【Chapter 457: Tripolarization?】
After the whale shark appeared in the world, the ASEAN countries were collectively silent, and it might be more appropriate to describe it as collective tremor.
If the Republic expands its naval power in the waters of South China, these Southeast Asian countries may be very sensitive and take this opportunity to expand their arms to deal with it. When facing the absolute power of the Whale Shark, the ASEAN countries have no sense of resistance. It is obvious that the northern superpowers, whether they are comprehensive national strength, economic scale, scientific and technological industry level and manufacturing system will completely outperform the total of the 11 Southeast Asian countries.
When you show your invincible power, your opponent has given up the idea of resistance from the bottom of your heart.
Faced with whale shark and arc fighter, such absolute overlords under the sea, some pro-American countries in Southeast Asia, led by the Philippines, felt that even Americans were not reliable for the first time.
The person who is most excited in Southeast Asia at this moment is Halim. When he saw the appearance of the Whale Shark, he knew that the Whale Shark had entered the Southern Fleet, no one in Southeast Asia was more excited and relieved than him.
He could finally conclude that he was not wrong in taking the team this time, and the possibility of losing this big bet is basically extremely small.
The most direct manifestation is that Wall Street economic analysts have made new adjustments to the future trend of the Malaysian economy.
The influence of this incident has spread to the world. The "polar bear" with faraway sky and faraway places. Russia, which does not have much interests or disputes in Southeast Asia, has not given up the opportunity to attack the United States. It is more of a sarcasm and fanning the flames.
The mainstream Russian media reported this: "What can be seen is that the final result of the American wishful thinking ‘Asia-Pacific Rebalancing Strategy’ will be declared bankrupt, and the United States' dream of dominating the Asia-Pacific region is about to be broken..."
Matrix Technology, Headquarters.
Kang Tao met Ren Hong again, and immediately said when he met: "The world has been chaotic recently, especially this 'polar bear' has not forgotten to fan the flames, and there are many people who are taking advantage of the troubled waters."
Ren Hong chuckled and said humorously: "Southeast Asia and the Pacific are hot, and the 'polar bear' doesn't like it here."
Kang Tao nodded slightly: "Yes, the Russians do not have much benefit in Southeast Asia. At most, they can just sell a few old warships to the ASEAN countries."
"But the recent situation is quite intriguing," Kang Tao said.
"Oh?" Ren Hong looked at him.
Kang Tao said slowly: "More than one polar bear is fanning the flames. Recently, many countries are marveling at the Republic's soaring comprehensive national strength, and are also conveying remarks about the United States' recession."
"Praise us?" Ren Hong said with a smile.
"Maybe you don't know yet," Kang Tao said: "Just when the whale shark appeared, the Russians immediately announced restrictions on the transport of important resources such as natural gas and oil to my country, raising prices greatly, and some reasons are difficult to hold. Another thing is that this 'polar bear' has been closer to the EU recently."
"When I got the stones on Mars, any natural gas and oil were just garbage things, and I don't think it was a bad thing." Ren Hong said indifferently.
Kang Tao did not deny it, and then analyzed it on his own: "The global pattern is unpredictable, the republic is getting stronger day by day. Russia in the north is essentially unwilling to see this scene. Now the 'estrangement' is also being cleaned up. After the end of the Cold War, the pattern of two-level differentiation in the world has become a monopolar world dominated by the United States, and then a global multipolar pattern that continues to this day."
He looked at Ren Hong and said, "The Republic is becoming increasingly powerful, and the current multipolar pattern may be broken."
"What do you mean?" Ren Hong asked.
"According to the information I learned from the above, the capital believes that the global landscape in the future may change from a multipolar trend to a tripolar world." Kang Tao said: "That is, the United States, the Republic, other countries. Europe is trying to take this opportunity to get rid of its dependence on the United States. The recent alienation of Russia has more or less explained some problems."
Ren Hong crossed his legs and leaned against the sofa: "I don't care about this matter if I am not in my position, and I am not interested in how the global landscape changes at all."
Ren Hong looked at Kang Tao and said with a smile: "Compared with these, I am more concerned about whether wars and conflicts between major powers will break out in the future."
"What do you think?" Kang Tao asked back: "As long as Americans refuse to give up their ambition to dominate world hegemony, they will definitely not sit idly by and watch the rise of the republic. In other words, there will be a battle in the future."
"No one can say good about the future, but with the current situation, large-scale conflicts will not break out in the near future, and a full-scale war will not be possible." Ren Hong said.
"What do you mean?" Kang Tao asked.
"I am an entrepreneur, so I can analyze it from an economic perspective." Ren Hong smiled relaxedly and comfortably: "The current connection between globalization and integration in the world economy is closer than ever. In the words of leaders, today we are a community of shared future, and a global economy maintains the world. Moreover, Americans still have an unparalleled ace in their hands."
"Ace?" Kang Tao looked at Ren Hong curiously.
"Dollar!" Ren Hong said concisely, adding: "It is the US dollar. The world monetary system dominated by the US dollar under the Bretton Woods system. You have to admit that if there is a problem with the US economy, it is the world economy. Could it be that everyone can hold up their guns and cannons to bombard each other and blow up their respective 'houses', and finally, to save the world economy, we should buy US Treasury bonds together? Then build the blown house again? Thankless, there are only absolute losers and no winners when fighting."
"The new Cold War is impossible. The current global structure and complex economic system cannot be played like this." Ren Hong said. He thought for a while and said, "If I were an American... Since the above gameplay is not fun, I can only seek other ways. The most positive and effective way to play is to hold military science competitions, compete for real strength and real skills, then..."
Speaking of this, Ren Hong was stunned and his face changed slightly. He immediately went to work and contacted the group company eo Gao Yue: "Give instructions to ask senior engineers within the company to recall all the family members' travel abroad. In addition, please let the engineers under the company not go abroad to attend any seminars or seminars, and don't go to any awards. If you really want to have any technical exchanges, let them come to our company to discuss the budget, let our company bear it, and remember to bring bodyguards when they go back to the mainland and travel in a low-key manner. To emphasize to them, the engineers of our company are the key concerns of foreign agents, well, that's it."
Ren Hong ordered one by one in front of Kang Tao, and after a while, he returned to his seat and said, "No surprise, agent activities will be more frequent in recent times. The confidentiality work of the 'Ming Axe Base' must be done well." Ren Hong smiled self-deprecatingly: "Hehe, my company is really fat in their eyes."
"By the way, Team Leader Kang, what's the matter with you coming to me?" Ren Hong asked immediately.
After chatting for a long time, Kang Tao almost forgot about his business and said, "That's right, there is an instruction from above. The purpose of the whale shark has been achieved. The current key task is to divert attention, especially the direction of world public opinion guided by media from various countries. In short, good things have been entangled for too long, but good things have turned into bad things. You can make a fortune in silence, haha!"
The world public opinion on the surface is full of uncontrollability and unpredictability. It is better to have a big power game in secret. If an accident occurs, it can be suppressed and controlled in a timely manner.
"How could I smell the scent of taking the blame?" Ren Hong looked at Kang Tao suspiciously.
"Haha, you really can only bear the blame." Kang Tao laughed and said, "You have made this problem happen. Who will you bear if you don't?"
"How to divert your sight?" Ren Hong said curiously. Obviously, he didn't mind taking the blame. Anyway, the "Eagle of Republic" has accumulated a good experience in this regard.
"Aren't you ready?" Kang Tao said.
"I don't quite understand what you mean." Ren Hong looked at the other person for no reason.
"Dinosaur!" Kang Tao said this word leisurely. (To be continued.)
