Chapter 232: The Art of Hegemony 8

In order to thank the "ghoul" classmates for their big red envelopes, three chapters are hereby added today and tomorrow to show respect~!

No matter how many fighters the other side has, they can't stand the extremely diligent second-cargo young man who goes every day, stealing three times a day, in the severe cold and heat, rain or shine......

As long as the target is not completely destroyed, it can be stirred up, it doesn't matter if it is broken, it can also be used as an organ donation!

When I think about it, even the chicken admires that he has such a high enthusiasm for labor. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

If there are relevant selection activities, you will definitely be able to win the title of dedicated model worker!

At present, 417 F-15s of various types have been shipped, and the Su-30 family has reached 348 (the Indian Air Force, which has more than 200 Su-30MKIs, has made a significant contribution).

The very advanced Su-35 and Su-34 also have 69 and 52 respectively, for a total of 886 aircraft, and all of them are heavy fighters.

Even if each light fighter is one ton and the heavy fighter is two tons, the alliance has not yet paid as much as 2,000 tons of gold.

In addition to paying for the Air Force and the Territorial Defense Force, the big pineapple also has to add some "cuties" to the Navy!

After the space is upgraded again, the second-cargo youth can already carry conventional submarines, such as the German-style U-212.

Miji found four U-212s in German ports, an equal number of U-214s in South Korea, and Turkey and Israel also contributed two each.

Each ship is worth ten tons of gold, a total of one hundred tons, but it is a great value for money, with decades of advanced electronics and technology.

The U-212 series has a great reference role for the alliance to develop AIP submarines, and these swarthy things are not just decorations, they can really be put into combat readiness.

As a bonus, the second-cargo youth moved the important equipment and parts of HDW of the German ThyssenKrupp Group, which produces U-boats, and the Woosan shipyard of Hyundai Heavy Industries of South Korea.

Whether the hairy bear can use these things or not doesn't matter to the chicken.

As the saying goes: Etiquette is heavy, love is heavier~!

***************************************

Despite repeated setbacks, Washington, which was full of tricks, was not discouraged and relied on its own great strength to press on the Soviet Union step by step.

In early February, the Ministers of Finance and the Governors of the United States, Japan, West Germany, France, and the United Kingdom held a G5 Summit at the Plaza Hotel in New York.

U.S. Treasury Secretary James? Baker openly accused the Soviet government of deliberately intervening in the ruble exchange rate and forcibly lowering the real value of the ruble in order to stimulate Soviet commodity exports and ensure the country's economic growth.

In 1982, the exchange rate of the dollar against the ruble was 0.7 rubles per dollar, and two years later, it remained at this level.

Washington was counting on the appreciation of the ruble to curb Soviet exports, but the currency of the woolly bear is not the main international currency and is not directly linked to the dollar, pound, yen and other currencies.

The current ruble exchange rate was calculated by the Soviet Union Bank on the basis of the country's economic situation, foreign exchange reserves, and the form of international financial transformation.

In other words, the hairy bear says as much as it does, and it thinks: it's scientific......

With the Soviet government not over-issuing money or there is no shortage of goods in the market, it will be difficult for American financiers to seize opportunities that can be profitable.

Moscow considers the implementation of a prudent monetary policy to be in line with the current development situation of the Union and a good manifestation of the objective demand for productivity.

In fact, it is also convenient to form a huge trade surplus and promote foreign exchange surpluses, thus laying a good economic foundation for the improvement of national strength.

The Soviet Union will not succumb to external pressure, make wrong and negative strategic adjustments, and make debt a heavy burden for itself.

Far from frightening his opponents, Lord Baker's arrogance prompted Moscow to forcibly fix the dollar/ruble at the 1:0.7000 mark.

Even a fluctuation of 0.01 kopecks was impossible (1 ruble = 100 kopecks), and the Americans, who ran into a wall, had no choice but to point the finger at Japan......

As the Cold War intensified, US defense spending rose year after year, the fiscal deficit also rose, and the foreign trade deficit continued to widen.

The United States is eager to increase the export competitiveness of its products through the depreciation of the dollar in order to improve its balance of payments imbalance.

Last year, the U.S. foreign trade deficit reached $180 billion, the highest in several years.

However, the continuous appreciation of the US dollar has reduced the competitiveness of US exports and provided a stable basis for the foreign trade deficit.

In the face of strong protests from manufacturing bosses, the actor president had to agree to intervene in the market to bring down the dollar.

In the military sphere, the enemy of the United States is the Soviet Union; In the economic sphere, the opponent of the United States is Japan!

After the Emperor Taishang made his speech, Japanese Finance Minister Noboru Takeshita did not dare to comply, promising to increase the yen's value by 20 percent within six months.

The soaring international gold price has also become a booster for the depreciation of the US dollar to a certain extent.

By the time the G5 meeting arrived, the price of gold had risen to $33 million per tonne!

What's even more terrifying is that you can't buy a spot even if you have a banknote, you have to make a reservation beforehand.

After South Africa and India exclusively supplied their own gold to the Soviet Union, the gold market has become a seller's market completely.

The United States and other Western countries have demanded that South Africa stop exporting gold to the Soviet Union and instead supply the international market.

But Africa's indigenous people, who have already received the full support of the alliance, are no longer what they used to be, and with weapons and oil, they no longer intend to bow to the West.

South Africa was almost choked by US sanctions before, and now that it has finally eased up, how can it be possible to bow down to it again?

The Soviet Union was interested in making South Africa the Israel of Africa (small but powerful), and Uncle White was very willing to take charge of southern Africa.

With Moscow's strong support and the threat of a strong enemy in the vicinity, 200,000 professional South African Defence Forces are enough to dominate the savannah.

Moreover, as the world's major gold exporter, the rise in gold prices is very beneficial to itself, which can quickly increase foreign exchange reserves, and there is no need to be at the mercy of other countries.

After the signing of the "Plaza Accord," the five countries began to jointly intervene in the foreign exchange market and frantically sell the dollar, resulting in a sustained and substantial depreciation of the dollar.

“…… That's what you wanted! ”

The second-hand youth had already suggested that the big pineapple exchange the dollars in his hand for gold, yen, and marks, so that he could make at least 20% of the net profit without worrying about depreciation.

If you continue to hold a lot of dollars and sit at home and do nothing, the purchasing power of your liquidity will shrink by 20%.

Of course, the big pineapple that has seen the "Plaza Agreement" will not rest on its laurels and sit still, and the Soviet Union will throw dollars together with their Western counterparts, and it will be cool to throw the ground~!

"We're also using $5 billion to buy yen options, and we should get a little bit of a return!" Big pineapple also understands that there is no chance to be missed

Unless both the actor president and the Japanese government go crazy, the yen will definitely appreciate in the next six months, and at least by more than 10 percent.

If the Plaza Accord is a big play for Moscow, the US foreign trade deficit will exceed $200 billion by the end of this year.

The actor president has nothing else to do but turn on the money printing press.

Even so, it would be a good deal to gamble with the White House with half a billion dollars.

If the Soviet Union loses this money, it means that the United States will lose at least $20 to 30 billion at the same time.

Both the United States and the Soviet Union were losers, and the real winners would be Japan and West Germany, but this is something that Washington does not want to see in any case.

So according to the theory of reverse negation (if you love me, I will be able to drink the waters of the Pacific Ocean. But I can't drink it, so you don't love me! Mao Xiong can make six or seven billion dollars from it, which is still less to say, because options have multiple leverage.

"The Japanese can't stop it if they know about it, otherwise they will be against the United States!" This time, the "overlord meal" was paid for by the island landlord

I don't know if it will hold back the internal injuries, because with the take-off of the alliance's manufacturing industry, the Soviet Union and Japan have become fierce economic rivals.

The fact that Mao Xiong earns $2 billion from Japan is equivalent to a net loss of $4 billion for Japan!

What annoys the other side is that this $5 billion smashing money is the United States to West Berlin to relieve the siege......

Anyway, the actor president has a lot of chips on the gambling table, is worth a lot, and can afford to lose, so he shouldn't mind the big pineapple winning another game.

"It seems that we have to add fuel to the fire!"

In order to keep the alliance economy growing by 15% under the malicious pressure of the United States, the GDP of this year will exceed 1.43 trillion US dollars, leaving Japan behind.

The second-class young man decided to start his own "big killer", of course, not a little chicken, but a ......

i-Think Desktop!

The standard configuration is a 14-inch color monitor, 8MB of memory, 512M hard disk, optical drive and floppy drive.

The CPU is a Pentium processor, with a frequency of 120MHz, which is 8 times that of the Intel 80386.

The operating system is Windows 95 modified version of Persimmon Garden Edition, called iSee.

The lowest selling price is $4999, but it's not expensive at all, just compare it......

The 20-kilogram junk computer produced by Compaq still sold 53,000 units at a unit price of $3,590!

As for the specific performance comparison, the i-Think has a color display, a high-performance processor, a large amount of memory, and a hard drive.

Irresponsible, it can throw any similar product on the earth to the moon!

The reason why it is on sale now is that the i-Think produced at the beginning of the year is almost damp and will be returned to the factory if it is not sold publicly.

The young man of the second cargo said at the beginning of last year, and by now, it has been almost a year......

"Making the Yankees stare is the deity's greatest wish! Stop talking nonsense, pay for it! ”

Don't worry Uncle Sam copying the i-Think, due to the technical limitations, within five years, they will disassemble the computer into parts, and they will not be able to build it.

i-Think can be connected to the network, supports printers, has office and PS software, can be used as office supplies, and can also play games & Watching movies, especially in the dead of night......

The bureau gave feedback from KGB: "The computer is very easy to use, easy to use, and stable performance, within a week, the vast majority of personnel can master its basic functions!" ”

KGB purchased 1,000 i-Think units in advance, which can greatly improve office efficiency, and then the Kremlin and the Ministry of Defense also placed orders, and then major institutions followed up in time.

Mi Ji smiled and said jokingly: "Fortunately, you bought it early, otherwise it won't be long before you have to make a reservation!" ”

Since it is currently only available in English, the UK has become the largest user in Western Europe, and half of the 10,000 units that have arrived have been sold in just over half a month.

The local distributor also urgently ordered 5,000 units, and if the market demand is strong, it can also be directly airlifted over.

i-Think has started to sell well in Commonwealth countries and English-speaking countries, such as India, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Malaysia, Singapore and other countries.

The local tyrants in the Middle East also bought very well, as long as it was a trendy product made by the alliance, the chiefs were willing to try it.

Not for anything else, there is such an unaware high-tech product at home, which seems to have its own unique taste and face!

As for what it does, whether you can use it or not, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal to use it as a DVD player!

Office workers will not understand why local tyrants keep tigers, leopards and other beasts as pets, and people's money will not be spent in this life.

To be precise, as long as there is no war in the Middle East, basically all of them are tyrants, and the money they make from selling oil is enough for them to live a life of gold and silver.

Some people will say, when the oil is finished, see how you live!

If you look at the boss around you, there are people in their fifties and sixties who feel that they can't do it, so they retire.

So there will be no work, so will they starve to death?

“…… At present, the relevant departments have not found the vulnerability of i-Think leaking customers' confidential content, but they still want to remind customers who are interested in buying computers that it is best to use American products as the first choice! ”

The White House spokesman said that the American product was Osborne-Vixen, equipped with a 7-inch CRT monitor, 64KB of RAM, a 4MHz processor and a disk drive, but the price was shameless at $2,800!

Compared to the high-performance i-Think, the Osborne-Vixen's low-to-the-top configuration is like a soaring ......

So most American consumers take this spokesperson's words as a fart, even sports that are not bad for money & Entertainment stars are willing to swipe their cards to buy high-quality and low-cost i-Think!

When Myphone was listed, he warned him like this, and now he is reading according to the script, really fooling the public for fools?

Lilia couldn't help but ask, "Honey, is i-Think a tech product or a fashion product?" ”

Chicken: "...... This one...... It varies from person to person! ”

In short, it's good not to sell kidneys!

************************************

In the fifth year of Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty, at the beginning of the autumn of 182 A.D., the old wild boar personally commanded 50,000 Houjin cavalry infantry to the south and directly took the four counties of Liaodong.

With the help of six M1857 12-pounder field guns and more than 2,400 Type 1777 flintlock smoothbore guns, it took only three days to break through Goguryeo Fortress (near present-day Shenyang Dongling), the seat of Xuansu County (near present-day Shenyang Dongling), which had been renamed Hetuala.

In addition to the 2,000 defenders who were killed on the spot, the Houjin army, which had been frustrated in the siege of Pingsi, seemed to be unsatisfied, so they slaughtered about 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people in the city, leaving more than 30,000 young men and women to bury the bodies of the dead and use them as slaves for them to drive.

After the appearance of unknown indigenous armed forces on the outskirts of Xuansu County, Taishou Gongsun Cheng immediately wrote a letter for help, and his godson Xiangping County ordered Gongsun Du to be furious after receiving the retribution, and immediately sent 3,000 troops from Xiangping (Liaoyang) to the north to help.

As a result, the reinforcements were defeated in the field battle by Mang Gurtai and Lai Mubu, who commanded the two blue banners, and 3,000 men and horses were lost, and Gongsun Du only carried more than 100 personal guards to escape in the chaos.
