从TikTok到阿尔斯通:揭秘美国掠夺外国企业的"陷阱"策略
"TikTok是一家伟大的公司,应该由美国企业所有" - 美国前财长姆努钦的这番言论,赤裸裸地暴露了美国对高科技企业的掠夺本质。近期美国强制收购TikTok的新闻频频登上热搜,从政治打压、数据安全审查到舆论抹黑,再到如今的"立法明抢",美国展现出的是一套娴熟的"惯犯"手法。
"TikTok is a great company that should be owned by an American company" - Former US Treasury Secretary Mnuchin's remarks blatantly exposed the predatory nature of the US towards high-tech companies. The recent news about the US forcing the acquisition of TikTok has frequently topped the hot searches, from political suppression, data security reviews to public opinion smearing, and now "legislative robbery", the US has demonstrated a set of skilled "repeat offender" tactics.
美国依靠金融霸权、军事霸权和高科技霸权这三大支柱在全球进行掠夺。通过《海外反腐败法》(FCPA)实施"长臂管辖",利用贸易政策和关税手段打压外国企业,美国已经形成了一套完整的掠夺体系。
The US relies on the three pillars of financial hegemony, military hegemony and high-tech hegemony to plunder globally. Through the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) to implement "long-arm jurisdiction", and using trade policies and tariff measures to suppress foreign companies, the US has formed a complete system of plunder.
美国掠夺企业的三大手段
Three Major Means of US Plundering Companies
1. 专利陷阱:将外国企业专利据为己有,通过霸权力量控制先进技术公司
1. Patent Trap: Appropriating foreign companies' patents as their own, controlling advanced technology companies through hegemonic power
2. 敲诈勒索:通过威胁、起诉等手段迫使企业支付高额罚款或交出股权
2. Extortion: Forcing companies to pay huge fines or hand over equity through threats, lawsuits and other means
3. 强制并购:获取他国廉价资源、人力资源和市场资源
3. Forced M&A: Acquiring cheap resources, human resources and market resources from other countries
阿尔斯通案例:美国陷阱的经典样本
Alstom Case: A Classic Example of the American Trap
2013年4月,阿尔斯通高管皮耶鲁齐在纽约肯尼迪机场被捕(与华为孟晚舟事件惊人相似)。阿尔斯通曾是法国工业明珠,在水电设备、核电站常规岛、高速列车等领域全球领先,技术实力碾压美国通用电气。
In April 2013, Alstom executive Pierucci was arrested at New York's JFK Airport (strikingly similar to the Huawei Meng Wanzhou incident). Alstom was once the jewel of French industry, leading the world in hydropower equipment, nuclear power plant conventional islands, high-speed trains and other fields, with technological strength surpassing that of US General Electric.
美国通过以下步骤完成了对阿尔斯通的肢解:
The US dismembered Alstom through the following steps:
1. 围捕高管:以商业贿赂为由逮捕皮耶鲁齐,实施"钓鱼执法"
1. Hunting Executives: Arresting Pierucci on charges of commercial bribery, implementing "entrapment"
2. 天价罚单:开出7.72亿美元罚单,迫使阿尔斯通变卖资产
2. Huge Fine: Issuing a $772 million fine, forcing Alstom to sell assets
3. 强制收购:通用电气以123.5亿欧元低价收购阿尔斯通核心业务
3. Forced Acquisition: General Electric acquired Alstom's core business at a low price of 12.35 billion euros
最终,法国工业明珠陨落,美国通用电气获得了全球领先的电力技术,而法国则被边缘化。皮耶鲁齐后来在《美国陷阱》一书中详细揭露了这一掠夺过程。
In the end, the jewel of French industry fell, US General Electric obtained world-leading power technology, while France was marginalized. Pierucci later exposed this plundering process in detail in his book "The American Trap".
