When Huo Qixuan returned home, he received a text message that night. Three hundred million dollars had been transferred to his account.
Huo Qixuan was shocked.
"So fast?"
He had thought that it would take at least a few days to arrive.
He did not expect that it would arrive in just half a day.
"Is Bank of China so efficient?”Huo Qixuan felt a little strange. He thought about it for a long time but still could not figure it out. He remembered that in his previous life, the efficiency of bank loans was very low.
All kinds of messy approval were sent up and down.
It would take at least a week to get the money.
What Huo Qixuan didn't know was that the bank would definitely approve such a large loan amount strictly. It was only because he was Huo Yingdong's grandson that the 300 million USD was transferred to his account so quickly. This identity added a BUFF to him.
"Who cares? The sooner it arrives, the better. That way, I'll have more time to set it up.”Huo Qixuan smiled.
With this sum of money, Huo Qixuan's heart was filled with pride and was ready to go all out.
Before he transmigrated, Huo Qixuan still remembered many things that happened in 1997.
After the return of Hong Kong, the Asian financial crisis followed.
This storm would sweep across Asia.
The Asian financial crisis was also known as the Southeast Asian financial crisis.
It started in July 1997.
The Thai government announced that it would abandon the fixed exchange rate system between the Thai baht and the US dollar, causing the Thai baht to depreciate. The storm quickly spread from Thailand to the entire Southeast Asia.
Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia, Country F, and Vietnam were all severely affected. The reason was that Asian finance was too liberalized.
In the process of financial liberalisation, Asian countries were overly dependent on foreign capital, resulting in a fragile domestic financial system.
Then there was the huge mistake in monetary policy.
The central banks of some Asian countries implemented a fixed exchange rate system and excessively tied the US dollar. In the real estate, stock market and other fields, some Asian countries also experienced bubbles, and excessive investment led to a misallocation of resources.
In just three months, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index plummeted, the stock market collapsed, and the real estate market collapsed.
At the same time, Hong Kong's financial market was under attack by currency speculators such as Soros, and the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar was under great pressure.
This caused Hong Kong's monetary policy to lose its autonomy.
Huo Qixuan knew that this storm would have a huge impact on Asia.
At the same time, he realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
In the financial crisis, many weak companies would be eliminated, and those who dared to invest and lay out their plans might usher in a new take-off.
"Dong dong dong!" At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Huo Qixuan collected his thoughts and got up to open the door.
She opened the door and saw that it was her mother.
Zhu Ling was Huo Zhenting's wife and the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huo Family.
Zhu Ling looked at her son and smiled as she walked into the room.
"Qixuan, have you eaten?" Zhu Ling spoke with concern.
Huo Qixuan nodded and replied,
"Thank you for your concern, Mom. I've already eaten.”
Zhu Ling stepped forward and patted Huo Qixuan's shoulder, her face full of concern and love.
"During the family gathering today, your grandfather asked about you.”
Huo Qixuan's heart tightened.
Zhu Ling saw that her son's expression was a little nervous and could not help but laugh.
"Don't worry, your grandfather didn't say anything. He's happy today.”
Huo Qixuan heaved a sigh of relief and his expression relaxed.
Seeing this, Zhu Ling pulled her son to sit down and said,
"Although your grandfather didn't say anything, it's not good for you to miss the family gathering on such an important day.”
"After your grandfather attends the return ceremony, you have to go to him and apologize. You've already grown up, so you have to be more sensible, understand?”
Huo Qixuan looked at Zhu Ling and nodded slightly.
"Don't worry, Mom. I understand.”
Zhu Ling looked at her youngest son with a gratified expression and asked with a smile,
"You're about to graduate from high school. Have you thought about where you're going to go to university? Should I send you abroad to study? Your big brother and second brother are both in America. With the three of you together, you can take care of each other.”
Huo Qixuan was silent for a while before shaking his head.
"Mom, I don't want to go abroad. I want to go to the mainland to study at a university."
Zhu Ling's expression was strange.
"You want to go to the continent? Why do you have this idea?"
Huo Qixuan smiled and said,
"Hong Kong has returned. In the future, Hong Kong and the mainland would become more and more connected. The family needed someone who understood the mainland.”
Zhu Ling looked deeply at her son.
"Qixuan, with your grandfather on the mainland, you don't have to…"
Huo Qixuan shook his head.
"No, Mom. Grandpa is getting old. There are some things that we juniors have to help him share. We can't completely rely on Grandpa.”
"Otherwise, when grandfather is no longer around, our family's connection with the mainland might become distant. I don't think that's what Grandpa wants.”
Zhu Ling was silent.
After a while, she sighed.
"Xuan 'er, you've really grown up. Mom is very happy that you have this realization. When your grandfather comes back, you can tell him yourself.”
"Okay, Mom!"
"It's almost midnight. Do you want to watch the live broadcast of the return ceremony with us?”Zhu Ling smiled.
"Of course I want to see it. I definitely want to witness such a sacred moment with my own eyes.”Huo Qixuan said.
"Alright, let's go!"
