Chapter 129 Holding in the United Kingdom
People can refuse the temptation of money.
But for a country, for a country with a capitalist economy, capital simply cannot be rejected and cannot be rejected.
Especially, when the country is in dire need of more capital injections.
As Shen Jiannan spoke, the people in the cabinet couldn't help but look at each other, and they couldn't figure out what this guy wanted to do at all.
Don't want to?
A fool would not want to.
Capital One represents the largest short in the pound sterling market, and if this largest short defects to the UK, it will be no less than the defection of the enemy general in a war, and it is conceivable that with the unwinding of the sell positions held by Capital One and German and Carmandi, it will strangle the large-scale short speculators.
The pound will also bottom out as a result.
As for whether First Capital will take the opportunity to monopolize some domestic enterprises, it is not in the scope of the cabinet's consideration at all.
The political turmoil brought about by the economy is looming, and there is nothing more important than this, and if they cannot solve the dilemma that the pound is now facing, they will wait to step down.
Moreover, according to the Monopoly Act and the UK Foreign Investment Review, no matter how much Capital invests in it, it is unlikely that it will cause any hidden danger to national security.
That's it?
Happiness came so suddenly, John Major and others couldn't help but have an expression of disbelief on their faces, and even a sense of absurdity.
If you don't bite the meat in your mouth hard, you will spit it out again, which is too unscientific.
Even Qina Kanovski and Yulia Sidorov looked at each other and had to secretly pinch Shen Jiannan's thigh to remind him that he didn't care about the guys at the table.
In this regard, Shen Jiannan acted as if he didn't notice anything, but this guy was a little unimpressed.
If I have to say anything, it can only be that a pattern of hanging and forcing is not at the same level as these people on the chessboard.
The shortcomings of the privatization process in Britain have not yet been fully reflected, and naturally all capital is not rejected. But who would have thought that this once industrial empire would one day even have a complete monopoly on toilet paper production.
Of course, John Major and others may be able to feel something, but nothing else is compared to votes and political demand.
"No, no. Great Britain is an open country, and we welcome any investor to develop here, and even more so to welcome distinguished guests like Mr. Shen to come and invest. ”
The Minister of Trade, Economy and Foreign Exchange said a word out of duty.
But the pimple in his heart, like a cat scratching, made him add another sentence.
"But...... Don't you have anything else to ask for?"
"Oh. If anything, I just hope we can be treated fairly. But beyond this matter, I have a small personal request. Robert John, my most loyal subordinate, I am very touched by his loyalty, he is about to get married, and before that, I want to help him fulfill a wish, I wonder if you can help. ”
“......”
“......”
A group of people are full of confusion, just like Channel A and Channel B, they can't figure out what Shen Jiannan means by saying this.
Fair treatment, this is not a problem at all.
With the amount of capital of the first capital, it will be treated most fairly in any country.
As for the wishes of his subordinate, Robert John, this is just too puzzling.
"Oh. Yes, the John family used to be a family of earls in the Victorian era, but now, he is only left with the title of honorary knight. And he always wanted to restore the honor of the John family. ”
“......”
“......”
“......”
The sunset slanted in the west.
Shen Jiannan and his entourage shook hands with John Major and others, got into the car and left the Navy Building.
Everything went smoothly.
As a basis for cooperation, the Cabinet decided that a more accommodative monetary policy will be implemented in the near future, while Capital One, as well as Geman and Kamandi, will need to close a portion of their short positions.
This is a goal that is beneficial to both parties.
A looser monetary policy could stimulate the UK economy, and Capital One, as well as the positions held by German and Carmandi, could be liquidated in the market.
Of course, from an objective point of view, this is a more favorable first step for the UK.
So Yulia Sidorov has been very puzzled.
"Shen. We obviously have the advantage, why do we do this? With the size of our positions and the fear of the pound in the market, we could have made more profits. ”
I'm a hanger.
The UK's departure from the European Community is a right choice, and with the depreciation of the pound, the UK economy will recover very quickly, so if we don't run away now, we won't have a chance in the future.
Now, we can take advantage of the panic of the British to ship and sell it to the British, and by the way, monopolize a little industrial technology and bring it back to be re-issued.
That's not the way to go.
Shen Jiannan thought about it for a moment before he spoke.
"It's just a few words, actually. ”
"What?"
"The extremes of things must be reversed, and the extremes will flourish and decline. ”
The meaning of these two idioms can be understood by Chinese people as soon as they hear it.
But for Qina Kanovski and Yulia Sidorov, they can understand every word Shen Jiannan says, but after these words form an idiom, they don't understand it at all.
A feeling of being crushed by someone in terms of IQ made the two of them not know how to answer at all, so they could only look at Shen Jiannan blankly, waiting for him to continue to explain.
"The first point is that no one can determine the price of a country's currency. Although we hold a large amount of pounds, we are still a drop in the bucket of the pound's monetary aggregate in trillions. Right?"
"And the reason why we were able to hit the pound to this price is because we have the largest position. ”
“.......”
“.......”
"Don't understand?"
"Shen. If you sell it again, I will let you taste what it means to be a good thing. ”
"Let's put it another way, why would Wall Street snipe the pound and the lira with us?"
“......”
"That's right, they don't need the pound to be devalued, but they need Britain to withdraw from the European Community and use Britain to clamp down on the unification of European currencies. ”
And now, that purpose has been achieved. ”
"But if a Britain that is too weak can use it to clamp down on the unity of the European currency? It is not in the interests of the Americans that the pound continues to depreciate. ”
"What does this have to do with the fact that we have too much of a position in the pound?"
"Quite simply, we have too much market share for Wall Street to close its position in the pound, so we have to do that. Otherwise, it will be us who will soon be unlucky. ”
“......”
