Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

Chapter 201 This is the true optical giant! (page 12)

Lauren Mullen is a speculator who often buys and sells London crude oil futures.

On this day, he looked at the latest issue of the newspaper and couldn't help but exclaimed: "I never expected that M would actually attack Y!!!"

"And, immediately sent a fleet to block the opponent's oil outlet!"

"Y is an important oil producer in the Gulf region. It is very rich in oil and gas resources. Its underground oil reserves are 204 billion barrels, which is approximately 9.6 billion tons, accounting for % of the world's total reserves. Its total long-term oil reserves rank first in the world. Second place! This war will definitely cause Iran’s oil production to plummet, which will lead to a surge in international crude oil prices!!!”

Lauren Mullen was extremely excited and believed that this incident would be an opportunity to make big money. He immediately opened the trading software and went long crude oil futures!

In Lauren Mullen's view, M is a world power, but Y is also a regional power with strong strength, and is known as the third most powerful country in the world in terms of military power.

M looking for Y's troubles from so far away will only make Mei fall into the quagmire.

Therefore, Lauren Mullen speculates that this oil crisis will last for a long time.

In fact, this is also the view of the vast majority of people.

No. 1 vs. No. 3, no matter what, it will take a year or two.

Now, the multinational force headed by M is still mobilizing troops, and there are still three or four months before the actual operation.

International crude oil prices are rising steadily.

By October, the price of crude oil had risen to US$10 a barrel.

At this time, Zhao Ye decisively ordered people to sell all the crude oil futures worth US$120 billion!

Next, the price of crude oil will basically not rise any more. Once the United States takes action, it will be almost devastating. After only 40 days, the so-called third place in the world collapsed.

Soon, the price of crude oil will fall from US$40 per barrel to below US$20 per barrel.

At this time, countless international hot money poured into the crude oil futures market, and there were countless takeovers. Within a few days, all the crude oil futures held by Wujiang Group were settled.

This transaction alone made Wujiang Group earn more than 110 billion US dollars!

However, this is not over yet.

Since Zhao Ye knew that the price of crude oil would soon plummet, he naturally wanted to go short.

So, immediately afterwards, Zhao Ye ordered people to short crude oil futures. Who would have thought that the United States and the United States were so awesome that beating them to the third place in the world was as easy as beating up a kindergarten kid. It could be solved in a few strokes.

Many international hot money and investment institutions believe that the United States will fall into a quagmire and cannot end the war in a short time, so crude oil prices will continue to rise.

Wujiang Group’s short and buy orders were snapped up by many people.

This time, we still invested 24 billion U.S. dollars, using 5 times leverage, which is 120 billion U.S. dollars. We must complete the layout in the next two months.

It can be said that once the short-selling orders of US$120 billion are completed, the largest short seller in the crude oil futures market will be Wujiang Group.

This wave of counter-trend operations may make many people disappointed.

At 10:3 on October , East Germany officially joined West Germany, and Germany became a unified country again!

Many people were slightly surprised when they saw the news.

But for Wujiang Group, it is very important.

In order to help the former East German region develop its economy and improve the welfare of the East German people, the German authorities announced that the exchange rate between the East German mark and the West German mark would become 1:1. The mark became the legal currency of circulation in Germany and was called the Deutsche Mark.

"Notify Tang Yingwu to formally launch an acquisition invitation to Western Zeiss!!!" Zhao Ye said to Liu Yinyin on the side after reading the news about the reunification of the two Germanys.

"Okay, boss." Liu Yinyin responded in a low voice, then walked outside and took out her phone to contact Tang Yingwu.

"Hello, Manager Tang, I am Secretary Liu Yinyin Liu. The boss has ordered us to immediately initiate an acquisition invitation to Zeiss West!"

"Okay, Secretary Liu, I understand, I'll do it now!!"

"Ok!"

Liu Yinyin hung up the phone, then walked to Zhao Ye and reported to him.

Zhao Ye nodded and continued to concentrate on writing code on the computer.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yinyin quietly exited the office.

Germany has the world-famous three optical giants: Leica, Carl Zeiss and Schneider.

After World War II, Zeiss was split into two, and Zeiss East was actually acquired by the Wujiang Group. It was simply impossible for Germany to get Zeiss East back from the Wujiang Group.

Moreover, since East Zeiss was acquired by Wujiang Group, it has received a lot of support. Nowadays, East Zeiss is developing better and better, while West Zeiss is on the verge of bankruptcy.

Now that the two Germanys have been unified, the merger of Zeiss East and Zeiss West has become the vision of many people.

The acquisition of Zeiss West by Zeiss East would be the best outcome.

Moreover, Zeiss employees also have very strong ideas about the merger of the two companies.

Under such circumstances, it is expected that the German government can only agree to this matter.

Western Zeiss quickly accepted the acquisition offer and had no objections as long as the price was right.

Three days later, Tang Yingwu formed a negotiating team with people from East Chase and started negotiations with West Chase.

Wujiang Group, the parent company of East Zeiss, has deep financial resources and directly expressed its intention to fully acquire West Zeiss.

The shareholders of West Zeiss actually want to exchange their shares.

However, Zhao Ye disagreed.

Zeiss has huge development potential. In the future, it will receive the full support of Wujiang Group and enter into four major business sectors: semiconductor manufacturing technology, industrial quality and research, medical technology and optical consumer goods business, thereby achieving remarkable achievements.

On November 11, Tang Yingwu and others finally reached an agreement with Zeiss West. Zeiss East acquired Zeiss West for 15 million marks, worth almost more than 8 billion US dollars. This is considered a premium acquisition, otherwise the shareholders of West Zeiss would not easily sell their shares.

Now all it takes is approval from the German government.

German government.

"The Wujiang Group wants to acquire West Zeiss, what do you think?" Roger Bowen looked at the other congressmen and asked.

"I think I agree. Instead of letting Zeiss West go bankrupt, it's better to sell it to Zeiss East! Zeiss is our German company after all. Now that East and West Germany have been unified, it's time for the two Zeiss companies to merge together!" Councilor A. Doyle suggested.

"I disagree. Zeiss is our century-old German optical giant. If we want to sell it, we can only sell it to us Germans!" Someone immediately objected.

When Noah Doyle heard this, he curled his lips and said: "The Wujiang Group has acquired East Zeiss, what is the meaning of your remarks! As long as Zeiss still has a factory in Germany, as long as the name Zeiss still exists, people will always remember it. Zeiss was founded by Germans!”

Many people couldn't help but nodded secretly after hearing this.

Noah Doyle added, "The intention to merge East and West Zeiss is very strong, and ordinary employees are extremely excited and looking forward to it. If we do not agree to this acquisition, I am afraid it will cause a backlash in public opinion. Now, Our two Germanys have just been reunified, but we have explicitly banned the merger of East and West Zeiss. Does this mean that we are actually opposed to the reunification of the two countries? If this is misinterpreted by the media, I am afraid it will cause instability among the people in East Germany."
