Expedition to Europe

Two years ago, the pillar industries in North Africa were animal husbandry and grape plantations. In order to maintain its rule in the three North African countries, the French government even had to pay huge subsidies every year to ensure the normal operation of the three North African governments.

In France, there are many voices asking the government to abandon the three North African countries to get rid of this financial burden.

The situation of the British in Libya is basically the same.

Now it is different. With the discovery of oil fields in Algeria, Tunisia and Libya, oil has become a new economic growth point in North Africa, and the growth rate is jaw-dropping. The tax revenue contributed by the New Baku Oilfield alone can not only support the operation of the entire North African government, but also feed back to France. No one in France will ever talk about giving up North Africa.

Of course, there are hidden worries under the thriving surface, and the Brotherhood Alliance is the one with the biggest hidden dangers.

Since its birth, the Brotherhood Alliance first set off a bloody storm in Algeria, then moved to Tunisia, causing unrest in the entire southern Tunisia, and then went to Libya.

In Libya, the Brotherhood Alliance reached an agreement with the British to jointly develop the Gharyan oil field, and the Brotherhood Alliance had a stable income.

But this income was not enough for the entire Brotherhood Alliance. In order to obtain more income, the Brotherhood Alliance has now returned to Tunisia and started to plot against Tunisia's Basel Oil Development Company.

Unlike the Gharyan oil field, which has not yet been put into production, the oil field controlled by Basel Oil Development Company has been put into production and is continuously profitable. The Brotherhood Alliance's return to Tunisia this time not only damages the interests of Prince Basel, but also the interests of the French government.

Others do not know the relationship between the Brotherhood Alliance and Qin Zhiyuan, but Pierre knows it.

From the standpoint of the French government, Pierre certainly does not want the interests of Basel Oil Company to be damaged. Therefore, when the news of the Brotherhood Alliance's return to the United States reached Paris, Pierre came directly to the door.

"What does North Africa have to do with you? Just take care of Amiens." Qin Zhiyuan did not answer Pierre's question directly, and directly choked Pierre.

"As a member of France, I can't just watch the interests of France being damaged, understand?" Pierre, who had just entered the political arena, was still a young man and had his own bottom line in his heart.

"How has the interest of France been damaged? My United Petroleum is paying huge taxes every day, so you'd better show some respect to me. I also contribute to your salary." Qin Zhiyuan occupied a moral high ground and was not afraid of Pierre's accusation at all.

"Let me tell you clearly, Brother Alliance, why don't you go and mess with the British? Why do you want to go back to ******?" Pierre directly pointed it out and stopped beating around the bush with Qin Zhiyuan.

"Ha, it seems that the information that you have a close personal relationship with Basel is true. How much political donations did Basel give you? Are you short of money?" Qin Zhiyuan didn't beat around the bush.

"Don't talk nonsense, this matter has nothing to do with Basel." Pierre denied it flatly.

The Prince of Basel, who is from the capital of the United States, has been in close contact with the dignitaries in Paris recently. He owns a part of the shares of Basel Oil Company. He is not short of money and is very generous, so this prince has a good reputation in Paris.

"It doesn't matter whether it has anything to do with Basel. This matter is beyond your scope of handling, so you'd better not get involved." After knowing that it was related to Basel, Qin Zhiyuan's voice turned cold and his face fell.

"How can it not be related? Basel has invested in several companies in Amiens and has undertaken part of the infrastructure. If there is a problem with Basel Oil Company, then the project in Amiens will not be able to continue. Is it still not related?" Pierre refused to give up.

Don't think that those second-generation rich people only know how to eat, drink and have fun. Some of them are still very conscious of investment. This Prince of Basel performed well.

"Okay, okay, Basel invested in you, you spoke for Basel, you have fulfilled your responsibilities, as for whether your efforts are effective, that is not within your control." Qin Zhiyuan had to appease this "simple" brother-in-law.

This is like the common people in the 21st century inviting some shameless civil servants to dinner for some things. Those shameless clerks keep saying that they are giving you face, but whether the things can be done is still a question.

It is really shameless without limit, and they don’t even follow the principle of "eating people’s mouths".

"I said, you haven’t given me an answer yet." Pierre still insisted.

"Do you have to give me a direct answer? Basel has investments in you, and so do I. So when the interests of Basel and I conflict, which side will you stand on?" Qin Zhiyuan gave Pierre a choice between two options.

"Of course it’s your side, but the scale of Basel Oil Company is not even half of that of United Oil. Does it have the ability to pose a threat to you?" Pierre didn’t believe Qin Zhiyuan’s words.

"Why not? As long as they survive in the oil industry, they are a threat to me." Qin Zhiyuan said firmly.

According to the planned expansion, Federal Oil is about to enter the United States. At that time, Federal Oil will face fierce competition from oil industry giants such as Mobil Oil and Standard Oil. What Qin Zhiyuan can do in this competition is to unify the oil prices in Europe and provide a stable rear for Federal Oil. This is why Qin Zhiyuan wants to deal with Basel Oil Company.

In fact, in the Basel Petroleum Development Company, the United Petroleum Group occupies a controlling position, but because Basel controls the personnel rights of Basel Petroleum, Basel also has considerable power. The brotherly alliance returns to Tunisia to Replace the local people's positions in the Basel Petroleum Development Company and replace all Basel Petroleum employees with people from the fraternal alliance. Only in that way can the hidden dangers of the Basel Petroleum Development Company be truly eliminated.

"Ha, you finally admitted that this matter had something to do with you." Pierre was as excited as if he had won a battle.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Qin Zhiyuan was confused. If it was just for Basel, Pierre would not work so hard.

"Nylon, I want a nylon factory to build a nylon factory in Amiens." Pierre Tu saw it.

"Nylon? Nylon products haven't been launched yet, why do you want a factory?" Qin Zhiyuan was curious about where Pierre got the news.

"Not on the market? No, no, no, it's on the market, but you don't know it yet." Pierre's expression was exaggerated, and he used extreme movements to enhance the persuasiveness of his words: "You may not know that in New York now, nylon Products are already hard to find, and all the ladies and ladies in New York have already They have gone crazy. They stay in front of the Federal Group all night in order to buy a pair of socks or girdle their waists. As long as a new product is released, it will be sold out immediately. A pair of socks for ten dollars can be sold for five hundred dollars. This It’s actually the price of a Ford sedan, can you believe it?”

Qin Zhiyuan really didn't know.

In the Waldorf-Astor Hotel, Federal Group President's Office, Allen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with confidence: "Let's see, in three days at most, Morgan will take the initiative to come to my door and beg me. You said I should be in the office." Should we receive him or receive him in the lobby on the first floor? "

Morgan's cold treatment of the Federal Group some time ago still left a deep impression on Simon Allen. Simon Allen can swear that he has never been treated like this since he was born. If there is a chance, Simon Allen Will definitely find his place again.

"Don't be so optimistic yet. Even if the sales of nylon are booming now, there is still a gap between the Federal Group and the Morgan Consortium. The situation will not fundamentally change in a short period of time." Jane Colegi poured cold water on Allen appropriately.

"But the gap is shrinking rapidly, with an attitude that everyone can't believe." Allen was full of confidence, standing in front of the window with open arms like a hug, slightly raising his face and closing his eyes with an intoxicated expression, speaking in a similar aria-like voice The voice recited: "This is my world, and I am the master here. Even the Morgan consortium must bow its noble head in front of me."

Jane looked helpless and held her forehead with one hand while shaking her head. Facing such a childish man, there was really nothing she could do.

"Honestly, how about my hunger marketing?" Allen was not intoxicated for long, and soon returned to the sofa and sat next to Jane.

"Very good, I have to say, you are really a genius." Jane kissed her wisely.

In fact, as early as half a month ago, the products produced by the nylon factory were ready for the market, but Allen did not rush to push the products to the market, but released the products bit by bit to test the market's acceptance. and the popularity of the product.

This strategy worked wonders. Allen underestimated the beauty of women in this era. Once various socks, corsets, and underwear made of nylon were launched on the market, they immediately set off a buying frenzy in New York. New Yorkers were so enthusiastic that even Allen was caught off guard. It was almost the first time that Allen realized that there were so many people in New York.

At this time, in front of the Federal Group, the long shopping queue had stretched for one kilometer. Not only women of all ages, but also many men joined the queue to buy. There were also many people standing in front of the Federal Group holding signs. In front of the door, it said something like "Please give me a set of underwear, I am willing to pay any price."

"The genius is not me, but His Majesty. Without Your Majesty, there would be no current Federation Group." Allen did not dare to take credit.

When he was in Europe, Qin Zhiyuan once discussed various business operation models with Allen. It must be admitted that Qin Zhiyuan is not as powerful as Allen said. He only knows the terms of many marketing techniques, but this It does not prevent Allen from understanding the meaning of those nouns, so Allen admires Qin Zhiyuan quite a lot.

"Your Majesty - what kind of person is he?" Jian, who had never met Qin Zhiyuan, was curious.

"You'll know when you see it!" Allen really couldn't find a suitable adjective.
