Chapter 225 The International Speculator Reappears

“……”

"Huh?"

After listening to Zhong Shi's words, even if he was as calm and calm as Cen Yinquan, he couldn't help but change his complexion, and he said again and again: "How is this possible?" Even the Chief Executive can't do anything about it! I'm afraid that only by delivering it to the high-level in the north will there be a glimmer of possibility! ”

"Not bad!" Zhong Shi nodded, looked at Ren Yigang, who was also shocked, and then continued, "Actually, I personally think that there must be political factors behind this currency storm. Not to mention anything else, it can be seen from the fact that international speculators have hit the Hong Kong market several times. The top brass of the central government must have seen this as well, so they will not sit idly by. At this time, it is up to the top of the Hong Kong government to make a request, believing that they should promote this matter as much as possible. ”

"But...... But ......"

Cen Yinquan said two "buts" in a row, but he still couldn't make up his mind, "This matter is too big, even if we are the Hong Kong government, it is impossible to influence the central government's decision-making, and we still have to focus on the overall situation." ”

Ren Yigang on the side also had a solemn face, but after thinking about it, he proposed another plan, "Can this be done?" It can be carried out by our funds first, or it can be combined with the funds of the People's Bank of China, but we must notify the other party in advance and withdraw it when the time is right. In this way, we will not need to make concessions elsewhere and will be able to achieve our goals. ”

"So?" Zhong Shi pinched his eyebrows and thought about it, then laughed dumbly, "Hey, these should be the questions you are considering, what else do I mix?" Now that I've told you the ins and outs of their funding. I also informed you of the corresponding response strategy, and you will talk to the people in the center about the rest. ”

As he spoke, he stood up and walked outside, but before he had taken a few steps, he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, you pay attention to the stock prices of some public utility companies, as long as there is a large inflow of funds, it means that the attack of international speculators is about to be launched." ”

After all that is said. Zhong Shi walked away in the eyes of Cen Yinquan and Ren Yigang looking at each other.

……

On the evening of August 4th. In the Zhong family's mansion in Repulse Bay, the family is sitting in the living room, chatting while watching the news on TV. In the picture, the good-looking female anchor is telling the news that happened in the mainland, and one of the news suddenly attracted everyone's attention. Vice Premier Huo Sixian presided over the third plenary meeting of the National Defense Headquarters. Flood control and flood control work will be deployed. ”

"Why is it raining so much this year?" Liu Lan sighed first. "I always felt a little uneasy in my heart, as if something big was going to happen."

"Mom, don't worry about it!" Zhong Xiaohui finished nibbling on a piece of cantaloupe. wiped his mouth casually, "The state attaches so much importance to it, and it will definitely allocate funds and deliver supplies." Besides, my uncle came two days ago, and we also donated a lot of tents or something, don't worry, my uncle will be fine. ”

"I hope so!" Liu Lan recited a sentence of Amitabha Buddha and kept silent.

"Little brother, you're very idle today!" Seeing Zhong Shi sitting quietly on the side without saying a word, Zhong Xiaohui felt a little strange, and couldn't help asking, "What?" Haven't been busy with your company lately? ”

"yes!" Zhong Jianjun also felt a little puzzled, and after looking at Zhong Shi, he asked with concern, "Some time ago, I got up early and was greedy for darkness, and I couldn't find anyone 24 hours a day, but now I actually have the time to sit with us and watch TV, is there something wrong?" ”

Since moving here, Zhong Jianjun and Liu Lan have stopped doing things, and simply lived a happy life, and in the past few years, both of them have gained a lot of weight. As the saying goes, "live and move the qi, nourish the body", and now Zhong Jianjun unconsciously added a bit of majesty when he spoke.

It's just that Zhong Shi didn't realize it, and still stared at the scrolling subtitles at the bottom of the TV screen, until Zhong Xiaohui urged him again and again, he suddenly realized, "Oh? Not bad, not bad, very good, very good! ”

The perfunctory answer suddenly made Liu Lan and Zhong Xiaohui laugh, while Zhong Jianjun slapped the coffee table very dissatisfied, and asked in a deep voice: "Watch me TV well, don't think nonsense!" ”

"Oh!" Zhong Shi replied casually, but after not sitting for five minutes, he stood up, yawned, and said, "Dad, Mom, I'm a little sleepy, go up and rest first." ”

"What the hell is he up to all day?" After Zhong Shi left, Zhong Jianjun asked Zhong Xiaohui in a low voice, "Why is it so abnormal recently?" Often distracted? ”

"Maybe it's a pat!" Zhong Xiaohui pursed her lips and smiled, glanced in the direction of Zhong Shi's room upstairs, sat a little closer, and said in a low voice, "Recently, my little brother has been running to my place very diligently, I suspect that he has taken a fancy to one of my subordinates......"

Then, the three of them began to gossip out of thin air.

……

In the upstairs room, Zhong Shi was on the phone, "Ma Sheng, just now Dow Jones opened a red line, and the trend is not good." I guess they will do it today, you always pay attention to the movement of the Hong Kong dollar foreign exchange market, I think either today or tomorrow, they may start to attack. ”

"Yes, Zhong Sheng!" Ma Jiarui replied on the phone, "We are also following the trend of the Dow Jones, although there was a small rise just now, but it was quickly suppressed." It has now fallen by 120 points, or 1.12%. I think international speculators want to take advantage of the linkage effect between various markets to take the opportunity to depress the Hong Kong stock market tomorrow. ”

"But Zhong Sheng, now is it time for us to enter the market? According to your instructions, we have thrown away seventy percent of our positions, and now we have all the cash in Hong Kong dollars, and the corresponding formalities and documents have been completed, you must know that with so much cash in hand, the interest lost every day alone is an astronomical amount. ”

At present, Tianyu Fund has sold nearly 70% of its positions, and after converting it into Hong Kong dollars, the cash lying in the account has reached about 90 billion Hong Kong dollars. And just idle, based on the 5% one-year deposit interest rate, the daily loss of interest income reached 12 million Hong Kong dollars.

Although Bell Stone's full plan is known, there are still many people within the Tianyu Fund who are dissatisfied with Bell Stone's inaction so far. They were not aware of the transaction between Bell Seok and the HKMA. Ma Jiarui conformed to public opinion and said in front of Zhong Shi in a timely manner.

"There's no rush on this!" Zhong Shi was stunned for a moment, and thought for a long time before he reacted. Of course, in his plan, this part of the cost of capital is not taken into account at all, "The international speculators have not yet launched, and if we enter the market now, we will undoubtedly seek our own death." By the way, regarding HSI futures and certain company stocks, have you noticed any changes? ”

"It's exactly as you might expect. There are unusual fluctuations in both directions! Ma Jiarui nodded subconsciously. However, the next moment, he realized that Zhong Shi couldn't see his actions at all, so he hurriedly said, "Hong Kong Electric Lights, China Gas and other public utility stocks. There were large inflows in the first two weeks. According to rumors. There was a buying order of 100 million Hong Kong dollars pouring into the Hongkong Electric. It took the broker more than a week to make a successful trade. ”

In some stocks, large purchases may lead to unusual price movements, which in turn can lead to follow-the-trend behavior. Therefore, after receiving the order, if the customer asks to sneak in quietly without attracting attention, the broker can only buy little by little, and then it will take a certain amount of time to complete.

"I know, this should be the hedging funds of international speculators!" Zhong Shi nodded, "In addition to these, what about the Hang Seng Index futures?" If I'm not mistaken, it should be that since July, the volume of transactions has continued to expand, or the turnover rate has increased, and most of them have not been flattened, and it has turned to August! ”

"As you can imagine, the turnover rate has reached 824 per cent in the last month." Ma Jiarui hurriedly reported, "I paid attention to it, basically the transaction situation is idling, and it is rare to see a large order in Shuangping." It seems that international speculators are indeed planning to make a big move in August, so much so that they will not let go of even the small orders of short retail investors. ”

The two were talking, and suddenly Zhong Shi heard Ma Jiarui's "surprise", followed by a long silence, and when the voice came out of the microphone again, he heard a rapid and low voice, "International speculators have begun to attack the Hong Kong dollar, and the London market and the New York market have coincidentally seen a large Hong Kong dollar sell-off, and the forward contract has opened a price of 7.75." ”

"Sure enough!" Zhong Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Now it's time for the FSMA to contribute!" ”

……

"International speculators are out!"

Sleepless traders in government buildings are nervously staring at the market, and when a series of large selling orders appear, almost everyone's first reaction is that international speculators are coming again.

In fact, due to the sluggishness of Hong Kong stocks for more than two consecutive months, and the complete disappearance of international speculators, everyone has hung a thousand catties of boulder in their hearts, making them feel that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings. The longer you are immersed in the market, the more you will have this sense of crisis, and today's table Xiàn just confirms this feeling.

"Let's go!" Shen Liantao, who was in command at the scene, was not in a hurry, first looked at the plate, and after estimating it in his heart, he said decisively, "Take their selling orders and make every effort to maintain the Hong Kong dollar above 7.75." We will take as much as they sell, and remember, we must keep the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate above the psychological defense! ”

Soon, the HKMA's funds entered the market, and the international speculators began to fight with the sellers, and the two sides began to buy and sell frequently at the opening of 7.7485, and the international speculators once forced the price of the Hong Kong dollar to 7.7495 Hong Kong dollars to huàn 1 US dollars, but the HKMA then began to exert force, step by step to recover the lost ground, and finally before the end of the transaction, the price of the Hong Kong dollar was pushed back to 7.7485 Hong Kong dollars per US dollar, and the rise and fall remained unchanged throughout the day.

"Good!"

When the global market stopped trading, a smile appeared on Shen Liantao's face. This time, everyone, including him, was unhurried and traded according to the established strategy. Although a total of about 3 billion US dollars of foreign exchange reserves were consumed, because he saw through the other party's plan, Shen Liantao was not worried about the follow-up development at all.

The Dow Jones opened at 8,788 points, with a high of 8,857 points, a low of 8,487 points, and closed at 8,487 points, down 299.42 points, or 3.41%. But this did not affect the reaction of the Hang Seng Index, although the Hang Seng Index had fallen for two consecutive trading days before this, but on this day, the Hang Seng Index only fell slightly by 114 points due to the influence of factors such as the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate not moving at all, and the decline momentum slowed down significantly, closing at 7366 points, down 1.14%, which can be called no reaction.

International speculators were very disappointed that the Hang Seng Index did not achieve their expected results under the dual pressure of the Dow Jones Industrial Index falling and attacking the Hong Kong dollar again. They didn't know what went wrong, but it was too early to tell, because there were a series of attacks to follow.

……

"This should be the immune response of the Hong Kong stock market!"

In a restaurant in Manhattan, Soros picked up a cloth, wiped his mouth, and said casually.

Sitting across from him was a somewhat absent-minded Julian. Robertson! (To be continued......)
