One thousand three hundred and twenty-two chapters profit-driven war
On the morning of January 8, Li Guangyu came to the office of Tianyu Investment Company. Li Guangyu knew very well that the Allied forces were very fast this time and Iraq would not be able to hold out for long in Kuwait.
Tianyu Company is currently long a lot of oil in the stock market, and it is also long gold.
Just wait for the 15th to come, and on the 15th, if Iraq does not comply with the UN resolution and withdraws its troops from Kuwait, then the US-led coalition will officially take action against Iraq.
And this war will also let the world see the efficiency and speed of modern warfare. Nowadays, wars no longer rely on large numbers of people. In less than two months, Iraq will be driven out of Kuwait and forced to admit defeat.
As long as the war continues, Li Guangyu needs to let Liu Haoxuan clear his positions quickly. Oil prices will not rise for long. The allies are too fast. The same goes for gold. It will not rise for long either. Quick action is the best way.
Now it is estimated that no force will think that the Allied Forces forced Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait in just one month. You must know that Iraq has been at war with Iran for more than eight years and only ceased fire in 1988.
These troops can be said to be elite troops that have been tested on the battlefield for a long time, but even such elite troops could not resist the Allied forces for a month.
This war also fully demonstrated the combat effectiveness of the US military to the world, telling countries around the world what modern warfare is.
There were not many land forces in this war, mainly the navy and air force, especially aircraft carriers. A total of nine aircraft carriers were dispatched, six from the United States, two from France, and one from Britain.
There are as many as 1,740 combat aircraft, and the United States plans to focus on air strikes. 12 Mirage 2000cs on Bentley Island are already at a military base in Saudi Arabia, waiting for orders from the Allies.
This time Bentley Island only needs to dispatch 12 fighter planes. All supplies and combat materials are provided by the Allies, and Bentley Island does not need to provide additional funds. This aspect is a British matter. Originally, this matter has nothing to do with Bentley Island. After all, Bentley Island is just
Among the fifteen British Overseas Territories, only Bentley Island dispatched 12 fighter planes, and the other fourteen dispatched nothing.
Of course, the 12 Bentley Island fighter planes are under the management and command of the British Royal Air Force in Saudi Arabia. These 12 aircraft are equivalent to the British army. After all, Bentley Island also belongs to the British outside.
Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and other rich countries provided the most funds for this war. The United States only provided 20% of the war funds. Japan, South Korea, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, etc. spent billions or even tens of billions.
US dollars.
The reason why many countries spend money and effort to attack Iraq is because Iraq wants to reduce oil production and increase oil prices. Even Li Guangyu is opposed to it. His Xiangjiang Petrochemical Group imports oil basically from the Middle East. Once the price increases, the cost of crude oil will rise.
If prices rise, the impact will be huge. For example, Xiangjiang Air Transport Group will also be affected by this.
This is still Li Guangyu's side. The United States, Western Europe, Japan and South Korea have greater influence. The United States imported about 2.06 million barrels of oil per day in the Gulf region in the first quarter of 1990, Western Europe imported 4.27 million barrels of oil per day in the Gulf region, and Japan imported 3.84 million barrels of oil per day.
Thousands of barrels.
The oil imports of several countries in the Gulf region accounted for 26.9%, 51.9%, and 64.6% of the total imports respectively. This is also the reason why countries have to take action. The surge in oil prices has a major impact on the development of these countries and is not conducive to all countries.
Rapid economic recovery and development.
At the same time, the United States also wanted to see how the Soviet Union would react and whether the other side would intervene in this war.
It is precisely because of the existence of the Soviet Union that there are some capital following the bankers in the stock market. Li Guangyu will only wait for the war to start, and he will start to ship quickly, and then backhand short. At that time, there will definitely be capital to take the order. They believe that the Soviet Union will not
would be indifferent, after all, rising oil prices and rising gold would be beneficial to the Soviet Union.
Now the Soviet Union's internal economic pressure is becoming more and more difficult. The rise in oil and gold can reduce its domestic pressure. The longer the Gulf War drags on, the more beneficial it will be to the Soviet Union.
Most people will definitely think so. Many people can't wait to watch the show, and some people even imagine that this will be a protracted war.
For example, Liu Haoxuan would not have been busy clearing his stocks if Li Guangyu had not ordered it. He believes that there is a lot of room for growth, and he does not believe that the Allies can solve Iraq in a short time.
Li Guangyu said: "You remember that the Allied forces are expected to launch an attack on the 16th or 17th. The gathering of so many troops is not just a show. You must start clearing out stocks on the 18th and will start on the 20th.
If you go short with your backhand, you won’t be able to escape or enter the market if it’s too late.”
After being transferred back to Xiangjiang in 1989, this was the first time Liu Haoxuan was responsible for such an operation. He was very cautious about this, and there was an unwritten rule in Tianyu Investment Company. Whatever Li Guangyu ordered, he must go without any discount.
When executing, never question it, even if there are many reasons, you must do it.
If there is a stock god in the world, it must be Li Guangyu. Over the past ten years since the establishment of the Li Group, Li Guangyu has never failed in his actions, and he has always made huge profits.
This time Li Guangyu gave this order, which means that there is only one situation. The Gulf War will end at a speed that is unimaginable to everyone. It is estimated that the winner will be decided by the end of this month. The rest will depend on when Iraq will admit defeat.
Liu Haoxuan responded: "Li Sheng, please rest assured, I will arrange this matter well and make sure to clear our long orders before the 20th and start shorting oil and gold."
The most commendable thing about Li Guangyu is his execution ability. In terms of execution ability, it is estimated that none of the companies in Hong Kong can compare with the Li Group.
This also creates a problem. The initiative and creativity of the top management of the Li Group are relatively low. They are good strategic executors, but they are much less strategic planners.
The presidents of some group listed companies can easily be qualified to serve as presidents of groups under the Lee Consortium, but the presidents of the Lee Consortium may not necessarily be qualified for the other party's position in the past.
The main reason is that Li Guangyu has already set the general direction for the development of many groups in the Li Group, and they only need to develop in this general direction.
However, the presidents of outside companies have to constantly consider the development direction of their own groups, which means that some of the top CEOs of the Lee Group may not be able to do this job.
Of course, this execution ability is also a skill. Li Guangyu is a typical person who takes care of everything, comes up with an idea, points out a direction, and then doesn't care about anything. This requires the president and the group's senior management to plan in detail and combine the group's resources.
, in order to achieve the effect planned by Li Guangyu, it is impossible to do it without the ability.
It is not that Li Guangyu himself is unaware of this problem. Nowadays, he is generally less involved in the affairs of more mature groups. It is planned by these high-level officials. Every year, he only needs to look at the major groups' plans for the coming year. He will only do it if it is absolutely unreasonable.
Click it and let it do it.
Li Guangyu will naturally not let go of some companies that have just developed. He clearly knows how to develop, so Li Guangyu will not let them take detours. After all, time waits for no one.
Just like the Phoenix Group, through cooperation with Phoenix Group, Xiangjiang Communications, Sony, Ericsson, British Telecom, Logia, etc., several parties have established the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), and at the same time began to launch digital mobile phones in Asia and Europe.
From the analog age to the digital age.
This time the United States went it alone and introduced its own system, and was unwilling to use the system developed by Li Guangyu and Western Europe.
At the same time, Li Guangyu also asked the Phoenix Group to develop mobile phone text messages and phone books, especially mobile phone text messages, not only in English, but also in Chinese.
This also made the Phoenix mobile phone launched on Christmas last month and was welcomed by all parties. As for the US market, Blue Phoenix has obtained the technology authorization from Phoenix Group and now suppresses Motorola and Fengming Company in the UK in the US market.
Also authorized, Fengming's mobile phones and computers are now well-known in Western Europe.
