Chapter 466 The culprit of the downturn in the neon economy
The next morning.
Sunlight shines through the tall window sills into the master bedroom of an ancient English castle.
After special design, the classical style windows with the function of removing ultraviolet rays are reflected on Abel's face after being refracted by high-tech glass.
This made Abel couldn't help but opened his eyes and woke up from a comfortable deep sleep.
"Huh—"
Gently spit out the morning turbidity.
Abel has now fully adapted to this body.
This body only needs to sleep for 3-5 hours a day to ensure sufficient energy for the day, and a strong body that doesn't even need a lunch break.
For a long time, Abel felt that except for the financial talent that seemed to be a cheat.
As a reborn person, this body is his most important cheat.
The body is the capital of the revolution. Only with enough capital in this area can one be more successful than others.
Like Sima Yi, in the most brilliant period of the Three Kingdoms, his personal ability can only be regarded as mediocre.
But he was able to live very well. He survived Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and a large number of outstanding people.
In the post-Three Kingdoms era, he was the most powerful one.
Then it worked.
Modern society, without mentioning other aspects.
Those who are successful in business are mostly energetic people.
Abel felt that if he did not have such a strong body.
No matter how rich and powerful he is.
Playing with women like this, after a long time, the body is bound to be exhausted.
When I get old, I will really look at X and cry.
Unlike now, a dozen 25 can barely tie.
One VS three, that is naturally even more out of the question.
Abel believes that just this exaggerated physique makes him surpass 99.999% of the human beings in the world.
Hmmm…the reason why it’s not 100%.
It's because in the human group, there are still some monsters and weirdos, which are very exaggerated in some respects.
For example, at the end of Tsarist Russia, Rasputin, the demon monk who partially led to the decline of Tsarist Russia, probably had the same physique as Abel.
This guy who was just a rogue boy in his early years did not know where he learned some hypnotic witchcraft and other messy things in his middle age.
By chance, he saved the youngest son of the Tsar at that time.
This made Rasputin suddenly a celebrity in the tsar's court.
In the next few years, Rasputin lived very happily in the court.
Do not mention his influence on the current situation and political governance of Tsarist Russia.
Only mentioning Rasputin’s experience in the aristocratic and high-level circles of Tsarist Russia at that time—
It is said that at that time, more than 1/3 of the high-level Russian officials, including the queen, had an affair with him...
It is also said that this person has a superhuman level of capital in a certain way...
In the end, maybe someone refused to wear a hat.
It may also be that someone wants to save the palace that was "disasterd" by Rasputin.
Several nobles stood up.
One of the nobles, Yusupov, organized the rest of the people to invite Rasputin to his home for pastries in the name of his wife.
Why didn't this nobleman invite himself, but use his wife's name?
Obviously, only in the name of his wife can Rasputin be fooled.
Why can his wife call Rasputin over?
Tsk tsk tsk, Rasputin may be surnamed Wang, and he lives next door.
The nobles put poison in the cakes and wine that Rasputin ate.
Surprisingly, however, Rasputin was unscathed after eating eight pastries and a bottle of wine.
In desperation, Yusupov had no choice but to stand up and fired a shot at Rasputin, hitting his vitals.
Just when everyone thought that Rasputin fell to the ground and died.
Rasputin suddenly jumped up, grabbed Yusupov's neck and cursed, and then quickly ran out of the room.
Then he was shot three times by another nobleman who followed him.
One of the shots hit the forehead, but he woke up again a few minutes later.
In the end, Yusupov hit him on the head with a dumbbell so hard that he passed out, and then threw him into the river.
It is said that Rasputin struggled for 8 minutes in the icy river before he really died.
The capital is strong, and 1/3 of the noble women of Tsarist Russia, including the queen at the time...
Xiaoqiang's general vitality, may also have a hypnotic ability.
This kind of thing is placed on the interface of reality without supernatural power. Abel didn't believe it before.
And when he himself has such a physique, Abel is already wondering, maybe Rasputin, or maybe his own kind?
It's just that this reborn person may not be educated or know anything about history.
Sora has a strong body after rebirth and weak hypnotic ability, but in the end he ended up dead in the cold ice river.
Snapped-
Gently patted Monica Cruz who was closest to him.
The younger sister of the Spanish national treasure goddess.
Looks exactly like her sister, and has a very good figure.
The key is that she is as inexperienced as Penelope, willing to learn and dedicated.
He shook his head and smiled, and got up directly from Simmons.
After a simple wash, it is just right to see the sunshine outside.
Put on a set of privately tailored high-end sportswear without a brand.
Abel ran for about half an hour in the beautiful lawn of Strawberry Hill.
Around 8:30 in the morning, after changing clothes and taking a shower, Abel sat in the sunny glass restaurant of Strawberry Villa.
At the dining table, Abel looked at the newspaper, which mainly contained reports about his coming to the UK.
What a super financier, what a neon man raider or something.
But compared to the less polite tone in the newspapers a few days ago.
In today's newspapers, his arguments are obviously much more harmonious and fair.
Abel guessed that this might have something to do with Neon, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs began to reduce related funds.
After all, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has limited funds, which are mainly used to maintain the image of Neon in the world.
Maintain the "craftsmanship" spirit of Neon people, and other relatively good image expenditures.
This is expensive. After all, all the money can't be used to discredit Abel.
Plus the neon people actually understand that this kind of smearing of Abel is actually of little use.
Besides, they dare not go too far.
Anyway, Abe is also one of their American dads.
Annoyed the American father, the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office will not only investigate Yu Hayami...
After breakfast, it was already around nine o'clock.
Abel didn’t stay any longer, he got on the Cadillac monster, and the convoy set off to London’s Financial Street.
The original Smith Capital (UK), now the UK branch of Smith Financial Group.
Abel stood in front of the LCD TV wall, looking at the London stock market that had already opened and the numbers were constantly beating.
All down, yes, a down day.
But in fact, this is just the trough before the economic recovery.
"Mr. Chairman, according to the latest forecast of the International Economic Cooperation and Development Organization, the neon economy will shrink by about 1.3% and 1.2% in the second and third quarters of this year, and will continue to decline for the whole of next year. The economies of the United States and the Eurozone next year, will also fall separately.”
"Especially in Europe, since the beginning of the new century, due to the long-term sluggish economic growth. Although the euro zone has been formed, it cannot escape the bad luck of falling into economic recession. In Brussels, figures released by Eurostat this morning show that the euro The economy of the 15-nation bloc contracted again by 0.2% in the second quarter."
"In the first quarter of this year, the economy in the euro zone has declined. It is generally believed that if the economy has shrunk for two consecutive quarters, it can be considered as a recession. This is the first time since the establishment of the euro zone that it has fallen into a recession. If compared with the same period last year In the third quarter, although the economy of the euro area rose slightly, it was still lower than the growth in the second quarter."
Abel still maintained the posture of watching the LCD wall without looking back, listening to the latest news reported by Jess, CEO of Smith Financial Group Europe.
Having said that, in these economic recessions, Abel himself also "helped" in it.
Mainly in the area of neon.
Originally, neon is basically similar to the economic recession in Europe and the United States.
The quarterly recession is probably around 0.2%-0.5%.
Maybe even neon is better, because compared with Europeans and Americans, people from East Asian monster houses just have to be more curly.
For late-developing countries, in many cases, "volume" is really the only way out.
If you don’t roll it, it’s probably the ones from India, Africa, and Latin America.
Don't say that Western countries can live a good life if they don't roll.
First of all, the elites in Western countries actually roll better than anyone else.
It is only ordinary people who do not roll, because most of the common people in Western countries cannot climb up no matter how they roll.
Secondly, when their ancestors in Western countries went to sea to rob, they rolled better than anyone else.
Knowing that there are still so many people going to sea in the age of ten dead, five or six, what is this?
If you want to live a good life, latecomers really have to rely on volume.
Of course, the premise is that in the case of crazy rolling, the results obtained by rolling by yourself should be enjoyed by yourself.
Roll to the end, if the results and gains are given to the boss to exchange Porsche for Ferrari, then it’s a fart.
Now, Neon's economic recession data is far behind the United States and Europe.
Here, the dollar/yen exchange rate incident that broke out a while ago contributed at least half of the credit...
The short-term dramatic changes in the exchange rate of the yen have affected the neon economy, which mainly relies on exports.
Combined with a large amount of foreign exchange losses, even the neon people with strong capital will feel a little hurt this time.
In the "post-war" statistics this time, it took Abel almost a month to build a position, and the profit was about 70 billion US dollars.
The key point is that Morgan and Rockefeller are not good at it.
The flesh they cut off from Neon Man is definitely not less than Aber, only more.
Abel guessed that it might be around hundreds of billions of dollars.
Because compared to Abel, who is less qualified, Morgan and the others cut the flesh of Neon people, not only in the international foreign exchange market.
They also shorted the neon stock market at the same time, making money at both ends, much more ruthless than Abel.
These superimposed, placed on the macro economy, the Neon, which was originally in a better situation, fell into an economic recession, which was greater than that of Europe and the United States.
Thinking of this, Abel couldn't help but shook his head and laughed:
"It seems that everyone has no confidence in the future economic situation, which is clearly shown on the market, hehe. Is this really the case? Jess."
"No..." Jess shook his head lightly, "Actually, the situation is not so pessimistic, but rather optimistic."
"According to the minutes of the Bank of England meeting we obtained, the central bank is expected to further ease monetary policy in the next few months and continue to cut interest rates sharply to stimulate the British economy."
“In fact, in the whole world, there must be quite a few central banks with similar intentions. First of all, Neon, France, Germany, and even our US Federal Reserve have already blown the wind.”
"Our analysts concluded that the collective selling of these banks can dispel investors' fears to a certain extent. The global economy will stop the recession at the beginning of next year, or at the end of this year. Adding the inflation rate It is declining, and the global economy will usher in a wave of recovery in the future.”
"According to data released this morning by the Confederation of British Industry, manufacturing orders in the UK rose slightly in March, and expectations for future output are the most optimistic in the past 30 months."
"The higher demand for metals in the auto industry has greatly contributed to the rebound in metal prices, which will put pressure on mining stocks."
"Banking stocks will also be the biggest winners in the future. According to news from the US headquarters, JPMorgan Chase Securities will raise its revenue outlook for the UK banking industry before the US stock market opens, and will also raise the targets for some banks. stock price expectations."
After listening to Jess' report.
Abel turned around, looked at Jess with a faint smile and said:
"It seems that the present is very bad, but the future should be good? Well, this judgment is basically in line with my judgment. I don't think you will miss these opportunities."
The global economy was indeed relatively weak in the past few years.
When George came to power, the economic data was frankly poor.
At that time, many people said that a new economic crisis was coming.
In fact, this economic crisis is already coming.
Only more than ten years ago, the Americans took the Europeans and swallowed the plump red bear carcass.
That wave made Westerners overwhelmed.
The super-financial crisis that was supposed to erupt in the 1990s, or even the Great Depression-level disaster, was abruptly postponed.
But that's just postponement.
After the economic recession in the past few years, it is time to come again.
It's just that the Americans and the major economic powers have introduced various means to rescue the market.
Before myocardial failure, a strong cardiotonic injection is more or less effective.
In parallel time and space, the Great Depression-level financial crisis was abruptly postponed for a few years.
Until a few years later, the subprime mortgage crisis broke out in the United States, which ignited the fuse and led to the emergence of the 2008 financial crisis.
From a macro point of view, the financial crisis in 2008 started almost in the same direction as the Great Depression.
looks even more serious.
At that time, Americans were also extremely pessimistic, and there were not many people who jumped off buildings on Wall Street.
At that time, the rabbit saved the life of an American.
What Huaxia did at the time was actually mainly to save themselves.
And it was also after that wave that Huaxia, which has been flooded, has enough pools and volumes to attract a large amount of foreign capital, laying the foundation for its future rise.
In other words, on the one hand, it saved the life of the United States and allowed the American economy to live for more than ten years.
But on the other hand, Huaxia has also laid a very important foundation for its own rise.
There are advantages and disadvantages, and the advantages and disadvantages are mixed.
Looking at the other party nodding, Abel smiled with satisfaction and said, "How is it going in France?"
In fact, in Europe, the layout of Smith Financial Group and Smith Media is currently mainly in the United Kingdom and France.
A little bit in Italy, a little bit in Germany, not anywhere else.
"The CAC40 index of the Paris stock market in France and the DAX index of the Frankfurt stock market in Germany are both in decline, with a decline of about 1%. The short-term data is not good, but the long-term is also optimistic."
"Hehe, those guys from Vivendi can also make a fortune."
For the Vivendi Group, it is no longer a day and a half for Abel to covet them.
He would very much like to annex the French giant if he could.
But it is difficult, because Vivendi's status in France is similar to that of a large state-owned enterprise in China.
In the past, it was simply a French state-owned enterprise.
Its shareholding is very dispersed, while the French government and the Paris government also hold a large number of shares.
It is now considered Abel's biggest collaborator in Europe.
Well... If you count Universal Corporation in the United States, it is also one of Abel's collaborators in the United States.
Abel has been acquiring its shares, but Vivendi is listed in Paris, London and New York at the same time.
Even the stocks are so scattered, it is extremely difficult to really grasp them completely.
The time has not come, even Abel can only conceal his ambitions for this French business partner.
"Are the lawyers here?"
Abel asked as he walked towards the conference room.
"It's already arrived. The representatives of BMW and Volkswagen Group are also on their way. They will arrive in about 20 minutes."
Abel turned his head to look at his head of the European branch, nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:
"I like your meticulousness, I didn't choose the wrong person. Jess, do it well, I can see it all."
Jess just smiled, and followed Abel step by step.
Different from David Mellon, who was born in a wealthy family, Jess's family background is ordinary and can only be regarded as middle class.
In terms of personal ability, Jess is actually better than David.
But now David has a higher status. He is one of the presidents of the head office and the CEO of Smith Capital headquarters.
Jess has an idea about this, but he also knows that he cannot compare to David Mellon in a short time.
Jess knew well that his boss was actually a very affectionate person, even though he seemed to be a hard-working boss.
When dealing with women, the boss likes him, and he basically doesn't let go.
If you don’t like playing, you have to raise it, and you have a strong collection habit.
Treating subordinates, as long as they are qualified, even if they are not so outstanding, the boss will still trust them.
David Mellon was one of the earliest heroes from the dragon, not even one.
Just for this, Jess knew he couldn't compare.
As long as David doesn't make too many mistakes, Jess also knows that he can only be the second in command.
A group of people waited and walked to the door of the meeting room.
Jess quickened his pace and helped Abel open the door first.
"Thanks."
After Abel said with a faint smile, he saw six people in the meeting room who had stood up to greet him.
He is headed by Timmy Owen, a barrister at Clifford Chance, the law firm he mainly cooperates with in the UK or in Europe.
As well as Abel's personal lawyer, tall and tall, with three-dimensional and profound features, elegant temperament, a white short coat, and a short skirt suit, Aymo Alamuddin looks very capable at this time.
Anne is a "twin sister" with different fathers and different mothers.
"Good morning, Timmy, I have another trouble with you today."
With a sunny smile on his face, Abel hugged Timmy Owen.
The other party laughed and said, "Haha, it's my job to serve you."
Abel smiled and let go of the hug, then shook hands with the others.
When she finally came to Aimo Alamuddin, the latter had a bit of resentment on his face, but she still gave her an intimate salute.
Changed it three times, so it looks a little watery
