Chapter 381: Defending Itley
The United Kingdom announced that it would abandon the maintenance of the pound exchange rate, cancel the previous two interest rate hikes and withdraw from the European exchange rate regime. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
This is news that shocked the world, and the Wall Street financial channel commented on it: This is a feat of Genesis, because before that, people only thought that the so-called hedge fund was just a trick to deceive children, but when this trick to deceive children defeated the Bank of England, people suddenly realized that hedge funds can bring huge returns under long investment.
However, what is ironic is that hedge funds initially reduced risks and stable returns through long investment, because when people buy stocks up and down, then no matter how the stock will develop in the future, investors can make money on their investment. So now, when Joros shows the world another way to play hedge funds, the future is likely to be the golden development period of hedge funds.
Compared with the financial newspapers, the New York Times commented from another aspect: The scene of Britain's accession to the European exchange rate system in October last year is still vivid, but now it is only half a year, and they are about to be kicked out of this system.
In many cases, it only takes an anthill to destroy a seemingly impregnable levee, and Joros and his Quantum Fund found this anthill and defeated the Bank of England.
However, they also opened a Pandora's cartridge because Joros proved to the world with his actions that it is completely feasible to destroy a country's economy by financial means, so after Britain, God knows which country Joros and his speculative partners will attack, and more importantly, no country can prevent this.
Finally, there is the commentary of London Finance, which points the finger at Europe: this is the failure of Great Britain, but it also shows the failure of the entire European exchange rate system, because the European exchange rate system is a union system in which all European members come together, but when the pound is facing the frenzied sell-off of speculators, the whole of Europe is just sleeping in bed, and the pound has paid the price for its foolish trust in Europe.
We have reason to believe that the failure of the British pound is only the beginning of the collapse of the European exchange rate system, and then under the impact of international hot money, the protection of the British pound is lost, and the European exchange rate system will only suffer a greater impact!
It is not difficult to see from the reports of Wall Street and London media that the media around the world will be guided by the depreciation of the pound and the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European exchange rate regime on the situation in the world, or whether the hedge funds will be confident in which country they will continue to attack after the completion of the attack on the pound.
But only the media in Gen Michian noticed the impact of the pound's depreciation on Big Wood Bank, and directly commented that without the support of the Bank of England, Big Wood Bank would face a more difficult situation.
Fortunately, all the public opinion is still more focused on the international aspect, so the stock of Big Wood Bank fell by only four percentage points, and of course this result is also related to the fact that Martin has already got what he wants, so he did not continue to run on Big Wood Bank.
When the United States and the entire international public opinion were in an uproar because of the pound sterling, Itley, as the source of everything, was not so calm.
On the second day of the pound's withdrawal from the European exchange rate system, Zhou Ming and George came to the Eitley Conference Center, which is a landmark building in the center of Eitley, a historic skyscraper, Zhou Ming and George went straight to the small conference room on the 20th floor, pushed open the door of the conference room, and there were already people sitting here.
When they saw Zhou Ming and George coming in, they all subconsciously stood up, but then Zhou Ming waved his hand at them and took the lead in sitting down, and these people all went back.
If there is media here, they must be very surprised when they see this scene, because sitting here are the mayor of Eitley, Martin, and the heads of the three major automobile families, plus George of the Big Wood family, it can be said that they are all the GDP of Eitley.
But now it is such a group of people standing at the top of the Pyramid of Itley, but they all regard Zhou Ming as the center, and when Zhou Ming sits down, they sit.
Everyone sat down Zhou Ming immediately said: "The people who should come have arrived, so let me say it, with the depreciation of the pound and the withdrawal of Britain from the European exchange rate system, it has directly led to the predicament of the Big Wood family, and the investment industry of the Big Wood family is all over the various industries of Eitley, and the fall of such a family will inevitably attract a lot of hungry wolves." ”
"As far as I know, Chicago in the west and Cleveland in the east are eyeing the Big Wood family's property, which if it had been a month ago, it wouldn't have been a problem for the Big Wood family, but now it's a big headache. ”
Zhou Ming took out a document as he spoke: "Just yesterday, the Cleveland consortium had already started negotiations to acquire the Field Steel Company, and now it has more than 20 percent of the shares; while the Chicago consortium has also acquired more than 40 percent of the shares of the Green Rubber Company; as for the consortium of Rockefeller and Morgan, it has already attacked the George Trust and the Leysin Insurance Company." ”
"I don't know what you think about these things, but I do see one word, cold lips and teeth. Zhou Ming continued, "Maybe these companies don't sound like they have anything to do with you, but their steel, their rubber and their funds are all you have always needed, and now that you have lost these companies, it is difficult to guarantee that these consortia will not use these companies to jam your throat in the future." ”
"You might as well think about it, in the future, you want to produce automobiles, but they have raised the price of steel and rubber, can you still maintain your current profits? What if these consortia use this point to make more excessive demands on you? Will you agree or can only agree?" Zhou Ming asked.
With Zhou Ming's words, these people all lowered their heads, they all understood every word of Zhou Ming, in fact, this was the most important reason why they gathered here today.
Being able to bring down the Big Wood family is of course what they want to do the most, but this is also on the premise of being able to get the Big Wood family industry, after all, murder and adultery. Wives and daughters are always the most robbers, on the contrary, if they finally kill the Big Wood family, but let others pick up the cheap, they will definitely not do it.
Martin and the three major car families glanced at each other, and finally Martin stood up and said: "Mr. Zhou Ming, we can understand what you said, and we also don't want those bastards to share our Itley's wealth, but we really can't help it now!"
With Martin taking the lead, Richard, the chairman of the Tefal Automobile Company and the patriarch of the Tefal family, also said: "Mr. Mayor is right, our Eitley was originally in a weak financial aspect, and we have to take advantage of the capital of other eastern consortia for a long time, and now Big Wood Bank is in trouble, and we can't resist the impact of those foreign capital, just like the pound, not to mention that those companies are fundamentally colluded with foreign capital." ”
The other two major auto companies also said: "Yes, we want to control the situation before those foreign capital, but we don't have that much money, and we don't know where those foreign capital will start, what companies they want to buy, and we can't come up with a solution." ”
"That's why I'm buying 35 percent of Big Wood Bank, hoping to stabilize Big Wood Bank's decline, and why it's 35 percent because I can only come up with so much money now. ”
Zhou Ming made a joke, and he continued: "Since you all said that those foreign capitals are menacing, not only their funds completely crush you, but also their entry angles are very tricky, so that you can't guard against it, then we just give up, they give them what they want, and we take the initiative to withdraw from the city of Itley, anyway, we have no obligation to defend Itley." ”
Hearing Zhou Ming's words, Martin and the three major automobile company families were shocked at that time, because they couldn't imagine that Zhou Ming would finally say such a solution.
At first, Martin thought that Zhou Ming was joking, and it wasn't until Zhou Ming repeated it again very seriously that they realized that Zhou Ming was really serious, but the question was why Zhou Ming said this at this time?
Thinking of this, Martin reminded Zhou Ming a little angrily: "I think it is necessary for me to say that Mr. Zhou Ming, the reason why you can get 35% of the shares of Big Wood Bank is because of the help of me and the three major automobile families, and you can't abandon us at this time." ”
The three major automobile families also echoed my words: "Mr. Zhou Ming, you have to be moral! Since we have helped you, you have to help us, and if you want to abandon us now, we will definitely not let you go!"
Zhou Ming smiled: "Why do you think I'm crossing the river and demolishing the bridge? After I get my interests, I won't care about you? Then why don't you think about it without using your brains, if that's the case, then I'm afraid I won't have any reason to appear here today, isn't it good to leave Itley and go back to San Francisco directly?"
A word woke up the people in the dream, Zhou Ming's words made them suddenly understand, indeed if Zhou Ming really wanted to leave alone, then just leave, why bother to participate in this meeting?
Zhou Ming looked around, and saw that everyone was still at a loss, so he shook his head helplessly and continued: "With your IQ, it's really hard for me to imagine how you succeeded the family, I'm afraid this is the reason why Yatley has three major automobile companies and surrounding accessories and cars, and has become a large industrial cluster in the middle of the United States, but has never been able to develop a competitive consortium, even Chicago, which sells corn and tractors, is ten times stronger than you!"
Regardless of Martin or the other three major automobile company families, it is certainly not the mentally retarded who can sit in their position, and there are many reasons why Yatley has not been able to produce a strong consortium, but today they are indeed worried about the situation of Yatley, so their brains will be a little insufficient.
Zhou Ming was helpless, so he could only tell them directly: "My method is another way to guard, which is to let them in first." ”
