Chapter 956: Those who can explode gold coins are old friends (Second update, please subscribe)
A yellow beam dream!
What is a long dream? Perhaps it is the so-called dream of modernization of many emerging countries after World War II.

For example, the Philippines, South Vietnam, and even the African countries after independence, people thought that the future had endless possibilities. For example, when Africa gained independence, the whole world thought that Africa was the next emerging continent. But who would have thought that after independence, the whole of Africa was shrouded in famine and war, and the so-called emerging countries were heading towards a dead end one after another.

All expectations are nothing but a dream.

Among the emerging countries and regions, except Japan, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan, the dreams of all other emerging countries from Asia to Africa and South America have been shattered at different times.

The reasons vary, but in the final analysis, in addition to the core factor of race, stable political situation and efficient bureaucratic system are indispensable.

South Vietnam was the first country to be shattered in this dream. It took only ten years from the beginning of the dream to the awakening. In less than ten years, not only would people's optimism be completely shattered, but even the Wu brothers would pay the price for their wrong policies.

The head of a country is actually an extreme Catholic, and he vowed to "dedicate" the country where the majority of the population is Buddhist to God. His head... must have been kicked by a donkey!

Faced with internal and external troubles, they don’t know what it means to unite the majority, but instead suppress the majority... This is simply stupid!
"Their beautiful dreams will eventually be shattered. We don't need to worry about the impact of their trade barriers on us. In fact, their demand for imported products will only increase in the future. After all, failure is what awaits them in the end..."

Listening to your judgment, Li Guoren was silent for a while. He thought of a lot of things, and of course he also thought of the dramatic changes in Tangshan. After a little analysis in his heart, he said.

"North Vietnam has the support of Dongda, and its top leaders have close relations with Dongda's top leaders. Dongda will definitely fully support North Vietnam..."

Finally he sighed and said.

"It seems that South Vietnam can't hold out for many more years. Considering the local terrain, even if the United States intervenes, it may not be effective."

How did Li Guoren come to this conclusion? Because Nanyang’s final bottom line on the Siam issue was to set up a demarcation line on the Malay Peninsula - because facing a border line of thousands of kilometers covered by tropical rainforests, Siam would be difficult to defend and would be infiltrated by others like a sieve.

This premise is that others must invest enough manpower and material resources. At present, Siam is most fortunate that there are no two Siams and no continuous manpower investment. Although Siam faces external threats, it is not in danger of national destruction.

But Vietnam is different. As long as North Vietnam gets assistance, they can continuously infiltrate into South Vietnam through the thousands of kilometers of western border and the tropical rainforest. By that time, the demise of South Vietnam is only a matter of time.

"Even the Americans cannot establish a solid front. They will be caught in the dilemma of being attacked from all sides. They may win every battle, but they will never be able to destroy the enemy unless they are determined to attack the north and occupy North Vietnam. Otherwise, the North only needs to keep sending troops to the south through the trails in the rain forest."

Looking into the distance, Li Yian nodded and said.

"With the support of a great power, the dream of unifying the country, and the will and psychological preparation to sacrifice millions of people, it will be difficult for the South to hold on!"

In another world, Americans have been exhausted in this way. If they had not stopped the losses in time, coupled with the strong capital and ample time to recover, the United States would probably have ruined itself there.

Vietnam War!

It's like a nightmare for the United States.

It's not just like, it's exactly the same!
In less than 10 years, the military expenditure amounted to 5500 billion US dollars, and tens of thousands of soldiers died. In addition, the domestic public was divided on the issue of anti-war. That division even affected the United States until the st century. The white left, LGBT and other demons and monsters basically expanded rapidly in the name of anti-war at that time.

Vietnam is definitely a sad place for the United States!
Whether politically, militarily, or economically.

As a result, in the next decade or so, the US military, which had suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, did not dare to act rashly and immediately became timid when faced with war issues. This lack of confidence has plagued the US military since the withdrawal from Vietnam, and this is also the fundamental reason for the great retreat in the 70s.

Although Reagan picked on Grenada and Panama after he came to power, the US military, who had suffered from "PTSD", had a plan when intervening in Grenada and Panama - if they failed, they would retreat immediately, without any hesitation. That cowardly look simply makes people doubt - is it still the aggressive number one on the blue planet?
It was not until the complete victory in the Gulf War that they regained their confidence, and then they became arrogant for the next few decades, to the point that they became a little carried away and stayed in Afghanistan for twenty years. Although not many people died, money was spent like water, and trillions of dollars were lost. The number one army on Blue Planet became a security force.

Seeing that the Excellency seemed to be thinking about something, Li Guoren asked.

"Sir, will he see it or not?"

Li Guoren asked this question because he knows you well. Since that place is a trouble, you must stay away from it.

"Yes, of course I will!"

Li Yian smiled.

"At least in the next twenty years, there will still be a lot of big business to do in South Vietnam!"

"Business? What business? The market is very limited in that place."

"Don't think that South Vietnam is poor, but there are big money-spending people behind it! We think South Vietnam is a problem, but the United States is now trying to replace the French and exert influence in South Vietnam. With the Americans involved, how can we worry about money?"

Li Yian said with a smile.

During the entire Vietnam War, the United States' military spending in Vietnam was as high as 5500 billion US dollars, and a considerable portion of this huge sum of money was spent on infrastructure. Japanese and Korean construction companies not only made a fortune in Vietnam, but also went to the world from Vietnam.

At the same time, the United States also placed a large number of military and civilian orders with Japan. These orders made Japan a lot of money, earning almost more than 610 billion US dollars at that time!

What does 610 billion US dollars mean?
Nanyang's GDP last year was only US$540 billion.

Even if we average out every year, there are orders worth six or seven billion US dollars, which is equivalent to contributing more than 10% of the national GDP!
Faced with such a huge order, how could Li Yian not be jealous?
Therefore, we must meet the Wu brothers from Vietnam!
For Li Yian, who was determined to become an "old friend of tyrants", he never minded making friends with these people. Not to mention them, even when the "Southern Puppet" Syngman Rhee visited Nanyang in 5, Li Yian had a very pleasant chat with him. Even after the visit, Nanyang provided South Korea with an interest-free loan of million South Korean won to rebuild South Korea's railway network and establish Korean Air.

In short, although Nanyang did not seem to benefit from this loan, it stimulated the development of industries such as locomotive and aircraft manufacturing in Nanyang. The most important gain was that Syngman Rhee withdrew his "Declaration to Abolish Chinese Characters". Now not only are Chinese characters taught in elementary schools in South Korea, but there are also more and more Chinese characters in newspapers, and they are likely to replace Hangul. Learning Chinese and Chinese characters has long become the most fashionable thing in South Korea.

In fact, for Koreans, being able to speak English does not necessarily mean they have the opportunity to go to the United States, but being able to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters gives them a great chance to work in Southeast Asia.

In a word, Li Yian is absolutely sincere when it comes to making friends with tyrants.

In fact, what he likes is not the tyrant, but the gold coins that explode from the tyrant!
Everyone likes to get gold coins!
That's not just a simple explosion of gold coins, but an explosion that aims to increase the national GDP by more than 10% every year!
“We not only want to meet him, but we want to further develop a relationship with him.”

Li Yian said.

"After all, South Vietnam is our friendly neighbor and a member of the free world. How can we not meet him? Although he is only an advisor to the president... he is also an old friend!"

Moreover, he is an old friend who can drop gold coins. Of course, such an old friend should be warmly welcomed.
