There is no good way to avoid the G7 and continue to trade with the Warsaw Pact members, but it has been decided that the Donghua Trading Company will end the barter method.

At the same time, he is also waiting for news from Zhang Ziyu's side, and is deciding on the follow-up approach to see what the G7 plans are.

Before Li Guangyu waited for Zhang Ziyu's report, he welcomed a joint visit from Toshihide Iwasaki of the Mitsubishi Foundation of Japan, Konitz Stillman, vice chairman of the board of directors of First Citibank, the Duke of Westminster of England, and Umberto Agnelli of Italy.

This is a very powerful delegation, and its own strength is quite terrifying, not to mention that they are still representing their own domestic government this time.

If the Lee consortium is unwilling to accept some of their conditions, then the G7 meeting in Japan will formally discuss the plan for sanctions against the Lee consortium.

The reason why they came to Xiangjiang to negotiate with Li Guangyu so strongly this time was mainly because the strength of the Li consortium was enough for them to show such courtesy.

In terms of economy, the Lee consortium is stronger than many countries, and as far as these forces in them are concerned, Mitsubishi and First Citi are still qualified to compete with the Lee consortium, and other families and consortium power representatives are not qualified to compare with the Lee consortium at all, even if the Duke of Westminster family is the same.

In the past six months, the employees of the Lee Consortium Holding Company have officially exceeded 1 million, while the United States has also exceeded 100,000, the United Kingdom has 70,000 employees, Canada has more than 50,000, France also has more than 20,000 employees, and Japan has less.

Although West Germany and Italy have less business and only a few thousand employees, these two countries are also unwilling to fight with the Lee consortium, so they also arrange for representatives of important forces to come and consult with them.

The G7 governments only wanted to cut off trade between the Lee consortium and the Warsaw Pact, and they did not want to drive the Lee consortium's industries out of their country.

In addition to Japan, the impact of last year's stock market crash is still being paid for by the other six countries, and the domestic economic situation is not very good.

At that time, if the Lee consortium fanned the flames behind it, the government would be very passive, after all, the employment situation in various countries is very grim now, and if it can be resolved peacefully, they are not willing to take too much risk and fight with the Lee consortium.

Of course, if the Lee consortium is unwilling to give in, then they cannot be blamed, and when the time comes, public opinion will be on the side of their government, and the problem will be solved.

In the sixth conference hall of the Wheelock Building, Li Guangyu, Cao Weiqing, Chen Dong, Yuan Tianfan, Qing Hong, Li Xuelan, and Gan Qin met with the delegates.

After the two sides sat down, Li Guangyu said loudly: "I am really surprised by the arrival of Mr. Iwasaki, Mr. Stillman, Mr. Agnelli and others today!

They were also a little speechless about Li Guangyu pretending not to know anything here, they didn't believe that Li Guangyu hadn't received any news.

As the leader of this battle, Iwasaki Toshiei didn't want to pretend with Li Guangyu, this matter was still straightforward, you must know that the four northern islands have always been their Japanese pass, and they have never given up the idea of taking it back.

Only when the Warsaw Pact and the Soviet Union collapsed will they have a chance to recover the four northern islands, and this time they will not let the Lee consortium sabotage their plans, and they must push for drastic changes in the Warsaw Pact member countries.

He said loudly: "Mr. Li, I also believe that you understand the current world situation very well, the Warsaw Pact member countries maintain the current development in the interests of all our parties, and it is also in the interests of your mainland, a strong Warsaw Pact organization is not beneficial to the whole world, this will only increase the risk of global war, and I hope that Mr. Li can stop in time to avoid aiding and abetting the abuse of people around the world to bring great harm." ”

Li Guangyu was speechless when he heard this, and now the Warsaw Pact organization has become synonymous with evil in the mouth of Iwasaki Toshiei, and Li Guangyu is trading with the other party as if he has done a heinous thing.

Yuan Tianfan said loudly: "Mr. Iwasaki, as far as we know, the country behind you, that is, the G7, has been increasing loans to the Soviet Union in recent years, and you are wholeheartedly trying to help the Soviet Union get out of the predicament, and many trade restrictions on the Soviet Union have been lifted. ”

First Citibank Könitz Stillman said: "I'm afraid you have some misunderstandings, although there are many reports that we are in the G7 to support the reform of the Soviet Union, but at the moment we do not have a single amount of money in the past, at least until the Warsaw Pact members and the Soviet Union do not make meaningful changes, our support will always be only in words."

On the contrary, Mr. Li gave us a lot of headaches, seeing that the other side was about to lose their hold, but you gave them a large amount of blood transfusion, which made it impossible for many of our negotiations between the G7 and the Soviet Union to continue.

That's why we're here this time to persuade Mr. Li to avoid unpleasant things happening between Mr. Li and the governments of the seven countries, and we don't want our friendship in the past ten years to be ruined because of some trivial things. ”

Of course, Li Guangyu is well aware of the virtue of the G-7, and they are all talking about the sky, but it is impossible to expect them to give actual support, and now the Soviet Union is facing such a situation, and the G-7 has promised a lot of benefits, but it has not seen actual support.

Let the deteriorating economy within the Soviet Union constantly force the Soviet Union to make concessions in order to achieve their goal of transforming and even dismembering the Soviet Union.

Li Guangyu said: "Both of us are aware of the current situation, many things can be clarified without trade rules, we are all the same kind of people, you talk about your opinions, I hope you don't go too far, and don't mention those conditions that I know I can't accept." ”

Those present are all at the helm of families and consortia, and many things don't need to be so hypocritical, and they are not politicians, no matter how much they say for the sake of the world and the people, it is useless, these only value one point, that is, interests, in the eyes of these consortia and families, it is always beneficial to themselves.

Iwasaki is very familiar with Lee Kwang-woo's personality, and he doesn't want to hypocritically talk to Lee Kwang-woo, which should be something that should be done between their G7 and Soviet politicians.

He said loudly: "Mr. Li, we can not pursue the trade orders signed by Donghua Trading Company before, and we hope that from today onwards, your Donghua Trading Company can temporarily stop purchasing products from Warsaw Pact member countries, and at the same time, I also hope that Mr. Li will not provide grain to Warsaw Pact member countries."

As for other trade, it is your own, and we believe that governments will not interfere with the normal operation of enterprises. ”

Li Guangyu had expected this, but after banning them from buying the products of the Warsaw Pact member countries, the business of the Donghua Trading Company was basically gone, and the Warsaw Pact countries did not have much foreign exchange, and the other party would not often do business that only entered and could not be exported.

The G7 is also ruthless enough, knowing that the Soviet Union is short of grain, and still restricting the export of it to other countries.
