Chapter 91: Japanese Nuclear Wastewater, Jiang Feng is About to Suffer Huge Losses
Jiang Feng was still chatting with Musk.
The phone rang—
[Abram A]
am]
"Hehe, speak of the devil and he appears!"
Jiang Feng's playful teasing made Old Ma sigh; these greedy Jews really are a headache.
Jiang Feng answered the phone, feigning ignorance:
"Hello, Mr. Abram!"
"can I help you?"
Sure enough, Abram on the other end of the phone indirectly suggested wanting to gamble again, but he subtly revealed that it wasn't he who wanted to gamble!
Moreover, this gamble was extremely large.
Jiang Feng's oil field
VS
$20 billion
Jiang Feng couldn't help but gasp: "Are you sure it's not RMB, but USD? Two hundred billion USD?"
Abram answered very affirmatively:
"That's right!"
“Mr. Jiang, the usual rule is that if you repay on time, you will not need to pay interest; but if you fail to repay on time, you will need to transfer the oil field and compensate us…”
Clearly, Buffett doesn't want to get directly involved!
It’s okay to win.
If we lose...
Haha, wouldn't that ruin his reputation in his later years? He doesn't want to become a laughing stock on Wall Street, being trampled on to rise to power.
Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes and immediately raised the price.
“Mr. Abram, this is not fair! My oil fields are worth hundreds of billions of dollars, two hundred billion dollars is far too low!”
Abram replied speechlessly, "Mr. Jiang, extraction also has costs. Your oil field is not worth hundreds of billions of dollars at all, and the profit is no more than three hundred billion dollars!"
Jiang Feng's shameless offer:
"Then let's make it three hundred billion dollars!"
Abram quickly refused: "Mr. Jiang, it would take decades to earn those 30 billion dollars in profit, but the 20 billion dollars we provide will arrive immediately."
"How much interest would there be over several decades?"
"In the end, we're the ones who lost out!"
Jiang Feng curled his lip: "Do you really think that crude oil prices won't rise? That my oil field will also appreciate in value?"
Abram glanced at Buffett—
The stock market guru shook his head.
Two hundred billion US dollars is already a very high amount!
Of course they knew the oil fields would appreciate in value; otherwise, why would they engage in these conspiracies? It's all for profit.
The price is too high and does not meet the expected returns!
"Mr. Jiang, our funds are limited..."
"There are some things I can't decide..."
"Up to two hundred billion US dollars!"
Abram's veiled hint.
I had absolutely no authority to decide on this bet!
ah~
Jiang Feng thought about it carefully and replied, "I'm very sorry, but I'll borrow from the Japanese instead! It's less risky."
"Isn't it?"
Abram looked at the stock market guru with trepidation.
Buffett frowned: "How about this! Our stakes are still the oil fields, two hundred billion dollars."
"He can still get a loan from Japan."
"A loan of $100 billion!"
“I know he has billions of dollars in financial assets, plus farms, fish farms, and salmon farming technology.”
"It can be used as collateral for seven or eight billion US dollars!"
"We'll guarantee the rest of the loan!"
"If he can't pay, we'll take responsibility."
In other words, they paid $22-3 billion to gamble on a super oil field worth $30 billion.
Jiang Feng was not satisfied!
Why should I be at a disadvantage?
(￣へ￣)
But the other party's offer was already close to its limit.
Should we accept it or not?
[Heeded advice and agreed to the bet]
[Reward: Unaffected by nuclear wastewater]
[Wall Street executives have received information that the Japanese government is preparing to discharge nuclear wastewater, which will severely impact the seafood farming industry.]
Warren Buffett has unwavering faith in your investment in a Japanese salmon farm and is convinced you'll lose everything.
Pfft, you idiot, what kind of god is this?
Haha~
Laugh to death!
and many more…
What the hell!
Is Japan discharging nuclear wastewater?
(￣ Pan￣)
Japan actually dares to discharge nuclear wastewater?
Don't want your face?
I'll boil your mother!
Jiang Feng's face was grim, and he was furious. Putting aside the extent of the pollution from this nuclear wastewater, what right did Japan have to discharge nuclear wastewater into the breadbasket of all mankind?
You emit today.
He will discharge tomorrow.
This has severely lowered the moral standards of all humanity!
Although some studies suggest that these nuclear wastewaters are not highly polluting and have limited radioactivity, they will not cause serious harm.
But if it's so safe, why don't you discharge it into your own inland lake? Radiation is for everyone to share.
In rural areas, this is equivalent to dumping your own garbage on someone else's land, which is bound to cause a fight!
What gives you the right to do this?
Blanching
"Harvest! We must harvest! Harvest them thoroughly!" Jiang Feng made a furious decision to harvest Japan at all costs.
He agreed in a heavy tone—
"OK, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
"You will pay me two hundred billion US dollars and guarantee me a loan of ten billion US dollars from the Japanese bank!"
"The betting period is three years. If I repay $30 billion on time within three years, you will bear the interest, including the interest on the loan from the Japanese bank."
"What if we can't return it on time?"
"All my assets are yours."
"However, for the sake of convenience, I want Japanese yen, and the bet should also be in yen. There shouldn't be any problem with that, right?"
After a moment of silence, Abram replied:
"Happy cooperation!"
Fuck, this script is so familiar. He had a vague sense of foreboding. Was Jiang Feng going to trick him again?
Omar couldn't help but shudder.
PTSD
Buffett confidently remarked, "Ah, young people are full of passion and the courage to go all in."
Unfortunately, it often ends in failure!
"Because you can succeed a hundred times, a thousand times, but if you fail just once, you're completely finished."
No one can succeed forever.
"Even the best of luck won't help!"
Abram hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but ultimately said nothing, not daring to question Buffett.
But he had a vague feeling in his heart—
The stock market guru might be about to make a mistake!
Beside Jiang Feng, Musk looked utterly shocked:
"Jiang, aren't you betting too much? A bet of 30 billion US dollars? Oh shit, my God!"
"Are you crazy?"
Jiang Feng shrugged indifferently.
"I'm not crazy, they're the idiots!"
Old Ma was skeptical: "Jiang, what are you really thinking? What kind of conspiracy do Buffett and the others have?"
Jiang Feng smiled dismissively:
"Just some petty trickery!"
"They received information that the Japanese government was preparing to discharge nuclear wastewater into the ocean, which would be a huge blow to seafood farms."
Musk's shocked and furious outburst:
"Sonofabitch!"
How dare they do this?
"and many more--"
"Then why did you invest in a salmon farm?"
Old Ma was completely baffled. Jiang Feng smiled and asked with ill intent, "Who said I was going to invest in a salmon farm? I'm planning to invest in real estate in Tokyo, Japan."
Musk immediately realized: "Oh right, you said you were lying to them, no, no, it wasn't lying."
"It's just their own guess~"
(→_→)(←_←)
"Jiang, are you optimistic about the Japanese housing market? As far as I know, Japanese real estate prices haven't increased for many years."
"It seems to lack development potential?"
Old Ma was very puzzled. Japan's population was declining and the demand for housing was not high, so how could prices rise?
Jiang Feng hesitated for a moment, then feigned profundity:
"I suspect the yen's exchange rate might fall!"
So, do you understand?
Musk suddenly realized and nodded slightly. If the yen depreciates, it could indeed cause housing prices to rise.
"Then why not just short the yen?"
Jiang Feng answered affirmatively, "Of course, I'm prepared to short the Japanese yen with 20 billion US dollars and speculate on real estate with 10 billion US dollars!"
Wall Street used $20 billion to short the Japanese yen.
The Japanese are using 10 billion yen directly to speculate on real estate!
Shorting the Japanese yen could result in a 50% drop over three years, averaging less than 17% per year. With leverage, after deducting interest, the annual return would be around 10%, and one wouldn't dare exceed five times leverage.
50% profit every year!
Total profit of 150%!
It could earn $30 billion!
It may not seem high, but the market is large enough, and there is a lot of room for operation. It can accommodate hundreds of billions or even trillions of yuan in funds.
This is a scale that stocks can't even begin to match!
Housing prices rose even faster and surged in a short period of time, mainly due to the depreciation of the yen, which attracted speculators to enter the market.
Without a doubt, Chinese capital is the main force!
"Property speculation is highly profitable and yields quick results."
"The key is that rising housing prices can bring the most direct pain to the Japanese people; we need to make them feel the pain!"
Jiang Feng would carry rice at the slightest provocation.
Musk seemed to be deep in thought.
Should I also join in the harvest?
