Chapter 476 (2/2)
It's good that the war bonds can not lose money in the hands of governor Youde. It can be said that Shen Bi's view is still very accurate.
Shen Bi: ”I know that London is ready to release 5 billion pounds of war bonds in Xiangjiang area this time. I buy 250 million pounds on behalf of HSBC. HSBC will never stand idly by during the difficult times of the British Empire. ”
”To be honest, if HSBC were the underwriter of these bonds, it would have sold out. You don't even need a so-called party. It's something you can do with a phone call. ”
Hearing Shen Bi's arrogant answer, he was stingy and cautious when buying bonds. Youde suddenly laughed. At this time, he didn't know how to describe Shen Bi. It's reasonable to say that he shouldn't be so good at working in a large class of HSBC for so long. Is it a substitute who came today, but it doesn't look like it!
Youde: ”Mr. Shen Bi may not know yet! Just now, in this room, baozixuan bought £ 10 war bonds on behalf of heiyun group. Now HSBC is only equivalent to a quarter of heiyun's purchase. Don't you think you despise HSBC! ”
”He is also a national of the British Empire. Now it is a time of war. We need to be consistent with the outside world. Now we know why London does not hand over the underwriting of bonds to HSBC! That's because of the contradiction between HSBC and baozixuan. Do you think if HSBC underwrites, will heiyun Group buy a penny? ”
”You should think more about what you did in Xiangjiang. Otherwise, why do people hate you so much. Today, unlike in the past, the British Empire may really lose its rule over Xiangjiang. Now, when we has the final say, we should try to win some benefits for the Empire, and not always think about fighting.
Although Jue de Youde said something reasonable, Shen bi was still unhappy. After all, baozixuan is the boss. He is just a senior worker. Many things are set by the board of directors. For example, the amount of war bonds purchased this time.
Bankers, of course, know the credibility and financial situation of the British government, and they all know that the money will basically float.
Now hearing that baozixuan bought 1 billion pounds of war bonds alone, Shen bi was happy but also worried. So it seems that the strength of heiyun group is getting stronger and stronger, and HSBC is still wandering around one third of an mu of Xiangjiang. It's time for enterprises to go out.
Shen Bi: ”since steamed stuffed bun Xuan is so generous, you can find him. If necessary, HSBC will transfer the money for buying bonds to the account of the governor's office at any time. If not, it's OK. ”
Then he left without looking back. It can be said that he didn't give the governor any face in the whole process.
Shen Bi returned to the hall and nodded to each other after seeing Pu Weishi. It can be said that Shen Bi's performance in the study is fake. How can it be so at his level.
When Britain was preparing to issue 5 billion pounds of war bonds to Xiangjiang, they got the news and knew it was not a good thing. The rich in Xiangjiang may not be able to buy, and this is 5 billion, not a small number.
This may be a hot potato, but it may also be an opportunity to get rich. It depends on how you look at this problem.
Knowing that HSBC will be the focus of attention, we have just had Shen Bi's performance in the study of the governor's office. It makes Youde feel that selling bonds is very simple. In Shen Bi's opinion, bonds packaged by HSBC may make money, but Youde doesn't have such an economic mind.
At this time, Shen Bi's mentality is to become an underwriter of war bonds, but he can't buy it himself. To put it bluntly, I just want to be a banker. If I buy it, most of them will get into my hands.
However, the underwriting will not have this problem. If it cannot be sold, it can be returned to the British government. There are a thousand reasons for how to refund them. Now it's very difficult to take out the money if you buy directly.
If you go too far, it's no different from treason, so everyone doesn't want to take the risk. It can be said that everything is a routine, a routine that doesn't want to pay. It's a pity not to give Shen Bi a trophy.
