Chapter 676: The Four Great Families
Chapter 676 of the Four Great Families
……
Circling among groups of domestic and foreign business elites and high-ranking political officials. Wang Zheng not only has to have a high-speed brain, but also has long sleeves and is good at dancing.
Fortunately, after more than two years of experience, he is able to cope with all this. So, the two-hour luncheon passed without a panic.
Because the school building of the real Shennong Academy is still under construction, and there is nothing surprising about the temporarily leased school building. Therefore, after the luncheon, after simply taking these guests around the academy, he took the vehicle that had been prepared a long time ago and took them to Taoyuan Villa for settlement.
There is no doubt that this is the highest standard of foreign guests received by Taoyuan Villa since its establishment. Naturally, they have also attracted a stir among the tourists who are visiting the mountain resort.
When one after another international political and business tycoons got out of the car and were guided by the staff of the villa to arrange to stay, their images were quickly photographed by the smartphones in the hands of tourists, and quickly spread throughout China and even the world through Weibo, WeChat and other media. With the help of the neuronal mastermind instructed by Wang Zheng, Taoyuan Villa has undoubtedly become famous in front of the world again.
"Cross, when are we going to meet the 'Son of God'?"
"Haven't you already seen it?"
Cross Rockefeller stood in front of the window, looking at the antique courtyard full of Chinese style outside, and said calmly without looking back.
"You know that's not what I'm talking about!"
Matthew Mellon crossed his arms and spoke in a somewhat dissatisfied tone.
"I don't think it's a good time to meet each other. Moreover, this time when I came to Huaxia, the family did not explain any major tasks, but just let us get to know each other and have an intuitive understanding of Mr. Wang's personality and preferences. Therefore, we can wait for those political and business elites to leave almost thick, and it is not too late to visit. I think he'll have more time to talk to us. Steve Dupont took a sip of the red wine in his glass, "Well, John, this wine is really good, do you want it?"
"John, you have read a copy of the Tao Te Ching eight or nine times. I admit it contains the political wisdom of the classical Chinese era, but do you watch it too many times?" said Matthew Mellon.
Hearing the words of the two, John Morgan, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, closed the book in his hand with great care, and then pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and after looking at the two of them with warm eyes, he smiled: "Steve, I also like red wine, but it's not a necessity." … Matthew, "Tao Te Ching" is a representative work of Taoism, a native religion in China, which contains classical ideas that have influenced Chinese civilization for 3,000 years. If we want to understand the thinking and wisdom of the Chinese, the Tao Te Ching is a very good way. Moreover, China is now the only superpower in the world that can match the United States, or even surpass the United States. If we don't want to be marginalized, it's important to understand what the Chinese are thinking and what will they do in the future?"
"John, the Tao Te Ching is important, but it can't tell us what we want to know!" Steve Dupont said calmly.
"Of course. But it allowed me to deal with Chinese people, including the guy who was called a 'son of God' by the New York Times, without breaking the other person's taboos, and I was able to easily understand the other person's train of thought. ”
"'Son of God'?" Matthew Mellon scoffed, "How could this guy have such an amazing career in two years if he wasn't backed by other mysterious forces we don't know about!"
"Matthew, no matter what's behind the other person's back. But at least now he is an existence that we cannot easily offend. Cross Rockefeller withdrew his gaze from the window and turned away.
"Cross, I'm not that stupid!"
"As you remember, we came here to collect information and bring it back to the family elders for analysis. In addition to reprimanding, don't meddle in your own affairs, and don't break the other person's taboos. Of course, you can grasp the scale of the latter sentence. ”
After John Morgan finished speaking, the other three had completely different expressions on their faces.
……
"Everyone is arranged?"
After dinner, Wang Zheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the study and looked at the clear night sky outside and asked.
"Yes, boss!" Wang Lei said respectfully.
Hearing this, Wang Zheng nodded, and rubbed his forehead with a tired expression. Even if he is full of energy, he feels a little lacking in energy after fighting wits and courage with these shrewd political and business tycoons for most of the day. However, thinking that today's matter was not completed, he had to fight his spirits.
"Messati, where are they?"
"Meigu No. 3 Courtyard, but I have already gone to the villa in Zaohua Valley through the underground transportation system just now. Yukio Hatoyama and Yasuo Mitsui were also there. ”
"Hmm!"
Just as Wang Zheng turned around and was about to go to them, he stopped after walking a few steps.
"Yamamoto is here this time, right?"
"Yes! Arranged in the No. 97 courtyard of 'Langu'!"
Wang Zheng nodded, "There are too many people here this time, I don't have time to see him." So, you can talk to him for me. If he gets acquainted, except for Shennong Technology, the rest of the cooperation will remain the same. If not, show him the video of 'Yukimura Yamashita'!"
"Understood!"
"Oh, yes. Uncle Zhong, let Sima Sui Tho, Sun Wu and Wu Qi also go over together. ”
"Yes, young master!"
After coming out of the study, saying a word to his family as usual, and comforting Yu Yixue, Wang Zheng came to the villa in Zaohua Valley through the underground transportation system.
"Master!"
Seeing Wang Zheng enter the door, Mesati, Yukio Hatoyama and Yasuo Mitsui, who were sitting on the sofa in the living room talking to each other, hurriedly stood up and greeted each other.
"Sit down!"
Wang Zheng waved his hand, but he was not polite, and sat in the middle of the main seat of several people.
"There are three main things that brought you here today. First, the results of Messati's visit to China. Second, expand our influence in Dongying. Third, the separation of military and political affairs. ”
"Let's talk about the first thing first!" Wang Zheng turned his gaze to Mesati, who understood, took out the documents he had prepared before and handed them to Wang Zheng.
"After half a month of negotiations, we signed 138 cooperation terms with the Chinese government, involving political, military and cultural aspects, but the most of them are infrastructure construction, including high-speed rail, including: connecting Yangcheng, Ningnan, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Phnom Penh, Bangkok, all the way to Singapore, a total length of 3,589 kilometers of Yangxin high-speed railway, from Mingkun to Vientiane, to Bangkok, 883 kilometers of Mingman high-speed railway, Mingkun to Naypyidaw, to Bangkok, a total length of 1,238 kilometers of southwest high-speed railway, connecting Hanoi, Vientiane and Naypyidaw, a total length of 789 kilometers of high-speed rail through-line, plus the extension of the Jakartaung high-speed railway through the whole of Java, a total length of 1,217 kilometers of high-speed rail lines around the whole island of Borneo. The total length of the six high-speed rail lines is 7,235 kilometers, the construction span is five years, and the total investment is 215.8 billion US dollars, half of which is paid by the finances of ASEAN countries, and the insufficient part is made up by the AIIB, and the interest is not too high, 5%!"
Because of the owner's explanation, the construction of 50,000 kilometers of expressway in five years was left to Defeng Construction, a subsidiary of Wharf Holdings. The renovation and expansion of the Mawlamyine Port, Pontianak Port, Semarang Port and Jayapura Port were all handed over to Hyundai Cargo Group, a subsidiary of Wharf!"
These are things that have been set a long time ago, except for the construction of high-speed rail because Defeng Construction cannot meet the technical conditions, and must rely on state-owned enterprises, the rest of the projects that Wharf can swallow have fallen into the hands of Wang Zheng.
"Master, the Huaxia side has put forward the desire to jointly dig the 'Kra Canal'! What is your opinion...?"
"Kra Canal?"
As a native of China, he understands the urgency of the Chinese leaders to unlock Malacca, the choke point for controlling China's energy and trade.
"Yes, there is no problem! In addition, during the talks, you can appropriately disclose that you hope that Huaxia will set up a military base in the 'Medan Port'!" After thinking for a moment, Wang Zheng said seriously.
"A military base?"
"That's right. ASEAN's military power is now weakening. In order to avoid the Americans and Indians having superfluous ideas, it is necessary to let Huaxia come in and check and balance. Moreover, the three-way wrestling can also reduce the attention of the Americans and Indians on us. Otherwise, wouldn't it make the Americans stay too happy in Singapore?" Wang Zheng said coldly.
"Yes!"
"And. Economic development is indispensable for ASEAN to be truly integrated. Financial support is indispensable for economic development. And China is now the world's richest country. Therefore, when negotiating, you can use the 'Kra Canal' and 'military bases' as conditions to let Huaxia provide more low-interest loans and preferential policies!"
"Understood!"
Seeing Mesati nodding, Wang Zheng suddenly smiled bitterly.
"I'm a Chinese native, and I'm trying everything possible to calculate my country, and I'm really a bit of a traitor!"
Now he finally realized how true the saying 'the ass decides the head'. Compared with ASEAN and Dongying, which are destined to become their own 'self-reserved land' in the future, although China is the mother country, its importance has dropped significantly.
"Forget it, although I am more selfish, but the final result is to expand more living space for the Chinese nation, and indirectly expand the influence of Chinese civilization, which can also be said to have a clear conscience!"
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng shook his head, cleared the superfluous thoughts in his mind, and continued: "Has the South China Sea issue been solved?"
"A resolution has been largely formed. According to what the master said, sovereignty belongs to China, and we account for 40 percent of the joint development of resources! In exchange, ordinary ASEAN people entering China to work are exempt from visas. It is full of agricultural and sideline exhibits, minerals, timber, basic chemical raw materials, etc. ”
"The two sides will carry out educational cooperation, and the top 200 universities in China will open branch campuses in ASEAN countries. and provide 100,000 university study places every year. ASEAN countries offer Chinese language education from junior high schools, and Huaxia is responsible for providing and training certain teachers. ”
"Industrial cooperation, in the next five years, Huaxia will transfer at least 2,000 labor-intensive enterprises such as cotton spinning, footwear, industrial parts, papermaking, and clothing to ASEAN. ”
"Cultural cooperation...!"
Even when it came to the main story, Mesati spoke for nearly an hour. Perhaps it is because of this position that he pays more attention to everything in his 'one acre and three points of land'. Therefore, these political provisions, which usually seem to Wang Zheng to be of no interest, have been read one by one under Mesati's interpretation.
"The whole cooperation agreement is now only a rough intention. The remaining details will have to wait for detailed negotiations with the relevant departments of various countries and carry out certain refinements. However, it is conceivable that when these cooperation breaks out, it will inevitably cause an uproar in the international community. After all, this represents an almost complete reversal of ASEAN towards China. Neither the United States, nor India, nor Europe, in the context of geopolitics and their own hegemony, will see such a situation arise. They will certainly do their utmost to stir up reactionary forces within ASEAN, stir up storms and sabotage cooperation!"
Wang Zheng nodded knowingly.
"If you want to get benefits, of course, you have to pay some price. Moreover, the Americans are now dragged on by the two wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Then do you still have the guts to start a war against the whole of ASEAN? As for the conspiracy, hehe, what kind of conspiracy can evade the prying eyes of the 'neuronal mastermind'? Moreover, it is good that the opposition forces within the entire ASEAN can be uprooted. ”
After finishing with a cold expression, Wang Zheng's tone softened.
"Now the international political situation is at an inflection point when China is rising and the United States is retreating. Except for Pakistan, Huaxia has few friends around him who can be trusted. If ASEAN takes the initiative to lean in at this time, it will undoubtedly be a relief to China, which wants to replace the United States as the world's largest power. According to the logic of China, such a benchmark country will undoubtedly be given preferential treatment. Therefore, despite the criticism of the United States, the benefits of choosing a bet as soon as possible are much more than those of a two-faced wall-riding faction. ”
"From a geopolitical and economic point of view, it is true that choosing China is more advantageous than the United States! However, turmoil within ASEAN will hinder economic development, especially those poor people, once they are instigated, they will do anything, such as anti-~ China. ”
Hearing this, Wang Zheng's eyes instantly became cold.
"They're looking for death!"
"Master, if it is suppressed strongly, it will make the ASEAN regime blamed in the international community. A series of international collaborations can also be very passive. So, unless you have to, it's better not to kill more!"
Wang Zheng knew that there was nothing wrong with Mesati's words. No country in the world wants to deal with a government that is murderous and does not respect human rights. Moreover, once the United States and Europe seize the opportunity, I am afraid that they will carry out armed intervention in the face of justice. If this is the case, even Huaxia will not interfere too much.
