Chapter 1061 Hearing
A confused phone call.
Han Xuan couldn't understand why Fat Ding got the inheritance. Even if he had relatives, he should be a cat.
Could it be that relatives left it with a salted fish or a mouse?
I can't figure it out at all.
Executive Anthony did not understand the specific situation, and the lawyer did not say much. Han Xuan planned to go to Philadelphia to find out the situation in person after finishing the work here.
I went to Four Seasons Hotel to book a room, and took a bath after washing up in the luxuriously decorated executive suite.
Wearing pajamas and drinking a glass of milk before bed, enjoying the night view of Washington outside the window, then climbing onto the bed and hugging Fat Ding, sleeping until dawn...
The next morning, I got up and put on my suit, and then I went out after I was ready.
The weather is already very hot in May, and the sun hanging in the air is baking the earth. The car is turned on and the air conditioner will not sweat.
The Federal Reserve Headquarters is a white building, unlike the traditional Gothic style. The pillars at its door are square, and the specific style is not visible, but they are quite distinctive.
Today it is particularly lively.
Looking around, there were reporters and police officers who came to maintain order. Luxury cars came one by one. Those who got off the bus were executives or directors of major banks.
The reason why it is so lively is that today the Federal Reserve will announce its decision whether to raise interest rates again.
Decision-making will affect economic fluctuations around the world, and those financial journalists naturally attach great importance to this.
When Han Xuan arrived, he saw the Rolls-Royce convoy with a single digital license plate. Many people knew who the owner was immediately flocked to him and ran towards him.
Han Xuan came to attend today, which was an unexpected surprise for these reporters. When the bodyguard helped open the car door, a reporter from the Wall Street Journal asked loudly: "Han! Are you here to attend the hearing today?"
“That’s right.
It's good that I don't exist, I just happened to be in Washington, D.C. and come and check it out."
Han Xuan replied to the reporter.
Today's meeting was not important at all, and he came to attend more for symbolic meaning.
Being able to attend the Federal Reserve hearing said that the status of China Banking has been improved compared with the previous one, which can increase China Banking's influence.
Mr. Greenspan told him in advance last night that this round of interest rate hikes have been confirmed.
He doesn't need to say anything at this meeting. Just sit next to you and listen quietly. If you have any questions, you can ask the Federal Reserve to give an answer at the hearing.
The upcoming meeting is just the Federal Reserve Management Committee, explaining to them, the Fed members why interest rate hikes and holding hearings on the future outlook for the United States and monetary policy.
Similar hearings are held every six months, and are usually scheduled in June.
Next month, President Greenspan's schedule is very tight and he needs to travel to five countries in succession, so he advanced this meeting in the first half of this year...
When he heard the reporter ask him whether he would support the interest rate hike, Han Xuan replied with a smile:
“Of course it supports it.
With international working capital coming to China, our American economic market will become more prosperous and residents will have more job opportunities.
The stock market, real estate market, and all kinds of consumer markets will develop rapidly because of this. I agree with Mr. Greenspan's decision this time."
The answer is too official and too formal, and this is not what the reporters want.
So a reporter from the Washington Post dug a hole and asked Han Xuan: "So what impact will this have on other countries?"
What impact can it have? The economic development has declined, Han Xuan thought to himself.
He said: "It's not long after the economic crisis has ended. Once the US market stabilizes, we entrepreneurs have the ability to drive the exhibition in other countries. This is a win-win situation.
For example, in the next ten years, I will invest at least 3 billion US dollars in Huaxia6. I personally am optimistic about the market there.
After all, it is a country with a large population, and its consumption potential has not been fully revealed..."
Among the crowd, Xinhua News Agency reporters who heard his words were instantly excited, and a sentence popped out of their mouths, shouting: "Really?"
"Of course it's true. Our company is already making arrangements for this and sending people to inspect the market environment. Therefore, this rate hike is not necessarily a bad thing for other countries.
Sorry, the meeting is about to begin. I need to enter now. Let’s talk about it when it is over..."
When Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and other countries faced such a large investment amount, they were so envious... like a overturned vinegar bottle, full of sour smell.
But there is no way, who made him Chinese?
Han Xuan invested in the country of his compatriots, and no one had any reason to say anything. They only blamed their overseas compatriots for not being able to achieve such outstanding achievements as Han Xuan.
The Xinhua News Agency's foreign journalist had a proud expression.
I immediately urged my colleagues to convey this news back to China. Such a large amount of foreign investment has never appeared since the reform and opening up...
Han Xuan squeezed out of the crowd under the escort of the bodyguards and hurried towards the Federal Reserve's gate.
This face is known to everyone in the United States. Fed staff did not ask him to show invitations, nor did they search his personal belongings like others, so they led Han Xuan in.
The interior decoration is not too luxurious, and it can even be said to be a bit simple.
It is hard to imagine that institutions that manage the US dollar bank will work in such places, with a profit of over 10 billion US dollars a year, and they will not be short of money to decorate. I can only say that it is very low-key.
He was busy saying hello all the way, and old acquaintances from Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and other companies came. At this time, he heard someone calling his name and the voice was very familiar. Han Xuan stopped and turned around, and Bloomberg and Soros came together.
The admission certificates on their chests were different from his. Han Xuan attended the event with the chairman of Huamei Bank and representatives of Fed members, and these two were representatives of the financial investment industry.
Soros has always been a regular visitor to the Federal Reserve meeting. He was able to learn from the hearing about the latest financial trends in the United States and other countries in the world over the next period of time.
This is Bloomberg's first time. Bloomberg News has now gained a foothold in the financial industry and its influence continues to expand, so it is natural to invite him.
The top class, the smaller the circle.
Han Xuan almost knew or heard of the people who came to participate today. It was not surprising that he met these two people and said with a smile: "Good morning, let's go in together.
Mr. Soros, you have experience in attending the hearing. What do you need to do during this period?”
“Nothing needs to be done.
The content is boring and the meeting is long, so it will probably not end until four or five o'clock in the afternoon.
But don't worry, we will be given about half an hour to have lunch, a very unpalatable small bread.
I asked the secretary to prepare it separately and send it to me after the morning meeting. Then we will have enough portions."
Han Xuan smiled bitterly.
Chapter completed!
