1855 United States Tycoon
Chapter 393
After working for more than an hour, Greystone felt that the answer to own was basically formed. Although the details are still a lot worse, where specific data is needed. Here, there is no way to get enough data at once. So it's almost the same to be able to do it like this.
Gladstone gathered up the papers full of words on the desk, arranged the order, then stood up, paused the manuscript neatly on the desk, and then walked towards Scrooge's office.
Knocked gently on the door, and Scrooge's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Greystone opened the door and saw that Donald was already there. The map of the world has also been hung up, and Donald is pointing to the map and telling Scrooge his own opinion.
"The price Japan paid in this war will definitely be even greater, so after the war, Japan will definitely demand huge war indemnities from China. In addition, it may also ask for the cession of Taiwan. There are even more. At that time, it will be based on China. It’s impossible to pay such a huge indemnity because of their financial ability. They can only borrow from abroad. Even in the middle stage of the war, they will borrow heavily, and it is difficult to borrow. We can take the opportunity to ask them at this time. By lending usury, let them use mining rights and other things as collateral. Anyway, after China's new defeat, it is absolutely powerless to play with us.
And in the long run, the benefits are even greater. After this war, if Japan wants to continue its development, it must always suppress China. Scrooge Uncle, the reason why I infer that Japan will ask China to cede Taiwan is based on this judgment. And China naturally wants to keep itself, but his strength is not enough, so it must continue to borrow from other countries, in this way, we can get more opportunities to benefit. Moreover, I just checked the political situation of China. The ruler of China and the vast majority of the people are not the same nation. This would not have been a big problem many years ago, but it is different now. The idea of the nation-state will surely penetrate gradually. In this way, the legitimacy of the government has become a problem, and China may continue to revolutionize in the future. China is so big, it is not an industrialized country, and there is no unified market constraint, so it will be very prone to splitting. Once such a situation arises, a situation in which an industrial country supports a separatist regime and another industrial country supports another separatist regime will follow. There will be a lot of business opportunities.
Therefore, Scrooge Uncle, I think, in the near term, we can use the opportunity of China's defeat to provide them with usury and control some mining or important sectors. In the long run, it would be best if we can also control a local faction. However, this may exceed the limit of our strength. However, I think we can make a difference. For example, our weapons department. Under such circumstances, China will definitely need a large number of cheap and reliable weapons. If we specifically develop some weapons in response to these requirements, we should also be able to make some money. However, we are still in a disadvantaged position compared to companies in countries that have the ability to deploy military power in Asia. It would be great if we, United States, could snatch the Philippines from the Spanish.
In addition, I have a suggestion. I hope to use this opportunity to let the University of Cleveland open a branch in China. The top students in this school, we can send them to the University of Cleveland to study. Uncle, in this way, in the long run, we can gain greater influence in China. And influence can become money sooner or later..."
Greystone stood aside, listening to these things his cousin said, he regretted a little bit: "Maybe he should have come in earlier." Because Greystone found that in most of his opinions, he There is not much difference between Donald and Donald. He was worried that if he answered below, it would appear that he was just repeating Donald's things.
"Donald's reaction speed has not always been fast," Grey Stone thought. "Furthermore, what he said just now, his understanding of the political situation in the Far East is not worse than mine. But I understand this because I recently followed Greece. When Mr. Dink negotiates with the Chinese, he will naturally pay attention to collecting relevant information. But how can MacDonald know so much about the situation in the Far East? It seems that he has probably guessed what Dad wants to test us, and he has made preparations in advance. In this way, Donald really can't underestimate..."
"Yes, Donald, how come you are so familiar with things in the Far East?" Scrooge nodded, twisted the pen in his hand on his finger, and asked slowly.
"Uncle, some time ago, the school gave us an assignment. Let us design combat operations in the Far East when we compete with the Japanese for control of the Ryukyu Islands. So I have some understanding of the form of the Far East." Donald replied. Say.
Donald didn’t lie. This time his performance was so good. There was indeed luck. But Grey Stone didn’t believe it, but he just buried this suspicion silently in his heart, and then he wondered if there is any more. What Donald didn't think of.
"Grey Stone, this is Donald's outline. You can take a look and tell me what you need to add. By the way, show me your outline." Scrooge said as he put some paper Pass it to Grey Stone.
Grey Stone took it and saw that it was Donald’s basic idea. He passed his own writing to Scrooge, and then began to compare Donald’s idea in detail. Sure enough, the content and own idea are indeed great. The parts are all the same.
"Damn it, what should I do?" Graystone thought. It suddenly occurred to him that Donald's idea of producing reliable weapons that mainly emphasized ease of maintenance in order to sell to China did not occur to him because Donald had been doing it recently. In receiving military and political training. And didn’t he himself learned how to control the media some time ago, thereby influencing public opinion and political decision-making? This was unexpectedly unexpected when he made the decision just now, this is really...
"Dad, my thoughts are not too different from Donald. It's just that Donald's idea about weapons sales in China is something I didn't think of. This is a very good idea." Grey Stone said with a sincere smile. , He doesn't mind boasting his own cousin in front of his father. Father very much hopes that the family can maintain unity, and helping each other with brothers is what he advocates most. He even taught himself and other brothers and sisters: "In a family, if the leader doesn’t know anything, isn’t it terrible? No. As long as he can treat other members of the family graciously, his brothers have Ability, he is happy as if he has the ability, and sincerely willing to help the brother own to show his ability, then he can be a good leader. On the contrary, if he is very talented, it is unlikely that others are better than others in any respect. Once I see that the Own brother has some strengths in a certain aspect, he is not trying to find a way to let him play, but to find a way to suppress him and make him unable to play. Then even if his personal ability is strong, it will only cause harm to the family. . I don’t want such a person to appear among you."
Since my father likes to see the image of brothers united, of course he has to show it. Donald’s earlier talk is good, that is, it is easier to show his own talents, but Greystone, who talks later, thinks it is later. Speaking is also good, that is, the opportunity to show own generosity. Even, perhaps in his father's heart, tolerance is more important than pure ability.
"So do you have any unique ideas of your own?" Scrooge asked.
"It was nothing," Grey Stone said. "But after hearing what Donald said, inspired by him, I thought of something. Dad, can I go out and perfect it again?"
Gladstone knew how shrewd his father was. It’s best to tell the truth before him. He didn’t think thoroughly about newspapers and propaganda before. If he talked about it directly, then Scrooge could easily hear him. These plans came out of his thoughts only temporarily. It would be better to admit it straightforwardly. This was inspired by the own brothers and came to mind temporarily.
"No, just talk about what you think of temporarily." Scrooge said.
"Okay, Dad." Grey Stone said.
"I think we also neglected newspapers and broadcasting. Through the loan, we would rather make concessions in terms of the loan interest rate, but also obtain the right to publish a newspaper in China and build a radio station. Dad, I know that there are already in the concession. There are newspapers, but those newspapers are mainly English or French newspapers, and they are aimed at white people in China. This market and influence are surprisingly small, and there is no future for development. Some Chinese have followed suit. Newspapers, their newspapers are aimed at Chinese people, but their level of technology for running newspapers is not high, and their capital is not strong enough. Generally speaking, they are very unprofessional. So, if we can get the right to publish Chinese newspapers, even get Not only the right to issue in the concession, then we can rely on it to obtain a considerable right to speak. And the right to speak can eventually be implemented into real economic benefits. As for wireless broadcasting, the same is true. But specific I didn’t think about the implementation details.”
"Very good. You can think of so much for the time being." Scrooge said, "Of course, the Manchu Qing government may not easily agree, but under the pressure of the current situation, it should be able to do it. As for the details, I am. I used to emphasize your details because you often acted sloppyly. But looking at your vision, it’s much more detailed than before. But don’t go to the other extreme. Why didn’t you think about this now? Is it because you have entered the details too early on the most easily thought of issues? Details are important, but before completing the entire big idea, the big frame, do not enter the details too early, otherwise it is easy to get stuck in the details instead I can’t find the direction. Moreover, other relevant persons in charge will naturally take care of matters that are too detailed. Otherwise, what do we pay them for? Do you two understand?"
"(Uncle) Dad, we all understand." The two replied together.
"Well, give your two materials and the things you just thought of Greystone to my copy secretary, Mr. Garrison, and let him be responsible for the adjustment and refinement." Scrooge said at last.
