Negotiation? When Li Cong heard this word, he even wanted to laugh at this guy. Why are you negotiating with yourself? Two people with the same strength sitting together to discuss things are called negotiations. You have nothing in your hands now.
Why are you negotiating with me?
"Mr. Li, when Palestinian National Authority Chairman Arafat first came to the United Nations, he said that I came to seek cooperation with an olive branch in one hand and a submachine gun in the other. My situation now is similar to that of that time, and I also came to seek cooperation.
Cooperating, I hope Mr. Li can let me see your sincerity." This old guy is an old politician. If you talk about these things, Li Cong really can't compare with him. After all, he is from the same era as the former Prime Minister, and even in terms of experience, we are different.
There are quite a few.
"Wait a minute, I seem to have heard this sentence before. It seems that Mr. Mandela said something wrong. At that time, Mr. Arafat said that he was here to seek help, not cooperation." Li Cong also heard it.
This allusion at that time was changed without authorization by this old guy who bullied his youth.
Mandela gave Li Cong a meaningful look. This young man was really beyond his expectation. He knew that today's negotiation would be really difficult, but he had no choice but to come. If Li Cong immediately
If we provide aid to South Africa, it may take at least ten years of chaos for South Africa to settle down. This is different from the Asian financial crisis. At that time, although Southeast Asian countries were also in chaos, the surrounding countries were stable, so they could also survive.
Everything settled down within five years.
But the environment around South Africa is different. South Africa is surrounded by war-torn countries. In the past, when South Africa was strong, they did not dare to mess around. Now South Africa is also in chaos. The surrounding countries will definitely come to take advantage of it. If
If it really falls into civil war like the surrounding countries, let alone ten years, twenty years will probably be in vain.
Thinking of this, Mandela looked at Li Cong with some resentment. If the affairs of Africans were left to Africans, how could there be so many things? It was these foreigners who had messed up the whole of Africa.
For hundreds of years these foreigners have only harmed us Africans.
"Then I'm here to ask for help." It's one thing what Mandela thinks, but he can't be so tough when he says it, otherwise Li Cong will just stare and ignore it. Li Cong can do such a thing
.
"Haha, that's right. In fact, South Africa's own economic strength is still good, but what is missing now is the confidence that I can help South Africa return to the situation a few weeks ago within five years. Of course, this is definitely not free.
Yes, there are not many conditions. There is only one condition. I hope Mr. Mandela can leave South Africa and promise not to set foot in Africa during his lifetime." Li Cong's words were merciless, and Mandela's forehead was raised when he heard this.
of sweat.
Leaving Africa? Although Africans don’t want to return to their roots as much as the Chinese do when they get old, they don’t want to leave their hometown when they are old. South Africa can be said to be the result of Mandela’s lifelong struggle. At the age when he is about to see God, he actually can’t help but
It’s really sad to see this achievement become someone else’s and that I can no longer influence this country at all.
"Mr. Li, I have grown up on this land since I was a child. I hope you can allow me to stay here. What can I do as an old man who is almost ninety years old? Maybe I can help sometimes.
You're not busy at all." Mandela said eagerly. He really didn't want to leave here. He was a bit out of his mind when he spoke. He didn't look like the president of a big country, just like a market buyer haggling.
Help? Li Cong raised his head and glanced at him, and thought to himself, forget it. As long as you don’t do anything to me, I’ll be happy. No matter what kind of person he is, for a foreigner who robbed his home, that’s all.
There is nothing to like about it, let alone help.
"Mr. Mandela, we might as well open up the matter and say that South Africa is in a mess now. You have also asked for international assistance, but look at what you have come up with. I think South Africa will not be able to survive without my help."
It will continue to be the same chaos as other parts of Africa. This is what none of us want to see, so you came to me, and I also want to save South Africa, but I have saved South Africa, and who of us has the final say then?
What?" Li Cong said the main problem.
Mandela's mouth twitched, and he wanted to stand up and yell at Li Cong for being a scoundrel. South Africa used to be good. If you didn't come to cause trouble, everything should be fine. Since you came, South Africa has become a rogue.
It has become what it is now, but he also knows how powerful the person in front of him is. It is estimated that if he curses, he will be asked to leave immediately, and then South Africa will really be over.
Li Cong did not continue talking. Some words do not require much persuasion, and he is not the kind of person who writes ink. If you are willing, we will talk. If not, just pull it down. Li Cong directly took a document bag from his desk.
, which contains an agreement regarding this cooperation.
Although the Mandela family's properties in South Africa are no longer valuable, and there is still a certain amount of debt, the infrastructure construction is still possible. Li Cong is prepared to buy it for a symbolic one dollar and give it to Mr. Mandela in Australia.
He bought an island and built several villas on it for his big family to live there. Finally, he received a check of 200 million US dollars and promised to give Mandela a pension of 10 million US dollars every year.
, he will continue to give even after his death.
This is already the highest price Li Cong can offer. If Mandela still doesn't accept it, then he will announce today's negotiations. Of course, they are all revised, and he will definitely give Mandela the price.
Described as a guy who disregarded the interests of the country for his own private interests, Mandela will really have nothing left by then. He will probably remain infamy for a lifetime, and his family will probably be exterminated.
"Mr. Mandela, I heard that you also have a large farm in the UK. In fact, I also have one there, and it happens to be next to yours. What a coincidence. In recent days, I have heard from my old butler
Tell me, it seems that there are a lot of strangers visiting your place, and the public security in Britain is not very peaceful recently, so please pay attention." Li Congda said meaningfully, I have been waiting for you, old guy, for a long time, and you still haven't come yet.
Give yourself an answer, then I can only give you some strong medicine. If you don't want the life of your entire family, then there is really nothing we can say.
Mandela's brows could no longer be furrowed. He had really been humiliated this afternoon, and now Li Cong was threatening him with the lives of his family as a bargaining chip. The old man felt that life was worse than death at this moment.
, but Mandela knew that he could not get into trouble now, and had not reached any agreement with Li Cong. If something happened to him, he would definitely go to his eldest son to talk to him according to Li Cong's code of conduct. It is estimated that the conditions would be certain by then.
It will be even more harsh than it is now.
Is it two hundred million U.S. dollars? Once upon a time, my family's assets were at their peak, reaching more than 40 billion U.S. dollars. Now they have shrunk two hundred times? Ten million U.S. dollars? Once upon a time, my family could earn this amount in one day. Now,
But they have to use this little money every year to maintain their lives. In the future, the family members will become ordinary people. Maybe this is a fair thing for them. After all, they have bullied others for more than ten years, and now they should
An ordinary person.
Mandela looked up at the setting sun outside, and unknowingly he was like that sunset. It was just that the scenery was beautiful, but his mood was uncomfortable. When every big shot has a hero's grave, it seems that he
The time has come, the future of South Africa should belong to this young man in front of me.
It is really difficult for others to take South Africa from this young man's hands. The British and Americans all wanted to take South Africa from their own hands, but they failed. This young man did it.
It only took him a week to do it. He should have no regrets for losing at the hands of such a person. It was probably because he could no longer keep up with the world.
"Okay, I agree to your conditions, but I think you can give my family a little freedom. They don't have to stay on that island. I will stay there honestly. I hope you can treat this country well.
Be kind to the people of South Africa." Mandela almost exhausted all his strength to say these words. After finishing speaking, it seemed that he had no strength at all. He could only breathe heavily and put in all his life's hard work.
If you give it to others, this feeling is really worse than death.
Li Cong could clearly see a tear in the corner of Mr. Mandela's eye, but he was not sad at all. It was the same as what he said, victor and defeater. In order to prevent himself from shedding fewer or even no tears in the future, he was right now.
Let others shed tears.
Li Cong personally sent the old giant out of his reception room. Looking at his old body and staggering steps, Li Cong suddenly thought whether he would ever have this day, or maybe there would be a day when others would be like that.
Even if you can't see the person you're talking to, your descendants will definitely see it. How can there be a country that lasts for ten thousand years? The ancient emperors all hoped that their dynasties could be passed down, but those kings who subjugated their countries did not.
How did it come about? A group is always slowly getting worse, and then it is overthrown, and then a new group is formed, and then it is slowly getting worse, and then it is overthrown, and then...
Li Cong laughed at himself, what on earth was he thinking? Why wasn't he happy after winning? He shook his head and wanted to get rid of his evil thoughts. His dominance has just begun, even if it is his son or grandson.
If your own kingdom is defeated, it is beyond your control. Your children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, and many things are beyond your control.
Since everyone in the Mandela family had already gone to the UK, Mandela's own evacuation work was very fast. Less than forty-eight hours after leaving Li Cong's reception room, President Mandela boarded a special plane to Australia.
, Li Cong also personally went to the airport to see him off to show his respect. Of course, he sent his son to personally suppress the old guy on the way.
Looking at the departing plane, Li Cong knew that a new chapter in South Africa was about to begin. The Mandela era in South Africa was truly over, and the era of new energy groups was about to begin.
Faced with such a mess like South Africa, Li Cong also has his own reconstruction plan, which is all planned, so he will not feel panic now. A large amount of food is necessary. Although South Africa is the largest producer in Africa,
When there is turmoil, food is the most important thing, and other energy-related things are also very precious. Fortunately, the energy group has all these things, and there is no shortage of anything. According to the government's rationing, South Africa has quickly settled down. Of course, it is stable.
The reason why they came down was also because of Angola's 30,000 soldiers. After a hail of bullets were fired, who would dare to mess around on the street?
The person who came forward to organize the government was Mr. Zuma, the president of the previous government. Although this guy seemed useless in the face of the financial crisis, it is obviously better to have a useless president than to have no president at all. Looking at the messy presidential palace, Zuma
Ma didn't know who to direct his anger at. It was Mandela's eldest son who made this place look like this. But now that guy has arrived in the UK, and he obviously can't take it out on him. But in the final analysis, what happened
The energy group that caused this catastrophe was the energy group that caused the financial crisis, so there was nothing he could do about it. Everyone knew that Li would be his master from now on.
Li Cong admitted that he did not have the ability to manage the country, but Zuma could still do it. He only needed to be able to manage Zuma. Isn't that what those in power do? With the arrival of large amounts of aid from energy groups,
A month later, South Africa has seemingly returned to the state before the turmoil, but now everyone in South Africa has basically become proletarians. Most of the things in the country belong to either energy groups or the government. It would be great if socialism was to be implemented here.
s Choice.
Of course, it was impossible for Li Cong to implement any communist policies out of boredom. That was not what he wanted. Li Cong began to adjust South Africa's economic policy through Zuma and his own assistance. In the past, South Africa mainly exported machinery and minerals.
As the main source of income, when people from other parts of the world mention South Africa, it is also about gold and diamonds, but they know very little about other things.
The first step Li Cong needs to take is the issue of gold. This is a good thing. Article 1 of South Africa’s new constitution stipulates that gold is state-owned. To put it bluntly, it is not owned by Li Cong himself. Any foreign and domestic companies must immediately sign a new agreement with the government.
All contracts signed by the previous government will be invalidated.
This work of recovering gold took about a year to end, mainly because there were gold mining groups in South Africa from all over the world. No matter how arrogant Li Cong was, he would not dare to offend so many people rashly, so he could only use
Money or his own cargo agent to satisfy them and let them give their share to him. Of course, before the economic crisis, Li Cong also purchased a large number of minerals, which also helped Li Cong a lot. If not for that, I estimate that he
It will take five or six years to integrate it, but of course this is a story for another day.
All other major forces in the world already know that Li Cong has taken over South Africa and has strictly controlled South Africa's gold exports. As for diamonds, Li Cong has no desire to control them. It is better to leave them casually. After all, it is a luxury.
Taste.
The attitude of the major forces towards Li Cong made Li Cong very satisfied. These guys knew that it was impossible for Li Cong to spit out the meat he had eaten. From the time Li Cong began to rise in the world to now
, this guy is like a tiger, looking for trouble everywhere and expanding his power everywhere. As long as anyone has any trouble with him, he will be in trouble.
On the one hand, Li Cong is difficult to offend, but on the other hand, there is nothing important in South Africa. This is not the era of heavy metal. Gold is something that can be had or not. Besides, Africa is a chaotic place. He is willing to ask for it.
Just give it to him. The annual aid to Africa alone is estimated to be hundreds of billions of dollars. I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing to carry such a big burden.
Of course Li Cong is also aware of this matter. He has no intention of carrying the whole of Africa on his shoulders. Southern Africa is his original goal. Of course, he has just swallowed South Africa and he still needs to digest it slowly. Moreover, at this time
Unable to make any big noise, Li Cong decided to go all out to restore normal order in South Africa. As for other African expansion strategies, it would be better to temporarily suspend them.
The energy group has spent billions of yuan to recruit a group of economic experts from all over the world. Although they may not be of much use, they at least know a little more than an ordinary person. Let these people stay in South Africa for a long time, and it will take the shortest possible time.
South Africa is stable, and Li Cong doesn't want South Africa's economy to take off. That would be too conspicuous. He just wants it to be stable, because Li Cong just wants it to become his own private machinery base, not a gathering place for the dawn of the world.
When the economic experts came, it was time for Li Cong to go home. Recently, Li Cong felt that he was almost no longer Chinese. Anyway, the energy group had to keep a low profile for a while recently, and he could relax his life. Unexpectedly,
Before I could relax, an article in the News of the World put the energy group at the forefront of the storm.
The reason is that the News of the World exposed the energy group as the creator of South Africa's economic crisis. Originally, this was nothing. Soros was almost scolded to death by major newspapers back then, but he still lived his life normally. The blame is on this piece
The newspaper listed the energy group's new welfare package with a big headline: "The blood and sweat of the people of South Africa have become the blood of these vampires."
