Chapter 309: Seoul Summit (3)

Holding the check for $50,000 in his hand, Park Sun-eun had mixed feelings in his heart. She was really shocked to be paid more than 50 million won for just one meal, and she was not paid a penny in the years she was a trainee.

Feeling the envious gazes of several other girls, Park Sun-eun sighed secretly, but regretted it in his heart. She wanted to take the initiative and tell the young man that she was still innocent. Although they had only been together for more than an hour, she was keenly aware that the other party was absolutely extraordinary, and she secretly had the idea of clinging to each other in her heart.

But even if you say this, what kind of reaction will the other party have? Most of them still don't want to have anything to do with themselves, after all, their identity is so humble and low, how can the other party look down on them!

After feeling sorry for himself for a while, Park Sun-eun silently put away the check, knowing very well that his fate with the other party was over. It's just that there is still a question that always lingers in her heart, that is, the identity of the other party.

The answer to this question was finally revealed two days later. It was an idle afternoon, and Park Sun-eun was bored and frequently changing channels, when suddenly a picture jumped into her eyes, in a financial forum, the young man with whom she had met was talking at the speaker's seat. After seeing the subtitles at the bottom of the screen, she realized that the man's name was Zhong Shi, and he was a fund manager from Hong Kong.

Looking at the confident face on the screen, Park Sun-eun was stupid again for a while.

Naturally, these are all for later.

After giving Min Yusheng a small trap, Zhong Shi then stayed quietly in the hotel, waiting for the government to call him.

A day later, Andrew. Brian finally called him, and the president of the United States wanted to negotiate with Britain about the matter, and asked him to hurry over. There were already people waiting downstairs in the hotel.

The moment is finally coming!

Zhong Shi took a deep breath, touched his face in the mirror, and silently imagined the scene of the meeting in his heart, and then walked out of the room with confidence.

Yeouido, a small island on the Han River in Seoul, South Korea, is small in size. It was originally an uninhabited, desolate island. However, in the 70s, the Korean government developed Yeouido, and later the Korean National Assembly and the stock exchange moved here, so the area quickly developed.

Today, Yeouido is home to high-rise buildings such as Korea Life 63 Tower and Seoul International Finance Center, making it one of the most expensive areas in South Korea, with more prosperity than Gangnam-gu.

This time, the main venue of the G20 meeting was the House of Parliament of South Korea in Yeouido. The President of the United States stayed in a five-star hotel in Yeouido, which is very close to the hotel where the President of the United States stayed, and the British Prime Minister also chose Yeouido as his residence.

After several rounds of rigorous security surveillance, Zhong Shi met with Andrew. Brian.

"This way, please!"

Andrew. Brian's voice was a little haggard. I don't know what he's been through in the past two days. With a pair of dark circles under his eyes, he led Zhong Shi to the special passage, and said as he walked, "The meeting between Mr. President and the Prime Minister is underway, and what we planned before will also enter their agenda, and we need to wait for news outside." ”

"The representative of Ireland did not participate?"

Zhong Shi was slightly stunned, and was quite surprised in his heart, "Regarding the affairs of Ireland, don't they have the right to participate?" Is it because they are not the same level of leaders? ”

"In addition to this topic. There are other topics that they are not suitable to participate in! ”

Andrew. Brian waved his hand irritably. Impatiently explained, "I also know that this situation is sudden, but I can't convince either the president or the prime minister, so that's just the case now." ”

"But don't worry, the president and the prime minister will meet with them after the end." He was also aware of the inappropriateness of the situation. He immediately added an explanation, "This is the best result we have achieved." ”

Zhong Shi was speechless, but when he thought about it, he knew that there was no way to do it.

"You're Bell Stone?"

The two walked and talked, and soon arrived at the place where the meeting was held, and an old man with gray temples and a wrinkled face stood up in the conference room. After staring at Zhong Shi with burning eyes for a long time, he spit out a few words with a complicated face.

"This is Winston. Sir Downton! ”

Andrew. Brian quickly explained, "He is a special assistant to Mr. Prime Minister, and he is in charge of this matter, and his role is similar to mine. ”

"Hello, Mr. Jazz!"

Zhong Shi met the other party's gaze without fear, and after looking at the other party for the same moment, he replied solemnly, "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”

"I didn't expect the person who planned such a thing to be so young!"

Winston. Downton sighed, then withdrew his gaze and turned to Andrew. Brian asked, "Kevin. What about MacDonald? Why hasn't he shown up yet? ”

Kevin. Macdonald was the special ambassador of the Irish Prime Minister, and after receiving the invitation from the British side, the Irish government had no choice but to send him as plenipotentiary because the head of the country had no time to separate.

"I'm coming!"

Winston. As soon as Downton's words fell, a tall, middle-aged white man in his forties walked in. When he came in, he first headed towards Winston. Downton nodded, which was a kind of hello, and then said to Andrew . Brian said hello and finally turned his puzzled gaze to Zhongshi.

It was clear that he was no stranger to either of them, but he didn't know Zhong Shi, so when he saw a stranger present, he naturally became alert.

"Sit down!"

Andrew. Brian walked to his seat first, and only after taking his seat did he greet Kevin, who was still standing still. MacDonald said, "This is Mr. Chung, from Hong Kong. I think it would be more appropriate to have him here at today's meeting. ”

"Hong Kong?"

Kevin. MacDonald felt something and looked at Winston with an indifferent expression. Downton, in the end, chose to compromise, "Well, gentlemen, what do you want to talk about?" ”

He was called all the way from Ireland to the Far East. has been left unattended in the hotel, to say Kevin. It is obviously impossible that MacDonald has no grievances. But at this time, he is not representing an individual, but Mr. Prime Minister, so no matter what kind of dissatisfaction he has in his heart, he has to suppress it, and he has to show a humble and polite appearance. This is the truth that small countries have no diplomacy.

But he still has to express his inner anger appropriately. In this way, you can attract the attention of the other party.

"Mr. MacDonald, what do you think of the current situation facing the Irish Government?"

For the resentment in MacDonald's words, Andrew . Brian chose to ignore it, and after some deliberation, he finally chose to get straight to the point.

"What do you mean by that?"

MacDonald's pupils contracted suddenly, his originally relaxed body instantly tensed, and the whole person was like a stimulated hedgehog, all the spikes in his body were erected in an instant, and his eyes were full of alertness and panic.

For the encounter of Irish government bonds in the market. As one of the high-level leaders, he naturally heard of it. But on such a strange occasion, when a member of the staff of a foreign president brought up the matter, he immediately smelled a strong smell of conspiracy.

"Relax, man!"

As soon as I saw him like this, Andrew . Brian couldn't help but smile knowingly, and after exchanging a meaningful look with Zhong Shi, he proposed, "Why don't you let this Mr. Zhong explain to you the troubles that the Irish government is currently experiencing!" ”

No one spoke.

"Mr. MacDonald. Allow me to introduce myself! ”

Zhong Shi looked at MacDonald, who looked vigilant, and took the initiative to speak. "If there's anything you say that isn't true, you can always point it out."

He first reassured the other party, and then continued: "So far, Ireland's national debt has been in big trouble, whether it is short-term or long-term, there has been a wave of selling in the market. This has to do with investors' concerns about Ireland's prospects. There's no denying it. The market is skeptical of the Irish government's ability to repay in the future, as your country is determined to save Ireland's banking sector in crisis, resulting in record fiscal spending and a fiscal deficit of more than 30% of GDP. ”

"Judging by yesterday's data, the yield on 10-year Irish government bonds has reached 9%. This figure is even higher than the yield of Greek government bonds of the same year, reflecting the market's perception that Ireland's bonds are riskier than Greece's. It would be impossible to issue new bonds under these circumstances, as it would not be possible to cope with such high interest rates at the current rate of revenue of the Irish Government. And once the existing financial funds are exhausted, the Irish government will be in real crisis. ”

"From my personal point of view, once Ireland is in crisis, the situation will be even more dire than in Greece. Because the Greek government is struggling, and Ireland is having problems with the banking sector. It is a well-known fact that if there is a crisis in the banking sector, the confidence of the people will be quickly lost, and the entire country's financial system will be quickly destroyed, which will affect all aspects of the country. ”

"I can't imagine what this will be like!"

Zhong Shi finally said. At this point, he shrugged his shoulders and made a horrified expression.

"You don't just want to talk to me about that, do you?"

During the course of Bell Stone's narration, MacDonald remained silent. Two minutes later, he spread his hands and said with disdain, "We naturally understand these situations. But I believe that under the leadership of the government, the market will soon dispel this concern, and our economy will soon be on the right track. ”

"Are you sure you really can?"

Zhongshi shook his head and said with pity, "Mr. MacDonald, I think your idea is too optimistic. Before the crisis erupted in Greece, their prime minister had also spoken out three times and twice. How did the market react? I don't need to repeat the sharp rise in government bond yields, the constant flight of domestic funds, the lack of interest in issuing new bonds, the difficulty of the government in making payments on time, and the fact that the country is on the verge of bankruptcy at any time. ”

"This is also the case in Ireland right now, don't expect to influence the market with the government's shouting. A very simple truth, if domestic funds have fled, how to develop the economy in the future? How to increase taxes? How do you repay your debts when you can't issue new debt? ”

In the end, Zhong Shi couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, "I admit that it is impossible for the Irish government to go bankrupt for some time to come, but if this anxiety continues, then what about next year?" If you can't raise money in the international market, you will end up with a dead end! ”

"Gentlemen, have you forgotten?"

As if angered by Zhong Shi's words, MacDonald's expression became slightly hideous, and he stared at Zhong Shi and said word by word, "Even if this happens, we can still ask Europe for help, knowing that we are one of the members of the European Union." ”

After being counted down by Zhong Shi, he finally couldn't suppress his anger a little. If it were the other two, he might still be worried about the forces behind the other party, but for Zhong Shi, he didn't have so many worries. (To be continued.) )
