Chapter 1973 Chaos (Part 2)

"Qi Shao, the Maldives can't stabilize!"

After the news from the United States came out, the Asian stock market was in turmoil. Qu Liang, the president and general manager of the Chengdu Branch of Citibank, called with joy.

In April, Xiao Qi discussed with Qu Liang and asked Citibank to help negotiate the sale of undeveloped islands in the Maldives.

Under Xiao Qi's instigation, Qu Liang found a lot of super rich people and twisted them together to negotiate with the Maldives government.

They don't buy well-developed islands, but only those uninhabited and undeveloped islands. The price is good, but the Maldives government immediately refused.

The Maldivians know that these islands are their lifeblood. If they are sold to others, they will gradually lose the foundation of their survival. Only by continuously developing these islands and vigorously developing tourism is the happiness of the Maldivian people. source.

But they are still too unintelligent. There is no problem in managing tourism, but they are completely at the mercy of others if they want to participate in financial transactions.

I thought that the US bonds of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were the most valuable, but I bought billions of US dollars of US bonds, but now I am in danger of not getting them back. This immediately made these Maldivians tremble with fear. What can I do.

Since last night, they have contacted Citibank and several other banks to see if there is a way to redeem it, even if they lose some money.

But Citibank told them very seriously that early redemption is impossible.

Because at this stage. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac can no longer stand the toss. It is impossible to redeem tens of billions of dollars in bonds, and the same cannot be said for billions of dollars in bonds. collapse. Couldn't find any more.

Moreover, the sudden collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is extremely detrimental to the U.S. government and the American people. Even if they are to go bankrupt, they must slowly go bankrupt and delist after the government takes over. It must not suddenly close down. Otherwise America will be hit hard.

so. At this point, the U.S. government is obviously cheating, but what can you do with them?

Just like how after World War II, he lied to everyone to store all the gold in the New York vault. The President of the United States swore that the price would remain the same, and you could exchange it at any time... As a result, he turned his face and refused to recognize anyone, and did not recognize the fixed gold exchange rate at all. up. Just bought thousands of tons of gold with US dollars like waste paper, what can you do with him?

Even the United Kingdom and France cannot take Zheng Mingyu from the United States, let alone the Maldives, a super small country like a flea. Their demands for early redemption are destined to be unsatisfied.

But the Maldives cannot live without this US bond as inventory. If people know that the Maldives has no money, the situation will be bad!

So, Citibank kindly reminded them, didn't there were so many super rich people wanting to buy your undeveloped islands some time ago? Just sell it to them, so that at least hundreds of millions of dollars can be brought back, and it can't be said that it will make up for the shortfall. That would at least give you a little more room in your hands.

Anyway, there are so many islands in the Maldives that can be developed, and more than 1,000 islands have sold 30 to 40 islands, and there is no harm at all!

Don't tell me, a group of people from the Maldives government are really tempted.

However, the conditions they set out are unbelievable.

First, the islands to sell are up to them, usually very remote. Very bad terrain.

The second is the price. For the circle they allocated, the smallest one costs 8 million US dollars, and the largest one costs 20 million US dollars.

The third is that even if these islands are bought by private individuals, they still have management authority in the future, which means they can still manage other people's things.

At that time, Qu Liang really wanted to express his condolences to them: Fuck you!

This is not called giving them charcoal in a timely manner, but it becomes the appearance of them taking advantage of the fire.

It's just buying an island. Is it necessary to be so harsh?

As a result, the negotiations were temporarily suspended, and Citigroup decided to ignore the people in the Maldives for the time being and continue to create a tense atmosphere for them.

If the people in Citigroup are really bad, they turned around and spread the news when they saw that the negotiation was unsuccessful, and everyone in Male knew it in a blink of an eye.

Let me explain here that there are really very few people in the Maldives, and 60% of them live on the slightly larger island of the capital Male, so as long as the people of Male know, then the rest of the big Everyone on the island knows about it.

Everyone was furious when they heard that the money they had worked so hard to earn from traveling had been squandered by the government so that they could not get any money back.

Tens of thousands of people took to the streets on Male Island immediately, started protests and demonstrations, blocked in front of the presidential palace, and asked the president to come out and kneel down to explain.

Then, the people from the other big islands, regardless of the fact that it was getting late, ran over in ships one by one, blocking the main road of Male'.

The president and officials were going to come out to explain, but when they saw such a scene, they were afraid that they would be trampled into flesh, so they hurriedly ordered the guards to guard the door tightly and not come out.

They didn't expect that the news was released by Citigroup, because they not only asked Citigroup for help, but also other banks, etc., and they thought it was an official who disclosed it.

At this point, Qu Liang remained silent for the time being.

He no longer actively contacts the government of the Maldives, as if he never mentioned the purchase of the island before.

However, when the Maldives are pushed to the limit, they will definitely think of Qu Liang.

At that time, the primary and secondary relationship will be reversed, and the initiative of the negotiation will be in Qu Liang's hands.

It was after the layout was completed that Qu Liang made this call.

Xiao Qi was the same as him, neither arrogant nor impatient, he praised Qu Liang a few words, and then hung up the phone.

If you want to buy good things, you must not be impatient or anxious, otherwise you will not buy the best ones, or the price will not reach the most suitable level.

After entering the financial crisis mode, there are too many things to buy and want to buy. This small island in the Maldives is just an appetizer, and it is not worth the excitement.

Well, maybe the wives will be more excited.

At present, Xiao Qi's greatest energy is still focused on the United States.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have gotten to this point, and obviously it's hard to get back.

Xiao Qi remembered very clearly that the US government will take over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac early next month, and Wall Street will immediately demand that the US government also accept the two messes of Merrill Lynch and Lehman Brothers.

The problem is that the U.S. government is not an idiot. I take over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. At any rate, I serve tens of millions of homebuyers and tens of millions of people who invest in U.S. bonds. But I take over the notorious Merrill Lynch And what is Lehman Brothers doing? Is it to clean up the mess for you after you get fat on Wall Street?

Stop dreaming!

The final decision of the U.S. government is to abandon Merrill Lynch and Lehman Brothers cleanly and step on the wounds of Wall Street.

Bush is very happy to do these things.

Anyway, Obama will be president next year. Why should I clear the way for him? Adding more chaos to him is in line with the purpose of the Republican Party!

Speaking of which, the Republican Party is not a thing. They suppressed Wall Street vigorously when they were on stage, but once it was the Democratic Party's turn to be in power, they colluded with Wall Street and kept putting pressure on Obama. shit stick.

The topic comes back to the present.

No matter how Americans fight among themselves, it has nothing to do with Xiao Qi.

What he cares about is the subprime debt financial derivatives he bought in the United States. Now that the official climax has begun, the income in the next six months will definitely be more than the previous year.

Xiao Qi had made tens of billions of dollars in profits before, and most of them had been invested in gold futures.

Unexpectedly, under Tong Wencong's operation, the profit of this subprime debt crisis is ridiculously high, and at least another 10 billion US dollars can be recorded in the next six months, which is much faster than his hard work in the industry.

No wonder so many people like to make money on financial products. This kind of costless business is easier than stealing money.

In addition, there are some companies' stocks in the hands of Merrill Lynch and Lehman Brothers, which are also things that Xiao Qi is determined to acquire.

For example, the giant Texas Instruments is controlled by Goldman Sachs, but Merrill Lynch and Lehman Brothers also own a lot of shares.

There is also the stock of Qualcomm, the world's most powerful chip giant in the future, which also holds a lot in the hands of several major investment banks.

There are also YAHOO stocks that Xiao Qi wants most, and these investment banks still hold some in their hands. Although there are not many, holding them in their hands while they are looting is also a kind of preparation in advance.

The only thing that Xiao Qi regrets is that the United States has strict restrictions on the involvement of high-tech technology. Many companies Xiao Qi cannot directly transfer back to China, and can only be placed in the North American laboratory of Mingxiang Holdings.

Of course, it is not completely impossible. The current era is already in the Internet era. Mingxiang Holdings North America Laboratory often holds online video conferences with Xiannv Laboratory, and there are many technical exchanges. Although the process is a bit tortuous, it can be slow anyway. Learn slowly, what we Chinese people are best at is learning.

Those who do technology are the same as those who do business. They are not afraid of hard work, but they are afraid that hard work is worthless.

And Xiao Qi directly linked their technical learning and innovation with money and honor rewards, and everyone worked hard, so it was naturally enough! (to be continued ~^~)
