Chapter 500

……

……

In the midsummer of August, the weather in California belongs to Mediterranean climate, with warm sun and gentle wind.

In Williams manor, Caesar and Diana respectively ride a black and a white noble pony for a long walk on the farm. Caesar's black pony is a Shetland pony from England; Diana's white pony is from China and belongs to Debao pony. At present, the most famous ponies in the world are Shetland ponies in England and Debao ponies in China. Because the number of ponies is rare, it is particularly precious. It can be said that ponies are the treasure of horses. If they move, they are worth hundreds of thousands. Now they have become the symbol of nobility!

The height of these two ponies is below 90cm. Caesar and Diana are just right on it. For the sake of safety, a servant was arranged to pull the horse rope in case of accident.

Henry stood in front with his company's Williams camera to take pictures of Caesar and Diana, while Ulysses watched.

Little Caesar and little Diana are both wearing riding clothes and helmets, which are both lovely and heroic.

"Smile, pose!"

Henry yelled to them, the two children are now more than one year old, can speak, and also understand Henry's words, immediately put out a scissors hand gesture.

With the improvement of aesthetic level and the progress of ideas, scissors hand has made people feel aesthetic fatigue and a little boring. But the way Caesar and Diana put on makes Henry feel so cute!

After taking some pictures, Henry stepped forward, gave each of them a kiss on the face, and then asked, "do you like your pony?"

"Yes!" Caesar and Diana answered in unison.

"Since you like it, give your horses a name."

"Good

The two children began to discuss the name of their pony.

At this time, the mobile phone rings. When Henry looks at the number, it's Karina.

"Honey, what can I do for you?"

"Well..." said kailinna, "our capital has been fully cashed out from the Japanese stock market. According to the statistics of Weifeng capital, we have made nearly $200 billion in total! Now, I've arranged for people to prepare to speculate in crude oil futures! Honey, how much money do you think we need to put in? "

Henry thought for a moment and said, "invest 100 billion dollars and leverage 100 times!"

After Henry finished speaking, there was no voice of kailinna in his mobile phone for a long time. It seemed that he was shocked!

After a while, she took a deep breath and asked, "are you sure it's 100 times leverage? You know, in this way, it is equivalent to us using 100000 US dollars to speculate in crude oil futures, which is a huge gamble! "

"Yes, I know!" Henry knows all about the future of oil.

At the beginning of 2003, the international crude oil price will exceed 30 US dollars per barrel, and then, there will be no turning back.

In September 2004, affected by the Iraq war, the international crude oil price broke through 40 US dollars per barrel again, then continued to rise, and broke through 50 US dollars for the first time. Then it broke $60 a barrel and accelerated.

In August 2005, Mexico was hit by Hurricane Katrina, and the international crude oil price exceeded $70 per barrel for the first time.

On September 12, 2007, the international crude oil price broke through 80 US dollars per barrel for the first time, and then continued to accelerate.

On October 18, 2007, the international crude oil price broke through 90 US dollars per barrel for the first time and reached 100 US dollars per barrel at the end of the year!

In 2008, the international crude oil price soared sharply. On July 14, the crude oil futures price on the New York Mercantile Exchange reached a record high of 147.27 US dollars per barrel.

After a pause, Henry continued: "the delivery time of our crude oil futures contract is set at August 31, 2005!"

After that, a smile appeared in the corner of Henry's mouth“ Hurricane Katrina is a natural and man-made disaster. No one thought it would come so fast! The hurricane swept across Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. It was a devastating destruction, causing at least 75 billion US dollars of economic losses. It became the most destructive hurricane in the history of the United States, with no less than 1836 people killed.

At this time, more than a third of the oil fields near the Gulf of Mexico were shut down. Seven refineries and an important U.S. crude oil export facility also had to be suspended. Crude oil prices on the New York Mercantile Exchange surged $4.67 a barrel to $70.8 when it opened on August 29! Until September 2, the International Energy Agency announced that all 26 member states agreed to put 2 million barrels of strategic reserves of crude oil on the market every day for 30 days to help solve the market tension caused by Hurricane Katrina. New York market crude oil futures prices fell sharply on the same day.

As a result, the delivery time of crude oil futures contract is stuck at the time point of August 31, which naturally can earn the most!!!

And the reason why he didn't continue to speculate was that Henry was thoughtful. US $100 billion is already a huge amount of data, and then with 100 times leverage, the international crude oil price will fluctuate greatly. It is not hard to imagine that by August 31, 2005, the international crude oil price will be much higher than that of previous generations, or it may break through $100 a barrel! And after making a big profit, it's almost time to launch an electric car. At that time, the international crude oil price may plummet! So, after making another profit, there is no need to take any more risks!

"All right, whatever you say!" Kalina said, "Oh, by the way, there's another thing. Soros is going to ask me if I want to join hands to attack Asian countries. I don't think it's right, so I directly refused!

We are different from Soros. He is a pure financial capitalist, but we have many real companies and products. I believe that Asia will be a huge market in the future. If we launch a financial war against it blatantly, it is bound to make the local countries and people hate us. I am afraid that our products will not be sold in the future! "

"You did the right thing!" Henry nodded and said, "not to mention the success of launching the financial war, even if it is successful, it is also a loss of sesame and watermelon! This time against Japan, I have no choice but to do it, who let them be our enemies! We will not show mercy to our enemies

Come on, hurt each other!

Japan's Mitsui and Mitsubishi consortia are now suffering, losing hundreds of billions of dollars, and also implicating the whole of Japan, resulting in a sharp drop in the international competitiveness of Japanese products and a relatively long-term negative impact. Now Japan is in a mess. The number of unemployed people in China is as high as millions. The economy is in a downturn. Many people can't afford to eat. They all depend on the Japanese government for relief. A year ago, Japan's GDP could reach more than US $300 billion, ranking second in the world. However, since the beginning of this year, Japan's GDP has plummeted sharply. I'm afraid that for several years, Japan will not be in the top three!!!
