Chapter 722 (1/2)
Simon didn't expect Chen Qing to know something about Asahi Shimbun.
It's not a big deal.
This morning local time, the latest issue of Asahi Shimbun published an article entitled ”Simon westero's trip to China”, which exposed Simon's secret journey that he didn't want to let outsiders know.
In a word, the Japanese have no malice.
On the contrary, it was a little forced.
Simon went to Japan last week when the Mexican financial crisis broke out, which unexpectedly triggered the ”westero effect” again, leading to a sharp drop of more than 6% in the Japanese stock market in just two days.
this was a matter of many coincidences.
Because of the characteristics of its export-oriented economy, and the fact that Japan's economy has not fundamentally gone out of the shadow of the double collapse of the stock market and real estate market in the past few years, the market situation is still very fragile. If there is a slight disturbance, it may be brewing into a storm. Therefore, even if Simon does not show up, Japan's stock market will not escape this big fall.
In the past, the financial crisis caused by the collapse of the Mexican Peso was transmitted to the world, and the impact on the Japanese stock market in the Far East was also far greater than that in North America and Europe.
However, truth is truth.
Mysticism is very popular in both the East and the West. It has nothing to do with the civilization of a country. After all, there are too many things in the world that can not be explained by coincidence. For example, Simon westero's rare visits to Japan can always make the Japanese stock market plummet. Is it a coincidence once, a coincidence twice, a coincidence three times or a coincidence?
I don't believe in ghosts.
As a result, Simon planned a four-day trip to Japan last week, but the Japanese stock market plummeted due to an accident. After only two days, he was rushed out of the country by his host.
As a result, it's not over.
In the new week, Japan's stock market showed no sign of stopping falling and recovering. Although the market's decline was no longer as serious as Simon's two trading days in Japan last week, it still maintained a downward trend. After all kinds of official means were used, the Japanese were probably in a hurry. They turned their attention to Simon and took the initiative to expose Simon's visit to China.
The subtext is obvious.
Some disaster star has gone, not in Japan, to China, you elder brother and sister-in-law, all the villagers have bad luck all the year round.
Of course, I think so in my heart. I can't say that in my mouth.
Japan and China are in a honeymoon period these years.
Therefore, the Asahi Shimbun article superficially only exposed Simon's trip to China after he left Japan last Friday, with some official sayings such as speculation that Simon westero arranged the trip because he was optimistic about China's economy.
For this matter, although the Japanese have no malice, Simon can imagine the reaction of all parties.
First of all, the Chinese government will certainly be very happy.
Simon initially asked for a completely confidential private trip, but it is not good for the Chinese government to deliberately expose this incident. However, Simon westero, a super rich man with a fortune of 300 billion US dollars, visited China. As for China, which is speeding up the pace of opening up and urgently seeking foreign cooperation, once it is spread, it will definitely be a shot in the arm.
Simon westero is optimistic about China. Westero system has begun to invest in China. No matter how slow people are, they should respond. Even if they are following the crowd, it will not be harmful to follow up.
There will never be anyone more investment minded than Simon westero.
It can be imagined that only this herd effect can bring China a large amount of overseas investment.
In fact, with the exposure of Simon's trip to China, capital from all over the world will really react.
No matter how big the plate is, it's not infinite capacity after all.
The influx of a large number of capital into China will inevitably affect the layout of the westero system in China, and even some people will focus on the layout of the westero system in China.
In fact, before that, too many people had coveted the huge market with a population of 1 billion in the East, but in the past, because of the instability of China's economic policy, people did not dare to venture to invest. Now, Simon westero is in the lead. What else to worry about.
Europe's economy is weak, Latin America's economy is depressed, and Africa has little sense of existence. Except for North America, where the wave of new science and technology is becoming increasingly hot, only vast Asia is still a virgin land waiting for capital reclamation.
Simon westwello gave a ”signal.” without saying that, the investment was right.
Finally, there is the hidden political risk.
Like China and Japan, China and the United States are also in the honeymoon period.
Honeymoon, at least on the surface.
However, when the Soviet Union disintegrates and the United States becomes the only superpower in the world, it will certainly not allow another rival to emerge on this planet.
China is undoubtedly a potential threat.
The previous visit to China by Damen's classmate and Warren Buffett can also be regarded as a relatively pure business activity. With Simon's current wealth status and international influence, his doing so will inevitably lead to unnecessary speculation outside business.At the end of the day, the westero system is already too powerful.
As Simon expected, at the regular press conference of the Chinese Ministry of foreign affairs the next morning, when asked if Simon westero was visiting China, the spokesman of the Ministry of foreign affairs readily admitted the incident. He was obviously prepared to praise Simon's visit to China, and did not forget to re introduce China's investment opportunities to the foreign media.
The news soon spread all over the world, causing the media all over the world to follow up and report, and even some people began to explore in-depth what Simon did during his trip to China.
Simon left China at about the same time.
Back to San Francisco, because of the time difference, the west coast of North America is still on Thursday morning, October 17.
I didn't go home immediately. The main reason is that there are several very important meetings in San Francisco that Simon needs to attend, which was originally a well-established schedule.
It's the end of the year again.
