Chapter 263 Public Opinion Offensive
Chapter 263 Public Opinion Offensive
After chatting with Uncle Tom, William Chen talked about other things with his uncle John Dray.
"Are you really going to buy the country of Palu?"
After William Chen made the decision to buy Palu, he also consulted John Dray, so he also knew about this:
"Why did you choose there? And it is to buy a sovereign country. If you want to buy an island, you can buy a private island like other rich people, and no one will care what you do."
William Chen naturally couldn't tell his uncle the real reason, and he couldn't explain the volcanic eruption there in the future, but he had already thought about the corresponding reason.
"It's not buying a country, but Palu Island, just an island. Because it is the most suitable place at the moment, because in the current situation of Palu, after I buy this island, it does not belong to any country. Become a three-way zone, more freedom."
Chen William said to John Drey: "And it is small enough, it is the smallest island country in the world, and their current situation also provides the possibility of buying. The geographical location is also the main reason, it is far enough from the United States, and It is also within the sphere of influence of Australia, an ally of the United States, and it is very close to our Guam base, which is a good choice in terms of security and privacy. If it is South America, then Washington can’t help but look at it.”
What he said was also true. After comprehensive consideration, Palu is really a more suitable place.
"Is it for these reasons? I always thought you were trying to avoid taxes. If you really want to avoid taxes, then I don't recommend you buy there, because Palu has been on our blacklist. If you want to buy there, and then leave the United States Nationality, that would be a big problem."
William Chen understood what he meant. If that was the case, he would definitely be targeted by the country, which would not only affect his business behavior, but also have a considerable impact on the Drey family.
"On the contrary, I am here to solve this trouble. I will not let Palu continue to be a tax haven. What about a move by the country to expand its influence? Now that Palu has no independent currency, I may agree to use the US dollar as legal tender, and in terms of taxation, my business behavior in the United States will still contribute to the country. This, in effect, eliminates a tax haven and enables increased American influence in Oceania."
Hearing William Chen's words, John Drey thought for a while, nodded, and said: "However, there is no precedent for your situation in the world. There is only a previous territorial purchase between countries. But this is also It’s not impossible, before, you need to lobby the government, and I don’t recommend you to give up your American citizenship, which is a very good protection for you.”
What John Dray said is also true, maybe someone has heard of someone who bought an island and declared statehood.But that kind of country is not a country recognized by the international community. At best, it is just self-indulgence, and no country will establish diplomatic relations with him.
The purchase of sovereignty that has happened so far only happened before the country and the country, such as the United States. In history, after independence, there have been five purchases of territory, namely the purchase of Louisiana from France, Florida was purchased from Spain, Alaska from Russia, half of its territory from Mexico, and the Virgin Islands from Denmark. These territories accounted for almost half of the current land area of the United States.
However, most of these land purchases took place in the 19th century, and the latest purchase of the Virgin Islands from Denmark was also in 1917.
However, William Chen's purchase this time is a matter of a somewhat different nature. He just bought an island, but it is different from the ordinary purchase of a private island, because in the end after he bought Palu Island, the country ceased to exist. , so his island no longer belongs to any country, but the ownership belongs to him. This is still a relatively special case in the world.
In the end, John Drey recommended a person to William Chen—Naz Lyle, who used to be a senator, and later joined a lobbying group as a director. He is a very senior person with political connections.
If Chen William is going to lobby Washington for his purchase of Palu to obtain more favorable conditions for himself, he will be a very helpful person.
……
It's the end of May now, and it's less than five months before William Chen sees the scene in his future eyes, so we need to hurry up on the plan.
Chen William's think tank team has organized a group of experts in various fields to conduct research on his acquisition of Palu Island.
According to the team's opinion, it is first necessary to create conditions for him to acquire Palu from public opinion.
The propaganda of public opinion at this stage is to describe Palu's current critical situation and create a basis for William Chen's acquisition.
"It used to be the richest country in the South Pacific, why is it now in bankruptcy?"
"Dangerous! In a few years, this country will disappear."
"Palu, a typical example of a good hand played poorly..."
All of a sudden, Palu, a small and unremarkable country in the South Pacific, was frequently reported on Reddit, and related reports also appeared in some paper media.
All of this is naturally inspired by William Chen's team. At this stage, they will gradually release news in the media and public opinion in the United States, Australia, and Palu to guide everyone to discuss the future of this small South Pacific country and where to go.
Of course, the basic data of these reports are all true.
Palu's land area is constantly decreasing. In the last 20 years, Palu has lost 5 square kilometers of land, from 35 square kilometers in the last century to 30 square kilometers.
The most important reason is that the over-exploitation of phosphate mines has destroyed the geological structure of the island, and the coast has shrunk inward under the erosion of sea water; the other is global warming, which has caused sea levels to rise and submerged part of the land.Moreover, the long-term large-scale phosphate mining has also caused the island's altitude to drop by more than ten meters, and it is currently only more than 20 meters.
Of course, in some forecasts, experts will add a little pessimism, so the current mainstream caliber is that Palu is likely to be submerged in the near future.
The next discussion is naturally how Palu will save himself in this irresistible situation.Before, Palu had prepared to build a Palu Building in Australia, and also purchased many properties overseas to resettle nationals in emergency situations.
What Chen William's team needs to do now is to guide this kind of public opinion, and start to conduct analysis and polls on this feasibility in Australia and Palu.
Under the continuous output of pessimistic public opinion, the domestic opinion survey in Palu shows that more than 80% of the citizens believe that from now on, the citizens should be allowed to migrate in batches and start living in Australia.
According to opinion polls in Australia, the vast majority of people welcome the Palu people to move to Australia. After all, although the Palu government has gone bankrupt, the net value of the funds jointly owned by their people has dropped sharply. There are still many, which can stimulate the local economy of Australia.
Besides, the entire territory of Palu has a population of only 1.2 people. When you enter Australia, which is already a sparsely populated country, you can't see anything at all.
It’s just that if the whole Palu people move to Australia, then their country will definitely not be able to continue to exist, and it will become a country within a country. The Australian government will definitely not allow it, so the only way to enter is through immigration. , joined the Australian citizenship.
