Chapter 1174 Emergencies
In the lounge of the station, Charlie (sister) looked at the empty lounge and the four people in the lounge, and she asked curiously, "Are there only four of you?"

The salesman who had been communicating with her smiled, "What are you worried about?"

Charlie (sister) did not hesitate, she is now a "customer", she spent money, and she also knew that she spent several times more than a normal order, she would not wrong herself after spending so much money .

The aggressive attitude started to rise again within a safe range, and she looked at the salesman, "I don't think you can protect me, if there are only four of you."

The salesman looked around, "Don't worry, we are professional..."

At the same time, in the conference room of Bu Pain's International Affairs Department, Mr. Truman folded his five fingers and tapped the table twice with his knuckles. He reiterated, "Please rest assured, we are professionals!"

He paused as he spoke, and looked at the gentlemen in the room. This is the sixth meeting around the "World Development Committee". Gefla did not stand up to slow down the process, but it does not mean that they will do nothing Do.

They may have reached some agreements with certain countries in private, raised some objections and problems that need to be resolved, in order to try to increase the workload of the Federation.

In fact, whether they themselves, the federal government, or Mr. Truman, everyone knows that this ugly little trick doesn't really work.

In the end it will still pass, but the disgusting thing...it is not just a bad taste, it actually satisfies the psychological needs of the "victim".

It sounds a bit confusing, what psychological needs can the victim have?
In fact, there are some cases that have been detected by the federal government. There are many victims who eventually become accomplices of the perpetrators, or habitually bear the inflicted harm.

This is a kind of psychological need. They can complete this process through certain hints. No matter what they ultimately need is safety or other things, the whole process will be surprising and sometimes a little scary.

The same is true for diplomacy. Adding trouble to the Federation may not necessarily prevent the final establishment of the World Development Council, but for the Gefra people, it is enough to see that the Federation has a headache for them.

The position of those small countries is the same. They will not make things too difficult for the Federation people. They just got some benefits promised by Gefra, such as trade orders, and they are slightly responsible for their own interests, that's all.

The main reason why the World Development Committee has not been established until now is that many similar small problems have not been resolved.

For example, some countries hope that the headquarters of the World Development Committee can be located in their own country. There are at least four or five countries that have this idea.

Others believe that in the process of weighting the federal currency, the federation should also give more benefits to member states in mutual trade, such as lowering tariffs on both sides, adding more equipment that can be exported, and providing sensitive technology transfer or cooperation Chance.

These things are actually nothing, and they can be resolved in the end, but there are too many names, and there are always endless talks.

This time, the problem that some small countries want to let the federal people help them develop their industries is solved. Now 23 countries have expressed their willingness to join the World Development Committee, which also makes the federal government very excited.

But then there are some...begging questions.

For example, some small countries that do not have the basis for industrialization also want to achieve basic industrialization. They have no choice but to turn to the Federation for help.

The bargaining chip in exchange was that they would agree to most of the terms of the Treaty.

A consortium can solve the problem, but it still has to be solved in the meeting. Mr. Truman didn't even consider these problems, so he gave an affirmative answer.

And what he said is not wrong at all, the federal people are indeed professional in helping other countries develop basic industries.

As for whether the developed basic industries depend on the continuous blood supply of the Federation, that is another question.

After all, they didn't talk about these in the talks, they just simply hoped to realize the idea of ​​basic industry.

Representatives of several small countries showed satisfied smiles on their faces. Most of these countries are resource-based countries, or agricultural and animal husbandry countries.

The country's main industrial commodities rely on imports, which makes them lack the initiative in many cases, and they are always taken advantage of by others.

For example, a certain country once invited international bids for a thermal power plant. Up to now, this outdated core technology of thermal power generation is still in the hands of others.

Whenever there is a problem with the thermal power station, they have to spend a lot of money to invite the original construction party to solve the problem.

Sometimes they just come here and do things here and there, and they solve it without changing a single part, but the charges are scary.

There is also a country that supplies a kind of rough-processed parts to the world. There are some consumables in the entire assembly line. The manufacturing technology of these consumables has been firmly grasped by the technology exporting country.

Every once in a while, they have to spend a lot of money to buy some consumable spare parts that are actually worthless and put them on the assembly line to maintain production.

A large amount of profits have been taken away by foreign companies, which makes them hate these foreigners while eagerly wanting to realize the process of basic industrialization.

At least, they can manufacture some simple things by themselves instead of relying on foreigners for everything.

Lynch sat in the last position, looking at some of the materials in his hands, and he thought that by around October, everything would be settled and established.

Looking at the diplomats who were still talking about various appeals, Lynch raised his wrist and looked at the watch on his wrist. It was not far from eleven o'clock.

As soon as the weekend is over, the strike in the entire federation also ends. This strike is actually more like a demonstration. There is no complete confrontation between labor and capital, and there is still room for relaxation.

And that's what workers' unions need.

It is impossible for the working class to really give up their current jobs, and it is impossible for the capitalists to really shut down the factories. The redevelopment of the real industry makes it impossible for them to leave the workers for a long-term suspension.

And so representatives of the workers' union showed up in offices, or workshops, in formal attire, briefcases in hand, as they had done in the best days.

They are responsible for negotiating with the capitalists on behalf of the working class, and discussing the results of the negotiations with the working class. During this process, the workers' union once again demonstrated its role and value, and thus obtained many invisible benefits.

There are intangible benefits, such as prestige, workers' renewed recognition of workers' unions.

There are tangible benefits, such as banknotes, cars, houses...

It seems that the strike is over, but in fact, the negotiations that are entangled with interests have just begun.

However, strikes and demonstrations are not all bad. At least after the strikes and demonstrations, the security of each city has been improved to a certain extent.

Some sociologists have specifically studied this issue, but wherever a parade has been held, the law and order will be improved to a certain extent after the parade is over.

According to the report of this scholar, the main reason for this situation is that during the demonstrations, the police will be quite weak, which will produce a very subtle psychological change.

In order to retaliate for their embarrassment and incompetence during the demonstrations, they will intensify their crackdown on various public security and criminal cases after the demonstrations.

There were indeed a lot of policemen on duty on the street these two days, and those dishonest people also hid themselves, waiting for the policemen's anger to dissipate before going out on the street again.

Seeing that the time for the meeting was coming to an end, Lynch had already started to pack his things. The core of the talk now was to wrangle and ask for favors, and he didn't care much about this.

However, some people should be interested in helping some small countries build basic industrial facilities just mentioned.

This is another big order, and the consortium's support for the federal government is fully reflected in the process of promoting the World Development Committee.

Even Congress, which is usually called "the most trouble-seeking", did not say a word of nonsense in the whole incident, let alone asked Mr. Truman or some personnel to go to Congress to explain the situation and make things difficult.

The capitalists of the Federation can see obvious benefits, and if it is beneficial to them, they will not block it, and whoever dares to block it is the common enemy of everyone.

Gefra used the wrong strategy from the very beginning. It is too childish for them to find those small countries to cause trouble for the Federation. It is better to just give the benefits to a certain big consortium.

Then let the consortium take action from the Congress, and there will be [-] or [-] hearings as soon as the hearing starts. Maybe this meeting can be delayed until next year.

It's all inexperienced!
Mr. Truman, who was seated at the head, saw that Lynch had packed his briefcase, and the corners of his mouth were raised slightly. He should have been angry, but he almost laughed out loud when he saw Lynch so lazy.

At this moment, two people came in, and one walked up to Lynch's side, bowed his head, and whispered in his ear.

Another person walked up to Mr. Truman and spoke in his ear, as if he was saying the same thing.

"Just now... there was an armed fight at the city station..."

Mr. Truman and Lynch looked at each other, and he frowned, announcing the end of the meeting in advance.

Then the two left quickly. Looking at the backs of the two leaving, many diplomats didn't know what happened and asked each other.

The two did not go back to Mr. Truman's office, but went directly to the presidential palace. The reason why this incident interrupted the progress of the talks was because it alarmed the president!

Mr. President is very upset now, and he is also a little uneasy, and more of a bad face.

When diplomatic missions from so many countries gathered in the Commonwealth, when something like this happened, the first thing he thought of was his face.

He couldn't even imagine what people would think of him. This might become a big scandal during his administration!
