In the Black Palace, Benjamin finally couldn't bear the commotion in his heart and burst out.
"How dare they?! How dare they?"
"Mr. President, Soros's actions in Titanium this time..."
Benjamin became even more irritable after hearing Soros, “Don’t mention that person’s name to me again!
Let him figure it out on his own, the money in the Quantum Fund is not his money! "
After spraying two more words, Benjamin took a breath and calmed down before asking: "What is Soros going to do next?"
"He decided to directly switch to fight in the Southern Dynasties."
"Huh, he's still sane!"
After talking about Soros, he turned the topic back to the Titanium Nation and stated directly: "Now we don't have the energy to do anything to the Titanium Nation. You don't want me to sign any sanctions bill."
Others were scratching their heads for a while. Obviously, the mess within the United States was already enough to give them a headache. If this were to cause trouble for the Titanium Kingdom, another black swan might emerge.
In fact, the most fundamental reason is that they really can't make up any story as an excuse to invade the Titanium Kingdom.
If Yingjiang wants to take action against a certain player, there are only two ways:
1. Send troops to start a fight.
2. Suppression through economic means.
But no matter who it is, they have to make up a story to convince the other four talkers.
The reason for attacking Babylon is to fight terrorism, and the reason for the economic suppression of Persia is because Persia is using heavy water nuclear reactors. These two excuses can barely fool other people. What everyone thinks in private is one thing, but on the scene it seems that they are all right. This is another story. Something happened.
But what story should Yingjiang make up to suppress the Titanium Kingdom?
Benjamin ran through a series of stories about terrorists, nuclear threats, and endangering the safety of Blue Star in his head. He found that he couldn't find a good excuse for the time being.
Then he began to think about the influence of the Titanium Kingdom on the United States.
First of all, Tau has no oil.
Secondly, Titanium has now developed from an agricultural country to an industrial country.
In fact, the fact that the Thai baht is pegged to the RMB will not actually have any impact on the United States.
Speaking of RMB, after the credit crisis four years ago, the Mainland and ASEAN reached a series of free trade agreements and currency swap agreements, RMB began to become popular among Southeast Asian people.
Now it is a hard currency that can be compared with the US dollar, and this time the Thai baht is pegged to the RMB, it just makes this matter clear, and its impact is really not visible in a short time.
But the United States is unhappy with the expansion of the RMB's sphere of influence. This is enough.
So the question went round and round and back again: "If the Titanium Nation is suppressed, will we and the major financial groups gain any substantive benefits? I mean substantive benefits that are not mixed with personal emotions?"
Unexpectedly, his adviser said directly without thinking: "This will help us establish our prestige internationally!"
After hearing this, Benjamin exploded again: "Get out! Isn't our current prestige enough?
It is because of our prestige that the domestic subprime mortgage market has not collapsed yet!
I'm asking about substantial benefits! "
At this time, other officials were also stuck. They really couldn't tell what benefits they could gain from suppressing the Tau Nation.
If this is done against the Chip Alliance, there may be many people who will support it, because the Chip Alliance is competing for jobs with many domestic companies, and it is still because it is worried about the subprime mortgage market that it has not started substantive actions against the Chip Alliance.
And the Titanium Nation?
Well, Titanium Country is quite famous for its rice. . .
All in all, they all came to the conclusion that suppressing the Titanium Kingdom regardless of appearance would not only not earn face for Yingjiang, but also lose any dignity.
This is different from suppressing Mao Zi. To do so is political correctness, because Mao Zi has the potential to threaten Eagle Sauce's status. But if you suppress the Titanium Nation, how can you use the rmb in the hands of the Titanium Nation? It's not a good thing. nothing.
It will also greatly worsen Eagle Sauce's image on Blue Star. Other players will only see that after Titanium was sniped by Wall Street this time, it pushed Wall Street to the ground and hammered it, and then learned from the experience that it is not safe to peg the U.S. dollar. Only then changed to rmb.
As a result, Yingjiang came to invade the Titanium Kingdom, which was too ugly.
Now the big boss Yingjiang is still in the "human beacon" stage and has not yet undergone the second stage of transformation, so some things are still very particular about food appearance.
This matter will even be opposed by some people in the country, because many people either have certain assets in Titanium Country or are doing business with Titanium Country companies.
Even if the location of the Titanium Kingdom is very good, can Eagle Sauce directly occupy it?
Just like everyone in Blue Star knows that the East Black Chiefs Alliance is the largest supplier of raw materials to China’s dairy industry.
Some red-necked farmers and agricultural giants in the United States have lobbied Congress countless times, wanting Benjamin to send troops to East Africa, but even the bosses of the military-industrial complex only have two words - haha.
The reason for sending troops to Babylon and suppressing Persia's economy is because these two players have more oil and can control the oil here, and what can they gain by sending troops to East Black.
A bunch of farms?
Only a mentally retarded person would agree to send troops to Donghei.
The same is true for the Titanium Kingdom this time, but the fact that the Thai baht is pegged to the RMB is another thorn in everyone's heart.
So Benjamin is very entangled. The current situation is that no matter what he does, it is not good for the United States. However, the personal impact on him is also gradually beginning to shift the balance.
Because he didn't want to suppress the Tau Nation, not for anything else but for his position as commander-in-chief.
Although Yingjiang is still a beacon of humanity in the eyes of most of the melon-eating people in Blue Star, it seems that he can hit whoever he wants, but this does not mean that he can really hit whoever he wants. For Benjamin, the commander-in-chief The same is true for.
If the Titanium Nation is openly spoken out, it will definitely cause a series of chain reactions. Because the Titanium Nation is still the main force in ASEAN, ASEAN will also be dragged into the water. Benjamin can also predict the consequences. One bad move will cause If a new black swan incident occurs, then he, the commander-in-chief, will probably be like Palmer and only serve one term before getting out.
In fact, he sympathized very much with Palmer. Some of the things he did were indeed good for the United States, but they were not very friendly to many giant companies and the military, so he just left.
But now that it was his turn, Benjamin had always learned this lesson. Since it was not cost-effective to publicly suppress the Titanium Nation both publicly and privately, he could just say a few words without any pain.
At this time, Benjamin's assistant suddenly walked into the room where a group of people were talking and quickly broke some bad news.
“The latest official news from the Titanium Kingdom is that the new Prime Minister has decided to visit Oumeng to discuss the free trade and investment protection agreement between the two parties.
Aims for the total elimination of all tariffs.
Machinery, electrical appliances, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, textiles, food and other industries will be implemented immediately after the relevant agreements are signed.
Tariffs will be eliminated within seven years on auto parts, motorcycles, food preparations, wine, spirits and other products.
Tariffs on cars, chicken, pork, and beer will be eliminated within ten years! "
After hearing the news, a group of people couldn't stand it.
"Holy shit!"
What is this damn thing going to do? !
RMB was already very distressed after the backstab, but now even Ou Meng is joining in the fun? !
"What should we do now?!"
Benjamin was also having a big headache at this time, and Ou Meng's joining made him even more entangled. Attacking the Titanium Kingdom at this time was equivalent to attacking both a large country in the east and Ou Meng at the same time.
Not to mention a certain big country in the East, it has always been like that.
The relationship between the United States and Ou Meng has only begun to recover less than two years after the last trade war. Now this move is expected to collapse again, and there is still a huge thunder waiting for him in the country.
Benjamin thought a lot in his mind, and in the end he had no choice but to set the tone: "All discussions about Titanium will stop immediately. If any of you have time to go to Titanium, we can also sign a series of bilateral trade agreements with Titanium. No matter what No matter what, the Titanium Nation is still worth our efforts to win over."
"OK."
