Chapter 26: Speculation of Identity
When a few people were seated, the butler also began to let the chef serve the dishes one after another.
In fact, it is just some ordinary home-cooked food, and there is no delicacies from the mountains and seas.
It seems that the richest man usually eats very ordinary.
In the southern region, if the host has a treat and the table is full of home-cooked food, then it means that the other party does not treat you as an outsider.
"Ah Wei, do you want to drink some wine?" Lin Zeju asked.
Chen Weidong shook his head slightly and said, "No, I don't like to drink or smoke, I'm afraid these will affect my thinking." ”
"Hehe, Mr. Chen, there are not many young people like you who don't smoke or drink anymore." Li Ka-shing seemed very satisfied, nodded and said.
"Mr. Li, if you see the outside, just call me Ah Wei, after all, I'm only eighteen years old." Chen Weidong is always a little unaccustomed to being called like this.
"Okay then."
"But, to be honest, I've always felt that you don't feel like a young man, but like an old man like me." Li Ka-shing took a sip of the soup, put down the spoon and said.
Lin Zeju and Li Xi'er both nodded slightly, indicating that they did feel this way.
"Haha, maybe I'm a teenager."
"Everyone knows that my hometown is Akarin, which is a relatively poor place, and the children of the poor are in charge of the family at an early age." Chen Weidong said casually, but he was surprised in his heart.
It seems that his usual every move is still too steady, so that it is beyond the "maturity" that should not be at this age.
Lin Jiacheng listened to it and smiled without saying a word.
"Ah Wei, have you heard? Now on the Thai side, foreign capital has begun to withdraw one after another. At this moment, Lin Zeju suddenly said.
"Yes, the depreciation of the yen has become a general trend, and there are more Japanese-funded companies in Thailand, and they will definitely choose to withdraw to the country." Chen Weidong also paid attention to this during this time.
The Plaza Accord led to the appreciation of the yen, which caused the RB's manufacturing costs to remain high, forcing all RB companies to relocate to Thailand, leaving only a bubble in the virtual economy within RB.
When RB companies moved to Thailand, the exchange rate of the Thai baht was pegged to the US dollar due to the depreciation of the US dollar, and the depreciation of the US dollar led to a significant increase in Thai exports.
However, now that the yen has also begun to depreciate, the situation is completely reversed.
RB needs manufacturing to return, then it will divest from other countries.
"The withdrawal of a large amount of foreign capital will inevitably affect the Thai economy, is it really as you said, will it trigger a financial crisis?" After a few months, Lin Jiacheng talked about this topic again.
"It's not just Thailand, it's the eight economies of Southeast Asia that will have a significant impact, and even South Korea has only lasted seven days before going bankrupt." Chen Weidong said bluntly. It's all like dominoes, and Thailand is just the first card to fall.
"What?! Bankrupt in seven days? How is this possible?! Lin Zeju's mouth opened wide and he was shocked.
Chen Weidong's face changed greatly, realizing that he might have made a big mistake, and hurriedly denied it: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake, I said it wrong." ”
Lin Zeju breathed a sigh of relief and rejoiced: "Scared me, I said, how can South Korea go bankrupt, this is a country, not a company." ”
"Maybe." Chen Weidong lowered his head and was busy eating vegetables.
All this was seen by Lin Jiacheng, he smiled slightly, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Lin Zeju said: "I'm still curious, who can affect the economy of the entire Southeast Asia with such great energy." ”
"Soros, you should have heard of it." Chen Weidong said.
"The guy who sniped the pound and broke the Bank of England?" Lin Zeju's face changed, and he immediately thought of him.
Chen Weidong nodded slightly and said, "In addition to his quantum fund, there is also the Tiger Fund, and a series of foreign funds, all of which will be involved." ”
"Dad, let's evacuate our business in Thailand quickly, Thailand will definitely not be able to resist it." Lin Zeju thought of the strength of these international financial giants, and hurriedly said to Lin Jiacheng.
"These will be considered by the group." Lin Jiacheng replied calmly, he is not like Lin Zeju who is impetuous, he has never seen any winds and waves in the ups and downs of the business sea over the years.
Seeing this, Lin Zeju opened his mouth, but still didn't speak again.
"Mr. Chen, do you think Xiangjiang is sure to withstand this financial turmoil?" Lin Jiacheng asked after a moment of silence.
"I think it's still very certain, after all, over there, it will definitely not sit idly by." Chen Weidong explained.
"Since you say so, then I'm much more relieved." Lin Jiacheng smiled, as if he was a lot more relaxed in an instant.
He is not one who cannot see the situation clearly.
Now that the return of Hong Kong is imminent, the relationship with the mainland will inevitably become even closer in the future.
The sun never sets on the empire is finally coming to dusk, and of course he knows very well which side to stand on.
"Mr. Lin, it's not too early, I should go back." Chen Weidong looked at the time and said a little apologetically.
"Hehe, I'm already glad you can come." Lin Jiacheng responded.
After some politeness.
Chen Weidong and Li Xier left the halfway villa.
......
Seeing off Chen Weidong and Li Xi'er, Lin Zeju returned to the living room.
At this time, Lin Jiacheng was already sitting on the sofa waiting, and he said with a solemn expression: "What do you think of what he said today?" ”
"According to what Awei said, as well as the summary of many analysts in the group, there is indeed a possibility of a financial crisis." Lin Zeju replied.
"Do you think it's possible for South Korea to go bankrupt in seven days?" Lin Jiacheng then asked.
"Unlikely." Lin Zeju shook his head, and when he thought that it was Chen Weidong who said it, his judgment was shaken, and he didn't dare to deny it directly.
"I think it's possible." Lin Jiacheng thought for a while and said.
It's not because of how much research he's done, but he has a gut feeling that this is the truth.
"Chen Weidong, although he looks young, does not do anything like a young person can do."
"Indeed, when I get along with him, I always feel as if he knows everything in advance, even if he makes billions, he doesn't seem to be excited." Lin Zeju recalled the previous incident and frowned.
"I remember when you were kidnapped, he called the phone number in our living room directly and contacted me directly."
"But I've never told anyone about my home phone number except a few of you." Lin Jiacheng said slowly.
"Is there a possibility that Ah Wei has known our family for a long time?" Thinking of a movie, Lin Zeju couldn't help but laugh.
