Chapter 763: City Hero

In 1997, Soros and other arbitrage fund managers began to sell the baht in large quantities, and the Thai foreign exchange market was immediately choppy and turbulent. The Thai baht's declining exchange rate has forced the Thai government to use $30 billion in foreign exchange reserves and $15 billion in international loans in an attempt to turn the tide. But this meagre $45 billion is a drop in the bucket compared to the huge amount of international travel money.

Hurricane Soros soon swept through Indonesia, the Philippines, Myanmar, Malaysia and other countries. The Indonesian rupiah, the Philippine peso, the Kyat, and the Malaysian ringgit have depreciated sharply, and factories have collapsed, banks have gone bankrupt, and prices have risen.

Hurricane Soros, which swept through Southeast Asia, swept away tens of billions of dollars of wealth in one fell swoop, turning decades of economic growth in these countries to ashes. All Asians remembered this terrible day, remembered this terrible man, and people began to call him a "financial predator", and in the minds of some Asians, Soros was even a heinous and morally corrupt guy!

This is Sun Ziming's entire impression of the Southeast Asian financial crisis in '97-98, and it is also the reason why he left Lee Young-ae, who had just started his hands, and hurried back to the United States.

The things in Sun Ziming's memory, Steve, and the economic information they collected have also analyzed it, and they are preparing to secretly participate in this wealth feast. The plan in Sun Ziming's hand is similar to what he remembers, and even the tricks played by the Quantum Fund in Hong Kong and the possible countermeasures of the Hong Kong government have been deduced.

It's just that what Sun Ziming can't understand is that in the 'memory', the Hong Kong government won the financial defense war, and in Steve's deduction, the Hong Kong government will definitely lose.

"Ming, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index is already 16,000 points, is this reasonable? A city supported by real estate, such a high stock index, is a big joke! ”

Ketie was able to speak unscrupulously, but his assistant Nakamura Tomiji didn't dare, seeing that Sun Ziming didn't understand too much, he quickly explained: "Boss, the Hong Kong dollar is a linked exchange rate system (Hong Kong's linked exchange rate system was established in 1983. At that time, due to the blockage of negotiations between China and Britain on the Hong Kong issue, the market saw a large number of Hong Kong dollar sales and US dollar purchases, and the Hong Kong government established the Hong Kong government to protect the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate and maintain Hong Kong people's confidence in Hong Kong's future. The three major note-issuing banks have as many dollars as they print, and how many Hong Kong dollars are printed, which means that the Hong Kong dollar is actually a substitute for the dollar, and it is theoretically impossible to snipe at it.

However, there is a disadvantage of this system, that is, because it cannot guarantee the complete synchronization of Hong Kong's economic development with that of the United States, there is always room for speculation in the fixed ratio of the US dollar to the Hong Kong dollar. Boss, although there is a possibility of speculation here, if you want to snipe Hong Kong's exchange rate on a large scale, anyone is killing themselves.

The Hong Kong government only needs to take as much Hong Kong dollars as the other party sells, and then deposit them in the bank, providing unlimited liquidity support to all Hong Kong banks. No matter how many US dollars the group uses as collateral, how many Hong Kong dollars borrowed are free interest, because the Hong Kong dollars lent out are all back to the bank, and they are afraid that they will not come to borrow. In this way, the exchange rate will not fluctuate much, the market will be relatively abundant, and the interest rate will not be raised, so as not to affect the stock market. ”

Sun Tzu Ming understood that the Hong Kong dollar was actually a substitute for the US dollar, and the Hong Kong government was caught off guard by the possibility of speculation, and there was no way to start when it was in a state of readiness.

"The other party is most likely the stock market, Hong Kong has no other pillar industries except real estate, and the Hang Seng Index of 16,000 points is too high. As long as it causes panic in the market, it is impossible not to fall! ”

Tomoji Nakamura said it very tactfully, and Sun Tzuming also knew what he meant, Hong Kong people followed the old path of the Japanese, gave up industry and prospered real estate, and blew the bubble of the property market too big. Now the top ten enterprise groups in Hong Kong are all real estate developers, and it is okay for such an unbalanced city to appear in a country, but if it becomes an economy alone, it is definitely the rhythm of finding death!

Sun Ziming carefully 'recalled' that Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index had indeed been cut in half after the financial crisis. Damn, it's been cut in half, at least trillions of Hong Kong dollars of wealth have evaporated, and you still boast that you won? The future SAR government is really level!

After pondering for a while, Sun Ziming decided: "OK, we will do our best to help Quantum Fund and Youzi Group to defeat the Thai baht first, and then the Hang Seng Index in Hong Kong!" ”

What the? Steve and Tomiharu Nakamura were stunned, Sun Ziming's predictive ability was like God's, but the two scoffed at his operational ability and conservative style. In Japan, if Steve had been allowed to do it himself, he would have made more money.

However, Steve also admires Sun Ziming's vision, his boss brother is like God, he can always see the truth through the fog. Now, he no longer interferes with his own tactics, but directly intervenes in strategy, which Steve can't help but think about carefully.

After thinking about it for a while, Steve still objected: "Ming, only by letting the Quantum Fund attack alone first and consume the foreign exchange reserves of the Thai government, can we hide in the shadows and make the greatest profits!"

There is also Hong Kong, Ming, and our roots are in the mainland and the Russian Far East. Although this is a war of capital, and all we earn are legitimate profits, we cannot sacrifice long-term interests for short-term interests. No government or citizen would like a financial sniper like us.

Why are you doing this?"

"Humanity!"

Sun Ziming gently spit out two words, took the charcoal pen in Nakamura Fuji's hand, and circled a few numbers on the whiteboard.

"Only the more tragic the consequences, the nobler our future bailout behavior!

Without our help, Soros would definitely lose the first wave of attacks, and even the second wave, which will only make international travel more cautious. Only by defeating the Thai baht in one fell swoop can we make the tour capital group more bold and Southeast Asia suffer more losses. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Ziming drew a heavy stroke on the word HongKong (Hong Kong) again, and said in a deep voice: "The Hang Seng Index will definitely be defeated, rather than letting others make money, it is better for us to earn it." As for your concerns, don't think about it at all. Our company is neither a listed company nor a company limited by shares, and there is no need to disclose the company's equity and financial status to the outside world, who knows that we are a subsidiary of the Far Eastern Group? ”

Steve inhaled the cold air, Sun Ziming had the impression that he was a person with nationalist tendencies, but he didn't expect to be so ruthless for wealth!

How much money is there in the Quantum Fund? His gang has tens of billions of dollars in cash and hundreds of billions of dollars in high-quality assets that can be mortgaged at any time. If this rushes into Hong Kong, Hong Kong will not be able to collapse!

"Still don't understand? Hong Kong has always pursued a prudent fiscal policy, has its own foreign exchange reserves of US$96.5 billion, and its economy is flexible enough to cope with moderate economic fluctuations. ”

Steve was shocked, broke out in a cold sweat, and said in shock: "You mean that the Hong Kong government will violate the principle of free economy and intervene in the stock market that it has opened?" NO, NO, this is impossible, they will intervene in the exchange rate at most, and they will definitely not intervene in the stock market! ”

What is this? Sun Ziming smiled, "If I were the chief executive, I would issue a ban on shorting HSI futures, and the profits from shorting HSI futures before were improper profits and would be confiscated." Steve, you think too highly of the so-called liberal economic principle, in the face of absolute interests, there is no principle at all.

By the way, have you ever heard of a saying? Noble is the epitaph of the noble, meanness is the passport of the mean! ”

The two of them have nothing to say, and if the government uses administrative resources and power to take the initiative to intervene in the stock market, no group can confront the government.

Sun Ziming said firmly: "Yes, it will!" As long as you notice the Hong Kong government's involvement in the stock market, immediately withdraw the funds, use your professional skills to rinse them, and then openly enter Hong Kong and turn around and open fire on the army of tourists. Steve, as long as we succeed, we can become the city heroes of Hong Kong, and we will become a prestigious consortium in Asia in the future! ”

Steve and the others fully understand that if they win this battle, most of the companies of the consortium will be listed in Hong Kong, replacing those consortiums that rely on real estate to suck blood from the citizens, and become the natural leaders of Hong Kong's business community.

'Papapa', Sun Ziming applauded lightly a few times, and Steve, who was persuaded, waved his hand at Nakamura, and the Japanese boy hurriedly went out and instructed his subordinates to adjust the plan and prepare for the Hong Kong government to enter the market. Tens of billions of dollars in big deals, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful.

Sun Ziming stood by the window and watched the lush Central Park for a while, and Steve, who had already arranged for work, came over with a few cans of BlueRibbon beer, and instead of talking about the exciting financial war, he gossiped: "Ming, you really got involved with that LeeYoungAe (Lee Young-ae)?" ”

Taking the cold beer, Sun Ziming looked at his old friend and teased: "Finally know that you are nervous?" I thought you weren't nervous and didn't think you would take my money as money. ”

'Hey', Steve sighed and laughed at himself: "Our layout in Southeast Asia is complete, just waiting for someone to fire the first shot, tens of billions of dollars of action, can you not be nervous?" I have to get drunk at night to be able to sleep. ”

Sun Ziming drank the beer in one go, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted: "Okay, it's still the same sentence, even if we lose, it won't hurt our roots, it's nothing more than the hard work in the past few years." ”

Steve also poured a can of beer, wiped the hops from his mouth, and exclaimed, "Ming, I noticed that you are different from before, and you don't seem to be nervous at all." I remember when I was in Tokyo, you tried to hide it, but you could tell that you were very nervous. ”

Sun Ziming pinched the beer can in his hand, suddenly laughed, and asked rhetorically: "Steve, are your current assets enough for you to gamble and prostitute in Las Vegas for a lifetime?" ”

Steve was stunned, Sun Ziming was like a philosopher, and said quietly: "Money is just a tool, don't take it too seriously!" For us now, 100 million dollars and 10 billion are not much different. We want a sense of accomplishment, not the numbers in the bank! ”

After being stunned for a while, Steve reacted, and pointed out his middle finger at Sun Ziming, and said disdainfully: ", you think I'm the hairy kids in those schools?" If you only have $100 million, your lovers have dumped you! Hey, you're not trying to divert my attention from your affair with that LeeYoungAe, are you? Don't worry, I'm just curious, and even if I do, it's normal. ”

Sun Ziming's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he mocked: "What if you get it? Are you red-eyed? Do you know what promotional season is? You think I'm you, a born pig! ”

In this regard, Steve is really not as good as his grandson, and the two have not known each other for a year or two. At the beginning, Sun Ziming was eavesdropped, and he often engaged in women in the study, so that the other party would not be suspicious, so that he could vote for the other party at any time. That bad idea, it was Steve who came up with it.

"Come on, I don't know about you yet? Tell me, what's so good about that woman? It's not sassy at all, and her body is not spicy, is it interesting to her? ”

After speaking, the experienced Steve slapped his mouth with his mouth, and Yoshiyo Sato, who was watching the scenery on the balcony, said dirtyly: "If you compare with her, you are at least ten streets behind in technology, right?" ”

"Cut, it's called love to each other! Do you think I'm like you, who likes to wear other people's broken shoes? ”

"That's experienced! I think you're just possessive, and you don't know how to enjoy it at all. I think it's you, I'd rather find a Japanese girl again than a Korean one! ”

In this matter, Sun Ziming and Steve can't get along. However, Steve didn't misunderstand Sun Ziming, he took a fancy to Lee Young-ae, so he absolutely couldn't tolerate her leaving in the future. Therefore, before Sun Ziming left Seoul, he trained Park Hanze, turned a corner and told the bastard that he had fallen for him, and he had already dealt with Lee Young-ae. Let that bastard take the initiative to find someone to soften the poor 'oxygen beauty' for the sake of a high brokerage fee. "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, I'll make a phone call first", Sun Ziming raised his hand to look at the time, put down the beer can and went to the balcony, took a satellite phone from Yoshiyo Sato, and called to South Korea as usual.

There is an old saying in my hometown, 'A young girl is afraid of being brutal, and a young woman is afraid of being pestered'. If you turn someone into a young woman, you have to be entangled, isn't Ah Zhi like this? If you want to live with others, don't be afraid of trouble, beautiful women are easy to find but there are few people who can rest assured.

When Steve saw that Sun Ziming was going to call again, he couldn't help but laugh. His boss brother is not good at this, he is lustful and possessive, and he is unwilling to let go when he gets started, and he can't wait to marry all the women he has ever done home. However, perhaps it is precisely this that makes people feel that he is still a mortal, not one of those economic animals who only calculates profits, otherwise he would not dare to make friends with him.

Sun Ziming, who was on the phone, didn't expect that his love and righteousness were actually weaknesses in Steve's eyes. However, if he knew, he would definitely be happy, someone likes to be a god, and as a result, people whipped the corpse.
