The Son of Finance of the Great Age

  Chapter 332 Contributes to Presidential Candidates

   "What? Someone has been arrested? Charged with economic espionage?" Zhong Shi, who was originally calm, changed slightly after hearing the news, his eyes narrowed involuntarily, leaving only a thin gap.

   At this time, only half an hour had passed since Xu Youtian was taken away, and Zhong Shi had already received relevant news.

  Although he couldn't see Zhong Shi's eyes clearly at this time, Andrew could clearly feel a frightening light sweeping across his face, making him feel restless on pins and needles.

   After a long time, Zhong Shi opened his eyes again, and said with a blank face: "Besides, there should be something else? Let's say it all, the worst is the current situation."

   Andrew's expression eased slightly, and he let out a sigh of relief in his heart. If he had faced Zhong Shi in the past, he would not have felt such great pressure. Since the outbreak of the Asian currency crisis, Zhong Shi's power has grown day by day, and the halo above his head has become more and more dazzling. Regarding this situation, Andrew's experience was the most profound. He also changed his usual manner of laughing and joking, and became more and more cautious in front of Zhongshi.

Today's Andrew is doing some secret work more often, including espionage, information release, etc. These jobs sometimes need to walk in the gray area, as if what they are discussing now is from a bank of Korea. The latest information obtained from inside.

  The person in charge of contact is naturally Andrew, who connected with the South Korean side through Land Rover's security company, and then changed his name to inquire about some seemingly insignificant news from time to time.

Andrew collected himself, and then said: "Our informant said that this mission is too dangerous, and he doesn't intend to do it. But judging from his tone, he is not very firm, but he means to increase the price! "

"Price increase?" Zhong Shi snorted coldly, curled his lips and shook his head, "It's really interesting, it seems that we are not the one who bought the employees of the Bank of Korea, and there are even people who got ahead of us. And from the level and level of the acquisition Look, it's clearly getting to the inner core, which is way better than what we're doing."

  Even though Zhong Shi only spoke in a soft voice, Andrew's mind was in a hurry, and he still couldn't understand his implication. This was obviously dissatisfied with Andrew's work. Andrew immediately broke into a profuse sweat, and explained in a panic: "Zhong Sheng, this time there are indeed unspeakable difficulties. And it is the first time we do this kind of thing. You must know that the other party is an employee of the Central Bank. We are working with all our strength, and we can only reach the current situation, no matter how high it is, it is too dangerous."

Zhong Shi naturally knew what Andrew said, but he wanted to take the opportunity to beat Andrew, so he took the opportunity to say the above words. At this time, the purpose of beating had been achieved, so Zhong Shi took the opportunity Get off the donkey, and said lightly: "Actually, you have done a good job. Since the other party wants to increase the price, then we will give it to him. But as much as he wants, he has to pay enough news. After all, our money is hard Hard earned money."

  As soon as Andrew heard this, he felt amnesty, and quietly left Zhong Shi's office, wiping sweat all over his face.

  …

   "Retaliation? Political struggle?" Since Xu Youtian was abruptly taken away, Park Xilai has been sitting in his luxurious office, smoking one cigarette after another, making the whole room smoky.

   After slamming out a cigarette, Park Hee Lai reached out to touch the cigarette case again, only to find in astonishment that he had smoked all the cigarettes unconsciously. After sighing deeply, he stood up silently, walked to the large floor-to-ceiling windows, looked at the beautiful night scene on both sides of the Han River outside, but still couldn't solve the confusion in his heart.

   "Is it really a commercial espionage, or is it just a retaliation by the New Korea Party against me?" Ever since Xu Youtian was taken away, this confusion has been lingering in his mind. If it's the former, he can completely shirk his responsibility, but if it's the latter, I'm afraid he won't be able to pass the level so easily, and maybe he will continue to use subsequent tricks one after another.

   In the final analysis, it is a question of whether to protect Xu Youtian or not. If you keep it, you will inevitably be implicated. If you don't, you will chill the hearts of your subordinates. It is indeed a dilemma.

   At this moment, the phone on Park Xilai's desk rang suddenly, and the beeping sound was particularly loud in this quiet night. Looking at the telephone just a few meters away, Park Xilai frowned subconsciously, and was about to call in the secretary outside the door to reprimand him for a few words, but after another glance, his heart suddenly moved, he took two quick steps, and walked to the desk Picked up the phone.

"Mr. Park, are you okay?" Park Xilai didn't speak, a thick man's voice came from the microphone, he just exchanged a few words of greeting, and then he said to himself: "The news from the Intelligence Agency Yes, the guy surnamed Xu privately passed on the news about the country’s foreign exchange reserves to foreign countries. This time, he may be doomed. But don’t worry too much. A large hedge fund bought him and used inside information to short the Korean won, I believe you will not be involved."

  Pu Xilai was startled when he heard it, and then immediately overjoyed, he thanked the microphone again and again: "Mr. Jin, thank you so much. You are really like my reborn parents, no, you are even closer than my parents..."

  He actually copied Xu Youtian's usual words of "kneeling and licking" him, and then took it to "kneeling and licking" Mr. Jin on the phone, and there was no shame on his face, everything was so natural. It's a pity that Xu Youtian is not here. If he were, he would definitely clenched his fist, waved at Park Xilai, and boasted forcefully: "Ouba, fighting! (Brother, come on!

  Such naked flattery made the person on the other end of the phone speechless for a while, and it took him a while to react, and said lightly: "Mr. Park, you are already in a mess, take this opportunity to take a good rest, don't think about it."

Park Xilai could hear the taste of these words. Thinking of his performance just now, he couldn't help but blush, and secretly shook his head at his gaffe, but soon came back to his senses, anyway, the other party couldn't see him He straightened his waist and said into the microphone: "Mr. Jin, thank you this time. I don't know what I can do?"

  He is naturally very clear that others will not help him for no reason. Now it takes a lot of effort to help him find out the case, and there is a certain political risk on his back. If it is just pure help, he probably doesn't even believe it, so he will soon reciprocate.

"..." There was a silence on the other end of the phone, just when Park Xilai thought the other party had hung up, suddenly the other end said: "President Park, I am only a member of Congress, and I am still an opposition party, so I am not suitable for the past." I have been involved in state affairs in many places. However, like ordinary people in the Republic of Korea, I am very worried about the current plight of the Korean won!"

Wen Xian knew the elegant meaning, Park Xilai immediately understood, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Jin, since you mentioned the Korean won foreign exchange issue, as an authority in this area, I can't help but say a few more words. Although the Korean won seems to have temporarily stabilized , but in fact the international capital’s attack on the Korean won has always existed, and there is a growing trend. As the saying goes, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain, now is the time for a strong man to break his arm!"

"..." There was another silence on the other side of the microphone, and a long sigh was heard after a long time. Then the other party asked in a low voice: "Although I don't understand economics very well, I also know that once the Korean won depreciates, the living standards of the people will be reduced." It has to drop a lot. Thailand, Indonesia and other countries are lessons from the past!"

  When Park Hee Lai heard this, he felt disapproving. This kind of guy who always talks about the "Republic of Korea" would think that the other party is a braggart and unreliable person if he is someone who doesn't know the truth. But Park Xilai is very clear that the other party is one of the most popular candidates for the next president, but now he is acting on his behalf, which also makes him a little bit tasteful.

  But Park Hee Lai did not dare to offend him. Not to mention that he is currently the most popular presidential candidate, the fact that the other party is a member of Congress alone has to cheer him up. After a dry laugh, he said in a flattering tone: "This is an unavoidable thing! But Mr. Jin, you should also see the good side. If the Korean won is cheaper, it will be a huge export to us." The good news is that our Korean manufacturing will be popular all over the world and quickly defeat Japan!"

  The other party was speechless again. The first thing a mature politician considers is not illusory things. Exporting beyond Japan is obviously in this category, but there are many problems that need to be solved immediately, such as the chaos of the financial industry, such as the financing difficulties of large conglomerates, Another example is that a large amount of foreign debt needs to be repaid in the short term and so on.

This Mr. Jin was silent for a moment, and after Park Xilai came to his senses, he asked slowly: "President Park, is there really no other way for our Korean won? Although I am just an ordinary person, My love for the Republic of Korea is as deep as yours."

   "Damn, it's too hypocritical!" Park Xilai felt a chill in his heart, and almost blurted out what was in his heart. However, after gathering his composure, he could only say hypocritically: "Senior, I am so touched by your words. To tell you the truth, I am now in tears." Up to this point, he was very cooperative. He choked up twice, and then continued: "Senior, there is only one way to solve the current predicament, and that is to ask for help from the international community, and at the same time let go of the devaluation of the Korean won, and no longer intervene in the market."

   "Oh? How can this be explained?" The voice from the microphone immediately rose.

Park Xilai quickly suppressed the choked sobs he pretended, and analyzed one by one: "The current government is extremely resistant to international rescue, and it also wants to reorganize the financial system under the name of the Ministry of Finance. This is unreasonable and extremely counterproductive. It is a trendy approach. However, if the South Korean economy can be kept open and the economy can be stimulated in the shortest possible time, it can only be achieved through the depreciation of the Korean won. Although the Korean won has depreciated by more than 20%, this range is still not enough. According to my opinion From my point of view, at least 20% depreciation is needed to achieve the real exchange rate level. As for foreign debt, it can only be realized through international rescue. According to my judgment, the Korean economy will reach another level within a year or less .”

"But...but the current government is not willing to ask for help from the international community. As far as I know, the New Korea Party has reached a high degree of consensus on this." The voice in the microphone was visibly hasty, and it was obvious that the point had already been said .

Park Xilai smiled and said: "The more stubborn they are, the better. If the Korean won is allowed to float, our economy will suffer heavy losses in the short term. People from the New Korea Party are betting on the fate of the country. Obviously they will be defeated in a complete mess. If this is the case, seniors only need to raise their arms and raise their voices, so why worry about big things not being achieved?"

   "..."

   There was another silence in the microphone, only the sound of low and heavy breathing. This time, Park Xilai did not suspect that the other party hung up the phone, but lay comfortably on his luxurious sofa chair, crossed his legs, and waited leisurely.

After five full minutes, a loud and angry voice came from the microphone, yelling at Park Xilai: "President Park, I'm just a congressman and I don't know anything about the economy. I really can't understand these remarks. Your subordinates are suspected of selling state secrets. Although I can help you say a few words that do not violate the principles, if you want to make fun of national interests, I will never agree. "After finishing speaking, without waiting for Park Xilai's reaction, the other party hung up the phone heavily.

   There was a loud bang, almost deafening the ears of Park Hee Lai who was listening. He frowned subconsciously, put down the microphone that only beeped, and then said leisurely: "You're so **** black-bellied!"

  …

  United States, Manhattan, New York, Tiger Fund Headquarters.

  Billy Kim was saying something to Julian Robertson with a sad face. As he spoke, the face of Julian Robertson, who was originally happy because the Korean won fell again, gradually darkened.

   "So, our insider has been arrested? Then we can no longer monitor every move of the Bank of Korea?" After a long silence, Julian Robertson frowned and said unhappily.

Billy King rubbed his hands, looked nervously at Julian Robertson's face, and seeing that the boss didn't intend to take his anger out on him, he faltered and said, "Actually... actually, boss, we can... yes Aware of the actions of the Bank of Korea. It's just..."

   "Just what?" Julian Robertson's eyes shot out a cold light, instantly enveloping the embarrassed Billy King.
