Chapter 398: Can't live without borrowing money

Needless to say, the content of the letter must be very important, but it also made Philip very embarrassed.

Even the phone call didn't feel formal enough, for fear that he would refuse.

Frowning, holding the envelope and tapping it on the table, Li Changheng reacted fiercely in Jody's worried eyes.

Philip is not Andrew's second-hand. If he is really anxious or has to do something, writing a letter is not a good choice.

After opening the envelope and looking at it a few times, he rolled his eyes.

He left the letter on the table and stared at Jody, "Anne hasn't married me yet. It's not appropriate for us to be lobbyists on behalf of England.

If you really can't find a candidate, let Princess Margaret and her husband Anthony go to Washington. "

Jody shook his head without thinking, "Princess Margaret is absolutely not good, what she has done for so many years..."

"Ahem."

Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Li Changheng coughed a few times, then looked at Annie, who was curious and uneasy.

Jody, who understood his failure, said helplessly after thinking about it, “Last year, England’s fiscal deficit reached 1.2 billion pounds. If we don’t get assistance from the Americans, we still don’t owe money.

Not only will the pound depreciate, it will also lose its credibility and lose face internationally.

Moreover, once a large number of speculators are bearish on the pound, and a large number of sell-offs, England's already declining economy will be worsened, and it will even become a third-rate economy. "

"so serious?"

Annie was so frightened that she covered her mouth, but she immediately reacted when she saw the contemptuous expression on Li Changheng's face.

This matter is certainly not as serious as Jodi said, or Li Changheng has other ways to solve the matter.

Then in Jody's expectant gaze, Annie pouted, not as he thought to persuade Li Changheng.

Instead, he stood up and said, "Gentlemen, I will prepare morning tea for you."

In the end, Jody tried to persuade him for a long time, but Li Changheng just didn't agree with him no matter what conditions he put forward.

Sending away the disappointed Jody, Li Changheng stood on the not-to-say promenade, looking at the sea in the distance, but thinking with contempt in his heart.

If it was a year or two ago, or if you changed the total barrel, the money was actually quite easy to borrow.

But the situation at this time is that the Americans themselves are short of money and next year is the general election year. Only at this time will fools pay billions of dollars to support England without strings attached.

The person who came up with this idea would either treat him as a fool, or just calculate the money in his pocket in his heart.

After all, starting in December last year and now more than three months on March 19th, more than 900,000 calculators have been sold in the United States, Maple Leaf Country, and South America.

Book sales of 162 million US dollars.

No one outside knows what the net profit is, but some people in England definitely feel that the profit from the calculator is enough to pay the interest on the money owed by England.

It is straightforward to make sure that no one is really stupid to that extent, but lending money to England at this time is definitely a lost business.

Once the Bretton Woods system collapsed this year, when the U.S. dollar was decoupled from gold, although the U.S. dollar would definitely depreciate this year, it would still be the U.S. dollar no matter how much it depreciated.

But the pound depreciated fundamentally, and even when the depreciation was even greater, the whole world and even the English people would laugh at him if the English returned the pound to him.

"My dear, is it really okay to just refuse?"

Li Changheng put his arm around Annie and kissed her on the forehead. "Do you really think England can't borrow money?"

Annie was taken aback, looked up and asked, "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple. Some people in Downing Street just want to borrow money and don't want to accept additional conditions from the Americans."

After listening to Li Changheng's words, Annie suddenly understood that they were being calculated.

Then he looked at him carefully and asked, "Then why does my father write to you?"

"rest assured".

Li Changheng, who had misunderstood Philip before, smiled and hugged Annie tightly, "Your father should have to agree to Downing Street because of his identity, but he knows my character and thoughts.

That's why I wrote a personal letter to tell me that this matter has nothing to do with personal feelings and relationships.

Since it is an official business, of course I can refuse it. "

"That's good."

Annie hugged Li Changheng's waist with her hands, her face pressed against his shoulders, and she said with great relief, "Should we go on a trip to avoid these annoying things?"

"This can't work."

Li Changheng shook his head, "Since your father is on my side in disregard of the financial crisis in England, I definitely can't leave all the problems on him."

After thinking for a while, smiled and continued, "Help me prepare something for a business trip. I'll go to Santa Clara to see how the chip research is.

If there is no problem, sell the chips to the nobles as soon as possible.

While making money, your father will have less pressure when waiting for the nobles to invest in the home appliance industry and increase the employment rate. "

"Humph", Annie patted his chest with a pouting mouth, "Don't forget you told me that you want to exchange shares in the London Telephone Company with Devin and Grand Duke Campbell."

Li Changheng smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Then do you think I should give it away for nothing, or make more money for us and the children in the future?"

Annie replied without even thinking about it, "Of course it's more money."

But after a few seconds, she frowned and muttered, "But too much money is not necessarily a good thing for the children."

Li Changheng said dismissively, "The rich people always have less troubles than ordinary people."

Annie suddenly didn't know how to refute this.

The next morning, Li Changheng walked into Intel's new headquarters under the **** of eight bodyguards.

Then accompanied by the Big Three such as Robert, I saw the legendary 4004 chip.

After only listening to Moore for more than ten minutes, he knew that there were only two fingernail-sized chips in front of him, which were definitely more advanced than the ones in the other world.

"What's the cost?"

Robert looked around ~lightnovelpub.net~ Except for Moore and Andy, everyone else was far from the four bosses of the company with great eyesight.

Then Andy whispered, "I have calculated it myself, if it is produced in units of 10,000, one is about 46 dollars."

Li Changheng nodded with a frown, "The cost is so high? How much do you plan to set the price at?"

Robert was a little worried that Li Changheng would feel that the three of him had not discussed with him, and decided on the price.

But when the contract was signed, it was indeed agreed, and it was even written in the contract that before the three of them made a mistake, the company was managed by them.

Fortunately, Andy probably really trusts Li Changheng, or feels that he has the least shares, and he must tell the truth to get more opportunities.

Seeing that Robert didn't speak, he took the initiative to speak after waiting for ten seconds, "The price is set at 200 US dollars. As for the issue of cost reduction.

After large-scale production, it should be able to reduce by 20% to 30%.

Moreover, according to Moore's Law, the cost should be reduced to half after the technological optimization of the post-age factories. "
