Chapter 191 Equal Treaties
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Lowry finally met with visiting President Kevin and more than a dozen foreign ministers of the European Union in the welcome hall.
In order to welcome these distinguished guests, a group of leaders of the central government held a high-level welcome ceremony.
On the bright red carpet, Rory accompanied a group of bigwigs, smiling and shaking hands with the foreigners who came to visit.
The short welcome ceremony ended in about ten minutes, and things got on track, dozens of single sofas, and domestic and foreign bigwigs sat down with smiles.
President Kevin saw Rory's true face for the first time, and he couldn't help but stare at Rory carefully, this young man who looked only 1.8 meters and was not very burly was not very attractive in the eyes of Americans.
But it is this guy who is inconspicuous in the eyes of the Americans, who has energy that surpasses everything. In terms of popularity, only the late American superstar Michael Jackson can compare with the popularity of the late American superstar in the world.
The supreme leader saw that the relationship between Rory and President Kevin was a little tense, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, don't you want to negotiate business with Huarui Company?" Please get started! Lowry, the United States and the European Union are here in good faith. You want to treat them like guests. ”
Rory smiled and nodded.
President Kevin was the first to break the deadlock, and he smiled awkwardly at Rory: "Hello, Mr. Rory, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Luo Rui was calm as usual: "Your Excellency, I heard that you came to visit to cause our Huarui company's 'smoking cessation spirit' and some other technologies, right?" ”
"Yes, Mr. Lowry, we in the United States hope to get those technologies, and we have always wanted to be friends with Huaxia."
"Your Excellency. I'm a businessman, I don't like to beat around the bush, let's just talk about the terms. ”
"Oh! That's exactly how we Americans like it. Mr. Lowry. First of all, I apologize to you on behalf of the United States. Please forgive us for making mistakes in the past, and we shouldn't sanction you. Please understand why we do that, as president, I have to put the interests of the United States first, and if I allow quits to enter the United States, it will put millions of tobacco farmers out of work. It's not just me, no president in history can afford that kind of consequences. Therefore, we have a hard time sanctioning your Huarui Company and prohibiting smoking cessation spirits from entering the United States. ”
"Well, Your Excellency, I understand your struggles. I've heard that you want our Huarui company to export the technology of 'Smoking Cessation Spirit' to you, right? ”
"Yes, Mr. Lowry, if you are willing to cooperate. After we produce Smoking Cessation Spirit, we will only use it to help drug addicts get rid of drugs, so that. We don't impact the tobacco industry, we can save the lives of millions of drug addicts, and the U.S. doesn't lose up to $45 billion a year in tobacco tax revenues, which is very important to the U.S. In return, if you are willing to transfer the technology of 'Quit' to China, we will support Huarui with a patent fee of $400 for every bottle of Quit-Smoking produced. In addition, we agreed to support the Huaxia government on the issue of Nanhai Zhudao. Because you are our friends. ”
Rory laughed: "Your Excellency, President." Money isn't really very important to me. I'm going to develop the technology at Lowry. There are too many to count, and it is not impossible to transfer the technology of Smoking Cessation to you. As long as you agree to use the trademark of 'Huarui Company' for the brand of Smoking Cessation Ling, I am willing to transfer the technology to you. ”
President Kevin was a little surprised: "Mr. Lowry, why do you insist on using the 'Huarui trademark'!" ”
Rory wanted to say it was for prestige, but held back: "If you agree, you can cooperate." ”
Next to President Kevin, Secretary of State Bob was so excited that he almost danced with his hands, and he touched President Kevin hard.
After Kevin got the hint, he immediately nodded: "Okay, Rory, I agree to your request." Mr. Lowry, you should know that our U.S. stock market has fallen very badly. The main reason for this is not that your smoking cessation spirit has dealt a blow to our tobacco industry. Another major factor is because of the impact of Apple, HP, IMB, and other computer and mobile phone industries, under the impact of Huaxia mobile phones and computers, sales declined, and the chain reaction brought about by the collective decline of the technology sector of our stock market, and finally, affected the market. If Huarui can help us solve this problem, we will support Huaxia to own the Diaoyu Islands. ”
Luo Rui smiled: "Your Excellency President, do you mean that if I don't provide you with the technical information of the 'Super Alloy', you will help Japan and support them to own the Diaoyu Islands?" ”
Lowry's rhetorical question caught President Kevin a little off guard, and he smiled awkwardly: "That's not going to happen, we have always held no position on the Diaoyu Islands issue." If your country can help us solve the problem. The United States should help you solve your troubles. ”
Luo Rui sneered: "Your Excellency, even if you support that the Diaoyu Islands belong to Japan, I'm afraid they don't have the courage to rob us now, and you won't help Japan." ”
President Kevin was choked by Lowry: "This ...... Although this super fighter of your country is very powerful, if it uses force, Japan will not even have the strength to fight back. However, force is not the best way to solve problems. Peace is not easy to come by, and the issue of sovereignty can be negotiated without the use of force, which is the best. ”
"Mr. Lowry, the world economy is integrated. Many of your Chinese products need to be exported to the European and American markets, and if our economy is affected, your country's exports will also be affected. If we cooperate, we can develop together and achieve a win-win situation. ”
Luo Rui smiled: "We have an ancient saying in China, 'Master Yi is good at controlling Yi', which means that I have taught you all the techniques, what if you use the techniques I taught you to attack us in the future?" Super alloy, can improve the performance of all metals, after you get it, you can easily build super engines, you United States is the world's number one military power. What if you also build a super engine, armed and against our country? ”
"Lowry, the military power of the United States has always been used to maintain world peace, and we will not invade any country."
"Your Excellency, aren't the presidents of Iraq and Libya all killed by you Americans? You've even killed the president. I dare to say that I did not invade other countries. ”
Lowry's words made President Kevin almost furious, and if the Chinese government or officials spoke like this, the United States could use it to make a fuss. It's just that the identity of this guy is a common man, so President Kevin can't find a place to scold if he wants to.
Blushing. President Kevin held back his anger: "Mr. Lowry, the United States is doing this for the sake of world peace. We're dealing with dictators and terrorists, and that's not an invasion, and that's what the previous president did, and I'm peace-loving. ”
"Well, Your Excellency, answer my question. If I provide you with the technical information of the 'Super Alloy', will you develop military strength in the future, will you come against us? ”
"No, absolutely not, no American wants to go to war with China, even if Hitler is resurrected, he will not be stupid enough to do that."
"That maybe, Your Excellency. Super alloy is not only a super material, but also a strategic resource, if shared with everyone. It will make our country feel uneasy. If the United States promises never to use military force against our country, I am willing to share the technology of superalloys! ”
President Kevin grimaced: "This ...... The stakes are too significant, this kind of strategic cooperation thing. It needs to be passed by Congress to be effective. As president, I can't sign such an agreement. ”
Luo Rui sneered and stood up: "Your Excellency, friends, do not hurt each other, this is the most basic principle. If you get the superalloy and then develop the military power against us, won't I become a sinner of the country, and you give me a reason, why should I give you the technology? ”
President Kevin was so anxious that his forehead sweated. It has super alloys, mobile phones, computers, automobiles, and aviation industries in the United States. will not be threatened by Huaxia. This will also fundamentally reverse the decadent stock market and restore confidence in the stock market. But the conditions proposed by Lowry. It's too harsh.
The United States has always regarded China as the most powerful adversary in the 21 st century, and in order to stop China's power, the United States has pulled one-third of its navy to Asia. It is precisely by using military force to engage in a common defense that the United States has stabilized its two allies, Japan and South Korea.
Once the United States agrees not to use military force against the Chinese army, it means that the United States will not help any Asian country in the future in the event of a war with China. This will certainly chill South Korea and Japan, and the United States is likely to lose two allies as a result.
But if you don't promise Rory, you can't get Super Alloy, and you can't solve the economic problem with just a quit smoking spirit.
President Kevin was so anxious that a blue smoke appeared on his forehead: "Mr. Lowry, I will contact Congress first, discuss your conditions with the congressmen, if Congress agrees, I can sign a peace treaty with you, if not, I can't do anything." ”
"Okay. Your Excellency, I will wait for your reply. President Kevin rushed out of the crowd and entered Air Force One to secretly liaise with Congress to discuss what Rory said.
Rory laughed: "European friends, if you are willing to support our country in all aspects, we can sign some contracts first." ”
"Mr. Luo Rui, you are really a generous and good person, and we are willing to support Huaxia in all aspects."
Britain, Germany, France, the three old empires have long had no ambition to dominate the world, as for the encirclement of China, the suspension of China, it is not good for them, the three countries even hope that China can be on the world stage, balance the influence of the United States, the current foreign ministers and ministers of the three countries, and other countries in the European Union, have abandoned the United States, preemptively signed a contract with China.
The contract that Lowry proposes is actually quite simple.
Article 1: All countries must abandon trade protectionism, open their markets fairly, and cannot prevent Chinese products from entering the markets of various countries.
Article 2: For the sake of friendship, all countries are requested to recognize that the sovereignty of all disputed islands in China belongs to China in the face of conclusive evidence.
Article 3: For the sake of world friendliness. All countries must sign a treaty with China that no country can use force to interfere with other countries without infringing on the sovereignty of both sides.
On the face of it, there is nothing wrong with Lowry's three proposals, and even the third seems reasonable. Between China and Europe, separated by one Russia, it is impossible to infringe on each other's sovereignty. The only potential condition is to tell the EU not to support Japan and South Korea on Asian issues.
There are no obstacles for the EU to conclude such a contract. With the exception of the United States, no other country cares about the treaty.
At that moment, more than a dozen foreign ministers discussed with domestic heads of state and parliamentarians, and they signed contracts that had been prepared for a long time. (To be continued)
