Text Chapter 939 The Distinguished Guest of the Blue House
South Korea's financial situation is getting worse and worse, and it should be said that the financial situation in Asia as a whole is getting worse and worse.
You must know that Singapore, the financial center of Southeast Asia, has completely become a "ruin", so lonely and pitifully abandoned in a vast ocean, slowly licking the wounds that I don't know how long it will take to heal. Although Singapore is only a small projectile land, its fall is like a bloody "monument", warning Asian countries that there is a "sword of Damocles" on your head.
However, South Korea never imagined that this "sword of Damocles" would suddenly slash at his head, you know, this "financial turmoil" has been raging in Southeast Asia before. In the face of the sudden "financial turmoil", South Korea was really stunned, and there was no mental preparation at all, so in the most important foreign exchange market, the won has been hanging from the beginning to the present.
As a result, South Korea, the "Asian Tigers", also followed Singapore and became a "poor worm".
Now, this "poor worm" looks a little precarious, and it is likely to become a "dead worm", which is something that the South Korean government will never allow to happen. However, looking at the current situation, this possibility is increasing dramatically, and it is one step away from becoming a reality, and Singapore's "miserable situation" seems to beckon them.
However, when the won was beaten to the "life-and-death hurdle" of approaching 2,000 to 1 in the foreign exchange market, an "uninvited guest" came to the Blue House.
This "uninvited guest" is none other than Su Chenyu's "special envoy" Jamie Damon!
As the "head" of Standard Bank Group, Jamie Dimon can be said to be one of the most powerful people in the global financial industry today, and there is no doubt that his "uninvited guest" is definitely the most distinguished guest of the Blue House.
What's more, at this critical moment in South Korea, Jamie Dimon, the "head" of the world's No. 1 bank, has a status in the hearts of Kim Yong-sam and South Korean government officials
Yes, it is higher than Clinton's status. It's very simple, because Jamie Dimon can provide them with real money support, but Clinton can't give it, so he can only let it go.
However, what South Korea needs now is not "chicken soup for the soul", but the dollar, dollar, dollar important things to say three times!
As the world's No. 1 bank, Standard Bank Group and the consortium behind it are fully equipped and capable to provide the most needed dollar support to the South Korean government. After all, Standard Bank has provided huge low-interest loans to the Russian government, and of course, the other party has paid a huge price. However, now the South Korean government and Kim Yong-sam have no choice but not to pay any price, and the top priority is to get dollars to tide over this difficulty.
Moreover, Standard Bank Group has a close relationship with the "culprit" X Fund, and if it can be solved at a certain cost, it will definitely be able to quickly dismantle the current predicament facing South Korea.
Therefore, Jamie Dimon's arrival was received by South Korean President Kim Yong-sam with the highest level of hospitality, and he is now the most distinguished "honored guest" of the Blue House.
After receiving the highest standards, Jamie Dimon, the "distinguished guest", started an enthusiastic "closed-door conversation" with the "host" Kim Yong-san!
No one knows what this "closed-door talk" is about? Because this is a "two-person turn" between Jamie Dimon and Kim Yong-san.
You must know that for the sake of confidentiality and security, there was not even a single translator present in this "closed-door conversation", and there were only two people in the whole process, Jamie Dimon and Kim Yong-san. Although no one knows the specific content of this "closed-door conversation", it is clear that something big must happen because it has lasted for quite a long time.
When the "closed-door meeting" ended, Jamie Dimon and Kim Yong-sam walked out hand in hand, but one smiled lightly, and the other was full of solemnity. There is no doubt that the one with a smile on his face must be Jamie Damon, and Kim Yong-sam is naturally dignified.
On the evening after the "closed-door meeting," Kim Yong-sam immediately convened a meeting of all the members of his cabinet. The cabinet meeting began in the evening and lasted until the early hours of the next morning, and after breakfast at the Blue House, every cabinet member who left was solemn.
Kim Yong-sam, who had not slept all night, did not go to rest immediately after the meeting, but had another small meeting with several core members of his cabinet. Obviously, this small meeting is the key, and last night's cabinet meeting was nothing more than an advance notice and a tentative.
If the matter of that "distinguished guest" wants to be passed, then it must first put his cabinet on his side, and only then can it pass the deliberations of the Diet. However, looking at the reactions of his cabinet members in the early hours of this morning, it is clear that it is not so ideal, and there is still a big difference of opinion on this matter.
No way, in the end, no one wants to take such a big risk, one is not good, all of them may be nailed to the pillar of shame of the South Korean country. Moreover, Kim Yong-sam's term of office is approaching, and these cabinet members are even more reluctant to take risks and become "cannon fodder". However, these people do not want to think that with the current economic and financial situation in South Korea, if they are no longer able to turn the tide and allow the situation to deteriorate, then these people will have already become "sinners" in this country.
Of course, no matter what, he Kim Yong-sam will be the biggest "sinner", and even, with what he did before, the end will be even more miserable.
Therefore, no matter from which point of view, Kim Yong-sam has 10,000 reasons to cooperate with this "distinguished guest", because this is an opportunity for himself and a chance for the country.
Whether it is a minefield or an abyss ahead, Kim Yong-sam has decided to break through!
So, after the cabinet meeting at the Blue House, Kim Yong-sam and his confidants met with Jamie Dimon again, and this time, the two sides will discuss the feasibility of the whole thing in more depth.
After all, this incident is too shocking and too scary......
