Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

Until the Plaza Accord, affected by the appreciation of the yen, Japan’s export competitiveness began to be severely hit. Immediately after the bubble economy was punctured, the island country fell into economic stagnation for 20 years.

A large part of the economic circles of the island countries in later generations believed that the Plaza Accord was a terrifying conspiracy laid by the Americans to bring down the Japanese economy.

The reason is that since the Plaza Accord in the economy of the island country, there has been a gap of several times in the economic GDP of the United States and Japan, and the GDP has been greatly widened.

With the appreciation of the yen, Yang Chen made plans two years in advance, and he will soon be able to reap rich fruits. After the global capital continues to flock to the island country due to the sharp appreciation of the yen, he can take advantage of the situation and retreat.

With global capital paying for him, he can leave at a high price

If the big consortiums in the island country are willing to eat back what they sold to him before, then the economy of the island country will probably be hit harder than in the previous life by the economic bubble.

Several big consortiums in the island nation in later generations, taking advantage of the appreciation of the yen, bought and bought all over the world, and their overseas net assets were almost blown out of the sky at the beginning of the 21st century.

The core of the island country’s overseas assets is actually in the hands of consortiums like Sumitomo. As long as their losses are greater, when the island country’s bubble economy collapses, their overseas assets will also shrink greatly.

In addition to the appreciation of the yen, he can make a lot of money, and after a few years when Wall Street financial institutions short the island country's currency, he can make another profit.

Prince Charles is now earning a small amount of money with him, maximizing the benefits of the small money and putting the British royal family at the forefront. No matter how the deal is calculated, it is very cost-effective.

If Prince Charles knew what Yang Chen was thinking at this time, he would probably yell at him. Of course, what he scolded was not that Yang Chen used the brand of the British royal family, but that Yang Chen looked down on the little money he earned.

This time the Plaza Agreement, the appreciation of the yen, in just a few days, based on the book calculation, it has almost caught up with the money Yang Chen made for Prince Charles during the Falklands War.

For Prince Charles, this is definitely not a small fortune.

Hearing Yang Chen talk about the appreciation of the yen, this is just the beginning. Prince Charles thought of the data discussed with several British economists before. Just as Yang Chen thought, there is still a lot of room for the appreciation of the yen. uncertainty.

This uncertainty mainly comes from the United States, as well as the direction of global capital. Europe and the United States pursue a free economy. Since modern times, island countries have been trying their best to get rid of their identity as an Asian country, and they have been pursuing a free economy. .

Under a free economy, it is difficult to control the capital market. Since the appreciation of the yen is already doomed, there will not be much change.

As for even how much, that's a variable.

If there is still a lot of room for the appreciation of the yen, Prince Charles naturally doesn’t mind following Yang Chen to make more money. As for Yang Chen’s misjudgment, the appreciation of the yen is controlled by the island government, so they can’t lose money, at most That is, earn less.

Putting aside the appreciation of the yen, Prince Charles pretended to be casual and asked, "Yang, I heard that you spent two years in Australia building a new Darwin port?"

"You're quite well-informed." Yang Chen turned his head and glanced at Prince Charles, thinking that the British royal family's attention to him was really exhausting.

After thinking about it, Yang Chen explained: "At the beginning of the month, the new port has officially opened for navigation. It's not a big deal, so I didn't inform the prince."

Hearing Yang Chen's explanation, Prince Charles smiled, and exposed Yang Chen's lies.

In terms of the entire Northern Territory, the location of Darwin Port is definitely the best. Yang Chen rebuilding a port is tantamount to unnecessary actions.

However, from Yang Chen's series of planning and layout in the Northern Territory, Prince Charles also knows what the other party is thinking about.

Near Darwin Port, there are not only Australian troops stationed, but also US military bases. If no new port is built, the import and export will be in the hands of others.

Yang Chen had always wanted to acquire the ownership of Darwin Port before, but the Australian government was unwilling, and only agreed to Yang Chen's capital contribution to expand the construction of Darwin Port.

Facing the uncontrollable Darwin Port, Yang Chen had no choice but to choose to build a new port near a large mine near the sea, using the excuse of convenient transportation as an excuse.

The investment ratio between the construction of a port and the construction of a railway that is not too long is not directly proportional. For this reason, not only the Australian government opposed it, but many local officials in the Northern Territory also opposed it.

In the end, it was passed because of the secret help of the British government.

From later generations until the 21st century, there are still a large number of young people who are interested in the United Kingdom in the former British colonies, let alone this period, especially among the immigrants in Australia, many of whom are descendants of the British.

As the influence of the United Kingdom in the international status is gradually declining, Australia has begun to move closer to the United States, hugging the thighs of the Americans. In many cases, the words of the Americans are more effective than the words of the British government.

Regarding this change in the Australian government, the UK naturally cannot sit idly by. Now Yang Chen is trying his best to get closer to the UK, and he is fighting fiercely with the British royal family. A state in Australia is only a matter of time, so the influence of the Northern Territory will be manifested by then.

The less restrictions Yang Chen receives in the Northern Territory, the greater the influence he will have in the Northern Territory in the future, and it can also play a certain role in Australia's decision-making.

Chapter 919

From the signing of the Plaza Agreement and the appreciation of the yen, some of the media that reported on Yang Chen's investment failure suddenly lost their voices.

The villain tricks of several big consortiums in the island country failed to achieve what they wished, and Yang Chen couldn't help them at all. Although the several big consortiums were unhappy, they didn't want to make the relationship with Yang Chen too stiff.

Yang Chen is now backed by Britain. The so-called skinny camel is bigger than a horse, not to mention that Britain and the United States sometimes wear the same pair of pants. It is impossible for the island government to deliberately trouble Yang Chen because of normal business transactions.

You must know that the economy of the island country depends to a large extent on exports. If you do not obey the rules, you must first have the strength to be unruly.

The later generations will punish whoever they want to fight and sanction whomever they want, relying on their strong strength,

And the island country, at best, can only bully South Korea.

In two months, the yen appreciated by more than 20.00%.

Based on the book value alone, Yang Chen made a net profit of more than 200 billion US dollars in these two months.

The speed at which things reversed was comparable to a roller coaster, and those media who had made trouble before were severely slapped.

Two months

More than 200 billion US dollars,

Converted into Hong Kong dollars, that is a small 2000 billion!

The speed of making money can catch up with the money printing machine.

As Yang Chen's headquarters, Xiangjiang's media naturally gave them overwhelming praise. Some bigwigs who had Yang Chen's phone number continued to congratulate one or two.

There are quite a few people who didn't listen to Yang Chen's opinion at the beginning, but now that they see Yang Chen making money, they feel regretful and want to slap themselves.

Among them is Li Chaoren. In the past two years, Li Chaoren has devoted all his energy to Hutchison Whampoa. Since Yang Chen holds a large share in Hutchison Whampoa and Cheung Kong Industrial, Li Chaoren , has been secretly absorbing the stocks of its two companies.

There is no way, Yang Chen's methods of dealing with Jardine are vivid in his memory. Li Chaoren was really scared. He was afraid that that day, the foundation he had worked so hard to create, Hutchison Whampoa, which he finally got, would suddenly become someone else's. industry.

Therefore, Li Chaoren, who has always been cautious, turned all the money in his hands into the stocks of his own company.

At the beginning, Li Chaoren didn't pay much attention to Yang Chen's suggestion of investing in the island country, or he didn't have so much energy to think about other things.

Li Chaoren's character has always been very cautious, especially when it comes to business investment, he listens to other people's suggestions, but if he wants to take action, he will definitely understand it carefully in advance.

If he didn't understand, he wouldn't touch it even if it was a profitable business.

However, seeing how much Yang Chen made all of a sudden, Li Chaoren, like everyone else, was extremely jealous.

Most of the tycoons in Xiangjiang basically started from scratch in their early years, and the foundations created by hard work for most of their lives were not even able to catch up with others in the end.

I have to say, sometimes, comparing people to people can really piss people off.

The Oriental Daily, one of the best in Xiangjiang, has recently directly listed the worth statistics of the top ten rich Chinese in Xiangjiang (except Yang Chen).

In the end, the big guy found out that the so-called top ten richest people, all of them were worth all together, and they couldn't even match Yang Chen's gains in the past two months.
