At the same time, in Yinjiang City.
Fang Jianwei had already reported the news to Zhong Yi in advance before reporting the news that the Japanese troops were about to move in Shanghai to Chongqing, so Zhong Yi learned the news earlier than Principal Chang.
Zhong Yi drove to Jiangbei as soon as he learned the news.
At this time, Commodus happened to be at the legation in Jiangbei. Until now, Commodus has been serving as the United States¡¯ minister in Yinjiang, so he must stay in Yinjiang at least ten days a month.
It can be seen that Commodus still values ??Zhong Yi very much.
But then again, it¡¯s only natural that Commodus values ??Zhong Yi.
Because Kang Mude still points to Yinjiang Development Bank to make big money, and the expansion of Yinjiang Development Bank is inseparable from Zhong Yi.
After meeting, before Zhong Yi could speak, Kang Maode said: "Zhong, are you here about the Battle of Yinjiang? If so, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I can't help you with anything. I'm really sorry."
With the first sentence, Kang Maode kept Zhong Yi¡¯s next words in his stomach.
It¡¯s not that Kang Maode doesn¡¯t want to help Zhong Yi, but he really doesn¡¯t have the ability.
???????????????????? Isolationism is politically correct in the United States today. Even the president would not dare to do anything that goes against political correctness!
In addition, the Japanese government has also hinted that the United States will ensure the governance of the Yinjiang Industrial Zone even if it captures Yinjiang, just like they guaranteed the governance of the Public Settlement and French Concession in Shanghai.
The implication is that the Japanese army will not take over the Yinjiang Industrial Zone.
Zhong Yi had actually expected this, but when he heard Commodus say it with his own ears, he was still a little angry.
This is the nature of the American government. Guided by the banner of political correctness, even if they know it is wrong, they will still do it, even if they pay a heavy price for it.
??For example, isolationism has seriously damaged the overseas interests of the United States, but under the influence of political correctness or the so-called public opinion, no one dares to break this position.
However, Zhong Yi still refused to give up and said in a deep voice: "Commode, I think it is necessary to remind you that if the Japanese army really occupied the entire city of Yinjiang and only retained the industrial zone, then you American businessmen would invest in and build in Yinjiang. Many factories may go bankrupt because their product sales will be cut off.¡±
"There is nothing we can do about it." Commodus shrugged and said, "Since it is an investment, even God cannot guarantee that you will make money. Zhong, what do you think?"
Looking at Commodus shrugging his shoulders, Zhong Yi really wanted to slap them both in the mouth.
Regarding the position of Commodus or the US government, Zhong Yi can be said to have a clear understanding of it.
To put it bluntly, Commodus felt that Yinjiang was in danger of falling, so he decided to divide his eggs into two baskets. On the one hand, he continued to cooperate with Zhong Yi¡¯s Yinjiang Municipal Government, and on the other hand, he also began to show his goodwill to the Japanese government. Release a certain amount of goodwill. In this case, if the Japanese army really takes over Yinjiang, the interests of the United States can be guaranteed to the maximum extent.
In other words, Commodus and the US government actually want to strike a balance and play both sides.
Thinking of this, Zhong Yi became a little angry and said in a deep voice: "Commodus, it seems that your family does not want to continue publishing the stories behind Harry Potter and A Song of Ice and Fire."
"No, no, no, Zhong, you can't do this." Commodus suddenly became anxious and said repeatedly, "Regarding Harry Potter and A Song of Ice and Fire, you have signed an agreement with us."
Zhong Yi said: "It was your family that did not abide by the cooperation agreement in the first place."
"How could it be?" Commodus said, "We have been abiding by the agreement. After Congress made its decision, even my second grandfather personally came forward to lobby the senators, but you know, it was not enough to change anything. Our Commodus family still lacks a voice in the political field."
Zhong Yi said: "But don't tell me, you can't even convince a senator!"
"Of course this is not the case." Commodus smiled bitterly, "But, Zhong, what is the use of a senator? The voice he makes cannot represent the US government at all, and the Japanese will not care at all."
Zhong Yi said: "But what if this senator is McConaughey?"
"McConaughey?" Commodus frowned, "This guy is preparing to run for the next president. In order to win over voters, he will never do anything extraordinary at this time."
"There are many kinds of voters." Zhong Yi said, "McConaughey is hereWouldn't it be more beneficial to win the hearts and minds of the people by issuing a strong voice at all times, warning the Japanese government to ensure the safety of American citizens overseas? "
Kang Maode¡¯s eyes lit up and he said: ¡°Hey, it seems to be true.¡±
¡¡
It¡¯s already early morning in Connecticut, USA.
After dealing with the matters at hand, when McConaughey was preparing to go to sleep, the butler suddenly came in and reported: "Sir, old Mr. Commodus said he has urgent matters to see."
"Old Mr. Commodus?" McConaughey's expression condensed when he heard this.
Commodus Sr. is a well-known political broker in Connecticut. McConaughey's election as a Connecticut senator is closely related to the support of the Commodus family. More importantly, if McConaughey wants to go further and run for president, That would require greater support from the Commodus family.
At that moment, McConaughey said: "Please come in, old Mr. Commodus."
The butler agreed and turned around. McConaughey also quickly changed his clothes.
When McConaughey changed into formal clothes and came to the living room of the manor, old Commodus was already waiting there.
Old Commodus is over eighty years old, and his face is full of aging, as if he may die at any time, but McConaughey knows that there is a powerful soul hidden in this guy's body.
No one in Connecticut dared to despise old Commodus.
McConaughey quickly stepped forward and gave old Commodus a warm hug.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Commodus Sr. said directly: "McConaughey, what do you think your chances of winning are?"
McConaughey shrugged and said with a wry smile: "I think the possibility of me winning is less than one percent."
Old Commodus said: "In this case, you might as well find another way to win over some marginal voters outside the mainstream public opinion. This will at least allow you to persist until the last round. The president may not have much hope, but the secretary of state still has a chance."
McConaughey¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. If he could become Secretary of State, it would actually be completely acceptable.
Old Commodus added: "Tomorrow morning, you will hold a press conference and deliver a speech on Asian affairs, focusing on the upcoming Battle of Yinjiang, and then warn the Japanese government that they must unconditionally guarantee The safety of American citizens working or living in Yinjiang!"
