Chapter 586: Throwing off the burden and picking up the burden
No one in this world is a fool, especially this time Jing Jian is facing a group of experts from the Soviet Union, a superpower, how can they not consider the issue of exchange rate depreciation?
Jing Jian smiled slightly: "Nona, I also feel this problem, because the risk of the exchange rate is mutual. Even if we talk only about the depreciation of the ruble, if I happen to depreciate when I buy goods, I will lose quite a lot, and when I repay the loan, your bank will lose just as much. Isn't that so?"
"Hmm!" Seeing that the expert from the Ministry of Foreign Trade nodded, Nona also nodded, "That's it, so we want a fixed exchange rate." ”
"I think it's still relatively fixed and floating exchange rate, which can avoid risks on both sides as much as possible. Jing Jian smiled and said, "If you sign an agreement, you can add a memorandum about the exchange rate." Indicate the range in which the exchange rate fluctuates, for example, the exchange rate between the dollar and the ruble is between 1:1 and 1:5, and if it rises or falls, it is calculated as the maximum and minimum value. And at any time, it is settled at the current price of the Hong Kong black market. In this way, the possible risks of both parties are within a manageable range. Of course, this is my analogy, and the specific floating range can be discussed at that time. ”
Hearing this, the expert from the Ministry of Foreign Trade nodded again and again. There is no problem at all, it is just a matter of finding a way to increase the range of this floating range by one or two times when the time comes. At this time, no Soviet people with big brains would have imagined that the ruble would depreciate by more than 1:10 in three or five years, right? Unfortunately, in fact, the Soviet Union, which collapsed five years later, had already depreciated the old ruble to a level of 1:6,000.
......
After ending the call, Nona let out a long sigh of relief. She complained coquettishly: "It's really stressful, it's better to let others be responsible, I'm actually just an assistant!"
There was a burst of laughter, and the tolerance for pretty girls was high. And the person in charge present smiled and comforted: "Comrade Nona, you are doing very well." That Chinese will never confide in an old man like me, right? On the one hand, Jing Jian's tastes need to be satisfied, after all, Jing Jian has a nickname in the Western media - China's Hughes, and on the other hand, no one can ignore Nona's background.
Amid the laughter, the person in charge continued to ask, "What do you think?"
A KGB staff member immediately reported: "Something is not good. But because it's not good, it's more credible. However, the specifics need to be determined by intelligence analysis experts. ”
The person in charge nodded: "I also need complete conversation materials, all of which need to be used as a reference." ”
"Yes!"
The person in charge then asked the expert from the Ministry of Foreign Trade: "What do you think?"
The expert hurriedly replied: "In principle, it is feasible and in line with the business rules of Europe and the United States." And we do get a lot of benefits. Of course, Mr. Bramble is very skilled in business, and the comrades in charge of the negotiations should be reminded not to be deceived by his age. At least his borrowing of chickens to lay eggs is admirable. Sorry, I'm looking at it from an appreciative perspective. ”
"Nothing. The person in charge smiled, "I sigh a little, there are quite a few talented people among the Chinese comrades, and there is something to learn from our Soviet cadre system! Okay, is there anything else to add? If not, then I will report to the leading comrades." ”
“......”
......
Jing Jian did not know that his call had been analyzed in detail by the Soviet side. After he hung up, he called William Jr. again, because another country in Eastern Europe had fallen - Romania.
In the drastic changes in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, Romania was a relatively special country. It seems that the change of the old and new governments has been completed overnight.
As recently as 15 December, the Romanian border city of Timișoara was the scene of fierce clashes between police and local residents, with weapons on both sides and causing casualties. At a time when the civil unrest began to spread, President Ceausescu seemed to be quite calm. On December 18, he flew to Iran for a three-day state visit as usual.
On 20 December, however, terrible news broke in Romania: the security forces had committed a "massacre" in Timișoara, killing thousands of people and arresting or missing tens of thousands. As soon as Ceausescu returned from Tehran that evening, he made a speech on television, in which he harshly denounced the Timișoara rebellion as "organized by imperialist and revanchist groups and foreign spy agencies" and an attempt to "prevent the development of socialism and regress the country to foreign rule." ”
But by this time the crowd had no intention of listening to his speech. On this very day, anti-Ceausescu demonstrations broke out in Bucharest. People shouted: "No Ceausescu!" "No freedom!" "No bread!" demonstrators stormed bookstores and burned Ceausescu's writings.
At the same time, the Romanian "National Salvation Front" headed by Iliescu was formed, announcing the dissolution of all the organs of power in Ceausescu. Immediately afterwards, fierce street battles broke out between the security forces supporting Ceausescu and the troops and masses who opposed him in the capital. On 22 December, the "insurgents" seized radio and television stations and declared Ceausescu "missing". In fact, on the 23rd, Ceausescu and his wife had already been arrested, and just two days later, they were secretly shot.
However, all of a sudden, the National Salvation Front (NRF) government did not know what to do. In addition to piling up the shops with agricultural products and other commodities that had been exported, which attracted the cheers of the masses, what about the most critical economic issue?
So in a hurry, they remembered the example of Poland and Bulgaria, and simply sold the entire theater system and its staff to the Europa League cinema chain like a burden, only asking for $10 million, and the requirements were greatly reduced, and more than 8,600 staff members were not allowed to lay off for five years. Of course, the other lion opened his mouth to be just as vicious, wanting to deposit $15 million in a Swiss account, which was much higher than the public selling price. Overnight, the cinema market in an Eastern European country also fell into the hands of Jing Jian.
Hearing such good news, Jing Jian was quite happy: "Hahaha, William, then promise them." In addition, if they have other demands, they want to sell other state-owned assets at a low price, and they also agree. But we're basically the middleman, and the big head and fat are all left to our friends in the United States, Germany, and Japan, so let's have some soup. We only need the entry of the theater and the White Lotus merchandise, and at most a few more bones. Remember, we still have to keep our reputation. ”
