Chapter 262: Ransacking
The power of the earthquake began to spread from the Lu Xun Memorial Hall, and many buildings near the epicenter collapsed and collapsed, scattering bricks and stones, and flying dust.
Buildings farther away from the epicenter were also damaged to varying degrees, with cracks and tilts......
The surrounding earth was in turmoil, almost boiling. All kinds of small animals fled in terror, and the birds in the sky also looked very frightened.
As for the citizens of Sendai City, especially the teachers and students of Tohoku University, who had evacuated in advance, although they were not injured by the earthquake, they could not calm down for a long time when they saw the power of the earthquake.
Some of the timid ones were even more pale and stiff, obviously frightened by the threat of the shock.
An earthquake comes and goes fast.
The magnitude 6.5 earthquake is not a devastating disaster, but apart from the fact that Tohoku University was more severely damaged, there were not many collapsed buildings in Miyagi Prefecture.
As for the places that have completely fallen into ruins, there are basically only the Lu Xun Memorial Hall and an area of the Medical Department of Northeastern University.
Fortunately, the school of Northeastern University took precautions in advance, although the building was not damaged, but there were no casualties among teachers and students, and some important cultural relics, materials, and equipment were also transferred or specially protected in advance.
At the very least, due to the existence of that mysterious countdown page, the damage caused by this earthquake eruption can be said to be almost the lowest in the history of Japan.
After the earthquake, the teachers and students at Northeastern University finally came to their senses.
"Oh my God! There was an earthquake!"
"Yay! The school building collapsed!"
"It's good to come out early......"
"What the hell is that countdown page, what is it? It's unheard of to predict an earthquake an hour in advance......"
Gradually, everyone turned their attention to the earthquake prediction page, and while picking up their mobile phones, they were talking about it.
"Hey, the page is gone!"
"Really, I'll take a look at ......"
However, people soon discovered that the strange prediction page that could not be avoided just now was nowhere to be found, and there was no trace of it.
And the Internet, which seemed to have suddenly failed, is now completely back to normal, whether it is a web page or a game, it is as normal as ever.
Such a bizarre thing immediately ignited the fire of gossip in people's hearts.
Now that the Internet is back to normal, almost all the citizens of Sendai City are posting their messages on the Internet as soon as possible.
The incident was already full of gimmicks, and now it has been spread again and again, and as a result, an earthquake with a magnitude of only 6.5 has attracted attention on the Internet, which has been compared with the Fukushima earthquake, and has quickly spread all over the Internet.
Almost all countries with developed networks have reported on the earthquake in Miyagi Prefecture at length.
Especially after learning of the collapse of the Lu Xun Memorial Hall, the melon-eating masses in China became even more lively.
Many people finally knew that the place where Lu Xun sought medical treatment was Miyagi County......
While most people were chatting disappetly about the Miyagi Prefecture earthquake and the gossip on the earthquake prediction page, a large-scale "looting" was taking place in Japan's financial markets.
Perhaps because of the bizarre nature of the earthquake, the reaction of the yen and some companies was much stronger.
An hour after the earthquake in Miyagi Prefecture, the yen soared by 0.5%, and then continued to rise, rising by 1.2% before finally leveling off!
A 1.2% increase in one day doesn't seem like a big deal at first glance.
But a little math shows that this number is actually quite terrifying. If this increase is maintained, the yen will be able to double in just two months.
If it really doubles in two months, Japan is estimated to be dying......
In the past, as soon as the earthquake came, the yen boom quickly returned to normal, and because of the suddenness of the incident, speculators could not make much money.
But Lin Han and the several Chinese giants behind him are different, they came prepared this time!
The upper limit of foreign exchange leverage in Japan is 25 times, that is, you can use up to 25 times of your existing funds for foreign exchange operations.
Lin Han has almost $4 billion on hand, and after adding leverage, it is close to $100 billion, a 1.2% increase, and it is a net profit of $1.2 billion!
In addition to the foreign exchange market, the stock market also had a series of reactions to the earthquake.
For example, due to the damage caused by the earthquake to the building, building materials and construction companies will inevitably do brisk business in the next period of time, and the stock price will naturally rise.
However, companies within the scope of the earthquake will have their stock prices fall due to the occurrence of the earthquake.
As early as when they first arrived in Japan, the employees of Vientiane had already conducted a lot of research in this regard.
I already know which company may rise and which company may fall, and I just wait for the earthquake to make a fortune.
Counting the share of the stock market, the occurrence of the Miyagi County earthquake in a very short period of time has created a net profit of as high as 2 billion US dollars, equivalent to more than 13 billion yuan!
This efficiency is faster than printing money!
With the recent explosion of funds, not to mention private jets, company expansion, and laboratory investment, even the "eighth power" is already trivial.
In addition to Vientiane, several large domestic enterprises with good relations with him, such as Ali, Huawei, and Rice, which Lin Han hooked up with in advance, also made a lot of money because of the Miyagi County earthquake.
Although no one knows exactly how much Chinese companies have made from the Japanese financial market this time, it is certain that it will definitely be more than 10 billion US dollars, and may even reach 100 billion.
In addition, nine times out of ten, the Chinese government has also secretly intervened, but it should be relatively restrained, after all, the interests between countries are complicated, and it may not be a good thing to be too ruthless.
It is conceivable that Japan's financial environment will inevitably deteriorate in the coming period.
The yen's volatility will be more frequent, and it is more likely to go against the guidance of the Abe government and rise unexpectedly.
The rise of the yen means that foreign companies are more willing to exchange their goods for yen, which means that it will be easier for Japan to import foreign goods.
Japan is a typical exporting country, and it is more convenient to import, that is, it is more troublesome to export. As soon as exports become troublesome, products cannot be sold, and economic downturn is inevitable.
Therefore, the core of Abe's economic policy is to devalue the yen and expand exports.
Now as soon as the earthquake in Miyagi County comes out, especially a bunch of Chinese enterprises are following closely behind, and the situation is out of control.
The general election is about to begin, and the result is so oolong, I don't know what kind of mood Comrade Abe is in right now.
Of course, Lin Han has temporarily lost interest in the political situation in Japan, and even the two billion dollars he has just received have not paid attention to for a while.
For no other reason, his land authority has been upgraded!
