Reborn, back to a small county town to become a wealthy family

Chapter 644: Deciding to Create a Prototype Circle

Although Luo Yang issued an invitation, Dong Xuan and Cai Fujun still stared at the US crude oil market for several minutes.

When I left the computer screen, these 4000 short positions had a floating profit of about 80 cents.

"It seems that Mr. Luo asked us to come here late at night to discuss something very important?"

After sitting down on the sofa in the lounge, Dong Xuan spoke first: "I was wondering why you were so anxious to ask me for money at noon. It turns out that you were using it in the U.S. crude oil futures market."

Cai Fujun said nothing, but his eyes were sparkling as he looked at Luo Yang.

"Gray Rhino is preparing to raise a closed-end fund with a scale of 5000 million yuan."

Luo Yang smoked a cigarette and leaned back on the sofa, "Don't say I don't help my friends get rich. This fund will be closed until July 7th. If you are interested, you can contact Mr. Zhao."

He is only responsible for setting the bait, and the subsequent details are left to Chao Pengcheng.

"Mr. Zhao, what do you mean?"

Cai Fujun asked before Dong Xuan: "How much is each share, how many points are charged for management fees, how much is the profit, and how long is the cycle?"

As a wealthy businessman from eastern Zhejiang, he has seen many private equity fund products, so he asked questions about the key things.

Fortunately, Chao Pengcheng had heard Luo Yang say this before, so he could answer without much effort: "The scale of this fund is 5000 million Mi Yuan, each share is 100 million Mi Yuan, and each person can buy up to 3 shares. The fund cycle is half a year, and the management fee is 2 points. The tiered return can reach up to 50%."

"I'll subscribe to three first."

300 million Mi Yuan is equivalent to about 2000 million RMB in local currency.

Even though Cai Fujun is currently planning to set up a smart home factory, he can still come up with this little money.

"I will contact Lao He, Lao Liu and others tomorrow."

Not only did he reserve three copies for himself in advance, he also considered for his friends He Maosong, Liu Haishan and others: "Brother, please at least save 3 to 15 copies for me."

In other words, Cai Fujun has been making a living in Shanghai for a long time. If it was He Maosong who came tonight, at least 30 copies of Luo Yang would have to be taken away.

"Allow me to have this much share as well."

Originally, she wanted to learn more about it, but after being hyped up by Cai Fujun, Dong Xuan could only express her opinion first: "There are still many people in my circle of friends who have a lot of cash flow. Mr. Zhao, give me a day and I will contact you then!"

In just a few minutes, only a few shares of a fund product with a scale of 5000 million yuan were left.

"Brother Luo, to be honest, the size of your fund has been reduced."

Based on Luo Yang's consistent correctness in investment, and the shocking things he had just witnessed twice in a row, Cai Fujun believed that as long as he promoted it a little in the Zhejiang East Road circle, he would be able to take in all the money, not to mention 5000 million yuan, even if it doubled.

"Mr. Luo's preparations were a bit hasty."

Dong Xuan looked at the computer operating the futures trading again: "If you leak a little bit of information in advance, I will bring one or two friends to watch tonight. Your 5000 million Mi Yuan is not enough for the bosses in my circle to share."

Wow, these two people are even more Versailles than Luo Yang.

The key is that Zhao Pengcheng was also eager to try, and hinted to Luo Yang with his eyes several times.

"I do think so."

Luo Yang did not respond to Zhao Pengcheng with his eyes, but smacked his lips and said, "Gray Rhino Capital only has five international financial accounts. If the scale of funds is smaller, it can barely be enough. Once the scale is large, there will not be enough accounts."

He raised 5000 million MiYuan in the early stage, plus the 5000 million MiYuan principal in his own personal account, the two funds added up to a total of more than 1 million MiYuan.

If you add three times the capital, that would be several hundred million.

It is already very difficult to operate 5 million Euros in 5000 international financial accounts. With the addition of margin financing, even the full position cannot be operated.

If we were to expand the overall size of this fund now, these accounts would simply not be enough.

"The matter of international financial accounts is not difficult."

Dong Xuan smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "If you really want to expand the fund, tell me earlier."

Luo Yang knew that she was from the banking system and it would not be difficult for her to borrow from this kind of account, so why did he have to beat around the bush?
Are they afraid that the scale is too large and they won’t be able to raise so much money?
Or was it intentional?

President Dong really wronged Luo Yang.

In fact, he really forgot that Dong Xuan could easily get such a trading account.

I can’t say how many more there are, but a dozen is still very easy.

"Let's count the subscription size first."

Luo Yang did not immediately agree to expand the scale. After all, it was still unknown how much the circle around Jiang Yuanshan could take in.

"Then three days is the deadline."

Zhao Pengcheng compromised: "When the time comes, let's talk it over and decide the size of this fund based on the subscription situation?"

Dong Xuan and Cai Fujun nodded in agreement.

"Boss, the price of crude oil is climbing again."

Just as the three were about to continue discussing the details of the fund's launch, the voice of the trader Xiao Zhang came over: "It's 99.23 million yuan per barrel now."

The chat was then interrupted.

Luo Yang and others stood up and strode to the computer.

"This has happened several times tonight, and the market seems to be looking to break through the 100 million yuan/barrel mark."

Zhao Pengcheng is not proficient in crude oil futures, but he still has basic judgment.

Looking at the candlestick chart of crude oil prices climbing up again, he frowned and analyzed: "This time it is trading sideways at the 99-million-yuan mark. I wonder if it is going to lure more buyers or prepare for the next breakthrough?"

If it is a stock K-line chart, Cai Fujun can still understand it.

If it was the K-line chart of futures, even if it was similar, he didn't dare to speak, for fear of affecting Luo Yang's judgment.

Dong Xuan did not express her opinion, nor did she stare at the K-line chart, but instead fixed her eyes on Luo Yang.

She wanted to know what Luo Yang would do next.

"This is an attempt to lure more people!"

Luo Yang made this judgment with certainty, because he knew that for at least three months, the price of US crude oil futures would not exceed 3 million yuan per barrel.

As soon as he finished speaking, the price of crude oil jumped up again to 99.35 US dollars.

The atmosphere in the trading room suddenly became tense again.

"99.33 price, 2000 lots, short!"

Luo Yang decisively issued the trading order. With a crackling sound of keyboards, the five accounts bought a total of 2000 lots.

截止目前为止，5个账户分别在99.33、99.54、99.35三个价位上分别买入2000手，总计6000手做空。

The funds entering the market already account for half of the total funds, or 5% of the position.

Of course, according to the current situation, there is no risk of liquidation for the 99.54 lots at 2000 million yuan per barrel. Although the risk of liquidation for the other two purchases is small, it is not impossible, so Luo Yang is still a little nervous at this time.

Fortunately, this time the lure of more did not last long. Less than 98 minutes later, a big negative line was drawn and the price of crude oil plummeted. When it returned to around million yuan, the worries were put to rest.

"Looking at this market, my heart is about to jump out of my chest."

Cai Fujun has been observing the relationship between price fluctuations and capital changes. Through the rough estimate just now, he found that for a transaction of 2000 lots, every fluctuation of 1 US dollar would result in a loss of 200 million US dollars.

The line on the K-line chart of the market began to fluctuate, drawing his heart to his throat for a moment and then putting it back to its original position.

"When you do the subsequent operations, don't ask me to come and observe on site."

He took out a cigarette, lit it, took a few puffs, and then sighed, "This isn't even my own money. I feel nervous just looking at it. If it involves my own investment, wouldn't I have a heart attack?"

"That's about 1.5 million yuan in floating profit, right?"

Dong Xuan also roughly understood what was going on, and said to Luo Yang: "Aren't you going to put the money in your pocket and run away?"

When it comes to short-term operations, what matters is speed, ruthlessness and accuracy.

They often observe for half an hour or an hour, and then buy or sell when they see an opportunity, realizing profits or cutting losses within a few minutes.

However, Luo Yang did not seem to have any intention of asking traders to liquidate their positions and make settlements.

After staring at the stock market for a few minutes, Luo Yang paid attention to the time in the lower right corner of the computer.

It was already a little after 2:30 in the morning.

"Everyone, take a break. If you're hungry, you can go get something to eat."

Luo Yang once again surprised everyone and was the first to return to the rest area.

Before leaving, he patted the back of the chair behind Xiao Zhao and said, "Xiao Zhao, you and Xiao Zhang should go in batches, and leave one person to watch the market. The price of crude oil is less than 99 million yuan, so there is no need to remind you."

"We're not hungry yet!"

The two of them turned around at the same time and replied to Luo Yang.

Xiang Wanwan, on the other hand, had dinner at around four o'clock and then went to sleep. Her stomach has been empty ever since.

After listening to Luo Yang's words, he immediately went to make a bucket of instant noodles.

"Mr. Luo."

After seeing Luo Yang's operation again, Dong Xuan couldn't help herself and said, "If your fund can achieve the 50% return target, it will be much easier for Gray Rhino Capital to sell fund products in the future."

In her eyes, what she saw was not just the millions or tens of millions of dollars gained just now.

Dong Xuan vaguely saw the embryonic form of a circle with Luo Yang as the core.

Such is the power of profitable private equity.

There is no shortage of rich people in the circle. When wealth reaches a certain stage and people open up their cognition, everyone knows that the currency in their hands is depreciating at a rate of about 5% to 6% per year. If they do not make asset allocation and manage their finances effectively, their wealth will shrink.

Why is Min Hongbo's circle so cohesive?
Just because they can find ways to make money with the resources they have, others are scrambling to get in.

If Luo Yang can also demonstrate his extraordinary ability in this area, all kinds of circles will open up to him.

Even reaching out to hug him.

Not only Dong Xuan, Luo Yang also saw some possibilities in the future.

For example, although he knows the specific details of major financial events in the next few years, he knows the general trend.

Therefore, he needs a mature team, which includes analysts, risk control personnel, and professional traders. It is relatively reliable to achieve profits through the micro-manipulation of these people.

"Yes, Brother Luo, if your fund product really makes a success, I don't know how many bosses in Zhedong Road will rush to get on board with you in the future."

Cai Fujun also interrupted at this time: "Back then, you led us brothers to do a lot of profitable business. All the friends around us were envious. Many times at dinner parties, they begged Lao He and Lao Liu to introduce you to them."

You can only listen to this.

It is not unlikely that Luo Yang is also being monopolized as some kind of resource.

Otherwise, if you really want to introduce one, there are many times when four people have dinner together, and you can always bring your friends over.

Perhaps this expansion at the financial level is a good opportunity to break this monopoly.

A few people here were chatting about business, while Xiang Wanwan was slurping the instant noodles in a bucket on a computer desk.

I got to see it tonight.

Her attention was not on eating, but on eavesdropping on the conversation between Luo Yang and the others.

This was the third time she had refreshed her understanding of Luo Yang.

The first time she got to know Luo Yang was when he helped her family solve a problem. At that time, she only knew that Luo Yang was rich and a big shot in the clothing industry.

Later, she learned about Luo Yang through some public channels and found out that he not only owned a large garment factory, but also many other industries, such as her favorite Naixue milk tea and a company called Kunpeng Technology.
This is the third time tonight. It turns out that this man is also very strong in the financial market.

I peel back the veil one by one, and each time I think I know everything about him, but each time I gain new insights.

How many identities does he have?
Perhaps only when I graduate from college, walk beside him and enter his inner circle, can I fully uncover his mysterious attributes.

Before that, don't even think about escaping from his control!

Luo Yang had no idea what the porcelain doll who was slurping instant noodles was thinking at the moment. He was talking with Zhao Pengcheng about improving Gray Rhino Capital.

"After talking with Mr. Dong and Mr. Cai just now, I have some ideas in my mind."

"Chairman, please tell me."

"In the first one or two months of the third quarter, your focus should still be on recruiting people."

As Luo Yang thought about it, he prepared his words and said, "At present, Gray Rhino Capital has only 20 to 30 employees. Previously, it took the path of small but fine. Next, we need to improve it and take the path of small but comprehensive. However, the company structure must be built towards the scale of a medium-sized private equity fund company."

Before Cai Fujun and Dong Xuan came, he only asked Zhao Pengcheng to recruit traders.

This resulted in Gray Rhino Capital only having financial, human resources, fund managers, traders, investment analysts and other personnel.

In fact, a complete private equity fund company, in addition to talents in these positions, also needs to have many other positions such as risk managers, marketing, investment management, risk control, and financial directors.

With a complete set of configurations, even if Gray Rhino Capital starts out on a small scale, it will still require about 100 to 120 employees.

Zhao Pengcheng was of course happy to hear this. Although after all the positions were fully staffed, the monthly salary alone would have to reach several million, but this was how a decent and complete private equity fund company should be run!
In his excitement, he didn't care at all about what Luo Yang said or what he said wrong.

Anyway, just configure it according to the complete version.

Time passed slowly during this communication, and before we knew it, it was around four in the morning.

"Boss, Mr. Zhao, crude oil prices are falling rapidly!"

Originally, Luo Yang instructed that the price would not rise to 99 million yuan per barrel and there was no need to remind him.

However, the rapid drop in crude oil prices still made Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao, who were watching the market, couldn't help but scream.

Everyone's sleepiness disappeared instantly!
