"It makes sense." Cang Hao nodded heavily: "If a person cannot respect his identity, such a person is not enough to cooperate. What's more, this cooperation will further open up the technological gap between us and NATO."

Pang Jindong let out a light breath: "Then let's refuse him, I guess he must be very unhappy."

"He must be unhappy, but I think you feel a little disappointed when you look at your attitude," Cang Hao asked with a smile: "Is it because of a political entity?"

Pang Jindong was really disappointed: "I have established a country. If I have the opportunity to build another one, I will be without regrets in my life."

Fatima nodded thoughtfully: "From ancient times to the present, it seems that few people have created two countries. Just this one, Mr. Pang, you can be famous in history."

"With that being said, you're right. Yu Longhe sent a poisonous apple." Pang Jindong said, shaking his head slowly: "If I eat it, I'll be poisoned."

Cang Hao said meaningfully: "In fact, if you want Canal City to gain political entity status, there is another way, which is to gain support from other camps, and you may not have to NATO."

Pang Jindong knew what Cang Hao meant: "Huaxia?"

"Yes." Cang Hao nodded: "Didn't the Mubang Republic be recognized first? Although it is definitely not as strong as NATO, it has taken a very important step."

Fatima was very surprised: "Hey, you are a Chinese. Do you think China's support is not as good as NATO?"

"Yes." Cang Hao nodded with certainty: "The biggest difference between me and many other Chinese people is that I can correctly evaluate the power comparison and calmly analyze the interests, rather than blindly being influenced by the scary feelings of being a word. For example, on this issue, you need to understand that the strength of any member state of NATO is not included in China, but they are a collective, and the collective economic power, international influence and military strength combined are much stronger than China."

Fatima questioned: "Then can't China lead other countries to join?"

"I'm afraid it's difficult." Cang Hao analyzed to Fatima: "NATO is a collective and an empire system. Many countries have common values ​​and similar cultures and lifestyles, so they are combined together. Moreover, many member states of NATO, including Britain and France, have their own younger brothers in the international community, mainly some former colonies, such as Africa. In contrast, China is actually very lonely, just a very powerful country, but they have no allies in the international community, and they don't even have younger brothers."

Pang Jindong nodded heavily: "So the influence of the two is different."

Fatima was strange: "Why is this happening?"

"If you want to explain this issue clearly, you need to make a long statement..." Pang Jindong shook his head: "It's not something that can be explained clearly in just a few words."

Cang Hao was about to speak when his phone rang. Cang Hao glanced at the number: "Actually, when we discussed it just now, we ignored a very important factor, that is, the attitude of China."

"That's right." Pang Jindong nodded: "Huaxia definitely doesn't want us to cooperate with NATO. If we agree to Yu Longhe today, Huaxia will take revenge on us tomorrow."

Cang Hao told Pang Jindong: "Didn't Meng Yanglong call me? I guess I'm just asking about this."

Pang Jindong had expected it: "Come on quickly."

Sure enough, as soon as Cang Hao answered the phone, Meng Yanglong asked directly: "Have Yu Longhe arrived in Canal City?"

Cang Hao nodded: "Yes."

"What did he say?"

Cang Hao recounted the talks between the two sides without any concealment: "It must be admitted that the conditions he offered are very tempting. If Canal City can obtain political entity qualifications, this will be of extraordinary significance to us."

Meng Yanglong was a little displeased: "Did you agree to say so?"

"Of course I didn't agree." Cang Hao laughed: "If I agreed, wouldn't I be so angry? You said you are quite old. If you really get angry with you, I can't take the responsibility."

"You refused to say so."

"I haven't made it clear to talk to Yu Longhe, but our internal control has reached an agreement. If you find an opportunity, you will show up with him." Cang Hao shook his head slowly: "Yu Longhe knows exactly what we want, and because of this, I don't like this person."

Meng Yanglong smiled meaningfully: "You should not just refuse Yu Longhe for me."

"What else can you do if it's not for you?"

"We have known each other for a few years." Meng Yanglong said, dragging his long voice: "You never care about my feelings. I don't believe that there are exceptions in this matter. If you reject Yu Longhe, there must be other factors. After comprehensive consideration, you think that the risk of cooperation with NATO is greater than the benefit."

"Don't I consider your relationship..."

"Canghao, I know you very well. You have never been someone who is emotional." Meng Yanglong let out a light sigh: "No matter what, since you didn't agree to Longhe, I still feel relieved."

"I know you don't want me to agree."

"If you agree, NATO has obtained the technology of the Skull Stripper, do you know what it means?" Meng Yanglong said in a heavy tone: "For decades, we have invested a lot of funds and various resources, and finally developed aerospace technology, and have come from behind and maintained a leading advantage around the world. If you nod, it means that our decades of hard work will be destroyed and will be overtaken in an instant. Do you know what it means?"

Cang Hao certainly knew: "There will be many people inside who hate me..."

"I can assure you that all cooperation between China and the Blood Lion Mercenaries will be cancelled, and you will no longer be our military contractor." Meng Yanglong told Cang Hao very bluntly: "I know Yu Longhe will definitely give you a lot of benefits, but what you really lose in the end is far more than what you get."

"The problem is that I don't want to lose anything." Cang Hao smiled and said, "It's better to have Yu Longhe's conditions, please provide me."

"How to compensate you and make Canal City a political entity? Now that China and Canal City have signed a large number of cooperation agreements, it has already shown our attitude."

"The agreement between Huaxia and Canal City is to be precise, a commercial agreement between Huaxia and Kara Group. Although Kara Group is actually the foundation of Canal City, the two are still different." Cang Hao shook his head slowly: "Kara Group is just an enterprise group, Canal City is a city, and this city only has part of its assets belonging to Kara Group, and many assets belonging to other enterprises and individuals. More importantly, Canal City has its own city government and council, which can completely represent its own city, not Kara Group."

Meng Yanglong understood what Cang Hao meant: "Do you hope that China will reach some cooperation with the Canal City Government or the Council?"

"Yes." Cang Hao means this: "Huaxia can invite council members to visit, and can also sign some municipal infrastructure investment agreements with the city government. That is to say, China's cooperation partner is not just the Kara Group. In this way, Canal City will be regarded as a political entity by the outside world. Since China sets this precedent, I believe that other countries will follow up in the future. In the end, no matter whether they become entity observers or not, at least the international community will regard Canal City as an independent individual."

Meng Yanglong said with emotion: "What you said is very simple, but it is difficult to operate. There must be a lot of objections within."

"I believe you can settle it." Cang Hao smiled and said, "Who is embarrassed to not listen to you?"

Meng Yanglong shook his head: "I'm not omnipotent, Cang Hao, you should know that there are many people who are dissatisfied with you within us. The reasons are that there are many, so you should make fewer requests and do more things now."

"If you do more, it's better to cooperate with Yu Long." Cang Hao smiled and said, "I can at least get some benefits. Anyway, many people in China don't like me, so sooner or later they will have to terminate the military contractor contract."

"Do you know some people are dissatisfied with you, precisely because of the skull splitter." Meng Yanglong told Cang Hao word by word: "You have mastered such important resources but are unwilling to contribute to the country. Do you think many people are unhappy?"

Cang Hao laughed dryly: "Don't you understand why I did this?"

"Of course I understand. I know who you are, but not everyone is like this." Meng Yanglong sighed: "You must not cause trouble for yourself."

Cang Hao nodded heavily: "I understand."

Meng Yanglong hung up the phone without saying anything.

Fatima heard the content on the phone and asked hurriedly: "It seems that Meng Yanglong doesn't support Canal City as a political entity?"

"He really didn't express his support or not." Cang Hao replied meaningfully: "He is waiting for my attitude."

Fatima wondered: "What is your attitude?"

"First of all, see if I will agree to Longhe. Meng Yanglong is very worried. If I really agree, he will face huge pressure internally." Cang Hao took a deep breath: "After all, I was supported by him. The Blood Lion Mercenary to become a legal military contractor is mainly the result of his operation. If I really make ourselves lose our advantages in aerospace, others will definitely blame him, which makes him in a very embarrassing situation."

Fatima asked seriously: "But you certainly won't agree to Longhe, right?"

"Of course." Cang Hao nodded with certainty: "After Meng Yanglong called me, I found that I really couldn't agree to Longhe, otherwise the consequences would be really serious."

Fatima asked again: "Is there any other reason?"

"Secondly, Meng Yanglong also wants me to come up with some of the technology." Cang Hao accurately figured out Meng Yanglong's thoughts: "As long as there is a certain technical return, he can also make a contribution internally, which can calm other people's dissatisfaction with the Blood Lion mercenaries."

Fatima asked again: "So what are you going to do?"
