Chapter 840 The Final Deal

   "I didn't expect you to be in New York, which saved me a lot of trouble."

  Washington, DC, when Zhong Shi rushed to the White House, he heard Andrew Bryan say with a smile, "We meet again, Mr. Zhong."

"My pleasure!"

The unknown Zhong Shi was at a loss, and knew nothing about the purpose of being urgently called to the White House, but since the other party summoned him, he definitely had no reason not to come, so he immediately answered the same politely, and then asked, "I don't know why I came here this time?"

   "Don't be impatient, take a break first."

  Bringing Zhong Shi into a private conference room, Andrew Bryan asked someone to deliver coffee, and then he said unhurriedly, "I don't know what advice you have for the current international economic situation?"

   "I don't dare talk about high opinions!"

  Zhong Shi touched the cool paper coffee cup, pondered for a moment before slowly uttering a word, "It's not good."

"Oh?"

  Andrew Bryan sat up straight immediately, looked at Zhongshi with a piercing gaze, and asked loudly, "Why do you say that? Is this your own analysis or something you heard?"

   "Have both!"

Zhong Shi took a sip of his coffee and slowly explained, "The two poles of the world economy are the United States on the one hand and Europe on the other. Let's not talk about the role of emerging markets in driving the international economy for now. The problem with the United States is that After experiencing the stimulus of QE, the economic recovery has still not met expectations, and the signs of improvement have come to an abrupt halt in the past few months, and future monetary policy may need to be restarted, all of which will take time."

"Needless to say about Europe, the cloud of the debt crisis has been hanging over them, and the economic data has begun to show a significant decline in growth rate. For a period of time or even longer in the future, European data will not be very good. Of course, don't It is expected that they can stimulate the growth of the world economy. I even think that the ECB is very likely to start the QE policy and learn from the United States.”

"In terms of emerging markets, except for China, several other major economies are making slow progress in this wave of recovery. For some time in the future, it is very likely that the main growth of the world economy will shift to the Asian region. But if you only bet on In Asia, that's not realistic."

   "What you said is very reasonable, which is a great addition to our thinking."

After listening to Zhong Shi's explanation, Andrew Bryan digested it for a while, and then said, "Currently there are rumors in the market that the Fed will implement the QE plan. To be honest, we are also studying this matter. Although there is no conclusion yet, But some people are inclined to implement the quantitative easing policy again."

   "On the other hand is Europe. So far, although the economic growth rate in Europe has slowed down, it is still growing, which makes the president very dissatisfied."

   Having said that, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Zhong Shidao, "Is there any way to continue to let the debt crisis in Europe continue to ferment?"

   "General Election?"

  Zhong Shi was taken aback for a moment, and then subconsciously asked, "Is the reason why Mr. President is dissatisfied because of the general election coming next year?"

"good!"

Andrew Bryan nodded, "Before the issue of the debt ceiling, the Republican Party has obstructed in every possible way, trying to make the president lose points on this matter. For this reason, they also bribed the rating agencies, and they did not hesitate to kill a thousand enemies. Fortunately, we had an idea and directed the whole matter to the former president, which was able to resolve the crisis this time. However, in the next period of time, if the president does not If you can deliver a bright economic data answer sheet, next year's general election will still be difficult to deal with."

"Maybe you think the whole thing has nothing to do with you, but I want to tell you that if the new president takes office, in order to improve relations with Europe, it is very likely that you will be thrown out. This is not alarmist talk, but a real possibility. Facts. As it stands, we're on a ship and it's up to you to decide what to do."

  During the conversation, he kept staring at Jong-seok's face. When it came to the fact that the Republicans bought the rating agency, Andrew Bryan noticed that Zhong Shi's expression did not fluctuate at all, and the chill in his heart suddenly became a little bit worse.

   The bell stone knows nothing about it.

   "If this is the case, then we have to plan it out!"

Zhong Shi rubbed his chin and pondered for a moment, with a troubled expression on his face, "So far, the situation in Europe is temporarily stable, and it is impossible to start another large-scale chaos in the short term. "

   "Is there no other way?"

  Andrew Bryan would not let it go, and asked again, "It doesn't matter whether it is long-term or short-term, as long as it can divert the focus of public opinion, and hit the European economy by the way, I think this kind of thing should be very easy."

  Naturally, he was quite dissatisfied with Zhong Shi's answer, so he took another step closer and asked him to express his position now.

  Although he was very puzzled by the urgency of the other party, Zhong Shi didn't think about it. He patted his thigh lightly and began to think about what to do to meet the other party's request.

   "Yes!"

  After half a day, his eyes lit up, and he said tentatively, "Mr. Brian, you should know what happened in Greece recently, right?"

   "Greece? What's up?"

  Andrew Bryan asked subconsciously, but then he understood, and asked, "Is it a matter of exchanging new debts for old debts?"

"right!"

Zhong Shi nodded, "But the whole problem is more than that. The leaders of this country seem to have a problem with their brains, and they always want to challenge the whole world through some extreme or marginal methods. Although they have accepted Rescue, but always trying to resist certain policies in Europe, which makes all parties very dissatisfied. If you want to cause a sensation in the short term, I think it is the most appropriate to use this country."

   "How do you get them to do something stupid and make a splash?"

A smile appeared on Andrew Bryan's face, and he was very satisfied that Zhongshi came up with such a solution in such a short period of time, but then another question came to his mind, "Do you mean to use our power? But frankly, with the clout the U.S. government has out there, the ability to make them make stupid decisions is pretty slim.”

"And more importantly, if we intervene, the European side will regard this matter as the most direct provocation. In the last incident in Ireland, they have expressed serious dissatisfaction with us through official channels. So It is impossible for us to make a move this time, otherwise it will cause big trouble."

  After affirming Zhongshi's plan, Andrew Bryan also quickly denied the possibility of government intervention.

Zhong Shi had the urge to give the other party his **** for his behavior of wanting to make meritorious service but not to contribute, but he still endured it, and just said lightly, "This matter does not require the government to come forward. There just happens to be some information on that.”

   "Information, what information?"

  Andrew Bryan's eyes narrowed immediately, and it took him a while to return to normal. He asked without changing his expression, "Is it information about the Greek government, or is it some other information?"

   "It's about their prime minister!"

  Zhong Shi replied unhurriedly, "Their family has some corruption and illegal materials, including materials on money laundering in offshore financial centers, crimes, and election manipulation."

   "You actually have these?"

  Andrew Bryan couldn't help but twitched his face twice, quite surprised in his heart, "So, you have set your sights on today, so you collected this material in advance?"

"Do not!"

   Zhong Shi didn't expect that these materials would come in handy on occasions like today. He briefly explained what happened at the Atlantic Casino, and then he said, "Just in case, I found some information about their family, and I didn't expect it to be used in a situation like today. Unexpected."

  Back when Zhongshi was at the Atlantic Casino, a man once threatened him to lick his shoes, and it was later confirmed that he was a member of the Papandreou family. In order to prevent their retaliation, Zhong Shi entrusted Blackwater Company to conduct a comprehensive investigation of their family. After more than a year, he finally got the materials in this regard this year.

   "Since this is the case, then you choose a time to activate it!"

  Hearing the news, Andrew Bryan was very happy. He patted Zhong Shi on the shoulder happily and said, "Just choose a time to launch it. The president and I will be waiting for your good news."

  But to his surprise, Zhong Shi remained motionless, showing no intention of agreeing.

Slowly, the joy on Andrew Bryan's face disappeared. He sat down solemnly, stared at Zhongshi for a long time, and finally asked, "Tell me, do you want to exchange these things for what?"

  Originally, he believed that as long as it was a request from the government, Zhong Shi and others would implement it without hesitation. But after seeing Zhong Shi's attitude, he suddenly realized that the other party was already a guy with a different heart, so how could he be willing to obey what he and Washington said.

  As for Zhong Shi, the explanation is that the other party will use the information he has collected so hard, which is a bit unreasonable. You must know that this world is an exchange of equal value. If the other party wants to trade in this way, he will definitely not accept it.

   "About Italy and Spain, I want to say a little bit about my opinion!"

Zhong Shi's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a flat tone, "As far as I know, the European central government is very unwilling to see the debt crisis in these two countries. So at least in the short term, if there is any problem in Greece, That's just an itching of ringworm and scabies, and it won't shake the foundation of Europe. From this perspective, the information in my hand is actually very limited."

"However, if this thing is thrown out when the rumors in Spain, Italy and other countries are tight, the lethality caused by these things will be amplified hundreds or thousands of times, so that we can achieve the effect we want. But All this will take time, at least not in the short term."

"no!"

Andrew Bryan categorically denied it, but the next moment he slowed down his tone and said, "The campaign for the new presidential election will start in October, so this matter cannot be later than December, that is to say, it can only be Launch it within this year. Otherwise, it will be meaningless to launch it again.”

   "Is that so..."

  Zhong Shi frowned, pondered for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and agreed, but he also put forward a condition, "But this is the last thing I will do for the US government."

   "What? You want to quit?"

  At this time, Andrew Bryan's face was unsurprisingly surprised, and he said slowly after a while, "Is this the result of your deliberation? Do you know what it means to quit at this time?"

"I am certain."

  Zhong Shi looked at each other with clear and firm eyes, "I know what I'm doing. And I don't think the debt crisis in Europe will continue to ferment in the future. Since there is no chance, it's better for me to quit at the right time."

   "I need to discuss this matter with the president!"

   Until the end of the conversation, Andrew Bryan did not agree.
