That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 893 Li Ye's Crow Mouth
Tuesday, early morning.

After a good night's sleep, Li Ye got up early, went outside in the corridor to do five minutes of simple exercises, then turned on his mobile phone and called Fu Guiru who was far away in the lighthouse.

But my mother, Fu Guiru, turned off her phone.

"Huh? You're already in your forties or fifties, and you're still angry with me? Hehehehe~"

Li Ye was not panicked at all. Anyway, it was impossible for Fu Guiru to beat him with a rolling pin now.

Besides, since Fu Guiru turned off her phone and went to sleep, the situation at the lighthouse must be good. Otherwise, how could she hang up the phone and fall asleep when she was so anxious and angry?
At half past seven, Lu Zhizhang and others got up to have breakfast, and then prepared to go to Mitsubishi to discuss the subsequent details.

However, while eating, the TV in the restaurant suddenly broadcast news related to the Lighthouse Stock Market.

"The Dow Jones Index closed down 23% and the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of the United States delivered a speech. In order to fulfill its responsibilities as a central bank, the Federal Reserve System will support the normal operation of the economy and financial system and reiterate today that it will ensure the liquidity of the financial system."

The TV broadcast financial content for twenty minutes without a break, which surprised everyone eating in the restaurant.

"Hey, what does this mean? The news from the lighthouse was broadcast on the Japanese TV station for half an hour? Did something big happen?"

"Yes! Um, Deputy Director Li, can you explain to everyone? What happened?"

Li Ye glanced at Gu Jianqi and Secretary Guo, who were pale, and explained, "This is because the Dengta stock market has plummeted, and the Dengta officials have begun to announce that they will invest money to save the market."

"A sharp drop? Eh, a few days ago I remember a Japanese newspaper saying that the Lighthouse would collapse before Japan! It's only been a few days, how could it be so accurate?"

"I told you so. The Japanese economic experts are the best. They said the lighthouse would collapse first, and it did. No wonder the Japanese have overshadowed the lighthouse in recent years."

A few people are talking after the fact without any cost, and they all think that the Japanese are more powerful than the lighthouse.

But Xiao Jingang took a different approach and said, "I remember that newspaper said at the time that the collapse of Dengta's stock market would lead to the collapse of Japan's stock market.

So do you think that Japan will collapse next? If they collapse, will Mitsubishi give us better conditions? "

“It’s possible. Very likely.”

"Deputy Director Xiao is really talented. No wonder Minister Inoue bucked his usual behavior and agreed to all our conditions yesterday!"

"Oh, we agreed too readily yesterday. We must be more cautious and try to trick them to get more benefits for the country."

"."

Ma Zhaoxian and Lu Zhizhang listened to everyone talking about Zhuge Liang and couldn't help but look at Li Ye.

Li Ye said bluntly: "I think the longer the night, the more trouble there is. We need to finalize all the import matters as soon as possible."

"Li Ye, you are too impatient"

"Just do as Li Ye said and finalize all the details as soon as possible."

Ma Zhaoxian did not give others a chance to speak. He made the decision coldly and then glanced at Gu Jianqi.

Among these people, only Gu Jianqi could raise his objections. Although Ma Zhaoxian ignored him, he still had to try to persuade him because of his seniority.

But at this moment, Gu Jianqi was very strange, his eyes were staring blankly, and he was as well-behaved as he could be.

. . . . . . . . . .

Li Ye and others reached a consensus and went straight to Mitsubishi Corporation to complete the final stage of the contract. However, things did not go as planned. After arriving at Mitsubishi Corporation, they waited in the conference room for more than half an hour but did not see Director Inoue come.

"You stupid bastard, you're late again. Looks like you're going to have some problems today!"

"Hey, you say, good things won't come easy, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense. The general direction was already decided yesterday. Can they go back on their word?"

"That's hard to say. The Japanese are not trustworthy."

"."

Ma Zhaoxian and others were getting anxious, so Liu Muhan had to go to Minister Inoue to ask about the situation.

Not long after, Liu Muhan came back and said, "Minister Inoue said our contract is being printed and we need to wait a while."

Ma Zhaoxian said: "The contract is being printed. Doesn't that mean they are preparing to sign the contract?"

"probably!"

Liu Muhan nodded slowly and did not tell Ma Zhaoxian that there seemed to be some chaos on Director Inoue's side. Many employees were not working. They all gathered around a computer and looked at it silently. The atmosphere was very depressing.

"Dingling bell~"

At 9:15, a cell phone suddenly rang in the conference room.

Everyone looked at Li Ye first, and then looked at Gu Jianqi in surprise.

Two people's cell phones ringing at the same time was unusual decades later, and certainly rarer in the 1980s.

Li Ye picked up the phone first, and Fu Guiru's sinister voice rang out from the other end: "What's the matter? Are you awake? Did you sleep well last night?"

Li Ye walked out while smiling and said, "I slept well! You should have slept well too, right? I called you at six this morning, but your phone was turned off and no one answered."

“I didn’t sleep well!”

Fu Guiru said viciously: "Everyone was waiting for your news last night, but you turned off my phone. Do you know what happened last night?"

"Of course I know!" Li Ye said with a smile, "I watched TV this morning. The single-day drop broke the record. I, your son, am so lucky. I am so good at predicting things. You, your mother, are like a general and command with confidence. You should make a lot of money, right?"

"You are indeed very predictable, but my heart almost jumped out of my chest last night and I still feel uncomfortable now."

Fu Guiru's voice was a little hoarse, obviously she was very angry last night.

There is no way. Anyone who sees tens or hundreds of billions of dollars of capital rolling up and down will get angry.

The smiling Li Ye immediately became nervous. Fu Guiru was not young anymore and had suffered a lot in the past. It was possible that she would have complications from early menopause.

"Mom, are you feeling uncomfortable in your heart? Do you have any quick-acting heart medicine?"

"I was mad at you and had a heart attack. Wait, I'm getting on the plane! I'll beat you up when I get there."

"Hey, as long as you can calm down, you can break my legs. I promise I won't hide."

"I wouldn't want to break your legs!"

"Hahahaha~"

Li Ye hung up the phone and walked towards the meeting room with a smile on his face. Then, with the help of his excellent hearing, he vaguely heard Gu Jianqi's angry shouts in the stairwell.

"What deposit? Just give me my money right now. The total is 3.83 million. I don't want the change. Just give me 3.8 million."

"What? You can't sell it now? Are you kidding? You told me very clearly yesterday that you can sell it at any time. Why can't you sell it now?"

"Where can I find your deposit now? Can I do any magic tricks in half an hour?"

"."

Li Ye quietly returned to the meeting room, sat quietly and watched the changes in the situation.

With some people, you can help them by making good connections with them, but with some people, it’s good enough if you don’t kick them in the back.

An hour later, Minister Inoue had not arrived yet, and Gu Jianqi, who had gone out to make a phone call, had not returned either.

Ma Zhaoxian became a little impatient and asked Liu Muhan again to inquire about the details.

This time Liu Muhan found out the truth: "The Japanese stock market has plummeted. Because many employees have invested money in the stock market, people are panicking now, so we have to wait a little longer."

"what?"

Ma Zhaoxian said nervously: "Didn't you say the other day that the stock market goes up and down, and that ups and downs are normal? How can it affect our signing of the contract?"

"this."

Liu Muhan looked at Li Ye helplessly.

Li Ye explained: "Ordinary ups and downs are fine, but if there is an unexpected plunge, it can be fatal."

"Dead? How could someone die? What's the logic behind this?"

Everyone looked at Li Ye in shock, thinking he was exaggerating.

But Li Ye knew clearly that the stock market crash in 1987 led to thousands of Lighthouse employees committing suicide, and the extreme tendency of the Japanese was even stronger and the consequences were more serious.

"Because it's just like borrowing money at usury in the old society. If you lose money that you can't pay back in your lifetime, it's better to end it all once and for all. Every time there's a sharp drop in prices, there are people jumping off the building."

"Li Ye, what you said is too scary. I have seen Japanese people being very polite and civilized these days. How is it possible..."

Xiao Jingang stopped talking halfway through his words.

Because he was sitting facing the window, he saw something falling from the window with a whoosh.

"Someone jumped off the building!"

Following a loud shout, everyone in the conference room ran to the window and stood on tiptoe to look down.

But before they could see clearly what was happening below, another figure fell in front of them, followed by the second and the third.

And the third one looks familiar to everyone.

Xiao Jingang's face turned pale, and he murmured, "Was that Secretary Guo just now?"

Li Ye swallowed his saliva and said in a deep voice: "Yes, it's Secretary Guo."

"You are such a bad guy, hurry up and save people!!!"

Everyone rushed out, but when they reached the stairs, they saw Li Ye running upstairs.

"Li Ye, where are you going? Secretary Guo jumped down."

"He's already dead, we have to save others."

"."

Everyone was stunned. Xiao Jingang's legs went limp and he sat down on the ground with a thud.

Gu Jianqi was invited by their faction, who originally hoped to contain Li Ye's side, but they never expected that he would cause such a big mess.
