Chapter 1592: 1600

On the estate of Williamsburg on the northwest outskirts of Washington.

This is April 26th.

Wednesday.

During breakfast, Simon made an appointment with David Rubin, chairman of Carlyle group headquartered in the special zone. The topic was still about the layout strategy in Southeast Asia, mainly hoping that Carlyle, which is good at investing in relevant fields, would organize a number of heavy industrial projects to move to Southeast Asia.

At the table.

David Rubin browsed a list of intentions given by Simon in the fields of steel, machinery, chemicals and shipbuilding, put down the folder and picked up the tableware again, Side road: "Simon, because of your request, I have been focusing on China in recent years. I can finally be sure that China is a market with great growth potential, and we can continue to add our layout in China. I have also made some understanding of Southeast Asia. Due to political, religious, cultural and other reasons, I think the trend of this region should eventually be similar to that of Latin America , there is not much investment value. "

Simon did not refute David Rubin's judgment. To be fair, he largely agreed. He took a sip of a cup of hot milk at hand, "David, I had dinner with the president yesterday and happened to talk about one thing. Bill and they have a very consistent attitude. Now I am not just a pure businessman. Therefore, many subsequent layouts of Westeros system can not be considered only from the perspective of pure business."

"I understand, Simon," David Rubin nodded. "In your current position, you can't be separated from politics. The problem is, if you are in the Federation, it makes sense. As for Southeast Asia, whether you intend to contain Japan or China, frankly, I don't think it's necessary."

David Rubin was right, and Simon wasn't surprised, say: "David, I have explained too much to many people recently, so I don't want to explain too much. I just need the cooperation of Carlyle. Moreover, you don't need to consider other factors other than business at all. You just need to abide by your own duties and help contact various projects. In terms of capital, if other investors of Karen are unwilling to participate, I will bear it alone."

Girl a happened to deliver a dish in person. David Rubin didn't immediately respond to Simon's request. He stepped back a little and asked the famous miss a next to westero to put down the plate, and then motioned to the opposite side: "bring me a glass of milk, too, and heat it up, thank you."

Girl a nodded and agreed. She just looked strangely at her boss on the other side.

When girl a leaves, David Rubin continued: "In that case, Simon, I promise you. But I still don't think it's wise. Although Carlyle has been doing various heavy industry relocation projects, I still firmly believe that heavy industry is a major advantage for the Federation and our allies. We can eliminate some unnecessary heavy industry projects to third world countries, but we shouldn't take the initiative to do so."

"So, here's the question," Simon said. "David, why do we keep phasing out all kinds of heavy industrial projects?"

David Rubin was speechless for a moment.

Simon Gu continued: "because of some projects, we are gradually caught up with and even replaced by countries we despised in the past, and they have a stronger cost advantage, right?"

David Rubin nodded, "that's why we have to keep the advantage we still have, don't we?"

"I think the opposite of you," Simon said "There is an interesting philosophy in the East, which is that water flows to the lower place. I think capital and industry are the same, and will inevitably continue to flow to areas with lower costs. For many industries that we have no absolute advantage, we should take the initiative to transfer them to areas with lower costs while still maintaining certain advantages, so that we can continue Continue to enjoy the benefits generated by these industries. On the contrary, if we don't, ah, South Korea is an example. "

Girl a enters the door again and Simon pauses a little.

David Rubin took a cup of warm milk put down by girl a, thanked again, sent it to his mouth and tasted it. He felt slightly different from the fragrance from the opposite side, but he didn't study it deeply. He put down the glass and motioned Simon to continue.

Simon went on: "For example, the shipbuilding industry in South Korea has formed a considerable scale before 1997, and this industry was not produced with our support, but made by the Koreans themselves. However, with its own cost advantage, the shipbuilding industry in South Korea has formed a strong impact on the relevant fields of the United States and Europe. If it was not for the crisis in 1997, we We can have a strong penetration into the Korean shipbuilding industry. As a result, our shipbuilding industry will not only be further impacted by the lower cost Korean shipbuilding industry, but also we will not be able to enjoy the benefits brought by the rise of the Korean shipbuilding industry. Similarly, there are more profound lessons, as well as Japanese cars and semiconductors. "

Simon's words, which almost overturned some habitual ideas of David Rubin in the past, immediately made him a little silent.

The rise of Japan's economy can be described as an eternal knot in the hearts of most American elites.

Who could have thought of it?

Moreover, in the past, the American elite reflected more on the fact that the restrictive measures against Japan were not tough enough, which led to the problem of raising tigers. Therefore, since the 1980s, they have put a series of extreme pressure on Japan. Until a few years ago, they were still launching a trade war against Japanese cars.

Simon's remarks directly opened another layer of thinking that David Rubin had ignored in the past.

In the final analysis, the biggest reason why Japan or South Korea can catch up from behind is actually very simple: cost!

If the Federation wants to regain control of various fields, one thing it must and can only do is to pursue lower costs. If it wants to pursue lower costs, it has to carry out industrial transfer.

After combing for a moment, David Rubin finally said, "Simon, I have to say that you helped me recognize a fact that has always been ignored in the past. However, taking the initiative to carry out industrial transfer is not so simple. Have you considered the possible response of domestic industrial capital in the federal government? If we move too much, they will certainly unite to put pressure on Washington?"

"One of the business principles I've always followed is that instead of being replaced by others, I'd better take the initiative to replace myself," Simon said "Of course I've thought about it, but even under pressure, we still have to do it. However, you just limited yourself, David. We don't need to pull the wool just according to the sheep of the Federation. Oh, it's a joke. Well, I mean, keep your eyes open, Europe, even Latin America, well, Japan and South Korea. In short, we must take the initiative this time Rights, as well as a sufficient share of profits that must belong to us. "

David Rubin nodded, not in a hurry to discuss the details, but changed the subject: "I just heard that you lobbied the president to visit Vietnam in August for this plan, right?"

"Yes," Simon admitted, smiling again. "What do you think of Vietnam?"

David Rubin thought about it a little and said, "putting aside the prejudice caused by historical reasons, I have to admit that Vietnam has great potential to grow into a mini China."

Simon just smiled and didn't comment too much.

History has changed. For Vietnam, Simon is not sure about the future. All he can decide is to do it.

The two then began to discuss some specific details and talked for more than an hour.

At more than eight o'clock, David Rubin was sent away. Simon returned to the villa, and grace immediately greeted him.

Simon came forward, hugged the woman, kissed her, looked down, glanced at the scarf on Grace's neck, smiled and said, "it's beautiful."

Grace has white eyes.

Some guy left a lot of marks on her neck last night, which can only be covered up like this.

Simon seemed to be interested. He came up again and was about to take a mischievous bite on the woman's chin. A waitress led a little boy out of the corridor.

Simon could only stop being intimate and loosen the woman. Simon smiled and came forward, picked up John westero, who was more than two years old, turned to grace and said with a smile, "my son is so old. He was still a little bit in the cradle last time."

Grace originally looked gently at the interactive father and son. After hearing the man say so, she wanted to roll her eyes.

Last time I was in the cradle!

Is this human speech?

Simon ignored the woman's anger and turned to the little guy in his arms: "baby, call dad."

The little guy looked at a man holding him with beautiful blue eyes, turned to his mother, and turned back again, as if in some doubt.

It doesn't matter. You must be patient with children.

Simon then continued: "baby, call dad, Dad ~ dad ~"

The little guy continued to look seriously at the man around him and turned to his mother.

Grace almost laughed and couldn't help reaching out. She took her son from the man's arms and learned the man's tone: "baby, call mom."

The little boy immediately said, "Mom."

Simon: "

It feels wrong.

Um.

Don't stop me. I'm going to clean up this black boy.

Grace finally laughed, held her son to avoid Simon's big hand, laughed, and finally said to the boy in her arms, "baby, this is Dad, no pranks."

The little guy was exposed by grace, subconsciously glanced at someone, and then buried his head on his mother's shoulder.

Obviously, he is still not very cold to his father.

Simon doesn't insist. With so many children, his personal energy is really limited. It's strange if they are very close to themselves.

Even in the future, Simon doesn't expect any father's kindness and filial piety. As long as each little guy can become a talent and hold up a piece of information that he should have as the heir of the Westeros family, it's enough not to become the devil of the world as predicted at the beginning.

Although it's unreliable to be a father, Simon consciously chose to be a mother one by one. Obviously, all of them are very dutiful, and none of them spoil their children in the direction of dandy.

After a few more words, girl a led a team of waitresses to pack up and come out. Then everyone set out to leave the villa here and fly to New York.

In New York, in the next few days, in addition to the work of danilis TV business, there are also some matters related to the layout of Southeast Asia in the next few days.

For example, for the industrial transfer to Southeast Asia, Simon will not only hope that Carlyle, the headquarters of Westeros, cersei capital system and Wall Street investment banks such as Goldman Sachs and First Boston will participate in it one after another.

Of course, things spread out quickly and vigorously, but Simon was not impatient.

For example, in Vietnam, in addition to the meeting with a Vietnamese Deputy Prime Minister in Kuala Lumpur a few days ago, Vietnam, from the authorities to enterprises, are in close contact with this side these days. However, Simon will not rush until Clinton visits Vietnam in August to finalize a series of economic and trade agreements.

In general, this is a long-term plan that will take 10 to 20 years to carry out sustained layout.

In addition, it has to be said that Simon's series of actions have also caused feedback from China. Chen Qing doesn't have to say that Lin Su, who focuses on her two little guys in Hangzhou, has been entrusted with the task of inquiring Simon's voice. Simon knows that Chen Qing has spare power to deal with it. It's hard to say on Lin Su's side, so he didn't speak clearly to avoid embarrassment for women.

Women are not stupid. Even if Simon doesn't disclose much, she can probably guess some. However, since Simon doesn't make it clear, she is also very easy to explain.

This is a very simple thing.

Simon has never said that the Westeros system in Asia will only bet on China to invest in Southeast Asia. Frankly, there is no need to explain China at all.

Moreover, in the final analysis, Simon is only considering the future interests of Westeros system.

Feng Shui turns in turn. What Simon has to do is to ensure that no matter whether Feng Shui is in Hedong or Hexi, it will not fundamentally damage the interests of Westeros system

It's not just Asia.

After continuous thinking, Simon is worried about the future. Even in Europe, Simon's attitude is more serious. During this period, he began to re plan some things.

Like the euro.

As the only competitor of the US dollar in the world in the next two decades, Simon was still watching a series of combined punches against the euro by the federal government last year. Now it is found that this is not lively, but closely related to the Westeros system.

If the US dollar really declines in the future, the Westeros system will be hard to survive, and once the US dollar declines, the euro may be the most powerful substitute.

In that case, of course, we can't sit idly by.

Besides the euro, there is Eastern Europe.

Simon had seen before that Eastern Europe after the disintegration in the early 1990s was not only a potential commodity market for Western Europe, but also a source of a large number of cheap labor.

Since you see it, you can't be indifferent.

What the Westeros system needs to do next is to combine relevant capital and compete for this part of the demographic and market dividends of Eastern Europe as much as possible, which cannot be left to Western Europe to digest.
