Chapter 905: America's Top Cocktail Party

Li Guangyu and his entourage did not stay in Japan for long, and the specific matters of cooperation in the future were contacted by their own managers, and they only needed to arrange things.

On the morning of the next day, after Li Guangyu explained that Qin Jiao cooperated with Fujiwara Huiyin's technology procurement and the introduction of talents from major groups, he took a special plane to Vancouver, which was the first stop for a large number of industries of the Li consortium.

Especially after the 5 billion US dollar loan jointly provided by several major Japanese consortia, he was able to make a layout in several places more calmly.

The long flight of Lee Kwang-woo's special plane over the Pacific Ocean was not at all calm in the upper echelons of the United States, and the successive actions of the Lee consortium caught them by surprise in the past few days after they increased tariffs on Lee Kwang-woo.

They did not expect that Li Guangyu's personality would be so strong, and these American conglomerates just wanted to suppress the development momentum of the Li consortium a little, and now it seems that Li Guangyu has no intention of going against the grain, and now he is typically preparing to have a battle with them.

In particular, Boeing lost important orders this time, and the consortium behind it has expressed dissatisfaction with the practices of some consortiums, and the California consortium is also waving its flag behind it, which has put a lot of pressure on the DuPont, Chicago and Ford consortiums.

In order to support the General Motors Group in the U.S. market, the DuPont consortium joined hands with the Ford consortium to suppress imported cars, and Motorola, as the sphere of influence of the Chicago consortium, naturally did not want the U.S. mobile phone market to be occupied by foreign mobile phones.

As the main shareholder of Boeing, the First Citigroup Consortium, as the biggest loser this time, specially invited the speakers of the top 10 US consortiums and some small and medium-sized consortiums to attend the reception in New York.

This is a top-level conference in the United States, and everyone in this meeting is a big family of celebrities, and they reach some resolutions, even the U.S. government can only implement them, they have such influence, and the members of Congress are just their representatives.

The Cold War has dragged on for decades, the U.S. economy has been hampered by the confrontation with the Soviet Union, there has been a slight decline, and the rapid development of Japan and Western Europe has made the U.S. consortium feel strongly threatened.

In recent years, in order to protect their industries from occupying their own markets, they have repeatedly imposed restrictions on foreign companies and increased tariffs to prevent their own industries from losing their fundamentals.

They are already pushing the government to force the Japanese yen to appreciate, so as to increase the cost of Japanese product exports and make it more difficult for Japanese industries to open up in the United States and even the world market.

Before the Japanese threat had passed, the Lee consortium suddenly appeared again, and the Lee consortium was obviously full of hostility towards them.

Bentley Group is very under pressure on their American car market, especially in the field of luxury cars, Jaguar has always occupied the top of the market, not to mention that Bentley Group occupies a relatively small market share, but the market they occupy is the top market, and it is also the most profitable market.

How could GM and Ford be willing to be occupied by the Bentley Group in the field of top luxury cars in the United States, they naturally think that the American market belongs to their American automobile group, and these groups come to grab food, and they need to use all means to drive them out.

If it were just one or two industries, these American consortia would not have deliberately targeted the Lee consortium, mainly because the Lee consortium had developed too fast in recent years, and the fast American consortia were unbelievable and unacceptable, and they did not want the Japanese consortium to fall down and a huge consortium standing in the East.

Especially after the Lee consortium suddenly entered the energy industry this time and also discovered the Marandou iron ore mine, the American consortium completely let go of its hesitation and decided to beat the Lee consortium.

Second-rate consortiums control trade, first-class consortiums control technology, top consortiums control resources, and the Li consortium enters the energy field, which they do not want to see, especially this time the Li consortium has attracted such a large number of people to carry out joint venture development, which makes them feel a strong threat.

These top conglomerates in the United States do not want one day a consortium to be stronger than them, and as long as such forces come to the fore, they will resolutely suppress them.

However, there is also disunity within the United States, for example, this time, although the First Citi Consortium and the California Consortium are full of goodwill towards the Lee Consortium, but the two consortia have never lacked open and secret rivalries over the years, and the Western Consortium led by the California Consortium and the Eastern Consortium led by First Citi are equally fierce.

Sweeping the snow in front of the door is not only what some families in the East like to do, but also the internal consortia in the United States.

This time, some US consortiums wanted to suppress the Lee consortium, but none of the consortiums opposed it, and they did not harm their own interests anyway.

However, after the Li consortium counterattacked, the strength of the first Citigroup Boeing suffered huge losses, and they were immediately dissatisfied.

After arriving at the banquet hall, Nick Chiannini, who was the spokesman of the California consortium, said to his old rival, Johnny Stillman, chairman of the board of directors of First Citibank: "Why can't you sit still so quickly? Isn't it just an order for dozens of planes, it is not a matter for you at all, and now the situation is complicated, we must stabilize it." ”

Johnny Stillman immediately retorted to the old rival's words: "Kiannini, what you did was only afraid of chilling your collaborators and allies, not only did you not help your ally this time, but you didn't even say a word of solidarity, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for you to cooperate well in the future." ”

Although the California consortium did not take action against the Lee consortium this time, they acquiesced to it, and even did not remind the news that the Lee consortium would be suppressed in advance.

This time is very harmful to the cooperation between the two sides, if their consortium does not show a little sincerity now, after this time, the relationship between their California consortium and the Li consortium will only fall into the freezing point.

Nick Kiannini said: "I believe that Mr. Li Guangyu is wise, at present, their consortium in the United States is suppressed by many consortiums in the east, and it is unlikely that he will let him have trouble with our western consortium again, well, I almost forgot that you are one of the representatives of the eastern consortium, no wonder the Lee consortium did not buy Boeing planes this time, it is a pity, I think the day of the rise of Airbus is coming, and this opportunity is still given to them by yourself." ”

The Chicago consortium, the DuPont consortium and the Ford consortium are all eastern consortiums, which are also the main forces to suppress the Lee consortium, and there is also the support of the Morgan consortium, which is also a major shareholder of General Motors.

The most interesting thing is that the first Citigroup is mainly controlled by the Rockefeller and Stillman families, Morgan and Rockefeller have been fighting for hundreds of years, this time Morgan suppressed other forces, but it led to the loss of the interests of the Rockefeller family.

Anyway, these consortia are all from the east, and they have never been very harmonious with their California consortia, and it is best to see them dog-eat-dog today, anyway, he is not ready to express too many opinions today, purely to see the excitement.
