Chapter 899: 904

Raymond Johnston doesn't think it's surprising that Simon's grand plan to visit China is thoughtless.

In fact, many people around Simon think so.

The reason is too complicated.

If we want to discuss this topic, tens of thousands of words are not necessarily clear.

From the perspective of Raymond Johnston, it is impossible not to see the rapid development of China in recent years. However, the old man who has been focusing on Asian business should also realize the strong uncertainty of China's economy since its opening up in 1978.

This is actually the biggest concern of western capital.

In fact, this has happened many times in the past few decades. In many countries in Eastern Europe, Latin America, Asia and even Africa, with the change of political situation, opening up means opening up, and turning over means turning over. Then, no matter how much investment you make, you will confiscate it directly, and all debts and loans will be lost, resulting in heavy losses for investors.

This is the most important point.

In addition, political and cultural aspects.

In the final analysis, no matter how friendly the eastern and Western societies seem, they are not of the same origin.

If you are not of my race, your heart will be different.

This is not only a wise saying left by our ancestors on the other side of the ocean, but also deeply rooted in Western ideas. It is the instinct of almost all western elites to suppress the rise of foreign races. Therefore, Simon's approach to China will inevitably arouse the antipathy of many Western nationalists.

What's more, even after the establishment of diplomatic relations for so many years, fundamentally, the potential confrontation between China and the United States has never really been eliminated.

It is impossible for Americans to forget the two consecutive failures in Asia in the 1950s and 1970s.

Coupled with the drastic changes in the international situation after the collapse of the Soviet Union, there is no need to win over China to contain the Soviet Union. The United States has almost cleanly changed its attitude towards China. In the original time and space, throughout the 1990s, even though it seemed to be harmonious on the surface, all kinds of small US actions against China never stopped.

After all, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, China has become a little too conspicuous.

In front of the glass curtain of the shell villa, Simon heard Anthony tell the old man and said seriously: "the next few decades must be an era of globalization. In terms of economy, if China, which is already developing rapidly, is closed again, maybe we will lose a lot, but it is them who really hurt. So I'm not worried about that. In my opinion, the deeper China is introduced into the global economic system, the less likely some variables will be. As for politics, Tony, what we need to consider now is not the "politics" of the United States or Australia, but the "politics" of the westero system. I don't think many of you are out of this mindset

Anthony Johnston was stunned and nodded a moment later.

I can't help but feel the same emotion as the old man. If only it were the "politics" of the Johnston family. If There won't be any Westeros. It must be Simon Johnston now.

Alas, it's a pity.

In fact, after confirming Simon's identity a few years ago, the old man once wanted to make this relationship public, even in a small scope. He just took into account Simon's ideas, but he didn't do so after all. He planned to let it go.

Now that Simon has made up his mind, Anthony doesn't give much advice. He talks about several projects Simon is preparing recently, until Janet comes back to remind them that lunch is ready.

Anthony Johnston's visit to North America is mainly to personally deliver a box of invaluable technical information.

The vistro system spent more than $6 million on the more than 2000 pieces of information in the box, not counting the subsequent immigration costs of secretly receiving some cutting-edge technical talents.

However, in fact, it still takes a lot of advantage.

Because the things in the box can be described as the R & D achievements of the former Soviet Union, and their value is immeasurable.

After that, Anthony didn't wait much. After lunch, he left for Latin America again. Johnston holdings, which has also been expanding in recent years, is discussing some cooperation with Brazil recently. The main purpose is to add a part in the privatization plan of vale, Brazil's largest state-owned iron ore company.

Simon has been personally classifying a large number of materials sent by Anthony from the afternoon until the evening, confirming which materials should be given to which teams, or whether they are suitable, so he can take them out now.

Whether it's SpaceX, SolarCity or fusion times, Simon doesn't plan to start from scratch.

It would be foolish not to make use of the technology that our predecessors invested a lot of resources to develop. That's why the vistro system is directly undermining Ukraine's most important southern Design Bureau. Not only that, Simon will strive for NASA's technology accumulation in various ways.

These are treasures.

Simon doesn't have any moral problems about it. On the contrary, he thinks that countries all over the world can't communicate with each other on the same technology, and even abandon many technologies in the end, which is the biggest waste of human resources.The planet we live on is far from as rich as people think.

I don't know how long I've been busy. Janet appears in the studio on the ground floor of shell villa. First, she stands behind Simon and looks at the monitor on her desk for a moment. Seeing the man recover, she goes around the leather chair and sits directly in Simon's arms. Feeling the natural arm, she sticks her body back and asks, "how much have you finished?"

Simon knocked his chin on Janet's shoulder, smelling the nice smell of women. He operated the mouse with one hand and said, "I've only read more than 200 copies, and there are many more. I can't understand most of them. They're just categories."

These materials are basically in Russian. Simon's Russian is pretty good, but it involves professional knowledge. Because Russian is also Pinyin, not the Chinese hieroglyphic that can guess some meaning by means of glyphs, it will be very difficult to understand. But it's impossible to fake someone else. After all, it's too sensitive. Even two Jennie or girl a didn't call for help. It's not that they don't trust each other, but they just don't know Russian.

Janet leaned in Simon's arms and watched for a while. When Simon typed some notes on a document to classify it, she said, "it's already over seven in the evening. Let's have dinner first?"

Simon nodded, opened another electronic file and said, "wait a minute, the last two files on this CD."

Janet, after a while, continued to accompany her and said, "are we really going to have no problem getting these documents?"

Even with Janet's unruly nature, she knows that it is even more serious to get the information of this whole box from Ukraine than to steal one or two nuclear bombs.

Simon shook his head and said, "if it was Russia, I would not do that. Ukraine doesn't matter. After giving up nuclear weapons, the country has been completely abandoned. In fact, many people are doing this now. You see, these are electronic files. The real manuscript may have been taken away by others. "

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine chose to be independent and voluntarily give up nuclear weapons. Its economy is a pool of mud. Now, in the eyes of many people, this country is a fat sheep. We can share as much as we can.

Simon also felt sorry for the other side of the ocean.

In recent years, China has obviously failed to catch up with Ukraine's partition feast. It can only harvest some leftovers decades later, while Europe, the United States and Russia have basically got what they should get.

Unfortunately, all parties have not really made use of these technologies.

The root cause is still interests.

Or, to be precise, unprofitable.

It's like space.

In the next 20 years, why the United States has been buying the most famous rd-180 rocket engine from Russia is not that the United States can't make it. In this regard, the United States has a fairly complete technical reserve and has already mastered the rd-180. Even after receiving the Russian engine, it will make some improvements to use it in its own rockets.

Some people wonder, since there is technology, why not make it yourself?

Because it costs money.

Making rocket engines is not something that a group of people can do with their tools in the studio. The more sophisticated it is, the more sophisticated it is. First of all, it needs a full set of talents and production systems, which all cost money. However, the US space system, which has been used to spending a lot of money, can not keep its cost lower than that of Russia.

Later, when Russia and the United States began to fight each other again, the United States clamored to replace Russia's rd-180. However, it also found that even if there was technology, it would still be difficult to produce it in a short period of time. It could only support SpaceX. The main reason was that all the relevant industrial chains had been abandoned. If we wanted to pick it up again, we still had to burn a lot of money.

In contrast, SpaceX has established its own complete aerospace industry chain through more than ten years of accumulation.

It's like a mask when there is an epidemic. It's simpler. Why Europe and the United States still have to rely on China? It's also because the industrial chain has been abandoned and can't be recovered in a short time. In a capital society like the west, capitalists are not willing to recover. If they invest a lot of money and the epidemic is over and the mask is useless, wouldn't it be a big loss .

Therefore, even if the epidemic is over, it is difficult to improve the hollowing out of western industries.

Because you're going to lose money.

Except during war, of course.

This is not a simple benefit. Mandatory wartime laws will allow western countries to restart their industrial systems in a short time.

In fact, Japan's sneak attack on Pearl Harbor during World War II was only half done.

If we go a step further and go directly to the United States, we will not be able to mobilize all Americans to produce aircraft carrier ships as if they were dumplings, and the outcome will be unknown. However, it was basically due to the limitation of Japan's national strength at that time. It may have occurred to Japan that it could not do so. It had to sneak attack on Pearl Harbor and temporarily scrap the US Pacific Fleet to fight for time.

If anything happens again, even if there is a compulsory war law, the industrial system is unlikely to recover in a short period of time. Without considering that the use of nuclear weapons will be exhausted, if someone dares to seize this fatal gap, it is better to start first. Tut tut.After continuing to work on some documents, Simon and Janet leave the studio on the ground floor of shell villa together.

After dinner, Simon didn't go to the next floor to get busy.

Chen Qing sent someone in the afternoon to deliver the results of another round of selection of Guofeng Art Troupe. The last time there were 1000 people, after this round of selection, there were only less than 300 people left, and Simon had to decide the final 100 people.

Janet knew about it and joined in with equal interest.

However, Simon did not arrange any interviews and so on. Instead, he took a very simple and crude way to finalize the final candidate on the final list.

According to height.

At first, the recruitment requirement for the newspaper was 168cm-172cm, which was actually quite close.

Simon got the last batch of lists, and in the process of watching TV with two jennies that night, he drew out 100 girls according to the nearest standard of 170cm.

In fact, Chen Qing can do it.

Simon didn't, mainly because he knew the temperament of a girl, and it's hard to say whether he would make some small moths.

After soliciting her for a long time, Simon also finds that Chen Qing is a person who looks like him and Janet. She is very capable and seems to be very obedient. However, if she doesn't try her best to suppress her rebellious nature, she may make a lot of trouble one day.

All kinds of busy, time into the middle of March.

The biggest news of this period is that GE's acquisition of Time Warner has finally passed the examination of the US authorities.

More than four months have passed since Ge reached an agreement with Time Warner at the end of October last year and the merger was officially approved by the Ministry of justice, FCC and other departments on March 15.

The main reason is that the strength of Ge and Time Warner's involvement in the field have caused the fear of competitors.

In fact, Denise met this problem when she merged with Metro ABC at the beginning. It was only under Simon's successful mediation with all parties that the problem was basically solved properly. Therefore, it took a short time to pass the audit.

The merger of Ge and Time Warner was not so lucky.

Both GE's rival Westinghouse Electric and Time Warner's counterparts in entertainment, telecommunications and other fields have jumped out to raise all kinds of objections in the federal audit process of the deal.

Then it's to try to scuttle all kinds of wrangles in this deal.

For example, Comcast, which has begun to take shape at this stage, but its strength is not the top one, questions that the new company may launch unfair competition against its peers after the completion of the merger. Once the two companies merge, Ge will not only own a large number of other cable TV assets such as NBC TV network and HBO, but also have Warner communications, a cable TV operator similar to Comcast.

In this case, there is no doubt that GE will refuse to provide TV coverage to Comcast and other competitors in the future. Even if Ge doesn't do it on the surface, it will also cause serious unfair competition if it adopts differential pricing for operators in private.

In order to pass the merger audit, Ge must solve this problem.

How to solve it?

The best way, of course, is not to merge.

In fact, even without this merger, Time Warner Group, which owns popular HBO and cable TV operator Warner communications, also has the possibility to operate in this way. However, Time Warner has been doing these two businesses for many years. Before that, they were basically the default industry pattern of all parties.

However, once Ge annexes Time Warner, things will certainly be different.

With the current surge of new technology, coupled with the latest federal Telecommunications Act greatly liberalizing the regulation of the telecommunications industry, GE has begun to encourage the integration of three networks. As long as GE is not stupid, it will certainly increase its investment in Warner communications in the future, and further develop to a comprehensive telecommunications operator.

This poses a threat to Comcast and other companies.

Therefore, even if GE has made all kinds of compromises in the past few months, it will still be wrangled by a bunch of competitors. Ge can neither easily give up the merger nor give up the Warner communications business that it plans to make a strong bet on. It can only do it by yourself.

This continued for more than four months, but in the end, it was still superior and successfully passed the audit.

Of course, a lot of conditions have been paid.

For example, GE has made a series of public written promises to ensure that there will be no unfair competition. As for whether this promise will be strictly implemented in the future, we all know that it's up to you to come and go.
