"Minister Chang, the relevant departments have detected that Mr. Lin Qing is on a video call, please ask if you want to eavesdrop on the call records!" An adjutant walked up to Chang Wanquan's side and asked softly.
Chang Wanquan thought for a while and asked, "Is the other party confidential?" ”
"The other party made a confidential call, and we are preparing to decipher!"
"No need to decipher, he should be in contact with Palawan, leave them alone! Let's keep the meeting going! After speaking, he sent the sorted out information in his hand to the people around him.
"Take a look at the information, this is the loan information provided by Lin Qing, and the other is about the assistance to the Palawan Railway Project, and someone from the Railway Bureau, the Construction Bureau, and the Secretariat will come over, everyone is ready!"
After speaking, he handed the information that Lin Qing had proposed before to everyone present.
In fact, Lin Qing and Chang Wanquan have talked about the same in the big picture, but many of the interests between countries are argued from some details.
Maybe for China, Palawan's profit is not a big profit, after all, China's GDP is already over one trillion, but there is no trivial matter in the country, hundreds of millions of dollars, what should be fought for cannot be directly given up, and Chang Wanquan knows in his heart that China still has a lot of room to fight for on the Palawan issue.
After about half an hour, the conference room was full of people, including the heads of several departments, and a secretary to the secretariat of the number one head.
Minister Chang stood up first: "Everyone has already read the information in everyone's hands, so let me let you introduce it." ”
After speaking, Chang Wanquan walked to the front of the PPT, holding a long stick in his hand: "Palawan, originally subordinate to the Philippines, became independent from the Philippines in May this year, established a democratic and free republic, and implemented a presidential system. ”
"The country is not very large, with only three million people, and the latest population data has not been updated, but it is certain that the population does not exceed four million."
"The land area of this country is not as large as Taiwan, but the strategic location is not inferior to Taiwan at all, this country is close to the South China Sea, and it used to be a key point in the first island chain of the United States to our country!"
"According to the intelligence of our relevant departments, the actual person in power in Palawan is not the president of their country, but Lin Qing!"
After speaking, a photo of Lin Qing appeared in the PPT, the photo should have been taken in Beijing, and Lin Qing himself didn't know.
"I won't say much about Lin Qing's personal information, all of us have it in our hands, we can be sure that this Mr. Lin Qing, although he is not a Chinese national, but like many overseas Chinese, he has a patriotic heart, there is no doubt about this, the issue we are discussing today is the details of the assistance to several places in Palawan, one of which is about the loan of five destroyers."
"Of course, if it's just this question, it's not worth spending so much time, in the first formal negotiation between me and Lin Qing just now, Mr. Lin Qing proposed something that interests me very much, I think you are very interested, he wants to build a railway around the island in Palawan."
After finishing speaking, Chang Wanquan sat back in his place, and the last picture on the PPT is a map of China's maritime boundaries in the South China Sea, which is at the end of the South China Sea, obviously bordering Palawan's territorial waters.
"Minister Chang, how can you be sure of this Mr. Lin Qing's attitude towards our country?" One of the officials of the People's Bank asked first.
Minister Chang looked at everyone: "This question does not need to be answered, it involves some confidentiality issues, but I can tell you for sure that this Mr. Lin Qing's contribution to the country is beyond your imagination." Next question. ”
"Minister Chang, I have read the information you provided, in terms of the loan treaty above, I think there is obviously a problem with the contract provided by Lin Qing, after analysis by our expert group, there will be an economic crisis in Europe in the eyes of the past two years, if we agree to this condition and repay the loan according to the exchange rate, we have come to the conclusion that we will lose about 2 billion yuan!"
A domestic economic expert simply looked at the information in his hand and came up with a similar figure, which was not much different from what Lin Qing expected.
In fact, there are still a lot of capable people in China, and every time a global economic crisis breaks out, China will always be the least affected, partly because these economic experts predicted the economic crisis in advance and carried out a series of risk aversion.
This has something to do with the system, in the United States, even if the government finds out that there will be an economic crisis, but it will only rule some consortia, so the public will be more seriously affected and will cause serious social problems, which is fundamentally different from the Chinese government, which is for the service of consortia.
Chang Wanquan looked at the information in his hand and gasped, fortunately he didn't agree just now, he didn't see it, Lin Qing just changed the content of the treaty slightly, and the difference between them was so big, when he gave this plan before, he also asked some economists.
If he were to lend money to Palawan without interest and repay it with ore, economists told him, doing so would make China earn more than 50 percent more profit out of thin air.
"Well, I want you to share your thoughts on this issue!"
"Minister Chang, in fact, the way to solve this problem is very simple, only need to change a few words, the exchange rate does not change with international changes, but uses the current fixed exchange rate, or we can find a balance point in the middle, as for how much exchange rate, we need to calculate this, and then put it forward in the next negotiation!"
Minister Chang nodded: "I'll leave this question to you." You are experts in this area, and we will not interfere. ”
Several economists nodded and stopped talking, this meeting was held to discuss the issue, and now that the issue is over, now they just have to listen.
"The next one is about the construction of the railway in Palawan, this project is a big project, according to the information we currently have, Palawan does not have a qualified steel factory, most of the steel needs to rely on imports, even a kitchen knife can not be produced, if we can win this order, it will be of great help to the economic construction of our country, all I want to listen to the opinions of experts in this industry!"
Minister Chang spoke slowly, this is the highlight of this meeting, and the front is just an appetizer.
