When Wei Xiong learned that King Bhumibol of Thailand was coming to visit him in Hong Kong, he couldn't help but pin slightly, and then a smile appeared on his face.
In other words, he had no intention of fighting with the Indonesian government.
Before he asked the police to release the case, he thought very well that bringing down Indonesia's economy would put him in opposition to all ASEAN countries.
Obviously, the gains outweigh the losses.
But it is still necessary to teach a lesson appropriately, so when asking "Daily Daily" and Sky TV to disclose all kinds of fierce information and scandals,
He gave Sylvester another order to launch a sniper attack on the rupiah.
His idea is to make Indonesia feel pain, but not to spread to other countries, so those hard words are just a gesture.
Originally, he was still thinking about how to find a step for himself, but he didn't expect Bhumibol to send it to him.
As for the fierce news and scandals disclosed by "Tiantian Daily" and Sky TV, of course, it is impossible for his 'Dongchang' to get it.
Now the 'East Factory' has just started,
Even with the integration of some of the intelligence networks provided by Osipov, coupled with his strong financial backing, it would not have been possible to develop so quickly.
Rather, it was all from the intelligence agencies of the United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union.
β¦β¦
At 7:10 p.m., King Bhumibol of Thailand arrived at Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport on a connecting flight, and Wai Hung and Hong Kong Governor Wilson went to the airport to greet him.
As the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Thailand announced that the King of Thailand had come to Hong Kong in a private capacity,
Therefore, Wilson did not hold a grand welcome ceremony, but he and Wei Xiong went to the airport to greet him, showing enough respect.
After a brief greeting, Bhumibol got into Wei Xiong's car.
Wilson did not go with him, he knew very well what Bhumibol came to Hong Kong for, so he naturally did not bother.
On Bhumibol's way to Bronze Sparrow, a gilded invitation was handed out.
In order to welcome the arrival of King Bhumibol of Thailand, Wei Xiong plans to hold a grand welcome dinner at Bronze Bird Villa, which will be held tomorrow night.
The invitees were all Hong Kong's political, economic, cultural and entertainment leaders.
Speaking of which, this is the second time Wei Xiong and Bhumibol have met, but on weekdays, during the New Year's holiday, both sides will exchange festive greetings.
On the way, the two were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, chatting about various topics.
Bhumibol's hearty laughter can be heard from time to time, and the atmosphere is very harmonious. If outsiders were present, there would never be the slightest alienation between them.
About twenty minutes later, the convoy arrived at Tongque Villa.
Tonight's Bronze Sparrow Villa is brightly lit, and entering it is like entering a fairy tale world, and even Bhumibol can't help but take a few more looks.
Crossing a fantastic boulevard, the car stopped in front of a huge villa.
At this time, under the stairs in front of the mansion, Wei Hongdao and Lin Xueli led He Chaoqiong and other daughters and Wei Guanghong and a few older children just stood still for a while.
Seeing the car door open, Wei Hongdao greeted him with a smile.
After getting out of the car, Wei Xiong introduced Wei Hongdao and others to Bhumibol one by one, and Bhumibol behaved quite politely, without the slightest appearance of a king.
After the introduction, it was time for dinner.
This is a family banquet, just Wei Xiong's family and Bhumibol, but there are quite a few people, and a long dining table about eight or nine meters long is directly filled.
Bhumibol and Wei Hongdao sat at the main seats at each end.
At the dinner, Bhumibol didn't say anything related to the purpose of the trip, just small talk, and I have to say that Bhumibol was really talkative.
It seems that you can talk about any topic in two sentences.
And there is a feeling of unconsciously wanting close relatives, which may be the charm of his ability to rule Thailand for so many years.
By the end of the dinner, it was almost ten o'clock.
Wei Xiong personally sent Bhumibol back to a presidential suite on the top floor of the Mochizuki Pavilion, and it was only then that Bhumibol finally got down to business.
"I think Mr. Wei should know the purpose of my trip. β
Bhumibol speaks English and is very proficient, and in addition to English, he is also proficient in seven foreign languages including French, German, and Italian.
Wei Xiong leaned back on the sofa, his face groaning.
Bhumibol was not in a hurry.
This time, there was no need for Thailand, let alone him, but although his acquaintance with Wei Xiong was not made public, it was not a secret.
So Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Kwang Yao personally called him, hoping that he would come forward.
Speaking of which, with the continuous development of the economy in recent years, Singapore has become more and more active in ASEAN, and there is a tendency to compete to be a flower in the alliance.
Thinking that if Indonesia's financial sector does collapse, Thailand will also be affected.
In addition, this is an opportunity for Thailand to improve its regional status. After much thought, he agreed, and decided to come to Hong Kong himself.
to show good faith.
After a long while, Wei Xiong shrugged his shoulders lightly and said with a smile: "Since His Majesty personally interceded, I don't think I have any reason not to agree." β
"But ......"
Bhumibol smiled slightly: "If you have any requests, I think as long as it is reasonable, everyone can sit down and talk." β
"Actually, I don't have any conditions, because I know that even if I say Suharto, I won't agree, but ......"
Wei Xiong showed a kind smile: "I have invested tens of billions in this operation, and businessmen will never make a loss-making business. β
Hearing this, Bhumibol's brows furrowed slightly.
He didn't understand what Wei Xiong meant: "Forgive me for being stupid, do you plan to ask Suharto to give you compensation, or through other means?"
Wei Xiong didn't make any more detours.
"I won't buy rupiah again, but now I have to throw away the rupiah, I need to earn back the money I invested. β
Bhumibol's brow slowly relaxed.
He already understood what Wei Xiong meant, and he had no objection to this, since Wei Xiong decided to stop, naturally there was no reason to let him lose again.
What's more, he doesn't have a good impression of Suharto, so it's good to teach him a lesson.
Of course, he also believed that Wei Xiong would not lie to him: "It seems that I didn't go this trip in vain, thank you Mr. Wei for giving me this face." β
Wei Xiong smiled slightly: "Your Majesty is serious, you have always been someone I respect. β
Wei Xiong's words are not polite, Bhumibol is indeed a person with extraordinary personality charm, such a person deserves his respect.
Bhumibol also smiled and said, "You are also worthy of respect." β
β¦β¦
The next day, the front page headline of the Thai Daily newspaper was "At a critical juncture, His Majesty the King once again shows his extraordinary charm!"
According to the report: After arriving in Hong Kong, Wei Xiong and the Governor of Hong Kong personally went to the airport to greet him.
This was followed by a warm and solemn family banquet between Wei Xiong and His Majesty the King, at which His Majesty had a pleasant chat with Wei Xiong and his family.
After the dinner, Wei Xiong personally sent His Majesty the King back to his room to rest.
In His Majesty's room, Wei Xiong stayed for about 20 minutes, and the two sides discussed matters related to the current financial situation in Indonesia.
In the end, Wei Xiong promised that His Majesty would not bother with the Indonesians.
But now Wei Xiong has a large amount of rupiah in his hands, and it may be that today, or someday in the future, these rupiahs will be thrown away.
At that time, Indonesia's financial markets will inevitably be in turmoil.
It has been learned that Wei Xiong will hold a grand welcome dinner for His Majesty the King at Tongque Villa this evening, and celebrities from all walks of life in Hong Kong have received invitations.
ββββββββββββββ
ASEAN governments got the news in the middle of the night last night, and it can be said that they all breathed a sigh of relief, after all, Wei Xiong's strength is too strong.
Since the ASEAN countries are united, they will not necessarily win.
Moreover, this matter has nothing to do with other countries, and the reason for providing support is also to prevent the situation from continuing to expand and affect itself.
It's a last resort.
Now this is undoubtedly the best ending.
As for Wei Xiong will sell the Indonesian rupiah in his hand, all countries have tacitly remained silent, as long as it does not affect them, it has nothing to do with them.
With the opening bell ringing, investors found that the rupiah did not continue to appreciate.
Rather, it remains in
But today's stock and futures markets are very lively, with all stocks related to exports, such as grain, petroleum, and chemicals, rising across the board.
The opposite is true for stocks in the import sector and related sectors.
Because everyone is worried that Wei Xiong will sell the rupiah in his hand today, which will inevitably cause the rupiah to depreciate rapidly against the dollar.
Similarly, Indonesia's financial sector is on the lookout.
If Wei Xiong does sell the rupiah in large quantities in a short period of time, the central bank must take measures in order to reduce the rate of depreciation of the rupiah.
For example, raising the interest rate of the bank, or using foreign exchange earnings in rupiah.
But Webster Investment did not make any moves, as if it had completely disappeared. The rupiah has been trading slightly between plus or minus 0.5 against the US dollar.
This has to make one wonder if Wei Xiong is waiting for a more opportune moment.
As the clock ticked by, and less than an hour before the noon break was left, more people had this idea in their hearts.
However, change always happens inadvertently.
Just when most people were starting to let their guard down, the rupiah suddenly plummeted, and so did the stock market, which is closely linked to it.
However, as investors were already mentally prepared, the speed of the plunge began to decrease after lasting half an hour.
And keep it until noon break.
After the market opened in the afternoon, the rupiah continued to fall, and the stock market as a whole was still in a downward trend, but some export-oriented stocks gradually stopped the downward trend.
Instead, it went up.
β¦β¦
After the market closed in the afternoon, Wei Xiong got Sylvester's report, and in one day, Wei's Investment sold 45% of its holdings.
Profit of 4.5%.
Converted into dollars, it is also nearly a billion dollars, and although the benefits are obviously not proportional to the investment, Wei Xiong does not care about it.
He didn't plan to make money this time.
At this time, a milky cry came: "Daddy, Daddy." With the voice, Wei Zixuan ran into the study with a cheerful face.
"Daddy, is Xuanxuan's skirt good-looking?"
Wei Zixuan lifted the hem of her skirt and turned around in front of Wei Xiong, only to see that she was wearing a princess dress as white as a snowflake at this time.
There is also a white mink shawl on the shoulders.
With her cute little face like a cartoon version, not to mention how beautiful it is. But then again, even if you are not pretty, a father will say that she is pretty.
"Our Xuanxuan is the best-looking. β
Wei Xiong walked over and hugged his daughter, and couldn't help but kiss him on that pink little face as he spoke, and then asked:
"Is this your dress for tonight?"
Wei Zixuan nodded vigorously: "Well, this was chosen by Xuanxuan herself." β
Wei Xiong lowered his head again: "Our family Xuanxuan is awesome." It's a pity that it provoked the little girl's protest: "Hmph, it's all daddy's saliva." β
As she spoke, the little girl began to wriggle restlessly: "Let me down, I'm going to find Mommy." β
Wei Xiong squatted down as he said, and then the little girl broke away from his hands, and ran away in a blink of an eye, just like when she came.
"Hehe......"
Shaking his head and chuckling a few times, children are loved because they are innocent, not to mention their own daughter, who is so smart and beautiful.
β¦β¦
The dinner starts at 7 o'clock. At six o'clock, guests began to arrive, and the first to arrive were all friends of Wei Xiong.
For example, Liu Dehua, Zhong Chuhong, Luo Meiwei, Zhang Xueyou, Mui Yanfang and others.
As for Zhang Guorong, needless to say, he came with his wife and children a long time ago, and it didn't take long for Zhou Yanfa to come, so the two stayed in Heming Pavilion for an afternoon.
There are a variety of leisure and entertainment facilities inside, but it is also pleasant.
It is worth mentioning that Luo Meiwei's belly has begun to show her pregnancy, even if she wears a loose dress, she can still see it if she looks closely.
And her and Zhang Xueyou's wedding date is also scheduled for the beginning of next month.
Otherwise, if the belly is too big, there will be a lot to see at the wedding. If it weren't for Zhang Xueyou's schedule had been arranged in advance, it really wouldn't have been adjusted.
It was time to get married last month.
Now that the marriage has been officially announced, since their relationship has long been made public and they are living together, the outside world is not surprised by their marriage.
Except for some fans, most people and the media have a blessed attitude.
This is mainly due to the fact that since their debut, in addition to each other, the two have not had any scandals with other people, which is undoubtedly very rare.
is regarded as a model couple in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
As time went by, more and more guests arrived, and by half past six, Cheng Long also came with Lin Fengjiao, who was wearing a crimson dress.
Although Wei Xiong didn't treat Cheng Long very well,
But after all, Cheng Long is one of the most well-known actors in Hong Kong today, and he is an artist under Wei's, so it would be a bit unreasonable to miss it.
And the specific guest list was not drawn up by Wei Xiong.
Instead, Cui Muqing's five daughters discussed and decided, mainly based on 'influence'. Of course, the premise is that Wei Xiong knows and has no grudge against Wei Xiong.
Of course, Wei Xiong doesn't have to do this kind of thing to greet guests.
As the housekeeper of Bronze Bird Villa, Yoshiko Fujita was already wearing a lady's butler uniform at 6 o'clock and stood at the foot of the steps in front of the mansion to greet guests.
Most of today's guests are first-time visitors to Bronze Bird Villa.
Before that, they only heard the name, but did not see the reality. Now that I see it, I know that the name of 'one of the most luxurious private estates in the world' is well deserved.
The beauty, magnificence and extravagance of the lodge impressed everyone.
And what impressed them the most was the beautiful maids who couldn't take their eyes off their eyes, where did so many beautiful maids come from?
They certainly don't be naΓ―ve enough to think they're hired by a housekeeping company.
As for where it came from, most people showed helpless expressions after being curious.
After this confrontation, which has attracted huge attention around the world, everyone has a clear understanding of what kind of height Wei Xiong is at.
That's beyond the reach of the average rich man.
By 6:50 a.m., all the guests and their female companions were there. A few minutes later, Wei Xiong and King Bhumibol walked into the banquet hall together.
followed by He Chaoqiong and Cui Muqing and other women, as well as a few older children.
The format of the dinner was Western-style buffet style, and the appearance of Wei Xiong and Bhumibol immediately attracted all attention, followed by a round of applause.
On the innermost side of the hall there is a small stage about half a meter above the ground.
Wei Xiong and Bhumibol walked through the crowd amid continuous applause, smiling and greeting the people on both sides as they walked, with He Chaoqiong and other women following behind.
Tonight, all the women are dressed up.
Whether sexy, dignified, elegant, or pure...... The styles vary, but without exception, all of them are breathtakingly beautiful.
In fact, the Hong Kong media has already made a comparison.
The object of comparison is before and after Wei Xiong's 13 wives and 5 secretaries were with him, and it turns out that the gap is obvious.
In the past, although all the women were also the top beauties, the gap with other beauty stars in the circle was not too big.
However, now both temperament, appearance and figure have risen by more than one level, and even Lin Qingxia looks a lot younger than before.
It feels incredible to the public and the media.
Of course, there are not some people who think that women have plastic surgery, in this era, let alone plastic surgery, even hyaluronic acid is rare.
And even if it's plastic surgery, it's impossible to get it all done.
Moreover, Wei Xiong's mother Lin Xueli is 51 years old this year, but her skin is firm and fair, her figure is graceful, and she doesn't even have crow's feet on her face.
It looks like a stunning young woman in her thirties and five-fifths.
Therefore, some media speculated whether the Wei family had any secret recipes for beauty. After all, the ancestor of the Wei family is a genuine imperial doctor.
Maybe it really retains the beauty secrets of the ancient queen concubine.
After coming to the stage, Wei Xiong first walked onto the stage and gave a short speech, mainly welcoming the arrival of King Bhumibol of Thailand.
and praised Bhumibol as a respectable king.
Bhumibol then took the stage to give a few words, thanking Wei Xiong for his hospitality and inviting Wei Xiong to visit Thailand again.
In the end, he used a slightly exaggerated expression to show that he was also fascinated by Wei Xiong's charm.
The dinner began with Wei Xiong and Bhumibol's mutual 'tout'. First of all, Wei Xiong introduced Li Ka-shing, Stanley Ho and others to Bhumibol.
To be honest, although there are a lot of people who came tonight, there are really not many who are worthy of being introduced to Bhumibol by Wei Xiong.
