Advanced Players in Arc

To be honest, when Arclight Group first acquired several technology companies related to Musk, the United States refused.

In fact, it doesn't matter if the Arclight Group only acquires a few less important companies. At most, the major shareholders will hold a few meetings, then decide whether to agree to the acquisition, and then see what price the Arclight Group will offer. Finally, the relevant approval departments will agree. Just one click will do.

Even if it is an electric vehicle company or a brain-computer interface company, it will do. After all, the Arc Light Group is not China. There is no need to guard against everything. As long as the contract is signed later, the United States will also do a good job in monitoring and prevent the Arc Light Group from using these technologies. Just sell it secretly to China.

However, the Arc Light Group is not satisfied with these and insists on acquiring Musk Aerospace, and the United States has also noticed that the Arc Light Group is mainly for Musk Aerospace, and it is a matter of whether other companies want to buy it.

However, Musk's aerospace does involve many national secrets of the United States. Of course, there are more technical secrets, but this is enough. They can already reject many people with this.

Sometimes it really involves state secrets, or it is a foreign acquisition that is refused to prevent technology leakage, and sometimes it is just to disgust the "competitors."

Other countries, and countries that are vaguely regarded as hostile parties, are competitors.

Don't be surprised, the kind of "I appreciate you hating me, but you can't kill me" kind of destructive thing can be done not only between individuals, but also between countries. After all, countries are also controlled by people.

And this kind of "showdown" between countries is not only a matter of face, but also a series of things may unfold. This can be regarded as another level of confrontation in peacetime.

If you can't fight directly, you have to open up other "battlefields" and then all parties have a fight there. Otherwise, how can you let others know that you are awesome if you haven't fought for so long.

So although there is no visible hot war between the major powers, there is a lot of exchanges in other aspects.

It just so happens that the United States has always disliked Arc Light Group. Especially with the rapid development of Arc Light Group and the acquisition of Falcon International, which caused them great losses, they felt that Arc Light Group was becoming more and more disliked.

This time the other party just happened to take the initiative to bump into them, so how could it be possible for the Arc Light Group to get their wish?

I just didn't expect that the Arc Light Group was quite difficult to deal with, and they didn't play by the rules.

What the hell is no need?

Isn't this too arrogant?

Although the officials in these investigative departments are all veterans, this kind of behavior that does not follow the routine and adds pretense still makes them a little angry.

You must know that they are great American investigators, and their words will determine whether the acquisition is valid or not. In the past, people from any company did not say nice things to them or try their best to please them.

Fortunately for the Arc Light Group, they actually came up with this.

Although the United States is very angry, those around the world who are watching the excitement are very excited. From time to time, they will flip through the news pages and pay attention to the news of the Arc Light Group. They find that in addition to fighting against the world and the United States, there are other things about the Arc Light Group. The project is also pretty good.

………………

"Haha, your Arc Light Group's financial strength is really strong," the official from the investigation department said with squinted eyes, "But even so, you still can't acquire Musk Aerospace because we suspect that their technology will be used by you for military purposes. , so in order to ensure the national integrity of the United States and the security of the international environment, we cannot pass this acquisition."

Hearing this, the Arclight Group personnel laughed and said, "Dear Investigator, sir, I wonder if you have made a mistake?"

"What went wrong?" the official from the investigation department said unhappily, "I tell you, we have ruled that this acquisition is not valid, so don't say anything else and just go back to your Arc Light Group."

"I'm sorry, maybe I made a mistake and didn't let you understand what I meant." The negotiator of the Arc Light Group stood up and straightened his tie.

When people in the United States saw the Arclight Group's attitude, they thought they were going to apologize and give in. But before they could get happy, the Arclight Group's negotiators changed the topic and said, "I'm not targeting you or anyone else." people."

"I'm just saying that in space, we don't need to use anyone else's technology."

"You may have forgotten, but it doesn't matter, I'll tell you."

"In orbit around the earth, there are ten large space stations of our Arc Light Group. Except for the small part that belongs to China, the rest all belong to us."

"On the moon, there is our lunar base and lunar city, which all belong to us. The permanent population has exceeded two hundred people, and the construction area is still increasing."

"As for what you said, you are afraid that we will use your country's technology for military purposes. I'm sorry, I didn't hear it clearly just now. Can you say it again?"

"you……"

The investigator here in the United States was immediately furious.

He has participated in similar events many times before, but he has never met such an arrogant company representative. Is he still here to ask them to do something? This is simply asking for trouble!

"I tell you, if it is not allowed, it is not allowed. This is my final answer to you."

The investigating officer's temper also rose. Before he came, he had already received the accurate answer from above, which was that it was not allowed. As for how to express it specifically, that was his own business.

Even if the popularity of the Arc Light Group is speechless, it's okay. That's his ability, because he has the powerful United States behind him.

But he never expected that this situation would be reversed, and he would be choked speechless by the people from the Arc Light Group.

"No matter how powerful your Arc Light Group is, it is just a private company. So what if you are temporarily ahead in technology? The emergence of the initial island has already doomed your downfall."

"Haha, so what if there are ten space stations? When you see our invincible interstellar fleet in the United States, you will know what power is."

"Arc Light Group, you are too short-sighted. You should not go against our country, the United States, because you know nothing about power!"

In response to the investigator's threats and belittling, the Arclight Group's negotiators did not show anything, but asked calmly, "So... your country doesn't intend to abide by the law? Are you just going to be unreasonable?"

"Haha, so what, the negotiations here are not open to the public," the investigator laughed loudly, "and the people who make the laws and those who enforce the laws are Americans, and you still talk to me about the law."

"Young man, don't think how powerful your company is. Before I'm completely angry and haven't punished you with our American laws, you'd better take your people and leave the United States quickly, otherwise don't blame me for letting you Now you know what American law is."

"Very well, thank you. This is the answer I want," the negotiator of the Arc Light Group said with a smile. "If you had said this earlier, I might have left long ago, but it is not too late now."

"Since you don't plan to take the normal route, I can only wish you... a happy life."

"goodbye."
