Volume 3 The Stormy Waves of the East China Sea Chapter 20 Sing on a high note
…… When he arrived, Ji Youguo was asking Pang Xinglong about the situation
"Okay, in an hour, I'll ask Xiao Wang to pick you up at the door" Putting down the microphone, Ji Youguo turned around and said to Pang Xinglong, "Where did you start talking?" ”
"After meeting with Yanbo, I contacted the central bank and the presidents of several large commercial banks, and there was no problem with mortgage and secured loans, but this morning I received a call from Yanbo, who said that there is no need for secured loans, as long as we provide convenience in the settlement of foreign exchange, and help them forge some construction contracts for mortgage loans."
Ji Youguo frowned slightly and asked, "What does he mean by doing this?" ”
"Most of them want to block the yen" Pang Xinglong was born in economics and knows more about financial operations than Ji Youguo
"How much money do I need to use?" Ji Youguo was secretly surprised, "In addition, what role can foreign exchange settlement play?" ”
"I don't know the specific means of operation, but to block the yen, they must use a huge amount of foreign exchange, they use assets to mortgage in the country, and they must exchange funds for foreign exchange in order to play a role in foreign exchange markets.
Ji Youguo nodded slightly and said, "How much impact does this have on us?" ”
"I roughly counted," Pang Xinglong said, "Our total foreign exchange reserves are 27,000 US dollars, excluding the treasury bonds of other countries, funds invested in international institutions, precious metals and commodity futures, and the available foreign exchange is 1.1 trillion US dollars, Japan's total foreign exchange reserves are only 950 billion US dollars, and the available foreign exchange is less than 5,000 US dollars.
"You're not going to wipe out our pockets all at once, are you?"
"The possibility is very small," Pang Xinglong reluctantly smiled and said, "The speculation in the foreign exchange market is very complicated, Yan Bo must have masters in this area around him, what they have to do is just blow the horn, the yen exchange rate begins to fluctuate, and the smell of money will be flocked to international speculators, I think Yan Bo chose to speculate on the yen exchange rate is to consider that he can get out smoothly after the incident, and let the international speculators deal with the Japanese government."
Ji Youguo pondered for a while and said, "So we don't need to spend much effort at all? ”
"I can't say what will happen when the time comes."
"Be fully prepared," Ji Youguo didn't hesitate any longer, "You have to contact Yanbo more, but don't meet often, wait for Pan Yunsheng to come, I will ask him to arrange a confidential communication line for you, as long as we are within our ability, we must try to provide convenience for Yanbo."
"Do you want to consider our earnings?"
"What do you mean?" Ji Youguo frowned slightly
"Yanbo must use the country's foreign exchange reserves, and we can't just contribute without receiving returns"
"Do you think that's important?" Ji Youguo shook his head, "As long as you do a good job, it is not just a few businessmen who will get benefits, but the entire nation Yanbo will give his life to serve the country, and we are embarrassed to ask him for benefits?" He can donate tens of billions of dollars to the Navy of the Republic, and will he still take the money in his eyes? As a national leader, you must focus on the overall situation and don't be greedy for small gains."
Pang Xinglong nodded and stopped mentioning the benefits
"In addition, we must not be directly involved, you greet the presidents of several banks, no matter what happens, do not speculate on the yen"
"I'll talk to them tomorrow and convey the Führer's meaning"
Ji Youguo nodded, and looked at the wall clock on the wall by the way
"If there is nothing else, I will leave" Pang Xinglong knew that Pan Yunsheng was coming, so he got up and said goodbye very interestingly
After the premier of the State Council left, Wang Yuanqing took Pan Yunsheng to the study
"Premier Pang is singing the tone of peace again, right?"
"It's much better than before, you didn't sing the same drama with me" Ji Youguo asked the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau to sit down, "I just received the news that Yanbo has united a group of Chinese businessmen and is ready to block the yen"
"What!?" Pan Yunsheng had just sat down and almost jumped up
"Pang Xinglong is here to do this"
Pan Yunsheng's eyes rolled around, and he said with a smile: "Old Ji, it won't be such a coincidence, right?" ”
"It seems that nothing can be hidden from our intelligence chief," Ji Youguo laughed, "Yanbo did this, and I arranged it, now I understand why the situation should be eased down, right?" ”
Pan Yunsheng nodded, and asked a little worriedly, "Wouldn't it be too crazy to do this?" ”
"To deal with a crazy country, you have to use crazy methods" Ji Youguo picked up a cigarette, "We only provide financial and foreign exchange support, and Yan Bo is responsible for the specific actions, you and Yan Bo are also old friends, you must try to help him In addition, arrange a confidential line for Pang Xinglong"
"No problem, I just sent two right-hand men to Japan"
"Then it couldn't be better," Ji Youguo asked, after lighting a cigarette, "Is the result of the interrogation out?" ”
"I'm here to report on this matter," Pan Yunsheng handed the documents he brought to the Führer, "before us."
It's not entirely accurate, it's not Ye Zhisheng who has the problem, but Hong Peng is a spy of the Japanese Foreign Affairs Bureau, not a CIA spy Because I didn't get any evidence of the CIA's plan to protect the fish, I sent Li Cunxun and Liu Xiaobin to Japan to collect intelligence."
Ji Youguo frowned and said, "Didn't the two of them be refrigerated by you?" ”
"There's no way, if you want to keep it secret, you can only send them" Pan Yunsheng sighed, "They are senior spies who are in direct contact with me, and they rarely go to Japan to carry out activities before, if you need to secretly help Yanbo, Li Cunxun is also the best candidate"
"You have to be personally responsible for the intelligence work" Ji Youguo did not discuss the details too much, "Since Japan is secretly creating the conflict in the East China Sea, we don't have to think about it so much, sort out the relevant materials as soon as possible, and send a copy of the report to Lao Zhao and Lao Peng, so that they know in their hearts."
"I've sent someone to send a copy to the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff."
"That's good, you go back and prepare, the meeting will start at nine o'clock in the evening" Ji Youguo glanced at the wall clock on the wall, "It's nothing else, you go back first, remember to come on time"
Sending away the intelligence chief, Ji Youguo asked Wang Yuanqing to invite Huang Guowei over
Before the Foreign Minister's arrival, the Führer telephoned the Minister of Defense and the Chief of the General Staff respectively to inform them of the evening meeting
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Huang Guowei came to the head of state's capital
"Make a diplomatic statement?"
"It's not for you to publish it right away, but to draft," Ji Youguo looked at the foreign minister and said, "The situation has been investigated, and Japan has single-handedly concocted the conflict in the East China Sea"
"A report from the Military Intelligence Agency?" Huang Guowei sighed secretly, now he doesn't want to fight, he has to fight
Ji Youguo nodded, which was considered to be an answer to the foreign minister's question
"In that case, it is impossible for us to mention in our diplomatic statement that the situation in the East China Sea has eased and Japan has not gained an inch, so on what grounds should we condemn Japan?"
"Japan can concoct disputes, why can't we make excuses?"
"But ......"
"I came to you to make you mentally prepared" Ji Youguo sighed, feeling that Huang Guowei was too unassertive, "If it's just a sudden accident, we can still calm things down, and if the big things turn into small things, and the small things become small things, everyone else rides on our heads to and pee, can we still bear it?" The ambition of Japanese imperialism is undying, and it is vainly trying to follow the example of those years when we must prove with our actions that the Republic is no longer the poor, weak, and dilapidated sick man of East Asia a hundred years ago, and that any enemy who dares to provoke the Chinese nation will be dealt a heavy blow! ”
"How hot does the wording take?" Huang Guowei is no longer verbose
"It's hot!" Ji Youguo smiled coldly, "We are an ancient civilization and a country of etiquette, and undeclared war is not our means, if we want to achieve the effect of killing a hundred people, we have to show our absolute strength and great confidence, as for the reason you said, it will naturally be there when the time comes."
"Do you want to let out some wind in advance?" Huang Guowei's brain is very flexible, and he immediately made suggestions
Ji Youguo touched his chin and pondered for a while before he said with a smile: "The foreign minister is the foreign minister, and you have a point in considering international issues much more deeply than me, but it is best to state through informal channels that if a war breaks out suddenly, the reason will not be clear, and it will be of great benefit to maintain the country's reputation It is of great benefit to maintain the reputation of the country as soon as possible, do not show up to say anything, and let other officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs come forward."
Huang Guowei nodded and said, "I'll go back and prepare immediately, and I'll release the news tonight."
"Don't be in such a hurry, stay for dinner" Ji Youguo glanced at the clock, "There is an important meeting in the evening, Zhao Rundong and Peng Maobang will attend, and after the final decision is made, it is not too late for you to arrange it"
"I'll wait in the room and come back when I'm eating"
"It's okay, I'll ask Xiao Wang to help you clean up"
After seeing off the foreign minister, Ji Youguo stretched his body
Arrange for Huang Guowei to come to the stage and sing a high profile, Ji Youguo's main purpose is to provide support for Yan Bo From the very beginning, Ji Youguo knew that military action can only play the icing on the cake, and the main battlefield against Japan is the financial market, Japan is not India, and it is impossible to deal with Japan like India
As the head of state, Ji Youguo is very measured and assertive in his strategic grasp
Thinking of convincing the Minister of Defense and the Chief of General Staff at night, Ji Youguo couldn't help but have a little headache Zhao Rundong said that Peng Maobang was an "old stubborn"
After pondering for a long time, Ji Youguo decided to talk to Peng Maobang first
After Wang Yuanqing returned, Ji Youguo instructed him to invite the chief of the general staff to dinner
To deal with a straight soldier like Peng Maobang, he cannot be completely suppressed by prestige, and sometimes he has to carry out "ideological work." As long as Peng Maobang figures it out, he will turn from an opponent to a staunch supporter
After the arrangements were made, Ji Youguo's mood was also much more relaxed
