Chapter 53
Fan has no illness, and it is easy to do things with money.
With 10 million US dollars, I can get two ambitious medical doctors studying in the United States to work for me, and I can also buy three academicians to cheer for me, and I don’t need to worry too much about the management and construction of the factory. When it comes to publicity after it comes out, it’s enough to do some effort secretly.
Such a good thing is really going well. The market prospect of disposable medical devices is very large. Taking advantage of the fact that this project has not yet been launched on a large scale in China, it is the most appropriate time to enter the market first.
Moreover, Fan Wubing also convinced himself in this way that in order to form a scale effect and avoid the emergence of many inferior disposable medical appliances that endanger the health of the public, he is obliged to show a little strength, at least his own factory produces them through regular channels Disposable medical appliances, the quality can be guaranteed, and the safety is beyond doubt.
The medical appliances designed by Li Shuheng and Bao Gang are all equipped with self-destruct devices, that is, real disposable appliances, not the kind that are likely to be recycled after use, and then re-used after a little cleaning. The fake disposables that flow back into the medical equipment market is an important reason why Fan Wubing is willing to help them.
Fan Wubing still has a firm stance on such a major matter that concerns the lives and safety of the people. From the beginning, a broad standard for disposable medical equipment must be formed, and it must not be left for those unscrupulous traders to take advantage of. machine.
Apart from this matter, Fan Wubing still has major matters to deal with.
In the information Kevin gave him from the Federal Reserve, there are some conversations between Greenspan and Soros to exchange views. From Zhong Fan Wubing, it can be seen that during the sterling storm last year, the two reached an agreement.
Last year, EU member states signed the "Maastricht Treaty", preparing for the formal establishment of the European Union. This treaty made some European currencies such as the pound sterling and the Italian lira overvalued, and their central banks will face enormous pressure to cut interest rates or depreciate, and differences with Germany, which has a strong economy, have also emerged in terms of economic policies.
When Soros exchanged views with Greenspan, he foresaw changes in the European exchange rate system. So he continued to expand the size of the position in preparation for the attack on the pound. As time went by, the British government's economic policy of maintaining high interest rates came under increasing pressure. It asked the German Bundesbank to lower interest rates, but the German Bundesbank was worried that the rate cut would lead to domestic inflation and possibly lead to economic collapse. A request for a rate cut in the UK was rejected.
The exchange rate between the British pound and the mark is constantly falling. Soros and some mutual funds and multinational companies that have long been engaged in arbitrage operations have sold weak European currencies in the market, making the central banks of these countries have to withdraw huge sums of money to support their respective currency values. .
Soros spent 10 billion U.S. dollars in this contest with the British government.
Sold seven billion U.S. dollars in sterling. Buy six billion US dollars to mark. The British government used foreign exchange reserves worth 26.9 billion U.S. dollars. But in the end it suffered a disastrous defeat. Forced to withdraw from the European exchange rate system. subsequently. Italy and Spain have also announced their withdrawal from the European Exchange Rate System.
Soros is the biggest winner in this attack on the pound. Known as the man who broke the Bank of England. in two weeks time. Soros' total profits from short sterling trades and long positions in British, French, and German interest rate futures and short Italian liras totaled $2 billion. Topped the list of Wall Street income list.
At first, Fan Wubing thought it was just a market speculation against the British pound. But through the Fed's data. It turns out it's not that simple. European currencies such as the pound sterling collapsed. Obviously, it is beneficial for the dollar to dominate. Among those who make money. Soros is just a baby crocodile. The Fed is the big crocodile.
He had to admire the business tricks of these Jews. It really is very powerful.
According to Fan Wubing's grasp of the situation. This year Soros secretly speculated on the German mark and shorted the yen. But in order to divert everyone's attention. He has shifted the battlefield to Malaysia in Southeast Asia.
Last few years. Western countries are in the process of economic recession. However, the economies of Southeast Asian countries have experienced miraculous growth. Economic strength is growing day by day. The economic outlook is bright. Southeast Asian countries are very optimistic about their respective national economies. In order to speed up the level of economic growth generation. Financial controls have been relaxed. Promote financial liberalization. In order to become Xindi's world financial center.
But Southeast Asian countries have overlooked some very important things in the flashing halo of economic prosperity. That is, the economic growth of Southeast Asian countries is not based on the growth of unit input and output, but mainly depends on the increase of external input. On this basis, financial regulation should be relaxed. Undoubtedly, high-rise buildings are built on the beach, exposing their respective currencies to international hot money without any protection, and are extremely vulnerable to the impact of international hot money from all directions.
Many people can see this situation, so Soros publicly declared that the Malaysian currency ringgit is seriously undervalued, and decided to use the ringgit as a breakthrough. He teamed up with some hedge fund managers to start besieging the ringgit, but Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir was determined to maintain the low currency value of the ringgit. Mahathir took a series of strong measures to strengthen the control of the country's capital market. Soros and some arbitrage fund managers had nothing to take advantage of, so they had to withdraw their troops for the time being.
Since Soros became famous overnight in the sniping campaign against the British pound, he has become a financial giant that governments around the world are strictly guarding against. Therefore, many people pay attention to him. It is very difficult to snipe a certain country’s currency on a large scale, so he has to cultivate The plank road kept Chen Cang in the dark, using the attack on Malaysia as a cover, and secretly planned to attack the German mark and Japanese yen.
Fan Wubing knew these two countries well, they were both very powerful economically, and their operation methods were quite flexible. The efficiency of government operation was far from comparable to that of Britain and Italy. Soros challenged them, it would be like asking for a dead end.
However, Fan Wubing was happy to follow suit and profit from it, so he ordered his subordinates to keep an eye on Soros' tail and report his recent movements at any time, so that a praying mantis catches cicadas and orioles follows.
This big layout is relatively long-term, but now, he ordered everyone to start absorbing stocks in the British real estate market on a large scale, waiting for opportunities to rise, because he found from the conversation records between Greenspan and Soros that Soros believed that the British real estate market Being in a trough is a good opportunity to make a profit. With his personality, he must have a good time.
Fan Wubing suddenly discovered that Kevin is really a big killer, at least until he finds someone to deal with him, the Fed's network security measures are useless to him.
In this case, how to make good use of this human resource and bring sufficient benefits to oneself is a very important thing. Fan Wubing also knows that hackers are rampant nowadays, and its background is that there are too many loopholes in the network structure, and the proportion of professional technicians is too low, and the maintenance cost of the network is too high. After all, expert-level technicians are extremely limited. Yes, spreading them in the vast network, trying to fill up so many loopholes, is really a bit powerless.
This further strengthened Fan Wubing's determination to vigorously build his own network security team, which can not only defend, but also attack when necessary! It seems that the input to Kevin and the others needs to be increased.
However, Fan Wubing has stayed in Beijing for too long. After he arranged the tasks of the financial team, he returned to Shanghai. The semester here has come to an end, and everyone is nervously reviewing. Take a look at the time of the exam, which is a week later.
"Do you still want to pass the exam?" Ren Xiaorou, Fan Wubing's homeroom teacher, was full of complaints after seeing Fan Wubing, "If you pass the exam, will others be mad at you?"
"Isn't it?" Fan Wubing saw that the resentment on Ren Xiaorou's face could make a big hole in the sky, he couldn't help but smiled wryly, "I was also arrested, didn't I want to skip class on purpose?"
In fact, not many people know about Fan Wubing's whereabouts. Even the headmaster only knows that Fan Wubing was recruited by the government, and the specific inside story is not clear. As for Ren Xiaorou and others, it is even more impossible to know the inside story. up.
But no matter what, Fan Wubing's trip to Beijing is considered an official business. The school can't do anything to him because of this matter. Instead, it has to consider the actual situation and properly compensate Fan Wubing. Ren Xiaorou complained so much because of her Undertook this important task of making up for Fan Wubing.
Ren Xiaorou brought Fan Wubing a lot of materials and study notes from other students, the boss pile, threw it on Fan Wubing's desk, and said, "Look, a week's time , get them done."
Fan Wubing suddenly felt dizzy. There are so many things, which are only a lot more than the textbooks. Isn't this killing people?
"Mr. Xiaorou, isn't there a simplified version of the review materials? Like an outline?" Fan Wubing asked.
"Outline? Is the one with the answer the best?" Ren Xiaorou asked with a smile.
"Hehe—" Fan Wubing nodded, Xin Dao Ren teacher is really understanding.
"Dream!" Ren Xiaorou said angrily, "Last time you got the review materials from the teachers of various subjects, but you got a lot of attention in the exam. This time, there is no way such a beautiful thing will happen! The director of the Academic Affairs Office personally Excuse me, and specifically point out that you must be strictly checked, and there must be no leakage of the test questions!"
I rely on! Fan Wubing was furious immediately, who is such an idiot, dare to confront him? !
