Chapter 5900: Invitation From France
Shipping companies are going to cry! There is no room for reasoning!
If it doesn't work in the United States, go to the European head office. Most of these shipping companies are European companies. The United States is no longer the world's police force, so let's find those big brothers from the past.
Britain, as an old imperialist country, although now in decline, is still strong.
There is also France. Before World War II and before being conquered by Hitler, France always claimed to be the world's most powerful country. Today, the French are still proud, proud Gallic roosters, that is, the French. France is also the only country in the European Union that never speaks English. In France, everyone is proud to speak French, but English has almost no place for survival.
Although in order to do business, many French people also speak English. But normally, I would never say that. They never speak English when it has nothing to do with business. Either you speak French and communicate with them, or you don't. This is the pride of the French.
These two countries must be managed!
But as a result, these two countries are also hesitant. The reason is simple. Although these domestic shipping companies are all victims this time, Lin Feng is behind Somalia. This is none other than Lin Feng.
What is behind Lin Feng? 18 trillion US dollars! All countries are eyeing this money. Who doesn’t want Lin Feng to invest in various countries? As for Lin Feng's relationship with various European countries, the first is the United Kingdom, followed by Italy, then France, and then Germany. These four countries all have good relations with Lin Feng.
You think, is it worthwhile to offend Lin Feng for such a small amount of money? Not a good deal! They kept silent and could still sell Lin Feng a favor. As far as Lin Feng's character is concerned, you sell favors to him. He will definitely pay off.
Therefore, the British and French governments responded with silence. Of course, we still need to express our stance to the outside world.
British Prime Minister Gordon Brown declared: Regarding Somalia. We must take a long-term approach. Since Somalia is now a Catholic country, we should look at it as a matter of brotherhood. Provide certain assistance to them. Of course, this requires the Pope to take the lead.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy declared that the Somali problem cannot be solved by force. On the contrary, conflicts in Somalia will become more intensified. This will make it even more troublesome for ships from various countries to pass through Somali waters in the future. Therefore, both parties should sit down and talk. France is willing to invite both parties to negotiate in Paris. At the same time, it is willing to invite Mr. Lin as a notary to preside over this meeting!
Obviously, French President Sarkozy is a noble man and does not care about drinking. But this also shows an attitude. Fight, you can't fight. France will never send troops. So if these shipping companies want to avoid paying tolls, they can only come to Paris to negotiate.
In this regard,
These shipping companies are also confused. Isn't this clear-cut robbery? Why is no one in the world taking care of it? Is there any justice in this?
This is unreasonable!
However, all the countries in the world did not care. These shipping companies could only smash their teeth and swallow the blood in their stomachs. Well, in that case, let’s talk about Paris!
But Lin Feng must be there! otherwise. We would rather not go through the Suez Canal! We can go all the way around Africa without paying any money! ——These shipping companies have spoken out and negotiated in Paris. Must see Lin Feng. There is nothing we can do about this. The culprit behind this incident is Lin Feng. If he is not present, who will he talk to? King Dashil? They wouldn't talk to this rough guy who was a pirate leader just a few years ago.
Without Lin Feng, Dahir would be nothing! I have no right to talk to them at all. Therefore, Lin Feng must be present.
Immediately, President Sarkozy began to make arrangements. Of course, everyone else is easy to talk about. The only troublesome one is Lin Feng. What should I do if Lin Feng doesn’t want to come?
"I'm just an investor in Somalia, and this 'high-speed waterway toll' is just a proposal from me. A proposal to help Somalia solve its chaos forever. As for the outcome, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just an outsider!" Lin Feng, however An understatement. shirk.
Sarkozy is anxious. If you don't come here, that won't work. He still had many things to discuss with Lin Feng.
"Mr. Lin, those shipping company bosses are not willing to talk to King Dahir at all. They are only willing to talk to you, otherwise, they would rather go around Africa than take the Suez Canal!" Sarkozy begged.
"Then let them go. They would rather make less money and it's none of my business. I don't care!" Lin Feng looked calm. Lin Feng had no interest in messing with this kind of muddy water!
Of course, it's not impossible, but it must be beneficial. Lin Feng would not do anything that was not profitable.
Pleading to no avail.
"Okay, Mr. Lin, let's open the skylight and tell the truth. How can you be willing to come over?" President Sarkozy was at his wits end.
"To be honest, I am not willing to get involved in this matter. After all, I am a businessman and I do not want to get involved in political events. Although I started this matter, Copernicus also said that the sun is As for the center of the universe, it has been proven that it is not the case. Is it possible to dig him out of the grave and make him apologize?" Lin Feng shrugged.
Sarkozy's voice on the other end of the phone was air-conditioned. This is a bit of a rogue statement. Is there such a metaphor? These are two different things at all! Of course, although Sarkozy is a little depressed, he will not vent it. Who wants to beg Lin Feng now?
"Okay, we are friends after all, so I can come. But, we have to make an agreement!" Lin Feng made his request.
Three chapters of agreement! OK! As long as you can come! Sarkozy immediately agreed.
"First, His Holiness the Pope must also be present. He is the host, and I will only be present as a special advisor!" Lin Feng proposed the first condition.
This matter can be big or small. Before Lin Feng proposed this "toll", he had thought of all the causes and consequences. Francis must be present. Of course, how he comes is up to Sarkozy.
"Okay!" Sarkozy said nothing! He agreed. He believed that the Pope should come to this matter. After all, this matter has made a big fuss, and the Kingdom of Somalia was personally canonized by His Holiness the Pope.
"Second, I don't want to make a fuss when I come. So, I will not accept interviews from reporters throughout the whole process! I will leave after this matter is discussed!" Lin Feng ordered.
When he arrived in France, there must be a lot of things to do, and Lin Feng didn't want to waste time in France. If he stayed in France for a long time, should he go to the UK? And Italy must go, and then Germany? Go or not? And Russia? If he goes, he must go. So, he must keep a low profile.
"Okay! I will never announce it to the public!" President Sarkozy nodded. He had finally invited Lin Feng here, so he didn't want to share it with others.
"Third, that is the agricultural mechanization process. I want to go and investigate it! You must provide me with relevant technology! Of course, it's not free, I can pay!" Lin Feng asked.
France has very few local resources, and almost all of its resources rely on imports. However, France's industrial level ranks among the top in the world. Its nuclear power equipment capacity, oil and oil processing technology rank second in the world, second only to the United States; its aviation and aerospace industries rank third in the world, second only to the United States and the CIS. The steel industry and textile industry rank sixth in the world.
What really makes France amazing is its agriculture. Its main products are wheat, barley, corn, fruits and vegetables. Naturally, wine production ranks first in the world. There are also dairy, meat and poultry industries.
France is the largest agricultural producer in the European Union and a major exporter of agricultural and sideline products in the world. As for why such a small country like France can become a major exporter of agricultural and sideline products in the world, it naturally relies on mechanization. France has basically achieved agricultural mechanization and has a high agricultural productivity. It can be compared with the United States.
Naturally, the agricultural food processing industry is one of the pillar industries for France to obtain a surplus in foreign trade exports. 24 of the top 100 agricultural food industry groups in Europe are in France, and 7 of the top 100 agricultural food industry groups in the world are in France. France's agricultural and sideline product exports rank first in the world, accounting for 11% of the world market. (The United States accounts for 16.5% of the world's grain production)
As for China, China's agriculture is very poor. In many places, it is still a very traditional agricultural planting model, and it is still planted by hand, and even harvested by hand. Slightly more advanced ones will also unite several harvesters to come in. This has led to the fact that although China has been a major agricultural country since ancient times, and its grain output also accounts for an important proportion of the world (24.58%), farmers are very hard and do not make money.
In China, the vast majority of farmers do not make money after working hard for a year. Many farmers would rather go to the city to work than stay in their hometown to farm. Because, farming can only earn four or five thousand yuan after eating and drinking for a year, and working in a big city, although it is also very tiring, can earn so much in a month. Tell me, who is still willing to farm!
Lin Feng wants to change China. First of all, he wants to make Chinese people make money and become rich. Agriculture is naturally the top priority. The best place to learn from is France! Because the total land area of France is only 550,000 square kilometers. Although the plain area occupies two-thirds of the land area, it can account for 11% of the world's grain production. This is based on its almost universal agricultural mechanization.
Lin Feng wants to bring French agricultural mechanization to China so that Chinese farmers can also make a fortune. For thousands of years, farming can only feed the whole family. In a disaster year, you have to wait for relief! This bad habit of thousands of years, Lin Feng hopes to change it.
Of course, there is also industry! France is also a very good object to learn from. This time, France invited Lin Feng to calculate accurately. The United States will not care, so there are only Britain and France. Britain has its own $5 trillion "debt", and they will not be too enthusiastic and want to offend themselves.
Only France! The most enthusiastic! So, let me learn from it and see how France mechanizes agriculture!
(My cold got worse! I thought it was getting better after swimming, but after resting for a while, it got worse! There are only two updates today! I hope everyone takes care of themselves!)
