Chapter 448: Life Is Such a
Neurotics never feel that they are sick, and the EU is the same, it has never thought about its own problems at all, and every country may think the same way, even if there is a problem with the global political environment and economic situation, it must be someone else's fault.

In addition to the global economy in jeopardy, the EU debt crisis and high financial risks, the EU actually intends to use this opportunity to lead a new round of summit negotiations, take advantage of the home advantage, so that the final G20 negotiation results are beneficial to the EU, and at the same time can demonstrate the EU's leadership and stabilize the people's hearts when there is a wave of anti-globalization in Europe and the United States.
It is precisely because of such factors that the EU insisted on inviting Xu Teng to come to the meeting, and did not hesitate to use diplomatic means.
As a result, the EU did not expect Xu Teng to be such a willful Xu Teng.
Xu Teng's speech on the second day of the G20 summit in Brussels, whether it was good or not, right or not, was tantamount to a resounding slap in the face to the EU bureaucracy, but fortunately this time it was a closed-door meeting.
If Xu Teng's off-script speech is public and let the media spread it, the EU will really lose face.
The senior bureaucrats of the Council of the European Union were very angry, and although they endured their evil anger at that time, they held a special meeting in the evening to meet with the leaders of Britain, France and Germany, and demanded that the Huayin consortium be countered and formally restrict the investment of the Huayin consortium in Europe.
This moment proved that these high-ranking bureaucrats in the European Union really took themselves too seriously and regarded themselves as the emperors of the whole of Europe, and as a result, they were unanimously rejected by the leaders and representatives of the main countries of Britain, France, Germany and Italy.
Italy also blames the European Union for blocking the deal for the Bank of China consortium to control ING, because many Italian banks have a large number of bad debts and bankruptcies, and are now supported by UniCredit Italia, a subsidiary of the British group UniCredit.
The predecessor of UniCredit Bank USPA was formed in 1998 by the merger of nine regional banks in Italy, the oldest of which was Rollo Bank, which was founded in 1473, merged with Yubao Bank (UniCredit Bank HVB), Germany's second largest commercial bank, in 2005, and merged with the Swiss Captalia Banking Group again during the subprime mortgage crisis in 2007.
It is currently the fourth largest banking group in Europe and the most important financial pillar in Italy, and is wholly owned by the British Intercredit Group, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the British Intertrust Group.
Italy's financial sector is already in a precarious position, the worst situation in Europe as a whole, and now the only ones left to take over are the British Intertrust Group, as well as the The-ShunFamliy and Huayin AIG consortium behind the Forxin Group.
The problem is not that Italy does not want to sell, but that Intertrust and the Huayin consortium have no intention of expanding their business in Italy, and that they acquired USPA more because of the bank's extensive business in Germany, Switzerland, Central and Eastern Europe, and Russia.
No one knows exactly how much capital The-ShunFamliy has.
Don't look at the precarious situation of the Italian financial industry now, but as long as the USPA, the pillar of Italy's banking industry and the pillar of the insurance industry, Generali, does not fall, it will basically not die too ugly, the former belongs to The-ShunFamliy, and the latter also belongs to The-ShunFamliy, but under the AIG International Financial Group.
Italy's current dependence on the Bank of China consortium and The-ShunFamliy's dependence on The-ShunFamliy can be described in one word, that is, "beyond measure", to put it mildly, Italy is now relying on The-ShunFamliy to save its life.
The EU said that it would "counter" the Huayin consortium, even if the scope of the countermeasures was narrowed to Huateng + Galaxy's small Huayin, Italy could only say, have you thought about my feelings?
Italy is not happy, Britain, France, Germany and the Netherlands are not happy, only you EU and Huayin Consortium have no direct cooperation, these old Europe, the main member states of the European Union and the cooperation of Huayin Consortium are still very happy, the only one who is slightly unhappy is Germany, but I dare not say that I will find a reason to threaten Huayin Consortium and retaliate against Huayin Consortium.
The most unhappy is the United Kingdom.
The new investment of the Huayin consortium is at least US$400 billion a year, even if only 20% is used for infrastructure, only 30% is used for scientific research, and even if only 10% is given to the UK, the scale is not small.
The headquarters of the Huayin AIG consortium in Europe is located in the United Kingdom, in the City of London, and it is absolutely no problem for the United Kingdom to strive for $40 billion in new investment every year.
The international economic environment in 2014 is so bad, the GDP of the world's major developed countries are declining, only the United Kingdom and the United States maintain positive growth of about 1%.
Although Britain usually complains that the entire United Kingdom is going to be hollowed out by The-ShunFamliy, in this period of global economic depression, there is a "British" like The-ShunFamliy, is Britain a neurotic?
Why did Xu Teng dare to fire at the EU, dare to criticize the EU for shirking responsibility and engaging in exclusive investment protection in front of global leaders?
Because the relationship between the Huayin consortium in the major member states of the European Union is deep-rooted, to put it mildly, the relationship between The-ShunFamliy and the current government of Britain and France is stronger than that between China and Britain and between China and France.
The situation is stronger than the people!
The-ShunFamliy and his Huayin AIG consortium are already of this scale, and you have to accept it if you are not convinced, the European Union and the United States did not counteract at the beginning, and vigorously advocated that the Huayin Consortium is a high-quality Chinese private capital consortium.
Now it's so big that I can't do it, I'm panicked, I'm messed up, and I want to counteract, how can I counter it?
For the leaders of Britain, France, Germany and Italy, even if they want to take countermeasures, the EU must also look at the time, this time period, do you counter the Huayin AIG consortium, are you looking for death, or do you want to die?
The EU has no worries about the approval rating, but if the heads of government of the member countries and their respective ruling parties have the problem of approval ratings, the financial industry is about to collapse, and all of them are supported by the government's liquidity, the economy is so poor, and the unemployment rate is so high, what do you want?
That night, an emergency meeting was held within the European Union, and the matter of the Huayin consortium was arguing.
Xu Teng's criticism at the daytime meeting was indeed rude and irresponsible, especially the criticism at the political level was biased, but he had a big black pot on his back during this time, and was regarded as the culprit of the global economic crisis in 2014 and the "Chinese vulture", he was very angry, in addition to the European Union, Japan, and Australia, other heads of state can still understand.
In particular, the leaders of these major European powers, such as Kasang, Xiaosa, and Aunt Mo, have close personal relations with Xu Teng, and their respective cabinets, the center-right conservatives in Britain and France, and the center-left conservative coalition parties in Germany that they represent each other, are also inextricably linked with The-ShunFamliy.
Xu Teng's attack at the economic level is really not wrong, but it is too direct and a bit ugly, which hurts the glass hearts of the senior EU bureaucrats.
At present, there are two main core problems in the global economy: First, the economic competitiveness of the major developed countries is declining; second, the problem of the bundling of the euro cannot reflect the economic competitiveness gap among the EU member states, and cannot balance this gap in economic competitiveness, resulting in many difficulties in the EU's economic reform and the fact that it is impossible to advance it at all.
There is no way to solve these two problems: first, Europe and the United States will expand skilled immigration, second, the developed countries of Europe, the United States and Japan will drastically reduce welfare, and third, the European Union will remain and abandon the euro.
The problem now is that the EU cannot do any of these three solutions.
Xu Teng said these things, the EU itself is not unclear, but no one dares to say it, everyone can only pretend that there is no problem with the EU economy, and if there is a problem, it is someone else's fault.
In the past, the EU shifted the blame to China, and China was difficult to distinguish, but now, the EU continues to shift the blame to the Bank of China consortium, and Xu Teng's new nickname "Chinese vulture" was first shouted by senior EU officials and the German foreign minister.
Can Xu Teng not be angry?
Xu Teng's attitude is also very clear, since you hate me so much, okay, I don't want any of your rotten goods, you can hold it in your hands and wait for death.
He is really ready to solve the economic problems of Russia and Brazil on his own, continue to strengthen international competition, and let Europe wait to die.
As for the issue of the trade balance between China and Europe, don't come to him in the future.
There is still a quarrel within the EU.
Xu Teng has already acted, and since he has offended the host European Union, he is not guilty of continuing to participate in the official agenda of the G20 and meeting directly with Russian President Vladimir, who has been left out in the cold.
Both are scapegoats from the EU.
Vladimir is to blame for the chaos and disorder of international politics and military, and Xu Teng is to blame for the chaos and disorder of the international economy and finance, the former is an evil dictator, and the latter is a filthy Chinese vulture.
The two could only huddle together in the cold and sign a framework agreement for a larger investment cooperation.
Xu Teng officially announced the $140 billion investment and loan agreement originally promised to Russia, plus $60 billion, to make up a whole number, from 2015 to 2020, invest $200 billion in Russia in five years.
The annual new investment scale of the Huayin AIG consortium is 400 billion US dollars, and Russia will make an appointment for 10% first, and 10% per year for five consecutive years.
Xu Teng is not in a hurry to meet with the new president of Brazil for the time being, and arranges for the bilateral team to continue talks, and strive to reach an agreed investment cooperation framework agreement before the end of the G20 summit.
On the basis of Vale's current market capitalization, he can buy it at a premium of 50%, and in addition provide financing for Baosteel and Wuhan Iron and Steel Group, and officially acquire Brazil's second-largest iron ore giant, MBR, United Mining Company of Brazil.
Xu Teng also does not go to the EU headquarters at the G20 venue, and has been working at the Park Hyatt Warwick Hotel on Brussels Square for the past two days, which is also a benefit of the high-tech group, as long as there is a network and satellite communication system, he can work anywhere at any time to handle all the work of the Huayin AIG consortium.
The EU held its G20 summit there.
Xu Teng also found time to either stay at the hotel where he was staying, or asked the Belgian government and royal family to provide a place to meet with the leaders of various countries, and the leaders of Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Belgium all met once.
Although he has just slammed the European Union and has no intention of continuing to expand investment in Europe, many of his previous promises will remain unchanged, promising to continue to assist Italy and the Netherlands in maintaining the stability of their financial order.
Hua Xia Bank Group's deal to take a stake in ING Bank remains unchanged.
As for Italy, Xu Teng also promised to provide sufficient guarantees for UniCredit.
Xu Teng spoke with strength.
His $200 billion investment in Russia basically directly announced the bankruptcy of the EU's plan to sanction Russia, and if it is not good, the Russian economy and industry will be healthier and stronger in 2020.
Although all parties know that Russia has been borrowing money from the Huayin AIG consortium to support the situation, this investment plan has always existed, and many projects have been launched for half a year, but don't say it.
You name it, and the whole world knows that the EU's economic sanctions against Russia are just a piece of waste paper, and this face crackles.
The White House did not want to say anything, and now it must be said, that the EU is neurotic.
Europe and the United States have joined forces to impose economic sanctions on countries of Russia's level, and economic hard killing is only part of the role, and the key is to play a political deterrent effect and kill the chicken to show the monkey.
Well, now there's also a JiBa deterrent effect.
Xu Teng had just signed an investment framework agreement with President Vladimir during the day, and in the evening, the White House sent Jacob Finance Minister to the Park Hyatt Hotel in Place Brussels to lobby, and the agreement was signed to minimize funds for the time being, after all, Xu Teng promised to invest $200 billion in five years, and then invest in the last three years.
Xu Teng's rhetoric basically remains the same, he only adds to the governments, if you welcome me, I will add a little more, if you don't welcome me, I will add a little less.
The next day, Ka Xiang also came, also with a secret order from the White House, and actively lobbied Xu Teng not to do this, you have money, you are capricious, you want to slap the EU in the face, it's okay, you can beat it if you want, just ask if you can beat it.
Xu Teng's speech at the G20 summit was indeed a bit capricious and irresponsible, and he did not take into account the face of the host, which made the host very angry, but after the emergency negotiations between countries in the past few days, the effect is still there.
After all, his speech has weight, and if he is a villain in front of him, China and the United States can be good people, and use his speech to force the EU and make the EU completely lose its host advantage.
On April 27, 2015, at the end of the summit, a new G20 government joint declaration was issued, requiring G20 countries to effectively limit and control their debts, strengthen structural reforms, strengthen the integration of the international financial industry, curb trade protectionism, curb bubble investment, and actively guide investment in science and technology, real and infrastructure.
To put it bluntly.
Everyone supervises each other, and no one is allowed to rely on printing money to solve the problem, otherwise there will be a new financial crisis, and the biggest problem now is that we have printed too much money, international capital is flooded, the global economy is in a depression, there is no suitable investment market at all, and a new investment bubble may be set off at any time.
As for the structural decline in economic competitiveness within the EU and the problem of the euro, forget it, Europe itself does not want to solve it, who will bother?
The current depreciation of the euro cannot actually balance the decline in the economic competitiveness of Italy, France, and Spain, and at the same time greatly enhance Germany's economic competitiveness and make Germany's trade surplus continue to expand.
Unless the euro is abandoned, there will be no solution to this problem, and countries will not pursue it.
However, the European financial sector must accelerate consolidation.
Before the end of the summit, at the insistence of the Chinese delegation, the EU promised to pass the two transactions of the acquisition of ABB by the Central Control Group and the holding of ING Bank by Huaxia Financial Group as soon as possible in a fast-track manner.
On the other hand, Xu Teng has finally reached an agreement with the Brazilian side, promising to invest 72 billion US dollars in Brazil over three years before 2018 to acquire a 57% controlling stake in Vale and a 25% development right in Brazil's pre-salt oil area.
Pre-salt oil and gas is a hot spot for the development of deepwater oil and gas resources in recent years, mainly distributed in the Gulf of Mexico Basin, West African Coastal Basin, Congo Basin, Gabon Basin, Central Asian Caspian Basin, and the most powerful basin in the southeast sea of Brazil in recent years.
Because in the competition for onshore oil areas, FMG Group, a subsidiary of Huayin Consortium, has been in a weak position for a long time, so it can only cooperate with CNOOC to tackle deepwater pre-salt oil and gas exploitation technology, and cooperate with ConocoPhillips to tackle shale oil and gas exploitation technology, so as to find a place in the gap between the major giants in the international oil market.
With the acquisition of BP and ExxonMobil's deep-sea oil field business and technical teams, FMG Group is now one of the world's top deepwater pre-salt oil and gas companies.
Although the extraction of deepwater pre-salt oil and gas is expensive and technically difficult, it is also one of the only two strong weapons of FMG Group, and it must continue to expand in this aspect in order to maintain its position in the international oil market.
Brazil has proven total reserves of 27 billion barrels of pre-salt oil, and it is expected that there may be at least 40% of the recoverable reserves in the long term.
On the other hand, Brazil does not have this kind of technology, and the cooperation with European and American oil giants is also very difficult, mainly because the Brazilian government is asking too high prices, and Petrobras itself is corrupt.
Xu Teng's choice is very simple, do not invest in Petrobras, do not cause trouble, exchange exploitation technology and capital for oil and gas fields, get 1/4 of the existing oil and gas area, and continue to cooperate with Petrobras in the future, still only 1/4 of the oil and gas plate.
Now that oil prices are so low, it is not cost-effective to exploit deepwater pre-salt oil and gas, but as long as the price of oil returns to more than $50 per barrel, the profit is still considerable, and the quality of Brazil's deep-water pre-salt oil is very good.
After the team of Huateng Company negotiated with the Brazilian cabinet bureaucrats, Xu Teng met with the newly appointed Brazilian President Marcela at the Park Hyatt Brussels Plaza Hotel where he stayed, and then held a press conference together, saying some good and obedient words, declaring that he was optimistic about the long-term benefits of the Brazilian economy and would definitely develop to a higher level, and by the way, he talked about the plan for Brazil's economic reform.
He put forward four suggestions to Brazil, first of all, we must get rid of the short-sightedness and the mentality of quick success in the past, the government would rather increase the resource tax, but also try not to use the state-owned enterprises to operate the national resource assets, because the national conditions are different, Brazil has tried for so many years, and if it can't do this, it must have the courage to admit and reform.
Second, we should not distribute welfare benefits indiscriminately, and we must resolutely use funds for infrastructure construction, education, and social security, so that all young people can receive basic compulsory education.
Third, maintain exchange rate stability.
Finally, don't rush and have the patience to spend 20 years building the country.
Xu Teng is just talking, because Brazil can't do any of these 4 points.
Not long after the press conference, Qiu Qiu, the leader of the Development Committee who was visiting Belgium with the delegation, hurriedly arrived, and this kind of leader heard the news at noon and knew that the Huayin Consortium had solved the iron ore problem.
Don't look at the current global iron ore price is very low, in the next ten years, China's steel production capacity is unlikely to be less than 800 million tons, although the domestic iron ore reserves are large, the quality is too large, the demand for overseas iron ore can not be low.
This means that as long as the world's three iron ore giants remain consistent, they can still bleed on China at any time.
The Huayin consortium has now re-established itself as the largest shareholder of Rio Tinto, with a low stake of only 9%, selling high and buying low, repeatedly manipulating it three times, and making a lot of money from it.
The Belgian FMG Group, a subsidiary of the Huayin consortium and the parent company of Fortis, Australia's third largest iron ore supplier, has also acquired the assets of Russian Metallurgical Investment and Eurasia Holdings in negotiations with Russia, and this time it will hold Vale, which is to firmly consolidate the position of the world's largest iron ore supplier.
Taking 10,000 steps back, even if FMG Group maintains a high-price strategy, it is still fertile and does not leave outsiders to work, and it can also play a role in controlling domestic steel production capacity, killing two birds with one stone.
Leader Qiu was very happy and excited, and could only say that if he wanted to do great things, he still had to rely on the big operation of an international capital consortium like Huayin AIG.
This leader came very coincidentally and calculated the time.
As soon as Xu Teng hosted a banquet at the hotel to entertain President Marcela and his wife and key cabinet officials, shortly after the dinner ended, he was calling his wife and children who were in China, and Leader Qiu rushed to the hotel.
Huateng Company was very familiar with this leader, and did not stop him, and sent a voice message to Xu Teng in advance, and asked the other party to go straight to Xu Teng's office on the 5th floor of the hotel.
When Xu Teng saw Leader Qiu, he was still on the phone, raised his hand and motioned for the other party to sit down first, and continued to chat with Xia Li for a few minutes before hanging up the phone.
The waiter has already made the tea.
Xu Teng picked up a cup in the tea tray, didn't rush to taste it, just sat in the corner of the desk and asked the other party, "The leader is in such a hurry, and he doesn't say hello in advance, is there any instruction?"
"First of all, congratulations on getting your wish and getting a controlling stake in Vale. In the past two years, from Russia to Australia, to Kazakhstan, to Chile and Brazil, this series of acquisitions is really clever. Leader Qiu also took a cup of tea, took a sip, and continued to sigh, "However, there are still instructions, and the leader still has some opinions on you, after all, you are a national image symbol, and in front of so many heads of state, do you see how embarrassed you are to criticize the EU? This is called immature, unstable, and angry after being slandered by foreigners? Look at how many years our party has been slandered, is it still not very stable?
"Is that so serious?" Xu Teng was a little surprised!
"No, no, the leader just said that you are a little unstable and too anxious, and the rest is my interpretation. Leader Qiu immediately explained, now he knows that Xu Teng is in a bad mood, and he doesn't want to provoke the richest man, "Xiao Xu, it's not like I'm going to say a few words to you, if something can't be solved, you just let the government come forward to negotiate." You are only responsible for negotiating with the company, and the EU side is handed over to the government, and we have more experience and channels than you. ā
"To be honest, I don't care if the EU wants to delay ING and ABB, as of today, my layout in the field of international finance has been perfect, and ING is just the icing on the cake for me, dispensable. The point is that the German foreign minister is neurotic, inexplicably spraying me as a Chinese vulture and a scavenger, which seriously threatens Europe's economic security, and a large number of senior EU bureaucrats and European media are following the trend and hyping it up, resulting in such a big anti-China silver wave, which makes me end those business negotiations in the United States in a gloomy manner. Xu Teng really wants to say the truth, what the EU and the German foreign minister did really made him lose a lot.
He had already reached a good agreement with Brazil, and he didn't need to make another unjust money, and now he is forced to invest another $70 billion in Brazil, although it is a good opportunity to buy Brazil, but $70 billion is not a small amount.
"I think you should want to open up, you are developing so well now, so strong, it is normal for others to be red. If you are not of my race, your heart will be different, and the Germans think the same way, which is normal. Leader Qiu could only suggest that Xu Teng want to open a little, and when Xu Teng's anger subsided, he would talk about business.
"Your leader has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, let's say, what's there?" Xu Teng didn't waste time, he took care of everything he should deal with today, he had to go to bed early at night, and he would fly to London at 7 o'clock tomorrow, and spend a little more time with his parents and two children.
Although Mei Jiali is not the two children born after his direct OX, after all, they are also the descendants of their old Xu family, and they have always been raised by Xu's mother Xu, but Mei Jiali is busy with work and doesn't worry much.
During the New Year's holidays, Mr. Xu's mother will bring the two children back when she returns to China, and the family will be reunited, Xia Li has no complaints, she is very good to the two children over there, and treats them equally.
Having said that, Xu Teng and Mei Jiali have not been OX, Mei Jiali has a congenital fallopian tube problem, it is difficult to get pregnant normally, and this method is the best solution to avoid surgery.
For Xu Teng, he is almost busy now, go to London early, live in his parents' house at 16# Regent's Park for a while, accompany his parents, and cultivate a relationship with his children
Leader Qiu also heard that Xu Teng's itinerary was to fly directly to London tomorrow morning, and he would return to Jiangzhou in almost half a month, so Leader Qiu was in such a hurry to come over and seize the time to talk.
"What I want to say, you should also know, the four high-speed rail projects in Thailand, Indonesia, California and the United Kingdom, you have to take action personally, you must keep. We haven't found out exactly what the situation is with the Mexican high-speed rail, and as you said, we now suspect that there are Japanese people behind it. The above means to ask if you can find a way to turn the situation around?" Leader Qiu said the first thing first, and then talked about the rest slowly.
"On the Mexican side, the Japanese embassy gave a sum of money, about 400,000 US dollars, to hand over some of the information they have to the media, attack the Mexican president for corruption, and in addition, join forces with the opposition parties, the attack project will lose money, and it is meaningless to spend money to hire some experts to attack this project. Xu Teng basically knew that he was observing every move of Japan, but he felt that the Mexican project was unrealistic, so he did not fight back immediately.
"Sure enough, it's Japan, and we can guess that when the presidential scandal broke out in January, a diplomat from Japan's intelligence service happened to arrive in Mexico. "Qiu leadership is very headache, the above decision is to go all out to promote China's high-speed rail exports, enhance the world image of Made in China, and the most important thing is to use this time period to seize the long-term meal ticket of the international high-speed rail market.
"This means that your intelligence capabilities are not good, and the think tanks and research institutes of government departments cannot keep up with the needs of national development. Xu Teng teased Leader Qiu and made clear the accurate information he had, "You haven't noticed from the beginning that this President Pena Nieto is the elector with the most traditional Mexican Revolutionary Institutional Party spirit in the history of Mexico in the past 30 years, and his thoughts are biased towards his father, and he is hostile to the United States, believing that the United States has caused Mexico's weakness." He is also the only president of Mexico who has not graduated from an American university in the past few decades, and with his family's wealth and strength, he went to study in the United States, whether it is Yale or Harvard, he can choose at will, right? In addition, this person declared how to defend Mexico's independent spirit during the election campaign, and before he came to power, the CIA specially organized personnel to collect all kinds of dirty materials about him. ā
"Mexico's choice of China's high-speed rail is not only not only dissatisfied with Japan, but also unhappy with the United States, in the traditional political concept of the Americans, Mexico is the vegetable field of the United States, as long as Mexico wants to use the Sino-US game to make a profit, the Americans will definitely take action. Therefore, the intelligence was given by the Americans, and the Japanese were only responsible for spending money to make this matter bigger. ā
"This President Pena Nieto is also very smart, he was immediately honest after being taught a lesson, and the United States will not remove him from office for the time being, after all, a Mexican government with a very low public approval rating and no way to do anything is in the best interests of the United States. Xu Teng has long found out clearly, because CSR is part of Huateng Industrial Complex, and it is one of the most important pillars, the general contractor of the project is also jointly responsible for China Railway and Wanbo Group, and the financing party is the old partner China Development Bank and Huaxia Financial Group.
From the beginning of the bidding, the international public relations department of Huateng Company paid close attention to the dynamics, and after all the business intelligence was submitted to Xu Teng, he carefully assessed and concluded that this matter could not be carried out, so he asked the China Locomotive Group after the merger of the north and south to adjust the direction and concentrate on the two projects in Indonesia and Thailand, and several projects in the United Kingdom and Central and Eastern Europe were handed over to the Huayin consortium.
As for California high-speed rail, domestic policymakers are hoping for results.
Xu Teng obviously doesn't think so, he can only say that the level of think tank institutions is not in place, in fact, the Asia-Pacific Economic Research Institute, one of the most important think tanks in China, was funded and established by the Huayin Consortium.
I have a specialization in the art industry.
The Asia-Pacific Economic Research Institute mainly studies the world economy and the Asia-Pacific Free Trade System, and there is still a lack of excellent experts on US policy and legal issues.
The situation on Xu Teng's side is completely different, he directly set up a think tank in the United States to study the United States.
"In that case, forget it. "Leader Qiu is also a very pragmatic person, it has been involved in the Sino-US wrestling, or it is going to be fought far away in Mexico, and China really does not have an advantage.
Leader Qiu came to Xu Teng this time, mainly to talk about the Silk Road Economic Belt and the Belt and Road Issues, the Huayin Consortium invests 400 billion US dollars a year, and how much infrastructure construction can be taken out in Southeast Asia, and the above should also be asked clearly.
"As long as there are projects that can make a profit, funding is definitely not a problem, but the problem now is that it is difficult to make a profit, for example, the ports we built in Malaysia are not low in coercion on Singapore, but we don't make much profit. Xu Teng spread out his hands, not because he couldn't do it, but because it was difficult to make a profit.
Southeast Asia now needs at least $200 billion a year in infrastructure investment, and it's okay to do it, but making money is a problem.
This is one of the great evils of the democratic system, every political party has to try to curry favor with the electorate, and it is simply not able to think properly from the perspective of the long-term interests of the country.
The simplest is the Kuala Lumpur-Huangjing Port Expressway, which was originally said to be a 35-year toll operation period when bidding for the project, but the contract was signed and halfway through the construction, and the government could not resist the pressure of public opinion and wanted to take it back to build it.
Then, the first phase of the Huangjing Port project came out, Malaysia's supporting highway has not yet started, the whole port is rotten there, a rot is three years, and finally Xu Teng and the embassy came forward to force the highway contract to hand over to the Wanbo Group.
In other words, in ASEAN, every project must be supported by the strength of the country, and only by pressing the small with the big can it be profitable, and for the situation that is difficult to suppress in Indonesia, 80% will lose money.
The reason is simple, political instability.
Xu Teng can say that in ASEAN, as long as you can gather a few hundred people to demonstrate and come up with a whole set of propaganda programs, hundreds of thousands of dollars in spending can bring down a project worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
Who would dare to invest in such a region?
If you want to solve all this, you have only two options: one is to get the local politicians and let these politicians with power in the local area solve the problem, and the other is for the government to step in and force the other government to come up with means to ensure the success of the project.
Generally speaking, the Huayin consortium adopts the two schemes together, and the cost of many projects is much higher than on paper, and the final net profit is not very good.
"How about you try to ensure that you invest $30 billion a year in infrastructure along the Belt and Road? The government will try to help you deal with the problem, but in the end, it is up to you whether you can make a profit. "Leader Qiu set a condition, which feels like a very low standard.
"No way. Xu Teng directly vetoed, "Funding is not a problem at all, the problem is that the politics of these countries are very unstable, unless the country has 8 aircraft carrier groups, patrolling along the way to ensure that no matter which country's new government comes to power, it will not dare to trouble Chinese-funded enterprises, then there is no problem." ā
"We don't have it now, but that doesn't mean we won't have it in the future, maybe in ten years, even if there are not eight, at least four or five. "Leader Qiu is no longer the leader Qiu of the past, after years of tempering in this position, more and more politicians, in order to complete the instructions to fool the enterprise to death.
"Okay, I'll try. According to Xu Teng's understanding of domestic politics, the decision-making level does not put forward such quantitative targets for the enterprise at all, and it is all middle-level cadres like Qiu Leader who like to engage in indicators and report back to show their work achievements when they get the figures.
"Okay, as long as you do your best, anyway, as long as you can make a profit, I believe that your Huayin Consortium will never miss it. "Leader Qiu is not dead, he can see it, he hasn't seen him for more than a year, Xu Teng is no longer the Xu Teng of the past, he is not so good at cultivation, and his temper has become bad.
Leader Qiu thought about it carefully and felt that it was understandable that Xu Teng had even engaged in Wall Street, even the Middle East consortium had been cut in half, and even the EU was attacked as he pleased, not giving the EU any face to the host at all.
None of them.
People's lives are so!
Leader Qiu is very good at observing words and feelings, and it is clear that he, a ministerial-level leader, is a small middle-level cadre in Xu Teng's eyes, and his words are useless, so he doesn't need to take it too seriously.
Leader Qiu thought about it carefully and felt that it was understandable that Xu Teng had been a foreign head of state since 07 years to negotiate business on an equal footing, and he really didn't have to care too much about the cabinet minister.
"There's one last thing. "Leader Qiu originally made a long list, hoping that Xu Teng would solve his work problems, change his decision temporarily, and trouble Xu Teng less, in case he was angry, he would be unlucky.
Wrong.
Leader Qiu believes that if something happens, 99.99% of it will be his bad luck.
"Say it. Xu Teng still has self-cultivation, although he guessed what the was, he listened calmly.
"Northeast ...... Over there, what are you going to do?" As soon as Leader Qiu mentioned the word "Northeast", he obviously felt that the temperature in the room had plummeted by 7 degrees, and there was a murderous aura, a murderous aura.
"Is there any problem in the Northeast, is it related to me, and why do you want me to deal with it?" Xu Teng asked three times in a row, quietly watching the leader Qiu who had repeatedly "suggested" the Huayin Consortium to revitalize the Northeast, and decided to figure it out once and let the other party not mention this kind of thing in the future.
"The economic problems in the Northeast are still relatively complicated, of course, it has nothing to do with the Huayin Consortium, and there is no need to bother the chairman to deal with it personally. "Leader Qiu can only say that those who know the times are Junjie, since Comrade Xiao Xu has practiced Jiuyang Divine Skill and is invincible in the world, he still has to know each other a little bit and restrain a little bit.
The times are different, and now the decision-making level emphasizes serving the masses and enterprises, and if you don't change your thinking, you can only change your position.
"I will tell you one last time about the economic problems in the Northeast, and please give you a complete reaction. Xu Teng has a murderous spirit, but he will not make a move easily, and he still deliberately uses honorifics, "The development of any economic sector is based on population resources, and the economy of Northeast China has been in recession for a long time, and the fundamental problem is that talents have subsidized Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, and even subsidized the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta." The rest of the questions are just small problems with the details. The fundamental problem cannot be solved, and the solution to other problems can only be partially alleviated. Therefore, I personally do not recommend repeatedly mentioning the policy direction of revitalizing the Northeast, and the industrial planning should be based on the basic laws of the market.
"Secondly, I propose to redefine the national economic sector, with the Pearl River Bay Economic Circle as the new definition in the south, the Bohai Bay Economic Circle as the new definition in the north, and the Yangtze River Economic Belt as the new definition in the middle, with less mention of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Pearl River Delta, and expand the scope of the traditional economic plate, at most through the diffusion effect of one belt and two circles, one river and two bays, to stimulate the growth of the surrounding areas. ā
After Xu Teng finished speaking, he clearly informed Leader Qiu, "Just these two proposals." ā
"The chairman of the board of directors is worthy of the god of management, and he is far-sighted. Leader Qiu swore that he would mention the word "Northeast" to Xu Teng again, and he would stop being a leader and retire home to farm.
That's right, this is called a person who knows the times as a junjie!
