Chapter 280 Mr. Lu is thoughtful and far-sighted, and we have no objections
This oriental man is not a businessman at all, he is clearly a politician.
Shameless! No morals! This kind of person,
It's terrible! When I walked outside,
Jack immediately ordered his men: "Contact Joe in Cockburn City and tell them that Lu Wendong is no longer our target." "All operations are suspended."
Although the death of the Marines was a great pity, it also brought shame to the empire for a time.
but,
People need to look forward. The CIA has made a judgment.
Lu Wendong's control over the Dominican Republic is gradually deepening.
It is impossible for the Empire to launch a large-scale war against the Dominican Republic, otherwise,
It will cause international criticism. Most importantly,
Cuba next door will certainly take the opportunity to take action.
Small-scale attacks could turn into local wars. Although the military would be happy,
But Congress and the people will be unhappy because,
That would drag America into the quagmire! In this case,
The only option is to maintain the current situation!
In Lu Wendong's eyes, the Dominican Republic is a blank market! He plans to repeat the development trajectory of Hong Kong Island here!
Dominica does have this advantage! Firstly,
The Dominican Republic has a perfect demographic!
Its domestic population is mainly composed of young people aged 18 to 28, and the annual per capita income level is very low!
Only around $300!
What is the average annual income of Americans? At least 3.
No more than 6!
The difference here is simply huge.
The wage gap alone is enough to make American factory owners red in the eye, and most importantly,
The situation in the Dominican Republic has now stabilized, and
It is very close to Miami, USA! In other words,
For Lu Wendong,
The Dominican Republic is like Hong Kong Island in the 1960s. We can completely rebuild our manufacturing industry here.
And sold to the North American Free Trade Area.
Other than that,
Lu Wendong's main plan is to develop money laundering and tourism in the Dominican Republic. This country has a large area of excellent golden beaches.
and,
Because the Dominican Republic was the first springboard for Columbus to land on the American continent, the colonists left behind a large number of relics here.
right now,
These relics have become a kind of culture of the American continent, and many people are willing to travel here.
These are hard conditions.
What Lu Wendong needs to do is to improve the soft conditions. This is the first step.
Of course, we need to carry out large-scale infrastructure projects!
It's nothing more than water, electricity and roads!
this day,
The sky is clear,
Lu Wendong, as the Dominican Republic's special advisor, presided over a meeting on the development of the Dominican Republic. There were two rows of tables on the podium.
The first row is Juan,
The second row is Lu Wendong.
Lu Wendong's step is slightly higher, and the meaning is very clear.
Lu Wendong also spent quite a while in the Dominican Republic.
He knows the situation of the people here very well. If you are polite to these people,
They will actually think it's polite... So,
You must show your status intuitively. Now is good.
In this order,
Everyone knows that Mr. Lu is the real controller of the Dominican Republic!
When something big happens in the Dominican Republic, everyone knows who to call to take charge! "Everyone."
Lu Wendong said calmly: "The observation team from Hong Kong Island has been confirmed and will arrive in the next few days."
Lu Wendong also said these few days before, and it is still these few days now.
Politics,
That's it,
It is impossible to say it definitively. Everyone immediately became excited. These days,
Even if you want to be a corrupt official,
That requires people to have money.
Now many countries are extremely poor, even if they want to be greedy,
There is no place for everyone to be greedy. Otherwise,
How could Lu Wendong's $100,000 help Juan secure the position of ambassador to Hong Kong?
Even for the then President Joaquin, $100,000 was not a small sum.
"Before that, our countries must finalize their corresponding national plans." Lu Wendong said solemnly, "It's just like welcoming guests."
"If you want the guests to stay, you have to clean the house at least." Everyone's heart suddenly trembled.
In recent days, the new special investigation bureaus in many countries have shown their claws.
As soon as they took action, they arrested all the senior executives of BT Commercial Bank.
If Mr. Lu had not publicly stated that he would cover the losses for BT Commercial Bank,
I'm afraid this bank will be run and go bankrupt! By then,
That was a serious economic accident!
"Here, we have to solemnly perform Director Sun of the Investigation Bureau."
Lu Wendong said: "He promptly discovered the fraudulent activities of a group of senior executives of BT Commercial Bank and recovered the losses for the general public."
The voice just fell,
Juan was the first to applaud, and everyone looked at him.
They all applauded enthusiastically. Lu Wendong nodded with satisfaction.
This means that everyone has reached a consensus.
This BT Commercial Bank will then become Mr. Lu's property, which is the result that the Dominican people have been eagerly waiting for!
“Currently, half of the country’s population is engaged in agriculture.”
Lu Wendong followed up, "Everyone, the people are suffering. As officials, you should think more about the people in your daily lives." Everyone felt a little ashamed.
I never expected that
These words actually came from the mouth of Mr. Lu, an outsider. "Of course, everyone wants to be rich~`."
Lu Wendong was not interested in condemning these people from the Dominican Republic at this kind of meeting.
If these guys were honest,
That is the most troublesome thing.
Lu Wendong continued, "Currently, 52% of our Dominican Republic's territory is forest, 20% is pasture, 26% is arable land, and 2% is nature reserve." "Agriculture is primarily sugarcane, but we also produce coffee, cocoa, rice, bananas, and livestock."
The Dominican Republic has large areas of tropical forests and arable land, which are very suitable for developing agriculture and animal husbandry.
In addition, the highest peak in the mountain area is over 3000 meters above sea level.
No ice, plenty of rain.
The annual rainfall is as high as 400-4000 mm, with an average annual rainfall of 1500 mm.
Very suitable for the development of fruits and other forest products.
Lu Wendong then added: "The agricultural production structure is still weak, and we need to increase the variety of crops." Currently, the main crops in the Dominican Republic are rice and red beans.
The largest agricultural exports are sugar, coffee, cocoa, and cigars. The industrial structure is indeed very homogenous!
For Lu Wendong,
What a waste! Where is the Dominican Republic near? Miami!
Beyond that is the huge consumer market of America! But they only have rice and red beans?
No shortage!
So what is America lacking? Fruits and vegetables!
There is a giant company in South America.
It is now called United Brands, formerly United Fruit!
This company is Lu Wendong's predecessor,
In the United States, they support agents to come to power in order to gain political support and large tracts of farmland!
What's it used for? Growing bananas!
That's right,
United Fruit's main cash crop is bananas, just one thing.
This made United Fruit the dominant company in the Americas!
So why can United Fruit grow it, but I can't?
Lu Wendong said firmly, "Next, we in the Dominican Republic must launch a fruit campaign. Among them, bananas, oranges, tomatoes, and avocados are the most important."
Bananas, oranges, and tomatoes are very popular in America and they don't need any advertising.
As long as there is production,
There will definitely be someone to come and buy it.
Why does Lu Wendong need someone to buy him out?
The company under his name is engaged in trade.
They just package and sell all the fruit from the Dominican Republic.
What is this trick called? Franchise!
Lu Wendong learned this from the foreigner again! Back then,
The way the foreigners govern Hong Kong Island is very simple.
It categorized all the export rights of Hong Kong Island and then gave them to major foreign companies in the form of monopoly. For example, Jardine Matheson, Swire, Wheelock and other foreign companies,
The reason why it can rise,
It is because they hold the corresponding franchise.
It is impossible for the foreigners to occupy all the areas, otherwise,
The Chinese will definitely resist. So,
At the same time, the foreigners also divided the Chinese into north and south.
It was stipulated that the Nanbeihang Bank could conduct certain types of business with mainland Chinese and overseas Chinese, such as grain and oil.
In general,
The foreign companies took the lion's share.
Chinese people eat small heads.
There is always money to be made. When I was in Hong Kong Island,
Lu Wendong hated the behavior of the foreigners! But after arriving in the Dominican Republic,
He had to admit that there was a reason why Britain, the troublemaker, could become the empire on which the sun never sets. Their colonial rule system was already very mature!
If we had not jumped out of the two great empires of the United States and the Soviet Union,
If it weren't for these two gangsters promoting democracy and independence around the world,
With this system of rule, Britain, this troublemaker, will continue to be the empire on which the sun never sets!
Lu Wendong is a person who never shy away from taking things from others. As long as it is beneficial to his rule,
Meat and vegetarian,
Mr. Lu didn't mind. "Sir."
One person stammered, "Banana is a United Fruit industry." Although United Fruit has changed its name to United Brands,
but,
Americans still habitually call it United Fruit.
Lu Wendong said expressionlessly: "How? Can United Fruit gather a large army to attack our Dominican Republic?" If United Fruit still has this kind of power now,
That's what Lu Wendong really wants... According to Lu's estimation,
The most United Fruit could do is send people to the Dominican Republic to carry out some subversion or assassination. Hey!
For Lu Wendong,
That was a real blessing. Everyone immediately thought of it.
Mr. Lu himself has powerful weapons in his hands. Recently,
Still presiding over the guard change!
In fact, it seems that Mr. Lu is also replacing the army at the same time! Everyone was suddenly awed.
The Coast Guard alone is terrifying enough, and with the assistance of Louis, the Defense Commander,
And this replacement army!
Speaking of,
Mr. Lu has already taken control of the Dominican Republic's national defense forces! So why would I object?
Now,
Everyone changed their tune: "Mr. Lu is very thoughtful and far-sighted, and we have no objection."
Lu Wendong nodded. "Agriculture is the foundation of a country. While ensuring that our people have enough to eat, we must also create economic benefits." "That's settled."
The officer immediately recorded it!
Mr. Lu's will is the will of the Dominican Republic. After the meeting,
The record will be passed directly to the House of Representatives and will then become the government's policy agenda.
no way,
Dominican Republic,
Take Lu Wendong as the most important!
