There is something like this? Li Lihua was stunned when he heard this!

He could not imagine that a person working overtime on weekends, but most of the income from overtime was taken away by the state in the name of tax collection. Instead, those idle lazy men were lying at home for a day and watching TV for a day, and they didn't have to be taxed! He couldn't help but say, "Isn't this reward for laziness and punishment for diligence?"

"Yes, that's right."

"But...what is such a reason?" Li Lihua didn't think that Director Chen was lying on such a thing, so the actual situation of those high-welfare countries in Europe and the United States is really like this? Damn! Those who made this regulation are crazy. How could the state encourage their citizens to be lazy?

Chen Geng did not answer, and then said, "This is more than that, because of the high welfare and policies of these countries that encourage birth control, many immigrants to Africa in these countries, and those immigrants with low cultural level in the Middle East do not work, but give birth to children at home every day. The family raises a large group of people who live on welfare funds provided by the government and houses provided by the government... You can't say that even if you don't work, as long as you have enough children, the country will give you a lot of living expenses every month."

"Damn!"

Li Lihua was really stupid. He couldn't imagine how crazy the government would have formulated such a regulation: if you don't go out to work, you will live by having children at home?

"Do you think the government that formulates such a welfare policy is stupid?"

"Silly!" Li Lihua nodded heavily and said without thinking: "No matter what, it is not a reason to not work. It is easy to raise a large group of lazy people, and it is not conducive to cultivating the upward atmosphere of the entire country and nation."

"You are right," Chen Geng nodded, "But this is the vote. Everyone knows that this welfare system is not a good thing for the entire country and the nation. The politician who proposed to establish such a welfare system also knows it, but why is this welfare system approved and implemented?"

After a long silence, Li Lihua said, "It's the vote."

Apart from votes, there is no other explanation. Such a welfare system is certainly not a good thing for the entire country and the entire nation, but for a specific person, it is an absolute good thing. Who doesn’t want to have money to spend money in bed every day? Why don’t you support politicians who can make money in bed?

On the contrary, if a politician proposes to abolish this welfare system during an election, he will be immediately despised by voters across the country because his approach hinders the right to spend money without working. Although doing so is not good for the country and the nation, it is good for me. This is enough. How much does the country have to do with me?

Chen Geng nodded slightly, quite satisfied with Li Lihua's performance.

"But... why do they do this?" Li Lihua frowned, still a little confused: "Since they can reach the position of the head of state and the main heads of various departments of the country, their minds will definitely not be insufficient. It is impossible not to know the disadvantages of doing this to this country. Why do they do this? What is the deep-seated reason for doing this? It is impossible just because of the votes, right?"

"Smart!" With a thumbs up, Chen Geng became more and more satisfied with Li Lihua. Most people really couldn't imagine the deep-seated reason why these politicians did this: "My personal guess is for the sake of domination."

"rule?"

"To put it more directly, it is a policy of fooling the people," Chen Geng asked, "How much do you know about the Western education system?"

"Uh... I'm not very clear," Li Lihua shook his head honestly: "I knew that education in European and American countries is very developed. The two most powerful universities in our country: Huaqing and Peking University, which can't even rank in the top 50 in the world university rankings."

It’s not just the top 100. It’s a shame to say that the two most important universities in the Republic, Huaqing and Peking University, are now in the world, whether they can rank 100, but they definitely can’t get into the top 70. If they can’t get into the top 50, they’re definitely going to be gilded on their faces.

"Do you know that these famous universities in Europe and the United States, the Ivy League schools that seem to be very powerful among many international students, including Haval, MIT, Stanford, Princeton, Cambridge and even the University of Paris, are actually private schools?"

"They are all private schools?" Li Lihua was surprised and could stuff a goose egg into his mouth: Are you kidding?

But he understood that Mr. Chen could not joke with him about such things, that is it true?

"The good universities and high schools in the United States are all private schools, and the same is true in Europe. These countries actually take two completely different educational paths: public and private. The purpose of private education is to cultivate the elites of society. The famous lawyers, politicians, entrepreneurs in the United States... Almost all the elites in society come from these top universities and enjoy elite education;

The so-called public universities that most ordinary people enter are actually to get a diploma and have the basic ability to work for the elite. To put it bluntly, the purpose of public education is to provide the elite with a certain level of knowledge and can be exploited.

Some people say that American college students’ math level is not as good as our junior high school students. This is not a joke, but this so-called ‘American college students’ refers to those college students from public universities.”

“…”

Li Lihua was shocked and didn't know what to say. If this was said by others, he would definitely doubt it, but if this was said by Mr. Chen, he seemed to have no need to doubt it. After all, if the top American schools are public or private schools, you can find out by just one investigation. There is no need for Mr. Chen to lie about such things.

Since Mr. Chen is not lying, what he is saying is true? What he is hiding under the glorious appearance of European and American countries is actually such a naked, bloody conspiracy?!

Li Lihua couldn't accept it. Thanks to the reform and opening up over the years, everyone's understanding of the West has changed from "the Western people are living in dire straits, waiting for us international communist soldiers to rescue" to "Damn it! It turns out that capitalism is so good, ordinary people have cars and villas every family lives?!" Isn't this much the same as communism? Who is communism and who is capitalism?

Seeing Li Lihua's shocked worldview being subverted, Chen Geng empathized with it: I thought that he had also gone to Germany with this vision of a beautiful capitalist world and went to Germany, but only after he really lived abroad did he know that the beauty of capitalism that was boasted by countless dogs and psycho-flies in China was just donkey dung eggs with gorgeous appearance. In fact, it was not the case at all. Those who boasted about how many good dogs and psycho-flies were leading parties abroad who took the benefits of others, and the remaining 1% were latecomers who were fooled by the previous dogs and psycho-flies.

As for now, Chen Geng doesn't want his secretary to be a brainwashed idiot.

The Czechoslovak government, Skoda Automobile and the Republic's Embassy in Czechoslovakia attached great importance to the arrival of Runhua Industrial and its delegation. The embassy even sent Chen Geng's old acquaintances: Counselor Wang Ke, accompanied by Czechoslovak Minister of Commerce Batosk, Skoda Automobile General Manager Granville, Runhua Industrial and Wolfburg Automobile's relevant negotiators to the airport to welcome Chen Geng and his party. The appearance of Counselor Wang Ke represented the central government of the Republic attach great importance to Runhua Industrial's acquisition of Skoda Automobile.

"Counselor Wang, why are you here?" Chen Geng was surprised and was very happy. He did not choose a regular handshake but hugged him vigorously.

"You are the son-in-law of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, of course I want to come." Wang Ke was also very happy to see Chen Geng. What made him even more happy was that this acquisition case he was extremely unpromising was actually turned into by Chen Geng. Because of Runhua Industrial's acquisition of Skoda Automobile, many of the embassy's work in Czechoslovakia went a lot, and for this, he wanted to come to the airport to greet him.

After slapping Wang Ke’s back twice, Chen Geng said, “Ha... let’s talk later.”

Wang Ke nodded with understanding: "Okay, let's talk later."

"Mr. Chen, welcome to Czechoslovakia again," Czechoslovak Minister of Commerce Batosk smiled enthusiastically, and followed him to extend his hand to Chen Geng, but when he occasionally looked at the plane behind Chen Geng, his eyes were a little envious.

Compared with the previous meetings, Chen Geng could clearly feel that Batosk was a little more enthusiastic about him. He knew very well why this was: it had something to do with Wolfburg Auto.

Runhua Industrial was able to join forces with Wolfburg Auto to acquire Skoda, which itself shows that Runhua Industrial's strength has been recognized by Wolfburg Auto. Wolfburg Auto is a top European automobile manufacturer. Since Runhua Industrial can be recognized by them, it is enough to show that Runhua Industrial's strength has reached a certain level.

"Mr. Minister, I am also very happy to see you again," Chen Geng said politely: "Minister Wang of the Ministry of Commerce of my country specially entrusted me to greet you and wish you a smooth work."

"Thank you very much. Please also ask Mr. Chen to help me say hello to the minister. In addition, I would like to invite Minister Wang to visit and visit Czechoslovakia at a convenient time as the Minister of Commerce of Czechoslovakia." This is a common way to communicate official visits in an unofficial channel. Chen Geng agreed happily and said that he would definitely convey to Minister Wang, but whether Minister Wang would agree or not, he would not guarantee when he had time - anyway, he was just a message. Whether Minister Wang agreed or when he came to visit had nothing to do with him.

However, seeing that the Wolfburger came to pick him up was not the supervisor of the Supervisory Board, Stephen Ostro, but a guy he didn't know, Chen Geng frowned slightly: From the acquisition manager to the specific executor, Chen Geng knew that Stephen Ostro had an objection to him, but this guy dared not to come?

Feeling Chen Geng’s unhappiness, the representative of Wolfburg Automobile quickly stepped forward and explained: “Hello, Mr. Chen, I am Edward, the head of Wolfburg Automobile in Czechoslovakia. Mr. Ostro needs to go back to the headquarters to report some situation to the board of directors. I am currently responsible for this.”

"Hello, Mr. Edward." Chen Geng nodded, looking very understanding: "Mr. Ostro has returned to China? I hope everything goes well for him."

"Thank you," Edward said politely: "Mr. Piech just called and he will arrive tomorrow at noon. He hopes to communicate and communicate with you about some things as soon as possible."

"certainly……"

After getting into Runhua Industrial's car, Chen Geng's brows frowned. He asked Gong Jianjun, who had been in charge of this matter for the past period of time, in a deep voice: "Fourth brother, what's going on with this Stephen Ostro?"

"I'm not very clear," Gong Jianjun said in a deep voice: "But he was still in Czechoslovakia the day before yesterday."

"That's how..." Chen Geng sneered: "There are quite a lot of small conspiracies from the Germans. It seems that they are still uncomfortable with our investment."

"Yes, I heard people from the Wolf Castle say that they suffered a lot of losses when we invest in it." When talking about this, Gong Jianjun felt indignant.

"It's okay, they will find that they said too early..."

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Ferdinand Piech was indeed not late, saying that he would arrive at noon the next day and noon the next day. Facing Chen Geng who came to the airport to greet him, after some greetings, Ferdinand Piech asked Chen Geng almost without any concealment: "Mr. Chen, I heard that you have gained a good harvest in the oil futures market?"

In this Iraq War, countless speculators who believed that this war would inevitably be like the previous Middle East wars. The war would cause oil prices to soar because of the war. It is already a blessing that those who lost their pants were left. At least a pair of shorts were left, and there were many people who went bankrupt directly. However, amid the wail, the performance of a capital shocked almost everyone to lose their chin: the performance of this fund before and after this war was almost stuck to the top and bottom dead centers of oil futures. The investment manager of this fund was so sharp that his attacks were so accurate, and his profits were so huge that countless people had broken their glasses!

Although it is not certain that the owner of this fund is Runhua Industrial, Ferdinand Piech always feels that there must be some connection between Runhua Industrial and this fund.

"I really made some money." Faced with the temptation of Ferdinand Piech, Chen Geng admitted openly.
