"The Wrong Car" in Taiwan a week box office of NT$6 million, a new high at the weekly box office, Lin Qingxia starring Xiaomei has received a very high evaluation, it is said that someone has said that they want to nominate it for the Golden Horse Award actress, Lin Qingxia is promoting all over Taiwan, more and more people bring their families to watch this movie, Taiwan's era is a confused generation, family, friendship, love is gradually corroded by money, power, etc., the emergence of this drama has awakened many people's desire for family, friendship, and love.
At this time, Teresa Teng, who had been preparing for more than two months, launched her "Faint Romance" album in Taiwan, which immediately caused a sensation as soon as it came out, especially Teresa Teng's autograph session at the gate of Taiwan University was even more popular.
Teresa Teng put the four songs written by Ye Chengkang at the front, many people like these songs very much when they hear them, and when they see that the composition is all Kang Shao, I think of Teresa Teng's single "I Only Care About You" some time ago It seems that this is also the king, many people are asking who Kang Shao is, and well-informed people will immediately tell him or her that Kang Shao is the author of "Heroes", and I heard that he is now the behind-the-scenes boss of Hong Kong ATV, and there is also the just-released "The Wrong Car" and the theme song and interlude are all works of this gentleman, and Hong Kong has now launched "Kang Shaopin Three Kingdoms" is said to be so popular, many people are asking friends in Hong Kong to watch the video, it seems that there are praises and criticisms, but most of the people praise them. It detonated all of a sudden, books, screenwriters, lyrics and music, almost all-round talents, the most important thing is that almost no one has seen his true face of Lushan now, according to Teresa Teng's fans, his appearance is all a mask, and it is super cool. Many of Teresa Teng's fans also automatically turned into hardcore fans of Kang Shao, and began to collect Kang Shao's works to watch.
Ye Chengkang doesn't care about this, he is on the phone to control Fang Qiaorong to buy and sell foreign currency, because of the entry of Hong Kong banks, foreign currency speculation is no longer a secret, because a large amount of money investment has not been as obvious as before, now Ye Chengkang is thinking about other sources of wealth, he described the speculation futures crude oil prices, crude oil prices from the Iran-Iraq crisis: Iran and Iraq crises led to a new round of crude oil price increases from 1979 to 1980. The Iranian Revolution from November 1978 to June 1979 led to a reduction in crude oil production of 2 million to 2.5 million barrels per day. The 1980 Iran-Iraq war led directly to a 2.7 million b/d cut in Iraq's crude oil production and a 600,000 b/d cut in Iran. In connection with these two events, the price of crude oil rose from $14/b in 1978 to $35/b in 1981. The United States imposed price controls on domestically produced crude oil in an attempt to cushion the impact of rising oil prices during the 1973-1974 period. One clear result is that U.S. consumers pay 48 cents more for imported crude than for domestically produced crude. In the United States, domestic producers have reduced their revenues accordingly. In the short term, the recession caused by the high crude oil prices of 1973-1974 lessened. From 1979 to 1980, Saudi Arabia's oil minister repeatedly warned other OPEC members that high oil prices would dampen demand for crude oil in the face of rising crude oil prices. His warnings fell on deaf ears. Rising oil prices have led to several reactions among consumers: the use of oil insulation in new homes, the improved insulation of oil in older houses, the improved energy efficiency of many industrial productions, and the increase in miles per unit of fuel consumption in automobiles. These factors, combined with the impact of the global recession on demand, have led to a decline in crude oil prices. Unfortunately for OPEC, the recession is temporary, but when the price of oil comes down, no one rushes to remove insulation from houses, no one replaces high-utilization equipment, and many of the responses to rising crude oil prices are permanent. The $18/barrel target set by OPEC in December 1986 was immediately broken in January 1987. Oil prices continue to remain weak. With Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990, oil prices rose but entered a steady decline after the end of the war, until 1994, when inflation-adjusted oil prices reached their lowest point since 1973.
So on the same day, he asked Fang Qiaorong to put all the 15 million US dollars in his hand into the futures market, the weakness of oil prices and gold is a foregone conclusion, anyway, now 15 million US dollars will not be noticed, so inadvertently, Ye Chengkang is in the continuous appreciation of the assets in his hands.
Ye Chengkang is now paying attention to the fact that the price of diamonds is gradually rising, and he is considering asking Zhao Fei to organize a team to go to South Africa to buy small diamond mines to mine, which is a profitable industry, but it is necessary to be tough in hand and have enough weapons and equipment to arm people, so that diamonds can be smoothly exchanged for banknotes after mining, but Ye Chengkang is not worried about this problem at all, and his back is backed by China** Zhao Fei of the team should be able to solve this problem, and the sales are even more worrying, Yang Shoucheng's deeds he knows, next year he can build a gem city by himself, and now there is Bai Zishu's status in 14K and the new Ngee An, The relationship with Shenghe wants to buy the liquidated good world real estate in advance, and use it to open a jewelry city, without Yang Shoucheng, he can also introduce domestic and Japanese tourists to patronize the jewelry city, as long as the jewelry city opens smoothly, it is a golden rooster that lays eggs, and Yang Shoucheng will only be released from prison next year, with his ability is enough to make Yang Shoucheng his worker, as long as there is enough financial support, Yang Shoucheng will definitely return enough remuneration.
So Ye Chengkang began to pay attention to the news of the diamond mine in South Africa, and asked Zhao Fei to contact the domestic preparatory personnel, and asked Zhao Fei to explain to the person in charge of the country that Ye Chengkang was responsible for the development. The proceeds from the sale of diamonds are divided into two, one is used by Ye Chengkang for the development of the jewelry city itself, and the other is handed over to Zhao Fei to deal with, which is divided into several parts, one for the resettlement fund for veterans, one for the inland Hope Primary School, and one for the construction fund of inland medical institutions, of course, nominally in the name of Ye Chengkang to operate, otherwise some people will say that it is the private behavior of Zhao Fei and others, if it is Ye Chengkang's overall planning, there will be a large number of people to support and effectively implement. Besides, this is also a major event for the benefit of the country and the people, in that era, there were not many people who really did it in these aspects, and Ye Chengkang would also use the power in his hands to supervise, there are a lot of talents in Hong Kong's auditing, and some of them are still working in the world's large enterprises, as long as there is money, it is very common for these people to work part-time outside.
