    Update time: 2012-10-14

    Liu Dong, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly stretched out his tentacles from the moment he issued the order.  Since the resistance of the Japanese at this stage has been extremely low, although the rising trend of the yen is still not obvious, in the eyes of people like Liu Dong who have been observing, they already know that the Japanese are just at the end of their strength.

    Liu Dong currently has more than 500 million U.S. dollars in capital available.  There should have been more, but due to a series of previous investments, Liu Dong now only has so much cash at his disposal.

    Fortunately, the capital of more than 500 million US dollars is already relatively strong in this war.  You know, although those Americans have huge capital flows, they have to be distributed to everyone, and many people may not have as much as Liu Dong.  So, the money is not that small.

    ¡° If Liu Dong¡¯s funds could be well hidden before, then now, these 500 million US dollars of funds are not so easy to hide.  Everyone who can stand on this huge dining table is not a fool.  If Liu Dong wants to enter the village quietly without the shooter, it is impossible.

    Since he couldn't hide it, Liu Dong didn't bother and simply asked Lin Tianhao to enter the venue openly.  Of course, this so-called openness is just throwing out the shell that has been prepared before.  Liu Dong's true roots still cannot be exposed.

    For this, it is relatively easy to do.  Because at this time, Swiss banks have not yet been under huge pressure from countries led by the United States, and they also have very complete services for anonymous funds.  As long as you are willing to spend a lot of money, Swiss banks will not mind laundering money.

    Although the money laundering industry is not that glorious to begin with.  But due to the Swiss bank system, money laundering can also be done openly.  Of course, this depends on whether you are capable enough to let them do things for you.  It just so happens that Liu Dong is able to do this now.

    So, at the end of July, in the international futures and financial markets, major foreign exchange trading platforms suddenly showed up with a huge amount of funds coming to South Africa.  It mainly targets Japan's futures market and foreign exchange market, and they are all for short- and medium-term transactions.

    The announcement of such a large sum immediately caused a huge disturbance in the international financial market.  Although the recent appreciation of the yen has reached an irreversible trend, this is only an offline operation. On the bright side, the yen has begun to stabilize, and the daily trading volume has begun to slowly decline.  This sudden appearance of funds is like dropping a big stone in a latrine. The chain reaction caused by it is quite strong.

    Not only the Japanese were very angry about the emergence of this capital from South Africa, but even the Americans were very surprised.  Because this fund came so suddenly, it obviously did not belong to any power they knew.

    ¡°South Africa has money, that¡¯s natural.  Because the world's largest gold mine is there, as well as rich diamond deposits, it is not very difficult for them to come up with such a sum of money.

    But, but, this matter between Japan and the United States is thousands of miles away from South Africa.  I have never seen South African funds pouring into this exchange rate war before. This is completely unreasonable.  The relationship between South Africa and the United States is not very close. Their sphere of influence can be considered among European countries, and the United Kingdom has the strongest control over them.

    ¡° Such a capital flow suddenly appeared in Japan¡¯s futures and exchange rate markets during this sensitive time period, which is inherently strange.  Although US$500 million is not too scary in the exchange rate market, at this time, it can cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.  Americans are quite angry about this.

    ¡°But it¡¯s all anger, the Americans have nothing to do with the funds. Others have already entered the market, how can you still stuff them back?  Therefore, after Liu Dong took action, the Americans, who were originally prepared to find the calm before the storm, also took action.  And other financial giants who took action after hearing the news also began to take action.

    "The early bird catches the worm. If you don't take action quickly, who knows if there will be a chance to take action later?"

    Seeing that a group of crocodiles had been mobilized by him, Liu Dong smiled at everyone and said: "See, this is the importance of seizing the opportunity. Our original capital is not as big as these giants. If we want to obtain the maximum benefit,  , we can only get the biggest benefit by taking the first move and seizing the opportunity. Look at those guys now, but they are much more generous than us. If we wait until they take action before we take action, then the harvest will be huge  Less is better.¡±

    "Yes, it's up to you, boss. I originally said we should slow down, but it seems that this matter really can't be slowed down. If we slow down, those guys will seize the opportunity, and our harvest will at least decrease.Three floors.  Now it's really cool for us to take the initiative.  Lin Tianhao also replied with a smile.

    Needless to say, the so-called funds coming to South Africa are of course funds owned by Liu Dong and have nothing to do with the local forces in South Africa.  Although those people in South Africa are indeed very rich.  However, because South Africa is rich in resources, the rich there basically take the industrial route, setting up a few mines for mining, or buying and selling resources.  Regarding finance, people there don¡¯t really have much contact with it.

    It is simply a fantasy to say that those people want to suddenly allocate such a large amount of funds to use in the financial market.  The reason why Liu Dong chose to use the name of South Africa was just to confuse other forces.  Moreover, South Africa is thousands of miles away from Hong Kong, so even if those people want to find the location of the real owner of the funds, it is not that easy.

    All of this is just a smoke screen put by Liu Dong.  Even if those people want to get to the bottom of things, Liu Dong has other means to lead them to other places, such as the Soviet Union.  If those Westerners find out about the Soviet Union, they are guaranteed to be in trouble.  In this way, Liu Dong, who is really hidden behind the scenes, will become very safe.

    There is no way. If Liu Dong didn't have his current identity, he wouldn't be afraid even if people found out.  However, he is the grandson of Mr. Liu of China, which means that he can only play a behind-the-scenes role and cannot be on the stage.

    Being disturbed by Liu Dong, the Americans who originally wanted to reap the results in a stable manner now find it not so easy to want to reap the results in such a stable manner.  Although Liu Dong's capital of US$500 million at the beginning was not very large, Liu Dong was like a troublemaker, disrupting the entire American plan.

    But now, those who were still waiting to see the results have been stabilized by Liu Dong's generous move.  Everyone began to donate generously, which is bound to make Japanese money appear more valuable.  Americans, who originally had many interests to divide, were suddenly disrupted by so much money. It is not so easy to get their own complete share of the cake.

    This also prompted the Americans to negotiate with the Japanese quickly, otherwise there is no telling who will benefit from such a big piece of fat.

    So, in August, the finance ministers and central bank governors of the United States, Japan, the Federal Republic of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom began more frequent meetings.  Discussions began about the depreciation of the U.S. dollar against other currencies.

    The United States is already relatively tired because it has to support Uncle Lantern and fight against the Soviet Union¡¯s shameless invasion of Afghanistan.  He originally planned to cut off a piece of flesh from his little brother Japan's body to supplement his family's income, but he didn't expect that what he was about to get would be snatched away by an unknown force.  If he fails to reach an agreement with Japan, he will not have much fat left.

    Therefore, the United States¡¯ demands on Japan are particularly urgent.  Although the entire Plaza Agreement is participated by five countries: the United States, Japan, the Federal Republic of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom, in fact, except for the United States and Japan, the other three countries are basically here to make soy sauce. Although the depreciation of the US dollar has a negative impact on them  It also has an impact, but they don't have much money, and they don't care about this little calculation by the United States.

    Only Japan, because of its rich wealth, the United States can severely damage their vitality in one fell swoop. If the United States were not their godfather and their fists were stronger than Japan's, Japan would have given up long ago.  But now, Japan can only sit down and discuss the issue of yen appreciation.

    Due to the appearance of Liu Dong, the deployment of the Americans was disrupted. Some of the benefits that could have been obtained now have to be reluctantly given up. Otherwise, if it is delayed for a while, God knows how much the soul of the devil who does not know the details will take away.  Benefit?

    Just as the Americans were speeding up negotiations with the Japanese, Liu Dong had basically all the funds in hand. The rest was just waiting for the signing of the Plaza Accord, and then he sat and counted the money.

    On September 2, at the Plaza Hotel in New York, the Plaza Accord, which was signed by five countries including the United States, Japan, the Federal Republic of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom, was signed 20 days earlier than in previous generations.

    This also means that the substantial depreciation of the US dollar has become inevitable. Japan is destined to be severely poached by the United States in this agreement.  And Liu Dong naturally became the first beneficiary of this agreement.  Others, including the United States, are just picking up Liu Dong's leftovers.

    Of course, since Liu Dong¡¯s capital is not too strong, the remaining leftovers still have a strong temptation.  This attracted those forces that were not eager to participate in the first place to take action one after another to grab the remaining shares.

    The feast that was originally shared by the Americans and their allies was disrupted by Liu Dong, and there were actually moreThere were no forces competing for share in Japan, so the Plaza Accord did not achieve the purpose expected by the Americans. Relatively speaking, it could be regarded as weakening the soft power of the Americans.  This laid a superior foundation for Liu Dong's future actions.

    (There is probably only one update today, and some finishing work is still needed. In two days, the two updates should be restored. I am really sorry for everyone.)
