life in the sky

At this time, Peng Junming's eyes on Mu Guoxing changed, and he admired Mu Guoxing's advanced strategic vision and great talent even more.It's easy to say "plan for a rainy day", but how many people can actually do it?As long as Huaxia becomes stronger and powerful enough, it will not worry about the disobedience of the European Union, let alone their refusal to lease the port.As long as China has a foothold in the Balkan Peninsula, our navy will have a reliable base in the future. If it wants to spread across the four oceans, it will be much easier, and the maritime trade of China will be safer.

Peng Junming's analysis and judgment this time is very correct. This is also the fundamental purpose of Mu Guoxing. According to the current development momentum in China, what will China be like in ten or twenty years?Now that the EU does not agree to lease the port, it doesn't matter. As long as they are given a vaccination in advance, when China is strong enough, I am afraid they will not be able to stop it.

In the small restaurant of Yi Le Hall, Mu Guoxing and Liu Xiangdong were sitting. They hadn't seen each other for a long time. Liu Xiangdong was still a little nervous when he saw Mu Guoxing.To be honest, Liu Xiangdong had no idea about Mu Guoxing calling him to Beijing this time.Before coming, Liu Xiangdong and Dou Yangyi analyzed for a long time, but there was no result, but anyway, the summoning of the old leader should not be a bad thing.

The two chatted while eating, but in fact, Liu Xiangdong was mainly reporting on work.Mu Guoxing listened very carefully, and even interrupted to ask a few questions at critical moments, which showed that Mu Guoxing was still very concerned about the work of Guangnan Province.

At the end of the report, Liu Xiangdong suddenly said: "Sir, the entrepreneurs in Anjiang have achieved great success in investing in Guangnan in the past few years, and have also made great contributions to the local economic development in Guangnan. A few days ago, I I heard from the comrades of the An Giang Entrepreneurs Association that they are preparing to organize and enter the overseas market.”

Mu Guoxing nodded: "Entrepreneurs in Anjiang are very discerning. Now that the renminbi is steadily appreciating as planned, and the dollar exchange rate is constantly falling, it is a good opportunity for them to enter the overseas market at this time. It turns out that it takes 6 yuan to exchange [-] US dollars. Now only [-] yuan is needed. People are more valuable now, and entrepreneurs are of course willing to go out. It seems that our entrepreneurs are not unwilling to go out. The main reason is that we have some problems in terms of policies. If several preferential policies are introduced in this regard, I am afraid that you will be responsible for these matters in the future."

Liu Xiangdong, who was not mentally prepared in this regard, had a vague feeling that something was going on at this time, but now that the old leader hadn't said anything, he couldn't ask.

"I have suggested to the central government that you should be the first deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission. This matter has been approved by the Standing Committee. It will be discussed at the next Politburo meeting. It is estimated that the problem is not too big. "

Although they are all senior cadres, Liu Xiangdong still felt his heart beating wildly when he heard this sentence. He knew what kind of unit the Development and Reform Commission was, and he also knew how much power the first deputy director of the Development and Reform Commission had.

First of all, in terms of rank, the first deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission is at the ministerial level, which means that Liu Xiangdong has been promoted to another level.Secondly, the National Development and Reform Commission is known as the world's largest government office, and its power is unimaginable to ordinary people.The most important thing is that Mu Guoxing personally nominated Liu Xiangdong as the first deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, which means that Liu Xiangdong has already gained the absolute trust of Mu Guoxing, otherwise Mu Guoxing would not be able to hand over such an important position to him. For Liu Xiangdong.

"The work of the Development and Reform Commission is very important, and it is carried out directly under the leadership of the State Council. Recently, the Development and Reform Commission has encountered some problems in the management of import and export trade and price control. I hope that after you arrive at the Development and Reform Commission, you will quickly put this passive To turn the situation around, in short, we must remember one sentence: keep up with the pace of the central government, and truly put the interests of the country and the people first, as long as you can do this, the central government will support you."

"Thank you to the chief for trusting me. I will definitely do my job well in my new job. Everything will be in the interests of the country and the people, and I will never disappoint the chief's expectations of me."

Mu Guoxing smiled with satisfaction. Although Liu Xiangdong said some official words, Mu Guoxing also knew that these were his psychological words.He also absolutely believes that Liu Xiangdong is able to resolutely implement the central government's Founder's policy, and also has the ability to make the work of the Development and Reform Commission better.

Through this incident, it proved that Mu Guoxing had indeed taken precautions, and was planning in advance like his grandfather, Mr. Mu.The current director of the Development and Reform Commission, Chu Xiding, can only work for one term at most according to his age, and he will retire at the next National Party Congress. Mentioned the director's position.

Now what Mu Guoxing is considering is to properly mention Huang Guoqiang and let him be the last deputy director.Although Huang Guoqiang hadn't made any great achievements in his work in the past few years, he was very familiar with the work of the Development and Reform Commission. With these two people in charge of the Development and Reform Commission, Mu Guoxing could be completely at ease.

Text 560 Chapter [-] Hot Potato

The United States, known as the world's most powerful country, has been the focus of governments around the world for many years. ) The U.S. Constitution stipulates that citizens enjoy full freedom of speech and publishing rights, and the degree of openness of speech is unimaginable in other countries.

Some people say that in the United States, you can talk about politics, scold the president, and even go to the opposite side of the White House to demonstrate. It is precisely because of the high degree of freedom of speech that some news media controlled by large American conglomerates dare to criticize the actions of the US government. Comment on what you do.

Of course, this so-called freedom is also conditional. For example, if you scold the president, you can only scold in private. If someone close to the president finds out, you will definitely be thrown in prison for defamation.

On the surface, the American news media is quite free in speech, but in fact it is quite strictly controlled. This is because the President of the United States represents the interests of large consortiums, and the news media is also controlled by large consortia. Criticism is fine, but it is absolutely not allowed if it goes too far.

It is precisely for these reasons that news media in many countries have journalists stationed in the United States. These people are confused by the apparent freedom of speech in the United States. Under the dominance of American media public opinion, they also consciously or unconsciously act as advocates for the US government. To promote the superiority of the American system makes people feel that the moon of the United States is also rounder than that of other countries.

During this period of time, the mainstream news media in the United States also had to admit that the U.S. government made a big mistake, or that there was something wrong with the U.S. political system.The reason is very simple, it is because the US government adopted inappropriate sanctions against the Huaxia government at an inappropriate time, and in the face of the inappropriate countermeasures of the Huaxia government, it adopted a further inappropriate escalation.This series of inappropriateness only touches on the superficial phenomenon of the problem, but they still hold a positive attitude towards the mainstream of American politics.

Under the intensive manipulation of the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, or under the instigation of a large U.S. consortium, President Bowman was finally removed from office. Now the U.S. economy is in a mess, and its relationship with China is at a freezing point. Naturally, a scapegoat was to be found, and Bowman was also fortunate to become the only president in American history who was deposed from office.

According to the Constitution, Vice President Ofergues took over the post of President. At this time, the date of the US election is approaching, and Ofergues is also very clear that his president is also short-lived. Now the date of the election is approaching, and it will take less than a few months As soon as the new president takes office, Ophegus will get out of the White House in disgrace.Bowman made very serious mistakes during his administration, and he, the vice president, should also bear some responsibilities, but in any case, Ophegus finally showed a small face in American history, and passed the president's Addiction, but this addiction is really not very easy.

Huaxia announced the sale of U.S. debt twice in a row, which caught the U.S. government by surprise.If the U.S. government got away with it for the first time, it was because the amount Huaxia announced to sell U.S. debt was not too large, only a mere 3000 billion.Coupled with the fact that Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, the three big bosses, provided a large sum of money to the United States in a timely manner, the Bowman government was spared.Then the second time China announced the sale of more than 4000 billion U.S. debt, the U.S. government could no longer bear it, and the downfall of the Bowman administration was also expected by everyone.

More than 4000 billion U.S. debts are pressing on the United States like a mountain. No country in the world is willing to buy more U.S. debts if they want to issue more U.S. debts. They want to inject water through the U.S. dollar, but they are worried about the entire social economy of the United States. More serious damage may even shake the foundation of the U.S. economy. It is precisely because of these reasons that the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives made a technical default on U.S. debt and issued a limited amount of U.S. debt after more than ten days of quarrels. Painful decisions to keep the state machinery running.

But the consequences of this are also very serious. Standard & Poor's has drastically lowered the credit standards of U.S. debt, so that U.S. debt has become a stinky shit that everyone can't avoid. It can be distributed normally, but there is no money to distribute medical insurance, education and military expenses, let alone scientific research funds.

Not only that, the U.S. economy has suffered a severe blow, the stock market has plummeted, a large number of companies have closed down, and the number of unemployed has reached a shocking 30.00%.In this way, the people will have even less money to consume, which will make the US economy even worse.

Some economists said sadly: This economic crisis is more serious than the Great Depression that occurred in the United States at the beginning of the last century. If the U.S. economy is to emerge from this Great Depression, it will take at least ten years. It may even decline from now on, and the United States will inevitably be reduced to a second-rate country.

Under such circumstances, instead of finding the cause of the problem from themselves, the American news media unanimously pointed their finger at China. They believed that it was precisely because the Chinese government stopped buying U.S. debt that the U.S. government’s criticism of China The measures of sanctions were taken, and it was precisely because the Huaxia government refused to bow its head that the dispute gradually escalated.If the Chinese government could continue to buy U.S. debt, the U.S. would not end up in the same situation it is today.

Ophegus is now facing a dilemma again. He knows that the debt he owes will one day be repaid. The technical default of the U.S. debt does not mean a permanent default. If he wants to pay off foreign debts and revive the U.S. The only thing to do is to cut government spending, increase employment, and develop the economy.But these measures are easier said than done.

First of all, the U.S. government has relied on borrowing for a living over the years, and is used to living a comfortable life. How easy is it to bend over to make money?Besides, revitalizing the economy also requires a large amount of start-up capital. Now no country is willing to lend them money, and the exchange rate of the US dollar is also falling sharply. Where can the US government find money?Although there are still a large amount of U.S. dollar cash in the hands of large American consortiums, they are unwilling to lend to the U.S. government at this time. The U.S. government has no money in its hands, so how can it rely on to revive the economy?

Ophegus, who has been sitting in the Oval Office for ten days, is helpless to see the black demonstrators gathering in front of the White House every day.He has now completely lost hope in the U.S. economy, and the excitement of just sitting in the Oval Office has completely disappeared.At this time, he is looking forward to the coming of the US general election, and the new president will move into the White House as soon as possible, so that this hot potato can be thrown out as soon as possible.

According to the appointment, Daniel, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, walked into the office of Ophegus. Seeing the dejected look of Ophegus, Daniel knew that Ophegus and his staff have not yet figured out how to get through the difficulties. way.

"Mr. Ophegus, first of all I want to congratulate you on entering the White House and becoming the President of the United States."

"Mr. Daniel, please stop joking with me. Look at the crowds of demonstrators opposite the White House, and look at the bad news reported by the news media every day. Do you think I, the transitional president, deserves congratulations? I already think After that, I may be another scapegoat after Mr. Bowman."

Daniel smiled: "Mr. Ophegus, I don't think you will become another scapegoat, but you may become an American hero."

Ophegus' eyes lit up, he stood up with a bang, and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Daniel, has the Fed agreed to continue buying U.S. bonds?"

Daniel shook his head: "Mr. Ophegus, it is simply impossible for the Fed to continue to inject water into the dollar. The consequences will be more serious than a technical default on U.S. debt. If we adopt this method, what will be shaken will be The foundation of the U.S. economy, once the foundation is lost, the U.S. will be even more hopeless."

Ophegus sat down on the sofa in disappointment, "Since Mr. Daniel didn't bring me money, how do you ask me to deal with the current difficult situation, and how can I become an American hero?"

Daniel smiled and said: "Mr. Ophegus, the two of us have been old friends for many years. Having no money does not mean that there is no way. My team has not been idle recently, and we have come up with a solution to the problem. I wonder if Mr. President is interested in listening to it!"

Now there are 51 flowers short of adding more chapters.

Text 560 Five Chapters American Heroes

Hearing that Daniel changed his name to Mr. President, Ophegus realized that it was time to talk about business. He knew Daniel's energy. As one of the most famous economists in the United States, he was very good at economics.It turned out that when Daniel was the CEO of a large consortium, he used his rich knowledge of economic theory to bring a consortium that was on the verge of bankruptcy out of the predicament. Because of his ability to bring the dead back to life, Daniel was known as the golden finger in the economic circle.

"Mr. Daniel, I would be very happy to hear what good ways you have come up with to bring America back to life."

Daniel smiled and said, "Mr. President, where do you think the government should start if the U.S. economy is to get out of the predicament?"

"It is well known that if we want the U.S. economy to come back to life, we must first have a lot of U.S. dollar cash in our hands. As long as we have enough financial support, we can boost people's confidence and stabilize the interest rate of U.S. debt. Then we will You can move on and do other things.”

"Mr. President, this method is not wrong under normal circumstances, but it is a bit inappropriate to do so in a special period. In the final analysis, the President still pins his hopes on money. Now I can Let me tell you clearly that it is absolutely impossible for the Federal Reserve to continue to inject water into the US dollar. Now the question is back to the original point, which is how to raise such a large amount of money to stabilize the interest rate of US debt, which is especially important important."

Ophegus is a little puzzled. Since the Fed refuses to inject water into the dollar, where does it raise such a large amount of funds?According to the statistics of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, in the treasury market, foreign governments alone have sold [-] trillion bonds, which does not include those held by the American people. The debt must be repaid first. The question is where will the money come from?

"Mr. Daniel, I don't understand what you mean? If you want to stabilize the interest rate of U.S. debt and boost the confidence of countries in the world in the U.S. economy, you must take out money to pay off old debts, so that we can issue new ones." The problem is that the Federal Reserve is unwilling to pay, so where can the US government find such a large amount of money?"

"Mr. President, this is indeed a very serious problem, and it is also a fact. My team has also carefully analyzed the reasons for the formation of US debt and its general purpose. In the past ten years, especially since the financial crisis, the US economy has been stagnant It is not moving forward, but there are more and more places to spend money. The burden on the US government is very heavy. In addition to paying medical insurance, education expenses, and scientific research investment, it also has to pay the salaries of civil servants and soldiers, and maintain huge military expenditures. The use of the money is not wrong or right, and it is also needed according to the current national policy of the United States. Now I would like to ask you to answer my question. In order to repay the debt, in addition to boosting the US economy, it is necessary to significantly reduce government spending. From the current point of view, it is obviously impossible to boost the economy in a short period of time, so the only way left is to cut spending. The question now is, how does the US government plan to cut spending?"

Ofergues is really not good at answering this question. He does not have the guts to cut universal health insurance. Once he does, he, the transitional president, will be kicked out of the White House just like his predecessor.Take this time as an example. The U.S. government only announced a three-month delay in paying medical insurance fees. Now there are rallies and protests all over the country. If this benefit is permanently cancelled, it will be fine.

Eliminate educational expenses?This doesn't work either!Education is the foundation of a country, and the investment in education is related to the country's long-term plan. It is precisely because of its strong scientific and technological strength that the United States has been able to maintain a rapid development speed for decades. Once it does so, it will also cause wave of public protests.

Now only the salaries of civil servants and soldiers and huge military expenditures are left. The United States has a huge contingent of civil servants, more than 100 million soldiers, overseas military bases every year, and the war on terrorism for years is also a huge expenditure. We can only think of a way from this aspect.

The problem now is that some civil servants can be cut, but if the cost of the army and overseas garrison bases is cut, it will inevitably arouse strong opposition from the military.Now that the United States is in a mess economically, some of its former allies don’t listen to the greetings. If it cuts down on the military and greatly reduces military spending on overseas troops, without the support of a strong military, how will the United States maintain its hegemony in the world? ?This involves one of the most important national policies.

Daniel looked at Ophegus with a smile. He wanted to give the transitional president some time to think. He believed that Ophegus would be able to figure it out if he wanted to make a difference.

After about ten minutes, Ophegus said: "Mr. Daniel, the issue of substantially reducing the government's development is something that every US government has wanted to do. Why didn't they do it? You must be very clear For some of these reasons, I am only a transitional president now, and these things should be left to the new president to consider."

Daniel looked at Orpheus with slightly disappointed eyes. To be honest, Daniel came to lobby Orpheus this time, in addition to finding a way out for the United States, he also had a little personal selfishness, that is, to lobby Ofegrez is running for the next president of the United States.If the old friend becomes the president of the United States, everything will be much easier in the future, and Daniel, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, will be more stable.

Although Ophegus must be nominated by the Democratic Party if he wants to run for the President of the United States, as long as Ophegus can turn the tide and save the American economy during this period of time, it is not easy to get the nomination thing?

"Mr. Ophegus, don't you think about running for the next President of the United States? There is still time. If you have this intention, I will help you."
