Chapter 269: Misfortune Doesn't Go Alone (4)

In fact, this new problem is still due to the chain reaction brought about by the Chinese mainland's statement that the renminbi will not depreciate.

In addition to the Bank of Japan's active allocation of funds to Southeast Asian countries to help them maintain their own currency security, senior officials of the Japanese government also regarded the crisis as an excellent opportunity for them to win over regional governments, and repeatedly proposed to set up a regional mutual aid fund or set up an institution similar to the IMF to protect the economic security of various countries.

But after the fire in South Korea, Japan's backyard, the clouds of economic crisis even hung over Japan for a time, which made them no longer jump up and down, but began to concentrate on running their own one-third of an acre. Although Japan's economy has not been in a boom in recent years, the huge foundation is still there, so under the dual stimulus of easing monetary policy and implementing low interest rates, the Japanese economy has quickly recovered and stabilized.

However, after the Chinese mainland announced that the renminbi would maintain its current value and would not depreciate, the Japanese government came under great pressure to stimulate exports through the depreciation of the currency, and this pressure did not come from the economy, but from the political level.

To be sure, there is nothing to blame for Japan's approach, which is to stimulate exports through currency devaluation, as Southeast Asian countries have done. As the only superpower in the region, it is okay not to help other countries at such a time, but it is very inappropriate to fall into the ground. Especially in the context of Huaxia's announcement that it will not depreciate. Japan's behavior is even more glaring.

Although Japan can argue that its currency market is open and free-floating, and that everything is determined according to the supply and demand of the market, such a statement can only deceive the general public, and it is not convincing at all for national politicians who know how the world works.

Ever since the economy began to take off in the seventies and eighties, Japan's elites have reached a consensus to seek a political position in the international community that is commensurate with their economic status. This consensus reached its climax in the early nineties, only to be taught a hard lesson by the United States in economic warfare. Japan's elite began to reflect on their own recklessness and radicalism. After quietly countering the European and American world in 94, they began to shift the focus of international politics to other underdeveloped regions and countries, hoping to seek more support from the international community by helping them develop their economies.

It was precisely because of this demand that Japan was eager to take the plunge in the early stages of the economic crisis. But now they are "swept away by the snow in front of the door". This kind of behavior has sent chills down the hearts of many Southeast Asian countries. Therefore, in order to salvage the political decline, Japan must also take action to raise the yen in exchange for the goodwill of these countries in the past.

But a new problem has arisen. That is, in the absence of great benefits in the market today, the Japanese authorities have figured out how to buy a large amount of yen to raise the yen exchange rate, which will leave a deliberate impression on the market. In order not to offend both, the current Japanese authorities need an opportunity, one that is enough to excite the market.

"Hasui-san, this time Wang Sang came to visit, I don't know what you think?"

In the BOJ's office building, BOJ signs can be seen everywhere, and in the governor's office on the top floor, Yumu Hasamizu, the new governor of the Bank of Japan, who had just taken office in March this year, took off his shiny leather shoes and walked to the tatami mat with a copy of the paper.

In this high-rise building overlooking Tokyo's Ginza district, you can see workers in suits and leather shoes everywhere. These people are not much different from the usual office workers on the streets of Tokyo, but they are the people who run the world's second-largest central bank, second only to the Federal Reserve's BOJ (Bank of Japan) in power and authority.

Hayami Yu is over fifty years old, which can be described as the age of the prime of life, and his appearance is not much different from that of ordinary Japanese, with small eyes and a flat nose, his mouth and teeth turned out, and he feels very lustful when he laughs, and if he sees it on the bus and subway, he is definitely a standard train idiot.

His office is on the top floor of BOJ's headquarters, with a large site and an excellent view. On the east side of the office, there is a standard office area, with dark red desks and chairs, a dazzling array of books, and a large Japanese flag on the wall. On the other side, there is a completely resting area, with tatami mats for two people, a bronze tea table in the middle, clogs under the tatami mats, and kimonos, paper fans, and a taidao hanging from the walls.

At this time, Yuu Hayami sat on the tatami mat, raised the teacup and tasted it, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his other hand waved aimlessly in the air, not knowing whether it was following the silent rhythm or simply swaying.

Kneeling respectfully across from him was a clear-eyed young man named Haruhiko Kuroda, only in his thirties, the age of great ambition. As assistant to the president, Kuroda is responsible for the president's daily itinerary, policy data collection, and coordination and communication with other departments.

This time, Wang Xuehong came to visit, and she notified Kuroda Haruhiko in advance, and the assistant to the president arranged the itinerary.

After tasting the tea for a long time, Shui Youcai slowly put down the teacup, suddenly opened his eyes, and asked strangely, "Wang Sang?" Wang Sang of Huaxia? What did he come to do at this time? Why haven't I been notified? ”

"That's right!" Seeing that Hayamiyu's expression was dissatisfied, Kuroda Haruhiko quickly knelt up straight, his head drooped down, and replied quickly, "Wang Xuehong and Wang Sang from Huaxia contacted me, hoping to come to Japan at the right time, a private visit. So I agreed, because it didn't involve business trips, so I didn't report it, it was my mistake. But yesterday, he suddenly proposed to visit Hayami-san in a private capacity, and I didn't dare to advocate this matter, so I immediately reported it to you. ”

"Really?" For Kuroda's attitude, Yu Hayami is very satisfied. However, this was only one of his subordinates' methods, so he just snorted slightly, looking noncommittal. Just when Kuroda Haruhiko was still nervous, Yu Hayami began to say again, "Kuroda-san, what do you mean when you say that this Wang San is visiting at this time?" ”

"Subordinates don't dare to speculate!" Kuroda still didn't understand the boss's thoughts, and after saying "hey", his head was lowered.

Seeing that the beating was almost over, Yu Hayami smiled slightly. waved his hand. said: "Kuroda-san, you just have to say it boldly. If I'm not mistaken, this Wang Sang came this time, and he definitely didn't come aimlessly. So. I need someone like you to give me an analysis! ”

Hearing that Yu Hasamizu compares himself to a talent. Kuroda was overjoyed. But his face didn't dare to show half a point, raised his head and stared into the other party's eyes, and said seriously: "Since you said so." Then I'll throw bricks and lead the way. Although China's Hong Kong has just defeated the speculators in the financial market, they have not completely defeated the other party, although Huaxia has a lot of dollar funds, but they do not dare to use them lightly, so they plan to borrow some funds from us to prevent the speculators from attacking again? ”

"You have a point!" Yu Hayami neither nodded nor shook his head, but just looked at Haruhiko Kuroda with a smile, waiting for the other party's next step.

Kuroda Haruhiko was immediately dumbfounded, he never thought that the results he came up with after thinking and meditating for a few days would not be approved by the big boss. At this time, although Hayami Yu had a smile on his face, no matter how Kuroda Haruhiko looked at it, he felt that his boss was laughing at him, and he was embarrassed for a while, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole to get into.

Rushing Water Yu looked at this face that was flushed with shame, and couldn't help but shake his head secretly, thinking that the other party was still a little tender, and he continued to sell Guan Zi at the moment, and said directly: "Since the other party is not here in the name of business trip, then it means that he has nothing to do with borrowing funds." If you really want to borrow funds, it must be a reciprocal priority, and there is an official letter. But since it's not borrowing funds, then it has another purpose, as for what this purpose is, I can't figure it out for a while, but it must be related to Hong Kong! ”

Kuroda Haruhiko's lowered head gradually raised because of this analysis, I have to say that Hasamiyu's analysis made him suddenly, although he did not guess the real purpose of Wang Xuehong's visit this time, but Hasamizu Yu is already very close to the truth.

"That'...... So what do we do now? Kuroda asked, stammering.

"Since we're here, of course we're going to receive it!" Although Hasamizu Yu also had doubts in his heart, but now that he is on Japanese soil, he doesn't have to worry about what will go wrong, so he smiled slightly and said calmly.

……

Late at night, in a high-end hotel in Shibuya, Tokyo, Yu Hayami received Wang Xuehong from mainland China in a private capacity.

Shibuya is one of Tokyo's most prosperous neighborhoods, with a rich mix of commercial and traditional customs, as well as a private visit, so after a few moments of discussion with Haruhiko Kuroda, Hasamizu Yu decided to host the hospitality.

After three rounds of drinking, Yu Hayami stopped his glass, looked around, and the geisha who were drinking for pleasure retreated, leaving only Wang Xuehong, Yu Hayami, Haruhiko Kuroda, and the translator in the room.

"Wang Sang, this time I'm here for Hong Kong!" Yu Hayami put down the wine glass and pointed out the other party's intentions directly, without the slightest politeness and foreshadowing.

Not only the translator, but also Haruhiko Kuroda was a little surprised by his insistence. However, Wang Xuehong didn't show too much surprise, just shook her head slightly, and said, "Governor Swift Water, what you said is right, I'm afraid it's not right." The reason why it is right is because I am indeed here for the affairs of Hong Kong, but the wrong thing is because I have no official mission at all, as long as I can eat with you, my mission will be accomplished! ”

Speaking of this, Wang Xuehong's face showed a self-deprecating smile, and she held the wine glass, as if talking to herself, and as if to say it to others, "Do you understand what I mean?" ”

Not to mention Hasamiyu, even the translator was confused by Wang Xuehong's inexplicable words, and after stammering and translating Hayamiyu, he added a large paragraph of his own words, and at the end he couldn't stop saying "Sumi Masan" (I'm sorry).

Tilting his head and thinking about it for a long time, Hayamiyu's eyes were confused at first, but as time passed, his eyes gradually became clearer, and in the end, even a ray of brilliance burst out, obviously, he figured it out.

"I think it's possible for us to work together!" beckoned and called Kuroda to his side, Hasamizu Yu leaned over and whispered something in his ear, Kuroda Haruhiko confessed to Wang Xuehong, and then left the room. After doing this qiē, Hasamizu Yu suddenly said something that shocked Wang Xuehong. (To be continued......)
