Chapter 1479 The fewer words, the bigger the matter

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Let alone Delian, any European Space Agency official would be furious after hearing what Merlinz said.

    The reason is very simple. If Merlinz is to protect Europe's orbiting satellites, it is clearly a threat to Russia. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, no one knows better than the Europeans what kind of virtues Russia has.

    "If this were not the case, Europe would not have significantly reduced its military spending and increased welfare spending in recent years. Hasn't it seen through that Russia is a sick bear that can't even take care of itself, so how can it still have the capital to cause trouble?

    The problem is that it is one thing to know, but when the rebuttal comes to his lips, Delaine swallows it back. There is no way who can make Europe shorter than the free and beautiful room.

    "The complex entanglements and geographical factors here cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences. In short, all you need to know is that Europe's defense, economy, technology and even culture are heavily dependent on the free and beautiful space.

    Although after the end of the Cold War, Europe's awareness of autonomy increased, especially after the European Community was formed into the European Union, the euro was issued, and a unified European market was built.

    Some European elites with a strong sense of independence are dreaming of getting rid of their dependence on freedom and beauty and re-emerging as the core of the world.

    To achieve this goal, European countries have worked together, using the euro and advanced technology to fight against freedom and beauty on a global scale, and even once gained the upper hand.

    However, freedom and beauty are not vegetarians. A war in Kosovo directly ended the momentum of the euro's rapid development; the 2003 Iraq War directly nipped in the bud the plan to bind the euro to oil and become an international settlement currency.

    Coupled with the protracted subsidy dispute between Airbus and Boeing; the settlement exchange rate of financial services business; the authority of rating agencies and other issues, Europe and the United States have been old friends for many years. If it were any other relationship, they would have fallen apart long ago.  .

    But even so, Free and Beautiful, relying on its domineering power that reached its peak after the Cold War, has become increasingly tough on Europe. Because of this, Europe, which has felt pressure in recent years, has become increasingly difficult.

    For example, the "Galileo" satellite navigation system discussed this time did not have any expression at first. Coupled with the impact of the 911 incident on the Free and Beautiful Society, Europe felt that it could take the opportunity to develop in a subtle way.

    ¡°I didn¡¯t expect that the Free and Beautiful Room didn¡¯t have no ideas, but waited until Europe made substantial moves.

    After all, Free and Beautiful is a veteran at playing with ppt and fooling people. Free and beautiful, it is all about talk and no practice, and Free and Beautiful knows better than anyone else.

    Sure enough, when Europe launched its first navigation test satellite, Merlinz, a former executive of McDonnell Douglas, an international second-hand aerospace parts dealer, and now the vice chairman of the Space Affairs Committee of the Congress of the Free and Beautiful World, was in trouble.  They came to Europe and directly told Europeans that the "Galileo" satellite navigation system can be used, but all data information must be opened and then connected to the upgraded GPS3 satellite navigation system of the Free and Beautiful Room.

    This is equivalent to using the "Galileo" satellite navigation system as a backup system for GPS3.

    There are naturally many benefits for the free and beautiful room. For example, GPS3 does not need to spend high prices to launch redundant backup satellites; for example, after being strengthened by the "Galileo" satellite navigation system, GPS3's navigation accuracy will be higher and faster.

    However, for Europe, it is nothing more than a loss. Europe is not Japan, so why should we back up your free and beautiful space?

    Naturally, it was a polite rejection.

    Of course, in the face of the strength of the free and beautiful world, Europeans also have to make compromises on other issues, such as excluding a large eastern country from core technologies, opening up the frequency band module of the "Galileo" system, and providing  Special funds are allocated to study compatibility issues with GPS.

    This sort of solves the problems of the Free and Beautiful Room being made out of nothing. I thought that the Free and Beautiful Room could be a human being, but Merlinz, who had been a dealer in aerospace parts for many years, would not have been able to take off China if he had a bottom line as a human being.  The aerospace spare parts produced were resold to North Korea and Iran.

    So for Merlinz, as long as he can achieve his goal, it doesn¡¯t matter whether he is a human being or not!

    So after all the reasons and means were exhausted, Merlinz simply showed his cards and directly hit Delian's head with the big stick of intimidation.

    Delian was not a newbie in this field. Faced with Merlinz's condescending threat based on his strength, Delian, who had no countermeasures, could only calm down and said: "Mr. Merlinz, Russia is of course  It is a threat, but I don¡¯t think Russia will take much action at this stage, so what we need now is to consolidate the traditional friendship between Europe and the United States, especially in the aerospace field. After all, the world needs us, and we cannot do it forHe disregards his own selfish interests and the interests of billions of people around the world.  "

    Delian is indeed a well-known old fox in the European Space Agency. Translated into vernacular, who else dares to challenge the two of us?

    What should I do if the strength gap with the opponent is too big?  Wouldn't it be solved by joining each other and forming a team?

    This is how Europe has come step by step over the years. Although the overall situation is a bit frustrating, it has still given birth to large industrial companies covering Europe such as Airbus and European Defense, and has carried out projects such as the "Typhoon" fighter jet and the "European Joint Destroyer".  Deeper and broader cooperation.

    Because of this, taking a step back is not cowardice, but a strategic contraction. After all, Europe still has the euro, and its economic growth exceeds that of free and beautiful times. As long as the European market is fully integrated, European elites believe that it will surpass  America, once again becoming the center of the world, is just around the corner.

    Therefore, it is not impossible to compromise and give in on certain issues, but Delaine is very clear about core interests. Europe can make concessions and rule the world with freedom and beauty, but the issue of opening up the core data of the "Galileo" system  Don't even think about it.

    Merlinz has been a dealer in aerospace spare parts for so many years, but he still can¡¯t understand what Delaine means?  There is no expression on the face, but there is a slight smile in the heart. Europeans think they are on the second floor, but in fact they are on the fifth floor!

    Data, etc., is not something that can be easily obtained by means of free and beautiful space, so why bother with so much?  The key is the huge market of more than 300 billion US dollars behind the "Galileo" system. That is the real prey that Merlinz and the Wall Street capital behind it are targeting.

    So Merlinz pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "In this case, the data matter can be temporarily postponed, but the shares of the European Navigation Company that operates the 'Galileo' system must open at least 35% of the shares to regions outside Europe.  .¡±

    After hearing these words, Delian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. As long as the problem can be solved with money, it is not a problem. Furthermore, those core businesses in Europe do not have the shadow of Wall Street capital?  Opening 35% of the shares means opening 35% of the shares.

    But before he could agree, Merlinz added: "Except for North America and Latin America, we will be solely responsible for the navigation business operation rights of a large country in the East"

    As soon as Delian said these words, his eyes immediately burst out with anger. Of the US$300 billion global market for the "Galileo" system, a large country in the East accounts for US$120 billion, equivalent to 40% of the total. What a huge piece of fat.  , Merlinz is about to be cut off, and Delaine can't help but be angry.

    But in order to preserve valuable navigation data

    "Africa, the Middle East, as well as Southeast Asia and South Asia must be left to Europe. This is our bottom line!" Delane said through gritted teeth.

    "No problem! Who made us allies?" Merlinz smiled and nodded.

    In this way, the two of them cut the global navigation market like meat, piece by piece, just like they slaughtered the colonies back then, without any scruples.

    But just when the two of them were separated, satisfied with each other's achievements, and started to talk about some relaxed topics, an intelligence officer from the Free Beauty Room hurried in and whispered a few words into Merlinz's ear. Merlinz's whole body  I was startled, and immediately took the note from the other party, unfolded it, and read in just one sentence: "Xinx News Agency: Our country successfully conducted an anti-satellite test somewhere in the northwest on January 23, 2007."  , successfully destroyed a scrapped satellite in orbit, a complete success!"

    The fewer the words, the bigger the matter. Merlinz only took one look, and his whole body felt like he was struck by lightning!
