"Zhuangsheng is very sorry. Due to bank regulations, all ordinary customers can use one-time leverage. Only large customers, VIP customers, and high-quality bank customers can apply for high leverage."

Agent Zhang Fuhua patiently explained to Zhuang Rongxu that although he knew it was impossible, he did not show contempt for the client because of it.

"Big client?"

"What conditions do you need to qualify as a big customer?" Zhuang Rongxu asked calmly.

Of course he knows that if he invests $10,000, he will definitely not get the attention of HSBC, and he will definitely not be given high leverage.

But now he has 10 million Hong Kong dollars. The exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars to U.S. dollars in 1979 was that 1 U.S. dollar could be exchanged for about 6.1 Hong Kong dollars.

His 10 million Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to about 1.64 million U.S. dollars, and he is not considered a small customer.

10 million Hong Kong dollars in 1979 was still a lot of money. You must know that the prices of goods and properties in Hong Kong are not very high now. Buying a large flat-floor apartment in the center of Causeway Bay only costs about 1 million Hong Kong dollars at most.

Therefore, Zhuang Rongxu believed that if he invested 10 million Hong Kong dollars, he would be considered a big customer.

However, during 1979, Hong Kong was still managed by the British Hong Kong government, and Hong Kong paper was also seriously affected by the pound. It was pegged to the pound and was quite worthless.

Compare the exchange rate of around 1-6.1 US dollars.

Compared with the mainland RMB, the current RMB 0.83 can be exchanged for 1 Hong Kong dollar, which shows that the Hong Kong dollar is not valuable.

Also, after all, the Hong Kong dollar is not a real currency. It is just a common currency for redeeming bonds. It is normal that the value is not high. It was not until 1983 that the Hong Kong dollar was linked to international currencies and had a fixed exchange rate.

Starting from 83, the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars to US dollars has been fixed at around 1-7.5. Even if it changes, it will change according to regulations and will not change arbitrarily.

"Zhuangsheng, the investment department of HSBC has regulations that customers investing in the international futures market with funds exceeding US$500,000 can apply for 1-5 times leverage."

"If you invest more than 1 million US dollars, you can apply for VIP customers, and you can apply for leverage up to 10 times."

"But when applying for the use of high-magnification leverage, a fixed condition is required, that is, you must hire an HSBC broker to trade."

"Once the risk reaches the specified conditions, the broker will carry out risk control processing as soon as possible."

After Zhuang Rongxu heard Zhang Fuhua's words, he felt at ease. With an investment of US$1 million, he could apply for 10 times the leverage. He met the conditions.

Being able to use 10 times leverage, it would cost more than 16.4 million U.S. dollars to buy crude oil futures in U.S. dollars. If he controls it well, he can make a lot of money this time.

"Okay, if you can apply for 10 times leverage for me, I will sign a contract with you immediately."

"In addition, the capital I plan to invest this time is about 10 million Hong Kong dollars. You don't need to prepare any investment plan. I have my own plan. You can apply for 10 times leverage first. Let me know if you can."

Zhuang Rongxu's words immediately stunned Zhang Fuhua, a new agent in the industry.

He was frightened not because Zhuang Rongxu needed to use ten times the leverage, but because he was dumbfounded when he heard him say he was prepared to invest 10 million Hong Kong dollars.

I was disappointed and surprised at the same time.

Not only is he a newcomer, but also his leader. Even the broker Zhou Fuman just now would be overjoyed if he received the order of 10 million investment from the client. A newcomer like him would never receive such a big customer. , how not to let him lose.

What's surprising is that even if he doesn't receive such a big customer, he can still be considered as someone who dug it up. He will get a share of all the money and water. Why not be surprised?

"Zhuang... Zhuangsheng, do you really want to invest more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars?" Zhang Fuhua was not questioning Zhuang Rongxu's financial strength, but he just couldn't believe it.

After all, he is also a newcomer, and it will definitely make him feel uncontrollably excited when he receives a large customer with an investment of tens of millions for the first time.

"Why, don't I look like there are ten million people?" Zhuang Rongxu asked him with a straight face.

"No, no, no..., don't get me wrong, Mr. Zhuang, it's just that I can't believe it. I never thought that I could receive a big customer like you."

"Sheng Zhuang, please wait a moment. I will ask the manager to come and receive you immediately. I will also apply for ten times the leverage for you. I will be back soon."

Zhang Fuhua was so excited that he hurried out without waiting for Zhuang Rongxu's response.

Soon!

"Manager, manager, are you there?"

At this time, in the manager's office of the financial investment department, Zhang Fuhua was running and shouting in an unruly manner.

He had no idea that there were two big guys sitting in the investment department manager's office.

If he knew, even if a client wanted to invest $100 million in the stock market, he would not dare to yell so recklessly.

The manager of the investment department in the office recognized Zhang Fuhua's voice, which immediately made him embarrassed. If other employees were disturbed by him yelling like this when he was receiving important guests, he would definitely ask this person to pack his things later. Leave.

But Zhang Fuhua was different. He was his brother-in-law, and he was told to marry his sister.

"General Manager Shen Bi, Vice President Aisili, I'm really sorry. Maybe my colleague came to me in an emergency, so I'll go and see what's going on first." The manager of the investment department suppressed the anger in his heart and politely apologized to the two of them.

He had to apologize to the two of them. The people who came to his office today were the chief executive of HSBC Bank, Shen Bi, and another bank vice president who came to see him.

They would come to the investment department to meet the manager in person. The reason was also to discuss matters about Iran and Iran. They also felt that there might be changes in crude oil futures, but they were not as sure as Zhuang Rongxu and wanted to discuss countermeasures.

"OK, Manager Chen, please go handle the matter first. We are not in a hurry. We will start the meeting after your people have investigated all the situations." Although Shen Bi spoke casually, the investment department manager did not dare to mention him The casualness was interpreted as politeness.

Everyone who works at HSBC knows that Shen Bi's casual attitude does not mean that he has no temper.

Once you have a problem at work, his casualness will turn into rudeness.

No one dares to provoke him with his strong methods. It can be said that those who disobey and fail to complete the tasks assigned by him have already left HSBC.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is a real businessman. Everything is valued by maximizing profits and benefiting HSBC. He has no emotions at all about other things. As long as he thinks you can create greater value for HSBC, he will I won't hesitate to support you.

If you have no value, Shen Bi will kick you out no matter how tough your background is.

"Yes. Boss, I will investigate this matter as soon as possible and contact you as soon as possible if there is any situation."

"OK, then I..."

“Dong dong dong!!!”

"Manager, are you here? I just received a big client. He said he wants to invest tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, but he needs to apply for ten times the leverage before he can sign the contract. Come out and talk to me." Zhang Fuhua hammered away desperately. The door of the manager's office directly interrupted Shen Bi's speech inside, which shocked the investment manager.

"Boss, I'm sorry."

"Since a big client is here, go and deal with the matter. Let's leave first." Shen Bi was not angry at being disturbed.

He is such a person. As long as the employees do something that is beneficial to HSBC, he will not blame them. After all, in this situation, big clients from the investment department will interrupt their conversations.

Of course Shen Bi won't be angry.

"Okay, I'll send the two bosses out." The investment manager respectfully ran to the door and opened it, letting Shen Bi and Vice President Aisili out.

When Zhang Fuhua, who was at the door at this time, saw the chief executive and vice president of HSBC Bank walking out of the office, he was once again stunned.

Completely stunned.

"Zhang Fuhua, why are you so stunned? You don't even know how to say hello when you see the general manager and deputy general manager?" the investment manager yelled at Zhang Fuhua with a straight face.

"Need not."

Shen Bi looked at Zhang Fuhua with a smile. He could see his situation, walked up to him and patted him gently: "Don't be nervous, you received big customers for the investment department, I won't blame you for disturbing our conversation, even I will also reward you."

"Work hard, I'm optimistic about you." Shen Bi didn't know whether he was sincere or not.

But Zhang Fuhua was really impressed by it and felt like he was praised by the emperor in ancient times.

Who is Shen Bi? He is like an emperor at HSBC Bank in Hong Kong. He is praised by him. How can he not make a rookie like Zhang Fuhua excited?

"Thank you, general manager. I will work hard to bring benefits to HSBC." Zhang Fuhua, who had recovered, responded quickly and respectfully.

He almost knelt down and shot Lord Long.
