Chapter 145: On the use of the lever spirit Lindgren
At this time, the finance ministers and central bank governors of many European countries that had joined the Mark monetary system gathered in Germany for a meeting.
While they were drinking coffee, they were thinking about how to put pressure on Slesinger later.
Schlesinger’s secretary-general knocked on the door:
"President, there is an uninvited guest outside the venue."
"Oh, who is it?"
"The other party has a lot of background. He claims to be the authorized trustee of Bank of Japan President Mie Yasuyasu on Sakurajima Island, His Excellency Wang Lei, the son of Hong Kong's largest tycoon."
"Wang Lei?" This name often appears on the headlines of global financial newspapers recently.
It can be said that everyone in the financial circle knows about him, and everyone in the circle has heard of his abilities.
The other party has two bluffing people with special titles-the president of the Sakurajima Anti-Short Seller Association and the general counsel of the Big Goose Economic Reform Group.
Everyone else was startled. Did this guy come to their party because he had heard something?
Schlesinger did not dare to neglect and hurriedly asked the secretary-general to welcome Wang Lei in.
Schlesinger, who didn't know whether the other party was friend or foe, had someone add a chair opposite him for Wang Lei.
As for Wang Lei's assistant, Lindgren, he could only move a chair and listen in like many of the bank president's juniors.
Schlesinger noticed Lindgren's old friend as soon as he entered the venue. His eyelids jumped, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart:
"How did this guy become Wang Lei's assistant?"
Countless not so good memories suddenly came to mind.
He didn't even listen to the question from the Eagle Country's Finance Minister.
His slightly "arrogant" attitude angered Lamont, a native of Eagle Country who was always ready to attack.
This Eagle Country gentleman clenched his fists as usual and roared at Schlesinger:
“The finance ministers of 12 countries are here asking you to cut interest rates, why don’t you?”
Schlesinger was startled. Is this Eagle Country man crazy? Does he still want to hit someone?
As the president of Deutsche Bank, he has never seen any big storms, not to mention that Deutsche is the initiator of monetary integration. This is not the time to retreat.
But considering that Eagle Country is the big brother of all countries and its influence is still there, he gave an ambiguous answer:
"Although I am not prepared to cut interest rates, I may consider not raising interest rates."
The Lamont faction of the Eagle Nation was secretly pleased with themselves, feeling that it was their own power that made the Germans make concessions.
The atmosphere of the next meeting suddenly relaxed slightly. Schlesinger was indeed a veteran. He was shrewd and knew that it was not appropriate to confront 12 allies now, so he looked easy to talk to.
Wang Lei saw what he was thinking and decided to dispatch Lindgren when the meeting took a break.
"Lindgren, your attitude as President of the Deutsche Bank is wrong."
Lindgren nodded:
"Something is wrong. The Mark is the leader of many currencies in Europe. How can it be coerced by other countries? In this case, wouldn't the Deutsche Bank lose its independence?"
Wang Lei said irritably:
"Yes, if the world knows that Mr. De is not firm enough, it will definitely destroy the public's confidence in Mark. Wouldn't it give short sellers an opportunity to take advantage?"
Everyone has a national position, don't talk about EU countries having no borders.
Lindgren was no exception. After Wang Lei's guidance, he immediately viewed the matter from a German perspective.
As expected, he was stubborn and found Schlesinger in private.
"President, how can you be so ignorant of the overall situation? If you compromise with other countries, wouldn't Mark lose its due independence and become a tool that other countries can manipulate?"
Schlesinger twitched the corner of his mouth and hesitated to speak. He wanted to explain a few words, but he keenly noticed that the Eagle Country people were looking at him not far away.
"If Germany's economic policies are coerced by other countries, Mark will definitely lose his current leadership position, and you will definitely become a sinner of the country!"
Lindgren was persuading nonchalantly, without noticing that Schlesinger's white face had turned dark purple.
"Asshole, it's not your turn to interrupt what I'm doing, you're just a poor guy who got kicked out by me!"
Wang Lei is blind, so he would use you, a guy who doesn't understand the world.
Lindgren was also getting angry inside, but he still loosened his clenched fists and said angrily:
"You are weak, and you will definitely be hung on the pillar of shame. It will be you who will be despised by thousands of people, and we still don't know who the poor guy will be."
Wang Lei, who was eavesdropping on the side, had the urge to applaud Lindgren. The words that were originally only 10 points lethal, but came out of Lindgren's mouth, had a [-]% strengthening effect.
Sure enough, Schlesinger fell into deep thought. He said nothing in the following meeting. He even expressed no objection to the proposal to establish a unified currency that would be in the interests of all countries.
His silence mistakenly made the Lamont faction of the Eagle Country feel that they had won a great victory on behalf of the country. As long as the Euro system successfully replaced the Mark system, the Eagle Country would once again become the center of Western countries.
As a result, as soon as Schlesinger walked out of the venue, he was full of fire in the face of the rushing reporters.
He does not want to be misunderstood, let alone be accused of "undermining the independence of the Deutsche Bank."
In front of the media from various countries, he publicly stated that he would not be influenced by the pressure exerted by his allies and could not guarantee the future trend of interest rates. He said that the new monetary system deduced by the Eagle Country was stupid.
This is undoubtedly a slap in the face of Lord Eagle Nation in front of people all over the world.
After saying this, Schlesinger wanted to leave, but Wang Lei seized the opportunity and asked:
"Are you not optimistic about the European currency (rough concept of the euro)?"
"I like the idea of a European currency, but I don't like the name "ecu". I would rather (the European currency) be called the Deutsche Mark!"
What Wang Lei wants is his words, which means that the Deutsche Bank's top priority is still to maintain the dignity of the German mark. If other countries cannot keep up with Germany's pace, let them devalue.
After sending Lindgren aside to play, Wang Lei called Robert:
"Robert, you should have read the news. I am sure that Germany will not cut interest rates. While I am shorting the pound, I am also shorting Italy!"
“And Finland and Sweden!”
Of course, Wang Lei also restrained himself. It was impossible for him to short 12 countries at the same time. He knew very well that he had to be the first to hit the target. If he was not greedy enough, he would only push himself to death.
"Okay boss, I also noticed that Italy and other countries are about to collapse. They are indeed a good target. I will short the lira and the Finnish mark at the same time on the basis of shorting the pound."
The two of them were so crazy that they wanted to short four countries at the same time!
If Lao Suo knew that Cayman was shorting four countries at the same time, he would probably be shocked beyond measure, because this is almost something that short sellers dare not try easily.
But Cayman Capital did it without hesitation.
