British 1986

Chapter 148 Black Monday

This thing, if there are channels and the supply is obtained, it will be very easy to sell outside.

Don’t say anything else.

In a country like the United States with simple folk customs, less than 10% of the people do not own guns? !

why is that?

Don't they want to?

No.

It's just that guns are too expensive to buy, but if there are cheap or second-hand sources of goods, it can be considered a business to find an agent to distribute the goods.

But these are secondary. Allen just wants to make a good relationship this time.

A large number of production lines will be purchased and shipped soon, and then the factory will be built and put into production.

The industry here, which adds up to hundreds of millions of pounds inside and outside, doesn't have anything to do with it. Who can rest assured?

This is real money!

It was earned by his hard work, Mr. Allen, by cheating him penny by penny!

Allen's net worth has not reached the point where he doesn't take hundreds of millions of pounds seriously.

Human nature is such a thing. Local people have to pay attention to personal sophistication when doing business. As a foreigner, even if he is a foreign company, do he really think that he can sit back and relax after investing there?

But Allen can't be based in China, or he may have openly bribed people in the past.

The same is true for Counselor Wang in front of me. It's okay to give him a small gift, but if you really bribe him with money, it's not that he doesn't care about the messy things, but that he can't care about it. He is mainly in charge of attracting investment, not what happens after the investment is attracted. thing!

And sometimes, bribes don't necessarily have to involve money. For example, right now, what Allen is offering is a temptation that Counselor Wang can't refuse.

Only by giving heavy gifts can he get people to do things for him!

Allen doesn't like fussing with Sosou, so he gets it right in one go!

This thing is said to be a gift, but there is a human touch mixed with it!

This favor is not something that Counselor Wang can accept;

It is up to the person behind him to answer.

As for who will bear this favor in the end, Allen doesn't care, but as long as they dare to accept this gift, then Allen's investment in China will not just sit back and relax in the future, at least one thing will definitely be much less. trouble!

When Counselor Wang heard the count's request, it was not that it was too difficult, but it felt that it was too easy!

He still didn't know what Allen's next investment plan was, so when he looked at the tank in front of him, Counselor Wang felt a little unsure.

but suddenly

A stream of light flashed through Counselor Wang's mind, making him think of something.

This year, some time ago, President Reagan personally announced the plan.

A cooperation project with China is called the Peace Model, also known as the Peace Pearl Project.

Anyway, regardless of the name, the content of the plan is to help China upgrade its main fighter aircraft currently in service, codenamed Aerial Beauty.

China needs to transport the actual machine to the United States, let them study it first, and then come up with a series of upgrade plans.

The United States has even proposed selling some advanced parts of active combat aircraft, including but not limited to radars, engines and the like.

And now.

As a well-known European troublemaker, as an Englishman, could they not be able to bear it anymore?

The United States personally stepped in to help upgrade the aircraft, and the British guys want to get involved?

Look at the tank in front of you.

The foreign trade version of the tank is characterized by being targeted at Soviet tanks and has been tested in actual combat.

Counselor Wang silently thought about a few key words. This kind of old technology tank from 20 years ago, would you say it is advanced?

For Counselor Wang, it was quite advanced, but not so for the British.

If it was really advanced, could they sell it to Kuwait?

Looking at its technical indicators, it’s so obviously targeted, and you can’t imagine why they are so concerned about it?

The relationship between China and its neighbor to the north is not good now.

And they and the United States are currently in the so-called "honeymoon period", and at this time, the British are hiding behind and giving them an old tank with a bit old technology, but specially designed for Soviet tanks. That’s a bit interesting.

Counselor Wang was a little confused about Allen's meaning for a while.

He glanced at Allen with his peripheral vision. Although this earl was young, he was very thoughtful.

These people, each and every one of them, are dying, and they all hope that China will support them, and they hide behind to provide support.

He is a little unclear now whether this is Allen's personal behavior or whether it has any deeper meaning.

After thinking about it, Counselor Wang said with some confusion: "It's easy to take care of business. We welcome you to invest in our country, and we won't let you be treated differently, but"

Pointing to the tank, Counselor Wang hesitated and said, "Are you sure we can transport this thing out?"

As soon as Counselor Wang finished speaking, Allen smiled.

He was sure that Counselor Wang had discovered the key point. He asked this question, seemingly because he was concerned about whether the tank could be transported out, but in fact, he was testing him.

Test what?

If it can be shipped out through formal procedures, then there is a high probability that this thing was given with deep meaning. If it is through other channels, then there is a high probability that it was given to him by Allen Xianjiba. These are two different situations.

A servant in the distance ran up to Allen with a large document bag and handed it to him with both hands.

Allen took the document bag and handed it to Counselor Wang next to him without looking at it, motioning for him to open it and take a look.

When Counselor Wang saw that Allen didn't reply, he handed him something and shook the string on the button of the document bag.

Inside is a license plate, a thin maintenance manual, and others.

Ownership documents.

Looking at the so-called drawings, it is this maintenance manual. The technical content and production drawings are not at the same level at all!

But according to this manual, you can indeed put some things that have been dismantled and reinstall them according to the pictures and examples.

Counselor Wang, who was slightly disappointed, glanced at Allen.

"Haha, Mr. Wang doesn't understand our country very well. I said this is a big toy, and it is a big toy. This is the license plate of this tank. It can go on the road!"

Allen looked at the confused Counselor Wang with a smile and explained it to him.

This thing is a bit unorthodox, but because of the different national conditions, Counselor Wang may not have been exposed to this kind of thing.

In Britain, tanks can really be used on the road, and they can also be converted to civilian use.

The premise is that the weapons and equipment on the vehicle need to be dismantled, which does not mean dismantling the cannon, but just dismantling some of the equipment inside!

After the vehicle is inspected by the relevant departments, it can be converted to civilian use. If you want to drive it on the road, replace it with rubber tracks, with the turret facing backward, and you can go on the road normally!

As long as you have the legal procedures and obey the traffic rules!

If you want to transport such a "civilian tank" out, as long as the procedures are OK, you can transport it to wherever you want, as long as the destination can accept it.

As for the dismantled internal parts, those are small targets and no one cares about them as long as they are not transported together.

In Great Britain, as long as the money is in place and it is not a particularly sensitive area, anything can be done to you.

If the old count dares to bring this tank back, there won't be any big problems.

These license plates were the procedures that Allen asked Hughes from the security department to help him.

"Civilian tanks?"

"Um!"

Counselor Wang was a little speechless. He didn't understand this kind of thing, but that didn't stop him from accepting it. Every place had some weird rules.

"Then thank you for your gift. I like it very much. Your request is absolutely fine. You are our best friend!"

Counselor Wang specifically emphasized the words, we, good friends.

"Haha, then let Counselor Wang worry about it. Leave your address and I will contact you about transportation issues in a few days."

"Okay! Then I'm done with you!"

Counselor Wang is really happy. As long as we get this thing back, it will be of great reference value!

The earl gave him such a heavy gift just for his business, so he must reciprocate and say hello to others!

October 20th at 10am.

In a small conference room on the third floor, the host on the TV was introducing the so-called Black Monday in the United States with a serious face.

Allen held the newspaper and watched the news expressionlessly.

Yesterday, Monday, October 19, 1987, the American Dow Jones Index fell as much as 22.3%!

A total of 500 billion US dollars has evaporated!

This incident was widely reported in newspapers. Allen was a little dizzy after seeing these indexes and declines.

His current state is a bit like a melon-eating crowd waiting to watch the fireworks show during the holidays.

Hiding far away, he watched the fireworks popping up in the sky, and his expression changed under the various colors of firelight.

To say that he was gloating about his misfortune, he actually didn't. To be precise, because he was too far away, Allen didn't even feel the impact of such a financial crisis on him.

But Allen, who had been waiting for this day for a long time, actually felt very peaceful until this day arrived, just like watching a movie, a little unreal.

The financial markets in the United States are now in panic.

Putting down the newspaper, Allen glanced around. In addition to Huth, there were also his investment consultant Mattia, the head of the film and television department, Siphis, old Karl who came back overnight last night, and several professors in the economic field.

Yesterday afternoon, there was a news report on the TV news, but the specific information statistics were inaccurate. However, Old Karl directly brought back first-hand information, coupled with this morning's newspaper report, the information is basically clear.

"Tell me, what should we do this time?"

Everyone knows that Allen is planning to acquire industries, production lines, etc. in the United States, and Old Carl has even been tracking the stock market situation for several months, and has already known some signs, and now it has actually happened.

Several economics professors looked at me and I looked at you, not knowing how to speak.

Allen knocked on the table and asked someone to turn off the TV and then said: "Plan a timeline. Is this considered a stock market crash? How long do we have to wait and when can we go over to acquire it? This is the most important!"

He doesn't care how many people in the United States will go to the rooftops or go bankrupt because of this stock market crash. However, what he cares about is when he can go shopping!

I remember that in some novels I read before, the protagonist encountered this kind of stock market crash. He took a large amount of funds in advance, used leverage, short selling, etc., and made a lot of money in the stock market.

But only when he actually participated in this kind of thing could Allen realize the danger involved.

He doesn't do this kind of work.

Allen doesn't have the memory to remember the highest points, lowest points, etc. Once this thing jumps, it's like a dam bursting, out of control. With his ability, he can't play at all!

Now Allen just wants to be a vulture. You can play whatever you want with those financial big guys. He won't participate. When they have enough, Allen can go over and pick and choose!

"Your Excellency, the financial crisis this time is fierce and has exceeded expectations. As for the final result, we need to observe it for a few more days and collect more data."

"Um"

Allen frowned, but it was hard to say anything. It was only the first day, so there was no point in being anxious. He could only wait patiently.

"Then how long will it take for their situation to get better?"

"This is even more difficult to predict. With the size of the American market, if yesterday's losses continue for a period of time, it will not be possible to recover in the future. It is expected that it will take at least two or three years, at least!"

Two or three years

It seems to be just time data, but during the past two or three years, some people had a difficult time. They lost their jobs and could not find a job.

Another professor who had taught Allen before looked at Allen and said, "Sir, with the American style, if they delay for a long time, they may have to rely on external forces to divert the conflict."

"Oh? How to say."

transfer conflicts

"Military industrial enterprise." The middle-aged teacher said one word concisely and then shut up.

Allen raised his eyebrows, got it!

If you want to quickly stimulate economic recovery, what can be done faster than selling arms?

and.

When the United States sells arms, they not only sell them, but they can also consume them themselves.

How to consume?

Find someone to have sex with

At that time, with a group of allies, everyone will help the domestic military industry companies.

The military capital group can make money, deflect conflicts, and guide public opinion. It has many advantages.

Thinking of this, Allen had something in his mind. He had already thought of who the unlucky guy was.

This is what the fuck it is.

"Okay, then let's observe for a few more days. Siphis stays. Hut, you can help me see off the guests."

"Okay, Master!"

Huth stood up and led several professors and Old Karl out of the conference room.

"How long will it take to complete the later stage?"

"Probably next month, our film will be relatively simple and straightforward."

"Um"

Allen looked at Syffis with slightly dark circles under his eyes, and it looked like he hadn't rested well. He asked about the progress of the later stages of the movie.

I want to make money in the United States, but seeing the financial crisis in the United States, this time.

All industries will be in recession this year.

This will have some impact on the release of his new movie.

If we keep doing this in the next year or two, the plan may have to change.

Thinking of this, Allen couldn't help but feel a bit of toothache. This seemed not to be affected, but now that he thought about it carefully, it was still affected.

"Master, when do you want our new movie to be released?"

Syphis looked at Allen, waiting for him to make up his mind. The stock market is so bleak. If he wants to release a movie in the near future, will the audience not be interested in watching it?

Although he doesn't know much about finance, it doesn't stop Syphis from thinking wildly. Who the hell is going to watch movies now that they have no money!
