Chapter 21: The Arrival of D (7)
Over dinner, Jerry introduced Avril to Robert. Soros, however, in Robert. Under Soros's playful gaze, Xiǎojīng Ling didn't have the liveliness of her past, and didn't say anything other than burying her head in solving her food. When he arrived at Zuihou, he just cleaned up his contents very politely, got up to say goodbye to Jerry, and hurried upstairs to her new residence.
"She's like this, but it's not at all like the xiǎojīng spirit you describe in your mouth? How? Did you bully her? ”
"I bullied her? It's good that she didn't bully me. I guess I was still scared by the look in your eyes. Jerry glared at Robert angrily and amusedly. Soros glanced at it, and then continued to use the knife to pluck his piece of steak, but he also felt strange in his heart, when he came, he was still good, why was he so well-behaved this time? It's not like Avril at all
"Let Sister Lylise pay attention to the international flow of funds. This year's international financial market will not calm down so quickly. ”
"Well, I see. After the peso crisis, the international travel funds that have been lying in ambush in Mexico have directly flooded the international financial market, and according to the estimates of Leslie Xiǎo and Mr. Miller, the total amount of travel funds is nearly 7W billion US dollars. Since Mark left Mexico, the investment department has been monitoring the movement of this group of funds. Recently, this group of travel funds has shown signs of moving to the other side of the Pacific Ocean. ”
"Is it Southeast Asia or Northern Europe?"
"The basic trend at the moment is Southeast Asia. The GATT Ministerial Conference in Punta del Este, Uruguay, is nearing its end, and although the United States has not made any statement on the financial services trade deal reached in this recollection, according to Shijie Trade Organization, the agreement will open up 90% of the international financial market. Financial market access for emerging Asian countries is insufficient, but I think they will soon make various market access commitments. The leader of this huge international travel budget will not fail to see this. ”
"These greedy guys can see vested interests, but they can't see the hidden dangers behind vested interests. An immature financial market, if you choose to be fully open from the beginning......" Jerry's knife stopped, then looked up at Robert, but did not finish his sentence.
Robert nodded understandingly, but remembered one more thing, "Jerry, the negotiations with the Bank of Bahrain are nearing completion. ”
From the end of 1994 to the beginning of 1995, the Japanese House of Councillors election kicked off again. The three-party coalition of the Socialist Party, the Communist Party, and the New People's Party was officially dissolved, and Takako Doi broke away from the Socialist Party and defected to the New People's Party, formally establishing a new ruling coalition centered on the New People's Party and supported by the Liberal Democratic Party and the Communist Party. This change in Japanese politics has severely dampened the confidence of investors, especially non-Japanese investors, and the withdrawal of large amounts of international investment from Japan, and the combined efforts of the people behind the new anti-Japanese ruling coalition led by the United States and the Kobe earthquake of January 18, 1995, caused the Tokyo stock market to fall sharply. In order to regain the confidence of the Japanese people in the new government, Japan's new cabinet has turned the spearhead from the financial field, which has accumulated deep tumors, to the construction of basic policies related to people's livelihood, and vigorously promoted the reconstruction of the old city, and issued the bonds of the new Japanese government. Under the joint action of the three major parties, the price of Japan's political bonds has soared
And just when the stock market in Tokyo was diving all the way and the price of Japanese government bonds was soaring, the old British commercial bank, the Bank of Baring, was in a company named Nick. Li Sen's máo head xiǎo Zi cào made a large short sale of Japanese government fǔ bonds, and made a large long Nikkei position. In just one month, this man named Nick. Leeson's guy used the wrong account number of the Bank of Bahrain to create a debt of more than 900 million pounds for the Bank of Bahrain (the assets of the Bank of Bahrain are only about 350 million pounds). At the beginning of March 1995, the Bank of England, the central bank of the United Kingdom, officially announced that the Bank of Bahrain had entered bankruptcy liquidation. JR Investment, which had been eyeing the sidelines, came out and started a war with ING to seize ownership of the Bank of Bahrain.
"Oh? Is it going to end? I thought it would be a long time."
"If it weren't for the addition of the United Credit Bank of Japan, I think the acquisition would have been closed last month."
"Japan's Union Credit Bank?" Jerry's knife stopped, and he had the impression that the acquisition of the Bank of Bahrain was only about ING, not about the Japanese Union Credit Bank. He ignored the fact that in the shijie he knew, there was no supergiant like the United Credit Bank of Japan. Sumitomo Bank, Mitsui Bank, and Japan Long-Term Credit Bank, no matter which of these three banks is taken out, they were all once well-known banks in the Japanese financial industry, not to mention the United Credit Bank of Japan, which was reorganized and merged on the basis of these three banks.
Robert. Soros wiped the corners of his mouth, his eyebrows twitched, but he was a little surprised by Jerry's reaction, "What, you don't know about this matter?" ”
Jerry shook his head. During this time, he has been busy with other things, although he has also received a call from Nanako Tanaka, but he really doesn't know about the involvement of Japan's United Credit Bank in the acquisition of Bank of Bahrain. However, Jerry was not only a little surprised by the fact that Japan Unicredit Bank joined the acquisition of Bank of Bahrain, but also a little strange, "Robert, doesn't the King's Fund hold the shares of Japan United Credit Bank 83?" Doesn't Japan's Union Credit Bank need the consent of the fund manager's association to join the game? ”
"Not 83 percent, Jerry. Have you forgotten that the year before last, in order to stabilize the confidence of the Japanese people in the bank, you agreed to the decision of Aiko Mitsui Xiǎo to exchange 23% of the 83% shares held by the King's Fund with Sakura Huā Bank, Daiichi Koyo Bank, Mitsubishi Bank and other banks Jiāo fork, and authorized Aiko Mitsui and the Mitsui family to run the Japanese business with full authority? ”
At the mention of this, Jerry remembered.
Japan's financial sector has been hit hard, and the entire banking sector is in a state of decline. After the Ministry of Finance's proposal to use public construction funds to deal with the debt crisis of bankrupt financial institutions was rejected by the New Deal, the proposal to unite with Japan's last remaining banking giants to merge the businesses of bankrupt financial institutions in order to restore the confidence of the people was put forward as a joke.
Aiko Mitsui's proposal for the replacement of shares is, first, to alleviate the contradictions between the Mitsui Foundation and the Tanaka Foundation and other Japanese consortia in the midst of political changes in Japan, second, to solve the current credit crisis in Japan's banking industry, and third, to maximize the use of the manpower and material resources of other consortia, and to greatly reduce the resistance from the opposition in the process of restructuring the financial industry. Although the King's Fund has won a lot in Japan's economic bubble, if the Japanese financial industry really redeems the more than $61.5 trillion VAM agreement, I am afraid that the whole of Japan will sink into a monopoly, which is really good, but the meal always has to be eaten one bite at a time, and it is inevitable that you will suffer from indigestion
Besides, if a large commercial bank like the First Quanye Bank wants to snatch the customer base from his hands, the difficulty is by no means as simple as eating and drinking tea
When Jerry heard Aiko Mitsui say these words, the eyes of this xiǎo girl were full of shimmering jīng light.
Her ambition is not xiǎo.
Authorizing Aiko Mitsui and the Mitsui family to fully operate the Japanese business of the United Credit Bank of Japan was also agreed by Jerry himself. Of course, within the newly formed Japan United Credit Bank, JR Investment still has a team of jīng arithmeticians stationed as the supervision department for large capital flows.
The cancer has accumulated deeply, and even if it is completely removed, it will still take time to recover.
"Aiko Mitsui is decisive. In this case, for the time being, I think someone as smart as her will give me a reasonable explanation. Robert, talk about your thoughts on your father's proposal for collaboration. Jerry flicked his knife and fork, then put them down, and picked up the cow nǎi on the side again.
"It's not a good deal to buy and sell Mexican bonds, and it's not just the London gold pricing power and a 17% De Beers stake that can be compared to that. Jerry, you know, this is a country that floats on oil, and if our arrangement really works, the First Oil Company of the Americas will be in our hands. ”
"But, Robert, don't forget. MEXICANS THINK OF PEMEX AS A LAZARO. President Cárdenas left them a huge fortune, and even if the Savellis government really can't repay the loan, I don't think we will get a controlling stake in PEMEX. Unless," Jerry mō pondered for a moment with his chin in mind, and then added, "unless the Mexican government promotes the transformation of state-owned enterprises." ”
"It can't be. PEMEX is one of the important sources of Mexico's treasury. Savellis political fǔ unless he becomes a fool"
Jerry didn't pick up his words, "When you get back, pass me the details of De Beers." As for your father's proposed cooperation, we don't know what Rothschild and his idea are for the time being, so let's drag it out for now. ”
Robert. Soros snorted, and suddenly came back to his senses, "Hey~ You guy, it's so late, it's not like you're going to shut up and thank you, let me go."
"I don't have any extra room here, unless you're willing to lay on the floor."
Robert. The corners of Soros's mouth are chōu, and there is a tendency to beat people.
"Rammy, send Robert back to Manhattan"
"Haode, boss."
