Chapter 959: A Clear Future_2
Europeans have always pursued ideological domination of the world, and when the Americas reach out to them, they can't hold on.
The rules of this world are about to change, and France or other countries need a way out, or rather, a new choice."
Gami listened in disbelief and said, "America and Europe's finances are highly interconnected, they can't force European industrial capital to shift..."
Joe Ga spread his hands and said, "Who can say for sure?
As far as I know, the America Energy Group is preparing to burst the domestic shale oil bubble and then reintegrate the shale oil industry.
This will take about three years, and once the shale oil industry gains momentum, they will be looking for buyers worldwide.
The cost of extracting shale oil is nearly $60 a barrel, and America's natural gas extraction costs aren't cheap either.
To make money, they have to sell at high prices, and the only ones who can afford it are Europeans.
Germans have connected a pipeline from Russia, reaping the energy dividends, and are now preparing to connect a second pipeline...
With the power of the Energy Group and the many conflicts within America, do you think they might resort to underhanded tactics?
As long as cheap oil and gas are cut off, Europe's industrial costs will rise to unbearable levels.
If at that time the military-industrial complex jumps in to push a war, Europe's industrial capital will not only flee, but financial capital will also escape to America for refuge.
If I were you, I would prepare, and when the time comes, putting money in the stock market will make you a fortune.
But today I've realized something; money is the most unreliable thing.
Assets, especially those within the reach of my fists, are the most valuable things!
So we really should change our mindset and set up an investment bank in England, then go purchase valuable assets, and that's the right way."
Saying this, Joe Ga looked at the shocked face of Gami, spread his hands and said, "Don't be like that, this is an overt strategy, and given America's character, there's a good chance it will happen, Europeans simply can't resist.
Unless Russia collapses dramatically like the Soviet Union once did, allowing them to take a huge bite to recover...
Otherwise, I bet within fifteen years, Europeans' good days will be over."
Gami listened and remained silent for a long time, finally looking up at Joe Ga and saying, "Do you think there will be a war?"
Joe Ga spread his hands and said, "It's not what I think, but the situation just is that way.
If they want to eat meat, they have to find a fat pig to slaughter, and Russia and China are the best targets.
One is an energy giant, the other is a cheap factory and consumer market; as long as these two are kept down forever, their days will always be good.
For Europe, the only question is whether they can withstand America's bloodletting while collapsing one of the two.
As long as one falls, they can feast lavishly and live comfortably for another 50 years."
Gami, the eldest princess of a Swedish industrial giant, felt extremely worried after hearing Joe Ga's judgment.
If a war really happens, even if it's just a Cold War starting, it will cause the whole world to be torn apart.
By then, no one can stay uninvolved; as long as the scale reaches a certain level, they have to step in and bet.
If they bet wrong, those assets would shrink significantly!
Looking at Joe Ga's indifferent manner, Gami suddenly chuckled...
This guy isn't clueless about finance, but his strategic foresight is definitely worth trusting.
He's betting on Africa, wanting to skip the inevitable shattered world and place heavy bets on the African continent!
He even thought of how to hold back the French, Gami couldn't think of any reason not to follow his lead!
Gami is a typical queen-type strong woman; once she decides on something, she focuses on seeing it through.
She hugged Joe Ga fiercely and said seriously, "According to your estimate, we actually don't have much time to prepare.
I will specifically look for someone to establish an evaluation and investigation company to thoroughly evaluate various industries in Congo, and to set a trap for the French to step in, we need to act convincingly.
Congo's basic industry still has certain potential; as long as Qiao Liang's port plan is announced, and it's clear to the outside world Congo's determination to connect all its cities, we can raise the value of those industries."
Gami kissed Joe Ga on the cheek and said earnestly, "Let your little brain rest for a while; leave this kind of stuff to me to figure out, you focus on controlling the broader situation.
You're right, the best way to hedge funds is to buy assets, particularly those within a punch's reach.
Our Pirate Fund's investment strategy needs to change a bit!"
Joe Ga looked at Gami, who seemed eager to work immediately, and laughed, saying, "No need to rush; there's still time, and in Congo, we're definitely holding a vast advantage.
Let's not think about those long-term things; help me solve the problem in South Kivu Province first.
I can no longer understand the bank's accounts, particularly needing someone who knows their stuff to bring South Kivu Province on track.
As long as we firmly hold North Kivu Province and South Kivu Province, we can remain undefeated.
Assets may depreciate with population shifts, but non-ferrous metals certainly won't!"
Gami listened, nodded vigorously, and said, "I've already completed the preliminary investigation of the mining sector in South Kivu Province; I'll handle this affair."
Saying this, Gami patted her forehead, looked at Joe Ga and said, "'The Fly' also came this time, sent by Nis to help.
'The Fly' has provided me with significant assistance in South Kivu Province; this guy, with a background in intelligence, is meticulous and ruthless, perfectly suited to stay in Kinshasa and preside over the situation.
There are some things we can't execute directly, so let 'The Fly' take the lead...
With the military power of P·B providing a deterrent, within six months at most, we can bring South Kivu Province under control!"
Joe Ga almost forgot about 'The Fly'; this veteran French intelligence officer, who took the fall for the French top brass in Monaco, was then transferred to Liberia temporarily and was soon inspired by Joe Ga to resign and join P·B.
This guy is formidable, clear-headed, and extremely capable in execution.
Joe Ga had redeployed most of the main force from Tubruq, and no trouble has arisen there since, thanks to him.
Nis is truly the queen of Tubruq; her willingness to transfer 'The Fly' out indicates that Tubruq's situation is in great shape.
Thompson is indeed too busy; 'The Fly' is definitely the best candidate to control the situation in Kinshasa.
Actually, Frester is also a good option, but Joe Ga still wants to get some intelligence from the CIA, so this guy has to stay and work in the CIA for a while.
People who train top agents for a directorial path, there's probably only one like Joe Ga in the world.
Those in P·B's intelligence department are used like jack-of-all-trades workhorses, sent wherever needed; whether that's their fortune or misfortune is anyone's guess.
