Chapter 826 827 The problem is serious
"Hurry up, find out if there is any news from the United States."

As soon as the Enron stock market closed, Chen Fan immediately said to Zhang Quan, seeing other traders packing up their things and preparing to leave, Chen Fan didn't say anything, the market had already closed, so he let them leave, but after Lin Hong packed up his things, he didn't Instead of leaving, he continued to stay there.

The stock price plunged in the last few minutes, which is really weird. The previous intraday support funds seemed to have disappeared in an instant, and I don’t know if it was because the bankers deliberately kept these funds to attract bulls into the market.

However, judging from the trend at the last time, the market seems to have collapsed, with heavy selling orders, so Chen Fan guessed whether the SEC had already made a decision.

Zhang Quan has been in the trading room for the rest of the time, and when he heard Chen Fan's order, he immediately took out the phone and dialed it. With a burst of chirping birds, Zhang Quan put away the phone, "No, it may not be until tomorrow." We will make a formal decision, but the news should have already spread, and most of the institutions know something about it.”

Hearing this, Chen Fan nodded slightly, but Zhang Quan seemed to have not finished speaking, and continued: "It is said that Enron has urgently contacted the public relations company in Peanutton, and is planning to carry out public relations with the US Securities and Exchange Commission overnight."

"Don't Enron know?"

Chen Fan looked at Zhang Quan in surprise, with question marks all over his face.

"That's what it said over there, but I don't know the details."

Zhang Quan shrugged, saying that he didn't know, he was just a mouthpiece.

The news that he got by accident made Chen Fanruo realize that there seemed to be some big hole hidden behind, although he didn't want to understand what happened.

Before Chen Fan thought about it, the US Securities and Exchange Commission would come forward to investigate such a big matter of Enron Company. As one of the parties involved, Enron Company could not have received some rumors before. Surprised to find that it seems that Enron Company knew about this matter later than itself.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan couldn't help opening his mouth and asked, "Did Enron offend someone?"

"Ok?"

Zhang Quan was slightly stunned, while Lin Hong on the side was also very surprised.

"No way, Enron is a loyal supporter of the new President of the United States. Even if someone wants to start Enron at this time, I'm afraid they will have to worry about the ideas of Peanutton."

Zhang Quan quickly came back to his senses and said, and pointed out that Enron is a supporter of this government. Logically speaking, even if he offends someone, he has to wait a few years before taking action.

Hearing Zhang Quan's words, Chen Fan nodded slightly. Indeed, I forgot about this just now. Enron Company is very good at political speculation, and it is certain to offend people, but this time is probably not the best time.

"However, there should be someone in the U.S. government who has trouble with them, otherwise the news will not be suppressed and they will not know."

Lin Hong also answered at this time, "And there is a high probability that there is a consortium that has taken a fancy to An Ran and wants to eat him, so."

After all, in a society like the United States, it’s too early to be profitable. The current situation shows that someone seems to be targeting Enron, but the actions so far have been very covert, and they are all carried out underwater. So what are the benefits they want? ?
Judging from the situation of Enron Company, that is, some of its high-quality internal assets, maybe someone has taken a fancy to some things of Enron Company, which is why there is such a big battle to force it to submit.

"What is Enron worth remembering?"

Chen Fan asked, in his opinion, what is there to care about a power supply company like Anran, especially to attract the attention of powerful people?
Enron's main assets are electricity and natural gas, which are either power generation equipment or natural gas pipelines. Such assets are indeed very valuable. After all, they are public utilities and belong to the industry that guarantees income from droughts and floods. It is certain to attract stable funds to intervene, but It would be unreasonable to attack Enron just for this reason.

Enron is very big, but it does not mean that it is the only one in the US electricity market.

In the United States, there are many companies with a power generation scale similar to Enron's, and there are so many of them that it is impossible to worry about finding a trading partner, but it is necessary to plan for such a company.

"It really is."

At this time, Zhang Quan suddenly exclaimed, as if he already knew what happened.

"What did you think of?"

Chen Fan looked at Zhang Quan and asked.

"Enron really has a unique project, which is the U.S. electricity trading platform in their hands. Now the U.S. electricity market is controlled by the U.S. Commercial Power Company. A long time ago, there were Wall Street investment banks who wanted to get involved, but Enron flatly refused."

Seeing Chen Fan and Lin Hong staring at him, Zhang Quan hurriedly explained.

"There are rumors that it is Lehman Brothers and Merrill Lynch. I don't know which one it is. I only know that it is a large investment bank in the United States. It has always wanted to participate in the business of this trading platform. For the purpose of profit, they rejected their request for equity participation.”

Zhang Quan went on to say, "However, this news is not very certain. I vaguely remember that it was circulated for a while two or three years ago. Afterwards, because neither party took any action, everyone thought it was a rumor, and naturally no one paid any attention to it.

As they said, Enron did not charge any intermediary fees on the power trading platform except for the basic fees for maintaining the platform, although everyone knows that they can obtain a lot of information through those transactions on the power platform, and Take advantage of it. "

"You mean, this time, someone on Wall Street took action against Enron for the purpose of trading electricity in their hands?"

Chen Fan looked at Zhang Quan and asked, and then saw Zhang Quan nodding.

"In the listed companies in the United States, there are many people who beautify the report, but since last year, it is obvious that someone is targeting Enron, not only the previous communication between Wall Street fund managers, but also the intervention of the paper media behind. Both hands must be planning to get something, and what Enron can attract people's hearts, what others don't have, is the trading platform."

Zhang Quan continued to talk, adding his reasons.

"Controlling the electricity trading market is something that Wall Street can really do. As long as they can win this platform, the income will be a long-term project. Maybe they don't make much money every year, but this is a stable profit, and it's worth their risk."

Lin Hong also answered on the sidelines, apparently agreeing with Zhang Quan's conjecture.

"Market maker?"

Chen Fan also figured it out, controlling the platform is a guaranteed business, if they participate in the transaction again.
Chen Fan couldn't continue thinking about it anymore. He didn't expect a company suspected of financial fraud to be so deeply involved, although these were just speculations.

"The long-term strategic alliance between Wall Street and Peanutton is very complicated. Maybe what we thought before was wrong. Someone really targeted Enron over there."

Zhang Quan said again, but finally said: "An Ran is over."

Yes, there were only three of them left in the trading room at this time, and the other traders packed up their things and left here long ago.

And the three people in the room have already thought in their hearts that there is a high probability that Enron will not be able to pass this hurdle. If you are targeted by the big shots on Wall Street, even if you have a good relationship with the US government, can you still surpass the big guys on Wall Street and provide The interests are also very different.

"What can we get?"

Suddenly, Chen Fan started talking to himself, maybe he didn't even know what he was talking about.

However, Zhang Quan was very smart. Seeing Chen Fan's absent-minded look, he guessed something.

Zhang Quan had been in contact with Chen Fan for a long time, and he was familiar with Chen Fan's previous affairs, so he immediately guessed that this young man, who was probably a small family, had started to act strangely again.

Their previous words revealed their admiration for the trading platform "Enron Online" operated by Enron, and they were full of confidence in the profitability of this trading platform. Perhaps, the boss now has something on his mind.

"Mr. Chen, we may be able to make more money this time."

Zhang Quan felt that he should speak up, and he couldn't let this one fall into it, it was completely impossible.

Chen Fan was surprised, then nodded, but he seemed hesitant to speak.

"It is impossible for the U.S. government to allow forces other than U.S. capital to control that platform."

Zhang Quan went on to say that he believed that Chen Fan might have realized this, but he still had a little thought.

The conversation ended here, and there was no need to continue, but the retaliatory rise in the market that Chen Fan was worried about at any time seemed to have come to an end tonight.

There is a high probability that such a trend will not happen. It is hard to say whether Enron can survive this catastrophe. Now they just need to wait quietly.

When a few people walked towards the elevator, Chen Fan had already wondered in his heart whether Enron would be directly played by Wall Street bosses to the road of bankruptcy.

In the early hours of the morning, Chen Fan returned to his home again. This has been normal for a while, except that sometimes he arrives home two or three hours in the morning.

Usually after returning home, Chen Fan would take a rest after a simple wash, but today Chen Fan suffered from insomnia, and his mind was very confused.

At this time, of course, he was not considering the possibility of having a chance to win "Enron Online", but repeatedly deliberating in his mind how reliable their previous guesses were.

Enron, one of the world's top [-] companies, is it really so easy to be played to death?

When he was at Oak Tree Capital before, Chen Fan hadn't thought about this link. He didn't consider this possibility until he sat in the car and calmed down completely.

If it is said that those capital tycoons really have such a strong influence, Chen Fan suddenly feels that he seems to be too optimistic when he thinks about problems a lot, and he is really fearless if he doesn't know.

World-class big companies will kill them if they want to kill them, and they are still trying to build an investment company. There is also a European paper media group that is complacent, thinking that they are safe and have a little capital, but they have not seen the real Yes, just pay attention to the big guys who hold the real power.

Although I don't know if there is a real person behind the Enron Company controlling all this, anyway, Chen Fan believed it at this time.

At this point, he has been reminding himself constantly to be cautious about the people and things he will come into contact with in the future. God knows when he will encounter something untouchable, and if he puts himself on the opposite side of any big boss, it will be miserable.

During the whole day on Thursday, Chen Fan did not receive a call from Zhang Quan, which means that today is still a period of news vacuum, and it seems that nothing happened.

The weather in the imperial capital is also very hot now, so he seldom goes out during the day. Even though the company is very close to his home, Chen Fan doesn't bother to move.

After having dinner in the evening, I rested for a while before leaving to come to Oak Capital again.

There is no difference between normal and normal days. After sitting for a while, until the rice stock market opened for trading, Chen Fan did not hear the last things they said yesterday from the traders. Lin Hong should have a strict mouth and did not say it. It's just their speculation, and there is no real evidence in hand.

Enron stock continued to open lower today, opening at 28.96 yuan, a small drop, but the trading volume at the opening was also very small. Obviously, after yesterday's sharp drop, the willingness of funds to enter the market today is very small.

After the opening of Enron's stock price, the trading volume decreased significantly compared to before. Even after the stock price opened and the stock price rose briefly, after closing the gap, the trading volume did not improve much, and it was still sluggish.

During the dull trading, Enron's stock price fluctuated around 29 yuan. It did not continue the cycle of falling at the opening of the previous trading days. At least in the first half of today's stock price, it was still firm, and it barely stabilized the downward trend.

However, in such a trend, after the trading volume continues to shrink, such a shrinking sideways trend is something that all market participants do not want to see. After an hour of sideways trading at 29 yuan, Enron still has not much to pay. After it appeared, with the gradually increasing sell orders, Enron's stock price began to fall steadily, and returned to the downward trend of the previous few days.

At this time, in Guangdong City in the south, in a trading room at the headquarters of Southern Investment Group, Mr. Mu was sitting in front of the computer with a cigarette in his hand. On the computer screen was the stock price chart of Enron.

Originally, there was a reception that required him to attend today, and he had promised to attend before.

However, the company's trading department kept reporting problems with Enron's investment, so he had to cancel the trip, and had to sit down in person to see what happened to Enron's stock and whether it was worth buying.

The company's investment plans are made after multi-department joint analysis and research. Under normal circumstances, there should be no mistakes. But now, according to the trading team, it seems that Enron's problems may be serious, and it has already involved investment safety issues.

Although he is not good at trading, Mr. Mu can also see that Enron's stock is not trending well today. Referring to the trend chart seen before, the stock price has continued to fall for several days in a row, and the selling orders have continued unabated.

Although the selling has weakened a bit today, the stock price has not improved, which shows that the problem may be really serious, because no one is buying
