Chapter 688: General Strike
To say that sometimes, a woman's receptivity is indeed weaker.
Chen Dahe hasn't finished a cup of coffee here, Emma is full of mush, Luca has already sorted out his head, and raised his head with excitement, "Boss, maybe, we can do a big deal!"
Do you have a big vote?
Looking at Luca beside her, Emma felt that her brain was even more messy, wasn't it big enough to scare Rockefeller?
And Chen Dahe unconsciously put down the crossed Erlang's legs, put the coffee cup on the plate, and looked at Luca, "What do you say?"
Luca didn't rush to answer, but took out a stack of materials from his briefcase and put them upside down in front of Chen Dahe, "Boss, look at this." ”
Chen Dahe picked it up and flipped through a few pages, but found that it was basically some British political information, including the progress of the Sathian's reforms, the reactions of all sides, large and small, good and bad, and just when he was a little strange, he suddenly saw a message.
The National Union of Mineworkers is planning a massive strike against Prime Minister Sadam's free-market reform package at a time when the government is engaged in intense negotiations with the unions!
Chen Dahe looked up at Luca suddenly, "The British economy is in trouble!"
"Yes," Luca took a deep breath, and with his familiarity with the information, he didn't need to look at it to know where the boss had turned, and he didn't care about Emma, who was dazed beside him, Masase, explained, " According to the Conservative reform plan led by the Sagard, all the mining areas will be sold to private owners, and the loss-making mines will be closed, however, there is no detailed description of how the workers will be resettled. ”
"It can't be," exclaimed Emma, at last, when she came to her senses, "that such an imperfect scheme would cause turmoil, and the Satans would not fail to understand." ”
"Nothing is impossible," Lukka turned to look at her, " In fact, as early as five years ago, this plan had been drawn up by the Sathians who were not in power at that time, and was disclosed by the Economist magazine, along with the Conservative Party's various plans, which caused a sensation at the time, in this plan, they set several steps to avoid the tragedy of the previous Heath government being ousted by the miners' union strike, but under the resolute resistance of the miners' union, the Conservative Party did not directly admit it, and thus was deliberately forgotten by the artificially forgotten, and now, the Conservative Party, which is firmly established, has once again come up with the plan of that time, and has begun to implement it secretly, but it is not alarmed, until now, the miners whose interests have been damaged are finally going to show their fists again!"
"They're going to be in big trouble!" Emma let out a groan, at this time whatever Rockefeller was left behind, she thought of the global economic trend, although in the seventies the British economy was once surpassed by France, Japan and Germany, but they are still the old powers of the Western world, and since the Sathians came to power, the country's economy has entered a period of rapid growth again, and there is a tendency to reoccupy the third place in the world, if there is turmoil in Britain at this time, it will definitely affect the global economy, of course, the social camp does not need to be ignored, the entire European and American camp will accompany him to dive!
No wonder Luca said that he wanted to do a big vote, if all this comes true, this vote is indeed big enough!
"Yes, if there is a strike, whether it is the miners or the Conservatives, or the global stock market, there will be big trouble, but the problem now is that nothing has happened yet!" Luca turned his body and looked at Chen Dahe and continued, "Sir, I want to hear your opinion, which side to bet on?"
"Bet?" Emma's voice rose sharply, "Is this still a gamble, as long as Samuel is not a fool, she will definitely meet the demands of the miners' union and save the British economy!"
Luka didn't respond, just pursed the corners of his mouth, still stubbornly looking at Chen Dahe.
"No," Chen Dahe finally spoke, chuckling, "in her heart, the only way to preserve the British economy is to unswervingly push forward with her reform plan, so Satan will never compromise." ”
The 84-85 strike, which had a profound impact on the Western economy and established Britain's status as an economic power for the next 20 years, was finally defeated by the strong attitude of the Saharan after a year-long stalemate, and thus finally achieved her reputation as the Iron Lady.
Of course, in the eyes of the miners, it is notoriety, but so what, the three words of the Iron Lady were given by them themselves.
"Boss," Lukka had an excited look in his eyes, "you mean, like me, that Sacha will not compromise?"
"It's impossible," Emma still couldn't believe it, "don't say that in Britain, even the United States, Germany, and France, they won't allow anything to affect the world economic turmoil!"
"You're right," Chen Dahe looked at her with a smile, "All Western countries won't allow it, but now it's only the Sasa who can decide the direction of Britain!
Speaking of this, Chen Dahe stood up and paced back and forth by the window, " It is true that the world economy is becoming more and more interconnected and has a certain influence on each other, but no sovereign country will be willing to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, let alone Britain, which once claimed to be the empire on which the sun never sets, and the proud British, who are still immersed in the glory of the past, will definitely disdain the fingers from other countries, and at the same time, the Sathians are not without a chance of winning, and the reason why Heath was ousted by the miners was because he did not seize the British backbone, and now, these stalwarts are rallying around the Sathians. ”
"The backbone?" After all, it was the elite of the financial world, and at this time, Emma finally gradually returned to normal, and said in thought, "You mean, the middle class and the big capitalists?"
"Of course, Britain is originally a capitalist country, isn't it," Chen Dahe looked back and smiled, "In this country, it must be those who hold wealth that can play a decisive role, and Sasha's reform has deeply attracted these fanatics who chase profits like bloody sharks, and firmly hold them as a whole, as long as they don't leave, Sasha will be unbreakable!"
"But," Emma asked, "this is a country in the name of democracy, after all, and she can't completely ignore the opinions of her voters!"
"This one is simpler," Luca said with a chuckle as if he were someone's compliment, polishing without taking the lead, "TV, radio, Newspapers, either in the hands of the government or in the hands of the elite, compared to them, the miners' unions have not many channels to speak out, at first people may support them based on sympathy, but after a long time, under the influence of the mainstream media, God knows what kind of people they will become, in this way, it will not pose any threat to the Conservative Party, on the contrary, the Conservative Party will not take advantage of this opportunity to completely take away some of the rights of the unions, such as the right to strike, it is not necessarily!"
