As early as the 1991 year when the Soviet Union had just collapsed, Xia Tian pointed out a clear path for Soros.

Soros then went to Russia to start making plans. As soon as Ye Liqin implemented "shock therapy", he immediately started to cause trouble.

The main approach is to sniping Hong Kong back then, which is to first make a large loan from the bank, and then wait for the ruble to depreciate significantly before repaying the loan.

At the beginning of shock therapy, Russia implemented monetary tightening policies to avoid inflation.

At that time, Soros was not profitable at first. Because he couldn't borrow too much money from the bank, it was difficult to make too high profits.

But later, because the Russian domestic industry was hit by foreign commodities, it was on the verge of collapse. Subsidies were urgently needed. In addition, the oligopoly monopoly on industrial raw materials led to soaring domestic prices, so the Russian government could only compromise and significantly relax monetary policy, and use the additional issuance of currencies to subsidize domestic industries and make up for the deficit.

But this not only did not save the domestic economy, but instead made the Russian economy worse and the people's lives more difficult to sustain.

The reason for this is that the Soviet Union had already had a large number of powerful capital and privileged classes before it disintegrated. They took advantage of the disintegration to plunder the country's resources and wealth and became oligarchs who monopolize the Russian economy.

Now Russia has relaxed its monetary policy and issued more money, but loans have not flowed into the small and medium-sized enterprises that need support, but have been divided up by those oligarchs.

After they got the money, they did not invest in production. Instead, they used this money to urgently engage in monopoly and plunder in Russia, and urgently needed to strengthen themselves.

This leads to the richer the richer and the poorer the poorer.

The lives of most Russian people are getting worse and worse, and even three meals a day are difficult to guarantee. However, a small group of powerful people make a fortune and live a life of luxury and lewdness.

The chaos in Russia also gave Soros and other speculators opportunities. They also borrowed heavily from Russia and made a big profit while the ruble depreciated.

As summer knows, last year alone, Soros captured more than 30 billion US dollars in wealth in Russia. As one of the investors, he naturally made a lot of profits.

However, there is no need to talk to Xiao Bushi about this business, so as not to arouse his jealousy.

...

"Don't worry, those resources will appreciate soon, and you will definitely take back your investment." Xiao Bushi smiled, "I heard from my dad that the world's major energy giants are ready to raise oil prices."

"Oh?!" Xia Tian was stunned, "Really?"

Xiao Bushi nodded.

Although many countries have oil resources, the formulation of oil prices is in the hands of a few giants. Among them, Exxon Mobil, Shell, Total, and Chevron are the four largest oil giants in the world. They have huge capital, abundant oil and gas resources, huge sales network and advanced mining technology.

Their powers combined are enough to affect international oil prices.

In addition, the world's major oil-producing countries such as Russia, Sat, Venerira, Ilang and other countries also intend to raise oil prices, so the oil rise this time is inevitable.

"That's great." Xia Tian nodded, "George, thank you for telling me this good news."

The oil wells he bought in Canada and the Middle East are now mined every day. If oil prices rise, it will naturally be a good thing for him.

"You're welcome, who made us friends?" Xiao Bushi smiled.

...

After visiting Xiao Bushi and ending his publicity in Texas, Qin Fen came to New York next stop.

In New York, he met Michelle.

"Boss~" Michelle greeted him with great enthusiasm.

"Michelle, long time no see, do you have any good news to tell me?" Xia Tian smiled.

Michelle nodded with a smile, and then showed him the company's financial report.

Xia Tian took it and took a look, nodding frequently.

It’s clear that the company’s recent performance is indeed good.

The stock prices it holds for Microsoft, Oracle, Intel, Adobe, Symantec, Cisco and other stocks have risen a lot, increasing its paper wealth by nearly $20 billion.

‘Very good.’ After watching it, Xia Tian smiled with satisfaction.

Although he has a lot of money, he still feels very happy to see his wealth grow.

"Boss, this is the information of high-tech companies I have collected in the past month." Michelle said again, "Do you see if there are any suitable investment projects?"

Xia Tian nodded and looked up.

He had previously ordered Michelle to closely monitor the development of the global Internet industry and report to him once a month.

However, in the past two years, in the summer, except for investing in American Online, no other Internet companies have been invested in.

This is mainly because now is the beginning stage of the development of the Internet. Although many companies have been established, Xia Tian knows that they will not go to the end.

For example, Netscape, which is now in a big popularity, launched its first commercial browser, and it costs 39 US dollars. Not bad, the browser now is still charged like the antivirus software of the past.

Despite this, Netscape's browser is still widely popular, with sales of more than 6 million copies in the United States alone. Its stock price has soared from the previous three dollars to 171 dollars.

Seeing that Netscape Company is so profitable, Michelle quickly told Xia Tian that he hoped he could invest in Netscape Company.

But Xia Tian refused.

Because he knew that Netscape Company would be over soon after a few years.

Because Microsoft will soon launch a free IE browser, this will completely lose the market for Netscape's browser.

Even if Netscape's browser is announced to be free, it is impossible to compete with IE browser.

After all, the ie browser is loaded into the indos system, and as long as indos is installed, it must come with ie.

Unless Netscape browser's functions are much stronger than ie, users will not spend any time downloading Netscape browser.

And even if the IE browser is free, Microsoft can recoup the cost by selling other software.

The only product that Netscape makes money is Netscape Browser. Once it announces free, the company's performance will be hit hard.

When the stock price falls sharply, wouldn’t it be Qing waiting to lose money if he invests in it?

This is like the major antivirus software of that year, with a profit of hundreds of millions of yuan per year. However, as soon as the free antivirus software came out, their performance suddenly declined. Not only did they no longer make profits, but they also suffered losses.

So Xia Tian doesn't want to wade into this muddy water.
