    The days of waiting have never been so worry-free. Even though Li Mingbao is not doing anything related to finance at all, he still thinks of the funds stored in Standard Chartered Bank from time to time.  After all, the gamble this time is really a bit big. God knows whether the original history will be rewritten because of his own reasons.  ¡°After all, in the financial industry in Hong Kong, the handicap is not big yet and cannot support a big scene. Once his funds come in, although it cannot be said that he holds a lot of weight, he can still be regarded as a relatively weighty chess piece.  In addition, he is actually not on the same path as the Hong Kong government and the people from Standard Chartered. Maybe those guys want to trick him. If there is a chance, those guys will never refuse such an offer.  .  Therefore, Li Mingbao is actually quite cautious about Standard Chartered.  But fortunately, Li Mingbao can't think of any reason for his loss. Even if the Hong Kong government delays it for another half a year, he will only be able to drool over his money and cannot really swallow it, unless the Hong Kong government goes crazy and changes the exchange rate.  If it reaches more than 12, then Li Mingbao is 100% in trouble. But if the Hong Kong government really does this, Li Mingbao will lose, but the Hong Kong government will not be any better. It is purely a lose-lose strategy. Li Mingbao will not  I think the Hong Kong government has such great courage, so money matters are relatively safe.  But after all, this matter is not under his control. When it comes to risks, there are still some.  During the days of waiting, Li Mingbao also learned the final result of the negotiation between the Hong Kong government and himself.  Although in name he was negotiating with the Hong Kong government, in actual practice, he had no right to make any suggestions at all. He did not even have one of his own people go there. To put it bluntly, it was the people from Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong government who acted internally.  The most important thing for Li Mingbao to conduct private negotiations in his own name is to let Li Mingbao know the final result. Otherwise, the Hong Kong government and Standard Chartered may not even tell him the final transaction price.  But when Standard Chartered told Li Mingbao the final transaction price, Li Mingbao was almost frightened.  Damn it, Li Mingbao originally thought that he was black, but he didn't expect that those powerful people in Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong government were even blacker than him.  The official exchange rate had not yet reached ten to one. In this negotiation, Standard Chartered was able to get a ratio of seventeen to one, which was seventeen Hong Kong dollars, before Li Mingbao exchanged it for one US dollar.  This is obviously the proportion of treating the Hong Kong government as an idiot. The Hong Kong government actually agreed. Li Mingbao could only say that money can bring magic, especially for British people who are used to doing business. In the face of free money, they will  When it comes to the Governor of Hong Kong and down to the moral integrity of office workers, it is completely useless.  ¡°With such an exaggerated proportion, I don¡¯t know what the British side would think if they knew about it.  But since Standard Chartered Bank can come up with such a ratio, it proves that there is no problem in this matter. If the problem becomes serious, not only Li Mingbao will be implicated, but the people at Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong government will also not have a good life.  , so to have such a proportion, it is definitely not a proportion that was really taken out of the head, but only after careful analysis.  As for what impact this ratio will have on Li Mingbao after it is made public in the future, Li Mingbao doesn't mind.  After all, the people who will really hate themselves because of this matter will definitely not be powerful people. They can only be ordinary people, or some so-called public intellectuals who work hard for power. For these people who talk nonsense and have no actual ability, if Li Mingbao  It's really strange to be afraid. As long as there is no conflict of interest between the upper-class people and yourself, then there will be no problems in business like Li Mingbao anyway. It can even be said that people like Li Mingbao are better than people like Li Zhaoji.  More secure.  The ratio of converting Hong Kong dollars to 17:1, it seems that Standard Chartered Bank earns more than Li Mingbao, but what Li Mingbao earns here is his own money, and does not need to benefit anyone, while Standard Chartered Bank, although the profit is very  It's impressive, but they have too many areas to focus on. In the end, Standard Chartered Bank can get 30% of the net profit, which is considered a strong bank. As for Standard Chartered Bank, half of it will be taken, and the rest will be paid by others.  Points, such a thing is definitely not possible, and it is impossible to pass such exaggerated proportions.  Unless this capital is provided by Standard Chartered Bank, it is a pity that they have no money. If they can have such a profit, it is actually pure profit.  After knowing the final proportion, Li Mingbao understood that this matter was now a foregone conclusion. If he wanted to break this situation, even the people in the UK did not have such strength, or people with strength.  They are all vested interests, and in order to protect their own interests, they will not allow accidents to happen.  In this way, time slowly passed the end of 1983 and began to enter 1984.  The turmoil regarding the Hong Kong dollar has now been settled.  The exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar is still based on the historical ratio, which is 7.8:1 to the US dollar.Replace.  Not a little more, not a little less, no more, no less, just right.  ¡°Compared to those on the periphery, Li Mingbao made a lot of money this time. The premium of 4.2% made Li Mingbao directly earn HK$1.26 billion.  Calculated based on the net profits of Hong Kong companies in 1983, if Li Mingbao is not ranked first, he is definitely at the forefront.  Of course, it was not just Li Mingbao who made a lot of money in this turmoil. In fact, it was the British who really made the big money. Although the British treasury was empty of a lot of money due to this matter, the deficit of the treasury was  For a country, it is not that important. What is really important is the banks. As long as the banks are not empty, deficits and so on are just a joke.  Therefore, the national treasury is losing money, and the ultimate victims, those taxpayers who have no say, have no essential connection with the British aristocrats and banks.  Li Mingbao made a profit, and Li Zhaoji also had no loss, but also made some profit. Although it was much less than Li Mingbao's gain, after all, Li Zhaoji had gathered too many Hong Kong dollars. As long as he had Hong Kong dollars in hand, he would  There was no risk of losing money. At most, those who lent money to Li Zhaoji suffered a lot.  If they didn't lend the money to Li Zhaoji, then the original premium of these Hong Kong dollars would be their income, but they just wanted to get high interest and lent the money to Li Zhaoji, so naturally they would have nothing to do with the money they earned.  Son, even if they can get high profits from Li Zhaoji, they will actually suffer a lot of losses, so in the next few years, Li Zhaoji's life will definitely not be so easy.  After all, people who can lend money to Li Zhaoji are not soft persimmons. It is simply delusional for Li Zhaoji to snatch things from their mouths and achieve any good results.  How to balance these interests is what Li Zhaoji needs to worry about, and it has nothing to do with Li Mingbao.  When the dust settled on this matter, the fact that Li Mingbao made a lot of money on the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate could not be concealed at all. Hong Kong businessmen in Hong Kong could also know about Li Mingbao through roundabout relationships, and people in the UK  , also knew that at this time Standard Chartered Bank also wanted Li Mingbao to take the blame, so Standard Chartered Bank did not hide anything for Li Mingbao.  So just after Christmas and New Year¡¯s Day, there are basically very few people in Hong Kong who don¡¯t know that Li Mingbao makes money.  Based on the previous agreement, Li Mingbao was obliged to take the blame for Standard Chartered and the Hong Kong government, so everyone was quite familiar with Li Mingbao's exchange of Hong Kong dollars at a ratio of 17:1 before the exchange rate stabilized.  Basically, overnight, Li Mingbao made almost 3 billion Hong Kong dollars based on the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate. Not many people don't know.  And such newspapers were not only published in local newspapers in Hong Kong, but also reported in local newspapers in the UK. Even newspapers on Wall Street did not let go of such news.  In this way, Li Mingbao, whose main job is in the film industry, actually immediately established a foothold in the financial industry.  While many people are calling the Hong Kong government idiots, many financial professionals are interviewing Li Mingbao and asking him if he has any plans to enter the financial industry.  With Li Mingbao's brilliant record, he will definitely be able to shine in the financial industry.  Even because these newspapers reported Li Mingbao¡¯s achievements in the financial industry, many people thought that Li Mingbao was in finance when they first knew him, but they did not know that Li Mingbao¡¯s job was actually in entertainment.  The newspapers in Hong Kong, especially the Sing Tao Daily, which did not have a good deal with Li Mingbao, even gave Li Mingbao a nickname, Money-Grabbing Li.  ¡°And such a nickname was immediately adopted throughout Hong Kong. Not only that, this nickname was also adopted in the UK.  Even the British Treasury even pretended to label Li Mingbao as extremely dangerous.  Although everyone who knows the inside story understands that this is just a transaction, there is no need for the public to know these things.  Therefore, the extremely dangerous label in the financial industry will not actually cause much loss to Li Mingbao.  Many newspapers in Hong Kong now understand the truth. As long as they report news related to Li Mingbao, the newspapers will definitely sell well.  Originally, those newspapers thought that Li Mingbao's influence was limited to entertainment, but now that Li Mingbao has played such a trick on the Hong Kong dollar, Li Mingbao is equivalent to a cross-industry super rich man. One plus one is not simple on such an issue.  It's equal to two.  Therefore, Li Mingbao's current newspaper pages, more often than not, appear in financial or mainstream pages.  It has played a positive role in Li Mingbao's popularity in Hong Kong. Although it is inevitable that some people will scold him, the reporters and writers are now scolding Li Mingbao more politely. They are no longer as bold as before, because they are afraid of Li Mingbao.  I won¡¯t let go of articles like this.??On the contrary, they lost their jobs.  For various reasons, Li Mingbao could be said to be the character who appeared on the newspaper pages the most before 1984, even more than the Hong Kong Governor.
