In the morning, New York's dazzling sunlight through the floor-to-ceiling windows prevented Andy from opening his eyes.

Ivana stretched out her hand to slap beside her, fluttered, turned over, turned to the sky, lazily opened her arms, stretched her waist, yawned, and sat up.

Reached out and grabbed his hair, looked at the clock on the wall, it was 8 o'clock, today is the day he left New York, flew to Los Angeles, participate in the shareholders meeting of Qualcomm tomorrow, February 6th, flipped the table, officially became Qualcomm Board of directors, complete the final closing!

Wow

The shower shower burst out of the hot bath water and washed away the crystallized post-war remnants on Andy's body.

After washing, Andy was wearing a white bathrobe, scrubbing his hair, walking out of the bedroom, and down the stairs.

Ivana, wearing a black robe with white flowers and a belt on a dark blue background, heard the footsteps going downstairs, raised her eyebrow and smiled, holding a cup of coffee, and appeared on the first floor stairs, watching Andy come down.

"Good morning, dear."

"good Morning"

Andy smiled and kissed Ivana, then took over the hot, fragrant coffee, stretched out her arms and walked towards the sofa in the living room.

"This morning, you didn't‘ call 'with zui yourself, I'm really a little bit upset. "

After the two sat down, Andy put the coffee cup on the table and laughed at Ivana with a side smile.

"You guy ..." Ivana's mouth turned upwards, and sweet smile Jiao gave Andy a hammer, but, knowing that his man was verbal, and didn't care, he picked up the newspaper on the table and handed it to him.

"Let's take a look first, the fryer is already out there!"

"Huh?" Andy frowned as he took the newspaper and opened it. "What happened?"

"Uncle Oston's proposal really struck Ma Honeycomb this time, and the nations are excited. The major trading partners of the United States have angered and blasted the" Buy American "clause. They have said that this clause violates the main Economic leaders pledged "not to resort to protectionism" and warned that a trade war could be provoked. "

"Buy American policy may trigger a trade war!"

"A proposal with a clear protectionist hue!"

"Economic patriotism, this approach may meet political needs!"

"Protectionism is the" poison "against the financial crisis!" ...

Almost all of which are biased titles, Andy sneered and said, "It's really anger! But is this Canadian finance minister crazy, and he even threatened the United States to launch a trade war? Oh, to be honest, weekdays Here, it ’s really good for them, so I just mentioned them a little bit. They jumped out like stepping on a mine and threatened us in turn. It was ridiculous! "

However, it is not surprising that the major trading partners are so angry that it is the United States that strongly calls for free trade. Under the circumstances that the world faces economic and financial challenges, the United States ’program to deal with economic difficulties may increase" purchases " The "American goods" clause not only violates the principle of free trade, but also runs counter to the spirit of everyone working together to overcome difficulties in times of crisis, which has aroused the concerns of all parties.

As for why the 'U.S. Priority' proposal suffered a full range of targeting and anger as soon as it was proposed, mainly because these trading partners who are all counting on the United States to help out of the financial crisis are really afraid that this proposal will really be passed by some forces .

This is not a trivial matter, but these American allies have a very deep understanding of the American boss. You must know that the United States is a very strange country. It is one of the countries in the world where the government has been abducted by the people. One.

If the American people were really fooled into producing economic patriotism, once the trend was formed, no one in Washington would stand up and vote against it, including the big tree called the president, which lay in the wind in the wilderness!

So, in the United States, sometimes, a proposal that feels very weird, if it really hurts some interests, it must be taken seriously from the beginning, because in Washington, anything can really happen, even if it is a trivial matter. Give it enough attention!

Because once it is passed, it is not so easy to want to overthrow it!

Andy quickly glanced at the reactions reported in the newspapers, and Treasurer Darling said that it is more necessary than ever to fight protectionism. German Finance Minister Steinbrück also pointed out that during the Great Depression of the 1930s, there was a very destructive protectionist situation, which triggered a trade war between countries. Will repeat itself.

The Consumer Electronics Association warns that the government promises to comply with international norms, but it is meaningless, and will trigger trade retaliation in various countries, causing Americans to lose valuable jobs instead of stimulating the economy and a series of opposition voices.

What's more, Andy cries, the opposition camp also pointed out that buying low-priced imported goods and buying American goods is estimated to increase the construction cost by a quarter and may delay the start of construction in the economic stimulus plan because To ensure that employees comply with the statute, separate regulations must be established.

In a word, the proposal of ‘America First’ with a strong protectionist color is absolutely wrong, unacceptable, and a common enemy of countries around the world!

Andy sneered and dismissed this, but he also knew that the current US government would never play protectionism because now for the United States, the financial crisis is almost finished and it is ready to start bottoming out. It has rebounded. It is precisely when it is necessary to benefit from countries all over the world. How can the United States offend the little friends at this time!

But if anyone really dares to fight the trade war, then they really think too much. To be honest, in the world of bilateral trade, no country has ever done the United States.

The United States has the world's largest domestic demand market, and it has an unparalleled advantage in high-tech areas. In addition, the manufacturing base has now been transferred to the dynasty and neighboring countries in Asia, which can completely reduce dependence on low-end products of trading countries. Therefore, fighting it is really asking for trouble.

"Is there any problem with Uncle Oston?" Ivana had already read these reports and looked at Andy, who had been sneering, asking without worry.

"What can be the problem? Oh, rest assured, not only will it not be a problem, my dad was really on the stage this time and established his political rookie status!" Andy smiled, closed the newspaper and reached out to shoot Slap Ivana's little hand, relieved.

Of course, this is not that Andy just comforts Ivana, but it is a big truth. His father ’s proposal was originally a full representation of the values ​​of the US Elephant Party and favored protectionism. Therefore, it will not only become a target of criticism. On the contrary, it will get the widest support within the Elephant Party, and at the same time it will leave the deepest impression on the people who support the Elephant Party!

"Okay, things have begun to ferment, it's not a question we should care about, we can just wait for a good show, huh, huh, the G7 finance ministers and central bank governors meeting in France this month, there really is Look at the fun, maybe Geithner will be ganged up and attacked, haha ​​... "Andy gloated at Ivana with a gleeful laugh and stepped into the restaurant full of rich breakfast.
