This statement was agreed upon by everyone.
Most people's gazes toward Johnson softened.
“Okay!” Drucken Miller nodded emphatically. “My plan is to increase our position by 50% over the next three trading days.”
The increase is 50%, or $1 billion.
It sounds like a lot, but in reality, it's still less than one percent of the size of the Quantum Fund.
In reality, even with Quantum Fund's $3 billion position in the Thai baht, the Thai government has never considered abandoning the fixed exchange rate system. In fact, the Thai government has even launched a counterattack against these hedge funds, which they perceive as incredibly greedy.
Neither Drucken Miller nor George Soros anticipated this.
Pengcheng.
High-tech industrial park.
Annie was sitting in Wang An's original seat, listening to the work report from her subordinates.
Chen Dong made this decision as soon as he heard that the Freemasons were going to retaliate and had begun to raise international food prices.
Chen Dong personally went to Great Mao Kingdom to solve the domestic wheat shortage problem. In addition, he also had to personally go to Yulia's side.
In addition, Ma Guoliang and Wangcai, among other operators, were sent to Thailand. On the one hand, they used enemy tactics to prevent the enemy from expanding its capital scale. On the other hand, they also managed to acquire enough cheap grain during this crisis to prepare for the next step of their plan.
As one of Chen Dong's women and his right-hand woman, Annie was naturally sent back to China to appease the troops and handle some thorny issues.
Just like now—
"Mr. An, is there still no news from the boss?"
"Mr. An, I have received several calls from overseas agents. They all have the same story and have sent requests to return the goods."
"President An, the US and European ministries of commerce have sent official letters saying that our electronic products use non-environmentally friendly materials and demanding that we respond to this matter, and also... also demand that we make corresponding compensation for the damage caused to them."
The office was incredibly noisy, and most people were pessimistic about the many problems Longteng was facing all at once.
The mid-1990s was also the period of the surge in people leaving their hometowns to start businesses.
Every industry has all sorts of people, and even for the same product, it's hard to guarantee that the specifications and dimensions are exactly the same, let alone the quality.
This result has led most people to believe that domestically manufactured goods are inferior, counterfeit, cheap, and of poor quality.
Coupled with various reasons such as the late start of China's industrial base, a sentiment of "selling everything we own to buy foreign goods" was spreading.
It is under these circumstances that everyone has high expectations for Longteng Electronics, which has already gone global.
But now, bad news keeps coming one after another, leaving everyone feeling bewildered.
What on earth is going on?
Everything was fine last month, how come there are so many problems now?
What about substandard quality, materials that don't meet environmental standards...?
What is all this?
I dare not speak for other things, but everyone here probably knows how strict Longteng Electronics is in controlling product quality. It's no worse than that of large international companies.
However, when the truth came out, no one connected these events with the Freemasons' suppression. Even fewer people knew that they were simply taking the blame for Chen Dong.
Lin Zhiyuan looked at Annie, who was sitting in the head seat, and pondered, "President An, has the boss given any specific instructions? If we follow the fine issued to us by the US Department of Commerce, not only will we have wasted a year's worth of business, but we will also have to pay a large sum of money in compensation."
Upon hearing this, everyone's attention turned to the woman who was as beautiful as an angel, which was also the question on everyone's mind.
In other words, if the compensation and fines are really paid according to the figures on the ticket, wouldn't that mean the business would go under and everyone would lose their jobs?
Such rhetoric was not only circulating among the upper management, but was also being spoken about in a very serious manner by those below, as if the Longteng Group were really going to collapse at any moment.
For a time, the entire Longteng Electronics, including the Longteng Group, was filled with panic and fear.
Especially at this critical moment when they couldn't get in touch with Chen Dong, their key figure, everyone had different thoughts. This included veterans like Jiang Fei.
To put it bluntly, I'm afraid 80% of the executives have other ideas in mind.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
Annie glanced around, taking in everyone's expressions. Before coming, Chen Dong had warned her that the environment here in China was different from that outside.
What exactly are the differences? Chen Dong also provided an explanation.
The vast majority of people in China are influenced by the concept of "iron rice bowl" (guaranteed job), and they especially yearn for a stable working environment and a stable pension in old age.
Strictly speaking, Chen Dong pays his employees quite a lot of money, but some people feel that although their current salaries are enough to meet their daily needs, there is still a considerable surplus.
But ultimately, with private businesses, who knows when they might go bankrupt? When business is bad, the boss might just close down without warning, leaving no guarantee whatsoever.
The problems we face now are no less than those faced by a company when it is facing a life-or-death test.
In such a situation, it is inevitable that many people will feel emotional, and it may even lead to a large-scale job-hopping situation.
Chen Dong, a person from later generations, has conducted some research on the thoughts of people of this era, and what he said is by no means alarmist.
