Chapter 14 Earthquakes and Speculation

On the morning of January 17, Lin Dawei first sent Du Chunhua and Lin Jinyan to the Children's Palace, and then turned the head of the car and sent Du Qiu to Yunda. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"According to the latest news from Xinhua News Agency, an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.3 on the Richter scale occurred in Kobe, Japan at 5:46 a.m. today, and the specific casualties are unknown......"

Du Qiu leaned over and turned up the volume of the radio, Lin Dawei didn't take it seriously at first, but after listening to it for a while, he suddenly reacted and asked, "Du Qiu, is Kobe where you lived before returning to China?"

"Well, I lived there for three or four years before I went back home. ”

The reason why Du Qiu went to confess his relatives after more than ten days was to wait for this earthquake, because his fabricated abduction experience could only deceive relatives and friends, and could not deceive the vast number of media reporters or government agencies, the so-called geese have left a voice, people have left traces, a person who has lived in Japan for more than ten years, even if it is a smuggler hiding everywhere, it is impossible not to leave clues, and the earthquake can perfectly eliminate these suspicions, the Great Hanshin Earthquake that broke out on January 17, 1995 is considered to be a super disaster that changed the fortunes of Japan, causing more than 6,000 deaths, more than 100,000 houses collapsed, 300,000 people were homeless, and there were a large number of fires after the earthquakeThe entire city was destroyed and not even recovered after 20 years.

If you go to recognize your relatives as soon as you cross over, there is a window period of more than ten days before the earthquake, and if your parents have friends who know each other in Japan, it will bring unpredictable risks, and the night before yesterday, this morning's earthquake, there is only a one-day window period in between, even if someone is in Kobe, there is no way to investigate......

After today, all lies, along with the fictional "ashes and relics of the dumb", will be buried in the rubble with the earthquake and disappear into the dust of history, and no one will ever find the truth again......

"You are really fateful, fortunately you came back early and escaped a catastrophe, the Tangshan earthquake was 7.8 on the Richter scale, killing more than 200,000 people, 7.3 on the Richter scale is not small, there must be a lot of casualties. Lin Dawei asked very considerately as he started the car: "You must have a lot of friends in Kobe, do you want me to take you to the post and telecommunications office?" ”

"Good. ”

In 1995, not to mention Kobe, there were no friends of Du Qiu in the whole of Japan, but he had to do a full set of plays, so he "lived" in a place for three or four years, even if he had no friends, there should be a few acquaintances, and he couldn't be too indifferent, so after he arrived at the post and telecommunications office, he randomly dialed a few phone numbers starting with the Kobe area code, and the first one was dialed by coincidence, which startled him.

On the opposite side was a woman, her voice couldn't hear her age, but her tone was quite calm, Du Qiu bullied Lin Dawei for not understanding Japanese, and on the grounds of the phone line, she chatted with her about the earthquake for a while, and dialed a few more after hanging up, this time there was no problem, all of them couldn't be connected, so she stopped dialing, and said: "Maiko said that the disaster was very serious, many houses in the city had collapsed, and there was a big fire, there was smoke everywhere, and she couldn't get through to her friend's phone, maybe the line was broken, let's call again next time." ”

"What does this Maiko have to do with you, and did you call her on the first call, girlfriend?"

"No, I met acquaintances when I was working, and I only met a few times. Du Qiu put the vaccination and smoke bomb together, and said: "Because I have to guard against the police, when I was in Japan, except for work, I rarely communicated with the locals, basically I didn't have any friends, and I called mainly to ask about the house I lived in before, and I still had a lot of personal belongings there." ”

People's feelings are limited, no matter how serious the natural disaster is, as long as it does not involve themselves, many people will not really care, Lin Dawei saw that Du Qiu was normal, and did not show much concern and worry, so he didn't say anything more, and left after sending him to Yunda, but at about 11 o'clock at noon, he suddenly came back, saying that he wanted to invite guests to dinner.

Du Qiu originally thought that he was looking for an opportunity to be courteous and completely solve the affair on New Year's Day, but when he arrived at the hotel, he found that he was thinking badly, because there was a woman in a small gray suit and rimless glasses sitting in the box.

"This is Miss Liang Jinyu of the Provincial International Trust and Investment Company, she heard that you have lived in Japan and would like to consult some information about the Japanese economy and the stock market. ”

In fact, there is no need to introduce, Liang Jinyu is the direct fuse of his parents' divorce, and he is also Lin Dawei's second wife in the future, Du Qiu has known each other for more than 20 years, and he is very familiar, even his own mother has changed her name to sister, and her stepmother doesn't matter, so she naturally said a few polite words and asked: "Can Yuncheng buy and sell Japanese stocks?"

"Not in China, but I'm going on a business trip to Hong Kong soon, and I plan to open an account there and make some private investments. Liang Jinyu is a very capable woman, she removed the dishes and chopsticks on the dining table, took out a pen and notepad, and asked straight to the point: "I heard Dawei say that you have lived in Japan for more than 10 years, what impact do you think this Kobe earthquake will have on the Japanese economy? ”

Yo, Dad, you are considerate enough, the gold and jade that was just made yesterday is full of gold, and I will give it to my lover today......

Du Qiu spent half a year at Osaka University in 2009 as an exchange student, Kobe and Osaka across the sea, the straight-line distance is only a few dozen kilometers, the transportation is very convenient, he and his friends have been to play several times, this experience is the fictional "abduction to Japan" inspiration and confidence, so he is not panicked at all, and talked eloquently: " Kobe has not had a major earthquake for hundreds of years, and the locals think that this is not an earthquake zone, and the awareness of earthquake resistance is relatively weak, and many traditional Japanese brick and wood buildings have been retained, so if there is a 7.3 magnitude earthquake, I estimate that the damage will be very heavy......"

"Japan has a long and narrow area, the economic center of gravity is all biased to the Pacific side, equivalent to a bug lying on its side, Kobe is its throat, not only has the world's largest throughput container terminal, but also is the transportation hub of the Shinkansen and highways, every year about 30% of the foreign trade shipping and about 15% of the road freight have to pass through here, once something happens, the entire country's economy will have big trouble......

"Sumitomo Trust Bank, Sakura Bank is the two most important banks in the Hanshin area, after the earthquake, many loans will become dead debts, so I estimate that their stock prices will fall more sharply, in addition to the machinery manufacturing industry is also the main sufferer of the earthquake, the machinery manufacturing industry in the Hanshin area is very developed, but most of them are small and medium-sized enterprises, for Toyota, Giants such as Mitsubishi provide spare parts, the earthquake will paralyze production and transportation for at least several months, those big companies cannot afford to wait, they will definitely change suppliers, without orders, these companies can only go bankrupt, the Japanese are extreme, and the number of suicides in the next few years may be more than the number of people killed in the earthquake......"

In order to create an image of "smart and studious, well-read and strong-remembered" after being abducted, Du Qiu talked a lot of content, half of which was what he saw and heard when he was studying abroad, and half of which was rumors on the Internet, no matter what it was, it was a fresh knowledge for the vast majority of people in China in 1995, and it was also very important investment information, Liang Jinyu shook hands with him before leaving, and thanked: "Du Qiu, what you said is very helpful to me, and after I come back from Hong Kong in a few days, I will invite you to dinner." ”

"You're welcome. ”

When walking out of the hotel door, Liang Jinyu suddenly covered her mouth and coughed twice, and then hurriedly turned around and went to the bathroom, Du Qiu looked at her back, and then looked at Lin Dawei with a confused face, and couldn't help but rub his forehead with his palm - in another 7 months and 11 days, he will have an extra cruel and cute half-sister.

"Brother-in-law, you are very powerful, you are not afraid of capsizing when you step on so many boats?"

"Don't get me wrong, she's the younger sister I met in college, not the kind of relationship you think. Lin Dawei had a hard mouth and resolutely denied it: "Your sister also knows her, and the two often go out shopping together." ”

Just because you ate too badly, you even started the grass next to the nest, which enlarged your best friend's belly and made your mother lose face, so you resolutely divorced......

"What about the one in red last time?"

"That's really a show, I met in a dance hall, just play around. Li Dawei leaned against the car door, looking like a long-time driver, and said bewildermently: "Du Qiu, although the domestic entertainment industry is not as developed as Japan, there are many interesting places, why don't I take you out for a walk one day?"

Dad, your nerves are really big, is it appropriate to take your "brother-in-law" who has just met for a few days to go out for fun......

You just enjoy this last good life, after marrying Liang Jinyu's daughter, she was eaten to death, only a few hundred yuan of pocket money a month, I see how chic you are......

Everyone has their own way of life and concept of life, happy or not, only they know, Du Qiu has no intention of interfering in his parents' feelings and marriage, so he stopped at the point, didn't say more, and changed the topic: "Brother-in-law, can you lend me the computer at home for a few days?" I found a few programming books in the Yunda library, and I plan to learn them. ”

"I haven't touched that thing for more than half a year, and you can use whatever you want if you put it in the house to eat ashes. ”

"Can you move to the place I rented? I study for a while during the day when I have a break, and I have to play with Jin Yan at night, and I don't have time to play with the computer. ”

"Okay, I'll help you move here. ”

In 1995, the domestic automobile market was not prosperous enough, and now it is approaching the Spring Festival, Lin Dawei's auto parts store does not have much business, and he is idle, so he helped move the computer at home to the house rented by Du Qiu, and after he left, Du Qiu went to the Yunda Library, ready to go to the computer room to find Yuan Tiangang to get a network cable, the main purpose of borrowing this computer is not programming, but to use it as a transit machine, the computer in 1995 can not use a USB disk, a laptop can not use a floppy disk, except for the network cable, there is no other way to copy the content in the notebook.

It's a pity that there is no Internet now, otherwise dozens of gigabytes of information and documents in laptops can shock the world if you get a little bit of it......
