~3 min read 561 words

At 0:00 on July 1st, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, which had been away from the motherland for nearly a century, returned to the motherland.

Although Su Xinghui watched the live broadcast in his previous life, this time he was still on time to watch the live broadcast of the handover ceremony in front of the TV.

For such an exciting moment, even if he watched it a hundred times, he wouldn't think it was too much.

On the TV, he saw several familiar faces, Mi Mingquan and Xie Maosong were among them. They were all full of excitement, excitement, and pride. After all, they had a high sense of identity with the motherland. Otherwise, they would not have invested so much in the mainland. Now that they have experienced the Hong Kong handover ceremony in person, how could they not be excited?

The return of Hong Kong is a major event with far-reaching influence on China and even the world. However, many people didn't expect that just one day later, another major event with far-reaching influence on the world would happen in Asia.

This is the Asian financial crisis!

On July 2nd, the Thai currency market suddenly encountered an attack by hundreds of billions of international hot money. The price of the Thai baht fell like an avalanche. The Thai government announced the abandonment of the fixed exchange rate system and adopted a floating exchange rate system. Starting from this, a financial crisis that swept across Asia and affected the whole world began.

In fact, the attack of international hot money on the Thai baht began as early as June, but the scale was not so large at that time. The Thai government took out foreign exchange reserves to save the market and could temporarily resist it.

However, on July 2nd, the scale of funds attacking the Thai baht suddenly increased to an unimaginable magnitude, which knocked down the Thai government. They gave up resistance.

Mi Xiuyuan called Su Xinghui, and there was a kind of suppressed excitement in his voice: "Xinghui, we made a lot of money this time!"

They really made a lot of money this time. The financial market is indeed a terrible place. In just over ten days, the wealth accumulated by the Thai government through decades of hard work has vanished.

The international speculators who participated in the attack of course profited, but the biggest profit was the consortium formed with the Mi family and the Xie family as the core. They started preparations months ago, scattered funds in countless accounts, and operated.

By the time the Thai government announced the abandonment of resistance, their funds had expanded by more than double.

Mi Xiuyuan hurriedly told Su Xinghui the situation and hung up the phone. He still had to go to command the operation. This time they invested all their capital in this battle, and there could be no mistakes.

After receiving this call, Su Xinghui called Yu Ruizhi and others and went to the Huaiyang restaurant to eat together.

After the wine and food came up, Su Xinghui picked up his glass and said: "Come, let's have a drink together!"

Yu Ruizhi picked up his glass and said: "Xinghui, why did you suddenly call us to eat today? Is there any good news?"

Chu Zheng asked: "Is there any news from Southeast Asia?"
