Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

"Yang Sheng" saw Yang Chen suddenly appear, and the secretary of the big class king hurriedly got up from his seat.

Yang Chen opened his mouth and asked: "Is the big class king in there?"

"Yes, the president has explained that if Yang Sheng comes up, he can go directly to his office."

After finishing speaking, the secretary looked at Junzi and Tietou, as if wanting to remind something.

Seeing this, Yang Chen waved to Junzi and Tietou, "Just wait here for a while."

"Ok, boss"

dong dong——

"please come in"

Hearing the knock on the door, Shen Porridge responded without looking up, and continued to work on the work in hand.

Hearing Taiban Wang's voice, Yang Chen opened the office door and walked in.

Seeing Taipan Wang sitting at his desk busy with work, Yang Chen didn't bother, and was going to sit in the rest area.

Without hearing the secretary's voice, Shen Conge raised his head in doubt.

"Yang Sheng" Shen Congee was a little surprised.

"Mr. Shen, good morning." Yang Chen smiled.

Taipan Wang put down the pen in his hand and got up from the chair, "Sheng Yang, why did you come up so early? I thought you would come up to find me at noon."

Yang Chen said unexpectedly: "Mr. Shen knows that I want to come up?"

Shen Congee smiled and said, "Guess, I'm not sure, but even if you don't come up, Yang Sheng, I will look for you."

"Please sit down. I need something to drink. I'll ask the secretary to prepare it for you."

Yang Chen: "Drink tea, don't drink coffee in the early morning."

"Wait a while" Hearing that Yang Chen wanted to drink tea, Shen Congee got up from the sofa and walked to a counter in the office.

Soon, Shen Porridge came back with a small closed wooden tea bucket, which seemed to be wrapped with a layer of gold foil paper on the outside of the small tea bucket, which looked very precious.

Seeing that Yang Chen was curious, Shen Congee smiled and said: "This is what the Chartered Ship King left with me, Wuyishan Dahongpao, he likes to drink tea when he's fine, so it's the same when he comes to my place."

It is said to be a deposit, but in fact it is no different from giving Shen porridge. Anyway, as long as the Chinese bigwigs come to him and like to drink tea, he will treat them with this tea.

If he runs out of tea here, the charter king will bring it again when he comes next time.

Seeing Shen Congee's skillful tea making movements, Yang Chen asked casually: "Mr. Shen just said that if I don't come up, you will look for me. I don't know why Mr. Shen is looking for me?"

Shen Congee grinned and said, "It's not a big deal, I just want to ask Yang Sheng how he guessed that the Hang Seng Index will fall."

As far as he knows, on the afternoon of July 17th, Yang Chen started shorting the Hang Seng Index. At that time, the news of the bank association’s interest rate hike hadn’t come out yet, which made him very curious. He didn’t understand where the other party got the news, and how to confirm it. The Hang Seng Index will fall.

"If I said, I didn't guess, I just gambled again, would Mr. Shen believe it?"

"Gambling?" Shen Congee's hands paused, and an imperceptible scrutiny flashed across Yang Chen's eyes.

Yang Chen's face paled: "That's right, betting that the Hong Kong dollar will continue to weaken, even if the Bank Association raises interest rates, it won't be able to save it."

Hearing this, Shen Porridge became a little uneasy, frowned and said, "Is Yang Sheng so sure that the bank association's move is useless?"

"If at any other time, at any time, the bank association's interest rate hike can change the situation. After all, Hong Kong's economy itself does not have any problems."

Hearing Yang Chen's words, Shen Porridge smiled wryly. Indeed, the Hong Kong dollar is weak, and everyone transfers their funds abroad to take interest. Apart from the interest rate difference, another one is worried about Xiangjiang's next ownership issue.

Many people did not really want to earn profits there, but more because the British consortium heard some news from London and learned that London did not have much confidence in Xiangjiang.

Under the influence of a group of British capital, everyone also has a tacit understanding of transferring property, and this is just the beginning. Most people think that the weakness of the Hong Kong dollar is due to everyone's arbitrage.

Actually, that's just one of the reasons.

As long as banks raise interest rates, they can control interest rate arbitrage.

It's just that the Hong Kong dollar continues to weaken in later generations, which makes Yang Chen see more than others, but it's not easy for him to say these things in front of the Dapan Wang.

"Then what is Yang Sheng's plan going forward, is it to go back to Daliu, or to gamble again?"

As the bank with the right to issue banknotes in Xiangjiang, HSBC can be said to be the main base of HSBC. Anyone can leave, but HSBC alone cannot.

Once HSBC leaves and loses the right to issue banknotes, HSBC is no different from an ordinary bank. Moreover, with the current economic development in Asia, HSBC can only be regarded as an upper-middle-scale company in the international arena.

The reason why HSBC has become a large international bank in later generations is mainly due to the development of Asia. HSBC has deployed in many developing countries in advance, and has enjoyed the dividends of economic growth along with a number of developing countries.

Now Yang Chen holds nearly [-] billion in cash, which is not a small sum. Any action he makes next will have a considerable impact on HSBC.

Therefore, Shen Porridge really wanted to know what Yang Chen's plans would be next, whether he would follow the example of others and leave, or be optimistic about Xiangjiang's future development and invest heavily.

This is a gamble of the century, the winner is eating meat, and the loser is not even soup.

In the continuous turmoil, the British capital that had occupied Xiangjiang for decades, finally gave everything that he had operated for decades to the Chinese capital.

It can be said that in the next negotiations between China and the UK, the biggest loss is not the Chinese capital, but the British capital. After the defeat of the UK, it is inevitable that the British capital will withdraw from the market.

"As a Xiangjiang person, no matter what happens in Xiangjiang, I will not leave, because this is my root, I will only expand the foundation here, and will not leave for any reason."

"I believe Mr. Shen and HSBC are the same as me."

Hearing that Yang Chen didn't intend to leave, Shen Conge couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

"Yang Sheng can rest assured that the foundation of HSBC Bank is also here. No matter what happens in the future, HSBC Bank will stick to the people of Xiangjiang."

"Hehe" Yang Chen nodded with a smile.

However, I don't feel cold about this in my heart. You can only believe half of what a capitalist says. If you really believe it all, you won't know how you will be cheated to death.

The reason why HSBC did not leave was not that it didn't want to, but that it simply couldn't leave or escape.

HSBC, which holds the right to issue banknotes in Hong Kong, and Standard Chartered are the economic pillars of Hong Kong. Not to mention the inland, even the Governor's Office does not allow HSBC and Standard Chartered to leave.

As the center of Asia, Xiangjiang's every move has a great influence. Leaving HSBC here means breaking its deployment in Asia for many years.

Whether it is itself or above, HSBC is inseparable from Xiangjiang.

Chapter 414

Can't escape, can't escape.

This is why, after entering the late 70s, HSBC, a British bank, will spare no effort to support the Chinese consortium.
