In the presence of lawyers from the Banking Association, Seryosha signed a legally binding letter of intent with Ian McGregor, the head of the UK's National Coal Commission, in his capacity as an authorized person of Glencore. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 As for whether the coal is from the Soviet Union or some other country, Seryosha and McGregor know each other, this time Seryosha not only wants to make money, if he makes money, he does not need to tell the other party the origin of the coal, he is more interested in improving his status by Gorbachev's side.

After concluding negotiations with McGregor, Seryosha immediately reported the matter to Gorbachev in secret. Gorbachev was concerned about Seryosha's inexperience in dealing with international affairs, and just in case, he wrote a letter to a trustee and brought it to London, asking Seryosha to give it to him when he met with Prime Minister Thatcher, and then destroy the letter himself. As for other things, Seryosha does not need to explain too much. Seryosha understood that he was still too young, and he was afraid that he would fall short, so Seryosha decided to follow Gorbachev's instructions, and his task was to meet Prime Minister Thatcher in person, and then take the letter from Secretary Go, and wait until the other party had read it before destroying it completely.

In the days that followed, Seryosha was at home during the day to follow the progress of the situation, and at night continued his business and social activities. Until the matter is done, Seryosha should not reveal his identity as a Soviet official. The people with whom he interacted were none other than bankers and the heads of some British state-owned enterprises. Although Seryosha does not know the specific direction of reform in Britain in the future, he does know one thing, that is, Prime Minister Thatcher seems to still hold the position of prime minister in the years after Xie Wenlong's birth, which means that Prime Minister Thatcher will definitely be re-elected until the next term. If this is the case, then the privatization advocated by Prime Minister Thatcher will also continue. From this, Seryosha can speculate that in the future, these large state-owned enterprises in the United Kingdom will soon be put on the shelves and left to be picked and selected.

Seryosha thinks that his talent in business is not excellent, but he can learn and imitate. I vaguely remember that before Xie Wenlong crossed through Hong Kong, the old man Li who claimed to have never lost anything in his life came to the United Kingdom, and bought the water supply, power supply, gas, communications and other companies related to people's livelihood here, and almost every British family has to contribute profits to the Li family's business every day, and these profits are very stable. It is no exaggeration to say that at that time, the Li family was like a British landlord, earning the basic living expenses of the British every day. According to this investment idea, if Seryosha can act thirty years in advance, he will slowly lay out. You can accomplish this feat at a fraction of the cost, and the whole of Britain will become its most stable source of funding.

It seems that some funds will be slowly transferred to the UK in the future, but these funds are not good for those black money of the mafia or drug lords. According to the exchanges between Seryosha and these British bankers in the past few days, Seryosha vaguely feels that the economic counterflex of Western European countries is slowing down or even declining. These bankers are tightening the flow of money overseas, and they have chosen a newly developed country in Asia, Japan, as their investment destination.

"You may not have thought of it. Most of the wine produced by our family's two wineries in France is now bought by the Japanese, who are really rich! James Rothschild said in casual conversation that Seryosha likes wine, and he knows that the wineries mentioned by James are the famous Lafite and Mouton, which are the top wine brands in the world!

"Who's to say it isn't! Do you know how many Rolls-Royce cars were sold to Japan last year? An old gentleman said with emotion.

"Mr. Ulyanov, do you have any business dealings with the Japanese?" James saw that Seryosha was just listening with a smile on the side, and he was afraid of snubbing the distinguished guest, so he quickly turned the topic to Seryosha.

"Not really, but I've heard that Yota Telecom is negotiating with the Japanese, and they seem to want to introduce Yota Communications' mobile communication solution, and it is said that the contract is about to be signed!" Seryosha replied casually.

"Those Japanese are really quick to start, our postmaster has been talking to the Americans for almost a year, and still has not been settled!" Someone commented pessimistically.

……

Seryosha chatted with these people and listened to them praise how good Japan's economy was. How bad it is on the British side. Seryosha suddenly realized the question of whether the legendary "Plaza Accord" was about to come. This is a great opportunity to make some quick money!

When it comes to getting rich overnight, Seryosha thinks of his two actions in the capital markets during the "whiskey on ice" incident and during the "Shield 82" seven-hour nuclear war. These two actions completely brought Seryosha's wealth to two new levels. Since then, Seryosha has had abundant capital to do what he wants. Now that I think about it, even if I had the advantage of news at the beginning, it was still extremely dangerous. Seryosha has passed the stage where he wants to gamble with his whole wealth, but it is feasible to make a fortune by pushing the boat down the river. Isn't it common for later newspapers to talk about the lost decade? This is a rare long-term short opportunity! However, if you just wait until the signing of the "Plaza Agreement" to short the Nikkei index and long the yen, it seems that it is not enough, after all, it is a country of devils, and Seryosha has to add some material to them.

"Is it profitable to invest in real estate in Japan now?" Seryosha asked suddenly.

"Of course, you can make a lot of money, but the Japanese are more xenophobic, and they don't want to sell their land to foreigners!" James replied with some regret.

"What about our financial investment? This is not unwelcome! Seryosha asked again.

"It's natural that the Japanese government certainly wants foreigners to invest in their stock and bond markets!" James replied on his own initiative.

"Gentlemen, I have a vision! Now that Japan's economy is so prosperous and its credit rating is so high, why don't we securitize it and sell it to large financial institutions as new financial derivatives again? Seryosha said to the banker next to him. Seryosha woke up the dreamer with a word, and everyone looked at him in surprise, as if they had discovered a new continent. Only Seryosha himself knows that he actually wants to help Japan establish a subprime loan securitization trading market, and if done properly, by the time the Plaza Accord is announced, it will cause a brutal subprime mortgage crisis.
