Chapter 840

~7 min read 1,255 words

Financial Secretary Building.

Top floor office.

The Secretary looked at the stocks of the Hang Seng Index displayed on the computer and was sweating.

Just one interview with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, and the Hang Seng Index rose rapidly, while himself? A press conference only barely stabilized the index...

The effect was not as good as Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's few words!

Although he had expected it, he still felt uncomfortable inside.

After thinking about it, he called the secretary and instructed the secretary to call the Five Star Group to invite Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu to meet.

Soon, the secretary made the call.

"Hello, this is the Five Star Group Secretary's Office, what's the matter?"

"Hello, I am the secretary of the Financial Secretary's Office. The Secretary wants to invite Mr. Guan to have a meal together. I don't know if it's convenient?"

Central Plaza.

Top floor.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was chatting with Fang Zhanbo about when to close the net on Thailand's "investment".

Fang Zhanbo: "Currently, the Thai baht has depreciated to 43.2:1, but I think there is still room for further decline."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded. If he remembered correctly, in his previous life, the Thai baht depreciated to 50+: 1. In this life, with his participation, the Thai baht will only be more miserable.

"Our contract time is September... I don't know when the Thai baht will fall to by September."

Knock knock knock~~~

Just at this time,

Liang Xiaorou knocked on the door and walked in.

"Brother Zu~~"

"What's wrong?"

"The Finance Secretary's secretary called and wanted to invite you to meet, Brother Zu."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu heard this and was happy: "Good, the weather is good tomorrow, I want to go sea fishing. Tell him if he is interested, go out to sea fishing with me..."

Liang Xiaorou: "Good."

In a flash,

The next day, after more than ten days of rain, the sky was still covered with gloomy clouds, and the temperature was over 20 degrees.

After 10:00 AM.

The Financial Secretary took a car to Aberdeen Pier and then boarded a yacht to go out to sea.

The Secretary looked at the secretary and asked: "Where did Mr. Guan agree to meet?"

The secretary said: "At the bay northwest of Lantau Island."

Soon, the yacht sailed north all the way, passed the Tsing Yi Bridge, and then bypassed the north side of the new Lantau Airport.

The Secretary looked at the new airport from afar.

The original construction site had basically been completed.

It was currently in the final finishing and acceptance stage.

This airport is expected to be officially opened in June 1998, and then Kai Tak Airport will be abandoned.

After bypassing the new airport,

Finally, he saw a huge yacht from afar, parked in the waters north of Lantau Island.

Approaching.

Then the Secretary saw a group of Five Star Group executives, with their families and children, fishing and playing on it.

"Really young..."

The Secretary looked at those Five Star Group executives, each of them was at most 30 years old, which was too young for Hong Kong's number one group.

Soon,

The Secretary took the secretary and boarded the yacht.

"Secretary, welcome welcome..."

"Mr. Guan!"

The two shook hands.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was wearing beach shorts and a t-shirt, without any seriousness of "talking about business", by the way, he also held his daughter to greet him.

Instead, the Secretary was wearing suit pants and a white shirt, very formal.

At a glance, he was the one who was the ox and horse.

Chatted for 20 minutes, drank some fruit juice...

Then started talking about business.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and the Secretary sat at the bow of the boat, each with a fishing rod, cast the fishing hook, and waited for the fish to take the bait.

"Mr. Guan, this Soros financial storm is coming fiercely. I don't know what Mr. Guan thinks? I am also the Financial Secretary for the first time, and I hope Mr. Guan can give some advice."

"The Secretary is the Secretary for the first time, and there is good in having no experience."

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled.

In his previous life, the Secretary had a nickname called "One Move", which is that he only knows one move — raising interest rates, which is the same as Thailand's approach.

Then he was complained about by citizens.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was not prepared to remind him.

If he reminded him, what if Soros was scared away?

The Secretary chatted with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu for a while and found that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu really didn't give advice, and was just talking about other things.

For example:

"Secretary, this Soros is here, it's good for Hong Kong..."

"As long as Soros is killed, Hong Kong's reputation will inevitably rise, and you, Secretary, will naturally be able to sit firmly in the position of Secretary..."

The Secretary smiled bitterly.

He changed an angle and asked: "Mr. Guan, if Soros comes, what does Mr. Guan want to do?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought about it and said: "Hong Kong is a free economic port. What I think of is naturally freedom, for example... don't stop Soros from buying stock index short orders, for example..."

One word, freedom.

The Secretary's heart moved: "Mr. Guan, are you fishing?"

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu pointed to the fishing rods of the two and smiled: "Look at us fishing, before fishing, we always have to put some bait. The loss of this kind of bait is worth it. If you don't put bait, how can the big fish come?"

The Secretary was thoughtful.

It seems that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's confidence in Hong Kong is extremely high, so he dared to attract more hot money and then close the door to beat the dog.

1 hour later,

The Secretary took his secretary, boarded his yacht, and left.

On the yacht,

The secretary looked back at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's huge yacht: "Secretary, it seems that Mr. Guan is very confident."

The Secretary smiled: "Now I am also very confident."

Since Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said it's okay, then naturally it's okay.

Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu was right.

If Soros ran away, where would he find such a great achievement.

The Secretary felt: If he doesn't fight for it, it's a pity!

On the Hong Kong side, it was calm.

And international hot money was like a fierce hungry wolf, smashing the market crazily in the stock, futures, and foreign exchange markets of Southeast Asian countries.

On July 16, 1997, the Central Bank of the Philippines announced the abandonment of the fixed exchange rate system between the Philippine peso and the US dollar, allowing the peso to float freely.

Once the news came out,

The Philippine financial market collapsed across the board.

Then it triggered a chain reaction, and other Southeast Asian countries fell, fell, fell~~~

"What? Another typhoon?"

"Is there any mistake!"

"Two typhoons in a month?!"

At the end of July, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu saw the news from the Observatory reported by ATV and was directly stupid.

This time, named Typhoon Victor, it was still a No. 9 typhoon signal.

The typhoons in 1997 came more than ever before.
