Chapter 479: The Reaction of European Countries

Mountbatten's wishful thinking was very good, but it is clear that the bill he proposed at the national affairs consultation meeting did not pass, because only 30% of the parliamentarians supported Mountbatten.

But Mountbatten was not depressed, on the contrary, he still looked like he was holding a pearl of wisdom.

"If you go to the notice, you will follow the manuscripts I wrote a few days ago, and let all the media under it report from tomorrow." Back at home, Mountbatten instructed the butler.

Although Mountbatten's knighthood is very high, the reason why he can have such a great political influence is entirely due to the few media under him.

The London Morning Post, in particular, is a newspaper that has a certain influence throughout Europe.

Mountbatten believed that as long as he disclosed the relevant things, the balance of victory would definitely tilt in his favor. In the next election for the prime minister, it is not certain that he may win by an absolute margin.

The fifteenth year of Tai'an is the year of the election of the prime minister of England, and it is for this reason that Mountbatten will throw out the view of the threat theory of the Great Zhou at such an opportune time.

As a result, early the next morning, several media outlets in England began to appear in the words related to the threat theory of the Great Zhou.

London Morning Post: According to the statistics of the Royal Academy of Sciences, the trade deficit between the British Empire and the Great Zhou was as high as 30 million taels of silver in the past year......

Times Evening News: At yesterday's national affairs consultation, the Speaker of the House of Lords, Count Mountbatten, revealed that the gross national product of the Great Zhou accounts for 40 percent of the world's gross national product, which is equivalent to the entire European ......

England Daily: Great Zhou goods flood the domestic market of the British Empire, accounting for more than 10% of the market share......

Daily Mail: Watson, a famous doctor of economics, revealed yesterday that because of the trade deficit, European countries sent 10,000 taels of silver to Da Zhou last year......

……

There are all kinds of media, and the media is full of reports on the trade relations between Da Zhou and European countries.

At first, the masses didn't care about this, thinking that it was just writing false news, but as more and more media reported it, detailed data was disclosed, and the masses had to believe this fact.

Even, under the organization of some people who did not dare to show their true faces, there were several mass demonstrations in England.

This is not the end, with the British media taking the lead in disclosing it, the media in other European countries have also begun to follow up and report articles on the relationship between Da Zhou and Europe.

Even, the Rheinland Zeitung pointed out sharply that Europe has become a dumping ground for commodities and a place for wealth plundering in the Great Zhou.

This can be described as a stone that has set off a thousand waves, and governments can no longer continue to be calm.

In Paris, Louis XVIII convened a special consultation meeting, at which in addition to high-level government officials, experts and scholars in economics from all over the country were also included.

Wallace, dean of the School of Economics at the University of Paris and a well-known French economist, publicly pointed out: "I have seen a lot of reports on the relationship between the Great Week and Europe in various countries, and on the whole, what is reported in the media is the truth.

And through my own research, I found that if this situation is allowed to continue to spread, in the next 10 to 20 years, the GDP of the Great Zhou will account for more than half of the world's GDP.

Moreover, in the next five to ten years, Da Zhou's exports will account for more than 20 percent of the entire European market share.

This is only a conservative estimate, and it is only a study in the field of economics.

I can't judge whether or not this situation will have an impact on Europe's politics and military, and how much it will affect if this situation is allowed to spread. ”

"I agree with Lord Wallace!" Another high-ranking government member stood up for Wallace, saying, "In the last year, the French Empire's trade deficit with the Great Zhou was as high as 10 million gold francs. It is believed that with the retirement of time, this gap will become larger and wider. And the French Empire is different from England because we don't have that many colonies.

The report of the Ministry of Finance at the end of last year made it clear that we had mined a total of eight million gold francs worth of gold and silver from the colonies in one year.

This also means that since last year, China's gold and silver have begun to flow out on a large scale, and the destination is Dazhou. If this situation is allowed to continue to spread, our country will become a de facto colony of the Great Zhou......"

Of course, there are those who attack Da Zhou, and naturally there are those who support Da Zhou.

The mayor of Paris said: "You may have a good point, but I would like to make it clear that three years ago our GDP accounted for 13 per cent of the world's GDP, and this year we have 16 per cent of the world's GDP.

I believe that anyone who is not blind can see why the GDP has risen so fast, mainly thanks to the trade ...... with Da Zhou."

"But the economy of Da Zhou is growing faster!" "Three years ago, the Great Zhou accounted for only 35 percent of the world's gross national product, but now it accounts for more than 40 percent.

At this rate of development, it is only a matter of time before the Great Zhou economy crushes the whole of Europe......"

"But there is no conflict of interest between my country and Da Zhou!"

"Yes! In fact, there is an economic conflict of interest between China and the Great Zhou. And even over time, this conflict will grow bigger. ”

Louis XVIII was momentarily silent.

He didn't know what to say, and even began to feel a little dazed in his heart: "Could it be that all the decisions I made before were wrong?" ”

Seeing the hesitant look on Louis XVIII's face, Wallace said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, it's time to make a decision, now that Da Zhou has become the economic hegemon of the world."

If our government does not stop it, then in other aspects, the Great Zhou will also become a hegemon-level existence. ”

"That's where England should have a headache!" The mayor of Paris sneered, "England has not yet made a move, so why should our country strike first?" ”

"Let's look at the attitude of England first!" Although Louis XVIII did not make a final decision, it was clear that his attitude was still more on Wallace's side.

Not only in France, but also in Italy, in Rus', in Austria, in Prussia...... Basically all European countries are looking at the policy of the week.

But because England and France, the two hegemon-level countries, did not express their position, no one dared to stand up against Da Zhou first, so it kept dragging on.

"Looks like there's going to be another match!" In the city of London, after Mountbatten received news from various European countries, he decided to once again contribute to the trouble.

So early the next morning, an article appeared in the London Morning Post: Is the British Empire ready for threats from all sides of the Great Zhou?
