Chapter 861 The Mission of the Finance Minister

I didn’t ask stupid questions like, since trade protection policy can directly solve the trade conflict between the United States and Japan, why doesn’t the United States do this?

After Tang Guyi, Carter's thoughts instantly became clearer!

The United States does not want to crush Japan

Before the Soviet Union, the giant bear in the Far East, had not fallen, the United States needed Japan as a springboard. In the post-war reconstruction era, the United States invested so much money and effort in helping Japan recover. If it directly killed Japan, the United States would undoubtedly lose blood!

But we cannot allow the Japanese to grow bigger and bigger, and even begin to threaten the interests of the United States!

Hence, the current negotiation took place!

This negotiation, at best, sounds like a game between great powers, but at worst, it sounds a bit like a young couple quarreling.

The United States does not want to squeeze Japan to death, and Japan does not want to completely offend the United States, its financial backer. In addition to exporting goods and needing the American market, the Japanese are somewhat afraid of being sent to Siberia to dig potatoes.

Neither party wants to break up, but both feel aggrieved!

The United States feels that you ask for too much from me, and Japan feels that we, a girl, want to take something from you, what’s wrong? Eat two meals from you, what’s wrong?!

Now that Treasury Secretary Reagan has left, it seems more like he is saying to Japan: "If you don't promise me to eat less in the future, then let's break up! Let's see if you change your life to a free-spirited rooster, will your life be comfortable?"

In Japan, even if you mentally understand that your American boyfriend won't let you go, you still have to weigh your own weight to see if it's that important.

The initiative has always been in the hands of the United States!

Um.

There are ideas for writing scripts for the new TED talk show

Carter chatted with Tanguy from time to time, but spent most of his time thinking about his own problems, so he thought about it all the way to the hotel.

Then, because he stepped into the hall with his left foot first, he was called to Treasury Secretary Reagan’s room.

"Mr. Reagan?"

In sharp contrast to the image of the grumpy old man at the meeting, Treasury Secretary Reagan was sitting alone on the sofa in the living room at this time. His head was lowered, his slightly old palms were supporting his head, and his knuckles were faintly pressed.

Naoren's look

Walking softly to the other party, Carter called out.

"Carter?! Sit down. Are you surprised to see me like this?"

"Something. It looks like you are very tired now."

"Yeah, there's another call from the White House. My old friend is a little anxious! He's a little dissatisfied with our progress."

Treasury Secretary Reagan had a forced smile on his face:

"Speaking of which, this is part of the reason why I still have your boy."

"I?"

"It's you. If it weren't for your "Tucao Conference" program, people may not be so enthusiastic about the president's lack of economic achievements in the past three years. This public opinion has put a lot of pressure on the White House!"

"But that's not me"

Carter felt embarrassed.

One of the purposes of doing TED is to build momentum for Reagan and this talk in public opinion. Because Carter knew that as long as this thing is negotiated, the US economy will definitely recover!

The groundwork was laid in advance and Reagan's achievements were told. This was obviously a flattery. The result.

Judging from the current situation, my behavior is somewhat "backstabbing".

"Okay, okay, I know what you mean. Mr. Bush has already explained it to you. You don't have to worry about them making things difficult for you. It's just that the pressure I'm facing here is a bit too great. Mr. President hopes that we can negotiate it within a month."

Results.”

"I'm afraid this will be difficult!"

Carter breathed a sigh of relief just now and took it up again.

A young couple quarreling is not a quarrel between a young couple. They can also quarrel at the end of the bed and make peace at the head of the bed.

It's normal for this young couple to quarrel and start a "cold war" at every turn, which can last for several months!

Want to "reconcile" quickly.

Perhaps there are only two ways: first, take the initiative to surrender; second, force the other party to take the initiative to surrender!

If the United States wants to recover economically, it will definitely not work to take the initiative to surrender. Then the remaining solution is. Carter seemed to understand why Treasury Secretary Reagan was so irritable today, and he got up and left immediately after a disagreement.

"Yes, it's difficult! These Japanese people are the most tolerant! No matter how you scold or stimulate them, it's hard for them to have any mood swings. I'm afraid it's not enough to just rely on the pressure at the meeting. I asked you to come here

so"

"If you have time during this period, when you go to your Japanese friends to play, pretend to reveal some information to them unintentionally. I don't think I need to teach you how to do it. The general meaning is: the United States has already

Without the patience to negotiate slowly, the noise of trade protectionism is getting louder and louder."

"If necessary, you can even program me. For example, as the election is approaching, the President urgently needs to make the U.S. economy recover in order to gain votes. He is very interested in the tireless negotiation work of me, the Finance Minister.

He was dissatisfied, thinking that I could not achieve the situation he needed before the election, and had the idea of ​​​​changing the coach, etc."

"I understand what you mean. When you are drinking and bragging with them, pretend to be unintentionally complaining and pass on the information. This will make it appear more real."

"Well, that's right. Well, this is what I'm here to do with you this time. You go ahead. Don't worry about the school. I will write to you, Principal Giyama, to apply for an exemption for you. During this period,

Very crucial!”

"Mr. Sherman! Hahaha, I finally found you. Thank you for answering my questions today. I will make arrangements tonight?"

After coming out of Treasury Secretary Reagan's room, Carter found his "wingman"!

Perhaps, compared to himself, the "American megaphone" who has been registered with the Japanese, it is easier for Tang Guy, a novice, to win their trust with his "drunken mantra"?

"Huh? You don't have to. How much does an intern cost per month for you? If you are asked to spend money, if this spreads out, I will be embarrassed to see people in the future! Wait a minute, I will call some colleagues, and we will be together

Go, there are so many people!”

Tangguy's enthusiasm made it impossible for Carter to tell that he was a scholar-type official studying policy issues. But once the other party's words came out, Carter could not stop him, and he could not stop him.

About half an hour later, unwilling to be left alone, a group of lower-level officials from the Ministry of Finance who rarely went out of the country left the hotel shoulder to shoulder. Taking off their serious suits, a group of young people in their twenties emerged.

Many people are not even qualified to enter the venue. They come here just to help run errands and do miscellaneous tasks. They care very little about those important national affairs!

Traveling at public expense may be their biggest expectation for this trip!

However, the large number of people inevitably made Carter a little worried about how to handle the tasks assigned to him by Treasury Secretary Reagan.

I can't talk to them all one by one and agree on the same tone in private, right? That's too fake! If there is another bad drinker who drinks too much, he will reveal the thing about his speaking skills in advance. That guy

, everyone knows that the United States is a cruel and evil person.

Mixing in the crowd, feeling sad while walking

In this dilemma, Carter suddenly heard the sound of a dispute breaking out from the front of the team:

"Why don't you accept American guests?! You said you don't accept foreign guests, but a European guy just came in!"
Chapter completed!
