Chapter 0425 Money Blown by the Wind

Seeing that Qiao Tianyu couldn't wait to know the news about the big consortium in Southeast Asia, Michelle walked into the study with a stack of materials and sat on the sofa opposite Qiao Tianyu.

"Joe, as you predicted before, those four big Southeast Asian conglomerates are all local rich and rival big chaebols, and they are indeed the key surveillance targets of the KGB's Southeast Asian branch. Michelle explained.

"Therefore, all the data and information about the big Southeast Asian conglomerates, the KGB branch in Southeast Asia is very complete, and they quickly passed on the information we wanted. ”

"But Joe, you also have to be mentally prepared, just now I took a closer look at the asset wealth data of those big Southeast Asian conglomerates, I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic!"

"Not optimistic?" Qiao Tianyu chuckled in his heart after hearing this, and his brows furrowed, "What's the situation?"

"Joe, look at the data. Michelle explained while handing the information in her hand to Qiao Tianyu.

"Joe, according to the information you just provided, the four big conglomerates in Southeast Asia are the Songkhan family and the Mong Chao family in Thailand, the Te Cha family in Malaysia, and the Bindi family in Indonesia. ”

"These four big conglomerates are absolutely giants in their respective countries in Southeast Asia, and they all monopolize the economic lifeline of one or more areas in their respective countries. ”

"But then again, Southeast Asian countries are generally small in size due to their land area and geographical location, and they simply cannot be compared with the traditional Western economic powers. ”

"Even Thailand, the most economically developed country in Southeast Asia, had an annual GDP of only about $100 billion in the late 80s and early 90s, while the economies of Malaysia and Indonesia were even smaller. ”

"Therefore, the four large Southeast Asian conglomerates are limited by their own economic aggregates, and their own economic strength is not as strong as imagined. ”

"According to the statistics of the KGB branch in Southeast Asia, in the late eighties, the total assets of the Thai Songkhon family and the Mong Chao family were $18.8 billion and $20.3 billion, respectively. ”

"The total assets of the Malaysian Techa family are about $15 billion, while the total assets of the Indonesian Binti family are about $17.3 billion. ”

"In other words, in the late eighties, the total assets of the four major Southeast Asian conglomerates combined were only $71.4 billion!"

"$71.4 billion?" Hearing this, Qiao Tianyu's mouth couldn't close in shock, and he asked in disbelief.

"No, according to the U.S. Treasury market trading data, in the late eighties, the four largest conglomerates in Southeast Asia bought up to $700 billion in 'diplomatic bonds' in just two months. ”

"If the big four Southeast Asian conglomerates only have $71.4 billion in total assets in their hands, where do they get the $700 billion they buy 'diplomatic bonds'?"

"Here's the problem!" Michelle saw that Qiao Tianyu had discovered the problem, and nodded vigorously.

"Logically speaking, it is impossible for the four major Southeast Asian conglomerates to have $700 billion to buy 'diplomatic bonds', but the reality is that they did come up with that much money. ”

"After thinking about it, I think the only reasonable explanation at the moment is that the $700 billion that the four major consortiums in Southeast Asia bought 'diplomatic bonds' is not their money at all, but the money lent to them by others!"

"The money that others lent them?" Qiao Tianyu thought for a moment before nodding seriously.

"Judging from the subsequent reaction of the four major Southeast Asian consortia to the purchase of 'diplomatic bonds', this assumption is very likely. ”

"Otherwise, with their total net worth of $71.4 billion, how could they leave the $700 billion 'diplomatic bonds' alone for five or six years?!"

"Yes, yes, that's what I thought too!" Michelle said with a quick nod.

"If our inference is correct, it is very likely that the four major consortia in Southeast Asia are just helping people stand on the platform, and there must be big bosses behind them who are manipulating this matter behind the scenes. ”

"The big boss behind the big four conglomerates in Southeast Asia is the one who lent them $700 billion to buy 'diplomatic bonds', but as for who the big boss behind them is, I don't know. ”

"If the truth is really as you and I expected, then why is it difficult to find out the big bosses behind the four major consortia in Southeast Asia?" Qiao Tianyu had a sinister smile on his face.

"Joe, do you have any good ideas?" Michelle asked in surprise when she saw Qiao Tianyu so confident.

"Money!" Qiao Tianyu said in a word, "Michelle, didn't you just say that the big boss behind the four major consortia in Southeast Asia is the one who lent them $700 billion to buy 'diplomatic bonds'. ”

"Then we just need to find out who transferred the $700 billion to the four major Southeast Asian consortia at the end of the eighties, don't we know who the big boss behind them is?"

"Besides, 700 billion dollars is not a small amount, and under the economic conditions of the late eighties, it is difficult for the world to see such a huge amount of money transferred in a year, and I believe that the KGB will not turn a blind eye to such important information, right?"

"Yes, yes, that's what it means!" Michelle was woken up by Qiao Tianyu, and she was about to jump up with joy.

"We only need to call up the account records of the four major consortia in Southeast Asia at the end of the eighties, and the four major consortia in Southeast Asia will naturally have nowhere to hide!"

After speaking, Michelle excitedly copied the stack of materials in Qiao Tianyu's hand, and carefully screened them page by page.

However, as time passed minute by minute, Michelle's expression gradually returned from excitement to flattening, and then gradually became anxious.

About a quarter of an hour later, as long as Michelle frowned, she threw the information in her hand aside in frustration, and sighed angrily, "How can this be?!"

"Michelle, what's wrong, didn't you find it?" Qiao Tianyu saw Michelle's reaction, and knew in his heart that it was not good, so he couldn't wait to ask.

"Joe, are we making a mistake, in the account records of the four major families in Southeast Asia in the past ten years, there is no shadow of the $700 billion at all!" Michelle said disappointedly.

"Really?" Qiao Tianyu didn't quite believe this result, so he took the information from Michelle very suspiciously, lowered his head and quickly browsed it.

You must know that Qiao Tianyu, who has been a person in two lives, has read countless accounts, and he naturally reviews the accounts much faster than Michelle, and Qiao Tianyu went through all the accounts in less than three minutes, but the result made Qiao Tianyu even more shocked.
