Chapter 110 Throwing away the heavy body
"Teacher Han, here."
At the Beijing suburb airport, Isminaya was blocking the exit of the terminal. When she saw Han Ting appear, she waved the folding fan in her hand to greet her.
In Mayday, the weather is quite warm.
Han Ting's dress was still dressed in the Special Administrative Region, with only a sleeveless dress. After getting off the plane, she just felt a little cool and the wind was a bit strong, but it was completely acceptable, so she was too lazy to add clothes.
She rushed back to the capital from the Special Administrative Region to report to the major shareholder of state-owned assets, the plan to convert Hanle Electronics into production, and at the same time exchanged the situation with Gu Ao.
Seeing Mina's greeting, she immediately ran over. After Mina took her suitcase, she wrapped her arms around her cold shoulders and rushed into the car as soon as possible.
After Mina put the salute in the trunk, she wanted to sit in the passenger seat, but Han Ting pulled her to sit in the back seat with her.
The rules of the domestic officialdom are that the leader sits in the back row and the driver and secretary sits in the front row. Mina has been together in the Diplomatic Academy for more than two years, and she still understands this point, and is a little cramped, but she still doesn't resist.
"Xiao Gu, drive." Han Ting ordered, and then said to Mina kindly, "It's better to sit together and warm. After all, the capital is still colder than the special zone."
"Well, Teacher Han, you'll live in your original place later. Don't go to the guesthouse. Please. I'll go back to the dormitory these two days to sleep, or the sofa, it's quite warm anyway."
Mina said, naturally, Han Ting hugged her in her arms to keep warm.
As mentioned earlier, Mina rented the house where Han Ting was originally in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so today she accompanied Gu Ao to pick her up the plane. Among so many students, besides Gu Ao, she only counts that Mina has the best relationship with Teacher Han and is most grateful.
Although the other students have also been assigned some internship tasks by Han Ting, they are strong in their background after all, and even without Han Ting, they can still get opportunities.
From Han Ting's perspective, Mina was shot in Iraq because of the task she arranged, which made her feel very guilty at the time. In addition, Han Ting had no children, so she only taught two classes of students in total, so she loved Mina as her biological daughter.
This is also a kind of fireworks that can be passed on.
It is difficult to drive an old-fashioned manual transmission car, and it is not convenient to drive and chat while driving, so Gu Ao just kicked the accelerator to reach his destination.
Then Mina went to pack up her lunch, and Gu Ao talked about business with Han Ting.
The data Han Ting had at hand was not as detailed as Ma Feng. After all, she was already a second-hand data as a supplier, and Tiankun Media had nothing to do with her.
However, in this era, there was not even a fax machine in China, and the delivery of paper reports was very complicated. It was better to have Han Ting carry a set with her.
Gu Ao expanded the copy report and read it carefully. There were many handwritten numbers on the report, which she must have secretly converted and not allowed to see by others in the company.
At the end of last year, before CITIC Trust acquired a stake in Hanle Electronics, Gu Ao had already divided the dividends of US$2 million in advance. Therefore, the cash on Hanle Electronics' book should be almost vacant at the beginning of the year, and the money nowadays is newly earned after the joint venture.
After the equity change, Hanle Electronics sold about 7,000 "Thunder Fighter"/"Tank War" and other old products (the sales volume last year did not count), and the average profit per unit was US$350. If it belongs to Gu Ao's 40% shares, it is equivalent to US$140 per unit.
Including the OEM fee, Hanle Electronics' profit in the first half of the year was 2.8 million, and Gu Ao's dividends could account for 1.1 million.
The sales of "Pac Man" and "Bomb Man" in the first half of the year were similar to those of the old models including the "Tank War", but due to the short launch time, the shipment trend in the second half of the year was at least twice as high as the old models.
But considering that there were more competitors in the second quarter of this year, and the profit of a single unit fell from 350 to 300, Tiankun Media's total profit was only 2.2 million. In this part, because there is no state-owned assets, even if a few transactional cooperative shareholders were eliminated, at least 2 million was Gu Ao's personal.
In other words, in the first half of this year, Gu Ao's personal cash wealth increased by more than 3 million US dollars. It expanded from 2 million at the end of last year to 5 million today.
In addition, he also has absolute control of Tiankun Media and 40% of Hanle Electronics' equity, these investment assets that cannot be cashed in.
In addition, more than 1 million of the 5 million US dollars of book cash cannot be used because it belongs to the book dividend of Hanle Electronics. Generally, companies will only pay dividends at the end of the year when they settle the money every year. It is impossible to make a little money in the middle.
Newly established companies like Han Le are also subject to the articles of association and equity agreement, such as no dividends will be distributed within the first two years or three years after the new establishment.
In this case, it is equivalent to the fact that the money is nominally Gu Ao, but he is not allowed to spend this money within a few years, and it will not be thawed until the year is over.
If he is very short of money and wants to cash out immediately, that's fine. He can transfer his equity to other shareholders, but this kind of early escape transfer is often sold at a loss.
To give a real example, when Ma Feng wanted to escape from "Huaxia Yellow Pages" in 1996, Zhongg Telecom spent 1 million to acquire most of Huang Pages' shares, while Ma Feng had 20% left, which should be worth nearly 300,000 yuan.
In addition, at that time, there were more than 400,000 undistributed cash on the books of "Huaxia Yellow Pages", and at 20%, there were 90,000 yuan, which belonged to Ma Feng.
If Ma Feng took action according to the original valuation, he would have received at least more than 350,000. However, because he discovered that the purpose of Telecom's acquisition was to destroy Yellow Pages instead of operating Yellow Pages, he "fled in a hurry". In the end, he sold 100,000 yuan at a low price and left.
(Note: Telecom did not want new things to threaten its business at that time, so it just spent 1 million to buy Ping An to eliminate a potential possibility of rising. After getting it, it was ready to make a fuss and deliberately did not operate it. Ma Feng escaped after finding out that he had no future, and then started a new job.)
With Ma Feng's negotiation skills, tricks and emotional intelligence, he still has to lose two-thirds of his money-free sale. It can be seen that such things cannot be done casually unless there is a hard-core takeover.
Although Gu Ao is awesome now, he does not think that his tricks and emotional intelligence can surpass Ma Feng. He is just a comprehensive talent and is both knowledgeable in both literature and science.
After Han Ting talked to him about the books and assets for a while, she also began to figure out something wrong:
"What? Are you short of money? Are there any good business you can invest in? Why are you so anxious to distribute dividends?"
Han Ting just asked this question, Mina had already prepared lunch and came to invite the two to have dinner together.
Mina and Gu Ao are now in the same research team. The confidentiality is absolutely reliable, and Gu Ao is not afraid of letting her hear it together.
Gu Ao scooped a bowl of soup before the meal and said, "Actually, I am really short of money in the second half of the year - I would never have thought of doing such a business in my life, it was too dirty. But since it was delivered to my door, there is no reason not to take advantage of this. What I want to say later may be of great importance..."
Han Ting: "Don't keep it a secret, I'll betray you? Besides, we are also from the diplomatic system and know the importance of keeping confidentiality."
Gu Ao continued: "I also thought of the topic I have done recently. At present, we are analyzing the impact of the US election and the possible future crisis in Iraq on my country's technology introduction.
When I was working on the project, I once noticed the impact of the corresponding situation on oil futures prices since the color change research in Iran at the beginning of last year…”
Gu Ao didn't care about finance, foreign exchange, futures and other things in his previous life. He always thought finance was quite dirty. However, he still knew the concepts of major events written into history books, such as the first oil crisis and the second oil crisis.
Anyway, these two oil crises were caused by wars in the Middle East. The Fourth Middle East War in 1973 brought international crude oil prices from US$3 per barrel to US$15.
After that, it stabilized for several years and only fell to $13 to $14.
The second crisis, historical books say, started with the change of color in Iran. Gu Ao now looks back at the materials and can indeed see the fluctuations in the market. In February 1979, after Iran changed color, he announced that oil production was suspended for 60 days. In addition to global estimates of the unstable trend in the Middle East, crude oil futures prices rose from US$14 to US$19.
Although it did not rise as rapidly as the first oil crisis, several times higher, it was still 30% higher after all.
A year has passed since that wave of market, but international expectations have always been turbulent, and no one dares to say it is fine, so oil prices have not fallen back much, and have always fluctuated slightly in the range of US$17 to US$19 in the year. The current precise market is 18.4 US dollars per barrel.
Gu Ao didn't know how much international oil prices would rise after President Hussein really started war against Iran in the second half of the year (historically, it rose to $41), but he could be sure that it would definitely rise.
Therefore, this is not a gamble based on his memories of his previous life, but a precise opportunity that can be obtained through his own personal experience and close observation.
Because he had already established a relationship with President Hussein, Zhang Zhong also deployed to Iraq in advance, and many clues can be seen. Gu Ao is now a "insider trader" who can take the initiative to influence the market.
The chess pieces were all ambushed, and the topics about Iraq and Li Gen were done. The research was so thorough and thorough that it was unreasonable to waste the money on your lips.
Even a little leverage was added, this evil method that Gu Ao hated so much in his previous life could not care about.
As long as the leverage ratio is not too high.
Gu Ao is very stable. Since he knows that before the war breaks out, the oil price will have a natural fluctuation range of about 2 US dollars, the leverage ratio he borrows cannot exceed 2 US dollars divided by multiples of 19, so as not to lose the position by a small natural fluctuation before the war comes.
This is equivalent to the fact that he can use eight times the leverage of all his total assets to intervene in crude oil futures.
"According to my subject, there is a high possibility that a war between Iran and Iran will break out. If you do a short-term futures that will be delivered within 60 days after the war begins, there should be profits. I can't guarantee how much, and I want to raise as much as possible."
Through Han Ting's report, Gu Ao has seen that after he removed the core source of profit creativity of "Tiankun Media", Hanle Electronics is nothing more than an OEM factory with a higher profit margin than ordinary electronics factories.
Even if you switch to production of TVs in the future, you can make money and become bigger. That is also the credit for Han Ting's good business, and Gu Ao could not foresee it.
And this money is destined to be less profitable than President Hussein to bring eight times leverage crude oil futures.
Gu Ao decided to gradually divest his low-profit fixed assets and increase cash flow.
The East Zhejiang Daily said
I'm a little busy today, so I'll update two times.
Anyway, the recommendation is out of stock. I can't afford it.
