Swedish time, February 11, 11 am.
Stockholm Stock Exchange.
Market Monitoring Department.
Minister Yulia Jefferson came to the monitoring center in the core office area of the department to get the situation as a matter of routine.
The function of the Market Monitoring Department is to monitor and assess the overall operation of the stock market and systemic risks, paying attention to factors such as macro policies, hot topics, related markets and products. The department improves the monitoring system, writes analysis reports, alerts of major risks, and makes policy recommendations in due course.
It can be said that the Market Monitoring Department is an extremely important department.
'Have you noticed anything unusual?'
he asked casually as usual, walking around with ease and comfort.
An employee sitting at workstation 2 in the department hesitated for a moment, but then spoke up, 'Minister, I think there may be something wrong with these transactions.'
Uriah Jefferson paused, his face slightly serious, and walked over quickly, asking, 'Heathrow, what's the problem?'
'I've found four recently opened new accounts with very impressive trading volumes, and the types of stocks bought are irregular and very messy, quite different from the investment behaviour of normal institutions.'
'More specific details still need to be verified, but my more than twenty years of work experience tells me that there may be something going on here.'
The employee called Heathrow said with some uncertainty.
Yulia Jefferson subconsciously wanted to scold.
After all, it was not rigorous to raise the issue without figuring out whether there was really a problem.
But when he thought about Heathrow's years of service and past practices, he, who always acted cautiously, considered whether he should trust Heathrow for once.
Just then,
Heathrow's report seemed to have given the others courage.
Another person reported, 'Minister, I have also found a similar situation to Team Leader Heathrow.'
'It seems that this phenomenon also exists in my area.'
After Heathrow, two more people reported the situation.
In an instant, the nerves of Yuliah Jefferson were on edge. After a moment of thought, he immediately ordered all the employees in the room, 'Everyone, immediately conduct a self-examination to find out which accounts have similar transactions and which stocks they have bought.'
'I will go and liaise with other departments to facilitate your investigation.'
With his order, the entire department immediately began to function quickly.
Soon, as everyone corroborated with each other, more and more information was investigated and compiled.
All the accounts eventually pointed to Kirin Capital.
This was a new company on the Stockholm capital market that sounded familiar.
And the stocks they bought were indeed diverse, except that the vast majority were stocks of listed giants.
Ericsson Group, Electrolux, Assa-Blom, AstraZeneca, Saab Group, Scandinavian Airlines, SCA, Scania Group...
And the amount of transactions that have been uncovered is even more shocking to Yulaya Jefferson.
More than 10 billion Swedish kronor!
And as the investigation continues, more and more accounts are being uncovered, and the transaction amounts are getting bigger and bigger!
Just then.
A subordinate quickly walked up to him and reported, 'Minister, we found out that Kylin Capital is a subsidiary of Xiangjiang Kylin Capital. They also made a big news before. The seven funds opened at the end of last month have raised nearly 10 billion U.S. dollars in total!'
When Yulaya Jefferson heard this, his somewhat vague memory suddenly became clear.
No wonder he felt that the name Kirin Capital was somewhat familiar; he had read the news some time ago.
At that time, he had also exclaimed that another world-class capital management company had appeared, and it had risen to prominence by stepping on the heads of many top European financial companies.
Wait!
Kirin Capital came from that city known as the Pearl of the Orient, Xiangjiang?
"Why would they put up such a huge amount of capital to enter our Stockholm stock market?'
Upon thinking about this, a chill ran down Yuliah Jefferson's spine, and an alarm sounded in his head.
'Apart from some basic work, everyone else fully cooperate in the investigation, and get the results to me as soon as possible.'
Yuliah Jefferson ordered again with a grave expression.
At noon, apart from some time spent eating and going to the toilet, everyone was working overtime in full swing.
It was not until after 3:00 pm that the complete situation was finally found out.
His eyes scanned the long list of account numbers and the complex and huge volume of stocks.
His gaze finally settled on the total amount.
17.48214 billion Swedish kronor!
The most important thing was the time!
It took less than two weeks!
What were they trying to do?
Huge question marks appeared in Yulya Jefferson's mind.
He absolutely did not believe that the other party was very optimistic about the Swedish stock market, this was impossible!
It was very likely that there was some kind of conspiracy!
It must be reported immediately!
Once he realised this,
Yulya Jefferson immediately took the investigation and ran towards the office of the chairman of the board, André Wallenberg.
'Knock, knock!'
'Come in!'
André Wallenberg is Peter Wallenberg's younger brother, the number two of the Wallenberg family, and the chairman of the Stockholm Stock Exchange.
It is precisely because of his presence that many opportunities have been discovered to greatly enhance the strength of the Wallenberg family.
The Stockholm Stock Exchange was definitely the driving force behind the rapid rise of the Wallenberg family.
Seeing the unsteady footsteps and grave expression of Yulya Jefferson as he entered, Andre Wallenberg put down his pen, crossed his hands on the table, and asked in a stern voice, 'Yulya, what is it that has you looking so panicked?'
'Chairman, this morning I discovered a very serious problem. I have already ordered someone to investigate the situation as soon as possible. Here is the specific situation. Please give me your instructions,'
When Yulaya Jefferson answered, he had already come to Andre Wallenberg's desk, and he immediately put the investigation materials on the table.
Andre Wallenberg frowned and, without any nonsense, directly picked up the materials and read them.
Due to the height of the stand and the gap in the information they had, the same material content looked different to different people.
Just by simply seeing the names written in this investigation material, it made him on his toes.
Kylin Capital!
This is a financial company belonging to the Xiangjiang Jiuding Consortium!
And the Jiuding Consortium is a staunch ally of the Guangming Consortium!
These two forces are also the vanguard against the Rothschild family.
Most importantly, the Warburg family is currently allied with the Rothschild family and is at war with the Guangming Consortium.
This relationship alone indicates that things are serious.
Not to mention.
As André Warburg continued to read on, he found that all the companies that had been heavily buying stocks, as listed in the statistics, were very familiar.
Either they were the core pillar companies of the Wallenberg family, or they were peripheral companies with a lot of say.
Without exception!
The shocking stock buying volume made Andre Wallenberg's unease grow stronger and stronger.
When he reached the end,
his gaze fixed on the statistical amount of 17.48214 billion Swedish kronor.
It was as if a mace had appeared out of thin air, knocking him senseless.
He could no longer sit still.
'Bang!'
He slapped the table with a muffled sound, and the whole person stood up suddenly, his face full of murderous intent.
'Chairman...'
Uriah Jefferson was startled by Andre Wallenberg's sudden action, his heartbeat accelerating rapidly, and a thought flashed through his mind: 'There is indeed a big problem, but fortunately I found it.'
'You go out first and keep a close eye on their movements.'
Andre Wallenberg waved his hand and ordered coldly.
'Yes,'
Yuliah Jefferson fled like a scared child.
After Yuliah Jefferson left, Andre Warburg stared at the investigation materials for half a minute, then picked up the phone and dialed a number.
The phone was quickly connected.
He picked up the receiver and pressed it against his face, speaking in a low voice, 'Peter, you must come back immediately, our family is in big trouble...'
