(Correcting the data error in Chapter 248, Lingzhou shorted oil with an investment of $10 billion. Adding the group's funds, it was $12 billion.)

——

'Lightning Project' project team.

This is a 300 square meter hall.

In the center of the hall was a large round table filled with various computers and instruments. Men and women sat around it, operating computers quickly. Before entering the hall, one could hear the sound of keyboards clacking and nervous bidding.

Lan Yueqing walked into the hall and clapped her hands.

Everyone woke up and looked up.

"Your Highness is here to visit and inspect the Group, everyone welcomes you."

Lan Yueqing said to the project team members with a cold expression.

It wasn't that she was deliberately acting cold and inhumane. It was that as the president of the group and a woman, if she acted weak, she wouldn't be able to shock the people below.

Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and applauded in welcome.

Regardless of Lingzhou's status as a prince or as the chairman of the group, he cannot be neglected.

Only when he came here did Ling Zhou feel a hint of masculine aura.

Ling Zhou looked around and found that the 'Lightning Plan' project team had about 36 people, which was a considerable number.

After all, this is a $12 billion operation.

These people include not only financial elites from the Yuanzhou Group, but also financial elites temporarily transferred from the Royal Asset Management Committee.

After all, the group has only been established for a few months, and it is impossible to attract and train too many financial talents.

Then, Lan Yueqing introduced them to Ling Zhou one by one.

The project leader is a 40-year-old man named Fang Yuan, with a square face and a very serious look. He is a financial elite recruited by Yuanzhou Group with a large sum of money. He has been in the financial industry for decades and has achieved many brilliant results.

Afterwards, he exchanged some brief greetings with everyone.

After the greetings, the project team returned to work.

The trader's fingers left a trail of afterimages as he quickly operated the computer.

Information collectors quickly collect information from all aspects of the market.

Analysts analyze market reports.

Although the entire project team was newly established, everyone is an elite, skilled in the business, and cooperates well.

Ling Zhou stood aside, watching everyone work and listening to the traders reporting the market.

"Team leader, the current crude oil price is $52.8 per barrel."

"It fell, and a large number of sell orders were thrown out."

"The current price is 52.536, down 0.5%."

“Selling…”

In the hall, there were reports of offers coming one after another, as well as the calm and unhurried commands of team leader Fang Yuan.

This time, both the royal family and his Far Eastern Investment Group used decentralized accounts to short oil. After all, it would be easy to be detected if such a large amount of funds blatantly entered the market and shorted oil.

Decentralize accounts and enable third-party accounts to operate.

Large-scale short selling will cause market panic, which will then lead investors to follow suit and sell, causing oil prices to fall.

Once the US$38 billion from the Lanling royal family, the government, and the Lanling Central Bank, as well as the US$12 billion from Yuanzhou Investment Group, a total of US$50 billion, are put on the market, it will be time to close the market.

After looking for a while, Ling Zhou smiled and nodded.

Although the atmosphere in the hall was tense, and every time a trader tapped the keyboard, every instruction was a flow of millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of funds, Ling Zhou felt a little bored.

Glancing at Lan Yueqing, she was staring intently at the display in the center of the hall, which was showing the crude oil price curve.

Obviously, she attaches great importance to this investment.

Because this includes 2 billion US dollars of the group’s money!

Although the 2 billion dollars could not be compared with Lingzhou's 10 billion dollars, for the newly established group, this amount of money could not afford any mistakes.

For this plan, the group has almost withdrawn all of its working capital!

Although, according to her understanding, this investment is operated by the royal family and will definitely be profitable.

However, when it comes to investment, there is no absolute.

As time passed, Ling Zhou leaned on the sofa and chatted with Lan Yue in a casual manner.

“Huh!”

At this time, an information collector from the "Lightning Plan" project team exclaimed.

"What's wrong?"

Team leader Fang Yuan asked with a frown.

"Team leader, several new energy companies in the United States have announced that new energy technology has made major breakthroughs. The era when humans replace old energy will not be far away."

"Team leader, European media are also hyping up new energy."

"Currently, foreign media..."

Information collectors reported quickly one by one.

For a moment, everyone in the hall looked at each other in confusion.

What's going on?

Why are so many things suddenly happening in the new energy market?

Ling Zhou, who was originally leaning leisurely on the sofa, also straightened up.

"What's going on?"

Lan Yueqing asked quickly.

Fang Yuan took the information and started analyzing it?

A few seconds later, he put down the information and said, "Foreign investors must have noticed our movements, and they are also unwilling to be left out and get involved. These news are all manipulated by big international investors."

Fang Yuan said affirmatively.

"International capital?"

Lan Yueqing frowned and looked at Ling Zhou.

"Sister Yiru, contact the royal family and ask about the situation."

Ling Zhou ordered.
