Chapter two hundred and seventy third Weng son-in-law conspiracy
Chu Yunsong was so busy digesting the news that Ye Kai brought to him that he didn't even notice that the cigarette was almost burning his fingers.
Russia plans to reform its currency system. This is not an ordinary news. It is likely to involve all aspects and may even affect some domestic personnel.
In the recent stage, border trade between Russia and the Republic has been carried out more frequently, but private transactions are rarely settled in rubles. They are usually settled in US dollars or barter. The common people are not fools. They know that the Soviet Union has disintegrated and rubles are used.
I was afraid that it would no longer be safe, so I would rather exchange it for something that looked more substantial than the banknotes that were not safe but easy to carry.
Of course, some people prefer to trade Russian furs and military supplies. The most memorable thing is that Russia’s high-power telescopes have appeared in China for a long time. At that time, in almost all cities,
The streets are full of people with several military binoculars hanging around their necks selling them along the street.
There are many similar situations. Military supplies are naturally more popular with domestic people and easier to sell, but things like furs are of higher value and are generally sold at the border, rarely flowing into the mainland.
But for large-scale transactions, bartering is more difficult. You can't bring a few truckloads of military telescopes back to sell them, right? Whether you can sell them is a question, at least there will be many problems in withdrawing funds.
Big problem.
In such transactions, the problem of using rubles cannot be avoided.
Although domestic relations with the former Soviet Union have gradually normalized and formal diplomatic relations have been established with Russia, cooperation in currency and finance has just begun. Everyone is also very concerned about what will happen to the ruble. Chu Yunsong, as a domestic
Countless economists and financiers also had their own opinions on this issue, but he did not expect that Ye Kai would even have more ideas about this and dare to make inferences.
"Do you think the ruble will continue to depreciate significantly? To what extent will it depreciate?" Chu Yunsong asked Ye Kai after thinking for a long time.
The secretary was very surprised after hearing this. Mr. Chu spoke like this. He obviously agreed with Ye Kai's statement. It was just that the two people could not reach an agreement on the specific situation. At this time, Mr. Chu just wanted to confirm. Ye Kai's
Inference. Whether it is consistent with his own thoughts.
In other words, Ye Kai's judgment on the ruble was approved by President Chu.
What is the situation of this person, and why is he so good at economics? The secretary was thinking about it, and couldn't help but get distracted.
"Jin Li, go and get last year's ruble market research data. I will use it in half an hour." Before Ye Kai answered the question, Chu Yunsong suddenly said to his female secretary.
"Yes, Mr. Chu." The female secretary stood up, responded, and then left the office.
She knew very well in her heart that this was Mr. Chu's private communication with Ye Kai. There would definitely be no idlers waiting for such an occasion, so she had to find something to do.
The market research information about rubles is actually in the data room next to the office. It can be turned out in less than two minutes. Mr. Chu said that he would set aside half an hour to talk to Ye Kai, so she had no choice but to stay next door.
It's been half an hour.
"Okay, let's talk about it now." Chu Yunsong waved his hand to Ye Kai.
Ye Kai looked at Chu Yunsong waving his hands and felt that he was somewhat similar to Mr. Chu's demeanor. In fact, Chu Yunsong's influence in the domestic economic circle is indeed very great. Although he is relatively low-key, he is more influential than a hundred mainstream economists combined.
The influence he can exert is not as great as that of one person.
Those people are just talking nonsense in the media and earning two hard-earned money. How can they be so powerful as Chu Yunsong's secret actions in determining the economic direction of the entire country?
This is totally not something that people of the same level can do, and there is no comparison at all.
"To put it bluntly, the so-called currency reform is just to loot money from people's pockets." Ye Kai said casually, "This time, the exchange rate of the ruble to the US dollar, the first-phase target, should fall below one to one hundred, and the second-phase target,
It will fall below one to two thousand, and the ultimate goal should be below one to one hundred thousand!”
"One to one hundred thousand?!" Chu Yunsong said a little strangely after hearing this, "Do you really think that Russia's economy will completely collapse?!"
"Crash is necessary." Ye Kai replied.
"Why?" Chu Yunsong suppressed his emotions and asked the reason.
What is the reason that makes Ye Kai think that Russia's economy will completely collapse?
At least under the current circumstances, although Russia's economy is in some difficulties, it is not at the end of its rope. There are some economic difficulties, but under the operation of the new government and the guidance of American economic experts, the Russians'
There is still confidence, and Russian President Yeltsin seems to be able to give people confidence in victory. No one thinks that Russia's economy will collapse.
As for the ruble's exchange rate falling to one to two against the U.S. dollar, it is only considered to be the impact of the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The blame for this should be attributed to Soviet President Gorbachev, not Russian President Yeltsin.
"You only need to look at who Russian President Yeltsin's economic adviser is, and you will understand that Russia's economy will definitely collapse." Ye Kai pointedly pointed out.
Chu Yunsong picked up the tea cup and his expression became a little more focused, obviously considering what Ye Kai said.
Nowadays, Russians are a little too superstitious about Western experts. Because of Yeltsin’s decision to fully westernize, Russian President Yeltsin’s presidential decrees need to be modified by Jeffrey Sachs, an American economist who is called the “White House’s secret weapon.”
The legal provisions and government administrative regulations of the Russian National Duma need to be formulated personally by American legal expert Jonathan Hay, another one of Harvard University's "two mentors", Lawrence Summers of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
, is responsible for directly guiding the Russian Minister of Finance on how to formulate Russia’s fiscal and financial policies.
"It can be said that Russia's political economy is in the hands of Americans. Do you think this is normal?" Ye Kai asked rhetorically.
This must be abnormal! Chu Yunsong thought in his heart.
Tai'a reversed the situation and put the fate of his country in the hands of others. What good results could there be?
What is the United States? The biggest enemy of the former Soviet Union, the biggest enemy bent on subverting the Soviet political system! After so many years of hostility, the Americans are the ones who know the strength of the entire former Soviet Union best!
Can Americans sleep well if they watch Russia, the first heir to the former Soviet Union, recover from the economic crisis and become a prosperous capitalist country? Definitely not!
Even the long-term ally of the United States, the British, has been played by the Americans several times. As for Japan, its new little brother after World War II, it was also tortured by the Americans' methods, causing vomiting and diarrhea, and its vitality was severely damaged.
Russian President Yeltsin actually left the fate of Russia in the hands of the Americans. I wonder if his IQ is even fifty?! Could it be that the whole of Russia can no longer find a suitable leader?
"Those who are not of my race must have different minds!" Ye Kai said, "The ancients made it very clear, but modern people have completely forgotten it. This is obviously asking for trouble!"
"Okay, I trust your judgment, but if you come to me to open a bank in Russia, I'm afraid it won't be possible, at least not in the short term." Chu Yunsong said to Ye Kai.
"In this case, I have to give up this piece of fat to the Americans. I'm not willing to accept it..." Ye Kai also knows that if the domestic economic system is a bit rigid, it may not be easy to open a bank abroad.
operate.
In fact, he hopes to use Chu Yunsong's personal relationship to open a bank in Russia, even if it is a curve operation, because once he enters the Russian financial system, many things will be much easier to operate.
For your own funds, you will gain very considerable profits in the Russian economic collapse.
"Although the bank cannot open, if you think the ruble will depreciate significantly, I can still give you a clear path..." Chu Yunsong had some ideas at this time, crossed his legs, and smiled at Ye
Kai said.
"Minglu?!" Ye Kai's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this.
You know, Chu Yunsong is an economist and a financial expert. He is much better at these methods of making money than Ye Kai, a third-generation red man who only knows some superficial methods through hearsay.
Ye Kai's advantage lies in his foresight, while Chu Yunsong's advantage lies in his familiarity with economic operating techniques and his understanding of how to take advantage of the general trend.
However, after Chu Yunsong said this, he started to tremble, lay down behind the sofa, and raised his legs, looking like an uncle.
When Ye Kai saw him, he didn't know that his father-in-law was cheating. He smiled and took out the cigarette and put it into Chu Yunsong's hand. Then he clicked the lighter and lit it for Chu Yunsong.
Got a cigarette.
Chu Yunsong took a puff of cigarette, then blew out two round smoke rings, exhaled comfortably, and then nodded with satisfaction. What he wanted was Ye Kai's low-key service, just an attitude.
Otherwise, where can I use my father-in-law's authority?
Ye Kai understood the thoughts of his prospective father-in-law, and of course he had to try his best to cooperate. Besides, this was not a shameful thing. After all, the only daughter he had raised for twenty years and was rich and beautiful was going to be his wife.
"Actually, opening a bank is not necessarily the only way to penetrate the Russian economy better and faster. There are still many ways. All roads lead to Rome." Chu Yunsong said to Ye Kai slowly, "Sometimes,
The method should be more roundabout, so that it is easier to obtain practical benefits without being resented by others."
"I would like to hear the teachings of the old master." Ye Kai immediately said with a smile...
