Chapter 473 The Thai Government's Hollow Card
Although Ruth kept making small moves, Wu Tao couldn't do anything.
As international friends, we can't be too stingy, can we?
But, I always feel that being touched by her like this makes me very angry. What's even more angry is that the two female subordinates, Qin Xiaoxiao and Wu Yingying, obviously didn't intend to help her.
Could it be that they just had the heart to watch themselves, the boss, being dragged under the pomegranate skirt of the blonde girl?
It's outrageous.
Fortunately, this embarrassing situation did not last long, and soon Wu Yingying introduced more industry colleagues for the two of them.
Of course, all of them are foreigners.
The tall British man Hank, the chubby Yankee Bruce, the capable middle-aged woman Da Vinci, and Vivian who speaks with a Hong Kong accent.
It's just that there are more people, and the chat is not so pleasant.
After all, not everyone is like Ruth, expecting to sleep with Wu Tao tonight, so that it is easy to talk.
So after everyone chatted for a while, the middle-aged woman Da Vinci asked bluntly: "This time the baht sniper battle, the teams that can participate must have at least 50 million US dollars in capital. I don't know if Mr. Wu and you What is the strength of your team?"
Qin Xiaoxiao took a look at Wu Tao, and replied proudly: "We are just doing a small test this time, so the capital is not much, it only looks like 400 million U.S. dollars."
That's not much? It has surpassed most international speculators, okay?
Da Vinci stopped talking for a moment.
Putting on Bruce and saying again: "With all due respect, Mr. Wu, you and your team have no experience in international financial warfare. Are you not afraid that you will never return when you invest such a strong capital for the first time? After all, wars in the financial market, You can’t see the smoke of gunpowder, and if you’re not careful, the whole army will be wiped out.”
"You're right, Bruce." Wu Taoyao gestured to the champagne, "However, in the small fight that just ended, my team was lucky enough not to miss, and earned me a profit of 3 points. I am already very satisfied gone."
Bruce had to give a thumbs up and shout out Wonderford.
Because many international speculators, even big players, can only barely keep their capital in this small fight.
Even a lot of quarrels cost a few points of cost. It's just that the loss is within their acceptable range.
The wonderful responses to two consecutive questions made the gringos look at Wu Tao and the others with admiration, at least the contempt in their hearts was completely gone.
However, if the same industry elites gather together, either the east wind will overwhelm the west wind, or the west wind will overwhelm the east wind.
When several people heard that Wu Tao's team not only did not lose money, but also made money, they always felt that they were being compared with the team behind them, and the questions they asked became more and more harsh.
For example, the sullen British man Ke didn't ask anything else, and just started to sow discord: "Mr. Wu, I have to remind you that this sniper battle against the Thai baht will actually have a profound impact on the entire Asia-Pacific economic order." , so China and Thailand can be said to be one. So, don’t you think it’s a bit inappropriate for you to do this?”
Wu Tao narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, I'm giving you a face by seeing me being so easy to talk to, isn't it?
At the moment, the tone changed sharply and he said in a cadence: "Hank, if my prediction is correct, Mr. Soros also sniped the British pound in 1992, and benefited a lot from it. Now you help Mr. Soros snipe the Thai baht again, Have you forgotten the painful scars caused by the collapse of the pound? Or, you Brits, you like to help the bad guys?"
This remark was so merciless that Bruce, Da Vinci and others laughed bitterly.
Seeing the sullen Hank, his old face was a bit uncomfortable, Wu Tao continued calmly: "Frankly speaking, even if we don't get involved this time, Mr. Soros will surely not give up on the currency sniping in other Asia-Pacific regions, right?"
"...Instead of just sitting there waiting to die, why don't you participate in this operation, train your team, and accumulate experience for emergencies?"
After Wu Tao finished speaking, Vivienne took the lead in applauding. Hank hesitated for a moment, and finally applauded along with everyone, "Mr. Wu, your vision is very clear. I am narrow-minded."
Hanke explained something, and then gave Wu Yingying an apologetic smile.
The atmosphere finally calmed down, and the topic of everyone no longer stayed on the level of Chinese friends, and they began to chat everywhere.
From Buddhism in Thailand to travel around the world, everyone chatted very speculatively.
It's just that the three sentences are not far from the line, and it didn't take long for the topic to return to the Thai baht sniper battle in front of us.
"Everyone, how much foreign exchange reserves do you think the Thai government has now? This is the most important thing related to our life and death."
The question was raised by Vivienne, and it is indeed a question that everyone in the industry is concerned about today.
It's just that no one can clearly judge it.
After all, this is the trump card of the Thai government. If others have really figured it out, how will they play it later? Just play around.
"I think it should be on the scale of 150 billion U.S. dollars." Fatty Bruce was the first to throw the brick, and Wu Tao almost spewed champagne from his nostrils.
If we really want to have a foreign exchange reserve of 150 billion US dollars, everyone should pack up as soon as possible, go home early, and find their own mothers.
So when Xiao Wu Tao spoke, Hanke was the first to object: "Impossible, I think it looks like 100 billion U.S. dollars at most!"
After all, Da Vinci has more experience, and his judgment is more comprehensive: "The Thai government has experienced this small disturbance, and the run on the Thai baht against the US dollar that has been triggered during these days has been continuing. I don't think so. It may be as high as 100 billion U.S. dollars, up to 70 billion U.S. dollars!"
"Da Vinci, are you joking? This is a country after all, and it is the fastest growing country in the Asia-Pacific region. It is even called the Four Asian Tigers, isn't it?" Bruce retorted first.
After all, my own judgment has been discounted by others. If everyone agrees with this judgment, wouldn't it seem that I am too unskilled?
Hank also shook his head again and again, "Da Vinci, you must have made a mistake somewhere, there shouldn't be so few..."
Seeing that the three of them were about to quarrel, the instigator, Vivienne, suddenly turned the topic to Wu Tao and said, "Mr. Wu, what do you think?"
Wu Tao put down the champagne, clasped his hands together, and said formally: "Thailand has indeed developed rapidly in the past few years, but there is a problem that cannot be ignored, and everyone should pay attention. That is, Thailand's economic development, a large part of it depends on real estate , and even the international trade volume is in deficit.”
"This will inevitably lead to the end of the Thai government's food surplus!"
Qin Xiaoxiao and Wu Yingying showed signs of listening attentively, and Vivian said with a clear expression: "So, Mr. Wu, do you agree with Da Vinci's point of view?"
Just when everyone thought that this question had already had a tendentious result, Wu Tao shook his head suddenly.
"I think Da Vinci's tendency to judge is correct, but the foreign exchange reserves of the Thai government will be less than 70 billion US dollars, and much less!"
As soon as the words came out, the surrounding people all exclaimed in unison: "This is impossible!"
Even Ruth, who had been acting like an answering bug, echoed that it was absolutely impossible.
Wu Tao just smiled and said nothing. After all, the judgments of these people were far from the truth, so he had no interest in saying anything.
He is not targeting anyone, but these people are weak chickens...
