Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era - Chapter 598
Chapter 598 At the moment of the decisive battle, Tao Zhiming, who lost the red eye, and the Li family who were stripped naked
Time ticks, ticks.
At the moment when the New Year’s bell rings, the top 30 enterprise groups in Zhou Kingdom, big and small chaebols, including Kia, have already closed down 6.
The debt ratio of Jiuxing, Hyundai and Daewoo has also reached an average of around 400%, which is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Within two weeks, more than 10,000 people from the Zhou Kingdom took their own lives.
The exchange rate of Zhou Yuan against Mi Yuan has approached 2000 from more than 800 at that time.
Shigemitsu Takeo looked at Jin Sanyong with a livid face, and Jin Yuzhong, the hot-tempered president of Daewoo, had already roared: “After this money is borrowed, the debt must be repaid first, and then the follow-up money can be borrowed, so what about alleviating the debt problem? Return their money to them first, and we still can’t turn the situation around!”
“The interest rate is going to be raised to 30%, and the loan cost is going up so much, how can we still operate? The tide of bankruptcy is going to be coming soon. Your Excellency, is it because you will be leaving office soon, so you just leave the problem to your successor?”
“The foreign ownership limit has been greatly increased to more than 50%, foreign acquisitions are allowed, foreign private banks and securities companies are allowed to be established, and all financial institutions and state-owned banks are subject to IMF supervision… What a joke? What a shame!”
Jin Sanyong listened to their discussions, patted the table and said in a deep voice: “Then the bank gave you all the support in the past, did you just let you expand blindly and raise the debt ratio to this level? Because the bank’s bad debts can no longer be digested. , the foreign exchange reserves have been exhausted, is the whole country really completely bankrupt? After the agreement was signed, the value of Zhou Yuan rose by 2.5% on the day, and the stock market rose by 15%. Do you have a better way?”
The room fell silent, and Jin Sanyong continued to output: “Do you think you didn’t make every effort to try? The Industrial Bank and the Export-Import Bank have been trying to issue neon yen bonds and bonds in other currencies, all of which are government-owned assets. Guarantees. However, they all failed! Preliminary estimates show that since the US dollar began to raise interest rates and the neon yen began to depreciate, the amount of funds that neon has withdrawn from the Asia-Pacific region has exceeded 230 billion yuan!”
“Under the cover of the rectification of Neon Finance and the reorganization of the consortium, not only the Zhou Kingdom, but also everyone has not paid enough attention! The financial turmoil started, and Kia’s 14 overseas factories closed down in an instant. Don’t you think of your own solutions because you are worried about the debt problem? Have you heard of anyone who got money from external funding channels?”
Shigemitsu Takeo remembered the promises of Tao Dalang, Sumitomo and Mitsubishi at that time and the betrayal now, and kept silent.
Jin Sanyong exhaled a long breath, and finally said: “The IMF era has begun. This is to use the country’s credit as a guarantee to temporarily get out of the state of credit bankruptcy. Go all out, layoffs, shrinkage, salary cuts…it doesn’t work. What way to get out of the current state of such a high debt ratio as soon as possible!”
The boat is done, but the sickle is not cutting the throats of these chaebols now.
Obviously it was a conspiracy, but those people just spread the tablecloth first, picked up the knife and fork, and looked at them gracefully.
Shigemitsu Takeo and Jin Yuzhong looked at these familiar faces, and their hearts were full of vigilance.
Whoever reveals flaws and cannot solve the debt problem will become a delicious meal in front of them when the financial system is supervised by the IMF and the interest rate is as high as 30% in the future when there is an extreme lack of new sources of funds.
Although they can temporarily pant with their huge bodies, the way they can only pant is as Jin Sanyong said.
Layoffs, shrinkage, pay cuts…
On the Han River Bridge, a figure stands hunched over a high truss.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on his face, and the smudged luster of the wrinkles is full of old and tired feeling.
In his 50s, he was bombarded by planes to read and write, and he used to mine abroad with an army of millions of laborers. In the end, he continued to learn and joined the Daewoo Group, becoming a young engineer with tens of millions of Zhou Yuan.
In his hand, he tightly held a light green note, which was a 200 million Zhou Yuan promissory note that had become waste paper.
Banks are bankrupt and everything is over.
“This gentleman! Be strong!”
He glanced blankly at the person shouting on the bridge, then closed his eyes and leaned forward.
Destroy it, it’s too tired.
The dust of the era just fell on him, too heavy, too heavy.
But how much dust is the age?
The scale of layoffs in various companies generally exceeds 30%.
Every day, thousands of people lose their jobs.
By the time Admiralty entered the Qing Palace, the newly unemployed population was approaching 2 million.
In the dignified capital, 250,000 people deliberately escaped subway tickets because they wanted to be caught because they had food in prison.
Some small business owners with good conscience blocked the door of the bank all night, or simply joined the ranks of “robbing banks” because they had no money to pay their employees.
The price has been transferred to ordinary people, but the decisive actions of the chaebols have “increased” the market’s confidence in them.
Daewoo, who is on the verge of bankruptcy, seems to have a market value that will allow the group to continue to survive.
But Jin Woo-jung knew it was just an illusion, he seemed to see some people swallowing their saliva.
“Just do it!” He made up his mind and began to arrange his own backhand.
As for Daewoo’s future, and the 200,000 employees who depend on him to live, he has no time to take care of it.
“Come on, come on, meet ninety-eight…”
Tao Zhiming listened to the unfamiliar and familiar melody with a strong sense of age.
In the distant kingdom of Zhou, Jin Zhong was unbelievably tough. He dismissed 15% of government employees in one go, and forcibly liquidated more than 20,000 small and medium-sized enterprises.
Resources are concentrated, and they are all concentrated in the chaebols that are still alive.
Even within the chaebol, he is pushing hard for integration.
“If you want to really survive, don’t spend your energy in internal struggles!” He looked at Shigemitsu Takeo, “Why does Tianle do semiconductors? Let’s merge into Jiuxing, including state-owned semiconductor companies. According to this line of thinking Do it! I will visit immediately and borrow money to help you inject capital. But the premise is that you focus on your respective fields and do your best to deal with the crisis! Then, end the IMF era as soon as possible!”
Shigemitsu Takeo’s eyes flashed coldly, do you want to do this?
Then there is a good show to watch.
Tianle’s high-tech business, which was participated by the people of Neon.
In the atmosphere of the Lunar New Year at the moment, Li Jiacheng was in no mood at all.
To attack the Hong Kong stock index, the blue-chip stocks such as Hongdao Telecom and Dajiang Industrial are naturally the best targets.
Li Jiacheng spends his days in anxiety.
Especially knowing that the stock index futures they bought even set the expectation of the Xiangdao stock index at less than 6,000 points, and Li Jiacheng hadn’t slept well after that.
“Tao Sheng!” Li Jiacheng cried and grimaced through New Year’s greetings, “Is it too big? The highest point was 16,000 points! If I fall so much, I will go bankrupt!”
Tao Zhiming reluctantly spread his hands: “Isn’t that true? Isn’t Li Sheng making money in another direction?”
The Li family is stuck, can you get that money out? Shorting the Xiangdao stock index by yourself, right?
The key problem is that although I knew that they would play a big game this time, I never expected that Xiangfu’s attitude was so tough, and Yanjing’s position was so firm.
If the financial free port is not truly free to trade, and the government has directly intervened, can it still have the attractiveness of the financial free port?
This is almost the foundation of Plan Xiang Island.
But because of this, and because so many stock index futures contracts have been placed, this battle must be completely decided.
has now become a contest of the amount of funds reserved by both parties.
“It’s okay.” Tao Zhiming comforted him, “As long as the winner is determined, Li Sheng has a lot of solutions. Even if he is temporarily on the verge of bankruptcy, there are still many procedures to go through, right?”
Li Jiacheng looked at him speechlessly, who knew that the main battlefield was not in Zhou Kingdom? Who knew that Zhou Kingdom was taken down so quickly and so simply?
Zhou Yuan more than doubled the value of the month in just a short period of time, and then was pulled back again. The foreign exchange transactions in the process made them money.
Xiangfu has no scruples to fight this battle, and Xia Guo doesn’t care whether this approach will be accused of interfering in the market, and thus be kicked out of the WTO.
This is indeed beyond the expectations of many people.
This is good, they have swept the entire Asia Pacific, and now they are heading south to Indonesia.
The momentary tranquility in front of us is just the night before.
When their money swells again in the south, they will come here again and launch the final general attack, right?
“No! Tao Sheng, you have to help me!” Li Jiacheng stated his real purpose today, “I’ll mortgage… that part of the proceeds to you, and lend me some cash first!”
Tao Zhiming looked at him strangely: “Don’t you know that my old enemy Banzawa Izumi is going to take office? I have been checked so many times by him, you need a lot of money, and the central bank will definitely review this loan. Aren’t you afraid that your secret fund will be exposed and scolded to ashes in Xiangdao?”
“I…” Li Jiacheng had a headache.
Tao Zhi’s life is as stable as Mount Tai, waiting for him to make a decision.
Li Jiacheng gritted his teeth: “Then use the land on Lamma Island and some shares of Dajiang Industrial as collateral!”
The great man Tao Zhiming nodded: “You can evaluate more money, how much more, it depends on how much Li Sheng can share the proceeds of that money with me.”
Li Jiacheng looked at him sharply: “Tao Sheng, although you are using a long-established source of funds, Zhiming Trust has appeared in the list of short sellers in Thailand. On the side of Xiangdao, Tao Sheng is also suspected of participating. “
Tao Zhiming sneered nonchalantly: “Now the rich families, who hasn’t secretly arranged a sum of money to hedge risks? Big brother doesn’t laugh at second brother, ordinary citizens, who haven’t finished losing money, haven’t many joined the ranks of short sellers? In front of interests, human nature is real. After this turmoil, we will increase investment in the future to build a beautiful and new Fragrant Island.”
Li Jiacheng felt a little powerless in his heart.
Time has changed and this guy has become a chess player. And although the Li family has a great reputation in Xiangdao, they have not been able to reach that level after all.
He has been powerless to stop this huge storm, although his Li family’s foundation in Xiangdao has now become the front line and **** in this battle.
is true, who would have thought that the already developed and powerful Zhou Kingdom would surrender so simply?
Shame!
…
Banzawa Kazuki took office, and Neon Bank entered the Banzawa era.
The first thing he did was to deal with Zhou Kingdom’s crazy actions.
“Jiuxing is already the world’s No. 1 in the DRAM market!”
In front of Banzawa Kazuki are the presidents of major banks, Anzai Yoshie, Takagi Renpachi, Nojima Tatsuo, Chiyan Tianyang, these are all old acquaintances.
“Now Zhou Kingdom is taking the initiative to merge other semiconductor industries into Jiuxing. Neon’s semiconductor industry has already suffered heavy losses. I suggest that you also consider carefully. This point, I agree with the cabinet’s views. Hitachi, NEC, Mitsubishi Only when they are separated out and integrated together can they compete with the nine stars behind in the field of memory chips!”
As for why Neon Bank came forward, of course, it was because the opposite side was also the end of the country, so this side naturally had to take countermeasures. Now there is at least one advantage: the financial situation on Neon’s side is much better than that of Zhou Kingdom at this time.
Semiconductor is a topic on everyone’s mind.
It is because of the rise of neon in the future high-tech industry represented by semiconductors that the United States, which has concerns, raised the sword of sanctions.
From the beginning of the semiconductor agreement to the later Toshiba incident, who has not suffered from it?
That’s right, Tao Dalang doesn’t have one.
“…Speaking of memory chips, our NAND technology has been transferred to President Tao’s silicon chip. In principle, there is no problem in this matter. But who will be the leader?” Nojima Tatsuo said. .
To be honest, they are already relatively pessimistic about the future of neon memory chips and even the entire semiconductor industry.
After all, the reason why the semiconductor industry of the universe can rise is not because of the support of the United States?
Now Jiuxing has received the support of the state of Zhou Kingdom, and after the financial turmoil, they will become the direct line of the Omi Consortium. It is better to divide enough benefits to go out, of course, to gain a larger market share in the future.
Hitachi, NEC and Mitsubishi Electric, if they are still fighting each other, there is indeed more hope. But even if they are twisted together, the competition in this market may not be purely a business issue.
Nojima Tatsuo said this to express his position: Since Tao Dalang wanted the next generation of storage technology, I am afraid he is the most enthusiastic in this regard. The establishment of silicon chip can explain many problems.
One more thing, that guy is like a courtesan who gets along well with too many people. Maybe it would be better for him to come forward.
Finally, if he is in charge, other parties can also get a sum of money from him, right?
The guy who is called the walking **** of finance at such a grand financial feast this time has no idea how much he can earn. At the beginning, everyone agreed that he should give up that boat, and he was really worried that the pattern of the four major consortiums in the future would actually become a superpower and a superpower.
Hansawa Ichiki looked at Takagi Renhachi and asked in a complicated mood, “When will President Tao return to Tokyo?”
Takagi Ren smiled shyly: “This… Banzawa-sang, you also know that there will be a showdown of hundreds of billions of dollars or even trillions of dollars on Xiangdao. I am afraid that before this matter comes to an end, The president will always stay there.”
“Since you all think this direction is okay, let’s go to negotiation.” Hansawa Kazuki waved his hand, “The central bank will provide financial support for this matter.”
Because of the impact of the financial turmoil, the re-division of the industrial structure began like this.
Not only the people from the Neon Consortium came to Fragrant Island, but also Takeo Shigemitsu and Li Xi from Jiuxing Semiconductor came to Fragrant Island.
This is embarrassing.
On one side is the super semiconductor group that Zhou Kingdom is going to form, and on the other is the memory chip group that Neon is going to form. The two sides were originally going to fight against Taiwan, but now they have a relationship with Tao Zhiming.
Takeo Shigemitsu felt that he supported his own development of the high-tech industry at the beginning, did he aim at today?
“Mr. Li, I invested in Tianle Electronics because I was optimistic about this industry.” Tao Zhiming faced Li Xi and smiled kindly, “I am not short of money now, and there is really no reason to quit. Funds, get rid of the problem that the debt ratio is too high now? If you need funds, I can see here that under the circumstance that the restructured Jiuxing Electronics has a greater prospect, an exception will be made for a credit loan. “
Li Xi looked complicated.
In order to alleviate the current situation of Jiuxing, it has had to absorb more overseas capital to become shareholders. Although the operating control is still in their own hands, it is impossible for them to lose their dividends every year in the future. Just financial regulation and disclosure of necessary information can be a headache.
Now, this guy is also in the semiconductor business, but there is no good way to clear him out of the restructured Jiuxing Electronics.
Is there extra money to tempt him now and clear him out?
Takeo Shigemitsu is clearly uneasy and kind, but now he can use the big tree Tao Zhiming to let Jiuxing Electronics give more money to Tianle.
However, with the support of Qinggong, Jiuxing Electronics can become the only one in the semiconductor industry of Zhou Kingdom. Such an opportunity must not be missed.
Li Xi looked at the young man, and his confidence and pride surged. If it’s just competition, do it head on. The self who can develop Jiuxing Electronics to this level will not necessarily lose to him who is only working as a foundry.
“Mr. Tao, I don’t know how much this credit loan can be?”
Tao Zhiming stretched out a slap: “500 million yuan. Mr. Li, I actually hope that Jiuxing Electronics can develop better and better. It is definitely a good decision to let me become a shareholder of your company. At least, my silicon element Chips will allow Jiuxing Electronics to have more production capacity.”
500 million yuan is really not a small number, especially for Jiuxing at this moment.
was just a preliminary negotiation, and Li Xi went back with this information.
And then facing the Neon families, Tao Zhiming shook his head: “Don’t hurt me, everyone. I really don’t have that much money, it’s impossible for me to lead, but I can participate in a part, the same I just need to get some OEM orders. I can invest 100 billion yen, there is not much more.”
After they all left, Zhao Yuanxi couldn’t help but ask, “Why didn’t you take it down? Such a good opportunity!”
He didn’t believe that Tao Zhiming really had no money.
“What are you going to do with it?” Tao Zhiming disagreed, “Don’t be stubborn in other people’s fields, my goal now is to deploy production capacity!”
His sights are on SMC.
Only by mastering some sources of orders can we seize BSMC, which is also a foundry.
With the R&D investment and process opportunities of the dual-stage lithography machine and the immersion lithography machine, it is possible to seize the eggs of those leading brand owners who have mastered design patents in the field of production capacity step by step.
Tao Zhiming was not in a hurry at all. His vision pattern not only looked at the whole world, but also looked at the future twenty years later.
Now, instead, we have to support them and make the era of computers and the Internet more violent.
Besides, where do many benefits need to be obtained now? At the turn of the millennium, isn’t there still an Internet bubble crisis?
Let Omi’s gang make a big somersault here on Fragrant Island this time, will they be even more uncomfortable then?
Tao Zhiming’s attention was still on Fragrant Island.
From the current point of view, Xia Guo has really digested a lot of news he passed back through Lin Qiyu.
This battle is already assured.
I am willing to admit defeat, since a large number of Xiangdao citizens and rich people have joined the ranks of bearish Xiangdao stock index, then don’t blame yourself for being a victim of the times.
Time has come to August, and Li Jiacheng’s mentality has completely changed.
Right now, we can only hope that Tao Zhiming will win. If he wins, he still has a huge secret income, which can save the situation later.
Xiangdao stock index has really approached 6000 points.
“…Are you running out of ammo? Did Yanjing give up?”
There are still people who are stuck in it and expect the stock market to be pulled up. But at this moment, they are really desperate.
On the first day of August, the decisive battle officially began.
The selling order of more than 40 billion Hong Kong coins was thrown out in one breath, but the HKMA still took it, and the exchange rate remained stable. But the stock index fell another 3%, and the foreign exchange market stabilized. What about the stock market?
Li Jiacheng was stunned as he watched the next day, and the Xiangdao stock index rose little by little.
“How is this going?”
Tao Zhiming, and Tao Yaren, all of them changed color.
“How can there be so much money left?” Tao Zhiming acted extremely well, “It’s impossible! From last year to now, we have fought so many times in one year. This is an offensive of hundreds of billions of dollars!”
“It’s probably an attack on the heart, this should be the last illusion, I hope to force us to quit!”
“What a joke, if you just give up before the settlement date of the futures, wouldn’t it be a heavy loss?” Tao Zhiming looked at Li Jiacheng suddenly, “Li Sheng, do you understand the seriousness? The loan is ready to be taken after the settlement date. The money that came out to raise the plate should be used here first!”
Li Jiacheng stared at those cold eyes.
Yes, if the stock index is really lifted by the Xiangfu, if the stock index on the final settlement day is above 6000 points or even higher, then they will all lose a lot.
Tao Zhiming is like a red-eyed gambler: “We are going to add a batch of short-term contracts and continue to sell short in September! To tell you the truth, I still have 5 billion yuan left, so don’t keep your hands!”
As a “collaborator”, everyone else knows that Tao Zhiming has mobilized their visible capital scale of 20 billion yuan to invest in this batch of bearish contracts.
I don’t know why, other people wanted to see him lose once, and then they remembered that they couldn’t bear the consequences of this loss.
That would be too painful.
However, for the war on the stock index futures contracts on August 28, the meat grinder generally consumes the funds of both sides, but the Xiangdao stock index is still climbing little by little.
Dajiang Industrial’s stock price came back, but Li Jiacheng was not happy at all, and even more and more chilling.
If they all lose, then their own money will also be lost.
What’s more, in order to spend the winter, he raised money through many channels before, including loans, pledges, and the second phase of the Lamma Island real estate project that Ti Yiming advanced…
What will happen to the debt collection at that time?
On August 26, two days before the settlement of stock index futures contracts, as soon as the market opened, selling orders hit like a tsunami. In just 15 minutes, the turnover reached more than 2 billion coins. 15 minutes before the market closed, it reached 10.2 billion Hong Kong coins.
However, the Xiangdao stock index has already rushed to 8,000 points.
Tao Yaren looked at Tao Zhiming in disbelief, only to see his face pale.
This is the first time Taoya people have seen this kind of expression on Tao Zhiming’s face.
It’s been a month, where did the other party come from so much money, and have been taking in so much power to spit out the selling order?
Tomorrow, is it possible to rush the stock index below 6000 points in one go?
A single-day drop of more than 25%? how can that be…
“How much ammo do you have on hand?” Tao Yaren couldn’t help asking.
Tao Zhiming muttered to himself: “Not enough…not enough…The market value of Xiangdao’s stock market is only so much in total, and all our selling scales are not enough to drop the stock index below 6,000 points…”
Then, these people looked at Li Jiacheng and others in unison.
Li Jiacheng was horrified: “We can’t do such a thing! As a major shareholder of blue-chip stocks, how could it be possible to reduce our holdings at this time?”
Tao Zhiming opened his mouth: “Sell it to me! I’ll make it! I have the money, but the ammunition is not enough!”
“Are you crazy? In this way, we will all become the target of public criticism of Kashima citizens!”
“No! Now I don’t know how many people want us to be honest. Everyone is so dirty, and they all want to make a fortune! They scolded us and gave us a few sticks of incense behind their backs to thank Tao Sheng Li Sheng! I’m not afraid! You know If it ends like this, how much will I lose? 30 billion! Mi Yuan!”
Li Jiacheng shook his head frantically: “It’s just that he didn’t make any money. Where did he really lose so much? It can’t be calculated by subtracting the final profit from the expected profit! Tao Sheng, stop!”
“What do you say?” Tao Zhiming’s eyes were bloodshot, this was true. In order to perform this scene well, he has not slept well for many days before he can achieve this state of exhaustion, excitement and madness.
Looking at Tao Zhiming’s appearance, Tao Yaren and the others remembered that they had promised to cede the interests of the Li family to him, so now there is a reason to recover the loss, what is there to hesitate?
Li Jiacheng’s heart plummeted.
You are all gambling crazy, you want to seek revenge and go to Xiangfu and the mainland!
Why come to us?
The families of Xiangdao, who have pinned their hopes on these international capital consortia, ushered in a darkest night.
Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it is destined to be a shocking drama, and everyone is fiercely exposed.
Li Jiacheng found that he was unable to resist all this happening, and he couldn’t afford to offend these people.
It was dawn, and the major shareholders of several blue-chip stocks in Xiangdao did not know if they knew anything, and at the same time insisted on extracting funds from their shares. But those shares then joined the smashing team.
This is really a naked war, who can’t understand it?
That Tao Zhiming also made everyone see his face thoroughly. He is one of the short sellers of Xiangdao!
But on the 27th, the scolding outside the stadium was more lively than the fight inside the stadium.
Everyone knows that tomorrow is the time to finish the work.
On the 28th, at dawn, at 10 am, the decisive battle started.
The sales volume was piled up in a tsunami, and in one morning, the transaction volume reached 57 billion Hong Kong coins.
But the general trend has passed, and no one can understand, where the bulls come from so much money, and they can receive all the money according to the order.
At the moment when the market closed, the trading point of Xiangdao stock index futures was locked at 8132 points.
In the villa of Tao Zhiming’s family in Repulse Bay, Duan Lanyue’s fingers trembled involuntarily. Looking at the numbers above, she felt that it was hard to breathe.
Years later, many talents found strangely that after this decisive battle, Tao Zhiming had broken his undefeated golden body and lost very badly, but many blue-chip stocks represented by the Li family in Xiangdao actually gained a batch of domestic capital. Major shareholders in the background.
As long as it is integrated a little bit, and a little more money is added, it seems that… Xiangdao actually has a number of… State-owned enterprises?
is too paradoxical…
