1027 Around the World Pattern

Of course, if Citigroup itself also takes this kind of contract, it will not be out of the way when the storm comes.

Even Li Changheng himself could not tell when the thunder would explode.

And he also ignored a common sense mistake.

European countries and island countries in 1975 really need US dollars to make settlement currency due to import and export reasons.

However, when the US dollar and gold are not yet linked to oil, the demand for US dollars in countries around the world is not as high as expected.

Sitting in the office of Citi headquarters, Li Changheng looked at Taylor Garner and three very educated Citi analysts and made a report on the prospects of subprime mortgage portfolio financial products in three days.

I was thinking about whether I would like to push the matter of linking US dollars and oil.

According to the report, judging from the total economic and trade volume of the United States with major economies such as island countries and West Germany, the United States has actually been losing money in recent years to support these countries to fight against the red polar bears.

But even so, a large amount of money that can be made by major American companies have been made back by major American companies.

In the end, the island countries and West Germany could make only between one billion and three billion yuan, which made island countries and West Germany and other countries want to use these US dollars to buy high-tech products in the United States, but they have to leave a large part of the money to reserve in case of emergency needs.

In other words, even if these allies want to invest in and maintain their value, they are not as much money as they can actually invest in the real estate and finance fields of the United States.

In this way, if one takeover is missing and just fooling American investors, the prospects for subprime mortgage financial products may not be too high.

If it is just a market of billions and a profit of 2 or 3% is only 10 million to 100 million US dollars, even if Citigroup takes it alone, it will only make a profit of tens of millions to 100 million US dollars.

Not to mention, Citigroup could not have taken over the market for subprime mortgage portfolio financial products.

But as long as the US dollar is linked to oil, the demand for US dollar will increase explosively.

Even if it is a three-month short-term investment, and some interest is collected to preserve its value, the US dollar that appears in the market will be estimated at tens of billions.

Moreover, once the United States and desert tyrants reach a compromise, the local tyrants will relax the oil embargo on the United States, and the Americans will use US dollars to plunder the capital world, so the local tyrants can plunder the United States with oil.

For a long time in the future, the trade between desert tyrants and other countries with capital countries will go from making annual profits of more than one billion to making tens of billions a year, or even reaching a surplus of hundreds of billions in more than thirty years.

With such a huge US dollar in hand and making a fortune, the desert tycoons will definitely be forced to invest in the United States again by the United States.

When I think of it as just Shat, I will have tens of billions of dollars in my hand in the next few years.

Li Changheng immediately made up his mind to help the United States complete the US dollar becoming the settlement currency of oil.

He waved Taylor and others to leave their office. After thinking about it, he picked up the confidential phone number and called several senators.

After meeting, Li Changheng just mentioned the benefits of US dollars as oil settlement currency, and convinced a large number of MPs on his side.

Then they promised that a large number of media under Hearst would follow and interview them in a large number of times in the future.

This kind of thing that is obviously beneficial to the United States and capitalists, can obtain a lot of political capital, and can also show off in front of the people is a irresistible honey for politicians.

Then Li Changheng secretly met several navy bosses, and while suggesting that they could get more military spending while causing trouble.

On the one hand, it was said that the exchange rate of US dollars will rise in the next one or two years.

It is not difficult to find a qualified trader to make a profit of 20 to 30%.

Of course, in the long run, rising exchange rates are not all good.

At the beginning, a large number of countries had to buy a large amount of US dollars to buy crude oil due to demand for oil.

The increase in demand for crude oil payment will inevitably lead to a shortage of US dollars in the market, and the exchange rate will rise.

US dollars are more valuable, which means a significant increase in purchasing power for ordinary Americans and capital. This is a good thing.

But since the US dollar is linked to oil, the US dollar is more valuable and will inevitably drive oil up.

The rise in oil prices once again led to an increase in operating costs in all walks of life in the entire capital world, followed by rising commodity prices and increasing consumer costs for residents.

If the money in the hands of ordinary people is worthless, it will reduce consumption demand. The decline in consumer confidence index will lead to signs of slowing down or even recession in the United States economy.

The exchange rate then fell, the US dollar depreciated again, and the Americans finally had to print US dollars and put them into the market again, using US dollar hegemony to plunder the whole world.

If the Americans play rogue, their allies will have less trust in him.

After the polar bear falls in the future, it is indeed not a big problem to use this trick once or twice, but when the Americans were caught up by the red polar bear in the late 1970s and early 1980s, they would never dare to really damage their credit.

In this way, the degree of US economic recession will be even more serious.

If the economic field was not worse than the bad, the red polar bear would be even worse and invaded Ah Pang Khan again, it would be hard to say who would win or lose.

After talking to the Navy's boss, Li Changheng once again found Randall Hurst and got the media resources.

Then he called Benjamin Arthur, who had just taken over as president. After the two had a secret conversation for a long time, Li Changheng obtained the official appointment of special envoy within a few days and took Anne to a direct flight to London on a private plane.

The negotiations with Downing Street were in great trouble at the beginning.

The English are eager to get rid of the damage caused by the oil crisis and now have the opportunity to bite fat from the United States, of course, the lion is opening his mouth.

Interest-free loans, weapons aid, larger and more comprehensive economic and trade cooperation and discounts, and some political claims, Li Changheng almost threw the table over.

He suppressed his anger and left the negotiating table, and left Downing Street, Li Changheng immediately implemented a preparatory plan.

The next day, I met Thatcher, who had just become the first Conservative Party, at Howard Castle in North Yorkshire.

The meeting was not kept secret from the outside world, because the reason was very simple. Li Changheng hoped to test the pressure on Wilson through the Conservative Party.

Thatcher, because of Wilson's four-time election record, even though his term of office was not long, it forced the conservatives to adopt a strategy of winning over any force that could win over.

Li Changheng is not only able to represent the royal family to some extent, but his influence on the great English nobles and local capitalists in London is definitely a force that no one can ignore.

Not to mention that he is the special envoy of the United States General Barrel this time.
