Chapter 1001 Becoming Fat After One Bite of Food

Since the Maastricht Treaty came into force in 1993 and the EU was formally established, it has been 256 years in a blink of an eye.

But this situation, after the emergence of Galaxy Industry, has been broken again and again, especially in the past two years, Galaxy Industry has made rapid achievements in science and technology, and China has become increasingly strong because of one more Galaxy Industry.

For example, Pakistan has imported a lot of heavy weapons and equipment, aircraft, artillery, and tanks from Galaxy Industry, and Pakistan has spent nearly 100 billion Chinese dollars on the import of these weapons and equipment.

At first, the Indian government was dismissive of the military products of the Galaxy Industry, and they still preferred the weapons made in Russia, the United States, Europe and other places, and later, after suffering losses on the battlefield, India began to face up to the military products of the Galaxy Industry, but they wanted to import from the Galaxy Industry, not only did they not have the ability to buy weapons and equipment with performance comparable to those purchased by Pakistan, but even the purchase price had to be several percent more than that of Pakistan, and some even had to double the purchase price of Pakistan.

The Indian government protested many times, and even sent many tough diplomatic notes to the Chinese government, but Galaxy simply broke off its contacts with the Indian government, and finally the Indian government had to pinch its nose and import weapons from Galaxy at a high price. With these weapons and equipment, in the military confrontation with Pakistan, the Indian military can only recover the decline, but if they want to regain the initiative, it is no longer something that the Indian military can do, and the weapons and equipment they use cannot beat the Pakistani military at all.

In the Indian Ocean, the Maldives Islands, as early as a few years ago, the Maldives reached a comprehensive cooperation agreement with Galaxy Industry, and the Maldives used its own tourism resources as collateral to apply for help from Galaxy Industry. In recent years, Yinhe Industry has helped the Maldives to build a seawater desalination treatment plant, build various facilities to protect the islands, treat the domestic waste and industrial waste generated in the Maldives, and optimize the integration of the Maldives' tourism resources. In just a few years, the living standards of Maldivian residents have improved dramatically, with an annual per capita income of more than one and a half times that of the previous one.

In the Maldives, Galaxy Industry has always appeared in the name of a commercial company, never interfered in the internal affairs of the Maldives, nor did it ask for extrajudicial privileges, it is precisely because of this that Galaxy Industry has a very high reputation in the Maldives, and some people even joked that Liu Shiqing will be able to be elected with a high vote if he participates in the Maldives presidential election.

In the Middle East, the existence of the Galaxy industry, but also helped the people of the Arab world to get a huge change, the completion of the desalination treatment plant, so that the general shortage of water in Arab countries has been greatly improved, originally everywhere to go, is the vast desert, now, with fresh water irrigation, some Arabs have also engaged in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery industry. In addition, Galaxy Industry has also invested in the Arab world to set up factories and engage in environmental protection industry, which has also won the respect of the locals.

In Israel, which has not been very good with the Arab world, Galaxy Industry has also established a lot of influence in the local area, and a large number of Jews have been hired by Galaxy Industry, flooding Galaxy Industry's domestic and foreign companies in China, and it is no exaggeration to say that Galaxy Industry's employees, in addition to the most Chinese people, even if there are more Jews. These Jews named Shahari? Led by Majedra, he is a force to be reckoned with within Galaxy Industries.

The EU knows all of the above, but it is precisely because it knows that the EU member states are extraordinarily affectionate after learning of Wang Zewei's speech at the United Nations headquarters. If it hadn't happened at the beginning, the EU would have had a very good relationship with Galaxy Industry, but it was because the German police beat Wang Zewei, Yang Nuoting and others that things got out of control.

It is too late to say anything, and the EU has to discuss again how to resolve the impasse with Galaxy Industrial. This time, however, even in the face of the space base, the largest space structure in human history, there is still no way to reach a consensus within the EU. In this case, in addition to the great differences in the interests of various countries, the pride in the bones of Europeans still continues to play a role, and there is also a very superficial reason, whether Galaxy Industry really has the ability to build a space base, which is also a question worth discussing.

This is not about building a house on the ground, with the earth as a support, as long as the foundation is strong enough, how high the building is willing to build, how large the area to build, there will be no problem, but in space, it is different. According to the announcement of Galaxy Industry, it is a big guy covering an area of more than two million square meters, whether it is transported to the air, or formed in the air, or after completion, how to maintain its normal operation, to ensure that it will not appear technology, machinery and other aspects of applause, this is a problem that cannot be bypassed. At the beginning, the toilets of the International Space Station went wrong, and the astronauts suffered a lot. According to Galaxy Industrial, the space base will accommodate 10,000 people in the future, but if there is a slight problem in the space base, these 10,000 people will encounter all kinds of dangers.

This question was raised by German astronauts, and it was also a way for the German government to come up with a way to divert attention after becoming the target of public criticism within the European Union. So that those countries that are keen to get close to Galaxy Industry will wake up and realize that now is not the time to make contact with Galaxy Industry.

When Germany raised the issue, the British side had already begun to contact with Galaxy Industry, and it was a senior representative of the British government who led the negotiations, but it was indeed Prince William, the British crown prince, who led the delegation, and when he came, he specially brought Princess Elizabeth, who had just returned to China. The British side has realized the lethality of Princess Elizabeth to Liu Shiqing, and is ready to use this cute little girl to play the emotional card well and let Liu Shiqing make more concessions.

At the same time, Canada, Brazil, Australia and other countries have also contacted Galaxy Industries, hoping to participate in the space base. These countries have also considered whether Galaxy Industry is a smoke bomb and whether it is really capable of building a space base? But full of suspicion, they didn't dare to make the decision not to get involved.

In case their suspicions are wrong, Galaxy Industry really has the ability to build a space base, then later, if they want to join the space base, there are only two situations, one is that there is no extra equity for them, and the other is to pay a higher price than now, no matter which one, it is difficult for them to accept.

Of course, if their suspicions are correct, the most they can do is to lose some funds, and when the time comes, there will always be a way to go to Yinhe Industrial to fight a lawsuit and ask the Chinese government for it.

The whole world is moving, and the only thing that Liu Shiqing didn't think of was that even Africans moved. On behalf of all member states, the African Union took the initiative to contact Liu Shiqing, hoping that Galaxy Industry could give them at least one-thousandth of the equity, they do not want to have a say in the space base, but at least to ensure their survival, so that people all over the world know that Africa also cares about the development of the aerospace industry, and the interests of space also have a part of Africa.

Africa has a vast territory, but there are few rich countries, and today, the United States and Europe pay attention to Africa, mainly focusing on Africa's rich natural resources, even if it is China, when dealing with Africa, the main purpose is also for Africa's oil, ore and other resources.

Let the poor Africans pay for it, they may not be able to afford it, anyway, Liu Shiqing has already made enough money from the Arabs, and the Japanese have also taken the initiative to stretch their necks, waiting for him to be slaughtered, whether to make money from Africans is not a big problem.

Liu Shiqing simply communicated with the military, and then the Chinese government stepped forward and donated 5/10,000 of the shares held by the Chinese government in the space base to the African Union free of charge. Don't look at the small proportion, this is also a place of more than 200 square meters, worth billions of Chinese coins. At the same time, Galaxy Industries also expressed its willingness to help the African Union train two black astronauts, free of charge.

The African Union has taken up more than 200 square meters of space base for nothing without paying a penny, and has also been given two places to train black astronauts for free, which is a pie-in-the-sky thing. Africans are overjoyed, and many African countries have issued statements expressing their welcome to Galaxy Industry to take the lead in building the largest space building ever built by mankind. The African Union is willing to do its part for the construction of the space base.

Those African countries that are good friends with China have sent people to visit China, wanting to grab one of the two places for free astronaut training for their own Chinese people.

Wang Zewei and Shao Ruolian visited the United States on behalf of Galaxy Industry, and the wave triggered lasted for more than a month, and the attitude of the Americans has always refused to ease, but although the negotiations with Russia, Japan, and the United Kingdom were difficult, they still reached agreements one after another.

Russia does not have enough funds to buy shares in the space base, and in order to maintain the stability of its own economy, it is impossible for them to take out all their foreign exchange reserves in exchange for shares in the space base. Just like in the mid-to-late nineties of the last century, the financial predator Soros sniped at the Thai baht, and the Thai baht finally collapsed, one of the big reasons is that Thailand's foreign exchange reserves are too small, and at the critical moment, the stamina is insufficient, and the guide has no way to compete with international hedge funds, and finally the credit is lost. Later, Soros was like sniping at the Hong Kong dollar, and it was the central government that used the mainland's foreign exchange reserves to help the Hong Kong SAR government, which turned Hong Kong's financial system into a safe one.

For many governments, holding foreign exchange reserves is a last resort, not more reserves, it is very likely that at a critical time, there will be a tragedy like Thailand's, a large amount of foreign exchange, the safety of these assets is a problem, value preservation and appreciation are problems that have to be faced. The last thing to worry about in this regard is the United States, who let the dollar pass through the world.

Russia didn't want to lose this opportunity, and it had no money, so in the end, it had no choice but to accept the proposal of Galaxy Industrial, that is, to exchange resources for equity. If oil, natural gas or iron ore, coal and other minerals are found here, Russia will hand over 51 percent of the equity of oil and gas fields or mines to Yinhe Industry, so that Yinhe Industry can mine here, and the specific mining period is determined according to the life of the space base in space, and the space base will be stored for one year, then Yinhe Industry can mine for three years. In this area, the existing oil and gas fields and mines, Russia must also transfer a part of the equity to Galaxy Industrial.

In addition, Russia will have to contribute another trillion Chinese dollars, together with the authority of mineral resources, as the cost of buying equity in the space base. Russia has won a ten-year term for this money, but this ten years is a mortgage loan, and it is necessary to pay additional benefits.

Galaxy Industry has been staring at Russia's natural resources for more than a day or two, and this time it finally took advantage of the east wind of the space base to gnaw off the hard bone of Russia. 500,000 square kilometers is not small, equivalent to the area of more than three Gongtian provinces. What's more, that piece of land was carefully calculated by Liu Shiqing using the information of the Galactic Federation, and the development process is not high now, but the underground mineral resources and oil and gas resources are quite rich. As long as the space base can operate normally in the sky for 20 years, then Liu Shiqing is sure enough to hollow out all the mineral resources, oil and gas resources in the 500,000 square kilometers, and let the future generations of Russia cry their noses.

The agreement between Britain and Galaxy Industrial Co., Ltd. is relatively simple, and Britain will acquire 8 percent of the equity of the space base in the form of mortgage payments at a price of 1 percent of the equity of the space base for every 550 billion Chinese dollars. Although Liu Shiqing has decided not to give face to the British, but looking at Princess Elizabeth's pink face and calling him "godfather" in a milky voice, Liu Shiqing's heart finally softened and gave the British a more favorable price.

However, the 4.4 trillion Chinese coins and their interest are also a considerable burden on the British, and if the British want to pay them off within 10 years, they also need to rack their brains, at least in the future, they must find ways to increase exports to China, otherwise, they will get so many Chinese coins from there.

Compared with Liu Shiqing's preferential treatment of the British, the Japanese were stabbed by Galaxy Industry, and Japan got 10% of the equity of the space base, and the price paid was 7 trillion Chinese dollars, plus 300 high-quality technicians. In any case, the Japanese are hardworking and capable, famous all over the world, and many people commit suicide from hard work, and they will not complain in the company.

Shahari in charge of the negotiations? Majadra originally wanted to ask more Japanese to come over, but later Liu Shiqing was worried that there were too many Japanese in Galaxy Industry and the influence of the Japanese was too great, so he personally finalized the quota of 300. Even so, Japanese employees have become a relatively large group of employees of Galaxy Industry, becoming the third largest group of foreign employees after Jews and Americans. Later, it surpassed the Americans and became the second largest group of foreign employees.

In addition, Australia, Canada, Brazil, South Korea, Israel and other countries have also obtained shares in the space base at different prices, and the combined equity of these countries is more than 10%.

As a result, there is not much equity left in the space base, only less than 51 percent, according to the original plan announced by Galaxy Industrial, 50 percent of the equity is not intended to be sold to the market, and will be held by Galaxy Industry and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission respectively.

At this time, the Americans suddenly realized that they seemed to be being swept away, and Galaxy Industry actually bypassed them and sold so much equity in the space base, leaving them little room for bargaining. The US delegation expressed its strong indignation and dissatisfaction with Yinhe Industrial, believing that such an act was irresponsible. The U.S. side demanded that Galaxy Industrial must immediately terminate the sale of its stake in the space base, otherwise, the U.S. side will take necessary measures.

Galaxy Industry happily accepted the request of the Americans, not that they were afraid of the Americans, but that the equity of the space base had been sold almost, and the countries that the world had the ability to sell and the countries that Galaxy Industry was willing to sell were basically involved, and the remaining countries, even if they wanted to buy, would not buy much in the end. What's more, the 49 percent of the slightly stronger equity sold has returned nearly 3 billion Huaxia yuan for Galaxy Industrial, not counting the annual interest generated by these funds, in addition to the natural resources mortgaged by Russia and the 300 high-quality talents in Japan.

It is not an exaggeration to say that in the business of the space base, Galaxy Industry made a lot of money, and became a fat man after eating it, and Galaxy Industry became much fatter because of it. If you eat too much, you will have indigestion, and Galaxy Industry also needs to slow down at this time, digest a part of it, and wait until a part of the stomach is freed up, and then continue to gnaw on the hard bone of the United States.

Thank you for the reward of "no longer indulge, I am a cloud in the sky, and the roots are red and seedlings", thank you V
