Chapter 721 Two bullets

Originally, if Taiwanese businessmen were in the previous life, they had mastered the ability to design and brand in the electronics industry, and the mainland was responsible for low-end production and assembly, and Taiwanese businessmen gained a lot of wealth from cheap labor in the mainland, which was really a good way to make money. 1. * But I didn't expect that with the rapid rise of electronic companies such as Nebula Electronics in this life, this division of labor model began to be seriously challenged.

As Yang Xing continues to use financial profits to feed back to real enterprises, the scientific research level within the group continues to rise after obtaining sufficient funds and external acquisitions. Now it can compete with many old multinational companies. 1. Nebula Electronics has successively launched a series of revolutionary electronic products, gaining extremely high credibility and brand loyalty in the industry. It has always liked OEM production, while Taiwan electronic manufacturers, which have little self-brand reputation, have fallen at a disadvantage. In addition, Nebula Electronics is close to the vast talents and market in the mainland, and has leveraged its management and cost advantages. Even in the OEM field, it poses a serious threat to traditional large manufacturers such as Foxconn and TSMC.

This time, Taiwanese manufacturers suddenly attacked themselves with the help of political power, and Yang Xing had long expected it. However, although he had close ties with domestic senior management, he believed that he was still quite secretive. He asked domestic intelligence agencies to deal with Taiwan several times. A long time ago, major intelligence departments took the initiative to clean up traces of Sino-Star exchanges with the upper-level domestic team, and cooperated with the military to implement extremely hidden single-line contact information. In addition, Yang Xing achieved the most important Soviet secret record in the history of intelligence, and only the highest leadership knew his secret identity.

This is also the main reason why Yang Xing has never refused to let Zhongxing headquarters go public. Because after he re-split the shares, both the domestic and Hong Kong governments became one of the major shareholders of Zhongxing Group. Strictly speaking, Zhongxing is also a semi-state-owned enterprise. This kind of thing cannot be rumored. After all, Western countries have a deep prejudice against Chinese state-owned enterprises. Therefore, Yang Xing established a large number of shell companies overseas tax-avoiding areas through Star Fund, and it made it very complicated to transfer Zhongxing equity, which is difficult for outsiders to get a glimpse of the truth.

For this reason, Yang Xing did not think that Taiwan's magical powers were so great that it could detect the secrets involved in him and the country. Otherwise, as long as a few were published, it would ensure that Yang Xing could not move forward in Europe and the United States.* His opponents could easily kill him if they mastered these secrets, and would not let him slaughter a large piece of meat so easily.

Lin Jiana explained to him that in addition to the current DPP in Taiwan's ruling, there is also a factor in the fact that Yang Xing's opponent Mellon and others were making trouble. At that time, Mellon wanted to embarrass Yang Xing in the United States, but was rebeled by Yang Xing and used racial conflicts and political bribery scandal to make Mellon's consortium frivolous. Frank Mellon was even forced to go overseas to calm public opinion, which was a shame. All this was caused by the report of Brown, an intelligence analyst who had been on the bench for many years. Fortunately, the CIA focused on the war on terrorism at that time, and did not pay enough attention to this report that added many subjective speculations and imaginations, which allowed Yang Xing to escape.

Later, when Mellon launched a media counterattack, he attacked the attack based on this report. Fortunately, Yang Xing took the initiative first and used new media such as the Internet to question the authenticity of the report. He also spent a lot of money to recruit Brown into Yu Aojun's intelligence analysis company in the UK, asking him to issue an apology statement. Public opinion made a joke about the claims that Zhongxing Group had an affair with Chinese senior executives in Brown's report, and did not continue to investigate.

But the Western right-wing forces, full of Cold War mentality, refused to give up. They always like to catch up with the situation. Moreover, although Yang Xing concealed it ingeniously, many of the speculations in the report were still true. As his reputation grew internationally, various negative propaganda followed one after another, saying that he was a "traitor to the dictatorial government" and the remarks of "red capitalist" never subsided.

Since the Democratic Progressive Party came to power in Taiwan, it has shown a strong tendency to "de-Sinicize". In education, Chinese history has been changed to foreign history, and culturally advocated the replacement of Mandarin with Minnan, and clamored for the fallacy of Taiwanese culture over Chinese culture. In politics, it is even more small. Today, it wants to enter the United Nations and tomorrow it will deny the "1992 Consensus". Abolishing the "National Union Assembly", the image of the Democratic Progressive Party's practice of eroding cross-strait relations is called "cut sausages". Pieces of sausages look thin and do not have much impact, but they accumulate little by little. Once the quantity changes, there is a danger of "**".

However, it is obvious that the DPP government has a good job in political struggles, but it is obviously an amateur in economics. The government is hostile to cross-strait economic exchanges and feels that Taiwanese businessmen who invest on the other side are "unpatriotic", and often labels "selling Taiwan" to politicians who promote "three connections" across the Taiwan Strait. They also replace the unpopular Lee Teng-hui government's "urgent and endurance" economic policy with the slogan of "active opening and effective management", implements strict restrictions, and advocates the "southward" strategy to turn Taiwanese businessmen to Southeast Asia.

However, these economic confrontation measures with the other side are very expensive and have little effect. After all, the economic strength of the two sides of the Taiwan Strait has gradually expanded. China's economy has been operating at a high speed for many years, with complete infrastructure, and a large number of well-educated cheap labor. It is the first choice for major multinational manufacturing companies in the world to outsource production. Accepting outsourcing OEM is also the strength of Taiwanese companies. The DPP government's wishful thinking attempt to ban Taiwanese businessmen from investing on the other side and making so-called investment turn proves to be a castle in the air.

When the Democratic Progressive Party came to power in 2000, Taiwan's economic growth rate was 5.86%, but by 2001, Taiwan fell into its first economic recession in 50 years, with the economic growth rate negative growth that year. The Taiwan stock index fell from 10,393 points in the highest period in 2000 to the current longest point, and fell to 4,000 points in four years. The economic community was very dissatisfied with this and the calls for the declaration of the Democratic Progressive Party to be removed from power in the upcoming "Taiwan President" election were high.

In this case, the DPP government did not reflect on itself, but was more suspicious of pro-Mainland and companies with mainland backgrounds, which was almost in a panic. Mellon and others revealed part of Brown's report out of context to the government, which naturally aggravated their suspicion of Zhongxing Group, and made the group's efforts to open up the Taiwan market repeatedly frustrated, becoming a setback caused by the rare impact of the group since its establishment. Yang Xing understood the cause and effect, but he did not have many good ways to deal with the paranoid such as the ruling party in Taiwan who completely deviated from economic common sense. But now Lin Jiana talked about it, could she have any solutions?

Lin Jiana explained that although Taiwan believes that it is surrounded by the American boss and is cold to the mainland, Americans are relying on using Taiwan to restrain China's development. The United States' attitude is to acquiesce Taiwan to maintain "ununity and independence", increase pressure on China, and create some friction, rather than supporting the ** elements to go to war with China at all costs. This will inevitably lead to the United States being involved in a war between the two major powers, which has almost no winners. The United States cannot tolerate the current Taiwan leader slipping further and further along the ** path, and even deliberately provoking friction between China and the United States.

In recent years, the DPP government has not recognized the situation and fantasized about the establishment of the country with the support of the Americans, and frequently created crises. However, Americans knew that when the founding of New China was the daring to fight with the Americans in Korea. Now it involves the core interests of Taiwan, and it is clear that it has drawn a red line to tell the world that the day of the war is the beginning of the war, and there is no room for compromise.

Recently, the Chinese side has unveiled a lot of "trump card" weapons. The Americans don't say it, but they are deeply afraid of it. Moreover, most of the US military is still trapped in Afghanistan and Iraq, and its strategic focus is not in East Asia at all. As a world policeman, the United States has interests all over the world, so there is no need to tear apart with China for the sake of Taiwan, the island.

For this reason, some people in the United States want to step down the DPP in this election, but the democratic election must consider the complexity of public opinion. Although the DPP's four-year rule has been a mess and has left a lot of political and economic bad debts, it is still supported by loyal people who believe in green in southern Taiwan, saying that they should support Ah Bian1, no matter how they are flat.

However, the Kuomintang, as an opponent of the DPP, has little obvious advantages in the election. After the party, which has ruled Taiwan for many years, failed in the last election, it still cannot get rid of the "boss" problem. It has many oppositions to the DPP's policies, but has few constructive opinions. Most of the supporters of Deep Blue are citizens of northern cities, and were ridiculed by the media for being unable to cross the "Tanshui River".

In this case, the number of votes for the blue and green parties is very close, and the election battle is in a stalemate. It is not possible that the DPP can continue to rule. Some people in the United States want to do something secretly, either creating a scandal to crack down on the DPP’s support rate or simply killing the candidates directly. So some people hinted that Lin Jiana and the others were mercenaries to do this. Lin Jiana felt that this might be beneficial to Yang Xing, so she did not explicitly refuse. She wanted to ask Yang Xing what she meant.

Who knew that Yang Xing's expression changed drastically after hearing the scene, and he answered firmly: "You are fooled. This is a trap set by someone. I knew that the opponent would not admit defeat so easily. It turned out that I planned to plot against them, and they had already dug a trap and asked me to jump. If you really want to do it, we will be done. It's so vicious!"

He had to tell Lin Jiana the "two bullets" case on the last day of the confusing Taiwan election in his previous life. The polls of the Green Camp campaigners in that election were always behind in the Blue Party, but the day before the election, when the candidate delivered a speech on the street, the march convoy was suddenly shot by two bullets. The candidate claimed to be injured and was hospitalized. The DPP took the opportunity to make a big fuss about this incident, urging votes while accusing the Blue Camp of instructing people to commit crimes.

The DPP also used this emergency as a pretext to demand that in order to maintain social stability on the voting day, a large number of military and police personnel were sent to the streets to guard against their return home to vote. As a result, ** was re-elected only with a slight gap of more than 20,000 votes, which made the Kuomintang extremely dissatisfied. It believed that the case had many problems and involved election cheating. It asked for a thorough investigation many times, but it was finally unable to turn things around, which was called the "March 19" shooting in history.
