Chapter 375 Joking

Originally, after listening to Zhong Shi's logical and rigorous analysis, several people had a general understanding of the operation of international hot money, especially hedge funds, and thought in their hearts, the original tricks of the so-called international speculators and capital predators That's all.

  But soon, what Zhong Shi said next gave them a slap in the face, as if a basin of ice water had been poured on top of their heads, cooling them down from the top of their heads to the soles of their feet. Yes, even if you understand the other party's strategy, what can you do, the other party will use a huge amount of funds to smash you to death! Among other things, just throwing 20 billion US dollars in the stock market, I am afraid that Song Ling and others will stop immediately.

In fact, in their subconscious, they still think that international speculators are only targeting the foreign exchange market in Hong Kong, and the stock market is only affected, or that a very small number of investors are short-selling because of panic, and they do not realize that the focus of international speculators is on Hong Kong. The stock market, while the operation of the foreign exchange market is just a cover.

But even so, the consequences of panic in the stock market due to the attack on the Hong Kong dollar are not something they can bear. The total market value of the Hang Seng Index is currently around 3.5 trillion Hong Kong dollars, which is about 500 billion U.S. dollars, and the market value in circulation is Calculated by half, it is at least 250 billion US dollars. A 10% fluctuation means an increase or loss of 25 billion U.S. dollars. In the face of this situation, the little money they have on hand is simply not enough.

  How much money does international hot money have? Among other things, the well-known Quantum Fund alone has at least US$20 billion in funds, and there are countless other funds, banks, etc., and it is conservatively estimated that there are at least US$100 billion in hot money. If all these funds are used to hit the Hong Kong currency, I am afraid that no matter how much money the mainland can mobilize, it will be useless.

  Although these people are not too old, they are all people with clear eyebrows and quick thoughts. After experiencing the initial shock, and seeing Zhong Shi's still calm expression, they understand in their hearts.

"Zhong Sheng, what do you think we should do? Since you are very clear about the psychology and behavior of international speculators, you must have relevant countermeasures, right?" Song Ling rolled his eyes for a long time, and suddenly said this Come on.

   It has to be said that it is by no means accidental that Song Ling can become the "first brother" in this circle and be valued by higher-level people. Just to say that there is a person like Zhong Shi in the team of experts he hired, it shows that his vision is indeed unique.

  Zhong Shi pondered for a while, then said hesitantly: "There are indeed ways, and there are more than one. But these methods of mine all have certain risks. I just don't know what your original intention is?"

As soon as they heard that the other party really had a solution, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but after hearing Zhong Shi's subsequent words, their hearts were suspended again. They looked at each other with complicated expressions, and then turned their eyes all over again. Aim at Song Ling.

"What does 'our original intention' mean? Could you trouble Zhong Sheng to explain this in detail? To be honest, I don't quite understand what you just said. Could it be that our original intention is not to maintain Hong Kong's stability and prosperity?" See Several people looked at him, and Song Ling had no way out, so he bit the bullet and took Zhong Shi's words.

   It’s just that he still has some doubts in his heart. It stands to reason that Zhong Shi should not be clear about the purpose of this meeting, but the other party said such a remark, which obviously has other content.

Seeing doubts on the faces of several people, Zhong Shi smiled and said lightly: "Of course I know that you all want to maintain the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong. As the saying goes, 'Dance as you dance, horses as you run'. But what I want to say is, Do you want to face up to the difficulties in a critical moment and fight to the death with international speculators; or do you plan to take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to make a fortune. Of course, I am not maliciously speculating on your motives, but these two purposes There are different coping strategies, and the consequences are not the same, so you need to think about it and weigh the pros and cons of both."

"Since that's the case, then Zhong Sheng, don't be fooled. Let's talk about the coping strategies of these two plans first, so that we can discuss and discuss them. Don't worry, as long as it is conducive to the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong, we will definitely not wrinkle Frown. And everyone here has no selfishness, if anyone dares to violate party discipline and state laws, I, Song Ling, will be the first to disagree."

  Song Ling replied impatiently, and at the same time patted his chest fiercely a few times to show his determination and courage.

  After seeing Song Ling's statement, the others nodded their heads in agreement, all with righteous and selfless expressions.

"In fact, this is the case. The first plan to head-on with international hot money is very simple, that is, you buy when they sell, and, as before, hold up the Hang Seng Index by absorbing the selling in the market. The value of this strategy The advantage lies in your left, right and above, you will really see what you are doing, and know that you are not just eating in the dead. The disadvantage is that you may be against the entire market at that time, and the funds on hand are likely to be consumed quickly It’s empty, when that time comes, I’m afraid you’ll just be fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered.”

"The second strategy is more complicated, that is, you have to enter the market before the market rebounds, and prop up the entire market at the lowest cost. The advantage of this strategy is that you can make a considerable amount of profit during the rebound, and you can You score points in front of your leaders. The disadvantage is that you may offend a number of companies that need your timely assistance, of course, those state-owned companies listed in Hong Kong. In addition, it is difficult to grasp the timing of this rebound. Even if it is me, I don’t know when and when the international hot money will stop, so the risk of this strategy is far greater than the previous one.”

   After talking eloquently for a long time, Zhong Shi spread his hands and glanced at the crowd expressionlessly, "I'm going to smoke a cigarette, you guys discuss slowly."

  The excuse of smoking is naturally to leave room for them to discuss privately, because the issues they want to discuss next may not be suitable for Zhong Shi to participate too much, and he does not want to participate.

When Zhong Shi's figure disappeared outside the meeting room, Song Ling scratched his head, took a sip of a cup of tea, and said weakly: "Let's discuss it, this time it's a big matter, we all must unify our thinking , think in one place, and use energy in one place. I believe everyone knows that we only have about 6 billion US dollars in funds. The previous action turned a lot of money into stocks, and most of them have not been resolved. I can’t move. My opinion tends to be the second one. If we are caught again this time, I’m afraid even if the higher-ups don’t blame us, then those who have been offended by us will sue us for ‘dereliction of duty’ and install a ‘defeat’ for state-owned assets. 'significant loss'."

In September, when the first stage of the Asian currency crisis was intensifying, Zhugeguan’s vision was like a torch, realizing that international speculators were likely to attack Hong Kong, so they asked Chinese-funded institutions to pay close attention to Hong Kong’s stock market, and when necessary, “organically, timely and decisively” Absorbing the shares of major listed companies in Hong Kong, in essence, is to rescue the market. For this reason, the government has allocated at least US$9 billion in foreign exchange reserves.

However, when international speculators attacked Hong Kong in October, Song Ling and others actively entered the market from the very beginning, taking orders at a high level. As a result, the Hang Seng Index plummeted all the way, from the initial 30,000 points to below 10,000 points, causing them heavy losses , Up to now, many stocks in hand still have lost more than half. Fortunately, Yanjing added some funds, otherwise they would be struggling now.

"I don't think it's right!" As soon as Song Ling's words fell, Luo Zhifan immediately objected, "Actually, what Mr. Zhong said just now is nothing more than actively intervening in the field, and the other can be called standing still, or you can say It is to choose the opportunity to move. If we really want to stand still, the pressure we will bear is unimaginable, and we may be taken down soon. And he also made it very clear that even he himself would not be able to grasp the timing of the rebound. Not sure. If we do what he said, what is the difference from gambling? Instead of gambling, it is better to take the initiative and at least make a good impression on the higher-ups.”

"Not bad!" Another person named Lu Zhi also echoed, "Not to mention other companies, but we, Huaxin Pacific, have been viciously attacked by the market in the past few months, and there is no way to raise money in the market. Funds. And we are also a large state-owned enterprise, which can affect the Hang Seng Index to a certain extent. If we see a company like ours in crisis and don’t lend a helping hand, it will be hard to justify it!”

  The last one who has not made a statement is from the Baoli Group. His name is Wu Zheng. Baoli is an arms export company, which has been developing towards diversification in recent years, and has a great demand for funds. Naturally, Wu Zheng didn't quite agree with Song Ling's approach, but he also thought that Song Ling's statement was somewhat reasonable, and it was really difficult to choose between the two, so he persuaded: "Everyone, don't argue, can't we retreat? And secondly, is it possible to implement both? We must know that the money we have on hand is a huge sum when converted into Hong Kong dollars, and if the configuration is appropriate, we may really be able to take care of both.”

  After Zhong Shi’s almost threatening words before, several people were a little stubborn in their thinking, and they didn’t think of a workaround for a while. After Wu Zheng's reminder, several people's eyes lit up, and after looking at each other for a while, they began to discuss the possibility of combining the two methods.

   "Zhong Sheng, smoking is bad for your health, let's chew some gum."

   Just as Zhong Shi was puffing out the clouds, suddenly a sweet female voice rang in his ears. Zhong Shi turned his head and saw that it was Zhu Yiting, the hot female secretary, looking at him with a blushing face, holding a piece of chewing gum in her hand.

  Zhong Shi touched his nose in embarrassment, put out the cigarette, took the gum, and chewed a couple of casually. When he raised his head again, he found that the other party hadn't left, so he asked puzzledly, "Is there anything else?"

   "..." Seeing that the other party was so puzzled, Zhu Yiting said coquettishly, "Mr. Zhong, you haven't thanked me yet."

   Seeing that she was looking for trouble, Zhong Shi replied directly, "Do you want to sleep with me?"

Immediately, the smile froze on Zhu Yiting's face. She widened her eyes and looked at Zhong Shi repeatedly. Her eyes were full of unbelievable expressions. After a while, she saw that Zhong Shi's expression did not seem to be fake. She stood upright, her nose fluttered slightly for a long time, but in the end she couldn't hold it back, and let out a muffled "hum" in disdain, and then she turned and left angrily.

   "Hey hey hey..." Zhong Shi laughed unkindly behind her, "Beautiful girl, there is news of getting rich, I wonder if you need it? Hey, don't go, it's really a chance to get rich."

"You go to the street, go to hell, I don't want to serve you anymore!" Zhu Yiting roared in her heart, of course, the scorpion would never turn back, but walked a little faster on high heels, and soon disappeared In Zhongshi's line of sight.

   After a long time, Zhong Shi returned to the meeting room. Song Ling and the others had finished their discussion and were drinking tea leisurely. When they saw Zhong Shi come in, they stood up unanimously and cheerfully invited Zhong Shi back to the main seat. After sitting down, Song Ling said: "Zhong Sheng, we have reached a conclusion in our discussion, specifically..."

"Okay!" Zhong Shi immediately interrupted him, "I won't listen to your content. In short, I am only responsible for researching the market and delivering the analysis results to you at the right time. The rest is none of my business. Besides, Song Sheng, don't forget about our deal."

   "How could it be?" Song Ling began to pat his chest again, "As long as you can get through this time smoothly, I guarantee that your appointment will come down soon."

After Song Ling finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Shi's expression. Seeing that the other party nodded slightly, he felt relieved, and then remembered something, with a smile of "you understand" on his face, and said to Zhong Shi in a low voice. : "I just saw that Secretary Zhu is very interesting to you, how about it, do you want to develop?"

   "Can you persuade her to go to bed with me?" Zhong Shi's expression was a bit strange, "If that's the case, I might as well refuse. As the saying goes, 'the elders can't refuse', then I will be disrespectful."

"噗", "噗", "噗", the other three people who were drinking tea almost spit out the tea from their mouths at the same time. They were really surprised that Mr. Xiao Zhong was able to say such a thing openly. And by surprise.

  Song Ling didn't spit out the tea, but the suffocation was so uncomfortable that even his face turned purple. He turned his head and let out a heavy breath. After grinning his teeth for a long time, he turned his head again and said to Zhong Shi seriously: "I'm sorry, Zhong Sheng, I can't persuade you." Laughed out loud.

Although Zhu Yiting is his secretary in name, the idea of ​​"being a secretary if you have something to do, and a secretary if you have nothing to do" is not popular here. The crime of sexual harassment is very serious, and as a Chinese-funded organization in Hong Kong, if there is any scandal, it will be covered by the media. Song Ling didn't dare to take the risk of hype.

  Zhong Shi sighed in disappointment and said nothing more.
