2816 [The chance of joining the WTO]
Entering the world is also of great benefit to summer.
Because in summer, many of its businesses involve manufacturing, such as clothing, food, technology products, etc. After joining the WTO, tariffs will be reduced, which is also very helpful for exports.
Moreover, summer products have technological advantages, such as many high-tech products, which are at the top level in the world. Therefore, opening up the country and opening up competition is an opportunity for him.
In addition, after China joined the WTO, its economy will develop rapidly, its national strength will increase, and its people's income will increase, so its expenditures in housing, education, entertainment, etc. will become higher and higher.
By then, many companies under Xiatian's real estate, entertainment, education, etc. could also make a lot of money. Therefore, it is good to join the WTO, and Xiatian is willing to help the mainland enter the WTO.
"Lingmasters, please rest assured. I will do my best to promote China's accession to the WTO." Xia Tian nodded and smiled, "But China's accession to the WTO is still missing."
"Opportunity?!" The directors of Ling were stunned.
"Yes. The reason why China's WTO negotiations are difficult now is that it is stuck in the attitude of the United States." Xia Tian nodded, "The United States is very alert to the rising China, so it will not allow China's development.
It is a very good strategy for preventing China from joining the WTO and limiting our economy. If there is no opportunity, then this trend will be difficult to reverse."
"What kind of opportunity does it take to reverse this trend?" The directors of Ling nodded, and then asked curiously.
They also know that the reason why China cannot join the WTO is because it is resisted by the United States. It exerts influence on various countries, allowing them to delay when they can negotiate with China and stop when they can.
For this reason, countries like Moxico, Canada, and South America have been reluctant to sign an agreement with China, making China's journey to join the WTO very difficult.
Therefore, if China wants to join the WTO, it must first solve the problem of the United States. How to solve the problem of the United States has always been a headache for the leaders.
"This opportunity is to have a new enemy that can attract the attention of the United States," Xia Tian explained.
"New enemy?! It is impossible. No country in the world can be an opponent of the United States except Russia and us." When the directors of the Ling Dynasty shook their heads and said.
In terms of military strength in the world, only China, Russia, the United States, France and Britain are the strongest, with fearsome nuclear weapons. Although there are still several countries that are still developing secretly, not to mention hydrogen bombs, even atomic bombs have not been built.
Because Britain, France and the United States belong to NATO, they have been allies since the beginning of World War I. Until now, although there are occasional conflicts, they are still good friends in general and cannot fight a war. Therefore, in terms of the enemy of the United States, there are only two countries, China and Russia.
"Yes, the only two countries in the world that can become American opponents are China and Russia." Xia Tian nodded, "But the new enemy I want to talk about is not just a country, but a civilization.
Samuel Huntington, a well-known American genist and professor at Harvard University, has a very unique insight. He believes that the core genist struggle in the 21st century will not be between countries, but between different civilizations.
Because with the development of the Internet and the improvement of transportation, the world is shrinking rapidly.
A hundred years ago, people took a steamer to sea and had to wander on the sea for several days before they could run from Europe to the United States. But now they can arrive in a few hours by plane.
The Internet connects all over the world. With just a slight click of your finger, you can know what is happening around the world. The speed of information spreads and the rapid flow of characters are bringing the distance to a narrower limit.
The world becomes smaller rapidly, and the more frequent the contact between different civilizations becomes, the more friction will naturally increase. The differences between different civilizations are extremely difficult to change, so as the friction increases, the accumulated contradictions will become deeper and deeper, and will explode one day.
It is easy to overthrow a country's palace, but it is difficult to destroy a civilization. Because civilization is extremely resilient. Even if the country is defeated, civilization will not be destroyed. Instead, it will be like spider silk, holding the opponent's net, and the more you struggle, the tighter it will be. Therefore, it is the best enemy of the United States."
After hearing what Xia Tian said, all the ling directors here nodded.
In fact, they have also seen Samuel Huntington's book "Clash of Civilizations and Reconstruction of World Order". There are also many controversies about Huntington's theory in China.
Some believe that his theory is very correct and inspiring for the study of international politics; some believe that Huntington's theory is biased and only emphasizes the conflicts between civilizations, but does not involve the integration of civilizations.
Therefore, for Huntington's theory, the directors only regarded it as a theory with unique insights and did not adjust China's diplomatic strategy based on it.
But now after hearing what Xia Tian said, they think Huntington's theory is actually quite valuable.
According to this theory, it can help the Western Jishu country led by the United States to establish a very powerful opponent.
That year, the Crusade carried out a total of nine expeditions, and the war lasted for two hundred years, and finally ended in failure. This shows that the opponent's resilience cannot be easily conquered.
Especially under the current civilization, war is no longer inhumane as it was in ancient times, and no longer can be massacred at any time, so it is naturally more difficult to eradicate civilization.
So once the two civilizations really start a war, the war will last for a long time and be extremely difficult. In this way, Western countries led by the United States will not only not have the energy to cause trouble for China, but will instead be more likely to seek help from China.
After all, once guns and cannons fire, gold will be 10,000 taels. Once war begins, Western countries led by the United States will need strong support from China, the world's factories. And they also need China, one of the Five Constables of the United Nations, to help them stand up and cheer in international governance and public opinion.
In that case, it will naturally not be difficult for China to join the WTO.
This is what Xia Tian calls the opportunity.
"Mr. Xia, do you think this opportunity really will be?" Director Ling asked in confusion.
Although Huntington's theory has some truth, conflicts in civilizations may not necessarily lead to war. And when war will lead to war is unpredictable.
"There will be. I believe the directors of Ling also heard that in 1993, a car bomb was exposed in the parking lot of the World Trade Center building in the United States, killing six people and injuring more than a thousand people. A year later, the United States arrested four defendants, all of whom were civilized.
