This time it was Simon that Soros took the initiative to make an appointment. Southeast Asia is where a financial giant's most proud battle happened in his life. The old man couldn't sit still when he heard it and was very curious about Simon's plan.

Playing with the beauty is enjoyable. Simon didn't mean to continue playing with Soros, so he simply came to the cafe at the club on the edge of the court. The two of them sat down and waited for the waiter to deliver the coffee. Soros asked directly.

Simon also explained the latest rhetoric to the other party again.

Obviously, Soros, like David Rubin, is both smart people. Smart people can easily find problems. For example, if Simon invests heavily in Southeast Asia, where the business environment is not as good as China, it is difficult to say that he makes money first. Since this is the case, there must be other considerations.

Since the other party also saw through it, Simon did not hide it when facing the old man's questioning and said, "Of course there are the considerations you mentioned, but George, frankly, I do these mainly for the longer-term interests of the Westeros system."

"Long-term..." Soros obviously still doesn't believe it: "Simon, what do you mean is that as long as you pull the timeline longer, the area of ​​Southeast Asia will develop in the future?"

"Who knows what will happen in the future," Simon shrugged: "I only know that Japan and South Korea have developed under the eyes of the Federation."

Soros instinctively grasped the key accurately: "Then, is China?"

The old man was too keen, and Simon nodded and said, "Then, it's China!"

"In this case, we should indeed make some preparations," Soros said. "However, it is obviously not enough to just invest heavily in Southeast Asia to develop the economy and share China's potential."

"I'm only going to do this for the time being," Simon shrugged: "If you have other ideas, you can also execute them."

Soros looked at Simon again for a moment and suddenly smiled: "Simon, the one I knew in the past is not a kind guy."

Simon also smiled at the other party: "George, why do you think, am I now?"

After a brief silence, Soros realized that the young man in front of him would probably not reveal more about this matter, nor would he waste saliva. He picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip, and then said: "Simon, Europe, I mean, Russia, the new president will be officially inaugurated next month. According to the information I received since last year, I always feel that there is your shadow behind this matter?"

In the Russian general election in March, only the first round of voting, someone finalized the presidential throne with an absolute majority of more than 50%. There was no need to conduct the second round, and the final inauguration ceremony was scheduled on May 7.

Simon didn't expect Soros to mention this matter. Since he was noticed, he did not deny it. He nodded again and said, "I also have a lot of business in Russia."

"Many of them took over from me," Soros teased with discomfort, and then said, "I'm actually wondering if the new president has a good relationship with you in private, because I found that your spokesperson in Russia, Mikhail Friedman, is it, he is very active in the core circle of Moscow during this period and has a good relationship with the new president. He has appeared in the camera more than once."

Of course, Simon must firmly deny this kind of thing: "George, I don't deny that I have had some dealings with Yeltsin, but the new president, frankly, has made some investments, but certainly there aren't the things you think."

"Really?"

"certainly."

Soros was obviously disappointed and regretful. I don’t know if it was disappointed that Simon refused to confess to him or if he regretted that Simon had no deep connection with the new president.

Simon looked at the expression of the old man opposite, remembering something, and asked with a smile: "I'm very curious, George, you have obviously been very interested in Russia, so what is your ultimate goal?"

Soros hesitated a little, and finally looked at Simon and said, "I hope to further dismember this country, at least to ensure that the country's political system will not be repeated. You must know that Simon, the Soviet Union has caused too much harm to the world."

Simon recalled the old man's background and probably understood that the shadow was too deep. He smiled and said, "The question is, do you think that Russia, for example, last year, had a GDP of only 190 billion US dollars, which was less than one-forty of the federal government, could still pose a threat to the world?"

Soros quickly calmed down and said, "Simon, this is just a number. You should understand that the former Soviet Union left a industrial foundation for Russia, especially the military industry. It also has more than 10,000 nuclear warheads. Isn't this a threat to the whole world?"

Simon asked without comment and said, "So, George, what do you think of the Federation that also has tens of thousands of nuclear warheads?"

Soros was silent.

Soros is not an ideal young man in the Third World who only thinks that everything is brilliant and flawless when he sees the United States. As a very smart person, he is still at the top of the social pyramid where he can learn more information. Of course, he knows what the United States is like.

For example, the public opinion of Western society always exaggerates the evil Soviet Union used nuclear weapons to threaten its opponents many times. However, since Hiroshima Nagasaki, the United States has also publicly threatened to use nuclear weapons. In recent years, many plans have been exposed one after another, and more than one detailed plan for how many nuclear warheads are deployed in various major cities of competitors.

However, as the winner of the bipolar battle and as the most powerful economy in the world today, the dark side of the United States is naturally ignored by most people. After all, the winner has everything.

After a moment, Soros finally said: "The Federation is always different. Our power division system is enough to ensure that there will be no madman like Hitler who wants to destroy the world."

When Simon heard the old man say this, he could only shruggle. He thought of a madman in the original time and space who unexpectedly ascended the throne of the US president. This time he would definitely not allow something like absurd to happen again. However, he also knew that it was an inevitable result of the development of American history. There would be no golden retrievers, but populist presidents such as white and green hair would appear.
