In fact, this question is not difficult to answer. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

No matter how domineering Baiou Harbor is, at least it still talks about the rules on the table, and it has indeed paid a lot of sacrifices for the common interests of the Bender Alliance over the years.

Another important factor is faith. Most of the people of the alliance states are humans, sea elves and half-elves of mixed race, and they generally believe in the deep sea Sesila, and the holy place of the elf sea god is in Baigull Harbor, and every spring on the eve of the Holy Day, devout believers from all states come to the Grand Temple of Baigull Harbor to pay homage to the pilgrimage, and Lyubov is precisely the archbishop of the Deep Sea Temple, and the religious leader who is widely worshipped by all the believers of the Deep Sea Sesila in the North Bay area!

If Lyubov, in the name of the archbishop, calls on all the faithful to wage a holy war against the pirates, how sure will the state authorities be that they will suppress the fanatical congregation?

If Lyubov, in the name of the archbishop, declares that the ruling family of the city-state against her is an apostate and an accomplice of pirates, how will the state authorities deal with the anger of the fanatics and how will they maintain the safety of their families?

On the other hand, the pirates of the Giant Isle are all followers of the King of the Giants of the Deep and the evil god Balor Fermor, who is the sworn enemy of the Deep-Sea Sesila.

The blood feud between the sea giants and the sea elves has continued from the Ocean Century to the present day, and the magnates of various states can secretly collude with pirates, but they dare not openly stand on the side of the Fermore believers, otherwise there is no need for Lyubov to denounce it, and the seat under his ass will be overturned by the angry people.

The reason why Liu Bofu dared to express the attitude of "those who follow me will prosper and those who disobey me will perish" is precisely because he saw through the nature of their fierce inwardness and knew that they had no choice.

What is the general trend?

That's the trend!

The Storm Lord of the Sea Elves is beautiful and gentle, but when his temper flares up, he is as terrifying as a raging storm. With a turn of bright eyes to look around at everyone, the corners of Liu Bofu's lips rose slightly, and after the storm, Haiyan Heqing's smile was revealed.

"Gentlemen and ladies, you all know me and know that I am a reasonable person, and Baiougang advocates the spirit of freedom and will never treat friends badly."

When the councillors heard her words, they barely squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, and slandered in their hearts that this woman was talking nonsense with her eyes open, it was really not a thing!

Liu Bofu didn't care what they thought in their hearts, and directly threw out a document.

"I know that you have some opinions on the shipping insurance industry in Baiou Port recently, and I also admit that monopoly actually exists in this industry, if I can solve this problem, will you feel better?"

"Ma'am, are you willing to accept the Antitrust Act?" Lavrov of Silversail City was pleasantly surprised, "If you really pass this bill, I can speak on behalf of the authorities of Silversail City - this state firmly supports Baigull Harbor to fight back against pirate provocations!" ”

"I can make the same promise!"

"I am plenipotentiary on behalf of the authorities of Cold Spring City, and I promise to ......"

The parliamentarians were again excited, and the existence of the Bend League would be profitable for the state authorities if they could share in the profits of the shipping insurance industry, and they would certainly be happy to preserve the system.

"Listen to me, ladies and gentlemen, I have a better plan to meet the interests of various states without dismembering the Yangbo family shipping insurance group."

Lyubov's words disappointed everyone, but out of politeness and a glimmer of hope, they still picked up the documents distributed by the secretary and flipped through them on the spot.

"Ms. Liubof, what do you mean by the so-called 'equity exchange' plan?" Lavrov took off his glasses and asked with a frown.

Liu Bofu smiled slightly: "The so-called 'equity replacement', simply put, is to exchange the shares held by the Yangbo family shipping insurance group for the shares of major insurance institutions in various states, and the value of the shares of each company must be evaluated and different weights are calculated as the premise of the replacement." ”

What is the purpose of equity swapping?

For example, if I want to hold shares in another company, I can buy them with cash, but this will affect my cash flow, and the other party may not be willing to sell my shares. I can also use my own shares to exchange with the other party according to a certain percentage, so that I don't have to come up with cash, I have the other party's equity, of course, the other party also owns my shares, forming a cross-shareholding, there is a common interest.

As mentioned above, it is obvious that the advantage of "equity swap" is that it transforms competitors in the same industry into strategic partners, and resolves conflicts through cross-shareholding and benefit sharing.

So then again, can equity swap achieve the purpose of anti-monopoly?

On the contrary, equity replacement is a way to alleviate the uneven distribution of spoils caused by monopoly by expanding the monopoly, and in essence, instead of breaking the monopoly of the industry, it strengthens the monopoly, so it is often used by large consortia as a means of capital merger.

Which of the parliamentarians present is not a veteran of the shopping mall, and has become a fine fox, how can he not see through the fact that the equity replacement is contrary to the purpose of anti-monopoly?

However, a miraculous scene occurred.

No one took the initiative to uncover this "emperor's new clothes", but quarreled over the details of the equity exchange.

"Three shares for one? It's too bullying, I won't do it! ”

"I'm also three shares for one share...... It's okay and acceptable. ”

"Hehe, our Silver Sail City is two shares for one share, it's very good!"

"How can the Roa City Shipping Insurance Company only exchange ten shares for one share? This is too much! I protest! ”

"Come on, your shipping and insurance industry in Roa City is about to go fucking bankrupt, and the garbage stock is obviously taking advantage of it for ten for one, and you will be punished for your lack of greed!"

A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Lyubov's lips.

Last night, when she and Roland discussed the "equity replacement plan", she expected such a scene.

Using different equity replacement standards to win over a group of people, suppress a group of people, and quietly create an infighting within the anti-monopoly alliance is the core strategy of her and Roland, and this trick has proved to be very effective. Those lawmakers who thought they had taken advantage of immediately switched sides to support Lyubov's plan, while those who thought they had suffered tried to stick to the original split bill, and now there was no need for Lyubov to speak for her, and the two sides exchanged words, one side accused the other side of "betraying the revolution", and the other side accused the other side of being insatiable, so that the anti-monopoly alliance collapsed.

After a long quarrel, the minority finally obeyed the majority and passed the equity replacement plan submitted by Lyubov.

Until this moment when the dust settled, no one criticized the nature of equity swapping, and no one pointed out to his face the fact that equity swapping does not prevent monopoly but rather exacerbates it!

Why play dumb?

Because none of them are stupid.

If Lyubov's plan would allow them to acquire a stake in the Yangbo family insurance group in a relatively cheap way, why oppose it?

In the final analysis, the real purpose of these sanctimonious legislators has never been "anti-monopoly", what they oppose is that they cannot benefit from monopoly, and when they get benefits, the principles of righteousness and strictness such as "not competing with the people" are tacitly selectively forgotten by everyone present.

After the turmoil, the atmosphere of the venue returned to harmony, and the legislators shook hands and said joy, and this farce that originated from the uneven distribution of spoils in the shipping insurance industry and was launched under the banner of asking for the people's lives came to an end.

Lyubov announced the adjournment of the meeting, and just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the secretary hurriedly ran over, looking extremely flustered.

"Ma'am, I just learned of an emergency, dock workers gathered in front of the airship company to demonstrate, and some people claimed to ......"

"Don't panic, what else are they going to do?" Lyubov asked with a cold face.

Lud Melkin, leader of the seafarers' union...... He claims to smash the airship and all the machines used to make it! The secretary replied in a trembling voice. (To be continued.) )
