You must know that the financial industry is very professional. Although sufficient funds are also a capital, if the operation is not good, no amount of money will be enough for them to compensate.
If you are unlucky when trading stock futures, tens of billions of funds will evaporate in an instant.
Zhang Manlin actually has no doubts about Jiang Cheng's purpose, because he is such a willful person.
Anyway, Jiang Cheng has always been unhappy with those in the financial industry, so it's normal for him to want to teach them a lesson.
What really surprised her was why Jiang Cheng was so confident that he could definitely make money.
With Jiang Cheng's IQ, there is no way he doesn't know how deep the financial industry is. It would be unwise to rashly do such a thing.
Jiang Cheng found that Zhang Manlin was still staring at him with confusion, so he could only helplessly continue to explain.
Well, I am actually planning to enter the futures field to play, because I am 100% sure that I will be able to make money in futures.
That's why I suddenly thought of playing a game, making money while teasing those futures traders.
Jiang Cheng's confidence in controlling the futures market actually stems from the phone call he just hung up.
He just remembered about platinum after being reminded by Xiao Peng on the phone.
Massive amounts of platinum will soon be shipped back to Earth, which will definitely have a huge impact on the precious metals trading market.
By the time the platinum is shipped to the earth, the price of platinum will have dropped by how much it will fall.
This time the rocket transported 500 tons of platinum ingots. It wasn't that Jiang Cheng didn't want to transport more, but that the rocket's carrying capacity had reached its limit.
If the Kun I1 rocket flies back and forth between the Earth and Mars, it can only carry up to 500 tons of cargo.
If the rocket's carrying capacity exceeds this range, the nuclear fusion fuel on the rocket may not be enough.
Don't look at the figure of 500 tons, which is nothing in the industrial era. The annual output of those steel industries is "380", which is hundreds of millions of tons.
But if the figure of five hundred tons is added to the front of platinum, it will be a very scary number.
The reserves of platinum on the earth are very low, and the annual production is only a little.
It is precisely because platinum is so rare that its price is higher than the annual platinum production on earth, which is about 85 tons.
The 500 tons of finished platinum shipped back this time have exceeded six times the annual production on earth.
In other words, Jiang Cheng brought back six years of Earth's platinum production from Mars in one go.
With so much platinum flooding into the market at once, the price of platinum will drop a lot in an instant.
What's more, this is only the first batch, and the output on Mars will only become larger and larger in the future.
Although Jiang Cheng is not planning to sell these platinums, this news alone can have a great impact.
Jiang Cheng has not yet announced what he has done on Mars. Everyone only knows that after the Mars base is established, there will be five astronauts staying on Mars.
If Jiang Cheng said that those astronauts were helping him mine platinum on Mars, the precious metals trading market would be in turmoil in an instant.
In particular, the platinum futures market will definitely be messed up by him.
So when the platinum mines were first mined, Jiang Cheng was prepared to watch those good shows.
But now Jiang Cheng has changed his mind and is ready to tease those people while making money himself.
Jiang Cheng has 500 tons of platinum in hand, so he can control the price of platinum.
When he knew that the price of platinum was bound to fall, he knew that he could make a big deal about platinum futures this time.
Futures trading is a large part of the financial industry, and it is also the most risky financial transaction for Jiang Cheng.
In futures trading, you can lose billions in one second. This has happened more than once.
Futures are essentially different from spot goods. They are actually goods that are delivered over a period of time.
A financial market is derived from this kind of goods traded in the future.
Simply put, the futures market is a commodity price game. Everyone predicts the future price of a certain commodity, and then conducts long and short transactions based on the prediction.
If your prediction is correct in the end, you will be able to make a lot of money in the futures market, otherwise you will lose money to your grandma's house.
The futures market is actually an adventure for both parties. Everyone bets on whether the price of this commodity will rise or fall in the future.
If you think the price of this kind of goods will rise in the future, then you can go long in the futures market. If the price of this kind of goods rises in the future, you will make money, otherwise you will lose money.
If you think the price of this kind of goods will fall in the future, then you can go short in the futures market, which is the same as going long.
It's just that the two camps are different. Some people make money while others lose money.
To put it bluntly, the futures market is a huge casino, and futures trading is a zero-sum game. If someone makes money, someone will inevitably lose money.
Since Jiang Cheng can predict that the price of platinum will inevitably fall this time, he can go short in the platinum futures market.
Then when the rocket reaches the earth, he will be able to make a lot of money as soon as the price of platinum drops.
Of course, by the way, it can also make those who are long lose to the point where even their mothers don’t recognize them.
In fact, the futures trading market is far from simple, and there are many tricks for short-term operations.
It's just that Jiang Cheng is planning to do something long-term this time, and is planning to go short now until four months later.
Anyway, he doesn't have a capital problem. Even if the price of platinum rises temporarily, his position will not be closed due to insufficient funds.
As long as he has enough in his hands, those who fight against him will be dead.
Anyway, the price of platinum will definitely fall in four months. As long as he keeps shorting, he will be victorious.
Even if you temporarily lose money due to the increase in platinum prices, you will be able to make it back in one go.
Jiang Cheng said such confident words precisely because he had inexhaustible funds and the ability to control the price of platinum.
After Jiang Cheng told Zhang Manlin about platinum, the CEO finally dispelled his doubts.
She now truly believed that Jiang Cheng would be able to make money and make his opponents go bankrupt in an instant.
But as soon as Zhang Manlin cleared her doubts, she immediately became excited.
Being able to do things in the financial market has been her dream for a long time.
It goes without saying that she was expecting a futures transaction without losing this time.
Then you should be busy signing the documents first. I will take care of the trader matter right away. I will definitely find the best trader for you. This time we must make a good profit.
After Zhang Manlin finished speaking, she left Jiang Cheng's office directly, but she still did not forget her responsibilities. Even if she left, she still had to let Jiang Cheng finish his own affairs.
