Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 1028 Don't talk about economy, talk about defense

Looking at the whole situation, as well as the records of several US-Japan talks before and after.

The purpose of the United States is relatively clear. What they want is the ability to directly influence the Japanese economy!In other words, it means stronger control over Japan.

Using a strong market position to influence the decision-making of various parties in Japan is, in the final analysis, only an indirect influence.If it is really urgent, maybe people can really break the jar!Even if it was the case after the fall, obviously, wouldn't it be better if they could also be deprived of their ability to throw cans?
Then the scope of the conditions that the United States may propose and need to propose will be greatly reduced!

"Further lower the restrictions on the banking and insurance industries? Do not obstruct the opening of Bank of America branches in Japan."

The banking and insurance industries are all industries with the ability to store and store. As long as they can start business, they can directly absorb money from Japanese companies and residents, and they can directly squeeze the money bag first.

This is what Carter believes the United States needs most.

At the very least, it is necessary to adjust and adjust Japan's superficial regulatory rules that have just been announced.Adjust to be more realistic!
"Removal of foreign exchange controls."

In bilateral trade, the exchange rate and freedom of exchange are undoubtedly important indicators.

Even if the United States intends to infect every corner of the Japanese economy, it has to put out the real gold and white eyes labeled as the United States and stuff it into the Japanese economy first.Then, the more stuffed, the more capital surnamed America in the Japanese economy, the more the United States can speak!
However, these capitals labeled as the United States cannot be handled by the federal government alone.So here comes the problem, if the foreign exchange control is not opened, the large amount of capital in the United States will enter Japan, and they are all beating drums in their hearts.Faced with an investment that may not be able to recover the return, who can't hesitate to look at it? !

Only by opening up foreign exchange control can the large and small capitals of the United States completely let go!

One is to open the door, the other is to step forward.
After completing these two steps, Carter took a rough look at the rest of the problems, and felt that they could be figured out gradually.
With the direction, the next step is to make a report!
Unlike before, this time, Carter just signed the report.This is a work task, and there is a specific and responsible team to make it. It is not necessary for Carter to do anything more in it, but at least he has provided some suggestions, and it is not too much to sign.

After the normal report was turned in, Carter got another day in Ontario.

In addition to his daily work, he occasionally went to Charles Cheney and Karl Warnon. As for Rick's father, Carter didn't run much.Except for visiting during festivals and festivals, they usually run too closely together, which makes them look strange.
This complete relationship chain can be said to be the most confident line for Carter when he is conducting lobbying business.The communication took less than a month. In November, the Ministry of Defense officially listed the new monthly procurement plan. Among them, the Army needs to purchase a batch of high-performance computer projects. A group of engineers also took up the burden of preparing to go north.

In a blink of an eye, the time came to December.

Japan, once again sent staff to the United States.But this time, the level is higher, directly led by Japanese Prime Minister Toshiki Kaibu.Except for Nobusuke Kishi, the reception work of the next two groups of Japanese groups going to the United States has become normal.

While Tom Foley and the others were busy walking around, Carter's side was relatively more relaxed!Because, their prediction was right!
During the Deputy Prime Minister's visit to the United States, the negotiating requirements were clearly the hope that the United States would allow Japan to join MI5.As for the request proposed by the United States at that time, it requested to impose 40% anti-dumping duties on imported TVs and monitors from Japan, and to increase the scale of imports of agricultural products and electronic products from the United States, and directly agreed.

Quite a bit of the determination of a strong man to cut his wrist!
It's just that apart from emotion, Carter and others, who have already judged Japan's move, have even prepared a plan for what the US will do in response.Just looking forward to Christmas now!

Anyway, for the specific negotiations, it was not their turn to come forward, the guys in the shadows.

One big purchase after another gradually filled Carter's rest day in December.This year, Carter plans to spend Christmas here in Maryland.Now that Melis has graduated, at work, when Christmas comes, stars also have to rest.They all have enough time to come over for the holidays, which will not delay much.And spending Christmas in Maryland, Carter also took the opportunity to strengthen exchanges with federal officials at all levels.

Pre-holiday visits, visits, and your visits are all indispensable.I ran away far away, isn't that purely self-isolation? !
Judging from the current situation, Carter does not have much worry.The relationship network is mainly concentrated in the Republican Party, as well as the national defense system and the army system, which is enough if it is enough.But thinking of the current situation in the United States, Carter is always a little sad
The relationship between these key departments will inevitably be rotated after the new term.I don't expect to live such a good life in Brother Dunzi's team, but I have to make sure that I won't be messed up because of the change of term!

It is precisely because of this demand that Carter's manor has become more and more noisy as the end of the month approaches.Even in order to hide his clumsiness, Carter deliberately bought another property in the special zone.

The real petty officials and colleagues are received there; while the big bosses are all invited to the manor.

It can't be said that you are ordering food with people, but in getting along, Carter feels that for those small officials, if you invite them to the manor with tens of millions of Guangsha, they may think that you are respecting him and treat him as a person. Friends look.But pressure is also essential!

The final result of the relationship may not necessarily show a good side!
Carter's pursuit is to moisten things silently and naturally.

Just before Christmas, the meeting record between Lao Bu and Kaibu Toshiki was sent to Carter's desk.

At the last U.S.-Japan meeting in 91, the point of discussion may seem a bit strange at first glance: the entire meeting record, the whole article records the problems of the relationship between the United States and Japan and the international situation.

Including Kaibu Toshiki's talks with House Speaker Foley and Senate President Mitchell, the most talked about issue was also the US-Japan alliance.The focus is not on economic issues at all!
The focus of the talks has been discussing how to revise the "Guidelines for US-Japan Defense Cooperation".

In the field of US-Japan security, the most well-known agreement is the "US-Japan Security Treaty", but just as, often the key points are hidden behind the scenes.The first revision of the "U.S.-Japan Defense Cooperation Guidelines" in 1978 really formulated the guidelines for how the U.S. troops stationed in Japan and the Japanese military should cooperate in peacetime and when Japan is invaded, the principles for both sides in wartime and peacetime, and When Japan is invaded, the specific steps of how the US troops stationed in Japan should act, etc., are clearly stipulated in this agreement.

This time, instead of talking about economic issues, the whole article is talking about the revision of the "Guidelines for US-Japan Defense Cooperation", which is very interesting!
