C1893 Oil Futures

"Our project is still progressing smoothly. I estimate that the Airworthiness Certificate will come in half a year's time." A distant voice came from the other side of the satellite phone.1

After sending Abbas away, Qin Guan started to talk to Lisa on the other side of the ocean. In order to keep it a secret, they used a specialized military communication satellite link. At this time, Lisa still had a business-like attitude. She didn't have any pleasant surprise or favorable impression of Qin Guan's sudden call, or perhaps Lisa was already lazy. She knew that Qin Guan could not possibly have anything with her, or that he was with Lisa. At this moment, Jobs was lying on the bed. According to the time, it should be night over there.

"Is there any difficulty?" Qin Guan asked.

"The problem is still the money. If we want the company to continue operating, we still need more funds to transport the 10 RMB into normal production." Lisa said from the other side.

Apart from money, there was nothing else that could stop her. At the same time, she knew that this problem was not a problem for Qin Guan. Qin Guan had sufficient funds to protect him. He could get as much money as he wanted.

Qin Guan heard Lisa's words and immediately took over the conversation. "This is easy. The headquarters will provide you with some more funds. However, if you use the capital to operate it, the funds will snowball. It's enough for you to use. So, when the funds are over, I suggest that you immediately use the previous method to transfer these funds... Leave behind the necessary expenses and invest the rest into the world's oil futures market. "

In the beginning, there was no such thing as futures. There was no need to trade in this kind of financial market. Whoever needs crude oil... Just buy it from a country with crude oil, that's enough. If you buy it from me, I'll sell it to you. There's no need to trade in the business of two people.

But, in the early 70s, there was an oil crisis that caused a huge impact on the world's oil market. Everyone discovered that this thing was unstable, and there would be violent fluctuations in the price. This phenomenon directly led to the creation of oil futures.

Futures were definitely something with time. This kind of oil futures were not immediately traded, but a form of proof that they would only be traded for a period of time in the future.

Using a complete definition, oil futures were standardized contracts set by the trading center, set at a specific time and place to deliver a certain amount and quality of oil at a certain time and place in the future. It was a type of trading in futures. Or it could be simply understood as futures for items with a long term oil price as the benchmark.

What benefits did this thing have?

For the buyer, because they were afraid of the rise in oil prices, so, I can take three months from the seller in advance... Even oil from half a year later. As for the price... I will buy it at the expected price. After three months... If the oil price rose, then the buyer would benefit from it.

At that time, he could transport the oil over. At the same time, he could also sell the futures in his hands to the people who really needed crude oil. As for the buyer, he could just buy the oil for free and directly make money.

If he had enough capital, he could also play the capital game. For example, if everyone bought futures together, it would lead to a shortage of futures in the market. As for those who really need to buy, they need to spend more money to buy. This was futures. It was the coolest futures back then. It should be some aunty's futures for soybeans. She forcefully used 40 thousand yuan worth of capital to reach a few million.

However, people were all greedy. A game was a game, and they could not withdraw money in time. In the end, it turned out to be a few tens of thousands, and it was all for fun.

The price would not deviate too much from the fluctuation of value. This was the basic economic pattern, and this kind of incentive would not last for long.

And for the seller, it was also beneficial. What if the price fell in the future? As long as the buyer bought futures, he had to trade because the money had already been paid. Moreover, he sold the things that were a few months in advance. If he took the money directly, no seller would reject him.

This formed a rich oil futures market. When it appeared, it immediately became prosperous and the volume of transactions increased rapidly. It surpassed metal futures and became one of the most important futures.

Now, oil futures were the cheapest. Of course, this was because of Y Country. They wanted to play the Bear Country of Ruins. With the help of the Bear Country's invasion of the Mountain Country, they tried their best to persuade them. They wanted those oil producing countries who sympathized with the Mountain Country to increase the production of crude oil. The production of crude oil in the international market increased rapidly. But... User demand was a certain amount, and the current oil futures, the price was quite low. It was simply an absolute vegetable price.

No one played futures anymore, because oil prices were so low. No one was optimistic. If the price continued to drop, wouldn't it be in their hands? In the current oil futures market, other than producers and operators, there was no one else. A large number of speculators had long left this circle.

So, if Qin Guan entered... He would definitely use the lowest cost. He would buy a large amount of oil futures. Now was definitely the lowest price. As long as those two enemies start using the oil mill as the target of the attack... It would immediately cause severe supply constraints. At that time, oil prices would rise at rocket speed!

Qin Guan had not done much of this. He had invested a large sum of money in R Country, but the harvest would still be a few years. He could not harvest it now, and this oil futures would definitely be effective in a few months.

Next, it was the question of who should do it.

Of course, this was what Lisa was best at. When she first bought and sold stocks, it was Lisa who ruined the Douglas. That team was still practicing in Y Country. It was a good time to give this task to them.

They had completely cut off their relationship with their own company. They would not expose the North Industrial Company. They had already registered countless unknown accounts. They would now consume large amounts of oil futures and then wait to earn money!

Thinking of this, Qin Guan's face revealed a look of joy.

"Are you sure that the oil price will rise?" Lisa confirmed it for the last time on the other side of the phone.

"Yes, oil prices will rise in the next few months. So, we must act fast. " Qin Guan said, "At that time, half of the profits will be handed over to the company, and the remaining half will be given to the company. Go and operate it. "

"No, we want 60%." Lisa was bargaining over there.

"Sixty percent." Qin Guan answered very straightforwardly. He originally had a money graveyard. If he was not worried that too much would affect the financial system of this world, Qin Guan would not care about money at all.
