Lu Feng dialed Sean's private number. It was morning, and Sean sounded a little drowsy, probably woken up by Lu Feng's call.
"Who is this? What time is it and you're calling already?" Sean's voice was tinged with displeasure.
"Excuse me for disturbing your sleep. It's me, Lu Feng from Jiafeng Group. Do you remember me?" Lu Feng asked.
After hesitating for several seconds, the other party finally said, "Mr. Lu, it's been a long time since we last contacted each other. What brings you here?"
"Of course I'm asking you for a way to make money. You should know about the recent international shorting of the Thai baht, right?" Lu Feng asked.
"Of course I know. I've connected many funds with them. What are you trying to do?" Sean's voice sounded much more sober.
"As you know, I have a very good relationship with the Thai prince. To put it simply, the decision Thailand is currently implementing was made with my help. They are unwilling to be shorted and have decided to fight back in this way. In other words, how much the Thai baht will fall has nothing to do with the short sellers. As long as Thailand is willing, it can depreciate wildly!" Lu Feng said into the phone.
Sean, who was very knowledgeable about finance, immediately understood the business opportunity upon hearing this. He sat up in bed and said, "Join Thailand to go long on the Thai baht?"
“That’s right! And these international funds shorting the market are huge. If we can drive the price up within half an hour, none of them will be able to escape. The problem now is that we lack funds. That’s why I called you to try and solve this problem,” Lu Feng said.
The person on the other end of the phone hesitated for a while before saying, "Are you sure you can control the Thai side?"
"Why don't you believe me? In a normal country, who would do something like this? So many funds on Wall Street have probably invested at least several billion US dollars. The lion's share is already in their pockets. Thailand is indeed powerless to resist. The final blow will break through all defenses!" Lu Feng thought for a moment and continued, "At that time, Thailand will cause the baht to depreciate wildly. With the catalyst of news, they will push the baht up within an hour and crush the short sellers!"
"Should we bring it back to twenty-five?"
"No, we're not saying we're going to pull the price of the Thai baht back down. As long as we bring the price down to below 35, the short sellers will have to take chips from you if they want to escape, and they'll pull the Thai baht back down to 25." Lu Feng explained to him how reliable this was.
As long as a large amount of capital enters the market at the bottom, a rapid surge in price in a short period of time can absolutely strangle Wall Street. Most importantly, the cooperation from the Thai side is crucial, as they will also have a large amount of capital entering the market to cooperate.
Sean on the other end of the phone was already tempted. With these conditions, as long as he found a few large funds, raised five billion US dollars, and with Thailand's cooperation, it would be no problem to blow up Wall Street.
“If everything is true, I can help you find some funds, but there’s a condition: we must go to Thailand to meet with them in person, and we might even need to sign an agreement privately,” Sean said solemnly.
“No problem, but you need to be quick. It’s best to get it done within three days. The Thai side really can’t hold out for long,” Lu Feng said.
"I'll contact a few major fund companies today!"
After the two finalized the deal, Lu Feng hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there were funds willing to come in and fight back, Thailand wouldn't lose completely!
"Let's eat first!" Jiang Xiaoyan called out towards the door.
"You guys eat first, I'll make another call." Lu Feng said, glancing into the house before walking away and dialing Su Yourong's number.
When the call was connected, the person on the other end sounded a bit slurred and spoke very loudly.
"What happened? Did you kiss someone and get bitten?" Lu Feng asked.
"Fuck you!" Su Yourong shouted into the phone, "Who are you? Call me!"
"I am Lu Feng!"
"I drank a bit too much and just threw up. I'm really happy tonight!" Su Yourong was half-lying on the sofa, struggling to sit up, but she didn't have the strength. Her gorgeous evening gown became a floor mat.
"Well, it should be about the right amount. I wanted to tell you something, but you've drunk so much, so never mind. You should get some rest." Lu Feng said a few words of comfort.
"My stomach isn't feeling well, you said you love me! Say it!!" Su Yourong shouted, her phone falling off the sofa. Her face turned pale, and she could no longer support herself, collapsing completely to the floor.
"What are you talking about? Go to sleep early, I'll call you tomorrow. It's a big deal, definitely going to make a fortune, that's all!"
"I don't want money now, I want you!! I want you to be with me, fly over here right now to be with me!" Su Yourong's words were cut off midway through the call.
The arrogance on her face disappeared, and she just sat there coldly. After a while, the churning in her stomach made her gag, but there was nothing left to vomit.
The room was extremely quiet. She casually pulled the silk blanket that had cost several thousand dollars off the sofa, lay down on the floor, and began to sob.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Feng called Maha again and told him that funds from Europe would be coming, but a face-to-face meeting was required. He asked Maha to arrange for the relevant personnel and departments in China to handle the matter, and that he could also go as a witness if needed.
It was already past nine o'clock at night when Lu Feng finished the call. He went home, ate a quick meal, and listened to Jiang Xiaoyan talking about expansion again. She was looking at factories in Tianjin and had a discussion with the leaders of the industrial park there, but things weren't going well. She asked Lu Feng if he could make a call and ask for a piece of land in the Jiafeng Chip Factory Industrial Park for free.
Lu Feng originally wanted to talk to her about how even if they got the land for free and were exempted from taxes for two years, the investment in construction costs, shipping, and land transportation would result in huge losses in the next few years.
