55: Chapter 54 Leverage
Building 12, 5th floor, Room 502.
Now, he could finally enter and leave this room openly and honestly.
He no longer had to fear being disturbed or having his ribs broken halfway through.
Just thinking about it brought tears of sorrow.
He pressed the doorbell.
With almost no waiting time, the door opened in a second.
"You little brat, you're getting bolder now, aren't you? Daring to stand me up?"
Lin Feng entered the room and locked the door behind him with a click.
"Ah… what are you doing?"
"Naturally, I'm letting you punish me."
Tian Xue was swept up into a princess carry by Lin Feng. She wrapped her arms around Lin Feng's neck and gave a coquettish pout.
A young married woman just over thirty was still too authoritative.
Whether he was with Qin Yu or Secretary Li Wanqiu, he never felt this kind of soul-deep impulse.
Among the women Lin Feng knew, only Xu Luo could go toe-to-toe with her.
But after all, Xu Luo wasn't married, so she still lacked that touch of a married woman's charm.
An hour later, Tian Xue was glowing, her eyes filled with affection for Lin Feng.
"Look, what is this?"
Lin Feng took out a set of keys and placed them in front of Tian Xue.
"House keys? What? Did you buy a house?"
"Yeah, guess where it is?"
Tian Xue felt the keys looked a bit familiar.
In this kind of old residential complex, they used uniform doors when they were built, so the keys generally looked the same.
"How come they look exactly like the keys to my place?"
"You brat, don't tell me…"
"Teacher Tian, your imagination is really wild. Do you think I'd secretly go make a copy of your keys? I bought a unit upstairs."
"Upstairs? On the 7th floor?"
"Yeah."
Tian Xue looked shocked and asked with confusion, "Why did you buy a place upstairs? It's the 7th floor. Leaving aside the inconvenience of the high floor, it's such an old building, the cost-effectiveness is too low."
"I bought the unit in the middle."
Tian Xue suddenly crawled out from under the blanket and reached out to touch Lin Feng's forehead.
"You aren't running a fever, are you? That unit doesn't even face south. It's dark, cold, and damp—not fit for living in."
"Teacher Tian, buying upstairs is great. I can come stay occasionally, and then won't we be neighbors?"
"Can't you just come stay at my place?"
"I can come over for tutoring, but staying the night is a no-go. A widow having an affair with her student wouldn't look good if the neighbors found out, would it?"
"So you did this for me?"
"Hehe, Teacher Tian, can't you tell? I did it so it would be more convenient for us to do things."
"You little brat, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter."
She casually grabbed the laptop from the bedside. After some operation, Lin Feng's phone vibrated.
He picked it up to take a look and said in surprise, "Why did you transfer 200,000 to me?"
"You're starting a business now and need money. Naturally, I have to support you."
"Didn't you put all your money into the stock market?"
"That rare earth stock of yours is truly miraculous. It's gone up another 5 points recently, but it takes two months before I can sell."
"I still had about 100,000 in my hands, so I took out 50,000 to play with something a bit unorthodox."
"Teacher Tian, you didn't go gambling, did you?"
"I'm a university teacher, not a gambler. With such good benefits at my workplace, why would I go gambling for no reason?"
[ In order to have more money to support her little lover's business venture, the Chinese teacher took out 50,000 yuan to engage in leveraged trading. Risk rate: 100% ]
"You… played with leverage?"
Tian Xue looked at Lin Feng in surprise, stunned for a full ten seconds.
"You can even guess that?"
"50,000, 10x leverage. The cost is low, but you could be liquidated in a minute."
"Wealth is sought in danger. I can afford to play with 50,000."
"An account opened by a financing company? They help you trade?"
"Yeah, but I chose the stocks myself."
Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat. Securities firms have higher requirements for opening leverage.
In the early stages, it's not a problem to find a financing company to play with 100,000 or 200,000.
But you must find a reputable and strong financing company to operate through, otherwise, problems can easily arise.
Hidden intelligence can make one invincible.
Usually, with leveraged trading, a 20% drop will trigger a forced liquidation.
But for him, this risk was equal to 0.
Lin Feng glanced at Tian Xue.
[ She is looking for a leveraged account at the Shen City Kaisheng Financing Company. In fact, the parent company behind it is Kaisheng Finance, a medium-sized financial company with a small reputation in the Shen City financial circle. Chairman: Liu Xun. The company was established 8 years ago and is very professional in futures, funds, stocks, and other operations. Risk regarding reputation: 0 ]
This company is quite reliable; at least if she wins money, there won't be any issues with the funds.
[ Name: Tian Xue. In one week, due to leveraged trading, the 100,000 principal plus 100,000 profit will be returned in full, including interest. ]
[ Currently holding stock: Hanwang Technology. Stock price: 175 yuan. Due to the reality of tablet computers and smartphones, e-books will gradually become history. One week later, the stock will begin to fall, continuing until 2011, with the stock price dropping as low as 30 yuan, a decline of over 80%. ]
This intelligence did not surprise Lin Feng.
At this point in time, it was exactly the gap period where feature phones were being replaced by smartphones.
By next year, after the apple 4 is officially released in China, global smartphones will appear in an explosive manner.
By then, e-books will completely exit the stage.
"Teacher Tian, what stock did you buy?"
"Hanwang Technology. The e-book industry will definitely get better and better. Isn't this better than paper books?"
Tian Xue was very confident. It was clear that she didn't buy the stock blindly.
"Are you still holding the stock now?"
"Yeah, it's very stable."
"A 20% liquidation line is not stable. Tomorrow at the opening, close the position."
"Lin Feng, are you serious? Do you know some inside information again?"
This time, Lin Feng shook his head and said in a very serious tone, "It's not inside information, it's a trend."
"Lin Feng, why did you study in the Literature Department? You should have applied for the Finance Department."
"Tell me, what kind of trend is it this time?"
"The apple 4 will likely arrive in China next year. By then, feature phones will gradually exit the stage of history. In the future, it's highly probable that mobile phones will be able to read novels directly using software, and e-books will definitely fall from their pedestal."
"With the development of technology, tablet computers will also appear. That thing is the real killer."
"Tablet computers? What kind of thing is that?"
"You can think of it as a large-sized apple phone, but without the calling function; it's only for entertainment."
Tian Xue felt like Lin Feng was speaking gibberish, but seeing his serious expression, it didn't seem like he was joking at all.
"Alright, I'll listen to you. I'll call the account manager right now."
Without another word, she picked up the phone and dialed the number.
"Hello? This is Tian Xue. It's like this, please help me close my position on that stock."
"Yeah, close it at tomorrow's opening. Please don't forget."
"Oh… it was suggested by a friend of mine. Yes, he knows a lot about stocks."
"You want to meet him?"
Tian Xue looked at Lin Feng, seeking his opinion.
Lin Feng reached out his hand, signaling her to give him the phone.
Taking the phone, Lin Feng placed it to his ear, and a pleasant voice came through.
"May I ask if you are Ms. Tian's friend? Are you interested in opening an account with me to play around?"
"I am interested. Do you have time to talk now?"
"This… I have some personal matters tonight, perhaps…"
"If it's not convenient, forget it…"
"Don't… how about this, can you come find me at the Starbucks cafe on Zhongnan Road now?"
"Alright, I'll be there in twenty minutes."
