My Side Job is a Trader

Zhang Xin has been here many times, so he is very familiar with him, so he is not as reserved and polite as he was at the beginning.

But when he saw Zhou Chaodong, he was stunned for a moment, because when Zhou Chaodong appeared in front of Zhang Xin before, he always looked like a meticulous and well-dressed typical financial elite.

But today Zhou Chaodong has messy hair and unshaved beard, he looks like a different person in peacetime.

After sitting down carelessly, Zhang Xin asked, "How did Brother Zhou get into such a state? Are you in trouble?"

Zhou Chaodong smiled bitterly, sighed, and made Zhang Xin a cup of tea.

"What's the matter? Zhou Chaodong in my impression has always been a confident, eloquent and successful person. I don't think I've ever seen you so downcast."

Zhou Chaodong said: "That's right, you're really right. I'm really down and out now. I've asked for this kind of situation. I deserve it!"

Zhang Xin just looked at him calmly. Although Zhou Chaodong didn't get to the point, Zhang Xin was not in a hurry.

Zhou Chaodong drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, put down the cup, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Brother Zhang, I'm quitting."

Zhang Xin was confused and looked at him suspiciously.

Zhou Chaodong seemed to see his doubts, and explained: "I will bid farewell to the capital market. From now on, there will be no such person as Zhou Chaodong in Huaxia's financial circle."

Zhang Xin knew that something unknown must have happened, forcing Zhou Chaodong to retire.

"Can you tell me what happened?"

Zhang Xin was also very curious about what happened to Zhou Chaodong that could cost him his career.

Zhou Chaodong sighed, and said: "Brother, I lost 200 billion of China Fund's funds in just two months, and the hundreds of millions of assets I had accumulated through hard work all my life also disappeared overnight. The house will not belong to me soon.”

"Why did you lose so much? I know your trading style. You won't be so aggressive. Even if you lose, the loss will be tens of billions at most. Have you changed your trading style?"

Zhang Xin frowned, not understanding why Zhou Chaodong, who was usually more stable, lost so much money.

"If I say that I didn't lose on the chessboard, but outside the chessboard, would you believe me?"

Zhang Xin nodded. After all, he had known Zhou Chaodong for nearly ten years, and Zhang Xin still had a keen intuition. Zhou Chaodong's behavior could still be trusted.

"Some time ago, I received instructions from above to suppress the price of copper, so I spent a lot of energy researching some fundamental information on copper. According to our investigation, several major producers of copper ore in the world have expanded their production capacity. It means that in the near future, there will be a large amount of copper in the market, so I took the opportunity to short copper commodity futures. I never thought that the copper in the market has indeed increased, but the copper price has not fallen for a long time. The strange phenomenon of price divergence was transmitted to the futures market, causing the price of copper commodity futures to rise all the way.

Later, I realized that someone was maliciously squeezing the short, and it was precisely because of the intervention of international capital that the price of copper rose all the way. At this time, I had already invested nearly 200 billion in funds, and finally had to admit defeat and leave. Within a day, the price of copper started to drop, and it had nothing to do with us after that. "

"So China Fund was targeted by international capital and lost 200 billion in vain?"

Zhou Chaodong said: "That's right."

"Theoretically speaking, with Brother Zhou's ability, the layout should be short without leaving any traces, but it happens that your layout plan has been known, which is why you have the short-squeeze operation."

Zhou Chaodong said: "That's right, as one of the most active commodity futures varieties, international copper futures has a daily trading volume of tens of billions. Every time I open a position of hundreds of millions or billions, I don't think I will Attractive."

Zhang Xin quickly thought of a possibility.

"Someone inside your Huaxia Fund tipped off the news, or there are traitors among those involved in this operation."

Zhou Chaodong slapped his thigh and said, "Brother Zhang is really intuitive. No wonder Matrix has been able to maintain its top ranking in the fund rankings for so many years."

"Have you found this person?"

Zhou Chaodong went on to say: "Later, we had an internal summary meeting, and someone also suggested that someone might have leaked my trader holding information, so I carefully reviewed every detail, and finally found this person. It is precisely because of this person that we I was forced to take the blame and resign, and later the higher-ups banned me from entering the capital market on the grounds that I did not know anyone well and caused a major mistake.”

"It seems that this person has a very close relationship with you, otherwise you would not have been punished so severely."

Zhou Chaodong said: "That's right, this person is my deputy Xie Zhongwan, thanks to the fact that I regard him as my right and left hand, and still want to train him to be my successor, I am really blind."

Zhang Xin said: "This person is deeply trusted by you. Logically speaking, he is not short of money. Your treatment from China Fund is also well-known in the industry."

Zhou Chaodong snorted coldly, and said: "Yes, this person has been with me for many years, and I have never treated him badly. Normally, this person has at least tens of millions of net worth, so he should not be easily used by others." Money buys.

Later, we found out through interrogation that this bastard did not know when he started to get involved in gambling. As a result, he not only lost all his family property, but also owed more than 10 million to the casino. Later, someone found him and promised to pay it off for him All the debts, in exchange, he needs to regularly disclose the holding information of the company's funds to others, and get paid every time, the result..."

Zhou Chaodong spread his hands and made a gesture of helplessness.

Zhang Xin couldn't help complaining: "Damn, you really didn't deserve to lose this time. With such an insider, I'm afraid I'll have to kneel down too. Unless I don't use my subordinates and operate it myself, the opponent will definitely know it. The chips in your hand and the bottom line."

Zhou Chaodong said: "So people's hearts are separated by belly. In this world, the most unpredictable thing is people's hearts. No matter how deep we study in trading, as long as we match people's hearts, we will definitely lose. Brother, you have to pay attention It's time, brother's lesson is bloody, I know you are basically a shopkeeper now, handing over the company to your employees, but don't forget brother's lesson, some things, you have to go up by yourself to be safe .”

Zhang Xin nodded in agreement on the surface, but in fact there is no need to worry too much.

Even if this kind of thing really happened to me, my supernatural powers would definitely warn me in advance, and basically I wouldn't give these 25-year-olds a chance.

Moreover, at present, most of Matrix's funds operate in the domestic capital market, and Quantum Investment is managed by itself, so it should not be a big problem.

Zhang Xin looked at Zhou Chaodong, and felt that the resumption of trading should not be the main purpose of today, Zhou Chaodong might have something to say to himself.
