After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 74: The market turns around again and again
Lu Liang felt that there was a high probability that it would pass.

The person in power this time is An San, who has served as prime minister three times. Last year, he directly dissolved the House of Representatives, held a general election two years ahead of schedule, and completed his re-election, achieving the achievement of serving as prime minister three times.

Last month, despite the world's opposition and the protests of millions of people on the streets, the United States pushed through the new security law, making it possible for Japan to exercise its collective self-defense right.

By tearing open the enemy country clause and Article 9 of the Constitution, Japan, as a defeated country in World War II, is prohibited from maintaining any army or other armed forces, and is prohibited from producing any war materials.

Anshan can be regarded as a strong man sent from heaven, and Lu Liang also concluded that raising the consumption tax is an inevitable choice.

"What are you thinking about?"

It was almost six o'clock and most of the company's employees had gone off work. Su Wanyu held her cheek with her hand and stared at Lu Liang in a daze.

"I'm thinking about where I'll take you to eat later." Lu Liang turned his head to look out the window, and before he knew it, the red sun was setting in the west.

“How about a rotating hot pot?”

"Didn't we just have hot pot last night?"

"It seems so. You decide then. I'll get off work first and see you at the intersection later."

Su Wanyu walked out of the office, said hello to Chen Jinchun, and limped out of the company.

Lu Liang looked at her back and called Zhao Haisheng to ask about the progress of the foreign exchange account.

Knowing that it would be available tomorrow, I tidied up my desk and left the company right after him.

That night, the two went to eat grilled fish and then watched an animated movie, Hero is Back.

"This movie is the dark horse of the summer vacation. I heard from my classmates that it is very good."

Su Wanyu chattered away, her sprained foot not affecting her happy mood at all.

Lu Liang thought of "Charlotte", which he planned to release during the National Day holiday, which was still more than two months away.

After sending Su Wanyu home at night, Lu Liang returned home and waited for midnight to come.

【August 8, USD/JPY, 1】

"21 points, but why on Wednesday?"

Lu Liang frowned. If there was any disturbance, the financial market would definitely respond immediately.

But the cabinet meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, so if it is decided to raise the consumption tax, it will definitely be announced on the same day.

How could there be a one-day lag?
What happened that day?
With doubts in his mind, Lu Liang fell asleep.

The next day, the "Forex Bao" account was successfully registered, and he spent a whole day understanding the foreign exchange market.

It is inevitable that Japan will raise the consumption tax, and a large number of international speculators are gearing up to short the yen.

"Short selling is a very secretive thing. When it becomes a consensus among the public, is it still bad news?"

"Given Anshan's character, will he watch international speculators reap the wealth of the people?"

Lu Liang expressed his doubts about this. Raising the consumption tax was a new policy that Anshan strongly promoted, and he could not have been unaware of the consequences.

The increase in consumption tax will directly increase private expenditure costs, thereby inhibiting market consumption.

Things have become more expensive, so people will naturally be reluctant to spend money. Apart from filling the national treasury, this will do more harm than good.

Lu Liang thought of a possibility: the consumption tax would be raised, the yen would plummet, and the central bank would step in to rescue the market.

But due to force majeure, we still lost, so there will be a one-day lag.

"New security law!" Lu Liang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Japan's exercise of the right of collective self-defense has angered not only the invaded countries but also America, the vested interest group.

The US military has been stationed in Japan for more than 60 years, and has been taking bribes for decades under the pretext of protecting regional peace.

Of course, the Americans are the most angry about regaining the right to self-defense. Not making money is a small matter, but losing face is a big matter.

how?

Want to develop Xinhe Liansheng?
Is it that I can’t protect you anymore?

If a son is rebellious, he as a father must punish him.

This kind of thing cannot be a precedent. If it happens once, there will be a second one. If the younger brother wants to start Xinhe Liansheng, how can the elder brother lead the team in the future? The more Lu Liang thought about it, the higher the possibility. In this way, the foreign exchange market will reverse again and again.

He logged into his brokerage account, withdrew 6400 million, and converted it into 1000 million US dollars based on the exchange rate of the day.

By the way, I took a look at Home Depot A. It had hit the floor for three consecutive days and finally broke through today, but it also opened low by -7.6%.

Li Jianlin and Wu Junle should have sold almost all the goods, but Lu Liang didn't have the heart to pay attention to them.

He divided the 1000 million into two parts, took out 500 million and injected it into the margin account, using a 10x leverage.

Enter the foreign exchange market and build a 108.12% base position at the price of 5.

250 million US dollars, the profit or loss of one point is 2.31 US dollars, and the handling fee is US dollars.

Lu Liang’s margin account has 500 million US dollars, and the maximum acceptable decline is 151 points.

Even if Japan sinks directly to the bottom of the sea, there will be no liquidation.

In the next few days,
Lu Liang was trying to understand the domestic situation in Japan, and Su Wanyu's N2 Japanese certificate played an important role.

Only international newspapers and periodicals have full English translations; some tabloids are too lazy or have no money to do so.

Often, the news conveyed by tabloids is more authentic and can better reflect the current situation in Japan.

The N2 Japanese certificate corresponds to the College English Test Band level, so there is basically no pressure in reading.

Lu Liang also learned about it through Su Wanyu's translation.

At present, some banks in Japan have set limits on the exchange of various types of foreign currency to prevent the outflow of public funds.

The storm is coming, the wheel of history is rolling, and raising the consumption tax seems to be inevitable.

A large number of people took to the streets, holding banners, to oppose the increase in consumption tax.

"You really helped me a lot."

While no one was paying attention, Lu Liang kissed Su Wanyu hard, causing her face to blush.

After dinner that night, Lu Liang sent Su Wanyu home. She took out a small exquisite box from her bag and said, "This is for you."

"What is that?" Lu Liang was stunned. He couldn't remember the last time he received a gift with exquisite packaging.

It may have been ten years ago, or maybe twenty years ago. The time is too long and the memory is already blurred.

After I started working, I still had some interests in the first few years, such as inviting friends to have a foot bath or have a midnight snack, which was considered celebrating my birthday.

He no longer cared about the next seven or eight years. If his parents and sister had not called him on a fixed day every year, he would not have known that he was a year older.

"It's not a surprise if I tell you about it. You'll know when you open it." Su Wanyu smiled.

The packaging was very careful, not like what you buy in the market. Lu Liang couldn't help but ask, "Did you pack it yourself?"

Su Wanyu narrowed her eyes and raised her chin, looking like she was about to praise me: "Isn't that great?"

"awesome."

Lu Liang had a complicated look in his eyes. He untied the bow and wrapping paper, revealing a string of English letters "ZIPPO" on the box.

The lighter is silver-white with a green four-leaf clover printed on it. There is a string of English letters engraved on the front, which roughly means eternal love. It should be built-in. There is a custom Chinese message engraved on the back: Smoke less.

The handwriting is beautiful, elegant and free-flowing, and you can tell at a glance that it is Su Wanyu's handwriting.

"Thank you, I like it very much." Lu Liang tried it a few times and it felt good, but it couldn't be ignited without fuel.

Su Wanyu suddenly imitated Lu Liang's tone: "Four-leaf clover is a rare variant of the genus Trifolium. Among 100,000 clovers, only one has four leaves, so it is regarded as a symbol of luck. Meeting you is also the greatest luck of my life."

Lu Liang smiled, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. Before he could make any move, Su Wanyu ran out of the car.

"Bye~ Be safe on your way home~" She waved at the door of the apartment.

"Bye~"

Lu Liang smiled and watched Su Wanyu go upstairs.
