In the face of China, East Asian and Southeast Asian countries have a complex mentality. On www.biquge.info the one hand, they have a natural fear of China, even if it is a country like Fuso, which was once powerful and caused great harm to China. These countries are deeply influenced by Chinese culture, and for thousands of years, they have been shrouded in the shadow of China. Moreover, China has a vast territory and a large population, and once it develops, it will inevitably be a giant existence, so they must not be afraid.

On the other hand, these countries do not want to be controlled by China anymore, because of a humiliating history of modern China, they have broken the superstition of China, and even have a psychological advantage over China, the most typical of which is the Bangzi State and Fusang, which made them start to challenge China and use it as their own achievement.

Thailand don't have the same ambitions as Fuso and Bangziguo, but they don't want to be controlled by China either. Therefore, in the face of such a huge investment by Lu Yang, Ba Yu instinctively became vigilant in his heart.

"Prime Minister Ba Xu, you don't have to worry, the project I have invested in not only has broad prospects, but also has endless benefits for your country!" Lu Yang said with a smile.

Ba asked cautiously: "I don't know what project Mr. Lu wants to invest in?" ”

Lu Yang raised his index finger: "I came to Thailand and only wanted to invest in one project, and that was the canal!" ”

"Canal!" Ba Yu suddenly realized in his heart, "Mr. Lu, you mean that you want to dig a canal in the Kra Isthmus?" ”

"Not bad!"

Ba Xiang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it turned out to be this project.

Ten years ago, there were voices in China saying that the Kra Canal should be excavated, so as not to be controlled by the United States in the energy lifeline. Three years ago, there were constant rumors that Huaxia was going to jointly develop the Kra Canal with Thailand, but the Thai side denied it. Two years ago, there was news that the Kra Canal project was about to be launched, but it was confirmed as a rumor.

Before coming to Thailand, Lu Yang contacted China and learned that the issue of whether to dig the Kra Canal has been discussed for many years, and there is still no conclusion.

There are too many domestic concerns, so I haven't been able to make up my mind so far, and Lu Yang has no problems in this regard. According to his understanding, the advantages of opening the Kra Canal outweigh the disadvantages, and this time the Lion City has provoked Lu Yang, once the Kra Canal is opened, the Lion City will be equivalent to being abandoned.

The benefits of opening the Kra Canal are many, both economic and political, but the risks are not small, the biggest of which is Thailand. The canal is all on the territory of Thailand, once it is opened, what will the Thai government do in the future? You know, Thailand has a tradition of military coups, if Lu Yang and the Pakistani government sign an agreement, and the government that comes to power in the future does not recognize it, then his investment will not be in vain?

For this point, Ba Yu is also clear in his heart, after all, Huaxia and Thailand have been talking about the Kra Canal issue for so many years, and they know each other very well.

"Mr. Lu, do you plan to invest in the Kra Canal, on behalf of yourself or the Huaxia government?" Ba Yu was full of doubts.

"I am representing myself and representing Penglai Island." Lu Yang said calmly.

"Then you're not worried about the risks of the canal project?" Ba wanted to be tempted.

Lu Yang said: "Prime Minister Pakistan, we don't talk in secret, I invest in the Kra Canal, I have my own interests, so in the cooperation agreement, my interests must be guaranteed." To do this, I have to rule out some uncertainties......"

Ba wanted to weigh in his heart, Lu Yang's words revealed too much information, and he had to be careful in the next negotiations.

The Thai government also has an agency to analyze a figure like Lu Yang, who has a distinct personality, is very bold, acts a little unscrupulously, and has a strong nationalist tendency. The point is that he is powerful and has countless high-tech in his hands, and no one can bully him. Even the world hegemon Mi failed to take advantage of Lu Yang, let alone their Thailand.

It is precisely because of these considerations that Ba Xu's attitude will be more cautious, he doesn't want to cooperate, but offends Lu Yang and causes him to take revenge.

At the press conference, some reporters directly accused Lu Yang's cyber attack of causing the death of thousands of Chinese in the Lion City, accusing Lu Yang of being the executioner, which made Lu Yang very embarrassed.

In his heart, Lu Yang hated the Lion City and the United States even more.

In Bangkok, intelligence officers from various countries became busy, all inquiring about the purpose of Lu Yang's visit to Thailand. The whole world knows that Lu Yang is a bit of a home, and it is easy not to go abroad, even if he goes abroad, he is not so formal. This time, his rather unusual style deserves a good study from the outside world.

After the welcome ceremony, Ba Xiang and Lu Yang had a simple meeting, but in public, the two tacitly agreed that they did not talk about the Kra Canal again. In the evening of the same day, Pakistan convened an urgent cabinet meeting to discuss the issue of Luyang's investment.

As soon as they heard that Lu Yang planned to invest 500 billion, those cabinet ministers were stupid, if it weren't for Ba Xu's serious face, they would even think that their boss was joking.

Commerce Minister Chacha was the first to agree: "Prime Minister, this is a good opportunity, if we can get the 500 billion investment, our economy will definitely reverse the current decline." What's more, after the opening of the canal, the annual toll is astronomical, and the southern economy can also take advantage of the situation! ”

"I don't think I can say yes easily!" Defense Minister General Bayi said, "Huaxia and we have been talking about the Kra Canal plan for several years, and the reason why it has been delayed until now is because of the issue of garrison rights. Although Lu Yang is talking to us about this issue on behalf of Penglai Island, I don't think his conditions will change much, which is known from the fact that he came with the guards, obviously distrusting us! ”

"But it would be a pity if you gave up, an investment of 500 billion yuan, equivalent to 2.5 trillion baht, with this money, the development of the southern economy will not be a problem......," Chacha said.

"We can't just settle economic accounts, not political accounts." Bai Yi said decisively.

Ba Xu also had a little headache, he felt that the 500 billion was the poison thrown by Lu Yang, which made Thailand want to eat it, but also dare not eat it.

"Prime Minister, I don't think we need to draw conclusions so early, after all, we haven't talked about it yet, how do we know Lu Yang's conditions?" Foreign Minister Tanassa said, "In general, I support the Kra Canal project, but I don't think this matter can only be done with Huaxia, it is better to bring Fuso in." Compared to them, we are the weakest, but the hatred between Fusang and Huaxia is difficult to solve, so we can be left and right......"

Tanasa's plan is good, but Ba Yu shook his head: "You all know Lu Yang, it is impossible for him to cooperate with Fusang." If we insist on implementing this plan, we may provoke him to be anxious, and when the time comes, the cooperation will not be successful, and the two sides will become enemies. ”

"So what, are we still afraid of him?" Bayi said in a loud voice.

Ba Yu said: "It's not that I'm afraid of him, Penglai Island is very powerful, but it can't help us." It's just that Penglai Island is full of high-tech, and no one knows how far they will develop in the future, so it's not worth ...... offending Lu Yang for this."

"Let's talk about it first, look at Lu Yang's conditions, as long as they are not particularly excessive, I think they can consider it, after all, this is 500 billion." Finance Minister Songpa said.

Almost at the same time, Mi Guo, Fusang and other countries had already guessed Lu Yang's intentions, and the two countries suddenly became anxious and began to find ways to prevent the cooperation between Huaxia and Thailand. The reason why the rice country is anxious is that it is afraid of losing Malacca, a means to contain China, and Fuso is afraid of losing the opportunity to open the Kra Isthmus. Like Huaxia, Fuso has been seeking cooperation with Thailand for many years to jointly develop the Kra Isthmus.

There are many smart people in the world, although Lu Yang and the Thai side have not announced it, many media have published the news that Lu Yang wants to invest in the Kra Isthmus. Thinking of the Lion City cyberattack a month ago, Lu Yang's motive is clear.

When the Lion City heard the news, the high-level people were in chaos, and Prime Minister Li Xian immediately asked the United States for confirmation, and the United States gave confirmation, and the blow almost made Li Xian faint. Li Xian has experienced the rise of the Lion City and knows very well what Malacca means to the Lion City, and if the Straits of Malacca are lost, the potential for the development of the Lion City will be reduced by half.

It is conceivable that once the Kra Canal is opened, 90% of the ships will make a detour, very simply, the ship departs from Asia, and the distance from the Strait of Malacca to the Indian Ocean is more than 1,000 kilometers longer than the Kra Isthmus, which is equivalent to an extra day for ordinary cargo ships!

Li Xian's heart was extremely bitter, he didn't expect Lu Yang's revenge to be so ruthless, and when he came up, he would cut off his roots! If he was given another chance, Li Xian would definitely not offend Lu Yang.

Although the news is not confirmed, the rumors of the opening of the Kra Canal alone have caused great panic in the Lion City. In the next few days, the Lion City was talking about the Kra Canal, and in addition, the Lion City had already shown signs of a large-scale outflow of capital, which gave Li Xian and them a headache.

"We should visit Huaxia at this time and let Huaxia cancel this plan!" Zhang Xian proposed.

"Is it still useful to talk about this now, we have all let the United States garrison the army, how can Huaxia be like before, because we will give up the development of the Kra Canal because we say a few good words?" Huang Xun, Minister of National Development, said.

"You can't do nothing, can you?"

"Now, we can only look for the United States, and they are the only ones who have the ability to prevent the opening of the Kra Canal!" Shang Da said, "And the rice country should help us, we are for the Huaxia they offended, and now that Huaxia has come to take revenge on us, shouldn't they take action?" (To be continued.) )
