Chapter 1446 Negative Assets among Leeks (Second update, please subscribe)
“Actually, it’s just welding car doors!”

While lighting a cigar, Li Yian said:
"Not only do you need to be able to build cars, but you also need to learn how to weld car doors. In this regard, I am also an expert at welding car doors!"

Li Yian, who thought he was an expert at welding car doors, couldn't help but feel proud. To a certain extent, he could indeed be called an "expert in welding car doors."

Back then, the U.S. textile industry was devastated by the use of sweatshops in Kyushu, Malaysia, Mindanao, Hong Kong and other places, and the sale of cheap products such as "one-dollar shirts". At the request of millions of textile workers, Washington sent representatives to conduct trade negotiations.

And what is the outcome of the trade negotiations?
It is not just about restricting the export of cheap goods. More importantly, it is about making the United States, Britain and other countries realize the impact of cheap goods from sweatshops in developing countries on their own companies. By revising the terms of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, from the one-vote veto system for access by other countries to the compliance review system, it is almost like welding the car doors shut.

"Just being able to weld the car doors shut is not enough..."

After taking a puff of cigar, Li Yian frowned and said:

"Welding car doors shut will only block the development of poor countries. This is not a fundamental solution to the problem. We must also learn how to reap the benefits and help poor countries develop..."

Suddenly, Li Yian seemed to have suddenly realized something, and said excitedly:

"I understand! This is the key. Welding car doors is the key, but the more important thing is to learn how to help them develop. Just like the United States, the purpose of helping them is to make more wealth, and then harvest it at the right time! That's right!"

Li Yian pounded his fist hard and said with a smile:

"Rich countries are getting richer, while poor countries are staying steadily poorer..."

Although it sounds simple, it is actually very complicated. It involves technical details in all aspects, such as free exchange rates, talent harvesting, and open finance... In short, if one detail is not perfected, it will be impossible to implement the harvesting.

“So the key is to create a proper leek field from the beginning. Only in this way can you harvest it at will.”

Nodding silently, Li Yian finally understood on this day. What he understood was not anything else, but the "rules of the game of the world". Before that, he only focused on building cars, although he kept muttering "harvest" and even made a plan of "using all countries as vegetable gardens".

But in fact, he is a layman when it comes to harvesting.

But now, he has completely understood.

“Harvesting is a technical job. It requires creating a group of late-rich people to show that following you can become developed and wealthy, and using them to make the pie bigger and gain more wealth. At the same time, you can use them as a model and use other countries’ desire to get rid of poverty to keep them poor, thus ensuring that poor countries create value for you!”

In fact, this is the same path that the invisible families in the United States "create" new rich people. When people see the rise of the new rich, they always fantasize that they will become new rich one day. The reason why they have not done so yet is simply because of bad luck.

When applied to a country, the poor people who are subjected to PUA will blame the country's poverty on its own system and greedy dignitaries. They will even imagine a "lighthouse" that they can become rich and powerful as long as they learn from it and follow it!
Even if they have worked hard for more than ten or twenty years, but were cut off overnight and returned to the period before liberation, they will only look for the reasons in themselves and seek hope in the lighthouse.

"Fuck... after all this time, this is PUA! It's just that it's in a poor PUA country!"

Li Yian suddenly realized, and only at this moment did he understand why the United States could reap profits all over the world. So many people hated it, but there were even more people who were willing to offer their flesh and blood to be reaped!
The reason is very simple. He has long ago used hopes and dreams to PUA the people of those countries and has made it impossible to distinguish right from wrong!

"Damn it, this is the highest realm of harvesting! I must study, I must study hard!"

I sighed in my heart,

Li Yian couldn't help but walk to the map and look at it. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but what appeared before his eyes was a field of green leeks surrounding him!
In fact, even leeks are divided into different grades.

Some leeks need to maintain their poverty, such as the Philippines, which will produce maids in the future.

Some leeks help the director to make more wealth. For example, South Korea can achieve a leap forward through hard work, but the rhythm of harvesting must be maintained to ensure that the sheep can be fleeced without making any complaints.

And what about leeks?

Li Yian first turned his attention to Japan. In fact, Japan was the country that had reaped the most in recent years. In the past decade or so, not only had hundreds of thousands of highly educated talents and skilled workers been harvested there, but even fertility - millions of Japanese women were also harvested.

The damage caused to Japan by such a harvest is imaginable.

"The key is to learn from the American approach, which is to create rich countries, expand the wealth plate and give them hope, and to create poor countries and ensure that there are enough poor countries for them to drive..."

As he was muttering to himself, Li Yian's eyes moved from time to time, to Japan, South Korea, Kyushu, the Philippines, Siam, Malaysia, Star City, Mindanao, Surabaya, Cambodia, Saigon, Iran, Iraq, and the future East African Federation.

These countries and regions can be members of the future "Pan-Oceanic Cooperation Organization" or they can be leeks. There is no contradiction between the two.

The only problem is the positioning of leeks.

Finally, Li Yian's eyes fell on Saigon.

Among so many leeks, only Saigon's positioning is extremely complicated. It can neither provide maids like the Philippines, nor provide talents and fertility like Japan, nor can it create more wealth and make the pie bigger like South Korea, Mindanao and Surabaya.

That place was a quagmire. Once you stepped into it, you would get half of your body sunk in and even lose your life.

At present, Saigon is the weakest link among all the links. "Saigon... it's so damn difficult to deal with!"

How could it not be difficult? With the support of two big countries, it was difficult enough to almost bring the United States to collapse!

Such leeks, at the moment, are almost negative assets!
……

The roar of the helicopter echoed in the sky above the rainforest. Fully armed soldiers sat in the cabin. A soldier operated a MAG machine gun at the cabin door. Not far away, two armed helicopters were escorting on the side.

Yang Fan shouted to the officer beside him:
"Lieutenant Ruan, after the landing, proceed according to the plan..."

"Yes, sir!"

Ruan Wenlong responded loudly. Unlike the emblem of the 1st Air Cavalry Brigade on Yang Fan’s left sleeve, the emblem on his left arm was the Saigon Marine Corps. On this helicopter, there were both Marines and officers from the Army Special Forces, and they all came to Chang'an for training.

As early as seven years ago, according to the defense cooperation plan, Saigon officers came here for training. Not only Saigon, but also officers from South Korea, Kyushu, Malaysia and Siam would come to the joint training center for training.

As Ruan Wenlong finished speaking, the armed helicopter launched an "attack" and rockets flew "chirp" into the distance. For a moment, the rainforest was filled with smoke.

Soon, the helicopter landed on a meadow in the rainforest, and Yang Fan immediately shouted:
"Quick, quick..."

Holding the rifle handle in his right hand and his helmet with his left hand, Ruan Wenlong was the first to jump out of the helicopter. Before he rushed out a few meters, he was half-kneeling on the grass, standing alert. As soon as the team members jumped out of the helicopter, the pilot quickly drove the plane away from the battlefield.

The entire landing process took less than 30 seconds. Even during the landing, the helicopter maintained a hover of about one meter instead of fully landing. Even the take-off was an emergency maneuverable climb on the battlefield.

“It’s really different!”

Observing the team members scattered around the meadow, Ruan Wenlong couldn't help but marvel. As a Marine Corps officer, he had received training from American military instructors when he was in the military academy. By comparison, he found that the training here was closer to actual combat and more modern. Just like now, although they have implemented an airdrop, they did not advance, but waited.

Waiting for aerial reconnaissance.

In the air, a reconnaissance drone is flying at an altitude of one thousand meters. Although the flying altitude is not high, because its wingspan is only 5 meters and its length is 3.68 meters, it is difficult for anti-aircraft machine guns to hit it.

Since the Scout UAV was put into service, it has been the trump card of the army and navy. By using UAVs in military operations, real-time monitoring of the battlefield can be achieved.

Although Yang Fan, as the on-site commander, cannot see the drone's reconnaissance footage, he can obtain battlefield information through the radio. Unlike the AN/PRC-77 ultra-short wave radio used by the US military, which requires an external voice encryption machine, the radio they use has a built-in voice encryption machine, which is a performance integration achieved through integrated circuits to prevent the radio from being monitored.

"Hawkeye, Hawkeye, please provide the current situation!"

Yang Fan squatted in the bushes, staring into the distance, calling out and observing the front, while Ruan Wenlong squatted beside him, holding a plastic-wrapped map in his hand, marking the location reported by the superior on the map.

"understand!"

Passing the microphone to the electromechanical worker, Yang Fan said to Ruan Wenlong:
"There is movement in the rainforest at 10 o'clock. It is about 3000 meters away from us. There may be guerrillas ambushing. Lieutenant Ruan, Lieutenant Wu, what do you think we should do now?"

"Bombard!"

Ruan Wenlong glanced at the dense rain forest, thought for a moment and said:
"We should first fire 120mm mortars to force them out of the ambush position..."

"The distance is too far. Even if the firepower disperses them, we still have to enter the rain forest. By then, the threat posed by those stragglers will be more persistent. Moreover, it will be more difficult to detect the enemy from the air after they are dispersed..."

While they were discussing the battle plan, Ruan Wenlong once again looked up at the sky, at the black dot in the sky.

Those are the scouts, who protect them like eyes in the sky. With their existence, it is difficult for the guerrillas to implement tactics such as roundabout encirclement on a large scale.

This kind of transparency on the battlefield was something he had never imagined in the past, and even the American instructors could not imagine it.

"It's like two different wars. The Americans seem to be stuck in World War II, while they seem to have entered the future."

Faced with this extremely modern and even somewhat sci-fi way of warfare, Ruan Wenlong was extremely shocked.

After all, this way of war completely subverted his imagination.

"For them, fighting is like a war game. They use so many advanced and modern equipment to turn war into a one-sided game."

As the troops advanced, another thought came to Nguyen Van Long's mind. If the Saigon army could receive the training and armaments here, then perhaps they would be able to quickly pacify the Saigon guerrillas and restore peace in the country.

"In fact, even with only the assistance from the United States, we can do it..."

At this time, on the training ground of the Joint Training Center, Ruan Wenlong, who was full of confidence, never thought that the war would last for more than ten years in the future. Now, the "turmoil" he saw was just the beginning...
