Chapter 9: Gamblers
Su Di finally slept last night, and all his curiosity seemed to be answered. Before going to bed, he pulled out the storage device. At around six o'clock in the morning, the two of them woke up and found that even though they pulled out the storage device, the countdown was still there.
"I have deeply modified the notebook and also deeply studied the information in the notebook. Now it is almost possible to interact independently from the storage." Before the two questions could be asked, a voice came from the screen.
"It seems that the highest human intelligence is not as good as this small storage. It would be great if human artificial intelligence could have one ten thousandth of this." Su Di sighed.
"Let's go, let's go find the takeaway Jin Ye!"
The two of you soon arrived at Beijing South Railway Station. At this time, there was no need for paper tickets or ID cards. It was all done with one face. There was no need to line up to pack luggage and wait for the security check. They only had to pass through a closed corridor, and security checks for people and objects had been completed. High-speed rail
The speed has reached 600 kilometers per hour, and there is no need to stop in the middle. That is, it only takes 4 hours from Beijing to Shenzhen. This is not a direct train. There are passengers getting on and off at every station along the way from Beijing to Shenzhen.
Each high-speed rail carriage is an autonomous driving unit that can be independent and connected to other carriages. At each station, the corresponding carriage will separate and enter the station independently, while other carriages pass at high speed, and then join the carriages that have already departed in the same direction.
The carriages are connected, thus realizing non-stop high-speed rail trains.
We arrived in Shenzhen North at 1:40 in the afternoon. It was also a time when the delivery boy was relatively free.
Jin Shijie, with a cigarette in his mouth, was looking at the foreign exchange time-sharing line, half lying on the battery car.
"Wrong translation again, half of this was in vain." Jin Shijie turned from a long position to a short position, never expecting the RMB to rise sharply.
He took a deep breath, almost burning the white sand smoke that reached the filter, and then threw it directly on the ground, while keeping his eyes fixed on the screen. Who would have thought in his current situation that he actually had a master's degree in finance from the University of London and joined CITIC Securities after returning to China.
In the investment banking department, my annual salary was nearly one million 10 years ago. After working for three years, I bought a car and a house in Shenzhen, married a wife and had children, and was envied by everyone.
Human desires are always endless. As a proud man who came from the countryside of Hunan, he was mercilessly hit by reality time and time again. Because of his limited resources and connections, coupled with his self-righteousness and unwillingness to please, he could only watch those who were not as qualified as himself.
My colleagues are getting promoted one by one. Since I can't satisfy my desire for promotion, I might as well find another way - to be richer than everyone around me.
By chance, he firmly believed that high-leverage foreign exchange speculation would allow him to achieve rapid wealth growth as soon as possible. High-leverage investment can make a person crazy. It has the inherent magic power to attract madmen and can make a destitute person achieve financial freedom in an instant.
It can also make the very rich go bankrupt in an instant. And the root cause of this is greed. The original purpose of the foreign exchange market is to discover value and hedge risks, but it can always attract groups of greedy lunatics, increase leverage, leverage, until they lose everything, or even their families are destroyed!. Of course, futures
There is nothing wrong with the tools themselves, the fault lies with the people. This is also the unique character of carbon-based people.
Jin Shijie also had the same craziness. At the beginning of the period, he only used part of his salary to operate carefully. Gradually he made some money, and his confidence began to expand. He began to invest all his salary and credit funds, dreaming of getting rich overnight.
There will be significant fluctuations in the Asian foreign exchange market in 2029. First of all, the RMB has appreciated by nearly 5% within half a year without any reason. This is a profit of 5 times for a foreign exchange investment with nearly 100 times leverage. On the contrary, if you short the RMB, I believe that the margin has been completely lost.
Market pundits began to shout that they were bullish on the RMB and it would rise by another 20%. The bullish sentiment became more and more aggressive. Jin Shijie was also infected and went long on the RMB. At first, it was okay. The RMB rose by 2% within a week, and the entire Asian currency tightened.
Follow him.
His emotions became increasingly uncontrollable, and Jin Shijie also lost his mind. In his opinion, this might be the only chance to get rich in his life, so he mortgaged his real estate and continued to do long. It can be said that he took all his belongings and nearly 2 million in consumer loans.
Add positions to be long the RMB.
"Blow the shorts!" The bulls have entered the foreign exchange market with almost crazy momentum. Who knows that this is actually a conspiracy. The investment giants have dominated this foreign exchange market trap. Then the number of short orders gradually increased, and people no longer care about the number of short orders, because
It was not worth the long buying. When the short chips were sufficient, there was a huge sell-off in the spot market and the Hong Kong dollar was converted back to the U.S. dollar. The RMB depreciated sharply against the U.S. dollar in the spot market. In the futures market, the RMB plummeted within a month.
12%.
Jin Shijie went from being a middle-class person to a prisoner within a month. Because as a securities practitioner, he illegally speculated in foreign exchange by borrowing other people's accounts for a large amount, his qualifications were revoked and banned for life. At the same time, because the debt could not be returned, the property was enforced
, his wife Ge Juan could not accept such an irrational gambler, so she divorced him with her children, and was unable to repay about 4 million in debt, and he eventually became a prisoner.
He was just released from prison in April this year, but because of his criminal record, no formal company dared to hire him. He had to borrow the identity of his cousin from his hometown and finally found a job as a delivery boy. Not long after he started working, his cousin opened a foreign exchange account, or
Unable to change his evil intentions, or trying to get up wherever he fell, Jin Shijie started speculating in foreign exchange again.
Following the information, Yan Xun and the others came to the vicinity of Gemdale Center in Futian District.
"This is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Let's call Mr. Jin first."
Jin Shijie at the other end was staring at the plate. When he saw that it was an unknown caller from Beijing, he simply hung up the call without even ringing twice. But a moment later, he was preparing to find an opportunity to make a mistake, so he didn't bother to answer the phone and refused again.
"I have been rejected twice in a row. It seems that Mr. Jin is a little busy. I should not be busy if I order takeout at this time." Su Di said.
"I sent him a message and told him if he didn't answer the phone, I would file a complaint against him. He would definitely call back."
Jin Shijie still couldn't find a good opportunity to make a comeback, and suddenly a text message popped up: Answer the phone or call back, or I will file a complaint against you.
"Damn it, where is the hard-to-serve boss? Why are you complaining to me? Once you make a complaint, the 500 yuan zero-complaint award is gone. It's the end of the month and you can't be complained." Shijie thought to himself. He immediately called back.
past.
"Hello, I'm the delivery guy. I don't know what went wrong. Did it offend you?"
"Jin Shijie?"
"Well, I am, you are?"
"My name is Su Di. Where are you now? I have something very important to see you. It's not convenient to call you over the phone. Can you give me your location?"
"What important things can't be discussed over the phone? If you are here to collect debt, state it first, I am penniless..."
"No, you misunderstood, I am not a debt collector. There is indeed something very important, but we can't say it over the phone. Please tell me where you are and we will go find you." Su Di interrupted Shijie and raised his voice.
"I'm in the bottom store on the east side of Gemdale Center, waiting to take orders. If you need anything, come over quickly. If there's an order, I won't wait for you."
Yan Xun and the others are just on the north side of the Gemdale Center, a few steps away from each other.
"Then don't hang up the phone. We're just a few steps to the north. Which store are you specifically in front of?"
“Braised chicken rice bowl.”
While talking, the two of them came to Jin Shijie.
I saw a middle-aged man with burnt skin, wearing a certain food delivery uniform, holding a cigarette in his left hand, and he was no longer lying down but sitting on a battery car.
"You two have something important to ask me for?"
"Hello, I am Su Di and this is Li Yanxuan." Su Di introduced himself and Yanxuan.
But Jin Shijie had no intention of getting up and shaking hands.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. Don't delay me from taking the order."
"That's it." Su Di didn't say much, but showed Jin Shijie his cell phone. There was a picture of the Riyue Mountain Tao Wen on the phone.
Jin Shijie was startled at first, then pretended to be calm and said, "What is this?"
"Sun Moon Mountain Pottery Inscriptions, if you are really Jin Shijie, you will not be unfamiliar with this pattern." Su Di asked rhetorically.
"I'm very familiar with the symbols, but I don't know if you two have anything to do with me. Let's talk about it first."
Su Di and Yan Xuan briefly explained the whole story.
Jin Shijie smiled bitterly and said: "Hey, just harvest as long as you want. You see, I might as well be harvested like this. Save me the trouble of committing suicide."
"For nothing else, think about your descendants."
"Don't mention them, abandon me, why should I think about them?" Maybe he touched Jin Shijie's sore spot, so he replied even more dismissively.
"Well, this is the storage left by the shepherds to us. You can go back and take a look before deciding whether to go with us. Remember, this gadget can automatically connect to devices, including your mobile phone, but it must be used when there is no network connection.
Under the conditions. We will be waiting for your reply, and we hope you can reply to us tonight." After handing the storage to Jin Shijie, Su Di and Yan Xun found a cafe to wait for Shijie's reply.
Jin Shijie seemed to be moved. He called it a day and returned to the rented basement. He disconnected the Internet as instructed by Su Di. The storage was automatically connected to his mobile phone, and the holographic image was also played through the camera. He lit a cigarette, which was small.
The space was filled with tar and smoke. The smoke made the holographic image even more terrifying and mysterious. But Jin Shijie shook his head and giggled while watching.
A pack of cigarettes was finished in a while. He took out another pack from the box of cigarettes, opened it and continued to refill it. By the time Jin Shijie understood almost everything, it was already past 9 pm, and Yi Xun and the others did not disturb him during this period.
