After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 76 Even the gods can’t save you [Subscribe]

The cabinet meeting was held as scheduled on Tuesday morning.

The time difference between China and Japan is only one hour, so Lu Liang doesn't have to stay up late. He wakes up and leisurely comes to the company.

While eating breakfast, I turned on the live news room and the camera was aimed at the second floor of the Parliament Building.

The podium has been set up, and we are just waiting for the cabinet meeting to end so that the decisions of this parliament can be announced to the whole country.

The camera occasionally flashes across street scenes where people with white bandages on their heads take to the streets to protest against the increase in consumption tax.

Lu Liang opened the software. Although the decision had not been announced yet, the US-Japan exchange rate could no longer be suppressed.

This is closely related to the fact that some banks prohibit people from exchanging foreign currency in order to protect themselves.

International speculators are like a group of bloodthirsty jackals, waiting for the moment when their prey takes its last breath before attacking.

Lu Liang maintained a 5% position without any action. He planned to build a position at the lowest level to maximize his profits.

At 10 a.m. Beijing time, the cabinet meeting ended and people began to walk out of the meeting hall one after another.

Anshan, surrounded by the crowd, walked up to the podium and the first sentence he said was: "Private Marseille."

Take a half step back to the left and make a standard 90-degree bow, like an ancient emperor issuing an edict of repentance.

He spoke with deep sorrow about the very difficult decision he had to make to raise the consumption tax from 5% to 8%.

The press conference is still going on, but few people are willing to listen to what is said later.

The increase in consumption tax is a fait accompli and huge negative news that is visible and tangible.

Although there was talk of implementing an economic stimulus policy worth 5.5 trillion yen, it was just empty promises.

The foreign exchange market responded quickly, and it was a carnival feast for international speculators.

It was just a feast, not as sumptuous as imagined, and there were many people who agreed with Lu Liang.

Over the years, Anshan is considered the most powerful leader and has invented the famous "Anshan Economics".

Although he was ridiculed as 'Ansan political science', it is undeniable that he has profound attainments in finance.

Everyone is waiting, waiting for him to reveal his true intentions and play all his cards. No one wants to be the first to stick out.

Amid the atmosphere of suspicion, the yen stopped falling.

110 yen is like a chasm.

"Is it true? Or is it just an empty city plan?"

Lu Liang frowned and observed the market.

He can also use 4750 million US dollars, which is a considerable force in the market.

If we wait until the market starts to take off, we will definitely not be able to compete with the big capital and can only follow them and get some benefits.

If it was a few months ago, he would just drink a little, but now Lu Liang’s appetite is getting bigger and bigger, and he wants to eat a lot.

"When others are greedy, I am afraid. When others are afraid, I am greedy. Since no one is willing to be the first to take action, I will do it."

Lu Liang narrowed his eyes, used 2000 million US dollars, created a short order of 43.6 billion yen, and threw it into the market.

The position is 45%, the cost price is 109.1100 yen, and the profit or loss of one point is 19.49 US dollars.

The maximum acceptable decline is 18 points, and once the loss exceeds 350 million, the forced liquidation line will be triggered.

2000 million US dollars entered the long-dormant market, creating ripples.

A large number of small short orders followed, and the army of short sellers seemed to have found a leader and instantly broke through the 110 yen mark.

But before the short sellers had time to be happy, a large amount of funds poured into the market and the USD/JPY exchange rate stopped rising.

The foreign exchange market took a sharp turn for the worse as the Bank of Tokyo held a press conference to implement a 3 trillion yen infrastructure plan.

The Finance Minister indicated that it was necessary to achieve a virtuous cycle of growth and distribution to put the economy on a path of autonomous growth.

In a nutshell, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, take from the people and give back to the people, and build a prosperous Tokyo economic circle.

As soon as the press conference ended, the US-Japan exchange rate instantly returned to 108 yen, and countless highly leveraged short positions were instantly liquidated.

Because retail investors do not have enough funds, they all want to make a small investment for a big return, and they often use high leverage of 50 times or 200 times.

Even a one-point fluctuation can cause them to blow up their positions or even lose all their margin accounts. This small correction caused Lu Liang to lose $24.6 on paper.

"Not enough. The new security law is the key."

Lu Liang firmly believed that the Americans would not allow their authority to be violated. The big thing had not yet come, and Anshan had not played all his cards.

As if to verify his guess, a rumor suddenly came out that the Foreign Minister had met with the commander of the US military in Japan.

An agreement was reached on the funding for stationing U.S. troops in Japan, with Japan to bear approximately $180 billion in expenses over the next five years.

Compared with the previous five years, the year-on-year increase was 8.5%, including water, electricity, gas charges, employee wages and training transfer fees.

"Voluntarily raising the protection fee, are you trying to settle the matter with money?"

Lu Liang understood Anshan's thoughts and looked at the foreign exchange market. The air force was becoming increasingly weak and was about to fall below 107 yen.

He sold another $2000 million, and his account position increased to 85%, directly curbing the upward momentum of the yen.

At this time, the situation was not clear. Only Lu Liang's force was operating, and it seemed that there was a situation where when there was no tiger in the mountain, the monkey would become the king.

The Japanese side has already apologized.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for America's attitude.

Lu Liang stayed in the company until late at night. He opened the blinds and saw Chen Jinchun still at his post.

He walked out of the office: "Pour me a cup of coffee, then you can go back first. The company does not need to lock the door."

The time difference between China and Japan is only one hour, but the time difference between China and the United States is 12 hours, so he is still waiting.

Whether the US accepts or rejects it will largely determine the subsequent direction of the US-Japan exchange rate.

Chen Jinchun was stunned: "Mr. Lu, aren't you going to get off work?"

"There's still some work to deal with." Lu Liang shook his head and asked Chen Jinchun to go back early and be careful on the road.

In the blink of an eye, the company was empty, with only the office lights on.

Lu Liang set the alarm and planned to take a nap.

At two o'clock in the morning, the official website of Wall Street updated an article.

The editor-in-chief personally interviewed Soros, the god of speculation, and asked him about his views on the direction of the Japanese yen.

"Creating inflation expectations lets consumers know that prices will rise in the future, so they will buy the goods they were going to buy as soon as possible, thus boosting consumption and investment, and thus reversing the long-term extremely low consumption and investment situation."

"This is a paradox. A truly free market cannot be controlled, and doing so will inevitably be backfired by the market."

The white-haired octogenarian bluntly criticized the basic operating logic of the "Anshan Economic Theory".

After all, this was not the first time he had done this, and his intention to short the yen was almost written on his face.

The foreign exchange market was in turmoil again, and it surged 5 points in an instant to 112 yen.

At this critical juncture, the Wall Street Journal invited Soros for an interview, and Soros agreed. The content of the interview was still about the direction of the Japanese yen.

It can be said that Sima Zhao's intention is known to everyone.

At 3:30 in the morning, news suddenly came from the White House.

About six hours ago, Lucian met with the Ice Princess, and the two sides had a friendly exchange on the 66th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and South Korea.

"Kill!"

Lu Liang was amazed. He didn't have time to sigh at the strength of the United States. He quickly operated his account and repurchased a large amount of Japanese yen to close his positions.

Because the moment the news came out of the White House, the US-Japan exchange rate suddenly rose by 13 points to 125 yen.

Everyone knows that in the early 1990s, South Korea was able to develop by relying on the United States to dismember the Japanese economy.

At this time, Lucian made an appointment to talk to the Ice Princess, which was obviously to flatter Anshan.

As long as we don't accept apology, the new security law issue will not be resolved.

The interview with the Ice Princess is political suppression, and Soros’s intervention is economic suppression.

With these two approaches in place, the downward channel for the depreciation of the Japanese yen has been opened, and even the gods cannot save it.
