Volume 13 The Moral Struggle Chapter 52 Robbery While the Fire is Burning

On the old day of the month, Yan Jingyu held the last central ceremony before visiting Europe. [No pop-up novel network]

As with the quiet situation before the previous visit to Yuzu Country, Yan Jingyu had to arrange domestic work in advance. Although after the political reform, there will be no power vacuum when Yuan is not in the country, and the state leadership of the republic will be temporarily held by other leaders, as provided for in the constitutional amendments. More importantly, in the face of modern communication technology, there is no situation in which a leader cannot control the domestic situation after visiting another country, so there is nothing to worry about. But in the republic, especially in the absence of a solid foundation for the country's leadership. It is very necessary to arrange domestic work well, even Ji Youguo and Wang Yuanqing back then, they will not be careless about domestic issues that are related to power.

Of course, at this meeting, Yan Jingyu and Yan Shanglong both mentioned the US Secretary of State's urgent visit to France, Germany, Italy, and other major EU member states, and analyzed the situation.

As an accompanying visitor, Pei Chengyi also attended the meeting.

In fact, Pei Chengyi is not only an accompanying visitor, but also undertakes a very important diplomatic mission. Because Yan Jingyu will discuss military cooperation with the leaders of France, Germany, and Italy in Paris, Pailin, Rome and other places, and may even reach an agreement of intent with France, Germany and Italy during this period, Yan Jingyu is not a national leader who is proficient in military affairs, so he needs to be responsible for negotiation and consultation by a foil. In other words, Bae Seung-yi will make full use of his dual status as an army general and defense minister, as well as his international prestige, to express the sincerity of the republic. More importantly, in the high-level of the republic, Pei Chengyi has always actively advocated cooperation with the European Union, by co-opting the European Union to balance the United States, to achieve the goal of splitting the Western world, so that the republic can replace the United States at the lowest cost and become the global frost master. In this way, Pei Chengyi naturally has to make a positive contribution to diplomatic exchanges with the EU.

Fortunately, Pei Chengyi is not just a soldier. And it's not just politicians who come from the military. The new address of this site has been changed to: Talk about the fetal o muscle Gong Shan, please read in vain!

Because before entering politics, he commanded several foreign wars, had close contacts with the armies of many countries and the central government, worked in Pakistan for several years, and even helped Argentina in an informal capacity, so no one doubts Pei's ability to handle foreign affairs. As the saying goes! A long-term illness becomes a doctor. I have a lot of dealings with foreign-related issues, and even if I am not a diplomat and have not systematically studied diplomatic knowledge, I will understand diplomacy. In fact, long before the war in India, that is, under the influence of the second military reform. Before going to Pakistan to serve as a military adviser abroad, Pei Chengyi, with the support of Xiang Linghui, chief of the General Staff, studied for three months in a diplomatic general knowledge course jointly organized by the National Defense University and the Foreign Affairs College, and mastered the necessary diplomatic knowledge.

All in all, on the day of entry into the central government. Pei Chengyi has the ability to stand alone.

During his seven years as Minister of National Defense, Pei Chengyi also participated in a lot of foreign-related work. To know. Beginning with him, all arms trade in the republic was allowed to involve national security without the approval of the Ministry of Defense. In other words, the power previously held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce and Trade has returned to the hands of the Ministry of Defence. Of course. This can be regarded as "returning things to their original owners". Although the arms trade between sovereign countries belongs to the category of trade, and only when foreign aid and secret exchanges are involved, should the Ministry of National Defense, which has the main military intelligence resources, intervene, but in any big country, especially one that has mastered sophisticated military technology, the arms trade is absolutely related to national defense. For example, in the United States. If any arms company wants to sell weapons and equipment to other countries, it must first compare it with the permission list of the Ministry of Defense, and obtain the support of the Ministry of Defense, and then submit it to the State Department and Congress, if not even the Pentagon. There's no need to bother the members of Congress.

Through these works, Pei Chengyi became more familiar with foreign work related to national defense and security.

The problem is that for Pei Chengyi, this trip to Europe will certainly not be easy.

Although before the announcement that Yan Jingyu would visit the EU and participate in the seminar, Pei Chengyi knew that the United States would take positive action. In fact, the Yuan government dragged on until the old month because it didn't want to give the US authorities too much time to prepare. But after the U.S. secretary of state went to Paris, Pirin and Rome, Pei Chengyi must have had much more trouble in these three places.

On the same day, the Military Intelligence Agency sent information that the US Secretary of State was meeting and holding talks with the French president in Paris.

Pei Chengyi didn't care about how the CIA obtained this information, he just needed to know. The accuracy of the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency is above the highest level, and the Military Intelligence Agency has not made any serious mistake on a major issue that has a bearing on the fundamental interests of the country. In other words, Pei Chengyi has no reason to doubt that if the information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency is really the case, then the first stop of the European trip will be a big trouble, because the US Secretary of State has already made a commitment in Paris that as long as France can leave a place for the United States in the collective security framework of the European Union as proposed by the United States two years ago, and recognize that the United States is still the main guarantee of European strategic security, the United States will carry out more in-depth technical cooperation with France and provide many key technologies, including the production process of gate-level composite batteries. What's more, the U.S. Secretary of State also hinted at the French president that the U.S. has made a breakthrough in the production process of the old composite battery. And will consider sharing this technology with European allies. In other words, the United States has not only fished for the appetite of the old mouth. Mai made France even more greedy 6 There is no doubt that the assurances of the US Secretary of State are largely unreliable.

As mentioned earlier, the development of science and technology in the United States has both government and non-governmental elements. More importantly, in the U.S. state system, the government is nothing more than an enterprise elected by all citizens to manage the state and society, so the government cannot break the law, let alone trample other enterprises under its feet.

In fact, U.S. federal politician Chiang has never had much authority on domestic issues.

Take the financial system, as early as the end of the Semitic century. The American financiers represented by Morgan forced the U.S. federal government to surrender the coinage rights through the economic crisis, and made the glorious history of U.S. investment banks. Although after that, several U.S. presidents tried in vain to take back the coinage, that is, the Federal Reserve Bank was returned to the country, and the federal government would act and guarantee the dollar, but almost none of these U.S. presidents came to a good end, among which the more typical ones were Kennedy and Clinton, one was assassinated. The other one got a bad reputation.

In key technologies that are related to the fundamental interests of the country, especially the fundamental interests of many large enterprises. It is also American corporations that are really playing a leading role, especially the interest groups with corporate backgrounds. And not the federal government. In this way, even if the US Secretary of State makes more assurances in Paris, even if these assurances are affirmed in the form of legislation, as long as they ultimately violate the interests of the United States, or if they are lost, they will not harm the interests of the United States, and American companies can re-enact or repeal the legislation.

It's not that the United States hasn't done it, but it often does. For example, before the Gulf War in the era of the United States, the United States promised that all its allies would have the opportunity to share in the benefits of defeating Iraq and helping Kuwait recover, and this was the main motivation for other countries to send troops. But in the end, in order to prevent other countries from sharing the fruits of the war, the United States did not overthrow the Saddam regime in one go, but waited for more than 10 years. The second war sent Saddam Hussein to the gallows, and none of the many European countries that contributed money and troops during the Gulf War were able to reap the benefits.

The so-called suffering a loss and growing wisdom is not that France has not suffered losses, but has suffered many losses.

Any politician with a normal IQ should know. The U.S. guarantees don't count, and the U.S. is the best at juggling things in the world.

The problem is that the French president attaches great importance to the proposal of the US Secretary of State and has expressed cooperation

Toward. The new address of this site has been changed to: Talk about the fetus o waki, please read in vain!

In fact, that's the key.

As an intelligence agency, the MIA never mentions any subjective opinion in intelligence documents submitted to government officials, especially senior officials. Even at certain times, when an official with ties to the military intelligence agency, such as Pei Chengyi, asks the military intelligence agency to make recommendations or opinions in intelligence reports, Liu Xiaobin will be very careful not to make overly sharp and obviously biased suggestions.

It can be said that in terms of maintaining objectivity and fairness, Liu Xiaobin and Li Cunxun are exactly the same.

As a result, Liu Xiaobin appears very careful in the wording of the report, such as when referring to the French president's answer to the US secretary of state's proposal. He used the ambiguous word "interested". Although there is also a definite sentence in front. But the word itself indicates that the French president did not take the advice of the US Secretary of State.

To be precise, the French president does not intend to take the advice of the US Secretary of State.

There is no doubt that the idea of the French president is very direct, which is to use the United States as a counterweight to the republic, to force the republican to make greater guarantees in Paris, and to come up with something substantial, not just a word. In other words, until then, France has no choice. Whether or not to provide technology is a matter for the Republic and the United States to decide.

Because the Republic and the United States have always considered the EU to be a long-term threat, they have taken a very consistent attitude towards technological exports. It can even be said that the Republic and the United States are actively promoting comprehensive nuclear disarmament and are putting pressure on almost all countries. Making the London Treaty a binding international disarmament treaty has a lot to do with suppressing the EU. You know, with the entry into force of the treaty, as the only nuclear state in the European Union. France's international community will plummet, and it will be even less able to unite the rest of the EU member states and make it impossible to integrate the EU.

With the Republic gathering the signal to break the deadlock, France finally got the option.

Even if this is only an illusion, because the French authorities cannot pin their hopes on the United States. The French government also wants to use the influence of the United States to reap greater benefits. In fact, even if the United States is willing and able to provide France with advanced technology, the French authorities must also consider whether it is necessary to import these advanced technologies from the United States. Let's still take the all-important composite battery. Even if the United States is willing to sell the production process of mouth-grade composite batteries to France and help French companies master it, the Republic will be able to make the huge investment of French companies in vain by launching the old composite batteries in advance. You know, just before the knife, when the scale of the Great Depression was at its peak, the Republic quickly occupied the high-end electric industry by putting the 8-level composite battery into the international market in advance, and became a high-end industrial country in one fell swoop, and has maintained this advantage until now.

From another perspective, the French authorities have to worry about the ulterior motives of the United States.

As we all know, before the end of the Great Depression, the United States followed the example of the Republic, taking the pound per year.

The new Ya Xing and the warehouse to promote new products as an opportunity to take turns to promote the technology song, that is, basically every old year, the industrial production technology in the high-end field will be innovated. The Republic is in the year of Lishi to put the fighter 2-level composite battery to the market, so by the calendar year, the metallurgical composite battery will enter the civilian market. According to the general scale of the exhibition, the enterprises of the republic will begin to prepare for the production of old-grade composite batteries around the beginning of the field year. That is, if necessary, the republic can completely promote the old composite battery in the field year. In fact, there has been enough news to confirm that the production process of 6-level composite batteries in the United States will mature in about the field year, and it is expected to be mass-produced in about 2 years. Even if the actual situation will not be so optimistic, because the United States has never been able to complete high-end scientific research work as planned, it is optimistically estimated that it will take at least 7 years for the old composite battery to be mass-produced and expand production capacity before four. As a result, the United States also has the problem of eliminating backward technology. In other words, even if an agreement is signed with the United States, and the American authorities fulfill the agreement, it will take several years for France to get the production process of mouth-level composite batteries, and it will be even later to put it into mass production. When the time comes, not only will the new technology not change the situation in France, but will put a heavy burden on France's back. In fact, instead of losing anything, U.S. companies have found new ways to deal with outdated production capacity.

All in all, as long as the French president is not a fool, he will not take the sweet words of the United States as the truth.

In other words, the French authorities simply want to put pressure on the republic so that it can make greater concessions on the export of technology.

The question is, how much concession should the republic make?

Some people may think that such a major matter should be considered by the Yuan, and it is not the turn of the Minister of Defense to be embarrassed. This is not the case. Even in the era of Ji Weiguo and Wang Yuanqing, Yuan would not bow down to everything. In many cases, Yuan's main job is to select the best one from the suggestions and opinions provided by think tanks, including various departments of the State Council, which can best safeguard national interests and is most likely to be implemented. And arrange specific people and turn them into action. Apparently. Pei Chengyi plays such a role. Because he proposed and supported the EU to win over the EU, it was naturally up to him to make a big contribution when it came time to take action.

According to Yan Jingyu's arrangement, as long as it involves national security, Pei Chengyi will make a decision.

Of course, there is also a very important thing involved here, that is, Pei Chengyi is the insider of "Yan Huang Jizai", and even the participant. You must know that even Yan Jingyu is only an insider, not a participant. And so it goes. In many key technologies, Pei Chengyi's voice even surpassed Yan Jingyu.

The question is, what kind of advanced technology can be provided to France?

Liri, Pei Chengyi went to the Yuan Mansion alone, but the reply he got was to let him make his own decision.

Yan Jingyu is not shirking responsibility, after all, his understanding of technology is far inferior to Pei Chengyi, so it is impossible to make an idea on this issue.

Of course, in addition to Pei Chengyi, another person who has a major right to speak is Liu Xiao and Bin.

It was like this, when he was less than an hour away, Pei Chengyi found Liu Xiaobin, and the two talked alone for several hours.

According to Liu Xiaobin, France at least hopes that the Republic can provide many mature technologies, including the mass production process of mouth-level composite batteries, and requires that through training and other methods, French companies can master and have actual production capacity within 2 to 3 years. Because it is very likely that the American authorities will lure France in the name of joint opening, the Republic must make concessions when negotiating with the French authorities.

Strictly speaking, it is not a big problem to supply a beater 2-stage composite battery.

In Liu Xiaobin's words, even if the Republic does not sell technology, the United States will. More importantly, as the old-grade composite battery will be put into the civilian market after the field year, "the production process of the second-level composite battery is not a cutting-edge technology related to national security."

The key is only one catty", that is, whether to provide France with the production process of old-grade composite batteries.

There is no doubt that the scientific research institutions and enterprises of the republic have mastered the production process, and are not in a hurry to put it on the market, first, military procurement occupies most of the production capacity, but the products equipped with mouth-level composite batteries are still "small luxury" and there are enough profit margins, and those enterprises in the republic that dominate the world's high-end power products do not have the idea of updating the product structure, and there is no need to rush to promote new processes.

On this critical issue, Liu Xiaobin did not give advice, but asked Pei Chengyi to "act at the opportunity." ”

Obviously, it is not easy for Liu Xiaobin to be able to talk about this.

Before getting on the plane, Pei Chengyi had been thinking about Liu Xiaobin's words. Because after arriving in Paris, he will have his first informal contact with the French defense minister, so after the special plane took off, Pei Chengyi forced himself to forget about his work and went to the senior passenger cabin to sleep.

By the time he woke up, the plane had landed on the runway of Paris-Charles de Gaulle International Airport.
