Homo sapiens

Just when Homo sapiens Company was busy "opening up" the market in Luzon and Hongsawady, and preparing to deal with Du Shuping, Wu Heguang and others.

In Borneo, Chen Jianxiong reported several very important things to Li Qingye through submarine optical cables.

three days ago

October 18th.

Southeast Asia, Star Island in the Strait of Malacca.

Li Weixing, the president of Temasek Investments, appeared in the VIP lounge of the airport in a low-key manner. In addition to him, there were also Xu Yingming of the Luzon Xu family, Cairns Aquino of the Aquino family, and Guo Zihao of the Kuok family of Malaysia.

Xu Yingming and this group of people chatted like brothers, as if they were a family.

"Keynes, I heard that the Fernando family and the Lopez family put a lot of pressure on you?" Li Weixing asked with a smile.

Keynes did not hide it. After all, this kind of thing cannot be hidden from the people present. He gritted his teeth and replied: "Yes, they have been very active recently. My family has lost a lot, and they actually want to launch a food self-sufficiency plan. If they succeed, Now, Garfield can definitely be elected, we must disrupt their plans."

The Guo family, who wears the same pants as ABCD, will naturally not object to this kind of thing. After all, it is harming the interests of their family. Guo Zihao said with a smile:

"The people over there are very angry about what happened this time. The Fernando family and the Lopez family are seeking their own death."

Seeking death? Who will win is still unknown, Xu Yingming sneered secretly in his heart.

Everyone present had their own concerns. Some thought they were sure of victory, while others were thinking about how to profit from it. However, no one thought that ABCD might fail in Luzon.

After all, in their view, Luzon is not a Chinese country and has no qualifications to compete with ABCD. If they stand on the side of the winner, they will definitely get a share of the soup.

More than an hour later.

People from Temasek investors trotted in and whispered a few words in Li Weixing's ear.

Li Weixing smiled: "Our friends are here, let's get ready!"

The low-key Xu Yingming stood up and adjusted his collar in front of the dressing mirror, with a confident and calm smile on his face.

The others quickly got dressed.

After a while, a middle-aged white woman with short blond hair was the first to appear at the door of the VIP room.

Li Weixing immediately greeted him with a smile on his face: "Hello, I am Max (Li Weixing's English name), the president of Temasek Investment. It is a great honor to meet you, Ms. Catherine."

The capable Catherine stretched out her hand: "Hello, Max."

Then another fat Mediterranean man appeared at the door.

"Hi, I am..."

The two sides made various introductions.

Katherine Adams is the vice president of ADM, the fat Mediterranean man is James Benjamin, the vice president of Cargill, and the last one to arrive is Weber O. Henry, the vice president of Bunge.

As for Louis Richard, the representative of the Louis Dafa Company, he had arrived at Xingdao last night. The reason why he did not come with him was because the headquarters of Louis Dafoe is in France.

Of course, America is actually behind ABCD, even Louis Dafoe, but the shareholders behind it are relatively hidden.

Under the leadership of Li Weixing.

They arrived at a business hotel that had already been prepared, and spent the afternoon eating, drinking, and chatting.

Around eight o'clock in the evening, everyone who participated in this secret meeting arrived.

In addition to representatives from ABCD, there are also representatives from large families from Sing Tao, Malaysia, Siam, Luzon and Tianzhu.

Among them are not only large Chinese business families, but also imperial groups similar to Siam, large Malay families, and wealthy businessmen from Annam and Tianzhu.

Without exception, these people are all involved in the food and agricultural products industry in Southeast Asia and South Asia. Only ABCD has the ability to connect so many forces.

Xu Yingming, who was hiding among them, remembered all these people.

As the most comprehensive ADM company involved in the rice industry, Catherine was the leader of this secret meeting. When she opened her mouth, she was filled with murderous intent:

"We want all our friends to make money, but if anyone stands in the way of us making money, he is our enemy."

"Luzon, Malaysia, and Java grow cash crops, and Siam, Annan, and Tianzhu supply rice. This is a plan in which everyone can make money, but there are always people who don't believe in the free market, so we must let them know the power of the free market. .”

Li Weixing supported: "Ms. Catherine has spoken out what all of us feel. The actions of the Fernando family and the Lopez family are betraying and destroying the rules of the free market and trying to use evil models to destroy the interests of everyone. This is unethical."

Others also quickly expressed their opinions.

Their words can be summed up in one sentence, that is, the crimes of the Fernando family and the Lopez family are so heinous that everyone can punish them.

'The hypocrisy of human beings has been brought to life by you. ’ Xu Yingming secretly mocked.

Catherine was very satisfied with the performance of these guys. She smiled and continued:

"There is a saying that I like very much. Treat your friends as tenderly as spring, and treat your enemies as coldly as winter."

"Let us now use the rules of the free market to teach these disobedient children a lesson and make them regret their actions."

Then Catherine came up with a plan.

This plan is very simple. It is to temporarily increase the price of food supply in Luzon and increase the enthusiasm of farmers in Luzon for food production.

On the other hand, it gradually increased the price of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and agricultural machinery supplied to Luzon, and at the same time allowed the Aquino family's banks to lend money to farmers so that they could obtain pesticides, chemical fertilizers and agricultural machinery.

Waiting until the rice harvest period in the next quarter, large-scale shipments will be made immediately, suppressing the market price of rice, causing the local rice production cost in Luzon to be higher than the retail price, and Luzon farmers will quickly go bankrupt.

This can also hit the rice industry of the Fernando family and the Lopez family.

On the other hand, people spread the news on the Internet that the Fernando family and the Lopez family haphazardly guided farmers to plant rice, causing widespread bankruptcies among farmers in Luzon.

While dumping rice at low prices, the Xu family, Marcus family, and Aquino family must join forces to purchase grain from farmers in Luzon at low prices.

Waiting for the next season, it will promote the planting boom of cash crops, attract the remaining farmers to plant cash crops, and reduce the rice planting area in a large area.

Then, artificial scarcity can be created to trigger a tight global rice supply and drive up food prices in Luzon.

By this means, Luzon was harvested repeatedly.

This plan had already been used by ABCD in Luzon back then, and everyone present knew the inside story. Although doing so would make the people of Luzon miserable, what does this have to do with them?

As long as they can make money, they will even dare to sell the rope used to hang themselves.

The rich and big families in Siam, Annan, and Tianzhu are even more gearing up.

Because they don't want to see Luzon achieve self-sufficiency in food, which will cause their rice export prices to fall.

In the face of interests, not to mention the tens of millions of hungry people in Luzon, even ordinary people in their own country, in the eyes of these people, are just a group of consumables and cattle and sheep.

Following ABCD in harvesting Luzon, they had no psychological burden and were even very excited to do it.

The next step is the specific division of labor and cooperation.

Among them, the Aquino family, Xu family, and Marcus family in Luzon are very critical, because they must cooperate internally and externally to ensure accurate harvesting.
