MTL - Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat-Chapter 424 Chances of Containing America
Chapter 424 Containing America's Opportunities
Fang Lang knew in his heart that in fact, even if he didn't participate in this matter, other people would soon promote it. Therefore, it is better to take the opportunity to seek greater benefits for himself than to blame himself.
After taking out the justice cup and adding a cup of tea to Joseph Clark, Fang Lang slowly said:
“The current society is still a capitalist society, and the governments of all countries are also capitalist governments, and what needs to be safeguarded is also the interests of the bourgeoisie.
If the U.S. government can come forward to help them stabilize the local political situation and solve the food and clothing of the local people, then this kind of arrogance by the United States will become less important.
Even, when the local government is unable to resist, the US government can take the initiative to stand up and help them solve this problem. I don't think they would think that this is an act of arrogance, but they would welcome it, maybe? "
These words made Joseph Clark deep in thought, and he quickly realized that if it was really like what Fang Lang said, these governments might not be able to deal with it. At this moment, I wish the US government could stand up and help them immediately!
"But, does this have anything to do with what you said about General Marshall introducing business to us?
The White House should send the US military to directly implement this kind of thing! "
Fang Lang smiled and said:
"The direct participation of the U.S. military is of course a good choice. But in this case, the political meaning will be too obvious.
And if the U.S. Department of Defense or the local European government hires some professional military consultants or mercenaries from a military contracting company with sufficient strength.
to carry out this plan to attack the armed forces of the opposition, do you still have this feeling of arrogance? Do you think this is the interference of the US government in the internal affairs of the local government? "
Joseph Clark's eyes widened when he heard this, with a shocked expression on his face. But soon the shock turned into excitement again. He slapped his thigh, stood up directly from the seat, and danced to Fang Lang:
"Oh my god! This... this is really a big business! Boss, you are a **** genius."
Looking at Joseph Clark, who was already a little incoherent, Fang Lang smiled reservedly, took a sip of a cup of tea, and slowly put it down.
Actually, the reason why Fang Lang brought up this business with Joseph Clark was also inadvertently thought of during the past few days of reflection.
After all, his words may have promoted the emergence of Lao Duism in advance, although this can bring him huge benefits. But the souls from later generations are still unwilling to let Americans taste the taste of the world's police immediately, and become more unscrupulous in the future.
So, he thought of this plan to hire a military contracting company, so that not only can his military contracting company develop rapidly, but also allow him to earn more money.
At the same time, it can also prevent the US government from sending troops directly. If the U.S. government hadn't sent troops directly, wouldn't it be necessary to establish so many military bases in European countries?
If the United States can reduce the number of military bases deployed around the world, will it greatly weaken the political influence of the United States?
Of course, my own company may not be able to take such a large order, coupled with my own identity background, also determines that the US government will not absolutely trust itself.
But what does it matter? At least I can make a lot of money from the intervention of the United States. At the same time, it can also reduce the political influence of the United States.
And turning this kind of government military behavior into a commercial behavior has another advantage, even if the military contracting company needs to build some military bases during the operation.
The company's military base and the government's military base are two completely different concepts. Once the governments of various countries regain control of the situation, they will certainly not allow these companies to have such a military base on their own soil.
And for the sake of its own profit, it is impossible for the company to maintain the operation of a military base that it does not need for a long time. After the mission is over, these bases will definitely be withdrawn voluntarily.
In this way, will the common military bases in the United States be greatly reduced in later generations?
That is to say, if once implemented according to his plan, Fang Lang may turn the military operation carried out by the US government to contain the Soviet Communist Party into a military operation to contain US hegemony.
Of course, this containment is invisible. After all, no one in the current U.S. government knows that after the implementation of Lao Du’s doctrine, the U.S.-Soviet struggle for hegemony will allow the U.S. to have so many military bases around the world.
All of this is a secret that only Fang Lang himself knows, and it must not be shared with anyone else. Seeing Joseph Clark blushing, he was so excited that he couldn't control himself.
Fang Lang pressed his hand, smiled and gestured:
"Right now this is just an idea of mine, the actual realization will still depend on your efforts.
That's why I asked you to hire some influential people from the retired generals of the United States to serve as consultants for the company.
With these people coming forward to help us lobby the government, it is possible for us to take over this huge business. As for how much money we need to invest in the early stage, it doesn’t matter. As long as we can win this business, our efforts will definitely be rewarded thousands of times . "
After Fang Lang made a statement that funds were not a problem, Joseph Clark seemed more confident, and said directly without hesitation:
"Boss, I understand what you think!
I think the feasibility of this matter is very high. Please rest assured that I will do my best to win this business. "
Fang Lang nodded with a smile, indicating that he understood.
General Joseph Clark seemed to be greatly stimulated, and finally controlled his emotions, stood up and said to Fang Lang:
"Boss, then I'll go down first!"
Seeing that the other party really didn't intend to talk to him about his nephew Charlie Cole, Fang Lang also felt a little strange. Since he is entrusting such an important matter to the other party now, of course he still has to untie his knot of.
So, in the end, Fang Lang decided to take the initiative to speak, stretched out his hand and pressed down, motioning the other party to sit down, and said unhurriedly:
"General Clark, don't worry, I have a private matter to talk to you about."
Joseph Clark, who was still immersed in excitement on the opposite side, was taken aback when he heard the words, but he quickly reacted, and said to Fang Lang with some hesitation:
"Boss, do you want to say something about Charlie Cole?"
Fang Lang nodded when he heard the words and said slowly:
"This incident made me very difficult. The other party made such racially discriminatory remarks at the banquet I hosted and insulted my girlfriend. This made me very angry.
However, considering that he is your nephew, it is not easy for me to take action against him. so."
Before Fang Lang could finish speaking, Joseph Clark said directly:
"Boss, don't look down on me, I don't have such a nephew.
And it wasn’t just you and your girlfriend he made about it, I knew this guy was a total white supremacist a long time ago.
Even my uncle doesn’t know how many times he scolded me as a yellow-skinned monkey. If his father didn’t understand some things, our two families would have already cut off contact. "
Fang Lang didn't expect that this Charlie Cole would even discriminate against his uncle, which is really a strange flower. But from Joseph Clark's words, it can also be found that the other party still has a certain affection for Charlie Cole's father.
This made Fang Lang guess in his heart that Charlie Cole's becoming like this has something to do with family education, and there are some discrepancies. Since this is the case, Fang Lang couldn't help hesitating in his heart, whether it was necessary for him to be cruel to this family.
It seems that Joseph Clark did not intend to intercede with himself, he asked with some doubts:
"Didn't their family ask you for help recently? After all, their business should be greatly affected now!"
Hearing this, Joseph Clarke sighed at Fang Lang with a wry smile on his face, picked up the tea on the table and drank it in one gulp, calmed down his breath, and then slowly said:
"Why didn't you ask us for help? However, the fault of this matter is Charlie Cole himself. As an adult, he should be responsible for his actions.
As for your Universal Group, stop cooperating with their family business, these are normal business practices. From the beginning to the end, you did not harm his personal safety because of his remarks.
In my opinion, this is already a very restrained act of revenge, what else can I say. "
Fang Lang watched Joseph Clarke's expression carefully, making sure that the other party did not lie or conceal it, and that what he said were the true thoughts in the other party's heart. No wonder the other party didn't come forward to talk to me.
It turned out that in the eyes of the other party, everything he did was taken for granted, and he did not do anything out of the ordinary.
Fang Lang really wanted to tell him that his revenge had not yet begun! But now that he knew the other party's attitude, Fang Lang hesitated a little.
To be honest, Joseph Clark can now be regarded as a general under him, and the military contracting company he is in charge of is also a very important part of his own industry.
If he directly takes action to destroy his nephew Charlie Cole, the other party may not say anything, but he will definitely have some bad thoughts in his heart. This is what Fang Lang doesn't want to see.
However, if I don't do anything, I can't swallow this breath in my heart. well! It's really hard to be a human being!
"Where do you know the current situation of their company?"
"I heard that it is very difficult. Many cooperative companies have cut off cooperation with them. My wife has also been anxious for a while, but there is nothing we can do."
Fang Lang knew that the actual situation of Cohen Company was much more serious than what Joseph Clark said, because of Alvin Rockefeller's statement, the shares of Cole Company leaked thousands of miles the next day.
The stock market assets directly evaporated by 70%, and the companies that cooperated with them announced the termination of cooperation one after another. The business volume also shrunk on a large scale. Banking institutions also began to stop issuing loans to Cole Industries, and at the same time began to collect loans that were about to expire. loan.
This made Cole Industries have to choose to sell part of its business to stabilize people's hearts. In just half a month, Cole Industries' company size has shrunk by 60%.
And the root of all this is simply because of some discriminatory remarks made by Charlie Cole at the banquet. As for whether this loyal supporter of white supremacy has tasted regret, Fang Lang doesn't know.
"Please express my condolences to Mrs. Clark for me."
After learning about Joseph Clark's attitude towards this matter, Fang Lang has no interest in continuing to struggle with this matter.
Hearing Fang Lang's words, Joseph Clark stood up and gave Fang Lang a military salute:
"Please rest assured, boss, this matter will not affect my loyalty to you. Our Clark family is an Indian family of yellow race, not a vassal of the Cole family.
will not stand on the same front as the Cole family. "
This statement can be regarded as a complete expression of Joseph Clark's attitude towards this matter, especially the statement that the Clark family is a yellow family of Indian descent, which can be regarded as expressing his dissatisfaction with this kind of white supremacy.
Fang Lang got up and returned a military salute:
"It's an honor that we can continue to fight together!"
After sending Joseph Clark away, Fang Lang sat in the office and thought for a long time. Because of the existence of John Clark, he was still very grateful to the Clark family, so it didn't seem like he had a bad relationship with the Clark family.
Now is considered the best result. As for how to deal with Charlie Cole in the end, Fang Lang hasn't made up his mind yet. Now his idea is to see if there is a possibility for Cole Industry to rise again after this blow.
If the opponent can rise again, he will definitely push the opponent to the ground without hesitation, because this time everyone has formed a bridge. If the opponent is given a chance to make a comeback, he may finally make the opponent his opponent. Fang Lang would never allow this.
Time passed quickly. Due to the rainy season in Brazil, the domestic operations against Brother Eddie's rebels had to be suspended, giving the opponent a rare chance to recuperate.
The acquisition of Caterpillar initiated by the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family was also successfully completed. In just one month, this factory that produced bulldozers and tank chassis changed hands twice and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Universal Group.
Immediately afterwards, all the designers of this company were gathered together, and Fang Lang personally organized a technical seminar for nearly a week, focusing on the research of brand-new asphalt concrete material construction machinery.
At the same time, Fang Lang also introduced to everyone his vision of future construction machinery, such as bulldozers, excavators, shield machines, etc. Of course, Caterpillar's original advantageous machinery such as generator sets and mining machinery have not fallen behind .
In contrast, the Swiss-based Bank for International Settlements, the change of shareholder information is even more secretive. Apart from a brief notification to the central banks of several other governments, this matter has not caused any waves at all.
After all, the current Bank for International Settlements is basically out of business.
Immediately afterwards, due to the promotion of the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family, US President Adu officially delivered a speech in Congress at the end of February announcing the birth of Laoduism, and officially started the decades-long cold war. This is nearly twenty days earlier than in history.
With the unremitting efforts of General Clark and the help of the new Secretary of State Marshall, the military contracting company recruited several influential generals from the retired generals of the United States.
The lobbying team composed of these people successfully persuaded the US Department of Defense to contract out some of the more dangerous military tasks as an experiment in private contracting military business.
If the expected effect can be achieved, this brand new model will be widely used in the later stage.
