Rebirth: My 80s

Behind a shutter on the second floor of the bank, Li Jiankun looked through the gap at the short young man in the corner of the lobby on the first floor.

It is worth mentioning that Sun Zhenyi is only about 1.5 meters tall.

From his dejected look, Li Jiankun already understood what was going on, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up:

"Tell him I'm not here and ask him to come back another day."

Old Sun beside him nodded: "Okay."

Li Jiankun motioned for him to come closer.

After Old Sun leaned over to listen, Li Jiankun whispered in his ear for a while.

As Old Sun listened, he felt more and more that something was wrong. He didn't understand why the big boss valued this guy so much and went to great lengths to recruit him.

Let's be reasonable. With the identity, wealth and status of a big boss, is it difficult to recruit talents?

It is a fierce competition to keep countless high-level talents.

What is this little dwarf?

But, we dare not ask...

Old Sun thought about the sharp drop of the US dollar today, shook his head slightly, and threw all these nonsense out.

He thought that this boy must have some outstanding qualities.

Yes, definitely!

Not long after, Old Sun went downstairs and met Sun Zhenyi.

When he heard that the person was not here, Sun Zhenyi said, "Oh," and showed a surprised expression: "Today he is at the stock exchange, right?"

Even though he was there, it was normal not to meet him.

A capital tycoon like him would definitely not stay in the trading hall like him.

Old Sun waved his hand: "No, no, I went to visit Mount Fuji."

Sun Zhenyi opened his eyes wide in shock.

Today is an important day for him, and for that person as well. The difference is that he lost a lot of money, while that person made a fortune.

On a day like this, why not visit Mount Fuji?

Even if you go there early in the morning, you will probably rush back after hearing the news after the stock market opens.

Old Sun saw what he was thinking and said with a smile: "Do you think this short-selling of the US dollar is a big deal for our boss?

"No, no, it's just child's play.

"First of all, he is sure that he will succeed in short selling. So is it necessary to keep an eye on it?

"Secondly, a mere 500 million US dollars is only a fraction of our boss's current round of stock market investment."

Just...

The odds and ends...

Sun Zhenyi's eyes opened wide, his lips moved, and he was speechless for a long time.

Old Sun's eyes were filled with awe, with little stars twinkling in them. If he was pretending, he should be awarded an Oscar:

"Don't be fooled by our boss, who may seem a little unremarkable at first glance. After all, he is young and rich enough to rival a country. But when he gets down to business, he is not like that. He is a very serious and hardworking person. You have never seen such a person before."

He glanced at Sun Zhenyi:

"You kid, it's rare that our boss has shown some love for you, but you don't know how to seize the opportunity...

"Okay, let's go back first and come back another day."

Sun Zhenyi bowed and apologized, then asked: "Then when should I come?"

Old Sun: “I don’t know.”

Sun Zhenyi: “?”

Old Sun gave him a look and said, "What's the matter? Can you meet our boss whenever you want? I met him that day because he happened to be discussing something with me. You're lucky."

Sun Zhenyi smiled awkwardly and bent over: "Yes, yes, I will come a few more times and try my luck."

"Fortunately, you have some friendship with our boss. If he were here, he would probably meet you."

After saying this, Old Sun turned around and left without saying anything more.

Sun Zhenyi was in a daze for a long time in the trading hall that was about to close, with mixed feelings...

The continued plunge of the US dollar has not only caused great turmoil in Japan, but the entire world seems to have experienced a landslide and tsunami.

The economy is the top priority.

As the only universal currency in the world, a sudden and drastic devaluation without any reason would definitely not work.

The financial markets need an explanation, and the whole world needs an explanation.

After the relevant arrangements were completed, the five countries jointly intervened in the foreign exchange market, and induced international hot money to sell off the US dollar in a big way, and the general trend was set, someone finally stood up and spoke.

This morning, U.S. Treasury Secretary Baker and U.S. Institute for International Economics Director Friedrich Bergsten were interviewed by reporters.

Baker announced parts of the Plaza Accord to the world.

His original words were: “…Thanks to the people of the world for their trust in the U.S. dollar, but in fact, as the only universal currency in the world, the U.S. dollar is seriously overvalued, which has brought a series of very bad effects to us.

“For example, high-quality American goods lack export competitiveness, and the trade deficit is widening year by year.

“For example, the government budget deficit is rising year by year, and so on.

“We have to make some changes.

“We will reasonably adjust the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against major currencies and conduct an orderly depreciation.

"This move will not only benefit the American people and bring more business opportunities and jobs, but it will also be a great thing for many other countries - your money will be more valuable..."

Bergsten also made several verbal interventions while speaking into the microphone.

For example, he said:

"Oh no, no, beautiful reporter, this is not a short-term behavior. I can't tell you specifically how much the dollar will eventually depreciate. It depends on the free adjustment of the market. Even God can't predict it. I can only tell you: this is just the beginning..."

The whole world was in an uproar.

Affected by this, on the one hand, the selling of US dollars in the international financial market became more and more crazy, and the value of the US dollar plummeted.

On the other hand, the major currencies mentioned by Baker, such as the Japanese yen, have skyrocketed.

In the Japanese financial market, the new wealth that flowed in that day reached an all-time high, all of which were long transactions.

Baker's statement that "the money of many countries will become more valuable" may not necessarily mean many countries, but it at least includes Japan.

The Japanese people were enthusiastic and smelled the scent of getting rich quickly.

……

……

Ah!

Ho!

The president's office of Seibu Group seemed to have turned into a solid space. Endless regret blended into it, making the air seem as sticky as paste.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi sat behind the mahogany table, his face ashen, more terrifying than that of a dead person.

The depression in his heart could not be vented no matter what, so he made intermittent low and strange sounds from his mouth.

He has been like this since he received news of the Plaza Accord.

His office also became a place where strangers... no, no one dared to approach.

Not to mention Yoshiaki Tsutsumi himself, even the most ordinary small employee of the Seibu Group now understands what a stupid decision their group and their president made a few days ago.

It's simply...it can be described as a spendthrift.

The US dollar has depreciated sharply against major currencies and the Japanese yen has skyrocketed, which will bring about a series of chain reactions.
