Winner Takes It All, Resurrection 2009
Chapter 738: The world is full of people seeking profit
Qingyun acted quickly, and the most direct reaction was the Siamese and Malayan government offices, which publicly expressed their intention to bring in Uncle Maoer from the Six Gates of the Dongda University to go deep into the mainland to assist in inspections.
This is almost equivalent to telling American capital that the core strength of Dongda Capital has already intervened and it is too late to stop it.
After all, this is the doorstep of the University of Tokyo. It’s a two-way street, so why should American capital interfere?
Unless he uses his last trump card, he can only watch as the University of Tokyo steps in completely and becomes the new chess player who actually leads half of Southeast Asia.
Soon after, the Fifth Military Governor's Office of the East China University of Political Science and Law publicly disclosed its foreign sales in 2012. That series of zeros greatly stimulated traditional American capital.
However, no matter how they threatened or bribed, Siam and Malaya did not respond positively. The American capital had no choice but to use its traditional three-pronged approach.
The problem is that the media group that now holds the core voice in Malaya has already cooperated with Qingyun. Coupled with the convenient Internet advantage of WeChat technology, the two sides are fighting back and forth, making it very lively.
American capital, which has always been successful in manipulating the global market and public opinion together with Wall Street, is destined to suffer a loss this time because the internal comprador group is constrained by huge interest rates and does not stand on their side.
Even the CIA, which has always been a pioneer, lost more than half of its ability to stir up trouble in the face of Qingyun's massive amount of US dollars.
“Nonsense, there must be something fishy going on here, Master, you are responsible. It is the uncontrollable nature of your Bitcoin currency trading platform that makes it difficult to track and trace transactions today.
We even used the massive data analysis and tracking of the global monetary settlement system, but we were unable to find the financial transactions of those key Southeast Asian figures who stood up and expressed their views at critical moments.
Without evidence, we cannot manipulate them to change the current unfavorable situation, and we can only watch our interests slip away. This is absolutely unacceptable, and you must find a way to solve it. "
Facing the blame-shifting by Tim of Bank of America, Master pouted and retorted, “If it weren’t for your greed, we would now have shares in Hong Kong and Singapore’s Bitcoin trading platforms.
Tesla has already got it, how could it be so passive?
Besides, you didn’t get the benefit of the skyrocketing Bitcoin price? Oh, when you enjoy its convenience, it’s all your own credit.
Now that you are being used by that little guy on the other side of the ocean, you have to attack the decentralized nature of Bitcoin. If you have the ability, use all the Bitcoins in your hands to crash the market to show your determination!"
Tim was speechless for a moment. Ever since Bitcoin was linked to gold, the whole world has gradually begun to accept this trading method.
After all, this kind of confidentiality is extremely high, it can be exchanged through offline carriers without anyone noticing, the currency is stable and has high value, and its unreplicable decentralized attributes make everyone crazy about it.
Various forces from South America, Africa, Asia, Europe and the United States fell in love with it in an instant, and now almost every offline transaction is inseparable from it.
Some people and groups are trying to replicate this opportunity, but before an agreement is reached on the distribution of benefits, no one can easily get rid of the convenient coverage network of Bitcoin currency.
Even Tim knows that the future of this currency will continue to rise. Even if he is crazy and wants to sell it, the shareholders of Bank of America behind him will not watch him push his profits away.
Maybe before Bitcoin collapses, his own job will be destroyed first.
But the matter had to be done, so he could only bite the bullet and said, "You think of a way, at most I will provide you with all the necessary help in the issue of Tesla settling in Shanghai.
The prerequisite is that you must obtain evidence of Bitcoin transactions in the core economies of Southeast Asia. Without this, it is difficult for us to catch them through internal rules. "
Master was anxious, "Are you crazy? Even if I can get this data, I will never dare to make it public. This will destroy the entire credit system and involve huge interests of tens of billions of dollars.
What's more, when it is traded offline, it will not leave any traces in the trading center. The most we can collect is the cash-out transaction fee after it has been laundered seven or eight times, and we want to trace it back to the source.
Unless Qingyun is willing to cooperate actively.
You are a fool, but I am not."
Faced with the ridicule, Tim went crazy, “But now Wall Street has no threat to Southeast Asian economies in terms of public opinion. If they want to stir up trouble internally, they don’t even have a suitable spokesperson.
Destroying foreign exchange reserves and forcing several economies to repay U.S. debts ahead of schedule would have a huge impact. Moreover, I have heard that Malaya and Siam borrowed hundreds of billions of dollars in foreign exchange from somewhere.
They are ready for a falling out, and once U.S. capital starts to withdraw in large numbers, Dongda Capital, which holds a huge amount of U.S. dollars, will enter the market without hesitation to take over.
So there's no threat to them at all, damn it!
When will the University of Tokyo develop such a strong industrial manufacturing capability that we won't be able to put up any decent resistance even at the low and mid-end, including everything including technical equipment.
It’s terrifying that Dongda Capital can meet the development needs of Southeast Asian economies. We don’t even have the ability to fight back!
In particular, it has signed strategic cooperation agreements with Singapore's DBS Bank and several large state-owned banks in Southeast Asia. At critical moments, they can even receive direct foreign exchange support from Southeast Asia's central bank.
My God, the thought of fighting a financial exchange rate war with a behemoth on the other side of the ocean that controls 7 or 8 trillion US dollars will cause Wall Street to collapse. It will be difficult for us to win. "
"Don't think about sending an aircraft carrier. This will not do us any good. Once we anger it, our only remaining Southeast Asian interests will disappear. You don't want to see the worst outcome, do you?
Therefore, it is very important to stop loss in time. "
Master is not a madman. He is a businessman who values profits the most. The profits given by Dongda Capital and Qingyun Group have already made him quite satisfied. He has no motivation to ask for more.
Especially when you don't have equal resources, you should keep a low profile.
Only Tim was unwilling to accept this, "Shit, are we just going to watch them making tons of money in Southeast Asia while we can only get a small share?
Since when did even the most powerful American capital have to do things according to other people's wishes?
If this gets out, will I still be able to gain the necessary respect in the future?"
“Please, it was you who wanted to limit the scale of Dongda Capital’s core investment in the United States. Now that we have lost our spokesperson within Dongda, we don’t have many trump cards to use.
For example, except for the last resort, we can't cause any fundamental harm to them at all. Don't you understand?
If Dongda Capital continues to maintain a low presence in Europe and the United States, it will become increasingly difficult for us to control them in the future.
Believe me, if we take over Qingyun's market shares in Europe and the United States and make it bigger and stronger, we will be the ones who make the most money. As for the rest, Qingyun can forget about taking it all.
Just like what we did with the big cat, only if it has huge economic interests in Europe and the United States will it act in line with us on key issues.
If they don’t obey, we can freeze hundreds of billions of dollars of wealth in an instant. The owners of these fortunes are all big shots who hold the power of speech in various industries!
In order to protect their own interests, they will try every possible means to get ahead of the big cat's internal decision-making, forcing it to make decisions that are beneficial to American capital and fully respect our interests on a global scale.
However, Bank of America could have supported the construction of South America's major transportation arteries, and could have acquired most of Qingyun's shares in Europe and the United States exactly as planned, at a very low cost.
By then, by replicating their success in the East, they will be able to easily gain market share. The more profits they make, the greater the interests of Qingyun and Dongda Capital in Europe and the United States.
When its scale reaches hundreds of billions of dollars, why would Qingyun dare to risk angering us and go against American capital? "
What Master didn't know was that Li Zehua didn't care about money or influence in Europe and the United States at all, because Qingyun had too much and he didn't care about the former at all.
As for influence, haha, it’s enough for this thing to have a sense of presence. It is nothing but a pipe dream to want to establish a core base exclusively for the University of Tokyo in Europe and the United States by economic means alone.
Li Zehua is not a three-year-old child. Many of Qingyun’s allies, including him, are deeply aware of a fact, that is, if they want to force Europe and the United States to obey, they can only have powerful strength that crushes everything!
Qingyun will always adhere to this view today and in the future: only the University of Tokyo is strong enough to challenge the world alone (with the addition of a Southeast Asian base, it will be easier to achieve the goal).
Only then will Europe and the United States sit down and listen to the voice from the East.
Therefore, Qingyun has handed over the controlling rights of many of its businesses in Europe and the United States to large European and American groups in exchange for their concessions in other areas. Now American capital wants to eat the fat meat but does not want to take responsibility, which Qingyun is certainly not happy about, so there is this dispute.
Since Master wanted something from Qingyun, of course he had to try his best to compromise. But Tim wanted more, but had no urgent need, so he acted superior.
In the form of alms, they tried to suppress the Qingyun Group, but ended up suffering a severe backlash. The original plan of following Dongda Capital to make a big bite in Southeast Asia was ruthlessly shattered.
The traditional American capital behind Bank of America is completely panicked. There is no opportunity to make a move at the moment, and they want to make up for it but are unwilling to do so, so they keep picking and choosing.
It seems that the only way out is compromise. Just as Master said, if you want others to bow their heads, you have to hold their fatal handle.
There is no profit, who will listen to you?
Tim thought about it again and again, and said tentatively: "Perhaps we can continue to discuss the exchange of equity interests, but it may not be so easy to introduce Dongda Capital to South America."
"I'm afraid you're the only fool who's still in the dark. As far as I know, Steven, the vice president of California Petroleum, flew secretly to Venezuela yesterday to start negotiations.
Qingyun Group also sent its global business group president, Mr. Zhichao Yang, to Peru, and the two sides may have already met and started talks."
Of course, the news was leaked to Master deliberately by Qingyun Group, in order to thwart the plans of some shameless people through his mouth.
For example, California Petroleum, which is clearly on the same side as Koch Group and Texas Energy, firmly opposes the intervention of Eastern capital in South American interests, but California Petroleum has suffered heavy losses in shale oil projects.
He immediately turned around and sought cooperation with Qingyun. If he could take advantage of the critical moment when Oumeng Capital was withdrawing from South America, he could successfully acquire Venezuela's cheap energy whose mining cost did not exceed US$10.
California oil is crazy, so it would stick to shale oil at $45 per barrel and give up digging a hole to generate an endless supply and contribute to the Venezuelan market for black energy.
Especially behind it, the two oil giants, Qingyun Energy and Nandian Energy, are each waving huge purchase orders worth hundreds of billions of dollars every year, which makes people drool no matter how you look at it.
Even the Koch Group, which has always clamored that it would never cooperate, secretly sent people to Shanghai to discuss energy procurement with Li Zehua.
After all, even if it cannot take over the Venezuelan energy market, the Koch Group still controls part of the Gulf oil resources, as well as Caribbean offshore oil, and other chemical energy products.
We can all cooperate long-term.
When it comes to making money, people say no but their bodies are very honest. For example, when the representative of Koch Group saw the president of Texas Energy Group visiting them in person in the reception room of Qingyun headquarters.
They just smiled at each other, and then pretended not to see each other. How embarrassing! A few days ago, the two companies were still clamoring that they would never compromise, but after the meeting, they rushed to ask for cooperation.
This is an old trick used by American capital, and Qingyun is no longer surprised.
Li Zehua was also frank during the reception, "Orders are always available, and the economic development achievements of Dongda are obvious to all. Now the annual automobile consumption market alone exceeds 10 million vehicles.
Countless ships, large aircraft, and more transportation needs will rapidly drive up Dongda’s further demand for energy, but who to place the orders for is a very serious question.
Yanjing knows who is helping us and who is hindering our development, so please show your sincerity. "
Texas Energy Group President Schultz is of German descent and said bluntly, "It's all the money-obsessed scum on Wall Street who caused the trouble. We at Texas Energy don't want to be associated with them.
Please rest assured that the Bank of America will not agree to lend money for your project in South America, but the Texas banking group is very interested as long as you can provide corresponding guarantees.
Even if it takes all our lives, we can still raise the funds needed to build the project, even $100 billion.
However, in return, Texas Energy at least requires a third of Venezuela’s oil and gas exports to the East.”
Schultz had made adequate preparations before coming, and he also understood the situation in Venezuela. It was unrealistic to want to have 100% control over oil and natural gas exports.
Even the shares of major energy groups may not be controlled, but what does it matter? The Caribbean is the back garden of American capital, as long as European capital can be driven out.
They have the final say on what the future holds. As long as there are steady and continuous orders from Dongda, investing in Venezuela will be a sure win.
Aren’t they just oil pipelines and traffic arteries? Only by bundling the core resources of the University of Tokyo here can they better control other places.
This is because it is impossible for Tokyo University’s capital to easily give up its huge interests in South America, while American capital can play the biggest role and take the opportunity to gain interests within Tokyo University, and it is not impossible for it to gain interests in Southeast Asia.
In short, the bundling and exchange of interests are mutual. No matter how powerful American capital is, it cannot create something out of nothing. It must control the opponent's resources of equal value to force the other party to sit down and negotiate calmly.
Otherwise, it would be like the current situation, where the Qingyun Group does not have many interests in Europe and the United States, but large European and American companies have numerous interests in the East and Southeast Asia, and there is a serious imbalance between the two sides.
If a real fight breaks out, the losses of American capital will be much greater than Qingyun's. Moreover, if Dongda takes sides, the losses will exceed the psychological expectations of American capital.
Everyone wants to take advantage, but as for business that will cause losses, sorry, unless you are a fool, you will drink it to fill your stomach even if you know it is poison.
As a result, the Zui faction and the He faction, which had originally united on the surface, parted ways again because of the huge gap in their actual interests. This was not the first time, and it was destined not to be the last time.
Wall Street was still very happy, thinking that it could gather the huge power of all American capital to first defeat Oumeng Capital and then settle the accounts with Dongda Capital.
Unexpectedly, traditional American capital ran to seek peace in the blink of an eye, without even thinking of notifying Wall Street, and simply sold out all their shares.
After obtaining traditional and American capital and the support of major internal groups, Qingyun Group, despite external doubts, incredulous looks and persuasion, formally proposed to Yanjing a major plan to invest in Peru, Samba and Venezuela.
Subsequently, under the premise that Oumeng Capital attempted to introduce Dongda Capital to compete with American capital, especially in South America and West Asia, Oumeng could no longer stand, but did not want to reveal all its interests, so it urgently needed the support of Dongda Capital.
Then they took a breath and wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers, so the major economies in Europe responded quickly and approved this business plan that would inevitably have a major impact on other economies.
Only Jiaobenji is jumping up and down, fearing that Dongda's increased investment in South America will affect their market share, especially at the moment when Samba publicly announced that it would reduce funding from Jiaobenji.
It is even more impossible for them to easily allow Qingyun Group to make such a huge investment plan. If it is really successful, who will have the dominant rights over Samba's food and minerals in the future?
There will also be an impact on the pricing power of iron ore, aluminum and copper, affecting interests of more than hundreds of billions. In short, the chicken feet disagree, but its voice is too small, so it can only seek help from American capital.
But at this time, the large American-funded groups, each with their own ulterior motives, made completely different choices based on comprehensive considerations of their own interests.
In particular, the lobbying group that Qingyun paid a huge price to buy off, began to carry out key public relations efforts on bigwigs who hold decision-making power in Washington with the help of traditional American capital.
"Wall Street is not a monolithic entity. Citibank and JPMorgan Chase have sent people to tell us that as long as their needs can be met, there are plenty of loans and investments are available at any time."
Li Zehua was very confident about this. In a phone call to Mai Sui San of the Five Military Commandery, he emphasized again: "The key depends on your attitude. If you can resist the temptation of some jumping clowns.
South America's major transportation artery will definitely be successfully built. It will no longer go through Panama, and the annual toll savings will be an astronomical figure, not to mention cooperating with Samba to take back Vale.
This strategy has irreplaceable help in lowering the import prices of bulk raw materials such as iron ore.”
Mai Sui San pondered for a moment and said, "I'll think about it again. Don't be impatient!" (End of this chapter)
