    "You really don't want to consider my opinion. If you think about it carefully, something is really wrong with this matter. It went too smoothly!" Tokyo, Japan.  The romance time travel book is updated for the first time. You only come to the press hall of the Allied Forces Headquarters. Facing hundreds of reporters from all over the world, Kong Xiangxi and Wegner each took a pen and signed themselves on the document in front of them.  name.  The document being signed is the sales agreement regarding Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. As soon as the signing ceremony is completed, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries will become an enterprise under the Taiwan National Government.  This is definitely a huge progress and victory for the National Government, which has always lacked industry, especially for the National Government, which has been retreated to Taiwan Island.  Because as Japan's most important military supplier, once Mitsubishi Heavy Industries resumes operations, it will provide immeasurable weapons and equipment for hundreds of thousands or even millions of troops in Taiwan. It will also play an extremely important role in Chiang Kai-shek's plan to counterattack the mainland.  Supportive role.  "Once Mitsubishi Heavy Industries is in your hands, coupled with your equity in the Western Australia iron ore, Taiwan's dependence on US military industrial enterprises will be greatly reduced in the future, and its dependence on the United States will also be greatly reduced."  Seeing Kong Xiangxi confident and even a little proud in the audience, Lin Zixuan only felt worried, "Those politicians in the United States are representatives of the interests of major financial groups, as well as those arms dealers in the United States."  They are not good birds. Since they know that such a result is not good for them, why would they allow you to do this? You must know that those are the masters who can eat people without spitting out their bones. Since they are willing to give up such a huge benefit to you,  It proves that they have already dug a hole for you to jump into, but you are still willing to jump into it. Isn¡¯t this looking for death? " "I said you are not very young! Why are you so thoughtful?  There are no good people in your heart, right? We are all stupid in your heart! Can you please stop thinking about things in the worst possible way?" The Taiwan delegation gave Lin Zixuan a very high status,  A non-government official sat directly under Gui Yongqing, the third person in the delegation.  However, after hearing his words, Gui Yongqing, who was immersed in the joy of the successful acquisition of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, was very dissatisfied, "I tell you why the Americans are willing to do this. They also hope that we can be stronger. In this way,  If we come, we can put more pressure on GD and help them share the pressure brought by GD. Besides, what about Mitsubishi Heavy Industries? Can we surpass the United States with this Mitsubishi Heavy Industries?  Can we get rid of the United States? You must know that the United States is the country with the largest industrial strength in the world. And now the Americans have removed Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' shipbuilding and aircraft manufacturing from the agreement?  It's not a continent, it has no strategic depth, it's just a small island. Do you think an island with no strategic depth can stop the US Navy and Air Force? So as long as they have the advantage of the Navy and Air Force, the Americans will always take the strategic initiative.  What are you afraid of? " "Of course I know this, but I still feel something is wrong," Lin Zixuan said, "In fact, I warned you as early as the Presidential Palace, but you didn't listen, and now it's like this?  Is there anyone in this world who can deceive someone who hasn't been born yet?" He nodded to Kong Xiang on the stage and said, "I think you are in a trance because of the banks you acquired, are you tired?"  "It's possible! But what's wrong with this agreement?" Lin Zixuan could only sigh helplessly.  He has been very busy recently. Ever since the last time Sumitomo and Yasuda's two things came together, he has been very busy.  Although he had already prepared so many banking elites, the sudden collective resignation of those senior executives still left him struggling to cope.  Although the people he brings are all elites, no matter what kind of elite they are, they must go through a process of becoming familiar with them!  No matter how familiar the process is, it won't work without Lin Zixuan, the big boss, to make the final decision, so Lin Zixuan is busy every day.  After settling in these two banks, Lin Zixuan, on the one hand, held a press conference to use the media to stabilize the rumors about the banks in Japanese society, and at the same time, he also wanted to use them to stabilize the stock market; on the other hand, he was raising manpower everywhere to supplement the banks.  For those vacancies, you must know that Fuji and Osaka Bank have a great background. Once those people resigned, many people were prompted to resign one after another. The role played is immeasurable, and the people brought by Lin Zixuan can only be counted.  Zuo is a small group of people.  At this point, he underestimated the unity of the Japanese people, and actually many ordinary employees resigned.  In the end, he had to ask Kong Xiangxi for help, but who knew that this old guy actually proposed some unequal treaties, which made Lin Zixuan very dissatisfied.  But what about being dissatisfied?  Who let this old guy manage a bank before?  He is also considered a veteran when it comes to finance.  Although it mainly harms the common people, on the other hand, he is still good at it.  ???The important thing is that this old guy still has a lot of people. With just one phone call, he can recruit dozens or hundreds of financial experts from Taiwan, and all of them were formerly in the country's central bank.  People who have done things in big banks like Sumitomo Bank and Bank of Communications are not only not intimidated by old banks with profound foundations like Sumitomo and Fuji Bank, but they are even not familiar with it at all.  Just when Lin Zixuan was forced to agree to this condition, people from Standard Chartered Bank and HSBC came to the door. They were willing to provide Lin Zixuan with personnel and were willing to inject US$10 million in capital, on the condition that the newly established Oriental Bank  Although the conditions for both parties were the same, Lin Zixuan decided to agree to the conditions of Standard Chartered Bank after considering it.  Many people don¡¯t understand why HSBC failed to win, because many people think that HSBC has a much deeper foundation than Standard Chartered Bank. However, when Lin Zixuan successfully acquired Standard Chartered Bank more than ten years later, people had to admire it.  Lin Zixuan's foresight and long-term vision.  When Kong Xiangxi heard the news, the old man almost smashed his drinking glass.  In his opinion, the conditions he proposed to Lin Zixuan were far more favorable than those of Standard Chartered Bank. Lin Zixuan did not agree to him but agreed to Standard Chartered Bank. This made him not angry.  But what can you do if you are angry? Now that Standard Chartered Bank has joined, even established banks such as HSBC and Citibank have to stay away, not to mention yourself?  In fact, he knew that the reason why Lin Zixuan agreed to Standard Chartered but not to him was because Lin Zixuan was afraid that one day he would take this bank as his own. After all, he had done this kind of thing many times before.  The cooperation between Lin Zixuan and Standard Chartered is purely commercial and will not be mixed with anything else. Even if there is any unpleasantness, it will only be solved through commercial means. But working with himself is different. Now he finally  I realized the serious consequences that my reputation had brought to me.  However, shortly after signing the contract with Standard Chartered, Lao Jiang sent a telegram to Lin Zixuan, hoping that Taiwan Bank could acquire 10% of the equity of Oriental Bank Financial Group for US$10 million.  As for how Chiang Kai-shek knew, Lin Zixuan knew that it was the old guy Kong Xiangxi who made the report without even thinking.  Seeing that Lin Zixuan had obtained such great benefits at such a small price, they must have felt very regretful in their hearts for not listening to Lin Zixuan's advice at that time.  Now that I see that Lin Zixuan has received such a huge benefit, I definitely want to get a share of it, but I can't blatantly ask for it from Lin Zixuan, so I can only go through Taiwan Bank, hoping to use commercial cooperation between banks to dissuade outsiders.  criticism.  Although he was very angry at Lao Jiang and the others for their behavior, Lin Zixuan knew that the four major families had done such things many times back then.  And my future development plans are inseparable from Taiwan's support, so I can only swallow my heart and agree to their conditions. Who will let them have the strength?  Although there is only one small island in their territory, their prestige is still very useful in this era, and this may be one of the reasons why Chiang Kai-shek and the others know that they will definitely agree!  Of course, Lin Zixuan did not agree without conditions. In his telegram to Chiang Kai-shek, he pointed out that Taiwan must allow the Bank of the East to open a branch in Taiwan, and it must also have part of the right to issue currency in the GMD occupied area, and this right is for a hundred years.  .  Lao Jiang in Taiwan may have felt that his actions were not loyal enough, or he may have felt that he still owed Lin Zixuan a lot of favors and was embarrassed to refuse, so he agreed. As for the currency issuance rights, through telegrams between the two parties, finally  It was settled for fifty years, and this was exactly what Lin Zixuan needed.  This contract was naturally signed by Presidential Office Director Wang Shijie on behalf of Chiang Kai-shek and Lin Zixuan. On the day of the signing, Chiang Kai-shek asked Kong Xiangxi to transfer US$10 million to Oriental Bank.  As for how such money came from, it was naturally the Americans who separated aircraft manufacturing and shipbuilding, which resulted in Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' selling prices falling.  Although because of these ten million US dollars, Taiwan Bank owned 10% of the equity of Oriental Bank for nothing, it was thought that it only spent five million pounds to buy these two banks, and it had already passed  The bank will get benefits decades later, which is the most important thing to him, so Lin Zixuan doesn't take it too seriously.  As for the shares of Oriental Bank, Lin Zixuan, under the advice of professionals, delisted Fuji and Sumitomo Bank, and then put the logo of Oriental Bank again after integration. When Oriental Bank came out of the market, there was a blowout.  The closing price that day had already jumped from the initial 1 yuan to 20 yuan, a full 20 times.  Of course, if an ordinary company wants to complete the delisting and integration of stocks, it will take a long time, but who makes Lin Zixuan now someone that even Americans dare not mess with?  So it only took a week to complete all the work.  Anyway, with the addition of 20 million U.S. dollars, as well as the funds he continued to transfer through Hang Seng Bank, the price of Oriental Bank in the Tokyo stock market has been soaring, not onlyInstead of being affected by the resignation of such high-level executives, it took advantage of the situation to gain a firm foothold and expand its influence in Japan.  Nowadays, the bank's loan and deposit business are quite prosperous and have great potential for revitalization. Not to mention, just three days ago, according to a new issue of newspaper evaluation, Oriental Bank has become Japan's largest commercial bank.  .  And since he was so busy, he naturally had no time to accompany Kong Xiangxi and others to inspect Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. By the time he received the news, the two parties had already decided to sign the agreement.  "Finally, it doesn't live up to expectations!" Chen Bofan's performance has been very bad recently. Although Kong Xiangxi, Wang Shijie and others did not blame him anymore, the ambassador always felt aggrieved.  However, as the ambassador to Japan, it was impossible for him not to come to such an important occasion, and he also wanted to come and have a look.  When he saw Kong Xiangxi and Wegner finishing the signing, they stood up and smiled and shook hands. The ambassador, who also came from old China and saw and personally experienced China's backwardness, couldn't help but get wet in his eyes.  "Yes. I will send the news to the president later, and he will be happy too." Wang Shijie also said softly.  "Do you have to wait a while? Is the president happy now?" Gui Yongqing said with a smile.  How could Lao Chiang not be notified in advance of such an important matter as signing an agreement?  If you wait until the signature is completed before notifying you, merit will become guilt.  "Yes, yes, yes, this is all my fault, hahaha." The handshake between Kong Xiangxi and Wegener made the atmosphere lively, whether they were standing or sitting; whether it was out of politeness  Still happy, everyone stood up and applauded.  Wang Shijie was particularly enthusiastic about filming, because he knew that although Kong Xiangxi who was standing on the stage today was the protagonist this time, because he was a non-staff member of the government, he, the Secretary-General of the Presidential Palace, was the main character.  The biggest beneficiary of this trip to Japan.  After the signing ceremony, there was a press conference. Taiwan was the first acquisition delegation to arrive in Japan and the first delegation to complete the acquisition of the target company. It was also the delegation that created the most topics. The reporters naturally had  Countless questions are prepared.  However, neither Kong Xiangxi nor Wegener obviously wanted to answer these questions too much, so the press conference only lasted ten minutes, and Kong Xiangxi only answered two more formal questions and ended.  However, it is worth mentioning that throughout the press conference, Lin Zixuan was sitting in the edge seat on the Taiwanese delegation's side, and was also illuminated by countless flashlights.  Unfortunately, perhaps because he was afraid of Lin Zixuan's "venomous tongue" or because he was afraid of being caught by Lin Zixuan and retaliate, he ended up in the same fate as the reporter from "Chao Ri Shimbun" and Tagawa, although many reporters turned their attention to him.  He looked around, but no one dared to ask him questions.  After the press conference, there was a cocktail party held by Wegener.  At this cocktail party, there were not only members of the Taiwanese delegation, one of the protagonists of the signing ceremony, but also members of delegations from many other countries and regions.  Such as Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sarawak, Sabah and so on.  However, compared to the Philippines and Indonesia, two independent countries.  At this time, Malaysia, Sarawak, Sabah and other places were still under the protection of the United Kingdom, and they still had the Queen of England as their supreme leader. In other words, these places were still British colonies.  Although after World War II, the independence consciousness in these areas became stronger and stronger, and they no longer listened to the British, but who made them not as capable as the British?  So we could only let the British Empire bully us.  And this is one of the reasons why some forces in these regions or countries are coveting the fat piece of Japan. After all, after acquiring these industries, their strength will increase a lot. Although it is not enough to fight against the United Kingdom, at least it will  I think I have enough confidence in negotiating with others.  Especially after seeing that Taiwan had taken the lead in acquiring the most attractive Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, everyone's eyes were red, eager to acquire the rest.  ¡°I hope this cooperation will make the friendship between the United States of America and the Taiwanese government more stable.¡± As the organizer of the reception, Wegner first found the Taiwanese delegation and expressed his wishes to Kong Xiangxi.  "Haha, thanks to General Wegener's kind words, this is also our hope." Kong Xiangxi raised his glass and clinked it with the other party, smiling similarly.  "Mr. Lin Zixuan, I also want to toast you and congratulate you on your successful acquisition of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries." After having sex with Kong Xiangxi, Wegner chatted a few words with Wang Shijie and Gui Yongqing, but the man who had been following him  But George focused his attention on Lin Zixuan, and walked over with a wine glass in his hand, his eyes shining brightly, as if Lin Zixuan was such a tempting piece of steak.  "General George, you are wrong. The acquisition of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has nothing to do with me. Mr. General, if you want to congratulate, you should go to those people." Lin Zixuan raised his glass with a smile, but did not follow this man.  Did the guys bump into each other? Instead, they pointed at Kong Xiangxi and others who were extremely happy.?.  "Didn't you come with their delegation? Since we are together, why can't you accept my congratulations?" George asked with a smile.  "General George, pretending to be stupid is not a good habit for the US military. Don't tell me that you don't know what will happen when I acquire Sumitomo Bank." Lin Zixuan said with a slight smile.  "Oh, you are the one you are talking about." George smiled "hehe", not caring at all about Lin Zixuan's almost straightforward sarcasm, "We feel very sorry for this. Leading a group of subordinates to resign at the signing ceremony is completely disrespectful.  Responsible behavior, Mr. Sumitomo Xianghe and Yasuo Yasuda should be condemned for this!" "That's it?" Lin Zixuan asked.  "Of course, do you still want us to arrest them?" George asked.  "If you can do this, I will be very happy and will express my gratitude to you because you have safeguarded the interests of us businessmen." Lin Zixuan smiled.  "Oh, Mr. Lin Zixuan, you are so bad. If I let people arrest those two guys, General Wegener or even General Ridgway will ask me to report to the military court as soon as possible." George smiled,  "You should know how powerful and influential the Sumitomo and Yasuda families are in Japan. In order to stabilize the mood of the Japanese people, they will definitely let me be the scapegoat, so I will not do such a thankless thing.  "So what? Don't intelligence officers like you often go to military courts?" Lin Zixuan asked with a smile.  "You are cursing me, Mr. Lin. Of course, if you can become our American nationality and join our department, this may be very big." George smiled without changing his face.  "Oh, according to what you mean, wouldn't I be excellent?" Lin Zixuan smiled.  "You are not excellent." George suddenly said seriously, "but very, very, very excellent!" "Do you want me to listen to you in reverse?" Lin Zixuan asked again.  "With your intelligence, you will be able to find the correct way to hear this sentence." George shrugged.  "Hahaha" Lin Zixuan laughed happily again, "General George, I find that you are becoming more and more interesting now. If it weren't for our different positions, we might be able to become good friends." "According to what you Chinese say, I  How can I describe this idea in terms of each other?" George raised his chin proudly, feeling relieved.  Because, since the moment Lin Zixuan stepped onto the Tokyo pier, every time he faced this guy, he had a feeling of powerlessness, which was quite uncomfortable. Now, although he only takes advantage of it verbally,  It is not easy to gain the upper hand.  After all, Lin Zixuan rules the roost with his words, otherwise he wouldn't be known as a poisonous tongue. Moreover, even Li Qiwei, the Supreme Emperor of Japan, lost his temper due to this man's few words. How can he take advantage of it?  It's settled.  However, speaking of it, this small advantage was nothing compared to the trouble Lin Zixuan caused them.  No one knows more clearly than themselves how serious the consequences of Lin Zixuan's "germ warfare" words are.  During this period, many influential newspapers in the world, such as the "Washington Post" and "The Times", even the "Wall Street Journal", which always only reports on finance and business, published a large-scale article about the US military's plans to  There is news about the use of bacterial weapons on the Korean battlefield, and each of these news reports is more mysterious than the last. Some even say that these bacterial weapons are simply experimental products for the US government, and the Korean battlefield is the testing ground for US bacterial and virus weapons!  Finally, even the Soviets questioned the American representatives at the United Nations General Assembly and threatened to drop a few more atomic bombs on Japan if the Americans dared to release bacteriological weapons in North Korea.  Although everyone knew that this was just a threat, Li Qiwei and others in Japan were under extremely heavy pressure.  The White House, Congress, and the Pentagon sent telegrams of inquiries one after another, and some members of the Republican and Democratic parties also sent warnings. A single American citizen even sent a letter asking whether Ridgway had treated the U.S. troops on the front line.  The lives of the young men were at heart. In addition, there were also large-scale anti-war demonstrations in the country. One of the slogans raised by these marchers was actually "Withdraw the Germ Generals", although in the end everyone spent a lot of energy  To put these rumors to rest, the impact has already been caused. The Soviets are launching an initiative at the United Nations General Assembly, requesting to send an inspection team to check whether Japan left a large number of bacterial weapons to the US military. If not, that's fine. If so, then  The documents must be handed over and destroyed, and all Americans and Japanese who have participated in this matter must be punished, including the Emperor of Japan.Ren, of course as the actual power holder in Japan, Ridgway and his predecessor MacArthur should also be punished!  "Indeed, we are each other!" Lin Zixuan also smiled and arched his hands towards each other.  Of course he himself is aware of the evil he has done.  Although I think George is just mediocre, since he has already gained a lot of advantages, why do he have to compete for verbal gains?  We are each other, and sooner or later you will have nowhere to cry.  The two took a sip of red wine, and Lin Zixuan said: "Can you tell me what kind of trap you have set for Taiwan." After George heard this, he immediately said as if he didn't understand anything: "What do you mean?  What kind of trap? " "Don't tell me you are innocent, I am not one of their idiots," Lin Zixuan said, "In fact, you set up a trap from the beginning, but did you go?  Thinking that I would appear in their group, that's why you went to the Presidential Palace to deliver the goods to my door. You did this because you were afraid that I would disturb you." Lin Zixuan said with a bitter smile: "Although I know you have a conspiracy.  , I also reminded them, but they have been blinded by the benefits you have released, so your plan is successful. " "Mr. Lin, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense!"  Said unhappily.  "I'm just talking in front of you, because now that you two have signed a contract, even if they know that you have a conspiracy, they can only live with it. What's more, I have warned them a long time ago, so what will happen to them in the future?  It has nothing to do with me," Lin Zixuan said.  "In that case, what else do you want to know?" George shrugged, "Not to mention I don't know anything." "Mr. Lin, let me introduce you to some friends." After parting with George on bad terms, he looked at Kong Xiang  Xi and his group were chatting happily with Wegener, and Lin Zixuan was too lazy to go over and get involved.  Because he knew that if he went there, Wegener would be very disgusted with him. More importantly, he was too lazy to talk to Kong Xiangxi, who looked like a villain, so he simply found a corner with a wine glass.  , slowly tasting the wine in his glass.  But maybe it was because he had become a bit famous recently, so he didn't wait for a while to be quiet.  Chen Bofan led several guys with dark skin over. Then, without waiting for Lin Zixuan to speak, he pointed at a chubby guy who looked like he was of South Asian race and said, "This guy is from Sarawak."  "Mr. Ahmad Kiya." "Hello, Mr. Lin!" Ahmad Kiya nodded immediately and extended his hand to Lin Zixuan.  "Hello, hello!" Ahmad Kiya's English was very good, and Lin Zixuan listened very easily.  "This is Mr. Aha Ali from Brunei." Chen Bofan pointed to another man dressed as a Muslim and introduced.  "Hello, Mr. Lin!" Aha Ali also spoke in English, but he did not shake hands with Lin Zixuan, only bowed slightly.  "Hello, hello!" Lin Zixuan also returned the gift.  The other party is a Muslim and believes in Islam. Although he also knows that the main purpose of this sect is actually peace-loving, but thinking of the news of later generations, he can't help but take a second look at this Aha Ali.  "Mr. Lin, you are now a celebrity in Asia. We all admire your speech at the Tokyo pier and at that press conference." Four or five people came, all from Southeast Asia.  area, and basically all come from British colonies.  This is why they can speak such smooth English.  And as soon as he opened his mouth, Ahmad Kiya first expressed his admiration for Lin Zixuan.  "You're flattered, I just simply stated the facts." Lin Zixuan smiled.  "What I admire most is what Mr. Lin said about third world countries. It can be said to be a general program for us colonized countries to get rid of their master countries and gain independent status. And your discussions have now become the  Leaders of independence movements in many countries agree, and our country is no exception,¡± said a representative also from the Sabah region in eastern Malaysian Borneo.  "Haha, please don't say that, otherwise the British will find someone to kill me." Lin Zixuan laughed.  National independence is not a big deal in the world now. Compared with the ideological battles that have caused the current bipolar opposition, the struggle to get rid of colonial status and gain independence is much gentler, so there is nothing taboo about talking about it.  of.  "However, I still admire your business achievements, Mr. Lin Zixuan, especially in a short period of time, you have turned Oriental Bank into the largest commercial bank in Japan, surpassing many old banks. This is very remarkable."  haAli said again.  "You are too flattering. That's because the two banks I acquired are the largest banks in Japan. Wouldn't the sum of the two be the largest? What's more important is that someone helped me, not that I have any.  What an ability." Lin Zixuan smiled.  It's just that he can't stand these people praising him one after another.  As the saying goes, if there is no courtesy, it is either adultery or theft.  "Haha, everyone, if you have anything to say, you can tell me directly. Mr. Lin Zixuan is not a person who likes to beat around the bush." ??Chen Bofan saw that Lin Zixuan seemed a little uncomfortable, and quickly stood up and said to the group of people he had brought.  "Really?" Ahmad Kiya asked.  "This is absolutely true! I have always been straightforward, so many things are straightforward." Lin Zixuan replied with a wry smile.  "In this case, let's talk it out. Mr. Lin, can I get a loan from your Oriental Bank?" Aha Ali said first.     "loan?"
