Chapter 178: Poppies in the Financial World
Lu Shangwen always felt that things were a little strange when he thought about it, not that he was too sensitive and suspicious, but that this was a new and unfamiliar environment, and the Haig family was too complicated, even if he kept a hand because of this, Lu Shangwen had to be very careful......
Lu Shangwen wandered outside for a long time before going back, and after being pulled by Ollie to meet the two celebrities again, the two left......
After returning to the city from the hot spring villa, Lu Shangwen also asked about Cupbier's situation when Celine was away. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Cupier? It turned out that I was supposed to go to England for a long time, but I didn't come back for a long time, and I didn't have much friendship with him, so I didn't know him very well, but I heard that he was still a good person. Shang Wen, you ask him ......"
Lu Shangwen smiled and said:
"He should also do private equity, after all, he is also a competitor, so he understands the situation......"
Lu Shangwen saw that Mrs. Mei Dai had a good impression of Cupbil, so he naturally didn't say anything about the things he doubted, if there was nothing conclusive about such a thing, it would make people misunderstand if he said it.
Madame de nodded and talked about the recent situation in Greece.
Recently, there has been more news about Greece in the eurozone, and the Greek Ministry of Finance has also introduced a series of measures to reduce fiscal spending, fight corruption, and adjust taxes, of course, the most important measure for Greece to stabilize the market is to announce that the debt due in January will not seek an extension.
And the EU is not idle, because if Greece defaults, it will lead to a domino effect on major European banks, that is, drag down a large number of eurozone banks. The government bonds sold by Greece at the beginning of this century were either bought by the major banks in the eurozone or guaranteed by eurozone banks or insurance companies. Not to mention the European Central Bank, which makes multiple guarantees for Greece. In other words, in the case of Greece's debt, it is the future prospects of the eurozone that are playing out.
Therefore, the eurozone has to be saved, and in this context, the eurozone finance ministers' meeting proposed after some bargaining that 30 billion euros of funds can be used to solve Greece's urgent needs first, but this plan has been introduced for a long time, and the funds have not been in place for a long time.
"Why has this funding not been forthcoming?"
Madame de also did not understand this.
Lu Shangwen smiled and said:
"Eurozone finance ministers are cautiously optimistic that the crisis caused by Greek debt will not expand a lot, which is consistent with the IMF's judgment, so they feel that there is no need to be so anxious, and they can also negotiate with Greece to force Greece to take more measures to deal with the crisis, and more importantly, based on the above judgment, they want to use this opportunity to depreciate the euro moderately, for these countries in the eurozone, if the euro can reach one to one against the dollar, this is the most idealThe moderate depreciation of the euro can stimulate exports, which is conducive to the eurozone using exports to drive economic ......"
Lu Shangwen said and shook his head:
"The other eurozone countries are not focused on Greece, but on not allowing Greece to influence other eurozone countries too much. So this kind of rescue is in mind from the beginning, so it is difficult to really resolve the crisis, and it can only be a little delay in the crisis, such a foot pain and foot treatment assistance method, 30 billion? 300 billion is far from enough......"
Lady Mei Dai nodded and asked:
"What's next for Goldman Sachs? And what is the purpose of their president's visit to Greece? ”
Lu Shangwen smiled:
In fact, the president of Goldman Sachs went to Greece in November last year to talk about national bonds, and this time he went to Greece to talk about national bonds, and suggested that the Greek side should be bridged by Goldman Sachs to sell up to 25 billion national bonds to China, so that the market feels that Greece has no payment crisis. This is exactly what Goldman Sachs needs, so that it can be prepared more calmly......"
Lu Shangwen paused and said:
"Others still don't know that Goldman Sachs is too deep in this regard, but Greece is clear, Goldman Sachs' suggestion is to drink doves to quench thirst, and it will definitely not agree, and soon, a new rumor will appear in the market: China refuses to buy a 25 billion euro Greek government bond arranged by Goldman Sachs investment bank. In other words, Greece commissioned Goldman Sachs to arrange for it to find investors but could not find it, which clearly indicates that there is a problem on the Greek side.
If a country's national debt is unattended, it is the clearest sign that the country's financial credit system has collapsed, and Madame knows what it means......"
Lady Meada nodded:
"It means that the risk insurance in the market should be greatly improved. Against this backdrop, Goldman Sachs has emerged as a big winner: on the one hand, it can get more money by selling government bonds for Greece, and on the other hand, Goldman Sachs' 'credit default swap' insurance has risen sharply......"
Lu Shangwen said with a smile:
"After the president of Goldman Sachs leaves Greece, this card will be played soon."
Lady Mei Dai couldn't help but shake her head:
"I have to say that Goldman Sachs people are really terrible! It's a complete wanton toying with Greek ......"
Lu Shangwen nodded, Goldman Sachs is indeed too dark, just like a hungry woman who asks for excessiveness, to squeeze the last drop of blood from Greece, maybe Goldman Sachs is not called Goldman Sachs, it should be called the poppy in the financial world is more appropriate, it seems to be extremely beautiful, but it is actually infinitely poisonous......
While the two were talking, Celine answered the phone and walked over:
"Madam, Miss Angel is here, look ......"
Mei Dai nodded:
"Let her in."
Then he said to him:
"It's the personal assistant you entrusted me to help you find, you see if it's suitable or not......"
Lu Shangwen still needs to stay here for some time, and he still needs someone to help deal with a lot of affairs, of course, the main thing is that he is not willing to attend some more activities with Ollie, so he needs someone to deal with some personal affairs, which is also a good shield.
Lu Shangwen smiled:
"Madame's recommendation must be very appropriate."
While the two were talking, a tall woman knocked on the door and walked in, dressed in proper professional attire, with pale yellow hair thinner and softer than silk, the sunlight shining through the window like gold, and beautiful hair scattered over her body like a small brown waterfall. The waves are undulating and the golden light is glittering......
The overall beauty who looks very good and refreshing, Angel's basic situation Mrs. Mei Dai has been introduced, graduated from a famous university, can speak three Chinese, as for the appearance of people, Mrs. Mei Dai's vision is really good, and it seems that Mrs. Mei Dai really knows him better, belongs to the kind that he looks comfortable with......
