Soviet Union 1991

Soros guessed one thing right. The Soviets, with their simple and crude thinking, really didn't know how to play financial wars. Even if they used foreign exchange reserves to save the exchange rate, they were just following the experience of their predecessors. However, the only thing they guessed wrong was that the other party did not intend to take ordinary means to curb the spread of the crisis, but to completely cut off the spread from the source.

The best way to put out a fire is to put it out with another fire. Killing the initiator is much simpler and more brutal than trying to save the market. When Hong Kong closed down banks suspected of being involved in speculative trading, a large number of speculators were scared to stop. What if they just let these people disappear?

They naturally knew which was more important, making money or saving their lives.

Soros was the biggest mastermind behind it, but considering the sensitive relationship with the US government, the Soviet side naturally had some concerns. In the end, it only asked the Financial Administration to freeze several accounts with suspicious capital flows. However, other speculators who did not have a deep political background but rushed into this financial crisis did not have such an optimistic ending.

"Have you finished explaining? Are there any other questions you are hiding?"

The cleaner held a pistol with a silencer in his hand. The velvet curtains were drawn tightly, so he couldn't see what was going on in the bedroom.

In his other hand, he held a photo, a family photo with a *-year-old girl smiling.

The man with his hands tied shook his head in fear, not daring to speak.

"Don't worry about where your bodyguards went. We have already thrown those Frenchmen to feed the fish."

The cleaner put the photo back in his pocket and replied in fluent English, "Thank you Mr. Wells for your honesty. Goodbye."

In his horrified eyes, his index finger pulled the trigger, and then there was a muffled sound.

At the Ritz Hotel in Paris, France, KGB agents dressed as cleaners were cleaning up their mess. A middle-aged man's body was lying on the bed, and the computer screen was reflecting blue light. They turned over everything in the other party's briefcase and put it back after confirming that there was nothing worth taking.

George Wells, an international financial speculator, has less than one percent of Soros's hidden wealth. He plays the role of a mediocre fly in this financial war. They are a group of vultures following Soros. When they see something profitable, they swarm up and snatch meat scraps from the teeth of the giant beast.

Without any political background, they are suitable to be used as a warning to others.

They pretended to be a burglary, and then opened the other party's mailbox, which had a series of communication records. The KGB agent in charge of handling the affairs quickly browsed through it, typed a line of words, and then clicked send.

"To all speculators involved in the financial war, Wells has been executed, and you are the next target."

This paragraph is like a seed of plague, spreading rapidly among financial speculators at the fastest speed. The financial speculation circle, which is praised for its information, soon learned about this matter. At first, some people just regarded this email as a malicious joke, but when they saw the French news, they couldn't laugh anymore.

Someone is dead. George Wells, a not-so-important financial speculator, was killed in a hotel by a robber who broke into the house. On the surface, it seems like this, but the people who received the message know that it is not that simple. They looked at the computer screen in horror. This invisible tug-of-war has not ended yet. It was originally just a contest between capital and finance, but it turned into a dangerous game that could kill people.

Although the financial giants who are the main force have not been in trouble, and the government is behind them, some people have begun to back off because the Soviet government has issued a warning to everyone.

The Soviet Union is indeed not good at financial wars, but they are good at solving problems in the most direct and brutal way. Since they want to challenge the government's patience, they can only use death as a means of revenge.

The KGB is not good at speculation, but killing is its strength.

If freezing accounts is just one of the losses, then the death has brought the game to another crisis. Everyone just wants to make money from the crisis, not to the extent of taking their lives. When the Hong Kong government rectified the financial banks, a group of speculators were scared and stopped, and dared not act rashly.

When everyone was immersed in the fear of Wells's accident, another bad news came.

Another not-so-famous speculator died in his own house, and his financial circle friends also received the same sentence.

The email was exactly the same as before Wells' death.

Now that someone died, at least more than half of the powerful flies began to stop, and the Soviet government's killing chickens to scare monkeys was indeed very wonderful.

According to the display on the screen, the original gradually disparate exchange rate began to slowly fall back, and the account freezing and assassination methods have begun to make many people withdraw from this dangerous financial war.

"Wait, this is different from our previous agreement. You said you would continue to increase your investment and make a steady profit from this war. Now the market is so good that the Soviet government can't hold on any longer. As long as we hold on for another three to five days, after they have exhausted their foreign exchange reserves, we will be able to make a steady profit from this financial war! We can stop and leave after disrupting the financial order. If we withdraw now, all our previous investment will be wasted."

"Do you want to watch the victory that is within your grasp slip away?"

The voice on the other end of the phone seemed a little trembling and uneasy, "Soros, don't you understand yet? The Soviets didn't even think of using economic means to solve the problem. The barbaric Russians wanted to take extreme measures to end the financial war, and death is the best warning. This sure-win deal is of course tempting, but you're going to lose your life, so do you want to take the money into the coffin to spend it?"

The other party calmed down and continued to explain, "We are different from you. You have the support of the White House government behind you. We just want to make a steady profit from the financial market, and we don't have many political goals. If you die, you die. The US government will not lodge a diplomatic protest to the Soviet Union because of inexplicable deaths. Wells is dead. In your opinion, his 400 million assets are just a drop in the bucket, but so what? The Paris police just treated this incident as a burglary and murder. We don't want to end up like this."

"But..."

Soros wanted to argue something, but the other party directly blocked his mouth.

"Goodbye, Mr. Soros. It's safer to stop now and lose some money than to lose someone later."

Then there was a harsh busy tone, and the other party hung up the phone in a panic.

"You guys..."

Soros hung up the phone angrily and sat back in front of the screen. He gritted his teeth and stared at the fall of the exchange rate fluctuations, and picked up another phone.

For the final victory, he threw a bigger chip.

"Hello, I'm Soros, invest another one-third of the funds, yes, this time I want to make the ruble collapse completely!"
