Wolf of Xiangjiang

Chapter 80 [Fighting from the air]

However, Lin Zhengjie took the initiative to toast Ma Qingzhong simply because Ma Qingzhong was paying attention to his VIP box. In fact, he did not know Ma Qingzhong.

But a more dramatic scene happened next, which became a highlight of today's Hong Kong gold and silver trading market.

Today (Monday), the funds HSBC loaned to Lin Zhengjie's personal account have been received immediately, so Lin Zhengjie came to the gold and silver trading center in the afternoon.

With 4000 million Hong Kong dollars in hand, Lin Zhengjie wants to buy spot gold as soon as possible and deposit it into HSBC as soon as possible so that he can do other things with peace of mind.

"Yawen, speed up and try to buy them all within two days today and tomorrow. I don't have time to waste on this!" Lin Zhengjie said to Ma Yawen in the VIP box.

Ma Yawen has become Lin Zhengjie's "right-hand assistant". For this gold speculation, Lin Zhengjie also paid Asia Securities a commission of about 80 Hong Kong dollars. It's not expensive, after all, it takes several months to prepare, and it costs a lot of money to "membership", "recruit traders", etc.

Of course, Asia Securities has also launched a 'gold investment' project. Later, it will introduce customers to invest in gold and the like, and the commission will be more expensive.

"Okay" Ma Yawen said, then picked up the phone and ordered: "Buy 20 lots immediately"

On the other side, Ma Qingzhong saw Ma Yawen pick up the phone and immediately looked towards the trading desk on the floor. He immediately discovered that the 'buyers and traders' of Asia Securities were active and bought many lots of gold.

"Interesting! There are many media out there bragging about Lin Zhengjie, but I think, since he started from scratch, where did he get such a large amount of funds? I'm afraid he mortgaged some assets and came here to become a speculator!"

Uncle Hai said: "They made a lot of purchases last week, reportedly tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, but gold fell by a few dollars, so they are losing money on their books!"

Ma Qingzhong nodded and said: "Continue to increase the intensity of short selling. I don't believe that the market will go the opposite way just because he is a newbie."

Uncle Hai followed Ma Qingzhong's gaze and looked at Lin Zhengjie's VIP box. He immediately understood that these were two young people fighting in the air.

"Okay" He immediately picked up the phone again.

This scene was also seen by Lin Zhengjie. He turned back and said to Ma Yawen with a smile: "Someone has supplied the goods for us, so we are ready to buy them all this afternoon."

Ma Yawen said 'ah' and said, "Are you sure?"

Although the daily transaction volume here is only a thousand lots of gold (one lot is about 18, and the transaction volume exceeds 4000 million), their 200 million Hong Kong dollars in funds are more than lots.

"Sure, I don't think the people on the other side will let us down."

Ma Yawen looked at Ma Qingzhong, picked up the phone with hesitation, and said inside: "Buy another 20 lots."

In this way, Lin Zhengjie and Ma Qingzhong, one 'buying' and the other 'selling', unexpectedly dominated the Hong Kong gold and silver trading market this afternoon.

trading floor.

"What's going on?"

"It seems that Asia Securities and Tai Seng Bank are betting against each other!"

"Hey, it's true. I'm unfamiliar with this Asian securities company, but he's so courageous that he dares to bet against Dasheng Bank, a long-established gold speculator?"

"You don't know this. Although Asia Securities is a newbie, behind it is Lin Zhengjie, who has been in the limelight recently."

"Lin Zhengjie, he is so famous. He is the youngest listed chairman. He has passed five levels in a row and achieved what many veteran businessmen have achieved in a lifetime."

"That's right, the person who is in charge of the gold speculation at Dasheng Bank is Ma Jincan's second son, Ma Qingzhong. We are all young people. Maybe they are already having a fight upstairs."

After just a brief exchange, the field became the focus again.

Due to the leverage between Asia Securities and Tai Seng Bank, the price of gold is running at 221 US dollars per ounce (equivalent), and people are buying and selling at the same time.

Lin Zhengjie and Ma Qingzhong upstairs naturally knew what the other party was doing, and they had already reached a "bargain". Of course, the two maintained their demeanor, smiled and clinked glasses frequently.

But every time they clink glasses in the air, they will issue an order - buy or sell.

The war between the two filled the Hong Kong gold and silver trading market for an entire afternoon. Other gold speculators naturally joined their respective camps. Short sellers had the upper hand that day, and the price of gold finally fell to US$219 per ounce (equivalent).

Lin Zhengjie felt happy, wasn't this a disguised cost savings for him!
What he wants is physical gold, so once delivered, he can ask the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Trading Center - the other party to deliver his physical gold, that is, cash out from the gold and silver trading market.

"Second Young Master, we have sold gold worth 4000 million Hong Kong dollars, it's time to stop!" Uncle Hai advised.

Seeing Lin Zhengjie stop, Ma Qingzhong said cheerfully: "Since our opponents don't want to play anymore, we won't play either! Let's go and meet them."

After a while, Lin Zhengjie and Ma Qingzhong met in the passage.

"This is Ma Qingzhong, the general manager of Dasheng Bank. Who are you?"

"It turns out to be Ma Sheng, and I am Lin Zhengjie from Taifu Group!"

Ma Qingzhong said with a smile: "It turns out to be Lin Sheng who has been stealing the limelight recently. I wonder who has the courage to speculate in gold in the gold and silver trading market." His tone was not good, what does it mean to steal the limelight.

Lin Zhengjie said calmly: "I'm just taking care of some assets for my friends. It's not as good as Ma Sheng who opened a bank and managed finances for all the depositors."

Ma Qingzhong immediately said: "Of course the depositors' money is their money. With today's funds, how can the depositors' money be touched? Since Lin Sheng is optimistic about the future of gold, is he interested in competing on the sidelines?"

The so-called off-market trading means that everyone conducts gold transactions privately.

However, the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange strictly prohibits members from engaging in off-site knocking. Once discovered, their membership will be cancelled.

Lin Zhengjie smiled and said: "I only trust the gold and silver trading field, Ma Sheng, then we will meet again!"

Immediately taking Ma Yawen away from the scene, Ma Qingzhong immediately said unhappily: "What are you pretending to be? It's just a rootless person. One day he might lose everything."

Uncle Hai echoed from the side: "This is a big speculator, so he is not lucky every time. Based on the amount of gold he purchased recently, I am afraid he has already lost millions."

Ma Qingzhong said: "There will be many opportunities in the future to fight with him in the gold and silver trading field!"

They thought Lin Zhengjie was here to 'speculate gold' and he was also a big speculator, so they would have the confidence to deal with Lin Zhengjie here.

On Tuesday, international gold rose by US$4, reaching US$220.7 per ounce;
On Wednesday, international gold rose by US$7 to US$227.3 per ounce.

In just two days, international gold soared by US$11, an increase of nearly 5%.

In the Hong Kong gold and silver trading market, a reversal also occurred, with gold rising straight up. In two days, the increase exceeded the increase in international gold, reaching nearly 6%, reaching 232 US dollars per ounce (converted, actually calculated in , per lot) trade).

Therefore, the 'result' of the battle between Lin Zhengjie and Ma Qingzhong that day was immediately reported - Ma Qingzhong's loss reached more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars. This is still his loss in two days. If he continues to sell short, he will lose more.

On Lin Zhengjie's side, he took physical gold from the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange and continued to deposit it in HSBC Bank.

"Second Young Master, the chairman asked you to go to the office!" Uncle Hai found Ma Qingzhong and said.

Ma Qingzhong suddenly said nervously: "Uncle Hai, is it something related to the gold and silver trading center?"

Uncle Hai nodded and said, "Winning or losing is normal in the past, but now there is news in the gold and silver trading field that you are fighting with Lin Zhengjie, so this makes the chairman very angry."

Ma Qingzhong suddenly became embarrassed. Uncle Hai was right. Failure is a common occurrence for military strategists. He has made a lot from gold speculation over the years and lost little, so this time is nothing.

However, that day really felt like a fight of anger, so my father would definitely scold him.

Sure enough, when he walked into Ma Jincan's office, Ma Qingzhong was yelled at.

"Losing a few million is a small thing, but losing the face of our Ma family is a big deal. You, a person who has been speculating in gold for a year or two, are actually fighting with a young man who has just been in the industry for a few months. Can you understand something!" Ma Jincan said angrily.

"Dad, I'm definitely not angry, the world was gold at that time." Ma Qingzhong argued.

"Put it off and sell more than 4000 million Hong Kong dollars in gold in half a day. Is this normal?" Ma Jincan directly stated the key point.

For a moment, Ma Qingzhong was speechless and had to be scolded.

Ma Jincan continued to lecture: "You not only made a mistake, but also the biggest mistake. Do you know what it is?"

Ma Qingzhong lowered his head and thought, and then said: "We did not make full use of our advantages and unite our allies to operate together."

Ma Jincan said: "You know why you still make mistakes? Although the gold price of the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange is linked to international gold, it is not exactly the same. Our Tai Seng Bank is the governing unit of the Gold and Silver Exchange and has been involved in gold speculation for more than 30 years. How can a young boy afford to offend him? In the future, if you encounter him, use your brain more and don't get into such a dispute of temperament again."

"That's what father taught you!"

Ma Jincan waved his hand, hoping that his son would learn his lesson and regain his place in the gold and silver trading market.

afterwards.

Ma Qingzhong was determined to move back to the place. When he came to the gold and silver trading place, he was told a 'bad news' by Uncle Hai.

"Second Young Master, that Lin Zhengjie is not speculating in gold futures at all, but speculating in spot gold. According to people in the market, Lin Zhengjie has invested tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars in gold and deposited it in HSBC Bank."

Ma Qingzhong was so angry that he vomited blood, because this meant that he had "no hope of revenge"!
"Now that he has entered this industry, I will always have a chance to fight with him again!"

Thinking of him being the second son of the Ma family, a top student majoring in overseas finance, and having been speculating in gold for two years, with the backing of Dasheng Bank; unexpectedly, he was tricked by a young man who had just entered the industry, and he suddenly felt eager for revenge. impulse.

Ma Qingzhong was destined to keep this anger in his belly for a long time.

But he didn't expect that next time, Lin Zhengjie would already target the Ma family, and there was a chance that the Ma family would regret today's actions.
