Chapter 1311 Body in Cao Ying, Heart in Shuhan
Regarding the issue of cooperation, the consortium is quite confident. Because in their view, as long as you are a smart person and a qualified capitalist, it is absolutely impossible to let go of the olive branch they throw out.
This will be an opportunity for the richest man, as long as he can grasp such an opportunity, then maybe he can become the first consortium on that continent. And what a consortium means, they believe that the richest man Wang will not understand this. No one can refuse such a temptation, so he will definitely stand on his side.
Strictly speaking, there is nothing wrong with such an idea, and the richest man Wang also gave them the answer they wanted. But in fact, has the richest man Wang really made up his mind to cooperate with them? This point is probably only known to Wang Shoufu himself, and at this time, he actually evaluates these consortiums in his heart, which is nothing more than a bunch of bad words.
That's right, badass. This is what the richest man thinks about these consortium forces who want to win him over in this way. Although the consortium's conditions are indeed very attractive, the statement that it will do its best to help Wang's richest man build China's first consortium is enough to make anyone lose their minds. But Wang's richest man is like a mirror in his heart. He knows that consortia are not so easy to achieve, especially in the territory of China, this is even more impossible.
What does a consortium mean? It means controlling a very important part of a country's resources and markets with private power. To extract benefits in a near-monopoly way, and to counter the country with an almost exaggerated volume. Strictly speaking, all of this is indeed the ultimate dream that any capitalist can have. But such a dream will only exist in the United States, not in China.
A country that does not take the capitalist road will never allow capitalists to have such a detached position in the country. Especially after seeing the history of the U.S. government being coerced and oppressed by these capital consortiums, they will not go down the same path. And once someone tries to copy the consortium model to the country, it goes without saying that the country will use practical actions to tell you what is the iron fist of people's anger when the people are the masters of the country.
There is no doubt that this is a big pit, a minefield. How could he not understand this to be the richest man in the world. So from the beginning when the consortium said they would cooperate with him in this regard, he had already sentenced the consortium to death.
This group of evil spirits is not dead, so I am sorry for the great revival that China has planned for decades. So for sure, he has already found the right direction for his position. Let's just follow the country honestly.
This idea became more and more affirmed in his heart. After completing the signing ceremony, Wang Shoufu had already quietly contacted Tony.
By now, he had roughly guessed what Tony was thinking. From his point of view, as a strategic partner, Tony's current status is really strange. He is obviously the president of the United States, but what he has done makes it hard for you to believe that this is something that an American president can do.
Because judging from all his actions, he is almost harming the interests of his own country. Especially for the consortium, it is simply prying the foundation of one's own country.
Because any capitalist in the world knows that the real reason why the United States was able to be the only superpower in the world in the past is not only because of its military and technological strength. No matter how powerful the military is,
His opponent is not weak either. In this era when modern warfare is in full swing, even the United States absolutely dare not guarantee that it can defeat any potential opponent by itself. The same is true for technology, although the top technology of the United States can make most of the competitors in the world feel the gap. But today, with the rapid development of science and technology, this gap is no longer an irreparable problem.
So, why can the United States maintain its detached position in such a fiercely competitive 21st century? The main reason is that, under the premise of superior military and technological power, he still firmly holds the dominant position in the world economy. As long as the U.S. dollar’s gold standard remains unshaken for a day, the dominant position of the United States will remain unbreakable. And this position is not supported by the heavily indebted U.S. government, but by the big capitalists and consortia in the United States.
Those huge consortiums have their roots in the United States and their tentacles all over the world. They suck blood in every corner of the world every moment to feed back their roots. It can be said that the help of these financial groups is an indispensable and important factor for the United States to retain such a large size in today's declining situation. But now, the Stark government actually wants to get rid of them. Such an approach really makes the king's richest man disagree.
He really couldn't imagine what America would be like without the consortium. Just like he couldn't imagine what would happen to his company without the support of those shareholders. That would definitely be a disaster, and it would even say that the entire United States would fall back decades.
Even as a businessman, he can see this, and he has no reason to believe that a recognized smart person like Tony can't think of these problems. And since he still insists on doing this, the richest man can only say that there is still a clear thinking distance between himself and this special guy.
He didn't want to delve into this issue, because it didn't have much to do with him anyway. His position is based on China's side. So he has no reason to worry about the president of the United States. It is enough to do well what he is going to do and obtain enough benefits for himself and even for his country. As for the rest, leave it to Tony to worry about it himself.
After thinking about this point clearly, the richest man opened his mouth when he contacted Tony, and told him the whole situation on his side.
"I've signed contracts with Fox and Viacom, and now these two companies belong to me. The same is true for Fox Network and CBA that you asked for. So, our deal should be considered complete. Alright."
The richest man Wang bought Fox, which was part of Tony's plan. But Viacom, this is something he didn't plan. Tony is actually very disgusted with such a part that exceeds his plan. Strictly speaking, he doesn't want Wang's richest man to win Viacom. Because in his opinion, the influence of the Chinese in the American media industry is already too inflated. Although they are in a cooperative relationship now, it is hard to guarantee that there will be a trend that the tail will not be lost in the future. So immediately, he questioned the rich man Wang with some dissatisfaction.
"You didn't do what we agreed. Aren't you afraid of accidents when you do this? This is the cooperation between me and the government behind you. If something goes wrong, let alone me, even the government behind you will I will never let you go."
"Don't worry, things are going smoothly, right? If the result is a failure, I will certainly not escape punishment. But now that everything is developing in a good direction, then naturally there will be no such extra things. Moreover, Shi Your Excellency Tucker, don’t you want to know why things went so smoothly? I think my answer must be able to surprise you.”
"Surprise?" At this moment, it was hard for Tony to believe what kind of surprise the richest man Wang would give him, but out of instinct, he still asked this question. Hearing this question, Wang Shoufu immediately laughed.
"You can guess, who is secretly helping me and helping me take down Viacom? I don't think you can guess the answer."
"Who is it? Isn't it your own hands and feet?"
There are important things to be busy at hand, and Tony's concern for this side is still limited. All he knew was that the richest man Wang had mortgaged a huge amount of money in order to acquire Viacom. As for the others, he didn't have a deep understanding. This made him interested in the topic that the richest man brought up at this time. At this time, any slight change is worthy of his attention.
"Me? You think highly of me, Lord Stark. You must know that from the very beginning I was prepared to fight a long war. In fact, since the negative news came out in the media, I have been very concerned about this acquisition. I have a bad premonition. Lei Shidong is not a good person. If it is really a head-on confrontation, the capital in my hand may not be able to leverage everything Lei Shidong owns. But the direction of things is leaning towards me Even saying that I didn't even exert my strength, the whole Viacom has already opened the door to me and asked me to surrender. Faced with everything like this, don't you think it's strange?"
"Why?" The reason was really strange, and Tony couldn't figure out why for a while, so he immediately asked. And this immediately caused the richest man Wang to laugh happily.
"No reason. Because an absolutely impossible force helped me. You can never imagine, Lord Stark. The consortium of your country has already offered me an olive branch. Viacom is their meeting gift .They want to cooperate with me, and want to shift their focus to my country. This kind of approach really makes me sigh with emotion, what a big deal. But unfortunately, they may not have thought of it. I It's going to be on your side. In other words, they're siding with the enemy. Seriously, I really want to see what they'll look like when they find out the truth. I think, That's going to be fun."
Such an answer was indeed beyond Tony's expectation. However, in addition to this unexpected, he felt a little more unexpected joy. Wang's richest man's line actually connected with the enemy, which really surprised him. He has already thought of a lot of means that can be manipulated through this line, and all these tricks directly prompted him to explain to the richest man in this way.
"Find a way to contact them, and try to give them the illusion that you are standing with them. Believe me, Mr. Wang. As long as you do this well, the entire United States, and even your country, will give Your greatest compliment. You can get a lot, including everything you couldn't imagine before!"
