Counterattack 1990

Chen Dong woke up and found himself reborn in 1990, a time when gold was everywhere. Carrying the regrets of his past life, he started by selling tea eggs...

Financial crises, oil crises, gra...

Chapter 816 A Warning from Within the Country!

Li Xiaoman and Zhang Zhongneng were able to sit in senior management positions not because they were incompetent, but because they had rich experience in financial operations. They immediately understood Chen Dong's meaning: he wanted them to be the leaders in the market.

"Just the two of us?" Zhang Zhong blurted out.

Chen Dong smiled and shook his head. "Do you think that's possible?"

Zhang Zhong blushed.

He was also blinded by concern.

Given Chen Dong's connections, his position in the financial industry, and his achievements, he must have already contacted numerous banks to work on this project.

Chen Dong had already made his stance clear: he wasn't going to do it alone, but rather to bring together numerous banks to do it together.

"Given the current fragile sentiment among investors regarding the Mexican peso, we need to add another straw, the final straw, which is to bring in the foreign exchange trading departments of commercial banks and have them join the short-selling camp." Chen Dong no longer made things difficult for Zhang Zhong, but instead revealed his plan.

"With this ebb and flow, the fate of the Mexican peso is sealed," Li Xiaoman said, her eyes wide open, sparkling, particularly charming and spirited.

Chen Dong glanced at it, then pretended to look away casually.

Those eyes are so captivating; I can't look at them too long. If I do, I'll get lost in them.

As financial professionals, all three knew that commercial banks played an extremely important role in currency exchange.

This is especially true for Mexico, where the capital account is completely open.

Although there may be many commercial banks in a country, most of the capital is usually controlled by a few large commercial banks.

Finally, Li Xiaoman and Zhang Zhong exchanged a glance and understood each other's thoughts.

It was Li Xiaoman who spoke again, "We can do this. We will do our best to persuade the board of directors to agree to this operation."

Zhang Zhong added, "I believe there shouldn't be any major problems. Regardless of the final outcome, selling dollars in advance can generate a profit."

In Mexico's banking system, banks like HSBC and Standard Chartered are not considered large, but they can play a leading role. As long as they take the lead in selling dollars, they can create a leading effect.

They also realized that Chen Dong approached them not because he had no other choice, but because of his trust in them and their greater familiarity with each other.

At the same time, it's also because Chen Dong has dealt with them a lot, and he believes he can persuade them to join him in the same trench.

They and Chen Dong believed that even if they didn't disclose the information to others, relevant practitioners would definitely discover the abnormalities in the Mexican financial market.

With a little investigation, they can quickly assess the situation and take appropriate action.

This creates a snowball effect, where the snowball grows bigger and bigger until it becomes uncontrollable.

The reason they can freely exchange Mexican pesos is mainly because the Mexican government imposes no restrictions on the flow of capital, but only some restrictions on foreign banks entering the domestic market.

Right in this office, a series of strategies targeting the Mexican financial market were finalized.

Of course, to finalize those things and put them into practice, a lot of persuasion work and follow-up operations are still needed.

After seeing Li Xiaoman and Zhang Zhong off, Chen Dong busied himself for a while before preparing to go home.

He's been doing this lately because he wants to go back and be with Vivian Chow as soon as possible.

He would often set off from here to Zhou Ji Congee Shop in Yau Ma Tei to pack two servings of sweet soup to bring to Zhou Huimin.

Lately, she's become obsessed with this sweet porridge.

He also knew that sweets could give people a feeling of pleasure and enhance their psychological well-being, so of course he would satisfy her request.

Although she started complaining that she had gained some weight, Chen Dong didn't think it was as exaggerated as she made it out to be. After all, she had been going through a lot of suffering recently and was very thin.

"It would be best if you raised her to be plump and healthy!" Chen Dong said affectionately as he hugged her.

A few days later.

Early in the morning, Chen Dong insisted on waking Zhou Huimin up as well, so that she could exercise with him.

He found that his mood always improved after working up a sweat.

This should also be useful to Vivian Chow.

At this moment, Chen Dong, along with a somewhat reluctant Zhou Huimin, was sweating profusely alongside Wolong and the others.

Suddenly, the assistant ran over with a phone: "Boss, the phone!"

As soon as the call connected, Chen Dong heard Secretary Wang's hearty laughter.

"Brother Wang, why are you calling me so early? Is something wrong?"

"Hehe, can't I call you if there's nothing wrong?" Secretary Wang asked with a smile.

"Of course! But calling me internationally just for a casual chat isn't like you."

Upon hearing Chen Dong's words, Secretary Wang could only smile and say, "Alright, actually I mainly wanted to remind you that the Freemasons have their eyes on you."

Chen Dong just smiled nonchalantly, "Hehe, I already know their power and their nature. I know they hate me to the bone and are constantly looking for opportunities. They certainly won't give up on causing trouble easily."

“We can’t let our guard down. We’ve only just learned how powerful the Freemasons are,” Secretary Wang said gravely. “Old Lin told me to tell you to be careful. If anything happens that you can’t handle, seek help from the local embassy.”

Chen Dong was taken aback: "Is it that serious?"

"Yes, you haven't been paying attention to international grain prices these past few days, have you?" Secretary Wang asked.
