Chapter 470 Preparation, horse racing

In fact, not only Hordokovsky, but also many businessmen in Russia are surprised.

Since 1995, Aso Kagetsu has been gradually selling off its mining, steel, and commercial industries. These industries are distributed in all walks of life across Russia. Almost all of them were sold in the two years before and after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Acquisition by Aso Xiangyue. After the past few years of operation, everything is almost on the right track, with good profits! But this time in early 1997, the number and quality of the companies sold exceeded those before!

These businessmen are ecstatically looking for projects that they are satisfied with, and at the same time they are also guessing, what is the purpose of Aso Xiangyue's doing this? Why should these companies, which are operating normally, be transferred at this time, when the Russian economy is gradually improving?

, a company with considerable profits? Could it be that in a certain field that they didn’t know, Aso and the people behind her had suffered significant losses? Some of them tried to acquire these companies at low prices, but Aso and the people behind her were ignored.

Hesitantly refused!

How did they know that the reason why Aso Xiangyue chose to sell these companies at this time was just to raise funds for Fang Mingyuan's Southeast Asian operations. Although, as early as two years ago, after the Mexican financial crisis, Fang Mingyuan sold the funds in his hands.

Through various channels, it has penetrated into several Southeast Asian countries led by Thailand. Up to now, there are more than 40 billion US dollars of funds lurking in the markets of Southeast Asian countries, waiting for international financial speculators to detonate!

But for this kind of thing, the more funds you have on hand, the better. If an accident occurs, there is room for remediation. Moreover, the financial crisis that broke out from Southeast Asia will also affect South Korea and Japan after it affects them.

Russia! Realize these industries in your hands and wait until the crisis breaks out before re-acquiring them. You can undoubtedly maximize your profits!

Moreover, these companies acquired by Aso Xiangyue have made considerable profits after several years of operation, but the shortcomings of individual companies' small scale and over-dispersion have also been exposed, causing Aso Xiangyue to spend a lot of money on management.

The manpower and material resources also take this opportunity to reintegrate the industries under their name. Of course. More importantly, the technical reserves possessed by these enterprises have been completely digested in the past few years, and then they can be

Keeping it in your hands has no real meaning!

In fact, it's not just Aso Kagetsu, Lin Lian in Japan is also doing the same thing. Gradually, those stocks and companies that were acquired after the Kobe earthquake that were no longer worth extracting are sold, and the Japanese yen are exchanged for

The U.S. dollar and the currencies of various European countries are waiting! At the same time, many banks in Japan are still negotiating, and by mortgaging the industries and copyrights in Fang Mingyuan's name, the target loan is as high as 2.5 billion U.S. dollars! Of course, when it is returned,

All settlements will be made in Japanese yen!

This financial crisis in Southeast Asian countries is also a feast for international hedge funds. What kind of trade can change a country's years or even more than a dozen years in just a few months like a financial crisis?

Years of accumulation have been wiped out? This has caused the entire country's economic level and national life to regress for more than ten years, and may even not be able to regain its strength for several years or even more than ten years!

You must know that before the Southeast Asian financial crisis in 1997, China listed the Four Asian Tigers as its goal to study and catch up. When the media mentioned them, they were a bit groveling. At that time, they were mentioned in newspapers and even in political textbooks for junior high school students.

The "Four Asian Tigers" all looked up to them. At that time, it was generally believed in the country that China's economic level would be good if it could catch up with the level of the "Four Asian Tigers" within the next twenty years. As for the more developed "Asian Tigers"

There is no need to think about "Four Little Dragons". At that time, there was a slogan in southern Guangdong that it would take twenty years to catch up with Thailand! But after the Southeast Asian financial crisis, all Southeast Asian countries, except Singapore, have suffered greatly.

, and the Four Asian Tigers have never recovered since then. Until the beginning of the next century, they still were not able to completely get rid of the sequelae of the Southeast Asian financial crisis.

But this process is like walking a tightrope. If you make a slight mistake, you may lose everything! Forty billion U.S. dollars, for an individual, is already a huge amount of money that is eye-catching, but when it comes to international hot money

In the market, it is just a small pebble that can just make a splash! Although Fang Mingyuan is confident that he can grasp the overall trend of this financial crisis, among those international financial giants, which one is not a top player in this industry?

The daimyo is as shrewd as a thousand-year-old fox. If he is not careful, all his funds will be swallowed up by them, including bones and flesh!

Fang Mingyuan can make money from the financial loss in the future, but if he misses this rare opportunity to strengthen himself, Fan Mingyuan will not have enough funds to support his future plans. As a result, the chain reaction caused by this will be beyond Fang Mingyuan's ability.

Therefore, Fang Mingyuan had to fully mobilize the funds in his hands and make complete preparations! The loan from Mr. Guo and Zheng Yutong was also to further increase the reserves! And this was just one step!

On the fifth day of the first lunar month in Hong Kong, although the weather is cloudy, the temperature has risen. It is on this day that the grand event of the Spring Festival in Hong Kong, the "Lunar New Year Horse Racing", begins.

In the suburbs of Hong Kong, outside the Shatin Racecourse in the New Territories, there is already a sea of ​​people. Hong Kong citizens and tourists are everywhere who come to watch horse racing. Hong Kong horse racing has a history of more than a hundred years, and it can be said that it has been highly integrated into Hong Kong.

The lives of citizens. It is said that one-third of the six million Hong Kong citizens play horse racing. The vast majority of Hong Kong people pay close attention to horse racing activities in their daily lives. Even within a few hours of horse racing,

It can be said to be a special time when all Hong Kong people are focused on one thing. The police have to implement traffic control in relevant areas. Many social activities and even key TV programs avoid this period. And every horse racing day, in addition to several

Tens of thousands of horse racing enthusiasts go directly to the venue to watch the race and place bets. More Hong Kong people gather at many betting stations widely distributed throughout Hong Kong or learn about the race conditions and place bets at home through TV and radio.

.

Hong Kong's horse racing therefore occupies many of the world's "bests" in the horse racing industry: it has the most participating countries in international events, the largest number of participants, the highest ratio of betting amount to population, and the largest number of races in each horse racing season...

...etc. etc. Even the horse racing activities in the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan and other places are not as popular as those in Hong Kong.

Fang Mingyuan, Yu Qiuxia, mother and daughter, as well as Lin Rong and other accompanying persons, were walking on the way to the Guo family's box at the racecourse.

"Brother, if you don't see a horse race in Hong Kong, you can't say you have really been to Hong Kong!" Qing'er held Fang Mingyuan's hand with one hand and Yu Qiuxia's hand with the other, with a happy smile on her face.

"For Hong Kong people, watching the Lunar New Year horse racing and placing bets during the Spring Festival can be regarded as a big tradition in Hong Kong for many years. Ming Yuan, Rongrong, I'm afraid you don't know much about horse racing in Hong Kong. Don't think that this is

It’s a gambling game, and all the money earned goes to the banker!” Yu Qiuxia said with a genuine smile.

"Isn't it?" Lin Rong said in surprise. In her impression, isn't there betting on horse racing in Hong Kong? Every year, many Hong Kong people receive large bonuses as a result, and some of them become wealthy families.

.

"Hong Kong's horse racing was mainly an entertainment activity in the early days, organized by Westerners in Hong Kong. From the end of the last century, horse racing betting began in Hong Kong. From then on, this originally purely entertainment activity took on gambling significance. Therefore, in Hong Kong, horse racing

It is also called horse racing. But for a long time, this sport has been a high-end entertainment activity that only foreigners and a small number of Hong Kong’s upper class can participate in. The reason is actually very simple. The cost of playing it is too high!" Yu Qiu

Xia recalled, "My father once said that at that time, a ticket to the auditorium cost one Hong Kong dollar, and a horse racing ticket for betting was at least five Hong Kong dollars. At that time, this was already the monthly income of ordinary citizens.

One-third to one-half of it!”

"It's so expensive!" Lin Rong couldn't help but stick out her tongue and said, "Then why, Sister Qiuxia, do you still say this is not a gambling game?"

"That was the situation before World War II. After that, it was completely different. Now the organizer of Hong Kong horse racing is the Hong Kong Jockey Club Group, a non-profit organization. The various incomes earned by the Jockey Club Group every year,

In addition to the 3% commission for the Hong Kong Jockey Club Group to maintain the normal operation of the company and maintain these facilities, the remaining 80% should be used as bonuses to give back to Hong Kong citizens who place bets. The remaining 80%

Fourteen, it will be paid to the Hong Kong government as taxes, and the remaining three percent will be used for charity activities! Therefore, the Hong Kong Jockey Club Group is the organization that pays the most taxes in Hong Kong. Its tax payment amount last year was

I can’t remember clearly, but I can tell you that it accounted for 10% to 11% of Hong Kong’s total tax revenue last year!”

Fang Mingyuan and Lin Rong couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Ten percent of Hong Kong's total tax revenue last year was indeed extremely impressive!

"Moreover, the Hong Kong Jockey Club Group is the third largest charity in Hong Kong, with annual charitable donations not less than one billion Hong Kong dollars! Many hospitals, nursing homes, schools, parks and other public entertainment facilities in Hong Kong use the Jockey Club's donations.

It is built and maintained in operation. I remember that the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology once received a huge construction assistance fund of more than one billion Hong Kong dollars from the Hong Kong Jockey Club Group, and also received considerable education funds from the Hong Kong Jockey Club Group every year!" Yu Qiuxia

Pointing to the road ahead, "We're here!"
