For example, in the past few days when Xu Teng arrived in New York for a visit, the Straits State suddenly drastically reduced port fees, attracted customers at a loss, and cracked down on the four new ports invested by the Huayin consortium in Malaysia. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The old port has the advantages of the old port.

Xingang's equipment and investment have just been put in place, and the room for price reduction will be lower.

The seizure of armored vehicles in Hong Kong some time ago was intended to be a reminder that the Taiwan Strait countries should not ignore the one-China principle and not continue to maintain military exchanges and cooperation with Taiwan.

Forget about eating a little bit of wisdom for the Straits State.

However, the countermeasure of the Taiwan Strait State is to send people to the mainland to talk about cooperation and friendship, and on the other hand, after a lapse of more than 10 years, deliberately invite Taiwan warships to visit the Taiwan Strait State, swearing to the international world that they will continue to ignore the one-China principle and show that they are also capable of engaging in a great power game.

At the same time, the Straits States took the initiative to send the largest contingent to visit Vietnam, strengthen investment and political and military cooperation with Vietnam, and advocate ASEAN to unite with China to negotiate the South China Sea issue, further demonstrating that they are BIG players in the ASEAN region.

What happened to the small country of projectiles?

As long as there is the support of the United States, the Straits States will dare to compete with China for the dominance of the political structure of ASEAN and East Asia.

In the 70s of the last century, the core purpose of ASEAN was the anti-China alliance.

In the game of big powers, China and the United States can cooperate, compete and confront each other, and small countries are purely embarrassed to play this game.

Xu Teng had no intention of intervening in this matter at all, and he was not interested in political matters, but the Straits State relied on Temasek's strength to show a series of one, two, and three moves to Huashi, and then played a fourth move against the Huayin Consortium, which is really a bit too much.

During this time, Xu Teng had to stay in New York to deal with affairs, and if the Straits State thought that he was busy dealing with the Sino-US diplomatic crisis and had no time to fight back, it would be really clever and mistaken by cleverness.

Xu Teng does have a lot of things, one is to coordinate President Derump's cabinet candidates behind the scenes, and the other is to deal with the counterfeit banknote scandal in India.

Huateng Property Group.

This is the third comprehensive investment group company born after the internal asset restructuring of the Huayin consortium, which is mainly composed of four subsidiaries: Huateng Land Company, Huateng Pioneer Park, Dazhong Capital and Starfish Decoration City, and is also the largest shareholder of B&Q in the UK.

Because less than a year after the reorganization, Huateng Group has not been able to complete the reform of the overall listing, just so Xu Teng simply stopped the overall listing plan and let Huateng Group invest 23 billion US dollars to acquire the port business of Wanbo Group.

The port business has really not been a good business in recent years.

Chen Anbang readily agreed to this offer.

Because it is an internal transaction of its first-class industrial group, we know each other well, so we don't need to waste time repeating the audit, and we can directly trade according to the asset report of the Group.

Huateng Group, like Temasek Holdings, is not a listed company as a whole, and as long as there is long-term support from the parent company, it can afford long-term losses.

Several port fees in the Straits State were reduced by 15% at the same time, and after Huateng Group took over these ports, the fees were reduced by 25%.

What about a loss of $3 billion a year?

Come on, hurt each other.

It seems that Xu Teng cares about this money very much, yes.

The Straits of the Oriental Neptune shipping company has gone bankrupt, is currently Maersk full acceptance, in the East Asian shipping market competition, Evergreen, Hanjin are also bankrupt, Maersk three choices, the choice of the Oriental Neptune, or the Straits of the Straits in Malacca in the world shipping transit center position.

At the suggestion of Huateng Company, the four major domestic shipping giants were reorganized into China HNA and China Merchants in 2015, and since then, with the assistance of the Huayin Consortium, they have successively launched the expansion trend of snake swallowing elephants, taking advantage of the sharp trough period of the international shipping industry, merging with CMA CGM, United Arab Steamship Company, and Hamburg Süd Shipping Company.

China HNA focuses on globalization and container layout, China-Europe trade and the Belt and Road Initiative, and China Merchants focuses on natural gas, oil transportation and China-North and South America trade routes, both of which are rapidly taking shape, and their business scale is among the world's top five shipping companies.

The 17 port businesses held by the Huayin Consortium around the world are all for the two international shipping giants, including 5 ports in Malaysia, which can fully meet the transit business needs of the two shipping giants in Malacca.

Fertilizer and water do not leave outsiders in the field.

Even if Xu Teng loses money, he mainly loses money to the central enterprises of the motherland, and the strait state pays Maersk and Mitsui, which is another matter.

After this news was announced, it was not known whether Li Xinglong, the premier of the Straits State, who was planning to visit the United States to seek support, was going to break out in a cold sweat or be so angry that he would continue to plan a new revenge and wrestling.

There are no absolute friends between countries, and even if China and the United States will strengthen G2 cooperation in a more obvious way under the impetus of Xu Teng, the battle between major powers will continue to unfold.

Li Xinglong, the head of state of the Taiwan Strait State, has repeatedly declared that China and New Zealand are friends, and China is even more enthusiastic about saying that it is an old friend, but when it is time to start, one is more ruthless than the other, and it depends on who is more ruthless and who can strangle the other party's life.

As long as the Taiwan Strait States continue to rush to the front line to contain China, cause trouble in this way, and deliberately sow discord between China and ASEAN, China must take the Taiwan Strait States out alone and fight them to the death.

The largest semiconductor company in the Straits State is GF, and Xu Teng has basically relocated its production capacity to Huateng Industrial Park in Guanzhou and Selangor, Malaysia, and the next generation of 5nm/3nm process process capacity is in Seattle, USA.

Malaysia's Port Klang and Huangjing Port's two major Yongtai chemical projects have long been life-and-death with the Straits State.

By assisting in the construction of Malaysia's Kuala Lumpur Financial City and the strangulation of the port business, Xu Teng was basically able to explode the projectiles of the Straits State.

Doing business, to achieve Xu Teng's realm, the gains and losses in a certain field are not very important in themselves, he tears it up like this, and it is no wonder that the GDP of the Straits State will not continue to regress a few points this year.

If you have a kind of fighting, you have to have a kind of loss, don't lose it.

Xu Teng's planning for the Straits State did not start in the past few years, since 2005, when the scale of the Yinmei plan, it has been in the layout, from the cultivation of talents to the industrial layout, every step has a plan.

In particular, the planning of the Kuala Lumpur Financial City is the sword that pierces the heart of the Straits State.

Malaysia and the Bank of China Consortium in the planning of the Kuala Lumpur Financial City, the goal is very clear, that is, to become a regional financial center in Southeast Asia, the Kuala Lumpur Financial City and the Thai stock market, China's Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong three major stock markets have also established a cooperative relationship for coordinated development.

So far, the countries of the Taiwan Strait are not countries along the Belt and Road, and they will not join it, and then they want to expand financial cooperation with China, because China and New Zealand are "friends".

Still at the suggestion of the Huateng International Research Center and the Asia-Pacific Economic Research Institute, China's response is to strengthen financial cooperation with Malaysia and Thailand, and promote the cooperation between Malaysia, Thailand, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

A few days later.

After the meeting between the heads of state of the United States and Britain, Prime Minister Lee Heung-tsai of the Straits State finally followed suit and visited the United States, becoming the first Asian head of state to visit the United States after President de Rump officially took office.

The prime minister of the Straits State completely did not expect that after the secret talks between the White House and Xu Teng's agent, he decided to arrange this meeting and put on a posture of strengthening cooperation with the Straits State and continuing to hold China hostage.

In fact, President de Lamp did not want to meet him, because the main goal of the other party's visit to the United States was to lobby the United States to reconsider the TPP issue, but it would also be very good to be able to use the Straits States to increase a little bargaining chip before formal negotiations with China.

Xu Teng can influence the president, but it is impossible to control the other party, let alone try to control it, which is a fact.

Even under the influence of Xu Teng, China and the United States can adopt a more cooperative G2 model, and in the end, who will score more points and who will score less, who will contribute more and who will contribute less, the battle will definitely be fierce.

For such a fight, Xu Teng will not ask, this is the business of the two governments, who can hold it, who can negotiate a better price, that is a matter of ability.

After the premier of the Straits State arrived in the United States and met with the president, he again requested Xu Teng to pay a visit through an intermediary.

After all, it is the prime minister of a country, and if you don't see it again, this is the third refusal.

Xu Teng decided to meet once, although he didn't know what he could talk about after the meeting.

The two sides debated whether to meet publicly or privately.

Of course, Xu Teng hopes to meet privately, and the other party wants to meet publicly, the reason is that it is arranged in the official itinerary and political achievements of the foreign visit, to put it bluntly, the other party also knows that seeing it means not seeing it, but it is just a show for the domestic people and the ASEAN countries, which proves that the strait countries are playing well in the big power game, playing well, and they are very popular and have a huge influence.

Politics is actually such a thing, and it is not very shameful.

Because this intermediary is the ambassador to the United States.

Xu Teng finally agreed, held a public meeting, and invited the other party to the Cloud Club on the 75th floor of the Chrysler Building for half an hour.

February 7th.

In the morning, Xu Teng, together with Ashley Kuner, Miss Elizabeth Holmes, Wellence Wotander, and White House staff member Deli Yang, discussed the last seven lists of the cabinet in the office and finalized the names of two cabinet ministers, one black American, and one Latino American.

At this point, all that remains is an unimportant cabinet, and these ministerial seats are basically balanced by factions within the Republican Party and balanced on racial issues.

The final question to consider is whether these people can get through the Cabinet, since it has been two weeks since the president was inaugurated, and with the Secretary of State, only seven Cabinet ministers have been appointed to Congress for a vote.

That's a bit too slow.

This is what AIG Group, Miss Elizabeth Holmes, and the Bush family have tried their best to reconcile behind the scenes, otherwise it will only be worse.

This President Drape is not easy.

Xu Teng personally arrived in New York, coordinated the six major media groups for each other behind the scenes, and met with the chairmen of these groups, and all he could do for the time being was to try his best to reduce direct conflict, because now it is politically correct in the United States to criticize President Derum, and even if the major consortia want to control behind the scenes, they need a little time and buffer.

Talking about the list of the last 7 cabinets, Xu Teng feels really laborious, this broken president is not as good as him in the United States, I really don't know how to mix!

The five people here are all their own people, so there is nothing to talk about.

Ashley Kooner has the title of senior presidential adviser in the White House, Young, director of economic policy in the White House, and the current White House chief of staff, former Republican National Committee Chairman Pritz, is arranged by Miss Elizabeth Holmes.

The strength of this Pritz is that he is staunchly pro-Taiwanese and anti-Chinese, but his campaign in the Senate for the past decade has been largely financed by a number of super PACs chaired by Miss Elizabeth Holmes.

Life is like a play.

Politicians don't just make a living from acting.

At present, within the White House, the anti-China, the United China, and the United Russia are the three major factions, and Steen-Banlun sensed that something was wrong and quickly turned to the United China faction, which greatly reduced the power of the anti-China and United Russia faction, but the struggle for power and profit was still very fierce, and everyone was fighting for positions.

Xu Teng firmly holds the important positions of White House chief of staff, senior adviser, economic policy adviser and director of the Council of Economic Advisers, science and technology policy adviser and director of the Science and Technology Advisory Council, assistant chief of staff, and White House adviser and director of public relations.

National Security Assistant, Homeland Security Assistant, these fields, this is not their field of expertise, and there is no need to fight for it.

Recently, because of the ban on Muslims, there has been a lot of trouble inside and outside the White House, which has made the struggle for power even more intense.

For Xu Teng's faction, they can hang high, never participate in the ban incident, and let others tear each other apart and pass the buck to each other for that bit of power.

During this time, the president has to make a very important speech to Congress, followed by the tax cut bill and the health care reform bill, choose one of the two, and seize the time to launch a real reform.

Whether to push the tax cut bill first or push the health care reform bill first, Miss Elizabeth Holmes and Young Deli have a big disagreement, Xu Teng and Ashley Kuna, Wellence Wotander do not speak, just listen to the two argue.

In these two matters, small changes are not easy to pass, and major changes are even more difficult to pass.

The tax cut bill is to reduce government revenue, the health care reform bill is to shrink government spending, the main opinion of the Republican Party is to completely abolish Obma health insurance and minimize health care spending, and the Democratic Party will fight to the end and not allow it to be repealed.

The problem is that Obma health insurance itself is a big bomb, and there will be a number of state financial bankruptcies and explosions in the shortest three years, and then tax cuts, and if it is not done well, it will be a big deal next year.

This question is definitely not happy for Xu Teng.

Because Boan Medical Group, a subsidiary of the Huayin AIG consortium, is already the largest profitable medical chain in the United States, and the scale of its pharmaceutical industry companies is not low, accounting for 10 of the world's top 50 pharmaceutical companies alone, and the world's second largest medical device company "Boston Life Technology Company" is also under the Huayin AIG consortium.

If the U.S. government wants to shrink medical insurance subsidies, of course Xu Teng is not happy, all he makes less money is money, and he makes tens of billions of dollars less a year, can he be happy?

"Let's introduce the tax cut bill first, and then the health care reform bill will be considered for a while. Xu Teng made a decision, although the Republican Party strongly demanded that the Obma health care bill be repealed first, but this matter was too damaging for Derump and Xu Teng.

The medical and pharmaceutical industry accounts for a large proportion of President Dramp's campaign funders, and AIG Group has come forward to guarantee this behind the scenes, promising all parties that if Connor Drape wins, even if the Obma health insurance is abolished, it will come up with a plan that will not be bad.

"We can push the health care reform bill first and get it vetoed by both parties, and then we can shift the blame to the Democrats and the Republican factions that don't work with us when the state finances go bankrupt next year." Ashley Kuner came up with a new idea, adding, "There will be no loss to us, not even for three years, and it will not affect our profitability at all." ”

Everyone doesn't speak, because this trick is still very dangerous, and if some Republican and Democratic lawmakers join forces to get the bill passed, what will they do to make billions of dollars less every year?

"We can give it a try, just in time to buy time for the tax cut bill, and by the way, teach the Republican Tea Party faction a lesson and make it clear that if we don't work with us, we will wait for nothing. Xu Teng decided to take a risk for the sake of the profits of the pharmaceutical industry and long-term tax cuts.

All morning.

Xu Teng spent four hours discussing the cabinet selection of the DeLamp administration and the strategy of the White House, and in the afternoon, he continued to welcome Prime Minister Lee Heung-loi of the Straits State at the Chrysler Building.

As soon as the two met and talked for five minutes, Xu Teng regretted meeting with the prime minister, which was a complete waste of time and feelings, and actually taught him to consider many enterprises, shareholders and market order, and not to make loss-making investments.

What Li Xinglong means is that your investment in Malaysia has hurt the Straits State, and it will not do you any good, and it is too late to stop it.

"Your Excellency, are you really sure that you are qualified to teach me how to do business?" Xu Teng still sat in the morning position, facing the floor-to-ceiling window, but replaced the couch on the right-hand side of his side with a single sofa and provided it to Premier Li Xinglong.

Compared with the DeLamp family's mansion in New York, Xu Teng's decoration style in the Chrysler Building Cloud Club is much more modern and simple, and it is also very simple, because Xu Teng usually arrives in New York in autumn and winter, and the decoration is mainly warm red, dark maroon, and burgundy.

In this warm-toned cloud club and sofa café, the atmosphere at this moment is gloomy and confrontational.

Although they are all Chinese, Xu Teng can only talk to each other in English, which is also something that the diplomatic department of the Straits State has emphasized several times in advance, and the official conversation is only in English.

"I know that the chairman of the board of directors is the most prominent businessman in the world, but I am emphasizing a non-zero-sum thinking, a win-win thinking, and I believe this is also a new thinking that has been repeatedly emphasized by the top level of your government. Li Xinglong tried his best to stabilize the rhythm of the conversation, he couldn't follow Xu Teng's rhythm to tear up, his goal was to persuade Xu Teng to stop this kind of competition that hurt each other.

"Your Excellency, I have a very sincere suggestion to you, since you dare to provoke disputes and fights, you must afford to lose. At the same time, remember that wars, once provoked, will not end easily. Xu Teng's meaning is very clear, don't expect him to pause, it will be a long-term mutual injury.

The Huayin Consortium owns five ports in Malaysia, namely Port Klang Phase 2, Port Klang Phase III, Huangjing Port, Tanjung Port II and Penang Port, Port Klang is close to Kuala Lumpur, Tanjung Pelepas Port is close to Straits State, and Huangjing Port is located in the middle of the two Malacca.

These three major port groups have a very direct competitive pressure on the new and old port groups of the strait countries. Malaysia

In the past, it took only two working days to apply for an exemption in the Straits State, but at least a week in Malaysia, because the vast majority of public officials in Malaysia are Malays, and the efficiency and level of business are very low.

There are many other problems.

In response to various problems in the field of soft power, the Huayin Consortium took full responsibility for the operation, and adopted methods such as increasing the number of Chinese public employees, outsourcing management and approval, etc., to compress the soft power competition gap of Singapore-Malaysia Port to the extreme.

At the same time, relying on the advantages of the Huayin Consortium in the fields of big data, cloud computing and intelligent management, the global port business of the Huayin Consortium, domestic ports and domestic shipping companies is integrated into a big data system to greatly enhance operational efficiency.

These various efforts will eventually be reflected in market share.

At present, in the ranking of the world's top ten ports, the total container throughput of the Straits Port has fallen to 23 million ETU, ranking third, second to the two major ports of Shanghai and Shenzhen, while Port Klang has increased to 17 million ETU, and Tanjong Port has increased to 14 million ETU, ranking 8th and 11th respectively.

According to the recent competitive situation, Xu Teng estimates that the strait port is likely to fall directly below 20 million ETU this year.

This is the reason why the country of the strait is anxious, a small country, there is a kind of bet, but there is no kind of loss.

"Your Excellency, I have no intention of having any dispute with you at all, in fact, as my country has always stated, we and China are very friendly and cooperative countries, and we also warmly welcome your country and your company's investment ......!" Premier Li Xinglong did not finish his words, and was interrupted by Xu Teng.

"I didn't see it at all, where is it friendly, when did you really welcome my investment?" Xu Teng looked surprised.

"The friendship between China and Singapore is long-standing, and sometimes, we do have differences, but this difference will not affect the friendship between the two countries, as I reached at the government level when I visited your country last year, and we need to dilute the differences and strengthen cooperation. "After all, Premier Li Xinglong is the head of a country, so he can only negotiate with Xu Teng patiently, after all, he has a request for Xu Teng.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, what is a wrestling, there is cooperation, there is confrontation, this is wrestling. Big countries can fight because they can win and they can afford to lose, and small countries better not choose to fight big countries because you can't afford to lose. Xu Teng took a sip of tea, briefly said his opinion, and negotiated slowly with the ASEAN leader, lest others say that he was too proud.

"I think that His Excellency the President's view is too one-sided, and in the modern world, every person and every country has the right to speak freely and formulate policies freely based on their own views. As far as the big countries are concerned, they should not resort to gross interference and suppression just because they have adopted policies that are not in the interests of the big countries; this is a very uncivilized act and is not in keeping with the development trend and rules of the international world. Li Xinglong preached to Xu Teng seriously, and he was convinced of such a statement.

"Mr. Prime Minister, I can't agree with your point of view, my company, the Huayin AIG consortium, mainly comes from the capital of the two major countries of China and the United States. This means that we have no responsibility to defend the interests of small countries. ”

"You can say it beautifully, but my point of view remains the same, since there is a kind of fighting in your country, there must be a kind of loss. Xu Teng was a little tired of talking nonsense with this kind of show-like politician, so he simply made his point of view clearer, "I am a businessman, my judgment of the situation is very simple, you also want to play a big country game with this bit of national strength, and you will inevitably lose, since you will definitely lose, why can't I take the opportunity to let you lose more and then make a profit from it?"

"At its peak, your country's GDP per capita reached $58,000, which is a good number, but it's a very illusory figure, because on the basis of the trade balance and the surplus, you can have as much per capita GDP as you want. ”

"90% of your country's current talent demand in finance and emerging industries, and the absorption of rich resources, come from China. Most of the talent you have absorbed in China is what I want, and I have always been a very small part of your country's economy. ”

"You're playing a game you can't afford to lose, and I'm sure you're going to lose. So, my business is to puncture your trade balance, the faster you fall, the faster you lose, and eventually one day, when your GDP falls by 1/3, or even 1/2, there will inevitably be economic and political upheaval, and that is the time when I can invest in you. ”

Xu Teng directly explained to the other party the rules and gameplay of this game, "I will limit your economic growth, curb your ability to absorb Chinese talents and rich, and further worsen your economic situation." Yes, I would lose my earnings too, but this loss of a billion dollars a year is completely affordable for me. You're very old, you're not in good health, and I'm still very young, and I can play this game for ten years, or even twenty years. I can assure you that I will make a profit. I will definitely be able to crush your local businesses, and when my investment in your country takes the lead, when your new government gives up the fight and strengthens cooperation across the board, your economy will grow again, and this is the return on my investment. ”

"You took the initiative to choose to fight, you created this chess game, you created this business, when I have invested tens of billions of dollars to bet that you will lose, you want me to stop, there is no such good thing in the world. ”

"Your Excellency, I have never been a small businessman, my company has total assets of $5.7 trillion, I have a capital of $2.1 trillion, and in a chess game like this, I have more than a dozen around the world. ”

"So, my advice to you is very clear, this is your own choice of wrestling, your own choice of chess!" Xu Teng finally fully expressed his attitude and told the prime minister, don't cry, stand up and continue to make trouble, "I am not the one who makes your country's economic growth rate regress, you are the one who leads your government and country to jump into this game that must be lost, since you lead your people to jump on the gambling table together, you must afford to lose, since you have a kind of betting, you must have a kind of loss, don't be a person who dares to win but dare not lose." The message I can tell you is very simple, since I have invested so much, I will not stop at all until I have doubled my profits, no one can make me stop, you can't do it, neither can the Chinese government and the White House, this is capitalism, you can't stop me from making huge profits. ”

Now it's finally embarrassing.

Premier Lee Heung-long did not know what to say at all, and it was indeed a very awkward meeting, and it was not at all what he expected.

After a few minutes of silence, Xu Teng took the initiative to break the silence.

"That's why, I never wanted to meet with you, let alone have a public meeting, you gave me a knife, turned around and asked me to kill you, and when I stabbed you, you said I was a murderer, it's not fair. Xu Teng's reasoning is as simple and straightforward as that, he put the teacup in his hand back on the table, and was about to get up to end the meeting, thinking about it, "We can still face reporters in a very friendly way and end this meeting, which is also very beneficial to you, for me, I don't care." I am a vulture of the international capital markets, a notorious scavenger, and I am used to being blamed. ”

"I must tell you that these business plans of yours will not be successful. Li Xinglong still had to persevere, got up and shook hands with Xu Teng, but he couldn't laugh anymore, and he knew very well whether Xu Teng's business plan could succeed.

Xu Teng's plan is very clear, so that his party will be completely overthrown, and in order to achieve this goal, he will not be stingy to continue to invest tens of billions of dollars.
