Technology company, I will become the light of China!

Chapter 588: Probing each other's bottom line, the dispute over interests between China and Jap

The island nation of Tokyo.

Office of the Speaker of the Cabinet.

After learning about the conditions proposed by Chen Xing, Kamioka Hideki cursed: "Bakayarō, he is crazy, he actually wants to get involved in our power system!"

What is the power system?
People's livelihood and national defense.

Leaving aside people’s livelihood for now, just talking about national defense, it is impossible for the power system to be interfered with by other countries.

Those who often use excavators know that before excavating, they need to know whether there are any national defense cables or optical cables nearby. Once a national defense cable is dug up, sorry, not only will they have to pay compensation, but they will also be taken back for investigation.

If you are lucky, it will come out in half a month.

Those who are unlucky, for example, whose ancestors had the wrong stance or whose parents had been in jail, may not be able to get out for at least a year or two.

Because it involves national defense, no one dares to slack off.

Even if you did dig it up accidentally, who can guarantee that there won't be spies disguised as excavator operators deliberately digging up the national defense cables?
Take Iraq for example. Before the United States launched the Gulf War against it, it still felt good about itself and gathered millions of troops to fight hard. As a result, its communications and electricity were destroyed in the first place, making it a complete sitting duck.

Precisely because electricity for national defense is extremely important, anyone who crosses the red line will have their three generations of ancestors strictly investigated.

"So what do we do now?"

Yoshida Kiyoshi asked.

Yokoi Tomohiko on the side also said: "Looking at Chen Xing's attitude, it seems that there will be no room for negotiation if he doesn't agree."

"..."

Hideki Kamioka fell silent.

If I had known this would happen, I should have accepted the defeat and handed over the Toyota Group in its entirety to Chen Xing, which would have been more decent for both parties.

But now, people no longer urgently need Toyota Group's industrial system to complete industrial upgrading, because Lee Jae-yong directly transferred Hanxing Group to Chen Xing, and Hanxing Group has a certain industrial foundation of its own.

It's like you want to buy charcoal in the winter, but you encounter a black-hearted charcoal merchant who raises the price and asks for an exorbitant price. Just when you are about to give up, another charcoal merchant is willing to sell you charcoal at the original price. Without the urgent factor of "freezing to death", who would care about the price of the black-hearted charcoal?

Although Hanxing Group's industrial strength is not as good as Toyota Group and Honda Group, it can solve the urgent problem.

Nowadays, relying on the industrial system of Hanxing Group, some high-precision machine tools, semiconductor equipment, communication equipment, and smelting equipment have been replaced by domestic products.

For Chen Xing, the Toyota Group can no longer be said to be a timely help, but only icing on the cake.

This is also the reason why Chen Xing dared to make a big request and talk to the island country about the power system, because he didn't care at all. The one who was really anxious was the island country.

At this moment, the island nation's economy is not only lacking in domestic demand, but also is being driven away by Brazil's breach of contract when it wants to develop the land it has purchased. It's really a dog shaking its head when seeing this.

……

After thinking for dozens of seconds, Kamioka Hideki sighed and said helplessly: "Open the video chat and let me talk to him in person."

"That's...okay."

Kiyoshi Yoshida nodded in response.

Now they have no better solution, or rather, they have very little choice left.

If domestic economic problems are not resolved in a timely manner, the island nation’s overall GDP will immediately regress by several decades, and may even repeat the “lost three decades”.

As Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi returned to the office, they looked at Chen Xing at his desk, and a hint of surprise flashed across their eyes.

In their opinion, Chen Xing was too introverted. He started working just a few minutes after they went out. He simply didn't waste any time.

How do you say that?

I am not afraid of not having talent, I am afraid that others have talent but work harder than me.

The most desperate thing is that you can’t compete with others in terms of talent or hard work.

However, what Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi did not know was that the content of their conversation had already been completely monitored by Chen Xing, thanks to the "Call Signal Electromagnetic Wave Replication Technology" developed by the Information and Communication Laboratory.

As we all know, the principle of mobile phone calls is to convert the content of speech into digital signals, which are then transmitted by the built-in antenna to a nearby base station and then sent to the corresponding base station to complete communication between the two places.

Senior national officials like Kiyoshi Yoshida and Hideki Kamioka basically use customized encrypted phones.

Not only are digital signals encrypted and contain garbled interference, but some can also directly connect to communications satellites to enable long-distance encrypted calls.

As the name suggests, the "Call Signal Electromagnetic Wave Replication Technology" is to capture the digital signal electromagnetic waves of the call, and then transmit it from the base station of the Sakata base. Due to the increased receiving and transmitting power, the call delay time is almost the same as usual.

In summary, as long as he is at the Bantian base of the Longxing Group, Chen Xing is fully capable of eavesdropping on anyone's conversation without being discovered.

Of course.

Because of the privacy issue, he did not abuse it.

Chen Xing didn't have the habit of eavesdropping on others, and he was very busy himself. If he had the time, he might as well take a rest.

"What do you think?"

Chen Xing stood up.

He walked out of his office, gestured for a seat, and returned to his previous single seat.

"Because it involves the power system, this is beyond our authority. Speaker Hideki Kamioka wants to talk to you in person." Kiyoshi Yoshida did not rush to take a seat, but first asked Chen Xing for his opinion.

"can."

Chen Xing said without thinking.

After getting Chen Xing's permission, the two of them took their seats. Tomohiko Yokoi at the side picked up his briefcase and took out the Apple laptop inside. After a simple operation, the video connection was successful.

"Mr. Chen, it's our first meeting. Please give me your guidance."

Hideki Kamioka greeted with a smile.

At this moment, he had a kind face and a dimple could be seen on his left cheek. From the outside, he looked like a kind old man.

However, those who understand the culture of the island nation know that this kind of kindness is not true kindness, but a dagger hidden behind a smile, which can be seen from the island nation’s police.

Because the island police often speak in a kind tone and with a smile on their faces during the law enforcement process. If you let your guard down because of this, I'm sorry, you will either have to stay in jail for a few days or pay a sky-high fine.

If I had to describe them in one word, it would be good at inducing!

Because of Dragon Country's recent history and the Island Country's actions in the Toyota Group incident, Chen Xing had a very bad impression of the Island Country and did not give it a good look. "I don't deserve your advice. Let's get to the point. We both have limited time."

"That's right, Mr. Chen, you have just returned to China, and the group must have a lot of things to deal with." Hideki Kamioka agreed repeatedly without any airs.

Under normal circumstances, Chen Xing would never reach out to hit someone who was smiling, but who made the person in front of him the little bastard he hated?
"You also know the three conditions. Whether you agree or not, give an accurate signal." Chen Xing emphasized again.

Facing Chen Xing's relentless and unyielding questioning, Kamioka Hideki frowned slightly, feeling a little unhappy, but he still nodded and smiled, "Yes, yes, let's talk about the point, which is... um... can we balance the electricity condition?"

"No."

Chen Xing was firm in his attitude.

If it were in the past, he might have agreed, but who could have thought that Lee Jae-yong would sell Hanxing Group and allow Longxing Group to temporarily get rid of the predicament of industrial equipment?

“Is there no room for maneuver?”

Hideki Kamioka lost his previous kindness and his smile disappeared. Chen Xing's attitude made him understand that they were determined to take advantage of them and make the island country a "blood supply package".

In Chen Xing's opinion, the island country has been a blood bag for the United States for so long, so wouldn't it be the same for the Dragon Country? Is this condition difficult?
Moreover, if the island nation's economy had not been in dire straits and even the United States could not resolve the problem, Chen Xing was sure that the other party would not be so servile and greet him with a smile.

Being kind to your enemies means being cruel to yourself. Even children understand this truth.

Even though Kamioka Hideki was so angry that his teeth itched, he still made a decision for the sake of the overall situation and said, "Okay, we promise you."

These words seemed to have drained all his strength, and the moment he said them, his back was visibly bent a little.

The United States is unable to solve the problems currently faced by the island country and can only unconditionally agree to the conditions proposed by Chen Xing.

Otherwise, the island country might really become the next Thailand.

Those who know history know that Thailand was not weak at all in the past, and its economy was extremely strong. It was because Soros shorted the Thai baht and drained the country's economy that Thailand missed the opportunity for industrialization and completely became a tourism and color industry country.

If we want to solve the domestic economic deflation problem, we can only agree to Chen Xing’s conditions unconditionally.

"Oh, there is one more condition."

Chen Xing suddenly thought of something.

After hearing that there was a condition, Hideki Kamioka silently clenched his fists. If possible, he really wanted to use 7.62 bullets to wash Chen Xing's hair. This man was really greedy.

But for the sake of the overall situation, he still endured it, but he gritted his teeth and emphasized his tone to express his dissatisfaction: "You say!" "Fully lift the tariff restrictions on Dragon Country companies, such as Xinjiang Technology, Kunpeng Company, Rice Company, etc."

Chen Xing ignored Kamioka Hideki's anger and continued to do as he pleased.

Because Dragon Country's products are selling so well, especially Kunpeng's communication equipment and Xinjiang Technology's drones, the island country has also followed Europe and the United States and raised tariffs in order to control the trade deficit.

"Row."

Hideki Kamioka agreed again.

"There is one final condition."

As soon as Chen Xing finished speaking, Yokoi Tomohiko couldn't hold back anymore and slammed the table, saying, "Chen Xing, don't go too far."

The sound of his slamming the table immediately attracted the attention of Tang Long at the door. He immediately opened the door of his office and glanced at Kiyohiko Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi with a fierce look.

The two men, who were less than 1.7 meters tall, looked at the ferocious Tang Long and their anger immediately subsided, and they became much more rational.

Force may not be the solution, but it is the most direct way.

"Cough cough."

Chen Xing coughed twice, waved his hand, and signaled Tang Long to go out first.

Seeing that nothing happened in the office, Tang Long glared at Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi, then left the office and closed the door again.

The moment Tang Long left, Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi breathed a sigh of relief, as they had heard of this man's reputation a long time ago.

Initially, the United States sent agents to infiltrate the Longxing Group in an attempt to steal chip secrets, but they were beaten one by one with a punch, and the female agent even had her joints broken.

In the face of absolute power, people will always remain calm and sober.

Kamioka Yingshu also saw Tang Long's appearance. He was a little scared even through the screen. Seeing that he had left, he decided to consider the overall situation and said, "Tell me, what other conditions do you have?"

"The island nation's information and communications are under the full responsibility of our Longxing Group."

"no!"

Hideki Kamioka did not hesitate this time. He tolerated electricity and tariffs, but information and communication was his last bottom line and he would never give in.

"Don't you want to consider it?"

Chen Xing tried again.

Hideki Kamioka was extremely serious and responded: "The State Grid Corporation of China is the world's top power company. We can cooperate to gain what we need, but in the field of information and communications, this concerns the privacy of the people of the island, and I cannot give in at all!"

The air was silent again at this moment, and neither side spoke again.

After finding out the other party's bottom line, Chen Xing, who had been tense, suddenly smiled and gave in: "What if we talk about a joint venture?"

"joint venture?"

Hideki Kamioka was puzzled.

Chen Xing was also very patient and explained: "My Longxing Group selected an island country's communications company to provide communications technology. We only extract profits and do not participate in operations. It is similar to a joint venture between a car company and a car company."

"No."

Hideki Kamioka was resolute.

At this time, he was also testing Chen Xing's bottom line. This condition was acceptable in principle. After all, the actual operation of the 5G network still depends on Longxing Group, but its market share is not large.

"Then let's stop here."

Chen Xing stood up without any bargaining. At this time, he was also testing Kamioka Hideki's bottom line. If the other party insisted on not agreeing, then he would have to give up.

Both sides are testing each other frantically, and it depends on who will give in and compromise first.

Seeing Chen Xing ordering him to leave, Kamioka Yingshu only held out for two seconds before quickly changing his tone and saying, "Okay, but the prerequisite is that we choose a telecommunications company. I hope Mr. Chen can understand that."

"no problem."

Chen Xing smiled and sat down again.

Watching the tug of war, the probing, and the rapid changes of expression between the two, Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi felt like rookies.

If they were in their shoes, they would have been defeated long ago.

Looking at the smile on Chen Xing's lips, Kamioka Hideki couldn't help but hammer his thigh. He finally found out the other party's bottom line, but it was too late. If he could do it again, he would definitely insist a little longer.

Unfortunately, there is no if in reality.

"When will the contract be signed?" Hideki Kamioka admitted defeat.

"Um…"

Chen Xing thought for half a second, then said, "This matter involves tariffs, electricity, communications, and deep trade between the two countries. I don't have the authority to make the final decision. You need to come to Longguo in person, and I will make an appointment with the relevant departments to finalize the details."

"How about the day after tomorrow?"

"Maybe in a week, to give each other enough time to prepare."

"can."

"See you in the capital in a week."

"it is good!"

As the video call ended, Chen Xing also reached a preliminary consensus with Kamioka Hideki, but the final decision was not in his hands. Instead, he needed to consult Wang Shan's opinion before making a decision.

But Chen Xing personally felt that with the three bargaining chips of tariffs, electricity and communications, Wang Shan should not refuse.

After all, our number one enemy now is the United States. The primary plan is to bring the United States down from the altar and realize the great rejuvenation of the Dragon Country.

"Mr. Chen, we'll go back first."

"Goodbye, Mr. Chen."

The matter was initially finalized, and Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi also planned to leave.

"Don't you want to have dinner together?"

Chen Xing stood up and said politely.

Kiyoshi Yoshida and Tomohiko Yokoi also knew that Chen Xing was being polite, so they declined, "No, we won't bother you, Mr. Chen."

"Okay then, be careful on the road."

"Thanks for your concern."

Chen Xing watched the two of them leave.

After the two left, he immediately dialed Wang Shan's cell phone number.

The call was connected in just one second. It was obvious that the old man had been waiting for Chen Xing's calls all this time.

"How's it going?"

"What conditions does the other party offer?"

"Have you encountered any difficult problems?"

Faced with a series of questions, Chen Xing smiled calmly. He could clearly feel Wang Shan's excitement and urgency.

You know, Longguo, Japan and South Korea almost established the East Asian Economic Alliance, but it was forced down by the United States.

It is not just the East Asian Economic Union. When the European Union was first established, the United States was also behind the scenes, stirring up internal strife among EU countries, resulting in the euro being unable to replace the US dollar and becoming the preferred trading currency for EU countries.

"The other party agreed to all my conditions almost unconditionally, and my condition was...

1. Allow Longxing Chemical to enter the island country market and establish a production plant.

2. The infrastructure construction of new energy vehicles in the island country will be funded by the island country and constructed by our Longxing Group.

3. The island country’s power system will be handed over to the Dragon Country State Grid Corporation.”

When Chen Xing said this, Wang Shan couldn't help but exclaimed "Ah", wondering if he had heard it wrong. The island country's power system will be taken over by Dragon Country Enterprises. Are they sure the other party will accept this?
Sensing Wang Shan's confusion, Chen Xing simply gave a date and said, "In a week, Kamioka Hideki will arrive in the imperial capital. At that time, you will have to personally supervise it."
