Future chat group - Chapter 868 Self-protection
After the meeting, before Lei Hao went to bed, he also talked with several Thunder executives for a while.
“The systems of large financial institutions are already very mature, and there are not many things we can change.”
“It depends on man-made circumstances. It’s not like we don’t have the opportunity to create a management vacuum on the board of directors.”
“It’s just that… I always feel like we are the villains.”
“But we didn’t break the law. Even if we short-sell the U.S. dollar in the future, Thunder and Yajin Investment are going in the same direction. As long as the plan is successful, we will win together.”
Lei Hao was speechless as the opinions passed into his mind one by one. This group of executives from Thunderbolt are all talents, and talents all have the innate skills to “confuse right and wrong.”
It was obviously a group of shareholders who were trying to trick Yajin Investment, but when the Thunder executives said it, they were so arrogant.
Lei Hao is very sober. He seems to have given up part of his monetary gains and chosen rights. In fact, he wants to use this right to seek greater monetary gains for himself, and then… combine the two.
Strictly speaking, this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy that involves a large amount of capital. The stakes are one’s reputation in the financial circle and almost all of one’s net worth. It is just that everyone is not yet sure when they will see the key information to promote the plan.
On the night of the wedding, Qiu Yuting could see the pressure on Lei Hao’s heart. She was the one who knew the plan, but she didn’t know how far things would go. Whether it would be a small taste or a crazy hedging, everything depends on the information and the situation. Specific changes in technology.
But when it comes to Lei Hao’s level, opportunities may appear at any time. Lei Hao’s plan is destined that he will rise up at some point. That time is the moment when life and death begin, and he doesn’t even have time for a honeymoon.
If you step forward, the sky will be brighter, but if you fail to step forward, you may fall into the abyss.
“Since we have another discussion, let’s force the palace again.” Regardless of whether the plan goes smoothly or not, he must get more rights from Ya Jin Tou, and Lei Hao will not make the second option.
In the next few days, just after getting married, Lei Hao still took a break. It was not until Monday, January 29, after returning to Yajin Investment, that he led the investment department to present a problem to the board of directors.
“Establishing a futures fund? Expanding exposure?” Rui and other board members had a splitting headache.
According to the capital attributes of Yajin Investment, Lei Hao does not need to directly enter the futures market. The way they purchase futures is by holding shares in futures funds, which is FOF funds.
If I want to hold a fund, I will directly buy a futures fund contract, which is equivalent to holding it in disguise.
However, this part of the funds accounts for a very small proportion and is basically used to hedge certain exposure risks. Yajin Investment mostly directly holds low-risk securities.
For example, buying bonds, buying currency fund contracts, entering the interbank lending market, buying blue chip stocks in emerging markets, etc., from front to back, the risk increases from low to high. You can see that buying stocks is high risk, and you suddenly say you want to buy it. Do you think it’s not enough of a headache for the board of directors to point to gold futures and currency futures?
“Is Lei planning to turn Ya Jin Tou into a big Thunder?” Rui always had a bad premonition deep in his heart, but the struggle for power between management and decision-makers is a normal thing in any company. He didn’t think deeply about it.
However, the difficult problem given by Lei Hao must be solved by the board of directors.
It is easy to understand that the investment department led by Lei Hao has been shorting the US dollar recently, but their exposure is not too high, with all 40 billion invested.
Tens of billions of US dollars may seem like a lot, but the risk taken by Asia Financial Investment is really not that big. If you are short on the US dollar, just buy some gold, buy some oil, and do some trading of US dollars for other currencies. Even if the US dollar index is crazy If it falls by 1%, Asia Financial Investment may not be able to earn a corresponding profit of 400 million.
However, Yajin Investment has entered the basic market, and all transactions will directly feed back to the value of the US dollar. While being bearish, it is also suppressing the value of the US dollar, which is equivalent to reducing a little risk.
“It can’t go on any longer.” Rui was sitting in the office at the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the headquarters of Yajin Investment. Gradually, he also understood that the contradiction between the board of directors and the investment department could no longer be reconciled.
With Lei Hao, a wild financial legend, Yakin Investment has the intention of moving closer to the Thunder style.
Normal financial institutions cannot learn from Thunder, so this is a conflict of ideas, a natural contradiction between decision-makers and operators, and one party always needs to compromise.
In Rui’s view, the last one to compromise must be the board of directors, because… Lei Hao is awesome.
Let Thunder go, let Thunder transform, and in turn take over Asia Financial Investment’s funds. Foreign institutions such as Keda and HSBC need to coax Lei Hao, and the mere board members will definitely be replaced at their word.
The two sides continue to butt heads. In the end, the management model insisted by Rui and others may be preserved, but their status as directors will be taken away by others.
In order to appease Lei Hao, shareholders don’t care who you are on the board of directors. As long as the rate of return is guaranteed, Lei Hao will have a crushing advantage.
“Lei wants it, why should I stop him.” Rui gradually made up his mind, looking at the plan submitted by the investment department, a wry smile appeared on his lips.
Soon, after Lei Hao attended the board meeting on Monday, he received feedback from Rui: the investment plan was rejected.
The establishment of futures funds will definitely be rejected, but increasing positions and expanding exposures will also be rejected. There is something different in this.
“Rui wants to delegate power.” Lei Hao did not communicate with Rui and other directors, but he still saw the other party’s purpose.
Given the current situation of Asia Financial Investment, the board of directors completely rejected the investment department’s request. This is not a bad thing. Instead, it highlights the contradiction and seeks a solution.
The board of directors rejects your proposal, and then when the market proves that the board of directors is wrong, is it natural to delegate power? What do shareholders have to say? Let them go find Lei Huhu. Rui and other directors have already adopted the attitude of “I won’t accompany you.”
The people sent by major institutions to serve as directors of Yajin Investment are all professional managers. They are a group of elite people. When Yajin Investment is obviously improving, are they offending Lei Hao or slightly disobeying the shareholders? Instructions, do you even need to think about this? Sometimes, managers are more powerful than owners.
If Rui continues to follow the instructions of Keda, HSBC and other institutions to check and balance Lei Hao, he will definitely take the blame in the end, so why not change his attitude and try to create opportunities to cooperate with Lei Hao?
“Futures funds will definitely not be established, but in other respects, if you are right, I will support decentralization. If you are wrong, I have fulfilled the duties of the board of directors!” A group of executive directors of Yajin Investment were filled with helplessness.
“The U.S. dollar index is currently at 99.1157, which means it is fluctuating around 99.1100. Are you betting that my income cannot exceed the interest rate? This is too…” Lei Hao felt dumbfounded: “It’s too easy.”
