At this time, Li Jiapo was still in the afternoon.
But in the Asian market, the red and green armies have also begun to fight to the death on screens large and small.
This time Chen Yi did not engage in any clearing operations. The pound is no better than the lira, which has always been one of the key currencies in the world.
Before World War I, the pound had always been the most important means of international payment and reserve currency in the capitalist world. Although its status as an international reserve currency declined after World War I and was gradually replaced by the U.S. dollar, it has always been One of the important means of payment in the world besides the US dollar.
To attack the pound, whether it is Chen Yi, Soros or other short-selling capital, they all need the participation of comrades in the beginning to open up the situation and slowly consume all the funds that Ingoland Bank can mobilize.
According to the history of Chen Yi's previous life, some small-scale hot money or retail investors took the lead, and then Soros launched a fierce attack. In the end, other predators followed Soros to share this crazy feast.
But now Chen Yi creates a scene where retail investors all over the world are running away, and everyone can't sit still.
The direct reaction was that the pressure on Norman's group at Ingolan Bank increased sharply.
In the Fog City, Ingolan Bank, Norman was roaring angrily. It was obvious that Chen's actions were gradually increasing, and the entry of Soros and other big players made the situation gradually turn from a stalemate to a collapse.
"Damn! What's going on? Has short capital entered the market again? Hold on, it must be above 2.80! Continue to allocate 3.3 billion pounds of foreign exchange reserves and speed up buying. Hurry up, you bastards !Why are you moving so slowly?”
Alan said in fear: "Sir, we are short of manpower, and there are too many empty orders on the other side! They sell them much faster than we can buy them!"
"Then why are you still standing here? Hurry up and mobilize more manpower to operate!"
After hearing this, Allen fled out of the office as if he had been granted amnesty to contact the convening personnel. He never wanted to face Norman's foul mouth in this office again.
Ten minutes later, Norman watched with heartache as the price of the pound gradually dropped.
2.7996
2.7985
2.7934
2.7912
Watching the pound slowly falling, every minute and every second was the most cruel torture for him.
finally.
2.7926
2.7931
2.7932
2.7930
2.7931
The stalemate resumed, and Allen apparently found another group of traders to conduct buying operations.
call--
Norman finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the price slowly rising during the stalemate. Although the qualified price was still a bit low, it didn't matter. Stabilizing the situation was the most important thing now. Don't let others lose confidence in the pound.
The worst has not yet come. As long as the speculators can be killed, the status of the pound cannot be questioned.
Unfortunately, he didn't know at this time that his opponent was not one or a few international capitals, but the deep-water predators in the world's futures market who were ready to take a bite of the pound.
Twenty minutes later, the stalemate took a turn for the worse.
2.7931
2.7925
2.7910
2.7902
2.7898
"What's going on! Didn't I tell you to stay calm? What on earth did you bunch of pigs do!" Norman no longer cared about social etiquette at this time and cursed all the ugly words.
A trader said aggrievedly: "Sir, we have no money!"
"What? The 3.3 billion is gone so quickly, it's only half an hour!?" Without caring about anything else, he immediately called the president of Ingoland Bank, "Robin, hurry! I can't hold on this way. No, continue to mobilize 10 billion in foreign exchange reserves!"
"Well, Norman, just to be on the safe side, I'll hand over the remaining foreign exchange reserves to you."
"Okay, thank you, Robin."
Less than a minute after hanging up the phone, all the funds arrived, and the situation finally reached a stalemate again.
Only then did Norman have time to ask the people around him: "How much money do we have left?"
"Sir, there are only two hundred billion left...Wait a minute, there are less than 20 billion now!"
Norman felt his heart twitch. At this speed, it seemed that another predator had joined in!
no!
If this continues, there will definitely be insufficient manpower.
Thinking of this, he quickly called some of his friends.
But. . .
"Jimmy, I need a lot of traders now, can you help me? What? Not enough people? I..."
"Tom... you don't have enough manpower?"
"Mark...Okay, I get it."
"..."
For some reason, all the people Norman looked for said they didn't have enough manpower. Thinking of this, he lamented.
He understood something in his heart. They were probably shorting the pound too. Of course they didn't have enough manpower!
Although he was very angry, he still suppressed all his thoughts in his heart at this moment. Now was not the time to talk about this, he had to think of a solution quickly.
He called Sister Mei again, "Prime Minister, I don't have enough traders here... Okay... Okay... I understand..."
After hanging up the phone, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Sister Mei promised him that she would help him find a group of people to join their team to defend the pound.
At this time, Norman could only watch the red and green sides continue to stalemate on the computer screen, not knowing when it would end.
. . .
Two hours later, Hong Kong Island, at the villa of Governor William on the Peak of Victoria Peak.
"William, it's fallen! It's fallen! It's almost falling to the ERM limit price of 2.7780!"
"Awesome! I love that green Franklin so much!"
At this time, William, who was supposed to be waiting for orders from the foggy city, was watching the battle between red and green on his specially equipped 100-inch LCD screen with a group of Hong Kong Island government officials in his living room.
Even Director Chen, who was supposed to be on standby at the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, was among the crowd.
"Hahahaha, great, it finally fell. The New World really didn't lie to us!"
"Yes! This is really the wisest decision in my life."
Suddenly someone raised a question, "William, what if the Fog City lets us use the foreign exchange reserves of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority?"
As soon as these words came out, the living room suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned their attention to Director Chen.
"Ahem, I don't care. Anyway, it's time for me to retire soon, and my whole family has been sent to Yangcheng by me.
After I earn enough this time, I will go to the Mainland to work as a consultant for Xinghuan Technology. No matter where I go in the Mainland, I will not be a person of status and status. Those gangsters in the foggy city want to treat me like a dog. There are no windows!
The Mainland is the territory of the New World. Those MI6 guys have the guts to come to the Mainland to do something for me! "
Okay, the biggest problem is gone, everyone feels relaxed. What do they have to worry about now that they have someone to take the blame?
"Then let's do it. When the time comes, we may be forced to do something extraordinary under the orders from Fog City, and the scene may not be pretty. Chen, please bear with me."
"It's okay, I understand. Besides, the Fog City side may not be able to survive until that time. Maybe it will be over in a while?"
After hearing this, everyone started to complain about the foggy city again.
"I hope so, that would be the best, it would save us the effort of acting, fuck! What's wrong with us making some clean money! Does this have to concern us!"
"That's right! Those people in the Fog City only know how to order us to do this and that! Do they know that we are next to a military power with a population of more than one billion? Even if they don't dare to tell us, there are still so many ways to do it. Get rid of us!"
Well, it seems that Chen Yi's butterfly effect is quite big, and now a group of people in the Hong Kong Island government have become Dihua elements, but the biggest reason may be that he agreed to bring a group of people on the bus.
Although this group of people didn't know the size of the funds he was operating, they still scraped together to collect 200 million US dollars and gave it to Chen Yi to operate. Chen Yi reluctantly took them to play. After all, the more ammunition, the better.
At the same time, a conference room in the Central Administration Bureau was also bustling with activity.
"It's fallen! It's fallen! Hahaha, Norman's shovel wants us to count, let's go and have fun! They have too much time to take care of themselves. After today, he will probably step down. He won't take the blame for this. ?”
"That's right. They're all in trouble over there in Fog City, and they still want to care about us? You're not awake yet!"
"I didn't say anything. I will retire when I make enough money this time. Why are you so afraid of them?"
"..."
Well, it seems that the police force is no longer interested in ghosts. Even when Fog City asked them to go to various societies to collect money to support Ingoland Bank, no one responded.
The ICAC, the only one who still listened to Wudu's words, looked in the direction of West Kowloon and sighed. He didn't even go to West Kowloon when collecting numbers.
How much can you charge? Anyway, it’s just a question of meaning. Otherwise, who would be willing to do it with all their heart if I would take the blame and still get no benefits?
Well, Hong Kong Island is destined to be a sleepless night today.
. . .
At the same time, Holland, Amsterdam De Wallen, Fallen Angel Hotel.
"Now start paying attention. Let's adjust the speed. Let the hot money confront the opponent first. We will wait until Ingoland Bank's funds are almost exhausted or there are other changes before we launch a general attack."
The electronic sound from the radio echoed in the presidential suite.
"OK."
After Chen Yi gave the order, the situation became so strange that the pound began to stalemate around the ERM minimum of 2.778.
