450: Never compromise!
Joint sanctions...
Sanctions of this scale are tricky, even for the Leader.
Because this is equivalent to the entire world imposing sanctions on Dragon Country, and Dragon Country itself has an export-oriented economy; to a certain extent, its economic activities are actually highly dependent on foreign trade!
This current policy, which is similar to adding tariffs globally, seems like just an increase in taxes.
In essence, it's like boiling a frog in warm water!
It can be said that the damage to Dragon Country's economy is enormous. If this matter cannot be handled properly soon, the damage to Dragon Country's economy will be exceptionally huge!
In the previous life, even a single Ugly Country imposing economic sanctions on Dragon Country made Dragon Country barely hold on, suffering considerable losses.
This was also because in the previous life, goods could be exported from Mexico and then re-exported to Ugly Country, allowing Dragon Country's goods to still be sold.
So it didn't cause significant damage to Dragon Country.
But in this life...
A better solution must be found!
Guo Hao's brows furrowed slightly.
It's just... what's a better way to do it?
Guo Hao sat in the car, his brows tightly furrowed, and a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes.
Does he really have to hand over the controllable nuclear fusion technology?
Guo Hao was very reluctant to do so!
Or start a war?
Obviously, doing so would not be very meaningful, and there would be no justified reason for war.
If such a war were fought, it wouldn't get the support of most people. After all, they only imposed some sanctions on you from an economic perspective.
There was no intention of war threat. It's hard to say who the target of war would be at this time!
Moreover, Dragon Country does not currently have the absolute strength. Starting a war with Ugly Country would likely lead to a quagmire of war.
In that case, the overall loss of strength for Dragon Country would be too great!
Ugly Country has experts!
Guo Hao sighed slightly.
This is Ugly Country's goal.
Using the fear and greed of countries around the world towards controllable nuclear fusion technology, and then forming alliances, it must not have been easy for them to achieve this.
They probably promised quite a few things as well.
After all, although Ugly Country is still the world's number one, it's hard to say whether these mainstream countries in the world, including Russia and Saudi Arabia, would stand on Ugly Country's side.
Even if Ugly Country promised them some things.
But!
The appearance of Controlled nuclear fusion itself is a huge blow to oil exports and the future of oil.
Therefore, they need to stand with Ugly Country and put pressure on Dragon Country!
Thinking of these complex international situations, Guo Hao's brows were tightly locked, and he rubbed his aching forehead.
"Where to, Professor?"
Xu Yuan asked Guo Hao.
"Let's go to Yan... Zizhu Mountain Villa!"
Guo Hao originally wanted to say Yan Aviation, but after a slight hesitation, Guo Hao still decided to go to Zizhu Mountain Villa.
The situation is a bit troublesome. Guo Hao needs to see if there's a way to resolve this matter!
It's not that Guo Hao is worried about Nine Heavens Energy's one hundred billion, that money was borrowed from the bank in the first place.
Guo Hao doesn't need to worry about that.
What Guo Hao is concerned about is only the future of Dragon Country.
Away from the rivers and lakes, one worries about the people; high in the temple, one worries about the ruler.
As for Guo Hao's current state, although he does not hold power, in fact, he is indeed the scientist with the greatest influence on Dragon Country.
Even the high-level officials will be influenced by him. His opinion is very important!
Even the upper levels need to attach great importance to it.
Therefore, Guo Hao must think about these things, because if according to the ideas of some people in the think tank, the controllable nuclear fusion technology can simply be handed over completely!
Announce it globally!
So that the world's technology can have significant development.
But!
Guo Hao is unwilling to do this!
Because announcing this technology will not bring any tangible benefits to the people on Earth. On the contrary, it will only greatly benefit those big countries and large capitals!
Because they are the ones who control enough resources.
This kind of technology, this kind of project, controllable nuclear fusion, only they can achieve it besides Dragon Country!
So, who can benefit?
It can only be them!
Just thinking about it is sickening!
It was clearly Dragon Country that spent a large amount of manpower, material resources, time, and resources to create the controllable nuclear fusion technology.
As a result, those large capitals just colluded and directly took away the technology.
This kind of thing feels disgusting no matter how you think about it!
Guo Hao will absolutely not let this happen!
Just as Guo Hao was thinking about countermeasures.
At this time, world public opinion had completely exploded.
"Damn! Before, I thought it was just Dragon Country unilaterally tearing up the contract. I didn't expect the whole world to follow suit now?"
"Damn it, these countries are truly shameless! Isn't it just for the controllable nuclear fusion technology? They say it nicely, just simple economic sanctions, f**k! These idiots!!!!"
"But what should we do now! Our country is still very dependent on exports now! Now, almost all tariffs imposed on us by the whole world have tacitly increased by more than twenty percent.
Our country's economy is arguably struggling now! What should we do, what should we do?"
"Actually, there's no need to be so anxious. Tariffs don't necessarily have to be borne by us. Things like this..."
are inherently borne by their own people and our goods together. By doing this, besides pushing up domestic inflation, its significance shouldn't be as high as imagined, right!"
"Indeed! Tariff wars are actually very foolish. Europe, however, has been quite ruthless, directly prohibiting the transfer of high-tech industries to Dragon Country."
And they have imposed a complete blockade on our country in terms of technology and education. Ugly Country is the same, also prohibiting cooperation between many high-tech industries and Dragon Country!"
"Alas! What to do? In the short term, the damage to Dragon Country doesn't seem that great, but in the long term, these policies are almost devastating to our Dragon Country!"
"The short term is not small either! Although Dragon Country is the world's factory, if our prices no longer have an absolute advantage, it's not difficult to understand that the industrial chain will slowly relocate to other countries.
Even some countries within our own country might choose to move some factories to neighboring countries. It's very troublesome!"
In Dragon Country's public opinion circles, this matter is being discussed almost everywhere, and most people are worried.
Some opinions have even emerged, suggesting to just directly announce the controllable nuclear fusion technology.
Or use the controllable nuclear fusion technology to negotiate with certain countries again.
In short, everyone has their own guesses and ideas.
But on the global internet, the situation is completely different!
"Hahaha! Dragon Country people deserve it! Especially that Professor Guo, who even wants to create a purely Chinese journal. Since that's the case, they deserve to be isolated by the whole world!"
"That's right! By doing this, they brought it upon themselves!"
"Uh, I don't care about that. I only care if my clothes will increase in price, after all, they are really produced in Dragon Country!"
"Price increases in the short term are inevitable, but in the long run, the probability of price decreases is greater!"
