Chapter 793: Astounding Scheme, Commanding the Landscape!
After communicating with Aoma and a few others, Xia Ying had roughly glimpsed just the tip of the iceberg of some plan, as well as its key elements.
First, there was the terrifying amount of capital; second, there was an opportunity, a chance for a financial crisis to arise!
Having roughly understood the plan, Xia Ying felt slightly puzzled and asked, "Why must it be a financial crisis, and how can we trigger it to form?"
Aoma calmly explained, "If Tianyun wants to rise quickly and become a powerful capital, it must capture massive profits during the great fluctuations of the global financial market.
Otherwise, there are no shortcuts; accumulation of capital would have to be slow!
But that would be a very long process, we can't wait for it, and it's difficult to succeed. International giants would not just sit by and watch such a force rise under their noses!"
Xia Ying nodded slightly, getting the gist of Aoma's point, but she was still confused about how to create a financial crisis!
"As for the creation of the financial crisis you're concerned about, it seems complex, but the essential principle is not too hard to understand; it can't be clearly explained in a word or two!
In short, you don't need to worry about this. We'll find a way to operate it!" Aoma added another explanation.
Hearing this, Xia Ying took a deep breath inwardly, unable to hide the shock in her eyes. The people before her were truly terrifying, actually capable of creating a global economic crisis, unbelievable!
To outsiders who didn't understand the core, it was inconceivable and exceedingly complicated, but for Aoma, it was simply a matter of a butterfly flapping its wings.
A butterfly effect could trigger a massive chain reaction in the entire system!
The economics expert Bewis by her side added, "After the crisis is detonated, investors' confidence around the world would inevitably be impacted, leading them to follow suit and withdraw funds, causing further damage to the market!
At that time, many enterprises around the globe would face operational difficulties, and that is when Tianyun Group would seize the opportunity to grab market share at a low price!"
"Grab market share?" Xia Ying murmured thoughtfully.
Bewis nodded, "Yes, when powers reach the scale of the L family and the Federal Consortium, money is just a number, which can appreciate or depreciate at any time!
The Earth is only so large; resources are limited. For the world's top consortiums, the aim is to seize market share, to command market discourse. Between nations, it is the same.
Once this goal is achieved, the economic lifeline of the entire market is in their hands, and whatever was lost before will quickly be recovered!"
Xia Ying nodded. Now with some understanding of finance, she quickly grasped the concept.
"But if that's the case, when a crisis is ignited, other companies and consortiums will do the same; when it comes down to it, how will it be our turn?" Xia Ying asked, not understanding.
Aoma smiled lightly, "That's where Ling Fan's value comes in. War Emperor Beiming's prestige is enough to make those titans fearful of rash actions!
If other companies and powers dare to take advantage of the situation, they will certainly be snuffed out by a small finger from the opposing titans!
But Ling Fan's prestige can exert a certain influence and create a balance of power, which is a heaven-sent opportunity for our Tianyun Group!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Ying suddenly realized that in the end, Ling Fan was the key core in this game of strategy.
The more she learned, the more she was in awe of Ling Fan. How could such an incredible figure willingly work as a security guard in her bar?
And he did so for over a year!
This gave her an unreal feeling, at times suspecting that he approached her just for that reason!
"However, when it comes to money, Tianyun really can't put forth much; in this global resource plundering war, the needed resources must be an astronomical figure, right?" Xia Ying asked her last pressing question.
Bewis nodded and said, "Indeed, super consortiums like the L family and Freedom Island have tens of trillions in global asset scales, and even top-tier consortiums have scales of trillions!
Although the funds we can mobilize are only a few hundred billion US dollars, it seems pitifully small, but it's enough to start this resource plundering war.
The game of capital cannot be judged by ordinary standards. For a family, let alone a decade or two, even spending a thousand years might not accumulate such vast wealth!
This is a war of unscrupulous tactics, where big fish eat small fish, deceit, suppression, sneak attacks, and other ignoble means are endless!"
"In any case, just rest easy; without sufficient confidence, Ling Fan would never agree to us making such a crazy, major move!"
Xia Ying took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Indeed, it is crazy. What are your plans for going forward?"
Aoma immediately pointed at Bewis, "An individual's energy is limited; he is responsible for the macro judgment, constantly managing and adjusting strategic direction!"
Then, pointing to two other people beside him, he introduced, "These two are Sean and Hua De, responsible for battle planning in the global capital market!"
Finally, pointing at the remaining two, "Lance and Quincy are in charge of operations in the capital market!"
"Then, what do I need to do, how do I cooperate with you all?" Xia Ying took another deep breath.
Aoma and the others exchanged glances, revealing a slight smile.
"Miss Xia, we believe Ling Fan does not choose the wrong people; we will assist you to the best of our abilities. You need to be shrewd and wise, as well as decisive in killing, with the ability to manage a large consortium.
In this process, you will also need time to slowly gain experience, gradually broaden your horizons and have the ability to strategize over larger scape and secure victory from thousands of miles away," Bewis began.
Upon hearing these words, Xia Ying inwardly took a cold breath, feeling the pressure on her shoulders double, but she also felt incredibly fired up!
"Rest assured, everyone, I will not let Ling Fan down!" Xia Ying said with determined eyes.
"Hmm, starting from now, officially step into your role, we will plan to the best of our abilities while helping you grow," Aoma nodded solemnly.
No one could have imagined that in this small office in Huaxia Binzhou, a few people would plan a strategy that would stir up a tsunami in the world financial market and began to rewrite the global pattern!
...
Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, Eastern Arrival City.
Located in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, Eastern Arrival City was a place that conveyed the meaning of purple qi coming from the east; it was not originally a city, but a mountaintop as if cleanly sliced in half.
Latter on, the Eight Major Sects stumbled upon the Xuan Yin River and Ascension Platform here while searching through the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.
After research, it was found that these two places greatly aided the cultivation of the younger generation of disciples. Consequently, Eastern Arrival City was established here.
Furthermore, they held the God-Sealing Assembly here every three years to select the elite geniuses among the younger generation!
With each successive event held to completion, the God-Sealing Assembly became a tradition in Eastern Arrival City.
And so, Eastern Arrival City also became a place where the disciples of the Eight Major Sects usually exchanged and traded, with a resident population of tens of thousands!
With less than a month to go before the God-Sealing Assembly, the population here suddenly increased drastically, bustling with noise and excitement.
"I heard that Shaolin has decreed that people from the Witchcraft Sect will also participate in the God-Sealing Assembly this time. My senior brother died because of that witch. If I encounter her, she'll have it coming!" A Bagua Sect Disciple strode through the streets of Eastern Arrival City, grinding his teeth in hatred.
The disciple of the Bagua Sect, who was killed by Ling Fan while pursuing Lan Zihan, was called Qiu He; he was the object of this woman's admiration!
Arriving early in Eastern Arrival City this time, she was hoping to trap Lan Zihan and severely humiliate her.
"Junior sister, the dead cannot be resurrected; we must look forward to the future. With me around, everything will be fine. I will avenge this for you!" A young man walking beside her spoke up softly.
"Senior brother, thank you. If it hadn't been for you, I really would have been near despair!" the woman said, pursing her lips.
The young man gave a reassuring smile and consoled, "Don't worry, a mere Witchcraft Sect is not what it used to be.
If the people from the Witchcraft Sect do not come, so be it, if they come, they must hand over the murderer to appease Qiu He's spirit in heaven!"
He and Qiu He could be considered love rivals, both fond of the woman before him. Originally, he did not stand much of a chance.
Now, that guy was dead; and while he showed grief on the surface, inside, he was delighted, extremely pleased with himself.
