reborn industrial empire

After sitting in the room and thinking for a whole day, Jin Xiaoqiang finally had a little idea. After sorting out the banknotes, Jin Xiaoqiang locked the door and left.

To be honest, Jin Xiaoqiang has always had some ideas about speculating in foreign exchange futures, but before that, his idea had always been vague and unclear.

But now his idea is clear and has even basically taken shape.

In my previous life, the eldest brother named Hou Zhanshan was a very powerful figure. He went to a prestigious university in the capital. Later, after graduating from university, he went abroad for further study. At that time, he went to Australia.

It just so happened that Hou Zhanshan's family also had some wealth. At that time, his family and Hou Zhanshan didn't understand anything about economics, monetary policy and the like. He went to New Zealand first in 1999, when the exchange rate of the New Zealand dollar against the RMB was at its lowest.

1 New Zealand dollar can only be exchanged for more than three yuan and less than four yuan in RMB.

His family thought it was more cost-effective, so they simply converted several years of tuition and living expenses into New Zealand dollars at once. Who would have thought that starting from 2000, the New Zealand dollar would be on steroids, vis-à-vis the RMB and the US dollar?

The price is constantly rising.

Brother Hou studied language in New Zealand, and then moved to Australia to study for a master's degree, which happened to be economics.

This eldest brother told Jin Xiaoqiang that before he went to Australia, he saw that the New Zealand dollar had great potential, so he asked his family to send him a large amount of money. Then this guy was also brave, relying on his previous experience in

I had experience in speculating in some domestic stocks and futures, so I directly entered the exchange rate futures market.

As a result, due to good luck, they coincided with the New Zealand dollar's blowout period. Since 2002, the New Zealand dollar's exchange rate against the US dollar and the RMB has continued to rise.

Take the New Zealand dollar to the RMB, from around 1:4 in 2000, by 2003, it had risen all the way to 1:5, close to around 1:6.

At this time, it happens to be the time when the New Zealand dollar is rising most fiercely against the US dollar. If Jin Xiaoqiang can be realistic and enter the foreign exchange futures market, it is not impossible to make a fortune by then.

.

And just this year, the exchange rate of the Australian dollar against the US dollar has also begun to rise significantly. From now on, one Australian dollar is about 0.6 US dollars, and it has been rising sharply. By August, it will probably rise to about 1 Australian dollar against 0.8 US dollars.

Until later, the Australian dollar never weakened against the U.S. dollar. By around 2010, the Australian dollar against the U.S. dollar had remained around 1 Australian dollar to 0.9 U.S. dollars.

However, the most ferocious market situation only started to blow out in June and July of this year. At that time, Brother Hou Zhanshan had told Jin Xiaoqiang about this matter countless times.

His two most brilliant trades were completed at this time. According to him, these two trades alone made him more than one million US dollars.

Although he didn't know whether what he said was true or not, when he later came into contact with this elder brother, and when he went to his home to eat at a wealthy restaurant, and saw his grandeur, Jin Xiaoqiang actually believed it in his heart.

What the elder brother said.

Later, under the guidance of this elder brother, Jin Xiaoqiang also entered the foreign exchange market and played for a period of time. At the beginning, he did make a lot of money.

It's a pity that the damn Yankees caused the subprime mortgage crisis. As a result, Jin Xiaoqiang lost all the money he spent to buy a house, and the elder brother also suffered a lot of losses.

Later, Jin Xiaoqiang felt that he really couldn't make it in that company, so he chose to go back to the north to work. Unexpectedly, it became increasingly difficult to make it in society, so in the end he had to be reduced to repairing cars.

However, he was reborn in this life, and his family background has also undergone great changes. The only difference is that the general trend of this world is still not much different from that in his previous life.

So as long as I seize the fluctuation of the Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar against the US dollar during July, it is really not impossible to make billions by then.

However, the RMB is not currently an international currency, and there is no open and free exchange rate policy. Therefore, there is currently no way to directly speculate on foreign exchange rates in the country.

Although there are many foreign-funded companies in Beijing and Shanghai that can conduct foreign exchange transactions, Jin Xiaoqiang knows that these are actually international backbones and are playing side effects on domestic policies.

And those companies are also very uninsured. Although they will provide you with a platform, if you lose money in this company, it's okay. If you win money, and win a lot of money, this company will not be able to protect you.

You may go offline and run away. Not to mention that you won't be able to get back the money you won, even the principal may be taken away by them.

Therefore, Jin Xiaoqiang cannot operate in such a company. After so many choices, the only place that is most convenient for such operations is Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is a famous financial center in the Far East. The annual financial transactions in this small place should account for about one percent of the world's financial transactions.

But even this one percent transaction volume can reach hundreds of billions of yuan, so this place is the most suitable address in Jin Xiaoqiang's mind.

After all, there are many local financial institutions in Hong Kong here, as well as many world-renowned financial institutions. When the time comes, you may consider coming here to try the waters.

However, the SARS epidemic in Hong Kong is now at its peak, so it is not suitable to go to Hong Kong now. Jin Xiaoqiang can only choose to wait for a while.

Fortunately, the period when the exchange rate fluctuated the most happened to occur around July, and Hong Kong also lifted its SARS alert in June.

So June is the right time to go to Hong Kong.

After having a general idea in his mind, Jin Xiaoqiang stopped worrying. It is now late April, and there are still about two months until the SARS alert is lifted.

Anyway, there is nothing much to do during this period, so I can seize the time and work with Liu Xiaoliang and Ding Weizhong at home to quickly finalize the engines.

After that, the next step is to do power matching, that is, to come up with a suitable gearbox and match it with these engines.

In fact, it is the most difficult stage to complete the powertrain of a car when it reaches this stage.

To say that this engine is easy to handle, but when it comes to making a gearbox, this touches on the weakness of the domestic automobile industry.

In later generations, until 2010, domestic independent brand automobile companies could not completely produce an automatic transmission box on their own. Even those state-owned large-scale automobile companies that were among the best could not produce automatic transmission boxes themselves.

Tan.

When it comes to building a gearbox, Jin Xiaoqiang was involved in it when he worked in a car factory in the south. This aspect indeed raised a big technical problem for China's own brand cars.

In fact, in terms of design, our design team is not much worse than foreign teams. Designing a gearbox mainly involves the center wheelbase, gear module, tooth height, tooth width, gear strength, gear noise, and maximum transmission ratio.

, design maximum load, overall layout, etc.

All of this is a thousand words, as long as there is a mature guide, a few mathematical experts, and a set of very good computer software, then these can be completed.

However, the key weakness of my country's gearbox production is the gear material. Because the gearbox is the most important power output conversion device in a car, the workload is very heavy, so the material of the gear must be strong and durable. However, because Our country is lagging behind in materials science, so the quality of our gears has always been average.

Even if it can be produced, it can only be a very backward manual transmission. Even if it is made into an automatic, it is prone to defects in shifting matching, consumes fuel, is noisy, has a short lifespan, etc.

There is also processing, which is also very important. The most important component in the gearbox is the gear, and the accuracy requirements for the gear are very high. Our country has not been very good at finishing.

The last step is heat treatment. Anyone who has ever done machining knows how backward our country’s heat treatment is.

Therefore, it is precisely the above three points that have caused the backwardness of the domestic gear box field.

However, these are not too big problems for Jin Xiaoqiang. He can directly draw out his stepfather's drawings for the design of the transmission, especially the automatic gearbox.

He can draw you from 4at, 5at, 6at all the way to 8at, or even 10at. If necessary, he can take out all the dual-clutch transmissions that will be popular in later generations.

But what makes him most embarrassed now is processing. In view of the current domestic processing level, even if he can design it, he may not be able to produce it, so this is indeed a headache for Jin Xiaoqiang.

A gearbox, especially an automatic gearbox, has very high requirements for processing and gear materials. According to the current domestic production level, it is indeed impossible to produce it.

Jin Xiaoqiang thought about it, but couldn't come up with any good solution. It had been more than half an hour since he got home, and it was already dark outside. Jin Xiaoqiang felt a little bored, so he turned on the computer.

He was casually searching for some information on the Internet, but suddenly he saw a piece of news in a certain forum. This was entertainment news, and it was about a popular Japanese program.

This entertainment program is not the same as ordinary programs. This program often finds some controversial topics for guests to discuss challenges, and this episode is about "Controversy".

When Jin Xiaoqiang saw the title of this issue, his eyes suddenly lit up. He really wanted to sleep, so someone immediately gave him a pillow.

How could I have forgotten this incident?

I continue to ask for collections and recommendations. Today I will go to Sanjiang. Without strong recommendations, I can only rely on the support of book friends. I hope that friends who like this book can give Ant a few more recommendation votes to let the industry

The empire can stay on the list for a while longer...
