192 Layout of the financial crisis
No matter how the outside world moves, Li Feng accompanied his family to take a good stroll in Hong Kong, an international financial center. In the past two days, Li Feng and his entourage, no matter how lively the outside world was, accompanied by security personnel, had a good walk around the Pearl of the Orient in front of them, and they were in a good mood.
"Boss, you're finally here. ”
On the third day, Li Feng came to the Asian headquarters with two assistants and a team of security personnel, and Li Shanquan immediately greeted him eagerly.
"Shanquan, thank you for your hard work, let's go, let's go to the office to talk. Let the security personnel stand at the door of the office, Li Feng took Kuwa and Lin Xilei into the president's office under the leadership of Li Shanquan.
The whole office is also 5 or 6 ten square meters, overlooking the Central business district and Victoria Harbour, and the environment is not bad.
"BOSS, the financial market in Asia is really chaotic now, according to our estimates, the probability of a financial crisis in Asia has reached 60% or even higher, especially in Southeast Asia, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand.
Now that the basic goal has been achieved, the company's $3 billion in funds have begun to deploy the entire Southeast Asian market through various offshore companies and offshore funds. ”
Yes, Li Feng is really a fool if he has no idea about this financial crisis, with Li Shanquan's accurate prediction of the financial crisis, and the help of a group of professionals with rich practical experience on Wall Street, plus a little bit of foresight, there is no reason why he can't make money.
……
Yes, Li Feng thinks of his own little bit of foresight, although this financial crisis was very lively in his previous life, Li Feng only knew that it started in Thailand.
Memories of his previous life tell Li Feng that it seems that within the second day after the return to the motherland, Thailand abandoned the fixed exchange rate system of its own currency and changed it to a floating exchange rate system, which led to the continuous depreciation of the Thai baht, and finally triggered a financial turmoil that shook the whole of Asia.
With the ability to know exactly when Thailand will abandon the fixed exchange rate system, and under the operation of a group of financial experts such as Li Shanquan and Bill Weilbe, Li Feng can already imagine that he will definitely be able to make a lot of money.
Another memory, for example, after the first round of financial turmoil involving the whole of Asia in '97, the second round of the storm began to take place in Indonesia at the beginning of '98.
With the great recession in Indonesia, the currencies of Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Southeast Asia have been repeatedly depreciated, which has affected Japan, and the financial turmoil has been further intensified.
The final stage is Russia, which is a polar bear that borders Asian countries and ends up getting involved, resulting in heavy losses.
Although Li Feng only knows a rough idea, there is such a general process, coupled with the help of financial geniuses such as Li Shanquan and Bill Weilibei, the profit will definitely be unexpectedly good, and Li Feng is full of confidence in this.
To be honest, there was a lack of funds for the development of their own enterprises, and there was a lack of funds for enterprise expansion and mergers.
This is also the reason why Li Feng is now drawing funds from major companies even when they are facing a lack of funds for development, and at the same time, Li Feng also told the heads of major companies that if the company is really short of funds, it can temporarily find a bank to borrow.
……
"Shanquan, tell me about the possible financial crisis, and let me know about it. ”
"Understand, boss, in fact, it is a matter of time before a financial crisis occurs in Asia, which is unavoidable, and this is a cyclical problem. If you really want to talk about the origin, that's a long time.
Beginning with the post-war period, Japan was the first country in post-war Asia to industrialize, and naturally, with the support of the United States, intensive American companies moved to Japan throughout the 80s, which led to Japan's rapid economic growth.
However, with the signing of the Plaza Agreement, the United States finally harvested Japan's economy, which also made Japan understand that the upper technical standards are in the hands of the United States, and the wealth in their hands will become someone else's in a blink of an eye.
Unfortunately, just as Japan accepted the United States, there are also a lot of risks on the side of the Asian Tigers, and in my opinion, it is time to harvest, so to speak, the transfer of low-level manufacturing from the United States and Japan to Southeast Asia after the war has laid the groundwork for this financial crisis.
The markets in Southeast Asia are basically mainly inherited from Japan's industries, and since 95 years Japan has put forward a strategy to revitalize the economy, the yen has begun to depreciate, and most of the national currencies in Southeast Asia are pegged to the US dollar, which has led to the appreciation of the national currency with the US dollar.
The final result has led to a sharp increase in imports, worsened the current account, and brought the crisis closer again.
Nowadays, the world's capital has been aimed at the financial markets of Southeast Asian countries, and now the possibility of a financial crisis has reached 6 or even higher.
Naturally, Wall Street predators are also indispensable, such as quantum funds and other major hedge funds, as well as major investment companies. ”
……
"For the time being, Thailand is the most serious today, most of the tour capital has been mainly in Thailand, although a large amount of travel capital is on the sidelines, but even a small amount of travel capital has made Thailand exhausted.
For example, today's Thai baht has depreciated a lot compared with before, and a lot of assets have been harvested, and a large amount of international travel capital has been recruited with Thai domestic capital in Thailand's financial market.
Now many financial institutions and banks in Thailand have collapsed, Thailand's domestic economy is actually a very serious crisis, but it can hold out for a period of time for the time being, but compared with the huge international travel capital, Thailand's little money will soon be gone, and then it will be time for Thailand to completely disarm and surrender. ”
"In other words, now in Thailand, we can actually participate on a small scale, although we can't make a lot of money, but we can also earn some pocket money?" Li Feng asked with a smile.
"Naturally, it is possible, and now that the depreciation of the Thai baht is actually a foregone conclusion, the Thai government is barely holding on, and the period before it completely disarms and surrenders can also allow us to reap a little benefit. ”
"Okay, professional things are left to professional people, this is what I have always believed in. When will Bill arrive?"
Bill said he'd bring someone over in a week at most, and Bill was very excited and said he didn't want to miss an opportunity like this. ”
Listening to Li Shanquan's relay, Li Feng couldn't help laughing. Think about it, isn't the process of such a financial crisis the time for these Wall Street traders to show their skills, and it may be that in the face of the financial crisis in Southeast Asia or even the whole of Asia, a trader will not encounter it a few times in his life, and the opportunity is rare.
"Okay, I'll just wait for your good news, I mainly need to deal with Old Man Zhang's affairs at the moment. ”
……
"BOSS, I don't understand why you want to get involved in Old Man Zhang's affairs, it's not good for us. ”
"Hehe, Shanquan, you should understand the Huaxia government and the minds of the Chinese, if I can promote the relationship between Mr. Zhang and Huaxia, it is a good choice for me, I value the market in the mainland of China very much, and now I don't want to let go of such an opportunity."
I believe that now I am on the list of the Chinese mainland government, which is very crucial for my future layout of the world.
You think, if China becomes the world's second largest economy in the future, then I will have the first and second largest economic markets, and I will be able to make myself invincible.
Another one, it can be regarded as my own respect for Mr. Zhang. ”
After listening to Li Feng's words, Li Shanquan was speechless, especially when it came to the fact that China has become the second largest economy, Li Shanquan can't guarantee or even be optimistic. After all, the gap between today's Huaxia and the previous ones is still very obvious. However, I admired Li Feng's vision very much, and I could only say that I would take a look.
As for paying a little respect to Mr. Zhang, after all, he is a famous figure in the history books, and it is okay to bring a little respect, but I don't know what to think about the inexplicable good impression of my American boss towards Huaxia.
