"Recently, the little girl heard about something. ”

Putting aside her favorite herbal tea, Diana's upright smiling face brought out an unexpected topic.

"At present, the cabinets of various countries are reviewing the exclusive business practices of enterprises and rectifying the order of market operations. It may turn a blind eye to unfair competition in the past, but after the new law is passed, it will put an end to profiteering operations that bring social danger. ”

Roland looked at Diana without moving, forced a wry smile, and the muscles on his face stiffened little by little.

What Diana is talking about now, Li Lin had told him a long time ago - when a certain group looks like it is going to monopolize the industry it runs, from hostile forces, former allies to ordinary people, they will band together, smash that hand that is too long with a super stick, and break up that company.

-- The super-stick called the "Anti-Monopoly Law."

Rockefeller, Boeing, and Microsoft are all good specimens, and Li Lin remembers their tragedies and has been careful to avoid repeating them.

He has been doing a good job, almost accomplishing the great cause of no one before and since—monopolizing most of the world's industries and industrial capacity. The monopoly system has gradually solidified through the methods of collusion between officials and businessmen, equalization of interests, and continuous technological innovation.

It is not far from a complete monopoly, and the stick of the "anti-monopoly law" has finally begun to emerge from under the surface of the water.

"I see, that's a good thing. ”

Roland clapped his hands in agreement.

And he was telling the truth, V.E had really changed the world. It has also made a lot of contributions to civilization and technological progress. But social progress ultimately requires competition, a society dominated by elven monopoly capital...... It wasn't necessarily bad, but it made Roland uneasy.

The only question is, why did the Holy See think of coming to him to talk about it? If it was not a wrong arrangement, it was an ulterior motive.

"You should consult with my guardian, sister...... Diana. ”

After a moment's hesitation, Roland suppressed his weakness and addressed the scribe nun like all devout believers, and then added:

"I don't have a say in corporate matters. ”

"Ling Zun is an empathetic person who can also listen to other people's opinions. It's just that sometimes...... Rather stubborn. I've heard about Brother Roland. If you can help, it couldn't be better. ”

Diana smiled rightly, and Roland almost couldn't help rubbing her aching temples.

Diana's euphemism was, in Li Lin's own words, "Opinion is allowed." But resistance must not be allowed". If Diana goes to Li Lin to discuss. You can imagine how "warmly" the company's legal team will greet her.

According to the internal reference of the Council. As of last year, the Anaheim family accounted for 5 to 7 percent of the world's total production capacity in major industries such as steel, energy, non-ferrous metals, machinery, and ships, which were critical to the war potential. The history of the earth's side since the Industrial Revolution shows. There are few precedents for the side with the small industrial output to prevail over the side with the more. As long as the human and orc camps are not Godzilla in rabbit skin, there will never be a special case of the Rabbit Bald Civil War, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War. As far as the current situation is concerned, the elves are probably the most like the harmless black rabbits of humans and animals......

Compared with serious things like the stars and the sea, a little girl's nonsense is not worth paying attention to at all, even if everything she says is true, Li Lin will not care.

There is a case of the Morgan consortium splitting itself into two major banks, JP Morgan and Morgan Stanley, and it is not difficult for V.E., which has the characteristics of both trust and Contseen, to transform and avoid the antitrust stick. If things don't go well, it's a big deal to let the Pope, like Commander Kennedy, who is trying to take back the right to print money, be shot in the head for no reason.

If you want to engage in anti-monopoly, let's see if your braincase is harder than that of bullets.

"If my sister Diana thinks that I can exert influence over the president of the company, I am afraid that she is misunderstood, and I have not been able to intervene in the management of the company for a long time. ”

Hiding the sharp line "I don't eat this" under the calm politeness, Diana couldn't help but hold her breath for a while, and the sable on the coffee table stopped eating, and the hairs on her back stood up like needles.

Roland's uncooperative attitude was not in her plan.

The so-called men, to put it bluntly, are all beasts.

Animals are attracted to traps by mates, food, and men are no exception. Once complimented by a beautiful woman, self-confidence can quickly be fueled to the point of self-righteousness. In this way, if they are induced to cross the boundaries of power that they should not cross, the Holy See can also use Roland as a channel to meddle in the internal affairs of V.E.

To put it bluntly, it is to provoke the conflict between Roland and Li Lin, and break through the strong fortress of V.E Company from the inside.

In the past, such tactics have been effective, and I thought that this time would be no exception, but there were exceptions.

Diana closed her eyes reflectively and exhaled slowly.

There is no flaw in the strategy itself, but the subject knows his own pounds better than he imagined, and it is much more difficult than the stinky men who negotiated in the past.

Before Diana could play her next card, not sparing a brief gap, Roland pulled the negotiation into his own pace in a steady voice.

"Sister Diana, I came to visit late at night, not just to inform the anti-monopoly case. Although I can't talk about the company's matters, I can inform the company's upper management of the matters to be negotiated, and I hope to inform them if it is convenient. ”

"Okay. ”

Without hesitating for long, Diana readily agreed. In the future, there will be opportunities to do Roland's work, and she will focus more on completing the main task than dwelling on small setbacks.

"I believe that Brother Rowland has heard the rumors of the recent negotiations between Albion and Charlemagne to limit the expansion of naval armaments and ease the situation. ”

"Yes. ”

The boy's body leaned forward slightly, his hands folded together.

"As the agent of Mother Goddess Marfa on earth, we are happy to see our human brothers working together to resolve disputes, unite all people, and defend faith and peace. We sincerely hope that the negotiations will be successful. ”

"It's the same for my company. ”

"The Holy See believes in the sincerity of your company, and I believe that V.E., which has a heart of faith and a long-term future, is happy to see peace coming. ”

The innocent and pure female voice sounded like a sarcasm to Roland, and before he could say anything about his innocent face, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse.

"However, the imperial capital has been a little unpeaceful recently, and a small number of unscrupulous people who don't know the general situation are operating in secret, although they haven't caused any major incidents, but if something happens during the negotiation process, I'm afraid it's not what your company wants to see, right?"

"Indeed...... So. ”

Almost choked his voice, he had already understood the whole picture of the trap, and knew what the other party was going to say next, but Roland couldn't stop, and his side face couldn't help but show a little anxiety.

"Because this is a secret negotiation, it is impossible to carry out the defense work with great fanfare, and because of the respect for the sovereignty of the two countries, the Holy See cannot send an escort into Charlemagne...... It's hard to say, but we're sorry and we hope that V.E will take on security during the negotiations. ”

The white made the marten leap up its master's shoulder, stroking the spirit-connected beast, and the corners of Diana's mouth raised into a smug smile. (To be continued......)
