  Chapter 742 I am a sociologist

   "Worry?"

Paulson shook his head rather disapprovingly, "Perhaps it's because you've been under too much pressure recently, which caused you to think wildly. At least so far, Soros hasn't noticed our actions at all. Taking a step back, even if He knows that the most sensible way is to follow us to fish in troubled waters instead of choosing to fall to the European side. He knows very well that if he really does this, he will become the public enemy of American capital!"

"maybe!"

  Zhong Shi sighed and didn't speak for a while.

   "By the way, you said you have another mission, what is it?"

  In order to break the embarrassing atmosphere, Paulson took the initiative to find a topic and said, "I am also very curious, and I believe the others are also the same. But if you don't want to talk, it doesn't matter, I believe you."

   "It's not something ulterior."

Zhong Shi looked into the distance and said lightly, "I have been planning this since I encountered a demonstration in Greece. Simply put, it is to hold a large-scale demonstration in the whole of Greece before the Greek government announces its financial situation. massive strike action."

"what?"

  Hearing Zhong Shi's words, Paulson's expression changed immediately, "A general strike across Greece? Political instability? I get it, I get it..."

  If a general strike breaks out in Greece when the Greek government announces its financial situation, this is almost a double crisis. In this way, investors' panic will be multiplied and they will be infinitely pessimistic about the prospects of the Greek government.

This is not only a decline in the credibility of the current government, but also concerns about rising labor costs, because labor unions have always been representatives of labor, and most of the purpose of the strike is to improve the treatment of the working class, and the direct consequence of this is the cost of labor. The deeper reason for the rise is that rising labor costs have led to capital outflows, making the Greek economy even worse.

   I have to say, this trick is very vicious, almost a draw from the bottom. Even the well-informed Paulson changed his expression greatly after hearing about it.

"This…"

Paulson pondered for a while, and finally persuaded slowly, "Will this be too much? This basically offends the current Greek government completely, and is almost equivalent to another Soros. In addition, how can you Guarantee that their union will completely obey your orders?"

   "There will always be a way!"

  Zhong Shi hesitated for a moment, didn't speak for a long time, and then said leisurely, "Their conflict is so intense, as long as they provoke it a little, I'm afraid the whole fire will be ignited. At worst, I can still use this trick!"

  He twirled his fingers and made a gesture of counting money.

   Seeing Zhong Shi doing this, Paulson understood and laughed wordlessly.

  …

   Three days later, Zhongshi came to Greece again.

   This time it was still Fedora Gale who picked up the plane, but different from the enthusiasm last time, Fedra Gail's face was obviously much gloomy, and his smile seemed forced.

  He is not a fool. As a reporter of the Greek "Daily", he naturally knows how precious Zhong Shi's time is as the world's top fund manager. The other party appeared in the territory of Greece so many times. If he said that he was not planning something, he couldn't even believe it.

  But he didn't know what kind of medicine the other party was selling in his gourd, so he maintained his superficial enthusiasm.

   "Mr. Zhong, we meet again!"

  Phaedra Galpi stretched out his palm with a half-smile, "I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon after parting. It was beyond my expectation."

   "It also exceeded my expectations!"

Zhong Shi smiled and held each other's hand, "I remember the last time you said you would do an exclusive interview? The last time we parted too hastily, I completely forgot about it. I can't help it. I'm a person who keeps my promises, so I came back again. Already!"

   "Did I say that?"

Hearing what Zhong Shi said, the corners of Phaedra Gail's mouth twitched twice, and his brain began to spin rapidly, thinking about whether he had said such a thing, and he didn't get an answer for a long time, but since the other party said so, The chance of that exclusive interview must not be missed, and his uneasy heart suddenly stabilized a lot, and he thought to himself, maybe the other party really came for this.

"Of course!"

Hearing the other party's rhetorical question, Zhong Shi's face remained unchanged, and he subconsciously replied, "In our country, there is a proverb that says that a gentleman is worth a thousand dollars if he promises. If there is no integrity, I will have nothing to do in the market." There's no way to get a foothold."

   "..."

   Seeing what the other party said so solemnly, Phaedra Gail didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only grin sillily, but kept muttering in his heart, did the other party really care about this promise?

   It is still the last Lagonissi Hotel, or the "Royal Villa" suite. Because the tourism industry is declining day by day, there are not many guests staying, and Jiang Shan quickly booked a room. When the three of them entered the room, Jiang Shan slammed the door shut from the inside.

   "What is this for?"

  Phaedra Gale couldn't help shivering, and looked nervously at Zhong Shi and Jiang Shan, but the next moment he was relieved, he knew that these two people would not dare to do anything to him under the surveillance of the hotel.

  With their wealth, it is impossible for them to do anything to themselves, after all, they are just an unknown junior.

  But when he saw Zhong Shi and Jiang Shan, his heart tensed again for no reason. These two people have been inseparable all the time, so there must be some strange sexual orientation. If they want to be **** themselves, that's fine.

  For a while, Phaedra Gale fell into inexplicable tension and anxiety.

  The purpose of closing the door is naturally not to let others know the content of the conversation. Jiang Shan just made a normal move, who would have thought that it would cause a storm in Phaedra Gale's heart. If you let him know what Fedora Gail is thinking now, I am afraid that Jiang Shan will burst out laughing.

   and Zhong Shi looked at each other and smiled, Jiang Shan sat on the right side of Phaedra Gail, and Zhong Shi sat on the left. Without making a sound, the two sandwiched Phaedra Gale in the middle.

   Seeing this situation, it seemed that what he thought in his heart was confirmed even more. Phaedra Gale became more nervous and almost suffocated.

"Uh…"

  Zhong Shi was careful, and soon realized that something was wrong with Phaedra Gale, and immediately frowned, "Phaedra, my friend, what's wrong with you? Could it be that you are sick?"

  Hearing what Zhong Shi said, Jiang Shan noticed the abnormality of Phaedra Gale, and also cast a caring look.

   "No... nothing."

Phaedra Gail hesitated for a while before replying. In order to hide his embarrassment, he immediately changed the subject, "By the way, Mr. Zhong, when will our interview start? Do you have any other agendas? ?”

"Not in a hurry!"

Zhong Shi smiled and waved his hands, "I may have to stay here for a while this time, and I don't have any other plans. Anyway, just take a free time to come out. Before that, I would like to ask you to do one thing for me , I don’t know if it’s possible or not?”

"What's up?"

  I wanted to blurt out the promise, but when the words came to my lips, Phaedra Gail still felt that it would be better to be more cautious, in case the request of the two made him embarrassed, it would be difficult to handle. So he said in a different way, "If it is within the scope of my ability, I promise to help you. But if I can't do it personally, I will ask my friends to help, but if it still doesn't work, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do." gone."

   "Actually, this matter is very simple!"

Jiang Shan quickly continued, "Mr. Zhong is here this time because he wants to meet a few people. You just need to help matchmaking. As a corresponding reward, we will also pay you a little salary. Don't refuse, if If you don't take the money, we are embarrassed to ask you for help, which is what you should get."

   "So it is!"

Federra Guerra finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It turned out that these two people were not thinking about his chrysanthemum, which made him very relaxed. He patted his chest and agreed, "Don't say anything else, as long as it is not the Prime Minister , I can agree to the others."

  Seeing him agreeing so happily, Zhong Shi and Jiang Shan were overjoyed, and then Jiang Shan unfolded a piece of paper, and read the names of several people accordingly.

   "These people..."

  Phaedra Gale pondered for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "These people are the union chairmen of the industry, representing labor, and have great energy. Why do you want to meet them?"

  He didn't understand the other party's intention for a while.

"do you know?"

Zhong Shi said, "Since you told me about corruption last time, I have been thinking about this issue. You may not know that before the 1980s, corruption in Hong Kong was also very serious, and some people even swept away 500 million Hong Kong dollars, converted into about 10 billion Hong Kong dollars today, converted to more than 1 billion U.S. dollars. But since the establishment of the ICAC, an agency specializing in anti-corruption, the whole Hong Kong, whether it is a government agency or a commercial company, has immediately taken on a new look. Although corruption has not been completely eradicated, Hong Kong today has become one of the most clean and efficient regions in the world."

"Of course, this has a lot to do with the determination of the British Hong Kong government at that time. This is the most different place between Greece and Hong Kong. After I went back, I searched for some information and finally found the problem with Greece, that is, you lack an efficient, clean and competent Deterrent government. In other words, the government’s deterrence to ordinary public servants is not enough, which leads to the occurrence of private corruption, and then spreads to various industries. Therefore, if we want to change all the current things, we must first re-establish a strong Second, through this powerful government to restrain the behavior of public servants, and finally achieve the goal of cleaning up and rectifying the whole society.”

   "If this is the case, then Greece will no longer be a corrupt country in your perception. Once the government is clear and the social atmosphere is correct, the whole country will develop in a positive direction. This is a positive cycle."

  Zhong Shi spoke eloquently, with a solemn expression and a sonorous and forceful tone. He wants to impress the other party through this way of talking.

"so…"

As an adult with independent thinking ability, Phaedra Gale would not be persuaded by Zhong Shi's light words, but seeing Zhong Shi speak so seriously, he had to take this issue seriously , "I still have two questions: first, why did you choose Greece as your test field; second, why is the object of cooperation is the labor union?"

   "Because I'm a rich man!"

Zhong Shi didn't answer his question directly, but said a seemingly irrelevant sentence, which made Phaedra Gale a little puzzled for a while, "This is what other people think of me, maybe people all over the world I think so. But deep down in my heart, I am more inclined to be an idealist, an idealist who wants to benefit the world and even all mankind. The difference from the super rich in the United States who are immersed in the latest technology is , I prefer to solve practical problems."

"Their goal is to promote scientific and technological progress, and then seek the well-being of the next generation and even the next generation of mankind. But I want to solve the problem now, right now, for the benefit of this generation of mankind. The reason why Greece is chosen is because first of all it It is a small country with strong operability. Secondly, this is a civilized society, and everything we do is a legitimate appeal, which is realized through voting methods stipulated in the Constitution. Also, you underestimated the power of trade unions, In fact, only trade unions can mobilize the entire class, which is a force that no one can underestimate. Only when the whole people mobilize can corruption in the entire country be taken seriously and resolved.”

"You know Soros, people think of him as a hedge fund manager, super rich. But he is also a sociologist, that is, at our level, money is just a number, one zero more or one less, to us Soros has no meaning at all. So we have to do something that is meaningful to us. For example, what we are talking about now, Soros has done it. He once set up charitable social funds in some countries in Eastern Europe, It is used to study social forms. This has greatly inspired me, so I also regard such behavior as my ideal, that is, to do something meaningful."

   "I'm more of a sociologist than a rich guy. Well, I love that title!"

   Zhong Shi finally concluded.

   "Are these really the only reasons?"

  Phaedra Gale was obviously not convinced, "There should be some other reasons, right?"

   "The whole purpose is like this, but we can't control the process."

  Zhong Shi shook his head slightly, "But as long as we firmly move towards that goal and gather the strength of the whole people, I believe it will be realized one day, isn't it?"
