Chapter 700

How to occupy a larger share in the U.S. market is a problem that shagliaosha and Gorky financial group have to face in order to survive. It is precisely because the United States is the most mature capitalist market in the world. In addition to the emerging high-tech industries, the energy industry, manufacturing industry and financial industry have long been divided up by those big consortia. Golgi consortia, as a participant, will inevitably snatch part of the market and interests from these consortia. The difficulty of this can be imagined.

Golgi consortium participated in a lot of money laundering business in the initial stage. No matter what, these things are like a bomb, which may bring disaster to Golgi Consortium at any time. If you want to thoroughly whiten the Gorky brotherhood, turn it into a recognized legal consortium, and participate in the distribution of interests in the United States in the sunshine, you have to break your own way in the American market, which has been completely divided up by the American consortia, and expand your control and influence as much as possible.

The Golgi consortium is now the largest in the UK, controlling water, gas and more than half of the electricity market. Basically every British family is contributing to the Golgi consortium. In Germany, the Golgi consortium controls half of the automobile industry in the Federal Republic of Germany, and more than one in ten West German workers work for the Golgi consortium. In Italy, Golgi consortia, together with mafia, monopolized the whole Mediterranean Shipping industry, and indirectly controlled Italy's domestic natural gas market and foreign trade market. In addition, Golgi consortia are gradually infiltrating into the socialist camp in Eastern Europe, which is about to change. These Golgi consortia alone have no rivals in Europe.

But Europe is not the center of the world after all. No matter how Xie liaosha tosses in Europe, he can't really get absolute security. Therefore, his ultimate goal is to gain a firm foothold in the United States. A year ago, with the help of Blackstone Group, he acquired Enron group, an unknown large energy company, and retained its management. Xie liaosha bought the company because he knew that the company would grow into the world's largest energy company and energy trading platform in the future, and eventually collapsed overnight because of financial fraud. However, it is not clear how Enron has grown from a small company in Texas to the world's largest energy giant in more than ten years. It wasn't until recently that Kenneth ray, CEO of Enron, imported cheap natural gas from Europe, which inspired him.

Kenneth Ray's business strategy is very simple. Through the transformation of his power plants, he successfully transformed the fuel of traditional thermal power plants from coal to natural gas. And through the gas pipeline directly to the power plant. In today's world, natural gas has not replaced coal as the mainstream energy. But because natural gas is a kind of clean energy, it is favored by environmental groups, so this transformation not only achieved economic success, but also won Enron a good social reputation.

Kenneth ray wants to acquire and transform more power plants, which enlightens shaeliosha. Electricity is the basic power of industry. To control electricity is to control American industry. And Kenneth Ray's Enron company seems to be the right key for Gorky group to explore the American market.

He now controls a lot of natural gas resources, not only in the Soviet Union, but also in the United States. After all, Western oil companies are among the top ten oil industry groups in the United States. Just after the death of Comrade hammer last year, the whole western oil company has completely become an enterprise controlled by Gorky financial group. Thanks to the hard work of Comrade Hamer, he not only owns a large number of oil fields and natural gas fields, but also has a mature petrochemical and chemical industry chain. In addition, Western oil companies are also the largest beef cattle producer in the United States, which makes him the largest rancher in the United States.

Now it seems that the combination of Western oil companies' natural gas fields in North America and Enron group will set off a clean energy revolution in the U.S. electricity market. This is a rare opportunity for shagliaosha to control the U.S. electricity market. Xie liaosha can control all this quietly behind the scenes. He can donate money to environmental groups to protest at power plants that still refuse to transform and continue to use coal. Don't underestimate the power of these non-governmental organizations. They represent votes in the United States, and votes are the lifeblood of politicians. These non-governmental environmental groups can drive politicians to pass relevant environmental protection laws. Forcing these coal-fired power plants to switch to natural gas is absolutely beneficial to Enron group.

After figuring out these reasons, sherius asked Karim to pay attention to whether there are suitable environmental groups in the United States and Europe. Xie liaosha can support these groups through financial support. Karim is very good at using politics to achieve his business purpose. Xie liaosha thinks this may be inherited from the character of Amin, the politician's father. Since Griffith was elected governor of South Dakota, Karim has applied the model of fostering political agents to North Dakota, Iowa, and Alabama. Karim gets an agent by looking for potential politicians to provide them with campaign funds. When these politicians are elected, they naturally have to repay Karim's enterprises. In this way, Monsanto's seed products successfully occupied the seed market of the above states.

However, it's not enough just to achieve this level. Sherio Sha also has McDonald's, the largest restaurant chain in the United States. You know, McDonald's is the world's largest buyer of ground beef, tomatoes, cabbage and other agricultural products. In order to ensure that the taste of each restaurant is basically the same, McDonald's has strict restrictions on suppliers. They can be refined to beef cattle feeding environment, feed and other specific details. If you don't raise beef cattle according to McDonald's requirements, you can't become a McDonald's supplier. McDonald's, on the other hand, is forcing enough corn and soybeans in its feed. This is actually expanding the market for Monsanto. After all, there is no corn or soybean whose production cost is lower than Monsanto's genetically modified seeds. With this series of related businesses, Karim has completed the actual monopoly in the so-called free American agricultural market.
