Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 484 Sanctions by Argentina

The news that the Hong Kong Governor's Office sold Falklands War Bonds quickly spread throughout Hong Kong. This group of tycoons hated the British Hong Kong government very much at this time. We can't control your war, but we can't make you pay for it. We are only doing business in Hong Kong, what does Argentina have to do with us?

But what reporters and Xiangjiang citizens talk about the most is that Bao, the richest man, actually spent 1 billion pounds to buy British war bonds with a wave of his hand. This is a huge feat. Most people really can't understand Bao's thoughts.

Everyone feels that the richest man Bao may have some unavoidable reasons, but outsiders don't know it. However, this approach is also an act of inciting hatred. For example, the Argentinians will take action against him and the Black Cloud Group.

The Argentine Republic, referred to as Argentina, is a presidential federal republic consisting of 23 provinces and the federal capital Buenos Aires. It is located in southeastern South America, bordering the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Antarctica to the south, and Chile to the west. , borders Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, and Uruguay and Brazil to the northeast. It is 3694 kilometers long from north to south and 1423 kilometers wide from east to west. The land boundary is 25,728 kilometers long and the coastline is 4,725 kilometers long. The northern part has a tropical climate, the central part has a subtropical climate, and the south has a temperate climate. Area: 2.7804 million square kilometers (excluding the Malvinas Islands and claimed Antarctic territory). With a population of 40 million+, it ranks around 30th in the world.

Indians lived here in the 16th century and became a Spanish colony in 1536. The May Revolution against Spanish colonial rule broke out on May 25, 1810. Independence was declared on July 9, 1816. The Federal Republic was established in 1853. In 1994, the The four-time revised constitution stipulates that Argentina is a federal country and implements representative democracy.

At the beginning of the 19th century, Argentina's economy was at the forefront of the world; before World War II, Argentina's economic growth rate was comparable to that of the United States, and its per capita GDP was even higher than that of developed countries such as the United Kingdom and France. Therefore, immigrants from all over the world set foot on the fertile Pampas. 100 years later, the "Pampas Eagle" is still running wildly on the green field, but Argentina's economy has stalled.

This is a player who just smashed a good hand of cards, which shows that his leader's ability to govern is very good. When they learned that Black Cloud Group had purchased 1 billion pounds of war bonds, the Argentines were ready to take action.

At this time, in the Governor's Palace of Argentina, General Tulio Bordo Galtieri was sitting in the conference room and said seriously: "A company from the Black Cloud Group actually dared to purchase 1 billion pounds of war bonds to use in the war between Britain and Argentina. I don't care about Black Cloud Group." What about Yun Group? In short, they must be subject to the harshest sanctions."

Galtieri, Argentinian politician and military president. He studied engineering at a military school in his early years and has been serving in the army since then. He supported the military coup that overthrew the democratic government in 1976, and was promoted by the ruling military government after the coup. From 1979 to 1982, he served as Chairman of the Military Administration Council and Commander-in-Chief of the Army. From December 1981 to June 1982, he served as President of the Military Government of the Argentine Republic. In 1982, he declared war on Britain to regain sovereignty over the Malvinas Islands. After the defeat, he resigned and stepped down.

It can be said that this was the most glorious time for the Argentine president, and it was also the starting point of decline. But at this time, no one dared to oppose his decision, and at the same time, no one dared to fight against public opinion. That is to say, starting from the Falklands War, his life trajectory changed greatly.

In order to suppress the domestic opposition wave, he chose to transfer the contradiction. That's why we attacked the Falklands, but we didn't expect that the British would react so violently, and even the Americans didn't side with Argentina. However, he also believed that it would be difficult to organize a large-scale expedition with the current British national strength. After all, the strength did not allow it.

But at this critical moment, when everything was thought to be fine, the Iron Lady actually organized a task force expedition spanning tens of thousands of kilometers. Thinking about the pitiful military strength of the British Empire and the aircraft carriers that are about to be decommissioned. Argentina is waiting for work and there should be no problem in defeating the opponent.

In the final analysis, modern warfare is still about weaponry and economic strength, although Argentina's economic situation is not very good. But starting a war at home can save a lot of costs, at least much less than in the UK.

Unexpectedly, the British actually issued war bonds in Hong Kong, because according to the analysis of the staff. It was difficult for the British government to raise enough funds for the war at home. After all, the so-called British Empire was already in decline at this time, and it could be said that its national strength was at its weakest in 300 years.

At this time, the small colony of Xiangjiang actually jumped out, and the Heiyun Group alone purchased 1 billion pounds of war bonds. In the eyes of Argentines, this is not 1 billion pounds of funds, but 1 billion bullets fired at Argentines. How can they endure this? Now not only is the government preparing to sanction Heiyun Group, ordinary people have begun to burn Heiyun products.

Argentines expressed their dissatisfaction with Heiyun Group through practical actions. Those who continue to use Heiyun products in the country are considered treason.

Fortunately, Bao Zixuan was prepared in advance, even when he knew that a war was going to break out. Moreover, Heiyun itself has no large-scale investment in Argentina, and its products are sold through agents. Even Heiyun Automobile did not choose to build a 4S store in Argentina, otherwise it would have to be smashed.

With Galtieri's order, Argentina's entire state apparatus began to take action. They want to impose the harshest sanctions on Heiyun Group and let other companies see the consequences of offending the Argentines.

The Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs first held a press conference. They wanted to announce sanctions against Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan in front of the world's media.

This time there was no tirade from the Argentine, just an announcement. A spokesman for the Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs told the media around the world: "As we all know, the Malvinas Islands are Argentina's inherent territory. Argentine ancestors lived on the islands as early as 500 years ago. They were only occupied by the British during the colonial period. In the past, but it has always belonged to Argentina is an indisputable fact. Half a month ago, under the wise leadership of the great General Galtieri, the brave and fearless Argentine warriors defeated the British. The Malvinas Islands were restored In the embrace of the motherland, the British, unwilling to fail, actually organized a fleet expedition. I can tell the British that you have chosen the wrong opponent. The Argentines are stronger than you imagined."

"The British may still be silent in the period of the Empire on which the sun never sets, and the Malvinas Islands are their burial place. This time there will definitely be no return for the British, and victory will definitely belong to Argentina."

"The Argentines have no doubts about their victorious opponent, but the practices of some companies are intolerable to Argentina. Black Cloud Group actually dared to purchase war bonds issued by the United Kingdom at this time."

"What they bought was not bonds, but bullets fired into the bodies of Argentinians. Therefore, the Argentine government decided to impose sanctions on Black Cloud Group starting from today."

"Argentine nationals are prohibited from purchasing any products produced by the Black Cloud Group until the sanctions are lifted."

"Anyone who secretly possesses or uses Heiyun products in Argentina will be punished as treason, and all accounts of Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan in Argentina will be frozen."

"Argentine companies are prohibited from providing any raw materials, funds, and technical support to Heiyun Group. We always want Heiyun Group to completely lose the Argentine market and let them know the consequences of offending Argentines."

Economic sanctions refer to non-forced coercive measures other than severing diplomatic relations. It is generally believed that sanctions in fiscal, financial, trade and other fields are economic sanctions. Generally speaking, common methods include: imposing a trade embargo, interrupting economic cooperation, cutting off economic or technical assistance, etc. But economic sanctions are also a double-edged sword, and the sanctioning countries will also suffer certain economic losses. In a broad sense, arms trade and other sanctions also fall under the category of economic sanctions. In fiscal and financial management, economic sanctions refer to the economic punishment imposed on units or individuals that violate economic regulations in macroeconomic and microeconomic operations.

It can be said that the Argentines used all the sanctions methods they could think of on Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan, which many people did not expect. Although he knew that he might offend the Argentine, Bao Zixuan still didn't care. Now it seems that he is still too young and lacks a lot of experience. It’s time to form a staff team, otherwise we might make some mistakes in the future!

If you support the UK in such a big way, your opponents, the Argentines, will definitely fight back against you. The weak country can bear it this time, but if it offends a powerful country next time, Heiyun's losses will be too great.

In many cases, it is still necessary to develop in a low-key manner and make a fortune in silence. The ancients do not deceive me.

But now that things have happened, we can only fight to the end. It is estimated that it will be difficult to step into the Pampas grasslands in this life, which can be regarded as a pity!
