"Duke, you're a rare guest, why, the old man didn't invite you here, you really can't remember me, an old man, please take a seat!" As soon as the chief surnamed Liu saw Duke coming, he smiled and quipped, there was no so-called aura of the central boss in this expression.

He was dressed in civilian clothes, wearing a normal gray shirt on his upper body, like an old man next door, and the age spots on his face seemed to be deeper and denser than the last time Duke met. Looking at this real old man, not the chief in the news network, Duke had no awe in his heart, only admiration.

"Hello chief." Duke bowed politely. "It's just that the chief's time is so precious, and Duke doesn't dare to disturb him when he has free time," Duke said humbly, and sat down on the sofa next to him in the direction of the gesture of the chief surnamed Liu.

Director Sun Hong on the side quickly poured a cup of tea from the next room and put it in front of Duke, "Dr. Du, please drink tea!" "Thank you!" Duke bowed slightly and nodded at Director Sun Hong in thanks.

If everything was normal in the first place, then what happened next was a bit unusual.

After the tea, I saw the head surnamed Liu unexpectedly get up from behind the desk and walk over, sit directly next to Duke, and then waved his hand and motioned for Sun Hong to go out.

This situation is a little weird, because it makes it clear that he wants to talk to Duke alone, what is it that makes this high-ranking chief even the secretary avoid?

Seeing this unexpected situation, Duke's heart, which had been relaxed, suddenly began to beat rapidly again, this posture looks a little extraordinary, I don't know what the chief will talk about next, what kind of conditions and requirements will be put forward, will he propose to let himself engage in a super project that needs to be incognito for decades like nuclear weapons back then?

This is a heavyweight in the army, if he really makes any difficult requests, Duke can't just say to Director Sun Hong like he did with Director Sun Hong.

"Duke, now there are only two of us left, you don't want to call the chief, I'm tired of listening to this all day long, from the perspective of age, my old man should be about the same as your grandfather, if you are willing to call me Old Man Liu, or just call the old man, gossip about the old man, let's get straight to the point, in fact, I invited you over this time, mainly because I have something to talk to you."

The chief surnamed Liu really deserves to be a soldier and speaks straightforwardly, but sitting in his position, there is no need to go around with Duke in any circles.

When Duke heard the words of the chief surnamed Liu, he was even more bottomless in his heart, and he couldn't understand what this big guy wanted to say at all. What kind of things do you want Duke to do to make the head surnamed Liu make a condescending gesture.

Before figuring out the facts, Duke didn't know how to face the situation, "Old man, if you have anything to say, whatever I can do, Duke will definitely work hard to do." Duke could only smile wryly and vaguely past.

Etiquette must be asked for by others, this is a famous saying through the ages, Duke and the head surnamed Liu are not related, but they will not think that the head surnamed Liu can be exempt from vulgarity.

Fortunately, the head surnamed Liu did not say anything more in this regard, but went directly to the topic.

"I heard that you have reached an agreement with the Li family on the cooperative development of nuclear energy and established Dongfang New Energy Company," the head surnamed Liu really knows everything about Duke, "This is a good thing and a bad thing." ”

"For you, this is an opportunity to break into the energy field, what I didn't do for you, with the involvement of the Li family, this matter is probably not far from ten. So in the short term, it's a good thing for you. ”

"But for the country, it is not necessarily a good thing, because in this way, after occupying a certain share in this new field that day, the Li family's influence on domestic affairs has added a new field, and the ability to influence the domestic economy has been enhanced a lot."

Duke couldn't help but be a little confused when he heard this, he hadn't thought about these things, and he didn't expect that the development of a nuclear power plant would have such an important impact on domestic affairs.

He chose the Li family as the object of cooperation, but because the Li family guaranteed that it had the ability to enter the domestic power supply market, and could commercialize Duke's lotus pile, which was completely a commercial consideration.

"Okay, it seems that I'm a little confused, I know that you don't know much about the sphere of influence in the domestic economic field, so it's really useless to tell you this, so I'll start from the beginning, and first briefly tell you about the general trend of the domestic economy, and you will know the reason after listening to this" Looking at the young man Duke, who was at a loss, the head surnamed Liu couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Next, what the chief surnamed Liu said made Duke a little dumbfounded. For the domestic economy, it is basically a world where major forces are entrenched.

To be honest, when SAL has developed to this stage, whether it is Duke or Cai Siqiang, they have actually faintly felt that they have touched an almost insurmountable ceiling.

If SAL wants to move further, it can no longer go on a rampage as it did before.

Because Duke and Cai Siqiang found that the fields that SAL wants to enter now, whether it is power supply or the automotive industry, are basically areas with policy restrictions, and they didn't know why before. Now, after listening to the words of the head surnamed Liu, I know that these so-called controls are actually the scope of the current division of major economic forces.

In other words, the next development direction of SAL has begun to touch the sphere of influence and circle of interest entrenched by the big forces.

In these spheres of influence, no one cares about petty fights, such as power supply, if it is to engage in small hydropower or something, there are basically not many restrictions, as long as there is a certain relationship in the local area, you can come in. But if you want to show your strength and enter the scope of the national electricity supply, for example, Duke wants to enter the scope of nuclear power, then it touches the sphere of interests of the existing forces.

The so-called license threshold that Duke encountered that could not be avoided was actually an entry certificate that needed to be redrawn from the sphere of influence.

This kind of thing is not trivial, to this day, SAL is already a behemoth that cannot be underestimated, and its own capital and technology have a strong impact, so the original vested interests in the field that SAL wants to enter must have a great sense of prevention, technology and capital can not be stopped, so they put their minds on the control and licensing, this kind of policy environment has a long history of blocking and justifiable, so that Duke they can't say anything.
