Through the wealth life

Chapter 1277
On Sunday morning, Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing were planning to stay with their children at home today, but it's a pity that the United States did not give him such an opportunity.

Just on Saturday morning, US time, the spokespersons of multiple US departments held a joint press conference to conduct anti-dumping investigations on some foreign companies, adjust some import tariffs, and issue import bans on some products.

And this time, the industries under the Lee Group, Sumitomo Group, Mitsui Group, Hyundai Group, and Samsung Group are more involved.

The Suzaku operating system in the Lee Consortium was identified by the FBI as being suspected of collecting information on American nationals and was banned from entering. At the same time, American citizens were required to uninstall this software, and its office software was also banned for the same reason.

Import tariffs on mobile phones and computers under the Phoenix Group have increased by 30 and 50% on the current basis.

The tariffs on products under the Oriental Semiconductor Group have been raised by 30%, and American semiconductor companies are prohibited from selling any technology and patents to it.

Bentley's major luxury brand cars were hit hard again, occupying the largest sales in the US luxury car market. Jaguar raised tariffs by 50% on the existing basis, and Maserati, Lamborghini, Land Rover, and Lotus increased tariffs by 80% each.

Thomson Home Appliances and Chunghwa Home Appliances, which are owned by Chunghwa Electric, have been increased by 30% and 20% tariffs respectively.

A 30% tariff was imposed on cosmetics products under the Jiadai Group, and a 50% tariff was imposed on products from the West Australian Steel Group.

This time, Li Guangyu's major technology and manufacturing industries were wiped out, except for the retail, apparel, entertainment, and toy companies that had a great influence on the American people.

Not to mention Suzaku Group's operating system and office software, this basically announced the loss of the largest market in the United States.

The tariffs on the products under the Phoenix Group are relatively high, but this time the tariffs have been increased, which basically announced that the Phoenix Group has withdrawn from the US market.

At least until there is no cross-generational product, the products of the Phoenix Group cannot be sold in the United States. There are not many people in the United States who say that people are stupid and have a lot of money.

At the same time, the United States once again dealt a severe blow to the Bentley Group in the already sluggish luxury car market. Such high tariffs will make the Bentley luxury car brand lose any market for its cost-effectiveness in the US market.

Dongfang Semiconductor has always relied on price to compete for the market. This time, the United States has increased tariffs again. The cost of importing products from Dongfang Semiconductor Group is much higher than the cost of products from companies in the U.S. market. Obviously, companies including Intel will no longer buy from Dongfang Semiconductor Group. Ordering Products.

The impact of home appliances, cosmetics, and steel companies has been relatively reduced. At present, these companies have not opened up markets in the United States.

As for Jiadai's daily chemical products, they are not included in the list of tariffs that the United States will increase this time.

This time, it's not just the Li's consortium that is suffering, the Japanese Mitsui consortium and the Sumitomo consortium are not much better, and their main companies are also being targeted.

However, what is strange this time is that the products of the three consortiums of Mitsubishi, Fuji, and Sanwa were not specifically targeted, and some previously targeted companies were also cancelled, such as Mitsubishi Motors, Nissan Motor, Hitachi, etc.

The same is true in South Korea. Hyundai and Samsung are the main targets of suppression, but Lotte, Hanjin, LG, Daewoo and other groups have no restrictions or special targets.

On the way to the Wheelock Building, Cao Weiqing said: "Guangyu, I'm afraid that the actions of the United States this time are to split the Japanese consortium and the Korean consortium. Mitsui and Mitsubishi are not very harmonious. Mitsui has been in harmony with Sumitomo, First Quanye made good friends, and Mitsubishi made good friends with Fuji and Sanhe.

The battles among the major families in South Korea are also not small. The competition between Hyundai, Daewoo, Hanjin and other groups, and Samsung's competitors are also not small. "

Li Guangyu can't do anything about the American consortium's approach. It is estimated that their Asian capital's joint counterattack is too ruthless this time, which makes the American consortium a little bit impatient. They don't want such a united Asian capital to exist. This time they chose to fight a group. A group, let the Asian capital themselves fall into civil strife, so that it will be much easier for them to deal with one side.

However, Li Guangyu never thought that the Lee consortium (including the Xiangjiang consortium and the Hsinchu consortium) could live in friendly relations with the Korean consortium and the Japanese consortium.

Whether it is based on history or real interests, it is impossible for these three companies to cooperate for a long time. They can still cooperate in the face of a common enemy. Once the enemy retreats, the competition among the three parties is not small at all.

For example, the home appliances, semiconductors, and electronics industries owned by the three companies, the automobile industry of the three companies, and the retail industry of the three companies are all industries in which the three parties need to compete.

Moreover, the three parties are all based on the Asian market, which makes the three parties more often competitors than collaborators.

The current situation in Asia is that the Japanese consortium is the strongest, the Lee consortium ranks second, the Korean consortium ranks third, the Indian consortium (led by the Tata Group) ranks fourth, the Singapore consortium ranks fifth, and the Malaysian Chinese consortium ranks Sixth, there are some families in other areas, which are not of the same level as these.

The major families in South Korea are all small conglomerates. In addition to the rapid economic growth of South Korea in recent years, the Hyundai and Samsung consortiums are quite strong. Some medium-sized consortiums in the United States may not be as strong as them.

Li Guangyu responded: "Don't think too much about it. It will come when it should. You have to remember that our allies are only the Xiangjiang Bank consortium and the Hsinchu Commercial Bank consortium. Whether it is the Japanese-Korean consortium, the Singaporean consortium or the Malaysian Chinese consortium, these are just short-term partners, and it is impossible for us to continue to cooperate with them, which is determined by the development of all parties.”

The Xiangjiang Bank consortium and the Hsinchu Commercial Bank consortium, the major families hold shares in each other, and have shares in many companies. In recent years, the interests of all parties have become closer and closer. Several parties have already been tied together. Both are lost, these two are the solid allies of Li's consortium.

There are too many similar companies in all parties. If they want to become bigger and stronger, they must compete with each other for the market. In addition, all parties belong to Asia, and their interests determine that they cannot become long-term allies.

Cao Weiqing actually understands the situation here, but now the Li Consortium is being suppressed by the American consortium and the government, and if there are rivals in Asia, the pressure on the Li Consortium will be too great.

She really didn't want to see Li Guangyu bear such huge pressure silently. Faced with the current situation, the core personnel of Li's consortium, including the Xiangjiang and Hsinchu consortia, all looked at Li Guangyu. They were not capable of facing such a heavy burden. Moreover, due to the nature of the industry, Yulon Group and Datong Group were targeted by the United States, and other groups were safe and sound.

Perhaps this is the responsibility of being the head and neck of a powerful force. Now that he is in this position, he must have the ability to bear such a heavy pressure.

Now the other two major consortiums have just begun to develop comprehensively in multiple industries. Their competitiveness is not too strong, so it will take time.

The Xiangjiang Bank consortium mainly focuses on finance and real estate. The Hsinchu Bank consortium is better, with retail, real estate, automobiles, home appliances, financial electronics, semiconductors, etc. there.

But there are many typical ones but not strong ones, and the only ones that have developed well are the main business groups of their big families and Hsinchu Bank.
