Comparing yourself to a potential partner is both difficult and easy.
There are plenty of wealthy people nowadays, but very few are as wealthy as him.
Take her second husband, for example. He's worth over 20 billion. You see how easy it is to find someone like that?
He was obese and had an ugly face; he was the kind of person who would be hard to spot in a crowd and looked quite ordinary.
If his background and wealth weren't explained, few girls would be willing to throw themselves at him.
Similarly, if a rough and uncouth man like Xing Baohua didn't have money, few people would be willing to follow him, let alone someone with cunning schemes.
The young woman was so direct; she clearly wanted to be with Xing Baohua.
It's not hard to see that he's also a gold digger, judging from his willingness to spend money on Xing Baohua.
She likes to pursue material things, but her salary is not high. How can she satisfy her material desires?
Then you can only look for rich people.
Perhaps Xing Baohua was attracted to her former beauty. But upon closer inspection, it turned out that she was nothing special.
Although there is a difference between a 200-dollar fast food meal and a 3000-dollar fast food meal, they are still fast food meals in reality, just with clearly marked prices.
Xing Baohua wanted to have fun, but there was some emotional connection involved. It wasn't the kind of relationship where he'd just give her a little something and leave.
Now, errors can be discovered and corrected in a timely manner.
While his phone rang, he apologized to Yang Lan and went outside to answer the call.
After paying the bill, he came back and told Yang Lan, "I got a call, something urgent needs to be dealt with. I'll contact you later."
To Yang Lan's astonishment, Xing Baohua left with his men.
Xing Baohua came to the capital for a small meeting. Because he had made a huge profit in oil futures, it gave people the impression that he knew something was going to happen.
While many of these are coincidences, too many coincidences raise suspicions.
The relevant departments invited Xing Baohua to talk about his ideas on oil futures trading.
Perhaps explaining it will clear up their doubts.
Many experts gathered together, preparing to listen to the lecture like students.
Xing Baohua felt he had gone a bit too far by talking about futures to a group of economists.
But there's nothing we can do! This group includes not only economists, but also experts from other departments—all highly professional ones.
"About two years ago, Ms. Jin Xin from China Merchants Group approached me and asked me to cooperate with China Merchants Group in an oil business. I refused at the time. Even if we combined our two companies, the scale would be very small."
"Why this time? Because oil prices have been at a low level for a long time, which is very unusual. If you look at the futures candlestick chart, you'll see that as soon as oil prices rise, they are quickly pushed down. It has been fluctuating around 14-15 yuan."
"What does this mean? It means that some people or many people don't want it to go up. This sends a signal, and to turn this signal into something substantial, a huge amount of news is needed."
“My people buy newspapers and watch radio news all over the world and have come to the conclusion that prices are rising and the currency is inflating in the Russians in the north, and that oil, one of the pillars of their economy, is expensive to extract.”
"It's not hard to see that one is long-term low oil prices, and the other is high oil prices. This is a disguised form of economic suppression. To profit from this, one must seize the opportunity."
"So I seized the opportunity and pooled money with close partners to trade oil futures. Our team judged that oil prices would inevitably increase by 5% to 10% this year. Long-term low prices are not in the economic interest of oil-producing regions; they also want to make money, and make more money."
Xing Baohua explained his reasons for trading oil futures, which were quite reasonable and in line with the perspective of an investor.
In other words, from the very beginning, Xing Baohua knew that a certain group was targeting the north.
Xing Baohua is betting that oil-producing regions will adjust prices.
All of this makes sense, but no one expected that the outbreak of a war would stimulate the growth of oil prices.
If Xing Baohua cannot explain clearly, some people might assume that he knew the news in advance.
Is that even possible? When did Xing Baohua pay the bill? People who launch surprise attacks don't plan more than six months in advance.
Do you really think the security measures over there are very tight? Just like Haina, it's leaky everywhere.
As we all know, many catastrophic events are unpredictable.
Although war is man-made, it is still unpredictable. Using Xing Baohua's analysis, he only wanted to earn 5%-10% of the money, but fate unexpectedly bestowed upon him extraordinary wealth, turning it into 500%.
It can only be said that Xing Baohua's luck is extraordinary.
In any case, there are too many coincidences involved.
With Xing Baohua's consent, the relevant authorities will report on the content of Xing Baohua's lecture to the experts through the media.
Believe it or not, the economic experts present at the time believed it.
Those in Hong Kong who followed Xing Baohua in trading oil futures were basically ecstatic. They threw in HK$10,000, and every few months it turned into HK$150,000.
Don't be fooled by the fact that they are all retail investors; each of them has invested hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars.
In an instant, they became millionaires, even multi-millionaires. And these new millionaires emerged in droves.
Those who left early regretted it, wondering why they left so early. They wanted to go back in but were afraid of buying at the peak, so they just watched the price rise all the way up.
To be honest, as long as the war continues, we can just enter the fray; we can enter whenever the war stops.
This is all standard practice. Some people follow this principle and go straight in, but the war stops not long after.
This battle lasted for over a month, and the speed at which it unfolded caught everyone off guard.
Those who chased after the fish have all managed to cash out any small profits.
