Chapter 1712 Wooing

"Success?" Reeves to Bascock. Fawkes asked, his tone indifferent.

"It worked, sir," said Baskirk. Fox stole a glance at the benevolent, but equally stern Mr. Reeves, and hurriedly lowered his head, and said in a tone of deference that he had never felt before, "Mr. Secretary has taken our suggestion, and if nothing else, this document will be on President George W. Bush's desk in the next two days, and your group will receive it soon." ”

"No," Reeves corrected Baskirk with a slight shake of his fingers. Fox's language problem, "It's your suggestion, not ours, and this must be clearly distinguished." ”

"Yes, Mr. Reeves, I understand." Baskirk. Fox shook slightly, he understood the meaning of Reeves's words: this matter has nothing to do with the Alice Group, if it can be successful in the end, it will naturally be him Baskirk. Fox has a bright eye, and when the time comes, it will bring him a huge bargaining chip for promotion; But if the final outcome of the negotiations is a failure, it is only by virtue of the original suggestion that he Baskirk. Fox also has a lot to offer.

But all this has nothing to do with the Alice Group, and if it can succeed in the end, the military industry of the Alice Group is the result of the great efforts of the Americans to move them back.

Reeves nodded, after such a long observation of his own, this Baskirk. Fox is still smart, and he knows how to advance and retreat, and knows what he can get, those things are not what he should expect, in general, this guy is a smart person, so, can you explain the little master's plan to him?

"Mr. Baskirk, I don't know if you ever thought that one day you could become the president of the United States?" Reeves's burning gaze, as if he could see directly into the depths of the human heart, stared at Baskirk like a blazing fire. Fawkes' eyes suddenly asked.

The President of the United States? Mr. Reeves asked me if I would like to be president of the United States? This is...... What does that mean? Could it be ...... Could it be ...... A wonderful prospect that seemed almost impossible to him, and which he had never hoped for before, suddenly appeared in front of him.

Baskirk. Fox was shocked and looked at Reeves in disbelief and extreme ecstasy. Fox's voice even stuttered a little, "Mr. Reeves...... This one...... I...... Of course...... But the United States doesn't seem to have this tradition. ”

"How could it not be?" Reeves asked strangely, "Didn't President Dwight D. Eisenhower of the United States since World War II always hold the position of the highest-ranking five-star general among the Americans and the supreme commander of the armed forces of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization before running for president?" In the past U.S. presidential election, the newly retired four-star general Wesley. Isn't Admiral Clark just a soldier? It was only because he had dealt with the army for a long time and had very little regard for internal affairs that he was ultimately defeated; Even the current president of the United States, Mr. George W. Bush, has not served in the military? Of course, Mr. Bush Jr. cannot be said to be a military man, but only a politician who has served in the military. If these people can become the president of the United States, why does Mr. Bascock now think that he cannot become the president of the United States? ”

Baskirk. Fox's heart followed Reeves's words, and it was involuntary to beat again involuntarily It seems that every word of Reeves falls heavily on his heart, and with every word of Reeves falling, his heart will involuntarily beat violently

With Reeves's words kept popping up, a year involuntarily grew like an uncontained weed in spring: I ...... Maybe I could become the president of the United States?

Bascock even felt that Mr. Reeves in front of him was a devil, a great demon who seduced himself to sin Compared with Mr. Reeves, the fallen angel Lucifer and the archdemon Satan are as simple as the purest angels...... If he could become president of the United States, Bascock felt that he would even be willing to sell his soul to the devil

Even at this moment Baskirk. Fawkes felt like he was selling his soul to the devil, otherwise why did he feel so light and fluttering?

"If Mr. Bascock is interested in running for President of the United States, the Alice Group will do everything in its power to support Mr. Bascock in the presidency of the United States. Of course, I wonder what Mr. Baskirk's personal wishes are? "In a daze, Baskirk. Fox heard Reeves say to himself in a voice that was extremely seductive. ,

Baskirk. Fox's personal wishes? Nonsense these days, only a fool does not want to be the president of the United States

Bascock never thought that he might one day become president of the United States. In Fox's own opinion, it is really a very distant thing for him, after all, those who can eventually become the president of the United States have a huge power group behind them, providing enough financial support and other kinds of support for the candidate.

Baskirk. Fox is very aware of his disadvantages, he doesn't have any of these things, and as a soldier, no super-large power group would choose to support himself as a soldier. But if there is the support of the Alice Group...... Things are completely different, the strength of the Alice Group is so huge that I don't even dare to imagine

Although he is not clear about the strength of the Alice Group, what he knows now is enough for Baskirk. willies

Of course, Baskirk. Fox knew that if he finally became the president of the United States with the support of the Alice Group, then he would have to do his best to give the green light to the various business activities of the Alice Group in the future, and there would be no problem even if he violated the law slightly...... If you seriously investigate, which of those super business giants in the United States has not broken the law? It's just that their methods of breaking the law are deeper and more hidden.

In the same way, in order to vigorously repay the supporters who supported their rise to the presidency, all this is normal and natural in the eyes of all Americans: no one's money is blown by the wind, and since they are willing to accept this support, they have to bear the responsibility of reciprocating, which is a kind of contract.

Since he accepted the money from Alice Group, the two parties have reached a kind of contract. If Fox doesn't follow this contract, then his presidency will come to an end, and even everyone will boycott it: no group of forces will support a guy who doesn't follow the contract.

His heart was beating violently, and Bascock. Fox felt as if he had been hypnotized, "Yes, Mr. Reeves, if your group is willing to support me to become the president of the United States, I am personally willing to do my best to fight for the interests of the Alice group after becoming the president of the United States." ”

"OK, then...... Happy cooperation" Reeves nodded with satisfaction and smiled at Baskirk. Fox held out his hand, "Mr. Baskirk, Mr. future President Baskirk, I think you need to make some preparations for your future to be president. The same mistake as General Clark: a lack of knowledge of domestic affairs for spending too long in the army will ultimately lead to your defeat. ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Bush Jr. groaned, looking at the document in front of him, the final conclusion of this document is not much different from the conclusion he got from the RAND think tank, the difference is that the document of the Ministry of Defense is more inclined to explain this issue from a military point of view, while the RAND think tank is from the political, military, economic, cultural and other soft and hard aspects of a comprehensive elaboration, of course, lower than the point of view of reaching an agreement with the US military industrial giants on this matter, whether it is the RAND think tank or the military's final document, it is mentioned.

Secretary of Defense Donald. Rumsfeld sat straight on the big luxurious sofa in front of Bush Jr., waiting for Bush Jr.'s reply. Rumsfeld firmly believes that the two sides should come to a similar conclusion.

"Donald," George W. Bush raised his head as he gently placed the document on the table, "That's a good suggestion, I think we need to hold a meeting as soon as possible to discuss this matter, and if everyone has no opinions, then everyone will have to communicate with the top management of the major companies separately." ”

"Yes, Mr. President," Donald said. Rumsfeld bowed slightly, "Our military doesn't have any opinions, the only thing I'm worried about is how smooth this matter is, and I suggest that I contact the Alice Group first?" ”

Let's get in touch with Alice Group and see their attitude? George W. Bush groaned a little in his heart, "That's right, we should contact us first and convey our sincerity to the Alice Group." ”,

As the spokesman for the interests of the US fire giants, although Bush Jr. is very aware of the importance of introducing the Alice Group into the United States, an unavoidable fact is that once the Alice Group's military industrial projects return to the United States, it will certainly have an impact on the interests of the traditional US military giants. In essence, this incident was to sacrifice the interests of the old American military industrial giants in exchange for the return of the Alice Group, and Bush Jr. was very worried in his heart, and in the end, his big bosses would agree to this document? Although this document is indeed for the sake of US national strategic security, it does so at the expense of the interests of the current vested interests of the United States.

Bush Jr. shook his head helplessly, on the one hand, his big boss, on the other hand, the overall interests of the United States, how to choose, what the final result is, now Bush Jr. has no bottom in his heart.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Miss, Ambassador Brookings would like to meet with you." Jill knocked softly on the door and came in, placing a letter from the U.S. Embassy in Beijing on Alice's desk and whispering.

"Brookings?" Alice put down the pen in her hand, a little strange, "Do you know what's going on?" ”

"I don't know for the time being, but it is estimated to be related to what the US government is discussing recently," Jill pursed his lips and smiled, and the endless style was undoubtedly displayed at this moment, "Recently, the RAND think tank, the military, and the government are all discussing the matter of moving the military industrial department of our Alice Group back to the United States, and it is estimated that the purpose of this Brookings trip is to explore the way for the Americans to see what attitude we have in urging this matter." ”

"Hmph~" Alice snorted lightly, "These guys, do you really think that you can understand what we mean so easily?" ”

"After all, the two sides have different habits of thinking," Jill said with a smile, "not to mention that the military science and technology in our hands have already had an impact on the global strategic security and interests of the United States, and if this situation is allowed to develop, I am afraid that in the next 10 years, the world's right to speak will not be in the hands of the Americans." ”

"Boeing, Lockheed. What is the attitude of Martin's major military-industrial giants towards us? Alice asked with a soft snort.

"Of course, it's not very welcome, after all, it's their interests that we go back to attack. Their proposal to the U.S. government is that the U.S. government buy from us the patents for these weapons that we have developed, and that they produce them themselves after they have the patents. But I think the bottom line is that we license them to produce. If we Alice Group are 'ignorant' and must force our way in, it is said that the possibility of our Alice Group 'cooperating' in other ways cannot be ruled out...... In any case, these major military-industrial giants do not want to see the presence of our company's military-industrial department on American soil. ”

"These guys...... Also too whimsical to transfer technology to them? Still trying to subdue us by means? Alice snorted softly, with a hint of disdain on her face, "When we're muddy, they can pinch as much as they want?" If it were someone else, it would be fine, but these guys haven't suffered enough from our Alice Group over the years? A bunch of fools who don't have a long memory"

"It's not surprising, although the Americans have suffered a lot in our hands over the years, but basically the US government is suffering, basically there is nothing to do with these guys, since they haven't met with us, it is natural that they think they are very powerful." Jill was very open-minded and said with a smile.

"It seems that some people need to have a long memory, these guys, if you don't beat them hard, you won't know the pain," Alice's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, "Let these guys who don't know the height of the sky know what a miserable consequence they will get if they anger our Alice Group"

"Okay" Jill nodded, thought for a moment, and asked, "Would you like to give them an example?" ”

"You go ahead and arrange it," Alice, who had never been indecisive in such a matter, waved her hand and sentenced the unlucky guy who came out of nowhere, "let the movement be bigger, and if necessary, it doesn't matter if you chop off a few heads." ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"U.S. Ambassador Wilkins is in contact with the Alice Group?" The news sent by the intelligence department, and the startled Brother Hu suddenly jumped up from his chair,

"Do you know what they're exposed to?" Brother Hu asked in a deep voice, his voice a little anxious.

"It's not very clear for the time being, but it is estimated that it has something to do with the movements of the Americans, and if I am not mistaken, it is very likely that this Wilkins is going to be a lobbyist for the US government and test the reaction of the Alice Group." The voice of the person who spoke was a little low.

Brother Hu fell into deep thought.

The Chinese side has its own intelligence personnel in the United States, so it naturally knows what the US government is busy with these days: After seeing the military strength of the Alice Group, the Americans are moved and are eager to relocate the military industrial department of the Alice Group back to the United States to serve the global interests and hegemony of the United States.

Although it is normal to know that the Alice Group is in contact with the US ambassador, and the Alice Group itself is an American company, it seems that the Alice Group does not have much affection for the US government, but if the US government changes its previous attitude towards the Alice Group, then things will be completely different.

Brother Hu also understands that keeping the Alice Group is also a huge opportunity for himself, and the current Alice Group is still closer to the Chinese side after all, if the military industry department of the Alice Group can be kept in China, the rise of the country can be shortened by at least 20 years...... As with the tradition in China, when foreign countries have not paid attention to it, no one takes it seriously, but when foreigners think that your things are good, domestic people will treat them as fragrant and sweet, and this time is no exception.

But how? Brother Hu frowned tightly, and the knuckles of his index finger subconsciously tapped on the table: in order to win over this damn Alice group, he had even given up the position of a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee; Increase military orders from the Alice Group? Yes, but China's economic strength is still very limited after all, and it is impossible to spill a lot of dollars like the US government, not to mention that there are so many relevant units in the country waiting to feed.

What can be done to keep the military division of the Alice Group in China? Brother Hu has a headache, why doesn't this Alice Group know how to cooperate with the government's work? I don't know what kind of price the government will pay this time

As soon as he thought of this question, Brother Hu couldn't help but feel a little angry at this Alice Group, and he was also greedy and didn't know how to advance or retreat

Brother Hu didn't speak, and the guy who came to report to work didn't speak, abiding by his duty, quietly waiting for Brother Hu's orders like a shadow.

Finally, Brother Hu's unconsciously tapping fingers on the table suddenly stopped, and the shadow's expression suddenly changed, and he understood that the big boss had a plan.
