Several people here attach great importance to this exchange, after all, this exchange is to a large extent related to whether the two aspects can be completely integrated with each other in the future. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

On the one hand, it is a matter of whether the small interest group to which Bush Sr. and Julian belong can be sincerely recognized by Zhang Junyi, and on the other hand, it is a matter of whether Zhang Junyi himself can truly gain a sense of existence from this interest group, and whether this interest group can bring him benefits that suit his own.

Bush Sr. even made a self-deprecating joke about himself to ease the atmosphere before starting a real exchange, whether the joke was really ridiculous or not, but the purpose of livening up the atmosphere was indeed achieved.

To tell the truth, Zhang Junyi also sincerely admires the ability of American politicians, and the way American politicians act and the Chinese officials are indeed really different.

In the United States, politicians, in order to achieve a certain goal, they are indeed quite open at some times, but this method has to admit that it is quite effective, and Bush Sr.'s small self-deprecation has laid a good foundation for the next friendly exchanges.

Maybe Julian saw that the atmosphere was good now, so he introduced the topic in the direction of the two of them's good at finance, he leaned on the sofa and sat up a little straighter, and said with a smile: "Zhang, through our channels, I learned that you obtained the so-called first pot of gold in your life at that silver feast two years ago, and I admire your operation in that action, to put it mildly, even if you count the action in the oil market some time ago, I've always thought that your Silver Wednesday action was your pinnacle of genius! ”

"Can you tell me how you judged at the time, to be honest, I was really curious, after all, in that operation, it was too late when I judged that I was ready to enter, to be honest, I was really curious!" Julian was indeed a little incarnated at this time for the sake of curiosity, and did not feel inferior or embarrassed because he said his troubles.

Zhang Junyi held a wine glass in one hand and heard Julian? Robertson's question was not answered immediately, but he shook the wine glass in his hand slightly, took a sip, and pondered for a moment.

For Julian? Robertson knew what he had gained from the Silver Wednesday operation two years ago, and Zhang Junyi was not surprised, let alone angry that someone was secretly investigating him.

This is not that Zhang Junyi has a good temper or anything, after all, this powerful interest group wants to absorb himself into the core, and if he does not investigate his ability and strength in advance, then even Zhang Junyi has to consider whether he wants to join it.

After all, a certain group or organization that Zhang Junyi wants to join is looking for a strong backer in the United States who can develop for himself in the world's largest power, if this group or organization can't even investigate some of its details in the past few years, then Zhang Junyi will have a big question mark in his heart about the strength of this group or organization.

Of course, this is not to say that individuals can investigate themselves secretly, if it is any malicious organization or individual who wants to think that he is a soft persimmon with bad intentions to investigate himself, Zhang Junyi will also let those people know that they are not easy to mess with, it's just a big deal, after all, even if the industry is ruined now, it is not difficult to know the general trend of development in the next many years, and the large amount of money in his hands to make a comeback.

But Zhang Junyi will never fight each other like this if he does not reach the situation of incompatibility, after all, Zhang Junyi knows that what he lacks most now is time, as long as he gives himself a few years of development time, he will definitely not be in the current situation in a few years, after all, the biggest speed of sound that restricts the development of an enterprise or organization is money, and it just so happens that Zhang Junyi does not lack the most is US dollars.

This is also the reason why Zhang Junyi is quite low-key even when he comes to the United States, even if he has a lot of dollars in his hands, he did not rush into a certain field to grab food with those predators, but started from Hollywood, and then prepared to break the ice in the entertainment and media field, which is relatively not particularly important.

Of course, the lack of attention in the field of entertainment and media is only relative, Zhang Junyi knows that it is impossible for him to become a dominant family like in Xiangjiang, even if he wants to develop into one of the top forces in the media field, this road is also very difficult for him now.

To tell the truth, because of the decades of dick silk experience in his previous life, the biggest benefit for Zhang Junyi is a big heart that can be jealous and forbearing, and he can survive the decades of life when he has no money in his pocket in his previous life, compared to his previous life, Zhang Junyi's life in this life is undoubtedly much better, what is there not to be satisfied with.

Therefore, the life experience of the bottom of the society for many years in the previous life undoubtedly makes Zhang Junyi's current style of doing things completely interested, when I am weak, Zhang Junyi will definitely be jealous and low-key, and Zhang Junyi will not feel ashamed because of this.

What's more, some of Zhang Junyi's things are not particularly hidden, if he wants to gain the respect of some people, Zhang Junyi can't cover everything quite tightly, after all, sometimes some of his abilities are also a kind of deterrent.

Although Zhang Junyi did not answer Julian's question immediately, everyone present was not in a hurry, but quite patiently sat on the sofa and waited with a smile.

After all, any one of the three people here is an upper-level figure in the United States, and even Allen, who has the lowest status, is also the vice president of Citibank's head office, and his low status is only relative to the core tasks of the two interest groups of Bush Sr. and Julian.

Zhang Junyi organized the language for a while, and then said with a smile: "Julian, in fact, I am not as powerful and magical as you said, you were not by my side at the time, if you were on the scene at the time, you would know how worried I was at that time, to be honest, that action was the most uncertain one among so many financial market actions, as it is said, even the action of the oil market some time ago is not comparable!" ”

Zhang Junyi said that there was a trace of fear on his face, as if reflecting his mood at that time, he took a big sip of champagne in the glass, Zhang Junyi continued: "To be honest, I didn't even have a five-point grasp of the situation at that time, that action was definitely a gamble for me, I can get a lot of start-up capital if I win, and if I lose, I have nothing at all, you know, the funds in my hands at that time were only more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is impossible to have a complete industrial chain in Xiangjiang, So I didn't have any choice at all, after all, my background was just an ordinary family, but I could only rely on myself, no one could rely on me, no one could rely on me, no prominent background and no start-up capital, so I could only gamble on it! ”

"Hehe, if it were now, I would never have been able to participate in that operation, after all, the feeling of not being able to control the gambling of my own destiny is very bad, thank God, my luck is not bad, I won the bet at that time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do it in front of everyone now!" Zhang Junyi laughed self-deprecatingly.

The elder Bush, Julian, and even Allen, who were sitting next to Zhang Junyi, did not answer when they heard Zhang Junyi's words, but just raised the wine glasses in their respective hands and signaled to each other in the air, obviously waiting for Zhang Junyi's next words.

The four of them made a gesture of clinking glasses in the air, and each took a sip of champagne in the glass, and then Zhang Junyi continued to speak: "But if you talk about the reason why I made a move at that time, in fact, in that operation, I shorted the silver futures index after many considerations and estimates, and the collapse of the price of international silver also has great signs, but what I said just now is not sure because I used the maximum leverage that I could use at that time and the funds in my hands at that time were too small. That's why it was a gamble for me, and if I had changed to now, I would have been at least six points sure! ”

"After all, back in the 1960s, in order to alleviate the imbalance between the supply and demand of silver, your American government, oh! Or rather, our American government had to step in and sell 1.7 billion ounces of silver to the market from strategic reserves. At that time, the United States was on the "gold standard", which did not allow Americans to buy and sell gold, so it was believed that holding silver was the best way to prevent and combat inflation. Zhang Junyi said while patting his thigh.

For Zhang Junyi's timely adjustment to the American government, the elder Bush sitting in the middle immediately had a satisfied smile on his face, after all, Zhang Junyi's timely adjustment of the title of the United States just shows that Zhang Junyi's sense of nationality is not as strong as that of some other Chinese.

Of course, Zhang Junyi's style also has a lot of performance for the few people here, after all, seeking refuge in other people's countries, Zhang Junyi also has to do it as a last resort, and Zhang Junyi can only rely on the future when he is really strong enough to no longer be afraid, and then prove his red heart to his motherland.

Even at this moment, Zhang Junyi really realized the feeling of being in Cao Ying and being in Han during the Three Kingdoms period.

Zhang Junyi cautiously suppressed the restless and uncomfortable feeling in his heart with the champagne in his glass before continuing: "Because Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi announced in May 1973 that all foreign oil industries in Libya would be nationalized, making the oil tycoon Nelson? Buck? Since then, Hunter's Hunter family has been increasingly involved in the speculation of the financial markets. In 1973~1974, their Hunter family bought a large amount of silver. According to statistics published by futures exchanges at the time, the price of silver also rose from $2.5 per ounce to $6 per ounce in just a few months. Nelson? Hunter spent more than $100 million to buy more than 40 million ounces of silver, and at a time when the silver market had already seen a herd effect, the silver market exchange was full of speculators, and the price of silver was rising, but the Hunt family held its position. “

With these things that Zhang Junyi said, Julian, who was sitting on Zhang Junyi's right, also kept nodding, after all, these things are not difficult to investigate, but it is information that people engaged in finance can know with a little investigation.

"Because of our former Treasury Secretary of the United States, Jen? Connery was instrumental, and Hunt eventually established contact with Tehran's Arab magnates: a wealthy Arab businessman, two Saudi Arabian sheikhs, and several other billionaires. Hunter's brother William? Herbert? Hunter was also involved at this point. This alliance of Arabs and the Hunt family, under the name of an international metal investment company, is registered in Bermuda, a tax haven. In this way, their speculative funds were not regulated by the U.S. government, creating a command center for silver speculation in the United States. ”

"They are ready to hit the U.S. silver market. The silver price on the silver exchanges in New York and Chicago began to rise slowly, followed by a large increase in volume, with more than 8,000 futures contracts totaling 40 million ounces expiring in the fall of 1979 alone. The price is rising faster and faster. The Hunter family's insistence on the delivery of physical goods in accordance with futures contracts has reduced the amount of silver in circulation in the market, thus forcing the price of silver to continue to rise. “

"In the fall of 1979, the price of silver broke the record of $15 per ounce. The rich kept buying silver, bringing the already high speculative atmosphere to a boiling point. At this time, other speculators also participated in silver speculation, believing that the price of silver would continue to rise, and fueled the flames by buying silver. They are also starting to demand physical delivery. “

"- Some important trading companies and futures exchanges are beginning to run out of silver stocks. The silver market is in danger of running out of stock. By the end of 1979, the price of 1 ounce of silver had exceeded $30. At this time, many important trading houses and brokerage firms also turned to silver speculation. At $35 an ounce, Anger traded 19 million ounces of silver with the Hunter family. The scale of market speculation is evident. ”

"In fact, this speculation in silver is more like a game of drumming and passing flowers, or more like a bubble that is constantly blown by people, and when it exceeds the critical point, it 。。。。。。!" Zhang Junyi said as he gestured with his hand.

"Bang! The bubbles will explode! "Julian next to Zhang Junyi at this time? Robertson said with a smile.

"That's right, I analyzed through some news that the Hunter Speculative Group at that time had hoarded 200 million ounces of silver, with a total value of about $10 billion, these mercenary, insatiable conspirators are still not ready to stop, their crazy behavior, seriously disrupted the normal economic order of the silver market, just imagine what they did at that time will definitely anger the market!" Zhang Junyi continued with a smile.
