It was already 11:30 pm when Minister Lorencino and Rodriguez came out of the hotel and got into the consulate's vehicle that had been parked outside.

Fang Mingyuan stood on the balcony, opened the window, and the sea breeze with a bit of moisture quickly poured into the room.

"Mingyuan, how was the conversation?" Lin Rong walked in quietly and stood behind Fang Mingyuan and asked.

"This Lorencino is a smart man!" Fang Mingyuan said, "He may have guessed that I am taking this opportunity to suppress the entry of genetically modified soybeans into Argentina."

Lin Rong smiled and said: "You guessed it, it doesn't matter, right? Will genetically modified soybeans be planted on a large scale in Argentina? Will farmers grow genetically modified soybeans or non-genetically modified soybeans? Will it have any impact on him? He is the Argentine economy

And the Minister of Public Finance, not the Minister of Agriculture! If Argentina cannot repay its foreign debt, this government will be in danger of collapse. Is genetically modified soybeans important, or is it important to avoid Argentina’s financial crisis, corporate crisis, political crisis, social crisis, and ourselves?

Does it matter if your career suffers a setback? Smart people will definitely choose the outcome that is most suitable for themselves and the country."

Fang Mingyuan burst into laughter. Just as Lin Rong said, if he guessed it, what could he do? Lorencino had no choice, and neither did the Argentine government!

Because they did not get the wild soybeans from China that they should have, Mengchandu Company underestimated Fang Mingyuan's determination in this matter. Although they later tried to obtain wild soybean seeds from China through various channels, they were unable to do so.

Once successful. This has also resulted in the Mengchendu Company’s research and development and promotion of genetically modified soybeans lagging seriously behind compared to previous generations. Until now, even in the United States, the genetically modified soybeans in its territory only account for 10% of all soybean production.

56. Argentina. It has just started to promote it, and it is far from reaching a mature stage. As for Brazil, the Brazilian government currently strictly prohibits genetically modified plants and does not allow them to be grown within the country.

In the previous life, Fang Mingyuan did not know the data of this time period, but he did know that by 200708, 80% of the soybeans in the United States were genetically modified soybeans, almost 100% in Argentina, and 100% in Brazil.

Twenty percent of soybeans are also genetically modified.

If Mengchendu Company could be stunned from the very beginning, perhaps genetically modified crops would not expand as rapidly around the world as they did in previous lives.

Fang Mingyuan is not against technological progress, but as he once said, not every technological progress is a good thing for mankind. Perhaps if a certain technology is used improperly, it will sound the death knell for mankind. Genetically modified genes

Crops, before there is conclusive and credible evidence to prove that they are truly harmless, Fang Mingyuan does not want his own people to be the guinea pigs.

Moreover, what Fang Mingyuan is even more worried about is that once the Mengchendu Company succeeds and promotes genetically modified crops, domestic officials and businessmen will only see that the oil content of genetically modified soybeans is two to five percentage points higher, and that they can simultaneously

Processing high-protein soybean meal with a premium to produce greater economic benefits. Seeing that domestically produced soybeans not only do not have those advantages, but are more expensive than genetically modified soybeans, they are imported on a large scale, and they still call it a beautiful name. This can

Freeing up more domestic fields to grow other crops, but neglecting to do so, is handing over control of the nation's edible oil to foreigners.

Fang Mingyuan remembered that after 2010, China imported more than 50 million tons of soybeans every year, accounting for 85% of the total soybeans that year! In other words, domestic soybeans only accounted for less than 100% of the total soybeans.

Fifteen! And in the future, if a war breaks out and the three largest soybean-producing countries in the Americas stop exporting soybeans to the country, what will they do? The huge amount of 50 million tons is the total of all other soybean exporting countries.

, and cannot guarantee China’s needs.

Soybeans, not clothes, socks, steamed buns, etc., can be produced in a short period of time. Even if we still have seeds and can expand planting in the second year, it will only be in the second year!

"Mingyuan, do you really want to buy so many soybeans?" Lin Rong asked softly. Although Fang Mingyuan did not hide this plan from her, and even discussed it with her again and again, Lin Rong was still thinking about it now.

I can’t help but be a little bit nervous. Once this contract is signed, by 2004, we will have to prepare 6 billion US dollars to buy Argentine soybeans. Otherwise, the 1.5 billion US dollars will really be wasted.

.

"It's okay. Even if the price of soybeans drops by then, we won't lose much money!" Fang Mingyuan put his arm around her shoulders and smiled, "But if I guess right, the profit will be at least doubled.

Don't worry, we can afford to pay now!" With strong domestic demand and non-GMO soybeans, it is easy for Fang Mingyuan to sell them.

"Where's Yu Xin?" Fang Mingyuan said. Lin Rong's body was still smelling of shower gel, mixed with her body fragrance, which made people intoxicated.

"She has been playing all day. She just shouted that she wanted to go to bed early and has already gone back to her room to rest." Lin Rong said with a smile, but there was a bit of a blush on her face.

"It's getting late, let's take a rest." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Yeah!" Lin Rong replied in an inaudible voice.

Fang Mingyuan rested here, but Lorencino and the others did not bother to rest at all after they returned to the Argentine Consulate in Rio de Janeiro.

"Guray, what do you think about what this person said?" Minister Lorencino asked Rodriguez directly. In the second half of the conversation, their topic was actually not limited to soybean trading, but also about soybean trading.

Regarding the current chaos in Argentina, Minister Lorencino also asked Fang Mingyuan for his views. Although Fang Mingyuan did not clearly state his views, the implication behind his words was that he was obviously not very optimistic about the future of the current Argentine government.

.

"Minister, I think what he said makes sense." Rodriguez carefully weighed his words and said carefully, "His US$1.5 billion loan can only provide emergency relief, but it cannot completely change Argentina's current situation.

Dilemma. And if this situation cannot be broken, the debt crisis or the government crisis will eventually come, but it will just be postponed for a while."

"Hmph!" Minister Lorencino snorted. He also understood that a mere 1.5 billion US dollars could only delay the outbreak of chaos in Argentina for some time. The reason why Argentina is in its current situation is because of the accumulated accumulation over the years.

A major outbreak of conflicts. Compared with the debt of 123 billion US dollars, 1.5 billion US dollars can only be said to be a drop in the bucket. If it were 15 billion US dollars, it would be about the same. But he also understood that,

With the current situation in Argentina, who dares to spend 15 billion US dollars to help Argentina stabilize society? Who is not afraid that this huge sum of money will be wasted in Argentina. If you can get this 1.5 billion US dollars, you can put an end to the unrest.

If the outbreak time is postponed for some time, it will already be a very good result.

However, Fang Mingyuan's words reminded him that if this soybean transaction went well, although it could not save the Argentine government, it could save his own career.

Lorencino and the current president belong to the same political party. If the president is forced to resign, it stands to reason that he will also resign along with him. When the new president takes office, as the saying goes, one emperor and one minister, like the economy and

The Minister of Public Finance, such an important position, is definitely a fat job in people's eyes.

However, if he can reach such a deal with Fang Mingyuan, which may eventually total up to 24 billion U.S. dollars, no matter how coveted his position is, those people will have to consider whether it will be possible if there is a replacement.

It will make Fang Mingyuan feel that the Argentine government is unable to ensure that the contract is actually fulfilled. You must know that even if there are ten more presidents, the foreign debt of 1.23 billion US dollars is a sword of Damos and may be destroyed at any time.

They cut off the presidential throne.

Therefore, in order to ensure that this deal can be carried out smoothly, Lorencino's status in the government can only be promoted, or in other words, he can stay in his original position. He must not be demoted, and he cannot give Fang Mingyuan a wrong message.

Thinking of this, Minister Lorencino couldn't help but curl up his lips. This trip to Rio de Janeiro was not in vain. In this way, he at least found a way out for himself. As long as this contract can be officially signed, his

The status can be said to be one of peace of mind.

However... he remembered another thing mentioned by Fang Mingyuan, about the devaluation of the Argentine currency peso. Although, so far, although the international community generally believes that in order to cope with the current predicament, the Argentine government will

It will significantly depreciate the currency peso. However, the Argentine government's foreign policy is quite consistent and will never allow the peso to depreciate.

The top government officials are planning to introduce a new currency control decree. The current draft of this decree will restrict the transfer of funds from domestic to foreign countries, and also stipulates that individual Argentine citizens can only withdraw cash from their accounts no more than US$250 a week.

This ensures that these banks in Argentina avoid a run on them.

But to be honest, Lorencino is not optimistic about this decree. As Fang Mingyuan said, this will only make the international community and Argentine people think that the devaluation of the peso is imminent. In order to avoid personal wealth overnight

A substantial reduction will further intensify social conflicts in Argentina. It will only bring greater trouble to Argentina in the future.
