Chapter 1202 Disaster? Savior?
Simon finally explained George Norman's recent Westeros effect public relations matters, and sent the other party away.
When Norman went out, Simon finished reading the documents in his hand, pressed the inside phone number, and ordered Girl A: "Help me pick up Soros, the White House, Bob Rubin... Forget this, let Jim take the time to talk to him."
Girl A agreed, and after a moment, Soros' phone number came in.
As soon as he greeted him, the old man began to tease Simon's disaster star attribute. It can be felt that Soros was obviously very happy. This is understandable. Simon, the disaster star, brought three stocks, bonds and exchanges to Asia. Even if it avoids the main battlefield, Hong Kong, Quantum Fund's short positions in other countries and regions will inevitably gain a lot.
Simon pulled out the roster of Korean chess pieces from the document at his feet, and while choosing, he talked with Soros a few words, and soon got to the point: "The plan has changed, George, Hong Kong, discuss with you, I will be in the C position next... Yes, the reputation of the disaster star is not good at all, I can only tell them that Simon Westeros can be both a disaster star and a savior... There is no way to do it in a short time, so I can only be simple and crude. I will take out some money to buy Hong Kong stocks... Mainland China will also openly increase its investment, but our cooperation remains unchanged. By the way, you should have received the materials for a new idea of investing in that highway... Believe me, George, ten years are enough, you should be able to find that this happens to be a small economic cycle... Of course, China is the same. Under the background of globalization, even Africa cannot escape, let alone China... This is the case for the time being, I will contact you if there is something."
After hanging up Soros' phone number, just a moment later, the White House connection was connected again.
Simon picked up the microphone again: "Sorry, Bill, I hope I didn't disturb you and Hillary's dinner time... Oh, you're still in the office, it's a coincidence that we are all busy... That's right, say hello to you about South Korea... Bill, of course I understand the strategic significance of South Korea to the Federation... Well, I don't deny that I participated in short selling in South Korea, but I didn't mean to destroy this country... Of course, I promise, otherwise I won't call you... The problem is time, it's still a bit early, and the IMF should wait... I know you and Kim Yongsan have reached a tacit understanding, and the federal credit needs to be maintained. I mean, let the Koreans go back on their own... I will arrange it next... Don't worry, Bill, I will take it. Even if the IMF is not in time at a critical moment, I will take action... Well, I promise... goodbye."
After hanging up again, Simon called out Girl A and handed the two names he had just written based on the roster of chess pieces to the female assistant, as well as the results of the preliminary consultation between Seoul and Washington: "Notify these two people to operate separately, and the core theme is to tell the Korean people that their president is going to sell their country and incite them to launch a boycott."
Girl A nodded and took it, glanced at the name on the note, Kan Sihara, Quan Zhengting.
Probable information about two chess pieces soon emerged in my mind.
Kan Sihara, 32 years old, is a second-generation mixed-race Korean. His father is American and his mother is Korean. He used to work in Verizon's media and public relations department. Because of his bloodline and excellent abilities, he was selected.
Kwon Zhengting, 39, a native of South Korea, was a head of the Kia Automobile marketing department of South Korea's seventh largest chaebol, Kia Group, who went bankrupt in July. The father of four children, two of whom studied in the United States, was secretly recruited by the Westeros system after being unemployed two months ago.
You can judge by just looking at the conditions of two people, and your loyalty is very guaranteed.
Nodded, the girl A turned around and went out without saying much.
I went to my own office in the outside room, called the two of them personally, and began to discuss the arrangement of specific matters.
Simon's words are very simple, but they do not hinder the understanding of A. Her boss means to let these two chess pieces who are good at dealing with the media release the news that the South Korean president is about to ask for help from the IMF at the cost of giving up South Korea's economic sovereignty, which stimulates the general Korean public who are not clear about the specific economic situation of the country to boycott this.
As for the purpose, it is even simpler, but it delays South Korea's time to accept IMF assistance.
With South Korea's precarious economic situation, the fewer chips can be used for negotiations for every day of delay. When it reaches the edge of the cliff, it can only accept more stringent aid conditions.
At that time, the Westeros system will be better operated.
After explaining to the two pieces they didn't know each other, the second assistant sent another note from the boss, asking them to count the contact information of the person in charge of the main creditors of South Korea's foreign debt. Girl A glanced at the note, wrote a note on her memorandum, and asked the assistant to execute it.
It's also easy to understand.
At this stage, South Korea's main crisis is not currency depreciation, but foreign debt, especially large-scale short-term foreign debt. If it cannot be repaid in the next few months, South Korea's credit will go bankrupt, which means the bankruptcy of the entire country.
My own boss is just in case.
At the critical moment, if you have the contact information of these people and call them, others may not be able to do it, but with the influence of the Westeros system, it is still possible to temporarily suspend debt collection from South Korea.
Asian time is already on the morning of October 17.
The news of the Dow Jones circuit breaker fell the day before yesterday. After the opening of the market in various Asian markets today, the only thing that can comfort people is that it is already Friday. At least, for the next weekend, everyone will no longer be so scared.
South Korea, Seoul.
In a five-story gray office building with ordinary appearance in Yisandong, where a large number of corporate giants in South Korea and abroad in Gangnam District, a middle-aged man with black hair and a square face that has been repeatedly gray and gray, hung up the phone from North America and immediately called the wife of the outside world who personally served as secretary and called everyone to meet.
Middle-aged people are the power government.
As a middle-level manager of Kia Automobile, a subsidiary of Kia Group, which once ranked seventh in South Korea, Quan Zhengting's life experience in recent months has been ups and downs.
Three months ago, the Asian financial crisis broke out. Kia Group, which had been entangled in the quagmire for more than a year, could not continue to support it and collapsed. Kia Automobile, whose domestic market share was second only to Hyundai, was first declared bankrupt and quickly affected all other businesses of Kia Group.
At first, everyone was not desperate, thinking that the Blue House would come forward to rescue. Moreover, whether it is the other two South Korean auto giants Hyundai or Daewoo, or even Samsung, which intends to enter the automotive industry in recent years, they are all interested in taking over Kia, and even fight openly and secretly for this. It can be imagined that no matter who the money falls, Kia can actually continue.
At that time, Kia, including the Quanzhengting, worked hard to save the company.
Unfortunately, it is futile in the end.
Because of the other three major chaebols' competition for Kia, the Blue House has been reluctant to come forward. After all, no matter which one Kia is given, it will offend the other two, which makes Kia lose its last chance to survive, completely collapse, and enter the liquidation process.
Then there was creditor takeover and unprecedented large layoffs.
South Korea continues to use a lifelong labor system similar to Japan. Before that, Quan Zhengting, who worked for Kia with his wife for more than ten years and raised four children, never thought that he would be unemployed one day. Even if the couple was not top-notch, they belonged to the management team and lived a very prosperous life. For the sake of education for future generations, they also sent their four middle-aged children to high school in the United States.
When Quan Zhengting and his wife were unemployed, they happened to be a son and a daughter in the United States who were about to pay a total of 80,000 US dollars in tuition. In addition to living expenses, as well as two children in expensive private schools in China who also attended elementary and junior high schools. However, this part of the expenses made Quan Zhengting worried about a lot of white hair in just a few days.
The family’s savings are only enough for the rest of their living expenses.
The couple has two cars, and it is not worth selling them.

The last property is a 260-square-meter high-rise mansion located in Xinshadong overlooking the Han River. This is the proudest asset for the couple in these years. It was worth as high as 650 million won a year ago. The exchange rate was converted to more than 800,000 US dollars. Now, due to the economic crisis, not to mention that the price of the house has fallen by 30%, it is still the local currency. In addition, even if they are willing to sell it, unless they jump to the house price, no one will take over in the short term.
During that time, more than once, Quan Zhengting looked at the Panpu Bridge on the nearby Han River from the floor-to-ceiling window of his home. He wanted to drive over and rush down with a throttle.
There will be no more troubles.
Just as the couple made a decision to take back their children from the United States, sell their house, and take their children back to their hometown in Daegu. When the Zhengting of Quan was alone here, the situation was changing.
Someone actually came to the door and gave Quan Zhengting a new job.
He asked him to set up a separate consulting company to investigate and collect certain information about Kia and other consortiums.
Quan Zhengting has been in the workplace for so many years and has a wide range of knowledge. He soon realized that something was wrong. What the other party asked him to do was to put it bluntly, it was a commercial spy.
However, thinking about the inaction of the government during the collapse of Asia and the intrigue of modern times, Samsung and other chaebols who ignored the jobs of more than 100,000 people for their own interests, the trumpet quickly crossed some psychological thresholds. After all, what else can he lose now?
What's more, the other party directly offered him an annual salary of 100 million won, which was more than 30% higher than when he was in Kia.
This is what he needs most.
