Chapter Ninety-Four: Dialogue

The 90s were a golden age, especially when it came to financial crisis-related earning opportunities. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 The crisis of the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990~1991, the European currency crisis in 1992~1993, the Mexican financial crisis in 1994~1995, the Asian financial crisis in 1997~1998, the Russian financial crisis in 1998~1999, and the Brazilian financial crisis in 1999~2000.

In 1997, the world's opportunities to make money were not only the Asian financial crisis, but also the Russian capital market. After Russia's "shock therapy" reform in early 1992 and its continuous decline in production in 1996, then-Prime Minister Chernomyrdin was determined to change this situation by opening up Russia's capital market and bringing in foreign investment.

Since 1996, when the stock market was opened to foreign capital, people were optimistic about the Russian financial market and invested in the stock and bond markets one after another, because of the great potential for stock price growth and high rate of return. The par value of Russian stocks is set very low, with an average value of only 50 cents to 4~5 US dollars, and the average return on stocks is more than 1 times; The rate of return on treasury bonds is also more than 20%, and 80% of them are short-term treasury bonds of 3~4 months, which are cashed out quickly.

From a historical point of view, the short-term prospects of the Russian capital market are very good, at least 30%~40% of the benefits can be obtained in a short period of time, and if you borrow a certain amount of leverage, you may earn more.

Liu Si did not intervene at this time mainly because he did not have much capital, and wanted to invest in the Southeast Asian foreign exchange futures market and the Russian capital market with two minds, and more than 10 billion US dollars was not enough; Secondly, this time in the Russian crisis, he Liu Si does not want to penetrate too deeply, he needs Putin's friendship.

The ability of a country should not be underestimated, especially as a superpower, Uncle Sam's power has been small for half a year, and he has seen it intuitively.

"Brother Li, you're finally here." After more than half a year of research, Robin Li finally got the patent for hyperlink technology, and Liu Siyi was very happy to learn the news, and the Baidu search engine had hope to come true.

Traffic, Entrance, Content. The most important of the three Internet keys is definitely the era when content is king, after all, there are not many Internet users and not many websites in this era, only 70 million Internet users and more than 20,000 websites.

With the development of the Internet and the progress of human science and technology, the entrance is more important, and his user stickiness is not lower than QQ, especially the brand name of Baidu is even rarer.

"Boss, I got a patent!" Robin Li smiled happily because the patent may not be his own, but the name of the owner on it reads China Baidu Search Engine Technology Co., Ltd.

"Not bad. Get in the car! We're going to have a good meal together. "Let Robin Li fly directly to Singapore is Liu Si's last resort, the current things in Singapore are very important, he can't leave, naturally Robin Li wants to return to China to start Baidu search engine technology company needs to go to Singapore to find Liu Si to get funds.

"Mr. Liu, take the liberty to excuse me!"

"You are?" Liu Si turned his head depressedly and looked at an unknown guy chanting his name.

"In 1927, my grandfather immigrated to Hong Kong, and my ancestral home was Suzhou, Jiangsu, and my name was Luo Zhijie." Luo Zhijie stretched out his right hand and shook Liu Si's hand, then smiled, "Mr. Liu doesn't invite me to join me?" ā€

"I don't want to do that."

Liu Si's approach was very unexpected by Luo Zhijie, he is also Chinese, don't you want to have tears in his eyes, at least don't hurt people's hearts so directly!

"Mr. Liu, this meal is indispensable to me." Luo Zhijie said very firmly.

"Tell me why!"

"If Mr. Liu had rejected me thousands of miles away, perhaps tomorrow the world's leading news media would have reported on Mr. Liu's forward positions in the currencies of Southeast Asian countries." Luo Zhijie seemed to be saying something inconsequential, and his smile still appeared on his face like a demon.

"What will Mr. Luo say again? I don't understand. Liu Si would definitely not admit his position, and flatly denied it.

"Really? Squeak squeak...... $100 billion, that's a lot of money! Luo Zhijie lit a cigarette and took a beautiful puff.

Liu Si did not increase his position on a large scale for a while, and now that the Thai baht has fallen below 26, the danger of increasing his position again has increased dramatically, but he can't help but still invest $10 billion in pesos, rupiah, and ringgit.

According to history, in the first two weeks of May, the Thai government invested a total of 26 billion US dollars in all remaining foreign exchange reserves at one time, and when the foreign exchange spot and futures markets were trying to stabilize the exchange rate of the Thai baht, the impact was too great, resulting in the return of the Thai baht in early May, stabbing the exchange rate of 24 to 1 US dollar in one fell swoop, appreciating by nearly 10%. This situation will definitely be margined again, so he needs to keep enough funds to prevent being liquidated.

"Who the hell are you?" Liu Si frowned, since the other party had already found out his identity and status, then he no longer concealed it, and asked directly to the point.

"Me?" Luo Zhijie pointed to himself, "Have you ever heard of the Commercial Crime Investigation Bureau of the Royal Hong Kong Police Force?" ā€

"Oh, I'm a little person who actually alarmed this big Buddha. But I really don't know where to sin? "Businessmen have not liked to deal with officials since ancient times, and Liu Si is no exception.

"It is true that Mr. Liu did not commit a crime, but Mr. Liu's actions harmed the interests of certain countries." Luo Zhijie extinguished the cigarette butt and threw out a parabola, which fell accurately into the garbage can on the side of the road.

"Certain countries?"

"I'm also employed by the CIA."

Speaking of which, Liu Si should have almost understood the essence of the matter. Glancing at the noisy crowd around him, he invited Luo Zhijie to get into his treasure car.

"Mr. Luo found me, please tell me straight to the point." Before he got the status of an equal dialogue with the big powers, Liu Si asked frankly without conspiracies.

"Doesn't Mr. Liu think that he has too many forward positions in the foreign exchange market?" Luo Zhijie pointed to the problem itself, he worked in the Commercial Crime Bureau and his achievements in economics were very high, and he was also surprised by Liu Si's current foreign exchange forward position of US$100 billion, and being able to be sent to meet Liu Si is enough to show that he is not low.

"$100 billion is not much, if it weren't for the lack of money, the position would be more than that."

Luo Zhijie grinned, 100 billion US dollars is not much, he just wants to scold his mother in his heart, "Mr. George John Tenet doesn't have so much money, so he's jealous of you." ā€

"It's not good news to be remembered by the director of the CIA." Liu Si told it exaggeratedly, and his body movements were also very rich.

"I think so, too, and Mr. Tenet thinks that Mr. Liu should appropriately reduce his position." Luo Zhijie said slowly.

"Do you think it's better to give up your position to Soros and Julian Robertson?" Liu Si was very depressed, although he could not and could not achieve the extent that the national forces and the forces of big business could not find out his details, but as soon as the CIA found him, he threatened him with intelligence, which made him extremely unhappy.

"Indeed, Mr. George John Tenet is dreaming of this!"

"Why should I listen to the CIA?"

"The Yankees think the world is theirs, and it seems that what Mr. Liu is doing is digging into the corners of the Yankees." Luo Zhijie's words were very contemptuous, "Of course, Mr. Tenet's original words were, 'This monkey has seriously damaged the interests of our United States, and must be sanctioned, must be sanctioned!'" ā€™ā€

"I'm hurting the interests of the United States? Oh my God, this Mr. Tenet must not have woken up, I am just a normal investment, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia, Taiwan and the United States have a half-dime relationship? If Liu Si goes to Hengdian, there may be a good way out, "By the way, is the monkey talking about me?" ā€

"To this day, Mr. Tenet's roar lingers in my ears." Luo Zhijie took out a box of chewing gum and distributed it to everyone, "Let's get down to business!" Mr. Liu, what do you think of Mr. Tenet's suggestion? ā€

"I want to climb the window to look." Perhaps it was because the Internet was too deeply poisoned in the previous life, and the export became a chapter, "Director Tenet wants me to give up my position, does it require me to go long baht?" President Clinton seems to be pursuing a strong dollar policy, and Director Tenet asked me to go long the baht, which is contrary to the will of President Clinton. Remember that Director Tenet is a close confidant of President and Mr. Clinton, but how can you look at it like a demolition? ā€

Luo Zhijie rolled his eyes, he knew a little about the Yankees' arrangement in Southeast Asia, otherwise he wouldn't know how to carry out the task?

"Mr. Liu's words can't prevaricate Mr. Tenet."

"Mr. Clinton's strong dollar policy can only be achieved by weakening the mark and the yen, and of course this has already been achieved. A stronger dollar means a stronger currency pegged to the dollar, which can be a disaster for countries whose value is pegged to the dollar, especially those whose economic growth is driven by exports and foreign investment. What are some countries like this? Mr. Luo, you don't need me to say it explicitly! ā€

Liu Si glanced at Luo Zhijie, "Especially after 30 years of rapid development, the four little dragons and the four little tigers have no value-added power, as can be seen from the annual government gazette data of Southeast Asian countries last year." Coupled with Chinese mainland's three-link and one-level policy, capital that cannot be earned in Southeast Asian countries will flow to Chinese mainland, and the most important thing is that the development of these four tigers and four tigers is basically developed by foreign capital, accounting for more than 70% of domestic capital. ā€

"Attacking these countries requires an urgent wool harvesting operation. If you miss this store, you'll never have a chance. I made an investment at my own discretion, and Mr. Tenet was too lenient. If the same sniping of the Thai baht as I guessed would trigger an Asian financial turmoil, then the benefits would be in the trillions of dollars, and I would make a little money, and Mr. Tenet shouldn't be so petty! ā€

"I also know your purpose, with my last worth of only a few tens of billions of dollars, I absolutely can't interfere, and I can't rob you of financial control, in this case, why don't we cooperate happily?"

Luo Zhijie listened to Liu Si's analysis, but he was impressed by it in his heart, and responded: "Mr. Liu is really talented, I admire him!" ā€

"Uncle Luo still call me Sisi!"

"Am I that old?"

"I'm not old, who said that Brother Luo is old and I am in a hurry."

"You kid, as a compatriot, Brother Luo supports your decision." Luo Zhijie thought that Liu Si was only 14 years old on the CIA investigation data, and couldn't help but think about making friends, "Sisi has returned to Hong Kong to inform me, I will make a good meal of Hong Kong food." ā€

"Definitely, definitely." His mind turned, and Liu Si also replied, "Brother Luo, when you reported to the top, you said that you just want to be a capitalist quietly and don't want to participate in any politics." But if Director Tenet must overpower people, I will have to put a color on myself. You have investigated me, and you should know that you can go straight to the Holy Hearing below! ā€

Luo Zhijie fell into deep thought when he heard this, and suddenly the car fell silent.
