Tonight, no one falls asleep on xiangdao, and so does long Jianhua.
Before he left the office, he sat in front of the window. The office was dark and sat quietly all night.
At seven twenty, yuwenxing rushed in from the outside.
"It''s a mess, it''s all a mess! There are ghost shops smashed everywhere and messy streets everywhere. According to the news just received from the bank, the exchange rate has fallen by 5%, and now it has fallen to 5.2. "
Long Jianhua turned back to his chair and looked at him in amazement.
The Hong Kong dollar needs to depreciate, which is a trend.
During this period, due to the reform and opening up of the mainland, the two countries had conducted negotiations on the issue of Hong Kong Island. Coupled with the prevalence of stock market speculation, those ghosts were not optimistic about the future of Hong Kong Island and prepared to withdraw one after another, resulting in the withdrawal of a large amount of funds and the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar all the way.
In the middle of last year, a US dollar can be exchanged for HK $4.5. Yesterday, it was exchanged for HK $4.8.
In the past, this trend did not reach the bottom until September 1983, when the lowest level of HK $9.6 to US $1 was replaced by a fixed exchange rate of 7.8 on October 15, 1983.
He worried last night that if the situation worsened again, the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar would accelerate.
Sure enough, it plummeted by 5% overnight.
In previous lives, this would be the exchange rate that could not be reached until 1982.
If this trend is allowed to develop, the process will speed up and eventually drop to what extent?
There is a trend of exclusion. Will the eagle government rescue the market?
Long Jianhua''s tone is very dignified, "Yusheng, this problem is very serious."
"You mean the exchange rate? In my opinion, the falling exchange rate is conducive to the export of xiangdao commodities. "
"We are also the direct beneficiaries. We paid nearly 5% less for the land last time; If you continue to depreciate, you will pay more less. "
"Long Sheng, I really admire you. We have always changed Hong Kong dollars into US dollars. As a result, it rose by 5% overnight."
Yuwenxing doesn''t think so.
In his opinion, this is a good thing.
Chongshi only paid 10% of the land winning the bid, and the balance is only required to be paid within three months.
With this calculation, I made a lot of money.
Long Jianhua shook his head. "For xiangdao, devaluation will not have much impact. Because the vast majority of goods are exported, and the production capacity is only so large. On the contrary, those who need imported raw materials will immediately fall into financial difficulties, which may lead to a wave of bankruptcy. "
"What''s more, it has a greater impact on the local economic development of xiangdao. Because this is not natural, but the result of this exclusive situation. Those foreign capital may be withdrawn quickly. The stock market is already volatile and is likely to collapse, as is real estate. "
"For ordinary people, rush buying due to the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar and unemployment due to the closure of enterprises will really affect their lives."
Yu Wenxing was stunned.
He never thought that devaluation would bring so many serious consequences.
"Why don''t we change all the more than $1 billion into Hong Kong dollars to save the market?"
He immediately rejected himself, "no, this is a trend. If you throw this beautiful knife in, you can''t see one blister."
"Longsheng, what do you think we can do now?"
"First, the payment for purchased raw materials is changed from quarterly settlement to monthly settlement. In case of special financial difficulties, cash on delivery can be used; Second, speed up those construction projects, which can absorb more people within half a year or even a year; "
"Third, stabilize and expand production and attract more people for employment; Fourth, speed up the pace of building factories in the mainland and recruit some people to the mainland; "
"Fifth, speed up the construction of the two factories of instant noodles and ham sausage in the Japanese island, so that some people can work there."
"One more thing, the land fund can be paid before the deadline."
Yuwen nodded.
As an enterprise, it can only do these and can also do these.
It is impossible for him to rescue the market with a beautiful knife.
This is the measure that long Jianhua thought out all night. He can only do this.
In those days, the eagle Kingdom paid a high price for stabilizing the Hong Kong dollar.
They are supported by super land rent and many taxes.
What does rebirth have? In addition to more than $3 billion, the rest is solid industry, or an honest and practical life with both hands making money.
"Yusheng, we can do little. We can only help our raw material suppliers and limited unemployed workers."
"As long as they are willing, the British Hong Kong government can do a lot, and this is their responsibility."
Yu Wenxing nodded, "this, I also know."
……
Long Jianhua and Yu Wenxing came to the governor''s office at eight o''clock.
I made an appointment yesterday afternoon. I can''t delay it because of what happened last night and this morning.
The governor of Hong Kong, meiruikao, has not stood them up because of the storm last night and this morning. He has been waiting there with two directors and four directors. Lawrence and ponygo are also listed.
For meiruikao, long Jianhua still admires his wrist.
As a diplomat who has never been in charge of local government affairs, he has worked in xiangdao for 25 years and brought xiangdao into the ranks of the four little dragons in Asia. It is really amazing.
Meiruikao didn''t let long Jianhua speak first, but began by himself, "Mr. long, I heard you complain that we treat Yingguo enterprises differently from xiangdao enterprises, which has caused such a big storm. I want to hear your opinion."
Long Jianhua was noncommittal. "Governor, I heard that Luoluo company sold aircraft engines and technology to the north in 1974. That''s the real military."
"I didn''t expect that our instant noodles and ham sausage products and technologies were related to the military. Director Lawrence and director Pang Yige didn''t say a reason."
"As a law-abiding enterprise, I have reason to ask what is the basis of this decision. This is also the reason why we come to appeal to the governor today. "
Merrick asked bluntly, "what kind of result do you want?"
Long Jianhua smiled. "Governor, this is not what I want, but what attitude the government can give to enterprises like us within the framework of laws and regulations."
"Under the governance of your Excellency the governor, xiangdao has become a society ruled by law. Our enterprises do not need special treatment, nor can they have privileges beyond the laws and regulations. We just want to abide by the rule of law and act under the explicit laws and regulations; If so, it is fair. "
The sheriff next to him hummed heavily, "Mr. long, your speech yesterday was very bad! This situation in xiangdao is all because of you; You should take full responsibility for this incident. "
Yu Wenxing leaned forward, "Sir, you should pay attention to your words. You are using your power to intimidate Mr. long. We are telling the truth. It has nothing to do with what we said yesterday. "
