Great Power Technology - #583 - Chapter 574: Treat the other person in return

“So, Italy has frozen the bank account of the Maoqiu representative through its controlling bank?”

In Rongcheng, Ye Zhou looked at the latest report on the table, with an expression on his face that was both shocked and confused.

When he first saw the report, he even doubted its authenticity because he couldn’t understand how someone could do such a stupid thing at such a time.

What’s the use of freezing your bank card? Even if you are so powerful that you can freeze the opponent’s entire country’s financial system, what’s the use?

Everyone can see that this is a plan for the Taishang project, and for the Taishang project, it is aimed at the Chinese official.

Is there anyone who really wants to go against the current strongest Blue Star?

Without the support of ugly countries?

You know, in the Taishang project, the most active ones are the Ugly State officials. Relying on their long-term accumulated economic strength, they booked as many as 7 second-class seats at the beginning of the bidding, with an estimated investment of up to 600 billion US dollars. knife.

This is an extremely high premium. What they have to do is not only complete the technology application tasks assigned by China, but also thoroughly understand those technologies.

——

But no matter what the purpose is, at least their attitude is clear, that is, cooperation.

But now, a small idiot actually chose not to cooperate and chose confrontation.

Ye Zhou couldn’t figure out for a moment what they relied on.

Looking at Ye Zhou’s expression, Chen Hao nodded helplessly and replied:

“That is indeed the case. Moreover, according to the speculation of relevant intelligence agencies, freezing personal bank accounts is only the first step.”

“Next, they will attack corporate accounts and official accounts, and use means such as loan withdrawals, loan cutoffs, censorship, and whitelisting to restrict the economic activities of relevant countries.”

“Yes, their target is not just Maoqiu, but also every country they can reach.”

“But what’s the point of doing this? Small countries are not the main force in the project. The seats they participate in are highly replaceable. Even if we can’t find others, we can do it ourselves.”

Ye Zhou’s expression became more and more confused. According to his logic, even if he wanted to pose a threat to the project, he should concentrate his efforts on attacking a more important country, instead of dragging down a bunch of insignificant small countries like now.

“This is their purpose.”

“They are not trying to attack the project, they are trying to force us into submission.”

“In a head-on confrontation, it is impossible for them to take advantage of us or change our decision-making. Therefore, the only thing they can do is to put pressure on us through these small countries.”

“Haven’t you heard that joke? Why North Korea can protect itself is because whoever hits it will hit South Korea.”

“Now they are targeting anyone who wants to participate in the Taishang Project.”

“Even if the victims are only some small countries, the pressure of international public opinion caused by them is not small. When the time comes, if our decision-makers make misjudgments and leave loopholes in the handling, then they will have the opportunity to go further. “

Hearing Chen Hao’s words, Ye Zhou shook his head and replied:

“I don’t think we’re going to misjudge something as simple as this – what miscalculation could there be?”

Chen Hao’s expression became a little complicated. He did not answer, but asked:

“Do you think we haven’t misjudged it before?”

Ye Zhou was stunned for a moment. Only then did he remember the previous well-known public opinion incidents, and finally let go of his contempt for Yi Daili’s strategy.

But immediately, he felt something was wrong.

In the past, I would be led by others because the country was not strong enough. But now, everything is different. Can’t we still overcome all the tricks with one force?

He raised his own question, and Chen Hao simply asked him back:

“If a country resorts to force when facing disputes, do you think this country will have allies?”

Ye Zhou understood what he meant instantly.

When a knife is lifted and you don’t know where it will land, the best thing to do is to stay away from the hand holding the knife.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhou took a deep breath and then said:

“No matter what, we can’t ignore this matter, otherwise, our partners will quickly lose confidence in us – let’s solve the bank card problem first, at least so that they can spend money normally.”

Chen Hao hummed and handed Ye Zhou a piece of white paper with the preliminary coping strategy he had just written down on it.

“Look at these options, which one do you prefer?”

Ye Zhou took the white paper and looked at the writing on it, while reading his own comments.

“Direct communication is definitely not possible. Italy and Italy can find 10,000 formal and compliant reasons to deal with us. If we drag it back and forth, those representatives will starve to death.”

“It is not feasible to put pressure on banks. The banks involved do not have deep equity relationships with us. They do not even dare to listen to the official words of their own countries, let alone us – for them, these I’m afraid the value of public servants living abroad is not as important as the ten dollars in their pockets.”

“Provide temporary financial support. This is too cowardly.”

He shook his head, threw the white paper aside, and then said:

“The strategies you mentioned either take too long to implement or are not tough enough. If you ask me, we might as well solve the problem directly at the root.”

“The dividend period of RSA technology is about to end, and we should let go and squeeze out the last value of it.”

A few hours later, in a large shopping mall in the imperial capital.

Kasapa walked proudly on the way to the checkout counter, and the assistant behind him followed closely behind him, carrying large and small bags of merchandise.

He had just received news from the domestic rear that the bank accounts of several key figures previously identified had been locked and frozen. Theoretically, they could not even pay for the hotel now.

Kasapa even felt like he couldn’t help laughing when he thought of the scene where they stood at the front desk, swiping their cards one by one, and finally had to leave with embarrassed faces to go to the Chinese official for help.

——

No, this is a serious action and should not be treated with such a frivolous attitude.

——

But, it’s really funny.

They probably never thought that their first warning would come in this form.

Perhaps they also believe that if they offend a representative who is interested in profit, the negative impact will first spread from the country, right?

How ridiculous.

Kasapa considers himself an experienced chess player. Judging from his experience in confrontations with diplomats from other countries, the most effective way to influence a country’s strategy is not from the top down, but from the bottom up. And up.

In other words, target those on the front lines.

But after these people feel real pressure, the information they convey to the country will also be distorted. After step by step, it spreads like a wave, and its ultimate power cannot be underestimated.

And now what he is doing is such a thing.

Freezing bank cards is not a clever or covert strategy, but it is the most unsolvable and insidious strategy.

Modern people cannot live without money. If their connection with money is cut off, their lives in China will become particularly troublesome.

Kasapa looked at the assistant checking out at the cashier and remembered the righteous expression of the man named Pawang before, and finally laughed.

——

But soon, he stopped laughing.

The assistant in front was looking at him with pleading eyes, while the cashier had a look of impatience on his face.

Kasapa walked up to ask about the situation in confusion, and then, just five minutes later, he called a bank and asked angrily:

“Which of you has blocked my card??”
