Chapter 224: The Eleventh Task Ah Q wants to be surnamed Zhao 16
The scale of UnionPay is really large and complex, and the account bank is also a younger brother in UnionPay. His scale is really shocking, but fortunately, Lu Renbing did not express his political position.
Even so, the newly enthroned Emperor Xuantong still gave Lu Renbing the title of Hubu Shilang and still worked in Huhai. In fact, there is no real power, and the official title of the late Qing Dynasty is no longer valuable. Anyway, Lu Renbing had no intention of rebelling, and on the side of the revolutionary party, Lu Renbing also donated.
It was now 1909, the rubber crisis had begun to brew, the price of rubber on the London futures market began to soar, and the shares of rubber companies began to soar.
In just two years, there are more than 40 Nanyang rubber companies listed on the Zhongye Public Exchange, and more than 200 rubber companies in London. Well, many of these companies are mines planted by Lu Renbing in advance.
After having the money, Lu Renbing had already sent someone to mobilize the money ability to go to the Nanyang enclosure, he was more conscientious, and he planted rubber seedlings in the real enclosure. Unlike Mai Bian's Langezhi, he is a leather bag from beginning to end.
Lu Renbing used various vests to open more than 50 rubber companies, and there are not too many wandering foreigners in Nanyang, so it is not too simple to borrow their identities to set up a company. Lu Renbing also acquired a number of local banks in Nanyang, and the company attracted local overseas Chinese to become shareholders, so that these companies had a strong Nanyang, Oriental and Western skin, and then operated and listed these companies on the world's major stock exchange markets.
The persons in charge and operators of the companies listed in these countries are all locals and have nothing to do with Lu Renbing. Lu Renbing's holdings in these companies are also very obscure, and they are all held in the name of various trust funds and banks.
If you have the ability to make money, it is not too simple to acquire some small foreign banks and establish some trust companies in places like India, Nanyang, and South Africa. The banking crisis in the United States still has some impact on these places.
Anyway, Emperor Gou Lu Renbing's use of money ability to hide his own things is almost deep in the bone marrow.
Later generations have always attributed this rubber crisis to conspiracy theories, because the role played by foreign banks and foreign banks in this speculation is too ugly.
But to be honest, this rubber crisis is really not a game set up by others, but just an inevitability of the times. This rubber speculation is a global linkage. It's just that the Chinese people have not experienced this kind of capital game, and they have been pitted the worst.
Once the speculation fever begins, no matter how rational people are, they will not be able to resist the temptation of a surge in wealth, and all of them, regardless of Huayang, will plunge headlong into it. Don't say that people at the end of the Qing Dynasty, even in the era of the popularization of higher education and the popularization of financial knowledge in later generations, there are still a lot of leeks that are invested in the stock market without hesitation and harvested?
Well, Lu Renbing plans to be the one who harvests leeks, whether it is a Chinese or a foreigner, he wants to cut it all in one.
In the past few years, his layout in the world is not just about building a reporter station. Relying on the reporter station, Lu Renbing mobilized his banknote ability and acquired many small newspapers in Tokyo, New York, London, and Paris.
Thanks to this era, there are not strict financial regulations, and press regulations. Lu Renbing already secretly has a network of newspapers covering major countries around the world.
After three years of operation, we finally began to exert our strength. The rubber crisis in history occurred mainly in London and China. Now thanks to Lu Renbing's efforts, it has finally happened all over the world.
First of all, the media in London and China began to exert their efforts to promote the prospect of eraser, and Lu Renbing indulged in the performance of McBian's hard work, raising the heat of rubber stocks. Lu Renping has also used the same tactics around the world to promote erasers. He will operate it as he does it.
It turns out that in the face of high profits, capitalists all over the world are licking dogs. As the stock prices of rubber companies, including Lu Renbing's fifty, soared, a rubber speculation craze that swept the world began.
The capitalists began to be unwilling to drink soup behind other people's butts, and they began to take money to the Nanyang circle to block land, hang up signs, declare that they had built a rubber company, and then began to sell stocks. At the beginning, Lu Renbing's newspapers kept exposing those leather bag and rubber companies, making some people disgraced and establishing the authority of his newspapers.
Of course, the reason behind the scenes is that those guys didn't buy the land he enclosed, so they wanted to come in and eat Lu Renbing's meat. Later, Lu Renbing's newspaper was no longer fake. Because the land in Lu Renbing's circle has been sold.
Then Lu Renbing began to exaggerate the rubber demand crisis all over the world, taking the contradiction between the sharp increase in the demand for rubber and the serious shortage of rubber production in the European and American automobile industries as an example, and constantly listed data to exacerbate the soaring price of rubber futures. Then there was the surge in the value of rubber company shares.
Rubber fever has become a trend all over the world, and Lu Renbing has already eaten it. As for Lang Gezhi, who is making waves in the Chinese market, Maibian has been swept out by Lu Renbing. Well, in that wave of counterfeiting, Lang Gezhi of Maibian was picked up by Lu Renbing, and left the scene in advance and made a wedding dress for Lu Renbing.
Most of the rubber companies listed on the Zhongye Exchange are Lu Renbing's vests, and the rubber companies run by foreign companies have been dismal because they have not been publicized by the newspaper group controlled by Lu Renbing. There is no way, there is no electronic screen and no network in this era. If there is no newspaper publicity, relying only on the propaganda of those agents, if they want to compete with Lu Renbing's company, it is simply an egg hitting a stone.
What if the foreign bank Taipan who can't get in the concession also wants to participate in this speculation? can only follow the trend to hype Lu Renbing's rubber companies.
Lu Renbing ate a lot of money. Unlike those foreign banks in the previous life, which ate a lot of money, the fattest meat was now eaten by Lu Renbing. Foreign-funded banks can only fight with those domestic money banks, and Lu Renbing's Huaxia Bank also pretended to enter the market.
The whole world is in a rubber speculative boom, even more so than in previous lives. By April 1910, Lu Renbing had left the market safely, and his money had been deposited in his banks in Nanyang, South Africa, India, Xiangjiang and other places.
In order to transport the money, Lu Renbing also sent his own elite guard of 2,000 people.
Well, in this era, banks don't raise some thugs, so how can they ensure financial security. Lu Renbing has raised as many as 10,000 elite paramilitaries around the world under various names. Well, in this era, there is no shortage of people in Huaxia. The speculation boom continued, and Lu Renbing's departure did not make much waves.
Then, Lu Renbing began to start his newspaper, began to pour cold water on the market, and called on people all over the world to calm down. Be aware of risks.
But people all over the world are crazy, and Lu Renbing's voice alone can't make any difference at all. Lu Renbing published an article in the Financial Times in China, explaining the danger, and no one paid attention to it. Well, after Lu Renbing posted an article, he didn't say more.
It's hard to persuade a damn ghost with good words!
In June, the rubber market in London plummeted, and the news spread to the world, and the bubble burst one after another, leaving a lot of chicken feathers in the field. There are many people who have made a fortune. There are not a few people who have to commit suicide with guns.
Lu Renbing is undoubtedly the fattest one, but people in China do not know, because Huaxia Bank is also involved in speculation and has suffered 'heavy losses', and there is a run on the bank everywhere. Fortunately, under the multi-party coordination of Chairman Lu Renbing, he "struggling" to maintain. However, for the time being, the original owner, UnionPay's other peers.
Well, foreign banks and banks don't eat as much as they have historically, but they can be regarded as full. These old devils are very dark-hearted, and they are not easy to defeat. They suffered losses in the stock market, but they ate a piece of fat from those ticket numbers in China.
It is not enough for the owner of the domestic ticket number to be dizzy, and it is not enough to indiscriminately issue bank bills and borrow the ticket number to deposit silver and speculate in stocks, but also to borrow from foreigners' banks to speculate in stocks. They deserve to be bankrupt.
