In 1999, this was a year that made all Blue Star fans feel magical. One black swan incident after another made them feel overwhelmed. It was not until the subprime mortgage market in the United States finally exploded that everyone realized that this problem was really real. It's big.
The subprime mortgage crisis affected more than just the United States. The financial tsunami caused by the collapse of American real estate directly swept across the world. It caused a crisis of insufficient liquidity in Blue Star's major financial markets.
After all, the United States is one of the largest sources of demand in other regions. The sharp drop in demand will definitely damage the economic interests of other regions. In other words, Blue Star trade has been severely hit, because European and American leeks are using money to buy financial products. If we lose money now, it will definitely affect the import and export trade in other regions.
However, now there is a large-scale construction in the Mainland, in Southeast Asia, and even the United States has begun a large-scale construction, all in order to resist the damage caused by the subprime mortgage crisis.
This is just the perspective in the eyes of ordinary melon-eating people. They don't know that it was actually Yingjiang who was forced to build a big business.
In fact, the United States could go all out to print money to spread the damage to all Blue Star players, but the iron-headed boy of ASEAN suddenly expressed his position: "As long as you dare to print money, you will use the U.S. dollar as waste paper to wipe your butt."
At that time, not only ASEAN, but also a large country in the East and Ou Meng were waiting for the United States to express its position. If this was not the case, big news would break out.
In the end, in order for Benjamin to be re-elected, the military-industrial complex was unwilling to engage in such a business that was destined to lose money. Everyone chose another path. A group of people at Goldman Sachs also felt a sense of crisis, so they made some py transactions with Benjamin. This car from the United States The broken car, which was already riddled with holes inside, rumbled onto another road.
Although others have begun to build, Ou Meng is unable to do so because there are too many unscrupulous people in the country. . .
Some companies are struggling to survive, while others are gearing up.
Thanks to the subprime mortgage crisis, Xixi, a European e-commerce giant that many people think is very strange, has actually seen its sales rise instead of falling despite the bad environment, and it has also begun to aggressively acquire some small and medium-sized enterprises. But he was hated by a group of second-rate dealers and middlemen.
To put it bluntly, large-scale protests have not yet started in Europe, and Xixi, an e-commerce platform that specializes in "low-quality and cheap goods," has at least 50% of the credit.
Whenever European and American players have problems with their domestic economies, the first reaction of many people is that there is overcapacity of goods in the market, supply exceeds demand, and the market becomes saturated. However, when calculating this saturation, only the purchasing power of some people is calculated, and others are not. Groups that don't seem to consume are ignored regardless of whether they are large or small.
It was not until the end that the government and the companies that were about to go bankrupt pinched their noses and reluctantly admitted: It turned out that the products on the market were too expensive.
In this case, people who don’t have much money in their pockets are certainly not willing to spend.
At this time, the problem can actually be solved by lowering the price a little. Unfortunately, some people say that the price cannot be lowered, and these people happen to have control of the sales channels.
When Chen Yi was a child, he saw in textbooks that during the Great Depression in the United States, businessmen would rather throw away milk than sell it at a lower price in order to maintain the price of milk. Later, he became very confused about this. Even if it was sold at a low price, it could still be returned. Some money.
But put aside those articles that are clear-cut but confusing.
In short, the middlemen are desperately trying to lower the purchase price and raise the retail price.
The middlemen lowered the purchase price, and dairy farmers could not sell their milk at all. In the end, they had to dump some of it to bring the price back. The reason for not lowering the price for shipments is that as long as they dare to lower the price, the middlemen will continue to lower the purchase price according to market rules. .
When dairy farmers dump the milk, the middlemen will continue to disclose the news to consumers who want to buy milk, calling it a market wave, causing the terminal retail price to continue to rise.
If the milk during the Great Depression in the United States can be dismissed as the fact that no one has the money to buy milk and drink it, then a case that Chen Yi saw with his own eyes before traveling through time can explain everything.
At a certain period of time, the vegetables in farmers' vegetable fields could not be sold for a few cents each, and they ended up rotting in the vegetable fields. However, the market conditions at that time were that the price of vegetables was always rising.
At that time, there was no serious shortage on the consumer side during the Great Depression. In fact, the market situation of the continuous increase in vegetable prices was due to a shortage on the supply side. This phenomenon is almost the same as the principle of dairy farmers pouring milk in textbooks. It can no longer be used as the snake oil of the Great Depression. The reason is explained.
During this whole process, the middlemen actually have enough goods in their hands. Their purpose is to continue to lower the purchase price and increase the sales price. As for whether the upstream suppliers lose money or not, it is none of their business whether consumers can buy the relevant goods. .
Anyway, they have identified a group of customers with enough purchasing power to ensure that the goods in their hands are finished.
But what if these consumers with sufficient purchasing power have no money left in their pockets?
An embarrassing situation arises. There is a large backlog of goods that cannot be sold at all, but no one dares to sell at a lower price. All peers will not let this situation happen. They must maintain the market price of the relevant industry, because They are all waiting for the economic crisis to pass.
At this time, the Erdao dealers finally realized the plight of the suppliers whose prices they had lowered, but the most unlucky ones were those suppliers, because the goods they produced could no longer be sold, and the factories faced the risk of bankruptcy. This was a lack of demand on the demand side, of course. This demand side often does not refer to consumers, but to these second-tier dealers.
Obviously this is a problem with the distribution system. As this problem intensified, a bunch of supply-side companies closed down one after another, and suppliers upstream of the industry chain also closed down and went bankrupt, eventually forming a huge wave of bankruptcies.
Ou Meng and the United States will face this kind of crisis when the subprime mortgage crisis breaks out.
The United States has chosen a method similar to the work-for-relief method, putting a lot of money into the hands of the poor, so as to suppress the problem of insufficient demand on the demand side.
In fact, Ou Meng's way to solve this problem is actually very simple. You can also directly put the money into the hands of the poor, which is what they did in the past.
But now some major players are fine, but those weak players were just too generous in giving out money in the past. Politicians have made a lot of high welfare statements in order to win votes, which is horrifying. Now that there is financial difficulty, this road will not work. .
Or just like the second-hand dealers on the sales side mentioned earlier, they can just lower the price.
However, it is impossible to reduce prices. It is impossible to reduce prices in this life. It is not possible to produce products. Only by increasing prices can we maintain our lives.
At this time, we can only change to another method, let a rich man fall from the sky to save the entire Ou Meng, and Xi Xi, a black-hearted dealer who specializes in inferior goods, comes online at this time.
After the outbreak of subprime mortgages, Li Jie began to buy goods from many companies at a price slightly higher than the cost price, and then sold them on Binxixi at a low price, or further processed and stored them.
Suddenly, a serious traffic jam caused by a group of second-rate dealers who refused to lower their prices was about to break out, but now it has been greatly alleviated.
Players in Ou Meng are also officially aware of the seriousness of the problem, but it is not because of Bing Xixi's actions. At this time, Bing Xixi is still a black-hearted businessman who sells cheap and low-quality goods in everyone's hearts.
The real reason is that many companies are beginning to go bankrupt. After all, no matter how rich Xixi is, it is impossible to buy all Ou Meng's goods, and most of Li Jie's stocks are consumables, so there are still many companies. Bankruptcy due to too much inventory.
A group of players in Ou Meng have long panicked, but their focus is still on those people queuing up in front of the bank to withdraw money, because the power of the subprime mortgage crisis has spread to the European banking industry, and any bank will act as long as there is the slightest sign of trouble. It became a running trend.
