One thousand thirty-eight. A request to the Prime Minister of France!

"Accept Mr. Wittgenstein's request at once!"

The board of directors of the "French Dewey Bank" unanimously approved this proposal.

This is good news that Parisian high society has not heard for a long time. For some time now, there have been countless worrying things that have plagued them, such as the riots of those lowly civilians, the constant wave of protests, the sluggish economy, and the great shock caused to France and even the whole of Europe by the collapse of the US financial market.

This has also caused a lot of damage to their assets.

Dewey Bank was in fact a financial institution for those of the upper class, or more precisely, the middle and senior officials of the French government, which was a guarantee that they would get more profits.

They were counting on Dewey Bank to bring them a steady stream of great wealth, not to expose them to any losses. Disappointingly, however, Rottini and his "French Dewey Bank" were not able to do so.

If it weren't for the fear that there would be no more suitable candidate to remove Rotini and even bring them more irreversible losses due to the bankruptcy of Dewey Bank, then Rotini would not have stayed in this position long ago.

But now things have taken a huge turn for the better...... and the emergence of the "Lion Fund" is a huge inspiration for them......

Just like in any of the places that Moyol. Monsieur Wittgenstein immediately became the most popular man in the entire French high society.

And there is not one.

To celebrate the huge investment of the Lion Fund, Rottini hosted a dance party in his home. This is one of the things that the French are most passionate about. Moreover, at this ball, even French Prime Minister Jean Jean. Sinag, Secretary of Defense Dedian. Marshal Lucien and the rescued Juster. General Robito will also be in attendance.

In fact, they are also investors in Dewey Bank......

When the young and handsome Mr. Wittgenstein appeared. There was an immediate round of applause. The current Mr. Wittgenstein from the United States has already become a savior in the eyes of everyone.

Yes, the great savior, in such a bad economic situation, there can still be such a person, in addition to the great savior, what better words can you think of?

"Mr. Wittgenstein" was brought before three big men, Chancellor Sinag, Field Marshal Lucien, and General Robito.

"It is an honor to meet you, Mr. Wittgenstein. Welcome to France and invest, we are sure that the French economy will soon improve. Schinager greeted him, then gave him a few more looks: "I think you're familiar." Have we seen it somewhere else? ”

"Ah, I think we might have really met somewhere......" Wang Weiyi smiled, Sinag probably won't remember that day. It was he who kidnapped General Robito with his own hands.

Sinagher shrugged. Someone like Mr. Wittgenstein would always attend all sorts of high-society meetings, and he might have met him at any one of them.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency the Field Marshal, I must solemnly introduce to you my savior...... "General Robito was relieved, and then said, "If it were not for Mr. Wittgenstein, I would still be in the hands of the rioters." ”

For this, Sinag and Lucien already knew from Berkeley's mouth. It was Mr. Wittgenstein who used some of his personal connections in France. This succeeded in freeing Robito from the hands of the rioters.

"I think I must express my gratitude to you on behalf of the French Government......" Lucien said in great sincerity: "If it weren't for your efforts, I think the followers of General Robito would probably not be able to contain their emotions by now." ”

Wang Weiyi smiled faintly: "I think it is also my personal honor to be able to do something for the French government...... But with all due respect. The situation in Paris is not particularly rosy...... From the first day I arrived in Paris, I had already discovered such a situation...... Your Excellency the Prime Minister, Your Excellency the Field Marshal, my guess is that perhaps the economic turmoil has caused the current situation......"

The smile on Sinag's face vanished, and Mr. Wittgenstein's words struck at the heart of the matter...... At least that's what the matter is for these people in the French government...... In their view, as long as they can solve the bad economy of France, they can solve all the problems that exist or hide in the country......

Sinag blinked, "So, what advice do you have?" ”

"Ah, I'm just a businessman...... Wang Weiyi said lightly, "I will only think about it from the business side." I think as you may already know, we have made a huge investment in Dewey Bank, but this is just the beginning, and if we can meet some of the requirements of the Lion Fund, I think the total amount of our investment in France in the coming year will be a very staggering amount......"

Sinag's eyes lit up, something he had dreamed of as French prime minister...... Of course, he also paid special attention to the phrase "if some of the requirements of the lion fund can be met". What he knows very well is that these investors have very greedy appetites, and they will never put their money in a market for nothing in return.

"Although this is not a formal occasion...... Schinager muttered for a moment, "but Mr. Wittgenstein, I would be happy to listen to your suggestion." ”

Wang Weiyi nodded, and Rodini arranged them into a separate room, and Wang Weiyi said: "We can make an investment of up to $1.5 billion in a year!" ”

Just this sentence made everyone hold their breath, but Wang Weiyi still said in the same slow and calm tone: "But we demand that there are some privileges in Paris and even in all the areas where we invest in France, which are economic and political. Ladies and gentlemen. I think you will be very surprised, why do I ask for political privileges? Actually, you know this better than I do. Bureaucracy exists in every country, and we don't want to have to go back and forth for the same investment approvals......"

Sinag nodded involuntarily...... Mr. Wittgenstein is not wrong in saying that France is one of the most bureaucratic countries in Europe and even in the world, and for this reason, many foreign investors have been complaining for a long time, but this is a deep-rooted disease in France and has not attracted any attention from the French government.

Of course. This sentence was put forward by Mr. Wittgenstein and was completely different.

$1.5 billion, any word that any investor who can bring in $1.5 billion is worth pondering......

"We are considering the acquisition of the Lyon steel plant......"

When "Mr. Wittgenstein" said this, Sinag's eyes lit up again.

Lyon steel plant. It is a problem that has plagued the French government for a long time. Under the impact of the financial crisis, the steel plant's already crumbling economy was dealt a fatal blow in an instant, and the factory has entered the stage of bankruptcy and liquidation. However, the French government does not want to see this happen. If the steel plant goes bankrupt. It will leave a large number of workers unemployed. The already turbulent situation in France has been dealt a heavy blow again. This could even cause a series of terrible accidents throughout France.

However, no matter how hard the French government tries, it can't find a receiver or investor, and in such an economic situation, who wants to take over this mess? However, at this very moment, the man who gave Sinag hope appeared!

- Mr. Wittgenstein!

Sinag's nervous breathing became heavy: "Mr. Wittgenstein, are you really willing to buy the Lyon steel plant?" ”

"Not me. It's a lion fund. And we're not acquiring. There is only an intention to do so. Wang Weiyi specially corrected the other party: "You must know that such a major acquisition needs to be considered from many aspects, especially the sincerity of the other party, what do you say?" Your Excellency the Prime Minister. ”

Sinagher understood exactly what the other man meant. Now, Mr. Wittgenstein and the Lion Fund he represents have a very simple purpose: either to promise to give him the privileges he wants, or to make no investment at all.

"You learned that this is not something I can say alone, I need to ask the cabinet for instructions."

When Sinag said this, Wang Weiyi smiled again. The so-called cabinet is nothing more than that Sinag has to report to French President Khatri. However, Wang Weiyi is not worried about whether the proposal will pass. In addition to the fact that the situation in France does not allow them to think too much, there is another very important factor: the huge difference in character between the president and the prime minister.

Compared to Prime Minister Cinnager, President Cathari has a much more mediocre personality, just as his abilities are exactly the same, and almost all major decisions of the French government are decided by Chancellor Sinag alone. As for the president who is high above? Or, more accurately, he looks like a puppet.

And now, presumably, Sinager has already made his own judgment......

"I think it's entirely possible to consider Mr. Wittgenstein's suggestion." Lucien cleared his throat, and he thought that even if he was a soldier, he should express his opinion in such a situation: "I am a soldier, and I should not have any opinion on such a thing, but the situation in France is very worrying for people like me. Not long ago, the Allied Commander-in-Chief, Westmoreland, and I had spoken on the phone, and the Axis forces had launched a strong counteroffensive in the area centered on Lübeck, and that a large number of German troops were secretly massing up for the possibility of a counterattack on the French mainland. Mr. Prime Minister, we need to rearm the army, we need to re-purchase equipment, and the support of the Americans alone is not enough! ”

"The Axis is going to attack mainland France?" Sinag, who basically knows nothing about military affairs, was surprised: "I'm afraid this is unlikely, right?" Know that their capital, Berlin, is under strong attack from us! ”

Lucien smiled bitterly: "That was last year. Since last year, especially after the return of that Baron Alexon. The tide of the war has changed dramatically. Both attacks on Berlin ended in the defeat of the Allies, and we had lost too much vital force in Berlin, which had already launched a ferocious counteroffensive on all fronts. And. What is even more worrying is that in North Africa and the Middle East, the German army has achieved a series of victories, and after Turkey and Iran announced their accession to the Axis powers, they quickly reinforced a large number of troops in both places, which allowed the German army to calmly draw troops from the North African and Middle East battlefields to reinforce the German mainland. It was under this premise that the landing operation in Lübeck took place......"

Before his words fell, General Robito said, "Yes." Even more frighteningly, both Russia and Italy announced their withdrawal from the Allies and joined the Axis powers instead. What does this mean? This meant that the Germans were able to move their forces more calmly. I just came back from the front. I have every say in all of this. Mr. Prime Minister, if this situation is not reversed soon, perhaps the Allies will lose victory in this war......"

Sinag was dumbfounded, even though he had known that the Allied offensive was not going well. But I never thought that it had developed to this point.

"Mr. Wittgenstein. I think you'll get the answer you're looking for in two hours, but of course, we're going to be here for a long time today. Sinag became absent-minded: "Marshal Lucien, can you come out with me?" ”

He and Lucien hurried out of the city, and Wang Weiyi knew that they were going to discuss their demands with President Cathar at once.

When only Wang Weiyi, Robbito and Berkeley were left, the atmosphere of the conversation changed completely.

"Your Excellency, everything is going according to your vision." Robitto's words were flattering: "I think we'll soon see the fall of the Cathari government." ”

Let's be honest. Berkeley never thought that Robito would become a member of His Excellency the Baron. Ah, no. It was a dog at the side of His Excellency the Baron.

This also made him more glad, if he hadn't made a decision on the spot, then he wouldn't know how to die.

"Yes, the plan is going very well, and Sinag will soon bring me everything I want." Wang Weiyi sneered: "What about the troops? Will the troops be able to fully grasp it? ”

Robito quickly said: "The troops are completely under my control, those troops that are not well controlled, are being transferred to the front line by me one after another, two elite armored divisions, I am looking for an excuse to transfer them to Paris, the only headache for me is that the 1st National Guard Division and the 28th Panzer Division in Paris are not under my control, they only obey Sinag's orders, once we cannot quickly and completely seize power in Paris, then the situation may change significantly under the intervention of the United States." It is important to know that the U.S. military also has a large presence in France, and their navy can be reinforced. ”

"So that's why I have to say everything Sinag asks me for!" Wang Weiyi didn't seem to be the slightest worried: "A large number of German commandos will enter France in various ways, gentlemen, I don't think you have to worry at all, we will seize the beautiful city of Paris!" ”

The baron's words seemed to have a special magic that quickly put them at ease. As for Berkeley, he also had his own plan, and in the process of seizing power in Paris, he could not let Robito alone enjoy such great glory. Robitto, despite controlling the army, also has a weapon in his hands: a large number of police and secret police. They are more familiar with the situation in Paris and all of France than the soldiers!

"The police and the secret police are ready." Berkeley quickly blurted out, "All the power is completely under your command, Your Excellency. ”

Wang Weiyi smiled with satisfaction, yes, to defeat a country sometimes you don't need too many troops, what is needed is their collapse from within.

Robito, Berkeley, and a large number of French people like them are all forces that they can use. While the French government rejoiced at the death of opposition leader Yettieri, they could never have imagined that a large number of senior French government officials and the new leader of the opposition, Rantes, had already pledged allegiance to their enemies.

Just then, Sinag and Lucien re-entered, but their faces looked very ugly.

Sinag reluctantly said: "I have good news, President Khatri has agreed to your request, and I think we can start negotiations immediately tomorrow on the specific cooperation situation." I think we will do our best to accommodate all your requests. ”

"Ah, how exhilarating." Wang Weiyi said with a smile: "But why does your face look so bad?" Am I asking too much? ”

"No, it has nothing to do with you or our cooperation with you." Sinag glanced at Lucien: "Marshal, please tell them what terrible things have happened, anyway, sooner or later, all the people will know the truth, and we have nothing to hide." ”

Everyone held their breath and looked at Lucien.

At this time, Lucien said bitterly: "I have very bad news for you, that the Germans have launched a surprise attack on the French mainland two hours ago!" (To be continued......)
