Chapter 550: $300 Billion
Chapter 550: US$300 billion
But the old saying goes, "Although the world is safe, forgetting the war will lead to danger." Peace requires even more force to support it. In the past few years, we were immersed in the atmosphere of peace and forget that there were many imperialists around us who "die my heart to die". It was not until the "Galaxy Incident" and "The bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia made the Chinese people that everyone knew that we should never relax our vigilance.
The country has begun to consider building strategic oil reserves, which is a valuable signal sent to meet the new international situation. Now that the central government has made a decision, Yang Xing is of course happy to see it.
Yang Xing suggested that the country launch a new round of strategic reserves after careful consideration. When he was a child, he wrote in his textbook that China was a country with "large land and abundant resources". When he grew up, he understood the domestic resource reserves in detail and then distributed them to a huge population base, but came to a completely opposite conclusion. We are a country with extremely poor resources. If we do not face this reality, we are now consciously protecting and reserve domestic precious resources, and we are afraid that the next generation will face the danger of resource exhaustion and being expelled from the earth's ball.
This is not an alarmist statement. Just looking at the materials provided by the national statistical departments, you will know that my country's per capita arable land area is less than half of the world average, and its oil reserves are less than one-third of that of the United States. If my country's per capita oil consumption catches up with the United States, it is estimated that China's oil supply in the world will not be able to meet the needs. In terms of the lifeline data related to a country's future development, due to the huge population of the country, my country's per capita level can only rank behind in the world.
In contrast, the only countries in the international world that can claim to be a country with great land and wealth are probably Russia, the United States, Australia and other countries, but the Americans have legislation on the rich offshore oil resources on the coast of Alaska to prohibit exploration and exploitation. The publicity on the surface is to protect the environment, but privately considers it as a strategic reserve for their descendants. The story of the neighboring Japan importing high-quality anthracite from my country and sinking to offshore as a strategic resource reserve is well known. The so-called "no long-term thinking" must have immediate worries. The country considers establishing its own strategic reserve system. In addition to dealing with war, it is also a matter of leaving a way out for its descendants.
Yang Xing was very confident about his advice to the central government to establish national reserves. As long as anyone with insight knows that this step will be gone sooner or later. For this reason, he greeted his partners in Beijing before entering Beijing, and made arrangements for Xingwei Resources to join forces with them to join the rare earth, nickel, oil, natural gas and other resource industries as soon as possible. As long as they penetrate into these basic resource industries, they can not only cheer for the national construction strategic reserves, but also gain great business opportunities from it.
There are many strategic resources in China with huge reserves in the world, but due to disorderly competition and insufficient international experience, they cannot exchange the advantages of a large number of resources for reasonable returns. After the establishment of the national strategic reserve system, the management of domestic strategic resources will definitely be strengthened, which will greatly contribute to the control of resource exports and the formation of price alliances by domestic resource enterprises.
In addition to controlling resource prices and becoming an international bulk resource commodity, once the international bulk commodity prices fluctuate violently, the national strategic reserve system can also play the role of a breakwater to support resource enterprises. Last year, Americans used the oil strategic reserve wheel storage system to make a perfect demonstration.
After receiving the information from Cheng Canghai, Yang Xing was relieved and his determination to do a big fight in the resource market became increasingly firm. But looking at Cheng Canghai's face that had just been in office for a few years, he knew that he was indeed worthy of being a capable minister who was dedicated to the country and the people, and thought about his tolerance for not talking about state affairs after resigning, he felt that he was unhappy.
Cheng Canghai saw that Yang Xing had something to say. After years of observation, he felt that although Yang Xing was not good at the small matter, he still made great achievements in the principles and major issues involving national interests. Especially his patriotism is indisputable. His contribution to the country is no less than that of many national heroes who have been praised. To him, Yang Xing was more like him looking at his growing disciple, so he encouraged him to speak out: "What conspiracy are you doing? I have said it. As long as it does not harm the national interests, you are not afraid to speak out, let me listen."
Yang Xing hesitated and did not dare to leak "911". After all, this already involves the national strategic intelligence level. Moreover, he did not know what would happen if the central government learned about this major event. If the butterfly effect brought by Americans would be prepared early, all his plans would be wasted. At the same time, he had to consider the impact of this intelligence on the national intelligence agencies, so although he wanted to share the pressure for Cheng Canghai, he did not hand over all his trump cards.
He just described his "keen business instinct" and combined with the numerous information collected by his subordinates, and concluded that the US economy will fall into recession again in the second half of this year. Taking this opportunity to enter the US stock market, shorting the US stock market is undoubtedly a godsend opportunity. To obtain enough profits, huge capital investment is required, of course, accompanied by great risks, but wealth and honor are in danger, high risks will inevitably have high returns. If the central government is willing to invest in Yang Xing's plan, once successful, the high returns obtained will surely alleviate the country's great financial pressure.
Cheng Canghai didn't doubt Yang Xing's words too much. Yang Xing's business talent no longer needs to be doubted. His achievements were accumulated bit by bit. The business intelligence network owned by Yang Xing was not surprising to obtain information about the weakness of the US economy. After all, the military has asked Yang Xing for help several times, which shows that he is sensitive to his eyes and ears. As for this plan and Yang Xing's plan to exchange intelligence for help from the military and intelligence units in order to go public in Hong Kong, he made them make a fortune, which was like a decent thing. It didn't sound surprising.
"Then how much do you want to help you in China this time? I heard that you have a big appetite now. Last year, I joined hands with bankers on Wall Street in the United States to make money, and it is often calculated from one billion dollars." Cheng Canghai was a little dissatisfied with Yang Xing's proposal. Even if it exceeds tens of billions of dollars, it is a drop in the bucket for the domestic dilemma, so he just asked Yang Xing quizzically, but when he saw the number he handed over on the note he handed it out, it suddenly stopped, and it said "300 billion dollars"
Cheng Canghai finally woke up from the shock of seeing this number for a while. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. He thought that this kid would calm down after getting married and starting a business, but he didn't expect to give him a big surprise. He remembered the information just reported by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange that my country's foreign exchange reserves were less than 170 billion US dollars in January, which was only more than half of what Yang Xing asked for. Even if he sacrificed his life and gave it to Yang Xing, it was not enough, but he believed that Yang Xing would give him an explanation.
"Actually, according to the plan, I can't get so much. My minimum goal this time is to make $100 billion. However, although there is insider information, it is difficult to do without leaving enough strength. Besides, you must be prepared for failure. Preparing for 3 times of funds is just a rainy day." Yang Xing slowly explained why so much funds are needed.
"I started planning this matter very early, and now I have attracted a lot of people to join. Although it is a distance from the target, it is not a big problem to be reached in time. Now I just want to see what you mean. I am considering using my shares as collateral. Will there be a domestic unit dare to take over?" Yang Xingyouran asked.
This time, he made many preparations to let his friends and partners join him. In addition, he also needs to find a way in the overseas financial market, but the most important thing is to rely on his own strength. Yang Xing's biggest bargaining chip is tantamount to Zhongxing International's assets. The shares and many patents of its "all directions" are jealous property. If he really wants to make a bet, there should be no problem in raising hundreds of billions of dollars. With the amplification effect of financial leverage, he can do it alone.
But this is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst. Yang Xing wanted to make money, but in his early years, he was willing to spend his family's wealth and decide the outcome in a battle. Moreover, he did not have the idea of taking all the 1,000 US dollars of profits, which would have to end him. Even if he succeeded, the Americans would definitely investigate the behavior of cracking down on the stock market. Yang Xing did not intend to do a one-time deal and end it. He had great achievements in the United States waiting to explore.
So he invited Cheng Canghai, in addition to giving central enterprises a chance to make money, he was to join forces with more people to fight to death. Yang Xing's goal was to kill the master. In addition to domestic, he also hoped to pull some big fish abroad, so the better the water became better. Hearing that Yang Xing actually wanted to use his own company's shares as collateral and issue corporate bonds and other means, Cheng Canghai finally became interested.
Zhongxing International is now almost the only Chinese brand that can be remembered by foreigners in the world, and the beautiful performance it delivers every year is regarded as a hot investment by investors. If Yang Xing is willing to mortgage part of his shares to issue bonds and transfer, there must be many people who are willing to take over. As long as Yang Xing is in one day, in the eyes of investors, Zhongxing International's shares are undoubtedly guaranteed.
Now, according to Yang Xing's meaning, it is better to be cheaper than to be cheaper than to be cheaper than to be a foreigner. It uses Zhongxing International's shares as collateral in exchange for foreign exchange and state-owned enterprises and other departments to join. The risks are but compared with the returns obtained, it seems that this plan is not too crazy.
"You are taking risks with your wealth. Are you really sure?" Cheng Canghai thought carefully and thought that this matter could be operated. However, compared to the central government's discussion, Yang Xing took a greater risk. He thought he should remind him that he is worth billions of wealth and his wife is full of houses. There is no need to take risks again. Yang Xing smiled and replied, "This is probably the last time. I want to earn enough living expenses before my children are born. If I win the title of the world's richest man in the future, I will never blame my father for being incompetent."
