Chapter 553: The Interests of Both Parties

Chadnovsky looked at the angry Zhang Zijian with a slight smile on his face, a moment. Zhang Zijian said with a grin: "Tell me, I let you be like a partner, what good do we have." "Nope." Chadenovsky said lightly.

"I don't send it. An Qingzhong, inform our people, change places. After Zhang Zijian finished speaking loudly, he stood up directly, and was about to pack up his things, An Qingzhong looked at Zhang Zijian and was stunned for a moment, then immediately started to act, walked to the phone, and just picked up the phone.

Chadenovsky also stood up and said loudly: "Wait. Looking at An Qingzhong, he pressed down with both hands to prevent him from calling. After seeing that An Qingzhong did not move, he walked up to Zhang Zijian and said, "Hi, friend." It was just a joke. Let's talk about it. Zhang Zijian turned around, pointed his finger at Chadenovsky and said loudly: "When I am still a friend, do friends treat me like this?" Don't think you can threaten me if you know my secrets, I'm not afraid. ”

"Hey! Listen to me, although we are friends, but now that it is in the interests of the country, the affection of friends is no longer there, tell me about your request, I will try my best to meet you. After listening to his words, Zhang Zijian sneered: "Satisfy me, I don't have anything to want, if it's also a weapon, can you call the shots?" ”

"Weapons, huh! As long as it's not a big guy, it's easy to say. ”

"Aircraft carriers, strategic nuclear submarines, or MiG aircraft, the most advanced." Zhang Zijian still looked at Chadenovsky with a sneer.

"Didn't you just say that? As long as it's not a big guy, it's easy to say anything. Chadenovsky almost jumped up, does Zhang Zijian want something that can be sold?

"Since you don't sell it, then the oil, you control the oil." Zhang Zijian continued.

"You're such a fucking bastard. Hope you're not kidding, tricking me? After listening to Zhang Zijian's unreasonable request, Chadenovsky was really angry, and he didn't want to think about how he targeted Zhang Zijian just now.

Zhang Zijian shrugged his nose, and there was nothing to talk about. At this time, the girl brought by Chadenovsky said to Zhang Zijian: "Mr. Zhang, can I talk to you?" ”

"I don't talk to you, do you mean you're better than this piece of shit? Can you call the shots? Zhang Zijian looked at her and said with a chuckle.

"My name is Shavara, and I'm currently in charge of the UK's 3rd Intelligence Group, and there are some things I can call the shots.

I'm sorry for what you just asked, we can't call the shots, and even if we report your intentions, they won't agree to give you national strategic goods. Let's talk about the rest, if we block the profit of the Charts this time, we will give you two percent of the profit in return. ”

With a charming smile, Shawara looked at Zhang Zijian with a coquettish smell.

"It's only two percent, you're embarrassed Zhang.?" Zhang Zijian didn't shy away from her tender and seductive eyes and stared at her.

"It's enough percent, and looking for you to cooperate, it's also a fancy to the funds in your hands, and when the funds are combined, the winning situation is even greater, and we also have an expert group." As for who is the enemy and who is the friend in the end in this currency war, it completely depends on Zhang Zijian's meaning, or they are looking for the Americans to cooperate.

Chadenovsky lit a cigarette and took a deep breath and said, "Friend, think about it, I'll wait for your call." As he spoke, he took out a business card from his pocket, handed it to Zhang Zijian, and said to Shawara, "Let's go." ”

After the two left, Zhang Zijian returned to the sofa and lit a cigarette, An Qingzhong walked to his side and said, "Zhang Shuji." ”

Zhang Zijian waved his hand and didn't let him say the following words, but quietly thought about it just now, it was really too passive, Chadenovsky's appearance, it really surprised him, and disrupted his plan, two large sums of money together, you can stand in the open place with confidence, not afraid of any institution, but in this way, it is too dangerous, and there is a disadvantage, a large amount of money enters the market, other institutions will be cautious, and the British government will survive in the cracks, in this way, the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, The advantage of his yellow finch does not exist.

Can't partner with the Soviets, besides, the big brother just mastered the technology and controlled us back then? If something is wrong, I will give you a claw, and when you have two bullets and one star, don't you also hold us?

Can't give them a good look. This collaboration also cooperates.

Zhang Zijian stood up, walked to the wardrobe, picked up his coat and said to An Qingzhong: "Go, go to the company." ”

Then he turned his head and said to Kim Ji-sun: "Let's go out for a trip, and when we come back, you can order something to eat yourself." Seeing Jin Zhishan nodding slightly, Zhang Zijian opened the door and strode out.

When he came to the foreign trade company, Zhang Zijian called Chen Mingsheng to his separate office, and said, "We need to transfer positions." Britain itself is lost, and the people here are transferred to the bottom. We went to Germany. ”

Chen Mingsheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I was targeted by Soviet intelligence organizations, and their head in England was still an old friend of mine, and we talked. I don't want to be under their watch. Zhang Zijian said.

Chen Mingsheng was silent, thought for a while and said: "In this case, it's a bit troublesome, what do they ask for." ”

"Partnership." After Zhang Zijian finished speaking, he glanced at Chen Mingsheng, and then said: "Partnership has benefits, but it is not easy to lose, but we are here to make money, not conservative to make money, how embarrassing it is to earn hundreds of millions of dollars!" So we still go it alone, so I'm still sure of more than a billion dollars. After Zhang Zijian finished speaking, Chen Mingsheng said: "You are the commander-in-chief, I will arrange it, and I can only leave tonight." I'll draw attention to what's going on outside. After Zhang Zijian nodded, he answered, and An Qingzhong, who was on the side, said: "Zhang Shuji, can I say a word?" Zhang Zijian was not in a very good mood, and his tone was slightly lower.

"Are we going to secretly go to Chen Cang, the forces here will not move, transfer to other places, and you are trying to find a way to come back after you go to Germany, so that you can continue to command them?" An Qingzhong pointed to the person outside the office and said.

"In the UK, it is to further grasp the news of the British government, and it is the same everywhere, as long as you can control the news in Europe. The German economy is very strong at the moment, and the British list will slowly weaken against the huΓ n mark, this time we are here to take advantage of the opportunism, and first, to sign a few short-term trust contracts with German banks. When the Americans sell off the charts, that's when we make a profit. "I don't understand!" After An Qingzhong listened to Zhang Zijian's words, Leng said there.

"Let me tell you this, the German economy is now in full swing, and the current official currency of Germany, the mark, is rising against the US dollar. Since the European Monetary Unit is a comprehensive monetary unit composed of a certain amount of currencies of the member states of the European Monetary System, and therefore the unit of account for the exchange of goods and services and the flow of capital in the member states of the European Community at that time, changes in the value of the mark can not only affect the economic situation in Germany, but also have an equally large impact on the fundamentals of the other member states of the European Community. ”

After listening to what Zhang Zijian said, An Qingzhong was still a little dumbfounded, what is the European Community! I don't understand it at all, but I have to prick up my ears and continue to listen to Zhang Zijian.

Zhang Zijian knew that he didn't understand much when he saw An Qingzhong like this, and patiently gave him a make-up lesson, and then said: "At present, Europe is not only weak in the British list, but also the Italian lira, but the strongest is the current Deutsche mark, the spring breeze is proud, but the British economy has been in a recession, and it needs to implement a low interest rate policy to stimulate economic growth." However, the German government, fearing inflation due to a huge fiscal deficit, raised the discount rate to 84 this month. First of all, let's talk about what the discount rate is.

That is, the discount rate refers to the interest rate used to change future payments to the present value, or refers to the interest rate used by the holder to request the bank to cash in the bill that has not matured, and the bank deducts the interest in advance. This discount rate also refers to the rediscount rate, that is, each member bank guarantees the discounted bills as the interest paid when borrowing from the Central Bank. ”

After Zhang Zijian finished explaining and asked the confused An Qingzhong to pour him some water, he continued: "So the British government is limited by the European exchange rate system and must try its best to maintain the exchange rate of the British list against the mark. The fuse of a once-in-a-century crisis in the UK will be ignited, and the excessively high German interest rate will cause a wave of selling the UK list in the foreign exchange market to buy the mark. This is the purpose of our coming, we are not buying the British list and selling it, but doing short-term contract futures, of course, the danger in this will make the risk institutions in the United States, wait patiently, as long as the British list does not fall in place, we will have huge losses. ”

After Zhang Zijian took a sip of tea, he sighed and continued: "It's time for Soros, an American Jew, to appear." He will short-sell the British list in a big way, so that the price of the British list against the mark will fall all the way, and the British government will be in chaos at that time. We just have to wait, wait for the British government to reluctantly announce a 2 percentage point increase in the bank interest rate, and then a few hours later, it will announce a 3 percentage point increase, raising the benchmark interest rate from 1O to 15, and at the same time buy a large number of British lists, hoping to attract short-term capital inflows from abroad, so as to increase the demand for British lists and stabilize the exchange rate of British lists. This is the government bailout. Once this happens, it will get into the whole set set by the Americans. Hehe! At that time, the Bank of England will also deploy at the same time, and Soros, led by the United States, has already begun to attack the British list. A large number of British charts were thrown, and a large number of German marks were bought. What would happen to the British. ”

After An Qingzhong shook silently, he looked at Zhang Zijian with two eyes.

Zhang Zijian continued: "Although the Bank of England will come up with billions of dollars to turn the tide, they will definitely not be able to stop the avalanche of declines. The price of the British list against the mark will fall sharply by about 5 percent, and the price of the British list against the US dollar will also fall to a low level where 1 British list is equal to 1 US dollar. After that, it will fall again by about 5 to 5. An Qingzhong asked: "Zhang Shuji, how can you judge that Britain will fall so much." "This is based on, of course, this is just a prediction in the early stage, do you know that there is a sand table deduction in the army? I also have a deduction in my heart, this is a smokeless war, if we want to win, we have to analyze and talk more, the opponent of the United States has appeared, people have tens of billions of confidence, not afraid, but what about us? So be prepared for an ambush! ”

An Qingzhong nodded, but he had been with Zhang Zijian for a long time, why didn't he see any information about the Americans, is there another channel, although he was curious, he didn't dare to ask.

Zhang Zijian continued to say to An Qingzhong: "In February this year, the foreign ministers and finance ministers of the 12 countries of the European Community signed the Maastricht Treaty in Maastricht, the Netherlands, which is still the most important milestone in the European integration process.

The Maastricht Treaty covers many aspects such as politics, economy, military, justice, and civil welfare, but the provisions on the European Monetary Union are the core and the most controversial. The treaty stipulates that the countries of the European Community (soon to be renamed the European Union) should complete the work of unifying the currency in three stages, the first of which is to strengthen the "European Exchange Rate Mechanism" that existed at that time, to realize the "free" circulation of capital, the second stage is to establish the "European Monetary Agency" to coordinate the monetary policies of the countries of the European Community: the third stage is to establish a unified European currency (euro) and upgrade the "European Monetary Institution" to the "European Central Bank" to formulate a unified monetary policy for the EU countries.

If the above plans... If this can be done, the euro will become a super currency that can be compared with the dollar, the capital markets of the 12 countries of the European Union will be seamlessly integrated, and the cost of capital circulation will be greatly reduced, which will be very beneficial to the development of the European financial industry, and European bankers and fund managers are expected to regain large swathes of territory lost in the past few decades from the Americans and the Japanese themselves. However, the Maastricht Treaty cannot change the current situation of uneven economic development in the EU countries, so it can only be a congenitally deficient and ill-fated treaty. Germany, at the peak of its economic prosperity, dominated the economy of Europe as a whole, while Britain, ruled by the Conservative Party, was mired in recession: Italy in southern Europe was even worse economically than Britain. The British obviously knew that the unification of the European currency would only exacerbate Germany's economic hegemony and even make the "European Monetary Agency" synonymous with Germany's central bank, so they trembled and were suspicious. At the time of signing the treaty, the United Kingdom demanded that the EU countries recognize that it "has a unified European currency that does not participate in it", that is, when the euro is deposited, the British list will continue to be deposited, and the British Central Bank will continue to formulate monetary policy. β€¦οΌŒ

Zhang Zijian continued: "The British government is taking a compromise route with an uncertain future: if it does not join the European exchange rate mechanism and participate in a unified European monetary system, Britain will be thrown out of the door of the European integration process and eventually reduced to a marginal role. After Zhang Zijian smiled, he was like a lecturer continuing to explain the European system, so that An Qingzhong could better understand why he would raise a huge amount of money to fight the British list and earn this relatively easy money. Zhang Zijian didn't want An Qingzhong or the people present to worship him, but he panicked in order to make a round, that is, he knew the future.

Combined with the current economic situation in Europe, coupled with the policy of the British currency, we have brought people's minds into it step by step. In this way, others think that his analysis is more correct, of course, there will be people in this group of people who are suspicious, that is, why does Zhang Zijian know so much news, this Zhang Zijian has been prepared for a long time, otherwise he would not have seconded the elites of major domestic banks to come.

Zhang Zijian lit a cigarette and continued: "If you get too involved in the European monetary system, or even give up the independent status of the British list, it is tantamount to making Britain an economic slave of Germany, and London will gradually lose its status as a European financial center." Therefore, Britain could only cautiously "partially join" once it found that the water ahead was too deep, and it could also withdraw ashore in time and return to the "glorious isolation" bunker.

From the current point of view, the British government's decision is basically correct, but the timing is quite wrong. Before the Maastricht Treaty was signed, Britain was already in a situation of being seriously overvalued, partly because the British economy was very sluggish, and partly because Britain had joined the European Exchange Rate Mechanism, and its currency had to be pegged to the currencies of other European countries such as the mark, and float within a certain range. If there is an abnormal depreciation or appreciation of the British list, the central banks of European countries have the obligation to intervene in the foreign exchange market and stabilize the exchange rate of the British list. The Maastricht Treaty further strengthened the European exchange rate mechanism, making the room for manoeuvre even narrower: therefore, it was no longer possible for the British government to stimulate economic development and rescue British industry from depression through the active devaluation of the British list. ”

"After the signing of the Maastricht Treaty, the exchange rate between the British list and the mark was 1 to 2 PS, which is undoubtedly too high. After the reunification of the two Germanys, due to the impact of infrastructure construction in East Germany, the German economy showed a trend of overheating, and the central bank of Germany had to raise interest rates to curb inflation, which brought more pressure to the British list. In the face of the interest rate hike of the German Central Bank, the British Central Bank ... The Bank of England has only two options: either follow Germany's lead and increase interest rates to maintain the competitiveness of the UK in the capital markets: or raise enough funds to buy large quantities of the UK in the foreign exchange market to maintain a stable exchange rate.

Both paths come at a heavy cost.

If the interest rate is raised, it will undoubtedly add the last boulder to the sluggish economy of the United Kingdom: if the funds are raised to stabilize the market, the British government and the Central Bank of China will not be able to come up with so much money for a while, so they can only borrow from other governments or international organizations. If efforts to stabilize the market fail, the British government will inevitably lose huge amounts of money and bear a heavy burden of foreign debt. β€¦οΌŒ

"Under the grim situation, the best way out for Britain at present is to persuade Germany to reduce the interest rate of the mark and reduce the pressure on the appreciation of the British list. The second thing for the British is to persuade the rest of Europe to tolerate the depreciation of the British list for the time being, and then let the British list return to the normal exchange rate floating range after the British economy recovers, but it is almost impossible for the European countries to agree to this kind of request: again, they will firmly take the initiative to raise interest rates, and at the expense of economic recovery, first stabilize the current situation, so that financial speculators around the world can understand the British government's determination to maintain the exchange rate of the British list, so that at least the credibility of the United Kingdom can be maintained. Hehe! It's like luring a shark that asks about the smell of blood. Encirclement and suppression of the exhausted Britain. If you look at the news now, it is impossible for the British Conservative government to have such courage, they are still too naΓ―ve. Prime Minister John Major, who came to power after a "palace coup", seems to lack the financial capacity to deal with such complexities. It is estimated that he will soon be laid off after the heavy losses of the British. The reason is still our guide. ”

When Zhang Zijian explained to An Qingzhong, Chen Mingsheng and the two group leaders stood at the door, quietly listening to Zhang Zijian's speech, and did not disturb him, Zhang Zijian saw them, pointed to the sofa next to him and said, "Let's sit down!" ”

Wang Haiyu, the head of the information group, asked: "I don't think the British government will be so weak, after all, he has hundreds of years of rule and financial experience, and he is also one of the top capitalist countries in the world." Zhang Zijian nodded and said: "Now I don't want to talk about the history of Britain, of course, it is impossible for us to analyze the historical factors without analyzing them." But now Britain is not the same Britain it used to be. Although he is still strong, outside the EU system, he is isolated, not to mention his ally the United States, and now the Americans are preparing to eat him. ”

Zhang Zijian's words made a few people understand that Britain is really not isolated at present, and then listened to Zhang Zijian say: "At present, opposite the British government and the Central Bank, there is a group of powerful but little-known financial speculators, who come from financial investment institutions called hedge funds in the United States. Ordinary people earning less than $200,000 a year are unlikely to know any hedge fund managers because they only manage assets for the wealthy and large institutions: they keep a low profile, they rarely publicize their performance, and they are not subject to the disclosure obligations of ordinary financial institutions. They can buy and sell short, they can engage in extremely risky speculative strategies, and they can move money from one asset to another and from one market to another at breakneck speed. They have a high-quality talent and a lean organization, a genius fund manager plus a few smart analysts is enough to command a fund of hundreds of millions of dollars, and if you add a few good traders, this fund can make almost any storm. This is the biggest crisis of the British government, more than 10 billion! Because the United States is a country of freedom, they will be taxed on their profits, as well as personal income tax, so the U.S. government allows them to do so. ”

"Will this cause a break between the British and American governments?" Chen Minghui asked.

Zhang Zijian shook his head slightly and said: "No, Britain and the United States have a constant relationship of interests, especially in international politics, they are inseparable, besides, the United States civil society organizations to attack the British currency, the Americans can be said not to be instructed by their government." Everyone knows that the ultimate beneficiary is the U.S. government, but the British just can't help it. can only suffer dumb losses. ”

"Until now, financial regulators have not fully realized the power of hedge funds: by the time they do, it will be too late," Zhang said. The most powerful macro hedge fund in the world, led by Joe Soros, an American Jew I am talking about, will face to face the British government in a face-to-face duel. Soros will spend about 10 billion dollars to compete with the British government. We can predict that in the battle of tens of billions, how many dollars will Soros and Uncle Suo sell in this big gamble, and how many dollars will they take out to buy the strong currency Deutsche Mark? ”

When Zhang Zijian raised questions, he looked at a few people, saw that they didn't speak, and then said with a smile: "Our Uncle Suo has a special feature, which is also what I have learned after observing his actions a few times, Uncle Suo knows that the depreciation or appreciation of a country's currency usually leads to the rise and fall of the country's stock market, and he will buy hundreds of millions of dollars worth of stocks at the same time, and sell stocks with the idea of strengthening the currency. That is to say, next Uncle Suo will sell the German stocks he already has in his hands, and will also buy several stocks with great appreciation potential in the United Kingdom, and next, we are ready to look at the fluctuations of the German stock market, ready to take over Uncle Suo's goods, and at the same time analyze the stocks in the UK that have fallen significantly after being stimulated by the news, which is what Uncle Suo is concerned about. After listening to Zhang Zijian's words, Wang Haiyu hurriedly took out a pen and recorded what Zhang Zijian said. nodded heavily to Zhang Zijian, he is the leader of the information group, a lot of economic news to be analyzed, and at the same time, combined with the analysis of the technical group, sorted out to provide reference for Zhang Zijian. But what Zhang Zijian said just now is too reasonable. It's hard to refute, don't look at this young man, there is really something in his belly.

After thinking about it, the gap with others is also reflected, and the contempt for his youth before is gone. All that remains is admiration.

Chen Mingsheng said to Zhang Zijian: "The boat at half past ten in the evening." First to France, do high-speed rail to Germany. ”

Zhang Zijian nodded and said, "Well," and then pointed at An Qingzhong with his hand and said, "Or is he right!" Secretly crossing Chen Cang, not for anything else, let's put up a maze array. Then he said to Chen Mingsheng: "When I go to Germany, give me a different identity, my name is too conspicuous." ”

Chen Mingsheng nodded and said, "This is easy to do!" Before I came, I was afraid that there would be any accidents for you, so I prepared three identities in advance, but I didn't expect to use them now. ”

"By the way, that Soros you said, do you want me to send someone to put something in his office1 so that we can know their situation in time." Chen Minghui said.

"Don't waste your talents on this, I don't need it yet, you have to know their situation, you can analyze it from some numbers and official speeches. Besides, they will also guard against these eavesdropping or something, don't look at people so retarded. Zhang Zijian said helplessly.

"By the way, I reported the matter of you drinking the Soviets, and the above replied that as long as it is profitable, it is appropriate to do so." Without waiting for Chen Mingsheng to finish speaking, Zhang Zijian shook his hand and said: "I know that in other aspects, the Soviets will give in, but we will make very little." I know this better than anyone else, so don't mention it. ”

Chen Mingsheng still wanted to speak, when he saw Zhang Zijian waving his hand, and asked Wang Haiyu, "What's the news today?" ”

"The British Minister of Finance visited Germany to discuss ......" Before he finished speaking, Zhang Zijian said: "Is the British list active again?" ”

Wang Haiyu looked at Zhang Zijian with surprise and finally nodded heavily.
