    "Comrade Licheng, while you and I have time today, come and tell me what kind of person is this Lin Youlun?"

    The Vice Prime Minister read the last chapter of "Currency War" with great interest. He leaned on the back of the comfortable circle chair, raised his two unruly eyebrows, and looked directly at the person sitting opposite him with his slender eyes shining sharply.  Huang Licheng.

    Facing this old leader who was always known for his sternness, Huang Licheng subconsciously sat up straight, with a look of reminiscence in his eyes.

    "In 1986, people from Hong Kong's industrial and commercial circles formed a group to go north. They were led by a Hong Kong filmmaker who had dealt with me before. He approached me and hoped that the mainland would open its market to Hong Kong films and at the same time strengthen cooperation between the two places' film industries. This  The matter was very involved, and I couldn't give him a clear answer under the circumstances. The next day, the old chief met with the Hong Kong industrial and commercial delegation at the Great Hall of the People. In front of the old chief, everyone else was  He said some nice things about the scene, but he was the only one who said something out of place, which probably meant that the development of Hong Kong movies was in jeopardy, which attracted the attention of the old chief, and he went to him that night to inquire about some situations alone."

    ¡°You can still stick to your point of view under such circumstances, which shows that this person is still very good.¡±

    The Vice Premier nodded and then motioned for Huang Licheng to continue.

    "At that time, he made a movie called "True Lies", in which some U.S. military weapon aircraft appeared. This movie caused a great response after being introduced to the mainland. Later, when they met once, the old chief asked him,  The U.S. military's equipment and weapons are really so powerful. He replied that the strength of the U.S. military was only scratched in the movie. People, including the old leader, felt that his words were a bit exaggerated. Who would have thought that the U.S.'s strength was shown in the Gulf War in 1991?  The military strength that came out really surprised everyone.¡±

    Lin Youlun has been interviewed by the old leader many times. The deputy prime minister knew about this, but this was the first time he heard about Lin Youlun's prediction of the strength of the US military, and he couldn't help but show more interest in his eyes.

    "Is his vision really as accurate as you say?"

    "After I came to work in Hong Kong, I specifically researched relevant information about him. In the eyes of ordinary people, he started his career by writing novels and making movies. In fact, this was not the case. The first pot of gold he really made came from investing in foreign exchange speculation in 1985."

    Huang Licheng just finished speaking.  The deputy prime minister immediately thought of something.

    "You said he used the Plaza Accord to speculate on the yen?"

    Huang Licheng did not dare to hide anything and carefully told the deputy prime minister what he had learned.

    The Vice Prime Minister raised his upper lip slightly, with a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

    Judging from Huang Licheng's introduction, Lin Youlun's operation method is very similar to knowing in advance that the five countries of the United States, Japan, Britain, France and Germany will sign the Plaza Accord. If it were not for luck, then this vision is indeed amazing.

    Being able to survive several stock market crashes and real estate price fluctuations in Hong Kong unscathed, it can be said that Lin Youlun's success is entirely due to luck.  It is estimated that few people will believe it.

    "So he already knew that the central government would issue documents to control real estate development, so he withdrew all the funds before the Hainan property market collapsed?" The deputy prime minister changed the topic and his eyes suddenly became stern.

    Huang Licheng complained secretly in his heart. What he was most worried about during this meeting was that the Vice Prime Minister would ask about this matter. Unexpectedly, he was not able to avoid it in the end.

    "Actually, I had doubts about this at the beginning, but judging from the timing of his withdrawal of capital. It was still more than half a year before the collapse of the Hainan property market. If he had inside information, he could have withdrawn later, which would have made more profits.  High, and most of the funds he withdrew were invested in the development of Pudong. If he really wanted to extract money from the mainland, then the funds should have been transferred elsewhere."

    Seeing the Vice Prime Minister frowning, he slowly relaxed.  Huang Licheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he should have passed this level.

    "Have you read his entire manuscript?"

    Huang Licheng nodded.

    "How do you feel?" the Vice Premier asked again.

    Huang Licheng read this book three times. When he read it for the first time, he felt very shocked. When he read it for the second time, he started to think about some of the issues mentioned in the book. After reading it for the third time, he finally discovered some problems.

    "The insights are unique, but I always feel that the content is a bit exaggerated. Just like the Rothschild family. If they are as powerful as the book says, why don't many people know about the existence of this family now?"

    "The Rothschild family was indeed very prosperous. At least in the 19th century, it was recognized as the most influential multinational financial enterprise. It still has a place in today's international financial system, but it is not as mysterious as the book says, and the book  I disagree with some of the views held inYes, the financial industry is one of the most competitive industries in the modern economy, but its industrial structure is far from that of a monopoly organization. On the contrary, the financial industry is the most regulated industry in the modern economy, and its business activities are regulated by various countries.  Strict supervision by governments such as the Ministry of Finance, central banks, specialized financial regulatory authorities and even international organizations.  It is impossible for so-called 'international bankers' to exist with mysterious powers that are above national governments and even international political and legal systems as deliberately described in the book.  "

    Vice Prime Minister Huang Licheng was stunned by his words.

    According to common sense, Lin Youlun should not make such a low-level mistake, but he just wrote it in the book. This is a bit abnormal no matter how you look at it.

    Seeing Huang Licheng¡¯s frown, the Vice Prime Minister knew that he had understood the meaning of what he had just said.

    "Could it be that he wanted to attract readers, so he wrote it like this on purpose?"

    Huang Licheng tried to put forward such a hypothesis, and in fact the Vice Prime Minister had already thought of this.

    "This is an explanation, but have you ever thought about it, Lin Youlun is different from ordinary authors. He has no shortage of fame and fortune. He gives up the rigor of his works in order to attract readers. This reason cannot be explained by him."

    When the Vice Premier said this, Huang Licheng realized that he had indeed thought of the problem too simply.

    "Isn't he afraid of attracting criticism by revealing such a big flaw? I'm afraid he did it deliberately to divert everyone's attention."

    Huang Licheng was confused. Is there any unknown secret hidden in this manuscript?

    "This is exactly what I am thinking about." The Vice Prime Minister pointed to the stack of manuscripts on his desk, "I don't know if you have noticed, but the last chapter of the book mentioned that a currency strangulation war may break out in Asia in the future.  , and this crisis has already shown some signs. Combined with some problems that have occurred in the economic development of Southeast Asian countries in recent years, the crisis predicted in the book is likely to break out in the near future."

    Huang Licheng has read the discussion of this chapter in the book. It is nothing more than that there are some loopholes in the financial systems of Southeast Asian countries. If we do not pay attention to prevention, it is very likely to attract the covetousness of international hot money. According to the view in the book,  These people can be seen behind every economic crisis in the world.

    Such a point of view will definitely attract the attention of many people when taken out alone, but in a work like "Currency War" that is full of novel ideas, it is not so conspicuous and can even be easily ignored.

    "You mean, Lin Youlun wants to send an early warning to Asian countries through this book?"

    The Vice Prime Minister nodded.

    Huang Licheng then asked: "Then why doesn't he directly state this point of view? Wouldn't it be easier to achieve his goal?"

    The Vice Prime Minister sighed softly: "According to the manuscript, international hot money may have already begun to prepare for this currency strangulation war. If you directly put forward your views, you will definitely arouse the hatred of these people, and  He is just putting forward this view as a kind of speculation, and the views in this book are not very rigorous and will inevitably arouse doubts from many people. This will at most arouse the suspicion of those people, but will not attract any  Targeted retaliation.¡±

    Huang Licheng asked puzzledly: "Since this is so thankless, why does he still do it?"

    The Vice Prime Minister was silent for a long time, and finally uttered two words slowly.

    "Hongkong!"

    "Hong Kong?" Huang Licheng was stunned at first, and then suddenly seemed to understand something, his face changed greatly and said: "Are these people crazy? They won't even let Hong Kong go?"

    "Since those people dare to take advantage of Southeast Asian countries, how can they let go of Hong Kong? What's more, it's not just economic factors, but also hidden political intentions."

    Having said this, the Vice Prime Minister couldn't help but have a look of worry in his eyes.

    According to Lin Youlun¡¯s judgment in the manuscript, this financial crisis that may sweep the entire Southeast Asia region is very likely to break out after Hong Kong¡¯s return. If these people are allowed to succeed, the economic damage to Hong Kong will be absolutely devastating.

    ¡°And if Hong Kong¡¯s economy collapses, the rationality of Hong Kong¡¯s return will also be questioned.

    At this time, Huang Licheng finally understood why Lin Youlun went to such lengths to remind the mainland government. It was not that he was very enlightened, but that his interests were deeply tied to Hong Kong. If Hong Kong's economy collapsed, he would also  We have to endure huge losses. As the saying goes, if one gains, both will prosper, and if one loses, both will suffer.

    "Then why didn't he explain it directly to the central government?"

    "If this kind of thing were told directly, would you believe it?" Vice Prime Ministerasked rhetorically.

    Huang Licheng was speechless for a moment and couldn't answer.

    The Vice Prime Minister sighed, "Not to mention that you don't believe it, even I don't believe it, and may even suspect him of ulterior motives. But he is also very smart and chose to publish a book, which not only serves as a reminder, but also does not  It will cause you too much trouble.¡±

    After listening to the Vice Premier's words, Huang Licheng suddenly realized that when Lin Youlun left the manuscript, he probably expected that the manuscript would be sent to the desk of the central government's senior officials, but he certainly did not expect that this would happen.  A copy of the manuscript was first sent to the Vice Prime Minister in charge of the economy, and received such high attention from the other party.
