Resource Tycoon Reborn
Chapter 682 Results of the general election
Sir Brunel was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter. After a while, he said: "I only knew that Fang's business vision was exceptionally good before, but today I found out that your eloquence is also the same! Yes, Fang is optimistic about the project.
It is indeed worthy of our careful consideration.”
"Thank you for your compliment, Sir." Fang Mingyuan smiled, "So, Sir, please seriously consider our proposal."
"Fang, please call me Charles, calling me Sir is a bit foreign." Sir Brunel said seriously, "I will seriously consider your and Philip's proposal again."
The atmosphere of the subsequent meeting became much more relaxed. Sir Brunel talked about "007", which will be released in the summer and is a collaboration between MGM Films and Hong Kong Kumho Film Group. This film is from MGM
After the holding company acquired MGM Film Company, the first "007" movie was launched, which received unanimous praise. In the North American film market alone, it earned more than 650 million U.S. dollars in box office, and the global box office was even higher.
It exceeded one billion U.S. dollars. It became the first film in the "007" series to enter the billion-dollar club, and the first film to be officially introduced to China. Although the film was produced by Hong Kong Kumho Film Group Company and Mi
It was filmed by Gaume Film Company, but the protagonist is a British agent after all, which can be regarded as a prestige for the British in the world, so the response of the British film market is also very good.
"By the way, Fang...how is the construction site of the newly built airport in your hometown going? It is said that it will be put into use in early 2010?" Sir Brunel asked, "By then, it will be
Look after us British Airways."
Fang Mingyuan knew that Sir Brunel was also a director of British Airways. British Airways is one of the largest airlines in the world and the largest airline in the UK. It has been established for more than 80 years.
It can be said to have a long history. There are many flights between British Airways and Hong Kong, but in the domestic mainland aviation market, British Airways is more embarrassed. Until now, British Airways has only served flights to two cities, Beijing and Shanghai.
There are 31 passenger flights and seven freighter flights per week, which is not a large number compared with other well-known airlines in the world.
"The progress is going smoothly so far. If there are no problems, we can guarantee that it will be put into use in early 2010." Fang Mingyuan nodded.
"Our government is negotiating with your government on the air transport industry, hoping to expand the number of cities and flights operated by British Airways in China. I am very optimistic about the economic development momentum of Qinxi Province. I hope that if you choose your hometown by then,
Qinxi Airport Group Company can take care of us." Sir Brunel smiled and said, "Of course, our British Airways will definitely pay back!" In the past few years, Fengyuan has cooperated with European, mainly German airlines.
The number of flights between the two companies has increased a lot, and many European airlines have seen business opportunities.
Of course, Fang Mingyuan would not refuse Sir Brunel's request. After the opening of Tongyi New Airport, in addition to greatly easing the tight capacity of Fengyuan International Airport, there will also be considerable demand for transportation capacity.
Major airlines have come to fill the gap. Moreover, Fang Mingyuan also intends to make Tongyi New Airport an important node airport for flights from western Asia to China. British Airways intends to land at Tongyi New Airport, which is of course a good thing.
The guests and hosts had a very pleasant conversation. At noon, under the arrangement of Sir Brunel, the group had lunch in a Western restaurant in the hotel, and agreed to meet again in the evening. Then they went their separate ways.
She got in the car and returned to the Welf family's residence in downtown London. As soon as Angelina got off the car, a subordinate handed her a newspaper. She glanced at it twice and made a soft sound.
"What's wrong?" Philip turned around and asked.
"The results of the U.S. presidential election are out. Clark Hussein Polk was elected as the 44th President of the United States with a clear advantage, and he is also the first president of African descent in the United States." Angelina said.
"John Sidney Jackson lost? Lost to Polk?" Philip exclaimed in surprise. Although there are many politicians of color in American politics, the position of president has always been
It has never fallen out of the hands of white people. Therefore, although Polk had a certain advantage before the final vote in the general election, Philip and many people in the upper class of Europe still believed that American society should not accept a man with
A president of black descent.
Fang Mingyuan grinned slightly without being noticed by others. On one side was the butterfly effect, on the other was the powerful force of historical correction. In the end, it was the force of historical correction that won. The United States still ushered in the first person in its history.
A president with black ancestry. However, this result is also good news for Fang Mingyuan. Because he knows that John Sidney Jackson is an out-and-out hawk. If he succeeds in taking office, the United States will wield military force.
The probability of a big stick will be higher, and his support for Japan will be greater and he will be more hostile to China. I just don’t know if John Sidney Jackson came to power and shot down his plane during the Vietnam War.
How would the Vietnamese who detained him for six years feel?
"Yes, Jackson lost to Polk. He will be sworn in at the White House on January 23 next year." Angelina cast her eyes on Fang Mingyuan, but she knew that from the beginning, Fang Mingyuan had made it clear
Expressing his optimism about Polk, this time undoubtedly proved his vision again.
"This is really unpleasant news!" Philip muttered and walked into the room. After running for a long time, he needed to take a rest.
"It seems that you were right again this time." Angelina took the newspaper in her hand, took Fang Mingyuan's arm, and chuckled.
"In fact, this is not difficult to judge, because Americans are tired of wars and tired of dead people. During George W. Bush's eight-year term, the U.S. military was deeply mired in war. Although it has gained a lot of benefits, most of these benefits
Americans cannot enjoy it, or have no obvious feeling. Therefore, the American people are very worried that if Jackson is elected again, the US military will not only be unable to get out of the quagmire, but may instead be involved in more military conflicts.
Go in. The big guys behind the United States are also very dissatisfied with the fact that the military industry big guys have made a lot of money in recent years, but it has affected their income. In addition, it is obvious that a global economic crisis may break out at any time.
At this time, continuing to invest too much money in the military is obviously something they are not willing to accept, so it is not surprising that Polk won and Jackson lost." Fang Mingyuan shrugged, "Of course.
, Don’t take the words of politicians too seriously. Once Polk comes to power, he may not immediately demand the withdrawal of US troops, nor may he stop wielding a military stick to stir up trouble in the world.”
Angelina smiled sweetly, leaned on Fang Mingyuan's shoulder and said softly: "Listening to what you said, Polk's victory seems to be normal. Am I stupid?"
"If that were the case, there wouldn't be many smart people in the world." Fang Mingyuan smiled awkwardly and said that in his previous life, the reasons for Polk's victory had been analyzed by the media like carpet bombing after the US presidential election.
And if he knows the results, it will be easy for him to infer the reasons. But before the election results come out, it is naturally difficult for outsiders to see clearly.
"Fang!" Phillip suddenly walked out again. Angelina felt that Fang Mingyuan's body tensed, and her hand holding Fang Mingyuan's arm immediately added a little more strength.
Fang Mingyuan glanced at Angelina helplessly, but Philip turned a blind eye and said to Fang Mingyuan: "By the way, I almost forgot, you said before that although you don't like Turkey very much, from the perspective of making money,
From a perspective, Turkey’s economic development should be good in the next few years, right?”
"Yes, I dare not say more. At least until 2012 or 2013, Turkey's economic development speed will be very fast in Europe." Fang Mingyuan replied.
"Hmm..." Philip said thoughtfully, "Could it be that this is because the Turkish government wants to change the currency again? How can changing the currency still have this effect?"
Turkey's economy has indeed been relatively impressive in the past few years. However, in 2001, Turkey fell into the most serious economic crisis in decades, with an inflation rate of over 70% and a currency shortage.
The Turkish lira has depreciated severely, with the exchange rate against the US dollar reaching as high as 16.5 million lira per US dollar, and more than 2 million people across the country are unemployed. This has also made the Turkish lira one of the largest denomination currencies in circulation in Turkey.
, billionaires with a net worth of tens of billions of lire can be said to be everywhere. And Turkey’s GDP calculated in lire is even more terrifying, exceeding 40 trillion lire!
The ultra-large denomination currency did not bring economic prosperity to Turkey, but instead caused a lot of chaos in currency transactions. So starting from January 1, 2005, Turkey announced the issuance of a new Turkish lira as its legal tender.
, and the ratio of the old and new currencies is one million to one. Since then, Turks have bid farewell to large-denomination currencies. Not long ago, the Turkish government once again announced that it will start from January 1, 2009.
Issuing and re-issuing a new currency, Turkish Lira, to replace the new Turkish Lira in circulation as its legal tender. (To be continued.)
