"Xiaohao? Why are you here? Is there anything wrong?" Zeng Yingquan and Ren Zhikang were discussing countermeasures for the precarious situation outside, and they, the real high-level members of Hong Kong's economic circles, were having a meeting.
Of course, the outside is heavily guarded, and Zhou Hao still needs to get his permission before the guards will let him in.
But Zeng Yingquan's first reaction when he saw Zhou Hao was that Zhou Hao had caused some trouble again.
When Zhou Hao heard that the first sentence Zeng Yingquan said to him was actually this sentence, he also had a helpless smile on his face. It was not a good thing for him to look for Zeng Yingquan almost every time.
He shrugged his shoulders, looked around the spacious conference room, and saw these leaders who dominate Hong Kong's macroeconomics.
The Financial Secretary, the Monetary Authority, and the Financial Services Bureau are the departments in charge of the financial economy in Hong Kong, while HSBC, Hang Seng, Standard Chartered, and Bank of China are the four most powerful banks in Hong Kong, holding most of the liquidity funds and credit funds in Hong Kong.
The combination of these departments constitutes the most important structure of Hong Kong's financial economy. As for other enterprises or listed companies, they all develop from branches attached to this structure.
Zeng Yingquan and Zhou Hao were old acquaintances, but Ren Zhikang, Xu Shiren and the presidents and directors of the four major banks did not know this young boy.
They were also puzzled by the fact that Zeng Yingquan let others come in to interrupt their meeting at such a critical moment, so they all cast puzzled looks at Zhou Hao.
"Uh, everyone, this is Zhou Hao, one of my nephews." Zeng Yingquan introduced Zhou Hao to everyone with a wry smile: "Maybe some of you have heard of his name, hehe, he is that Zhou Hao."
In addition to Ren Zhikang, director of the Monetary Authority, Xu Shiren, director of the Bureau of Financial Affairs, and the presidents and directors of the four major banks all looked at Zhou Hao in surprise. After all, he was in the top circle of Hong Kong.
Zhou Hao's name is really not unknown, the reason lies in the He Xu family.
Especially that time at He Hongsen's birthday banquet, the scene where Zhou Hao and He Xueyun attended together was seen by many invited guests, and now He Xueyun happened to be by Zhou Hao's side.
Although they don't know Zhou Hao's background, they all know to some extent that Zhou Hao is the person who caused the turmoil between the He family and the Xu family. The protagonist of He Xueyun's extramarital affairs, which has been hyped up by the media, is probably the Zeng Yingquan in front of him. nephew.
"Hello, everyone." Seeing the curious or haughty gazes of these people at the top of the economic field, Zhou Hao only greeted them with a calm smile.
"Xiaohao, you know what happened in the Hong Kong market today, right?" Zeng Yingquan said solemnly: "We are discussing countermeasures because of this, because the stock market has fallen by more than 100 points, and the situation is very serious."
Zeng Yingquan's subtext is that he is now
Now I don't have the time and energy to deal with the trouble Zhou Hao caused.
Zhou Hao really didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but it was also his fault that he had provoked too much right and wrong. He only heard him say: "Uncle Quan, I came here for today's matter."
"Oh?" Zeng Yingquan felt strange, because even he only knew that Zhou Hao was closely related to the "Polaris" and "Tianhe" in China.
It can also decide the important decisions of ATV, but they don't know that Zhou Hao has a "Galaxy" that is deeply hidden.
Zhou Hao was also polite, and sat down at the bottom seat opposite Zeng Yingquan, saying, "The international speculative group headed by Soros' Quantum Fund and Julian's Tiger Fund has probably sold tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars since this morning. Bar."
"Huh?" This time, not only Zeng Yingquan, but even Ren Zhikang, Xu Shiren and the people from the four major banks looked at Zhou Hao in surprise.
Because of these data, there are still news from the outside. Even for the top ten consortia in Hong Kong, most of the information they get is still at the figure of 5 billion.
The international speculative group sold nearly 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, but they still responded to the data they had just obtained, and deliberately blocked the news in order to suppress the panic in the market, and it would take at least half an hour before it was released.
But Zhou Hao's intelligence was able to keep pace with them, and just because he knew that there were Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund in the opponent's camp, his power in the financial market cannot be underestimated.
Zeng Yingquan was a little stunned: "Xiaohao, how did you know this news?"
"The news channels are similar to yours." Zhou Hao said, "And now is not the time to worry about it, what I want to know is what are you going to do?
After all, the other party's selling action has not shown signs of slowing down or stopping. In my estimation, just today, they will sell 20 billion Hong Kong dollars. "
The expression on Zeng Yingquan's face was somewhat responsible. Now they all knew that the opponent's attack this time was obviously no longer a test, but a real war. But after all, this was a matter related to the entire Hong Kong economy, and it was not something that could be acted rashly based on guesswork.
Furthermore, if Quantum Fund and Tiger Fund really want to go to war against Hong Kong, the funds they have raised must be enormous.
Even Zeng Yingquan is not sure whether Hong Kong can or is ready to deal with this battle based on Hong Kong's economic strength.
Ren Zhikang said: "George Soros and Julian Robertson should just want to fish in troubled waters in our Hong Kong market to make a fortune as before. As long as we increase their speculative costs, they will naturally retreat. that's it.
We intend to use interbank interest rates and raise interest rates to fight against
They, I believe they will retreat soon. "
But Zhou Hao shook his head: "This trick is no longer
It worked, because they didn't mess up and leave this time, but they really wanted to bring Hong Kong's economy down.
So, no matter how you raise the interest rate, they will not back down, and they even hope that you will put in more effort to raise the interest rate. "
Zhou Hao thought to himself, no wonder people outside asked the director of the financial management bureau to do "any trick". Facing Soros's offensive, he really only used the trick of raising interest rates.
Although Ren Zhikang is not the kind of person who listens and believes, but he has been in the top position of the financial management bureau for a long time. Which of the tycoons and rich people treats him with respect and courtesy, and why has he ever tried to let such a young boy Oppose your opinion in public.
The look on his face sank immediately, and he said lightly: "We have no way to be sure whether Soros and the others are really going to war against Hong Kong, so how can you be sure?
What if not? Who will bear the losses caused by this? "
"Even if the other party is really just making a fortune as you said, the side effects of interest rates and raising interest rates are too great. I think you all know how much the impact of this measure on the stock market and foreign exchange market is."
Zhou Hao said: "Besides, if they like it, they come to Hong Kong to grab it once. Don't you know how Hong Kong's status will be affected in the international market?"
Xu Shiren next to Ren Zhikang picked up his lips and said with a smile: "Little friend, I think you are also studying economics. Although the theory of economics is very important, different measures must be used in different situations.
Director Ren has been in charge of the management work since the establishment of the HKMA. Until now, his experience is very rich, and the opinions he put forward are also more suitable solutions for the current situation.
If you don't understand the situation, the decision you make is very irrational and irresponsible. "
Zhou Hao squinted his eyes at Xu Shiren, the director of the Financial Affairs Bureau. Although Xu Shiren smiled kindly and looked like a kind elder, his words were hidden in the dark. In fact, he was secretly scolding Zhou Hao for ignoring the situation without knowing the situation. Irrational and irresponsible.
He Xueyun frowned. These senior officials obviously looked down on Zhou Hao, who was still young. When he was about to speak to defend Zhou Hao, he saw Zhou Hao raised his hand, and then swallowed back the words that came to his lips. Xu Shiren's impression was much worse.
"Xiaohao, based on what you've seen, what do you think should be done?"
Zeng Yingquan ignored Ren Zhikang's cynicism towards Zhou Hao, and looked at Zhou Hao seriously, because he knew that Zhou Hao's abilities and talents were by no means as simple as they appeared on the surface.
Zhou Hao smiled slightly: "It's actually very simple, we'll take as much as they sell."
Speaking of this, he looked at the people from the four major banks and said slowly: "Before, your four major banks lent money to the other party.
How many Hong Kong dollars, I believe you also know it.
Although that is also a normal financial behavior, once the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate and interest rate fluctuate, how much loss will you suffer? "
Hearing Zhou Hao's words, the faces of the presidents or directors of those banks changed, because Soros and the others had to lend a large amount of Hong Kong dollars in advance if they wanted to sell Hong Kong dollars short, and the most important "supplier" who provided them with these ammunition "Shanghai" refers to the four major banks in Hong Kong.
Earlier, the four major banks were not aware of the motives of Soros and others. They didn't know they were afraid until the war broke out, so Zeng Yingquan came to them today.
They rushed over for a meeting immediately, with the purpose of cooperating with the Hong Kong government's actions as much as possible to protect Hong Kong's economy while minimizing the losses of their own banks.
Zhou Hao said again: "We bought those Hong Kong dollars and put them back into your banking system to loosen your money and ease the continued soaring of interbank interest rates. In this way, we can effectively maintain the stability of Hong Kong dollars and interest rates. .”
