Chapter 57

"Japan is like a lamb to the slaughter, fattened, the knife in Uncle Sam's hand, you can cut it if you want." Fang Menan described.

There is always only interests between countries, and when it comes to threatening the interests of the Dao, you can kill people without hesitation.

"It's ridiculous that Japan still wants to buy the United States, but the Japanese are proud of this sentence, and many Japanese companies are now working day and night, working hard for Japan to buy the United States." Yang Fan said with a smile.

"Yes, it's like a child who holds gold in his hand, and has no ability to protect it, so he can only watch it being snatched away by others." Fang Monan said with emotion.

"The timing is not easy to grasp, if it is too early, it will lose, and if it is too late, it will not be able to catch up." Cheng Shigui went on to say that if we do this, we can formulate a specific plan, so as to use a series of methods to operate, and finally get the maximum profit. If we can't, then we can only fight an ambush war, and the longer this ambush war, the more detrimental it is to us. ”

Specifically, the U.S. government and other countries will force Japan to formally sign the agreement on September 22, Fang said. Japan's major chaebols are not expected to be well prepared, and we can use this place to fight a perfect economic war, and I hope you will work hard. ”

"It's much easier that way." Yang Fan calculated carefully, "Wow...... After this battle, you will get at least ten times, and if you do a good job, you will not have a problem with twenty times the income. In this way, you can save ten years of struggle. ”

"With so much money, do you want to continue to enter the real industry, don't skip words. Yang Fan asked.

"We have now collected information on some companies in Japan, mainly high-tech, heavy industry groups, banks, and real estate companies that own large tracts of land in Tokyo. In order to avoid confusion after the successful acquisition, we have started to train a group of middle managers in-house. Large-scale expansion will soon be followed by a lack of management. Of course, the secrecy work has been done sufficiently, and the rumors will not be leaked. Cheng Shigui said.

"Without industry, you are a piece of fat, a fart, without industry, you are nothing. In the United States, the financier has been kidnapped, and everyone will not say, but if you dare to kidnap the business owner, you don't want to mix it up anymore, because the business owner hires a large number of workers, and if he dies, the workers will be unemployed. Fang Monan nodded, "It's better to enter the real economy, but also, simple money is useless, it's just a complete number." No matter how much money there is, once it depreciates, it will be like waste paper. She then went on to say that she could also enter the energy sector, iron ore, oil, copper, etc. If you can't buy mineral deposits, you can buy stocks. ”

"Well, now that everything is ready, just wait for Uncle Sam's starting gun to go off." Fang Monan stood up and said to the two of them that if you have change, you can also play and earn some pocket money. She walked towards the kitchen, "Then I'll go cook." "It's dark outside, and the lights of thousands of homes are lit up one after another.

"The boss cooks by himself, but he really wants to kill us." Yang Fan has been completely conquered since he ate Fang Menan's food on the farm, especially when it is difficult to eat authentic Chinese food abroad.

"I will order it with you today" Fang Monan looked at him with a greedy look on his face and continued to give.

"Wow...... I want to eat braised pork, boiled fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, stuffed prawns, tomato brisket, hot and sour shredded potatoes, and kung pao chicken. Finally, a bowl of jajanjangmyeon. ”

"So much, you're not afraid to hold on." Fang Monan smiled and said that it is all home-cooked food, do you have all the ingredients here? ”

"It's complete, it's all in the fridge." Yang Fan walked to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator, which was stuffed to the brim.

Fang Monan quickly cooked a table of delicious food.

"The taste is very authentic, and some of the seasonings seem to be not produced in Japan." Cheng Shigui tasted it and said.

"Oh, the seasoning was brought from China, and Mobei is not used to Western food, so I make it for them." Fang Monan said that in order to make Mobei eat well during the competition, she had to do enough food and clothing. As for the place to cook, Renard provided it, and at this time he didn't hide it, the music family, the world-famous city did not have a property, which saved them money for staying in a hotel.

The autumn breeze outside brought a chill, but inside the house was full of joy and oil.

Fang Monan and they had done their homework before, so they were fishing for a lot this time, and Yang Fan was nervous and busy in the company.

On September 22, the weather was fine and the autumn was crisp, Fang Monan and Cheng Shigui were leisurely fishing on a shore in Tokyo Bay, when there was no Tokyo Bay Rainbow Bridge, which was built in 1987 and opened to traffic in 1993.

Fang Monan and Cheng Shigui sat on a small pony, holding a fishing rod in their hands, looking at the blue waves of the bay in the distance. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, come to the secluded seaside, and hold your breath to cast the hook and fish, while breathing in the refreshing fresh air.

While enjoying the beautiful scenery of green mountains and green waters, white clouds and blue sky, there are also fish fishing from time to time, which makes people feel extremely comfortable.

"Nannan, but leisurely and happy, stable as Mount Tai." Cheng Shigui looked at the quiet child beside him. "The old man plays, you like it."

"Fishing is not divided between young and old, calm down, self-cultivation, guard against arrogance and rashness." The destined history, if it can't be earned, Fang Monan should hit the tofu head. "Such a beautiful view, isn't it good to skip words here." "Whoosh" She lifted the fishing rod, and a small fish was thrown ashore, taken off, weighed a pound, and threw it into the bucket. Get the bait, a nice pose, the hook is submerged in the sea.

Fishing is a combination of patience and confidence, when fishing, pay full attention to the fishing, concentrate on the seriousness, and wait for the fish to catch safely, fishing can overcome the habit of impatience and frivolity, cultivate a steady and witty character, and develop a steady and subtle personality. After being reborn, Monan fell in love with this kind of 'entertainment', so she built a small reservoir on the farm, not only to solve the irrigation, but also to have a good place to relax, which is stocked with fish released from the space, clever, so far, no outsiders have caught it.

Cheng Shigui was very angry, and after sitting for a long time, he didn't catch a single fish. Looking at the calm little man next to him, his heart slowly calmed down.

The news of the signing of the agreement between the five countries began on the radio in the car, which marked the beginning of a rapid appreciation of the yen. The announcer's sweet voice announces the beginning of the nightmare.

On September 22, 1985, the newly appointed U.S. Treasury Secretary James Murphy was appointed to the Treasury. Becker held a secret meeting with the finance ministers of West Germany, Japan, France, and Britain at the Plaza Hotel in New York, at which the finance ministers of the five countries decided to agree to the depreciation of the US dollar, and jointly signed the so-called agreement, which pointed out: It is proposed to further strengthen cooperation between them and increase the value of non-dollar currencies in a reasonable manner. After the signing of the agreement, the five governments began to sell the dollar sharply,

After Cheng Shigui heard it, "Nannan has opened a full position to long the yen, and the leverage has also been adjusted to the maximum, and now it is on the edge, if the yen has a big rebound, we will completely lose it." And the amount of money we have raised is 600 billion dollars. ”

"I, we're going to win." Fang Monan said calmly and continued to fish leisurely. "Let's go home and make a delicious meal to reward our heroes." She put away her fishing rod, picked up the bucket, and headed for the car.

In Cheng Shigui's opinion, she is about to talk and laugh freely in the upcoming fierce battle, and it seems that everything is under control, and it seems that eating is the most important thing.

Fang Monan once again proved that her prediction was accurate, and this time Cheng Shigui was very speechless, because people couldn't imagine words to describe her, maybe 'demon' was more appropriate to describe her. On the second day of the official signing, the exchange rate of the dollar against the yen immediately fell by 4.3, which was a huge victory for them, because their funds changed from three billion dollars to more than 20 billion dollars on this day, that is, they made a net profit of nearly 20 billion dollars.

However, there is also an element of their undercalculation, that is, the dollar has depreciated all over the world. However, as soon as they withdrew their funds, the market reacted immediately. A large amount of money was cashed out, and it is said that many banks in Japan did not have that much dollar in deposit. Of course, in the end, Fang Monan only exchanged three billion US dollars as a supplement to the funds borrowed by the original company, and a large amount of funds were all exchanged for yen and did not move.

Fang Monan and the three of them sat at the dinner table, she put down the dishes and chopsticks and said The money is already there, act according to your plan, this time you have to have a good time. Fang Menan learned that in addition to the three billion dollars that were exchanged for dollars and the eight billion dollars that remained in the foreign exchange market, there were now 3 trillion yen in all the funds that were converted into yen. This time, when everyone did not react, a large amount of money was reduced to zero, and it entered the Japanese housing market and stock market. There was still a big financial crisis in Japan in the early 90s, and the housing and stock markets in Japan must have been booming recently.

"Well, you see, our target this time is a medium-sized bank and some real estate companies, and we have already got the statements of these companies before, and the real estate in Japan will definitely be on fire." Cheng Shigui said.

Fang Monan nodded, "I don't care about the specific things, you can do it." Count the end of the Mobei competition, it's time for me to go back to China. ”

"You can't leave us behind, there's still a lot to do," Yang Fan shouted, in fact, he was reluctant to Chinese food.

"I was a kid and went home to school." Fang Monan shrugged innocently.

"As far as I know, it's time for the mainland to start school." Cheng Shigui said.

"So I took a leave of absence, and now I have to go home."

Cheng Shigui and Yang Fan looked at her speechlessly and disappeared at the bend of the stairs. He said, 'Is there such a wicked child as you?' ’

Fang Monan sat on the plane, and his trip to Japan was very successful, and he was more than 20 times crazy. The happiest thing is that Mobei finally won the first place, "I'm not happy, I won the first place." She looked at Mo Bei's dejected appearance, she shouldn't be

"Ludwig? Olivier, I didn't participate, and I felt a little dissatisfied with this position. Fang Mobei pouted.

"Anyway, this is our first first in Mobei, be happy." Fang Menan said. "Memorable."

Mobei's frustration came and went quickly, and he recovered quickly. Fang Monan saw that she was okay and continued to look at what was in her hand

Psychology.

When you get home, you always feel like you're missing? By the way, "Mom, Dad won't come to dinner at noon, and he won't come to dinner this time." Fang Monan put the food on the table and said.

"Your dad eats with visiting groups every day. There are fewer and fewer times to eat at home. Mom frowned and said that it was good that he remembered not to drink, and the slogan of allergy had been shouted, but no one could force it. The food outside is not as delicious as at home, and in short, he can't hide even if he wants to. ”

Mom then nagged and said, Tell me, there are good visits to this greenhouse and livestock breeding, and now they are coming in batches, and the county has to be entertained with good wine and food. I really don't know what they are trying to do? ”

"Fortunately, our farm has a big brand of Hong Kong businessmen, and no one dares to provoke it." Grandma said otherwise, you have to eat it. ”

"This is a big eater," Fang Mo Nan said. When the Chinese people set up a model, there will be a large number of people to visit and study, such as the world's first village, the world's first village, the world's first village, must have received a lot of such visiting groups. It's hard to say whether there are economic benefits, but eating and drinking must be entertained by the local government. "It's hard to block public money for eating and drinking."

Eating and drinking at public expense has been a difficult problem since ancient times, and it has always been a major "chronic disease" in ancient officialdom that has not been cured for a long time. In the next generation, it will eat 300 billion a year, which is easy.

"Now they don't want to eat big." As he spoke, Dad entered the house, washed his face and hands behind the door, and sat down. "Eating and drinking at public expense, this word sounds appropriate."

"The shortcomings of the system have led to the formation of a deformed relationship between the superiors and subordinates, who wants to drink wine and meat through the intestines every day, drink bad party style and drink bad stomach. But the superiors don't receive it, and if the reception is not good, the future will be hopeless, not to mention the sake of, if the superiors are not served well, even if they want to apply for some money for the people, it is impossible to be approved. Old Man Lin said helplessly. Secretary Wang has a way. ”

Secretary Wang said that in the future, all groups who come to visit will be 2 yuan per person, which will be more out of pocket. Otherwise, don't come, you won't be waiting. Dad said with a smile, now there is no need to drink meat through the intestines. He watched the groups that came to visit the table like locusts crossing the border, and he really felt sorry for the money spent in vain, which was planted and raised by the peasants with every drop of sweat.

"Oh, that's a good idea." Old Man Lin said, this Wang kid is tough.

"This is not new, people in the United States have always been like this, their public funds reception is very simple, the authority is 10 US dollars per person, more than this standard must be approved, or the host pays for it. The officials or departments receiving them did not have the funds to entertain them, let alone the "small treasury", which was the real "Qingshui Yamen". Fang Menan said.

Fang Monan continued to be old-fashioned and said that in fact, it is not that the Americans are doing well, but that we are doing too poorly, even if we were poor a few years ago, the leaders did not eat and drink, not to mention that they are a little richer now, which is reflected in eating and drinking. Laws and regulations are the bottom limit of social operation, but they are not the original solution to the problem. The United Nations has not had a ** for 30 years, not that these officials don't want to, but that the system is constrained and there is no way to start; In Europe, government officials have a clear distinction between public and private food and drink, the government has strict supervision over this, and the media is also very strict about public funds; In Japan, the people have voluntarily formed the National Liaison Conference of Civil Rights Spokespersons. Supervise government actions and check how taxpayers' money is being spent. She then sarcastically said Therefore, eating and drinking at public expense is only so serious in our place, not that the capitalists are too harsh on their employees, but that the welfare of the "proletariat" is too good, haha......"

"This Secretary Wang is not afraid of retaliation from his superiors." Mom asked.

"I shouldn't be afraid, we didn't do it." Dad said hesitantly but affirmatively.

'Alas' Fang Menan sighed in his heart, Dad is really too tender, a recruit in the officialdom. If he has nothing to rely on, how dare he do this?

Sure enough, Old Man Lin said don't worry, it's okay. ”

The secretary of this matter withstood the pressure, no one dared to have objections, and if there were objections, you would pay for the reception, and one sentence would stop everyone's mouths. The number of people who came to visit gradually decreased, and the secretary was still in front of him, and sure enough, there were people in the court who were good officials.

After returning home for more than two months, Fang Mobei embarked on another journey to the United States, this time to participate in the Thomas Cooper Cup International Youth Violin Competition (TeTmndEvnCerInernlVilinCmeiin), the world's largest and highest-money international youth competition: the competition includes a first prize of $10,000, a second prize of $6,000, a third prize of $3,000, and a prize of $1,000 each for fourth to sixth place. The top six finalists in the U.S. finals will receive a four-year full scholarship of more than $200,000 from the Oberlin School of Music. This is the largest prize money awarded to young winners in the world.

The venue of the competition is Cleveland, the largest city in Ohio, USA, which has become a modern metropolis in the 30s of the 20th century. Heavy industry is the foundation of the economy, among which the iron and steel industry is the most developed, and it is a transportation artery and a famous industrial city. However, there are many green spaces in the urban area, and the park area is about 7,500 hectares, accounting for about one-third of the urban area. The geography of this area is known as the "City of Forests".

It's also cold here in December, but the violin competition is in full swing, and the backstage of the competition, this time Ludwig? Olivier also participated. Mo Bei saw him greet him with great interest, and said that this time I will let you see my progress. ”

"Oh, I'll wait, don't let me down," Ludwig said, raising an eyebrow. After saying that, the two of them were preparing separately, and Mebeth was the fifteenth to take the stage, this time she played the classic violin version of Mozart's Turkish March.

The Turkish March is in a rondo, so it is also known as the Turkish Rondo. The melody is light and lively, and the rhythm is full of elasticity; In the middle of the piece, there is a bright and majestic march full of oriental colors, and the theme tone rhythm is sonorous and powerful, and the momentum is majestic, which makes people suddenly open up, as if the team is galloping rapidly.

Mobei played in one go, and walked down happily.

Ludwig, clenched her fists, not seen for months, the little one has improved a lot in fingering, technique, and at her age the march is played with magnificence, magnificence, not soft and rare. Hehe...... It's not bad, just let her listen to my performance. Coincidentally, he also played the "Turkish March".

Fang Mobei listened carefully, biting his lips tightly, with a hint of annoyance, his momentum was still slightly worse. Hum......

In the final result of the competition, Merbei was still in second place.

"Don't be discouraged, there will be opportunities in the future." Ludwig, who stepped down, comforted her.

"Hmph, I won't lose to you next time." Mo Bei grimaced and said unwillingly.

"Huh...... You're really in good spirits. "The man was in his forties, with blue eyes, long chestnut-colored wavy hair, and a red knee-length dress, with a bumpy figure. She looked at the juniors with comfort, "Hello, I'm Marry?" Stacy"

Fang Menan has read the information of the judges, this person is the current director of the orchestral department of the Curtis Institute of Music, this time it seems that she is not a judge, what is she doing here? Wait, Curtis, wow...... She didn't dare to guess.

"I remember who you are, you were a judge in the last Moscow competition, and I have also been a judge in several competitions and have seen you in the future." After Fang Mobei remembered who she was, he said respectfully, this time it seemed that she was not a judge, and she didn't know what was going on here.

"You play the violin very well, I love it." Mo Bei looked at her adoringly, she was in the tape at home, and Mo Bei also listed some tracks in the tape. "May I ask you about the playing without skipping words.

Stacy narrowed her eyes with a smile when she heard this, "Well, let's go sit at the cafΓ© opposite." Smiling at the handsome little guy, even if it was a farewell, he pulled Fang Mobei and walked out of the hall, not forgetting to signal Renard and the two of them to go together.

After the four of them sat down, the two adults ordered coffee and the small one ordered juice

"You're very talented, and at your current age, you're not very skilled." Stacy said with a smile.

Fang Monan and Renard sat on the side, drinking, without interjecting, and asked Mobei to solve the matter, obviously people came at her. The two of them looked at each other, thinking the same thing.

Fang Mobei is now young and famous, and with such an impressive record at such a young age, it is not surprising that someone is looking for her.

Fang Mobei blinked, not for her to praise her like this. "Thanks for the compliment, I will work harder."

Her smile brightened when she heard this, "I have no doubt about this, from your progress, you have worked very hard. There is no shortage of geniuses in this industry, what is lacking is geniuses who work hard and persistently. ”

"Well, I've had a lot of geniuses after these competitions." Fang Mobei continued to be naΓ―ve Before learning the violin, Grandpa Lin and Teacher Lei asked me if I was afraid of hardship and tiredness? If you are afraid, don't learn, but if you learn, you must persevere. ”

Stacey was stunned when she heard this, "Your teacher didn't say which conservatory he wanted you to go to in the future." ”

Renard heard it now and said out loud Stacy, you're in luck. Originally, I wanted this girl to go to the Royal Academy of Music, but she wanted to go to the Curtis Institute of Music. ”
