Chapter 1261: Cut leeks repeatedly

The latest website: Then, Li Changheng began to explain the information that everyone had just seen.

The content of the data is not much, and there is only one core.

Faced with the record-high export deficit between the United States and the island countries, the Americans actually began to use the administration, legislation, and even coerce the island countries to sign certain agreements beneficial to the United States as early as the mid-1970s to suppress the island countries' exports. .

It is a pity that even if there is an effect in a short period of time, it will not take two or three years before the situation will return to the island country again and use the cost advantage to easily defeat the companies in the United States.

Even the semiconductor industry of the island country, in order to avoid the semiconductor agreement with the US, must release 20% of the market to US companies, and there are restrictions on dumping memory below $20 at a low price.

While transferring low-end manufacturing to South Korea, it was re-exported to the United States under the name of Korea Corporation.

While investing a lot of money in his own country, he began to compete with American companies in the high-end chip market.

The result is that the island country won again, not to mention, the market share of the 6th floor has soared to 80%, and even reached 90% at one point.

Intel, Texas Instruments, Fairchild and other companies almost went bankrupt.

Therefore, Intel had to officially give up the memory market since the 1980s, and put 90% of its energy and funds on CPU research and development.

Therefore, means of suppression and coercion are useless at all.

Li Changheng looked at it from the perspective of God, and with his own studies for so many years, it was easy to find that if he wanted to deal with the rising export rate of the island country, he had to use financial means to raise the exchange rate of the island country's currency to US dollars.

The reason is very simple. One of the magic weapons for island countries to win is research and development, and the other is cost.

In terms of R&D capabilities, island countries cannot compete with the United States at all.

But the main enemy of the United States at this time is the red polar bear, and it has to put most of its research and development capabilities in the field of high-end weapons and preface technology.

This has led to the fact that in the field of practical application, various private companies in the United States compete with the entire island country.

It can be said that the United States did not lose in a mess, and it is already powerful enough.

That's why the United States put pressure on one after another, but in the end, the island country could not be suppressed.

Since none of these methods work, artificially raise the exchange rate of the island country's currency.

If the currency of the island country is raised from about 240 to 120 to one dollar in a few years, the book wealth of the island people has indeed doubled.

But it will also double the real price of products produced in the island country.

In the past, the cost of producing a car in the island country was 240,000 island dollars, which is equal to one thousand dollars a car.

But after the exchange rate is raised, it will cost more than 1,000, or even 2,000 US dollars, which will immediately weaken the competitiveness of island country products in the United States.

After a little thought, everyone understood what Li Changheng meant, and the old foxes thought the same as Li Changheng, and they could take advantage of this time when the US dollars could be exchanged for more island currencies.

With the US dollar as a guarantee, the island country's currency was borrowed from the island country's bank.

Then use this money to invest in the stock market, real estate and other markets that are easy to speculate, while earning the difference in exchange rates, while earning the difference between the stock market and real estate speculation.

But Li Changheng's approach is even more wicked. With 3% or even 5% of deposit interest higher than the island nation's bank, a large number of islanders are attracted to Citi, Morgan Stanley, Boston First Citizen Bank and Dallas First Citizen Bank, which is owned by the Rudd family. deposit.

The bank took this money and bought a large number of office buildings and high-end residences in the prosperous areas of the island country.

And these high-quality industries are not only more likely to be priced high, but also easy to sell slowly.

Then focus on the financial circle, the business circle, or run from Tokyo to Osaka and other cities to hype again.

After a circle, not only can you make huge profits, but also attract more local capital from the island country and other hot money from overseas to join in, and together push up the real estate industry of the island country.

And the extra 5% interest paid is a drop in the bucket compared to what you can earn.

When the exchange rate rises, a large number of US dollars are exchanged for leaving the market, which can also cause a panic in the use of money caused by the shortage of US dollars in this country, and the exchange rate will be suppressed again.

And once the exchange rate drops, Wall Street will re-enter the country and continue to buy high-quality assets, which is equivalent to using the US dollar to harvest twice.

This method is what American capital uses on red polar bears. In the future, the United States will change it a little bit to adjust short-term interest rates, and artificially repeatedly absorb funds into the American capital market to harvest the world.

"I'll join."

Morgan agreed with Li Changheng's plan without hesitation. After thinking about it carefully, others quickly realized how much the influx of hot money would affect a country.

Not to mention that the United States has 70,000 or 80,000 troops stationed in the island countries, and it has sufficient strength and ability to protect the funds of the United States. It is not difficult to coerce the island countries to compromise even when necessary.

"Well, we've raised $2.5 billion each with Morgan Stanley, Citi, First Citizen and Dallas National at the core.

The 2.5 billion invested by Rockefeller and pension and retirement funds can only be handed over to Citi for unified control.

But the money was all deposited into the Dallas National Bank account.

Using this as a guarantee, the island country will loan its currency to the island country in batches to invest in the stock market and real estate.

After that, we increased the deposit exchange rate of the island currency together to absorb the island currency in the hands of the islanders. "

Rad-Elkins can't wait to jump up and kiss Li Changheng. Compared with other forces, the Texas interest complex is the weakest in the bank.

Even he is an alliance of three regional banks. Compared with the other three banks, even his younger brother is not qualified.

So, once united, of course, the biggest loser is Dallas National Bank.

But Li Changheng was more at ease with the bank because of this.

After a little thought, other people knew that if Li Changheng said that he would put the funds in Citi, others would definitely be unwilling and uneasy.

It can be placed in Dalmore~lightnovelpub.net~ Li Changheng will not agree.

As for putting it in Boston, Li Changheng is willing, but Morgan is even more worried.

No need to guess, once there is a problem, the forces in Boston will definitely unite with Li Changheng. For Dalmore, it is better to put it in Citi.

At least for the sake of reputation, Citigroup will not do some things and dare not do it.

Now put it at the National Bank of Dallas, and the handling fee for the exchange of 17.5 billion US dollars is enough to equal the bank's income for a whole year.

If you exchange it back and forth several times, plus the transaction costs in the stock market and real estate, not to mention hundreds of millions of dollars, one hundred million dollars can still be earned.

Andre and the others looked at Ladd enviously, full of resentment that this guy had lost his shit.

After Morgan, Lowell, and Lawrence nodded in agreement, Li Changheng smiled and said to the old Rockefeller, who had been silent.
