I am devoted to scientific research, but you want to trick me into having a love relationship?

Chapter 540 Shorting Tesla?
At six o'clock in the evening, the setting sun dyed half of the clouds red. Two people who had just finished exercising were walking home along the Charles River. The ice on the river had melted long ago, and the water was gurgling. Walking along the river, one could smell the fragrance of algae.

After sweating after exercise, the tense nerves relax and the whole body feels unblocked.

"Griffiths just emailed me and they found the right manager."

"Okay, let's make an appointment to meet."

Song Yao hummed and moved a little closer to Xu Qingzhou. She would not admit that she wanted to smell Xu Qingzhou's scent more until Xu Qingzhou held her hand.

Xu Qingzhou will definitely despise him as a pervert.

"When Aunt Wang called, we talked about returning to China. Can you finish it before June?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, it will be done in April"

Xu Qingzhou took the girl's hand and walked side by side, saying slowly: "After the formal contract is signed and the funds arrive, we can simultaneously purchase the equipment for the institute. By the way, after we go back, we can't always rent a house, we should buy our own house."

Song Yao squinted her eyes and felt a little strange when she heard the words "her own house".

A house that belongs to her and Xu Qingzhou.

"what happened?"

Seeing Song Yao silent, Xu Qingzhou squeezed her hand.

Song Yao came back to her senses, shook her head, looked up at the dots of green, and said, "I just think it's magical. I have my own house. I feel very happy just thinking about it."

"Silly joy."

Xu Qingzhou smiled, thought for a moment, and suggested, "If you really like it, we can buy two sets."

"You're crazy, buying so much to cook?" Song Yao curled her lips. She was just a little touched by the idea of ​​having her own little nest, not that she liked houses. If she had bought it ten years earlier, it would have been fine to hoard it for investment.

Now, no matter how you look at it, the real estate industry is in a recession and has no future at all.

"One in Kyoto and one in Chengdu. We are all married, so it's not good to go back and live with our parents."

Xu Qingzhou said that he felt that there was a lot of potential. Even if you get married, you still have to separate from your parents. Distance creates beauty. Otherwise, every time you come back, you won’t be able to kiss or hug for more than ten days.
Of course, it’s not all sad. If we have children, we can’t live together when we come back, so we have to buy a house in Chengdu sooner or later.

"I think you have other improper purposes."

Song Yao said suspiciously. Although Xu Qingzhou's words made sense, this guy must be thinking of something bad. The last time she went home for the New Year, they hadn't been together for ten days, and he had been lusting after her.

"Teacher Song, how can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air!"

"Ha~"

"."

Xu Qingzhou felt contempt from this single syllable, but it didn't matter, since Song Yao always called him a pervert anyway.

The river breeze blows, bringing coolness and freshness.

He let out a breath, and his mind completely relaxed. He had been sitting at home for several days in a row, and now he really couldn't take it anymore.

This is because we are young and our bodies are at their peak. When I was in my thirties, I would have backaches after sitting for a whole day. It felt like all the blood was rushing to my brain, and I felt like my body was drained at any time and anywhere.

3 month 21 day.

Editorial Board of the American Economic Review.

In the morning, editor Julia Brooke made herself a cup of coffee and started her busy day at work.

"Oh, damn, these papers really should go in the trash."

Julia muttered as she marked the paper she had just read as failed.

Economics is probably the most competitive business subject. The industry has limited ability to divert students, and talented students all flock to academia. In the United States alone, there are a large number of economics PhDs who graduated from top-ranked universities who go to teach at lower-ranked universities.

Every month, their mailboxes receive countless submissions with the dream of making the top 5.

"Tesla stock price vulnerability analysis and high-frequency short selling strategy based on cross-market liquidity resonance?"

When Julia saw the title of the paper, she was stunned and laughed: "Shorting Tesla is a bold idea."

She really didn't take it seriously. Such a grand project could not be accomplished by one or two people.

This is most likely a headline grabbing trick. Song Yao.

When she saw the name of the contributor, Julia was a little confused, but also a little more serious. "From Harvard. Oh, he's Professor Morton's most proud student."

Before this, the journal had already included two papers by this girl from Xiaguo, which were very well written and each of them was eye-catching. In addition, I met her at the San Francisco exchange meeting. She is a very talented child.

Now, everyone is saying that the field of economics is not friendly to young people, and this is true.

When it comes to economics and finance, it seems like anyone can show off their skills. The threshold seems low, but this also means that the invisible threshold is high.

The field of economics requires a lot of experience, which is exactly what young people lack.

If it is Song Yao, this paper should still have something.

"The second author is Xu Qingzhou? Is he the Fields Medal winner?"

"Xu Qingzhou? Someone with the same name, right?" a colleague said uncertainly.

Julia clicked on the paper.

【Abstract: Tesla's stock price is vulnerable to the three-body resonance of "order book-social media-option market". High-frequency traders can trigger a self-reinforcing short-selling cycle through precise liquidity hunting (error < 0.1 second), with the theoretical maximum short-selling profit per day reaching 12.7%】

Julia couldn't help but sit up straighter, somewhat attracted by the content in front of her, and continued to read with concentration.

Half an hour passed.

Julia looked complicated and said to her colleague: "Hey, Euan, I think it is very necessary for you to read this paper."

"Ok?"

"Song Yao's paper, with an initial capital of US$5 million, can leverage tens of billions of short-selling momentum. I dare say that this will be one of the best and most exciting papers we have collected this year."

"Are you sure you're talking about that 22-year-old girl?"

"Yes, in the name of God!"

Julia said with certainty that it was hard to imagine that such a complicated short-selling plan was completed by two people.

At the same time, in the student dormitory of Oxford University.

Economics student Ralph Heywood is browsing arXiv, checking out the latest Tesla-related papers as requested by his instructor.

As one of the hottest companies in the world, this behemoth is the subject of research by countless research groups.

What they do is explore the operating model.

"Shorting Tesla? Crazy!"

Ralph Haywood laughed. Rather than using the word "bold" to describe this paper, he preferred to use the word "crazy".

Seeing that the paper came from Harvard, he still patiently took a look at it.

Author, Song Yao?

Seems like I've seen it somewhere.
Xu Qingzhou?
Ralph Haywood had a strange expression on his face. The man from Xia Country?

Oh my god, it is true!

Ralph Haywood stared, took a deep breath, and focused on his paper.

After a long time.

"It's incredible!"

Leif Heywood leaned back in his chair and read the paper again, muttering to himself, "The logic of the entire paper is extremely rigorous. Song Yao. Song Yao, I remember that her article was published in the American Economic Review! There are no loopholes in the various mathematical models. She is worthy of being a Fields Medal winner. I just don't know how effective it is in actual application."

He shook his head.

Regardless of whether what is said above is really correct, to complete this plan, at least US$5 million in start-up capital is needed, which is not something that can be done just by saying it.

He thought about it and shared the paper with his supervisor.
