The leisurely life of rebirth.
Chapter 56 The trip to Japan
very cool!Fang Monan blinked his eyes, and had to admit that this young lady was very eye-catching, but he didn't know if she would be so cute when she was an adult, and she prayed that she would not grow crooked.Long lashes, deep contours, and sea-blue eyes add a lot of glamour to their childhood and teenage years.
Fang Monan saw that he was about twelve or thirteen years old, and his actions were very elegant, but that arrogance was exposed, which greatly reduced the aristocratic temperament around him.Thin figure, long arms and long legs, always lifts his chin slightly when walking, proudly like a peacock.
When Ludwig Olivier walked to his seat and sat down, he didn't need to speak, but with his appearance, he was already the focus of the backstage, not to mention his performance, most of the players in the backstage were involuntarily observing him .It wasn't because of his good looks, but because his performance just now was indeed superior to the previous players. His existence had already announced a powerful obstacle to his opponents.
Fang Monan looked at Mobei, who was still listening to the music with headphones on, and was not disturbed by the previous interruption until Reynard picked her up and walked to the stage.Leonard is Mobei's piano accompaniment.
Fang Monan stood at a corner of the stage and poked her head out quietly, but unfortunately the lights were too bright, she couldn't see the audience clearly.All I saw was that Mo Bei was standing straight on the stage. [
Standing on the stage, Fang Mobei took a deep breath and let it out again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, bowing to the judges in the audience.Just like what my sister said, there is nothing to be afraid of regarding the judges as Chinese cabbages. She hinted to herself like this without any stage fright. She saw that there were only seven or eight people in the audience, and five judges were smiling, including a woman.
Leonard had already told her about the information of the five judges before the competition.Fang Mobei only knew that they were very famous and could be called masters, but to Mobei, it was unimaginable.So, just listen, there is no specific concept.Not knowing is also good, those who know fear.
The first piece is the Antonio Vivaldi Violin Concerto, "Spring" in E major, which Ludwig Olivier played before.
Mo Bei put on a posture, nodded slightly to Leonard, the first sound, it was perfect, a good start, Mo Bei's heart was lifted, and the allegro poured out like water, she was no worse than others, she Have their own understanding of the music.As long as the beginning goes well and Mobei finds his status, there will be no problems in the future.
Leonard's previous worries also disappeared with Mobei's performance.After listening to the first performance, Leonard was even more excited. Mo Bei performed supernormally, which is great!
The five judges in the audience were a little surprised. After all, when they got the information, they saw this six-year-old oriental girl, who was as cute as a doll.Instinctively feel that this is to get the experience of the game, to get acquainted, to accompany the 'Prince' to study.
The purpose of their coming here was to listen to Ludwig Olivier's performance. Sure enough, he did not disappoint everyone. It was obvious that he was more than one grade above other opponents. He was born in a musical family and could be considered a child of acquaintances.Ludwig Olivier did not disappoint the five judges. His strength and emotion are very good. He already has his own music style and has great potential.Although his skills need to be improved due to age restrictions, he is indeed a rare genius.Originally thought that this time the champion would also be determined, but who expected such a dark horse to come out? !
The five judges all slowly restrained their relaxed and happy smiles, stopped drinking coffee, and listened carefully without the initial contempt.
The piano accompaniment is also very good, listen carefully, the piano accompanist is obviously a famous player, but the sound of the violin is not weaker than it at all, and it does not overwhelm the host.
"Spring" is divided into three movements, which are expressed successively: [-]. Spring is here, and there is no limit to joy.The birds sing songs of joy to welcome the spring.The breeze blows the clear spring, and the spring water flows.The sky was covered with dark clouds, lightning flashed, and thunder roared.The thunder and lightning are fleeting, and the birds sing again.
[-]. On the grass in full bloom and among the rustling grass, the shepherd is resting, and his faithful shepherd dog is lying aside.
[-]. Accompanied by the cheerful sound of country bagpipes, fairies and shepherds dance under the clear sky of lovely spring.
Six years old, is she really only six years old?Not counting according to her first year of age, she was only six years old in three months.She interpreted this piece perfectly.
After the 9-minute music was played, when Fang Mobei took down the violin and bowed, the five judges paused for a while before looking at each other, seeing the same views as themselves in the eyes of others.This skill, this artistic conception, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's hard to believe that it was played by a six-year-old child!Even if they themselves, it took more than ten years of learning to have such fingering skills, which is still a little immature. After time, she will become more skilled, I can't imagine it.But the emotions expressed by this person are touching... At what age did she start practicing?Is there really a genius in this world who can succeed without hard work?This, this, if this is really the case, God is too unfair!
When Fang Mobei walked towards the edge of the stage after the performance, Fang Monan hugged her, "You are a genius, an absolute genius."
"I'm a genius!" Mo Bei said stinky.
"Okay, the performance is good, but there are a few fingers that should be like this..." Leonard said. To be honest, she was surprised. Mo Bei didn't have any stage experience. When he first taught her the "Spring" Concerto , Mobei couldn't find the feeling, and later they practiced on the farm.Mo Bei looked at the lush farm, the birds took off, and the butterflies fluttered. She finally found the inspiration for how to express it.Unexpectedly, in the finals, she improved a lot, and she performed so well, maybe she lacked utilitarianism.
Only then did the purest music appear, I hope she will keep it up, I wonder if she will be like this in the next series of competitions?Leonard is looking forward to it.
When he stepped down, Mobei received the same treatment as Ludwig Olivier, or even worse, because Ludwig himself stared at Mobei with a burning gaze. [
Mo Bei turned his head, "Sister, why is he staring at me? Did I offend him?" asked innocently.
"Oh! You performed very well, he is jealous of you." Fang Monan said.
"Jealous, he plays better than me, I should be jealous of him." Fang Mobei commented pertinently after the comparison.Then she walked up to Ludwig, "I'm jealous of you too." She stared at him with childish viciousness, just like him.
Ludwig looked at her and smiled 'puchi', "You're 'cute'", he said in German.
"What did he say?" Fang Mobei asked, pulling Lamenan's hand.
"He said you were cute," Leonard said.
While he was busy talking, the game was over, and he was alone for more than 20 minutes, which was not a long time, and it was an exciting moment.
The final result came out. Mobei ranked No.2, and No.1 was Ludwig Olivier. Regarding this point, Fang Monan looked at Mobei and accepted it calmly, "He is bigger than me." Yes, it should be the first."
Mobei knows that he has the advantage of being young, and although he is slightly inferior to him in terms of skills, he is better than him in his unrestrained, enthusiastic, agile, and contagious emotions.
After receiving the award, they sat on the return plane, Fang Mobei looked at the paper in his hand with a sad face.
"What's the matter, I'm not satisfied with the ranking." Leonard asked curiously.
"No, the bonus has changed from three thousand to two thousand, a total of one thousand dollars less." Mo Bei clenched his fists and waved: "Next time, next time I will definitely try to get three thousand dollars."
"Ah!" Leonard stroked his forehead with an unbelievable look, "That's all you care about."
"Of course, I did the calculations, excluding accommodation, meals and other expenses, and in the end we only have 100 dollars left." Fang Mobei handed the paper in his hand to Leonard.
Leonard looked at the paper and said that it only cost a few days. "Hey! Tell me what to say about you!" He sighed.
"For the first prize, I will continue to practice when I go back, and I must surpass that kid. The three thousand dollars is mine." Fang Mobei muttered.
There was no noise from the game in the country, so when Fang Mobei and the others came back, they would be quiet and less noisy.
It's just that when the family members saw the silver medals, they were all very happy.Everyone took a group photo with Mobei. This is the first medal for his family Xiaobei, which is of great significance.
For the next competition, Fang Mobei and Leonard started training again. The tormented grandma and the others complained endlessly, and the weather was getting hotter. They just drove the two of them to the farm and practiced on the mountain. Everyone’s ears were finally unaffected. tormented.
After two months like this, Leonard was pleasantly surprised to find that Mobei has made rapid progress, and his emotional expression is fuller and more powerful than before, especially in marches and military songs. The songs she released before were not strong and soft of.It didn't take long before the mental outlook changed drastically, and the tone and rhythm were sonorous, majestic, rhythmic, and inspiring.Leonard said with emotion that the game is really an exercise for people!Well, it's really good!
In June, Fang Mobei and the others flew to England to participate in the Menuhin International Youth Violin Competition.
When he set foot on British soil, Fang Monan felt Leonard's timid and fearful expression.During the match, she finally noticed that Leonard was rubbing his hands nervously, beads of sweat popping out from his forehead. [
"Lei, are you okay! You are more nervous and scared than my sister." Fang Monan tugged at his clothes, "What are you afraid of? This is not like you."
"You are British, how did you meet someone you know?" Fang Monan guessed, seeing how he froze after hearing her words. "There are really acquaintances. Judging by your appearance, the relationship is not good."
"Reynard! My God! Where have you gone? I can't find you no matter how hard I look." A middle-aged lady shouted while holding his hand. "I don't even shave. If I hadn't heard your voice, I'd hardly know it."
"Mom, let go first, this looks ugly." Leonard said blushingly.
"You child, why are you shy? I'm not an outsider." She let go of Leonard, looked up and down to see if he was suffering, and looked good and energetic. "Where did you go? Not a single call."
"Mom, let's not talk about it, I have to go to the competition." Leonard grabbed Mo Bei's hand and walked to the stage together.
The lady followed up wonderingly, standing on the side of the stage, this is a youth competition, what is he doing up there?ah!Piano accompaniment.
Despite her doubts, she calmed down and listened to the performance.Huh!This kid has a lot of potential.ah!When did his son's music style become so simple and mellow, as if his realm had improved.
After Leonard stepped down, they found a cafe and the four sat down.The two adults ordered coffee, and they ordered orange juice and cheesecake.
The lady picked up the coffee and took a sip gracefully, "Tell me! What's going on! Are you still angry with your father!"
Fang Monan and the others picked up the plate and ate the cake, all they had to do was listen.
"Nannan, this is my mother, Teresa Stocker." Leonard continued, "This is my violin student. I have been in China during this time. This time I came to participate in the competition."
"Hello! Ms. Stoke." Fang Mo Nan and Mo Bei stood up and greeted her.
"My God! How did you get to this point." Teresa said sadly, "I will definitely convince your father, let's go home!"
Hearing Teresa's words, Fang Monan glared at each other, but did not interrupt her.
"Mom, no, I'm having a good time now, and I'll call you later." Afraid of being unconvincing, Leonard said again: "Mom, really, I'm having a good time now, from my You should be able to hear it in the sound of the piano."
Teresa looked at his serious look, just looked at him with tears, and stopped persuading him.As long as he lives well, his palms and backs are full of flesh. The father and son quarreled, and she was the one who felt the most uncomfortable in the middle.
"Okay, then you promise to call me." Teresa said, maybe that's for the best.
"I promise."
"You are a good apprentice. Keep working hard and you will have a bright future." Teresa said to the point.
"Really!" Leonard smiled like a child.
"You have changed. You used to be gentle, personable, and rigid like a statue, but now you are much more lively and cheerful, like a big boy." Teresa said with a smile.
"Mom, we're going to see the results of the game." Leonard said as he stood up shyly.
As a result of the competition, Mobei still took the second place, No.1, Ludwig Olivier.
After the game, Leonard and the others played in England for three days before leaving under Ms. Stoke's reluctant eyes.
On the plane, Fang Mo Nan asked: "Lei, are we the reason you got here?" She looked up and down, seeing that the skin was loose and needed to be tightened.
"How come! You are my salvation." Leonard said seriously.
"Lei, when did you become so eloquent and able to speak well?" Fang Monan said.
"It's called 'When you get close to vermilion, you get red, when you get close to ink, you get black'." Who do you think I learned from?" Leonard said triumphantly.
"You..." Fang Monan choked on his words.
"Haha..." Leonard laughed happily, and finally saw her deflated.
*******************************
In September, Fang Monan and the others embarked on a journey to Japan.This time they acted separately, Leonard and Mobei were competing in Kobe, and Cheng Shigui drove Fang Monan to his residence in Tokyo.
A Japanese-style villa with three floors and a small garden at the front and back. The house area is about 270 square meters. It is located in a quiet residential area in downtown Tokyo.Fang Monan walked into the interior, decorated with fresh and natural, with a profound artistic conception of Zen.Simple and natural Japanese home decoration style.The simple solid wood furniture highlights the restrained and elegant Japanese atmosphere of the space.Traditional sliding doors and rice paper light fixtures adorn the entire home.Views of the small garden through sliding glass doors and a large living room. The master bathroom is designed in a traditional Japanese style with a shower with seat and a large spa bath.
Full-featured is the patent of a big house. The kitchen, lounge, open dining room, office, spa bath room, audio-visual room, guest room, etc. provide the residents with a spacious living and working environment.
"It's so beautiful." Fang Monan sat in the house and looked around.
"Hehe...it's not as good as the Chinese design of the Grand Hyatt Hotel." Cheng Shigui said. When the Grand Hyatt Hotel opened, he went there in person and was really shocked by the Chinese style in the room.He used to think that traditional formality was heavy and oppressive.Now it has changed completely. It turns out that adding Chinese elements can be so simple, bright, warm and comfortable.
"It has been open for three months now, and the benefits are good." Cheng Shigui said. "Liang Zi and the others have really worked hard. The two of them can hold the place together. They remember everything you said and even the little things like sesame and mung beans. It's as big as room layout and personnel training; as small as a dish, curtain design, They were all executed meticulously.”
"Of course, 'details determine success or failure'! Think about what the customer thinks, and be anxious about the customer's needs." Fang Monan said. "Speaking of which, how about Fatty's younger sister, Xiaomei?" Xiaomei also went to the south at the end of last year, after all, there is a lot of room for development there.Fat Uncle alone is enough on the farm, and Fang Monan and the others sometimes live on the farm, so there are definitely enough people.
"Very hard, very hardworking. I even applied for evening school." Cheng Shigui commented pertinently.
"En!" Fang Monan nodded, and took out a bracelet from his bag. The pink pearls were uniform in size like soybeans, and there was a ring made of gold silk and emerald hanging underneath. "This is a New Year's gift for Xiaomei." She really thought about it. After the Chinese New Year, Fang Monan received a package of cloth shoes and cotton shoes made by Xiaomei.
"Nannan, these pearls are really rare!" Cheng Shigui said: "Natural, the same size. The luster is transparent, with precious light, round and smooth. The quality is extraordinary!"
Fang Monan smiled and said nothing, the pearls were picked up during the last trip to the sea, and after screening, someone made them.
After Cheng Shigui put it away, he continued: "Now the land price in the Special Economic Zone has risen sharply. We bought more than 100 mu of land, and the land price has increased by almost 80.00%." Cheng Shigui said. "With policy support, the special zone will attract more and more foreign funds and talents, and this land will become more and more scarce resources. It is only natural that the land price is rising steadily. I think this land will continue to rise." He asked, "Continue to buy land in the future."
"No, the hotel's profits are all saved, and I have other uses." Fang Monan said in a deep voice.
Cheng Shigui nodded, speculating in land was not as profitable as they were in the upper reaches of the stock market. "It's a pity that you didn't attend the opening ceremony. The grand occasion is unprecedented. Although the hotel is not the tallest, it is the best." Cheng Shigui said without regret, "Even the mayor of the special zone and the mayor of Shekou District came in person."
"That's for Yan Guangxing's face!" Fang Monan said after taking a sip of tea.
"Speaking of Guangxing, he has become a money printing machine now. In his words, he now carries sacks to the bank every day." Cheng Shigui said with a smile. "It's an empty-handed white wolf, and it's a perfect game."
"It's only because of his background." Fang Monan said with emotion, it doesn't matter if he can't play well.
"By the way, to thank him for giving us 15.00% of the shares." Cheng Shigui said, "I, you, and Han Zhiqian each have 5.00%. This is the document to sign!"
"Oh! It's okay! You should contact foreign products at this stage." Fang Monan said, "I still have it!" She took the document, she deserved it, and she would not be polite, and signed her name.
"We deserve it." Cheng Shigui took it for granted that her idea could be to find anyone with a bit of energy in the mainland, especially now that there are many people doing business in the mainland.
At this time, Yang Fan also came in from the outside, "Ah! The boss is here." Yang Fan saw the teapot on the coffee table and poured a cup of tea by himself, smelled it, sat down and took a sip, and said comfortably: "Japan has changed from all kinds of normal tea. More than 20 billion U.S. dollars have been remitted through the channel, and the government is now encouraging foreign capital to enter, so there is no need to worry about the government’s attention.” He paused and said: “And most of the money has been converted into Japanese yen, because Japan is a country that lacks resources. Many companies in Japan in the world have lost business because they do not have enough US dollars to transfer when purchasing raw materials, and their funds are not because they have no funds but because most of their funds are stored in Japanese yen. Domestically. In this way, we provide them with US dollars and convert them into Japanese yen through our branches in major financial cities in the world.
"Okay! Good job." Fang Monan said.
"There, it's Matthew's idea." Yang Fan said.
"It was Nan Nan's reminder." Cheng Shigui said. "In addition, we have also borrowed about one billion US dollars from major Japanese banks."
"Okay, let's stop flattering each other here." Fang Monan said, "Next, Yang Fan will throw away all the Japanese stocks we hold within three days."
"Ah! The market outlook is going up obviously, so it's not appropriate to throw it away!" Yang Fan said.
It's a talent for this kid to dare to ask his own question at this juncture. "Throw it away! The next thing to do is much more profitable than this."
"Do you want to go long yen?" Cheng Shigui said.
"Okay! I know the next step." Fang Monan looked at him and praised.
Cheng Shigui opened his mouth and said a series of data: "Since the 80s, Japan's foreign investment has grown rapidly, its trade surplus has continued to surge, and it has leapt from a debtor country to a creditor country. 1985 times that of the previous year, the current account surplus was 440 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 1980% of the GDP. At the same time, the U.S. economy was caught in a predicament caused by high interest rates and the appreciation of the dollar. In order to get out of the predicament, the U.S. forced the yen to appreciate. The fastest and most effective means. This is the conclusion of our research laboratory."
Fang Monan saw that he was about twelve or thirteen years old, and his actions were very elegant, but that arrogance was exposed, which greatly reduced the aristocratic temperament around him.Thin figure, long arms and long legs, always lifts his chin slightly when walking, proudly like a peacock.
When Ludwig Olivier walked to his seat and sat down, he didn't need to speak, but with his appearance, he was already the focus of the backstage, not to mention his performance, most of the players in the backstage were involuntarily observing him .It wasn't because of his good looks, but because his performance just now was indeed superior to the previous players.

"Nannan, this is my mother, Teresa Stocker." Leonard continued, "This is my violin student. I have been in China during this time. This time I came to participate in the competition."
"Hello! Ms. Stoke." Fang Mo Nan and Mo Bei stood up and greeted her.
"My God! How did you get to this point." Teresa said sadly, "I will definitely convince your father, let's go home!"
Hearing Teresa's words, Fang Monan glared at each other, but did not interrupt her.
"Mom, no, I'm having a good time now, and I'll call you later." Afraid of being unconvincing, Leonard said again: "Mom, really, I'm having a good time now, from my You should be able to hear it in the sound of the piano."
Teresa looked at his serious look, just looked at him with tears, and stopped persuading him.As long as he lives well, his palms and backs are full of flesh. The father and son quarreled, and she was the one who felt the most uncomfortable in the middle.
"Okay, then you promise to call me." Teresa said, maybe that's for the best.
"I promise."
"You are a good apprentice. Keep working hard and you will have a bright future." Teresa said to the point.
"Really!" Leonard smiled like a child.
"You have changed. You used to be gentle, personable, and rigid like a statue, but now you are much more lively and cheerful, like a big boy." Teresa said with a smile.
"Mom, we're going to see the results of the game." Leonard said as he stood up shyly.
As a result of the competition, Mobei still took the second place, No.1, Ludwig Olivier.
After the game, Leonard and the others played in England for three days before leaving under Ms. Stoke's reluctant eyes.
On the plane, Fang Mo Nan asked: "Lei, are we the reason you got here?" She looked up and down, seeing that the skin was loose and needed to be tightened.
"How come! You are my salvation." Leonard said seriously.
"Lei, when did you become so eloquent and able to speak well?" Fang Monan said.
"It's called 'When you get close to vermilion, you get red, when you get close to ink, you get black'." Who do you think I learned from?" Leonard said triumphantly.
"You..." Fang Monan choked on his words.
"Haha..." Leonard laughed happily, and finally saw her deflated.
*******************************
In September, Fang Monan and the others embarked on a journey to Japan.This time they acted separately, Leonard and Mobei were competing in Kobe, and Cheng Shigui drove Fang Monan to his residence in Tokyo.
A Japanese-style villa with three floors and a small garden at the front and back. The house area is about 270 square meters. It is located in a quiet residential area in downtown Tokyo.Fang Monan walked into the interior, decorated with fresh and natural, with a profound artistic conception of Zen.Simple and natural Japanese home decoration style.The simple solid wood furniture highlights the restrained and elegant Japanese atmosphere of the space.Traditional sliding doors and rice paper light fixtures adorn the entire home.Views of the small garden through sliding glass doors and a large living room. The master bathroom is designed in a traditional Japanese style with a shower with seat and a large spa bath.
Full-featured is the patent of a big house. The kitchen, lounge, open dining room, office, spa bath room, audio-visual room, guest room, etc. provide the residents with a spacious living and working environment.
"It's so beautiful." Fang Monan sat in the house and looked around.
"Hehe...it's not as good as the Chinese design of the Grand Hyatt Hotel." Cheng Shigui said. When the Grand Hyatt Hotel opened, he went there in person and was really shocked by the Chinese style in the room.He used to think that traditional formality was heavy and oppressive.Now it has changed completely. It turns out that adding Chinese elements can be so simple, bright, warm and comfortable.
"It has been open for three months now, and the benefits are good." Cheng Shigui said. "Liang Zi and the others have really worked hard. The two of them can hold the place together. They remember everything you said and even the little things like sesame and mung beans. It's as big as room layout and personnel training; as small as a dish, curtain design, They were all executed meticulously.”
"Of course, 'details determine success or failure'! Think about what the customer thinks, and be anxious about the customer's needs." Fang Monan said. "Speaking of which, how about Fatty's younger sister, Xiaomei?" Xiaomei also went to the south at the end of last year, after all, there is a lot of room for development there.Fat Uncle alone is enough on the farm, and Fang Monan and the others sometimes live on the farm, so there are definitely enough people.
"Very hard, very hardworking. I even applied for evening school." Cheng Shigui commented pertinently.
"En!" Fang Monan nodded, and took out a bracelet from his bag. The pink pearls were uniform in size like soybeans, and there was a ring made of gold silk and emerald hanging underneath. "This is a New Year's gift for Xiaomei." She really thought about it. After the Chinese New Year, Fang Monan received a package of cloth shoes and cotton shoes made by Xiaomei.
"Nannan, these pearls are really rare!" Cheng Shigui said: "Natural, the same size. The luster is transparent, with precious light, round and smooth. The quality is extraordinary!"
Fang Monan smiled and said nothing, the pearls were picked up during the last trip to the sea, and after screening, someone made them.
After Cheng Shigui put it away, he continued: "Now the land price in the Special Economic Zone has risen sharply. We bought more than 100 mu of land, and the land price has increased by almost 80.00%." Cheng Shigui said. "With policy support, the special zone will attract more and more foreign funds and talents, and this land will become more and more scarce resources. It is only natural that the land price is rising steadily. I think this land will continue to rise." He asked, "Continue to buy land in the future."
"No, the hotel's profits are all saved, and I have other uses." Fang Monan said in a deep voice.
Cheng Shigui nodded, speculating in land was not as profitable as they were in the upper reaches of the stock market. "It's a pity that you didn't attend the opening ceremony. The grand occasion is unprecedented. Although the hotel is not the tallest, it is the best." Cheng Shigui said without regret, "Even the mayor of the special zone and the mayor of Shekou District came in person."
"That's for Yan Guangxing's face!" Fang Monan said after taking a sip of tea.
"Speaking of Guangxing, he has become a money printing machine now. In his words, he now carries sacks to the bank every day." Cheng Shigui said with a smile. "It's an empty-handed white wolf, and it's a perfect game."
"It's only because of his background." Fang Monan said with emotion, it doesn't matter if he can't play well.
"By the way, to thank him for giving us 15.00% of the shares." Cheng Shigui said, "I, you, and Han Zhiqian each have 5.00%. This is the document to sign!"
"Oh! It's okay! You should contact foreign products at this stage." Fang Monan said, "I still have it!" She took the document, she deserved it, and she would not be polite, and signed her name.
"We deserve it." Cheng Shigui took it for granted that her idea could be to find anyone with a bit of energy in the mainland, especially now that there are many people doing business in the mainland.
At this time, Yang Fan also came in from the outside, "Ah! The boss is here." Yang Fan saw the teapot on the coffee table and poured a cup of tea by himself, smelled it, sat down and took a sip, and said comfortably: "Japan has changed from all kinds of normal tea. More than 20 billion U.S. dollars have been remitted through the channel, and the government is now encouraging foreign capital to enter, so there is no need to worry about the government’s attention.” He paused and said: “And most of the money has been converted into Japanese yen, because Japan is a country that lacks resources. Many companies in Japan in the world have lost business because they do not have enough US dollars to transfer when purchasing raw materials, and their funds are not because they have no funds but because most of their funds are stored in Japanese yen. Domestically. In this way, we provide them with US dollars and convert them into Japanese yen through our branches in major financial cities in the world.
"Okay! Good job." Fang Monan said.
"There, it's Matthew's idea." Yang Fan said.
"It was Nan Nan's reminder." Cheng Shigui said. "In addition, we have also borrowed about one billion US dollars from major Japanese banks."
"Okay, let's stop flattering each other here." Fang Monan said, "Next, Yang Fan will throw away all the Japanese stocks we hold within three days."
"Ah! The market outlook is going up obviously, so it's not appropriate to throw it away!" Yang Fan said.
It's a talent for this kid to dare to ask his own question at this juncture. "Throw it away! The next thing to do is much more profitable than this."
"Do you want to go long yen?" Cheng Shigui said.
"Okay! I know the next step." Fang Monan looked at him and praised.
Cheng Shigui opened his mouth and said a series of data: "Since the 80s, Japan's foreign investment has grown rapidly, its trade surplus has continued to surge, and it has leapt from a debtor country to a creditor country. 1985 times that of the previous year, the current account surplus was 440 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 1980% of the GDP. At the same time, the U.S. economy was caught in a predicament caused by high interest rates and the appreciation of the dollar. In order to get out of the predicament, the U.S. forced the yen to appreciate. The fastest and most effective means. This is the conclusion of our research laboratory."
