Chapter 0953 Don't use me as a bargaining chip

This proposal is beneficial to the World Economic Forum without any harm, and Claus Schwab certainly has no reason to refuse.

However, he was a little curious about the current Internet, in terms of information dissemination, compared with traditional media.

Tang Huan treated it as a chat topic and patiently explained: "Now, the theoretical maximum network speed for ordinary users to contact daily is the fastest LAN, which can reach 100 bits/; the wide area network is much slower, about 56 bits/ to 128 bits/; if wireless networks are included, the level of wireless LAN is about 1 bit/; as for 2g networks such as g, it is only 14.4 bits/."

"Our existing streaming media technology can achieve real-time and smooth radio broadcasting at d sound quality level on a 28bit/network."

"If the network bandwidth is further ideal, streaming media technology can achieve acceptable video transmission with acceptable quality, it will be no problem."

Klaus Schwab couldn't help but exclaim, "This streaming technology is so magical!"

"The principle is to be honest, it is actually simple." Tang Huan smiled slightly, "The media information is compressed according to a certain mathematical algorithm and is encapsulated into small information packets, rather than as a whole, and sent like flowing water; in this way, the client can play and receive it while playing it through the buffering mechanism, achieving an instant effect."

Speaking of this, Tang Huan turned to ask: "Now all companies and institutions are actively building the World Economic Forum on the World Economic Forum, do you have this intention?"

"Is it difficult to achieve?" Klaus Schwab asked back with interest.

Tang Huan laughed loudly, "I think it shouldn't be very difficult for me!"

Klaus Schwab shook his head with a chuckle, "I asked knowingly."

...

The richest man intends to slow down his itinerary in Europe, but the "Chang'an City" in the United States still heard news that shocked him.

After various activities, Li Denghui's trip to Cornell University in the United States was finally reached from June 7 to June 12, visiting Cornell University in the United States in the name of a private itinerary and delivered a public speech.

As a result, Li Denghui, who stopped on the west coast of the United States, went to Silicon Valley and visited a small company established by several entrepreneurs from Baodao Island. Then, even though the male owner was not at home, he still visited "Chang'an City" and said, "Mr. Tang is the son-in-law of Baodao and should walk around often."

Tang Huan couldn't help but swear in anger. This old guy was crazy about gaining fame and losing in order to successfully re-election!

In 1964, Li Denghui received a joint scholarship from the Rockefeller Agricultural Economics Association and Cornell University, so he went to Cornell University in 1965 to pursue a Ph.D. in agricultural economics. Until 1968, he obtained a Ph.D. in agricultural economics.

It is precisely based on this origin that Li Denghui started planning his trip to Cornell University last year. For this reason, he spent millions of dollars and hired a very energetic political lobbying company Cassidy to help him with public relations.

There are roughly three categories of political lobbying in the United States, namely, agent lobbying and indirect lobbying.

Direct lobbying is organizations such as the American Farmers Association, the American Manufacturers Association, the Rampage Association, etc. that charge membership fees and exist in the form of a membership system, which directly expresses itself in the interests of members and the industry or circle where members are located.

Agency lobbying means that customers pay to entrust public relations companies in the form of law firms, political PR companies, policy strategy companies, etc. to achieve their goals through a professional way and social relations network.

Indirect lobbying is to exert influence through public opinion, networking and other resources.

Cassidy, who Li Denghui invited for a high price, is an agent lobbying and plays an important role in the industry.

The company was founded in January 1975 and is headquartered in Washington. Its founder and boss Jared Cassidy served as chief legal counsel to the U.S. Senate Nutrition and Humanitarian Needs Committee from 1969 to 1973. From 1974 to 1975, it served as legal counsel to the U.S. Democratic National Committee.

There are countless complex "rules" in political lobbying, and Jared Cassidy naturally met the standards with his legal qualifications.

He brought some resigned American politicians to serve as backbone of the company and created four major lobbyists, including the White House press secretary Powell during the Carter administration; the defense official during the Reagan administration, Ford, an expert on China affairs of the Central Intelligence Agency; and the press secretary Ted of former US President Reagan’s wife Nancy.

With its deep special background, Cassidy Company has established close relations with the American academic community, major news media, and major civil society, which has exerted influence on US government officials and members of Congress.

The energy of Cassidy, which ranks among the top in the US public relations industry, can be seen from the tens of millions of dollars in turnover it generates, and these verbal lobbyists also have a lot of income. For example, Jared Cassidy has an annual salary of $760,000, while Powell has an annual salary of $480,000.

Last year, Li Denghui asked his confidant "big shopkeeper" Liu Taiying to establish the "Comprehensive Research Institute" known as the "Ministry of Underground Foreign Affairs", which was specially used to conduct public relations in the United States. As a result, he signed a three-year contract with Cassidy for $1.5 million a year to help him with his activities.

You should know that the representative of Baodao to the United States hires a public relations company in the United States, which is about US$80,000 a year.

This shows how hard Li Denghui has put in.

After Cassidy received the money, she began to do business for her employer and lobbyed the White House, the State Department, Congress, and especially exerted a key influence on US Congress members and their families and assistants.

In the end, Cassidy Company settled 76 senators and 37 members of the House of Representatives, and jointly invited Li Denghui to visit the United States; encouraged the Senate, and the House of Representatives passed bills separately, requiring the Collinton administration to agree to Li Denghui's visit to the United States; planned to publish editorials from more than 200 media across the United States to support Li Denghui's visit to the United States.

Originally, the US State Department, who knew China's attitude, strongly opposed it. Even US Secretary of State Warren Christopher once informally expressed to China that the US side did not support Li Denghui's visit to the United States; but it could not withstand the huge disturbances of Cassidy, so the US State Department, under pressure from Congress and media, submitted the approval of the hot potato to the White House, allowing President Bill Collinton to make a decision.

On May 22, the U.S. State Department announced that President Collinton agreed to enter the United States in the name of private visits and participate in the Cornell University Alumni Association activities as an outstanding alumni.

As a result, the practice of visiting the United States by the highest officials of Baodao Island in nearly 17 years has been broken.

After Li Denghui arrived at Cornell University, he even delivered a public speech entitled "What the people want is in my heart" and the purpose of this trip was achieved.

Tang Huan, who knew all this, originally wanted to watch the show, but never expected that Li Denghui suddenly went to his number one mansion and was immediately hyped by the media.

During the more than a year of activities, Li Denghui once said that he thought of the richest man's Silicon Valley territory "visiting"; this year, after confirming his attendance at Russia's "May 9" celebration, Tang Huan naturally declined.

Unexpectedly, Li Denghui actually made a fool of himself.

Tang Huan frowned and thought that this was going to cause trouble!

If you ask this world, except for Li Denghui himself, who else knows what he really wants to do, then Tang Huan must definitely be ranked first.

Just like Li Denghui’s “Treasure Island Son-in-law”, you might as well think about how much reputation can Tang Huan bring to the world’s famous daughters Deng Lijun and Lin Qingxia?

And this is just a superficial help; coupled with Tang Huan's steady operation in both political and economic circles for many years, it is not difficult to imagine how powerful the richest man is in the small treasure island.

Li Denghui must have quietly divided the parties he currently serves in, so he naturally has to crack any possible "adhesive".

Therefore, looking at the relevant information collected in his hand, Tang Huan, who had been in the martial arts world for many years, would not believe that Li Denghui ran to "Chang'an City" for a walk, but just to help him re-election and gain reputation, he must have a sinister purpose.

The high-tech industry is of great significance to the Baodao economy, especially the source of foreign exchange. Tang Huan's investment almost started from the beginning of the Baodao high-tech industry. Their relationships are extremely profound.

The current international capital situation is: the United States not only pushed the exchange rate of the Japanese yen to within 100:1, but even reached an unprecedented level of 80:1, but also pushed the exchange rate of the New Taiwan Dollar to around 25:1 from the previous range of nearly 40:1 to the current range.

On the other hand, for various reasons, the exchange rate of the RMB against the US dollar has always remained at a range of above 8.27 yuan.

Under such circumstances, even Baodao Capital could not suppress the urge to go to the mainland, let alone the richest man.

Therefore, Tang Huan had to use the biggest malicious intention to infer that Li Denghui wanted to use the most common trick of "forcing to Liangshan" in "Water Margin" to use this investment contrast to create trouble and force the richest man to make a clear statement in his most fundamental high-tech industry.

If he had to try his wish, Li Denghui would make a lot of money; if he was rejected, Tang Huan would undoubtedly bring hatred on Baodao.

In this regard, the richest man who has always been good at protecting himself is very angry. Isn’t the example of Xiangjiang not obvious enough? Don’t use me as a bargaining chip to make trouble, otherwise the consequences will be serious!

...

On June 13, Li Denghui returned to Baodao from the United States, and welcomed him with a high reputation. After all, the practice of visiting the highest officials of Baodao Island in nearly 17 years has not been broken by him.

Think about it, Deng Lijun was regarded as a victim of collective catharsis of losing emotions because of a so-called "fake passport" incident, and he knew how much Baodao cared about this.

Although Li Denghui made a plan on the surface, he looked calm and composed in his master's control, but he was indescribable to the United States. He was so worth a few birds with one stone. It was worth more than a year of hard work.

After almost getting tired of the compliments from his subordinates, Li Denghui slowly asked what the mainland was doing.

When he heard the report of "no response", Li Denghui waved his hand in high spirits that Lian Zhan was preparing to visit Europe, which could be exposed by the media.

This finally made a hornet's nest, and China began to make political statements. On June 16, it announced the recall of Ambassador to the United States, Li Daoyu, expressing dissatisfaction with the United States; at the same time, it closed the communication channels for Baodao, and the original plan for the Jiao Tang talks and the second Gu Wang talks were all postponed.

Li Denghui didn't care about this, but just called his confidant Liu Taiying to ask about what Tang Huan's reaction was?

Still, there was no response.

Li Denghui, who got this answer, couldn't help but wonder in his heart that he shouldn't have it!

You know, Li Denghui's trip to the United States has made great contributions in the media, and he turned a corner in "Chang'an City", which naturally entangled Tang Huan in the title of "Treasure Island Son-in-law" of the richest man, and suddenly spread it again after many years.

This time, there is a clear difference from the previous complete gossip, but with intentional promotion, political expectations were added. After all, the identity and status of the parties involved are more important than before.

Seeing his boss showing disappointment, Liu Taiying quickly added: "This trend will not fade so easily, and the momentum of praising Tang Huan is decided."

"Now some media have made a comparison. Li Yuanzhe, the 1986 Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry who was awarded the National Science Medal in the same year as Tang Huan, has returned to Baodao and actively participated in the affairs of his hometown. How could the 'Baodao son-in-law' be vague?"

Li Denghui immediately understood and laughed, "This is what the people want!"

"It's not just this." Liu Taiying continued to report: "The increasingly active Li Ao also said that Tang Huan has made so much from Baodao over the years, so he can't really make a fortune in silence, he should express his own opinions."

Li Denghui couldn't hide his gloating feelings and said, "It's good to pinch..."

"And there." Seeing that the boss was very interested, Liu Taiying offered treasure again: "It is no secret that Tang Huan and the Wang family have a deep relationship. The eldest young master of the Wang family who has always regarded you as an idol also urged Tang Huan to express his own opinions."

Li Denghui nodded in surprise, "If Tang Huan stands on our side, it will be like a tiger; otherwise, it will make him notorious on the treasure island and lose a potential resistance."
