As for the identities of those high-ranking officials who are publicized, they may be managers of state-owned enterprises or administrators of government functional departments, and the specific means are varied.

There is a very sad reality in China that the layman leads the insider, the chief executive of a department may lack the most basic understanding of the specific business of his department, and the senior management of a state-owned enterprise may not understand what the modern enterprise management system is.

Because they don't need to understand these at all, the only thing they need to do is to figure out the "people", and leave all the specific work to their subordinates to do.

It is entirely conceivable that such a group of officials, whose IQ is basically equal to that of low-level creatures except for playing with power, will be easily persuaded when faced with foreign cunning and wealthy professional chaebols.

What's more, these officials have no sense of responsibility and mission at all, and they can be lightly moved by all kinds of practical interests, and they are not at all concerned about what kind of impact the decisions made as a result of this will be.

The lifting of the restriction on the proportion of shares held by foreign investors in domestic banks some time ago is the result of these public relations activities, and similar things will continue to play out in the foreseeable future.

Pang Jindong has always believed that the so-called "betrayal" has multiple meanings, especially in today's era, betrayal is not necessarily the cession and sale of territory, it is likely to be some other more obscure acts of betraying national sovereignty, such as selling economic rights and interests.

Pang Jindong originally thought that Otto Rothschild's trip was for public relations, but he didn't expect that he came specifically for himself, so he was very surprised: "What is he looking for me?"

"Then you're going to ask him!"

Anderson's words made Pang Jindong a little vigilant, and it was natural to think that the Rothschilds might want to unite themselves and seek extraneous economic rights and interests in China.

But in front of Anderson, Pang Jindong can't show this vigilance, otherwise it will arouse the vigilance of the other party.

Although the two are good friends, they are in different positions and pursue different things.

Pang Jindong sighed and said, "I can't imagine what will happen!"

"I don't know, but it's a good thing to believe because he's a good friend of mine......," after a pause, Anderson added, "Of course it's your good friend!"

"What will be a good thing? Will it be a cooperative business?" After a pause, Pang Jindong said categorically: "I am very satisfied with the current Yiqiē, and I have no other ambitions!"

"I'll talk about specific things when you see him! I'm only responsible for suing you, and I won't get involved in anything else!"

Pang Jindong reluctantly agreed: "Okay......"

"Oh, by the way......" Anderson pretended to remember suddenly, and said casually, "I've heard that your Gwadar base is doing well, and the Imperial Industries Group is also doing well!"

"Thank you for the compliment!" Pang Jindong laughed dryly twice and sighed: "The intelligence department of country M is really powerful!"

Although Anderson has been escorting the Blood Lion Legion and handing over a large amount of business to the Blood Lion Legion, Pang Jindong never reported the work of the Blood Lion Legion to Anderson.

After all, Anderson is not a member of the Blood Lion Legion, let alone Pang Jindong's superior, so Pang Jindong thinks that he has no such obligation. Pang Jindong would rather not do those businesses than let Anderson interfere in the affairs of the Blood Lion Legion.

Nothing in this world can be exchanged for sovereignty and dignity.

Because of this, Pang Jindong never told Anderson about the formation of the Imperial Industrial Group engaged in the military industry and the construction of the Gwadar base.

However, Pang Jindong also knows very well that these things cannot be hidden from Anderson, including the DDX battleship that is being built under high secrecy.

Anderson pointed out in a pun: "If it weren't for the intelligence department suing me, I wouldn't have been able to know from you!"

Pang Jindong immediately replied: "As the president of country M, you have never told me about state secrets, nor have you handed over to me the advanced military technology of the US military!"

"You're right!" Anderson seemed to agree with Pang Jindong's statement, but then said: "Under normal circumstances, I have no reason or need to care about the development of the Blood Lion Legion, or even if you build an arsenal to produce weapons and sell them to country Z! But when your arsenal uses the technology of country M to build warships, and it is possible to sell them to country Z, the nature of things changes!"

Now that the other party already knows, Pang Jindong simply admitted: "You're talking about DDX!"

"That's right!"

"I'm making it, and I really plan to sell it to country Z!"

"You ......" Anderson didn't expect Pang Jindong to admit it so happily, and he was stunned for a long time before questioning: "It turns out that you love your motherland very much!"

"There is no one who does not love their motherland, and the people of my country are the same, although there are such bad pens as Ma Licheng and Shi Yinhong, but most of the people of Z country still deeply love their motherland! Having said that, Ma Licheng and Shi Yinhong also have to put on a patriotic hat for themselves, and they dare not openly admit that they are traitors and lackeys who are punished by everyone!"

Anderson didn't know who Ma Licheng and Shi Yinhong, the two traitorous scholars who looked like clowns, were who they were, but thought that Pang Jindong's remarks were simply confusing the topic to delay time, and the purpose was to buy time to find a reasonable explanation.

Anderson asked slowly, "So you're different from what I imagined?"

Pang Jindong asked rhetorically, "What do you think I am?"

"You are a mercenary, and mercenaries have no motherland! Although you are a native of country Z, you only serve for the sake of interests, and the government of country Z has no appeal to you at all!"

"That's right!"

Pang Jindong said these two words against his will, because once Anderson's statement was denied, not only would the friendship between the two people break down, but it would also have a negative impact on the Blood Lion Legion and the entire Imperial Holding Group.

At that time, Pang Jindong not only can't do anything with Anderson, but also has to mention the blows that Anderson may inflict on him everywhere.

Pang Jindong doesn't think there's anything wrong with this kind of unwilled statement, because what kind of feelings a person has for his country is reflected through actions, not by words.

Anderson was a little confused by Pang Jindong: "Since you think so, why do you want to help country Z improve its naval technology?"

"For the money!"

"Does Congress Z give you a lot of money?"

"Of course!" After a pause, Pang Jindong said again: "But it's much less than what country M can give?"

Anderson smiled out loud and asked, "You don't want country M to pay for this warship, do you?"

"Of course not!" Pang Jindong shook his head and said, "Country M won't do this at all, because there is no need to do it!"

"And what exactly do you mean?"

"This matter has to start from the beginning...... Pang Jindong concealed part of the facts, distorted the other part of the facts, and then told the story: "You know, I used to work at the Corbino Center, and when the center disintegrated, I took some things, even if it was my own pension, including some of the design materials of DDX!" But because it is only part of the information, the one built on this is only an imperfect version, and the comprehensive ability is far lower than the genuine DDX battleship of country M, so I assert that country M will not spend money to buy pirated versions!"

"Then why are you giving it to country Z?"

"Because only country Z can afford the right price, and only country Z urgently needs this!" Anderson thought wrongly, Pang Jindong's words just now were just feelings, and the excuse for selling warships had already been thought of: "I know that country Z is the enemy of country M, but I want you to understand that what I pursue is interests." I know you're worried, but keep your heart in your stomach, how can one pirated warship pose a threat to several genuine warships?"

"But it is always what we don't want to see if the naval strength of country Z is improved!"

"You should remember the historical 'Model of Peace' program!"

"It was the honeymoon period between the two countries, and it was still in the Cold War at that time, and we needed to support country Z against the former Soviet Union!" Anderson sneered twice, and Chi Guoguo said the strategic intention of country M: "But now there is no such need!"

If some so-called strategists were to change to him, he might have made a big deal about Anderson, saying that "peace and development" are the two major themes of the world, that cooperation between country Z and country M is far more than confrontation, and that the two countries should jointly shoulder the responsibility of maintaining world peace and stability.

These strategists are really stupid hats, because they don't even understand the most basic truth that "one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers", so Pang Jindong did not say anything similar, but told Sù Anderson: "Although there is no need for this now, I propose this matter to explain why country M engaged in an arms race with the former Soviet Union in the first place!"

What kind of wisdom does Anderson have, when he heard this, he immediately understood what Pang Jindong meant: "Are you saying that country M can also have an arms race with country Z?"

Due to the differences in political and social systems, the arms race dragged down the former Soviet Union, but it made country M rich and strong.

The enterprises of country M earn high profits due to a large number of military production tasks, and in addition to contributing a large amount of tax revenue to the country, the citizens of country M obtain high incomes.

Due to the perfect social welfare system, the people of country M did not have the habit of saving money, and immediately turned these high incomes into consumption, which in turn led to the rapid development of the tertiary industry, increased employment opportunities, and ultimately promoted economic prosperity.
