Of course, the election process is certainly not so easy, but after Will shouted the slogan to revive the Great Lakes industrial area, many blue-collar workers in Cleveland could not pay attention to him for their own income.
It is more in line with the interests of the Cleveland consortium, as well as many consortiums with interests in minerals, steel, and automobiles in the Great Lakes.
As Will continues to appear in front of the public and the media, many people have gradually learned that Will’s campaign team is basically all members of Li Changheng’s lawyer team.
Even after the local media broke the news, even HL Media joked on TV that with the support of Li Changheng, even a bear could sit in the seat of the state legislator with his eyes closed.
After seeing the report, many institutions and investors on Wall Street believed that Li Changheng was betting on Ohio’s huge shale oil, but for Li Changheng, the shale oil thing has passed.
After the exposure of his own purchase of 150,000 acres of land, the major media and interest groups in the United States will help him continue to promote the value and spread of shale oil.
It can be seen from the slow decline in oil prices that capital is indeed avoiding risks, which further depresses the price of oil.
After getting a lot of attention, Will once again shouted out the slogan that as long as he becomes an Ohio congressman, he will inevitably increase tariffs on auto and semiconductor products in the island country.
This kind of remark is actually not new, but Will must be the first person who actually publicly shouted this during the election.
The islanders are not stupid. They spend a lot of public relations funds every year, constantly lobbying and publicizing various agencies and committees in Washington.
But everything has a limit, or critical value.
No matter how greedy the politicians in Washington are, they also know that their roots are in the United States.
In the face of large companies and bankrupt small and medium-sized companies that continue to lose money, anger has already reached its limit.
Li Changheng’s election came out at this time, and it was Will, a political idiot, who had a very straightforward meaning.
After piercing it, Will will have nothing to lose even if there will be a backlash.
Other politicians don’t have to worry about being out of the spotlight, and are starting to push for tariffs and trade-related negotiations with the island nation.
By this time, many people understood that Li Changheng’s purpose was never simply to stare at oil prices, or a North Sea oil field.

One year and three months later, the Plaza Accord was officially signed. Li Changheng, who was watching TV in his Rhode Island manor, stood up from the sofa in excitement.
Suddenly, Yumiko, who was holding a nearly one-year-old baby, jumped in shock.
Staring at the laughing Li Changheng, he complained, “Henry, you scared Eric.”
Li Changheng hurriedly looked back at the youngest son in Yumiko’s arms.
Seeing that the little guy was still sleeping soundly, he still didn’t understand that it was Yumiko who was frightened by him.
Sitting back on the sofa, he reached out and kissed his younger son on the cheek.
Then he said to Yumiko like a vaccination, “Once this agreement is signed, our buildings and land in the island country will definitely triple or five times soar.
When Eric grows up, the three buildings I gave him will definitely be worth $5 billion.
If you count the shares I hold in several island country groups, the net worth is over 40 billion, which is as simple as playing. ”
“real?”
Yumiko almost cried out in excitement.
You must know that Li Changheng’s net worth at this time is only 54 billion.
And Li Changheng has invested in mainland and Hong Kong Island real estate from time to time these years, but he has not done much for the island country. Yumiko said that it is impossible not to worry about it.
So listening to Li Changheng’s meaning, it is very likely that he will focus on the island country again, and Yumiko suddenly became excited.
Later, he didn’t care at all whether Li Changheng was robbing the wealth of the islanders.
Anyway, in her opinion, since the financial market is legal, outsiders have no right to blame their men.
Not to mention that the money Li Changheng earned in the island country is ultimately his own son.
After getting Yumiko, Li Changheng went to Citi headquarters the next day.
Before the market opened, Frank, Taylor and Andre looked at him worriedly and asked, “Henry, are you really sure that the US dollar will plummet 20% against the Japanese yen in the next three months?”
Li Changheng smiled, “I have already had all my assets in the island country mortgaged and lent 1.25 trillion yen in major banks in the island country.”
Hearing this, the three of Frank felt relieved.
According to yesterday’s exchange rate of 250 to 1, 1 trillion yen is equal to 4 billion US dollars.
Such a huge amount of money has already entered the market, and Li Changheng will definitely not joke about his own money.
Citi’s goal this time is also to directly copy foreign exchange. If it does so, the goal is too large, and it is better to focus on the real estate and banks of the island country.
As for industries such as semiconductors and automobiles, after thinking about it, Li Changheng decided not to go short.
Short-selling requires a pick-up man, and the bubble really started in 1987. The island country itself lowered the interest rate from 5% to 2.5%, which artificially created a huge and incomparable bubble.
Plus there are so many goals to make money, it is better to do more.
Following the trend of overheating of the island nation’s economy, they want to make money for a few years without worrying about being targeted and hated by the island nation.
Even if the real estate bubble in the island country bursts in the future, the house prices in the central area will not only fall by less than 30%, but it will only take a few years to rise again.
What is really worthless is the real estate in the name of ordinary people.
After the market opened, Citi’s traders, following Li Changheng’s orders, aggressively bought real estate and bank stocks.
UBS, which manages Li Changheng’s private wealth, has also begun to buy a large number of Mitsui & Co. stocks with its advantage of more than 1 trillion yen.
The company itself owns a large number of properties and land in the island country.
In addition, Mitsui & Co. owns a 15% stake in Brazil’s Tanshui River Valley, and it also owns more than 200,000 acres of farms and pastures in Brazil.
Together with Nippon Steel and Sumitomo Metal, they hold shares with BHP Billiton in Kangaroo Country.
Not only is the plate big enough, when I want to sell it in 1989, even if Mitsui & Co. doesn’t have that much money, I can turn to the Mitsui Consortium and the bank for help.
And don’t look at the bursting of the real estate bubble in the island country, the island country has a sense of collapse for 20 to 30 years, but many companies in the island country also hold a large number of overseas high-quality assets due to the appreciation of the yen.
A few years later, everything was just as Li Changheng thought. In the face of rising land prices, the people of Mitsui heard that Li Changheng planned to sell the shares they held, and they agreed to take over at a price exceeding 20% of the market value.
After 4 years of skyrocketing, the original 1 trillion assets have already risen to 4.8 trillion yen.
And this is still not the highest value of house prices in the island country, but this is definitely the best time to sell.
Mitsui even had to turn to banks belonging to the same consortium to raise enough money.
In addition, the exchange rate has dropped to a ratio of 120 to 1 in recent years, which means that Mitsui has to pay 40 billion US dollars.
Such a large acquisition amount is impossible to keep secret.
At first, the island country officials were unwilling to approve the transaction. Li Changheng simply mobilized 3 billion yen by himself to redeem a building that was not in the central area of the real estate that had mortgaged 1 trillion yen to the bank that year.
Then it was launched to the market, and the backhand made an extra 1.4 billion yen.
The 3 billion yen building that year has already risen to more than 12 billion at this time. If the price is not increased by 10%, it is not even qualified to negotiate.
Then start the previous routine.
A large number of wealthy people from the island country, who have been sold off by the real estate boom, have united and waved cash, and even foreign exchange came to their door.
Twenty percent of the price increase is the norm.
Except for the 4 buildings on Financial Street, the other 22 buildings were all sold off in just one month.
Holding 3.4 trillion yen in his hand, he just joked at a cocktail party that he might enter the island country’s financial market for fun, forcing the island country to agree to Mitsui’s merger.
However, the islanders are not stupid and ask him not to exchange the US dollar position.
Li Changheng agreed without much thought~www.readmtl.com~ Even if the real estate bubble in the island country bursts and the exchange rate will cause him to lose more than 15% of his funds, he is faced with an average decline of 63% in real estate in the island country.
It’s definitely not a loss if you keep the yen and then enter the market.
If Eric were listed as the heir of the capital and the assets of the island nation, even if the island nation hated themselves, they could only recognize it with their noses pinched, and even describe themselves as the savior to revitalize the market.
In April 1989, after the merger and acquisition was formally concluded, the news that Li Changheng’s net worth exceeded 100 billion US dollars was the first to cause a sensation all over the world.
And major media also broke the news that this does not count the wealth held by the ‘Annie and Henry’ family fund.
Based on Li Changheng’s cautious personality over the years, this number may more than double.
While countless people were shocked, they soon began to feel uneasy.
Li Changheng, who was only 39 years old in a few years, can still be active in the capital for at least 2 to 30 years, and it took him only 20 years to earn such a huge wealth.
Based on the rule that the richer you are, the easier it is to make money. Does that mean that if you make another 100 billion, it may only take 10 years, or even 5 years?
Moreover, based on the assets held by many companies in his hand, the assets that Li Changheng can really influence and control is definitely more than 800 billion US dollars.
That’s double the size of New York’s economy last year.
Even politicians who have been fed elephants and donkeys by him over the years start to panic after seeing these reports.
After receiving the 10th call, Li Changheng looked at Annie, Angela and Louis who were all worried.
With a smile, he said, “I’d better retire.”
The whole book is finished.
