Chapter Twenty-Four: Domestic and Foreign Capital, Sharp Contrast!
Oceania, Cabinet, Foreign Trade Institute.
The young Dean Shelley looked at the financial statements in his hand and was ecstatic.
As a result of his "wise" decision to raise tariffs, Oceania's tax revenues hit a record high!
"Dean, you're so smart! In the first half of this year, our Institute of Foreign Trade was able to achieve such an achievement, all thanks to your proposal! β
You's good sycophants smiled and complimented.
"Heh, fortunately, I didn't believe that old stubborn, he even thought about lowering tariffs at the beginning!"
"Looking at it now, it's extremely stupid, after my operation, the profits of our people in the Oceanic Kingdom have directly doubled!"
Shelley picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, full of ambition.
β¦β¦
It is not only the Oceanic countries that have gained a lot, but also the capitalists of their countries who have traded with Xia on the Eurasian road.
On the top floor of the Makar Hotel, the top wealthy from all over the world gathered.
A certain oligarch in the electromechanical industry in Eagle Country elegantly picked up a steak: "Xia Guo is really stupid and has a lot of money, and it's too easy to make their money!" β
A tycoon in the plant industry in Gaul replied with a smile: "No, this money is as easy as drinking water!" β
A good big brother in the German iron and steel industry stood up to this, and deliberately showed an unhappy expression on his face: "Shhh What are you talking nonsense here! Is it easy to meet a fool these days?! You heard it from others, who will send money to me if you don't do business with us? β
"Hahaha, my brother is right!"
The plutocrats raised their goblets and clinked glasses to celebrate their blood gains.
β¦β¦
Xia Guo, Dingsheng Hotel.
A number of well-known entrepreneurs such as the big and small two horses and the big and small two kings sat around the dining table and discussed the situation of this procurement.
"In response to the call of the state, I sold four percent of the shares of my Alibaba Group in my personal name, plus the cash in stock of Baba in my hand, a total of 34 billion yuan, which has been used to buy foreign daily necessities!"
The pony is smiling and excited.
Under normal circumstances, the sale of shares dilutes his equity share, which in disguise weakens his voice in the group, but after the completion of this sell-off, the prestige of the pony group has increased instead of decreasing.
The employees of Alibaba Group applauded, glad that they had followed the right person and had such a responsible boss.
Not to be outdone, Malaysia said: "Our Tengfei Group directly spent 40 billion meters to acquire core technologies from some foreign high-tech companies, and I have donated them to the country impermanently!" β
The king is an old Versailles: "It's a pity, we don't have two bosses so courageous, so we sent some people to support the construction of the country and provided some building materials for free." β
"It doesn't seem to add up to much money, it's a ...... of 100 billion"
The others silently closed their mouths: You guys are doing this, how can we, who have only donated billions, be embarrassed to speak......
Foreign capitalists are full of money and think about how to get drunk and dream of death.
Domestic entrepreneurs are full of thoughts on how to contribute to the country and how to help the people live better.
In contrast, the judgment is made from the top.
β¦β¦
"Your Excellency, according to the latest report, the tariff increases, economic blockades and other means we used before have caused very little trouble to the Xia Kingdom......
"Now that Xia has directly cut off trade with other countries and has become a closed economy, even we can't help them......"
"Not only that, an unknown energy supply machine has appeared in the territory of Xia Kingdom, according to satellite and spy observations, it seems to be some kind of secret new machine in Xia Kingdom."
Xiao Peng walked into the president's office and bowed slightly.
Things have evolved to this point, even the United States doesn't want to see it. They just wanted to suppress the Xia Kingdom, and they didn't really want to lock the country off again, after all, the trade between the two countries was close, and if it was cut off, the losses on both sides would be huge.
βshitοΌ fuckοΌ β
"Damn, what is the beginning that this eastern country has secretly begun to break through the suppression of our rice empire?"
Of course he is not convinced, the world order has always been the same as that of the United States, where is the turn of other countries to provoke and resist?
But now Xia Guo's disobedience to the command has made Brother Mi, who is used to being the first leader, unhappy!
"I thought that this country was only a preliminary threat to our position, but I didn't expect it...... Before we knew it, he already had the strength to compete with us?! β
"Cut off trade? Tearing your face? Do you really want to compare with us? I don't believe it, I can't cure you if I make a killing move?! β
Xia Guo's recent successive actions have made the capital giant of Mi Guo have a huge sense of crisis, and they have decided to take some special measures.
Xiao Pu's eyes showed a hint of ruthlessness: "Contact the bigwigs of the military and political departments and the members of the Senate, and convene the Congress immediately!" Let's talk about Xia! β
The United States adopts a system of separation of powers, and although Xiaopu nominally has the command power of the army, if he really wants to mobilize the army, he still has to go to the National Assembly for approval.

Xia Guo, Institute of Nuclear Physics.
Due to the advanced experimental equipment of the Institute of Nuclear Physics, special research groups in several major fields have concentrated their study and work here these days to work together to develop new concept weapons.
All other plans are progressing rapidly, but after the "new concept weapon" plan has been laid out, there has been no news at all.
Seeing that the Storm Mecha is about to be assembled, wouldn't it be a pity if you don't have a decent weapon in your hand?
So today, Chu Yao rushed to the research institute to understand the progress.
"Person in charge......
"Sorry, we're holding you back......"
"Laser cannon, electromagnetic cannon, according to your requirements in charge, we have given a set of mature operation plans."
"The laser cannon black cut I generation and the electromagnetic cannon dawn I generation have passed the test, and the detailed data and performance parameters are here, please take a look."
As he spoke, Zhou Qiqun, head of the electromagnetic physics special research group, reported a report and handed it to Chu Yao.
He continued: "But we are making very slow progress on the plasma cannon at the moment......
"In particular, some core technical issues still need to be resolved......
Speaking of this, Zhou Liqun's voice gradually weakened. Not only him, but several other experts who accompanied him hung their heads.
Laser cannons and electromagnetic cannons have been successfully developed before this, and the people in the special research group have only selected a few excellent varieties to improve slightly.
The plasma cannon had only been proposed before this, and in fact, there was no real finished product.
In other words, the experts of the special research group in this area of the new concept weapons program have not made real and effective results......
Chu Yao looked at the report in his hand and listened to the report of team leader Zhou Liqun.
