In 1990, the island nation's stock and real estate markets were booming!
It has reached the point where everyone is investing in stocks.
Everyone was waving banknotes as they ran forward.
They completely disregard stocks with a price-to-earnings ratio exceeding 100.
Some experts from island nations, along with economists from other parts of the world, added fuel to the fire by telling the world...
"Traditional economic theories do not apply to island nations; island nations are creating new economic laws."
Not only that!
The real estate market in island nations is truly amazing.
The value of a plot of land in Tokyo is enough to buy the entire United States.
Isn't that ridiculous?
However, nobody cares about any of this.
The economic boom made the people of the island nation forget their defeat and the pain they had suffered, and they became arrogant and conceited.
And it started a "buy, buy, buy" mode all over the world, to the point where people could buy whatever they wanted.
I'm rich, so I can do whatever I want!
The United States, a symbol of financial empire, Rockefeller Center—one word: buy!
The symbol of American cinema, 'Columbia Films,' let's buy it!
Everyone was stunned by the sheer scale of the island nation's spending.
Canadian forests, Australian iron ore mines, the most expensive houses in Hong Kong... whatever they could fancy, they brought under their control.
Data shows that...
Women from the island nation have bought up 70% of the LV handbags produced in France.
Men from island nations often fly to Thailand in droves to play golf.
How can the United States tolerate such arrogant islanders?
Not to mention the United States, even the conglomerates hidden in other Western countries have had enough of the arrogance and domineering attitude of the island nation.
If you've made money, you can just show off in your own backyard, but you have to go to someone else's territory to flaunt your power.
My uncle could tolerate it, but my aunt couldn't.
I told you, if we don't mess with you, who will we mess with?
key!
You're still a defeated nation, you son of a bitch.
A country that is not allowed to establish an army.
A country without the protection of an army is like a naked beauty flaunting herself in front of a group of strong men.
The result was predictable!
In reality, ever since the island nation was forced to sign the Plaza Accord in 1985, it has become a lamb to the slaughter.
As for when to take advantage of the deals, that's not up to them.
Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad!
A young manager from Nomura Securities stood on the steps next to the building, pointed at the newly completed 60-plus-story granite tower, and made a series of outrageous remarks.
"The world has now entered the information economy, and this building stores the economic data of our global clients."
"To ensure the security of this information, Nomura Securities has a power station 100 meters downstairs. It can ensure that Nomura Securities can continue to operate normally no matter what happens in the world."
This young securities manager never imagined that two years later, the island nation's economy would cease to function properly.
The Nikkei index also fell from its highest point to a low in less than two years.
The real estate market plummeted. In 1990, one could buy a Tokyo that was half the size of the United States, but by 1993, one couldn't even afford a New York City.
As a result, island nation companies rushed to repatriate funds from overseas to alleviate the crisis, even selling Rockefeller Center back to American citizens at half price.
They also sold several of the island nation's major banks and insurance companies to Western capitalists...
As for the common people...
Countless LV bags are flooding the secondhand market; the once-luxury item has become completely unwanted.
Since then, the island nation's economy has been in a slump for more than 20 years.
......
Thinking about all this, Chen Dong looked at Henry and said.
"Wangcai, I've decided to trade Nikkei 255 stock index futures. You're welcome to become my trader."
"real?"
Henry was overjoyed upon hearing this and said happily.
"Boss, rest assured, 'Wangcai' is an absolute professional in this area. I guarantee it will help you earn enough 'Mane'."
"No, no, no, Wangcai, I think you've misunderstood me."
Chen Dong shook his head, his tone resolute.
"What I mean is, you can trade, but you must follow my instructions. You have to promise me that."
Upon hearing this...
Henry's gaze lingered on Chen Dong's face, and he hesitated for a moment.
"Boss, you might not be aware of the risks involved. What if you make a wrong judgment..."
"No need, I will bear the loss myself. You just need to do as I ask."
"...Fine, fine, you're the boss after all."
Henry shrugged and said with a hint of helplessness.
At this point, he had given up all hope.
Nothing more!
Don't be fooled by the HK$15 million in Chen Dong's account; when converted to US dollars, it's only a little over US$2 million.
This amount of over 2 million US dollars seems like a lot.
In the stock index futures market, it couldn't even make a ripple.
"Wangcai!"
"I must remind you that once you enter the transaction phase, you cannot have any contact with the outside world."
Hearing this, Henry was completely stunned.
It's not that such a request is excessive.
On Wall Street, once an investment bank selects a target and launches an attack, it will have similar requirements.
They might even sign confidentiality agreements.
However.
The young man with yellow skin and black hair in front of me actually made the same demands.
