Chapter 276 of the text Capital Winter, Trembling World

Next chapter

(Two more today!) ）

Compared with China's active capital market, the capital markets of other countries in the world are shrouded in the shadow of danger, and everyone who walks in the capital market is cautious. ↑，.

England, in a luxuriously furnished home.

Old John had just gotten up, sitting in front of the computer, staring blankly at the signals of the rapid decline of stocks on the screen in front of him, and his face was getting more and more ugly.

He hurriedly picked up the heart medicine next to him and took a tablet, and the painful look on his face looked a little better.

This situation has been going on for half a month. Because in the past half month, the stocks invested in the fund he manages have been depreciating rapidly, and the stocks he invests in are car companies and energy stocks.

The fund he manages is the British Rail Workers' Superannuation Fund, which is the pension of all railway workers across the UK, amounting to hundreds of millions of pounds, including his pension.

Since he managed the fund, he has reaped a lot of returns, of course, the kind of shady returns, taking kickbacks from banks and some companies, and living like a rich man.

But now, even if he spit out all his illegal gains in the past, he can't make up for one percent of this loss, and the thought of those losses makes him tremble!

Energy stocks and auto stocks have shrunk by 50% in just over half a month!

The decline is so big that it exceeds everyone's expectations, it can be called the most terrifying capital crisis in history, and it has caused a sell-off frenzy of all stocks in the entire stock market, except for a few high-tech stocks that are still strong, almost all other stocks are falling and falling again and again!

John's pension fund lost more than 60 percent, and hundreds of millions of pounds disappeared in his hands. The problem is that he can't withdraw money at all, which means that there are theoretically 200 million pounds left in this pension fund, but they are all trapped stocks, and there is almost no pound of cash.

Now the stock market has begun to have a crazy trend, and many relatively large capital is difficult to withdraw. Those retail investors are frantically withdrawing, so the stock markets all over the world are selling orders, not buying orders.

In the past few days, those large funds have not started to withdraw together, so the result is now an even more terrifying decline. The wealth of all funds will shrink even more strictly!

Ahem, ahem, ahem.........

Old John coughed sharply at the thought of the terrible consequences.

Jingle Bell ......

At this moment, the phone rang.

Old John hurriedly picked up the phone and hurriedly said, "How is the situation?" Did our stock sell? ”

There was silence on the phone, and the other party was a fund manager. It was also his own nephew, and he said with a trembling voice: "Uncle John, our funds can't be withdrawn, and now there are lists of selling stocks everywhere, and no one recognizes them at all." Our stock is a big order again, no one will want it! ”

John felt his heart twitch, hurriedly swallowed a pill again, and said in a deep voice, "Did you contact those companies?" What about their shareholders? Does anyone want our stock? ”

The manager said helplessly: "It's useless, uncle, I contacted several shareholders of Volkswagen and General Motors. None of the other shareholders want to buy shares now, and other shareholders want to sell shares. The board of directors advised us not to rush to sell our shares, and the new energy vehicle research institute in which they invested has already entered the formalities. But damn it, they don't even know how long it will take to get the product out there. Chinese auto companies on the other side of the Pacific have determined that a large number of new energy vehicles will be launched in two years. ”

"Now except for the stocks of Chinese automobile companies, all other automobile companies and energy company stocks can no longer be thrown out, and everyone knows that in new energy vehicles, Chinese are ahead!" The only thing left of the car companies in Europe, the United States and Japan is the brand and management experience, which is already technically equal! ”

Under the opening of the new energy era. The internal combustion engine of the past will be completely eliminated, and the technical heritage of the internal combustion engine developed in several countries such as Germany and the United States, as well as Japan, will become a pile of scrap iron, in addition to being included in history. There is no point left.

In terms of electric drive technology, the gap between everyone is not large.

Therefore, no one in the entire stock market believes that several major automobile groups in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea still have the opportunity to turn around in the new energy vehicle project, so the consequence is that it will be surpassed by Chinese automobile companies, and China's new energy companies can continue to supply new energy at that time, and the advantage will be infinite.

Everybody knows that. The new energy research institutes established in Europe and the United States have just begun to formalize, and it is not known how long it will take for the products to be produced, and even if the products are produced, no one will believe that the energy tree that can threaten China will be released.

The way trees are planted in the desert to produce energy is really devastating.

Several major automobile groups and energy groups in Europe, the United States and Japan will all be left behind at that time.

Now perhaps the only life-saving straw that still saves these major car companies is the ban on magic energy technology by various countries, forcing China's advanced products to be sold in China and not appearing in markets such as Europe, the United States and Japan, so as to maintain the basic operation of their automobile and energy industries!

Otherwise, if the new products of Magic Energy Technology are allowed to hit the European, American and Japanese markets, they will be unable to resist at all, and they will be in danger of disappearing completely within ten years.

The disappearance of the automotive industry and the energy industry?

This is an outcome that is unacceptable to any one country.

Therefore, I don't know how long this ban order against Wang Xiao and Magic Energy Technology will last.

It's the information age, and any information spreads quickly around the world, so almost everyone who pays attention to information knows these things.

John's nephew thought about it, but there was no way to solve the current problem, and said helplessly: "Uncle, I think we should contact the government now and apply for government trusteeship......

Bang......

There was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground on the phone.

But on the other side, Old John's heart was completely overwhelmed, he fell to the ground, his body convulsed, and he lost signs of life in a short time, he did not dare to face the tens of thousands of railway workers across the country, let alone the review of the British judicial department!

An hour later, the British Rail Pension Fund officially applied to the British government for trusteeship, in fact, this is bankruptcy liquidation, but this is a public fund, so the way is different, and this matter immediately appeared in the financial newspapers of the United Kingdom and even countries around the world.

After all. This thing is typical!

Naturally, the British railway workers who were directly affected protested strongly, and groups of railway workers were quickly organized to carry out a general strike, and hundreds of railway workers took to the streets of London to roam around, holding banners and shouting in protest. Ask Downing Street to compensate them all back!

The British Prime Minister immediately held a press conference and promised all the railway workers that the matter would be properly resolved, which was a temporary calming of the anger and fear of the railway workers.

But.

This is just the beginning, and the promises made by the British Prime Minister are not destined to be fulfilled.

Because, the next day something big happened.

United Kingdom. France, Japan, the United States and several other representative capital-developed countries have completely broken out of a large-scale financial crisis, and the stock market is miserable, except for high-tech stocks, all other stocks are falling in an avalanche.

All industries related to car companies and energy companies have begun to cut production and lay off employees, because products cannot be sold, a large number of heavy industry workers have lost their jobs, and then major funds have gone bankrupt.

In just one day, hundreds of large and small funds in Europe, the United States, Japan, South Korea and other countries that rely on heavy industry and energy companies have gone bankrupt and collapsed. And millions more unemployed workers.

This time, even Wall Street in New York, the United States, which is known as the financial heart of the world, cannot stay out of the situation, but has the most serious losses. The famous Goldman Sachs investment on Wall Street almost went bankrupt, losing as much as $3 billion, and Morgan Bank lost more than $5 billion......

There are countless bankrupt middle classes in the United States......

The entire market in Europe, America, Japan and South Korea has shown a depression, in this case, high-tech products naturally cannot be sold, and the product sales of major electronic high-tech companies have also declined, and the chain effect is that stocks have also fallen......

All markets except China are signs of a cold winter!

The New York Times: This is something even more scary than Black Friday because of the onslaught of Chinese new energy companies. Car companies and energy companies around the world are facing closure.

Tokyo Daily: This is a conspiracy of the Chinese, we should stick to it, we cannot fall. We should call on Japanese people across the country to donate to Toyota and support Toyota's research and development of its own new energy vehicles. As long as our new energy vehicles appear, we can beat the technology of the Chinese! The emperor now began to drink porridge and eat pickles, and he donated all his pocket money......

Korea News: Hyundai and Kia, the two major car companies, have shrunk by 47 percent in market value and 70 percent in sales, and now they can only be sold in their own countries, and their overseas markets have almost disappeared. The automotive industry is about to enter a cold winter. South Korea's economy can only rely on the electronics industry led by Samsung and LG, and I hope that the Android Alliance can defeat China's magic energy software and bring new hope to the Korean economy!

The Sun: There has been a new investment boom in China, led by new energy, with more than 150 new energy downstream product companies established in two days, with an investment of more than 50 billion pounds. And what about us? What should we do if our downstream industries for automobiles and energy services are going out of business, our funds are going bankrupt in the stock market, and we're losing millions of people?

The media in France, Germany and other European countries were all kinds of pessimism, everyone seemed to be unable to find the direction of life, and the cathedrals were overcrowded for a while.

They were stunned by the financial crisis that swept the world.

This is more than all the financial shocks they have seen in the past, and it is also more tragic than they can imagine.

Or it can be said that this is not a financial crisis, but the industrial transformation caused by the drastic changes in real enterprises is more accurate, which affects the entire capital market.

The two industries of automobiles and energy are not like banks, these two industries are one of the fundamental industries in Europe and the United States, affecting all aspects of society. If these two industries are eliminated in technology, then there is no way to make up for it, but to frantically invest money to catch up with technology, there is nothing else that can be operated, so the entire automobile energy market collapses, and all the capital in Europe, America and Japan has no way to solve the financial crisis.

For a technology industrial company, the fluctuation of stock prices is the least important, and that is the normal choice of financial markets. But once there is a technical problem, it is a big problem, marking that it is about to be eliminated from the market and threatened by opponents.

Therefore, when the financial crisis swept the world, the United States, Japan, European countries, and so on could not do anything about it.

Unless, their people are willing to pay for cars again, consume petroleum energy, and let the turnover of these auto energy companies recover again.

However, this is obviously not possible.

This is because most of the eyes of the people in Europe and the United States are aimed at China.

There, a technological revolution is taking place that will change the world.

There, it seems, is about to become the center of the world. (To be continued.) )
