Messed up.

All messed up.

At the time of signing the document, although the president had expected that he might be counterattacked by the Chinese side, his advisory team had also formulated a roundabout offensive response tactics, but he did not expect that the Chinese people actually shot so quickly and so direct!

Although they did not seem to cause any substantial losses to them, as they are in the ongoing antitrust investigations and patent cases where no verdict has yet been issued, the terrible thing is that these successive moves have directly given Wall Street a Remember the sap.

Although this was not a loss of practicality, it was enough for them to have a headache.

Of course, it wasn't this that really made him cry.

It was only now that the wise president suddenly discovered that the high-tech companies in China did not know when to begin, and their industrial penetration had reached such a terrifying level.

They just stunned outside, two national super projects with an investment of more than 10 billion US dollars instantly lay on the ground, or the kind that Ladu could not pull up ...

This is really scary!

Just then, the office door opened, and Chief of Staff Kevin walked in with a serious look.

"The California state government just called and local environmental organizations and other non-governmental organizations are organizing tours. They demand that the people of California need clean and cheap energy ... If the core of China cannot be sent to the West Coast this year, they hope We can think of a way. "

"Think of a fart!"

The right fist was hammered **** the table, and this feeling of inability to fight back filled the president's heart with grief and anger.

After taking a deep breath, he finally calmed down, and after thinking for a long time, he said in a mild tone.

"Perhaps we should restart the national ignition ... maybe controlled fusion is not as difficult as we think."

Restart the national ignition ...

There was a bitter expression on Kevin's face.

He believes that the President himself knows how impractical the plan is, otherwise he would not use two uncertain beginnings in one sentence. This not only means that they need to mobilize thousands of scholars to enter the project, but also have to pay tens of billions of dollars for this, which is equivalent to opening up a third battlefield on the basis of the original two super projects.

Even in the United States, it is impossible to maintain three super projects at the same time, and the huge financial pressure will directly bankrupt the federal government.

Moreover, even if they restart the national ignition ...

Kevin: "... What about SG-1 superconducting materials? Without SG-1 superconducting materials, we cannot complete the magnets needed to constrain the plasma, unless we can find a way to further optimize the plasma turbulence control scheme. I consulted the Academy of Sciences This is what they introduced to us. What we lack is not just the core. Without the supply of SG-1 materials, we can do nothing. "

President: "Chip! Restrict chip exports to the West Pacific! I'll see who sticks first."

Kevin held his breath.

"Mr."

The president glared at him.

"what happened?"

Kevin: "... we can do this at any time, but are you sure you want to do this?"

The question from the chief of staff was a question of persuasion or confirmation, just as the same cold water splashed up, so that the president calmed down immediately.

"... I think about it again."

chip……

This is indeed a good idea.

Chinese people import more chips each year than oil.

However, killing an enemy can cost you 800, not to mention the chip. In addition to the US supplier, there are suppliers from other countries to choose from.

Although they can also pull their allies to implement a chip embargo on some Chinese companies through means such as entity lists, and stop them from doing what is going on by making them feel pain.

but……

Facing the huge temptation of controlled fusion, are European allies so reliable?

Today's Europe is like a wealthy old man with a stalemate. He can squander for decades by relying on retirement pensions when he is young. From time to time, he has to face the extortion of the evil neighbor who controls the natural gas pipeline in the east. Besides, there is nothing that can help them regain their strength, even God can't.

At present, Hua Guo has not issued a formal document, and once he presses this button, the conflict really escalates to the point where he can't go back ...

Push all the chips onto the table.

Do you really have a 50% chance of winning?

Thinking of this, the president's heart can not help but give birth to a touch of sadness.

This was not the case a decade ago.

No, even just two years back, when his last term was still in office, things were much better than now.

At least at that time, they had enough means to coerce the Chinese nation to compromise, and they also had enough technical confidence to compete with the Chinese nation. Their international influence was large enough to kick those pesky people out of the ITER organization. Doing whatever you want is not an exaggeration.

Where, like now, even a company that hasn't gone public yet can't ...

Looking at the swinging president, Kevin was silent for a moment, reminding him.

"Sir, we have done enough. From the perspective of long-term interests, it is definitely not the right time to suppress high-tech enterprises in China. Our super project also needs their support, at least in the fusion power plant in California. Until now, until the gate of deep space can operate stably, we should exercise restraint. We have to admit that our super engineering is a soft underbelly. "

"What's more, new energy vehicles are not our core interest. Our demand for new energy vehicles is not as urgent as that of China. Tesla's market value and the California economy are not worth mentioning. Even if we let Musk What about sacrifice? "

Besides, you have moved your job opportunities to Shanghai.

Although earning Chinese people's money is excusable, for those workers who are still working diligently in North America, I ask you to sacrifice your own interests.

"... What about Exxon Mobil?" Shen, the president with his fingers crossed, leaning his forehead on his arm, continued. "Wall Street is not easy to mess with, but these oil giants are not easy to mess with."

He never took Tesla's interests to heart.

The reason why I started with Xingkong Technology was that the name of this company was already on his memo, and there was an excuse not to use it for nothing ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ Moreover, the SH standard touched the most sensitive G point in the United States.

But ExxonMobil is not the same. This type of giant is not only simple for them to provide campaign funds, but also directly or indirectly affect a large number of jobs.

To put it plainly, to upset these people, they have the means to revenge on the employment rate at any time.

And the employment rate thing, but more than all other paper data, can affect the votes ...

"They just robbed one in the fire. Of course, it doesn't matter if they can't get it. And ExxonMobil's CEO also needs to show his board that he is not a waste. The waste is ..."

Noting that the president was staring at himself, Kevin embarrassedly gestured with his index finger for a while, and then eagerly came up with the safest answer, "Of course the junk is the judge."

The president Shen Sheng said, "But it's not too shameless that we just give in."

"The steps are easy to find," relieved, with a smile on Kevin's face and raising his index finger to continue. "The investigation initiated by the Ministry of Commerce should be cancelled by our International Trade Commission. This is not to the evil forces The threat of compromise is based on the correction of our own laws ... there is a word that says, yes, the rules! "

"As for the Ministry of Justice, it is enough to make the chain of evidence they submit" incomplete. "Of course, if ExxonMobil is interested, it knows that nothing can be done, and if it is not possible, it will be easier for us to apply for withdrawal of the lawsuit. . "

"Rules ..." The word chewed repeatedly in his mouth, the president's eyes lightened slightly, he looked up at the chief of staff, and said solemnly, "Go and contact the people at ITC."

"It's really not the right time for China's high-tech companies to do it. It's up to you to do it!"
