Chapter 227 When people no longer believe


Chapter 227 When people no longer believe...

"What else do you have to do tonight? Do you do scientific research or something?" Zheng Xiwen did not directly answer Qiao Yu's question and asked.

Qiao Yu shook his head and said, "Nothing is wrong for the time being."

"Come in and sit in when you have nothing to do?" Zheng Xiwen invited.

Qiao Yu nodded happily, and then followed Zheng Xiwen into the first-floor hut.

When he first came to Yanbei, he also lived here, but after Mr. Yuan took a walk around, he felt that the first floor was not suitable for human habitation, so he moved to the suite upstairs.

But in fact, Qiao Yu always thought that living in this small suite on the first floor was actually quite warm.

Especially, the bed is placed against the wall, so I feel very safe when I sleep.

And the window was facing the opposite road, with a crack in the curtains. You could see people passing by when you looked up. It was fun to secretly observe when you were bored. "By the way, where is that Zhang Mingyu?" Qiao Yu asked as he walked into the room.

After all, there was an assistant last time, so I probably didn’t need to go abroad this time, so I only had one Zheng Xiwen arranged by my side. "Go home to go on a blind date, and now you should be ready to get married." Zheng Xiwen replied. "Huh? Then when he really gets married, I'll prepare a big red envelope for him. I don't have time to go to the scene, so you can find someone to deliver it for me." Qiao Yu said immediately.

Qiao Yu was not stingy at all for the people who protected him before.

After all, he wants to be rampant, at least he can do things according to his ideas, and these people around him are quite important.

"Haha, okay! Then I will thank you on behalf of Xiao Zhang first." Zheng Xiwen smiled and replied casually.

At this time, Qiao Yu had already walked into the room and found that several computers had been connected to his small suite.

There are a total of six monitors installed everywhere, just like a miniature command center.

Perhaps for the purpose of cooling, the air conditioner in the cottage has been replaced.

"Tsk tsk tsk... It looks quite professional." Qiao Yu sighed.

"We are now taking over the security work of the International Mathematics Research Center. Not only you, but the project you recently applied for, and all the selected teams of scientists in the future are among our protection."

Zheng Xi's concise and concise language Explained sentence.

Qiao Yu nodded clearly. It seems that everyone is serious this time, and he guesses that it is not just about protecting it.

"What to drink?"

When Qiao Yu sat on the only two stools in the room, Zheng Xiwen asked.

Qiao Yu shook his head and said, "I just drank two cups of coffee from Professor Schultz, so I don't need to drink anything." "Oh, you don't seem to have any interest in the stock market and the currency circle?" Zheng Xiwen didn't be polite to Qiao Yu, and instead asked.

Qiao Yu nodded and replied, "I am not interested in things that have too many uncontrollable variables."

Zheng Xiwen smiled and said, "Actually, you can also care about these things a little bit." , with your intelligence, it doesn't take much energy to understand these things.

And at your level, it is necessary to understand anything. Materialism believes that everything is related Well. Of course, I don’t mean to let you trade stocks. It’s just a simple understanding.”

As he said that, Zheng Xiwen operated it casually on the computer, Qiao Yu saw a dazzling green on the two screens in front of him.

"This is the trading data of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the New York Mercantile Exchange and the European Exchange. Do you see what do you see?" Zheng Xiwen asked.

Qiao Yu glanced casually and concluded: "The rise of precious metals and energy last night was quite gratifying, and agricultural products also rose a lot. It seems that the money from the currency circle has also found a place. "

"Yes."

Zheng Xiwen sighed casually, nodded and said, "So now the whole world is waiting for the opening of the US stock market, waiting to see what the US stock market is today Performance. ”

Qiao Yu blinked.

"The US stock market will not open until 9:30 pm, and there is still..." As he said that, Zheng Xiwen glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer and continued, "It's only been ten minutes. Let's take care of it today. .”

Qiao Yu blinked and suddenly realized that the teacher who had taught him how to do safety protection before was about to give him another political and economic class today.

But it doesn't matter.

Although he has no interest in the stock market, it is quite interesting to occasionally see the magnificence of the stock market.

"Do you know what the total market value of the US stock market is?" Zheng Xiwen asked again.

Qiao Yu shook his head. He really didn't care about these things.

"As of yesterday, there was still $59.8 trillion. And its peak was $63 trillion that it once reached two years ago. Even though it has fallen a little, it still accounts for 50 of the total global corporate market value. %."

Zheng Xiwen reported a series of data casually, obviously he was prepared for it.

"Tsk tsk tsk... America is still rich!" Qiao Yu subconsciously expressed a series of emotions.

Sudaily is a market value of nearly 60 trillion US dollars. If converted into RMB, it will be 420 trillion...

It is no wonder that the whole world is concerned about such a huge market.

This is where hundreds of millions of canal workers eat and wear food.

Qiao Yu really couldn't think of why when he was in Philadelphia, he felt that ordinary Americans seemed to be quite poor.

After all, the United States has only 300 million people. Take out the 60 trillion yuan and every part of it, everyone can get 200,000 yuan in stocks.

If it is put in China, it means that the per capita millionaires are all millionaires, and the super financial power is so terrifying!

"Yes, it's really rich. But at the same time, you have to know that just last month, US Treasury bonds had officially exceeded the 39 trillion US dollars mark! This also means that US Treasury bonds have already occupied 106.2% of GDP ratio! "

Qiao Yu blinked and suddenly felt that many people in Philadelphia were poor.

This is almost equivalent to a per capita debt of US$130,000. In Qiao Yu's shallow understanding of capitalists, if it is a good thing on average, ordinary people will definitely not be able to gain advantage.

But if everyone is a bad thing, ordinary people will definitely not be able to escape. In other words, even if countless ordinary people have nothing to do with this debt, the bitter fruit of these debts will definitely fall on ordinary people in the end. Such a huge debt scale accounts for more than 100% of GDP, which everyone knows can't be paid off at all.

What is the concept of 39 trillion US dollars in debt?

Qiao Yu remembers that the interest rate on US bonds is quite high, and it is said that the average annual interest rate has reached four points! This is also impossible. The interest rate is not high and you can't borrow money at all.

This also means that the interest on treasury bonds alone is about US$1.56 trillion. According to roughly calculated 365 days a year, the daily interest is US$427 million!

Qiao Yu suddenly felt that the little money in his bank was really not considered money...

"It is a miracle that you can still buy things in the US dollar! With more military bases, you can be willful." Qiao Yu sighed. "It's not just a problem of too many military bases." Zheng Xiwen smiled and then said, "As I said just now, the market value of the US stock market is still 59.8 trillion. And The market value is still under the premise that the US industrial system has declined.

This can be seen from the increase in power generation. China's power generation reached 10.2 trillion kilowatt-hours throughout the year, and its global share has exceeded One third, reaching 33.7%.

The annual electricity generation in the United States was 4.9 trillion kilowatt-hours, and the global share fell to 15.02%. Although the growth rate of electricity generation increased year-on-year, the increase in electricity The driving force is mainly due to the power demand brought by AI and data centers, not industry.”

Qiao Yu nodded.

He knows how much power consumes in the data center.

No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!

The small computer room with only two cabinets in Xiyu Technology, currently the biggest monthly expense is electricity bills.

It is not only the power consumed when computing the computer in the cabinet, but the power consumed to cool the cabinet and keep the computer in the best state is also large.

Seeing the big picture, the power cost is absolutely a terrifying number for large data centers that provide cloud services and AI computing.

But even so, the annual power generation on the opposite side is less than half that of China.

When Zheng Xiwen finished these words, it was also time to 9:30 pm. Teacher Zheng operated it on the computer a few more times, and the screen in front of Qiao Yu was directly converted into a market chart of Nasdaq and New Finger.

It is obvious that the Nasdaq is bright and beautiful when it opens, and it feels quite festive just by looking at it.

Of course this is not good news for the opponent. After all, the cultures on both sides are different, so the meaning of color is also different.

In China, red represents festiveness, but on the opposite side, red represents danger and warning. So red also represents a decline.

Especially those weighted technology stocks that are ranked above seem to have fallen miserably. It's scary to see...

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk... Uncle Zheng, you should have to say that the US stock market began to plummet when it opened today, it has something to do with me, right?" Qiao Yu shrank his head , asked knowingly. "I think it's really a bit related. After all, according to some experts, what supports the value of the financial market comes from confidence in future development. The opposite side is currently based on technology.

In addition to you In addition to the military base mentioned just now, most of the confidence in maintaining high-dimensional stock market value is based on its leading cutting-edge technology."

Zheng Xiwen said with a smile. "To be honest, I just announced two Mason prime numbers. At most, I can only find a way to simulate quantum computing using electronic computers. This is at most a technological breakthrough at the software level.



Look at the ones that show the sharpest declines are Intel and Nvidia, which are making hardware. Google is a leading company in researching quantum computing, and it is not as fierce as these two companies! "

Qiao Yu pointed out He said with a sensation on the screen.

Zheng Xiwen smiled and retorted: "Do you think there is a possibility that this is because you announced the computer room used to calculate Mason's prime numbers at the report meeting, and they are not using their most advanced chips? >


For example, the winning bidder in the computer room built by Xiyu Technology Company uses Kunpeng chip, is that right? Including the overall network solution of the computer room and the OceanStor storage system, it has little to do with the latest cutting-edge technologies in the United States.

Although our China advocates restraint, you don’t have to be too modest! Facts have proved that you already have this ability, and there is nothing to be embarrassed to be realistic. "

This is very reasonable.

Qiao Yu stopped talking, so he simply leaned over, picked up the mouse, clicked a stock he was interested in, and stared at it The market looks like the market.

I have to say that although he doesn't trade stocks, it's still quite good to just look at the trends of those stocks. The stocks were sold constantly and then they were quickly eaten. .

According to the calculation of each share of more than one hundred dollars, one hundred shares are more than ten thousand dollars. Whether it is buying or selling, any order is thousands or tens of thousands of shares...

But more than ten In minutes, the trading volume has exceeded 100 million. Qiao Yu felt distressed when he saw it.

After all, the market value is too weak...

A company is often pushed to a valuation of two or three trillion yuan, but these technology companies can actually cash out thousands of assets, which can be worth thousands of times. It's good if it's billion.

Once you start to go through bankruptcy protection, the most valuable things are probably the land and buildings above the headquarters building circle.

As for patents and intellectual property rights, they are only valuable if others don’t have them. If others have similar techniques... it is a matter of opinion.

So people always ask where the money that has evaporated went when the stock market fell sharply? Qiao Yu thinks this question is the most funny.

The evaporated money can basically be understood as never existed. It's just a group of people's imagination based on the so-called consensus.

It's like the 59 trillion market value of US stocks, in Qiao Yu's view, it is the collective imagination of many communities of interest.

When this imagination cannot be maintained, the valuation buildings built on second-order derivative expectations will naturally collapse.

This is also the reason why listed companies especially like to tell stories. Only those imaginative and irresistible stories can maintain the high valuation that everyone expects.

And once the fantasy is exposed, people no longer believe in the future...

The situation is probably like this now. We can only change some people by investing more real money. Psychological anchoring makes them believe in the future again. "Do you know why I don't like the stock market? Because I always think that stocks are a bit like quantum physics. Only when the final transaction is finally conducted, its value will instantly collapse into the real price. Other times are unknown."

When Qiao Yu was talking, the situation on the display suddenly turned sharply. God knew what was going on, and suddenly countless sellers flocked to the real-time K-line Suddenly, he took a sharp turn...

It almost instantly made many parties unable to withstand it. After a while, Qiao Yu suddenly found that the page stopped moving...

Qiao Yu looked at the time on the computer, and it was only 9:45. It seems a bit wrong. The exchange can't get off work after only fifteen minutes, right?

Zheng Xiwen next to him probably saw Qiao Yu's doubts and explained: "The circuit breaker was triggered. You can understand it as the self-protection mechanism of the stock market.

When a stock is in a short time If the decline reaches the preset percentage, trading will be suspended first, so that investors can calm down. Look, it has fallen by ten points."

Qiao Yu took a deep breath and blinked at Zheng Xiwen He blinked and asked, "Well, Uncle Zheng, I'll arrange for you to follow me alone. Isn't it a little less?"
