Chapter 1070 It's Cold Today, It's Even Cold Tomorrow
"What do you think you can do about the current Sino-US relationship?" After a moment of silence, Ding Haijun suddenly asked.
"Sino-American relations?" Chen Geng was stunned.
The current Sino-US relations can be said to have fallen to the lowest point since the establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries, especially the current Bill Jr. administration, which is particularly tough and hostile in its attitude toward China, and many dignitaries of the US Government have made not very good remarks on many occasions; a few years later, we often use the term "political cold and economic heat" to describe our relations with the United States, but the Sino-US relations in 1994 were "politically cold and not too economically hot."
The most terrible thing is that the current Soviet Union has reached the eve of collapse, and in the eyes of many people, the difficulties encountered by the Soviet Union are only temporary, but Chen Geng knows that the Soviet Union will probably not be able to hold out this year, and once the Soviet Union collapses, the United States, which has defeated the Soviet Union, will be even more invincible.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at Chen Geng's frowning brows, Ding Haijun felt that Chen Geng's reaction was not quite right: under normal circumstances, after hearing these words, shouldn't Chen Geng's reaction be eager and excited? How could he react like this?
Chen Geng did not answer, but asked Ding Haijun: "Are you more optimistic about the future changes in Sino-US relations?"
Comrade Lao Ding did not quite understand why Chen Geng asked such a question, but he still nodded without hesitation: "Of course! Although Sino-US relations have encountered some setbacks, the Soviet Union is still there, the foundation of Sino-US relations is still there, and the economic and trade exchanges between the two countries are constantly improving; last year, our total trade with the United States exceeded $45 billion, and although the diplomatic and political relations between the two countries are very unavoidable, economic exchanges between the two countries are constantly rising. ”
One more thing to say here is that in 1993, the total trade volume between China and the United States reached 32 billion US dollars, because of the emergence of Chen Geng, many situations are different.
Chen Geng shook his head: "I am just the opposite of your opinion, as far as the political and diplomatic relations between the two countries are concerned, I think the two years will be very cold, and the next two or three years will be even colder, and it may even develop to a certain degree of military confrontation, and the turnaround in the relations between the two countries will not have a chance to appear until at least three years later." ”
“……”
Comrade Lao Ding didn't speak, but the stunned and incredulous expression on his face couldn't hide it: You kid are bluffing me, right?
Chen Geng didn't speak, but nodded at Comrade Lao Ding's gaze: Yes, that's exactly how I see it.
Sure that Chen Geng was not joking with himself, and then thinking of Chen Geng's relationship with the current US government, Comrade Lao Ding's expression became serious: "Mr. Chen, are you ...... Know something?"
In fact, at this moment, Ding Haijun's heart was already in turmoil: if Chen Geng didn't know something, how could he make it so clear that he was not optimistic about the good development of Sino-US relations in the short term?
Considering that Chen Geng has good personal relationships with many members of the US Congress, many Pentagon executives, and core members of the current Bill Jr. administration, it is almost certain that he knows some of the Bill Jr. administration's China strategy.
"That's right......" Seeing Ding Haijun staring at him, Chen Geng waved his hand: "Lao Ding, don't ask, I can tell you that this level is already the limit, if you believe me, it's best to prepare for the winter, of course, if you believe in your strategic judgment more, it doesn't matter, I can fully understand." ”
“……”
Ding Haijun stopped talking, and at the same time his mind began to spin rapidly: What does Chen Geng know? What exactly does the US Government want to do to damage Sino-US relations? Why is Chen Geng so sure about this? Or is Chen Geng deliberately sending this signal under some instructions from the Bill Jr. government?
It is no wonder that Ding Haijun thinks too much, and even directly doubts whether Chen Geng was instructed by the US government, but the information revealed by Chen Geng is too big and too heavy, and will even directly affect some strategic decisions and long-term plans of Huaxia; in this case, personal interests cannot be compared with national interests at all, and personal interests must also be compromised for the interests of the state and the nation.
But the problem is, it is definitely not possible to go back with such a question, Ding Haijun gritted his teeth: "Boy, if you marry my daughter, you will be our son-in-law in Huaxia, as a son-in-law, since you know the difficulties that your father-in-law's family will encounter next, should you show some sincerity?"
"My sincerity is not enough?" Chen Geng smiled in the face of Ding Haijun's almost scoundrel words: "Old Ding, don't keep thinking about asking for something from me, to tell the truth, on the premise of not betraying the interests of the United States, I can indeed say something to you, but I want to ask you: Why?"
"Relying on ......"
After only one word, Ding Haijun was speechless.
He understood what Chen Geng meant: I have shown enough sincerity in order to marry your daughter, and it is time for you to behave.
How to behave?
Of course, it depends on Huaxia's attitude on this matter.
After knowing what Chen Geng told them, Huaxia could certainly use the fact that Chen Geng wanted to marry Ding Ruoyan to obtain more benefits, but they had to take one thing into account: once Chen Geng was really provoked, and even caused Chen Geng's hostility towards Huaxia, would it be good or bad for Huaxia?
After all, over the years, Huaxia has gained too many benefits from Chen Geng, and more importantly, in the foreseeable future, Chen Geng will inevitably contribute more and more to Sino-American relations, and relative to the interests of the country and the nation, a woman is really nothing, even if this woman is the daughter of the second-in-command of the Chinese diplomatic system.
After a deep glance at Chen Geng, Ding Haijun nodded: "I will give you a message as soon as possible." ”
It is estimated that the chip that Chen Geng suddenly took out will give many people a headache.
……………………
"What?
Chen Geng has internal information from the Bill Jr. government and thinks that Sino-US relations will continue to decline for a period of time in the future.
The news that Ding Haijun brought back shocked many people!
After all, almost four years have passed since that incident, and time can dilute everything, and with the deepening of economic and trade exchanges between China and the United States, many people, including some major leaders at the top level, are optimistic about the future of Sino-US relations, believing that although Sino-US relations are relatively cold now, they will definitely warm up again in the future.
The news brought back by the Ding Navy surprised many people! In addition to the surprise, there was a fierce debate......
"Chen Geng won't be deliberately alarmist, right?"
"It's not out of the question......
"No way! What's in it for him?"
"What's in it off? Huh...... The benefits are great, such as his marriage to the daughter of the Lao Ding family......"
"Are you stupid? That girl of the Lao Ding family is just a woman no matter how much she is, but what are his interests in Huaxia? Once we confirm that he is deliberately alarmist in the future, how much adverse impact will it have on him, do you think he will not count in his heart?"
"Maybe it'......"
"Okay, then you come up with a convincing enough reason, do you think you can convince everyone by saying a few strange words in such a yin and yang way?"
…………
It's messed up!
It's all messed up!
But as the discussion continued to deepen, everyone gradually reached a consensus on one point: in terms of the credit that Chen Geng had shown in the past, he must know something.
On the basis of this consensus, there is also a consensus that everyone knows but no one will say: Chen Geng is somewhat dissatisfied with everyone's attitude towards this marriage.
Previously, many people didn't think that Chen Geng's dissatisfaction was a big deal, but combined with Chen Geng's attitude through this incident and his previous intention to enter the American political arena, the situation is different - he is using this way to release his attitude to his own side.
It was also at this time that McDonald Jr. came, along with MacDonald Jr., and Russell, senior vice president of Texas Instruments.
Because this time point is very ingenious, or it may be out of consideration to show favor to Chen Geng, in the arrangement of the next series of links, Chen Geng can feel the obvious difference, if it is said that those places are different, I can't say the specifics at once, but it just makes you different.
For example, I visited China Eastern Airlines this time.
Speaking of visiting China Eastern Airlines, in fact, before visiting Air China last time, Chen Geng made a special call to the leaders of China Eastern Airlines, saying that Mr. McDonald Jr. would come to China in a few days, and he would visit with McDonald Jr. at that time.
China Eastern Airlines naturally knew about Chen Geng's visit to Air China, and if it weren't for Chen Geng's phone call, China Eastern Airlines would naturally be unhappy: We support you so much, you Chen Geng didn't even bother to take the initiative to come over and say something?
