Chapter 343 Hurry up and invite Master Lu!

The soybean purchasing group in the previous life suffered a disastrous defeat and the entire army was annihilated. Apart from believing in America, they also suffered from the loss of information.

Unfamiliar with the place of life, surrounded by all aspects of the American media, it is like a fight between the two Maos, the Western media only allows the two Maos to complain, and the Big Maos are not allowed to open the microphone, and it was the same at that time——

Don't shout "Don't rush to buy", you must shout "Hurry up, hurry up! It will rise to 5000 yuan a ton soon"!
The purchase will only take three or four days, so there is no time for investigation and thinking. The shorter the time, the greater the advantage of information asymmetry. With the futures prices skyrocketing, you may panic and sign the order in a daze.

But now, as soon as they got off the plane, Xu Xin and others had specially collected and sorted out the information. For example, three of the four major grain merchants were listed, and the annual report was disclosed, which was clear at a glance.

At this very moment, the phone of the Three-Body Fund was ringing non-stop.

"I'm Xu Xin, ah, I'm President Ning of COFCO."

Xu Xin answered the phone in a hurry, "Those materials? Of course I bought them from a consulting company. Our fund is trading soybean futures. Yes, most Wall Street hedge funds have a copy."

While talking, he cast his eyes on the sofa, and saw Lu Fei looking like he had nothing to do with himself, hanging high, with his legs crossed, dealing with a pile of documents and bills.

"Mr. Lu? Mr. Lu is not in the United States."

Xu Xin opened his eyes and said nonsense: "After I saw these materials, I was sent to them for reference. The data is absolutely reliable!"

There was only a click, and the hung up phone beeped.

"My God, I'm about to become a repeater."

Xu Xin couldn't count how many times he answered, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Sister Xin, the essence of human beings is actually a repeater."

Lu Fei pursed his lips, glanced ten lines at a glance, and glanced at the patents recently acquired by Logic, as well as the cooperation projects with universities, all of which cost tens of millions of dollars.

All the money spent in vain flowed into research and development.

"Stop making sarcastic remarks."

Xu Xin rolled his eyes: "But as for this step? We need to let Wall Street and ABCD grain merchants know that we are disrupting the situation, especially you..."

"Disruption?"

Lu Fei shrugged, "Foreigners only want to eat three or four million tons. They want an arm to keep us half alive. We're better off just stretching our heads over to die."

Xu Xin shook her head and sighed, "That's right, I don't know if you can fool me if you hug me."

As soon as the voice fell, the Nokia on the desktop buzzed.

Lu Fei glanced at the number, and the note was "Minister of Commerce". He didn't dare to answer the call in a hurry, and just said:
"Great job done by your fund!"

"Minister, what's the matter?"

Lu Fei pretended to be innocent with a confused tone.

"Stop pretending to be confused with me."

The Minister of Commerce sternly said: "This will delay the war years and shake the morale of the army. It will be decapitated, but if you have done a good job in collecting intelligence, your merits and demerits will be balanced."

"..."

The corner of Lu Fei's mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a while.

"The leader wants to call you personally."

After the Minister of Commerce finished speaking, his voice immediately changed into a gentle tone, like a spring breeze.

"Little Lu, the information you sent was very timely."

"It's good that you're not angry."

"Why are you angry? You have done a good thing. Indeed, what you said at the meeting has slowly come true. The water in it is very deep."

"Leader, I'm afraid of the worst outcome."

Lu Fei unreservedly said that this time the entire procurement group was wiped out, and international grain merchants would aggressively invade the processing industry, controlling procurement channels and pricing power.

Then imported soybeans dominated the market, and the production of domestic soybeans was greatly reduced, eventually monopolizing the soybean and soybean meal markets.

On the other end of the phone, there was silence for a while before speaking again:
"Tell me, what do you think?"

"Just a little half-baked suggestion."

Lu Fei confessed and divided the purchasing group into two times. This time, the purchasing volume was reduced to about half, buying three to four million tons, and waiting for the price of the futures market to correct, and then killing another one to even out the cost of this high level.

"Of course, it's purely voluntary. The enterprise operates independently."

Xu Xin held her breath, looked at him and chatted humbly for a while, and when she put down the phone, she finally couldn't hold it anymore:
"how is it going?"

"It's up to them to try their best."

Lu Fei wiped his face.

Xu Xin asked in surprise: "What should we do now? If we really persuade them, will we still do short positions?"

"do it!"

Lu Fei raised his lips: "If you can't make an empty order of 800 million tons, it's not a problem to make a 300 million tons."

.........

The next day, March 2.

In the well-planned media war, even if Huaxia squeezed companies to make up for the shortcomings of information, they still couldn't get rid of the panic and increased their procurement efforts.

But the quantity, no more, no less, exactly 200 million tons.

Soybeans on the Chicago Board of Trade rose to 1010 cents from 1025 cents.

On February 2, soybean futures rose another 26 cents.

But the purchasing group only won 150 million tons.

It's Friday, February 2th.

On the last day before the market closed, and also the last day when the purchasing group officially announced the purchase, soybean futures prices reached a new high in the past six years on the Chicago Board of Trade.

It is equivalent to RMB, 4300 RMB per ton.

Huaxia Oil Extractors panicked and bought another 50 tons of soybean forward contracts for three full days, buying a total of 400 million tons.

"bravo! Goldman Sachs' first big order of the new year."

Thinking of the benefits brought by short selling, Paulson raised his mouth, went to the wine cabinet, took out whiskey, and poured two glasses.

"cheers!"

"cheers."

David Solomon was overjoyed and squeezed out a smile.

"David, what's the matter with you? Today is a day worth celebrating."

Paulson grinned, "The Huaxia delegation is so cute and stupid that they don't even do any hedging. It's better to put the money in our pockets to save trouble, haha!"

"But it's only 400 million tons, only 400 million tons!"

David Solomon had a gloomy face, "It shouldn't be like this, they should purchase more, 500 million tons, 600 million tons, or even seven or eight million tons."

"400 million tons has exceeded expectations. You must know that internal sources say that Huaxia only purchases 300 million tons."

"No! Huaxia plans to purchase more than 700 million tons this time!"

"Where did you get the news? Is it accurate?"

"Very prepared! Wilmar Group, Kerry's partner, founded the 'Golden Dragon Fish' in China. The latest information it has found is the amount of this purchase."

"But now, why has it become 400 million tons?"

"I don't know, but I'm sure, someone must have messed up! We lost so much money!"

"But no matter whether it is 700 million tons or 400 million tons, it is enough to make Chinese soybean oil traders bleed."

Paulson took a sip of wine: "This is the result that the four major ABCD grain merchants want."

"But if it's 700 million tons, wouldn't it be better."

David Solomon smacked his lips: "We can earn more, and we can also provide funds to our old customers. Huaxia Soybean Enterprises, which are suffering huge losses, cannot refuse new funds and will definitely accept their shares."

"Compared with this, I am more concerned about how the sniper Huaxia land is doing?" Paulson was full of expectations.

"The short-selling plan may be in vain. According to the news from the old Bullock, Huaxia Lu will not go long, and will rebuild its short position."

David Solomon looked embarrassed. After all, he was the one who suggested shorting Lu Fei on a whim, but unexpectedly, Lu Fei seemed to have predicted his prediction.

"What?!"

Paulson's smile froze, "How did Huaxia Lu know that it would fall! Doesn't he know futures!"

...............

The Huaxia Soybean Purchasing Group had just left, and less than a week after sweeping 400 million tons of goods, before the futures delivery date, the serial tricks came.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture suddenly turned around and clarified that the sharp reduction in soybean production was fake news. On the contrary, soybean production has hit a new record, and there is great potential for increasing production this year.

Immediately afterwards, soybean inventories were raised, which was so negative that Wall Street hedge funds backhandedly shorted soybean futures.

In just one day, the price of soybeans in the international market fell from 4300 yuan per ton to below the 4200 yuan mark.

Throughout the Chicago Board of Trade, panic spread rapidly, as if there was already a harbinger of an avalanche.

When the news spread to China, the grain and oil industry circle was instantly shaken.

"Surrendered! My God, Mr. Lu really hit the mark."

Tian Renli secretly rejoiced that he had listened to Master Lu's words, and others who listened to his persuasion, either did hedging, or quit the purchasing group, expressed their thanks on the phone one by one.

"Mr. Tian, ​​thank you, thank you so much."

The boss spoke with a Henan accent: "Thanks to you, otherwise it would be over, it would be over! You saved the life of Henan Grain and Oil!"

"Don't thank me for this matter, but thank Mr. Lu if you want to thank him. Hedging is his skill, and I am a sounding board."

Tian Renli is not greedy for credit, and the great credit goes to Lu Fei without a doubt, no matter how many thank you calls, it's the same.

Just when they talked about Lu Fei, the bosses felt complicated.

For example, the grain and oil company in Guancheng felt ashamed and annoyed.

"President Lu! I regret that I refuted him at the meeting. If I had listened to him and quit the purchasing group earlier, this incident would not have happened."

Another example is COFCO, which is rejoicing in frustration.

It is not only a state-owned enterprise, but also a central enterprise. It is impossible to withdraw from the procurement group. It even has procurement indicators and tasks, but thank God, because of Master Lu, the original procurement volume has been reduced by half.

Although the price is high, the other half can wait until it falls back to two or three thousand, and the neutralization will be evened out.

If you have the rest of your life after a catastrophe, you will naturally suffer a catastrophe of life and death.

"Mr. Tian, ​​give me a hand! I really can't afford it, or else I'll have to break the contract, and I won't even pay for the deposit..."

"Brother, I'm ready to be dismissed, but Dalian's grain and oil can't be dumped, you have to think of a way, think of a way!"

"..."

There are 14 companies, large and small.

They all failed to listen to Master Lu's advice twice, studded high-priced soybeans, and were forced to be quilted on the top of the mountain, unable to get down.

One step away from filing for bankruptcy.

Tian Renli had no choice but to give one answer——

Don't look for me, go and invite Master Lu!
