You've seen plenty of shameless people, but these two duos sent by the Americans have taken shamelessness to an unimaginable level.
Xing Baohua suggested that they try to seize it through legitimate means, and accept the consequences if they lost.
Don't they realize that this is a company worth hundreds of billions? If it goes public, its value will multiply several times over. Who would be foolish enough to throw money into a fierce battle? Soros, that bastard, made three or five billion from the foreign exchange market and was hailed as a god.
How much money would those Wall Street bastards need to raise to go head-to-head with Xing Baohua's team? The Desert Country Third Consortium are people who treat money like dirt; when they're short of cash, they just drive up oil prices.
Money comes to them like a whirlwind. If Yawei is attacked in the financial markets, they can easily crush the attackers with their money without Xing Baohua even having to lift a finger.
There's also Temasek Holdings and China Merchants Group; either one would be a difficult opponent. Why would you let them team up?
Therefore, those American conglomerates wanted to take advantage of Xing Baohua's newly established company to invest and double their profits. They weren't interested in the satellite itself, but only in Asia Satellite Communications after its IPO.
How to handle Xing Baohua?
As always, safety is paramount!
Your products are manufactured to be sold, right? If you want to make money, you have to go to developed countries. Europe and America are developed countries, and they call the shots when it comes to making money.
They used this to pressure Xing Baohua and force him to comply.
Xing Baohua knew that if he tolerated it this time, he would make even more outrageous demands next time.
I had been on guard, carefully avoiding provoking the Americans, but who knew trouble would still find me.
"ON!" Xing Baohua said this word several times tonight.
No matter what tactics the other party used, Xing Baohua only said one word: ON!
reject!
Wade said with a cold expression, "You're being dangerous. We don't like someone who can't be controlled."
"Threatening me! Do you believe the two of you won't be able to leave Hong Kong? With your small group, you're really no match for me." Xing Baohua suddenly sat up straight, glaring at Director Wade.
Then Xing Baohua added, "Believe it or not, I'll expose your NSA's wiretapping activities and let the whole world know that communications in Europe and America are always under your surveillance, with no privacy whatsoever?"
Seeing that the two were about to have a falling out, Old Bu's advisor quickly said, "Alright, we're all in it for the money, not for fighting. Xing, if we ask you to give up Asia Pacific, we'll compensate you in other ways, how about that?"
Xing Baohua leaned forward slightly and asked, "How will you compensate me?"
“We will open up markets and provide support for you in other areas, Xing, to be honest. What you’re doing is a real threat to us. Think about your companies in the US, aren’t they all profitable? As long as you don’t get involved in the tech industry, we will allow you to expand your influence in the US,” the old advisor said slowly.
Xing Baohua remained silent, pondering the matter, and did not speak for the time being, but weighed the options in his mind.
If we insist on using this satellite company, our business in the US will...
It's not a fair comparison! Gu Wei is right. If they want to suppress you, they'll destroy you from the root. They won't let you earn a single penny in the US.
This is so damn frustrating.
How can you compete when your company is operating under the same system as a country? It's an unequal, devastating blow.
They've directly cut off your economic lifeline overseas, making it difficult for you to recover.
“You know I own an aviation logistics company. I need a transport aircraft production line. I don’t want large aircraft, I only need a production line for medium-sized transport aircraft.”
"If you won't let me work in space, can't I work in civil aviation?" Xing Baohua made this request to test the waters.
Wade said, "Congress won't agree."
"Then I'll buy the An series."
"That's a large aircraft, not a medium-sized one."
"If you won't sell me a medium-sized production line, can't I even buy from the Russians? If this isn't acceptable, and that isn't acceptable, what are we even talking about? Why don't you just have your agents kill me? Wouldn't that be much easier?" Xing Baohua said, his anger flaring up.
Wade said, "We have an extradition treaty with Hong Kong. Think it through. I can issue an arrest warrant for you to be tried in the United States. Your legal team will be of no use."
"You think you can scare me? I might not be able to beat your country, but I can certainly beat you! You think you'll ever step down and retire?"
Seeing that the two had reached another impasse, the consultant stood up and, playing the peacemaker, said, "You two calm down. There's no need to kill anyone. Xing, listen, we can let you through the automotive and shipping industries, as long as you don't cross our bottom line."
"Cars are out of the question. But I also need airplanes and ships. And I need one of your decommissioned aircraft carriers to be used as a themed hotel, right in Victoria Harbour, right below my new building. I want to stand on the bow and play golf."
Wade and the consultant looked bewildered and exchanged glances. The consultant asked Wade, "Do we still have any aircraft carriers from World War II?"
"There should be! I'll ask those guys in the national team."
"Take apart the important things and give them to him."
Xing Baohua blinked, regretting it. Who the hell wants something from World War II? I want the kind with steam catapults.
But I can't say it out loud, I can't even bring it up.
"I also want to retire my battlecruiser."
"What do you want that thing for?" Wade stared at Xing Baohua with wide eyes. Did this guy want to open a World War II museum?
It's important to know that the US still had quite a few heavy cruisers, battlecruisers, and battleships from World War II in service at that time.
It's not like you can just sell someone after they retire; there are some very complicated things involved.
Most of them were used as targets and sunk, and sinking them was the cheapest way to deal with them.
If there are indeed recycling companies in their country that buy this junk, the government will symbolically charge a small fee to sell it, about one dollar as a symbolic fee.
