Chapter 435 It’s Too Hard for Me
The Homo sapiens fleet appeared on the western coast of New Granada.
This incident not only made America feel uncomfortable, but also greatly shocked the Redwood Federation and Pampas who were trying to unite.
Many forces in Latin America are now very aware of the special relationship between Shamrock and Sapiens.
Now the Cloverleaf Oak is entrenched in the Silver Triangle, controlling a considerable territory in the chaotic area between the Redwood Federation, New Granada , and Little Venice.
This is basically a semi-public thing.
America had organized several encirclement and suppression operations before, resulting in tens of thousands of special forces being swallowed up in the tropical rainforest.
Now, with the American media adding fuel to the fire, all forces know that Sapiens has brain chips and the means to control insects.
Fighting guerrilla warfare with Homo sapiens in the tropical rainforest is like trying to do carpentry in front of Lu Ban - showing off one's skills in front of an expert.
At this time, the arrival of the Homo sapiens "commercial escort" fleet was actually to establish a real regional full-power branch to prevent the South American branch from being in an underground state.
After all, as long as we operate underground, there is no way to absorb more employees or carry out large-scale industrialization.
Shortly after the Homo sapiens fleet arrived in New Granada.
Wu Wei, head of the external business unit, flew to the capital of the Redwood Federation.
Louis, who had just come up at the end of the previous year, was personally greeting Wu Wei at the airport. He looked at Wu Wei getting off the Phoenix plane with a forced smile on his face.
After all, Sapiens and America have made great contributions to the tragic plight of the Redwood Federation in recent years.
America plays with capital controls and financial harvesting.
Sapiens plays Jungle Wars and Creature Strike.
Now the Amazon rainforest area of the Redwood Federation is basically completely out of control and is firmly controlled by the gangs under the Three-Leaf Oak.
Although he hated the tyranny and recklessness of the Homo sapiens company in his heart, he still had to face the arrival of Homo sapiens rationally. This is the sadness of the weak.
"Welcome Mr. Wu to visit the Redwood Federation."
Wu Wei smiled and hugged the other person: "I am also very honored to be a guest of the enthusiastic Redwood Federation."
Then they took a photo together.
Then the two of them took a car to the building for the meeting.
In the magnificent hall.
After a few minutes of greetings, Louis cautiously probed : "Your company's cooperation with New Granada this time seems to be very powerful!"
"Of course, we will be investing fully in New Granada."
What Wu Wei meant was that the Sapiens Company wanted to operate New Granada as its "homeland".
As expected, Louis immediately became alert in his heart, but he smiled and asked, "That's really good news. I wonder if your company has any plans to invest in other parts of Latin America."
Wu Wei asked back: "Mr. Louis, what do you think you can change? It is easy to help tens of millions of poor people achieve food and clothing, but it is very difficult to help tens of millions of poor people achieve food and clothing for a long time."
Smart Louis certainly knew what Wu Wei was talking about, but he also didn't want to completely turn to the Sapiens company because that would be very dangerous. The Sapiens company is a ruthless company.
“I personally hope that your company can invest in the Redwood Federation, but the chaos in the Amazon rainforest is not conducive to your investment.”
Wu Wei nodded: "Okay, I will contact the head office and approve a special aid fund for the Amazon region."
Louis obviously compromised.
He knew that he could not protect the Amazon region, and he also had some thoughts of giving up on himself. After all, the population of the Redwood Federation was very large, and the internal food production and trade were controlled by ABCD.
Although Homo sapiens has repeatedly manipulated locusts to attack the agricultural areas of the Redwood Federation in recent years , most of the severely damaged areas are farms under ABCD, and ordinary small farms are not a big problem.
Louis' compromise was to let the Sapiens Company let the Redwood Federation go at the expense of the Amazon rainforest.
Wu Wei did not embarrass the other party on this point. He continued: "The reforms you have made will basically not have much effect at this stage. Why don't you try a new idea?"
Louis certainly knows that his plan is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. In fact, due to the deterioration of the international trade environment and the sharp decline in foreign exchange reserves, it may even be difficult to solve the symptoms.
However, he did not hold out much hope for the new plan of Homo sapiens. Unless they fully turned to Homo sapiens, the Homo sapiens model would be difficult to promote.
"Of course, I won't force you to use our company ."
That's good. Louis secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly smiled and asked, "Do you have any good plans?"
"It's very simple. Why don't we completely open up the market? We should trust the self-regulation ability of the free market."
Damn it!? Louis' eyes widened. Completely open up the market? Still believe in the self-regulating ability of the free market?
It's not like he doesn't understand economics. Once the market is completely opened up, the products of America, Sapiens, and Europa will flood in, and the already severely damaged industry of the Redwood Federation may be completely wiped out.
"Louis, there is an old saying in the East that if you give, you gain. To gain something, you always have to give up something."
“…” Louis frowned.
He was thinking about the consequences of fully liberalizing the market. With the industrial cost-effectiveness of the Sapiens Company, it would definitely be able to squeeze the products from America, Europe, and the Far East out of the Redwood Federation market.
According to his understanding, ABCD's global food trade is very sluggish, and their food production in North America is already in serious oversupply.
Recently, the situation in South Asia has also turned to Zhiren Company. Now ABCD only has the Northeast Asian market and the European market.
Obviously, South America, a grain-producing area, has become a competitor to North America at this stage.
If the market is fully opened to the Sapiens company, ABCD's investment layout in the Redwood Federation will fall apart. After all, as a capital company, the purpose of their investment in agriculture is to make a profit.
But Homo sapiens can lower the price of food to a level lower than the production cost of ABCD, which would make the game unplayable.
We can't maintain the scale of cultivation at a loss!
If it is a short-term loss, ABCD and America behind it can hold on. The problem is that this kind of loss is now very likely to become a bottomless pit.
Which capital company would be willing to continue investing in an investment without expected returns?
Lewis knew full well that the free market was best for Homo sapiens.
But if he does not open the market to Homo sapiens, he will be unable to do anything to ABCD, and may even be targeted for elimination by America, not to mention leading tens of millions of poor people out of poverty and into prosperity.
Obviously, the solution of Homo sapiens is a sweet candy. It looks very sweet, but if you eat too much, it will not only cause dependence but also cause diabetes.
On one hand, it was harvested and controlled by America, and finally it couldn't bear the burden and exploded.
On one hand, they are being harvested and controlled by Homo sapiens companies, and may eventually be swallowed up.
Louis said: It's so difficult for me.
There is actually no difference between the two choices. If he chooses America now, when the Redwood Federation economy collapses, the Sapiens Company can take advantage of the situation.
Unless America is willing to fully support the Redwood Federation so that the per capita income of the Redwood Federation can reach the threshold of developed countries, otherwise it will die!
And Louis was not unaware of America's true colors. Latin America had been harmed by America for more than a hundred years and had been unable to develop.
Investing in the United States is not as good as investing in Homo sapiens. After all, if you rely on Homo sapiens, you will definitely have no problem in enjoying a good life. As for Homo sapiens wanting to implant chips in its employees, this matter is a matter of opinion.
He weighed the pros and cons for a while, and finally agreed to Wu Wei's free market plan. After all, he could make a profit by doing this.
As for the possibility that the Redwood Federation might turn into the shape of Homo sapiens in the future, Louis chose to lie low. Anyway, he couldn't always dominate the Redwood Federation. At the same time, he didn't have many years left to live, so he didn't care what happened in the future.
