Chapter 528 Understanding Cooperation

"I know a little about it."

Chen Feng said modestly.

"What I mean is, we can cooperate on..."

Bai Si said with a serious expression.

"What? Cooperate in the field of...? Do you think it's possible? China and... have always been hostile. We only maintain superficial friendliness, but in secret, we are in a fierce struggle. The ... industry is very cutting-edge and sensitive. It's already enough that we don't fight to the death. How can we cooperate?"

Chen Feng explained seriously.

"Chen Feng, you are a smart person, you should know something. Although the business world and the political arena have many similarities, there are also differences. The political arena considers issues from a long-term perspective. China has developed too rapidly in the past few decades, and one careless mistake could lead to surpassing.... To maintain its dominant position, ... must constantly guard against China. Why is this happening? It's not that people in ... have nothing better to do, but rather that China's development is too rapid. Our business world thinks differently from the government; we only look at money. If we fall out with China, we won't make much money. China is the largest market in the world. If we lose this largest market, the losses will be tremendous. I have the technology, and China has the market. I think both sides can cooperate secretly."

Bai Si said in a low voice.

"That makes a lot of sense. I agree."

Chen Feng nodded slightly.

"However, ... is a sensitive industry. Even if we want to cooperate, it's not that easy."

Chen Feng continued to probe.

"Indeed, it's not that easy. But it doesn't matter, we can find another way. I can authorize FDrt Company to export several fifth-generation ... aircraft to China. To be clear, we are already on our seventh generation... With your fifth-generation ... aircraft, you will accelerate the development of your own sixth-generation ... aircraft, thus narrowing the gap with..."

Bai Si continued in a low voice.

"Mr. Bai Si, this is a big move. May I ask what great benefits you can gain?"

Chen Feng asked directly.

"First, I can gain a huge market in China. Second, I can suppress the ... industry of Xcai Country and Qingshui Country. I really dislike these two countries, which are constantly encroaching on FDrt Company's international market. Of course, the most important point is that the ... government doesn't see it, but I do."

Bai Si said, keeping him in suspense.

"Tell me, what is it?"

Chen Feng asked with interest.

"The ... government is too naive, too childish. In today's globalized world, technology is difficult to blockade. Countries are not stupid. As long as they can buy products, they can dismantle them and imitate them. Rather than letting you dismantle and imitate, it's better to open up and develop together. Especially for China, your imitation ability is definitely number one in the world. Many high-tech products start with imitation and then gradually localize. In so many advanced fields, has ... stopped you? No! Since you can't stop it, why do you foolishly continue to blockade and give such a large market like China to other countries? The ... government is blinded by hatred, but I am not. Therefore, I choose to cooperate with China proactively."

Bai Si said sincerely.

Chen Feng completely agreed.

"Mr. Bai Si, your vision, to be honest, is truly great. The world today is a globalized world. Confrontation is not feasible. Only cooperation and harmonious coexistence are possible. However, if ... doesn't think so, this matter is very tricky."

Chen Feng retorted to Bai Si.

"That's simple. FDrt Company doesn't show up directly. Let a third country appear."

Bai Si said excitedly.

"That's interesting. Go on."

"... has an important ally, the European Union. As long as the European Union doesn't have core conflicts with ..., the United States will not do much to the European Union even if it makes some mistakes. Simply put, FDrt Company exports ten fifth-generation ... aircraft to the European Union, and then lets EU companies re-export them to China. Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?"

Bai Si said excitedly.

"Brilliant."

Chen Feng couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

It must be said that most people from ... are very annoying. However, a small portion of people from ... are still very likable.

With FDrt Company's fifth-generation ... aircraft, China's ... aircraft research and development will have even stronger momentum.

"Mr. Bai Si, since you have such great sincerity, I will also show great sincerity. FDrt Company can establish a third-party company that bypasses ... and cooperate with our Chinese ... industry. In the future, one-third of China's market will belong to you."

Chen Feng said seriously.

"Mr. Chen, you are just the vice mayor of Mingshan City. Can you decide such a major matter?"

Bai Si probed.

"Ninety percent of China's chips are concentrated in Mingshan City. Tell me, can I decide?"

Chen Feng said calmly.

"Mr. Chen, I was superficial. I didn't expect this. Since both sides have sincerity, let's act according to our sincerity."

Bai Si eagerly took out a contract.

Chen Feng readily signed the contract.

In today's business world, no country can monopolize an industry. One must understand cooperation and sharing. If one person monopolizes, the result is the death of the industry.

For the industry to develop, competition and cooperation must be allowed.

Thus, Professor Wang Mingchuan's matter was perfectly resolved.

Chen Feng was in a very good mood.

After resting for a day in the capital, Chen Feng returned to Mingshan City.

"Chen Feng, you're finally back."

Qin Yan and Cheng Lu looked at Chen Feng with eagerness.

"Today is the first day for the three of us to officially take office. My return now is just in time."

Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Chen Feng, I think it would be better for me to give the position of Mayor of Mingshan City to you. That's what I think. I'm just a woman, and the opportunities for women to climb in the political arena are very small. I don't want to waste this precious opportunity to climb. It's better for you to take it. Besides, your talent in the political arena has long surpassed mine. It's very appropriate for you to be the mayor."

Qin Yan explained seriously.

"Mayor Qin, let me correct two points. First, you say that it is difficult for women to succeed in China's political arena. That is only partially true. In most cases, it is indeed difficult for women to succeed in the political arena, as China, unlike other countries, has very few female officials. However, on the other hand, it is good news. Precisely because there are few female officials, China wants to give foreigners the impression that there is no gender discrimination in China's political arena. Therefore, at every stage of the political arena, a woman will be arranged. This is a political task. That is to say, you don't need to have great abilities; as long as you are a woman, you will be promoted. Furthermore, my political abilities are indeed stronger than yours, but I am not yet suitable for the top position. The mayor's position has too many琐事, and I need to focus my energy on doing practical things. Therefore, the position of Mayor of Mingshan City is most suitable for you."

Chen Feng explained patiently.

"Chen Feng, after your explanation, I understand. However, right now, there is a huge challenge for me to be a good mayor of Mingshan City..."

Qin Yan said with a distressed expression.
