Chapter 1947: Wait a Week
(Second Update)
Speaking of which, I have to admit that the US government's continuous political infiltration of governments over the years has been quite effective, even if it is under various considerations, the US government does not make its own voice in this matter, but if Boeing and Lockheed . These big American arms dealers, led by the Martin Company, spoke to those countries, and these countries had to weigh carefully: At that time, under pressure from all sides, there may be nothing to do, and the US government can't do anything to us, but what if the Americans settle accounts with us after the fact? Who will be able to stand it then?
"Well, that's a good idea."
Neither of them spoke, but the meaning in their eyes understood, nodded slightly, and reached a tacit agreement: Isn't it just pulling the tiger's skin to make a big banner, and the big conglomerates in the United States have done less in the past? Familiar with the way, very relaxed.
――――――――――――――――――――――――
"Miss Alice, we're interested in your plane, but for now, if you can't help us fight off the planes from Boeing and Lockheed. Martin's pressure, then we have to give up. ”
The ambassador of the Western European country of Luxembourg to China, Ke Yihe, came to visit Alice, and immediately after the greetings, he got into the topic.
"Did Boeing and Loma put pressure on your government through their channels?" It seems that Alice had expected this situation, and Alice only smiled slightly at Ke Yihe's worried words, and did not feel too strange.
It is indeed not surprising that what they did this time was from Boeing and Lockheed. Martin grabbed food in its mouth, or to put it more bluntly, it directly offended the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium, the two largest conglomerates in the United States, although they have already greeted the U.S. government, the U.S. government cannot make any moves, but as two of the top ten consortia in the United States, even if the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium have made a voice to a small country like Luxembourg for their own interests, for the Luxembourg government, the voices of the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium, It's basically the same as the U.S. government making a voice......
It is even more serious than the voice of the US government, as a government agency of a country, in foreign affairs, the US government has to consider the international influence to some extent, but as a "pure businessman", when the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium made their voices to Luxembourg at the same time, Luxembourg was really afraid.
Ke Yihe nodded, his face was a little worried, "Yesterday, the price of refined oil in our country increased by 0.1 euros. ”
The Luxembourg government does not doubt that if it insists on going its own way in this matter, the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium will deal with it in the future, and even if he does not listen to his call this time, the two major consortiums will immediately retaliate against him.
As an effect, Luxembourg's own industry is not complete, especially the energy industry, although it claims to have its own energy industry, but people who really understand know that Luxembourg's energy industry, especially the oil industry, is basically controlled by foreign companies, and as the world's oil industry giant, Exxon. Mobil Oil controls 60% of Luxembourg's national oil supply.
"Is this a warning to you?" Zhang Lan sighed.
"There has not been any drastic fluctuations in international oil prices recently, and I can't think of anything that can make the price of refined oil in the Luxembourg domestic market rise by 0.1 euros all of a sudden," Ko Yihe said with a wry smile. ”
0.1 euro is not a small amount, and apart from the punitive and cautionary purpose, to warn the Luxembourg government not to be disobedient, the Luxembourg government cannot think of any other reason to explain this.
"So...... What is the attitude of your government? Zhang Lan thought for a moment and asked Ke Yihe.
"If you Alice Group can help us solve the current difficulties, then our cooperation will continue, even if your product performance is a little worse than that of Boeing and Loma; But if you can't do that......" Koehe smiled bitterly, didn't speak, and handed a piece of paper to Alice. …,
Alice read the above and handed it to Zhang Lan.
Seeing the above content, Zhang Lan couldn't help but be angry: These guys really dare to open their mouths, this piece of paper clearly writes Lockheed. Some of the products that Martin and Boeing "recommended" to the Luxembourg government have a total value of up to 1 billion euros.
"This group of hooligans" Zhang Lan scolded fiercely.
Aren't you hooligans, not only are you not allowed to buy other people's things, but you also have to spend a lot of money to buy our things, as for whether you need to get these things, Lao Tzu cares so much about you, you dare to hook up with others, you are offending Lao Tzu, not small Lao Tzu's heart This anger in Lao Tzu's heart, Lao Tzu is not finished with you
That's what Zhang Lan learned from Boeing and Lockheed. What is deep to see in this catalogue that Martin "recommended" to the Luxembourg government...... Sure enough, they are the descendants of a group of hooligans, thieves and robbers, and their style of doing things is a good continuation of the traditions of their ancestors.
"Yes and no." Ke Yihe nodded in agreement and poured bitter water on Zhang Lan and Alice.
The Luxembourg government asked Ko Yihe, the ambassador to China, to ask Alice for help, of course, with its own calculations.
Who is stronger between the Alice Group and the Rockefeller Consortium and the California Consortium, everyone basically has a judgment in their hearts, even if it is not clear, seeing that the US government has adopted a silent attitude in this matter, and the Rockefeller Consortium and the California Consortium can only use this kind of "three indiscriminate" tricks to deal with, they also have a rough judgment in their hearts: I think the strength comparison between the two sides is basically the same, even if there is a gap, there is little difference, However, compared with the Alice Group, which behaves in a disciplined manner, the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium are too unauthentic.
No country or individual likes someone to stick to their neck, even to take a breath to get permission from others, if you can take this opportunity to get rid of the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium to control themselves, for Luxembourg, the choice of Alice Group is also a good choice, now their only concern is whether the Alice Group can face the pressure of the two major consortiums of the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium at the same time, and finally be able to win?
Luxembourg is actually quite sad, it doesn't matter if the gods fight, but the gods chose the small territory of their family to fight, which is enough for them to be extremely sad. But helplessly, Luxembourg, with small arms and legs, must choose to stand on the side, in the face of this struggle related to Luxembourg's national fortunes, the Luxembourg government must not be cautious, even if they are inclined to choose the Alice Group in their hearts, but they dare not make a decision before they are sure that the Alice Group has enough strength to overwhelm the Rockefeller Consortium and the California Consortium, or at least has the qualifications to be on an equal footing with the Rockefeller Consortium and the California Consortium.
To put it mildly, in the current Luxembourg government, there are many spokesmen for the interests of the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium, and even if the Luxembourg presidential office and the prime minister's office want to get closer to the Alice group, they have to be careful of the counterattack of the Rockefeller consortium and the California consortium.
"Well," Alice said to Koich with a smile after a moment's thought, "Mr. Trouble Ambassador to tell President Sirleaf and Prime Minister Jacker to wait a week. ”
Wait a week? Hearing Alice's words, Ke Yihe's eyes suddenly lit up: What do you mean? Could it be that the pressure on Luxembourg will change dramatically in a week? What will Alice Group do within this week to salvage the current situation?
If you can do it, of course, this is great, but this world is too short, right? A lot of wordsKe Yihe looked at Alice in disbelief, and said expectantly, "Miss Alice, what do you mean ......?"
"We're not going to let our friends down." Alice smiled and nodded, not answering Ko Yihe's question directly, but also not denying it.
Ke Yihe was immediately relieved, yes, Alice didn't answer her question positively, but she didn't deny it, did she? It's only a week, although the presidential palace and the prime minister's office are under great pressure now, but a week, Luxembourg is not unable to survive, if you can use a week to test whether the Alice Group has enough strength to be an ally of Luxembourg, this is simply a cost-effective thing.
"Very well," said Koich, nodding immediately, "Miss Alice, in a week's time, we await your good news. ”
"Of course," Alice nodded, and suddenly said with a vague and unintentional presence, "Mr. Koich, if I remember correctly, President Sirleaf and Prime Minister Jacques have always wanted to establish their own complete system of oil industry, right?" Quite a few words"
"Of course, the establishment of our own complete oil industry system in Luxembourg has always been the wish of all our Luxembourg citizens." Ke Yihe stared at Alice in disbelief, with a look of anticipation and disbelief, and even his breathing became noticeably short: What does Alice mean? Could it be that they are willing to help Luxembourg improve its oil industry system?
Alice looked at Zhang Lan.
Zhang Lan coughed lightly and gave Ke Yihe an affirmative reply, "We will never be stingy with our friends. ”
Ke Yihe glanced at Zhang Lan deeply, and nodded heavily, "Okay, Miss Alice, Mr. Zhang Lan, I understand what you mean, I will convey your meaning to Mr. President and Mr. Prime Minister...... Believe that we will be the best friends. ”
"We're already friends, aren't we?"
Ke Yihe was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "That's right, we're already good friends." ”……,
