What this guy brought was definitely bad news, and even before the war started, everyone felt a little uncomfortable. What was going on? If the navy was not good, could it be that the army was becoming useless as well?

Just when Europa was frowning, Li Cong finally met his brother and the mysterious collaborator in Paris. At this moment, Europa's top executives were having a meeting, and this person appeared in front of him, which meant that this guy was still there.

Not even the core group of people looked very young. Normally, this guy sent Li Cong's younger brother back, so he should be your benefactor. But when Li Cong saw this guy, he

I am not happy at all. I really don't know where this guy has offended me before. I always feel that this guy has no good intentions. However, I don't have any information about this guy at the moment, so I can't make any judgment.

"You kid, you've been fine in Africa these past few days. I'm really afraid that you kid won't be able to hold on and run away and surrender." Although I was really happy when I saw my brother getting off the plane, I didn't forget to say this.

Just a few words, looking at that fat look, it seems that we need to strengthen training for this kid when we go back, otherwise something will happen easily.

"Haha, are we such insensitive people? Don't look at whose younger brother we are. Brother, what does this Gatling do? How can he help us?" Li Ming asked while the guy was not around.

Li Cong, it was also the first time that Li Cong knew that this guy was named Gatlin. He was almost the same name as the Gagarin of the former Soviet Union. In fact, the gap between the names of foreigners is not small, but when translated into Chinese, the name changed.

There is only one word left.

Just when the two brothers were wondering, Karelina came over with the information. Li Cong arranged for someone to send this guy to rest. After all, he couldn't be seen meeting this guy at this moment. Maybe this

This guy is still useful. You can't let anything happen now, otherwise your money will be wasted. This guy Li Ming is considered valuable. It took tens of billions of euros to buy this guy back.

"Haha, it turns out that this guy's home belongs to our client. Unexpectedly, he is actually the boss behind the former Electricite de France. Now the newly formed Europa Power Group also has a lot of shares of this guy. It seems that we can follow suit.

This kid cooperated." Li Cong looked at the information on the cover and said, although this family is not very old, it is still very powerful. Like himself, they can control energy, but his wings are still a little tender.

.

The former French Electricity Group (edf) was one of the largest state-owned enterprises in France. Of course, when you see the report in Li Cong's hand, you will know what is going on with this state-owned enterprise. On the surface, it is branded as a country, but in fact

They are making money for private individuals. Of course, they usually dare not make it public, but after the great changes in Europe, they openly spoke out. With more than 50 years of development experience, the former EDF has become the world's leading power company.

1. As a large enterprise with world-class industrial competitiveness in nuclear energy, thermal energy, hydropower and renewable energy, EDF can provide integrated solutions including power investment, engineering design, power management and distribution. The Group's

The total number of employees is 161,738, of which 115,677 are in the former French parent company. It has 98 subsidiaries, distributed in 22 countries around the world, including 47 former French subsidiaries, including Strasbourg Electric and Dalkia, and 100 subsidiaries in Europe.

It has 30 subsidiaries, with 21 subsidiaries in the Americas and Asia-Pacific regions. It ranked 102nd in the 2001 Fortune 500 rankings. If the energy group did not appear, it might become the largest power group in the world.

It is a pity that as soon as the energy group's electricity was produced, it immediately impacted other power companies in the world. This company also suffered a huge impact. Even before its own investment was returned, it was defeated by the energy group's cheap electricity.

I have no choice but to change my business model, from producing my own electricity to selling energy from an energy group on a consignment basis, so I can still survive.

EDF is still a state-owned enterprise fully controlled by the state, responsible for the power generation, transmission and distribution business in France. It maintains a monopoly position in power transmission and power import and export, and a quasi-monopoly position in the power distribution market (95). Its operations are

This is done by signing a franchise agreement with the national or local government.

The group shoulders the mission of public utilities and is responsible for providing equal and high-quality power to all people. Of course, the prerequisite is that they must obtain a contract with the energy group. According to the group's latest business statistics, the turnover of the French Electricite Group before 2011 was

80.7 billion euros, an increase of 18.3% year-on-year, and the after-tax profit was 8.841 billion euros, a decrease of 26.3% compared with the same period last year. The cumulative international investment in the world reached 10.8 billion euros. Its user base is divided into domestic users and foreign users, of which 31.9 million are domestic users.

, including 26.6 million household users, 3.2 million tertiary industry users and 620,000 industrial users, and 11 million foreign users. This is also the last few years of their service to France, because they were merged by Europa Power Group not long after.

.

The former EDF Group was affiliated to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Industry. Its chairman was directly appointed by the government. The board of directors consists of 18 directors, one-third of whom are directly appointed by the state, one-third who are elected by employee representatives, and the other three

One half is elected by user representatives. In daily production and operation, in addition to being responsible to the competent departments, EDF is also restricted by other government departments. For example, on the issue of nuclear power, the opinions of various government departments often conflict with each other.

In order for the government to have a voice to dialogue with enterprises, starting from 1970, the former French government adopted the "planning contract" method to manage French electricity, stipulating some quantitative goals that enterprises must complete, thus facilitating inspection of the plan.

The length of the contract is generally five years, which also gives the company a stable and longer space for free development. Of course, no matter how the leader chooses, more than one-third of the family members will be included.

It can be said that they have done a good job in this aspect.

In addition to the first time, this boy's family also controls another company that is famous in Europe, and that is the famous Siemens.

Siemens AG (siemens ag fwb:sie, nyse:si) is one of the world's largest electromechanical companies with Siemens headquarters. It was established in 1847 by Werner von Siemens. Today, its international headquarters is located in Munich, Germany. Siemens AG

The company is listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the New York Stock Exchange. In 2005, the Siemens Group employed 460,800 people in 190 countries and regions, with global revenue of 75.445 billion euros (2004: 70.237 billion euros), after tax

The profit dropped to 2.42 billion euros from 3.66 billion euros in 2004. It developed rapidly after the establishment of Europa. In 2044, the profit reached an astonishing 27.2 billion euros. It seems that this guy is not showy, but in fact his

The family has an annual income of hundreds of billions of euros, which is quite a lot even among the core families in Europe.

"This guy is definitely qualified to cooperate with us. It's too late today. You go and take a rest. I will have a good talk with this guy tomorrow. I heard that Siemens Industry has taken over some confidential parts of Europa. That's it.

I don’t know how big a surprise this boy will give me tomorrow." Usually when Li Cong speaks like this, he starts to plot against others. Li Ming hasn’t had a good rest these days, so he went back to rest without saying anything. Brother is plotting against others.

It's better to stay away sometimes, so as not to get involved in anything.

"Sir, you seem to have missed something. This guy's grandfather has a great background. He is not only the heir of a business family, but as a soldier, he also has that pedigree." Karelina picked up Li Cong.

The information dropped said that the latter is the most important. This guy's grandfather is the Portuguese soldier Antonio Spinola.

Li Cong glanced at it in surprise. He really didn't pay attention. Do these young men have so many backgrounds? This guy's grandfather has a good background. He was a Portuguese soldier and political leader. "Portugal and its Future" written by

The book criticized the Portuguese government's policies in the colonial war and was quite influential. In April 1974, he launched a coup to overthrow the Caetano government and became the interim president. He went into exile in 1975. He was arrested after returning to China in August 1976.

, went into exile again. In 1978, he returned to China and resumed his general rank. In December 1981, he was promoted to marshal.

His full name is Antonio Sebastian Ribeiro de Spinola. He was born into a noble family in Estremoz. His father once served as financial advisor to President Antonio de Oliveira Salazar.

Consultant, studied at the University of Lisbon and graduated from the cavalry class of the Military Academy in 1933. He later served in the army and the National Guard. During the Spanish Civil War in 1936, he participated in Francisco Franco's army. During the Second World War, he served in

He received military training in Germany and went to the Soviet-German front line with the German army as an observer. In 1959, he was promoted to the commander of the Lisbon Garrison. In 1961, he voluntarily requested to go to Angola to suppress the local national liberation movement. In 1968, he served as the commander of Portuguese Guinea-Bissau.

Governor-General and Commander-in-Chief. Promoted to general in 1939. Returned to China in September 1973 and served as deputy chief of staff, responsible for the colonial war in Africa, and was promoted to four-star general. In February 1974, he published the book "Portugal and its Future", publicly claiming that

It was impossible for Portugal to win militarily in Africa. It advocated adopting neocolonial policies, giving up force, and giving Portuguese African colonies independence within the Portuguese Federation. Due to the publication of the book, Spinola was dismissed from office, but his ideas

Received the sympathy and support of middle- and lower-level officers. On April 25, Portuguese middle- and lower-level officers launched the Lieutenant Movement and carried out the Carnation Revolution, overthrowing the 48-year-old fascist regime. Spinola received the support of the National Salvation Committee composed of soldiers.

He became the interim president. In September of the same year, due to political differences, the president was replaced by Francisco da Costa Gomez. In March 1975, after the coup attempt by right-wing soldiers failed, he was arrested and exiled in Brazil.

Because there was no evidence that he was connected with the coup, he returned to China in 1976 and was promoted to marshal in 1981. In February 1987, he was awarded the highest medal of Portugal. He died of lung disease on August 13, 1996 at the age of 86. His major works include "Democracy and

Self-determination", "Armed Forces and Politics", "On the Road to the Future.

"Let me check immediately. I want to know if this guy has any contact with the former Portuguese military in the Europa Army." Li Cong quickly thought of the key point. When the general died, he only had one daughter.

Yes, even if I leave something behind, it will definitely be in the hands of this kid. It seems that my partner has more and more chips, and it is more fun.

Europa has had this disadvantage since its establishment. Although they are now a whole, they still seem to be very scattered. Such a federal system cannot be used when a country or organization is just starting. Not only can it not be achieved in one step,

With democracy, many things will happen. For example, in Europa now, many things need to be discussed, and multiple people become decision-makers. In this way, the probability of leaks may be much higher, and it also creates conditions for people like Li Cong to gain opportunities.

.

Li Cong currently has four military bases throughout the Europa region, with more than 75,000 troops stationed there. It can be said that these people are also living in danger at this moment. Although Li Cong has already issued a notice to them to be alert, there are people around.

Ten times their army, this is no joke. You must know that Europa's army has very strong combat effectiveness. If it goes wrong, the entire army will be destroyed. Li Cong has given them maximum support, and he also

There is no other way. This is a very clear thing. If he really goes to war with Europa, their bases will be eaten up immediately, so Li Cong arranged a fatal thing for them, that is, the latest production

The anti-matter bombs that came out, as small as a finger, can directly send everything within dozens of kilometers around to hell. Li Cong told the leaders of the bases that these things were like nuclear weapons.

The deterrence is the same. At worst, we will perish together. Of course, it would be best if we can maintain the current situation.

That kid came directly to find Li Cong after resting for the night. You must know that people within Europa are also very disciplined. This guy's station is not in Paris. If the top people in Europa know that this kid has returned from Africa

, then everything for him should be over.

"Sir, I have a few questions to ask you. If you answer well, I will not only agree to the previous conditions, but also give you some more things you need." Li Cong smiled and poured this guy a drink.

Red wine, the more I know about this guy, the more I want to cooperate with him, if for no other reason than the power behind this guy is not small.

"Mr. Li, just ask. I will definitely give you the truest answer. After all, I know very well that Mr. Li does not often give others opportunities. I took the risk to save your brother because Mr. Li is willing to give me a chance."

, There are not many people in this world who you give opportunities, but those who receive the opportunity from you have also become great talents." This boy's words are still very satisfying, at least this flattery makes Li Cong very happy.

It's comfortable, and it doesn't feel like a deliberate flattery.

"Haha, you are right. You are a smart man. I like to deal with people like you. First of all, there is one thing I don't understand, which is your identity. You also know that I have investigated you. In the past, you could

You are said to be unknown, but you have a huge business and military background behind you. Although Portugal's military power is nothing, there is something wrong with you. The most important thing is that we investigate

You and your grandfather are not related by blood at all. Can you give me an answer to this?" Li Cong said with a smile. He had just received the news that such a military giant would leave everything he had.

It is also very strange to give it to someone who is not your grandson.
