Resource Tycoon Reborn

Chapter 616 The result of not listening to persuasion

The world was still not peaceful in April. Croatia and Albania joined NATO, NATO was further expanded, the central parity rate of the Chinese dollar against the U.S. dollar "broke seven" for the first time, and the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Commission allowed the U.S. Federal Home Loan Banking System to increase its holdings by more than 70%.

100 billion US dollars of mortgage-backed bonds issued by Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. The Institute of International Finance, on behalf of the global banking giants, publicly admitted for the first time that the banking industry is responsible for the credit crisis. BHP Billiton Group Co. and Rio Tinto Group Co. continued

The fierce battles for acquisitions and counter-acquisitions continued, and there was still no substantial progress in iron ore price negotiations in 2008. "Tangshan Earthquake" continued to conquer the Chinese domestic film market, and local governments even organized personnel to go there

Watch in theaters, Goldman Sachs announces layoffs...

But at this time, most of Fan Mingyuan's thoughts were not on this. Seeing that Li Xintong's due date was approaching, how could he still have so much energy at this time! Even the phone call from South Korea's President Lee Min-bo was...

The tone is perfunctory and dismissive.

"Your Excellency, my wife will give birth in the near future, and I have no time to think about it now! Besides, haven't I mentioned this situation to Your Excellency before? How did Your Excellency the President answer me at that time? You said you

I will consider it carefully. Since you have already considered it carefully, you should be prepared to deal with it! Okay, okay, the doctor is looking for me, that's it." Fang Mingyuan hung up the phone.

Li Minbo held the phone blankly and hesitated for a moment before sighing and hanging up the phone. At this time, he no longer had the high spirits he had when he took office as president, and his face was full of worry.

From April 10 to April 14, Lee Min-bo visited the United States. This was his first overseas visit after becoming the president of South Korea. He met with U.S. President George W. Bush, and the two sides reached an agreement. The U.S. government agreed to reduce

The number of troops stationed in South Korea, and agreed that Koreans coming to the United States can be exempted from visas if their stay does not exceed three months. The South Korean government reciprocated and agreed to open the domestic market to American beef starting in June. This is also in exchange for

The U.S. Congress passed the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement. This was an important condition put forward by the Americans when the two countries reached the Korea-U.S. Free Trade Agreement. Due to the delay in action by the Koreans, many members of the U.S. Congress have publicly declared that they will veto this agreement.

A trade agreement!

South Korea's economy relies heavily on foreign trade, and the United States is undoubtedly one of South Korea's most important export markets. In order to achieve this goal, Lee Min-bo can be said to have no choice. Just on April 3, South Korean astronaut Lee So-yeon flew on board

The Russian Soyuz spacecraft took off to the International Space Station, becoming the first Korean female astronaut in history and the second Asian woman to enter space! Although, Lee So-yeon was able to go to the International Space Station because of the cooperation between the Korean government and Russia.

The government reached a commercial contract for which the South Korean government paid Russia up to 20 million U.S. dollars. Therefore, Lee So-yeon's identity on the Soyuz spacecraft, according to the Russian Soyuz spacecraft and NASA documents and brief news, is just a

A participant in space flight, but this incident still makes Koreans crazy about it! When the Soyuz spacecraft was launched and when Lee So-yeon entered the International Space Station, every TV set in South Korea was broadcasting the scene live.

, from the new President Lee Min-Bo to the common people, they are paying attention to her every move. When she successfully entered the International Space Station, it triggered nationwide cheers in South Korea.

Lee Min-Bo also made timely remarks, stating that he would further promote South Korea's aerospace industry and strive to make South Korea one of the aerospace powers in ten years! This has increased his domestic support rate, exceeding

Seventy percent! This greatly increased Li Minbo's confidence. In addition, George W. Bush attached great importance to South Korea's opening of its market to American beef, so he had to make some concessions on this matter. In the agreement

The monthly age limit on imported U.S. beef has been lifted, which means the import of beef over thirty months old is allowed. Prior to this, the South Korean government and the U.S. government made it clear in previous negotiations that South Korea would never import beef over thirty months old.

Beef that is more than 30 months old because according to some scientific research reports, beef cattle that are more than 30 months old have a high probability of developing mad cow disease. Since the discovery of mad cow disease, almost 100% of the mad cow disease cases worldwide are in this area.

Monthly age. Therefore, internationally, although many countries have relaxed the ban on beef from countries where mad cow disease has occurred, they have generally imposed restrictions on the age of months.

What Li Minbo never expected was that the removal of the age limit on imported U.S. beef in the agreement triggered strong protests in South Korea. Not only were domestic cattle farmers excited, but the media continued to criticize it.

, even the recently elected National Assembly caused a great uproar. Members of the opposition party openly declared that if the Lee Min Bo government did not amend the agreement, the opposition party would refuse to attend the legislative session of the National Assembly. This will undoubtedly make

The operation of Congress came to a standstill! When he returned to South Korea after consciously completing his state visit to the United States successfully, he was struck dizzy by this blow!

Only then did he remember that before he officially took office, Fang Mingyuan had reminded him to pay attention to the negative impacts of reaching a beef import agreement with the United States! However, at that time, with an approval rate as high as nearly 70%

After being successfully elected as the president of South Korea, he was just waiting to take office. Although he did not turn a deaf ear to this reminder, he did not attach much importance to it. But at this time, he suddenly realized that Fang Mingyuan's original proposal meant a lot to him.

How precious!

It's just...since he doesn't attach much importance to it, it is naturally impossible to prepare many back-up moves in advance. It's not that he has no preparation at all, but it is completely insufficient!

Before he went to the United States, although there were domestic voices opposed to opening up the market to American beef, many people were looking forward to the passage of the Korea-US Free Trade Agreement, which is a major issue related to exports to the United States. On the other hand,

This is also because there is actually a precedent between South Korea and the United States regarding the issue of beef imports. After the outbreak of mad cow disease in the United States, South Korea also lifted the ban on American beef several times, but they all required that the exported beef from the United States must be under 30 months old.

Boneless beef with the entire spine, skull, brain, eyes, spinal cord, tonsils, and terminal ileum removed within a month was later banned again because Americans did not comply thoroughly enough. So when he thought about it, although the opposition was loud,

But it does not affect the overall situation. In a democratic country, it would be a big weird thing if no one publicly criticizes most of the government's policies, and the media, the opposition party and the ruling party all sing their praises.

But he never imagined that even though he had slightly modified the previous agreement and relaxed some restrictions, he would arouse far stronger opposition in the country than during the previous president's term. Even members of the opposition party dared to do so.

For this reason, he threatened to paralyze Congress! This undoubtedly made the originally high-spirited Li Minbo feel as if he had been slapped in the face, and his face was on fire.

In order to calm down this matter as soon as possible, we cannot give these people in the country more time to push this matter into a more difficult situation. The opposition parties also control the media, not to mention the Internet now. Li Minbo

He was keenly aware that if this matter continued to escalate, it would be very detrimental to him! Otherwise, Fang Mingyuan would not have reminded him through Li Jianxi before he took office, so he made this call.

But... Fang Mingyuan's reaction was really beyond his expectation, but now that he thinks about it, it is reasonable. As the president of South Korea, of course he can know some things that ordinary people don't know, such as

He knew that Li Jianxi's family was neither in Seoul nor South Korea, but in Fengyuan City, Qinxi Province, China, because the child Fang Mingyuan was about to give birth to was also a member of the Li family!

The birth of this child, no more than that of Li Xinzhen and their children, has extraordinary significance for the Li family and the future Samsung Group! Li Minbo has also heard that Fang Mingyuan seems to have given away considerable shares of Samsung Group.

Although this news has never been recognized by the Li family, Li Minbo would rather believe that he has it than not. This means that this child will not be able to be reborn in the future.

Fang Mingyuan inherited a huge amount of assets in his name. With the property he received from his mother, it was enough to exert sufficient influence on Samsung Group Company! Compared with the inheritance of shares of Samsung Group Company, in Fang Mingyuan's eyes, he

Your Excellency, the President, whose term of office is limited to only five years and cannot be re-elected due to the constraints of the opposition party, is indeed not worthy enough!

"Alas..." Li Minbo let out a long sigh. Li Jianxi is not in the country now. Although he can call Li Jianxi or even Li Yinghao, can Li Jianxi give him advice? Is it possible?

I still have to ask Fang Mingyuan, if that is the case... will it make Fang Mingyuan even more angry? He is also a father, so he can naturally understand that in the few days before a child is due to give birth, a man will inevitably be impetuous and angry at every turn.

, Although today's science and technology have greatly reduced the risks of women's childbirth, who dares to say that it is foolproof? It seems that before the child is born, it is impossible for him to get any advice from Fang Mingyuan, but what to do, Li Min

Platinum is having trouble making a decision now. At this time, a wrong decision will undoubtedly add fuel to the already tense social mood!

Li Jianxi and Li Yinghao exchanged glances. When Fang Mingyuan answered the phone, the father and son were sitting opposite him. Although they did not hear clearly what Li Minbo said, from Fang Mingyuan's answer and their understanding of the domestic situation in South Korea,

Understood, it is not difficult to figure it out. Someone had already reported to them the fact that Li Mingyuan stabbed Lou Zi during his trip to the United States. Li Jianxi couldn't help but lamented why Fang Mingyuan was his son-in-law and not his son. Otherwise, he would definitely be here now

Just make him his heir. Not to mention how much Fang Mingyuan is worth and how famous he is in the world. With this political sensitivity, Fang Mingyuan is definitely a person that every president in South Korea is unwilling to offend!

You must know that before Fang Mingyuan mentioned this matter to him, Li Minbo had just won the election. Importing American beef is a commonplace item between the two governments. It will be mentioned almost every once in a while, but who would have thought that he could get 70%

Lee Min-Bo, whose support rate is so high, will overturn this matter!

However, Li Yinghao was a little anxious. No matter what happened to Lee Min-bo, he was the president of South Korea after all, the first person in the political arena, and it was the Lee family who vigorously promoted his rise to power. If Lee Min-bo had "overturned the ship" on the issue of American beef,

", it is also very disadvantageous for the Li family. But looking at Fang Mingyuan's appearance, although he is said to be his brother-in-law, Li Yinghao does not have the courage to instruct him. So he can only wink at his father, even if Fang Mingyuan

I am too lazy to pay attention to Li Minbo now. If my father Li Jianxi asks, he will definitely say a few words. In this case, even if it is relayed to Li Minbo, it will have some effect, right?

Li Jianxi sighed softly in his heart. He was not blind, so he could naturally see his son winking at him and understood his intentions, but he pretended not to see it! He would not do anything like that.

What about that kind of stupid thing? No matter how important Li Minbo is, how important is Fang Mingyuan and Li Xintong's first child? And this is a boy. If nothing unexpected happens, he will most likely inherit Fang Mingyuan's role in the future.

Shares of Samsung Group Company Now that Li Jianxi has given up hope that the Li family can regain the dominance of Samsung Group Company from Fang Mingyuan, he can only comfort himself. After all, this child also has half of Li

The blood of the Cui family, isn’t it true that his own grandson also has half of the Cui family’s blood in him?

No matter how important Lee Min Bo is, without him, Samsung Group's status in the Korean economy will collapse? Besides, he can only serve for five years at most, and he will hate the Li family and the Fang family to the core.

What can be done between the two families? Which of the two things is more important, is there any need to say? Although my son has already married and established a career, he still cannot see through some things.

Even geniuses have no choice when they must lie dormant, and those who cannot see through this will not end well in the end! Many talented and amazing figures in Chinese history have proven this! (~^
