Chapter 1366: Collapsed

Tan Zhenhua, who drank a few more glasses at the thank you reception, rarely lay in bed. This is not because he was lazy, but because there are too many things to worry about recently, which makes him tired enough, and getting off the plane is a series of activities. Even if the jet lag hasn't reversed, even if he is still young, he still feels a little overwhelmed.
It is a pity that when he was planning to take a half-day holiday for himself to rejuvenate his vitality, a quick knock on the door suddenly rang.
With Tan Zhenhua’s current battle going out, it’s really not that anyone can walk to the door of his room and knock on the door. This must be an urgent matter. Tan Zhenhua had to mumble reluctantly and get out of bed to open the door. Standing outside the door turned out to be the butler Kevin and Theo. Weigel, and the Minister of Finance not only blushes, but also has a strange expression. It is a mixture of excitement, excitement, and a little bit of...
"Mr. Minister, is it so early?" Tan Zhenhua let the two of them into the house, and looked at Kevin with questioning eyes. Obviously, Theo. Weigel first found him, the housekeeper and confidential secretary, and Kevin felt that the situation was more urgent before he made the decision that he knew that Tan Zhenhua would disturb him when he was regaining his sleep.
Kevin didn't speak, but handed a newspaper.
This is the largest newspaper in Munich, the Süddeutsche Zeitung, with a large circulation. It is known as the newspaper with the largest number of subscriptions in West Hans. It mainly reports on politics, economy, business, culture and sports in the southern region of West Hans. .
Tan Zhenhua has recently started to learn German because of the increasing frequency of economic and trade exchanges with West Hans. However, if he wants to read through German newspapers, he still needs to continue to work hard. However, today’s "Sudder German News" headline headline But he understood it at a glance, and the huge photo distributed under this headline made him understand Theo. The reason why Weigel was so anxious to see him, and Kevin immediately agreed.
The photo shows a wall that is as tall as one person and mottled with traces. At the top of the wall, there are circles of barbed wire. Tan Zhenhua knows that this is the Berlin Wall, one of the famous landmarks of the Cold War Iron Curtain.
But in this photo, the soldiers and policemen who used to guard the Berlin Wall disappeared. Instead, a large group of excited civilians dressed in various costumes were taken. The cold and solid wall was even cut open. Countless people flocked to the gap and were tearing hard, trying to make the gap bigger!
The title uses the largest font size, but only one word
"Einsturz!"
This German word is translated, "It collapsed!"
This day finally came!
Tan Zhenhua sighed secretly, his heart could not help being mixed.
November 9, 1989, this was a historic moment, with Egon. With an order from Krenz, the Berlin Wall, which has long been the most powerful symbol of East-West confrontation, was finally opened by a gap, and Tan Zhenhua knew that the gap would be torn bigger and bigger, and the wall would eventually fall completely. From this day on, human history opened a new chapter.
For many people, the long winter has finally come.
He retracted his thoughts, stabilized his mind, and turned to Theo. Weigel said: "Mr. Minister, it seems that I must first congratulate you. Prime Minister Kohl and the government under his leadership have achieved great success, and the reunification of Hans has finally taken a substantial step."
"Thank you." Theo. Weigel accepted Tan Zhenhua's congratulations with a red face. He wanted to say something, but suddenly he thought of the identity of the young man in front of him, and he couldn't help but swallow the words that had already reached his lips. This made him for a moment. Somewhat embarrassing.
Tan Zhenhua shrugged his shoulders and said, "Mr. Minister, you don't need to care too much about my position. At least from a humanitarian point of view, use a cold wall to separate the same ethnic group and even the same family that are dependent on blood. Very cruel and inhumane. It violates the most basic conscience of mankind. Similarly, it is not possible to separate by straits. Mr. Minister, do you think I am right?"
Theo. Weigel instantly understood what Tan Zhenhua was referring to, and immediately decided his own position, echoing: "Neither the wall nor the strait should become an obstacle to a nation's demand for reunification."
Tan Zhenhua nodded with satisfaction and said: "Then Mr. Minister, we have a common language. I guess you are looking for me in such anxiousness, not just to tell me the good news?"
Seeing that he got to the point, Theo. Weigel also immediately expressed his intentions: "Mr. Eric, Prime Minister Cole called me earlier and he instructed me to communicate with you about the US$5 billion loan as soon as possible. As for the reason. , I think I don’t need to explain it anymore. You must have noticed that we now need a temporary large amount of extra-budgetary funds."
Tan Zhenhua nodded and thought for a while and said: "Sorry, Mr. Minister, I discussed with my partner about your loan proposal yesterday, and I feel that your plan does not meet our "Red Flag Capital" expectations."
Theo. Weigel's face suddenly showed extreme disappointment, but Tan Zhenhua immediately said: "Mr. Minister, the reason for our rejection is not what you think, but we believe that it is a simple loan with such a low interest rate. The loan is not in line with our business philosophy. You have to know that 5 billion US dollars is not a small number, and once we lend, it means that we have lost 5 billion US dollars of liquidity, which is a limited scale for our company. For financial companies, this is obviously not a suitable transaction. For this reason, my partner and I have proposed another plan. Would you like to listen to Mr. Minister?"
"Another plan?" Theo. Weigel asked a little surprised: "What kind of plan?"
"Simply speaking, it is debt securitization." Tan Zhenhua replied with a smile: "We suggest that West Hans issue a special treasury bond. Since it is a national debt, it is naturally secured by West Hans' national credit. As for the coupon interest, It can be formulated in accordance with what Mr. Minister just promised, but we require that this special treasury bond must be anonymous and can be traded in the financial market. In this way, this bond has extremely high liquidity, similar to our "Red Flag Capital "Financial institutions of this nature are more willing to buy and hold this kind of bonds, because in our view, the nature of holding this kind of bonds is not a debt that is difficult to realize, but a current asset with national credit endorsement. , We can also adjust the amount of bonds we actually hold according to our actual needs to facilitate our asset allocation. Both my partners and I think that if the West Hans government is willing to adopt our plan, then we can promise to buy Bonds of less than 5 billion U.S. dollars, of course, we want to trade in marks instead of U.S. dollars."
