Smiling faintly, Li Mai shook his head slightly.

Ba Song's brows furrowed suddenly, and he felt a sense of disappointment in his heart.

Li Mai said lightly, "Mr. Ba Song, you just said that we do not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. In fact, as a Chinese company, we must also abide by this principle. I think you know what I mean. ”

Pointing at him and then at himself, Li Mai said, "You represent the authorities, and I represent FKY Company, and there can only be corporate actions between the two." ”

Ba Song said in a deep voice, "Mr. Li, I understand what you mean. However, you have to provide the help we need, and the right to dig and operate the Kra Canal as a price to pay. ”

Waving his hand, Li Mai said, "I have to correct a little." The Kra Canal is not a price you pay. I think you should be well aware of what it means for Thailand once the Kra Canal is open to traffic. ”

After a pause, he said, "Today's Singapore, which is tomorrow's Thailand, may be better." The right to excavate and operate, Mr. Ba Song, do you think that according to the level of your country's enterprises, you can take on the role of digging the Kra Canal and operating it?"

Ba Song wanted to speak, but Li Mai interrupted him a little impolitely and continued, "Don't mention anything to me about dominance and control. From the day the Kra Canal was proposed, these things were out of the realm of contention for the Thai people. You know what that means. ”

Bowing his head slightly, Ba Song couldn't refute Li Mai's words.

There are many powerful countries around it, aside from the big China with good relations, the Yankees, India, the three polar bears, the little Japan, etc., all of them are waiting to eat with their mouths open. Although the national power of the polar bear has been greatly weakened by the loss of the Far East and the Tangnu-Ulianghai region, its essence is still there, and its influence cannot be underestimated.

The world society is very realistic, only a strong country can have a strong country, and only a strong country can have the right to speak. In the past, Thailand may have been just a tourist destination in people's eyes, but once the Kra Canal appeared, it became a hotspot for the world's politics, economy and military. The so-called guilt is what we are talking about.

Of course, Pa Song understands that once the Kra Canal is completed, the Thai people will not be able to have more say in it, the bloody reality, the helpless reality, but who makes himself a weak country - in the eyes of China, Britain, the United States, Russia and France, it is a weak country.

The Kra Canal project is not a new project, but one that has been in existence for many years. How many administrations have considered this and made many decisions. What Ba Song has to do is actually very simple......

"When you can choose, make the right choice, your choice, and maybe you can choose a brighter path to a rich country. Li Mai said.

That's right, what Ba Song needs to do is very simple, make a choice, when several big people want to control the dominance of the Zhì Kra Canal, make a choice, in the current can still choose.

Slowly raising his head, Ba Song said in a deep voice, "Mr. Li, I think that the significance of the Kra Canal project to our country is not as great as you described. ”

"Then it's up to me how I plan to build the canal. Li Mai smiled slightly.

Obviously, there is no doubt that Li Mai is well prepared. No longer tempting, Ba Song honestly said, "I admit it. But, as you know, I'm still Prime Minister of my country, and without the support of this administration, the Kra Canal would have remained on the drawing board forever. ”

"That's why I'm sitting here today. Li Mai tugged at the corners of his mouth, his tone was a little heavier, and said, "Okay, Mr. Ba Song, you are a smart person, and you know your situation and I know it." Does your condescension to negotiate with a private business boss like me illustrate the urgency of the crisis you are experiencing? You've decided to choose us to work together, so I'll move on, or that's the end of it. In addition, FKY will never interfere in the politics of your country, which is a fundamental principle. ”

"Do you need to think about it?" asked Li Mai, staring at Ba Song.

The corners of Ba Song's mouth twitched slightly, and he had the illusion that the person sitting opposite him at this moment was not an entrepreneur, but a head of a country.

After coming back to his senses, Pa Song sighed slightly in his heart and said, "In view of the friendly relations between the two countries, I think that the Kra Canal to FKY is more conducive to helping the Thai people quickly move into a happier life." ”

Li Mai nodded his fingers, "Honestly speaking, there is no doubt about this. I can tell you a little bit, I will invest 300 billion soft yuan in the Kra Canal project, at the very least. ”

Ba Song was petrified all of a sudden, which was a terrifying investment.

"The Kra Canal will not be a simple navigable river that connects the two ends, I will create a modern industrial belt along the river, more than 100 kilometers long, you think, how many jobs will be provided to your country, how much income will it bring. Li Mai said with a slight smile.

"Is this the plan you've already set?" asked Ba Song in disbelief.

Li Mai tugged at the corners of his mouth and said, "You'll be in for a surprise." ”

It took Ba Song more than a minute to digest the information thoroughly, thinking that as long as the project was signed and the concrete plan made public, all the discontent of the people would disappear and the opposition parties would not find a stronger reason to criticize him for his incompetence.

The crisis will be solved.

However, the problem came back around.

Ba Song said worriedly, "Mr. Li, the problem is that I am in a very dangerous situation right now. As you obviously know, the opposition parties are very powerful, and what is worse is that Chaiba is on the side of the opposition parties, and he controls all the special forces units of the army, just outside of Bangkok. ”

Li Mai shook his hand and said, "That's your business." As I said at the outset, the premise of our cooperation is that you can continue to be Prime Minister. If you can't do it, I will naturally find a way to cooperate with the new prime minister. ”

As he spoke, Li Mai said in a stern tone, "Mr. Ba Song, I must emphasize once again that FKY will not intervene in the politics of your country. ”

"But as far as I know, your rival, the Hard Silver Company, has reached an agreement with Chai Ba to provide the necessary support for their seizure of power. Behind it is the even more powerful Sumitomo Group. "If you don't do anything, they'll win the Kra Canal project in one fell swoop." I think that even if you have another way to get the new government to tear up the cooperation agreement with the Japanese, the end result can only be a lose-lose situation, and the Kra Canal project will return to its original state. ”

Li Mai adjusted his sitting posture and said lightly, "You don't have to worry about this, I naturally have a perfect way." That's just a waste of time, maybe a year, maybe two years, but never more than three years. I am well prepared for all kinds of situations. ”

"Mr. Basson, I think that's all for today. I don't think you can make a decision right now. You can think about it before replying to me. ”

Li Mai stood up and stretched out his hand. Ba Song stood up and shook his hand.

Nodding, Li Mai said, "Looking forward to meeting you for the second time." ”

After speaking, Li Mai turned around and walked out, Ba Song looked at Li Mai's back, and exhaled deeply, as if he wanted to expel the depression in his chest.

Many people don't know that in this wooden stilt house by the river, there has just been a conversation that has had a big impact on the world......
