Chapter 617: The Birth of a Nation (End)

On this day, the deployment of Ye Jingcheng and others has all been put in place. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

All the funds prepared by everyone earlier were pooled, and Ye Jingcheng alone raised nearly 3 billion US dollars, including his own 2.2 billion US dollars, 500 million US dollars sponsored by Li Jiacheng and others, and 25 million US dollars from Jiang Xiaoyong on behalf of the Duwan Finance Committee.

Warren Buffett's fundraising was only 200 million less than Ye Jingcheng's, and he raised 2 billion US dollars with his own skills. The rest of Soros also made a contribution, and the fame he broke through in the past few years raised him nearly half a billion dollars.

The total amount of funds raised reached $54.5 billion, and the first step in the plan was to convert all the funds into the German mark currency at the exchange rate of 0.92:1:2.4 between the dollar and the pound sterling and the mark.

At the same time, the two teams of Ye Jingcheng and Warren Buffett entered the stock markets of various member states of the European Community, first buying $500 million in British stocks, and then shorting the stocks of Germany and France and buying bonds of the two countries, and by the way, buying a large number of Italian lira currencies.

In the end, Italy was used as a breakthrough point, and a large number of previously purchased lira currencies were sold, coupled with a series of fanning the flames, which immediately caused panic among people about the weak currency in Europe.

Sure enough, the pound began to fall on the day. In order to save the market, the English Securities Exchange bought 3 billion pounds through the Bank of England, but the result could only be maintained at an exchange rate of 1:2.37.

Don't underestimate the difference of just 0.03, the currency between a country, even if it is only a difference of 0.001, will not represent a fraction of the amount of money.

Just as the English Securities Office was rushing to deal with the trouble from the stock market, a situation occurred on the stock exchange that everyone did not expect.

"What's going on!"

"Is the computer broken?"

"How fast is the index of stocks jumping?"

"Hurry up and get a computer expert to come and check."

Computers that were supposed to replace human calculations and could convert data more quickly began to increase abnormally on the large screen. In the end, there was a complete black screen with a "Z", and then there was a scene of a big-mouthed monster eating Pacman.

After the incident, the term "computer virus" appeared for the first time.

And not only the stock market in England, but also the stock markets of various countries are experiencing this scene, because of this unknown attack, all countries have lost all computer data and information, resulting in a temporary loss of order in stock trading.

It is only Ye Jingcheng's team that trades normally in the most primitive way, grasps timely information through the telephone, calculates the price of each transaction through the abacus, and makes the most of the oil and water in the English stock market.

Although the English Securities Office reacted quickly, their means of dealing with it were far inferior to Ye Jingcheng, especially in the price calculation of each transaction. Although the abacus used by Ye Jingcheng's team is relatively backward, the number it calculates reaches 13 digits, and one abacus is not enough to add another one.

On the contrary, the English government lost its computer to process the data on its own, and they could only use a calculator to calculate the price, but the calculator only had 8 digits, and no matter how they calculated, they could only calculate tens of millions of digits.

At this time, only the staff can write through paper and pen, and often the calculator can only be rounded, and the losses caused are undoubtedly absorbed by Ye Jingcheng and others.

Seeing that the stock market could not be stabilized, the English Securities Exchange decided to raise the interest rate from 10% to 12% to defend the position of the pound. The Bank of England also took out a whopping $26.9 billion from the country's foreign exchange reserves to buy the pound.

The result was just in vain, Ye Jingcheng and others' funds were like snowballs, quadrupling from the original 5.45 billion, and then selling the pound with the momentum of a flood bursting the embankment, and the exchange rate of the pound fell instead of rising.

As a last resort, the English government raised interest rates again, from 12% to 15%. But in the eyes of Ye Jingcheng and others, this shows that the group of red-haired ghosts are on the verge of despair, so they once again concentrate funds to give a fatal blow.

The English government had no choice but to announce its withdrawal from the European Exchange Rate Mechanism. In addition to the pound sterling, which fell by 16%, the Spanish currency depreciated by 20%, and the Italian lira depreciated by 22%.

Of course, not all of the losses of these countries went into the pockets of Ye Jingcheng and others. In addition to them, there is also a large group of speculators who follow closely behind, biting off a piece of meat from these countries, but Ye Jingcheng and others are definitely the biggest beneficiaries.

The first few rounds of attacks alone have arbitraged nearly $20 billion for Ye Jingcheng and others. And the last round of attacks doubled that number.

Among them, 14.5 billion belongs to Buffett, Soros, Li Jiacheng and others each account for 1 billion, and Xiaoyong will receive 500 million. The rest of the bulk naturally belongs to Ye Jingcheng alone, and the interest with the principal is almost 23 billion as high as ten times the income.

At first glance, this number is not too impressive, but you must know that Switzerland, which is currently the world's top 20 economy, ranks 20th, with a GDP of only 100 billion. And the countries ranked outside the top 30 may not have as much GDP as Ye Jingcheng.

Comparing one's wealth with the GDP of a developed country doesn't mean how important it is? As long as he has this will, he will immediately become the richest man in the world.

However, this honor does not mean much to him, even if his personal total assets reach the first, and there are many wealthy consortia or families in this world, but he has at least one foot in this circle.

……

Hong Kong Island.

Once again, the members of the big gamer circle gathered, but this time before the meeting could begin, a group of uninvited guests were welcomed. The door to the villa was smashed open, and a large group of uniformed agents rushed in.

"We are agents of the Commercial Crime Bureau, and we have received a report that we suspect you of commercial crimes, so please go back and assist us in our investigation." The clerk didn't say much, and directly showed his ID and raised his hand to arrest him.

"What are you doing!"

"Who gave you the right to arrest people?"

"I'm going to sue all of you for being good at private houses and illegal detention."

"Wait, I was having tea with your chief superintendent yesterday."

Seeing that everyone was unwilling to cooperate, the section officer walked up to He Shijian, who took the lead, and said: "He Sheng, this is an arrest warrant approved by the police department, I think you had better cooperate with us, there is no need for us to violently enforce the law." ”

"It's okay for me to go with you, but what about the people? Why catch them? He Shijian pointed to the side, and it was Li Jiacheng and others who were standing on the side watching the play. The four of them not only did not have agents come forward to arrest them, but on the contrary, they talked and laughed with each other.

"He Sheng, you can't even see such an obvious thing?" Li Jiacheng uncovered the mystery and said with a smile: "Aren't the people who report you just a few of us." ”

"What's in it for you!?" He Shijian almost roared.

"There are many benefits, since you are in the past, we will naturally replace you." Lee Shau-kee on the side accosted.

"You! You ......" He Shijian was frustrated, and it took a while to straighten out his language, and threatened: "Don't let me have a chance to come out, I will definitely not let you go." ”

"You still want to come out after you go in? In the past, you said that your family is big and your business is big, and you can get rid of the lawsuit by hiring a few lawyers. Right now? The English stock market you rely on has collapsed, do you still have the money to hire a lawyer? Guo Desheng sneered.

"You guys! You ......" He Shijian became more and more excited the more he spoke, he didn't expect that he would not be able to pass away when he was old, and his blood pressure suddenly soared and he fainted.

Seeing this group of people being taken away by the police, Zheng Yutong raised the wine glass in his hand and celebrated: "From today onwards, the four of us will be the new four families, and in the future, Hong Kong Island will be decided by the four of us." ”

Li Jiacheng shook his head and said noncommittally: "It's not that simple, unless that person doesn't come back." ”

And the person in Li Jiacheng's mouth did not return to Hong Kong Island. And that person's property on Hong Kong Island was also handed over to a trustworthy person to take care of.

To be precise, after the incident of the downfall of the Bank of England ended, Ye Jingcheng gradually faded out of the sight of the masses, and few people even knew his specific whereabouts. It was not until the day of the unification of East and West Germany that Berlin's border areas adjacent to the Czech Republic were ceded.

At the same time, a state on the scale of a small town and exercising a monarchy was born......
