Jiang Chen noticed that Wu Changfeng used the word "you" instead of "you."
Obviously, he didn't want to ask about his personal opinion.
"Can you be more specific?" Jiang Chen's mouth curved up as he said in a relaxed tone, "Your question is very general."
"Then I'll be direct. If John Kennedy comes to power, what do you plan to do?" Wu Changfeng looked into Jiang Chen's eyes and asked.
"We will be very happy." Jiang Chen smiled, raised the teacup in his hand slightly, and made a toast. "This is the best situation. The UA actively joins the Earth Defense Alliance, gives up hegemonism, and embraces the future. The iron curtain around the Pacific Ocean will end before it opens. All mankind will work together to move towards a beautiful new world …"
"Ahem." Wu Changfeng coughed gently, interrupted Jiang Chen's nonsense, and hurriedly asked, "What if Trump comes to power?"
"Trump is an unstable factor." Jiang Chen put the teacup on the table. This time, he didn't waste too much time. He said concisely, "Based on his choice, we will also make a corresponding response."
"Including war?" Wu Changfeng asked.
"Are you afraid?" Jiang Chen laughed.
Wu Changfeng took a moment to process, then laughed.
"Of course not! It's just that we are still a little worried. During the Colombian Civil War, there were already signs of conflict. Fortunately, both sides stepped on the brakes in time. If it gets out of hand … "
"If it really comes to the point where we have to make the worst choice." Facing Wu Changfeng's probing gaze, Jiang Chen smiled and said nonchalantly, "I can guarantee that before the situation gets out of hand, everything will be over."
At this point, this topic was considered to have come to an end. In the following chat, the two tacitly did not talk about international affairs. Instead, they briefly talked about SS Origin in the Kuiper Belt and the next development plan of the Earth Defense Alliance.
After Wu Changfeng declined the invitation to stay for dinner, he got up and said goodbye to Jiang Chen before he left the mansion.
Before he got into the car parked at the door, he looked back in the direction of the mansion with mixed feelings.
"End everything before the situation gets out of hand? Hmph, so confident … "Wu Changfeng smiled and shook his head as he muttered to himself. The strong fear in his heart could not dissipate. At this moment, he was looking at this problem from the perspective of a major general of the Chinese Army.
If Jiang Chen was bluffing, it would be fine.
But if Celestial Trade wasn't pretending, then the strength of Celestial Trade was terrifying.
After all, it was the United States.
It was neither Country F, nor Colombia, nor the anti-government forces in Syria and Ukraine.
So far, the confrontation between Celestial Trade and the UA was limited to small-scale confrontations in local conflicts. Even in the most intense collision, the battle in Colombia, the UA only sent a Marine Brigade.
The war between superpowers was not a simple technology competition. Xin's strategic depth was only one hundred square kilometers. Where did he get his confidence from?
Even when he returned to the hotel, Wu Changfeng still didn't understand the question. In the end, he had to attribute the answer to the question to the possibility that Celestial Trade was hiding a power that no one understood. After all, no matter what, he couldn't believe that the calm expression on that man's face was all fake …
Standing at the window of the office, Jiang Chen watched the car disappear at the end of the road, then he suddenly said.
"Ayesha."
"Mhmm?" Ayesha, who was standing on the side, turned her head slightly and cast a questioning look at Jiang Chen.
"I've been thinking about a problem for the past few days."
"What problem?" Ayesha asked curiously.
"I always thought that only when John Kennedy came to power, the UA joined the Earth Defense Alliance, and everything developed in the direction we expected, could we move towards a happy ending." Jiang Chen stared straight out the window and said thoughtfully, "But now I suddenly feel that maybe the opposite is true."
"Why?" Ayesha asked, puzzled.
"Think about it, even if John Kennedy wins, he can only lead the UA for four years. After four years, there will be another election. Even if he is re-elected, the longest he can serve is two terms. If we have to reconsider and adjust our strategy against the UA every time there is a change of leadership … "Jiang Chen stopped here.
A crazy idea appeared in his mind.
Although this idea had appeared before, it was the first time he seriously considered the feasibility of this idea.
Instead of letting a rational politician push all the sharp contradictions to four years later, it was better to let an amateur madman come to power. Maybe Celestial Trade could seize this opportunity to solve all the problems once and for all.
"Do you need me to let Bernice adjust the strategy?" Ayesha asked.
No matter what choice Jiang Chen made, she would always be on his side.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Chen finally sighed.
"No need." Jiang Chen reached out and gently stroked Ayesha's beautiful hair. He looked at the cheeks that were gradually dyed red and said softly, "Anyway, it's only a few days. Let the UA toss this coin themselves."
…
Seven o 'clock in the evening.
After a busy day, she finally got off work and returned home.
Xia Shiyu closed the security door, held onto the shoe cabinet, and lazily hooked her high heels with her index finger. Just then, she suddenly noticed the cup on the coffee table in the living room and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"You have guests at home?"
"Left about two hours ago." Lilith, who was lying on the sofa with a Phantom helmet on, added in her emotionless voice, "By the way, you missed dinner."
"You came back at the right time. We just finished eating. Ayesha made beef stew today. I'll let her heat it up for you later. " When he walked out of the dining room, Jiang Chen rubbed Lilith's head, looked at Xia Shiyu, and asked with concern, "What were you busy with today? Why did you come back so late?"
Xia Shiyu poured herself a glass of water, stuck out her tongue, and sat down on the sofa.
"I've been busy with an acquisition recently. High Tech Freshwater acquired 30% of IDE Company's shares at a price of 3.5 billion Xin New dollars. Future Bank will be the guarantor for this acquisition, and now the negotiation has entered the final stage … I'm so tired. Don't worry about me, I'll just eat some fruit later. "
When Jiang Chen heard this news, he was slightly taken aback and looked at Xia Shiyu with some surprise.
If he did not remember wrongly, this IDE company had a powerful background.
