Chapter 152: I'm not interested in saving the world
If Robert's coming to Zhou Ming was just a surprise to everyone, then Robert's request is very puzzling. He allowed Zhou Ming to get the money, but he didn't allow Zhou Ming to use the money, isn't this a very ridiculous statement? The money has already gone into Zhou Ming's pocket, how to use it is not a matter of Zhou Ming's mood, not to mention that you are just the ambassador of the United States, even if you are the president of the United States, you don't have this power, right?
Even Tong Gang couldn't help but say: "Mr. Ambassador, I think there is a problem with our understanding of the language, and it is really incomprehensible that you ask Zhou Ming's little brother not to use this money." ”
"Oh no, Mr. Tong Gang, I don't think there is any problem with my language understanding, I do hope that Mr. Zhou Ming will not use this money. Robert shook his head and said, even repeating it in English in order to make his meaning clear.
Tong Gang was stunned for a moment, and Li Cheng immediately asked, "Mr. Ambassador, I don't understand very much, why are you asking for this?"
"The reason, of course, is the destructive power of this wealth," Robert said very reasonably, "Mr. Tong Gang and Mr. Li Cheng are both celebrities and gentlemen in Hong Kong City, and I think you should know that even if someone wins a jackpot of hundreds of millions of dollars in the lottery, when the lottery company redeems the prize, due to the temporary withdrawal of a large amount of funds, it will cause instability in the financial market." ”
Robert said and looked at Zhou Ming and continued: "But Mr. Zhou Ming is not a gambling prize of hundreds of millions of dollars now, but more than 100 billion, if so much money is released at once, what kind of turmoil will be caused to the world's financial market, I don't think I need to say that you can definitely guess, whether it is the stock market or whatever, it will face a large shortage of funds, and the world's economy will face regression." ”
Robert concludes by saying to Sean: "And it is very difficult not only for the financial order of the whole world, but also for the Swiss banks themselves, to pay and mobilize such a large sum of money. ”
"But Mr. Ambassador, is it fair that you have invested such a large sum of money in North Russia? Is it only you Americans who are human beings, and we Northern Russians are not human beings?" This time it was Karelina who spoke, and as a Northern Russian, she was very angry at Robert's words, is it only their Western world order that is important, and the order of Northern Russia can be trampled on at will?
Robert glanced at Karenina and said: "I'm sorry for what happened in North Russia, I admit that we didn't do a good job in the supervision of funds, but you also understand that the United States is a completely open and democratic country, and many of our funds are not regulated, so even Mr. President and the Ministry of Commerce and the Treasury Department want to fully control every fund, it is very unrealistic." ”
Robert thought for a moment and finally added: "You also know that this time the funds are all transferred from Switzerland, and we have no way to supervise them." ”
Karelina scolded shamelessly in her heart, because what happened on the North Russian side was planned by the United States at all, and the person in charge of their Dota Project, Meta, had already cooperated with Zhou Ming, and the United States had nothing to hide from the North Russian economy, but the American ambassador still pretended not to know anything, saying that it was a civil act, what is this shameless?
Of course, Karenina is not a little girl who does not understand politics, she knows very well that this is just Robert's diplomatic rhetoric, after all, there are many things that can be done and not said.
At this time, Zhou Ming asked Su Han to go over and hold Karelina's little hand, and Karenina looked back and saw Zhou Ming's warm smile, which immediately made her feel a lot better.
"What Mr. Ambassador said is very reasonable, it is true that even the government does not cover everything. Zhou Ming said, "It's just the same, how can Mr. Ambassador be sure that I will definitely agree? After all, this money is now in my hands, and it is my business to use it as I want, since you can care whether the people of North Russia can care about my guide's thoughts, then I can also not care about you, right?"
Robert raised his eyebrows, surprised that Zhou Ming dared to say these things in front of his American ambassador, you must know that even the current president of North Russia may not dare to say these things.
"What Mr. Zhou Ming said is very true, Mr. Zhou Ming is a businessman who enjoys freedom, and indeed no one can interfere with your thoughts and practices, and it is your freedom to use your money as you want. ”
Robert said this, and then said: "But I believe that Mr. Zhou Ming, you are a businessman with lofty ideals and ambitions, and your vision is beyond the reach of ordinary people, or it can be said that with such a large amount of wealth, you are destined to become a world-renowned entrepreneur in the future, just like Mr. Tong Gang behind you." ”
"You can tell you about my resume, I also had my own company before I entered politics, and I also worked for some large companies, so I know very well how important it is for an entrepreneur to have a stable market. ”
Robert paused for a moment and said, "Of course, I don't deny that a chaotic market at a certain time will have an advantage over a stable market, but that is also a certain time, but more often than not, a stable market will always be more advantageous than a chaotic market." ”
Robert stretched out his hands to Zhou Ming and said: "Since Mr. Zhou Ming wants to become a world entrepreneur in the future, I think Mr. Zhou Ming will definitely not want his market to be damaged in any way, right? ”
"So," Robert finally said, "for the sake of the stability of the capital market around the world, and for the sake of Mr. Zhou Ming himself, it is better not to touch this money, Mr. Zhou Ming, you not only save the world, but also help yourself, killing two birds with one stone." ”
Robert's words made everyone speechless, and everyone sighed that he deserved to be the first mission ambassador of the United States, this mouth can be said, just a few simple words to raise a request to the height of a savior, and Zhou Ming wants to do this to keep his market from being impacted, as for saving the world, it is just a casual thing.
When such a remark came out, even those of them who were watching were a little excited, not to mention Zhou Ming, who was a direct audience, and the mood was only more agitated.
That's right, Robert showed a confident smile, he looked down at Zhou Ming with a condescending look, in his opinion, he had already said this, what else could Zhou Ming say?
But then Robert's smile froze, because Zhou Ming gave him a very unexpected answer: "I'm sorry, Mr. Ambassador, I don't have any interest in superheroes." ”
Robert didn't react for the first time: "Mr. Zhou Ming, what do you mean by that?"
Zhou Ming shrugged his shoulders and said: "It's not interesting, it's just that I'm a more casual person, I do whatever I want, and I don't care about saving the world or stabilizing the market." ”
"Mr. Zhou Ming, don't you want to be a world-renowned entrepreneur and business tycoon?" Robert asked hurriedly.
"Of course I want to do it, it's always been my dream, and it hasn't changed even now," Zhou Ming said. It's just that I don't think that a chaotic market or a stable market has anything to do with me, even if I have 100 billion now, it will be ten or twenty years before I go to the world stage, so instead of being so conscientious to stabilize the market, it is better to let this market be chaotic, anyway, someone will come out to clean up this stall, and it is impossible to wait for me to come out The market of this world has not yet restored order, right?"
In the end, Zhou Ming looked at Robert with an innocent face and asked, "I don't know if I am satisfied with this answer, Mr. Ambassador?"
This time it was Robert who was entangled, he looked at Zhou Ming in a daze, the muscles in the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously, and at this time he just wanted to say a shameless word to Zhou Ming.
Because it is true that as Zhou Ming said, he is only in his twenties now, no matter how talented he is, if he wants to become a world-renowned business tycoon, it will have to be at least ten or twenty years later, so in this way, what else does he need to care about after such a long time? Anyway, there will always be people in the world order who will come out and try to restore him to peace.
It's just that what makes Robert want to vomit blood is that the one who came out to clean up the mess can only be the United States where he is.
You just care about yourself, you don't care what the world has become, you still say so chic, you are a scoundrel at all!
Robert scolded angrily in his heart, but unlike Robert, Du Peng, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, said: "That's it, we are all young people, and young people do things regardless of importance, so it is reasonable for us to do a little willful thing!"
If he could, Robert now really wanted to stuff his socks that had not been washed for three months into the mouths of these two people and make them shut up themselves, but at this moment, in the face of so many people, he could only come up with his last words: "But you are also representing China here, as one of the big countries of the P5, shouldn't you have a little consciousness as the master of the world order?"
"Isn't this what you Americans often do? Why are you asking us to come now?" Zhou Ming said, "And then again, this is also a national matter, and it has nothing to do with us, I am just an ordinary businessman, I can only represent myself, but I am not able to represent my motherland." ”
Robert is really crazy now, he can be sure that as long as he is given a knife at this time, he will definitely stab Zhou Ming to death.
But Zhou Ming didn't care, and then asked him cheaply: "Mr. Ambassador, I don't know if there are any other teachings? If not, please go out and avoid it first, okay? Because I am still handling business here, because the amount is huge, I can't be careless." ”
"Okay, I'll get out. ”
Robert gritted his teeth, and finally walked out with a black face.
