Volume XIII Chapter 29 Exchange Rate Fluctuations
Zhao Daxi shook hands with Wu Jiafeng and greeted him, but what he thought about was what kind of skill this person had, so Su He had to meddle in the diplomatic field that he was not good at. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info\、qb5.c0m/ There are definitely not many people who know this hidden story, if you really want to completely figure out what happened, I'm afraid you can only ask Su and himself.
Wu Jiafeng held his hand, and his face was still amiable: "Virtuous nephew, you have lost weight again." ”
Zhao Daxi was almost moved by his sincerity, and he didn't know what to think for a while.
Fortunately, Lei Yongqiang next to him helped him out in time: "It's good to lose weight, healthy, you said right, chief." ”
Wu Jiafeng let go of Zhao Xian's nephew at this time, and went to greet Lei Xian's nephew for a while, trying to make the scene as friendly and intimate as possible in front of the camera, so that it was convenient for photographers to take pictures. Zhao Lei and the two of them also know it, they really deserve to be veteran diplomats, they are very professional in both bearing and smile, and their every move seems to have been carefully designed and accurate, which is really much better than Vice Premier Su who has a rigid face and does not like to laugh.
In the afternoon, the Capitol Press Room.
Wu Jiafeng and Speaker Mbeit each stood on one side, held a press conference and accepted questions from reporters from various countries. Wu Jiafeng generously said that China would help build the new headquarters of the African Union in Ethiopia free of charge, and this generous proposal instantly attracted the sincere applause of Speaker Mbet next to him, and the entire press conference also burst into applause, and most reporters from central and southern African countries cheered.
Zhao Lei and the two of them saw this scene in the back row, and they knew more at a glance, compared with Wu Jiafeng's professional diplomatic style, the old chief Su He was much worse. Yang Su at least said one sentence correctly, Su He is really not good at communicating with people, especially with media reporters.
Su He still has the old concept of treating people with sincerity, and always thinks that he can use his sincerity to influence African brothers, which is still the old concept of decades ago. Wu Jiafeng is much better at handling this kind of foreign affairs than Vice Premier Su, at least he knows how to hype, and the benefits of a few billion yuan are given out in public at a press conference, which can naturally be exchanged for full applause.
At this time, Lei Yongqiang chuckled and spoke: "Guess how many days these billions can be hot?" ”
On such a formal occasion, Zhao Daxi also replied easily with a smile on his face: "It can be hot for a few days, it's not our turn to worry about this kind of thing." ”
Lei Yongqiang nodded slightly, and then said with a smile: "This time, Editor-in-Chief Shen can lose a few hairs, and the next issue of Voice of Africa magazine can be written." ”
Zhao Daxi smiled sincerely when he heard it, and it was right to think about it, it shouldn't be too difficult to run a magazine around such a meaningful and valuable theme, and Editor-in-Chief Shen could at least sleep for a few days. Anyway, it's a magazine for the heads of Kyozato, so it shouldn't be difficult to fool the past.
The two of them were watching this good show with great interest, and Xiao Feng squeezed into the crowd and whispered: "Brother Zhao, Brother Lei, Mr. Henry has arrived at the airport." ”
Zhao Daxi still wanted to continue watching the play, so he casually ordered: "You go and arrange it, say I'll be there in a while." ”
Xiao Feng nodded and led the people away, and Zhao Daxi turned around with a smile on his face, admiring the generous speech of the head surnamed Wu on the stage.
Moments later, the lounge.
Wu Jiafeng sat on the comfortable sofa, naturally unbuttoned his coat, and inadvertently showed a proud and arrogant expression, Zhao Lei and the two accompanied him, as if two outsiders were watching a monkey show, and really wanted to see what else this person could perform.
Wu Jiafeng chatted with the speaker first, and did not forget to turn back in his busy schedule, and asked with concern: "Daxi, Yongqiang, if you have something to do, just be busy, don't delay your business." ”
Zhao Lei and the two came back at the same time, this old fox should be weak-hearted, and he finally knew that he was weak when he was proud. In front of a group of senior South African government officials, Zhao Lei exchanged glances and got up to say goodbye, shouting at the same time in his heart that it was a pity, he didn't look at it.
Out of the Capitol, the two of them looked back at the flagpole and couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh. After laughing, the two of them put their shoulders on their shoulders, and under the stunned gaze of the guards around them, they suddenly laughed at the same time, as if they had just seen the funniest burlesque in the world.
Lei Yongqiang laughed so much that he coughed again and again: "I don't know what's wrong recently, I always cough." ”
Zhao Daxi put his arm on his shoulder and spoke sincerely: "Go to the hospital for a physical examination, it's better to die than to live." ”
Lao Lei, who has always been very resistant to going to the hospital, also nodded seriously and sincerely: "Yes, I think so too, let's go and investigate, and I can feel at ease if I am sick and treated." ”
Zhao Daxi couldn't help laughing when he heard it again, and walked to the car on his shoulder: "How did you get it like you have a terminal illness, don't worry, modern technology is so developed, as long as you have money, you can be saved from a terminal illness." ”
The two of them talked and laughed and got into the Mercedes-Benz, and they had already confused the guards in front of the Capitol building, and they couldn't understand what they were saying. Two days later, on the same day that Wu Jiafeng left for China from his state visit, the rand index suddenly fluctuated sharply for the first time since its establishment, and the South African rand suddenly rose sharply against the US dollar without warning.
At the close of the first day alone, it rose by almost three per cent to its highest level in two-and-a-half-year years, reaching an ultra-high price of 6.74 rand per dollar. On this night, the 28-story headquarters building of Beishan International Investment Bank was also brightly lit, and almost all the analyst staff were working overtime to analyze the reasons for the large fluctuations in the rand index during the day today.
In the luxury suite on the top floor with the door closed, there is a group of people drinking foreign wine and chatting. In addition to Zhao Lei, there were also Henry, vice chairman of the Federal Reserve, chairman of the New York Board of Trade, executive officer of the South African Financial Services Commission, and a number of senior members of the Venn Board of Governors. In the face of so many elites in the financial industry, Lei Yongqiang's palms were still a little sweaty when he participated in this kind of gathering for the first time.
Zhao Daxi was complacent with a glass of foreign wine, and gently kicked Lao Lei under the table.
Lao Lei was kicked by him and came back to his senses, and hurriedly spoke: "Gentlemen, according to our analysis, the rand exchange rate against the US dollar is likely to continue to rise in the next few days...... The reason for this abnormal fluctuation is that nearly $30 billion of international hot money flowed into the Johannesburg Exchange through unknown channels during the day today. The trouble is that if we are to reach further findings, we need congressional authorization and Mr. Sloan's full cooperation. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, even he himself felt a little weak, because the large fluctuations in the rand index during the day today were simply caused by the joint efforts of these people present. He knows best the source of the $30 billion hot money, and it was simply taken out by these people present.
Of course, the Sloan executive knew how to cooperate, and nodded cautiously: "Okay, Ray, I will do my best to cooperate with you." ”
Under the gaze of everyone, Lei Yongqiang also nodded stubbornly: "Okay, now there is only one last ** annoyance, the authorization of the Congress." ”
Zhao Daxi kicked him again quietly at this time, and Lei Yongqiang also realized that he had said too much, so he quickly shut up.
At this time, Mr. Henry, vice chairman of the Federal Reserve, shook his wine glass and said with a presumptuous smile: "Ray, you are worried too much, Madam Speaker will not let the rand exchange rate fluctuate like this again, Ray, believe me, she will soon come to beg you to intervene in the investigation, no one knows these stupid better than me, how can they understand financial exchange rates, you just need to meet the reporter tomorrow, tell the reporter what you just said, believe me, this group of stupid will kneel down and beg you." ”
With such a blatant remark, when it came to Lei Yongqiang's speechlessness, he was speechless, so he kept his mouth shut so as not to say too much and make more mistakes.
Although most of the people present were scumbags, they were all genuine elites in the financial industry.
The Sven-looking executive officer of Sloan also took the opportunity to remind at this time: "Zhao, Lei, you have to watch the Levante family closely, it is best to warn the Duke to reduce gold production, if you can persuade him to close one or two gold mines to create a little crisis, the effect may be more ideal." ”
Lei Yongqiang naturally turned his attention to Zhao Daxi, Zhao Daxi nodded and agreed: "The Duke will agree, he also has a lot of gold spot in his hand, as far as I know, the five major mining groups of the Levante family currently have at least two tons of gold reserves." ”
When everyone present heard the two tons of gold, their eyes burned, and they could not hide their covetousness.
Mr. Henry took a sip of foreign wine and scolded fiercely, "This old thing is cheap." ”
Zhao Daxi was still silent when he heard it, and he pretended not to hear it.
In the early morning of the next day, Lei Yongqiang, president of Beishan International Investment Bank, could not hide his tiredness and came forward to deal with reporters, deliberately creating a tense atmosphere. Zhao Daxi was standing in Lao Lei's office at this time, looking at the large group of business managers outside through the shutters, busy buying gold futures, ferrochrome futures, and various bulk non-ferrous metal futures from exchanges around the world through various channels.
With the sharp rise in the rand exchange rate, it can be expected that the international gold price in the next few days, the price of ferrochrome futures abundant in South Africa, will rise to a terrible high price, and the rand index that he spent more than half a year carefully building will soon become a real magic hand that turns stones into gold, although it is not glorious, but it can make the US dollar on the books of Beishan International Investment Bank obtain a staggering huge income.
The current rand index is like a huge gold-absorbing stone, attracting the burning attention of countless investors around the world, and in the next few days, more international hot money will continue to pour into South Africa, converging around the big gold-absorbing stone of the rand index, fueling the flames to help him speculate the rand to the US dollar exchange rate higher.
At the same time, on behalf of Speaker Mbet and Mr. President, the entire black government of South Africa is at a loss, and I am afraid that it will have to rely on the North Mountain International Investment Bank.
Sure enough, it was just after ten o'clock in the morning, and Ji Lin knocked on the door and reported: "Someone from the presidential palace is coming, please go with Mr. Lei." ”
