang Qi sat in the lobby on the first floor of the CCTV husband's building for an hour. Then he stood up and said to Zhang Qi, "Okay, let's go back together."
"Ah?" Zhang Qi asked with some confusion, "Is this okay?"
"Haha, don't worry, there are smart people in front of you in this building. I have been here with you for an hour and I can already explain the problem. If a few discerning people haven't reacted, then they are not in the media." Fan Wubing smiled. Then he said, "Where do we need to spend some time now?"
"Oh, the market has opened again." Zhang Qi looked at his watch and said to Fan Wubing innocently.
