Chapter 141 So far

Early in the morning on August 17, Li Yiwen and Wei Liqun came to see Lu Yiming together.

Last night, I was rewatching Xiangjiang's "old movies" on the TV until midnight. Lu Yiming was yawning non-stop. Li Yiwen couldn't help but became extremely nervous and persuaded: "Stop it. The global stock market plummeted today. Xiangjiang only escaped the disaster by suspending the market."

, If you surrender now, you will lose half at most and leave the green hills without worrying about having no firewood."

Lu Yiming washed his face, but his expression remained unchanged: "Wait and see."

After saying that, he picked up the remote control, turned on the TV in the room, and kept changing channels.

Li Yiwen thought Lu Yiming was also panicked, and used this action to cover up his panic.

He is now worried that Lu Yiming is young and energetic. If he cannot accept failure for a while and falls down from this building, how will Li Yiwen explain to his second aunt and his family after he returns?

Just as he was about to speak, Lu Yiming stopped changing channels.

An urgent international news break is being played on the TV.

Lu Yiming's eyes widened when he saw it, he slapped his thigh hard, breathed a long sigh of relief, and slumped down on the sofa, saying: "This damn good news is finally here."

At a certain moment, he actually had worries, that is, he never considered whether he, a reborn person, would change the direction of things just because of the flicker of his little butterfly wings.

Uncontrollable.

I have to admit that Lu Yiming panicked when he thought of this possibility.

But now it seems that, if nothing else, at least Maozi's actions are on schedule.

Mao Zi’s policies in response to the financial crisis were reported in the news, and they can be said to be extremely simple and crude.

Maozi realized that he could not defeat the international speculators, so he simply changed the rules of the game - on August 17, 1998, he launched three tough emergency measures in front of reporters and media from all over the world.

The first is foreign exchange control: expanding the floating range of the ruble exchange rate and lowering the upper limit of the ruble exchange rate to 9.5:1. This actually depreciates the ruble's exchange rate against the US dollar from 6.295 to 9.5, a depreciation of more than 50%.

The second is debt default: a 90-day extension to repay the $15 billion in maturing foreign debt. Convert the domestic debt repayment period, converting $20 billion worth of treasury bonds that matured before December 31, 1999 into three-, four-, and five-year medium-term

National debt.

The third is to close trading. The Russian government bond market will suspend trading before the conversion is completed, which means that Russia will completely stop paying its due debts.

As soon as these three tricks of "heaven and earth return together" were used, the stock suddenly fell sharply, and the ruble exchange rate further accelerated its decline, with the ruble-dollar ratio plummeting to 17:1 to 22:1.

Because no one was buying, Maozi's stock market, bond market and foreign exchange market were temporarily suspended. Banks were unable to cope with residents' withdrawals to exchange for U.S. dollars, and the entire financial system and economic operations were almost paralyzed.

Although it paid a heavy price such as the sharp drop in the exchange rate and the freezing of capital flows, Maozi's default on debts still played its due role, even if the cost was the loss of credit for financing from the international market.

Li Yiwen was immediately stunned by what was reported on the TV news.

Mao Zi actually led the international hot money to die together? This is really cruel!

Now that the ruble has depreciated sharply again, the rubles that Soros has exchanged cannot be sold, and it is difficult to use them to hunt for bargains. This freeze made Soros stupid, and other international speculators who wanted to reap the benefits were also stupid. They were equivalent to being shut down and beaten.

Dog, no matter how much money you made before, if you can’t withdraw it, it means nothing!

You have to pay back the interest on the loan!

Lu Yiming laughed and patted Li Yiwen on the shoulder and said: "The overall situation has been decided. I will leave the next thing to you. I will go back in a few days."

Li Yiwen felt a little surprised and couldn't help but ask: "Are you planning to go back now? Don't you want to stay to see the end?"

This is like working so hard to place fireworks in an open space, but people leave before they can be lit.

Can you bear this?

Lu Yiming waved his hand disapprovingly: "Didn't I say that I'm actually not interested in money, so there's no need to see it until the end. The outcome has been decided, and whether I stay or not won't affect the final result. So why should I stay here?

I still have to study. After all, the make-up lessons are over, and I have to go back and review my lessons."

Ren Junle and others rushed to Lu Yiming's room in a swarm, with shock and disbelief on their faces.

Ren Junle's joke came true, and Da Maozi really perished with the international speculators!

Mao Zi chose to flip the table brazenly, international speculators lost their bottoms, and the winner was decided in advance! Future Capital can make a lot of money just from the Hang Seng Index futures market!

"Boss, your prediction is amazing."

Wei Liqun was so excited that his whole body was shaking. Financial wars are not just about money, but also intelligence. A piece of accurate information is often more important than money.

Now that Future Capital's victory has been determined, I finally don't have to go out to look for a job.

"Invincible this wave."

"Then wouldn't we have made a lot of money?"

Speaking of making money, Li Yiwen suddenly remembered this incident and shouted: "Yes, yes, yes, quickly calculate how much money we made."

Ren Junle had to remind: "We are sure to win, but how much we can win is still uncertain."

The delivery date is the 28th of this month, and there are still about ten days left. How many points the Hang Seng Index can rise to is still unknown.

However, this kind of win-win battle was too easy to fight. Ren Junle had to admit that the new young boss was indeed a little bit more powerful.

From this financial defense war alone, it is conservatively estimated that Capital will earn at least 2 billion in the future.

Especially those 10,000 gambling contracts, which may have been a reminder for Future Capital in the past, but now they have become "cash checks" that can be withdrawn at any time.

As for how much money can be written on these "checks", it depends on how long international hot money can struggle.

On August 18, U.S. stocks have rebounded sharply, and the Japanese yen has also begun to stabilize. Stock markets across Asia have rebounded across the board.

This day is the first trading day after the public holiday. The Hong Kong government retained its strength and the Hang Seng Index fluctuated within a narrow range. The market ended slightly down 14 points and closed at 7210 points.

On August 19, the Hong Kong Government's Exchange Fund continued to enter the market, taking large short positions. The index climbed 412 points and closed at 7622 points. The clarion call for counterattack was officially sounded.

After that, international speculators still refused to give up and counterattacked from time to time, but Lu Yiming no longer cared.

After Maozi flipped the table, international hot money losses reached US$33 billion. It can be said that the trump card was lost. No matter how hard he struggled, it was just a return to glory, which is not worth mentioning.

After that, the reports in Xiangjiang immediately changed their style and began to praise Lu Yiming crazily, saying that he would become the youngest billionaire in history!

Seventeen years old, self-made billionaire!

"This profit is not bad, it meets my expectations."

Lu Yiming had already packed his things early in the morning. At this time, he put on his backpack and said, "Let's go, go to the company first, arrange things and then I'll go back."

Ren Junle's eyes were full of energy, he stared straight at Lu Yiming, and asked with longing: "Mr. Lu, can I follow you in the future?"

Lu Yiming's series of operations, as well as the optimism and calmness he showed during this period, completely conquered Ren Junle.

"Hey...that's not necessary. I don't think the two of us are suitable for each other. We can't force things about relationships."

Ren Junle frowned slightly and said speechlessly: "Mr. Lu, what are you talking about? You mean, can I come to work at Future Capital?"

"Oh, that's okay. You have to ask Zheng Zhiguang, aren't you his little secretary?"

At this moment, the door to the room was pushed open with a loud noise.
