Chapter 912 The strange trend of the dollar and the yen
One hundred million US dollars? One hundred million yen, or all three sets. That’s about the same thing. Sarah looked at the other party and felt that she was really wrong this time. These guys are the best at doing business. Now, their company is about to go bankrupt, selling some rags, and it’s still so expensive!
In later generations, Lenovo only spent more than one billion US dollars to acquire ibm's personal computer business department.
These projects are all the results obtained by technicians of Ousheng Electronics after analyzing the market. Among them, LCD panel technology represents the trend of technology. Compared with bulky cathode ray displays, LCD is very light and has no distortion. It is the best choice for portable computers. The instant storage memory is something that can quickly save information at any time. In a personal computer, there is a simple name called memory, which is an important indicator that determines the performance of the computer. Another type is optical disk, which is a new means of storing data, with a much larger capacity than existing floppy disks and hard disks.
It is also very necessary to not obtain all personal computer business and some of the key sub-projects, especially since these projects, Ousheng Company has no technical reserves and starts completely from scratch.
However, it is impossible to get them to spend a lot of money.
"It seems that we can't negotiate any projects this time." Sarah said: "Just treating me here to travel. I heard that the scenery of Akime Mountain here is good?"
They were very interested in seeing the other party’s eyes, but when the words changed, the project failed? Originally, they just raised the price to facilitate the other party to bargain. Even if they hit 30% of the price, they were satisfied. This is their consistent principle in doing business.
But now, the other party changed his face directly, woman, that's it! Kawano Yoshio said: "We can negotiate again in terms of this price. If you want to travel to Akimeyama, our company can send someone to arrange everything for you."
When discussing business, there are often various additional conditions. For example, it is OK to provide travel opportunities for the other party and provide some extra supplements for the other party.
But now, Kawano Yoshio said this and always felt that something was wrong. When the other party came here, he would definitely be sure that he would not let it go so simply.
What methods does the other party have?
"I heard that Toshiba's stock seems to be a little unstable recently?" Sarah asked.
"We are just affected by exports, and when exports recover, the stocks will definitely rise, and this is only temporary." Kawano Yoshio said.
When exports resume? The US's tariff increase policy on other companies has ended, but Toshiba has continued to implement the established policy. Will it be imposed for a year? When will exports be restored? It seems that they are too optimistic.
"Is that true? In order to help your company stabilize its stocks, our Ousheng Company invested a lot of money and purchased your company's stocks on the market. It seems that we are over-considering. Now, our company's capital turnover has some problems. It seems that we need to sell these stocks out." Sarah said.
This sentence shocked Kawano Yoshio. Now, the company's stock has fallen to the lowest point. The other party purchases the company's stock in this way, obviously trying to make a fortune. However, one has to be grateful to the other party, because if the other party sells out the stock, then the company's stock price may have to fall sharply.
No wonder the company's stock fell in the past two days. It turned out that it was acquired by the other party, and it seemed that the other party was holding a lot of it.
"Thank you very much for Ousheng Company's trust in us. How many stocks do you hold?" Kawano Yoshio asked. Now, the negotiations are not going well, and it seems that the other party has already left.
"Not much, it seems like there are billions of dollars."
Billions of dollars! According to the current stock index, it is equivalent to one-third of the market.
If this sentence was said from others, he might not believe it, but it would never be wrong if it was said from the general manager of this top ten large company in the world. These funds are absolutely nothing to Ousheng Company.
If the other party throws these stocks into the market again, it may have to fall by half!
Using stocks as a weapon is also a method of Sarah, a very useful method in the market.
Two mutually friendly companies can hold each other's stocks to achieve the purpose of mutual support and common progress. For competitors, they can also use the other party's stocks to make a fatal blow when the other party is most weak!
Hearing Sarah's words, everyone present stopped talking. Now, the other party asked them to divest their personal computer business and sell it to Ousheng Company. I'm afraid they would have to agree!
"In order to show the friendly relationship between our Toshiba Company and Ousheng Company, we are willing to sell three technologies at preferential prices, each of which is 50 million yuan. How about it?" Kawano Yoshio automatically cut the price by half.
"We can accept 50 million yen per item," Sarah said generously.
Japanese Yen... Kawano Yoshio wanted to refute it, and heard the other party continue: "Also, we hope to hold internal shares of your company as further support for your company."
Toshiba Company's entire group has listed shares accounted for 40%. The other party now requires internal shares, even if the other party only accounts for 15% of the internal shares, and then holds all the listed shares in his hands, it means that the other party will own more than 50% of the shares, and Toshiba Company may be renamed Ousheng Toshiba Company.
This is absolutely not possible.
"Okay, we will decide these agreements for each 50 million yen. As for the company's stock issue, this is a very complicated issue. We need to hold multiple board meetings to decide. So, now we will decide these projects first. What do you think?" Kawano Yoshio asked.
Let’s stabilize the other party first. As for the company’s internal shares, after several months of discussion, it will be up to about one percent of the other party, which is symbolic. By then, the company will definitely have overcome the difficulties. If Ousheng Company wants to sell stocks, then the company will buy them by itself.
Each item of 50 million was reduced by nearly a hundred times. Sarah said lightly: "Then let's sign these agreements first. I'll travel to the island country for a few days. I hope you can give me a satisfactory reply."
It seems that Ousheng Company has made up its mind to occupy the company's shares. Kawano Yoshio knows that it is definitely not easy to lead an ordinary company to become a large multinational company within a few years. Unfortunately, Toshiba Company is now unable to compete.

"Now, the reaction in the market is very strange," said Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volker.
In the United States, there is no central bank, but the US Federal Reserve system is responsible for performing the responsibilities of the US central bank. This system is mainly composed of the Federal Reserve, the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Open Market Committee. It also has about 3,000 member banks and three advisory committees.
The U.S. Federal Reserve System is a private banking system organized in a private form to exercise public purposes. Although the U.S. government does not own shares in the U.S., 94% of the Federal Reserve's profits need to be transferred to the U.S. Treasury Department, and the remaining 6% is used to issue dividends to member banks; at the same time, the U.S. government appoints all senior Fed employees.
Now, they have already sold $20 billion in reserves in the market. According to expectations, the yen should start to decline in the market, but now, the situation is beyond expectations.
The US dollar has no depreciation, and the yen has no appreciation!
On the contrary, the yen has depreciated a bit, from 250 yen to one dollar to 253 yen to one dollar!
James was also a little scratched his head, thinking that at the beginning, just a word from the US Treasury Secretary, the market began to sell the US dollar, which led to the unstoppable depreciation of the US dollar. Many of their tricks were to deal with this possible situation, but now, the US dollar has not depreciated!
What does this mean? It means that the market has already developed a blind confidence in the US dollar!
The US dollar is the only international currency in the world, especially the only currency that settles oil. The price of the US dollar is relatively strong.
"It seems that if we want our currency to depreciate, we need to sell more dollars in the island market." James said. He has no better way to do this now.
He also knew that it was very difficult to make the yen appreciate by relying on the tens of billions of dollars raised by their five countries. They just hope that under their leadership, it would cause international investors to follow suit, so that the heavy responsibility of the US dollar depreciation and the yen appreciation can be completed. The funds in their hands are intervened at critical moments, such as when the US dollar depreciates too quickly, and they have to keep their hands to save the dollar's currency.
But now, it seems that if you don’t use more funds to increase your yen, the yen may not depreciate.
"We need to sell another $30 billion to the market and increase our holdings of the yen. In this way, the yen will definitely rise." James said.
"But in this case, when we encounter danger, we may be unable to resist the risks." Paul said.
"We need to lobby the president and allocate more funds to carry out this plan, and at the same time, let the other four countries also use more funds to carry out this action. We have no way out," James said.
Paul didn't continue. He was thinking about another possibility. In addition to the strong dollar, which made it impossible to get down, it might also be that someone was secretly operating.
However, it is unlikely that anyone will have enough funds and strength to compete with the five major countries? No investment group can...)
