Chapter Twenty-Seven: Mental Arithmetic of Horror

From Zhao Jiangchuan's point of view.

It is clear what the situation is facing in Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries.

Success is also foreign exchange, and defeat is also foreign exchange.

Driven by countless foreign investment, the economy of these Southeast Asian countries has developed rapidly.

Money is a person's blood.

If it is used in the country, it makes the same sense.

When capital flows in, it is blood pumping.

The diseases are covered up under the abundance of blood and qi, and he looks very healthy.

But when the inflow of capital becomes the outflow of capital, the blood transfusion becomes a blood draw, and if there is not enough blood to replenish, all those old diseases will be highlighted.

When those lesions accumulate to a certain extent, it can cause a country to collapse in an instant.

It's a dead end with no solution.

According to statistics, in 1996, the proportion of international capital in GDP in the Republic of Korea, Indonesia and Malaysia reached about 5%, 6% and 7% respectively.

In Thailand, the proportion was already over 14% in 1994.

According to the International Monetary Fund, net international private inflows to five Asian countries, including Thailand, the Philippines, Malaysia, South Korea, and Indonesia, increased from $24.9 billion in 1990 to $35.1 billion in 1994.

In 1995 and 1996, this figure rose further to $62.9 billion and $72.9 billion.

However, the most direct result of the large-scale entry of international liquid capital into Asia, which has opened its capital market to the outside world, is not the prosperity of the real economy, but the loose monetary policy and rising asset prices in Asia.

The way in which international capital enters Asia relies heavily on short-term borrowing.

Borrowing large amounts of money from Asian banks and investing these funds in the securities market and real estate market for capital profit-seeking.

By the end of 1993, the securities markets of emerging East Asian countries accounted for 12 per cent of the world's total, totalling about $1 trillion.

Less than a decade ago, Asia's emerging equity markets accounted for just 4% of the world's total.

In the nineties, much of the international investment that flowed into Asia went directly into the securities market.

According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), equity financing in emerging and developing economies in Asia amounted to $11 billion in 1996.

In other words, the whole of Asia in the 90s became a new battlefield for capital profit-seeking, and the core part of this battlefield was East Asia and Southeast Asia.

The reasons for attracting international capital to Asia later looked ridiculous.

The so-called Asian miracle.

Since the 1960s, the "Asian Tigers" represented by Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the Republic of Korea have developed rapidly, and in a very short period of time they have leapt from relatively poor regions to moderately developed economies.

Since then, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines and Indonesia have achieved significant economic growth in the early 90s due to the opening up of capital markets, and are known as the "Asian Tigers".

In particular, in the 80s and 90s, when the growth rate of the traditional market economy in Western Europe and the United States was generally slowing down, Asian countries maintained relatively high economic growth.

From the perspective of economic theory, whether it is an individual or a country, the essence of wealth is an exchange process.

The academic name is.

"Washington Consensus".

The cornerstone of economic prosperity is the further opening of the market, the liberalization of trade, the liberalization of interest rates, the protection of private property, and the relaxation of excessive government intervention in the economy.

So, under the influence of the Washington Consensus.

Expressions such as "more open markets" and "freer economies" are applied to the interpretation of Asian markets.

Governments and financial institutions' understanding of the "Asian miracle" has also fallen into this self-interpretation.

Asia's success stems from the freedom and openness of its markets, and as long as it continues to open its markets, it will continue to be successful.

Such arguments were in vogue at the time, and this kind of optimism, which omits many details, poses the greatest potential risk.

The essence of capital is to chase profits.

Just like a leech, when it does not absorb enough nutrients, it will detach from the adsorbed organism.

With the injection of foreign capital, the real estate industry and financial industry in Southeast Asia have risen wildly.

But Thailand is not a country that is located in the high-end industrial chain.

The types of its export commodities are basically low-end products such as jewelry, clothing, and agricultural and sideline products.

The competitiveness of these commodities in the international market weakened in the mid-nineties, which weakened Thailand's economic competitiveness and led to a growing trade deficit.

The continuous increase in the balance of payments deficit is actually an important reason for the high overall debt ratio of Thailand mentioned above.

In terms of economic and technological strength, Thailand is obviously not as good as Singapore, South Korea and other places, but in terms of the extent of the bubble.

Thailand, where international tourism has entered in large quantities, is higher than that of Indonesia and Malaysia, which are also located in Southeast Asia.

An already uncompetitive economy is now struggling with economic growth.

In every respect, Thailand is one of the least resilient countries in Asia to financial risks. It has naturally become the preferred target for "financial snipers" such as international financial capital.

In the end, international capital chose to attack "the Thai economy by shorting the Thai baht, the currency in circulation."

Earn the exchange rate difference in the form of buying baht and repaying baht.

As a hanger, Zhao Jiangchuan knows this very well.

Under the general trend of exploding in Southeast Asia, if you don't take the opportunity to make a profit, it won't be Zhao Jiangchuan.

in the office.

Zhao Jiangchuan asked the little secretary to set up three blackboards.

He grabbed the chalk and scribbled quickly on the blackboard.

Under the series of various numbers, the terrifying mental arithmetic ability directly stunned Ouyang Lan and Li Xiaoyue.

If the two of them didn't see it clearly, Zhao Jiangchuan would erase all the things he had written before and write again.

Second daughter, you look at me, I'll look at you.

I don't understand the meaning of those numbers written by Zhao Jiangchuan at all.

But they know that the current Zhao Jiangchuan must be doing something big.

Every time, as long as Zhao Jiangchuan is too busy to pay attention to them, he must be plotting something.

It's a pity that the two don't know what Zhao Jiangchuan is plotting, otherwise they will definitely be killed alive.

Suddenly, Zhao Jiangchuan suddenly shouted after writing down a long list of numbers.

"Xiaoyue, how much money do we still have on our books. ”

Li Xiaoyue was able to be the director of the comprehensive department, not because of Zhao Jiangchuan's favor.

In terms of work, she gives full play to the meticulousness of Jiangnan women.

As soon as Zhao Jiangchuan spoke, Li Xiaoyue answered fluently without taking the work record.

"Previously, we had $2.13 billion in available funds, but we paid 200 million to Standard Chartered.

Of the $140 million invested in the Hong Kong stock market, there is still $1.79 billion left. If you subtract another $400 million in risk reserves, you'll be left with $1.39 billion. ”

$1.39 billion.

That's a lot of money.

But when Zhao Jiangchuan heard this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey, I'm so poor, why is there so much money. ”

“……”

In Zhao Jiangchuan's sigh, Li Xiaoyue and Ouyang Lan glanced at each other.

The look seemed to ask.

Is our boss pretending?

Zhao Jiangchuan ignored the eyebrows of the two.

He threw the chalk tip in his hand, and his ass collapsed on the couch with some deflatedness.

Gao Qiang's mental arithmetic consumed a lot of his mental energy.

But in the end, it requires a lot of money.

With the less than 1.4 billion that he can currently use in his hands, it is not even a drop in the bucket in a few countries.

"With this amount of money, it seems a little difficult to break up Southeast Asia!"

On the sofa, Zhao Jiangchuan complained to himself.

Ouyang Lan sat down very obediently, she knew that Zhao Jiangchuan was very tired now.

It's been a whole week, and Zhao Jiangchuan has been calculating every day.

That huge number, just looking at Ouyang Lan made me feel like vomiting, with a high-intensity brain operation, Zhao Jiangchuan's consumption can be imagined.

Sure enough, as soon as Ouyang Lan sat down on the sofa, Zhao Jiangchuan tilted his head to the thighs.

Ouyang Lan's legs are very elastic and full of youthful vitality.

On the thighs wearing only stockings and short skirts, you can feel the delicate warmth and tightness.

However, Zhao Jiangchuan did not savor it as usual.

As soon as he rested his head on those thighs, he habitually closed his eyes.

After several days of continuous calculation, even if it is as strong as Zhao Jiangchuan, he also feels a kind of fatigue.

The kind of exertion, which is different from manual labor, makes him just want to get a good night's sleep.

Suddenly, Zhao Jiangchuan felt a heat in his mouth.

He didn't open his eyes, but he could still guess that it was Ouyang Lan's red lips.

Then, the soft red lips left, and Zhao Jiangchuan felt a pair of soft lids on his temples.

Ouyang Lan gently pressed on both sides of Zhao Jiangchuan's temples, and the tiredness on that face made her feel a little heartache.

She could feel Zhao Jiangchuan's exhaustion.

If it was usual, Zhao Jiangchuan would have started to break it by now, but now, he seems to be able to sleep at any time.

The little secretary blamed herself a little, she blamed herself for her incompetence.

If she can help Zhao Jiangchuan, then Zhao Jiangchuan can reduce a lot of burden.

Ouyang Lan was a little envious of Li Xiaoyue, at least, Li Xiaoyue could help Zhao Jiangchuan with many things.

"Big villain, am I just a useless vase, you work so hard, I can't do anything. ”

Zhao Jiangchuan didn't open his eyes.

He smiled softly.

"How can it be useless, my favorite thing to use is you. ”

"I hate it, people are talking to you about business. ”

"I'm telling you the whole thing. ”

"If you do it again, I'll ignore you. ”

"Stupid, didn't you listen to our old saying, a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, only a woman who doesn't understand anything is a good woman, I like you like this, just looking at it makes me feel comfortable. ”

"Flim Flam. ”

"Hey, little money fan, you have said good or bad, what do I say. ”

"Hmph. ”

“…….”

"Big badass. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Money can't be earned, can you not be so tired......"

"Distressed?"

"Hmm!"

"I was distressed, you comforted me that night, and I won't be tired as soon as you comfort me. ”

"You don't come. ”

"If you don't, I'll be looking for Xiaoyue. ”

"Hmph. ”

"Little money fan, I plan to go to the United States in two days. ”

"Ah, why go to the United States. ”

"I'm going to go and buy something from the Americans. ”

"Then when are you coming back. ”

"Not necessarily, probably going straight to Thailand. ”

“…….”

"I'm thinking about whether to take you with me or bring Xiaoyue over. ”

"Ahh

In the room, Ouyang Lan stammered.

Li Xiaoyue, who was sorting out the documents, also had her ears pricked up.

Zhao Jiangchuan, who was still with his eyes closed, seemed to have not noticed the difference between the two, and he deliberately made a bad way.

"You two who want to go. ”

“…….”

No one said a word.

There is only one place, and naturally everyone wants to go.

United States.

It is a beautiful country in their hearts, and for Li Xiaoyue and Ouyang Lan, who have never been abroad, everyone wants to go to that foreign country to see.

The most important thing is that you can also be by your man's side.

For a woman, there will be no more happiness to be able to travel the world with her man.

But this kind of thing is not easy to fight.

In a fight, there will definitely be a gap between the two.

But no one wants to let it.

After all, everyone has selfish intentions.

Even if it's closer than sisters, this kind of thing doesn't want to be left behind.

Zhao Jiangchuan's treacherous plan succeeded.

He continued.

"I'd like to think about which of you would be better to take, well......."

was teased by Zhao Jiangchuan, and the hearts of the two women were raised to their throats.

Being chosen means that you can go out into the romantic world with your own man.

But once he was left behind, he could only stay alone in the boudoir and watch the other two people roam the world.

This guy, why is it so bad.

The two of them have been in the same breath for a long time, and they can't help but hate each other.

It's just that in the end, the two of them couldn't help but straighten their ears and wait for the verdict that could be sweet or hurtful.

And then.....

"Whew...."

There was a slight snoring.

Zhao Jiangchuan fell asleep.
