"Mind control?" Gao Xian frowned and said, "is this sensational term Mr. Hurst's latest definition of the relationship between Patricia and me?"
"Isn't it?" Randolph Hearst glared at the high string.
"Mr. hurst, don't be kidding. If I really have the ability of mind control, I will control you now, so as not to increase my troubles." Gao Xian said with an unhappy face: "the objective fact is that Patricia is the initiative in my relationship with Patricia."
As if to verify how correct Gao Xian's words were, as soon as the bedroom door opened, Patricia hurst, who was only wearing pajamas, went straight to Gao Xian, sat down on the sofa, leaned into Gao Xian's arms, and complained, "I had a good sleep. Can you stop making so much noise?"
Randolph Hearst was speechless when he looked at his daughter's overall initiative and incomparable intimacy with Gao Xian.
In particular, when Patricia Hurst's mother shook her head, the living room fell into a brief silence.
Seeing this, George Hurst smiled and said, "Patricia is lucky to escape from the extremist organizations unharmed; and the next life, as long as she feels happy."
Listening to the very pleasant high string, he said, "George's words are pragmatic!"
After finishing Patricia Hurst's hair, Gao Xian continued, "the situation now is that it's so stiff that even the minimum harmonious life in front of us will be lost."
George Hurst said softly, "Gao, what are you going to do with Patricia next?"
Gao Xian replied calmly, "Patricia doesn't want to give birth to the baby in her belly? Let's give birth! Anyway, she can feel happy! Anyway, I can give Patricia the best material and spiritual support."
"You must know my economic strength very well, and then you can know that I'm not talking empty words."
Patricia Hearst, lying in Gao Xian's arms, was very moved and said, "David, you are very kind to me. I'm so happy!"
Randolph Hearst could not bear to look directly at the scene. He simply got up and went out, and Patricia Hearst's mother followed him.
As soon as the two left, the atmosphere in the living room suddenly relaxed.
George Hearst smiled: "it's really surprising, but it's not bad. At the very least, David's financial resources and Hearst group's influence in the media are absolutely a match made in heaven."
When it comes to this realistic topic, Gao Xian unequivocally stated: "if you can have the opportunity to cooperate, I naturally look forward to it."
George Hearst nodded comprehensively, got up and said goodbye, "Patricia will ask David to take care of her for the time being. Patricia, remember to keep in touch with your family by phone."
After George Hurst left, Gao Xian asked Patricia Hurst curiously, "your oldest cousin should be the leader of your generation?"
Patricia Hearst nodded and replied, "it is estimated that my father will retire in two or three years, and he supports George to take over the position of chairman of the board of directors of Hearst group."
Gao Xian nodded suddenly and said in his heart, no wonder George Hearst showed such a realistic attitude during his conversation.
……
After arranging Patricia Hurst's life, study and so on with great money, Gao Xian quickly set off to attend the meeting of the trilateral Committee.
It is not difficult to imagine that an important topic of the trilateral committee meeting is the impact of the global oil crisis.
In fact, since the outbreak of the fourth Middle East war last year, that is, in October 1973, when the Arab coalition forces saw that they could not beat Israel in their careful preparations for the war, and then angrily launched an oil embargo, it has lasted less than half a year. The oil embargo was announced to end in mid and late March this year.
The Arab oil producing countries are willing to lay down the arms of the oil embargo, of course, without the mediation of US Secretary of state Kirchner.
Furthermore, it has made the United States anxious. It really dares to send American troops to occupy the oil fields in the Middle East.
You know, the impact of the global oil crisis triggered by the oil embargo is too significant, complex and far-reaching to be counted one by one.
In short, since the end of the Second World War, the overall economic expansion of Western capitalist countries has stopped. The international crude oil price has soared from US $3 to US $12 per barrel, the global stock market has collapsed, and the economy has entered a recession cycle.
The typical losses in the areas concerned by the Trilateral Commission are that the fart of chickens in the United States has decreased by 4.7%, and the unemployment rate is as high as 9%; The fart of chickens in Western Europe dropped by 2.5% as a whole, of which the fart of chickens in Britain dropped by 3.9%. What makes the British government even worse is that at the same time, the strikes of coal miners and railway workers were very fierce; The fart of a chicken fell the most, down 7%.
This is the impact of the first global oil crisis, which can be described numerically.
Of course, the impact of the first global oil crisis on the governance level is also very huge.
For example, it has always followed the foreign policy of the United States in the Middle East, and at the same time it is heavily dependent on the oil of Arab oil producing countries. In 1970 alone, more than 70% of its oil imports came from the Middle East.
As a result, on November 7, 1973, after the outbreak of the fourth Middle East War, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait announced that one was an "unfriendly" country, so they first reduced their oil exports to one by 5%.
One book was immediately blinded by this stick, because its economy is typically oil intensive at this stage. Even if it pays high prices to supplement oil sources everywhere, such as Gaoxian's oil field in Brunei, it still can not meet the demand.
So on November 22, an untenable book issued a statement that Israel should withdraw from all the territories occupied during the third Middle East war in 1967.
After more than a month, a book was regarded as an Arab friendly country with this "investment certificate", and naturally there was oil.
Some Western European countries have similar experiences. In the face of oil weapons, they began to try to draw a clear line with the US foreign policy in the Middle East.
In fact, oil fields in other countries other than Arab oil producing countries have not yet risen. Oil weapons can be so easy to use. A soft persimmon is right.
Compared with such positive governance effects, Gao Xian must pay more attention to the economic trend under the residual threat of the oil crisis after the end of the oil embargo.
In the process of attending the trilateral committee meeting, Gao Xian learned a lot of valuable and accurate information, which can be called every opportunity.
For example, the global oil crisis has made the concepts of national energy security and strategic oil reserves a hot topic, and the United States should take action on strategic oil reserves.
For another example, in order to get out of the economic recession cycle, all economies should increase their efforts to print money and release water, so as to further stimulate economic development.
Gao Xian estimated that through a multi pronged approach, the global economic recession should end next year, while the global stock market can take the first step and rebound from the bottom at the end of this year.
In addition, energy-saving products are beginning to be valued, and the most obvious example is cars.
Take the American market for example. The previous consumption habits were large tonnage and high fuel consumption models. Now we need to change our ideas. Otherwise, we can afford cars but can't afford oil.
In this case, Japanese cars must begin to show real advantages.
Gao Xian, who collects intelligence everywhere, also talked with David Rockefeller alone, but some words are worth pondering.
After taking their seats, David Rockefeller seemed to inadvertently mention that Gao Xian was kidnapped by symbiotic guerrillas some time ago, "these people are also poor people fooled by extreme left-wing ideas!"
While speculating on David Rockefeller's intention, Gao Xian slowly replied: "during his imprisonment by the symbiotic guerrillas, his so-called Committee specially showed me their Zhengzhi program. Now I'm too lazy to comment. In short, I'm not interested. I'm just a profit seeking businessman."
David Rockefeller said with a chuckle, "in retrospect, David's ability to pursue profits is so superb that even I have to bow down. According to the conditions of symbiotic guerrillas, the funds spent on distributing food in San Francisco are not hundreds of millions of dollars, or tens of millions of dollars, but it has no impact on the operation of your company."
Gao Xian smiled. "It all depends on the investment return of the No. 30 oil field on Eugene island in the Gulf of Mexico."
David Rockefeller joked, "doesn't the investment in the North Sea oil field count?"
His mind turned fast. While listening to David Rockefeller's nagging, he had thought of the recent situation of Chase Bank.
Although American businessmen search for gold all over the world, they may not be the best businessmen in the world. In the final analysis, the greatest advantage they rely on is the powerful military strength of the superpower.
In the same way, although David Rockefeller has good hands and eyes, his business skills may not be the best. Chase Bank, under his leadership, was hit hard by the global oil crisis.
Thinking of this, Gao Xian followed David Rockefeller's remarks and continued: "the return on oil investment is indeed very rich, even exceeding my expectations."
"However, making money is an addiction, which will only get bigger and bigger. Then I came up with an investment idea in the oil field."
David Rockefeller pursued with interest, "what do you think?"
Gao Xian replied carefully: "the crude oil produced by the No. 30 oil field in Eugene island is a sweet oil with excellent quality and low sulfur content, which leads to high prices in the international market."
"In fact, after getting the crude oil produced by the No. 30 oil field in Eugene Island, many buyers take it together with other crude oil and send it to the refinery."
"In other words, the crude oil produced by the No. 30 oil field on Eugene island is a very suitable crude oil for oil reserves."
When David Rockefeller heard this, he laughed, "is your new investment idea the idea of the federal oil reserve?"
Gao Xian nodded sincerely, "I plan to take out part of the income from the No. 30 oil field in Eugene Island, open another account in chase bank, and seek a loan from Datong bank to participate in the construction of the federal oil reserve, but I don't know how likely it is to win the bid."
"I think you should first consider qualification," David Rockefeller mused. "The federal oil reserve does allow private commercial companies to participate, but is your company an American enterprise?"
"I don't mind if the company is handed over to American citizens. Besides, the participation process must be carried out openly and transparently according to the rules of the federal government." Gao Xian shrugged. "In addition, I think there should be a mutual quota granting mechanism for the development trend of oil reserves around the world, which is an embodiment of openness."
"OK, then I'll introduce you to some contacts in charge of the federal oil reserve." after thinking for a moment, David Rockefeller nodded and then turned to ask, "have you ever been to the capital of China?"
"Not yet." Gao Xian shook his head, "but I'm going to go. Some time ago, after I was kidnapped by symbiotic guerrillas, the Chinese liaison office in the United States helped my fiancee a lot. For this reason, I must find an opportunity to visit to express my gratitude."
As Gao Xian answered, he suddenly realized why David Rockefeller mentioned that he had been kidnapped by symbiotic guerrillas in order to test his Zhengzhi attitude. David Rockefeller, on behalf of the Trilateral Commission, is afraid to arrange new tasks, just as he was sent to the Middle East after the outbreak of the fourth Middle East war last year to play a leading role in the Peace mediation of US Secretary of state Kirchner in his private capacity.
As expected, David Rockefeller continued, "that's better!"
"The trilateral Committee hopes to have more contacts with China. It is best to hold formal meetings twice a year and one in the Chinese capital."
"For a long time, Xiangjiang has always been the window for the world to contact China, and you are the most outstanding young talent in Xiangjiang. You are the most suitable candidate for the front station."
"I, the only member of the trilateral committee representing the Xiangjiang region, did not come so easily. It is estimated that David Rockefeller had thought of this utilization value when he came in." Gao Xian, who flashed the idea in his heart, agreed very happily. Anyway, he is not a traitor, but China at this stage, It is necessary to increase contacts with the western world.
Seeing that Gao Xian accepted the task cleanly, David Rockefeller smiled happily and said, "David, I knew that although you are the youngest member of the trilateral Committee, you are a strange soldier!"
