It was already 11:30 p.m. when Minister Lorencino and Rodriguez came out of the hotel and got into the vehicle parked outside the consulate.
Fang Mingyuan stood on the balcony, opened the window, and the sea breeze with some moisture quickly rushed into the room.
"Mingyuan, how's the talk going?" Lin Rong walked in lightly, stood behind Fang Mingyuan and asked.
"This Lorencino is a smart man!" Fang Mingyuan said, "He may have guessed that I have the purpose of suppressing the entry of genetically modified soybeans into Argentina by taking this opportunity."
Lin Rong smiled sweetly and said, "It doesn't matter if you guessed it? Will genetically modified soybeans be planted on a large scale in Argentina? Does the farmer plant genetically modified soybeans or non-genetically modified soybeans? Does it affect him? He is the leader of the Argentine economy and The Minister of Public Finance, not the Minister of Agriculture! If Argentina fails to repay its foreign debts, the current government will be in danger of collapse. Is genetically modified soybeans important, or to avoid financial crises, corporate crises, political crises, and social crises in Argentina? Is it important to be hit hard? Smart people will definitely choose the most suitable result for themselves and the country.”
Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but laugh. As Lin Rong said, if he guessed it, so what?Lorencino has no choice, and neither has the Argentine government!
Because they didn't get the Huaxia wild soybeans that they should have, Mengchandu Company underestimated Fang Mingyuan's determination in this matter. Although they also wanted to obtain wild soybean seeds from Huaxia through various channels, they couldn't. One success.This also caused the research and development and promotion of genetically modified soybeans of Mengzendu Company to be compared with the previous life.Seriously lagging.Until now, even in the United States itself, the genetically modified soybeans in the country only accounted for 15.00% of all soybean production.Argentina has only just begun to promote it, and it is far from reaching the point where it has become a reality.As for Brazil, the Brazilian government currently strictly prohibits genetically modified plants and does not allow them to be planted in the country.
In the previous life, Fang Mingyuan didn't know the data of this time period.But he knows that by 80.00, 20.00% of soybeans in the United States are genetically modified soybeans, almost [-]% in Argentina, and [-]% of soybeans in Brazil are genetically modified.
If Monzento could be confused from the very beginning, maybe the genetically modified crops would not expand rapidly around the world as they did in the previous life.
Fang Mingyuan was not opposed to technological progress.But as he once said, not every technological advancement is a good thing for human beings.Maybe.Improper use of a certain technology is the death knell for human beings.Before there is no conclusive and credible evidence to prove that genetically modified crops are harmless, Fang Mingyuan does not want his own countrymen to be the group of guinea pigs.
and.What Fang Mingyuan was more worried about was that once Mengchandu Company succeeded, it would spread the genetically modified crops.At that time, the domestic officials and businessmen only saw that the oil content of genetically modified soybeans was two to five percentage points higher, and that the high-protein soybean meal with premium price could be processed at the same time to generate greater economic benefits. They saw that domestically produced soybeans not only did not have Those advantages, on the contrary, are more expensive than genetically modified soybeans, so they are imported in large quantities, and they are called in the name of freeing up more fields for the country to grow other crops, but they ignore that in this way, it is the consumption of national edible oil. Control was ceded to foreigners.
Fang Mingyuan remembered that after 5000, Huaxia imported more than 80.00 million tons of soybeans every year, accounting for 15.00% of the total amount of soybeans that year!In other words, domestic soybeans accounted for only 5000% of them!And in the future, once a war breaks out, the three major soybean-producing countries in the Americas will no longer export soybeans to China, so what should we do? The huge quantity of [-] million tons, even if the sum of all other soybean exporting countries is gathered together, it cannot guarantee China's demand.
Soybeans are not clothes, socks, steamed buns, etc. They can be produced in a short period of time. Even if we still have seeds, we can expand the planting in the second year, it will only be the second year!
"Mingyuan, do you really want to buy so many soybeans?" Lin Rong asked softly.Although Fang Mingyuan didn't hide this plan from her and discussed it with her again and again, Lin Rong still couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Once the contract is signed, in 60, But it is necessary to prepare 15 billion US dollars to buy Argentine soybeans, otherwise, the [-] billion US dollars will really be in vain.
"It's okay. Even if the price of soybeans drops by then, we won't be able to lose much money!" Fang Mingyuan put his arm around her shoulder and said with a smile, "But if I guess right, the profit will at least double. Don't worry, we can afford it now!" With the strong domestic demand and non-GMO soybeans, it is easy for Fang Mingyuan to sell them.
"Where's Yuxin?" Fang Mingyuan asked.Lin Rong's body also carried the aroma of shower gel, mixed with her body fragrance, which made people feel intoxicated.
"She played for a day, and just now she yelled to go to bed early, and she has already gone back to her room to rest." Lin Rong smiled, but her face was a little blush.
"It's getting late, so let's rest too." Fang Mingyuan smiled.
"Yeah!" Lin Rong replied in an inaudible voice.
Fang Mingyuan rested here, but Lorencino and the others returned to the Argentine Consulate in Rio de Janeiro, but they didn't care about rest at all.
"Gure, what do you think about what this person said?" Minister Lorencino asked Rodriguez bluntly.In the second half of the conversation, their topic was not limited to soybean trading. Regarding the current chaos in Argentina, Minister Lorencino also asked Fang Mingyuan for his opinion.Although Fang Mingyuan didn't express his point of view clearly and unmistakably, the implication of what he said was that he was obviously not very optimistic about the future of the current Argentine government.
"Minister, I think what he said still makes some sense." Rodriguez said carefully after considering his words, "His payment of 15 billion US dollars can only be used for emergencies, but it is impossible to completely change Argentina's current predicament." And if this situation cannot be broken, no matter whether it is a debt crisis or a government crisis, it will come after all, but it will be delayed for a while.”
"Hmph!" Minister Lorencino snorted lightly.He also understands that the mere 15 billion US dollars can only delay the outbreak of chaos in Argentina for some time. The reason why Argentina is in its current situation is also a major outbreak of conflicts accumulated over the years.Compared with the debt of as high as 300 billion US dollars, 15 billion US dollars can only be said to be a drop in the bucket, and if it is 150 billion US dollars, it is almost the same.It's just that he also understands that with the current situation in Argentina, whoever dares to spend 150 billion US dollars to help Argentina stabilize the society is not afraid that this huge sum of money will be in vain in Argentina.It is already a very good result to be able to get the 15 billion U.S. dollars and delay the outbreak of turmoil a little longer.
However, Fang Mingyuan's words reminded him that if this soybean transaction works well, although it cannot save the Argentine government, it can save his own career.
Lorencino and the current president belong to the same political party. If the president is forced to resign, it stands to reason that he will also resign along with it.When the new president takes office, as the so-called emperor and courtier, such an important position as the Minister of Economy and Public Finance is definitely a fat job in people's eyes.
However, if he is able to reach such a deal with Fang Mingyuan, which may eventually reach a total of 240 billion U.S. dollars, those people will have to consider whether they will let Fang Mingyuan It felt that the Argentine government was unable to guarantee the actual performance of the contract.You know, even if there are ten more presidents, the foreign debt of 300 billion US dollars is a sword of Damos, which may cut them off the presidency at any time.
Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth fulfillment of this transaction, Lorencino's position in the government can only be promoted, or stay in his original position, and must not be demoted, and cannot give Fang Mingyuan a wrong message.
Thinking of this, Minister Lorencino couldn't help but curl up his mouth. This trip to Rio de Janeiro was not in vain. In this way, at least he found a way out for himself.As long as this contract can be officially signed, his status can be said to be at ease.
But... He remembered another thing Fang Mingyuan mentioned, about the devaluation of the Argentine currency, the peso.Although, until now, although the international community generally believes that in order to deal with the current predicament, the Argentine government will significantly devalue the currency peso.However, the Argentine government's external caliber is quite consistent, and it will never allow the peso to depreciate.
The top government officials are planning to launch a new currency control decree. The current draft of this decree will limit the transfer of funds from home to abroad, and at the same time stipulate that Argentine citizens can only withdraw cash from their accounts no more than 250 US dollars a week.Thereby ensuring that these banks in Argentina avoid the fate of being run on.
But to be honest, Lorencino is not optimistic about this decree. As Fang Mingyuan said, this will only make the international community and the Argentine people think that the devaluation of the peso is imminent. If it shrinks significantly, the social contradictions in Argentina will be further intensified.It will only bring more trouble to Argentina in the future. (To be continued..)
