That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 887 Li Ye can definitely afford it

The next morning, when Li Ye and others arrived at Mitsubishi Corporation, the other party did not start the talks at the agreed time.

Li Ye was a little puzzled. The Japanese have a strong sense of punctuality. If an accident happened, it would really be an accident.

Liu Muhan and his colleague Xiao Hu went to communicate with someone, and Li Ye and others could only wait helplessly in the conference room.

"Dingling bell~"

Li Ye's cell phone rang.

He took a look, turned around and left the meeting room, finding a secluded corner.

"Hey, did you find out?"

"Hey, how can we not find out what the top scholar told us? Did they really exchange 2.8 million foreign currencies for us?"

"Two million and eight hundred thousand dollars? Old Song, this is a big deal, isn't it?"

"No, no, you misunderstood, Mr. Zhuangyuan. It was 2.8 million RMB, and we exchanged it at a ratio of 1 to 7.5. We agreed that if I exchange it back, I would only deduct 5 points."

"Has the money arrived?"

"It was delivered in Beijing yesterday afternoon, and last night they urgently asked Chu Yunling to buy Mitsubishi Heavy Industries futures for them immediately."

Li Ye was surprised and asked, "Are you in such a hurry? Have you bought it already?"

Old Song on the other end of the phone was also stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said: "Zhuangyuanlang, do you want to stop them from buying, or..."

Li Ye was silent for a few seconds, then said calmly, "Old Song, don't expect to get anything out of me."

"Oh, don't worry, Mr. Zhuangyuan. Chu Yunling bought it for them early this morning."

"."

This guy Old Song is smarter than a monkey. Since Li Ye didn't stop him, that means he agrees, right?
Flower growers like to find something wrong with others so that they can use it at will later, so why don’t they help the top scholar to cause trouble?

"Oh, hang up!"

Li Ye hung up the phone and shook his head helplessly. He totally didn't understand what was wrong with Gu Jianqi and why he was so anxious to jump into the fire pit.

The Monkey King entered the alchemy furnace but was tricked into it by Laozi!
In fact, Li Ye, who came from later generations, still underestimated the desire and greed for money of these people in the 1980s.

When Lai, the tycoon from Xiamen, founded Yuanhua in the early 1990s, he made friends with those well-known people, and his entry fee was only one or two years' salary.

It’s just one or two years’ salary!

If it's decades later, you want to establish a relationship with me for a year's salary?

Who are you slandering? Even the production team leader can't afford to lose face like this, okay?
But in 1987, gift-giving became a trend. A bag of cigarettes and alcohol could get things done, and there were many cases where tens of thousands of dollars could make people stunned.

Therefore, the temptation of money in this era is much stronger than it will be decades later. Even talented women like Liu Muhan are thinking about whether to bring some good stuff and make a little fortune when returning to the mainland from Tokyo.

If 2.8 million can increase by more than a dozen percent, it will definitely make people excited. If it can double, even the king of heaven can't stop it!
. . . . . . . .

Half an hour later, Liu Muhan and Minister Inoue came to the meeting room.

Minister Inoue bowed deeply at 75 degrees as soon as he entered the room, and then apologized sincerely: "I am really sorry, some emergencies suddenly occurred today, so our meeting can only be postponed to next week.
To express our apologies, we have arranged a one-day tour in Tokyo for everyone. Where would you like to visit? "

"."

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment; they didn't expect to be stood up today.

But then everyone started to talk about the places they wanted to visit. Some said they wanted to go to Mount Fuji, some said they wanted to go to Tokyo Tower, and some said they wanted to visit the Imperial Palace.

Minister Inoue smiled and said, "It's okay. We can arrange a few more cars to go to your favorite places. We will definitely meet your needs."

Everyone's mood immediately improved. These days, when traveling, it is important to take more photos to bring back.

But Secretary Guo suddenly said, "Let's go visit the Tokyo Futures Exchange first to learn about Japan's economic situation, okay?"

Inoue was stunned for a moment, then smiled proudly and said, "Of course, the Tokyo Futures Exchange is a magical place, it is well worth a visit."

“Then we’ll go too.”

"Yes, yes, yes, what's so good about a mountain? I've seen it on the calendar. Let's go and see something new!"

The people who had their own preferences just now surprisingly agreed on the same opinion, which made Secretary Guo and Gu Jianqi frown, but they could do nothing about it.

Everyone took several cars and went to the futures exchange together, and then they saw the modern big screen.

"Are the numbers above the stocks and futures?"

"What do these red and green ones represent? Some of them don't move for a long time, while some of them jump very fast!"

"Red means up, green means down. The up number is a percentage, which means today's up and down percentage is how much compared to yesterday."

"Oh, so that 36% red, does it mean that today's price is 36% higher than yesterday's? Oh my God, how do we buy it? Can we buy it?"

"Tsk, do you have money? Do you have foreign exchange? Just take a look."

"."

Everyone was mesmerized by the constantly jumping red numbers and calculated how much return they could get tomorrow if they invested 100 yuan.

But Li Ye looked at these colorful numbers quietly, and knew that this thing was really man-eating.

Liu Muhan saw that Li Ye was very quiet and thought that he was worried about the interruption of today's negotiations, so he came over to comfort him.

"The people from Mitsubishi said that a technical team suddenly came from the branch factory in Dengta today and there are very urgent issues that need to be resolved, so our meeting can only be postponed to Monday. Now the Japanese dare not neglect the people in Dengta."

"Yes! They don't dare to neglect the lighthouse people, so they neglect us!" "Li Ye, don't be angry. You are an economics student. You should know that the Japanese took the same path as us decades ago."

"Why should I be angry?" Li Ye smiled and said, "You don't have to comfort me all the time. I understand Japanese people better than you do."

"Just brag! I'm not Xiaoyu, do you have the nerve to emphasize the dignity of a man to me?"

"Hey, have you seen this?"

"Of course, don't play tricks on me, little guy."

Is Li Ye bragging?
He really isn't bragging.

In his previous life, one of Li Ye's classmates worked for a German company in Shanghai. The German company had business dealings with Japan, so they often sent him to Japan for work.

The Japanese were very polite to Li Ye's classmates. They always arranged food, drinks and accommodation for them, and gave them small gifts. Li Ye's classmates also reciprocated by giving them preferential treatment within their authority.

But one time, Li Ye's classmate did not go due to personal matters, so another German colleague went instead. After coming back, he exchanged experiences with Li Ye's classmate.

"How many girls in the stupid client's company have you touched?"

"What do you mean? How many did you touch?"

Li Ye's classmates were very puzzled. After an in-depth discussion with his German colleagues, they found out that they had the same level and the same business trip mission, but their treatment was so different.

The female colleague in the Japanese client's company clearly stated that she could help her German colleagues relieve work fatigue.

"I'm fucked up, who the hell am I supposed to be?"

From then on, Li Ye's classmates could do whatever disgusting things they wanted within the scope of their authority until they beat the other party to the point of ecstasy and submission.

So, it’s not that the Japanese can’t afford to offend the lighthouse people, but they bow their heads and behave themselves in front of the West, but look up to the sky in front of the East.

I will feel uncomfortable if I don’t clean up.

“It’s going up, it’s going up, look.”

Li Ye's keen hearing caught Secretary Guo's excited breathing.

He turned his head and found that Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' futures suddenly jumped upwards as if it had been injected with chicken blood. It rose by seven or eight points in just a few minutes, and there was no sign of stopping.

Gu Jianqi, who had been calm and serious, also had his face flushed with excitement, as if the constantly beating red color was connected to his heart.

Liu Muhan asked curiously, "Li Ye, have you noticed that Mr. Gu seems to be very interested in stocks and futures? Is there any rumor about a stock trial in our mainland?"

Li Ye smiled and said, "You don't know, how can I know?"

Liu Muhan glared at Li Ye and said, "Aren't you from the Economics Department? Your teacher has close ties with our Economics Department. How could any rumor escape your ears?"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't guess blindly! Don't talk about things like this casually."

"Tsk, I can't make it through with you. I'll go ask Xiaoyu later. If you have the guts, you can even hide it from Xiaoyu."

"."

While Li Ye and Liu Muhan were chatting here, Gu Jianqi and Secretary Guo were already glaring over there with red eyes.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' futures continued to rise, and finally stopped at 38 percent.

Li Ye murmured, "They don't know how to hedge, they only buy when prices go up, not when prices go down, right?"

. . . . . . .

Li Ye didn't know how Secretary Guo and his team operated, nor did he know whether Chu Yunling had any professional traders, but he knew that Secretary Guo and his team made a lot of money today and became a little too proud of themselves.

After dinner, everyone returned to the hotel, and soon after, Secretary Guo knocked on Li Ye’s door again.

Li Ye thought he was here to borrow the phone to communicate with his family again! But he saw Secretary Guo also took out a mobile phone.

"Mr. Gu's Japanese friend sent him a mobile phone. Li Ye, can you help me try to get through?"

"."

A few minutes later, everyone in the inspection team learned about Gu Lao's Japanese friend and sent a mobile phone for Gu Lao to use.

Everyone came over and fiddled with the two mobile phones. One phone called that phone, and that phone called this phone. Listening to the tinkling sounds of the phones ringing, they all marveled at the magic.

"Pay attention! The call can only ring, but not be connected. If the call is connected, you will be charged."

"Oh, I know. One of our colleagues' children is studying abroad. He calls home every weekend night. If he hangs up after the ringing lasts ten seconds, it means everything is fine."

"Li Ye, when do you think we can use this kind of mobile phone like the Japanese?"

"."

"It's almost time! It seems that since the year before last, our capital has been studying the opening of mobile communications. This year, Pengcheng will open it first, and the capital will probably not be behind for a few months!"

"Wow, then we can also use this kind of phone then?"

"You're dreaming! You can't even afford a pager now, but by then a mobile phone will be sold to you for at least 7,000 or 8,000 yuan. Can you afford it?"

"Seven or eight thousand, who would they sell it to? Who can afford it?"

Xiao Jingang suddenly said quietly: "I don't know if others can afford it, but our Deputy Director Li can definitely afford it. After all, a Santana worth one or two hundred thousand is affordable for him."

Everyone looked at Li Ye with complicated expressions.

But Secretary Guo held the phone in his hand with a disdainful smile on his face.
