Chapter 378 Storm Level (First update, please subscribe)

This year seems to be just an ordinary year, but this year is so different from the past.

Many people are willing to use the term "the first year of electronics" to describe this year.

No matter how many major events happened this year, the real major event was the popularization of electronic computers.

From the 1st to the 30th, from one company to six companies, compared to the absolute secrecy in Soviet Russia, Nanyang's electronic computers are undoubtedly open and have been widely used in the engineering field.

This wide range of applications is the prerequisite for the further development of electronic computers.

Just like when Watt invented the steam engine, he never knew what changes his invention would bring to the world.

When Z5 was invented, Chu Ze also had no idea what kind of changes it would bring to the world. When change comes, people are often slow to realize it.

But sometimes, people's sense of smell is still very keen, such as the Russians, who also realized the importance of the Z5 computer, from the initial "protest" against Nanyang's accommodation of Third Reich war criminals, to later, Sergey During the negotiations, we expressed our understanding of the accommodation of war criminals in Nanyang.

The on-and-off negotiations lasted for two months, and finally Sergey stated his true goal.

"Z5!"

Sergey said in the office of the manager of Nanyang Labor Service Company in Tokyo.

"We need Z5 electronic computers, and we hope that your country can sell us two z5 electronic computers."

Faced with Sergey's request, Jia Wentao fell silent.

He didn’t know much about the Z5. He only knew that it was a very amazing invention. Faced with this purchase request, he said straightforwardly.

"You know, this is something I can't decide."

"So, you will have three days to make a decision, by the way..."

Sergey said.

“I heard that there are some members of the labor service company who may have been engaged in assisting the evacuation of reactionary soldiers. Therefore, their activities always require some safety guarantees!”

The sudden news made Jia Wentao frown and said coldly.

"Is this a threat?"

"No, this is just a sign of friendship."

Sergey shook his head and said.

“In this industry, in order to achieve some goals, we often need to cooperate, such as some kind of security guarantee.”

“You should know that we will not accept any blackmail. ”

"This is not blackmail, just some kind of security guarantee."

The reason why Sergey emphasized this is because through past negotiations, he found that the other party was not willing to do anything on the issue of war criminals. In compromise negotiations, war criminals alone are not enough to make them make concessions. For this, some special bargaining chips are needed.

After thinking for a moment, Jia Wentao said.

"I will notify the country of this matter, but if our personal safety is threatened... there are also people like you in Tokyo."

"Don't worry, I As I said, we all need security! ”

Sergey said with a smile.

"We need the Z5, and we also know that you sold the Z5 to the Americans, so we need it! Not only that, we also hope to establish diplomatic and business ties with you."
< br>...

"That's it..."

Faced with the report sent by the Secret Intelligence Service, Li Yian didn't even bother to complain.

"Everything they did was for z5?"

Cheng Peng'an replied.

"Probably, Sergey made it very clear that they need it." With a sneer, Li Yian didn't even know how to answer. He picked up a cigar from the cigar box on the table and lit it. Holding it, he took two puffs silently.

After being silent for a while, Li Yian said.

"Actually, if the Russians had expressed their intention to come from the beginning, I would definitely not have refused."

Why not? Because there is no need to refuse. After all, even if Borneo is not for sale, they will Will research it.

American money is money, and Russian money is also money.

Business in Borneo in the future will not be as rigid as the United States, but as flexible as France and Germany. As long as you have money and are willing to pay, you can buy it.

Business is not just about making money.

But now, after being threatened, Li Yian immediately became very uncomfortable,

Good guy.

From the beginning, this can be understood as war criminals looking for a way to contact them, but now they are using the so-called "security guarantee" as a threat.

As expected, these old guys are doing business... focusing on something unexpected.

After thinking about it, Li Yian said.

"Tell the Russians that we agree to export and deliver it secretly, but each Z5 needs to pay 20 tons of gold!"

Twenty tons of gold!

In an instant, Cheng Pengan was stunned and said in shock.

"Twenty tons of gold? One machine? This is so expensive,"

"You don't understand,"

Li Yian smiled after taking a puff of his cigar.

"Knowledge is priceless. 20 tons of gold cannot buy them from suffering losses, nor can they buy them from being fooled. There is no shop like this after passing this village."

For these broken warships, Anyone who dares to sell 17 tons of gold should be more ruthless!

Besides, is twenty tons of gold expensive?

Not expensive at all.

What is an electronic computer?

It’s the outlet!

It is a wind outlet that will change the world. The only problem is that sometimes, even if some pigs rush to the wind outlet, they cannot blow.

It would be a shame not to kill someone who has been taken advantage of like this.

Just when Li Yi'an offered a sky-high price and dragged Soviet Russia into the electronic computer trend, along with a telegram from the representative of the Nanyang Republic to the United Nations, a bigger trend came. Opened to Southeast Asia.

"We are going to Geneva for trade negotiations!"

Raising the telegram in his hand, Li Yi'an said excitedly to Liu Chengyu, the Minister of International Trade and Industry.

“I have always said that the foundation of Borneo is to “build a nation through trade.” “Building a nation through trade” is the foundation of our development. However, in the current environment, “building a nation through trade” has many constraints.”

The reason why Li Yian said this was because of the special international trade environment before the war.

“After the 1929 economic crisis, countries around the world have significantly increased tariffs to protect their own economies. The United States increased tariffs by an average of 40%. Subsequently, 76 countries took retaliatory measures and increased import tax rates by 60%. To 100%, the "Imperial System of Preferences" promoted by the British is also trade protection within the Commonwealth and colonies. The French also have similar trade protection. Under such high tariffs and trade protectionism, "trade establishment" is simply a castle in the air. "< br>


In fact, it is not the case. Judging from the current industrial production capacity of Borneo, it can already make a full meal just by relying on the Commonwealth market. This is a zero-tariff market with almost 500 million people. For such a large market, The market, let alone clinging to the thigh of Britain, even if it calls George VI Dad, there is no problem.

“So if we want to “build a nation through trade”, we must break the trade protectionism of various countries and the mutual restrictions on international trade. As long as this is broken, “building a nation through trade” will no longer be empty talk. What we are opening is not just a Commonwealth market, but the whole world! The United States, Western Europe and South America..."

The corner of his mouth rose by more than 66.6 degrees, Li Yi'an said.

“Now, our wind outlet is here!”

What outlet is it? It is clearly a Category 12 typhoon. Originally a Commonwealth market, the industrial and commercial community of Borneo After eating so much, markets all over the world suddenly opened up. It was a Category 12 typhoon. In such a typhoon, even an elephant, not to mention a pig, could be blown into the sky. Blow to the sky!

Handing the telegram from the ambassador to the United Nations to Liu Chengyu, Li Yian's expression became extremely solemn.

"Seizing this opportunity, we will surely soar into the sky! Now, your task is to set up a special negotiation team and organize our best economic and tariff experts to go to Geneva to participate in negotiations!"
