Chapter 574: Contraction (2-in-1)
"The Hang Seng Index suffered shocks in early trading, affected by the Southeast Asian financial crisis, the morning market opened, the Hang Seng Index plummeted 468 points, causing panic, after the afternoon opening, the stock market trading volume was active, the Hang Seng Index gradually rebounded, closing at 15,152 points, a single-day shock range of more than 500 points. β
"The Hong Kong dollar suffered a major crisis, with both the cash and forward futures markets selling off, amounting to HK$35 billion, and the HKMA losing US$4 billion in a single day. β
"If it weren't for the end of the market to be rescued by mysterious funds, Hong Kong stocks would have been sold in a panic, where did this mysterious funds come from? β
γγγγγγ
Hong Kong, Mandarin Oriental.
"Today, Mr. Huang really showed his might, stabilized the Hang Seng Index in one fell swoop, and was generous and bold!" Luo Zhaohui stretched out two thumbs and said like a tide.
Huang Zhan smiled proudly, but his mouth was pretending to be modest: "It's hard to say now, it depends on the impact of tomorrow's foreign exchange market." β
Liu Yuci said slowly: "Mr. Huang is too modest, today's 500-point shock has made international speculators lose at least millions, this is the first time that international speculators have been deflated in Asia, and Mr. Huang will be unlimited in the future." β
Huang Zhan couldn't help but show a hint of a smile, and pretended to excuse a few words.
Zeng Xinquan looked a little worried, "You still can't be careless, although international speculators are not good, but in one day, they shorted 35 billion Hong Kong dollars, and the pressure on the HKMA is very great." It is not known at all how many chips international speculators have at the moment, and if it comes back tomorrow, it is really difficult to say. β
Huang Zhan's expression was a little uncertain, but Zeng Xinquan could reach the heavens, and with his current status, he didn't dare to argue with Zeng Xinquan.
Liu Yuci smiled: "The rich man is too worried, right? Xiangjiang has abundant foreign reserves, and it is impossible for international speculators to use hundreds of billions of dollars to exchange for empty Xiangjiang, right?"
Ren Zhigang shook the red wine glass in his hand: "Now I am more worried about the liquidity of the Hong Kong dollar, if the HKMA continues to absorb the Hong Kong dollar, it will inevitably cause the liquidity of the Hong Kong dollar, and we still have to find a way to increase the cost of international speculators." β
Liu Yuci's eyes flashed and he was silent.
At this time, there was a commotion at the door, and everyone turned their heads to see that although he was not tall, Li Chaoren, who was in good spirits and always maintained a warm smile, walked in.
"Sorry, sorry, there's been a delay. Li Chaoren shook hands with everyone.
"The first meeting of the Advisory Committee was late, KS, you have to punish yourself with three glasses. Zheng Yutong, chairman of the board of directors of New World, said with a smile.
The two are old friends, Li Chaoren waved his hand with a smile, "You know that I can't drink well, and you want to see my jokes." So good, a cup. With that, Li Chaoren picked up a glass of red wine and drank it all.
After all, he is the richest man in China, and no one will say anything if he can put on such a posture.
"KS, what do you think about today's stock market and foreign exchange market?" Ren Zhigang asked.
Li Chaoren excused himself: "I'm not engaged in finance, there are so many experts here, how can there be a place for me to speak." It's better to ask Sir Qiu, he is in the banking business, and he knows more than me. β
The white-haired Qiu Degen shook his head: "If you don't even have a place to speak, we don't have to speak, don't push, let's talk." β
Li Chaoren couldn't resist everyone, so he had to put down his wine glass and think about it: "I think the most important thing is confidence." β
"As long as the confidence of the Hong Kong people does not fall, no matter who the international speculators are, they will not achieve the ultimate goal, and in the end they will still have to withdraw, the key is confidence. β
"Judging from the trading volume of the two markets today, I think international speculators should still have a backhand, and we should be careful of their follow-up attacks, and it is better to be cautious. β
Huang Zhan said: "I came to Xiangjiang this time to boost the confidence of Hong Kong people. β
Li Chaoren saw Huang Zhan for the first time, and couldn't help but be stunned, under the introduction of others, Li Chaoren suddenly realized, showed a warm smile, and held Huang Zhan's hand with both hands, "It turned out to be Mr. Huang, I'm sorry, it's the first time we met." Hua'an can represent the mainland, which is naturally better and solves the big problem of Xiangjiang. β
Huang Zhan smiled reservedly, and just wanted to humble himself, but heard Li Chaoren continue: "This time the mainland can set up a special force in Hua'an, I heard that Zhang Chen of Matrix has made a lot of efforts, and the mainland can have such young talents, which shows that the future potential is limitless, and our Hong Kong people will become more and more confident in returning." By the way, why didn't you see him coming?"
Huang Zhan's smile froze, and when Liu Yuci saw this, he took over the topic: "This war between Huaan and international speculators still needs to have an experienced and reliable elite like Mr. Huang at the helm." Mr. Huang can be the head of Huaan, which is enough to show the trust of the upper echelons in Mr. Huang. Today, I should thank Mr. Huang the most, if it weren't for Mr. Huang's action today, which pulled up the market, we Huaren would also suffer heavy losses. Come, Mr. Huang, I toast you. β
Seeing this, Li Superman didn't understand what was going on, so he snorted two haha and stopped talking.
The reception was the first gathering of the newly formed Financial Advisory Board, and everyone gathered in different circles to speak, but the common topic was whether Hong Kong could survive the crisis.
βγγγγγγ As long as everyone present has confidence in Hong Kong, and as long as the Hong Kong people have confidence in Hong Kong, Hong Kong will win!" Chief Executive Tong Xinhua delivered a speech on behalf of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, and the whole reception came to an end.
"Mr. Huang, this is for you. Liu Yuci took out a room card from his pocket and squeezed his eyes at Huang Zhan, "Room 2066." β
Huang Zhan comprehended, quietly put away the room card, and patted Liu Yuci on the shoulder.
ββββββββββββββ
"Boss, looking at today's meaning, the so-called international speculators are nothing remarkable. Luo Zhaohui and Liu Yuci each walked out of the elevator with an actress in their arms.
Liu Yuci patted the buttocks of the actress next to her, the actress smiled charmingly, and went down to the parking lot from the staff elevator in the hotel lobby to the parking lot, Liu Yuci pulled Luo Zhaohui: "As soon as the market opens tomorrow, it will be shipped immediately, and how much can be delivered." β
The cigarette in Luo Zhaohui's mouth fell to the ground, and he was shocked: "Boss, I will lose a lot of money when shipping now!"
Liu Yuci snorted: "If you want to die, I won't accompany you, anyway, I have already told you, you have hard wings now, you have your own opinions, it's up to you to listen or not." β
Luo Zhaohui hurriedly smiled: "Boss, boss, I can have today, didn't you give it all to me? However, is it better to come out slowly? With Huang Zhan, the big man who is wronged, he is not afraid that no one will take over. β
Liu Yuci's face was a little pale: "Come out slowly, I'm afraid that you won't have this slow tomorrow." β
Luo Zhaohui's eyes froze: "Boss, don't scare me." β
Liu Yuci sighed: "Tomorrow, if the quantum fund continues to ship, the HKMA will definitely raise the interbank lending rate, and then it will be reflected in the stock market, no matter how stupid Huang Zhan is, it is impossible to continue to support the bottom, he has invested $1.8 billion in order to pull the Hang Seng Index today, once the market plummets, whether Huaan will continue to support the market, is unknown." β
"Raise interest rates?" Luo Zhaohui was taken aback, "The HKMA won't do this, will it? Now it has only consumed four billion US dollars, and it is still far from the safety line." β
Today, the HKMA has absorbed more than 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, and if international speculators continue to ship, the Hong Kong dollar in the market will continue to decrease, and the liquidity of the Hong Kong dollar will be completely lost, and the Hong Kong economy will be finished. Only by raising the interbank lending rate can they make the cost of international speculators rise, and they will naturally withdraw if they can't make money. β
Luo Zhaohui still didn't give up: "But, Hua'anγγγγγγ β
Liu Yuci shook his head firmly: "Huaan's funds are indeed very abundant, and the trading model used by Huang Zhan today is indeed very exquisite. But the experience and quality of the traders under him are too poor, and the trading style is rigid. I believe that international speculators will soon find a flaw in his trading model, with Huaan's current ability, it is like a three-year-old child with gold in one hand and a sword in the other, no matter how sharp the sword is, it is difficult to protect his gold from being robbed. β
"In short, it's an eventful time now, shrinking defense is the best tactic, you have to shrink all the funds back to Dongfanghong, and I will also shrink the funds back to Huazhi, this is the lifeblood of you and me. β
Luo Zhaohui said yes, Liu Yuci was not in the mood to continue chatting with him, waved his hand, and also walked to the staff elevator.
"Shipment?" Luo Zhaohui looked reluctant, "If you ship now, you will lose at least 150 million." That's 150 million, damn, it's enough to soak your Li Da Beauty. Luo Zhaohui felt that his heart was dripping blood.
Luo Zhaohui took out a paper bag, put it in his nostrils and sucked it hard, his eyes were red.
Damn! Fight hard! Seek wealth and danger, when has Lao Tzu lost money for so many years? Since you Liu Yuci have no guts, this money Lao Tzu has already earned!

Kyoto, Nanen Airport.
It had just rained in Kyoto the day before yesterday, and the weather at the end of August was the end of summer, and the weather after the rain was quite refreshing, sweeping away the heat of the previous days.
Ouyang Yu looked at Zhang Chen and Sandberg who walked down the gangway with a smile on his face, as well as three or four bodyguards and life assistants behind the two, walked a few steps quickly, and greeted them.
"Haha, I haven't seen you for almost a year, and your career is getting bigger and bigger. Ouyang Yu grabbed Zhang Chen's outstretched right hand and shook it, "How is it? I didn't expect me to come, right?"
Zhang Chen said with a smile: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, you are no longer in the Consulate General in Los Angeles?"
Since he met Ouyang Yu at the Consulate General in Los Angeles last year, Zhang Chen has only met with him twice, and it has been almost a year. Seeing Ouyang Yu, Zhang Chen thought of Su Zhuorui, at that time, this guy also wanted to pursue Su Zhuohui, and it is said that he also went to find Su Zhuohui a few times, but Su Zhuohui politely refused.
Thinking of Su Zhuorui, Zhang Chen's mood couldn't help but darken slightly.
Ouyang Yu didn't notice the change in Zhang Chen's mood, and shook his head with a smile, "I came back three months ago, and now there are more and more international exchanges in academics, and the Education Commission lacks talents in this area, so I was transferred to the Education Commission as a permanent secretary." Just a few days after I arrived, I heard that you, a big boss, want to sponsor the education cause in China. When you come back this time, I took the initiative to ask for this pick-up errand. Cow, private jets are all on it, the number one in China. β
Zhang Chen was quite happy to see his acquaintance, after all, Ouyang Yu had also helped him in Hua Zhongzhao's affairs, and the two had some friendship, "Don't, where did you come from, if I don't travel too often and don't spend this money, you don't want to roast me on the fire." β
Ouyang Yu smiled and said: "A one-time sponsorship of 100 million yuan is also the first one in China, so don't be modest." Let's go, get in the car, let's talk in the car, Director Yao is waiting for you at the Education Commission. Is this your employee?" Ouyang Yu slammed into Sandbergnu.
Zhang Chen nodded and introduced in English: "It's my senior assistant, Cheryl Sandberg, now she is mainly responsible for some specific affairs, and she will also participate in this Spark Scholar Award Program in China this time." β
After all, Ouyang Yu has been the first secretary of the Consulate General in Los Angeles for two years, and he speaks English almost the same as his native language, so he said hello to Sandberg and specially opened the car door for Sandberger.
"You rich people, you are corrupt. Ouyang Yu sat next to Zhang Chen and shook his head and quipped, "Secretaries use foreigners, and they also use foreign beauties." β
Zhang Chen smiled and said, "How are you doing if you don't come to this set?"
Ouyang Yu stretched out his left hand and shook the ring on his ring finger at Zhang Chen, "It's over." β
Zhang Chen asked casually: "I didn't see you send an invitation, when did it happen?"
Ouyang Yu said hesitantly: "How dare you send you an invitation, if you don't pay attention to it after sending it, you will lose face." Just last month, I've known each other since I was a child, and I think it's a world friend, her mother and my father are colleagues, and they grew up in a big school. β
Zhang Chen shook his head, "You are purely murderous. After thinking about it, he asked Thomas, who was sitting in the passenger seat, to hand over the briefcase he was carrying and took out a small box from the bag.
"You didn't tell me, and I didn't prepare it for anything, a little heart, it can be regarded as a congratulatory gift to my sister-in-law. Zhang Chen handed the locket to Ouyang Yu.
Ouyang Yu opened it and saw that it was two omega couple watches, "No, no, didn't you let me make a mistake?"
Zhang Chen didn't care, "This is a friendship between friends, and I don't ask you to do anything." Besides, this little thing doesn't matter to you. β
Ouyang Yu's mother is in the foreign trade business, although she is not a rich party, but she is definitely not short of money, and two watches are really nothing.
Ouyang Yu smiled: "Then I'll thank you, by the way, how is Miss Su doing?"
Zhang Chen cut off: "You're all married, don't worry about it." β
Ouyang Yu sighed: "It's not worry, it's pure concern." I used to think she was very big and didn't care about anything. Later, I found out that she is still quite sensitive in her heart and needs someone to care for and take care of her. It's a pity, there is no fate. β
Ouyang Yu had some emotion in his expression, and he could see that this guy really liked Su Zhuorui at the beginning.
Zhang Chen looked out the window with his eyes, but that shadow appeared in his mind.
"It's here. The car slowly stopped in the courtyard of the Education Commission, Ouyang Yu cleaned up his mood and opened the car door. "Boss Zhang, please. β
