Chapter 601 The Stock Market Is Risky

So much for work.

Later, the three of them were chatting about interesting things in life and work.

After enjoying the cold drink and dessert, Chen Yushan glanced at her watch and saw that the time was almost up, so she said with a smile.

"I still have a meeting to have in a while, so I'll take a step ahead. By the way, Meng Qi, remember to say hello to my aunt, and I'll come to see you in a few days."

Han Mengqi nodded: "Yeah!"

Lu Zhou also looked at the time and stood up from his chair.

"Well, I'm about to go back too. Is your car still in front of the school? Let's go there together."

He'll be back in the office later, and he plans to send an email to Sarot.

If he is willing to come to China to work, he will provide him with a laboratory.

If he is unwilling, Lu Zhou will respect his choice and help him and his laboratory find a reliable new employer. While politics affected his research, he didn't want it to continue to affect his life.

Although he has always been criticized for his exaggeration, his strength in the academic field is still quite good.

After working together for so long, Lu Zhou still appreciates him.

When they walked to the school gate together, Chen Yushan waved goodbye to Lu Zhou and his cousin, and then got into the silver lady's car.

Watching the senior sister leave, Lu Zhou also smiled and waved.

Ever since she went to Shanghai from Beijing, she always felt that she was much more energetic, as if she had regained her vitality.

Although it is impossible to describe this feeling in detail, from her body, Lu Zhou always felt a lot of different feelings from before.

As if you found your purpose in life?

But this kind of thing, for her who has been working hard all the time, it will not be available now.

Walking beside Lu Zhou, Han Mengqi secretly glanced at his profile.

After hesitating for a while, she whispered.

"Master..."

"What's wrong?"

"That... what do you think about my sister?"

Lu Zhou gave her a strange look.

"What do you think?"

Her cheeks felt a little hot, Han Mengqi said with some difficulty, "It's just... the feeling..."

Hearing this question, Lu Zhou was silent for a while, seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing his pensive expression, Han Mengqi felt inexplicably uneasy.

Suddenly, she regretted asking such a question.

However, just when she was about to confuse this question, Lu Zhou, who was thinking about this question, suddenly spoke.

"There are few friends who can communicate."

Hearing this unexpected answer, Han Mengqi was slightly taken aback.

Have few friends to communicate with?

For some reason, looking at his side face, she suddenly felt a little distressed for no reason...

...

Haizhou, the demonstration reactor base.

The demonstration reactor project has ended. After the commendation meeting, everyone is basically free, making up all the leave that was not missed last year.

Except for the expert group that solves the technical problems of generating units connected to the grid, which is still too busy, ordinary researchers and engineers just sit in the office, hold a meeting when it is time to hold a meeting, write when it is time to fill in the form, and the rest Most of the time I was doing my own thing.

For example, Su Yiwen from the technical department has recently become obsessed with futures. When he is at work, he basically just stares at the trend charts. Except when he has something to do or goes to the bathroom, he basically doesn't move his ass.

Looking at the bleak futures trading market, Lao Su, who made a fortune from short selling, sighed leisurely while clicking the mouse.

"Some time ago, the price of Brent crude oil futures was more than 60 yuan, and now it is almost below 45 dollars per barrel. Why don't we see our three barrels of oil follow up?"

If this trend continues, the oil price will have to go below 40 US dollars. If it really reaches that level, I am afraid that domestic oil wells can be shut down, right?

Zhang Xueqian, who was reading the newspaper, glanced at his old colleague and said with a smile.

"Come on, when our Pangudui is connected to the grid, it is even more impossible for the oil price to go down. Not to mention not cutting the price, maybe after a while, the technology of electric vehicles will mature, and the charging column will be extended to fourth- and fifth-tier cities. You will be charged two more fuel taxes."

Su Yiwen was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

Glancing at him, Lao Zhang smiled and said, "Do you know what macro-control is?"

"I understand... but what does this have to do with macro-control?"

"Think about it, our country relies heavily on imports of energy, and the channel for transporting energy is in the hands of others. After a while, the fusion reactor will be connected to the grid for power generation, and the cost of electricity will come down. The country will definitely have to adjust its energy structure. Push new energy vehicles. Now if the oil price comes down, will you still change your car?"

Su Yiwen thought about it, and felt that it made some sense. But that being said, he was a little bit reluctant to change the car suddenly.

Seeing that Lao Su didn't speak, Zhang Xueqian continued to speak slowly, displaying what he read from the newspaper.

"... Now lithium-sulfur battery technology has also made a breakthrough. The battery life is not worse than that of a car that burns oil. The charging time may still be a problem, but it is much better than a few years ago. And I heard that some power industry association It seems that several car companies in BYD are working together to standardize the battery interface. When you go to the gas station, you don’t need to charge it, just replace the battery. Of course, it’s hard to say when this thing will be fixed. See you later."

The state has invested tens of billions in new energy vehicles, and the money must come from another hand.

Where is this hand?

Naturally, those who are unwilling to make changes in line with the development of the times.

Although he knew it was beneficial to do so, Su Yiwen couldn't help complaining: "Isn't this forcing us to change to an electric car?"

Zhang Xueqian: "It's true that you have to understand it this way... But you also have to admit that in the long run, it is right to do so."

Whether it is from the perspective of environmental protection or from the consideration of getting rid of dependence on energy imports, with the establishment of the East Asia Electric Power Company, the elimination of fuel vehicles is the general trend.

But the people above are really good enough to play such a hand.

It took less than 100 billion to build a fusion reactor.

It not only saves trillions of energy costs, but also creates a market of trillions out of thin air.

With the advancement of electrification, industrial production capacity and social vitality will be further released.

What will the future look like?

Maybe only the future will know.

At this moment, the door of the office suddenly opened, and Section Chief Wang from the Finance Office walked in.

I saw him holding a list and a stack of contracts in his hand, and he didn't exchange pleasantries when he came in, and he didn't even drink his saliva, and said straight to the point.

"East Asia Electric Power Company raised funds from the public in the form of a public offering of shares. Is anyone interested? If not, I'll go to the side and ask."

Su Yiwen was just about to inquire, but was surprised to see that Lao Zhang, who had never been interested in stocks on weekdays, suddenly stood up.

"How many were issued?"

Section Chief Wang said simply: "A total of 2 billion shares have been issued at ten yuan per share."

Hearing this, Su Yiwen was shocked.

Fuck?

20 billion raised? !

But what surprised him even more was what Lao Zhang said next.

"I'll buy 100,000 shares!"

Su Yiwen: "???"

One hundred thousand shares!

That's a million dollars!

Doesn't this guy talk about being poor all day in the office? How did you become so rich?

However, Section Chief Wang didn't make him as he wished, and shook his head.

"Each employee can buy up to 3,000 shares."

Hearing the number three thousand, Zhang Xueqian looked a little embarrassed.

"Can I only buy three thousand shares?"

"Yes," Section Chief Wang nodded expressionlessly, without any intention of accommodating, "The purchase limit is 3,000 for technical positions, 2,000 for administrative positions above the department level, and 1,000 for other positions. The rules are planned by Fengshu. If you are not satisfied with anything, you can go to him."

Hearing that the rules were set by Secretary Feng, Zhang Xueqian sighed and said nothing more.

Three thousand is three thousand, which is actually not too little.

Counting the nearby troops and those research units distributed all over the country, the entire demonstration reactor project team adds up to nearly 10,000 people, and the total number of shares issued to the public is only 2 billion. It would be better to say that three thousand shares were allocated to them, which is already pretty good. People outside want to buy, not to mention that they can't buy much, I'm afraid they have to draw lots.

Comforting himself in his heart, Zhang Xueqian took the subscription agreement from Section Chief Wang, signed his name on it, and filled in the subscription share.

"Remember to pay the financial fee before Wednesday, the subscription qualification expires and becomes invalid."

After making a note on the roster that he carried with him, Section Chief Wang immediately looked at another person in the office, that is, Su Yiwen who was sitting in front of the computer.

But before he could speak, Su Yiwen immediately raised his arms.

"I want one too."

After filling out the subscription agreement, watching Section Chief Wang leave the office, Su Yiwen glanced at the agreement in his hand, and said with emotion.

"Old Zhang, the stock market is risky. Are we buying too much?"

Hearing this sentence, Zhang Xueqian couldn't help but rolled his eyes immediately, and immediately stretched out his hand, "Don't give it to me, I will share some risks for you."

"I just said that casually..."

Su Yiwen smiled mischievously, but the certificate in his hand was covered tightly.

Just kidding, he's not stupid.

This kind of opportunity to pick up money for free is rarely encountered in a lifetime, so how can there be any reason to give it up to others?

At the same time, at the same time that the shares of East Asia Electric Power Company were issued within the demonstration reactor project team, online subscriptions also started.

It's just that those professional investors of private equity funds and investment companies who have learned the news in advance through various channels and are waiting on the subscription page are surprised to find that the 20 billion stocks are gone in an instant. ?
