Zhao Guodong just smiled and took a sip of rum, but did not speak.

Looking around, the Club of America is still the same, the capital career always seems to be far away from him, every time he feels as if he wants to fit into this environment, he should leave, and this time he is afraid that it will be longer than the last time he left the Ministry of Energy, right?

Zhao Guodong doesn't like the twilight atmosphere of the Chang'an Club, and he doesn't appreciate the pretense elegance of the China Club, but the style of the American Club is simple and bright, and the audience is relatively broad. And some of the activities often held by the Club of the Americas are also very much in line with his appetite, such as the Guardian Lecture Hall, sometimes it is a topic of clocks and watches, sometimes it is a topic of calligraphy and painting, and listening to it there in his spare time can be regarded as increasing his knowledge, especially Zhao Guodong has some background in the category of antique cultural relics, and it is also very appetizing to encounter this kind of lecture.

"You just pretend to be as much as you like in front of me, I see how long you can hold it back, don't you just want to show off in front of me? Don't you just want me to ask you about the ambition in your chest? Yes, I really don't open my mouth today, what do you like, I'll be a clay sculpture Bodhisattva today, looking at the nose, looking at the heart, drinking" Lei Xiangdong looked at Zhao Guodong with a smile, and then ignored the other party, and drank by himself.

"To the east, as for it? If you want to hurt me, you won't be a lame excuse like this, right? Zhao Guodong shook his head and laughed, "When did I show that I want to roll up my sleeves and do a big job?" What's the matter, if you are allowed to take over the investment, I can't go back to Anyuan? ”

Lei Xiangdong did not hold the post of president of the International Development Bank for long, as the State Council appointed Lei Xiangdong as chairman of the board of directors of the company, and Central Huijin became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CIC.

Originally, Zhao Guodong may also become a non-executive director of CIC on behalf of the National Development and Reform Commission, but in view of the fact that Zhao Guodong's work will also change in this round of adjustment, Fu Quan will temporarily serve as a non-executive director of CIC on behalf of the National Development and Reform Commission.

"I thought that you could be a non-executive director, and we could also find more arguments on many topics, but I didn't expect you to be demolished, I am not very familiar with Fu Quan, it's a pity, I think it would be more suitable if you can continue to work in the NDRC for a year or two." Lei Xiangdong groaned: "Of course, you also need to seize the opportunity when it comes, at this time, you have to grasp whether the place is a disaster or a blessing, and you have to grasp it yourself, and outsiders don't count." ”

"I originally thought that if you continue to take over the International Development Bank, will our Anyuan enterprises go out to the outside world to get their hands on your light again, it seems that this is not to be counted on." Zhao Guodong also quipped: "CIC is strong, how do you plan to operate, I suggest one, you really have to feel that the capital is too sufficient, and buying gold has only benefits and no harm." ”

"CIC is not a central bank and has no such obligation." Lei Xiangdong said casually, then reacted and asked vigilantly: "Do you think there will be inflation, or will the dollar depreciate significantly?" ”

"Isn't the inflation trend evident now? How much is the change in housing prices enough to boost inflation expectations? As for the depreciation of the dollar, this is a long-term trend, and as the dollar depreciates, the price of bulk commodities will inevitably rise, and it will continue to drive inflationary pressures to further increase, so I say that there is no harm in buying gold. Zhao Guodong said calmly.

"So you spare no effort to promote resource-based enterprises to go global?" Lei Xiangdong nodded, "But now there is a risk of such a swarm of swarms pouring out. ”

"If you don't go out, you will pay a greater price in the future, and you may need to pay some tuition now, but in general, it is better to go out earlier than later." Zhao Guodong didn't want to argue more on this issue, Lei Xiangdong was still holding his idea of the president of the International Development Bank, worried that the demand for funds for domestic enterprises to go out on a large scale would put the China Development Bank under great pressure, and he was worried that there would be risks, which would lead to the loss of funds in the China Development Bank, but if you don't go out, the losses will be even greater in the future.

Lei Xiangdong thoughtfully, he is also facing huge pressure in charge of CIC, the country's foreign exchange reserves have been rising, but also to the preservation of foreign exchange assets has brought huge pressure, at present it seems that only US Treasury bonds can be dominated, European country bonds are even more unreliable, and such a huge amount of money does not find a suitable source, sooner or later there will be problems, but to this day, the country has no better strategy to deal with.

Zhao Guodong said that the purchase of gold is also a way to buy precious metals, but only a small part, otherwise with such a large foreign exchange reserves, I am afraid that the price of precious metals in the international market will soar, which can only be a long-term continuous and gradual process.

"Guodong, what are your plans for returning to Anyuan this time?" Ray shifted the conversation eastward.

"To be honest, now my eyes are black, I don't know what the situation is, and I can't talk about any plans, but I have a feeling that the original development model and work focus may need to be appropriately adjusted, which is not very suitable for the current national conditions and people's conditions, but I estimate that this is very difficult and may not be acceptable to many people." Zhao Guodong's face showed a touch of deep thought, "But some things must be done in advance, and I can only do my best." ”

"You're too pessimistic, aren't you? Anyway, you are also the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee and the governor, don't you even have a little autonomy? Lei Xiangdong was a little surprised, he felt that Zhao Guodong seemed to be a little lacking in confidence, this is rare, this has not yet taken office, he will discourage himself first, can it be said that Zhao Guodong also realized that his trip back to Anyuan was a lot of ups and downs?

"Hehe, of course there is autonomy, but to see what, some things, if the understanding is not in place, you will face countless opponents, they are the same vibrating, the same think they are right, this is not wrong, the key with the development of the times, understanding should also change, for a simple example, environmental protection and development, in the eighties and nineties, environmental protection is a rubber stamp, everything around the development plan, development is the last word This sentence swept across the country, but now it seems that the word development needs to be added with a modifierIt is more appropriate that sustainable scientific development is the last word. Zhao Guodong obviously remembered something, so he felt it, "But now the thinking of the central development has not been completely adjusted, or it has begun to adjust in terms of views and theories, but in actual operation, it is still in accordance with inertial thinking, so it is inevitable that there will be collisions between concepts, and contradictions will arise." ”

Lei Xiangdong nodded, agreeing with Zhao Guodong's point of view, the views need to be constantly adjusted and revised with the development of the times, just like the foreign exchange reserves and trade surplus, at first people also felt that the more the merrier, but with the economic development, the foreign exchange reserves soared, the trade surplus remained high, and the negative effects brought about by it also began to appear, domestic demand was sluggish, and the pressure on foreign exchange reserves was huge, and how to solve this problem became a major problem in front of the central government.

"See those two?" The middle-aged man with a high nose and blue eyes held a cigar in his hand and said lightly.

"Hmm, you see, what?" Another, slightly younger white man raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"Do you know either of them?" The middle-aged white man's slightly southern accent sounds nasal, but it doesn't affect anything.

"Oh, I don't know." The slightly younger white man shook his head a little embarrassedly, "In my eyes, these yellow people all look the same. ”

"Hehe, that's true, they must look at us similarly, that older man is one of the most powerful men in China's financial industry, the president of the International Development Bank of China, but this is already in the past, and now he is the CEO of China CIC, CIC, have you heard of it? The Chinese have just set up a state-owned holding company similar to Temasek, but unlike Temasek, it has deep capital and hopes to preserve the value of its assets through investment. The white man's eyes narrowed, as if pondering the two of them, "The other seems to be the deputy director of China's National Development and Reform Commission, and he is said to be going to the local area soon, and he is a person in the Chinese government who has some ability to call for wind and rain." ”

"You mean the guy who encourages Chinese capital to invest overseas, and at the same time vigorously advocates opposition to foreign capital entering Chinese companies?" The younger white man obviously had some impression of Zhao Guodong, "This guy has a strong nationalist sentiment, I heard that China's steel industry integration has triggered an iron ore storm, and it has something to do with this guy, he resolutely opposes foreign capital entering the steel industry, and Mittal Arcelor wants to enter Laigang, which seems to have been opposed by him." ”

"You're wrong, it's the Commerce Department that decides these things, but you're right, this guy has a lot of influence in it." The white middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction, "Dealing with these Chinese officials has to be both hard and soft, they have a good face, but they like to take advantage, whether it is official or private." ”

"Is that the same with this guy?" The young white man asked more.

"Hmm,?????? The middle-aged white man was obviously asked, intelligence from all sides showed that this young Chinese official was difficult to deal with, especially with natural vigilance and xenophobia, fortunately, this guy is said to be leaving the NDRC, which is good news, he shrugged, "This person is a little different, but fortunately he won't cause us trouble, in order to celebrate this news, we can have an extra drink tonight." ”
