Age of Dreams

Kompass was speechless.

At the end of July, after Xiao Qi visited the United States, Wade of Citibank once said Xiao Qi's words at a party.

At that time, people regarded it as a joke, because it is impossible for oil prices to plummet so sharply, especially in today's age of inflation, it is impossible!

However, nearly two months have passed, but in fact, they hit everyone's cheeks with an iron fist, one after another.

Since the price of oil fell below the psychological threshold of US$60 in early September, the price of oil has been steadily falling in the last ten days. Although the decline is not large, it can fall by more than ten cents or tens of cents every day. The occasional rebound has never reached more than one dollar, which really broke the hearts of the oil futures practitioners in the United States.

Today, the price of oil is only 54 US dollars, which can be said to be an inch away from the lowest psychological bottom line of all oil futures traders.

In recent years, everyone has a consensus that if the price of oil futures can be above 70, then it means that the economy is barely operating; if it is between 60 and 70, then it is worthy of vigilance, and the economy is likely to fall into weakness; if If you drop 60 in one breath, the economy will undoubtedly enter a stagnant discharge; if you go further down and break 50, the global financial crisis is almost coming!

Now the oil price is 54. Everyone is so nervous. It is really going to the 30 dollars that Xiao Qi said. I don't know how many people will be unlucky, and how much the global economy will suffer.

"Haha, Mr. Xiao said this seriously." Compass was chewing beef in his mouth, and his mind turned quickly: "30 US dollars is a price that OPEC and the United States will not allow. In fact, we think that by the end of the year, As major companies change their oil consumption expectations for next year, it should bring about an increase in oil prices."

Xiao Qi smiled faintly before eating.

His refusal to accept the move, on the contrary, made the series of counterattacks that Kompass had set out of nowhere, and felt a little helpless.

Even Xiao Qi's sense of smell is very sensitive. Kompass is also sure that this teenager's foundation in oil futures is definitely not as good as his own.

If this kind of discussion were to be carried out, he would be confident that Xiao Qi could be tricked into the circle, and eventually a series of goals would be achieved.

such a pity.

Xiao Qi was not fooled at all, which could not help making Kompass even more jealous of Xiao Qi.

After five full minutes, Kompass was re-planning his plan. But he still didn't dare to speak in advance.

Seeing his dignified expression, Xiao Qi took a sip of the drink and turned the topic to another aspect, "By the way, Mr. Compass is here this time to terminate the gambling agreement early?"

"Oh. Yes." Compass reacted very quickly, and said slightly with his jaw: "Mr. Xiao, we at Merrill Lynch feel that we have lost this bet. We are willing to settle with you in advance. Congratulations on your winning this time. Victory against the bet."

When saying this. Compass's face was painful.

Dan Ze of the Investment Management Department, because of this incident, went home early to eat on his own.

Under the sad feeling of the rabbit dead and the fox, Compass felt for the first time that Merrill Lynch was still smashed by others in his best place. It seems that there are so many smart people in the world.

"It's no problem to settle in advance." Xiao Qi asked vaguely while eating lamb chops, "But what conditions are you going to make in advance. What price will you settle in advance?"

"The wireless communications department is naturally yours. As for the amount of gambling, when you sign the agreement, you will settle the settlement according to the average price of the day. On this point, we are very disciplined. Please don't worry, Mr. Xiao." Paz thought Xiao Qi was worried that they were playing tricks in this regard. It also officially demonstrates the excellent reputation of a major international investment bank in this regard.

"The average price of the day?" Xiao Qi laughed blankly: "I know that the price of oil will continue to fall. There are still three months before the end of the year. Why don't I make more money, so I have to settle it eagerly now?"

Compass, hailed as the next deputy general manager and director candidate. Hearing this, he took a breath: "Mr. Xiao means..."

Looking at him, Xiao Qi said flatly: "I said 25 US dollars, you definitely don't want to, so just use the conservative 30 US dollars to calculate, and the wireless communication department belongs to me."

"impossible!!"

Compass abruptly stood up, and all the knives and forks he brought with him fell to the ground.

The four foreign men next to him were watching this side all the time. They were also very nervous when they saw it. They knew that there was a problem with the negotiation, but this was not a gang fight, so they couldn't come to help.

It was after 12 o'clock at noon, and there were so many people who came to eat. Suddenly, I saw a gringe blushing and shouting "Impossible". Everyone looked at Compass suddenly.

In the western restaurant, there is generally very little noise, and with the roar of Kompass, the surrounding atmosphere is suddenly quiet.

Being watched by so many people, if it were normal, Kompass would definitely bow and apologize in a gentleman manner, but now he only has anger and can't see anything else.

An old foreign man in his fifties, with a "manager" nameplate hanging on his chest, came up and asked in a low voice: "Sir, do you need help?"

"Oh, no need, sorry!" Kompass took a deep breath and squeezed out a smile.

"Then let me change a set of tableware for you." The manager smiled and turned to leave.

What he wanted to determine was whether the two were going to be beaten up. Since it was just a normal quarrel, it would not affect the normal operation of the restaurant.

At the girl's table on the other side, the boys and children also noticed the anger of Kompass. Yan Shanchong and Guan You naturally took advantage of revealing themselves, and by the way, they attacked Xiao Qi again.

But the ethereal and tender girl is proud in her heart: Can force foreigners to be like this~www.readwn.com~ Xiao Qi is indeed a genius with everyone's demeanor!

Sitting down again, Kompass's face has become calm.

It's not that he couldn't help but because he had never met such a Chinese.

On weekdays, companies from Huaguo seek Merrill Lynch, and their diligent attitude makes Kompass’s heart a little look down on the Chinese people. Suddenly, a tough and arrogant person like Xiao Qi came to him. Not adapting.

But after all, he was an extraordinary person. After holding back his anger, he showed an apologetic expression to Xiao Qi: "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I was too impulsive."

"It's okay, losers have the right to vent their emotions."

Xiao Qi's words almost made Compass run away again. He clenched his fists and said to himself again and again in his heart: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, he just wants to see you so angry that you lose your mind, Qian Don’t be fooled!” (To be continued.
