Chapter 174 Major Events
After a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, Mr. Jiang said again: "I've noted it all down. Mr. Li, please continue."
Li Chengqian continued: "Then there was the Second Persian Gulf War in 2003, which was launched by America with a packet of laundry detergent."
"Shadamu was captured alive in this battle and sentenced to hanging. Except for Persia and Desert Rose, almost all of the desert area was controlled by America. America's strength reached its peak."
"Everyone should note that during this period, we should still focus on economic development. We must not confront America head-on. We must bide our time, accumulate strength, and wait for the arrival of a major change that has not happened in a century."
A major change that has not happened in a century!!!
The policy of keeping a low profile and focusing on economic development that Li Chengqian mentioned was actually the established strategy of the top leaders.
This is all easy to understand.
However, this major change, which has not happened in a century, has also led to the worsening of the situation in the desert area!
You have to know that at that time, 80% of Longguo's oil and natural gas came from desert areas.
America's control of the desert means that Dragon Country's energy lifeline is in the hands of others.
However, several senior executives grasped the key points.
There are still two countries, Persia and Desert Rose, that have not been taken down.
These two countries are the last anti-America forces in the desert and must be preserved.
The first thing they thought of was to contact Russia because these two regions are also geostrategic locations for Russia.
Mr. Jiang looked at everyone and said again: "We all understand, Mr. Li, please continue."
Li Chengqian's tone suddenly became serious at this time.
"Another very important event in 2003 was the outbreak of the Feidian virus. The virus was first discovered in Shunde, Guangdong Province, in early November 2002."
"This is a highly contagious respiratory disease that has spread across the country in a short period of time. You should take precautions in advance."
"I suggest setting up a unified emergency response department, led by the state, to coordinate and direct local health departments to make preparations and minimize the losses."
"The most important point is that I suspect this is a virus developed by the American Virus Laboratory targeting the genes of our Dragon people. Although this is just my guess, I think this possibility is very high!!"
"This outbreak was not serious and the death toll was not high, but the subsequent outbreak of the coronavirus at the end of December 2019 caused tens of thousands of deaths and the virus spread to the whole world."
"I suspect this is also the result of the American Virus Laboratory."
There was silence on the phone again.
These pieces of news were like bolts from the blue, and the top management was unable to react for a while.
Li Chengqian continued, "I think the outbreak of these two public health incidents is inevitable. America has many ways to transmit the virus to China, and it is impossible to prevent it. What we need to do is to prepare response measures in advance. If a city needs to be closed, it must be closed. If a country needs to be closed, it must also be closed."
"We must not let America's plot to turn Longguo into an epidemic area succeed. You senior officials should know better than me how to weigh the pros and cons."
Mr. Jiang on the other end of the phone replied: "We have taken note of Mr. Li's suggestions, and we will carefully consider your ideas when the time comes."
Li Chengqian continued, "Another important researcher has unfortunately died. You must avoid tragedy."
"Who?"
"Soybean expert Zhuang Bingchang was a key figure in my country's efforts to break free from Western soybean control, but he was stabbed to death by a few kids in Laiyang in 2002. I suggest that the country send special personnel to protect expert Zhuang Bingchang. As long as he and Mr. Yuan are here, we can keep our jobs."
Mr. Jiang turned around and looked at several senior executives because he didn't know Zhuang Bingchang very well.
Fortunately, someone among the senior leaders knew Zhuang Bingchang and immediately ordered someone to protect him.
Li Chengqian continued: "Next I will talk about the major natural geographical disasters that have occurred in our country in recent years."
“首先是2008年5月12日发生的汶川地震，还有2010年4月14日发生的青海玉树地震......”
Li Chengqian talked about some typhoons, snow disasters, earthquakes, floods, etc. that he could remember.
But the focus is still on the first two earthquakes mentioned.
On the other end of the phone, the recorder kept recording.
At this time, they finally realized the importance of a national emergency management department.
Faced with these disasters of historic magnitude, local governments are unable to provide timely rescue and relief, and the country needs to step in and respond to emergencies in a timely manner.
"Mr. Li, are all of what you said true? Will so many people die?"
Li Chengqian sighed: "Earthquakes cannot be avoided, but as long as we prepare in advance, we can minimize the losses and casualties."
"There is another important point that you should all understand, which is the deployment of national defense during disasters to prevent some countries from taking the opportunity to invade or cause trouble when a major crisis occurs in the country."
"Mr. Li is right. We have a plan for this."
Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief. The country had indeed considered this aspect. It seemed that he was worrying about nothing.
"But I still want to thank Mr. Li for the reminder. Mr. Li, please continue."
Li Chengqian glanced at Li Shimin, Li Jing and others who had already walked out of McDonald's, and continued speaking in another place.
"Then came the 2008 financial crisis, which was a global economic crisis triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States."
"From what I understand, after the economic crisis, America sent people to seek our help. At that time, we were not strong enough to fight against America, so we could only help them through the crisis."
"To this end, we launched a 4 trillion yuan plan, which is equivalent to fiscal relief, which has increased the cost of living for the people to a certain extent and further promoted the surge in housing prices."
"Thanks to this 4 trillion yuan plan, our infrastructure has developed by leaps and bounds."
"Of course, I don't know much about economic matters. I am just reminding you. The specific operation still needs to be discussed and decided by economic experts."
4 Trillion Plan!!
House prices are skyrocketing!
There was silence on the other end of the phone again.
Then there was another heated discussion.
Li Chengqian did not disturb him and waited patiently.
At this time, Li Shimin, Li Jing and others came over.
"What are you talking about for so long?"
Li Chengqian covered the microphone and said, "I have something important to report to the motherland. Please stay aside and don't disturb me."
Li Shimin's face was embarrassed! !
Oh my god, this kind of commanding tone again. He really doesn’t take him, the emperor, seriously, do he?
"Your Majesty, let's..." Li Jing pulled Li Shimin and raised his chin.
Li Shimin took a deep breath.
I will endure! ! !
Pei Xingjian and Zhangsun Wuji said, "You can't see me, you can't see me, you can't see me...."
