Chapter 1721: Indonesia Strategy
Take control of a country! Even though Lin Feng was very ambitious, he never wanted to control a country. (?Online novels control a country, which is far more than controlling a consortium. Even the Rothschild Foundation, although it is known as the "Sixth Empire", actually needs the Rothschild to control a country. It may collapse. After all, it is easy for a consortium to make money, but it is two different concepts to maintain the people's livelihood of a country.
Do you have this ability? ——Lin Feng asked himself, I’m afraid he really doesn’t believe this. Lin Feng gets a headache just thinking about taking care of the clothing, food, housing and transportation of hundreds of millions of people in a country.
Lin Feng shook his head repeatedly. It's better to make money more easily and freely. It's too tiring to control a country.
"Lin, I am not asking you to control Indonesia or manage the lives of Indonesians, but I am asking you to support people who are worthy of your trust to enter the Indonesian political arena and eventually become the president of Indonesia, while you hide behind the scenes and control everything. Continue Make your money and be your happy king," Abby Cohen said with a smile.
Lin Feng suddenly realized what he said. If that's the case, it's indeed possible. However, this is not easy, and he has no one to support him. If you try to bribe the people in power in Indonesia, you may end up being defeated, using your own power to get to the top and then kicking yourself away. This is very normal. Most Indonesians are wolf cubs and cannot support their families.
"Lin, actually you don't have to worry, it's not as difficult as you think to control Indonesia." Abby Cohen said playfully.
"Oh, tell me!" Lin Feng's eyes lit up. Soros also became very interested after hearing this. He wanted to see what good strategies Abby Cohen had.
"Lin, I'm not very good at this, but there are people in our company who are very good at it." Abby Cohen said with a smile.
"Who!" Lin Feng and Soros asked in unison.
You must know that Lin Feng has recruited many business talents, even wizards, such as Soros and Abby Cohen, but there are no such talents in politics. At least Soros does not remember such talents.
"Haha, former International Monetary Fund President Michel Camdessus and World Bank Vice President Anne Kruger, they are experts in this area." Abby Cohen said.
Lin Feng patted his forehead.
Indeed, Michel Camdessus and Anne Kruger are the only political talents in their camp who are currently capable. Although they are officially business people, in fact, these two organizations are dealing with governments of various countries, and their political understanding and abilities are far superior to those of Lin Feng and others. Find them, you’re right!
Not long after, Lin Feng called over Michel Camdessus and Anne Kruger.
"Boss, what's the matter? Have you found a profit model that maximizes profits?" The two now serve as presidents and special advisors of the "Virtual Currency Department" of "Second World" and have been planning the exchange of virtual currencies.
"World War" is about to be put into public beta. It has a huge game world map and a huge game system. If you follow the traditional point card charging model, I'm afraid it won't be able to attract players from all over the world. What's more, even if you charge a fee, its profits will be limited. Less than "second world" needs. Therefore, "War of the Worlds" plans to use the method of selling virtual currency to recover costs and earn a lot of dollars at the same time.
But there were also many problems during this period. For example, if the official currency was sold, it would directly cause an imbalance in the game, and it would become a world dominated by the rich. Although any game will eventually become a world for the rich, what Lin Feng hopes is to try to balance the gap between the rich and the poor in the game, at least to ensure that those with perseverance can also become the king of the game. What's more, if a game company directly sells currency, it will be questioned by the outside world, and it will also affect the interests of many professional players. If these people make trouble, it will also make the game a mess. Although there are ways to deal with them, it is a trouble after all, and the trouble can be stifled. There is nothing better than a cradle.
Therefore, Michel Camdessus and Anne Kruger have been looking for a profit model that can maximize the benefits of the "second world". No one can disturb them until they figure out the best profit model. (?Internet novel Therefore, the two of them were very surprised that Lin Feng suddenly called them.
"Haha, no, I have something else to trouble you." Lin Feng chuckled, a little embarrassed. It was Lin Feng who ordered that no one be allowed to disturb them until they figured out a profit model that maximized their profits. As a result, now I am bothering them.
Sure enough, Michelle Camdessus and Anne Kruger frowned slightly. They are all extremely serious and responsible people. Right now, "War of the Worlds" is about to be put into public beta, but the profit model has not yet been finalized. The two of them were naturally anxious, so they spent the whole day calculating with their team which profit model was more suitable. There are too many data involved, and any difference of a decimal point is enough to have an immeasurable impact on "War of the Worlds", just like the El Niño phenomenon.
As a result, Lin Feng is now bothering them with other things. Isn't this causing trouble? Especially, what is more exciting now than creating a new profit model! Once virtual currency becomes popular with the popularity of "War of the Worlds", it will become the second largest currency in the world in the future.
Thinking of this, Michel Camdessus and Anne Kruger were excited. They were also annoyed with Lin Feng for disturbing them for no reason.
Lin Feng didn't care about the two's anger. When they worked at the IMF and the World Bank, they faced politicians from various countries every day, and almost all of them were more powerful than Lin Feng. Facing so many politicians from various countries, the two did not show any color. Now that they were only slightly dissatisfied with him, Lin Feng was already very satisfied.
"It's like this. I originally wanted to snipe Indonesia's finance, but Abby Cohen suggested that instead of sniping Indonesia's finance, it would be better to control Indonesia, so that the profit would be greater. But how to control Indonesia, we don't know this, so we invited the two of you." Lin Feng said bluntly.
Although wanting to control Indonesia is a shocking thing to say. But in this small room, no one is a small character, and this kind of sniping a country's economy is not a big deal in the eyes of everyone. Of course, this is also because Indonesia is too small. If it is sniping countries like Germany, Britain, and the United States, it may not be.
"Control Indonesia?" Michelle Condessu and Anne Kruger looked at each other, and their faces changed slightly.
Obviously, their boss has big ambitions again. But it is also normal. When Lin Feng's wealth reaches this level, the simple increase of wealth is no longer attractive. The only thing that can attract people like them is the absolute power to control the life and death of a party. For example, the Morgan Consortium and the Rockefeller Consortium began to infiltrate the American political circles after their wealth reached its peak, and finally used wealth to control the United States, and then relied on the strength of the United States to control the world.
Lin Feng can only take this path if he wants to control Indonesia. Of course, unlike Morgan and Rockefeller, Lin Feng is not Indonesian, and he has recently been wanted by the Indonesian government, so it is not easy to control Indonesia.
However, although it is difficult, Michel Condessu and Anne Kruger think that there is no way.
"Boss, if you want to control Indonesia, you must first mobilize the power of Indonesian Chinese." Michel Condessu said.
Indonesian Chinese? ——Lin Feng was slightly stunned.
"Yes, Chinese Indonesians. Although Chinese Indonesians are in a low position in Indonesia today and have no say in politics, it is an indisputable fact that more than 70% of Indonesia's wealth is in the hands of Chinese Indonesians. As long as Chinese Indonesians can unite and control Indonesian politics, it is only a matter of time." Anne Kruger said.
Indeed, the power of Chinese Indonesians is very strong. If they unite, they can change the situation in Indonesia. However, the disunity of Chinese Indonesians is deep-rooted and has been around for a long time. Lin Feng can't think of any way to make this scattered Chinese Indonesians change their inherent problems.
One person is a dragon, ten people are insects! ——Lin Feng said.
"Indeed, it is very difficult to unite Chinese Indonesians." Michel Condesus sighed and shook his head.
In fact, the Chinese are a very powerful nation. This nation is not lacking in courage, wisdom, or ability, and has a large population, the first in the world. Logically speaking, it should be a nation that can lead the world. But in fact, the Chinese have a very low status in the international community. On the contrary, the Jews, with a pitiful small number of people, are undoubtedly the strongest and smartest nation in the world. In West Asia, they can build a country composed of Jews in a world that hates Jews. In the United States, Jews are an indispensable member of the upper class.
Two equally excellent nations, but there is such a big gap, just because of one point-unity. The Chinese are too disunited. Whether facing foreign invasion or in peacetime, the Chinese always like to consume their strength in internal struggles. This is also an important reason why China cannot stand at the top of the nation.
Indonesian Chinese, that is an extreme manifestation. 5% of the population occupies more than 70% of the wealth of the society. If it were in the United States, it would definitely become the most powerful race in the United States. But in Indonesia, the Chinese have a low status. Basically anyone can bully them, and they are discriminated against wherever they go. This is unreasonable and very strange. This is a very deformed morphological pattern.
"But, boss, now there is a chance to unite the Indonesian Chinese." Michel Condesus said.
Lin Feng's expression moved.
"Boss, due to the Indonesian tsunami, the superiority of the Chinese in Indonesia in life has become more prominent, which can be said to have deepened the hatred between the Chinese in Indonesia and other ethnic groups in Indonesia; plus your "Tsunami Charity Fund" only rescues the Chinese in Indonesia, which has exacerbated this hatred. Finally, your "Wolf Fang" entered Indonesia. Alas, as far as I am concerned, it will take at most one year, or even only three months, and it is very likely that there will be another Indonesian riot that is no less than the 1998 riot." Michel Condesus sighed.
Michel Condesus, as the former president of the World Monetary Fund, had a lot of dealings with Indonesian leader Suharto in the early stages of Indonesia's development. He still understands the situation in Indonesia after all. Originally, the hatred between the Chinese and other ethnic groups in Indonesia was very great, and it was usually suppressed by the Indonesian government for fear of causing too much riots. But now that Lin Feng has made such a fuss, the Indonesian government has lost face, and I am afraid that this layer of paper will be pierced again. Once it is pierced, it will be a great disaster.
However, opportunities and dangers always coexist. The greater the danger, the greater the opportunity. If a major riot breaks out in Indonesia again, that will be Lin Feng's opportunity.
"Then what should I do?" Lin Feng asked.
"It's very simple. Contact the Chinese Indonesians and form a Chinese alliance. Then use the wealth of the Chinese Indonesians to win over Indonesian executives, seek asylum, and find a spokesperson. When the time is right, establish your own political party and run for the presidency of Indonesia. As long as there is a Chinese who can become the president of Indonesia, the situation will be set. With the absolute wealth of the Chinese Indonesians, it is not a problem to control Indonesia." Anne Kruger said.
"What is the success rate?" Lin Feng asked.
"In three years, there will be a 70% success rate." Anne Kruger said confidently.
"So high!" Soros exclaimed.
"High? Soros, if you do it, there will only be a 1% success rate, but if the boss does it, there will be a 70% success rate." Anne Kruger glanced at Soros and said with a slightly provocative tone.
During Anne Kruger's tenure as vice president of the World Bank, the Asian financial crisis in 1997 did not bother her a lot. During that time, letters of help from Asian countries flew like snowflakes, and Asian politicians almost trampled on the threshold of her office, which almost made Anne Kruger collapse. Naturally, she had no good feelings towards Soros, who almost caused her to collapse.
Soros shrugged helplessly. The hostility towards Anne Kruger has been going on for a long time. Although Soros is ruthless in investment and would never make eight cents if he could make a dime, he is still very gentlemanly in normal times. Therefore, facing Anne Kruger's provocation, he didn't care.
Gentlemanly manners, a good man doesn't fight with a woman!
"Yes, boss, you are very popular in Indonesia now. You know, the Chinese Indonesians have suffered a lot in Indonesia, but if they are not united, they are scattered and can only be bullied by others. This time, your actions have helped them vent their anger. Therefore, as long as you make a call, you will definitely be attached to all sides. You will have no problem doing anything you want in Indonesia at that time." Michel Condesus said with a smile.
Lin Feng's current popularity, wealth, power, and government support behind him, as long as the Chinese Indonesians are smart, they will know how to choose. Moreover, the suppression of them by the Indonesian government will make them stick to Lin Feng.
"Then what should I do?" Lin Feng asked.
Lin Feng still didn't understand how to do it. This must be instructed by Michelle Condessu and Anne Kruger.
"Haha, this is very simple, but it is also a little dangerous. It depends on whether you have the courage, boss." Michelle Condessu smiled slightly.
Lin Feng frowned slightly. He had guessed what Michelle Condessu asked him to do.
"You want me to go to Indonesia to meet these Indonesian Chinese?" Lin Feng said slowly.
What? Let Lin Feng go to Indonesia! —— Abby Cohen stood up immediately.
"No, this is absolutely not possible. With the current attitude of the Indonesian government, if Lin goes there, he will definitely be detained. If things go wrong, he will be sentenced by the Indonesian government on trumped-up charges." Abby Cohen shouted.
"Yes. If the boss goes to Indonesia, it will be very troublesome." Soros also frowned.
You know, now Soros doesn't even dare to go to East Asia, fearing that he will be arrested by the local government using some dishonorable means. What's more, Lin Feng did more this time than him. Indonesia has directly wanted him, and he still went to Indonesia. Isn't that courting death?
"I know, I'll go! But I have to wait until the public beta of "World War". " Lin Feng said after thinking for a long time.
If I really want to control Indonesia, I must go there. Otherwise, I don't even dare to go to Indonesia, and I don't dare to take such a small risk. How can the Chinese in Indonesia be attached to me? Therefore, Lin Feng must meet them, give them confidence, and let them know that Indonesia is nothing in Lin Feng's eyes. In this way, these Chinese in Indonesia will have the courage to attach themselves to him. In this way, Indonesia can be controlled.
Scared! ——Soros and Abby Cohen were both shocked. They didn't expect Lin Feng to really agree to go to Indonesia.
Michelle Condessu and Anne Kruger nodded in admiration.
"This is a list of Indonesian Chinese and letters of recommendation. They are all some Indonesian Chinese I have contacted at the World Monetary Fund. They owe me a favor." Michelle Condesus wrote a few names on the paper.
"I also have a list here. You can contact them. I believe they will help you. Of course, if you can afford the price." Anne Kruger also handed Lin Feng a list. However, on this list, most of them are native Indonesians, but most of them are officials in the court.
"Thank you!" Lin Feng put the two lists in his pocket. This is very helpful for his plan to control Indonesia.
However, although he now has determination, courage, and connections, he still lacks one thing, that is, a detailed plan. However, Lin Feng is not going to rely on Michelle Condesus and Anne Kruger, but is going to discuss it with Li Zekai and others.
Lin Feng's appetite is not so big that he can't digest it if he wants to swallow Indonesia in one bite. However, if he joins Li Zekai and others, as long as the family behind him is also involved, it will not be a big problem to swallow Indonesia. Besides, the family behind Li Zekai and others is very experienced in how to infiltrate political parties. It is a good opportunity to ask for advice.
Of course, before contacting Li Zekai and others, there is one more thing to do - to give the Indonesian government more headaches, to make them more angry, and to force them to take action against the Indonesian Chinese. In that way, Lin Feng's success rate in inciting the Indonesian Chinese will be higher. ! ~!
