Chapter Five Hundred and Fortieth Booty Dividing Conference
Time is entering the end of midsummer, and when September quietly arrives, the whole of Southeast Asia is trembling.
In fact, the development route of the financial crisis is also traceable. For a long time, countries such as Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia have signed a currency exchange treaty, and the currencies of various countries can be traded freely. If this treaty was not present, the financial crisis would not easily knock on the doors of these countries. I didn’t see Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and others. In addition to being too poor, the lack of hot money entering the channel is also an important reason.
Thailand's baht has long collapsed, Malaysia's ringgit has fallen, and the Singapore dollar has been severely damaged. This is not the end. Indonesia, the world's largest island country, is the last sacrifice of this gluttonous feast. After sacrificed the entire Southeast Asia, the last drop of blood in the Asian financial storm fell!
It was also in the headquarters of China Merchants Bank in Los Angeles, and it was still in the same conference room. From late June to early September, Zhou Shuo almost never left this room.
No one knows, and even Huamei Bank doesn’t know how much money he has made in just over two months.
As the person in charge of China's bank fund supervision, Tian Guodong knows more about what happened during this period than Huamei Bank.
After sweeping the Singapore rubber futures market, by the end of August, all the rubber short orders in Pang Zhou's hands had been cleared. The profit margin was of course incomparable to Soros's profit in Thailand, but it also reached 80%.
After crazily harvesting the long positions in the rubber market, tens of billions of dollars of short orders brought about at least $8 billion in profits. The 3 billion dollars invested in Thailand also received high returns, and by August, the 3 billion dollars had already become 9 billion dollars.
You should know that this money is not only from Thailand, but also from Thailand’s only $30 billion in foreign exchange reserves. In fact, it is not enough for financial giants to share. Through the foreshadowing in advance, although Zhou Shuo cut off a piece of meat worth billions of dollars in Thailand, that’s all.
This profit of tens of billions of dollars comes more from the Southeast Asian rubber market. Starting with the collapse of the Thai market, no natural rubber dealer expected that this financial storm would actually sweep across Southeast Asia.
Second, Malaysia and Indonesia, the third largest rubber exporter, did not escape this catastrophe, and the bears eventually won a great victory - long futures contracts such as Hirano Trading Company could not even close their positions in the end, and there was no one to take over in the market.
It should be noted that the financial crisis destroyed not only the financial and monetary systems of various countries. After the storm, the currencies of Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and other countries were inflated sharply, but the prices of industrial finished products rose sharply, and the prices of industrial raw materials depreciated more and more.
This is similar to the result of the capitalist economic crisis. Citizens in cities cannot afford to drink milk, while rural farmers have to pour milk into rivers. The destruction of the financial system directly led to rubber plantations rushing to sell their assets. Unfortunately, the prices of industrial raw materials have plummeted, and even rubber cutters can no longer afford to hire them. Where can rubber be sold at a higher price?
If not. How can Thailand’s only 30 billion foreign exchange reserves be filled with the appetite of Soros and others? For more benefits, it is necessary to wait for the financial system to collapse after the financial crisis and purchase assets from these countries at ultra-low prices. Similar resources, spot, land and bonds are the most profitable projects. However, if you want to make profits through these methods, the funds, energy, time and relationships that need to be invested are not owned by Zhou Shuo.
After returning the capital borrowed from Huamei Bank revolving mortgage, redeemed shares of Microsoft, Liuer Software and other companies, which were mortgaged to banks and other companies, and paid all taxes, procedures, interest and commissions, Zhou Shuo frowned rarely.
12.2 billion US dollars, this is a huge sum of money. This money is too much. He feels a bit hot and heavy. Making money is a craft, and spending money is an art.
This is just the first batch of profits. The more than 20 billion US dollars raised by Zhou Shuo was spent in Thailand and Singapore, and nearly 10 billion US dollars of funds were still thrown in Indonesia.
Zhou Shuo, it should be said that not only Zhou Shuo, many Chinese people hate and even hate this country. If it is not as far away from China, but is as close as Japan and South Korea, or even bordering - then it will definitely replace one of these three countries and become the top three countries that the Chinese hate the most.
The exchange rate of the Indonesian rupiah against the US dollar was 2361:1 before July. By the end of August, the exchange rate of the Indonesian rupiah had plummeted below 3100.
Logically speaking, the $10 billion thrown in has already made at least $2.6 billion in profits, so it should be over as soon as possible?
Haha, who is the president of Indonesia who belongs to Suharto, this dog**…
Zhou Shuo decided to keep the 10 billion US dollars in Indonesia until February next year. By then, the exchange rate of the Indonesian rupiah against the US dollar will be expanded to 15,000:1. Yes, it is 15,000 to one. For example, the exchange rate that has been hit hard today still fell by 75%.
By then, this money will probably have a revenue scale of nearly 50 billion US dollars...
This money is definitely not possible to withdraw all of it at once, but it doesn't matter. Zhou Shuo feels that he has enough patience to get them to pay off their debts.
In terms of temporary returns, there is no more than a dozen or dozens of times, which seems to be a bit embarrassing for the rebirth. But Zhou Shuo deeply understands that this is his limit.
First of all, he is not a specialist in finance, and he is very lucky to be able to achieve such results. Secondly, the funds in his hands are too large and too conspicuous, and he is not in the same circle as Soros. If he is not careful, it is not impossible for him to beat a rabbit and make a fortune.
Furthermore, if you accept it when you see it, this is his usual style. People who do not seek perfection can achieve perfection in the end. If you don’t even want to give up any profit, you may end up empty-handed. Be willing to give up, and only by giving up can you keep what you have already obtained.
"Master!"
At the headquarters of Huamei Bank, the door of the conference room where Zhou Shuo is located was suddenly pushed open. Pang Zhou looked a little thinner than two months ago. The general's belly had become faint, but instead he was wearing a decent suit, which was indescribable and neat and capable.
"Master, I miss you so much!" Pang Zhou strode over and hugged Zhou Shuo enthusiastically. He stayed in the United States for many years, and many of his behaviors have been influenced by Americans.
But from his excited expression, Zhou Shuo could still easily see that his hug was from the heart.
"You guy is losing weight!" Zhou Shuo gently pushed him away, looked up and down, and smiled with relief: "Yes, now it's much more handsome than when I first met you. How about you? Have you ever had a girlfriend? When will you prepare to get married?"
Although Zhou Shuo and Pang Zhou have not had many opportunities to meet each other for many years, they have many opportunities to communicate.
Many Pang Zhou’s acquisition cases in the United States were directly instructed by Zhou Shuo. Many times, the business planning cases proposed by Zhou Shuo also require two people to communicate and modify, and the acquisition opinions proposed by Pang Zhou also require Zhou Shuo to come to the fore...
Even if Zhou Shuo is in China, he has to spend at least an hour every two days to communicate with him. The Liuer Im records of the two chatted with each other are thousands of pages, and the cross-border phone calls they have made hundreds of hours. Not only is their relationship not distant due to distance, but instead fermenting more mellow and richer over time.
"Hey, there are actually some. But she is studying at Brother University and has returned to China in summer vacation in June." Pang Zhou said excitedly: "It just happened to be waiting for two days that she has finished her school affairs, so I will bring her to see you."
"Okay, I've been in the United States for so long and I've been so busy that I haven't even met Yu Qiong a few times. I should have more contact with you."
Zhou Shuo nodded thoughtfully and thought for a while, saying: "Let's do this, call the senior executives who are still in China in two days, and the same goes for Lao Shao and Yu Qiong. Let's go on vacation to Hawaii!"
"Okay!" Pang Zhou laughed and said, "I am not familiar with people from the Fanhan Group. This time I can learn more about it!"
Zhou Shuo has more and more subordinates, and gradually began to divide various factions. This is not about mountain heads, but is just a natural separation from their respective development contexts.
Taizu also said that there were no factions within the party, and there were all kinds of strange things, but Zhou Shuo did not intend to bring all the forces together.
Among them, the Panhan Group is naturally the largest force, and it can be said to be the largest force under Zhou Shuo. The second is the North American Party, Pang Zhou, Yu Qiong and Shao Shiming, who maintained the power of the American Liuer Group. Although there are not many people, the most money is the engine of Zhou Shuo's entire system.
Of course, there is also the new department with the oldest history. The new department is now seeking to list on the Hong Kong stock market and may gradually go further and further away from the Panhan Department in the future.
The rest is Huajing system. Liu Kan is now the general manager of Huajing Group, responsible for the Huajing wafer factory far away in Wuxi. Then there is BOE. Seeing the profits after this financial crisis, Zhou Shuo is just around the corner to fully grasp BOE again.
No matter how many there are, the Japanese branch, which is relatively independent, and Tang Jun is very well-managed as the president of the Japanese region.
In Zhou Shuo's plan, he even had to actively promote the formation of other factions. For example, in the future, Fanhan Group may purify its business direction and split out real estate, heavy industry, retail, culture and finance businesses to form a Dazhong system.
Chapter completed!
