"God, you have finally been evacuated from Java, this is the best news I have received in months, and to be honest, I don't even know how to make it up, and now I understand how difficult it is for you to do your work in the SFA, the Office of Military Equipment and Foreign Relations Research and Public Opinion Guidance. ”

"You're mistaken, we didn't have such an institution in the old plane. And what you said is too exaggerated, in fact, in the past six months, your work has been very good, and you have pulled the bond below 70%. ”

"But that's not enough, our goal is to pull the bond below 50% so that we can make a profit. But with the news of your evacuation from Java, I'm sure enough. But then again, some time ago, you were so uncooperative, and if it weren't for the news of your evacuation from Java, it is estimated that in another week, the bonds would have rebounded again, and I even wonder if you are our partners. ”

"There is no way to do it, because the government is thinking about the overall situation, it is impossible to think only about bonds, and we have invested more than 7 million US dollars, and we have fulfilled the obligations of partners, and the rest of the matter should be for you to figure out a way, if we do everything well, then what are we going to do with you? And haven't we succeeded in pulling the bonds below 70% so far? This shows that there is still a way. ”

"That's because the method you taught us is really effective, so we can pull the bond below 70% under such unfavorable conditions, so your SFA is really powerful. By the way, you should have set up this organization by now. ”

"I repeat, we don't have this institution, we didn't have it in the past, and we don't have it now. ”

After the Portsmouth negotiations, the East China government and fellow traveler Thomas Anderson reached a consensus of interests and prepared to join forces to short the bonds of the East China government as the first cooperation between the two sides. The East China government also sent a special working group to be responsible for cooperation and docking with Anderson, and the person who specially negotiated with Anderson was called Han Hongtao, who was originally a crossing soldier and later joined the Ministry of Security, because of his solid English skills, so he was sent to the United States to be responsible for intelligence work.

Although Anderson was an American agent in the old time and space, not a financial expert, but the United States in the old time and space was a country dominated by financial capital, and capital predators gathered, shorting and speculating high, buying low and selling high are very common things, so I have never eaten pork and seen pigs run, Anderson is still very experienced in this.

The principle of financial speculation is not complicated, it is nothing more than using various methods to sing down or praise a certain financial product, buy it when it falls to the bottom, or sell it when it rises to a high peak. However, the operation is very complicated, because whether it is buying or selling, it is against the market, so it will inevitably attract attention, but Anderson has his own way, he first negotiated in the name of different people, and registered a total of more than 100 accounts to disperse the target, so it will not be noticeable. At the same time, he hired writers from influential newspapers in the United States to hype up financial products.

Most of the wealth earned by Anderson in this era was obtained by this means, and this set of operations has been played very skillfully, and this time he intends to borrow the bonds of the East China government to make a big deal and completely turn over, so he is also full of confidence.

After the breakdown of the Portsmouth negotiations, Britain and France led the formation of the Far East Expeditionary Force to prepare for the armed intervention of the Far East in the Far East War. Anderson seized this opportunity and instructed hired writers to publish articles in various newspapers, vigorously singing the praises of the East China government and reminding the American people to be careful of the risks of the East China government bonds, because once the East China government fails, it is likely that it will not be able to repay the principal of the bonds. Sure enough, after this operation, the effect was very significant, and retail investors have reduced prices to sell their East China government bonds, resulting in a sharp drop in bonds, once falling to a little more than 6%. Anderson, on the other hand, acquired bonds through all the accounts he controlled, quietly acquiring more than $20 million in bonds.

But at this time, the East China government first sent troops to recover Shenyang, annihilated 300,000 Russian troops, and then launched the Battle of Manchuria, defeated the Russian army, recovered Manchuria, and completely drove the Russian army out of China. This series of victories has greatly boosted the confidence of the American people in East China government bonds, so the bonds suddenly rose sharply, rising to more than 90% in just one week, and the peak has reached 94%, which is infinitely close to the normal price of East China government bonds.

At this time, Anderson couldn't help but be a little flustered, but fortunately, Han Hongtao taught him a set of operating methods, first of all, he tried his best to degrade the victory of the East China government, saying that this was only a partial victory, and it was not enough to change the overall situation, and the victory of the East China government was in the northeast battlefield, and the expeditionary force came from the sea, so this victory was worthless to the East China government, and it was also used in the wrong direction.

At the same time, he tried his best to downplay the losses of the Russian army, believing that although the Russian army lost, Russia's own strength was strong, and Britain and France provided funds for Russia, which could calm the economic crisis in Russia and allow Russia to have enough energy to send more troops to the Far East, and also pretended that there was internal information that Russia had planned to invest another 500,000 troops in the Far East, and so on.

Sure enough, after these operations, the government bonds in East China showed a downward trend, Bi Jing's capital in this era was not developed, almost all information could only be obtained from newspapers, and most American people were not familiar with China and the Far East. Therefore, it can only be believed what the newspaper says, and after the newspaper continues to sing about the East China government, the American people's confidence in the East China government will naturally be shaken, and some people began to sell bonds, and Anderson also sold more than 10 million US dollars of bonds through his many accounts, so many bonds into the financial market, immediately caused a lot of panic among the American people, and also sold together, which triggered an avalanche of East China government bonds, and finally pulled down the East China government bonds to about 7 percent after 2 weeks。 Moreover, after the bonds fell, Anderson re-bought them, and finally not only recovered all the bonds that had been sold before, but also bought more than $3 million in bonds, totaling about $2,300.

However, the bond was stabilized for less than two months, and the East China government launched another battle to land on Japan, and defeated the Japanese army, and at the same time dispatched the overseas Chinese fleet to Java to evacuate the overseas Chinese, and defeated the British Far East Fleet.

But this time, Anderson was already prepared, and before the evacuation fleet was dispatched, he first vaccinated the people, believing that the Far East Fleet was not the opponent of the overseas Chinese evacuation fleet, and after the naval battle of the Natuna Islands, he tried his best to show the strength of the expeditionary fleet, even if the East China government defeated the Far East Fleet, it was not enough to change the balance of strength between the two sides, and falsely claimed that although the overseas Chinese fleet won, its own losses were not small, in fact, it was only a disastrous victory, so after the arrival of the expeditionary force, the East China government was powerless to resist and so on.

It is precisely because of these preparatory actions in advance that this time the fluctuations of bonds have finally been stabilized, although there are only small ups and downs, but in the end it remains at about 7 percent, but this price is obviously not satisfactory, and it is necessary to further suppress the bond price, just at this time the evacuation fleet has been evacuated from Java, just to take this opportunity to further sing the decline of the East China government and suppress the price of bonds. Therefore, Han Hongtao made an appointment to meet with Anderson to discuss the next move.

Anderson said: "But this time I still want to thank you, without your help, this operation would not have been successful." ”

Han Hongtao said: "You're welcome, now we need to help each other." However, now that the expeditionary fleet has reached Singapore, it will reach the East Asian seas in about one month, and this war will not last too long, so it is best to complete all the work within one month. ”

Anderson said: "Don't worry, I'm ready, I'm going to start moving right away, this time to pull the bond down to less than 50%, even 40% in one week, and then buy at the bottom, the goal is to buy at least $25 million in bonds, and you just wait to collect the money." ”

Han Hongtao also nodded, this time the East China government originally planned to invest $5 million, but finally invested $7 million, while Anderson raised $5 million himself, with a total of $12 million for both sides. According to Anderson's promise, he would pay twice as much to the East China government, so he would eventually pay the East China government $1,400. If he could eventually buy $25 million in bonds, Anderson would receive $11 million, plus interest on the bonds, and after deducting the associated fees, the final harvest would be about $10 million. This is of course a huge gain, and it will promote Anderson from a millionaire to a multimillionaire.

The East China government issued a total of 30 million pounds worth of bonds in the U.S. market before and after, which was converted into about $145 million in US dollars, while the bonds operated by Anderson were only about $2,500, less than 20% of the total price, and the harvest was basically retail investors, which would not pose any threat to those capital predators, because the capital predators had abundant capital, and their sources of information were abundant, and their grasp of the situation was more comprehensive than that of retail investors, and they would not sell easily due to short-term fluctuations, which also gave Anderson enough room for operation.

Of course, for the East China government, the recovery of 7 or 8 million US dollars of bonds is basically a small amount for the total price of the bonds sold, after all, the East China government not only issued bonds in the US market, but also issued the same number of bonds in the German market, so it is really nothing to recover such a little, but through this operation to test Anderson's execution ability to determine whether to carry out in-depth cooperation with him, it seems that Anderson's ability can obviously be recognized.
