Chapter 3542: Forcing the Issue
Lin Feng first went to Italy. President Berlusconi has a close relationship with him and wants to ask for advice on how to run the country, so naturally he goes to him first. Of course, even if asked, someone must manage Somalia.
Major General Dahir surrendered directly and did not want to manage the country. He could not manage it well. It would be better to be a hands-off shopkeeper, enjoy wealth and glory, and occasionally come forward to tell the Somali people that the country is under his control, similar to the British royal family. symbolic head of state.
He is not willing to be the head of government and deal with practical affairs.
Wang Meng, I can’t do it. Professional soldiers can only fight wars and manage the country, which will lead to chaos. ‘Langya doesn’t have the talent in this area, so naturally he can’t take care of it.
As for Lin Feng, he is naturally not a suitable managerial talent. Lin Feng is not good at this kind of management affairs that involve any practical matters. Just like managing a company, Lin Feng has always been the boss and handed it over to the right person. You should be the decision-maker yourself and make suggestions occasionally. Lin Feng is like this when it comes to managing a company, let alone managing a country.
Therefore, Lin Feng will not go either. This naturally requires someone to manage it. And this candidate must naturally be someone trustworthy. Otherwise, please come over. If the honeymoon period is over and the other party leaks to Lin Feng, then Lin Feng will be finished. The trouble will be great. It's very simple. How can a businessman not directly control a country behind his back?
In particular, Lin Feng is a man of the hour. If he directly controls a country, I don't know how many people will be afraid of him. Especially in Somalia, a war-torn country. That would be even more harmful. Moreover, Lin Feng is very democratic, which is naturally scary.
After all, when you think of nationalism, the most impressive thing is Hitler. This is a figure who is regarded as a devil in many European countries. What if Lin Feng becomes Hitler's second in the future? How much harm would that bring to the world!
Therefore, if Lin Feng wants to control Somalia, he must hire someone who is absolutely trustworthy. Simply put, Lin Feng already had this person, and he was absolutely trustworthy.
"Boss, you won't really decide to let me go!" A man in his thirties, who was in his prime, sat next to Lin Feng and said in shock.
"Haha, there is no one around me now, who but you!" Lin Feng laughed.
The man curled his lips helplessly. It’s not that he’s unwilling, he’s just doing what he can, thinking that he’s a bit out of his depth! He had only managed a company for a few years, but it had just gone out of business. He was immediately going to manage a country. He felt a lot of pressure.
"Haha, okay, Mr. Wu, my Mr. Wu, just treat managing the country as managing a company. Anyway, it's just an attempt. I only have a few people in Somalia. If you get into trouble, I will help you fix it. There are 4 million people, and each of them can only spend a few dollars a day, but I can still help you make up for it!" Lin Feng said with great pride.
Somalia's per capita consumption is low. As long as the minimum subsistence guarantee is maintained, if something goes wrong, it can still be afforded. Four million people consume about US$20 million a day, which is US$7.3 billion this year. Lin Feng could bear this loss. As for who this man is, he is naturally Wu Zhaopu who resigned and left the 'Second World'.
Wu Zhaopu originally left the "Second World" and later planned to come to Africa. Lin Feng is making big moves in Africa, and he comes here to give full play to his strengths. In this life, Wu Zhaopu has already recognized Lin Feng as his boss. Let him start his own business. He does not have the confidence and courage. He knows that he is only suitable for management work, which is the so-called professional manager. And Lin Feng is undoubtedly a very courageous and courageous boss, and he usually doesn't interfere in the company at all.
Therefore, the two parties are considered a perfect match.
As a result, Wu Zhaopu originally came to Africa to manage the company, but he was suddenly called by Lin Feng to fly directly to Italy, saying that he was going to let him manage a country. This didn't scare Wu Zhaopu to death on the spot. Can managing a country be the same as managing a company? Wu Zhaopu felt that this was complete nonsense and that he did not have the ability to manage a country. But he couldn't stand Lin Feng's persuasion. After several persuasion, he reluctantly agreed. Then he followed Lin Feng onto the plane.
After getting on the plane, others woke up. Why do I think this, why is it wrong, why do I feel like there is nothing I can do about it. This is not about managing a company. If the management company fails, at most the company will go bankrupt, and the company's employees will be able to find jobs on their own. If you fail to manage the country, what will happen to the millions of people? They have to live, and they see no place to find work to support themselves. Thinking of this, Wu Zhaopu felt as if his heart was blocked by a big stone and he couldn't breathe.
"That's why this time we visited the heads of state of several countries to learn from them how to manage a country!" Lin Feng said.
Wu Zhaopu frowned. I still feel anxious and uncertain, fearing that I will fail and lead to the displacement of millions of people in Somalia.
"Haha, you can rest assured. I am behind everything and I have my absolute strong financial support. You can rest assured that you don't have to worry about anything. Even if they don't work in Somalia, I can still feed them." Lin Feng was full of pride. explain.
Wu Zhaopu struggled for a while and nodded. With Lin Feng's support, his pressure was slightly lessened, but it was obvious that his absolute lack of confidence could still be seen on his face. However, Lin Feng didn't care about this either. It's normal to not be confident. After all, no one can say that they can manage a country well. Anyone who dares to say this is a corrupt official.
While Wu Zhaopu was worried, Lin Feng visited Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi, French President Chirac, British Prime Minister Blair, and German Chancellor Merkel. They asked Lin Feng implicitly about the way to govern the country.
These heads of state did not hide their shortcomings when asked by Lin Feng. In fact, there was no need to hide their shortcomings. This was not something too hidden or too unfathomable. Many sociologists knew more about the way to govern the country than they did. All they could teach was some of their experience. It was a good deal to use these experiences to make friends with Lin Feng.
Lin Feng was the richest man in the world. His business was booming. No matter where he invested, he could increase the employment rate in the country and promote GDP. These were all the heads of state that needed to befriend him. Therefore, in this conversation, they did not say that they spared no effort to teach him everything they knew, but at least they told him everything they knew.
After saying goodbye to the heads of state, Lin Feng and Wu Zhaopu went to Monaco again. In Italy, France and other countries, the purpose of visiting is to learn how to govern the country, while in Monaco, the purpose is to learn how to attract foreign investment. This is crucial for Somalia.
If the entire Somalia relies on Lin Feng alone to develop, then no matter how much money Lin Feng has, he can never expect it to become a developed country, the Switzerland of Africa. At most, it will become the North Korea of Africa, or even better, the Vietnam of Africa.
Monaco, the second smallest country in the world, is at most a city-state, located in the south of France, surrounded by France on three sides and only surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea in the south. The population is only more than 100 people, and there are no resources, but the GDP per capita of Monaco citizens has reached 1 US dollar. This is a typical standard of a Western developed country.
So rich, what does Monaco rely on? Lin Feng naturally has to ask.
"Also, Lin, you are here, why didn't you notify me in advance so that I could pick you up at the airport." Albert II heard that Lin Feng was coming in the mansion and immediately went out to greet him.
"Haha, I'm sorry for visiting you rashly and disturbing you too much." Lin Feng said with a smile.
"By the way, who is this?" Albert II asked curiously, looking at Wu Zhaopu beside Lin Feng. Usually, Lin Feng came alone. Even if he brought someone, it was either a bodyguard or a beautiful female secretary. It was the first time that he came with a man.
"Haha, this is my friend Mr. Wu Zhaopu. I brought him here to ask your Highness some questions." Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Oh, then ask." Albert II welcomed Lin Feng into his palace and received Lin Feng in the reception room.
"Your Highness, I came here today to ask why Monaco has become one of the most developed countries in Europe. After all, the entire Monaco has no resources and no industries worthy of praise. Banks alone may not be enough to support Monaco's finances!" Lin Feng asked humbly.
Albert II was a little surprised by Lin Feng's question, but he didn't care. He had a close relationship with Lin Feng. Although he didn't know if Lin Feng was willing to ask such a question, since he asked, he would naturally answer. As for whether this involved any state secrets, that was completely non-existent.
"The reason why Monaco has achieved its current development is actually based on one thing, that is - zero tax. In Monaco, no company needs to pay any taxes. This is the legendary tax haven. Any company operating here, regardless of size or economic status, does not need to pay even a dollar of tax. Therefore, there are so many banks and so many companies setting up headquarters here. Although they do not bring any taxes, they bring various job opportunities and lead to the rise of real estate, which also benefits more Monegasque citizens." Albert II said proudly.
This policy was formulated by his ancestors.
In the early days, France did not agree with Monaco's independence, which was so small. Although due to historical and social reasons at the time, France finally agreed to Monaco's independence. However, they were not optimistic about Monaco, believing that if such a small country wanted to be independent, the final result would only be the destruction of the country and the death of the people, and it would eventually have to rely on France.
But in the end, Albert II's ancestors came up with a zero tax policy. In the end, Monaco had the economic conditions to break away from France.
“But Monaco’s success today is not just due to zero taxation!” said Prince Albert II. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………(To be continued.
