Chapter 284: Project Flame (Part II)
Ordinary people will understand more because of the more they are contacted, but Zhang Xuewu is the opposite, at first it is like a glass of white water, but the more contact it is, the more people will not know what is going on in his head? Especially those unbelievable whimsical ideas.
After Zhang Xuewu told Shen Hanze and Zhou Ying in detail about his intention and concept of preparing to launch the so-called financial offensive, Shen Hanze and Zhou Ying exclaimed in surprise and were almost speechless?
Shen Hanze and Zhou Ying are both in contact with the business and financial industry, the continuous Great Depression caused by the world financial crisis in 1929 has just eased a little, if this time then use the imperfection of the financial order as a breakthrough point to speculate, such people are not to make money, but to commit suicide, if once the world's economy collapses, European and American countries are likely to take extreme monetary protection measures in order to protect the interests of their own consortiums. Shen Hanze and Zhou Ying only saw the madness that ended up together in Zhang Xuewu's plan?
You must know that the use of inflation alone to raise prices and create financial chaos is extremely beneficial to either party, Zhou Ying looked at Zhang Xuewu puzzled: "I don't disagree with this plan, but using crude oil prices to promote the rapid development of the world economy and help Americans raise the price of silver in disguise?" Regardless of the starting point, China has suffered greatly. ”
Shen Hanze also nodded and said: "I very much agree with Miss Zhou's words, after several years of hard work and the hard work of countless people, the financial order of Wall Street has improved a little, for the world's financial order, although we don't know what this so-called nuclear bomb is, but if we blindly raise the price of crude oil, it will bring ruin to the financial market that has just improved, only if the market is good, everyone will make money, if the market collapses completely, then everyone can only hug each other and die." ”
Zhang Xuewu shook his head with a smile and said: "My purpose this time is to target Yueben, since the Great Depression, my situation is worse than that of Europe and the United States, because my foundation is very thin, the territory is narrow and resources are scarce, and now the war of aggression against China is completely carried out by the United States, Britain, and France. ”
Shen Hanze took a deep breath and said, "You are killing three thousand enemies and losing eight hundred!" And at the same time as pushing up the price of oil, it is also necessary to push up the price of silver, the way of doing it is not something that can be described in a few words, I am afraid that at a critical moment, it will lead to relevant interference from the US political axe, there is no shortage of cool-headed financial predators among the Americans, it is difficult to do without their support, this will be a war depicted in the Bible to destroy the world! Everything will be destroyed! ”
Zhou Ying also echoed on the side: "In the early stage, there may be some people who follow our actions, and the excessive economic bubble of false prosperity will create a situation that will push up international oil prices for China, especially for the current 10th Theater, and the mechanized troops of the 10th Theater do not need oil?" Pushing up oil prices may work, but pushing up international silver prices is simply suicide for China! ”
Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath and said: "After all, China is still quite backward, so when the economic crisis breaks out, its impact is limited, killing 3,000 enemies and losing 800 is also worth fighting, saying that I am now holding an American loan in this war, the United States has set up an arms export embargo on China, we can only buy the strategic materials we need for military use from the black market at a high price, but the United States has not set such an embargo on this book?" Scrap steel, aero engines, rubber, crude oil, all kinds of industrial products that can be used for military purposes, there is no reason for the American people to be out of the world! The sky is falling, everyone is dying together! ”
Shen Hanze glanced at Zhou Ying meaningfully, he was shocked by Zhang Xuewu's madness, the shadow of the Great Depression was already terrifying, and now he had to open the door to hell with his own hands? What seems to be an extremely beneficial act for the United States will actually lead to a massive regression in the US economy that will surpass the catastrophe of 1929 once the final result gets out of control and the countless bubbles burst.
Such a huge plan was so lightly formulated by Zhang Xuewu? While using the funds to make the oil price futures contract rise and speculate on the futures price of the country's silver market, it is tantamount to strangling his foreign exchange reserves in disguise, because in the international world, only the US dollar can buy oil futures, and the biggest source of repaying US loans is to forcibly plunder from China's occupied areas, and in order to repay the loans, he must exchange the silver he has plundered into US dollars, and the silver bull market has caused a large amount of silver from the occupied and non-occupied areas to flow into the United States. He said that even if he started a war, he would not be able to obtain enough silver, and without silver there would be no dollar, and without dollars he would not be able to buy oil.
As a result, the dollar has depreciated relative to a package of strategic military supplies, which has accelerated the consumption of foreign exchange reserves, and it has no foreign exchange reserves to purchase enough crude oil for the combined fleet, so it has strengthened his determination to go south, and if he says that he will directly challenge the Southeast Asian interest circle of Europe and the United States, it will be a matter of time before he pulls the Americans into the war circle, and it will not be so easy for the Americans to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight like in World War I.
Zhou Ying flipped through the information prepared by Zhang Xuewu and said: "Now the price of international standard light North Sea crude oil is about three US dollars a barrel, and the futures index of 30, 60 and 120 is floating between 0.3 US dollars, and we need to mobilize a large amount of capital and a strategic partner who can receive crude oil on a large scale." ”
Zhang Xuewu smiled and said: "In this regard, the Soviets can receive a large number of 20 million barrels of crude oil before transshipment to Suiyuan, and then the speculation is mainly focused on the silver futures index and crude oil futures index, and there are Soviets involved in it, it is relatively safe for you, and next month the Soviet Union will provide us with a loan of 300 million US dollars, of which 200 million can be provided to you as reserve funds." ”
Shen Hanze smiled and said: "This is just a breeze caressing the sea, on the basis of the logical theory formula, the breeze will soon turn into a storm or even a storm, I want to remind you for the last time, we single-handedly instigated the storm, but we have no ability to stop it, then everything will be out of control, so we must also prepare relatively early, and once the international silver price is pushed up on a large scale, I am afraid that the impact on the country will be extremely far-reaching and huge!" ”
Zhou Ying said very calmly: "The US Roosevelt political axe in the promotion of the Silver Act has actually created the price of silver on the way, our current actions are only to accelerate this process, the so-called silver group in the United States has many reasons to raise the price of silver and promote the "Silver Acquisition Act", the Chinese market has always been a very important topic. ”
On the one hand, the Americans believe that China is a big country that still uses silver as currency, and has accumulated a large amount of silver, although China's political axe demanded to abandon the silver standard in the 18th year of the Republic of China, but due to the resistance of domestic banks and the domestic habit of using silver as currency, China is in fact the only big country that still adheres to the silver standard, and it is also the most populous country in the world, which helped the United States to get out of the economic crisis at that time.
On the other hand, in fact, while raising the price of silver, the Americans can use this to attack China's industrial system and weaken the competition between Chinese goods and American goods, because the low price of silver has led to a continuous decline in China's international purchasing power, and Chinese can only buy cheap goods from its own country, which promotes the development of China's industry and reduces the sales of American goods in China, thus making China the most destructive competitor of the United States in the world market. If the price of silver is raised, the Chinese currency will appreciate sharply, directly increase the cost of China's industrial products, and weaken the competitiveness of Chinese products against American products, thus benefiting American entrepreneurs and farmers.
Shen Hanze nodded and said: "The Americans' silver bill is actually the biggest strangulation of China's emerging national industrial system and national industry, in the spring of the twenty-fifth year of the Republic of China, the international silver price exceeded more than fifty percent of the domestic silver price, and the export of silver can make a profit of 300 to 400 yuan per thousand yuan.
The collection of the silver export tax and the balance tax formulated by the national political axe can not fundamentally curb the outflow of silver, but it only increases the amount of silver smuggling in disguise, and foreign banks in the country have extraterritorial jurisdiction, and there are a large number of silver stocks, although the national political axe has repeatedly issued decrees prohibiting the export of silver, but how can it effectively prevent foreign banks from smuggling silver dollars on a large scale and making direct profits? Moreover, he himself is also playing this trick on a large scale, extracting a large amount of silver dollars from the Kuomintang area, and in the occupied area, the use of silver dollars and the smuggling of silver dollars are serious crimes punishable by capital punishment.
The rise in the price of international silver means a sharp appreciation of China's currency, coupled with a large amount of silver exports, the foreseeable result is that China's prices will fall, domestic silver circulation will decrease, credit will shrink, interest rates will rise, severe deflation, and the rising value of currency will be a disaster for China's interests, because it will bring serious deflation.
Shen Hanze knocked on the table with his hand and said, "I'm afraid that after this move, there will be a lot of mourning in the country!" And we only have the power to help the troubles, but we have no ability to return to the sky! ”
Zhang Xuewu took a deep breath and said: "The sooner we defeat Yue, the sooner we can build the country, it is worth sacrificing one or even two generations, we can't worry too much about the pots and jars at home now, the house is burned down and rebuilt!" ”
