I'm not really a god of rebirth

Odin has come to the island.

Also came Marilyn.

The two came to visit Li Dong's children.

Come by for a tour.

However, Li Dong felt that Odin must have something to tell him when he came here suddenly.

Sure enough, after playing on the island for two days, Odin dragged Li Dong to the beach and said to him directly: "The projects you cooperated with SARS have aroused great reactions among us. , many people said that the cooperation plan between you must be stopped, because it will seriously threaten our interests in SARS, and then affect our interests in the world."

Li Dong sneered and asked, "What about you? What's your attitude?"

Odin smiled lightly and said, "Me? Is my attitude important?"

Li Dong said: "For me and Kabir, it is important."

Odin put away his smile and said: "I can understand the choice of SARS. Isn't there a saying in your Hua country that the prosperity of the world is for the benefit, and the world is full of hustle and bustle for the benefit. Every country, every government , everyone has the right to pursue their own interests, and no one can prevent others from pursuing their own interests. However, when pursuing their own interests, it will inevitably harm the interests of others. This creates conflicts, contradiction."

Li Dong shook his head: "You are zero-sum thinking, you have always been zero-sum thinking, and it is also a bandit thinking. You put your interests first, and you would rather let me bear the world than teach the world to bear me. Your interests are your enemies, and you will not hesitate to deal with your enemies. Don't you think your actions are excessive?"

Odin sighed softly: "You are right. Many people in our company do have this kind of thinking. But you say that this is the thinking of robbers. I don't agree. I think it should be said that it is the thinking of the strong. The strong master more With more resources, it is natural for the strong to formulate the rules of the game and maintain order. It is also a natural law. If the weak feel that it is unfair, they should try to become strong. After becoming strong, they can naturally formulate new rules. Get more resources."

Li Dong said: "Look, you keep talking about fairness, democracy, and freedom, but deep down, you still believe in the law of the jungle. You are really hypocritical."

Odin smiled: "Yes, we are indeed hypocritical, but this is human nature, dare you say that when you sit in our position and become the masters of this world one day, you will not do the same thing as us thing?"

Li Dong said: "We have been sitting in that position for thousands of years. Have you seen us do such a thing? For thousands of years, how have we set fires everywhere like you and bullied the weak?"

Odin said: "No?"

Li Dong said: "Is there?"

Odin said: "If not, then how did your territory come about today? Once your ancestors were just a small tribe in a large river basin, but now, you have a land of several million square kilometers. Where did this come from? Also, 1000 years ago, your great emperor led his iron cavalry and almost swept across the entire Euro, burning, killing, and looting. What he did was much worse than what we do now. These, You won't deny it, will you?"

Li Dong shook his head: "Although it's a little inappropriate for me to say these words, I still want to say that if you really understand history, you should know that 1000 years ago, we were actually victims of the emperor's iron cavalry, and after that, We were also the ones who overthrew the brutal rule of that great emperor. You wouldn’t deny that, would you? As for the territorial issue you mentioned, it’s all a historical issue, and it’s also an internal issue of our country. In comparison, yours Ancestors, ran to the New World, robbed other people's homes, and built your current country, the nature of this is much more serious than ours, right?"

Odin said: "Okay, let's not discuss these issues anymore, let's talk about the issues in Zhongzhou."

Li Dong said: "There is nothing to talk about in Zhongzhou. We and SARS adhere to the principles of equality, mutual benefit, and voluntary cooperation to develop new projects. Is there any problem?"

Odin sighed softly and said: "Li Dong, I hope you can understand that I came here and told you this because I treat you as a brother. If I didn't treat you as a brother, I wouldn't come here Here. You should also know what kind of impact it will have if I come to see you at this time. "

Li Dong looked at Odin, and after a long while, he said, "Okay, let me apologize to you first, I really shouldn't be angry with you just now, and I also know that many things are beyond your control."

Odin said, "It's good that you know."

Li Dong said: "Then you can say what you think now?"

Odin said: "This time, you and Sars have signed several cooperation agreements, including important basic projects such as water supply, chemical plants, roads, railways, and ports. dissatisfaction, but one thing to say, these projects did not really threaten our interests in Zhongzhou, and those who objected were only because these cooperative projects sent an unfriendly signal. But this time, Yu Feifei , also inspected several crude oil-related projects, especially the oil pipeline project, which is no small matter. Once this project is completed, it will directly threaten our interests. Therefore, the oil pipeline project is a red line. As far as I know, This time, Yu Feifei just went to inspect the oil pipeline project, and did not sign the relevant agreement, which is fine. Li Dong, I know that this oil pipeline project is also very important to you, but, as Brother, I sincerely hope that even if you want to do this project, don’t leave it to other people to do it. You don’t want to be used as cannon fodder by those people.”

After hearing this, Li Dong was silent for a while.

Odin's meaning has been made very clear.

If Donglai really participated in the oil pipeline project, he would be severely suppressed by Murray.

This result, I'm afraid Donglai won't be able to bear it.

Even if it is carried, it must be a heavy loss.

It's not worth Donglai's paying such a high price for an oil pipeline.

In Odin's view, Li Dong was used as cannon fodder by those above.

Seeing that Li Dong didn't speak, Odin continued: "I know that at present, it is most suitable for you to come forward for this project. Because of Kabir's relationship, SARS only trusts you, and the others go , I am afraid that SARS will not agree to cooperate. And when you come from the east, you also need such a project to fight for your domestic interests, including political and economic interests. I think you must have considered it, from The suppression on our side, you must have made a detailed balance between benefits and losses, but I still want to say, Li Dong, you must not underestimate our determination to safeguard our own interests. People, you really don't hesitate to start a war. The consequences are really not something you can bear. Moreover, I am not trying to provoke discord. If you think about it carefully, what the people behind you want to see most is a What kind of result? That is, the oil pipeline is built, and at the same time, Donglai collapses. For them, this kills two birds with one stone, but for you Donglai, it can only become cannon fodder for sacrifice.”

Li Dong smiled and said, "After talking for a long time, you just hope that I won't get involved in the oil pipeline project?"

Odin nodded: "I've explained the pros and cons to you clearly. You should know that what I'm saying is from the bottom of my heart."

Li Dong said: "Then what if I insist on an oil pipeline project? What will you do?"

Odin sighed lightly: "Why are you doing this? Is it worth it?"

Li Dong said: "Don't ask me if it's worth it, just tell me, what will you do?"

Odin was silent for a while, and then said firmly: "I will make a move. I would rather you be defeated by me than die by those people's hands."

Li Dong smiled and said: "Okay, I also want to have a serious contest with you."

Odin sighed helplessly: "Li Dong, why are you bothering? I know you want to develop the chip industry, so why don't you just develop your chip industry honestly? I can even use my relationship to help You develop your chip industry. As long as you make the chip industry bigger and stronger, your status in your country will not be low. Those people also depend on your face. Why do you have to get involved in the oil pipeline project? up?"

Li Donglue said with some puzzlement: "For you, the importance of the chip industry and crude oil should be about the same? Even, the chip industry may be more important. Why would you rather me develop the chip industry than me? What about mixing with pipelines?"

Odin rubbed his forehead: "Are you pretending to be confused with me? Luo Fei is in the business of crude oil, don't say you don't know. If you make chips, it affects others. Of course I don't care, and I'm even happy to see the results." , but if you make crude oil, it will affect Luo Fei, how can I ignore it?"

Li Dong suddenly realized: "So that's the case. If this is the case, then I will tell you the truth. At least for now, I haven't really made up my mind about the oil pipeline project. It's just that, as you know, the higher ups have given me a lot of support. There is a lot of pressure, I have to put on a show."

Odin also showed a look of sudden realization, and said: "I guessed so, as long as you don't get involved in the oil pipeline project, then I can help you make a move so that those people don't attack you."

Li Dong proudly said: "It's not necessary, as long as it's not you, I don't pay attention to others at all. If you are not afraid of death, just come."

Odin smiled: "You think highly of me, don't you?"

Li Dong said: "Heroes cherish each other."

Odin said: "However, I still have to see Kabir about this matter. Compared with your side, I am more worried about Kabir's side."

Li Dong was a little surprised: "Why?"

Odin said: "Can't you see it? Kabir is obviously very close to you now. Do you think those inside us will tolerate Kabir's existence?"

Li Dong's heart tightened: "Why, are you going to attack Kabir?"

Odin sighed: "Didn't you say that we are bandits thinking, and we will eliminate all those who threaten our interests without hesitation. Kabir is now in SARS, and his weight is getting heavier and heavier, but such a People, but they are on your side and against us everywhere, those people, of course, want to get rid of Kabir."

Li Dong said in a deep voice: "Then are you going to persuade Kabir not to stand with us?"

Odin shook his head and said: "It's not that you don't know Kabir's temperament. If I really persuade him like this, I'm afraid he will stand on your side more firmly, and it will be over. So, I have to find someone reason."

"What reason?" Li Dong asked.

"You don't need to worry about it. Anyway, I will not harm him, nor will I harm you. Who made the three of us brothers? Brothers who once swore to the sun." Odin said.

…………

Odin leaves.

As he said, he went directly to SARS and went to see Kabir.

Li Dong didn't know what he would say when he met Kabir, and whether he could persuade Kabir.

It's just that compared to these, Li Dong is more worried now, whether this will affect the big market two years later.

Donglai's influence is too great now.

Odin was attracted by just cooperating with SARS on a few projects without formally participating in the oil pipeline project.

Regardless of whether Odin came on behalf of himself or the people behind him, in short, with Odin's status and influence, his visit to Central Province will definitely have a considerable impact.

And these effects, after a series of chain reactions, are very likely to affect the market two years later.

Li Dong could only feel helpless about this.

I am also secretly praying in my heart, I hope the impact will not be too great.

After Odin left, Li Dong also told Hu Yue about his conversation with Odin.

When it was over, I asked Hu Yue what she thought of it.

Especially what Odin said, the matter of using him as cannon fodder.

Hu Yue pondered for a while, and said to Li Dong: "I have to say, what Odin said has some truth. We should always be vigilant against those old guys above, and we must not trust them completely."

Li Dong said: "Then the oil pipeline project, should we do it or not?"

Hu Yue pondered for a while, then said firmly: "Do it, you must do it."

Li Dong said: "However, that guy Odin came here to tell me this and warned me not to do it. It can be seen that their attitude is very firm. As long as we dare to intervene in the oil pipeline, they will definitely treat us. shot."

Hu Yue looked at Li Dong, smiled, and said, "Haven't you been preparing to fight them? Why, are you scared?"
