After a short circle around the city of Tokyo, the car slowly stopped in front of an inconspicuous hotel in Chuo Ward.

After the person arrived at the place, Lin Xiaozhi was not in a hurry to get out of the car, first gave one of his bodyguards a look, first let him get out of the car and walked around the neighborhood and found that there was nothing abnormal, and the group all got out of the car and entered the hotel directly from the emergency passage behind.

"Lin Sheng, I said you guys should be too careful!"

In the hotel, Song Nianhui, who was supposed to negotiate with Shougang in Beijing to go public in Hong Kong according to the external publicity, unexpectedly appeared here. Lin Xiaozhi saw that he couldn't hide the excitement on his face, and the little worry that he still had in his heart disappeared, and said with a smile: "I was still a little worried, but now I feel relieved when I see you." ”

Song Nianhui smiled slightly, and first invited him in to answer the questions he asked and explained to him all the way: "Lin Sheng asked me to find a quiet, less crowded place in Tokyo before, and it was a coincidence, I met a classmate who was in Tokyo when I was studying in the United States, so I asked his relationship to temporarily charter this hotel!" ”

Lin Xiaozhi looked around, and said with some admiration: "No wonder the world praises the quality of Japan's service industry, this hotel is very good in terms of cleanliness and hygiene, environment and decoration, but I am afraid that it is not worse than some star-rated hotels in Hong Kong." ”

Song Nianhui nodded, and while speaking, a few people went up to the third floor of the hotel, walked to the depths of the aisle and opened a room, after he invited Lin Xiaozhi in, after seeing that there were no outsiders left and right, he no longer concealed the excitement in his heart and said: "Lin Sheng, fortunately, I am not dishonored, this time with your information, we have made a lot of money behind the international fast money!" ”

"How much?" Lin Xiaozhi asked impatiently.

Song Nianhui smiled, stretched out his right palm and gestured in front of him, Lin Xiaozhi's eyelids jumped wildly, and he asked with some hesitation: "500 million?" ”

I saw Song Nianhui nodding with a smile, with a smile on his face, "It's 540 million US dollars, and we really made a lot of money this time." Although it is far from being comparable to the giants of the Quantum Fund and the Tiger Fund, it is also a lot of money. This is thanks to Lin Sheng, you got the news in advance, if it weren't for your reminder, I'm afraid we would really miss this feast of sharing the wealth of the European monetary system! ”

"What, five hundred and forty million dollars!"

Lin Xiaozhi exclaimed, and then his face smiled brightly like a flower.

In 1978, when the new generation of mainland leadership proudly announced the great 'reform and opening up plan', a major event that was recorded in history also occurred in Europe at about the same time period - the European Council decided to create the European Common Monetary System (referred to as the euro)!

The establishment of the euro was the result of the strong dissatisfaction of the old capitalist powers in Europe in the face of the frequent outbreak of dollar crises and the US economic crisis since the 50s, and since the United States, which made a lot of money in World War II, became the world's number one economic and military power in the post-war period, relying on the 'Bretton Woods system' established by aiding the reconstruction of Europe after the war, the United States forcibly kidnapped Europe under the economic hegemony of the United States. As a result, after the war, the capitalist powers of Europe, which were in a good economic situation, were frequently involved in economic crises after the problems of the American economy.

Although the Bretton Woods system came to an end in 1973, the United States continued to influence the capitalist powers of Europe through a series of economic controls and the peg of the dollar to oil.

At the same time, when the United States continued to export military hegemony, single-handedly promoted the outbreak of the Fourth Middle East War behind the scenes, and tried to interfere in post-war negotiations, the oil-producing countries in the Middle East finally joined forces to repay Israel's backers behind the scenes by withdrawing the right to price oil, reducing production and raising prices, creating the first oil crisis, and finally causing the economic crisis affecting the major capitalist powers in the world in 74-75.

Finally, the European capitalist powers, led by West Germany and France, could no longer sit still, and there were frequent exchanges of visits by senior officials at the level of national finance ministers, and after several years of hard work, they finally brought the contradictory European powers to sit together, and planned to unite European forces to promote the birth of a stronger European currency, the euro, in order to counter the influence of the United States.

It is a pity that since its establishment, it has been suppressed and sabotaged by the United States and the Soviet Union, and there are many contradictions between European countries, such as Anglo-German contradictions, Anglo-French conflicts, Franco-German contradictions, Franco-Italian contradictions, German-Italian contradictions, and so on.

The strength of the member states of the European Community is not fixed, and once it reaches a certain level, it requires an adjustment in the weights of the currencies of the member states. Although it is stipulated that the weights should be changed every five years, if the change in power is not detected in time, or if the change in power is not detected in time, or if the change in strength is not detected in time, or if it is discovered that it is not adjusted in time, the market will spontaneously adjust and the European monetary system will erupt into a crisis. In mid-to-late September of this year, the most severe currency crisis since World War II occurred in the European currency market, the root cause of which was the growing power of Germany and the upset of the balance of power within the European Community.

Since the end of 1990, when the GDR (East Germany) was integrated into the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany), Germany's economic strength has been greatly strengthened by the reunification of East and West Germany. Although the share of the Deutsche Mark in the European Monetary Unit in the European Monetary Unit in the Marks remained unchanged, the relative share of the Mark in the European Monetary Unit increased due to the increase in the exchange rate of the Mark against the US dollar.

Because the European currency unit is the unit of account for the exchange of goods and services and the flow of capital in the member states of the European Community, changes in the value of the mark, or German monetary policy, can not only affect the macroeconomy of Germany, but also have a greater impact on the macroeconomy of other members of the European Community.

The economies of Britain and Italy have been sluggish since the late seventies, with slow economic growth and rising unemployment, which necessitates low interest rates to reduce the cost of borrowing for businesses, increase investment, expand employment, increase production, and stimulate national consumption to revive the economy.

After the reunification of East and West Germany, Germany ran a huge fiscal deficit, and the government feared that this would lead to inflation, which would cause dissatisfaction among Germans, who were accustomed to low-level inflation, and political and social problems would erupt. As a result, the inflation rate is only 3. Instead of rejecting the last G7 summit's call for a rate cut, 5% of Germany raised the discount rate to 8 in July '92. 75%。 In this way, the excessively high interest rate in Germany caused a wave of selling the pound and the lira in the foreign exchange market and snapping up the mark, causing the exchange rate of the lira and the pound to fall sharply, which became the direct cause of the outbreak of the European currency crisis.

Although Lin Xiaozhi, who had played stocks for a period of time in his previous life, knew little about foreign exchange, he had a strong interest in Soros, the man of the year at the end of the last century, and checked a lot of information and records about him on the Internet. Therefore, I not only know that this financial predator once single-handedly promoted the '97 Asian financial crisis', but also know that he had sniped the British pound in 1992 and the Mexican peso in 1994.

After being reborn, Lin Xiaozhi's memory has been greatly strengthened, and he will naturally remember what will happen this year. Originally, Lin Xiaozhi didn't plan to get involved in it. After all, in 1992, Hong Kong is still under British governance, and if he had been involved in sniping the British pound and the British government had learned about it, it was not known what stumbling blocks the British government would have given him to repair him in the years before the handover. You must know that the past few years before the return to the motherland in 97 were life-and-death and extremely important years for both him and Hong Kong films, and he didn't want to make a mistake.

However, the idea is good, but the reality is cruel.

In the past year, he has invested in the construction of Shenzhen Cinemas, expanded mainland cinemas, bought villas, bought new office buildings for ATV and Media Asia, launched a film development support fund, etc., Rao is he Lin Xiaozhi has made a lot of money in the past, and Lin Jiakong's Kowloon Bank can also provide him with some loans, but his capital chain is also tight for a while.

So much so that recently, when he was preparing to acquire Kadokawa Pictures and build retail outlets in the mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and began to promote the SVCD of Media Asia Electronics into the market, he was embarrassed to find that unless he sold the property and stocks he held, he really had no money!

As a result, Lin Xiaozhi had to take another risk, so he partnered with Song Nianhui again, and he provided information through Song Nianhui's hands, and the two avoided the eyes and ears of the British government in Hong Kong in Japan, the world's second largest capital market, and followed Soros, who is now ravaging the European foreign exchange market, and other international fast money capital.

It is also thanks to his curiosity that he knows more about the process before and after Soros's sniping of the pound in 92 because of curiosity, so that he has now eaten meat.

The two entered the house and sat down, and Song Nianhui explained to him in detail: "...... Because Lin Sheng, you have repeatedly reminded us to be careful, so all the funds in our operation this time are scattered in hundreds of capital accounts, and it will not be very conspicuous in Tokyo, the largest foreign exchange market in Asia. Moreover, our fund accounts are either registered in Switzerland, or in Morocco and some offshore areas under non-British governance, even if anyone really wants to trace it, it will be very difficult! ”

He smiled and comforted Lin Xiaozhi, obviously disapproving of his worries, "And compared to the little meat we eat, the British and Italian governments need to pay more attention to the real giants such as the Quantum Fund and the Tiger Fund." According to the information we have received, the Quantum Fund has made at least a billion pounds from the sniping of the pound, and the Tiger Fund may be slightly less, but no less than seven or eight billion. And so far, the international fast money led by these two giants has no intention of ending, and according to my estimates, it is likely that these international fast money is not ready to make Britain join the ranks of the European common currency. So on the Italian side, they may accept it when they see it, and leave when they eat the meat. But on the British side, unless the Bank of England admits defeat, these financial predators who smell the smell of fish and rush to come will not let go lightly......"

I have to say that he was right in his analysis.

Although Lin Xiaozhi did not speak, he praised Song Nianhui's analysis in his heart.

According to the information he learned later in life, in this European currency sniper war, the international fast money led by the quantum fund can be said to have made a lot of money, and the financial report released by the quantum fund at the end of the year shows that it has earned no less than two billion dollars in just half a month in the sniper pound, of which the red envelopes distributed by Soros funds alone are nearly one billion pounds, about 1.3 billion dollars, which shows that the money earned by the quantum fund is only higher than what they announced.

Thinking about it, the Bank of England and the British government have invested tens of billions of dollars in foreign exchange in this foreign exchange war, but they have still not been able to defeat the international fast money capital with a scale of hundreds of billions, and are forced to watch their own exchange rates again and again and let international fast money manipulate. While Britain suffered heavy losses, many international quick money made a lot of money, and after some competition between the two sides, the British government finally admitted defeat and withdrew from the European monetary system, ending the storm that shook the global financial community in 1992.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Lin Xiaozhi, what he needs to do is to eat a few bites of big fat behind Soros and other international fast money, relieve the tension of his own capital chain, and then contribute to his film empire.
