Chapter 249 Ten steps and one count
After the special program ended, everyone in the room was silent for a long time, and the discussion started when the two children started to make a fuss because of their quiet nature.
"The show is done well, and I guess it will cause a sensation soon. Then our battery will stand up this time."
"Although I haven't given much special introduction, I have only charged 5 times in total after running this more than 10,000 kilometers. The charging time is no more than 3 hours. It is really a very successful one."
After hearing Ye Zhou's words, Chen Hao nodded.
"Yes, it depends on the overall public opinion reaction now. After this test, the battery performance has basically been confirmed, and our subsequent plans will also start."
"Well, I'm very curious now about what the Ugly and Island countries will react. They should be able to feel the sense of crisis? Will something big happen?"
"Not going."
Chen Hao replied firmly.
"Before this, we have laid sufficient groundwork for this release, including Mao Wang, and will also speak up internationally to support us. I think they cannot make any big moves at this time."
"What if they suddenly go crazy?"
"This is not a question of whether to go crazy or not. The decisions of the state do not exist, because every decision is not made by an independent individual."
"From the current situation, no matter from which angle, the best choice they can make is to accept reality."
"This is a game, and it is also a condition we have to accept."
"Either accept reality and bear small losses; or, everyone will be completely done together. As long as their leader is still a rational person, it is impossible to make other choices."
Hearing this, Ye Zhou's hanging heart finally let go of some.
Since Chen Hao told him about the major deployment around sulfur silicon batteries, his heart has never been relieved. Even after witnessing the elephant walking in the air with his own eyes, he is always worried about another possibility.
But fortunately, judging from the official confident reaction represented by Chen Hao now, the possibility he was worried about should not have happened.
Thinking of this, he spoke:
"Since you have cut off all the possibility of each other turning over the table, then finish this game."
On the other side of the sea, the Office of Strategic Analysis.
Johnson had read all the reports, and at this moment, his face turned pale.
This is the third time. Just like the chips and Aeroengines in the previous two times, they once again misjudged the opponent's true intentions!
The first time, our side thought that the opponent was doing the most was a 7n lithography machine, but the other side took out the 3nm lithography machine and slashed his face hard; the second time, our side thought that the opponent was doing the turbofan-18 improvement project, but in the end, we took out a giant commercial aviation engine with a 110-ton thrust. Not only did we win the initiative in the international aviation engine market, we even began to attack the airworthiness license with obvious tricks and guns.
Not to mention the series of achievements that emerged after aerospace engineering technology feeds back to the military industry.
The H-20, the J-20 and J-16 were replaced, and they were still hiding in their hands. I don’t know what other projects they have.
The original situation of the opponent's disadvantage in the balance was completely broken, and they even had a vague take the initiative.
And this time, the other party's appetite became bigger and bigger, and it actually pointed directly at the energy market!
Although the energy density of a 400wh/kg battery and a 1000wh/kg battery seem to be only twice the difference, these are actually two completely different things!
The former only slightly accelerates the popularization of new energy, while the latter will directly destroy the entire old energy order!
This is something they can't accept.
But if you don’t accept it, what can you do?
Johnson frowned, and after a moment, he spoke:
"Report the latest situation."
The analyst on the side also suffered a crushing defeat. After hesitating for a few seconds, he opened the pad in his hand and started to cast the screen.
"Mr. Johnson, this is the situation we are facing now."
"First of all, our strategy of hedging oil prices through the price of raw materials has completely failed. The other party's new battery uses not sulfur lithium technology at all, but sulfur silicon technology."
"This technology is more complex and advanced than sulfur lithium technology, even to the point where our existing technical level cannot solve the pretreated silicides in it."
"So, for this reason, we have not thought about this aspect before, nor have we made any preparations."
"Now, Aozhou's greenbushese company has begun to protest to us, because after the release of China's sulfur silicon battery, the demand for raw lithium in the international market fell, and they have raised prices at this point in time and they have suffered a lot of losses. I hope we will compensate."
Hearing this, Johnson's face showed a sneer.
compensation?
hehe.
You can ask Huaxia for compensation.
"You keep going."
The analyst coughed, glanced at Johnson's face, and continued:
"The international oil prices are plummeting at present. According to our estimates, it is likely that in the very short period of time in the future, the oil futures prices in the latest period will fall below positive numbers, just like what we encountered last time."
"Because of this situation, the stocks of several domestic shale oil companies have also plummeted. This plunge is transmitted to other fields. Our Nasdaq has fallen deeply for several consecutive days, and this trend is still expanding."
"The senior executives of several giant companies have joined forces to put pressure on us. Mr. Johnson, this pressure will likely fall on us."
Johnson was stunned for a moment. He remembered the ending of his office owner and couldn't help but feel a surge of fear in his heart, but then he thought that he was a former Marine who had really sold his life for the country, and no one would have done such a crazy thing.
Of course, if there is really a day, you can only rely on yourself.
It's time to wipe the gun at home.
Seeing that Johnson was not interrupted, the analyst continued.
"The worst situation is more than these two. In the oil field, our initiative has almost been eroded."
"The other party has negotiated an agreement with Iran in advance. They first made money by selling futures orders, and then purchased a large amount of crude oil in the spot market. Now, they are the largest oil dealer in the entire Central Asian region."
"The market that we originally controlled has now fallen into their hands."
"In addition, Africa is not optimistic that sudan has passed the first round of voting. Basically, they have determined that they will obtain the operation and development rights of the sudan oil field."
"Once this oil field really falls into their hands, it means that they can control more than 40% of the world's oil source, and our currency-oil system will collapse soon. At that time, the domestic economic situation may cause major problems."
"The most terrifying thing is that they even negotiated the cooperative management rights of a military port in Sudan. They will jointly operate this military port with Mao Xiong to ensure the safety of the oil route from Sudan to China."
Hearing this, Johnson's expression had changed from anger to helplessness.
This is the real ten-step calculation.
Before the other party released the battery, they had almost made all plans. Their initial purpose was not to have the battery at all, but to completely subvert the old energy system.
How scary is it that the opponent has laid such an outrageous foreshadowing in such a project where no one takes it seriously?
Is this what they have accumulated over thousands of years?
How can I compete with my country with only three hundred years of history?
After a moment of silence, Johnson asked:
"Where is silicon raw materials? Do we have the dominance of silicon raw materials? If possible, this is our last way to break the deadlock. Through the import restrictions on silicon raw materials, they can slow down their movements to a certain extent."
"Mr. Johnson, one month ago, they had already mastered 8 of the top ten silicon raw material manufacturers in the world, and then, within this month, they forcibly acquired two other companies."
All the roads were blocked.
Johnson pulled out a cigarette, but he was stunned for a long time and did not ignite it.
He couldn't think of any other way to break the deadlock, because the other party had already thought about everything he could think of, and had even arranged a backup plan.
Is there only the only way to overturn the card table?
If we really want to do this, will Congress agree?
He subconsciously looked at the analyst with an inquiring look, who almost instantly understood what he meant.
"Mr. Johnson, although I know you have always been radical, I really don't recommend doing this. This is a game. We have already lost. If we continue to increase the bet, we will only lose even worse."
Johnson was stunned for a moment, then suddenly woke up.
yes.
It's not ten years ago, twenty years ago.
In comparison with the current national strength, if you want to lift the table, you must also consider whether the weight of the table can be lifted up.
Twenty years ago, there were only some nuclear weapons on the table; ten years ago, there were large destroyers, aircraft carriers, and fifth-generation aircraft on the table; and now, there were strategic bombers, nuclear submarines, and even bears on the table.
Yes, Mao Bear was also begged to the poker table as a bargaining chip.
Poor fur bear—
No, it should be a lucky bear.
Their luck is that they can stand with a strongly rising nation at this time.
After pondering for a long time, Johnson finally raised his head.
He found the only solution in this case.
However, it is not that easy to come up with this solution.
He opened his mouth several times, and all the words he wanted were blocked. In the end, the analyst saw his intention.
The other party pursed his lips and said:
"Mr. Johnson, maybe, we can resolve it through negotiation."
"If our attitude is good enough, I think they probably wouldn't mind giving up some of the benefits, right?"
Johnson nodded silently.
A sense of absurdity couldn't be stopped in his heart.
When did the situation completely change?
From when did the people who whispered to pray for benefits at the negotiating table become themselves??
