"Sorry, I'll interrupt. Didn't you just say you made a lot of money?"

On Christmas Day, Mori Naka and Yukina had already left by plane, while Chika and Yukino were playing mahjong.

It was obviously his birthday, but his brother was with others. This kind of thing was a big blow to Yukino.

There are probably elements to comfort Yukino, so everyone decided to play mahjong all night tonight.

Even so, in fact, when playing mahjong, Yukino and Alice were talking about finance, while Mite and Chika were listening.

By the way, after Lihua's two nine-loin treasure lanterns in Lianhu, she was forbidden to go to the mahjong table again.

So at this time, everyone is pk-k at half a dozen, but so far, no one has an absolute advantage.

"The profit on paper is different from the real profit." Alice explained, "Short selling during stock market crashes and financial crises can indeed generate a large amount of profit on paper, five times, ten times or even hundreds of times, but in fact, short selling can produce a lot of profit on paper, five times, ten times or even a hundred times, but

, your real profit may be only 30%.

Although she looks very young, Alice is not an ordinary person.

Mite didn't care much about such things, but because of her family, she also knew a little about finance, but because of this, she was even more confused.

What Yukino and Alice are talking about, at first it was the financial crisis last year, and Alice's family and Tianhai's family seemed to make a profit. Then as they talked, they talked about financial speculation, and then they came to finance.

Leverage, and just afterwards, the two talked about the profits earned by financial speculation.

Simply put, if there is a principal of 100 yuan, then the leverage generates a benefit of 1,000 yuan, and then short-selling a certain stock and earns a profit of 2,000 yuan, this is OK, but if the unit is exchanged

If it becomes "billion", the profits you earn will be very low.

If Morika was here, he would have thought of the myths that he had heard of in his previous life that prophets made hundreds of billions of dollars by using stock market crashes.

"But it is absolutely impossible to make hundreds of billions of dollars." Alice explained to Mite, "First of all, the dealer entering the market will not allow you to do this, and if you are the dealer yourself, it is very good at this time.

It is possible to face investigation and control from the government. Even if both of these can be passed, it does not mean that the end is because facing the profits directly does not mean that the profits can be made. The most serious situation is that

The other party’s company declares bankruptcy and you get nothing.”

"For example, the 'held' transaction that is now being hot because of Soros." Yukino is also conducting popular science for Mite. "The so-called 'held trading' refers to the two markets related, opposite directions and equivalent quantity.

A transaction that is profit-loss and losses. In other words, there are sellers and buyers. If the quantity is small, it is also said that if the quantity is large, such a transaction may not necessarily be touched. If it is really done, the other party may go bankrupt and lead to you.

Nothing was found."

For example, take gold as an example. If you buy one hand in the gold market at the same time, go long, and also sell one hand and short.

In theory, buying long and shorting gold requires the same amount to be considered a real hedging market. Otherwise, the size of the two sides will not be able to achieve the hedging function.

If everyone can short selling, then when the stock market crash, will we be able to make a profit and at least recover the losses?

But in fact, that kind of thing is unlikely to happen. The result of everyone rushing to sell short is nothing.

Soros has recently hyped up the concept of "hedge funds", but everyone is just watching the fun. What's going on is actually very few people who know it.

"Then how did Soros do it?" Qianjia couldn't help asking at this time.

"Well, Soros is facing the foreign exchange market. Simply put, he is facing the country. Before the financial crisis broke out, Soros bought a large amount of the currency of the victim country, and then took advantage of the changes in the victim country.

When the other party is vulnerable, he sells the currency of the victim country in one breath. In this way, the currency of the victim country will be seriously affected. At this time, if Soros shorts the currency of the country in the market, he will make a profit." Alice

It seems that I know a lot about financial matters, "The foreign exchange market is a margin market, that is, 1 US dollar can be used as 10 US dollar, that is, if Soros loses 1 US dollar because of selling the currency of the victim country, but uses the sell

If he earns $10 in the short term, his net profit will be $8. If it is $100 million in principal, it is possible to do a few more times."

"But it won't work in a major Eastern country," Yukino added.

"And if he dares to do this in our Lighthouse Country, he will be imprisoned by the IRS in the name of tax evasion the next day." Alice also added later.

"I understand that if it is a national entity, for national credit considerations, then these foreign exchanges must be exchanged. However, Soros broke his head in a certain port because they had enough foreign exchange, so it was difficult to establish short selling.

"Mite seemed to understand.

"I think it should be more than just foreign exchange in a certain port..." Qian Jia thinks it should be the power of the entire country...

"But that's limited to national considerations. If the scope is limited, it is very likely that you will make a profit of 100 million yuan on paper, and then the other party's company will buy back the debt with 100 million yuan. If you

If the principal is one billion, the net profit will only be 10%. If you disagree with the other party's actions, you need to fulfill it. If the other party makes a fuss and goes bankrupt directly, you will not be able to take any of your children.

Arrive." Alice touched the card, and then her eyes lit up, "Seven pairs, it's a waste!"

"So that's it." Mite nodded.

Simply put, it is like a future financial storm on a certain world line.

It was at this time that Lehman Brothers went bankrupt. If a prophet knew about this and then took the opportunity to make 10 billion yuan from the other party, then the gentleman would be restricted from leaving the country first and then face some trials and investigations.

If this person is very good at evading taxes and has not been evaded and then put into prison by the IRS, then the Lehman company's people will come over and ask to buy the debt back for 100 million yuan. In other words, although this person faces it directly

He earned 10 billion, but in fact this person can only get 100 million, because Lehman Brothers did not have the ability to give this person one hundred billion.

If this guy disagrees, Lehman brothers will be bankrupt when they close their eyes and go bankrupt. Then this guy will not make anything.

"Hey, Yukino, I found that we can really talk." After talking about the financial topic, Alice looked up at Yukino, "You are about to graduate. Are you interested in studying in our Big Lighthouse Country?"

"Sorry, I don't have this idea for the time being." Yukino refused without hesitation.

"Is that right? I think you'll agree." Alice shrugged.

"If my brother would come here to study, I would definitely agree, but that's impossible." Although Morika could take the time to come to the Lighthouse Country, it was still impossible to go to school here.

And if Mori Naka wouldn't come, Yukino wouldn't come either.

"Then even if it's an exchange student, come here for two years and the Ark University in California knows that this school belongs to me, and I will protect you at that time."

After the other party finished speaking, he took out a business card from his chest and handed it to Yukino.

Yukino took the business card and looked at the text on it.

"Alice Detective Office…?"

"Ahem..."

Alice's face turned red, then quickly took back the business card, then after fumbled for a while, she took out another business card and handed it to Yukino.

Well, this time the text on it became the word "ark" university.

But what happened to the business card just now?

Yukino looked at Alice who was a little shy and then tilted her head: This Alice... Could it be that she is also a secondary school disease, right?

Well, the business card just now was written in Japanese, and it was obviously not an ordinary business card, but a prop or something.

And the English business card I am holding now should be the real business card.

"Our school attaches great importance to science and engineering, but it has been strengthening the fields of finance and literature recently." Alice vaguely described the small mistake just now.

"I understand." Yukino looked at Alice. She thought for a while, and then, like Alice, stuffed her business card into her chest.

“…”

Chika glanced at Yukino in silence, then looked at Alice over there.

"What's wrong?" Mite's voice came.

Qianjia looked at Mite over there in the voice.

Finally, Qian Jia looked down at her chest.

"Uh...I've been hit hard by a very serious mental blow..."

Qian Jia holds his forehead with his hands.

"What's wrong with senior?" Yukino also looked over.

"No, it's nothing. I just feel that I still have confidence in my daily life. Now it seems that I am a little bit too weak, so it's just a little blow."

It was like a small earth slope on a plain that I always thought it was a very high mountain until one day it saw Mount Everest.

Qian Jia felt a little frustrated with her observation ability, and she caused 10,000 critical damage to herself.

"What are you talking about interesting?" Lihua was watching TV, but after hearing Qianjia's discussion, Lihua also came over.

"Hmm?" Qian Jia looked in the voice, and finally his eyes fell on Lihua's chest.

Then Qianjia breathed a sigh of relief, and even a smile appeared on her face.

"???" Lihua's question mark.

"They were discussing finance just now." Mite explained.

"Financial?" Lihua tilted her head, "I remember Sen Xiajun once said that if a country starts to shift from industry to finance, then the crisis will begin to occur."

"Oh? Teacher Xia Sen will also talk about these topics?" Alice asked in surprise.

"No, this matter was said when I was discussing the construction of a factory in a major oriental country." Lihua said, "I remember that I was discussing the cost issue with Senxia at that time, but later I don't know why.

When talking about the Big Lighthouse Country…”

Then it was almost heard at that time.

Alice was still preparing to continue asking, but at this time Alice's maid came over: "Master, the bath is ready."

Hearing the maid's words, Alice smiled on her face and said, "Hey, everyone, let's take a bath first. Don't look at it as a castle, but there is a very distinctive Roman bathhouse here!
