The richest man

Chapter 218
PS: Chapter 218 has been unsealed~ If you haven’t read it yet, go read it first
With the participation of scientists and engineers from the giant bear country, the scientific research force has been fully supplemented.

The laboratory of Legend Technology Company is full of talented people, and the progress of many research and development projects is advancing by leaps and bounds.

The technical information obtained from the Giant Bear Country is also very important, worth at least 200 billion U.S. dollars, but in the Giant Bear Country, it is something that no one cares about, and was bought by Zhang Jun at the price of cabbage.

In Shenzhen Shekou Industrial Zone, Legend Electronics Factory has added a lot of advanced machinery and equipment. If you buy it through formal channels, it will cost at least more than 20 billion US dollars. However, Zhang Jun bought it from the giant bear for almost the price of selling scrap iron.

These will not go into detail.

Even Standard Chartered made more than $40 billion from it.

The China Energy Company is probably the most profitable company. It borrowed rubles from Standard Chartered Bank frantically, and then bought coal, iron, non-ferrous metal mining, and chemical companies, and established the "Siberia Energy Company", which has 34 mines. big.

Due to the crazy depreciation of the ruble, China Energy Company can repay the loan as long as it takes out a small amount of dollars and converts them into rubles.

In 1992, the giant bear began to learn to walk in HD, copying "shock therapy".

In one fell swoop, the entire country fell to the ground, and the national economic aggregate dropped by more than half.

However, shock therapy is a godsend for speculators like Zhang Jun, because one of the steps in shock therapy is economic privatization.

The connections that I spent money to build up before are now starting to play a big role again.

Various state-owned enterprises were sold to Zhang Jun at an ultra-low price, allowing Zhang Jun to keep the company in Giant Bear to expand rapidly and become the No. 1 oligarch.

……

……

"If there is no accident, the giant bear will be so miserable in the next few years. I advocate that the focus should be on attracting talents. In the future, if the giant bear has a tough president, I don't know if I can keep those industries... ..."

"The situation is unstable, it's better to be conservative."

"Now let's talk about the situation in the foreign exchange market in the UK..." After a pause, Zhang Jun looked at Zhao Wen and asked, "Has Soros of the Quantum Fund started?"

Zhao Wen smiled and said: "It's started. Soros has entered the market and secretly absorbed a lot of pounds. When the time comes, he will sell a lot of pounds while shorting the pound to create the illusion of panic in the market! At this time, the British economy is in a downturn. There is also a problem with the pound itself, once Soros and other international hot money short the pound, it will definitely detonate the pound crisis!!!”

After a pause, Zhao Wen said with serious eyes, "Judging from the information we have collected, the pound crisis is inevitable!"

Zhang Jun nodded. He also has a lot of pounds, but most of them have been exchanged for dollars and German marks.

"Well, since the British pound crisis will break out, everyone should prepare for the crisis in advance. However, the so-called 'crisis crisis' has dangers and opportunities, so everyone should plan and plan well!" Zhang Jun said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" The crowd responded in unison.

With Zhang Jun's financial resources and information, if he wants to short the British pound, he will only earn more than Soros and others, and the entire UK will suffer even greater losses.But if Zhang Jun does this, he will be listed as the most unpopular person in the UK, and he will never be able to do business in the UK in the future.

Conversely, after the economic crisis in the UK, Zhang Jun came as a savior, and he will surely reap the gratitude of the British.

……

United States.

Quantum Fund Company, Soros looked at the chart of the pound sterling exchange rate and couldn't help laughing.

"I, Soros, will become famous all over the world again!!!"

"The empire on which the sun never set in the past will be killed by Soros today!"

Soros is very proud. Once he completes this feat, the whole world will be watching!

Countless rich people will take the initiative to hand over their money to Quantum Fund for operation, and Quantum Fund will soon usher in rapid development.

"Order to go on, tomorrow at 9 o'clock in London time, start selling pounds!!!"

Soros said in a deep voice, with a hint of coldness and killing intent in his voice.

The assistant nodded excitedly after hearing the words: "Okay, boss, I'll arrange it right away!"

Following Soros' order, the foreign exchange market in London, England collapsed instantly.

"What's going on, there are so many sterling sell orders?!" A small stockholder was stunned, with panic written all over his face.

The British pound was crazily shorted, and the market was full of huge sales orders, which frightened countless people.

Soros even shorted the British pound with a fund of 20 billion US dollars and 5 times the leverage for a total of 100 billion US dollars.

European foreign exchange markets responded and also sold sterling.

At present, the British economy is regressing, but the German economy is developing rapidly. Everyone sells the pound, but snaps up the Deutsche Mark.This in turn led to a fall in the value of the pound.

As time passed, the pound fell again and again, market confidence has been completely shaken, and the British authorities have been powerless.

"Damn Soros, he was the one who caused the sterling crisis. I lost a lot of shit and the company is almost bankrupt! I want to kill him!!!" A British businessman read the newspaper, gnashing his teeth, furious!

The people around were all the same as the enemy, echoing and cursing.

"Yeah, don't let me bump into him, or I'll beat him to the ground!"

"Soros is simply a man-eating demon, the most cold-blooded capitalist, and his happiness is based on the pain of all of us in Britain!"

"..."

A large group of speculators headed by Soros made a lot of money, leaving only devastation...

There are many high-rise buildings, and news of so-and-so's fall often appears.

According to incomplete statistics, tens of thousands of British companies have gone bankrupt.

After the British crisis, the economy went backwards again, and people's living standards declined severely.

The boss of a British mining company lost his investment due to the depreciation of the pound, and wanted to cry.

"How could this be?" He couldn't believe the facts in front of him.The company was about to go bankrupt, and he was about to become pauper.

From a billionaire to a pauper, the gap is too great, and he can no longer accept it.

He stood in front of the window staring blankly at the busy traffic downstairs, feeling an urge to jump down in his heart.

Just when he was a little overwhelmed, the door of the office was suddenly opened, and a young man rushed in with joy on his face.

"Boss, the company is saved, China Energy has decided to buy our company!!!"

"What? Is this true?" Arnold Bauer, the mining boss, was overwhelmed with surprise and couldn't help asking loudly.

Originally, the company would be forcibly taken back by the bank, and I would not get any money, but now that someone wants to buy it, I can get a sum of money no matter what. With this money, I have the capital and confidence to make a comeback! ! !

Arnold Bauer felt he had risen from hell to heaven in one fell swoop.

"Yes, boss, their negotiating delegation has arrived!"

"Okay, okay, please hurry up!" Arnold Bauer was excited and nervous, pacing back and forth in the office.

After a while, the negotiating team of China Energy Corporation came to Arnold Bauer's office.

An hour later, Arnold Bauer sent the negotiating team to the door very enthusiastically.

China Energy Company did not suppress the price too much, but acquired his mining company wholly at a very suitable price.

Not only was Arnold Ball able to pay off his loan, but he also had a good chunk of money left over.

"Praise Zhang Jun, he is simply the savior!!!" Arnold Bauer praised devoutly in his heart.

Not only Arnold Bauer's company, many companies in the UK have been bought by Zhang Jun at a low price. These people not only did not get angry and objected, but were very grateful.

Because of the existence of Zhang Jun, the British government has maintained and stabilized the British economy and made great contributions to the British economy.

The favorability of Zhang Jun in the UK has skyrocketed.

Soros lost the pound. Although he made a lot of profits, Zhang Jun was the real winner. Soros was completely reduced to a pawn in Zhang Jun's hands, but he didn't know it.

"I have bought so many high-quality assets by myself. I should really thank Soros. If I hadn't led the way and charged ahead and ruined the British economy, I would not have had the opportunity to win so many high-quality assets!!! "Zhang Jun sat in the office and laughed heartily.

In less than a few years, it will be 1997, and the Asian financial crisis should break out again. Soros is really a good man who shines.

……

……

As the so-called "industry rejuvenates the country"!
What Zhang Jun attaches the most importance to is industry.

This year, IBM's first ThinkPad came out.

Legendary technology company is not waiting to sit back and watch IBM specialize in the past, so it is also planning to launch a notebook computer!

After the legendary technology company got a large number of scientists and engineers from the giant bear country, its research and development speed skyrocketed.

In the first half of 1992, an extremely powerful notebook computer was born.

The processor uses a 32-bit "Kunpeng" chip with a main frequency of up to 650 MHz, which can be called the fastest computer CPU in the world!
Memory: 32M.

Hard disk: 4GB.

LCD Display: 14.1 inches.

Important: 2.2kg.

"Boss, look, the LegendBook is the world's first notebook made of titanium alloy, with a carrying weight of only 2.2 kg and an overall thickness of only 3.3 cm. It is light and strong, with special ergonomic design and good performance. With complete functions, it will definitely become a laptop with the most characteristics of our company!"

After a slight pause, Shangguan Muye said excitedly and confidently: "The appearance of LegendBook will give people a perfect impression, that is: the most famous brand, the best design, and the most advanced technology. LegendBook will be a well-deserved The most popular laptop in the world!!!”

Looking at the notebook on the table, Zhang Jun also felt very amazed, completely at the level of his previous life after the 21st century.

Too awesome!

Those old notebooks were so bloated and underperforming that they were rubbish compared to the LegendBook.

LegendBook is an epoch-making masterpiece and will lead the development of the global notebook market!
Shangguan Muye continued at this time, "LegendBook also has a feature that other laptops do not have for the time being, that is, it has wifi function!!!"

Speaking of this, Shangguan Muye has to admire Zhang Jun's foresight. He asked the company to develop WiFi technology very early. Now, the WiFi technology is relatively mature, and Huawei has even produced a WiFi router. At that time, the WiFi router will be the same as the LegendBook Sell ​​together, jointly promote wifi technology, and formulate wifi standards!

Do you still need a network cable to connect your computer to the Internet?
oh!That's simply too low, let's learn about wifi technology.

Hearing this, Zhang Jun can already imagine how LegendBook users are proud to despise others.

"Boss, besides this, we have also launched a USB flash drive with flash memory as the core. It's just that the capacity of the USB flash drive is only 4M." Shangguan Muye felt a little bit sorry, the idea of ​​the USB flash drive was simply utterly insane. It can almost replace the floppy disk, but unfortunately the current capacity is too small.

Fortunately, the U disk patent has been applied for.

This thing is mainly about creativity, and the difficulty is not difficult.

U disk is easier to carry than CD, and it will not be easily scratched, so it is more popular among users.

Shangguan Muye is confident that when the legendary technology company launches the USB flash drive, it will soon become popular all over the world.

When Zhang Jun caressed the Metallic LegendBook, which was like a work of art, he couldn't help but secretly nodded. LegendBook has so many black technologies in one body, it's hard not to think it's popular! !

The crowd immediately began to formulate sales prices and marketing plans.

The production cost of LegendBook is not very high, but new technology will also have research and development costs, so the retail price of LegendBook is not cheap.High-end products must have the price of high-end products, 3999 US dollars a piece, the main users are those relatively wealthy business people.

Zhang Jun intends to spend 1 million US dollars to promote LegendBook.

There is no need for celebrities to invite others. Zhang Jun went on his own, and spent about an hour and a half in the office to shoot a few minutes of commercials.

……

……

IBM.

John Watson Jr. spoke passionately and said loudly: "Since our founding, IBM has always been the overlord of the computer industry. However, since the era of personal computers, we have lost to Legendary Technology! This is a great deal for us. Shame! But from now on, we want to wash away the shame completely!!!”

"The advent of the ThinkPad 700C notebook will let the world see that our IBM is the overlord in the computer field, not a legendary technology!!"

John Watson, Jr. was so ambitious that he felt that IBM was finally going to be proud.

Everyone in the conference room felt the same way.

The ThinkPad 700C is so good, it beats almost every laptop on the market, and it deserves to be the best value product of 1992! ! !

There is a saying called extreme joy begets sorrow.

This probably formed John Watson Jr. and others.

A month later, Legend Technology held a product launch conference and grandly introduced the LegendBook. As a result, John Watson Jr. almost fainted in the office...

December 1992, 7.

Hong Kong, Cultural Oriental Hotel.

Shangguan Muye came to the stage in a suit and leather shoes.

"Hello everyone, welcome to the press conference of Legendary Technology Company. Today, we will release an epoch-making product." Shangguan Muye glanced at everyone's faces, then picked up the microphone, and said.

The tone was calm, but everyone was shocked after listening to it, and seriously suspected that Shangguan Muye was pretending.

When, when an epoch-making product is released, it can be said so calmly.

Is it because there are too many epoch-making products released by Legendary Technology, and they are starting to drift?
