Chapter 241: The Proud Chinese People (Asking for Votes, Asking for Booklists)
Before going to see Yang Zhuping, Zhang Chen called Xiao Lele and asked her to sell all the stocks in her stock account.
Xiao Lele was startled when he heard this. With the increasing dividends of aliens, the first thing Zhang Chen did after receiving his monthly dividends was to invest in the stock market.
Although he later withdrew hundreds of thousands of dollars from the stock market due to lack of money, he also invested more than 3 million yuan in total.
Now, although this money has not increased tenfold as expected, there are still more than 15 million lying in the stock market account.
As a personal assistant, Xiao Lele knows how much money Zhang Chen has in his stock account, and he also knows that the stock market is still rising. Why did the boss decide to clear the warehouse at this time?
Xiao Lele knew what to ask and what not to ask, so he didn't dare to say more, and nodded yes. But I was thinking about it, I also had six or seven thousand yuan in the stock market, did I sell them all this time?
After Yang Chen finished the call, Zhao Chunjun happened to come down from upstairs, and Zhang Chen hurriedly took two steps, "Dean Zhao is early." ”
Zhao Chunjun had a serious expression, waved his hand, and led Zhang Chen to his Santana.
Zhao Chunjun asked Zhang Chen how he was preparing in the car? He asked Zhang Chen a few academic questions, and only after seeing that Zhang Chen's answers were fluent, he was a little relieved.
Although he and Yang Zhuping have known each other for a long time, after all, Yang Zhuping is now in a high position and is relatively strict, and Zhao Chunjun is still unconsciously a little nervous every time he faces Yang Zhuping.
Santana turns to Wenjin Street through the West Fourth, now Kyoto, the road is not as congested as in later generations, and after driving for about half an hour, it will arrive at the north gate of Zhongnanhai.
The armed police standing guard at the gate checked the license plate and led Santana to the parking lot at the north gate.
Zhang Chen got out of the car and looked around, it turned out that this was Zhongnanhai, it was said that it had been open for a period of time, but he didn't catch up, he had never been here in his previous life, and he didn't expect to come in in a car in this life.
Just as he was sighing, Zhao Chunjun pulled him, "What are you doing? Zhao Chunjun scolded.
Zhang Chen nodded hurriedly, followed Zhao Chunjun, and came to a building with a guouyuan research room sign.
It is said to be a building, which is neither big nor high, only four or five floors. Zhao Chunjun talked to the guard at the door, the guard picked up the phone and made a call, telling Zhao Chunjun that he could go up, Zhao Chunjun nodded, and pulled Zhang Chen to a small living room on the second floor.
The furnishings in the living room are very simple, with six old-fashioned solid wood conference chairs and a tea table, which looks shabby but comfortable to sit on. There are two words hanging on the wall, one is written by Qi Gong, "If you enter, you will not be able to fight at home, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will perish." Zhang Chen knew that this was from Mencius.
The other is Xin Qiji's "Where to look at Shenzhou? full of scenery Beigulou".
Zhang Chen was originally a little nervous, but he didn't know why, he suddenly felt less nervous when he saw that Zhao Chunjun was more nervous than himself.
Idle is also idle, Zhang Chen took out the information that Zhao Chunjun gave him and familiarized himself with it again. After a while, the door to the small parlor opened, and a middle-aged man in his early forties entered.
As soon as Zhao Chunjun saw someone coming, he hurriedly stood up, "Secretary Liu, is the chief free?"
Secretary Liu smiled with a smile on his face: "Dean Zhao, don't worry, the chief has a small meeting on it, and it will take a while, I will come down to say hello to you first." ”
Zhao Chunjun said again and again: "It's too polite, it's too polite." But he couldn't help but smile.
Secretary Liu looked at Zhang Chen curiously: "This is your high-footed apprentice, a famous teacher, worthy of this in the domestic economics community." Secretary Liu stretched out a thumbs up and said with admiration.
Zhao Chunjun said embarrassedly: "If only it were my student, they are still in high school, I am a cherished talent, and I am ready to be specially recruited into Tsinghua University, and I will go to Tsinghua University to attend classes as soon as the summer vacation is over next year." ”
Secretary Liu was surprised: "Really, that's even worse, the young man looks very energetic." It's called Zhang Chen, right?"
Secretary Liu showed a kind smile at Zhang Chen, and Zhang Chen hurriedly said, "Yes, I'm Zhang Chen, Uncle Liu is good." ”
Secretary Liu's face was full of spring breeze, "Come on, come on, sit down, don't stand." Zhang Chen, I also read your paper, it is very well written, I really haven't seen a second one in your age, how did you think of studying the financial system in Southeast Asia?"
Zhang Chen had already typed the draft, and said without changing his face: "I went to Stanford to study in the summer vacation, and there was a classmate from India who shared a dormitory with me. He introduced me to a lot of the financial systems of India and Southeast Asia. I was interested, so I went to the library and looked it up. ”
"When I read Kreinberg's paper 'The Effect of the Fixed Exchange Rate of the Thai Baht against the US Dollar on the Secondary Market,' I suddenly felt that it would be difficult to maintain the current fixed exchange rate based on Thailand's foreign exchange reserves. In the event of a large-scale financial turmoil, the fixed exchange rate could be broken. ”
From this, I looked up some information and found that this is not impossible. Moreover, once Thailand abolishes the fixed exchange rate and implements a floating exchange rate system, some international speculators will take the opportunity to short sell, and under the effect of financial leverage, it may only take several billion dollars to completely crush the entire Thai financial system. ”
"Later, I looked at a few other Southeast Asian countries, such as Indonesia, and found that they were in a similar situation to Thailand. ”
"At first, I was not sure of my findings and judgments, because few people had come up with similar ideas before. I thought, I can't be the only one who has discovered such a simple thing, and the economies of Thailand and Indonesia are still doing well. Since no one is attacking such an obvious vulnerability, it means that there must be factors that I don't know about blocking all this. ”
"I started to study the financial system in Southeast Asia as a whole, and the more I researched, the more I felt that I was right. So I gritted my teeth and wrote this thesis as a graduation thesis for my summer program at Stanford. ”
Secretary Liu said with interest: "Then why don't you think that my country will also be attacked by international speculators?"
This question is not easy to answer, Zhang Chen pondered, "I think there are three main reasons, first, we have implemented strict foreign exchange control, in this regard, it is difficult for hot money to flow in, and it is even more difficult to flow out, and for international speculators, the risk is too high." ”
"Second, if international speculators succeed in Southeast Asia, they may not be hot-headed and turn around attacking Hong Kong and Taiwan. Xiangjiang also implements a linked exchange rate system with the US dollar, and the financial system is open, which is easier to attack. But now our foreign exchange reserves are close to US$100 billion, and together with Hong Kong's own foreign exchange reserves, it is more than US$200 billion. The plate is too big and too difficult for international speculators. ”
"Third," Zhang Chen said, "the most important thing is that we have the most cohesive government, and at the same time have the smartest and hardworking people in the world, I believe that even if the international speculators really do something to our country, we can also successfully tide over the difficulties under the leadership of the government, because we are Chinese people, proud Chinese people!"
"Well said!" a deep voice sounded in the doorway.
Everyone turned their heads to look at it and quickly stood up.
"Hello Premier Yang. ”
