Back to 1995

Chapter 495
There are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames. Just like the Titanic, which is considered a "miracle in the history of world industry" and known as "the unsinkable passenger ship", the nickname of Daewoo Group is called " The Unsinkable Aircraft Carrier", and it turns out...

Daewoo Group announced that it could not bear it, and after it fell, Han Bao, the second largest steel plant in Bangzi, declared bankruptcy. Sanmei Iron and Steel Group, one of the thirty largest consortiums in Bangzi, announced that it was unable to recover. Those who fell together included Jinro, Danong, Qingqiu and many other great companies.

In the first half of the year, these companies were clamoring to become one of the world's top [-] companies, but they stopped working as soon as the second half of the year started.

And Kia's slip and fall cast a shadow over the whole stick. The stock market, foreign exchange and other markets, which were about to close, plunged again.

In the blink of an eye, nearly ten of the more than 30 chaebols and giant companies in Bangzi fell down, and the remaining Samsung, Hyundai, and LG began to tremble. Their debts were no lower than Daewoo!

The vigorous gold movement also failed. Just like Siam, hopeless people started a bank run, and exchanged the bills that were almost waste paper in their hands for US dollars. The price of gold at the price of sticks suddenly , From the lowest point in 18 years, it soared to the highest point, and the price of gold could soar to more than 10% in an hour.

Similarly, PayPal, which claims to be able to exchange foreign currency, entered Bangzi and attracted more than 30 users in one day!

And just at this time, after borrowing a circle of feathers and returning, under the kind care of the suzerain country, they failed to borrow Meidao. Several major banks had to announce that the Meidao and gold in Bangzi's hands had been sold out. , there are only less than seven days before the next foreign debt repayment date. By then, Bangzi will need to repay more than 200 billion US dollars. If it is overdue, it will not be a matter of bankruptcy of several companies, but the day when the entire Bangzi goes bankrupt...

The board has reached this point, and now it is waiting for the fish to take the bait.

Goldman Sachs, Citigroup and other Wall Street institutions, in the office building built in Tokyo, people are constantly coming in and out, reporting to Paulson, the income of Goldman Sachs this time, the Quantum Fund of Soros alone, has now earned more than 20 billion dollars It is conceivable that Goldman Sachs and other institutions make a lot of money.

But Paulson is already a little numb to these figures. Anyway, this year's Goldman Sachs board of directors can get more than twice the dividend compared to last year. Paulson's dividend and bonus will also reach astronomical figures!

Pulling off his tie a little irritably, Paulson asked Sidney Weinberg on the side, "Is there any news from Bangzi?"

For Paulson, shorting sticks was only the first step, or even the beginning. After so much preparation, how could it be possible to earn some extra money and leave?
Paulson and other Wall Street institutions are really focusing on the fat meat of Bangzi, such as banks, securities, and chaebol giants. Only after mastering these, there is no need to do such a thing in the future. Bangzi will be for Goldman Sachs in the future Working on Wall Street is Paulson's scheme with Wall Street.

Sidney Weinberg, the director of Goldman Sachs, shook his head. He also said with some surprise, "There is a voice from the Bangzi side to seek support from the Federal Monetary Fund, but there is no word from the Bangzi financial department. information……"

At this time, an assistant came in, turned on the TV, and tuned to Bangzi's Seoul TV station. At this time, he saw a spokesperson representing Bangzi's financial department, walked to the front of the stage, and began to hold a press conference.

Paulson couldn't understand the stick language, but looking at the TV station's spokesperson, he showed a sad and indignant expression, waving his arms from time to time with excitement, and it didn't look like a sign of admitting defeat. Paulson could also guess that at the press conference What is said.

"The stick claims that they will not bow to others, they can solve these troubles, and besides... they will not ask for help from the Federal Monetary Fund!"

The assistant translated the content of the press conference to Paulson. After Paulson heard it, he just sneered.

The game he set up for Bangzi has only one way to go, either die or go to the Federal Monetary Fund to borrow money. There is no third way. Right now, the people on Bangzi's side are just stubborn, or they still want to keep For face, let the people from the Federal Monetary Fund take the initiative to come to the door, but they just want to bargain and don't want to lose so badly.

Paulson pulled off his tie and threw his coat aside. If Bangzi wanted to play, he would do a few tricks with Bangzi to see whether the prey was cunning or he, the hunter, was more skilled!
Glancing at the president of Citibank sitting on the side, Paulson said, "Contact Robert Robinson and let him continue to put pressure on him, so that Bangzi must repay the debt on schedule, without delay for a day!"

Now America's local side is absolutely cooperating with Paulson's side, and hundreds of billions of dollars have flowed over. If it loses, America's side will be hurt.

Robert Robinson, the federal treasurer, is one of their own. They let Robert Robinson act as a white face, constantly exerting pressure on the stick, and forcing the stick to submit.

Turning his head, Paulson turned to his assistant and said, "Let Soros and Tiger Fund continue to do it!"

Paulson had to keep putting pressure on Bangzi, Soros was attacking from the front, and Robert Robinson on behalf of America was putting pressure from behind, attacking inside and outside, making Bangzi bow his head and submit.

Also in Tokyo, in another mansion, compared to the panic-stricken investors in Tokyo, the atmosphere here is warm, with bursts of laughter from time to time.

"Siam, but you, Soros, are listed as the most unpopular person!"

Julian, the president of the Tiger Fund, held a glass of wine and said to Soros, who had a serious face on his hooked nose, but rarely smiled today.

Today's gathering is a celebration feast, led by Quantum Fund, Tiger Fund, Omega Fund, LTCM, and other hedge funds. Castle Hedge Fund, which has participated in short double-click before, was also present.

It’s just that compared to characters like Soros and Julian, Ken Griffin can only be regarded as a rising star. He only has the role of listening on the sidelines and has no right to speak. However, with this wave, the Castle Fund has recovered a lot. Let Ken Griffin hand over a not-so-great but passable bill to this year's castle hedge fund investor.

Hearing Julian's ridicule, Soros smiled lightly, "I didn't create bubbles, I just detonated these bubbles and told them the harm of these bubbles, so that these bubbles will not cause greater harm!"

Hearing this rationale, all the hedge fund managers gathered around laughed. Soros did tell Siam about the dangers of these bubbles, but the price was too high. The wealth was swept away, and in Siam alone, the Quantum Fund could make nearly billions of dollars in income.

Now Siam is screaming for Soros, and he can't wait to get rid of it quickly. If he dares to appear in Siam, the Siamese who have always been good-tempered will probably throw rotten eggs at him, or even come to him. one shot.

"Guys, it is not the final victory yet. Our journey is not over yet. There is another bubble waiting for us to burst!"

Soros held his wine glass high and said to the hedge fund managers present that it would be difficult to take the lead when the team gets bigger. Now there are probably thousands of hedge funds, speculators, and various investment institutions gathered in Southeast Asia. Well, Soros needs to let these people charge with the Quantum Fund.

If they all go their own way, then these hedge funds are a mess and will be broken one by one. The Quantum Fund alone cannot challenge a country alone. He needs these hedge funds to act with him.

For Soros' call, the people present naturally responded with a bang. Now Soros is the leading brother, and there is meat to follow him. In Siam, these hedge funds have more or less eaten a piece of meat. Therefore, his head is like a saddle, and only after a big somersault will these hedge funds collapse and disperse.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, standing behind Soros, also this time, Zhuken Miller, the general manager of Quantum Fund's operations in Southeast Asia, said to Soros at this time, "This time, Quantum Fund is here in Southeast Asia." , and met some special "peers"!"

Hearing Zhukenmiller's words, Soros, who was in a state of excitement, didn't pay too much attention to it. The "comrades" who came to Southeast Asia this time were simply not too many, and it was impossible for him to pay attention to them all.

"Oh?" Soros smiled a little, "Who is it?"

Zhu Kenmiller shook his head, "I'm not sure, but what is certain is that this "peer" is one of the first companies to come to Southeast Asia!"

This remark contains a lot of information, which means that the other party has long known that Soros and Wall Street are going to do something in Southeast Asia. This makes Soros have to ponder for a moment. Soros does not object. It is another matter to know every move of the Quantum Fund, and there is no guarantee that the Quantum Fund will not suddenly set something up!
"Can you find out who the other party is from?" Soros asked Zhu Kenmiller.

"Not sure, but," Zukenmiller hesitated, and said, "What is certain is that the other party's funds come from America, and it is related to... North American Global Investment Foundation!"

Hearing this, Ken Griffin's eyes suddenly lit up standing in the crowd. The news was beyond his expectation, and Ken Griffin was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Song Yang would also mention Come here, and it's still quiet, and it's already started in advance.

Hearing the name of the North American Global Investment Foundation, Soros was slightly surprised. He was sure that he had never dealt with the North American Global Investment Foundation.

"Bruno Song?" After hearing that this investment foundation was related to Song Yang, Soros showed a little interest. His Quantum Fund does not play the Internet, but he also listened to Song Yang's name. passed.
