Her analysis basis is also very unique. She does not look for answers from politicians' topics, nor does she pay attention to the opinions of major countries, the opinions of the United Nations, etc. The most important point is to capture the characteristics of Americans.
Willing to suffer losses.
The old red empire of the Soviet Union is already in decline. Gorbachev, who has a map of Europe tattooed on his bald head, is nothing but a tragic figure with high ambitions and low ambitions. He is unable to lead the Soviet Union into a new era.
As the only superpower with the strongest comprehensive national strength in the world, the Americans are not willing to suffer losses. When did they send troops to maintain peace in the poorest African countries? Wherever the Americans appear, there must be places where there are disputes of interests.
As a major oil-producing country with extremely rich oil reserves, Iraq has naturally been a coveted target of the Americans. This incident is just an excuse for them to intervene in Middle East affairs.
In Ye Kai's memory, this Gulf War lasted for about forty days. According to later statistics, the Americans spent about more than 60 billion U.S. dollars on military expenditures, and the daily expenditure was almost 1.5 billion U.S. dollars.
This is not a war, but a waste of money!
The Americans can afford to fight but cannot afford to delay, so Zhong Liyu's analysis is very reasonable.
"The military's 300 million, equivalent to 60 million U.S. dollars, is in the Gulf account. It can be used for two months, and then the money needs to be returned." Ye Kai said to Zhong Liyu, "This time, I want to buy short.
.”
"Buy short?!" Zhong Liyu was a little surprised after hearing this, but there was not much ridicule in his eyes. Instead, he asked in shock, "Why do you think that once the war starts, the oil price will fall?!"
"I refuse to answer this. Just do as you do. If anything happens, I will be responsible for it. It will not cause any harm to you or the Zhongli family." Ye Kai avoided talking about this issue.
To be honest, this issue is not easy to discuss.
Ye Kai couldn't tell Zhong Liyu that he suddenly gained all the experience in the next few decades and had an epiphany?!
"Sixty million dollars to buy oil when the price drops. What a big deal!" Zhong Liyu knew that Ye Kai was unwilling to disclose the inside story, but Ye Kai's big deal still made her feel a little frightened.
"Actually, as long as you look at the right direction, some short-term operations are still very good." Ye Kai replied.
The atmosphere in the restaurant is good, there are not too many people, not too few people, it is stylish and not noisy, which is the style of a Western restaurant. Everyone sitting here feels a bit pretentious.
Zhong Liyu felt a little more relaxed, eating slowly and occasionally taking a sip of red wine.
Ye Kai ordered steak, salmon sashimi, etc., but when he ate, the seasonings and other ingredients were always mixed up, completely disorganized.
"Sashimi" is a traditional Japanese food and the "lightest" dish in Japanese cuisine. It is very popular among Japanese people.
But in fact, in the interior of Japan, before the invention of refrigerators in the early 20th century, few people ate this kind of food. It was only more popular along the coast.
Nowadays, with the improvement of preservation and transportation technology, more and more people are eating "sashimi".
Ye Kai smeared mustard, soy sauce and other things on it, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
"Puch..." Zhong Liyu couldn't help laughing when he saw it, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, where do you work now?"
"Work? I don't have a job. I'm in school." Ye Kai replied, chewing fish meat in his mouth, and his voice was naturally a little unclear.
"Go to school? Where?" Zhong Liyu thought to herself. Although Ye Kai looks very young, he is very experienced and well-organized. He is probably similar to himself. He is also getting a master's degree or a doctoral degree.
"Beijing No. 5 Middle School, senior year." Ye Kai replied.
"What?! Senior year?! Are you a senior in high school?!" After hearing this, Zhong Liyu almost threw away the wine glass swinging in her hand. She stared and asked, "How could you be a senior in high school?! You
How many levels have you left?!"
"Sister, I am seventeen years old this year. Isn't it normal to be in the third year of high school?" Ye Kai asked with a smile.
"Seventeen years old..." Zhong Liyu was immediately confused.
Originally, she thought that Ye Kai was just an undergraduate at most, or maybe a master's degree student. Because of his free and decisive style and amazing handwriting, Zhong Liyu thought that he should be about the same age as herself.
But I didn’t expect that he was actually a seventeen-year-old boy!
She is a full six years younger than her! How can this make Zhongli Yuqing embarrassed?
Zhong Liyu covered her face with her hands and didn't speak for a long time. She never thought that she would lose her virginity to a seventeen-year-old boy like you.
This kind of thing is really embarrassing!
Zhong Liyu's mind was very confused. If Ye Kai was about the same age as her, even though the two met because of a misunderstanding, it was not impossible for them to achieve success. But now it seems that there are many obstacles between them, and it will be difficult.
Overstepped.
The six-year gap would not be a problem if it were reversed, but the current situation was a huge blow to Zhong Liyu. If her guess was correct, Ye Kai must be the grandson of the old man.
How could someone with such a family background not have any plans for a political marriage?
Even if Ye Kai does not need a political marriage, the Ye family will never accept a woman who is six years older than their own son. As their daughter-in-law, this is simply a joke.
However, things have reached this point, does Zhong Liyu have any other choice?
Ye Kai saw that Zhong Liyu's expression was so ugly, but he also understood what was going on in her heart. He was also a little scratching his head about this matter, but he could not avoid it after all.
"Sister Yu, due to various reasons, I cannot give you a formal title, but I am not an irresponsible person." Ye Kai stretched out his hand, held Zhong Liyu's hand, and said very sincerely, "
Apart from anything else, I will put all the profits from this futures operation in your name. As for the relationship between us, we can only take one step at a time and see what happens."
After listening to Ye Kai's words, Zhong Liyu's depressed mood finally improved a little.
She looked at Ye Kai and found that he was looking at her, his eyes full of tenderness.
"Could it be that this is the love that belongs to me?" Zhong Liyu was thinking very hard, but she couldn't think of any other way to go.
If Ye Kai really relies on himself so much, then even if she can't be his wife, the next best thing is to be his financial spokesperson, which seems to be an option worth considering.
