“当然是国际油价暴涨,”克里斯毫不犹豫地回答道:“这就是你的最终猜测吧,艾瑞克,但这是不可能的,你知道伊拉克入侵科威特意味着什么吗?这两个国家已探明的石油储量占据世界已知石油储量的1,一旦伊拉克吞并科威特,萨达姆就可以肆意操纵国际油价,这等于将他自己推到公敌的位子上,全世界都不会答应。±就算他是疯子,也不可能这么做。”„SinceeverybodybelievesthatIwantgambling, IbetDonghoito erupt into the warwithinthreemonths, Chris, ifyouare not willingto helpme, so long asIdraw cash the New Yorkcommodity exchangeto open a bank account, youdo not look that helplesslymylaymandoes go by the personpit?” Speaking of finally, Ericplayed the sentimentalsign.
“既然大家都这么认为,我才想要赌一把,我赌中东会在三个月之内爆发战争,克里斯,如果你不愿意帮我的话,我就只要自己拿着钱到纽约商品交易所开户了,你不会眼睁睁看着我一个外行进去被人坑吧?”说到最后,艾瑞克打起来感情牌。Chrislistens toEricis acting shamelessly the expressionsomewhatnot to know whether to laugh or cry: „Eric, yourpresentnet worthhas achieved1billionUSDrank, youhave been ableto buyall that youwant, it is necessarysuchto take risk?

PlaysinNew York. Goingvacation?”克里斯笑了笑,把玩着手中的一只钢笔轻声劝道:“艾瑞克,要不你先冷静两天。在纽约玩玩。或者去度个假?”„Chris. Iam very calm, Ihave decided that ifyoudo not comply, IaskPetroleumBrokerage Firmto donow,”Ericstrikes an attitudeto set out.
“克里斯。我很冷静,我已经决定了,如果你不答应的话,我现在就去找期货经纪公司自己来做,”艾瑞克作势起身。ChrisseesEric is not counterfeiting, beckons with the handto sayreluctantly: „Goodgood, Ipromiseyou, yousit downfirst.”克里斯见艾瑞克不是在作假,无奈地摆摆手说道:“好吧好吧,我答应你,你先坐下。”Theydiscussedsomedetails. Chrisshouted that comesfinancialManager of company: „Eric, yougo through the formalities that transfers accountswithWeberfirst, Iand otherslooked foryou.”
两人商议了一些细节。克里斯喊来公司的财务经理:“艾瑞克,你先跟韦伯去办理一下转账的手续,我等下去找你们。”Waits forfinancialManager of Ericandcompanyleavestogether, Chrispicked upfrontphoneto dial the Jeffreynumber: „Papa, the Ericmatter did hetellyou?”
等艾瑞克与公司的财务经理一起离开,克里斯才拿起面前的电话拨通了杰弗里的号码:“爸爸,艾瑞克的事情他跟你说了吗?”Telephonethatsaidseveralwords, Chrisalsosaid: „It seems likethismatterErichas not toldyou, but, in the telephonedoes not talk clearly, Ithink that youcomeNew York, Eriche...... Somewhathotheaded. Icannot calm down.”
电话那头说了几句话,克里斯才又道:“看来这件事艾瑞克并没有告诉你,不过,电话里说不清楚,我想你还是来一趟纽约吧,艾瑞克他……有些头脑发热。我劝不住。”Saidhastilyseveral, Chrismade the telephone callto go out of the officequickly.
匆匆说了几句,克里斯很快挂了电话走出办公室。

……Elisa Brightoncould not bear the probe headlook atoneto sitthreepeopleinliving roomonce more. ThisisEriccomes the New Yorksecond day, after having finished«Basic Instinct»shoots, before Jeffreyreturned toMarylandhim , that farmplanrest of buyingsome time, is less than oneweek, old manbecause a son'stelephonecaught up withNew Yorkin a hurry.艾丽莎.布莱顿再次忍不住探头看了一眼坐在客厅的三个人。这是艾瑞克来纽约的第二天,结束了《本能》的拍摄之后,杰弗里回了马里兰州他之前买的那个农场打算休息一段时间,才不到一个星期,老头就因为儿子的一个电话匆匆赶来了纽约。At this time, threepeopleare silent, beforeJeffreydo best to convinceurged for onehour, the meaning that Erichas not relentedthroughout, Chrissees the sceneto be somewhat awkward, suddenlyopens the mouthinfemalerules of friendshiptokitchen: „Ellie, was the suppergood?”
此时,三个人都沉默不语,之前杰弗里已经苦口婆心地劝了一个小时,艾瑞克始终没有松口的意思,克里斯见场面有些尴尬,突然开口道对厨房里的女友道:“艾丽,晚餐好了吗?”„Un, was good,”Elisarepliedhastily.
“嗯,已经好了,”艾丽莎连忙回答道。„Or do weeat mealfirst?”Chrisis probingasking.
“要不我们先吃饭?”克里斯试探着问道。Ericoriginallynotwith the meaning that Jeffreygets into a deadlock, saidgrinningly: „Jeffrey, eats mealfirst, finished eating the foodyouthento urge, to leaveagainis being hungry.”艾瑞克本来就没有跟杰弗里闹僵的意思,笑嘻嘻地说道:“杰弗里,先吃饭吧,吃完饭你再接着劝,别饿着。”old manwas smelly the facesnort|hum, set outto walktoward the dining room, EricshruggedtoChris, Chrisreluctantlysighed.老头臭着脸哼了一声,自顾自地起身朝餐厅走去,艾瑞克对克里斯耸耸肩,克里斯则是无奈地叹了口气。Elisa Brightonis a verytalkativegirl, if othertimes, sheaffirmed that sought for1-2topicsto provoke the atmosphere on dinner table, butat this time, the girlactuallyalsopeacefullysitssideChris, is having the supper not silently.艾丽莎.布莱顿本来是一个很健谈的女郎,如果是其他时候,她肯定已经寻找一两个话题将餐桌上的气氛挑动起来,不过此时,女郎却也安安静静地坐在克里斯身边,一言不发地吃着晚餐。Hada whilesuppersilent, the Jeffreyexpressionhas opened the mouthto sayfinallymoderate: „Eric, thismatteraffirmed that could not keep secret, youwantedto cook upthat...... PetroleumPetroleum, Ok, butcannotpressallmoney, cannotfrywith the loan, ifothersknow that youhave lost everythingmoneyQuanbu, definitelywill seize the chanceto pinch the Fireflyneck.”
沉默地吃了一会儿晚餐,杰弗里终于语气缓和地开口道:“艾瑞克,这件事肯定保密不了的,你想要炒那个……石油期货,可以,但不能把所有的钱都压进去,更不能用贷款来炒,要是别人知道你把钱全部赔光了,肯定会趁机掐萤火虫脖子的。”„Jeffrey, whyyoucannotthinktoward the goodplace, ifgained?”
“杰弗里,为什么你就不能往好的地方想想,万一赚了呢?”„Wherehasthisgood deed, hereisWall Street, is notHollywood, wemaybe the laymen.”
“哪有这种好事,这里是华尔街,又不是好莱坞,我们可都是外行。”Chrisinserts the tastesat the right moment: „Yes, Eric, Wall Streetis the domain of financialbigalligator, Petroleum is actually onetypebidirectionaltobetting the contract, youmade money, actuallymeansothersto be in arrears, yougainare more, others are also fortunately more, thisyouthought that yourmatchcanwant? Iwhen the Morgan Stanleywork, sawthesebiginvestment banksbeforewith own eyesformybenefit, operates the behavior of money market, let aloneanySEC( d Exchange Commission), isFBIdoes not have ideawiththesegreatalligators.”克里斯适时插口道:“是啊,艾瑞克,华尔街是金融大鳄的地盘,期货其实就是一种双向对赌合约,你赚了钱,其实就意味着别人亏了钱,你赚的越多,别人亏得也就越多,这样的话你觉得你的对手会愿意吗?我之前在摩根士丹利工作时,亲眼见到这些大投行为了自己的利益,操纵金融市场的行为,别说什么色c(证券交易管理委员会),就是f逼拿这些巨鳄们都没辙。”„A our200 millionUSDsmall dishmouth, aren't thesebiginvestment banksworthwhilein view ofus?”Ericshrugs, saidwith ease, let alone, onceMiddle Easthits, the crude pricerises dramatically, any trick of financialgreatalligatorsunderthisgeneral trendalso was patted the looseshareby the rough seas.
“我们一个两亿美元的小盘口,那些大投行犯不着针对我们吧?”艾瑞克耸耸肩,轻松地说道,更何况,一旦中东打起来,原油价格飙升,金融巨鳄们的任何伎俩在这种大趋势下也只有被大浪拍散的份儿。
The Jeffreyfather and sonhave looked at each otherone, once morepeaceful, Ericdoes not wantto continueto intertwinethisissue, lookedto sitinChrisElisa Brighton, rememberedlast yearThanksgiving, thiswas still acting difficultto the lover, nowlooked likehas been good friends as at first.杰弗里父子俩对视了一眼,再次安静了下来,艾瑞克不想继续纠结这个问题,看了看坐在克里斯身边的艾丽莎.布莱顿,记得去年感恩节,这对情侣还在闹别扭,现在看起来已经和好如初了。„Ellie, your family'sapparel companywent on the market, Irememberlast yearThanksgivingtime has probably saidthismatter?”
“艾丽,你们家的服装公司上市了吗,我记得去年感恩节的时候好像说过这件事情?”
The Elisahidden bitternesslooked ateyeboyfriend, shook the head: „Withinthreeyearswere hopeless.”艾丽莎幽怨地望了眼身边的男友,摇了摇头:“三年之内是没戏了。”„Has not related, waits forthismaking money, ifyouwant, Icaninvest,”Ericsaidwith a smile.
“没关系,等这次赚了钱,如果你愿意的话,我可以投资,”艾瑞克笑着说道。Elisasmiled the sentenceis good, has not taken seriously, withwas long, the girl who Chrisis togetheralsoknows that the risk of Petroleummarketbig, Ericsuchinvestorloseshow muchmoney, cantaketo be goodcompletely, the possibility of making moneyis minimal.艾丽莎笑了笑说了句好啊,并没有当真,跟克里斯相处的久了,女郎也知道期货市场的风险有多大,艾瑞克这样的投资者丢进去多少钱,能够完完整整地拿出来就不错了,赚钱的可能性微乎其微。„Eric, nowwhere do youlive?”Jeffreyalsoaskedat this time.
“艾瑞克,你现在住在哪里?”杰弗里这时又问道。„Ihave decided an anteroomin the 60hotels of sixthmain road, these daysplansto livethere.”
“我在第六大道的60苏豪酒店定了一个套房,这段时间就打算住在那里。”Jeffreydoes not know that the position of sixthmain road, saw a son, Chrisexplained: „The sixthmain roadleaves the New Yorkcommodity exchangeto be very near.”杰弗里并不知道第六大道的位置,看了眼儿子,克里斯解释道:“第六大道离纽约商品交易所很近。”Jeffreysighed, Ericthisdetailconsideredcontinually, it seems like that this matterdid not have any leeway of maneuver: „Chris, youput down the matter of investment companythese daysfirst , helping Ericwith single-hearted devotion, as far as possible......”杰弗里叹了口气,艾瑞克连这个细节都考虑到了,看来这件事已经没有了任何回旋的余地:“克里斯,这段时间你把投资公司的事情先放下,专心帮艾瑞克,尽量……”„Iunderstand, Papa,”Chrisnods.
“我明白,爸爸,”克里斯点点头。Followingseveraldays, Chrisstartsto helpErichire the strategistto handle the opening a bank accountmatters concerned, Jeffreyalsoall dayfollowssidetwoyoung people, naturally, must have a disputein this period, mainlyproportionaboutPetroleumearnest money.
接下来几天,克里斯就开始帮助艾瑞克雇佣操盘手已经办理开户事宜,杰弗里也整天跟在两个年轻人身边,当然,期间又少不了一番争执,主要是关于期货保证金的比例。Erichopes that the proportion of earnest moneyis5%, is20times of release levers, thiscan the fundenlargement of 200 millionUSDto4billion, butChrisandJeffreythink that shouldusefivetimes of release levers, 20%earnest money.艾瑞克希望保证金的比例为5%,也就是20倍杠杆,这样可以将2亿美元的资金放大到40亿,但克里斯和杰弗里一致认为应该用五倍杠杆,20%的保证金。Ericknows that fathers and sonstwoconsiderforoneself, has not diedstubborn, disputedonein the morning, both sideshas drawn backfinallyrespectivelyonestep, 10%earnest money, tentimes of release levers.艾瑞克知道父子两个是为自己着想,没有死拗,争执了一上午,最后双方各退一步,10%的保证金,十倍杠杆。SinceJuly, Petroleumoil pricerisesonce more, approachedeachbarrel of 19USDtop digit.
进入七月份,期货市场原油价格再次上扬,已经接近了每桶19美元的高位。EricandChrisformPetroleumto hold the plateteamalsoto startin a hurryto enter the arena.艾瑞克与克里斯匆匆组建地期货操盘团队也开始进场。Because of the situation in the Middle Eastreason, massivespeculatorsentered the crude oilPetroleummarket, was the New Yorkcommodity exchange, crude oilPetroleum the business volumebroke through100,000merelyevery day( the Niubusinesscrude oilPetroleumeach1000barrels), dayturnoverachieved2billionUSD.
因为中东局势缘故,大量投机者进入了原油期货市场,仅仅是纽约商品交易所,原油期货每日交易量就已经突破了10万手(纽商所原油期货每手1000桶),日成交量达到20亿美元。By the currentsituation in the Middle East, manypeoplein the gambling, somepeoplehope that the crude pricewill droptoseveralmonths of first14USDseaton, naturallyalsosomepeoplejudge the crude priceto continueto climb high.
以目前的中东局势,很多人都在赌,有人希望原油价格会回落到几个月前14美元的位子上,当然也有人判断原油价格会继续攀高。Therefore, Ericthisis only expected to riseto makemanyteamsdoes not appearhas the eye, but, tonot causetoomanypeopleto pay attentionas far as possible, Chris the dailyvolume of tradewill controlin10 millionUSDabout, according tothisprogress, enough the 200 millionUSDfundall spendsbeforeAugustcompletely, Erichas not raisedanyobjection.
因此,艾瑞克这只看涨做多的团队并不显得太起眼,不过,为了尽量不引起太多人注意,克里斯将每日的交易额都控制在1000万美元左右,按照这个进度,足够在八月之前将两亿美元的资金全部花完,艾瑞克也没有提出任何异议。
Before being similar toChris, such that said that after the crude pricerisesto19USD, thenno longerlarge scalerises, butstartsto fluctuatewith20USDin18USD, Jeffreycomparestwoyoung peoplebothalsoto worryevery day, the Petroleumcontractfinalizingdate that althoughEricbuys upis after October, but the profit and loss of Petroleumtransaction is actually every daysettles accounts, every day after closing, Jeffreywill be taking the calculator, was calculatingto the Petroleumcontracthas gainedmanytoday, has owedmany.
如同克里斯之前说的那样,原油价格攀升到19美元之后,便不再大幅度上扬,而是在18美元与20美元之间开始波动,杰弗里每天比两个年轻人都还操心,虽然艾瑞克买入的期货合约交割日期都是10月份之后,但期货交易的盈亏却是每日结算的,每天收盘之后,杰弗里都会拿着计算器,对着期货合约盘算今天又赚了多少,亏了多少。Was worried that old manworriesto do the heart diseaselike this, EricandChrismore than onceurgedJeffreyto return to the Marylandfarm, butvariousmeansexhausteddo not help matters.
担心老头这样操心搞出心脏病来,艾瑞克和克里斯不止一次劝杰弗里回马里兰农场去,但各种办法用尽都无济于事。Also after isday of busy, the hotel that Ericreturns to live , after having taken a bath, was planning that makesseveralphone callsto return toLos Angeles, hears the sound of doorbell, althoughknowsoneare manyin the New Yorkperson, the person who the hoteladdress that butheoccupiesknowsare not many.
又是一天的忙碌之后,艾瑞克回到居住的酒店,洗过澡之后正打算打几个电话回洛杉矶,就听到门铃的声音,虽然知道自己在纽约的人不少,但他居住的酒店地址知道的人可不多。Opens the doorcuriously, a tendersoftsmallbodyjumpsto throwtoEricondirectly, the koalaplatelives in the waist of Eric, toucheskissesrubs.
好奇地打开门,一个娇软的小身躯直接蹦起来扑到艾瑞克身上,树袋熊般盘住艾瑞克的腰身,一阵摸啊亲啊蹭啊。Thissituationis really indecent, Ericreturns the roomto closehastily, thisinDrewputin the smallbuttocks of hot-pantsto pull outtwo, favoredto drownasks: „Youdid not go toHawaiito take vacation, howto runhereto comesuddenly?”
这情形实在有伤风化,艾瑞克连忙退回房间关上门,这才在德鲁穿着热裤的小屁股上抽了两下,宠溺地问道:“你不是去夏威夷度假了吗,怎么突然跑这里来了?”Whatever the girlsEricwill loseon the sofa, lieshaunches the clearsmallchin there, the eyelooks atEricsparklingly, the laughterwas saying: „Jeffreysaid that youwere insane, makingmeurgeyouto return toLos Angelesto treat an illness.”( To be continuedpleasesearch the floatingastronomy, the novelis betterto renewis quicker!
