Benjamin looked at Heller and several generals at this time.
"That's the way it is, I don't think it's a good idea, what do you think?"
Heller also spoke up and said that they also loved peace, and even joked about Benjamin.
"Starting a war for the hyenas on Wall Street that is destined to suffer heavy losses even if you win. I think Asher can start preparing to use this war to force re-election. I actually don't care."
Although they didn't mention it much, they all knew that this time the opponent was not only ASEAN, but also the "banker killer" standing behind ASEAN. The position of the banker killer was already clear to everyone, so it seemed that it was only for 600 million people. thing, but the 1.4 billion people must be taken into account when considering it.
But the good news is that although the situation in Southeast Asia has changed, it has not affected the operation of the Yangbayi Strait. Even the ship traffic has been increasing recently, because at this time Southeast Asia has completely lost The living soil of pirates.
The most important thing is that the RMB has appreciated and the export share is still increasing. This strange situation has surprised many Blue Star economists.
Everyone can understand the appreciation of the RMB. Because the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis has caused the US dollar to weaken, it is normal for the RMB to rise. However, no one expected that Southeast Asia suddenly started a large-scale construction mode, and a group of Chinese capital in Southeast Asia actually lent money to various ASEAN countries. Players go and do big construction.
Now, there is no need to doubt ASEAN's ability to pay. A huge market of 600 million people purchases various bulk trade goods from China, the world's factory, which directly puts China in danger due to the impact of subprime mortgages and the appreciation of the RMB. The share of exports given to milk is back.
As for the problem of ASEAN's lack of money in the future, everyone is not considering it now. Judging from the scale of this large-scale construction, it is estimated that it will not be completed in a short time.
In other words, China's export trade companies can enjoy this wave of dividends for a long time. Coupled with the large quantities of cheap raw materials imported from ASEAN, the cost of various export commodities has been further reduced. Therefore, the subprime mortgage crisis has had a great impact on ASEAN and China. The impact was simply eliminated invisibly.
Now hot money and investors around the world are optimistic about the RMB, and a large amount of international funds have flowed into the mainland, which in turn is a great benefit to the mainland's stock market and real estate.
And Benjamin no longer wants to worry about what kind of chess is being played by a large country in East Asia. This year is the most critical year for him. If he makes a bad move, he will have to get out, unless he is really prepared to rely on war to be re-elected.
So for this hedgehog-like opponent in Southeast Asia, Benjamin was actually relieved after the Pentagon also expressed its opinion that it did not want to fight.
At this time, he asked the social science boss: "Mr. Ross, what do you think if I initiate a bill similar to the Industrial Recovery Act now..."
Before he could finish speaking, Heller and several Pentagon generals were immediately shocked, and Heller quickly tried to persuade him as if his buttocks were on fire.
"Asher, if you do this, no consortium will support you. Even no one in the military-industrial complex will support you. Fifty years ago, they managed to survive Roosevelt and get rid of the shackles that pressed him. Now they have to How is it possible for the situation to return to the same situation as it was more than fifty years ago?”
Ross also shook his head and said: "Mr. President, you must have seen the effects in Southeast Asia and want to try it at home.
However, the domestic situation is different and the various obstacles are too great. This matter still needs to be considered in the long term. . . "
After hearing this, Benjamin could only sigh with regret. It is too difficult to reproduce Master Luo's policies now. At that time, it was because Blue Star's world factory was the United States, which had enough productivity to start the nationwide construction. The tertiary industry in the United States now accounts for 80%. Although 19.1% of the manufacturing industry is high-end, it is very difficult to start large-scale construction.
To put it simply, the cost is a bit high, and there may be no consortium willing to pay, and the official money is not enough.
"Okay, I'll think of another way."
. . .
Not only Benjamin and his group knew about the situation in Southeast Asia, all parties in the United States almost knew it after Benjamin’s meeting. Wall Street, especially Goldman Sachs, all became furious after learning about the Black House’s decision.
"How dare they? How dare they call us imbeciles?!"
"To send troops, we must persuade the military to send troops!"
It's a pity that even the Morgan consortium has a negative attitude towards the proposal to send troops, so consortiums like Goldman Sachs, which focus on the financial industry, have now become a minority. This time, all parties tacitly ignored the Goldman Sachs group.
Dongmeng's attitude also unknowingly affected many consortiums in the United States, making them realize that their status in the United States did not rely on the insurance companies and banks under their names, but on their own military-industrial enterprises.
Even the mafia families and the IT geeks in Silicon Valley are actively working hard to improve their status in the military-industrial complex. So why do Goldman Sachs, who only play with money, dare to be so arrogant?
A group of people at Goldman Sachs were suddenly horrified. They suddenly discovered that although they usually had a lot of success in the Blue Star financial market, in the face of the current situation, they could not speak at all in the entire circle. Morgenstern Lee can speak because behind them is the Morgan consortium, the largest defense contractor in the United States.
And all the manufacturing assets under his name are light industry, and there are only some leftovers from heavy industry, because heavy industry is a high-risk, high-investment, low-return project, and most of the people in charge of the Goldman Sachs consortium are very shrewd Jews. How could it be possible? What about entering these thankless industries?
Now they finally realize why even a group of people in Silicon Valley are desperately trying to sharpen their heads and develop in the circle of the military-industrial complex.
This suddenly gave them a serious sense of crisis. If ASEAN's clear-cut attack on Wall Street only made them feel that Wall Street's financial hegemony in Blue Star was affected, but now they realize that Goldman Sachs's position in the United States is actually not what they imagined. It's so high.
They must make certain changes now!
After gritting his teeth, Solomon went to the Black Palace to visit Benjamin. The two talked for a long time, and Benjamin seemed very satisfied when they finally left.
. . .
A week later, Chen Yi looked at today's news in confusion, with only one thought in his mind: Yingjiang is crazy!
“Yesterday, U.S. President Benjamin Asher announced at a press conference that he would consider reaching a relevant bilateral trade agreement with ASEAN to boost U.S. export manufacturing.
ASEAN spokesperson responded that it would consider increasing the share of imports of agricultural products, meat, fertilizers, high-end metal materials, petroleum and other industries from the United States. "
"The CEOs of the three major credit rating agencies, S&P, Moody's and Fitch, have publicly issued an apology, saying they are sorry that the ratings of certain financial derivatives have caused unnecessary losses to a large number of investments."
“The Wall Street Journal said Goldman Sachs will join forces with Silicon Valley to create a series of money management tools, deposit accounts and other products for large companies.
This may imply that Goldman Sachs will vigorously expand the development of commercial banks. Let us wait and see whether this move means that Goldman Sachs will enter more industries. "
"Reuters reported on February 8 that on Wednesday local time, US Secretary of State Robert stated after the Black House meeting that Congress had passed the relevant bill proposed by Benjamin, and the official would take active intervention measures in the economy and people's livelihood to lead the United States out of the financial crisis. crisis and restore America’s economic vitality.”
"The Black House discussion on the Afghanistan withdrawal bill is nearing completion. An official claimed that the troops stationed in Afghanistan are expected to officially begin withdrawing in the second half of this year."
“Apple Times stated that in order to reverse Wall Street’s negative public opinion among the public, Goldman Sachs CEO Solomon publicly stated that he would invest US$100 billion in various public works projects within five years to renovate public infrastructure in the United States.
Morgan Stanley President Gelman later said that in order to get the United States out of the shadow of the economic downturn as soon as possible, Morgan Stanley will also invest 50 billion in related public works projects. This move is only to create more jobs and reduce the unemployment rate.
In this regard, the public's negative public opinion on Wall Street has decreased. Regarding the sudden changes of Goldman Sachs and Morgan, a person in the Kuromiya who did not want to be named said that Goldman Sachs CEO Solomon had a secret meeting with General Benjamin three days ago and reached a certain agreement. Agreement, but whether the news is true remains to be seen. "
