Chapter 308: Seoul Summit (2)

"Talk slowly!"

Min Yusheng was very eye-catching, quickly stood up, bent down slightly and said to everyone, "Gentlemen, I'll go to the bathroom first!" ”

Naturally, he thought that what the crowd was talking about was not suitable for the audience, so he proposed to take a break with great interest.

Seeing Zhong Shi, and then Paulson, Dario, and Gross, Min Yusheng immediately realized what these people were planning. When he heard about Ireland, it immediately dawned on him. Although he knew the direction of the other party, he still held back the curiosity in his heart and took the initiative to leave the table.

"Relax, my friend, you can stay here!"

After thinking about it for a while, Zhong Shi understood what Min Yusheng was thinking, and after exchanging glances with Paulson and the others, he dissuaded Min Yusheng, "I think you should also be very interested in the topic we are talking about now, so you might as well sit down and listen." ”

"Good! Good! ”

Min Yusheng was overjoyed, and the footsteps he had just taken were suddenly retracted, and he sat down cross-legged again with a smile, and made up his mind that he only pricked up one ear the whole time.

"The Irish government can't sit still now, and neither can the EU!"

Zhong Shi crossed his fingers and counted, "Just yesterday, their 10-year Treasury yield broke through 8%. This result forced Renehan to take the initiative to step up and calm the market's emotions, but in fact they were not able to achieve their goal. Although they have some cash reserves so far, when the first bond matures, they will quickly deplete that part of their cash reserves, and they will not be able to turn to the outside world for help. ”

"From my point of view, the current Irish government should have put the need for help on the agenda, otherwise they would not have sent a special assistant to Seoul. These few days will be the key to the whole thing, and success or failure will be in one fell swoop. ”

"Well, we've all heard!"

Dario groaned for a moment. Then he said, "They have already discussed with us about the plan to raise money, although the amount is not small, but it is still within the scope of our bearing, so we all agreed!" ”

"Also about the chain reaction. We also set it up according to your pre-arrangement, and we are waiting for the day when they make a decision. ”

Paulson followed suit, saying, "I believe that if it really happens as we have arranged, then the whole of Europe will have an unimaginable sensation." ”

As he spoke, he involuntarily laughed.

This scene fell into the eyes of several girls, and they all despised Paulson, the old pervert, and laughed lewdly and lewdly. For these superficial girls, they don't understand what the EU is and what is the yield of government bonds, and as long as these dignitaries can lift them once or twice, they will be easily satisfied.

But for Min Yusheng. These terms are not unfamiliar. The more he listened, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but mutter, what these people were planning.

"Huh?"

It wasn't until the girl next to him pushed him that he woke up from his contemplation, looked at the girl next to him in a daze, followed the other party's eyes, and met Zhong Shi's smiling gaze.

"Mr. Min, what are you thinking? So fascinating? ”

Zhong Shi looked at Min Yusheng meaningfully. "Can you tell us about it?"

"Nothing, nothing!"

Min Yusheng smiled dryly and waved his hand repeatedly. I wanted to make a haha, but when my eyes noticed the banter in the eyes of the other people, and the disdain of the women around them, a sense of pride suddenly involuntarily emerged from his chest, and he immediately straightened up and asked in a deep voice. "Mr. Chung, are you talking about the Irish national debt?"

"Not bad!"

Zhong Shi picked up a glass of soju, tilted his head and poured it into his throat, grinning for a long time before asking. "I wonder what Mr. Min thinks about the current situation of the Irish national debt, or the debt situation of the European Union?"

"Me?"

Looking at the anticipatory eyes around him, although Min Yusheng was not a front-line professional, he couldn't weaken his reputation in front of these people, so he immediately cleared his throat and said calmly, "According to my opinion, although there are some rumors about the Irish national debt, because of the existence of the European rescue mechanism, they can still survive this crisis in the end." ”

Even though he knew very well that most of the guests here might be involved in shorting Ireland, Min Yusheng was a little unimpressed by their actions, and even if he was a little unpolite, he still said it calmly.

"Actually, I agree with you!"

Just when Min Yusheng was a little apprehensive, Zhong Shi suddenly said something that shocked him.

"This ...... This ......"

He suddenly stammered, pointed at the other and said, "But...... But what you just said wasn't intended to be short Irish bonds? ”

This sudden shift made it very difficult for him to adapt. He knew very well what the few people here were doing. At least in his view, shorting Irish government bonds may be profitable in the short term, but the Irish government will not repeat the mistakes of Greece, because the establishment of the EU rescue mechanism will spare no effort to help the Irish government tide over the difficulties.

"We just shorted a little bit. The recent problems with the Irish national debt and the banking sector are the ones we provoked. ”

In response to Min Yusheng's surprise, Zhong Shi just smiled slightly, opened his mouth to swallow the seaweed bun sent by Park Sun-eun, chewed it slowly for a long time, and then said softly, "But we are planning another big plan, that is, to persuade Ireland to leave the eurozone." ”

"What?"

Min Yusheng's heart shook violently, and as soon as his hand trembled, the wine glass fell to the wooden board and shattered. Realizing his attitude, he hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to wipe the wine on his body, so as to hide the shock in his heart.

When he raised his head again, he looked at a few smiling bigwigs again, and then realized that the other party was probably really true. Because the combined net worth of these people is enough to cope with the size of Ireland's national debt.

"It's a big game!"

He struggled to squeeze out a smile and said dryly, "I don't know...... I didn't know you guys were playing so big. ”

"How? Interested in joining? ”

Zhong Shi looked at Min Yusheng's panic with interest, smiled disapprovingly, and then made another suggestion that made Min Yusheng's heart tremble, "So far. We already have a certain division of contributions. However, if you apply, I can give you some of the places in the Tianyu Fund. ”

"This ...... This ......"

Min Yusheng didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only pick up a glass of wine under the pretext, but he was choked too quickly, and began to cough violently, and his face turned red. For a long time, with the help of the female companion around me. Only then did he calm his breath, and when he raised his head again, he said to Zhong Shi with a wry smile on his flushed face, "Mr. Zhong, I don't dare to get involved in such a game. You know, the South Korean government ......"

"Oh, I see, I see!"

Zhong Shi seemed to understand something. Only then did he suddenly pat his head and said with annoyance, "I forgot, this matter was planned by the British government and the US government, and we are just the financiers who paid for it." It is indeed my negligence, and you are not fit to participate in this matter. ”

Because of the state-owned status of the Korea Development Bank, they basically cannot bypass the government when making major decisions. Arguably. Without the instructions of the South Korean government, Min Yusheng, the president, would basically be unable to do anything.

I don't know if it's intentional or not. Zhong Shi revealed another secret, that is, this matter was planned by the British government and the US government, and these people here are only part of it.

Min Yusheng's face suddenly became cloudy, he understood the meaning of this passage too well.

If the whole thing was planned by Zhong Shi and others, he would definitely take it as a joke, because even if these people were rich, they would rival the country. Nor can it shake the regime of a country. But if it is the United States and the United Kingdom, the nature of the whole thing is different, and this involves the wrestling between countries.

Although he is not a high-level government, Min Yusheng's level is already able to know some unspoken rules of world operation. For example, the debt crisis currently taking place in Europe is essentially an economic war waged by the United States against Europe.

Such a big conflict. Even the South Korean government did not dare to get involved, let alone a small Korea Development Bank.

But he is also very clear about the meaning of Zhong Seok's words, if it can be done properly, it is not only them, but even the whole of South Korea may benefit a lot from this change.

For a moment, he was a little restless.

"So what can we do?"

He asked tentatively, "I mean Korea Development Bank." If Ireland does leave the eurozone, what will happen next? ”

Zhong Shi naturally knew about his temptation, and glanced at the other party with interest, and then said lightly in a nonchalant tone: "Of course, the entire euro area will fluctuate violently, and the euro will also fall sharply. Because as soon as this opening is opened, the market's doubts about the unity within the eurozone will be maximized, and the bonds, stock markets, and foreign exchange of various countries will be sold frantically, and the whole world will be in chaos. ”

This answer was similar to what Min Yusheng expected, and when he heard this, he was sure that Zhong Shi didn't mean to lie to him, nodded solemnly, stood up again, excused himself to go to the bathroom, and left the private room.

"Wouldn't there be anything wrong with you telling him that?"

When Min Yusheng left, Paulson couldn't wait to ask, "He's an outsider after all, and it's unlikely that he's involved, but is it necessary for us to tell him about it?" ”

The others obviously had such doubts, and all of them looked at Zhong Shi intently, expecting the other party's explanation.

"You may not know that the Korea Development Bank has a lot of Irish government bonds!"

Zhong Shi picked up his glass and took another sip before slowly explaining, "Imagine if Ireland were to leave the eurozone, would they continue to hold these bonds?" ”

"What do you mean?"

Paulson's face changed, and he said with surprise and delight, "Will they also sell Irish government bonds in the current market?" ”

"And maybe the euro!"

"There are other countries that are now trading at normal prices, and maybe they're looking at reducing their holdings as well." And this reduction is not made by the Korea Development Bank, but by the entire Korean capital, and even their Ministry of Finance. ”

"Now you understand my intentions, right?"

Zhong Shi spread his hands and said proudly, "He is also in my calculations. But if they don't do anything, it won't affect the overall situation. Because they only know that we have this intention, and they don't know what the chances of success are, and they don't know what kind of deal we will make with the Irish government privately, so I think they will end up reducing their holdings just to be on the safe side. ”

"Clever!"

Jim, who has been silent. Chanos couldn't help but give Zhong Shi a thumbs up, and then changed his words and said, "But if Huaxia can also join in, this game will be even more fun!" ”

"Who knows?"

Zhong Shi lowered his eyes and said in a low voice, "Everyone, wait quietly for my news." ”

"These girls?"

It was clear that Bell Stone didn't want to talk about it, and Griffin triumphed away from it, "What are they going to do?" Do we need to take them back tonight? ”

"It's up to you!"

Jong Seok took out the check from his bosom, wrote a few numbers in a swipe, and handed it to Park Sun-eun beside him, "This is a fair deal, I don't want to owe anyone anything." (To be continued.) )
