Chapter 1207 Financial consumers, a life of pure giving of money (8000) Good night
After Wang Qinghui left, Cao Shujie had already started preparing things for the New Year in advance.
This year, Grandpa's physical condition was obviously not good, so Cao Shujie didn't bother anymore, let alone choose to go out to celebrate the New Year. He just prepared the necessary things for the New Year at home.
Mengmeng is also on winter vacation. During this time, she has been wearing the little genius children's phone watch bought for her to go out and run wild.
When she sees her friends, she shows it off and calls her father, mother or grandpa or grandma to show off to her friends how powerful she is.
Cao Shujie later learned about this from other people, but he didn't care.
After all, Mengmeng is still a child.
When a child comes up with something new, he or she needs to show it off to his friends.
Because of the cute show off, many children in Caojiazhuang went home to their parents to buy them children's phone watches.
In addition, knowing the benefits of this kind of children's phone watch and its low price, many parents in Caojiazhuang are indeed planning to buy one for their children.
However, because they didn't understand this new product, when they bought it for their children, they came to Cao Shujie to ask what they should buy.
Cao Shujie told them that for the sake of their children's future, they should never buy products with too many functions. Only buy products that can make phone calls. Other messy functions should not be developed for children at all.
When these ordinary people heard what Secretary Cao said, they were also confused. Finally, someone asked Cao Shujie: "Secretary Cao, why don't you help buy one for me, and I'll transfer it to you how much it costs."
"That's right, Secretary Cao can also buy some for my family, so I won't have to worry about it."
With this beginning, there were also some people who wanted to buy children's phone watches. After learning about this, they also came to ask Cao Shujie for help.
Cao Shujie made the last calculation and reported the number directly to Cao Fei. He told him that the children in the village could buy it at a preferential price. After figuring it out, he transferred the money to Cao Fei.
However, some parents insist on buying it for their children. In addition, the children are very instigating and they want something that can log in to WeChat, add friends, and play games. Parents want to chat or play games on WeChat and they will not give up their children.
It was so bad that I finally couldn’t resist my child’s persuasion and bought it.
As for the series of headaches caused by this, that is a story for later.
In the face of the upcoming Spring Festival, unlike previous years when everyone would have fun together when New Year goods were distributed, Caojiazhuang also organized their own collective celebration this year, which was indeed much richer than in previous years.
Seeing the whole village immersed in the festive atmosphere of the upcoming New Year, Cao Shujie was also happy for everyone.
Xuemeng Food Factory is also different from previous years.
This year, because something extremely bad happened in the purchasing department last month, the entire company was immersed in a tense atmosphere. This year's annual meeting was not organized, but Cao Shujie still asked Wang Zhifeng to find a place to organize a dinner for everyone.
And the funds planned to organize the annual meeting are evenly distributed to all employees of the company.
This is the second time Xuemeng Food Factory has done this.
In fact, being able to pay directly like this is definitely happier for the employees in the factory, and it also allows them to temporarily forget what happened last month.
They think that watching a show is just that. Even if they invite celebrities to come, they will just make the people in the town envious of the strength of their factory and the opportunity to get close to the celebrities, but it is far better than converting those expenses into money.
It's more affordable to send it to them.
Everyone even remembers the good things about the company.
In addition, the company has also been very generous this year. After soliciting opinions from the entire company, they also used the most suggestions to buy Xiaomi tablets for everyone.
Naturally, he went to Lei Jun for this transaction, not for any other reason, but mainly for the same performance, Lei Jun gave him a more favorable price.
For example, for a tablet computer that costs more than 3,000 yuan, Cao Shujie actually saved more than 1,000 yuan when he got it. This is not a small amount for the company's more than 3,000 employees.
In addition to such prizes, the company is also very generous in distributing New Year goods.
Throughout the period before the Spring Festival, Xuemeng Food Factory has always been the most enviable place in Pingyuan County for other factory employees.
And everyone can see that in recent years, the company's standards for issuing bonuses or gifts have become higher and higher year by year.
This is directly related to the company's higher profits year after year.
At this moment, everyone is speculating about the company's revenue last year and what the company's profits were.
They are all looking forward to the company-wide employee meeting at work after the Spring Festival. Are they wondering whether the boss will announce this year's salary increase?
This is what everyone in the company looks forward to.
There are also people who perform better and want to see if they are on this promotion list.
However, when the employees of Xuemeng Food Factory celebrated another bumper harvest, the external environment was not optimistic, and it was even more difficult than in the first month of the year.
Especially as the Spring Festival approaches, the stock market has taught investors a good lesson.
Since the market index rose to the highest point of 3588 points at the end of last month, everyone was immersed in the festive atmosphere of "New Year's red envelopes". Who knew that the stock market would take a sharp turn at this time, closing with a negative line that day, with an amplitude close to
Three points, but this was the beginning. In just 9 trading days, the market fell to a low of 3062 points, a drop of 500 points.
The reason for this sharp drop was the unoptimistic predictions coming from the market about a trade war on the other side of the ocean.
After the United States last raised taxes on imported large washing machines and photovoltaic products, this time it imposed an anti-dumping tariff of 109.9% on imported cast iron sewage pipe fittings.
In the same month, it was announced that it would impose anti-dumping duties of 48.64% to 106.09%, and countervailing duties of 17.14% and 80.97% on domestic aluminum foil product manufacturers.
These two pieces of news came from the other side of the ocean. Although they have not yet been officially implemented, they can already indicate that this invisible war is just the beginning, and it is far from the end.
Because of this, a group of people began to take advantage of this to short-sell.
It’s just a pain to those most lovely investors who believe that the economy will definitely improve.
And after the market briefly fell to 3062 points, it did not end. However, the Spring Festival was approaching at this time, which gave these investors a chance to breathe temporarily, otherwise their wives and children would be separated this year.
Cao Zheng just came back from the city. When he caught Cao Shujie, he complained to him: "Shujie, you don't know. There are no good things in that bastard market. There are a lot of short sellers. Damn it. I won't say anything when they come out."
played."
When Cao Shujie heard what he said, his eyes became strange: "Brother, are you still playing stocks? Are you stupid?"
"Aren't you playing too? I just took 300,000 and went in to play." Cao Zhen said.
It seems that to him, the 300,000 is as simple as sprinkling water.
Cao Shujie didn't even know how to say good things about him.
"Even if you take this money into the casino, those people still have to call you 'Brother Zhen' or 'Master Cao', but you can still hear it. I found that you are really a typical financial consumer."
." Cao Shujie's words were full of sarcasm.
Cao Zhen didn’t know what was going on with financial consumers, so what did he mean by asking him?
"Just use money to spend money in the financial market. Don't you also have to spend money when you go to the supermarket to buy things? Isn't it natural for you to buy some stocks and lose some money?" Cao Shujie said.
When Cao Zhen heard his explanation, he immediately understood what he meant.
He even felt that the expression "Fa Xiao Cao Shujie" was quite vivid.
"Financial consumers are not bad at all." Cao Zhen complained.
Cao Shujie asked him which stock he bought, and then heard Cao Zhen tell him that he bought Shuangjie Electric.
"Shuangjie Electric?" Cao Shujie has never heard of this stock, and it sounds quite unpopular.
Cao Zhen told him that when this stock was first listed in 2015, it went from a few yuan to 140 yuan in one breath. He bought it for 24 yuan, and Cao Zhen felt that this stock had been falling from 2015 to now.
It has been falling for almost three years. He feels that in terms of stock price and decline cycle, it has been cut in half again at this position. If he buys it at this time, he should be able to make a profit.
"How much does it cost now? Cao Shujie remembered something and asked him."
As soon as he finished asking, he saw Cao Zhen saying weakly: "Don't mention it, trading was suspended years ago. Before the suspension, it was 17 yuan per share. I have already lost 7 yuan per share. I'm so angry."
Hearing what he said, Cao Shujie really admired him. He had a good vision. He could even choose such a top quality person. What else could be said about him?
Cao Shujie also asked him why he didn't stop the loss in time. In Cao Zhen's words, he had already lost so much and didn't know what to buy. He just took it and waited for it to grow.
"No, why do you think it can go up?" Cao Shujie thought this was a very strange and magical argument?
"Have you never thought that it might fall even harder later?" Cao Shujie asked him.
Cao Zhen was frightened by his question. So far, based on his cost price, he has lost 30%, which means he has lost 100,000 yuan.
"You mean I still have to compensate?" Cao Zhen asked him.
Cao Shujie really didn't understand this stock. He told Cao Zhen: "I really don't understand. I have already lost so much. You can either stop your losses now or stop playing in the future."
"Either wait until the price rebounds later and sell it quickly, or if there is a low price, you can make up more."
Cao Zhen rolled his eyes and asked Cao Shujie, where did he think the low point was?
"How the hell did I know, Cao Zhen, let me tell you this, it was a mistake for you to buy stocks. You just made a profit last time, so you shouldn't buy it now." Cao Shujie said earnestly.
Cao Zhen regrets it now. Fortunately, the 300,000 yuan is nothing to him.
The Xinjiang Hotel in the city helps him make a lot of money all year round. The Xinjiang Hotel branch opened in Caojiazhuang makes money at a rate that makes him even more scared during the peak tourist season. Fortunately, 30% of the shares in it are from him to Cao Shujie, otherwise
He really felt that the money was very hot to earn.
"Are you still buying it?" Cao Zhen asked Cao Shujie.
Then I heard Cao Shujie say: "I've already finished selling it, and I haven't bought it yet."
He wouldn't recommend stocks anyway.
"Then what are you investing in now?" Cao Zhen was curious.
He remembered something and asked Cao Shujie if he had ever invested in Bitcoin?
Seeing Cao Shujie shaking his head in denial, Cao Zhen said to him again: "Shujie, I'm not trying to scare you. It's better not to buy that crap. You don't know that it went from 20,000 US dollars a piece a year ago to less than 7,000 US dollars now."
It’s been less than two months, and it’s dropped by more than half. Oh my God, it’s going up so fast, but it’s going down even faster. It’s really scary.”
Since Cao Shujie sold the 8,400 Bitcoins some time ago, he has never paid attention to this market, and he really didn't know that it had fallen so much recently.
This is like suddenly falling back to the starting point when he started selling Bitcoin, which is really a magical feeling.
"Did you fall so hard?" he asked in a pretentious manner. Cao Zhen was still frightened by this matter.
He took the initiative to tell Cao Shujie: "I saw it rose to 10,000 US dollars, and I wanted to buy two more to play with, but luckily I didn't."
But just after he finished speaking, Cao Zhen couldn't help complaining: "I was asked to buy the stock in the end, but I didn't know it would fall a lot. Damn it!"
Cao Shujie couldn't stand it any longer and burst into laughter.
Cao Zhen laughed so hard that he became a little angry: "You're just laughing, are you happy that I'm going to pay you?"
"Stop laughing." Cao Shujie finally held back his laughter.
When he asked about Cao Zhen's situation in the city, Cao Shujie felt relieved when he heard Cao Zhen tell him that everything was fine outside.
"Shujie, when will our sister get married?" Cao Zhen asked.
Especially since the last time I saw Cao Huifang and Tong Jiayi going shopping for clothes at the Five-Star Department Store, Cao Zhen sent him a message at that time. After Xiao Cao Shujie called him, he has been paying attention to this matter.
Cao Shujie said to him: "We have to wait a little longer, the two elderly people haven't met yet."
"Is the man I met last time really Fangfang's partner?" Cao Zhen asked.
When he saw him nodding slightly, Cao Zhen followed up and said, "I think that person is pretty good, and it's okay for them to get married."
"Yeah, I'll give him an annual salary of 1 million when he works in my factory," Cao Shujie said.
Cao Zhen really didn't know about this. After hearing him publish this income figure, Cao Zhen paused for a while before coming back to his senses: "So, that person is also a talent."
He is not stupid, he knows that even if he can get an annual salary of 1 million elsewhere, he is still a talent, let alone where he sends little Cao Shujie.
According to his understanding, Cao Shujie is a shrewd person who typically refuses to let go of rabbits. The fact that he can offer such a high price to the other party only shows that that person can create more value.
Cao Shujie also recognized Tong Jiayi's ability. He nodded to Cao Zhen and said, "It's not bad."
When Cao Zhen received the call and was about to go home, he told Cao Shujie that he would take some time to get together in the next few days.
He came back earlier this year than in previous years, mainly because his wife gave birth to their second child, and the second child is only half a year old. They also gave the store a holiday this year. They have been busy from beginning to end all year long, and they are ready to give themselves a good rest this time.
In addition, many employees in the store have to go back to Xinjiang Changji.
"Okay, let's get together again when they all come back." Cao Shujie happily agreed. (End of Chapter)
