Chapter 785 Combined Fleet

How could Britain fail! Although Britain no longer has the glory of the former empire, it is still a second-rate power after all! A second-rate power is still a power! For example, many of Britain's weapons are developed by itself, and are considered very advanced in the entire NATO system.

The British 105mm rifled gun is the standard for the entire NATO. The British were the first to realize the gas turbine power of ships and the first to develop vertical take-off and landing fighters. If it were not for the weakening of the British national strength, the British could become a first-class power at any time!

What about Argentina? They have almost no ability to produce weapons themselves. All weapons need to be imported. How can such a country be considered a powerful country? For example, they introduced advanced Exocet missiles, but once France refused to export them, they were at a loss.

Now, the British naval fleet has failed, and this failure has caused an uproar throughout NATO. At the same time, the British Prime Minister, the Iron Lady, had a two-hour transatlantic phone call with US President Reagan.

The content of the call was not known to outsiders. However, after the call, a high-level meeting was held throughout Western Europe. When the eight-hour meeting ended, the first resolution reached at the meeting was to impose a 100% tariff on goods coming through the Berlin Wall!

When electronic products from East Germany took over the entire Western European market, Western European electronic product companies were in dire straits. They couldn't sell their products at all. Even if they lowered the price to the point of losing money, few people were interested, because the performance of their electronic products was not as good as that of Eastern European products!

This is what drives them crazy the most!

At first, East Germany only opened one Brandenburg Gate. Later, this gate became the most densely populated area in the whole of Europe. Some people even had to queue for two days before they could pass through this gate!

In order not to affect traffic, the East German side continued to open new channels. Up to now, there are five channels in the entire Berlin city area. At the same time, a total of 20 channels have been opened on the long dividing line between the two Germanys, which greatly facilitated the exchanges between the people of the two Germanys.

Therefore, it became the most common phenomenon for West Germans to come with funds, buy electronic products in East Germany, and then sell them back. Even if they bought them at retail prices, they could still make money in Western Europe!

But today, these middlemen suddenly found that they could no longer do this business.

"What? I have to pay tax on these things? I bought these for my wife! My wife said I must buy this brand, otherwise she won't let me into the house." A young European shouted to the West German police who were checking his luggage.

In the past, it was very convenient to travel between the channels, but today, there are several times more West German police on this side of the channel than before. They even started to check the luggage of all the people passing through! The electronic products inside were turned out, and then, with the invoices, the passengers were asked to declare taxes.

"Does your wife want five Walkmans and two personal computers?" the policeman said to him expressionlessly.

"Yes, I also need to bring it to my wife's colleague. She has praised Haikou so much that I have to do it," said the European.

"Okay, as long as you pay 16,000 marks in customs duties, you can pass," said the police.

"You might as well just rob us!" The European, who was actually a middleman, finally got angry and said to the people behind him, "Let me tell you, we buy something from our own doorstep, do we still have to pay tariffs? How can this make sense!"

"Yes, that's it!" Most of the people behind were middlemen, and they all became agitated.

"We have to go our own way!" The middleman shouted, and when he saw the opportunity, he picked up his bag and was about to run: "Hurry, let's go together! Otherwise, we will all have to pay taxes!"

Everyone cheered together and rushed over. The police blew the sirens, and the riot police were already behind them, spreading a new encirclement! This scene had been expected!

This kind of scene appeared at various entrances, and the way for the middlemen to make money was cut off. At some entrances, riots broke out, and even one middleman was trampled to death by people trying to get out.

"After the Berlin Wall was opened, East Germany, instigated by some conspirators, maliciously dumped electronic products to our entire Western Europe. They tried to use this method to hit our economy, which we absolutely cannot allow!" That afternoon, after attending a new round of NATO meetings, the US Secretary of State made a public speech: "Therefore, we have formulated this tariff policy. This is our economic policy for the entire Western Europe, which is related to the normal development of our enterprises. Citizens of all countries are requested to understand our policy. This is a premeditated means by the East to destroy our economy. We have survived high oil prices, and we cannot fall in this round of electronic dumping! At the same time, we have set up a special department to investigate East Germany's electronic dumping case. When necessary, we will initiate legal proceedings and claim compensation from East Germany."

Electronics dumping case! When it comes to this, there is no limit to the roguery! Up to now, East German electronics manufacturers have not opened a single sales store in the West. It is the Western Europeans who are the dealers!
