From the perspective of the Junma Group, the establishment of the industry association by the Junma Group is a standard cover-up, but so what, people with the right to speak will not make any comments on this, and people without the right to speak, even if they say anything, no one will care.
In just one month, the United States has added four more organizations like "trade associations," the communications industry, the electric power industry, the automobile industry, and the aviation industry, plus the arms industry, which has already been established for a long time, and it can be said that nearly a quarter of the existing industry associations in the United States are controlled by the Junma Group.
This has pros and cons, on the one hand, it is convenient for the management of the Junma Group, each industry association is a branch, the association headquarters is equivalent to the previous branch headquarters, all the business in the entire association depends on the distribution of the association headquarters, the Junma Group quietly, it controls four - no, it is five, five in the future vital industries.
In fact, there is another industry, if Li Mu is willing, Li Mu can also set up an industry association to control, that is, the emerging security service industry in the United States in recent years.
This security service industry is actually mercenaries, the existing mercenary companies in the United States, the largest are all under Li Mu's control, including the most popular Panamanian company, the oldest Bahamian company, and the strongest Far East company, these companies are under Li Mu's control, if Li Mu is willing, you can also set up a security service industry association to regulate the mercenary industry in the United States, but Li Mu did not do this, mercenaries are different from commodities, this industry is too destructive, The three major mercenary companies controlled by Li Mu, the smallest Panama company, also have more than 3,000 employees, this is a force that is enough to subvert the regime, Li Mu can't and doesn't dare to put these forces on the table, once he does that, it is asking for hardship, and even Arthur can't protect Li Mu.
Yes, although the Panama company is the most popular, but among the three major mercenary companies, the strength of the Panama company is the weakest, to be exact, even Washington is not clear now, how many mercenaries the Far East company controls, although the list of the Far East company is less than a thousand, but the Far East company is backed by Luzon and the Ryukyus, Japan, and can pull up tens of thousands of people at any time, 10,000 people, there is no edge, the size of the first cavalry division of the army is more than 10,000 points, if the Far East company puts all its strength on the table, Then Li Mu will immediately become the object of Washington's greatest attention.
The same is true of the Bahamian Company, which is still nominally under British control, but in the Bahamas, more than ninety percent of the islands have now been purchased by the Bahamian Company as Li Mu's private fiefdom.
Over the years, the Bahamian company's sphere of influence has been expanding, Cuba, Haiti, Panama, Dominica, Colombia, unconsciously, the Bahamian company's sphere of influence has spread to most of the Caribbean, as long as the Panama Canal is not navigable, then the Bahamian company's position in the Caribbean is unshakable.
Even if the Panama Canal is navigable, it will not shake the status of the Bahamas company, the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean are the two most important regions in the world, as long as the Bahamas company controls the outlet of the Panama Canal, then no one can ignore the existence of the Bahamas company, everyone knows that the corporate behavior in these years is actually the behavior of the state in many cases.
A large part of the reason why Li Mu is running rampant in Washington is because of these mercenary companies controlled by Li Mu.
The first basic principle of the Monroe Doctrine is to oppose European colonization in the Americas, and the second basic principle is to guarantee the independence of the Americas and not to interfere in European affairs.
Half a century ago, the United States decided to live its own life behind closed doors, not wanting to be interfered with by Europe, nor did it want to interfere in Europe, in fact, the United States included the whole of America in its sphere of influence, which is in line with the interests of the United States, but not in the interests of Europe, so for half a century, the United States has been fighting against Europe for the independence of the United States and even the whole of South America.
One of the biggest keys to the implementation of the Monroe Doctrine is that the current Americas, or South America, are basically under European colonial rule, so Washington shouts every day that "America is the America of the Americans", but because of the restrictions of the Monroe Doctrine, Washington cannot directly interfere in European colonization in the Americas.
At this time, the existence of mercenaries is very important, you must know that mercenaries have no nationality, so no matter how excessive the mercenaries are in South America, the United States does not have to bear any responsibility for this, doesn't Washington know how big the Bahamian company's sphere of influence in South America is?
They knew, but Washington's response was not restriction, but support, which gave Li Mu the greatest degree of freedom.
At the end of October, according to the original plan, Yan Shun took the cruiser "Enterprise" of the Pacific Fleet from San Francisco to the Far East via Hawaii, accompanied by three merchant ships of the Pacific Company, which were loaded with rifles and field artillery, and Yan Shun carried with him the business advice of the Far East Company to the Qing government, if the Qing government did not agree, then the next thing was war.
The so-called "business advice" is more appropriate to describe as "commercial blackmail", Li Mu did not want to do business with the Qing State, otherwise the merchant ship should not be loaded with weapons, but steak and red wine.
"Actually, this kind of thing, it is more appropriate to leave it to me to implement, you probably don't know how much I want to go to the Far East, I want to personally hand over the ultimatum to the Qing government, and then fire the first shell with my own hands, I want to personally drive those parasites back to their hometown, so that they will pay for the mistakes made by their ancestors." Li Mu's last sentence is Li Mu's true heart, and the rest is just for Arthur and Rockefeller, which has no meaning.
Although Li Mu knew that after the fall of the Qing Empire, the rulers of the Qing Kingdom had also paid the price for the mistakes made by their ancestors, but if Li Mu was allowed to come, Li Mu would definitely do more absolutely and thoroughly, so that Li Mu would not go through this world in vain.
In his previous life, when Li Mu was going to take the college entrance examination, there was a classmate who had a good relationship with Li Mu at that time, and because of the extra points in the college entrance examination, he changed his nationality to an ethnic minority.
Of course, Li Mu knows very well that his classmate who has a good relationship is a standard Han nationality, and the eight generations are all Han nationality, and he has nothing to do with ethnic minorities, but because of the extra points in the college entrance examination, Li Mu's classmate changed his nationality.
Sad?
Sad, of course!
Should it?
From Li Mu's point of view, it should be, even if Li Mu had a relationship at that time, Li Mu might choose to change, the general environment is like this, when an individual can't change the society, then he can only adapt to the society.
Before Yan Shun returned to the Qing Dynasty, the first problem that Li Mu warned Yan Shun was that it was absolutely forbidden to mention any slogans related to "nation", even if the mention of nationality would arouse the common hatred and hatred in the hearts of the Han people.
Yes, in Li Mu's plan, the Chinese in the future will not be divided into nationalities, whether they are herding sheep or farming, whether they live in the mountains or in the plains, whether they love to drink salted bean brain or sweet bean brain, all Chinese in the future can only have one nationality, that is, the Han nation, and any other statement can not be mentioned, and even those costumes, languages, writings, and traditional habits that are called national characteristics must also be completely unified without any room for change. Only a high degree of unity in customs, a high degree of unity in tradition, and a high degree of unity in culture can avoid all kinds of troubles in the future.
Of course, to carry out complete reunification, it will certainly provoke a certain degree of resistance, but this is not a reason to artificially divide the people into three, six, nine, and so on, and after Yan Shun returns to the Qing Dynasty, he does not need to work hard to win the support of ethnic minorities in order to resist the tyranny of the Qing government, and short-term disputes are inevitable, but if he insists on ten, twenty, or fifty years, then all disputes will disappear.
"No, no, No, Reem, you can ask Leo to go to Qingguo to do these things, but you can't, you have no position, you have no reason, don't forget that you are an American now." Before Arthur could speak, Rockefeller gave Li Mu a warning.
This warning came very timely, although Arthur is now the president, Washington can compromise Li Mu's behavior to the greatest extent, but this compromise is not bottomless, the Junma Group, Li Mu, and even the Junma Laboratory are too important, the United States cannot afford such a loss, and even a possible loss cannot afford it.
"Well, I'm ready to deal with the Qing Empire's ministers, how far do you want to go? Just doing business? I don't think so, so is it to overthrow the Qing government? How are you prepared to deal with the pressure from Europe? "Arthur's concern is more practical, for Li Mu, letting Yan Shun return to the Qing Kingdom is just a relatively big game to play, but the Qing Kingdom is not Cuba, nor Luzon, those European countries, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and even Russia, all have huge interests in the Qing Kingdom, if Yan Shun wants to overthrow the Qing government, then these pressures are the first problems that Li Mu has to solve.
"There is no pressure, Europe has interests in the Qing State, no one denies this, no matter what government replaces the Qing government in the future, then the interests of European countries in the Qing State will not be affected, the previous Qing government and Europe signed those treaties, the new government will also recognize, maybe it will be more thorough, what does it matter? For those European countries, or for us, it's just a change of partner, maybe this new partner will cooperate more thoroughly, better understand our requirements, and I can't think of a reason to interfere. "Li Mu didn't want to carry out a complete subversion, if he had gains, he would have to lose, and he would make up for the unbreakable truth.
Regarding the contracts signed by the Qing government with the foreign powers before, Li Mu really didn't intend to completely deny it, the rise of the country is definitely not smooth sailing, there are so many resources in the world, a certain country wants more, and other countries will definitely have less, another time and space republic has joined the WTO, and has to work hard to exchange shirts for planes, he has no ability to formulate the rules of the game, so he must follow the requirements of the rules of the game, as long as European countries do not interfere with Yan Shun, it is enough, Li Mu did not want to expect too much.
Interfering in this matter is also an issue that Li Mu has to consider.
During the Taiping Rebellion, Britain and France also had early contact with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom before deciding to help the Qing government exterminate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and it was these contacts that made the British and French understand that even if the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom overthrew the Qing government, it would not be possible to safeguard the interests of the British and French, which eventually led to the birth of the "Foreign Gun Team", and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was short-lived.
If Yan Shun formally erected the anti-flag, it can be determined that the British and French would also contact Yan Shun in advance, and Yan Shun's attitude was very important at this time, if they did not meet the requirements of the British and French, the British and French would get in the way, and even assist the Qing government to suppress Yan Shun's rebellion.
But if Yan Shun shows a certain degree of cooperation, and even Yan Shun's promise to the British and French is more favorable than the promise given by the Qing government, then the position of the British and the French is really hard to say, Standard Oil wants to open the Qing market is so difficult, British companies and French companies are the same, if Yan Shun promises to open the market to European countries, then Li Mu can be sure that even if European countries do not support Yan Shun, at least they will not help the Qing government.
That's enough, although the Qing government in this time and space did not experience the First Sino-Japanese War, did not experience the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and did not experience the failure of the Wuxu Reform, but don't think that those local governors are loyal to the little emperor in the capital of the Qing Dynasty, and people are not destroyed for themselves.
Don't be funny, the reason why the Qing government gave Zeng Shaved his head so many honors was because Zeng Shaved his head spared no effort in the process of exterminating the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the Qing government rewarded "loyalty", not "ability", which should be clarified.
"Reem, I don't pay attention to Qing Guo, I don't pay attention to Leo, I don't pay attention to Europe, I only pay attention to you, no matter what the circumstances, I hope Reem can remember that you are now an American, so you have to protect the interests of the United States, because the United States has given you everything now, I will say a few words, if you are still in Qing Guo, then no matter how good you are, you will not be able to achieve today's achievements." Arthur really looks like an American president now, don't look at Arthur who used to say that he would resign at every turn, but when it comes to a critical moment, Arthur still puts the interests of the United States first.
That's a rare thing.
