Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

This moment.

Xu Cun is at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Northwest in Washington, D.C., which is the official residence and office of the President of the United States - the White House.

As soon as he entered the White House, Xu Cun was overwhelmed with emotion!

Including the White House, Xu Cun has visited all the political shrines of the world's three major powers—China, the United States, and the Soviet Union—this is something that most people, including the leaders of the three powers, have never experienced. Yes, for a while, Xu Cun was inevitably full of pride!

On the other hand, there must be nothing good for President Reagan to find Xu Cun, who has just made a fortune in the United States, in this special period. Xu Cun is somewhat worried!

Accompanied by Bush Jr., Xu Cun first met the current US Vice President - Bush Sr.

Prior to this, Xu Cun, who had a close relationship with the Bush family, had also met Bush Sr., but at that time Xu Cun was not on the stage, at least not enough to make friends with Bush Sr. personally.

Therefore, when Bush Sr. saw Xu Cun at that time, at most he nodded to Xu Cun or said one or two words of encouragement to Xu Cun.

but--

After this stock market crash, Bush Sr.'s attitude towards Xu Cun is obviously different from before.

As soon as he saw Xu Cun, Bush Sr. dismissed Bush Jr. and took Xu Cun to see President Reagan himself.

On the way, Bush Sr. reminded Xu Cun with a voice that was not loud but enough for Xu Cun to hear very clearly: "Don't worry, the president is looking for you, just wanting you to participate in the bailout."

After hearing Bush's reminder, Xu Cun immediately said, "Thank you uncle for your reminder!"

Bush Sr. said again: "You have made so much money in the United States this time. It is unreasonable not to provide some bailouts. Not only you, but they will also be sought."

Speaking of this, Bush Sr. suggested: "I suggest that you might as well invest more. It is best to create more jobs, which will be good for you."

Next year, that is, in 1988, Bush Sr. will be elected President of the United States. Therefore, Xu Cun had to adopt the advice given to Xu Cun by Bush Sr. without too much trouble.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Cun immediately said: "If my idea can be approved, I can spend all the money I earned from the United States this time in the United States, and I can even add a large amount of investment."

Bush Sr. glanced at Xu Cun, then asked calmly, "What do you think?"

Xu Cundao: "I want to build an oil and gas pipeline under the Pacific Ocean to sell Canadian oil and natural gas to the Asia-Pacific region. If the US government and the US Congress agree with me to build this pipeline, then all the materials needed to build the pipeline to the Asian region All personnel and personnel are provided by the United States. I have had people do the calculations. It is conservatively estimated that this pipeline can directly provide 100,000 high-paying jobs for the United States. If one of the purposes is to solve the employment problem in the United States, this pipeline can directly provide the United States with 200 10,000 high-paying jobs, and if we count low- and medium-paying jobs and derivative jobs, it is conservatively estimated that this pipeline can provide more than 5 million jobs in the United States.”

After hearing Xu Cun's 'Canada-Pacific' oil and gas pipeline plan, Bush Sr. was silent for a long time before asking: "What is the nature of this company?"

Xu Cun replied: "I am a sole proprietorship."

Bush Sr. shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Such a critical pipeline must have an American company as a shareholder."

Xu Cun said leisurely: "I personally don't mind having a partner, but is there any American company willing to invest a large amount of money in this oil company that will definitely lose money for a long time in the future?"

The current U.S. strategy for the Soviet Union is to unfreeze the strategic oil reserves, let the "oil tyrant" Saudi Arabia increase oil production time and time again, lower the price of oil as low as it can, and drag down the Soviet Union.

One of the people in charge of this plan is actually Bush Sr. After Bush Sr. waited for the presidency, Bush Sr. promoted the plan himself.

Therefore, it can be said that no one knows better than Bush Sr. that no American company will invest a lot of money in Xu Cun's oil company.

However, a big oil company that can build nearly 10,000 meters of pipelines under the Pacific Ocean cannot invest a lot of money in it, and it is impossible to occupy too many shares.

Taking a step back, even if there are one or two idiot American companies that jump into the fire pit of Xu Cun's oil company, sooner or later they will definitely jump out because they can't hold on.

After pondering for a long time, Bush Sr. asked Xu Cun: "Since you can see the general trend of the oil industry, why do you invest money in it?"

Xu Cun smiled and said: "I bet on the future of the oil industry. I believe that the oil industry will recover its due economic status one day soon."

Bush Sr. seems to be reminding Xu Cun: "But this time may be very long."

Xu Cun said with a firm gaze: "High risks come with high rewards!"

Feeling that his words were a bit blunt, Xu Cun laughed again: "Besides, I'm only twenty-seven years old, even if I wait thirty years, I can afford it."

Hearing Xu Cun talk about his age, Bush Sr. realized that Xu Cun was ten years younger than his son Bush Jr.

This awareness made Bush Sr. pay more attention to Xu Cun - no matter how harshly he looked at it, Xu Cun had faintly risen to become a vassal, so he was able to obtain Xu Cun as a vassal for half a century or even A longer friendship is very meaningful to the Bush family!

Bush Sr. changed the subject and said, "Who are you going to let build the pipeline in Asia?"

Xu Cun replied: "Which country buys my oil, I will let that country build it."

Xu Cun's answer is reasonable, because only in this way can Xu Cun face the least obstacles, and the oil and gas pipeline Xu Cun wants to build can be completed.

Bush Sr. thought for a while and said, "The Middle East..."

Xu Cun smiled and said, "Isn't it good for the United States to have one more choice? Moreover, my pipeline is absolutely under the control of the United States."

Canada is sandwiched between the eastern and western parts of the United States, and the United States can cut off Xu Cun's oil and gas pipelines by sending a random warship, so Xu Cun's claim that his pipelines are absolutely under the control of the United States is not wrong at all.

Xu Cun's reminder moved Bush Sr.'s heart - there are no permanent friends in this world, only permanent interests. Yes, Saudi Arabia now needs the protection of the United States and listens to the words of the United States, but who knows if Saudi Arabia will always be like this? If Xu Cun's 'Canada-Pacific' oil and gas pipeline can be built, if Saudi Arabia is not obedient, then Xu Cun, whose main artery has been choked by the United States, can also become an excellent candidate.

After thinking about this, Bush Sr. smiled lightly and stopped talking.

Seeing that Bush Sr. seemed to be persuaded by himself, Xu Cun, who was beside Bush Sr., also secretly smiled in his heart—yes, in the future, the main valve of the "Canada-Pacific" oil and gas pipeline will be in the hands of the United States. Don't forget, Those branch valves leading to various regions in the Asia-Pacific region will all be in Xu Cun's hands in the future. Therefore, without Xu Cun's cooperation, the United States will never want to cut off the oil and gas of any country, unless the United States dares to take the risk of public anger and cut off the oil and gas supply of the entire Asia-Pacific region.

Moreover, if all goes well, the oil and gas pipeline that Xu Cun will master in the future will not only be the 'Canada-Pacific' oil and gas pipeline...
