Chapter 218: Bad Moves
Although Anyan did not bother to care about what Morris and the French president discussed, they spent so much time in the confidential conference room that the French were generally a little absent at the state dinner at the Élysée Palace that night. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Even the president, who was supposed to be calm, walked a few times, and only after being reminded by his wife next to him did he remember to clink glasses with the guests. An Yang gave him a smile, and President France squeezed out a smile as well.
There has been a certain amount of support for Anonymous's extraterrestrial technology in France, but no matter how you think about it, it feels like there's a layer of absurdity in it, and talking about it is more of a joke about the problem.
But today, after hearing the anonymous party's own confession, their worldview was completely refreshed, and they suddenly felt how small they were! Higher civilizations just look at them like reptiles.
If the bug is obedient, it will be rewarded, and if the bug resists, it is likely to suffer a catastrophe...... The psychological impact of this concept on them can be imagined!
High civilization, President France's heart has been difficult to calm for a long time. Is it any wonder that Anonymous has so many advanced technologies and has implemented them one by one, what kind of changes will this bring to humanity?
But what is certain is that the French have been very determined to cling to the thigh of Anonymous - just like the attitude of the Chinese side, it is capable of kneeling and licking in the face of an overly powerful civilization.
France is not as powerful as the United States, and the American mentality is that even if there is a technological gap, they can destroy everything as long as it is on a planetary scale.
This is the reason why Anonymous is still not in touch with American reality, and they do not have enough chips to make Americans' proud heads bow and accept reality.
France, on the other hand, has never thought of doing so, and the omniscience of Anonymous has discouraged them. In the face of great power, all resistance is futile.
Conversely, why does it have to be revolt? Politicians are not brainless and angry youths, their purpose is to find a route that is most beneficial to themselves and their country from countless choices.
Without a doubt, following in the footsteps of Anonymous is the best at the moment.
In the end, their thoughts were all expressed through the smiles and enthusiasm at the banquet, and if it weren't for the limited occasion, they might have been able to dance a few times to support the fun.
The president has repeatedly emphasized: "The friendship between our two sides will last for a long time!" The French side will also firmly support your idea of leading the progress of mankind! ”
It was a proper lick, but everyone laughed gloriously.
Morris raised his glass to the French high-ranking officials: "As long as we do not violate the most fundamental principles, we are willing to cooperate with friendly countries!" ”
Everyone present raised their glasses to celebrate this glorious moment.
France, with all its performances and assurances, has won the support of Anonymous. In the next few days of business cooperation, there were frequent major good news, such as cooperation in military science and technology.
In addition, such as cooperation in power generation technology, nuclear fusion and superconductor power generation, France will be the first in Europe to enjoy, and it is expected that the European "super grid" plan will become a reality, astronomical benefits.
Such cooperation smashed the French into a daze, and even after being smashed to the ground, they still had a sweet smile on their faces that were pampered.
In the position of Anonymous, the commercial interests are the most direct, and the fusion joint venture, in which they will hold 40% of the shares, and with a small amount of technology and money, they will divide the future market in Europe.
It would also be a victory for France to start choosing a side, because they would not be close to the alliance because of their NATO status, but they would not oppose the alliance either.
On the contrary, they also have to carry out commercial cooperation, such as the alliance urgently needs airliners, hundreds of billions of dollars in cooperation, Airbus is already a big step ahead of Boeing, will win the order.
Add to that the alliance's commercial investments, trade exchanges, etc., and with the help of Anonymous, the bilateral cooperation could generate more than a trillion dollars in the future, enough to revive the French economy.
When the two sides who reached a cooperation shook hands, their faces were full of red light, and their smiles came from the bottom of their hearts.
It's a win-win partnership.
……
But for NATO, it's not so good.
Although France will not make any information about Anonymous public, this is the bottom line that was emphasized at the meeting. However, the business visits of a large number of anonymous party members to France cannot be avoided.
After the news broke that the French president planned to visit the two countries of the alliance, this kind of maverick diplomatic behavior in this general environment has attracted even more attention.
Of course, France's high-profile inconsistency with its allies has not happened unprecedented, and when NATO decided to attack Iraq in 2003, France was very resolutely opposed.
This time, also at a time when NATO is constantly strengthening its vigilance against the Crescent Alliance, the French president actually decided to make a foreign visit? This decision is probably more sensational than the opposition to the war back then.
A foreign visit by a head of state often involves multiple political, interest, and even military relations, and the purpose is mainly inclined to negotiation and cooperation. If it is not for cooperation, just send a foreign minister.
France's strange behavior has attracted the attention of Britain, the United States and Germany, and the German chancellor, who has been closer to France in recent years, called to know the reason for France's actions.
"I can't fully explain it, but I can send a few words of advice and continue the NATO concept, which is not necessarily correct," the French president said on the phone. Haven't we had enough trouble with the refugee problem in previous years? If you go down the old path, it may lead to bad consequences. ”
"What are the consequences?" The German Chancellor wants him to make it clear.
"I'm sorry, but based on our friends, I can only remind you so much. But think about it, the Middle East is closer to Europe and far from the United States, who will suffer first when things go bad? ”
After listening to this inexplicable but sincere exhortation, the German Chancellor also pondered: "Can the French get more benefits from there?" ”
"It is also possible that there are forces that discourage them from acting rashly, or that there is a combination of interests and threats, which would better explain why he is visiting the alliance," the prime minister's adviser said. ”
"Perhaps." The German Chancellor thought for a moment, and suddenly raised his head: "Do you think we should also be in line with France?" ”
The thought, like a stone falling into the surface of a lake, ripples broke the peace.
U.S. intelligence advisers concluded: "They want to divide our NATO allies!" ”
"Can you be sure that the Anonymous Party did it?" Waters asked.
"There are a number of targets that we have focused on identifying in the list of business people who have visited France, and the attitude of the French side afterwards can also prove that they have reached a lot of consensus," the consultant concluded. ”
"What the hell!" The bad-tempered Wattle blurted out, took off his glasses and rubbed his temples, she was very tired from the recent succession, the business and political crises at home had not been dealt with, and the allies abroad were causing trouble again.
She originally thought that she was dealing with a group of clowns who jumped off the beam, and could only hide in the shadows and pretend to be ghosts.
However, the fiasco of the cargo ship incident has reduced US-Australian relations to a freezing point; The United States wanted to restrict the other party's business, but it was bitten back, and it almost put itself in it; The United States actively supported anti-coalition forces in the Middle East, but the next moment the NATO allies switched.
This big pile of troubles came over in one go, and Walter's anger couldn't be controlled: "Short-sighted guy! Can the Arabs, even if they want to unite, represent permanent interests? If it is not a race, there will always be differences in the roots! Stupid! ”
The chief of staff then said: "Then shall we remind NATO allies?" ”
"Absolutely." Wattle affirmed, "With Russia in the east, alliances in the Middle East, and Europe's fragile military power, do they really think they can fly alone?" ”
The chief of staff advised: "The way to strengthen relations should be from the point of view of international security, and in addition to giving certain economic reminders. ”
Voter nodded: "The follow-up will support more military bases in Europe, the technology of warplanes, ships and radars, and missiles if necessary and can also cooperate." ”
"Too much, right?"
"Not much." Wattle saw it very clearly, "Now it is necessary to use great force to stabilize the hearts of allies, the small actions of the French will definitely make the minds of others waver, and first dispel the thoughts of others." ”
"Okay."
"Wait." Wattle thought for a moment and decided: "Then use covert means and some actions to remind Europe that Middle Easterners are always outliers, and let them be careful." ”
