After some contact, Pinochet determined at least two things about jazz Gao. First, of course, Gao Xian's strength, and then Gao Xian's reputation.
This "reputation" is very important for some "people with intentions", and one of the main basis is that Sir Gao did his utmost to treat the king Pahlavi in exile.
Although King Pahlavi, like a bereaved dog, experienced enough of the coldness of the world after he fled from Tehran, Gao Xian still regarded King Pahlavi as a noble customer as always. The service within the original scope of responsibility was unambiguous and continued until King Pahlavi's death. Even King Pahlavi's widow and children can still benefit today.
Who doesn't want to leave more room for himself? If one day the power falls to the ground and loses power, at least he can be a rich man.
When Gao Xian made a special visit, said hello and prepared to leave Chile for the next stop in Latin America in the next few days, Pinochet explored whether he could open a special account in Sir Gao's banking system.
At this stage, Xiangjiang has established its status as an international financial center. It is self-evident that it has many advantages, such as the freedom of capital in and out, the sophistication and concealment of operation.
Gao Xian neither demands nor refuses this kind of business. Whether Pinochet is a sinner or a hero in Chile's history has nothing to do with him. Moreover, there are many black box operations of financial institutions around the world. And perhaps, when the Hong Kong dollar can not escape the inevitable crisis, this secret fund, which should be indispensable, will help itself turn around.
Therefore, Gao Xian said very happily on the spot, "my bank is willing to serve the interests of Mr. President."
"Please." Pinochet smiled knowingly and asked about Gao Xian's achievements in Chile these days.
"If only I could get to know Mr. President earlier, now the cake in Chile would be finished." Gao Xian joked.
Pinochet said meaningfully, "come step by step."
Gao Xian nodded: "there is no doubt that the copper mine in Chile is the most attractive, but now the global copper mine market is beginning to weaken. I really dare not sell easily against the background of economic recession."
"Of course, during my inspection in Chile, I also found other findings. For example, with its unique geographical conditions and pleasant Mediterranean climate, and the brewing technology brought by French immigrants, Chilean wine has considerable advantages. If new processes such as stainless steel fermenters are introduced, the prospect of making the industry bigger and stronger is very worthy of expectation."
Pinochet couldn't help but brighten his eyes and began to swim and said, "Sir Gao, why don't you choose a place to build a winery in Chile? It's easy to say about the land price. Don't worry, with my care, no one dares to bully this investment. If there is a new phenomenon in the whole Chilean wine industry, it's the best of both worlds for us."
Gao Xian is really excited, because with the current background of Gao's consortium, even if you invest in an industrial winery in Chile, it doesn't matter in terms of risk, but once you succeed, the income will be considerable.
Thinking of this, Gao Xian answered with emotion: "thank you for your warm invitation, Mr. President. I'll arrange someone to invest in a winery here in Chile later."
Pinochet and Gao Xian, together with Pinochet's most trusted English translator, whispered for a long time and finally parted happily.
Before leaving, Gao Xian, who was very satisfied, kindly reminded, "Mr. President, the discussion on the economic crisis at the previous banquet was not just a talk among economists."
"Under the profound influence of the severe economic recession in the United States and the tight fisted monetary contraction policy of the Federal Reserve, Chile, whose currency is bound to the US dollar, is highly likely to have an economic crisis. You should be prepared."
Pinochet smiled and said, "thank you for Sir Gao's reminder. Please also bring my most sincere greetings to Mrs. Thatcher."
After leaving the door, the English translator waiting outside listened sadly: "Sir Gao, what did you talk about after President Pinochet kicked me out?"
"Don't worry, it's not a state affair. It's all a topic unrelated to Zhengzhi. For example, at the warm invitation of President Pinochet, I decided to invest in a winery in Chile." Gao Xian smiled and patted each other on the shoulder. He often said premeditated: "how are you thinking? If you come out of the government department and work in a commercial organization, you'll get a lot of favorable salary."
Under Gao Xian's deliberate solicitation, it is estimated that after returning to Britain, these special envoys and assistants carefully selected by Mrs. Thatcher will change jobs.
……
When Gao Xian and his party got on the wind pulling Concorde and left Chile, the British Royal Navy, which was ready, entered the battle site and officially exchanged fire with the Argentine army.
Although the Royal Navy encountered some setbacks, it also won the first battle, regained control of South Georgia, and sank the Argentine submarine Santa Fe, which wanted to sneak into the Royal Navy ship formation.
Major Sheridan, who was in charge of the military operation, sent a message to London, "tell your majesty that the Royal Navy flag has flown in the sky of South Georgia with the national flag. God bless the queen!"
After the British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher got the news, she was overjoyed and quickly informed the media, "celebrate with the world."
The British media, who used to take Xiangjiang land, a "hillbilly" in London's eyes, laughed and scolded and warmed up, naturally diverted their attention and began to desperately boast about how powerful the British army was.
Next, the exchange of fire in the Falklands war was transferred to the main area of the Falkland Islands.
It has to be said that even if Britain has its old capital, it still has the capital to boast. The Royal Air Force took off from the Asuncion island base in the Atlantic Ocean and did not hesitate to make a round trip of more than 12000 kilometers and 16 hours. After many times of aerial refueling, it has raided and bombed the airport in the Falkland Islands, which has set a world record.
As a result, air battles began to appear around the Falkland Islands.
Although the Falklands war was carried out at the "door" of Argentina, Argentina also suffered a little, because the length of the airport in the Falkland Islands was not enough to support the takeoff and landing of jet fighters, and then the main force of the Argentine air force still had to take off from home and fight over the Falkland Islands.
At this time, Chile's containment effect was reflected. Argentina was really afraid that its neighbor with territorial disputes would do harm behind its back. Coupled with the long-distance bombing by the Royal Air Force, even if the damage effect was limited, the threat of bombing Argentina's mainland could not be ignored. Therefore, the Argentine air force put the best mirage III fighter, Transferred to an airport far from the conflict zone in the north.
Chile provided such convenience, and the British side naturally appreciated it. The relationship between Pinochet's main house and Thatcher's main house suddenly warmed up.
However, as an anomaly in the attitude of Latin American countries towards the Falklands war, Pinochet is not without pressure.
So before leaving, Gao Xian gave advice to the customer: "in this war, ships are damaged. Mr. President can send ships to stand by in a safe area 200 miles away. When British and Argentine warships are damaged and need emergency rescue, Chile can give play to the humanitarian spirit."
Pinochet also has no remedy. As the saying goes, you can't have both fish and bear's paw. Since he chose to make a long-distance and close attack, check and balance Argentina and sell well Britain, he ignored his reputation, so he adopted Gao Xian's suggestion with the idea that nothing is better than nothing.
Facts have proved that to become a customer of high jazz, the price is absolutely worth it!
Before long, Argentina suffered a big loss. The cruiser general Belgrano of the Argentine navy was sunk by a submarine of the British Royal Navy. Thousands of officers and soldiers fell into the cold water in order to escape. Fortunately, Chile assisted in the rescue, picked up nearly 800 people and avoided the annihilation of the whole army.
The world is so intriguing. Chile's waist seems to harden all at once. You see, we don't deal with Argentina for the sake of national interests, but we are absolutely unambiguous in humanitarian terms.
Pinochet, who has basically finalized his visit to the UK, was excited to contact Gao Xian. He warmly invited him again and said, "Sir Gao, if you have time, you must come back to Chile to investigate. I really want to hear Sir Gao's advice."
