Volume 10 Infinite Scenery at the Dangerous Peak Section 40 The Hole - Achilles' Heel
Lu Weimin's mention of the sterling crisis in 1992 made He Keng's eagle eyes burst into stars.
Soros sniped the pound and became famous, and the billion-dollar gains also gave way in this fierce battle against the Bank of England, and the billion-dollar rich gains were in the bag, Lu Weimin's words undoubtedly hinted that Southeast Asia may suffer from the British 92 pound crisis, and He Keng, who has long understood the changes in Thailand's economic and financial situation, has been pondering this matter, and now Lu Weimin's affirmation has added a little confidence to He Keng.
"If the general trend remains the same, there is indeed something to be done, several of my assistants have mentioned that the economic situation in Southeast Asia is confusing, but there is no doubt that the situation in countries like Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia is very similar to the situation during the Mexican financial crisis in '94, especially Thailand, the current Thai real estate market has some signs, an economist named Morris Goltz has also made such predictions, but now everyone is not sure, do you and your friends also have this opinion?"
He Keng's eyebrows gradually stretched, and it seemed that he had made up his mind.
"Almost, now the strength of international travel represented by various funds is constantly expanding, compared to the 92 pound crisis and the 94 Mexican financial crisis, the economic problems of Southeast Asian countries have accumulated for a long time, if the governments can not face up, prepare in advance, it is difficult to recover. Lu Weimin nodded.
"Hehe, I'm not too interested in them to get back, but I'm still very interested in following a short sell, using leverage and hedging to fall into the ground, I think this kind of income will not be too bad, for the people, are you interested in doing it?" He Keng showed a smile on his face, obviously referring to something.
"Brother Keng, is this what your assistants think?" Lu Weimin asked rhetorically.
"They said that if you want to go short, you have to do it with leverage. Otherwise, the amount of money mobilized is astronomical, and when the real fight begins, governments will also adopt various ways to increase the cost of credit, and the leverage method is risky, but the benefits will be greater. He Keng said with interest: "You haven't answered my question yet." ”
"Brother Keng, do you have to let me participate in it to rest assured?You have a professional in charge, are you still afraid?" Lu Weimin also joked, "My sister's side, I have to ask, who knows what arrangements she has." ”
"For the people, Huamin retreated. Quite beautiful, although the transaction amount of Huamin and Sanzhu has not been disclosed, but the outside world will not be less than one billion, just this transaction is enough to make Huamin Company stay in the economic history forever. ”
He Keng is obviously very concerned about Huamin Company, Lu Weimin once invited him to invest in Huamin, but he did not agree at the time, and now it seems to be a very wrong choice, but He Keng does not regret it, no one can expect Huamin Company to develop like a monster. He prefers to opt for more reliable investment options.
"One billion cash income, now Huamin Company is basically in a state of stagnation, and I also heard that your sister has been on vacation in the past few months, such a large amount of cash. Isn't she going to make it work?"
"Brother Keng, you have to ask my sister about this, but I'm afraid there are also problems with the transfer of a large amount of funds out of the country. Lu Weimin frowned.
"It's not a big problem, if your sister is interested. I can help arrange a departure from Hong Kong. He Keng made up his mind to tie Lu Weimin to the chariot.
"Well, I'll talk to my sister, maybe she's willing to play a hand. Lu Weimin agreed.
Lu Weimin was not surprised by He Keng's idea of wanting to intervene in the coming financial turmoil. In fact, when He Keng transferred part of his energy to Hong Kong from the former Soviet Union, he knew that the identity behind He Keng was only quite complicated, based on Hong Kong can make many more conspicuous businesses blurred, and through Hong Kong, many capital components can also become dispersed and complex, and just using Hong Kong as a transit station is not satisfactory to He Keng, so Lu Weimin asked a little and knew that He Keng intended to build Hong Kong into another fulcrum for him, and Hong Kong Shenghua Group was a pawn under He Keng's control.
When leaving the world and going home, He Keng also casually mentioned to Lu Weimin, "For the people, Tian Haihua is about to leave Changjiang, Shao Jingchuan takes over, his attitude towards Songzhou is probably not as clear as Tian Haihua, you have to take it easy in everything, don't think about anything so absolutely, do you think it should be so, it may not be like this, do you understand what I mean?"
Lu Weimin was shocked, he heard the meaning of He Keng's words, this must be He Keng's understanding of Shao Jingchuan's attitude towards Songzhou through other channels, not Dong Zhaoyang, which can also explain that Shao Jingchuan would support the promotion of an official from Songzhou to take this position now, which he really didn't expect.
Seeing that Lu Weimin seemed to be a little shaken, He Keng shook his head again: "Don't think about it so complicated, Shao Jingchuan sits in the position of secretary of the provincial party committee, I'm afraid there will be some changes in his thinking, Tian Haihua is gone, if the mess in Songzhou is handed over to him, he may consider the problem from a different angle, I want to remind you that everything is transformed in a specific situation, especially in the case of interests, what they need to judge is which is more important and which is urgent." ”
Lu Weimin nodded silently, you can't expect anyone to stick to the bottom line like yourself, the bottom line you think may be a condition that can be used for trading and compromise in the minds of others, it depends on the attitude of the decision-maker, and now that you are not a decision-maker, you have to obey the attitude of the decision-maker.
From Dong Zhaoyang, Lu Weimin knew that Shao Jingchuan proposed that the candidate for the Standing Committee of the Songzhou Municipal Party Committee and the head of the Propaganda Department was Bi Huasheng, the current vice mayor, and Bi Huasheng had a very close relationship with Huang Junqing and Xu Zhongzhi, and that he was Mei Jiuling, the director of the municipal finance bureau in the Huang Junqing era, and how Mei Jiuling or Huang Junqing persuaded Shao Jingchuan and Mo Jicheng to support Bi Huasheng when the provincial party committee's views on Songzhou were relatively consistent, which means that nothing is impossible.
*************************************************************************************
Ideas are infinitely good, but they have to be implemented in the work at hand.
Lu Weimin was very worried about the current situation in Songzhou, but he also knew that now was not the time for him to care too much about things outside of his own work, what he had to do now was to do a solid job in his work, lay a solid foundation on his own one-third of an acre, and establish his prestige and prestige bit by bit.
The propaganda line is nothing more than three and a half pieces, propaganda mouth, cultural and sports mouth, radio and television mouth, as for the education mouth, it can only be regarded as half a piece, Lu Weimin knows that in essence, the city government is more concerned.
The propaganda department mainly refers to the headquarters of the Propaganda Department, the Civilization Office, the lecturer group, the "Songzhou Daily" and the "Songzhou Evening News".
The cultural and sports outlets mainly include the Cultural Bureau and the Sports Bureau, and there are many institutions under the Cultural Bureau, such as song and dance troupes, group art museums, museums, calligraphy and painting institutes, libraries, Chang Opera troupes, art centers, etc., with a total of seven or eight, and a Songzhou Art School.
The radio and television port refers to the Radio and Television Bureau, and there are also television and radio stations below.
He Jing is mainly responsible for the theoretical education and external propaganda of the propaganda department, while Du Bin is responsible for the cultural education and cultural industry, Bei Haiwei is in charge of the radio and television sector, and Xiong Yalei is in charge of the news and public opinion, and the division of labor is quite reasonable, but after Ma Deming and Wang Zongyi both fell from power, the work in the ministry was somewhat put on hold.
In the absence of a candidate for executive deputy minister for the time being, Lu Weimin could only temporarily let He Jing play the role of executive deputy minister, in fact, before he took office, He Jing was quite good.
After settling down for a few days, Lu Weimin knew that he needed to get into the state as soon as possible.
He Jing has already introduced the work of the Propaganda Department to him, as far as the current situation is concerned, the work of the two major centers this year, the celebration of the July 1st Literary and Art Show, this is a small dish, the series of activities to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the founding of the city in September, the Propaganda Department will play the leading role, and his own minister will be the leader.
In addition to these two tasks, it is necessary to be familiar with the situation, and several major mouths must conduct research to understand the most real situation, which is also what every leader must do after taking office.
Bei Haiwei looked at Lu Weimin standing on the construction site with his hands behind his back and looking at the construction site that seemed a little deserted, and felt nervous for no reason.
The construction site has been temporarily suspended, only three or five bored workers sit outside the shed and play poker, the ten-story building has been basically capped, and now the interior decoration and water and electricity are needed, and the downstairs is still a mess, greenery, roads and parking lots are still on paper.
It is this radio and television building that almost squeezes out the financial budget for the propaganda line, and has invested 50 million yuan in this building in three years, and 30 million yuan has been smashed in just the first year, and the plan is very grand. The daily newspaper and the evening newspaper are going to move in, but it cannot be said that this idea is not good, but under the condition that Songzhou's finances are so tight, it still spares no expense to build such a building, and now 50 million yuan is smashed in, but there is still no sign of closing the mouth, which cannot but make people feel worried.
"I heard that the Finance Bureau has allocated another two million, why is there still no movement on this construction site?" Lu Weimin turned his head and asked casually: "When is this building scheduled to be completed?"
"It was originally expected to be the end of this year, but now it seems that it may be delayed until the middle of next year, what can two million do?" Bei Haiwei sighed, "The city finance is squeezing toothpaste, which will only make this project drag on for a longer time, in fact, this loss is even greater, and the construction company is open and stopped, and there are great complaints."
