Chapter 1042: 1 profit

Moreover, the shorter the negotiation time, and the negotiation is completed before each consortium actually enters the market, the smaller the loss of the consortium and the big capital will be.

Then in order to make up for the loss, this group of hyenas will inevitably try their best to find new profit points.

When oil prices fall and inflation slows, the consumer market and real estate market will become new targets for capital arbitrage.

Li Changheng's request is not much, just a hotter real estate market is enough to make subprime financial derivatives popular.

Then the market value of the real estate company he set up soared is a trivial matter. When he uses the money of the desert tyrants to invest in the U.S. housing market, countless real estate and capital will definitely want to kneel at his feet.

As a result, the housing market is booming, and subprime mortgage derivatives that combine premium loans and subprime mortgages are more likely to be accepted and even sought after by the market.

As the subprime mortgage derivatives packaged by various banks, the lead underwriter, Belford Investment Company, will inevitably usher in a period of skyrocketing market value.

That's right, it's a period of skyrocketing, not a wave of rising.

At that time, Li Changheng wanted to sell Belford's shares. Not only was there a lot of people who took over, but the price could rise a little bit on the basis of market valuation.

The second is Citi’s profit. It is absolutely easy to double. Once you buy 2.5% of Citi’s shares again, your total shares in Citi will reach 22%.

By that time, he owns more shares than all the shares of Citigroup’s second, third, and fourth shareholders combined.

As for the interest paid to the desert tyrants, it is simply pediatrics.

The third Benjamin-Arthur will definitely be excited and want to kiss him.

Personally appointing him as the negotiator, the result really suppressed the rising oil prices, allowing most ordinary people to reduce their daily expenses.

It also slowed down the inflation rate, stimulated a short period of recovery in the U.S. economy, and increased a lot of job opportunities.

This alone gave Benjamin a high probability of winning the election at the end of 1976.

Of course, the drop in oil prices must be short-lived.

Oil-producing countries all over the world are absolutely unwilling to see that it is impossible for oil prices to drop to 3 dollars again, or even below 10 dollars.

Announcing production cuts to the outside world is enough to keep oil prices above US$10. At the same time, the price is still large enough for oil companies. Small and medium-sized oil companies that have much higher costs and poor anti-risk capabilities will be annexed.

If conflicts with red polar bears or other small oil-producing countries are provoked again, oil prices will be able to rise back immediately.

Even the short-term economic recovery in the capital world and the increase in consumer confidence in the capital world will itself expand crude oil consumption and force oil prices to rise.

Moreover, Li Changheng believes that even if the red polar bear reacts slowly, it will definitely provoked trouble and disrupt the US economy.

As a result, oil prices skyrocketed again, and it was not his problem with Li Changheng.

Maybe ordinary people would still think that if he came to govern the United States, he would definitely be much better than Benjamin or other generals.

After all, in terms of how to make money, the United States probably cannot find a few people to compare with him.

Li Changheng, who accompanied Annie to the United States Film Studio, laughed subconsciously, thinking that his plan could do more than one thing in one fell swoop.

And his unconscious behavior immediately relieved the people of Lianmei.

It's a pity that Li Changheng didn't have the time to pay attention to the expressions of his subordinates at this time, and he was thinking about the fund operation plan handed over to Saudi Arabia the day before yesterday.

After he and Nasser met and talked in person last time, Saudi Arabia had actually compromised.

In addition to negotiating to obtain a large number of fairly advanced weapons and equipment, the pressure on desert countries in the past two years has been far greater than at any time.

F14 fighter jets dominate the desert, and the eight bombers sold by Boyin are sharp swords hanging over all countries with a radius of one thousand kilometers.

Had it not been for the Israelites to develop their own tanks instead of buying large quantities directly from the United States, the oil embargo might not drag on for a year and a half at all.

The oil embargo is indeed a great blow to the economies of capital countries, but for the desert countries that rely on oil as the driving force for economic growth, the loss of their main source of income is equivalent to harming one thousand enemies and eight hundred for themselves.

The royal family can still hold on, but the people below and the chiefs of the various tribes have no money, and the ghost knows what they will do.

In the real world, in 75 years, the king who proposed the oil embargo was assassinated by his nephew.

Li Changheng didn't care about it, after all, he couldn't tell the source of the information.

Even if he said it, people would doubt his motives.

But doing nothing will not work.

Just using Nasser as the negotiator will inevitably cause some people to be dissatisfied with him to remind him.

Easily allowed Nasser to strengthen his own guard force, and indirectly made Nasser's father unreasonably strengthened his guard level.

Now Li Changheng is in Los Angeles, just waiting for news.

So that in case of need, you can fly to countries near the desert faster than staying in New York, and then board the aircraft carrier traveling in the Red Sea.

If an assassination does occur, the negotiation process may be accelerated, or it may be directly interrupted.

But to be honest, as long as Nasser's father calms down ~lightnovelpub.net~, he will still compromise in the end.

Moreover, Li Changheng will wait for three days. Once three days have passed, if Nasser's father still resists, or makes a more aggressive move, Li Changheng will go to Yilang as soon as possible.

At this time, Iran can be said to be completely forced to join the oil ban by other countries in the desert area.

As long as the benefits are sufficient and the assassination occurs again, the probability of the Pahlavi dynasty's attitude softening is still very high.

Even Li Changheng believed that as long as he ventured to Yilang, not only Saudi Arabia would become nervous, but the red polar bears who were also in the Caspian Sea circle might become nervous.

Once the polar bear makes a move, all the royal families in the entire desert, as well as Yisulei, will be worried.

So as a last resort, Li Changheng didn't want to fly to Tehran because it was too close to the polar bear.

After visiting Lianmei Pictures' studio with Annie, Li Changheng didn't think it was any novelty. After all, no matter how well-built the studio was built in the 1970s, it couldn't even compare to a big city or any playground in the future.

But Annie was unexpectedly in a very good mood, and what made Li Changheng scratch her head was that Annie once again mentioned the filming of the two people's experience of meeting in Rome.

"My dear, if I drag it any longer, I will be almost 30. Do you think I can still act as 16 years old?"

Li Changheng suddenly rolled his eyes. He was 25 years old this year and Annie was 23 years old. Few people got married at this age.

However, although Annie didn't have any wrinkles on her face, her body was a lot plump, and she was a little bit unreasonable to act like a 16-year-old with that familiar style.

But the audience doesn't care about these, the sexier they are, the more they like it.

"Well, when this time is over, I will..."

Before Li Changheng finished speaking, Annie interrupted him and said, "You have said this three times."
