Reborn Capital Madman

Chapter 0131 Top social occasions

There is no need to elaborate on the specifications of the White House New Year banquet. Gao Xian just needs to make sure that his group is dressed and talks generously and appropriately. In this top social occasion, it is enough not to slander the Chinese.

In fact, in such an environment, Yi Huirong and Wu Zhibing's performance was much like Gao Xian, and they integrated into the circle of noble ladies and socialites at the banquet without any effort.

You can understand the truth after thinking about it a little. As an ordinary person, Gao Xian was just a project manager with good results in his workplace. After coming to this era, although his social status rose very quickly,

It still requires a gradual learning and adaptation process, which cannot compare to the family background of Yi Huirong that she has cultivated since childhood.

However, Gao Xian was not idle either, and he soon discovered the target person - US Minister of Commerce Morris Stans.

There is just one problem. There is a circle everywhere. Morris Stans has been whispering with the other two officials. It is difficult to pass the high strings rashly, wasting the precious opportunity for the first impression.

While Gao Xian was thinking secretly, a concierge officer walked over and said, "Gao, please prepare. Mr. President will arrive soon. You will be temporarily arranged to the reception sequence."

"Okay." Gao Xian, who was slightly stunned, quickly checked his clothes quietly to avoid any mistakes.

After a while, in the eyes of everyone, American President Nixon and American First Lady Pat walked out together.

Gao Xian, who was temporarily arranged to the forefront, was soon able to shake hands with the US president.

Nixon said: "Gao, thank you very much for saving the precious lives of two American soldiers."

“生命宝贵,这也是我的荣幸.”高弦镇定自若地说道:“我知道,总统先生正以一种更伟大的方式——和平,来挽救更多的生命.”

"You are practicing the famous saying at the inauguration ceremony. The greatest honor that history can give is the title of peacemaker."

Nixon retracted his steps towards the next guest, the smile on his face was less professional, and he looked carefully at Gao Qian, who was shaking hands with the first lady of the United States, Pat.

Almost every American president's path to success cannot be separated from the assistance of his wife. Pat is also an excellent virtuous assistant. Since her husband took office, he has visited more than half of the fifty states in the United States, and only served for the term.

的第一年,便与二十五万人握过手,堪称最勤勉的米国第一夫人.

于是,高弦针对这一点,恭维道:“您的平易近人,让我如沐春风.”

瞥了一眼没有继续往前走的丈夫,帕特对高弦笑道:“想不到,高这么年轻有为.”

"I will take your praise as encouragement." Gao Xian, who followed this sentence calmly, saw Pat go to shake hands with Yi Huirong and Wu Zhibing, and said to Nixon who was in the same place: "Mr. President, I can have you

Take a photo?"

"Of course." Nixon made a gesture to the photographer.

In this way, American President Nixon and American First Lady Pat stayed at Gao Xian for more than a minute, and the glasses that broke the others' glasses.

Gao Xian, who was also somewhat surprised, roughly guessed some of the reasons.

米国总统也是活生生的人,恭维则是一门博大精深的学问,而自己恰好搔到了尼克松的痒处.

As we all know, American presidents will make one mistake, that is, the promises during the campaign may not be fulfilled after being elected.

Nixon is no exception. He promised to end the Vietnam War in the campaign, but after taking office, the bombing not only did not stop, but also escalated, which formed a sharp contrast.

Although this military operation may have been planned by the ex, the current one has to bear the blame.

Time magazine published an article on this, saying that Nixon had a "trust gap" on this issue.

Because when Nixon took office, about 300 US soldiers were killed in the Vietnam battlefield every week, there were voices in the United States that demanded immediate withdrawal.

Under increasing pressure on protests, Nixon came up with a way to localize the Vietnam War, that is, to let the US troops withdraw from the frontal battlefield and replace it, so that the South Vietnamese can take over it themselves.

According to this idea, Nixon did indeed follow the requirements of the American people and was following the so-called "road to peace".

In addition, at this critical turning point in time, Nixon may be secretly interested in Chinese elements, including Chinese.

高弦才懒得理会当中的猫腻,他只知道,自己忽悠到了一张和世界头号资本主义强国元首的合影.

As long as the "Watergate Incident" does not break out, this capital can be used to fool it.

Afterwards, Nixon made a brief speech with a chirp face.

Gao Xian noticed that Nixon swore that 1971 would be a good year.

“政客果然擅长夸夸其谈.”高弦不禁暗自好笑,“谁要相信这句话,等到了年底,发现布雷顿森林体系名存实亡后,哭都没地方哭去.”

You should know that after the rise of the United States and Germany at the end of the last century, catching up with old capitalist powers such as Britain and France, the United States' international trade has been a surplus since 1893; but now, this

The surplus is only one billion dollars, and it may turn into a negative number in a blink of an eye...

It is in this case that even the United States will cut off such "small shrimps" when importing Asian textiles.

But at this stage, the main international trade pressure in the United States comes from Europe, where the economy is revived, especially West Germany, where the manufacturing industry is simply cheating.

Although the liquidity of international capital is far less free than ten years later under the Bretton Woods system, there are still a lot of capital that is attracted to take the opportunity to hype.

The West German Central Bank has to continue to buy the US dollar in order to maintain the fixed exchange rate of its own currency stipulated by the Bretton Woods system, which is estimated to be only one step away from being frustrated.

Regarding the current trend of the United States' deficit, Gao Xian is because of insufficient capital and lack of risk resistance. In addition, the Hong Kong government is still implementing strict foreign exchange controls, so he did not travel thousands of miles to Europe to ride on the fun.

After Nixon finished fooling him, Yi Huirong asked Gao Xian in a low voice, "Have you touched Morris Stans?"

Gao Xian shook his head, "I haven't found a suitable opportunity yet."

"We have already met the wife of the Minister of Commerce." Yi Huirong smiled slightly and continued to reveal the news: "And the Ms. Chen Xiangmei you mentioned."

Gao Xian raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that he really brought the right assistant this time.

“下一步,你打算怎么做?”易慧蓉再次问道.

Gao Xian replied without hesitation, "Then let's contact Chen Xiangmei. After all, what she does is Zhengzhi lobbying."

When he saw Gao Xian who was introduced, Chen Xiangmei smiled and said, "I noticed that the President and Mr. Gao had a very pleasant conversation just now."

"Ms. Chen is the popular person in the White House." Gao Xian praised her and said straight to the point: "So, please ask Ms. Chen to do a favor."

听完高弦的来意后,陈香梅没有拒绝送上门来的生意,很爽快地说道:“我和斯坦斯夫妇熟识,可以请他们到我家吃饭.”

反正香江棉纺业同业公会能报销,高弦才不会心疼无法避免的开支,于是他同样爽快地表示:“那我就要到陈女士府上叨扰一番了.”

...

陈香梅在花生炖的住处,是水门大厦里的一间高级公寓.

没错,这个水门大厦,就是赫赫有名的“水门事件”的案发地.

事实上,水门大厦是一个综合建筑群,可用作公寓,酒店,办公室等等用途.

被视为花生炖最理想生活空间之一的水门大厦,相当于一座城中之城,健身俱乐部,餐厅,商场,医疗和牙科诊所,杂货店,药店,邮局等等,一应俱全.

与此同时,水门大厦的建筑设计也极尽奢华,拥有可发出如瀑布般声音的喷泉群,园景天台露台,游泳池,二万八千平方米的公园,以及大量盆裁等景观.

The curved design of the Watergate Building also allows apartment residents to enjoy the scenery of the Potomac River.

Coupled with the geographical advantage of just eight blocks from the White House, Watergate Building has attracted many American congressmen and executive departments to appoint officials to live. The Communist Party alone has three cabinet members, two senators, and Nixon's

Director of the Protocol and more than a dozen White House aides.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Watergate Building at this time is a paradise for celebrities and politicians.

陈香梅能在这里,和其他HSD精英,过着一样的奢侈生活,足见她混得如何不错了.

有这样一位八面玲珑的正治说客居中斡旋,高弦如愿在私下场合,见到了米国商务部长莫里斯·斯坦斯.

Morris Stans, who had long been accustomed to such activities, told Gao Xian very directly, "After the public holiday at the beginning of the year, the Ministry of Commerce will officially announce the implementation of a quota system for the export of Asian textiles in the United States."

Gao Xian asked: "How many quotas will major textile export economies like Xiangjiang and South Korea get?"

Morris looked at his wife Catherine, who nodded slightly, and then slowly said: "According to the existing statistics, Hong Kong should get a quota of 60%, and South Korea should get a quota of 20%.

quota of five; but the actual situation cannot be implemented in this way. After all, South Korea is an ally of the United States, and the Ministry of Commerce has to consider some corrective factors."

Gao Xian raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled, "How much quota will Xiangjiang get in the end?"

Morris made a gesture, "No more than fifty percent at most."

Although Gao Xian had a regret on his face, he was already quite satisfied. To be honest, Xiangjiang is a colony with no real status after all. He should be content to have such a big cake to eat!

...

After inquiring about information from Morris, Gao Xian seized the time and sent two telegrams to Xiangjiang.

One is to tell the Xiangjiang Cotton Textile Industry Association the result after the boots landed; the other is to tell Gao Yi to build a position for the stocks in the Xiangjiang Textile Industry sector.

...

Bow and thank Yangyang, Yi Qi gave him crazy rewards!!
