Chapter 14 Assets Exceed Million US Dollars

The three of us still had breakfast together, eating the leftovers from last night. Although it was leftovers from last night, it was still delicious.

After breakfast, Yang Hai returned to his home, turned on his computer, and first checked his mailbox to see the job application resumes he had received.

After carefully reviewing the applicants' resumes, Yang Hai selected several applicants with good qualifications. He called them back according to the information left on the resumes and asked them to bring all the application materials to apply for the job.

Afterwards, Yang Hai logged into his international crude oil futures trading software account.

Just as I remembered, on January 2008, 1, the international crude oil futures price broke through $2 and then began to fall rapidly. Now it is only $100.80 a barrel.

Fortunately, Yang Hai had already set the closing selling price and the short selling price in advance, so all the transactions were completed smoothly.

According to Yang Hai's memory, this wave of correction will last for more than a month. It will probably fall below $20 a barrel on the 86th, then rise slightly to $92 a barrel, and then start to pull back to $87 a barrel, and then it will start to rise all the way.

After rising to $107 again, it began to pull back and fell back to around $100. After repeated fluctuations, it began to rise all the way, breaking through $110 a barrel, and then broke through $120 a barrel, 125 yuan a barrel, and began to pull back slightly again.

After that, it rose again and broke through $132 a barrel, then fell back again, and then broke through again, reaching $140 a barrel, $144 a barrel, and $146 a barrel, until the highest price reached $147 a barrel. After that, it started to fall all the way and could no longer break through, starting a long road of decline.

The two trading items that Yang Hai set up last night have both been completed. Now the total funds in his account have reached more than 8500 million US dollars. He holds short orders. These short orders have made him earn more than million US dollars overnight.

1 lots of oil futures are equivalent to 1000 million barrels, and the price of oil futures has fallen by more than two dollars from its highest point last night to now, which has made him a profit of more than 2000 million US dollars.

Adding the more than 1600 million US dollars transferred out previously, Yang Hai’s total assets now amount to over million US dollars.

However, Yang Hai did not seem very excited. He felt that this was normal. For him, this was just the beginning.

Although Yang Hai had never had so much money in his life before his rebirth, it didn't matter since he had been reborn. After all, he had advanced memory, which was equivalent to predicting the future.

It would be strange if you couldn't make money even with such a good advantage.

Yang Hai thought about it and withdrew another 50 million US dollars to his bank card. There was still a deposit of more than 35 million US dollars in the account, which should be enough to cope with it.

After dealing with the international crude oil futures trading, Yang Hai drove to the company again. The first person to apply for the job had also arrived.

This is a girl who just graduated from college and came to apply for the front desk position.

People who dare to apply for the receptionist position will not look bad. After all, the receptionist is the face of a company. If you are ugly, have a bad figure, and speak non-standard Mandarin, some large companies will require the receptionist to speak English and at least have a level 6 English proficiency.

The girl who came to apply for the job was named Zhou Xiaofang. She graduated from the Foreign Languages ​​Department of Huaqing University in Beijing and just graduated this year. She can speak not only English, but also Russian, and some Japanese, French, and German. However, she can only speak simple conversations and is not very proficient.

But this is already very impressive, and this is the most direct reason why Yang Hai specifically asked her to apply for the job.

"I want to know why you, who graduated from the most famous Huaqing University in China and have a great talent for languages ​​and can speak several foreign languages, would want to apply for the front desk job?"

Yang Hai asked after reading the other party's information and listening to the other party's self-introduction. "Although I am proficient in several foreign languages, in fact, knowing English is enough to find a job in China. Although knowing several foreign languages ​​will have certain advantages, it is just a translation job, and the development prospects are just so-so, there is not much room for advancement."

"What I didn't tell you is that I actually took finance and economics as a minor in school, and I also dabbled in business administration."

"In addition, I am also studying law on my own."

"Then you are truly a top student!" Yang Hai said with great surprise and admiration.

"But if that's the case, why don't you choose to continue your studies, take the postgraduate entrance examination to study for a master's degree, or study abroad and get a double doctorate or something?"

"I did think about continuing to study for a master's degree, or even studying abroad, but I was born in a very ordinary family. My parents are both registered in rural areas of the mainland, and I have a younger brother and a younger sister," said Zhou Xiaofang.

"Although I can rely on my own ability and don't need my parents to pay for it, I can also take the postgraduate entrance examination, study for a master's degree, and study abroad for further studies."

"But my parents have already paid a lot to support me to go to college. My brother and sister also have good academic performance. My parents no longer have the ability to support my brother and sister to complete their studies."

"If I only care about myself and want to take the postgraduate entrance examination and study abroad, I would be too selfish."

"I don't want to leave too many regrets in my life. It would be unfair to my younger brother and sister if they had to go to college or even finish high school because their parents couldn't afford to pay for them."

"If my parents collapse from overwork when I return from studying abroad, no matter how successful I am and how much money I make, it will not make up for the regret of not being able to take care of them."

"That's why I chose to graduate and come here to apply for a job."

"And the purpose of further study is nothing more than for future development prospects."

"What is the future of development? To put it bluntly, it's about how to make more money."

"I think with the knowledge I have learned now, even if I don't go abroad for further studies, I still have the opportunity to have a good future and can still earn enough money to support my younger siblings and my parents."

"At least it can save them from having to work so hard. This is what I should give back to them."

"As for why I applied for the front desk job, I think this job will allow me to learn a lot of knowledge and experience that I can't learn from books, and it will allow me to gain experience in the workplace."

"Besides, the job at the front desk is relatively easy, so I should have more time to study."

"But please rest assured, boss. Even if I use my working time to study, it will never affect my normal work."

"And I am also very interested in investment companies, so I came to apply for this front desk job."

"Of course, the most important point is that the company offers very good remuneration and there are also good opportunities for promotion."
