In an auto parts factory on the outskirts of Titanium, Carney was lying on his desk with a painful look on his face.
Two days ago, his factory was doing a booming business, and its products had fixed shipping channels in the United States. It was a very happy life.
But in just two days, everything has changed. After the collapse of the Thai baht, customers only need to pay the same value of US dollars to buy three times the goods before. Who can sustain this approach?
Unless he can reduce the cost to one-third or even lower than before, he will be selling things at a loss, and even with his small fortune, he will not be able to sustain it.
However, those customers in the United States who were usually good friends with his brothers suddenly fell out and demanded that he deliver goods according to the supply quantity in the contract, and the contract stipulated that the settlement must be in Thai baht, otherwise he would have to pay liquidated damages in US dollars.
Faced with this situation, Carney could only file for bankruptcy so that he could save some coffin money. Otherwise, he would have to lose the last bit of coffin money if he really supplied the goods in accordance with the contract.
Now he also understands that his factory will eventually be bought at a low price by those American customers, but it is useless to understand that the Thai baht has collapsed, so what can he do?
He really couldn't understand. There was no natural disaster or alien invasion in the entire Titanium Kingdom. How could his factory be destroyed overnight?
Carney stood up and took one last longing look at the furnishings in the office. This factory was developed from scratch by him more than ten years ago. It is relatively well-known in the titanium industry and will soon leave him forever.
Ding ding ding——
Suddenly the cell phone in his pocket rang. Carney looked at it and saw that it was his account manager at legion, so he answered the call directly.
"Mr. Carney, someone wants to invest in your factory, are you willing to accept it?"
Um?
Carney trembled and said in disbelief: "What you said is true. In this situation, there are still people who want to invest?!"
"Sir, I am only responsible for conveying relevant information to you. You can log in to the corporate community to check the specific situation."
"okay, thank you."
After Carney hung up the phone, his whole body came to life with full health. He quickly sat in front of the computer and logged in to his legion account.
Looking at the content of the post on the screen, Carney felt excited.
His factory is saved!

In a reception room at the Sar Group headquarters in Lampang, Titanium, Eli looked at Henry, the head of Ford Motor's Asia-Pacific region, and said impatiently: "Don't think of me as a bumpkin from other places in Titanium. This is Titanium. Your game has been ruined here. The contract I signed with you is settled in U.S. dollars. Why, do you want to break the contract?"
Henry was choked by Eli's grab for free. sar is Ford's largest lubricant supplier in Southeast Asia, and the other party is not a country bumpkin from titanium country. In other words, the people in titanium north are not as good as other places. Fooling.
However, this time the situation is a bit special. As long as upstream suppliers in other places take out the contract, they will either submit obediently or directly prepare to bankrupt the company so that they can take advantage of the situation.
But only upstream suppliers like Sar Group on Titanium's side don't care about the Thai baht at all. No matter how hard they dive, it won't affect them.
So Henry now took the initiative to come to the door and wanted to lower the price. Even if he couldn't squeeze it to the extreme, he still had to scrape some oil off. Thinking of this, he said with a formulaic smile.
"Miss Eli, I know that Sar Group has sufficient funds, but the collapse of the Thai baht will definitely affect you after a period of time. I can help you tide over this difficulty, all you need is..."
"As long as we lower our prices, Ford will help us get through this difficult time, right?"
"Yes, we will even take the initiative to inject capital into the SAR Group. In this way, the relationship between Ford and SAR will be closer. As long as you can become a member of the SAR board of directors, Ford will definitely help you get through the South Pass."
Old God Henry looked at Eli. He believed that under this situation, the sar group would definitely relent under pressure. After all, no matter how powerful the sar group was, it would be in vain if the overall environment of the titanium country was not good.
Although Eli seems to be of the same kind as them and is not a fuel-efficient lamp, her industry is all in the titanium country. In his opinion, just lowering the price of lubricants has already given Eli a lot of face. Other titans Locals in the country don't get this treatment.
A similar scene also occurred at the headquarters of Nikko Electronics in Lamphun Province. As upstream parts suppliers in Silicon Valley, Roy and his group were also sent by IBM to lower prices.
However, neither Eli nor Roy had any fluctuations in their hearts and even wanted to laugh.
Roy looked at the IBM Asia purchasing manager in front of him and said bluntly: "I'm sorry, after this month's goods are shipped, I have decided to terminate our contract."
"Mr. Roy, why?" The IBM guy was completely confused.
We are just taking advantage, and we are not trying to kill them all. There is no need to be so tough, right?
"Sorry, all the production capacity of Nikko Electronics has been taken over by Majia Company. You also know how popular the Honghuang series of mobile phones are. I can't give up on this big order, so I can only say I'm sorry. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. .”
Roy just said a few words and saw off the guests, while Eli on the other side started to sarcastically make fun of him.
“I really don’t understand, why do you think that Southeast Asia’s economy will collapse because of Wall Street’s actions?
It seems that you have really stayed in the United States for too long and have forgotten that there are not only shorts but also bulls in this world. "
Henry's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat when he heard the word "long", but he immediately had a look of disdain on his face: "Going long in Southeast Asia? Or should I say long in titanium?!
Oh, Miss Eli, I have to praise your thoughts as beautiful as your face! "
Eli just glanced at Henry and turned around and walked towards the reception room. She felt that meeting this idiot and talking so much was a waste of time.
Although Henry didn't know what was going on, he knew that Eli hadn't given him a reply yet, so he wanted to catch up quickly, but Gable stood directly in front of Henry.
Looking at the tall and powerful Gable with an expressionless face in front of him, Henry swallowed and had a bad feeling in his heart. What did Eli mean?
How could it be possible for the Titanium Kingdom to have multiple heads in this situation? !
"Mr. Henry, Miss Eli doesn't want to talk to you, please get out of here!"
Henry looked at the black man in front of him who looked very difficult to mess with. He hesitated and finally left the SAR headquarters with all his heart, because he felt that if he didn't do what he said, something bad would happen.
. . .
Just when Eli and Roy were picking up the guests, Taibei's counterattack had already begun.
Large and small factories, mines, plantations, and farmland in other parts of the Titanium Kingdom were either controlled by capital injections or purchased directly at low prices.
Soros and his group were caught off guard. These assets were originally part of their plan to buy the bottom. In the end, they might only need one-fifth or even less than the usual price to acquire them. But now someone is buying them at one-third of the price. Started to cut off halfway.
But before they could recover, they received another shocking news.
“Someone is buying Thai baht in the market!!!”
