Chapter 469
"It's like this, dear General, don't you think we should suppress the semiconductor industry of Sakura Country?
Look at the bankrupt technology industries in Lighthouse Country. Should their future development be controlled by Sakura Country?" Fengyun said with a compassionate look.
"Let's get to the point."
"Well, the point is that I think Lighthouse Country should cultivate a few more emerging markets near Sakura Country, so that they can compete with each other.
When they fight to the death, we can further reap the remnants.
The industrial development of Sakura Country must be restricted to a reasonable level, which is of great benefit to both of us." Fengyun said with a smile.
Cook did not answer immediately. He thought for a while, then looked at Fengyun and said word by word: "You are really a vampire."
Fengyun bowed gracefully to Cook and said: "Thank you for your compliment, I think I should have a good talk with the Minister of Commerce about the specific steps."
"Ok, no problem, there will be a cocktail party in two days, and the Minister of Commerce will also attend. You can just go there.
Before that, I will explain the whole story to the Minister."
Then, Cook looked at Fengyun again and said slowly: "Listen, I will not care about the war between you Crows and other families.
But if I catch you committing a crime, you won't even have the chance to go to jail, do you understand?"
"General Cook, what you said really makes me sad. I thought we have always been friends?
Well, don't worry, I will not sell out the interests of the Lighthouse Country. After all, I have a lot of industrial investments here, right?"
Fengyun's power has become increasingly huge, so huge that even Cook has to pay attention to it.
Especially this person, who is not under their control.
…
At the cocktail party.
“Mr. Minister, I am Fengyun. General Cook should have introduced me.
Can you spare a few minutes of your precious time to talk to me?” Fengyun said elegantly, holding a half-full glass of wine.
Minister James looked at Fengyun and carefully looked at the young man in front of him. This person is really too young.
The minister nodded.
“Cook told me about you. I didn’t expect you to be so young. Also, Rick mentioned you to me, saying that you are working with him, and your performance has always been great.”
In a quiet reception room.
“Tell me, young man, what do you think?” James looked at Fengyun and asked.
"Mr. Minister, please forgive me for being blunt. Since the advent of transistors, it has brought about a huge change in the microelectronics industry.
Since the early 1970s, Intel produced the first central processing unit. After 20 years of development, we have to say that the semiconductor technology of Sakura Country has left us far behind.
The former Casio Company of Sakura Country once accounted for more than 80% of the electronics market here.
Afterwards, the Very Large Scale Integrated Circuit Technology Research Institute established by Sakura Country has established their dominance in the semiconductor chip industry.
Mr. Minister, I believe you have also seen that the future world is a world of technology. If you dominate technology, you will dominate everything.
And chips dominate technology, which is why our Hongxing Group has invested heavily in semiconductors and new industries.
However, although these entrepreneurs under us have seen it, why are the authorities indifferent?
According to the intelligence of our group, the semiconductor industry of Sakura Country has received strong support from the Sakura Country authorities, and official investment Investment even accounts for more than 40%.
But the Lighthouse Country, the official is indifferent to this. I believe that within 10 years, Sakura Country will defeat us in the semiconductor industry..."
Listening to Fengyun's story, Minister James looked at him quietly, and then said: "Are you lobbying me on behalf of those semiconductor companies?"
"No, Minister, to be honest, the life and death of other semiconductor companies has nothing to do with me? I even hope they go bankrupt.
However, as a businessman, I understand the principle of lips and teeth. The purpose of my investment in the company is to make money, to make a lot of money, this is my hobby.
But now, if the semiconductor industry of the Lighthouse Country is defeated by Sakura Country, then I will face huge losses.
Microsoft and Intel, where I invested, will suffer huge impairment, which is not what I want to see.
Of course, if things really come to that point, I will also clear all my stocks and invest in the semiconductor industry of Sakura Country. "
"Are you threatening me?" Look"No, sir, I'm just stating a fact. If the authorities don't do something, many people will lose their jobs. Even the technological development of the Lighthouse Country will be strangled by the Sakura Country." The minister was silent, lit a cigarette, and took a long puff. "Mr. Feng, in fact, I understand what you said. But you also know that this is not a simple matter. As far as I know, many chaebols in the Sakura Country are lobbying our congressmen, hoping that our authorities can give them a more relaxed environment. On the other hand, you need money to do things, so don't expect the gentlemen in Congress to be kind. It's extremely difficult to get money from them." The minister complained. "Moreover, our government has more detailed data. Mr. Feng, you probably can't imagine that the yield rate of our domestically produced chips is already far lower than that of Sakura Country.
Also, Sakura Country's dynamic memory market has accounted for more than 80% of the world, and they are even developing their own operating system to replace Windows.
By the way, Mr. Feng, it seems that you are still the second largest shareholder of Microsoft. If Sakura Country's TRON really replaces Windows, I'm afraid you will suffer the most." Minister James said at the end, and did not forget to make a black humor with Fengyun.
Fengyun smiled reluctantly: "Mr. Minister, this joke is really not funny."
Looking at Fengyun's somewhat embarrassed expression, James finally believed that the guy opposite was just for his own interests.
"So, Mr. Feng, do you have any good ideas?"
"Mr. Minister, I think the dumping law should be implemented on electronic products from Sakura Country. They are dumping.
Their authorities have a large number of export subsidies for these electronic products, which is against the principle of fairness and justice. So, we have to sanction them." Fengyun said indignantly.
