Li Guangyu is not very good at saying anything about this policy now, but Jefferson Swart in the investment department of First Citibank (Hong Kong) is very angry about this, and he has cooperated with all parties to suppress the Asian stock markets.
The market, as a result, John Major gave him such a blow, which directly bankrupted his plan.
The main listed group on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is a real estate company. Even if it is not a real estate company, the major shareholders behind it also have real estate industries.
Now, as soon as the government's nine measures announced by John Major are released, everyone with a discerning eye knows that the price of the property market in Hong Kong will rise rapidly, and these real estate companies have a lot of properties in their hands, which will directly drive the rise of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
If you choose to continue shipping to suppress the Xiangjiang stock market at this time, not only will your interests be damaged, but it will also have no effect. Shareholders and small and medium-sized investors are not stupid either. They know that even if the stock is temporarily suppressed by the market makers, as the market develops,
The company's market value will still rise back.
As the person in charge of the American consortium in the Hong Kong stock market this time, Jefferson Swart said to the people present: "Everyone, this John Major seems to be different from us. I don't believe he doesn't know.
The situation in the Asian stock market today, and the fact that he made such a move at such a time, is worthy of our attention."
When John Major came to take up a post in Xiangjiang, they had some operations behind him, hoping to create some chaos here and lay more minefields.
There are many things in this government's nine regulations that Swat appreciates very much. Once the government's nine regulations are implemented, the longer it takes, the more mines will be laid and the greater its power will be in the future.
It's just that this time John Major was not just planting a minefield, he also meant to defraud their American capital.
The person in charge of Asia of the Mellon Group spoke up and said: "Swat, you Citigroup has a lot of contact with this governor. It is said that Wilson Wei has made a lot of efforts to transfer you away. What is going on now? The other party is not that big with Wei Yixin.
The difference is, they are not very friendly to us either."
For a long time before World War II, the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets was the world's hegemon, and they could be found in any region. The two wars completely knocked it off the altar, and the United States relied on these two wars to rise to power.
The older generation of British people, especially the British aristocrats, have never been very friendly to them and the United States. If there is a chance, British people would definitely not mind stepping on them.
Especially now that the pressure from Eastern Europe on Western Europe is gradually weakening, Britain, France, and Germany have other ideas. Their European Community ties are getting closer and closer, and the establishment of the European Union has been put on the agenda. Once the European Union is established, the United States will definitely be a threat to them.
A huge threat.
During the De Gaulle era, France had always advocated an independent defense and foreign policy to get rid of the influence of the United States. Britain has never given up on restoring its past glory. West Germany is actively planning the reunification of the two Germanys, and its strength must not be underestimated.
In Asia, the Japanese economy has been advancing rapidly and is about to catch up with the United States. The economies of the Four Asian Tigers and mainland China have not been slow in recent years. In many industrial technologies, the United States has begun to lag behind other regions.
Although the Soviet Union's threat to them began to decrease, the threats and challenges to the United States in other regions were increasing.
Faced with the question from the head of the Asia Mellon Group, Swart fired back: "Our number one Citigroup has only had contact with Major a few times. It was not us who pushed him to the top. It was decided by the British senior management. Compared with Wei Yi,
According to the letter, the appointment of this governor is more in line with the interests of the British government. Do you really think that we can make such important decisions for Britain?"
If John Major had been promoted by Citigroup, the situation would not be like this. What worries Swat most now is how to deal with the current situation. The suppression cannot be continued, and other financial groups in the United States are still
Stock market selling continues across Asia.
Xiangjiang is currently one of the bellwethers of the Asian stock market. A huge increase here will inevitably lead to a rise in surrounding stock markets, which will bring a lot of trouble to American consortiums in other regions.
Moreover, Swat also knows that the Li Group will never remain indifferent. If they continue to smash the market at this time, they will only be wiped out by the Li Group. Retail investors and small and medium-sized investment companies will only take in at this time, and it is absolutely impossible to stand by them.
Let's do some smashing here.
In fact, his guess was not wrong. Li Guangyu was giving instructions to Sun Jianping, asking him to pay attention to the dynamics of the Xiangjiang stock market and take all the shares as long as someone smashed the market.
At this time, Li Guangyu had no time to pay attention to the nine government policies proposed by John Major. The most important thing now was to get over this crisis in Asia, and then he would slowly figure out how to solve this situation.
Li Guangyu is not afraid of the talent introduction strategy implemented by John Major. As long as he survives these years, there will be no land for land reclamation in Hong Kong. As for the housing prices in these years, Li Guangyu and his allies already have sufficient land reserves in their hands.
, I can barely cope with it, but if it really doesn’t work, I will buy a large area of low-rise buildings and push them to build high-rise buildings to increase the supply of housing.
At almost the same time, both Li Guangyu and Swat received calls from Japan. Li Guangyu's call came from Sumitomo Qiying.
On the phone, Sumitomo Qiying told Li Guangyu about the situation of the Japanese stock market in the morning, and hoped that Tianyu Investment could work with Sumitomo, Mitsui, Daiichi Quanye, Fujiwara, Ito and other forces to rescue the market in the afternoon and jointly resist the American consortium's manipulation.
Asian stock markets and financial disruption.
Li Guangyu felt a little cold after hearing Sumitomo Qiying's words. It seemed that Mitsubishi, Fuji, and Sanwa consortiums had no plans to rescue the market.
This also marks that Japan's major consortiums have parted ways. From now on, the Lee Consortium will compete with Mitsubishi and other consortiums in various markets.
Li Guangyu said aloud: "Mr. Sumitomo, look at this, it's almost time for lunch over there. I'll ask Zhao Wenhua to contact you. You all can sit together and discuss the following plan. I firmly believe that as long as we cooperate sincerely,
, we will definitely be able to repel the American consortium’s attack on us.”
Of course, Sumitomo Qiying knew that Zhao Wenhua, the former head of Xiangjiang Air Transport Group, had now taken over Qin Jiao's position as the person in charge of the Lee Foundation's affairs in Japan.
He had no objection to Li Guangyu's proposal, and said to Li Guangyu: "Mr. Li, I'd better contact Mr. Zhao, and we will communicate in detail about the situation of the Japanese stock market."
Li Guangyu's communication here was relatively cordial, but the call from the head of Asia of the California-based consortium from Tokyo was not so polite.
On the phone, they directly asked Swat what he was doing in Xiangjiang, and agreed to suppress the Asian stock market together. As a result, the stock market in Xiangjiang soared rapidly, and even their Japanese stock market was affected by this, and there was a small rebound.
Swart said: "This matter has nothing to do with our First Citigroup. The Xiangjiang government directly announced the nine government regulations, which is very beneficial to the Xiangjiang stock market. We are now in a dilemma. It is no longer possible to suppress Xiangjiang. I personally suggest that you
Don’t put too much hope in Hong Kong. This time the focus is still on Japan, and the four Asian tigers are just incidental.”
Listening to Swart's response, the head of the California consortium was very angry. It was like this last time, and it's like this again. First Citigroup has simply lost the face of their American consortium.
