Chapter 268: Free America

At heart, the Boston consortium is more appreciative of emerging energy sources such as solar than oil.

Therefore, ostensibly as one of the top ten consortia, they will not object to advancing and retreating together.

But behind the scenes, they are also eager for solar energy, which can rise, so that they may also be able to get a piece of the pie.

But if they can only sit and watch others make money, then they don't mind joining forces with other consortia to strangle each other in the cradle.

Among the many consortia, the representatives of the Boston consortium are the most relaxed.

In the previous acquisition of Orka, they only lost more than two billion dollars, and most of the losses were accounted for by the Rockefeller consortium and First Citigroup.

People are like this, it is obviously an unlucky thing, but because of the more tragic comparison, I feel inexplicably happy.

The representative of the First Citibank was a little flustered and stammered: "I.... I mean, if everybody doesn't have a solution..... Or ......"

"How about it?"

The representatives of the other consortiums stared at him, and they were about to shout.

If you are verbose, you can say whatever you want to say, and then everyone will do it, and he will bear the responsibility alone.

"Why don't you take a break first, I think you're all too nervous!"

Mr. Alvin, the representative of the First Citibank, was anxious by their questioning, and after saying this sentence in one breath, he took out another handkerchief, wiped his forehead, and made a look of overwhelm.

“ shit!”

A group of people had a look of disdain on their faces, cursed a few more words in their hearts, and continued to sit at the table, pretending to be a contemplative.

Mr. Alwin let out a long sigh of relief and leaned back in his chair in frustration.

People at their level are heaven if they go further, and hell when they take a step back, and the psychological pressure is too great when making decisions.

No problem with the little things in general.

Even if there are some mistakes, it doesn't matter.

But what is happening in front of us, it is foreseeable that the consortium has encountered an extremely deep underground organization.

While they continue to challenge the authority of the consortium, they are also gradually encroaching on the monopoly tycoons in the oil and energy industry.

Its purpose is also obvious, that is, to eventually replace the oil and energy industry and become the new master!

This is a war to the death, and now it is just a small outpost, and the battle will only be more fierce in the future.

The winner is king, and the loser is the loser.

Everything is either surviving under the suppression of new energy, or completely disappearing from the stage of history.

Such a key point that is difficult to choose has put these consortium representatives under great psychological pressure, and the tight strings are about to break.

If they are the real principals, they would rather shake hands with each other.

Although solar energy wants to replace the oil industry, although it may not be possible to achieve it in a short period of time, it is an inevitable trend of human development for new energy to replace old energy.

Forcibly stopping it will come at a great cost.

If they were principals, they would certainly not hesitate to offer a stake.

What they have is that, in addition to their own funds, they also have global influence.

The solar energy network cannot be built in a day, and it should be the best choice for ten or twenty years, with the process of construction, to strive for more and more profits.

However, they are not the top decision-makers.

How could a consortium be willing to become the little brother of the other party, pay for the other party's solar grid, and even help them dredge up their connections?

In the end, only a small profit?

How can it be!

The senior management of the consortium absolutely cannot accept such an outcome.

They can't be bosses, and no one else wants to be bosses!

The main tone had already been set, so although the representatives of the consortium had different thoughts, they could only sit in the city of sorrow.

The representative of the Boston consortium saw that everyone's faces were gloomy, and said with a smile: Let's observe for a few more days to see what the Northern California Solar Energy Company wants to do, and whether it really plans to build a super-large solar power plant. ”

"After that, we make a reasonable decision based on the investigation."

"Last time, it was too hasty, which led to failure, but this time we need to be more prepared."

"That's right! Mr. Darwin is right, let's take a look first. ”

"If we hadn't been too hasty last time, and a representative of a consortium wanted to get rid of his colleagues and trigger a rush to buy, it would not have caused such a situation at all."

"Totally agree! We have an unbeatable advantage, and if we plan well and work together, we shouldn't go wrong. ”

....

In the conference room, echoing was loud.

Although everyone knows that the failure last time was not due to being too hasty, but because everyone was in a hurry to seize the opportunity, they fell into the trap of the other party.

But how could they possibly admit it.

They have done a detailed investigation of all the information they can find.

But the other party is always like a shadow, haunting in the shadows, making people unpredictable at all.

To use a classic oriental proverb to describe: it's not that xx is incompetent, but that xx is too cunning to fail!

As a result, more than a dozen representatives of major consortia, after discussing specific matters, began to act like birds and beasts.

The conference room, which was serious just now, became empty in the blink of an eye, leaving only a table full of empty coffee cups.

The enemy is just too cunning!

Under the watchful eye of major consortia, the first thing Northern California Solar Energy did after the solar cell was manufactured was not to build a solar power plant.

Instead, security measures have been strengthened.

They also hired more than 50 additional security guards to closely protect the solar panels that had already been processed.

In addition to this, they also approached the Boston consortium and said - they want to be insured!

The Northern California Solar Energy Corporation has asked the Boston consortium to undertake tens of billions of dollars of insurance for this batch of solar panels!

This trick is not without ferocity!

If the Boston consortium is unwilling to underwrite, the construction of the power station will fail if the consortium obstructs it.

Then, the public will understand that this must be a few major consortia doing something inside, and at least it will make these consortia disgraced and embarrassed.

They can be insured, in case the final negotiation fails, and finally forced to use extreme measures, then the final bill has to be paid by the consortium itself.

And it's the Boston consortium, pay for it yourself!

In this case, the Boston consortium will definitely be resentful, and it is difficult to say whether there will be a gap between it and other consortiums in the future.

After receiving this news, the representative of the Boston consortium, who was still smiling, instantly fell into a dilemma, and made phone calls one by one with a bitter face.

The final answer was: No!

The above meaning is also very simple, the other party found their Boston consortium to underwrite, indicating that the other party is not confident in protecting the safety of solar power plants.

That can also reflect from the side that this mysterious underground force does not have any power that can be obtained on the surface to protect the safety of the power station.

According to the Boston consortium's considerations, there is a high probability that the two sides will eventually collapse, and the power station will eventually be destroyed and destroyed by other consortiums.

It is simply impossible to build up.

Let the Boston consortium come to endorse each other, they will definitely not agree!

The other consortia also secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the Boston Consortium was still of the same mind as themselves.

They visited back and forth, promising to mobilize the power of the consortium to help the Boston consortium and minimize the impact of the denial of insurance.

The representative of the Boston consortium here has just put his mind at ease.

The representative of the first Citibank, a heart tugged again.

Northern California Solar Energy Company, after being denied insurance from the Boston consortium, turned around and ran to Citibank to apply for insurance, and it was a high-profile insurance!

They invited hundreds of media outlets in the United States and held a press conference to tell them about their insuredness and rejection at the Boston consortium.

Immediately, they said that they would continue to look for new insurance companies to insure, and the next target was First Citibank!

At the press conference, a spokesman for the Northern California Solar Energy Company tearfully told the difficulties of starting a business in front of many media reporters.

All kinds of hints are directed at and persecuted by the consortium.

It is really the people who hear it are moved, and the listeners are in tears.

Is it wrong that they just want all Americans to have access to cheap, clean and environmentally friendly energy?

At the end, under the reflection of a flash of lights, the spokesman raised his arms and shouted: "I don't believe that in liberal and democratic America, there is not a company willing to protect our safety!" ”

"Long live America! Long live freedom! ”

At this point, a big performance that stunned all the consortia was staged in New York.
