Chapter 728 William's Viewpoint
Yang Cheng's eyes flickered. What he cared more about now was not the hard work he earned from reselling Glencore's oil storage business. Compared with the 100 million or 200 million U.S. dollars, he would undoubtedly earn more from Brexit.
As long as he stands still and lets the rolling wheels of history move forward according to the trajectory of his previous life, he can follow the example of Soros back then and launch a bloody snipe against the pound. I dare not say too much, and it will not be a problem to earn a new era of media.
But in this way, his investment in the UK will be directly abolished, and the British government will not allow a person who has sucked the blood of the British to continue to make money on the land of England.
Even Yang Cheng couldn't calculate the gains and losses of this back and forth.
More importantly, it seems that I can't help myself whether I stand still or not. Someone has already tied him to the warship. No matter what that person's thoughts are, I can't be alone. It is inevitable to stand in line, but which side to stand on? It's worth talking about.
At present, the turbulent Remainers are trying to use the "Paradise" document to challenge the British royal family, the main force of the Brexiteers, and Yang Cheng is their chosen pioneer.
But Yang Cheng is thoughtful, his head is unprecedentedly calm, and he is not so easy to be fooled. In other words, Yang Cheng has a slight delusional disorder of persecution. Before he sees enough benefits, he is used to thinking about things in the worst possible way. .
The Remainers tried to use the exclusive report of the "Paradise" document to lure Yang Cheng to make a move, which was undoubtedly a miscalculation.
And to be honest, Yang Cheng is more inclined to build a good relationship with the British royal family in his heart. No matter who is standing behind the Remainers, it seems that they are not enough in front of this family that has dominated the British Isles for a hundred years.
Facing William now, Yang Cheng really wanted to tell him about the 'Paradise' document, so that his grandmother could be prepared in exchange for greater favors.
But his rationality told him that this matter must not be leaked easily, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable, and he might be put in a desperate situation.
So, he didn't say what he was going to say, but changed another question, "William, the news of Brexit has caused quite a stir. You have to tell me the truth, what do you royal family think?" of?"
Yang Cheng's sudden change of topic caught William's surprise. After a long while, he asked with a solemn expression, "Why do you suddenly care about this issue?"
With a soft snort, Yang Cheng shrugged his shoulders, looking like a businessman chasing profit, "Why do you say? Now I have a lot of investors in the UK. If you decide to leave the EU, I have to make plans early. Everyone Not stupid, even if the UK can resist in the end, it will definitely cause economic downturn and social unrest in a short period of time, this is not an ideal place for businessmen to make money."
William took a deep look at Yang Cheng, seemed to be secretly relieved, and said, "I can't give you an accurate answer. Those who currently support Brexit believe that the UK must leave the EU to protect or even restore this country. identity, including culture, independence, and world status.
Of course, this argument is often associated with anti-immigration.
Those who support staying in the EU generally believe that staying in the EU is more beneficial to the British economy, and that compared with the immigration problems and other problems brought about by staying in the EU, the economic problems brought about by leaving the EU are more serious. The general thinking of your peers. "
Yang Cheng smiled and nodded, William's words were not unexpected,
Although it is not nutritious, it also indirectly reflects the overlapping of class gaps: people who lack education and wealth are often more willing to support Britain's departure from the European Union. This is because the poor and working class in Britain have a feeling of being abandoned. The issue has become a channel for them to vent their anti-system and anti-elite sentiments to the leaders of mainstream political parties in Europe and even the United Kingdom.
Of course, neither side, Remainers nor Leavers, sees the EU as a meaningful or laudable institution. not-my-race" point of view.
Not only the UK, but as the EU fell into one crisis after another, "Euroscepticism" has generally emerged within the organization, that is, arguments against the EU. From this perspective, the spread of the Brexit rumors has also revealed Many Britons and even Europeans have grown weary of the folk rhetoric, the perception that EU institutions not only fail to deliver on their high-profile promises but also create burdens, such as absorbing immigrants or aiding struggling economies.
After Yang Cheng laughed, she bluntly expressed her dissatisfaction with William, "You didn't face my question directly. If you can't give a clear signal on behalf of the royal family, what about you personally? Do you support Brexit or remain?"
In the face of Yang Cheng's urgency, William seemed very entangled. This is not surprising. Yang Cheng is his good friend and brother, and he has helped him a lot just now. He should be rewarded in public and private, but standing in the country From his point of view, he couldn't allow a big investor like Yang Cheng to withdraw from the UK because of his answer. It would be fine if he returned to the US, but what if he went to France or the UK? Is William counting as an enemy in disguise?
Sighing, Youyou said, "I can only say that I am also in a dilemma, and the reason for the Brexiteers is very firm, that is to restore control!
Since joining the European Union, Britain has lost its absolute authority over economic policy and regulations, which has troubled many Britons, especially the aristocracy, who see an aspect of traditional British culture under great threat.
For example, double-decker buses are about to be banned; or that fish and chips on the menu are written in Latin, which is undoubtedly a disgrace to the proud people of Great Britain.
The second is the immigration issue. A large number of immigrants who are willing to accept low wages are pouring into the UK. During this process, the British feel that they are losing their cultural identity and national identity. Gradually, I feel powerless and can't eat enough. "
Yang Cheng curled her lips and interjected, "However, you can prevent this incident from happening by reducing immigration from other countries, and compared with other European countries, Britain accepts quite a few immigrants."
William nodded in agreement, "That's right, but under the exaggeration of the media, what ordinary people see is that this country is being overwhelmed by an uncontrollable wave of immigration. In the media, labor immigration is often portrayed as an economic threat, especially Immigrants from Eastern Europe.
Under the pressure of the EU, the British cannot close their borders as they wish, cannot decide their own economic policies, and even one day, will they lose their sovereignty?
This is terrible, and the fear has always been in my heart from the beginning to the end. "
Yang Cheng squinted her eyes, feeling more and more heavy in her heart. I am afraid that this is the reason why the British royal family is firmly on the side of the Brexiteers. They are worried that the country built by their ancestors will be lost in the hands of this generation.
Of course, you can't say this to William, it's not a lantern in the toilet-looking for Shi!
William shook his head, let go of the thoughts he shouldn't have, and continued, "The Remainers didn't refute the reasons for leaving the EU, they just kept repeating the argument that being in the EU or foreign immigration is good for the UK. They are more The main point is to warn that leaving the European Union will deal a serious blow to the British economy.
Most businessmen or economists agree with this inference. Europe is the UK's most important export market and the largest source of foreign direct investment, and the status of EU membership is also extremely important for London to become a world financial center. Once the UK exits the EU , will destroy this state of affairs and lose many of the consequent high-paying jobs.
Among other things, as long as the United Kingdom confirms the start of the process of leaving the European Union, even if the rumors are completely spread among the people, then the depreciation of the pound will become an established fact and even trigger a wave of large-scale migration of people. "
Yang Cheng frowned, "Since we know the economy will decline, why do we insist on it? Is there anything more important than the healthy development of the economy?"
He is not a politician, let alone the leader of a country, so he thinks about problems from a simpler perspective, or the structure is too small. This is also the difference between him and William. Although his net worth is dozens or hundreds of times higher than William, it can be said that ZZ is sensitive Speed, the difference is not a star and a half.
William smiled, and didn't dwell on this question, but raised his index finger and said, "I can't give you an answer to this question, but I'll just say one thing, think about it for yourself, in fact, the UK has always held the European continent from top to bottom. Be vigilant.
You've been in the UK long enough to find people referring to 'the Continent' a lot, and even travel agency window ads showing flights and packages titled 'Go to Europe'. "
Yang Cheng was thoughtful, as if it was true, he was also familiar with this term, just like the people in Taiwan often called country Z like this, it seemed to be the same as the British, as if they themselves were somewhere other than Europe of.
In my ear, William's voice came, "Britain has always kept a distance from Europe, even when it was most supportive of the EU."
Yang Cheng became more and more clear in his heart. He probably understood what William wanted to express, that is, the British did not agree with the European continent from the bottom of their hearts. It is not surprising that when the referendum came, it was beyond everyone's expectations. More than half of the voters voted for Brexit. Maybe they didn't think too much about it. It was just a sacred vote they cast at will out of disagreement with the bad taste of the European continent.
You must know that the Brexit referendum is not the first time. As early as 1957, when the European Economic Community was just established, the United Kingdom refused to join. Triggered a similar referendum on leaving the European Union, only when the Remainers won.
In the ensuing decades, the populist faction against the EU has always existed. For example, the United Kingdom has never used the euro as a currency like other EU countries, nor has it joined the EU's Schengen area border opening agreement. They show pride.
