Chapter 1025: Call

Simon didn't plan to pay attention to Zhu Momo's mother's request for dialogue, he didn't have that much time to deal with the needs of his lover's mother.

However, by chance, I thought of the words I had with Zhu Momo about the other party's family, and I was inexplicably interested again, so I casually typed a reply letter to Chen Qing, and I could take time to chat on Saturday, and the email also asked Chen Qing to investigate the information of Zhu Momo's family by the way.

Some more mail was processed, and it was close to noon.

Girl A came over to remind her that Janet's big brother Anthony's family had arrived, and Simon left the study.

Anthony was in Brazil these days, and Johnston Holdings finally decided to take a stake in Vale for the privatization of Vale, Brazil's largest iron ore producer.

Simon also talked to the old man about this a few days ago.

It's still the original way of thinking.

The Johnston family should not attempt to meddle in all the world's major iron ore producers, as this will inevitably lead to monopoly risks in the future and will be vulnerable to targeted targets.

The old man partially agreed with Simon's line of thought.

On the Australian side, the Johnston family will not attempt to fully integrate, but will take the initiative to leave another competitor on the surface, but on the Brazilian side, it still has to intervene.

If you want to actually control the world iron ore price, just reach an alliance or tacit agreement in private is not reliable after all, on the Australian side, the Johnston family, which is backed by the Westeros system, has enough confidence to maintain control, but on the Brazilian side, even if it can't grab Vale, it must ensure a certain degree of actual right to speak.

Of course, it is also a shareholding.

Simon is a layman in the iron ore industry after all, and the old man's thinking still coincides with him to a large extent, so he does not force it.

After greeting Anthony's family who rushed over, there was still a little time before lunch, Simon and Anthony came to a study on the first floor, sat down separately, and waited for the waitress to bring coffee, Anthony took the initiative to talk about the trip to Brazil that had just ended: "It has basically been determined that we can get 15% of the shares, and Japan's Mitsui is about 30%. ”

Regarding Simon's thoughts, I also communicated on the phone in advance, so of course, there is no need to say more at this time, and talk about the results directly.

Simon nodded and said, "So, the Brazilian government still retains an absolute controlling stake?"

"There is also resistance in Brazil, and this matter cannot be rushed," Anthony took a sip of coffee, held the cup in his hand, and continued: "The next time, there will be another economic crisis, and when the time comes, the Brazilian government will have to let go if it doesn't want to let go." In fact, Brazil's economy has been booming on the surface in recent years, but it is seriously unbalanced on the inside. ”

The Brazilian economy has been up and down in the early nineties, very unstable, until recent years, with the economic recovery of Europe and the United States and the development of Asia, especially China, into the fast lane, and also began to grow rapidly, however, Brazil, which is dominated by mineral and agricultural exports, is easily affected by changes in the external economic environment, which is confirmed both before and later in Simon's memory.

So Anthony's statement is basically correct.

Simon said: "That's three years at most, you know, next year somebody will do something to Southeast Asia, and then the whole Asian economy will fall into a downturn, and Asia is the main export growth point of Brazil in these years, and this impact will be transmitted to Latin America, up to three years." ”

"Three years, that's a bit short, at least five years later, but we're not in a hurry, it's actually the Japanese who are more anxious," Anthony said here, smiled, and changed the subject: "Speaking of which, our layout in China has also blocked the way of the Japanese to a large extent, and that side is not friendly to us now." ”

"Then I'll take the time to go to Japan a few more times to repair the relationship. ”

Simon teased, and Anthony immediately laughed.

With Simon's failure to land in the past to cause the 'Westeros effect', he is definitely the most unpopular guy in Japan now, and I don't know how the Japanese stock market will mourn after a few more trips.

After a few jokes, Anthony added: "I saw the latest immigration and labor regulations drafted by the Liberal government on the plane back, and I have to say that this is more in line with Australia's long-term plan, and I don't understand what those politicians used to eat." ”

Anthony was talking about the latest immigration and labor policy bill quietly promoted by the Westeros system and the Johnston family, who were the direct snakes.

In fact, it was Simon himself who initiated the promotion at first.

This matter has to start from March this year, after the latest election, Australia's 13-year Labor government finally stepped down, and the Liberal Party, which has been in opposition for many years, united with another national party to form a coalition to become Australia's latest ruling party.

To put it simply, Australia's Labor Party and Liberal Party probably correspond to the Republican Party and the Democratic Party in the United States, one conservative and the other open.

It stands to reason that when the Liberal Party comes to power, immigration policy will definitely tend to be open again.

The Westeros system, which pushed behind the election, did not want to see this happen, but because the Labor Party tends to have high welfare and low taxes, low taxes are no problem, and no country can hold on to high welfare, so everyone tacitly agreed to oust the Labor Party from power this time.

The Liberals came to power, tightened welfare policies, and increased taxes, all of which were acceptable to the Westeros system.

Simon is not going to let it go.

However, because of the serious sparse land and sparse population, Australia has been in a state of labor shortage for a long time, and it is simply impossible not to introduce immigrants. So, Simon followed Singapore's thinking, and the latest policy is to open up high-net-worth immigrants and bring in low-end workers at the same time.

High-net-worth immigrants entering Australia can increase the country's economic strength.

The introduction of low-end labor, of course, this point has not been thought of before, but it is more difficult to promote, because the people at the bottom are always not so smart, as soon as they hear that the country is going to introduce low-end labor, it is obviously to rob their own jobs, how can this be accepted, so it has been difficult to implement.

Moreover, this result has actually caused the prevalence of black workers in Australia.

This time, with the continuous control and infiltration of the Westeros system into Australia, as his own backyard, Simon of course spared no effort to make an all-round effort at all levels such as public opinion and campaigning, and threw a large amount of money down, clearly explaining to the opponents that it was powerful, so that the Australian bottom thought that only by doing so would it be more in their interests, and the bill would naturally be promoted.

In the final analysis, it was for Simon's 'Eden Project'.

Since he intends to make Australia the Garden of Eden of the Westeros family, then, not only Tasmania, but also the entire continent, to some extent, is used by Simon as his own private territory, Simon is well aware of the chaos in the United States many years later due to the excessive diversity of ethnic groups and the flood of immigrants, resulting in the loss of power of the main nation.

This is certainly not allowed to happen in Australia.

chatted with Anthony casually, and it was not until Janet herself came to call for someone that the two left the study.

The Anthony family only stayed here for two days, and they also took the initiative to leave, without disturbing the Simon family's private time too much.

However, it was time for the family to leave, and the plan was to return to North America at the end of the week.

And so it was Saturday, September 7th.

If it weren't for Girl A's reminder, Simon almost forgot something, so in the evening of that day, in a private small study on the second floor of the villa, the family outside was preparing for BBQ, and Simon temporarily took time out to come over.

Girl A has already set up a projector, and the 100-inch screen on the wall will be used as an interactive interface, and as for the Chinese side, it is probably a computer.

The communication was connected, and the first thing Simon saw was Chen Qing.

The girl smiled and waved her hand to her boss, and then gave up her position, and then, a fair-skinned woman wearing a long black dress with her hair in a bun sat in front of the camera, and her appearance was somewhat similar to Zhu Momo, but, as Zhu Momo said at the beginning, women belong to the type that resists the erosion of the years, and at a glance even make people less than age, and they are more beautiful than Zhu Momo, and they have more charm precipitated over the years.

Simon sat behind the wide desk, looking at the projector screen, with wireless headphones, and on the other side of the call, Zhu Momo's mother Mo Yiling saw a young foreign man leaning on the leather chair behind the wide desk, looking at himself with a smile.

Even though he has been pondering the situation of this meeting repeatedly these days, Mo Yiling still feels an inexplicable natural restraint, and even if he is really faced with this super-rich man with a net worth of 1.5 trillion US dollars, even if he has a strong personality from childhood to adulthood, even if the young man opposite seems to be not aggressive at all, even if it is like a million miles between the two, Mo Yiling still feels an inexplicable natural restraint, and even forgot to take the initiative to fight for the right to speak for a while.

In a study room in the courtyard here in China, Chen Qing, Lin Su, Zhu Momo, and Zhu Momo's aunt Mo Wuling, who has also stayed in the capital these days, couldn't help but have different thoughts when they saw Mo Yiling's reaction sitting in front of the computer.

Zhu Momo is even more emotional in his heart.

It's the first time I've seen my mother look like this!

In the end, Simon took the initiative to speak: "Hello, Ms. Mo." ”

Mo Yiling finally came back to his senses, quickly put away his thoughts, and nodded, "Hello, Mr. Westeros." ”

At the same time, it reacted.

This foreigner, Chinese is so standard that she didn't even react that she was talking to a foreigner.

Simon hooked the corners of his mouth: "So, Xiaoqing said, you want to talk to me?"

Mo Yiling quietly took a deep breath, completely calmed down, and nodded: "Yes, Mr. Westeros, I hope you can let go of my daughter, she is still just a child." ”

Saying this, a certain strong woman's temperament began to emerge.

So much so that Zhu Momo, who was next to him, heard his mother suddenly say this, even though he was prepared, but he wanted to interrupt, but he couldn't muster up the courage in the end.

On the other hand, Simon did not rush to any surprise at Mo Yiling's words, and nodded very happily: "As long as this is Mo Mo's personal wishes, I have no objection, I never force the women around me, they are all free and can leave at any time." “

This time it was Mo Yiling's turn to be stunned.

I didn't expect that the man opposite would be so easy to talk to, and ...... Well, how can you talk so well.

With some slavery in his heart inexplicably, Mo Yiling stared at the computer screen and said, "Mr. Westeros, it seems that you don't care about my daughter." ”’

Simon saw the angry appearance of the woman staring at the screen through the projector, and suddenly laughed: "Ms. Mo, you remind me of a sentence of Confucius, only women and villains are difficult to raise, and those who are close are not inferior, and those who are far away are resentful. If I didn't agree to let your daughter go, you would definitely be very angry, and now, I agreed, but I didn't expect you to be so angry, which makes me very embarrassed. ”

Poof......

In the study room on the Chinese side, hearing Simon say this, Zhu Momo couldn't help laughing.

Mo Yiling was also suddenly embarrassed, and some of them were unexpected again. Moreover, this man is really dispensable.

It's just that I didn't expect Simon to speak so easily, which made many of the strong words prepared by Mo Yiling useless, if it was someone else, so weak, Mo Yiling would not be willing to say anything more to the other party at all, but, this time it won't work after all.

For this call, she stayed in Beijing for a week. In fact, in other words, she was hung up by a certain man. Moreover, there is a lot of work in my hometown now, which has caused some other people to be dissatisfied.

I didn't expect it to be like this.

In the final analysis, although he is reluctant to admit it no matter what, Mo Yiling understands that he will play the market today, after all, because of the employee with the identity of the man opposite.

The 1.5 trillion dollar super-rich, Mo Yiling is not a little girl who is ignorant of the world, of course she understands what it means behind such a huge amount of capital, if it is not for her daughter, probably, she is the executive deputy county magistrate of a remote Chinese town, and it is unlikely that she will have any relationship with such a big man in her life.

Taking a deep breath again, Mo Yiling said, "In that case, Mr. Westeros, I have some other conditions. ”

Simon felt that he shouldn't be too easy to talk this time, so he shook his head and said, "Ms. Mo, it's too unreasonable for you to say that, since I've already let go of your daughter, it's impossible for you to ask me for anything else." ”

That's right. !

Mo Yiling suddenly found his senses and confronted him-for-tat: "But this is what my daughter deserves, she ...... It seems that you're still a little girl. ”

“......”

Zhu Momo, who was listening, didn't expect his mother to say such a ...... Straightforward, a bit of an impulse to cover your face.

Simon, of course, also understood what Mo Yiling said, but he insisted on shaking his head and said, "But, Ms. Mo, you may also know that we Westerners don't care too much about this. ”

Mo Yiling also shook his head: "No, Mr. Westeros, since you are so proficient in Chinese culture, then you must also understand what this means, and at the same time, you should also be very concerned." ”

“......”

I wish Momo wanted to cover his face.

Mo Wuling listened to his hometown and Simon Westeros discuss this, and he also wanted to cover his face a little.
