Chapter 1314 Laying out the core industries for the future
This is not the first time that someone has mentioned cooperation with him in front of the richest man Wang, and it is not the first time that someone has used such a reason to talk to him about cooperation. But different people say the same thing, and the effect is very different. These words came out of Curwen's mouth and from the mouth of old Morgan, and they were not of the same grade at all in terms of weight.
Therefore, even if Wang Shoufu has already made up his mind what to do, it is inevitable to hesitate at this time. No one knows more about the preciousness of opportunity than a businessman like him. If he misses this, then maybe he will never have such an opportunity again.
But thinking carefully about the possible consequences, and thinking about the price he would have to pay if he really did this, Wang Shoufu still cautiously restrained himself, allowing himself to stop in time in the face of this temptation.
As a Chinese businessman, the biggest difference between him and these capitalists is that he knows what it means to be in awe. Perhaps these capitalists have long been accustomed to this kind of lawless life because of the long experience of holding state power, but he is not unable to do this, because he knows that there are still several forces in this world that can sanction him.
The era of capitalist domination of the world is long gone, and the most powerful power in the world is still in the hands of the governments of those countries. In the past, the U.S. government might have allowed people like them to exist, but now that the Stark government has made it clear that they will not tolerate these guys anymore.
So, since this is a ship destined to sink, why would he want to mingle with them and embark on a path of doomed destruction?
Thinking of this, Wang Shoufu immediately had a smile on his face.
"You're right, Mr. Morgan. I need a little help. Whether or not I can get to the point where the Morgan family is in the end, it will be an opportunity for my career to grow rapidly. Reasonably, I shouldn't have missed this opportunity. So, what do you think I should do? In what direction should I work with you? ”
That's a good question. Although we are only meeting for the first time, according to you Chinese, the most important thing for people like us to avoid is to talk to each other. But now that we're going to cooperate, there are some things we shouldn't be so shy about it. ”
Smiling slightly, he took a glass of champagne from the waiter on the side, and raised it to the richest man Wang, and old Morgan said to him like this.
"We've looked at you, including your company, your company development strategy. From your recent actions, we can see that you are making changes and transfers of your assets. Although you made your fortune in the real estate industry, at the moment, you are about to get out of the real estate industry. Your actions in the United States illustrate this very well, with the acquisition of Fox and Viacom, you can already be called the media giant of this world. ”
"It's a very clever move, and if I had known you earlier, I would have told you that blindly investing in real estate is definitely the most stupid thing to do. The United States has more than once triggered financial crises because of real estate. The real estate industry is the most vulnerable to collapse in any country. Although this industry can rely on speculation and other means to amass a large amount of wealth in a short period of time, it is precisely because of the infinite rise in housing prices that it will be easier to lose rigid demand groups. And that's one of the most dangerous situations. ”
"Eat, dress and sleep. This is the most basic need of human beings, and if human beings cannot afford to eat or wear clothes one day, then they will definitely rebel. At that time, no matter how powerful you are, you will not be able to stop the wrath of such a human being. The house needed for sleeping, although not as important to human beings as the first two. But by the same token, once humans find themselves without a place to sleep. They will also riot. ”
"There are a lot of real estate businessmen in your country who have chosen to jump off buildings because of the collapse of the real estate industry. You can take their affairs as a lesson from the past. Of course, now that you're out, that means you're safe. At least for a long time, you'll be safe. ”
"The truth is that this is true, but Mr. Morgan. I still don't understand, what are you trying to say to me after all this? Is that all? ”
As a successful person, Wang Shoufu does not like others to point fingers at him. After all, the taboo of the so-called shallow and deep talk exists, and he is indeed tired of old Morgan's nonsense. Because he knows this kind of thing himself, and since he knows, then old Morgan still looks like an old man and faces him, which is really a little unqualified.
For this, the elder Morgan also has this concern. That's why he got that kind of vaccination at the beginning. And since he has already started such a topic, he has no intention of stopping. So he could only remedy it while continuing according to the plan he had designed as he expected.
"No, no, no, of course it's more than that. I think you should understand all of this, and if that's all there is to it, I shouldn't waste our time, right? This is the beginning, my friend, and what I really have to say is in the back. ”
"Then I'll listen to you!"
"Actually, the thing I want to say is very simple, it has something to do with your industry. From your actions, we can see that you intend to shift your industry to the news media industry. Of course, you're more focused on entertaining movies. I can't tell you whether it's good or bad, I can only tell you that neither media nor entertainment is an industry that can support a consortium family. ”
"Every consortium in the world now has this characteristic. That is, they have always controlled a very key industry, and on the basis of such an industry, they have extended their hands to the financial side. This is not a special case, but almost all consortia do it. For example, the Morgan consortium used to have General Electric, and then it got involved in the banking industry. And Rockefeller had the oil in his hands, and then it was the same. Whether it is the United States, the original Japan, or even the small places of Germany and South Korea, as long as they can form a consortium, they basically hold an important real industry in their hands. This industry can't be like real estate without a level of technology, nor can it be like movie entertainment. It has to be important enough to change the world. And for now, only a few industries can do this. Energy, Technology and Heavy Industry. ”
"My friend, if you really want to be a new consortium. You have to hold such an industry in your own hands. It will bring you not only wealth, but also status and the weight of speech. It's like us. Why do you think that in the past so many years, the US government has been kidnapped and even controlled by us little by little. It's not something money can do. The more reason is that if the U.S. government wants to maintain their supremacy, they must have our support. ”
"Without us, the United States would not have the most sophisticated weapons. Those planes, those aircraft carriers, and even the weapons used by the soldiers, without the development and innovation of our companies, they would not have gotten such equipment. In the same way, without us, the United States would not even be able to build its own cyber information highway. As long as we don't agree, people won't be able to access the Internet, watch TV, and even normal travel will be a problem. ”
"Yes, the government can force us to compromise on something, but it can't make us back down on everything. It's like playing chess, his turn, and then ours. After we have finished giving in, it will be their turn to back down. And we are numerous and powerful. As soon as he retreated, it was when he showed his flaws and we took advantage of them. Time and time again, the U.S. government naturally becomes flawed until it is in our hands. It's just a pity that what a good situation, the foundation was broken by a fly. ”
Speaking of this, old Morgan inevitably sighed a little. This emotion is for the sake of Hydra. Because to him, the hydra is definitely the fly that spoiled the pot of soup.
What a wonderful world, what a powerful country, just because of those damn hydras, everything has changed. Even their years of hard work have been in vain, and even today, they have to look at Tony's arrogant child's face. It's all Hydra's fault.
Stark is hateful, but Hydra must not be let go. If the United States can return to the hands of these conglomerates in the future, then even if it sends a large amount of political contribution, he must let the next US administration increase the force of the attack on Hydra.
He could be so resentful of Hydra that no one expected. However, Wang Shoufu didn't care about his idea, because for him, Hydra or something was too far away. Unlike the United States, which has been ravaged by Hydra in the past, in Chinese mainland, it has not received any influence from it at all. If there is any impact, it is estimated that Hydra has expanded China's territory in disguise. After all, Japan today is an overseas enclave of China, and all this can be counted as the credit of Hydra.
Like the vast majority of Chinese, Wang Shoufu's senses for hydra are dispensable. Compared to the question of Hydra, he was more concerned about the suggestion that Morgan Sr. had said earlier. A core industry that can influence the world is indeed a good development direction. And what industry is suitable? In this regard, he was inevitably confused.
But the good thing is that there are experienced people here, and they don't necessarily cheat themselves at this time. So immediately, Wang Shoufu asked in the form of asking for advice.
"What do you think is the right core industry for a core industry?"
