Chapter 306 Second Hearing

Sean left the hospital and left some "activity funds" when he left.

"What are you trying to do? You're not really going to instigate them to rebel, are you?" Lorraine asked in a low voice on the way back.

"What do I do!" Sean spread his hands.

"You didn't know you were here!" Lorraine looked incredulous.

"I have nothing to do now, so I have nothing to do. If you have some time, let's play a few shots and see!" Sean ordered the team to go to the airport, and then turned around and replied.

"No one knows how things will happen in the future. If you play more free chess, maybe that free chess will suddenly come into play one day." Sean said with a smile.

"What is strategizing and decisive victory thousands of miles away? If you have money, it is called strategizing. I play a hundred chess pieces and as long as one of them works, I will make a lot of money. It doesn't cost much anyway!"

Sean looked indifferent. He just threw away 100,000 US dollars. I am a man who owes 1.5 million yuan in debt a day. How can I still owe 100,000 yuan more!

"Shen Bi's phone number." Lorraine suppressed a smile and handed the phone to Sean.

"You fucking spent another 250 million?!" Shen Bi came up and started to complain.

"I got 30% of the shares of Xingcheng Port for 250 million yuan. I can't do this business!?" Sean was unhappy on the spot.

"Of course we can do this business, but the problem is, there is no money!" Shen Bi said angrily: "I'm asking you, how much money have you made in the past six months, and how much have you spent!"

"Two large pieces of land in Los Angeles are used to build skyscrapers and invest in stadiums. This costs at least 500 million. Even if I clean up all your messy properties, the most I can do is fill this hole."

"You want to invest in Colombia's coal mines again, and ask for another 100 million!"

"Now I ask for 250 million. The money to open a fucking bank didn't come from the strong wind!"

As soon as Shen Bi came up, he gave Sean a good squirt.

"Then what do you think we should do? Xingcheng Port is stuck in Malacca, do you want this port?" Sean said with a stinky face.

"Put your gymnasium back and allocate the money first." Shen Bitu said bluntly. It wasn't that he wasn't optimistic about the gymnasium, but it was just that the results were too slow.

"Don't worry, I will immediately win the maritime defense orders for Xingcheng and Gangni. When the 200 million is obtained, I will be rich." Sean quickly stopped him.

"I can't afford to give you money now with two scraps of paper!" Shen Bi rolled his eyes and said, "And I'm warning you, if you blow up our British ship, then if HSBC If you are asked to repay the loan early for reasons such as safety, you will be in trouble!"

"How dare they!" Sean was furious. He stood up suddenly and hit his head on the roof of the car with a bang.

"How dare you ruin my good deeds? I'll let them know what the great pirate era is!"

"I will resurrect a pirate from Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, and Somalia, specializing in robbing British merchant ships!"

"You..." One sentence left Shen Bi speechless, "Okay, okay, please stop causing trouble. Oh my God, can't you think of something that a businessman should do?"

"Merchant? Armed merchant ship!?" Sean tilted his head and said.

Shen Bi: Forget it, let’s change the topic.

"I know you have plans in Guajira, but I'm telling you, if you don't have any money, you should stop spending money like crazy!"

"There is still a lot of 'money' in Cartagena that has not been used. It can be used directly. It is an area occupied by anti-government armed forces anyway, and the circulation is not strong, so it is not a big problem."

Shen Bi didn't want to talk and hung up the phone directly.

Sean looked at the beeping phone with a speechless expression, "This old man is getting more and more grumpy."

The motorcade went straight to the airport. Akina was about to arrive. She hadn't touched her girl in many days... She hadn't seen her anymore, and Sean missed her very much.

Xingcheng Airport has a large flow of people, but there is a large space where Sean stands.

After all, 10 or so bodyguards in black are not good people at first glance. Who would dare to get close to him at this time?

Akina, who was wearing sunglasses and a mask, saw Sean as soon as she came out. There was only one person standing in the only open space in the dense airport. It was strange that he was not conspicuous!

Akina immediately threw herself into Sean's arms. After all, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a month.

After leaving the airport all the way, Sean was not going to eat out at night.

There is delicious food in the room...

…

The next day, Sean was up late again until Lorraine knocked on the door!

The fleet will arrive in Gangni today, and Sean must show up. He will also take a helicopter there soon.

Wash, eat, board the helicopter and head east.

Fortunately, the Black Hawk had a long enough range and caught up with the Umbrella fleet after 3 hours.

This was Akina's first opportunity to build an armed helicopter and board a battleship for the first time. She followed Sean timidly, but her eyes widened.

Everything I look at feels novel.

"How long does it take to reach the Gangni Sea?" Sean looked at Robert and asked.

Robert glanced at the woman next to Sean, "There's still half an hour."

"Is there any reaction from Fanni?"

"Well, we made a phone call before and the other party is waiting for us at the sea border."

Sean clicked his tongue with a smile on his face, "In the final analysis, cannons are justice, range is truth, and speaking well will never be as powerful as a cannon."

"So, it's time to fight this battle with Ma Lai. It's still worth it. This pattern will open up instantly!"

As he spoke, Sean raised his right fist high, "I opened the sky with one punch and transformed into a dragon!"

Robert and others nodded frequently. Yes, the dragon is the incarnation of evil in the West. Sean's self-comparison seemed very self-aware.

On the other hand, Ming Cai, who was holding Sean's clothes, her eyes lit up, and her sudden words made her smell something different.

Robert had already prepared it, and there was no need for Sean to do anything. He took Akina on a tour of the battleship.

Gangni’s small fishing boat once again led the way. I don’t know why, but this time Bangni’s small fishing boat deliberately opened a little more distance...

As soon as he entered Fanni Port, Sean heard the roaring salute from the shore, and inexplicably felt that the salute was not affected by moisture today.

The shore was piled with flowers. It could be seen that King Jiji had prepared it in advance this time.

The smile is much brighter!

Every time King Bangni came to greet him, he always brought his wife with him. As a result, Sean asked Akina to follow him, and Akina waved her hands in shock.

Seeing that she was so nervous that she was about to cry, Sean had no choice but to give up and let her follow behind.

It's the same welcome ceremony again, and Sean has been getting tired of it for a while.

After going through a set of procedures, Sean felt a little absent-minded.

King Jiji obviously noticed this and signaled to speed up the progress and advance the talks between the two parties.

Sean became energetic and started outputting, "Unfortunately, Labuan's Eastern Navy is holed up in the port, and there are no planes taking off from Labuan's air force base!"

King Jiji and others looked at Sean in bewilderment, are you really prepared to drive the Malays to death?

So cruel!

Labuan, a federal territory in Malay, is a small island.

The location is right next to Bangni, only 22 kilometers away from Bangni. Sean can see Labuan Island in the distance from King Jiji's palace.

Today's Labuan Island is a purely military zone, like a dagger pointed at Bangni's neck at close range.

The purpose is naked!

This is also one of the reasons why King Jiji has not agreed to sign the maritime cooperation agreement before. It was too close.

Of course, before that, and now, Sean gave the Malays a hard lesson in Malacca.

It is said that this has also caused some problems within the Malays, and some conflicts have arisen between the military and the Malay top brass!

Now the Malay Eastern Fleet and Air Force Command stationed in Labuan don't say what they are doing. Everyone on the island is on alert, for fear that Sean will do something!

Labuan Island is now within range of Sean's missiles!

Sean saw the reaction of King Jiji and everyone, and was very satisfied with his results. "I think I have fully demonstrated the strength of the umbrella. Xingcheng has signed the agreement. So, do you have any questions?

?”

King Jiji looked at Sean and said word by word: "The contract can be signed. We don't have any problems. There are only a few problems that need to be solved by Mr. Sean, such as the pirates who suddenly appeared on the sea!!"

"In the past few days, this group of pirates has been harassing everywhere, greatly disrupting the oil company's mining progress, and causing more than a dozen casualties. I wonder what Mr. Sean thinks of this!"

"Pirates!?" Sean looked 'surprised', "Look, let me tell you, when a large amount of wealth appears on the sea and you don't have enough defense power, corresponding pirates will inevitably appear."

King Jiji was shocked. He said it so naturally. How dare you show off!

"However, King Jiji, don't worry, as long as we sign the agreement, pirates will be nothing to worry about." Sean seemed not to see King Jiji's expression, and said to himself: "It's just about dealing with pirates, I will be here

An emergency response center is deployed at sea, and our protective umbrella has been calculated. If an attack occurs anywhere, armed helicopters can arrive at the scene within 15 minutes."

"There is nothing that one missile cannot solve. If there is, then two missiles!"

"It's just pirates. Kill more and they will be gone!"

Seeing that Sean was determined to carry out his shamelessness to the end, King Jiji gave up the pursuit.

What else could happen?

I can't beat you anymore, and I don't have anywhere to sue, so just endure it!

"The second question is that after signing, it is foreseeable that Malaysia will definitely call on ASEAN member states, including Indonesia, to collectively oppose it."

"This is just a normal business transaction between a company and a country. If some countries feel that they can wantonly destroy the international business environment and use politics to interfere with global trade freedom, then they will definitely be punished!!" Sean said expressionlessly.

said.

Sean already has his own theory on how to convince the White House to support him.

He is sure to do this.

Seeing that Sean took care of the problem, King Jiji didn't say anything more and directly signed the agreement with Sean.

Like Sri Lanka, Sean will keep a warship stationed here for a long time. Combined with his own maritime power, he is fully capable of defending the entire maritime territory of just over 100 kilometers.

After the contract was signed, Sean's expression became obviously much more relaxed, and he whispered into King Jiji's ear: "How did you think about it, Lin Meng's matter."

"Twelve billion is simply impossible. We can't afford that much money."

King Gigi's answer made Sean's eyes light up. It wasn't rejection, it meant he had an idea!

"Then how much money do you think you can take out?" Sean asked with interest.

King Jiji opened his five fingers and made a gesture.

"5 billion?! Are you crazy? You're buying clothes from me, and you cut it in half and wipe out zeros!" Sean's eyes widened immediately.

"No, I mean, 500 million!" King Gigi looked at Sean with a smile.

Sean was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand to take out his ears, and looked at King Gigi in disbelief.

I’ve never heard of such an exorbitant bargain!

Seeing King Jiji nod, Sean stood up and left without saying a word. There was no way to negotiate this business.

"Don't worry!" King Jiji grabbed Sean and said, "600 million!"

"Let's go!" Sean waved his hand vigorously. You are so generous. One plus is 100 million, right?

"You have a question to consider. Lin Meng is easy to conquer, but we only have a small population in Bangni." King Jiji said with a distressed look on his face: "The national welfare of Bangni is very high. There is no cost for medical treatment, and there is no cost for housing.

Spending money, taking a bus for free, going to school for free, these high benefits make most young people have no desire to join the military."

"We don't have enough troops. I won't be able to defend it even if we attack it!"

Sean looked at King Jiji quite speechlessly, and only listened to the other party say: "The total force now is only 4,000, and it is divided into three armies: sea, land and air force. In fact, I will not hide it from you. The only ones with real combat effectiveness are the 1,000 Gurkha mercenaries."

military."

"We must defend after the defeat. In order to appease the residents of Limbang area, we must invest in development and construction. Various benefits must be expanded. We must continue to hire troops for defense. Malay will not willingly give up Limbang.

Yes, this is an important rice-producing area, and fighting costs money!"

Sean really wanted to tell the other party, what does it have to do with me to spend money on war?

However, what King Jiji said is true. This small country is quite big, with a total population of only 300,000. It is indeed...

Sean can bulldoze the mud right now!

I originally thought about cutting off the flesh of this oil guy, Fan Ni, to reduce my debt a little bit, but now it seems that that is nonsense!

Sean doesn't think it's cost-effective to have him start a fight with Malay over a few hundred million, and face international public opinion and infamy, so that every country will be on guard against him in the future.

He is not really crazy, he has to completely piss off the Malays.

"Your difficulties are not something I can solve. Let's discuss Lin Meng's matter later!"

This time, King Jiji couldn't hold Sean back.

Looking at Sean's background, King Gigi didn't have much regret on his face. Instead, he touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

From this point of view, Sean's mention of taking back Lin Meng should not be the intention of the US government, because if it was a national mission, then Sean should have followed the steps he gave, instead of refusing without hesitation.

In that case, this matter can be considered...

…

Sean doesn't care what King Gigi has up his sleeve.

The contract was signed, and King Jiji's money came first.

Compared with Xingcheng, King Jiji has a larger land area, but is less confident. If he doesn't give money, Sean won't be able to garrison troops, and he won't be able to deal with harassment at sea.

Of course, he can also buy a Black Hawk helicopter gunship if he has money.

The problem is that the United States may not sell Hellfire to him.

And Sean is obviously standing behind those pirates. If the Black Hawk is knocked down with another missile, it will be tragic.

Many times, it's not that some weak countries are reluctant to invest in military, or as the same saying goes, if you have production capacity, then I will sell you the product. If you don't have production capacity, then you can't even spend money to buy it.

The largest orders for American arms companies always come from domestic sources, and they will not go against the White House for a small profit.

Besides, the price of arms sold through White House will increase several times.

Just like the Blackhawks, if Sean got the whole package, 7 million US dollars would be enough. If it were replaced by another country, he wouldn't even think about it if it didn't have 40 million.

Of course, there is no problem if you buy the castrated version. For example, if you buy a rabbit, it will be used to perform high-altitude transportation tasks instead of going into battle.

After receiving 100 million U.S. dollars, Sean didn't rush to call Xingcheng. Money is worth just one more day.

Poor!

Sean quickly forgot about the depressing fact that he was poor, and took Akina to play in Gangni for two days.

Only two days.

Two days later, Sean was going to return to China, and Washington had already been in contact with the Malay side regarding Sean's "attack" incident.

The Malays "shamelessly" slandered Sean. They even said that Sean launched the missile first. This was simply shameless!

On the other hand, the United Nations also accepted Sean's appeal, and Sean will go to court with the Malay side at the United Nations in the near future.

There is also the Kadip Armed Forces. After receiving the express delivery of arms, they are also fully prepared.

There are so many things to keep busy with!

The Golden Palace made a circuit from Tokyo and sent Akina back by the way.

…

Washington.

After coming down from the Sky Palace, Sean got into his extended Lincoln and said, "Norris, should I buy a property in one of the big cities around the world!"

“I don’t think it’s very convenient to stay in a hotel.”

"Of course, boss, I also think you have too little real estate. You have always said you would buy a manor in New Jersey, but you have never bought it. I think you are simply too frugal!" Norris said with certainty.

Sean nodded in agreement. Indeed, he was still too frugal!

Lorraine looked around at the two people, then turned to look at the 30-person convoy behind him. This was so frugal.

"I'll have to ask Reagan to help me find a house later!" Sean said with a relaxed look.

Norris couldn't keep up and started coughing. Sure enough, the boss is the boss, and he still can't keep up with the boss's pretentiousness!

Are you crazy or am I crazy for asking the fucking President of the United States to help you find a house?

Norris took people to the hotel to settle in, and Sean went directly to the white house.

After all, it is a palace in the sky. There is no such problem as being tired from flying and being unable to work.

As Sean's car parked at the white house, the staff who had been waiting for him immediately came to greet him.

The President's Office is already waiting for Sean.

This was not the first time that Sean saw Reagan. Reagan's face was very fat, but not big. After all, he was an actor. Actors generally have small faces.

After meeting, shaking hands, and chatting for a while, Sean declined the invitation to visit the White House, and the group went directly to the office to start talking about business.

"Sean, this matter is more troublesome than you think. You have to know that this is the first time in the world that a private company has gone to war with a country." Reagan opened the door and made the matter very serious.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Too many things like this happen in Africa!" After Sean said this, the scene became a little cold.

Everyone stared at each other, but Reagan reacted the fastest and took the lead in laughing.

The others followed, but their voices were awkward.

Obviously, in the eyes of Reagan and others, Africa is not a country at all, it is just a tribe!

"Okay, no more joking, how serious is that?" Sean coughed lightly, a bunch of old guys, they didn't understand any humor at all.

"Many of our congressmen are dissatisfied with your actions. No matter who fires first, it will bring our relationship with Malay to a deadlock, which will be harmful to our influence in Southeast Asia."

"Who, who said that? That's bullshit. Let him stand up!" Sean stopped on the spot.

"Sean, calm down!" Old Bu quickly raised his hand to comfort Sean.

The Sean now is no longer the same Sean who looked up to him. Lao Bu couldn't help but sigh.

"That's the way it is, you know, that's what our MPs do every day, express opinions, argue, that's understandable, so there will be a hearing that you need to attend, and you need to elaborate on your code of conduct.

.”

"Okay." Sean didn't care about this.

"Do you need a live broadcast?" Lao Bu said thoughtfully.

Sean thought for a while and said, "Some words seem inappropriate to tell the public."

Reagan and Boo looked at each other, and it seemed that Sean really had some ideas, "Can you tell me first?"

Sean nodded and expressed some of the ideas he had been thinking about during this period. For example, the Strait of Malacca will be the choke point to the Asian continent.

It is well known that Asia lacks oil resources. Therefore, if troops are stationed in Xingcheng, they will be able to cut off this supply line at the necessary critical moment, which is equivalent to strangling the opponent's neck!

Reagan and Old Boo looked at each other, something they had never thought of before.

It’s not that the two people, including the president’s think tank, are useless, but the system has determined that the president’s think tank will only consider matters during their term. After all, the new president will definitely have his own team after he takes office.

Therefore, Reagan's think tank is considering the dispute with Lao Maozi. As for the rabbit...that is a matter for the president later. Even if they want to care, it depends on whether the president is willing or not!

There is a high probability of total overthrow. No matter good or bad, we cannot live in the shadow of the previous one!

This is indeed very convincing.

But Sean knows that this is all nonsense. Rabbit will purchase a large amount of oil from Lao Maozi every year in the future.

Sean simply put out a series of his opinions, which actually made people in the President's Office look at Sean with admiration.

No wonder this guy can form the largest private armed force in the world. He really has a good understanding of the international situation. This is not at all the level that young people should be at.

In fact, Sean knows nothing about the international situation!

He knows it!

Of course, there is nothing wrong with the results obtained by extrapolating from the facts that have already occurred.

…

After a day off, the next day, the hearing started again because of Sean.

Sean became the first rich man to go to consecutive hearings!

Most of the other wealthy people went to the hearing because of issues such as monopoly, but Sean was the only one who went to the hearing because of fighting and killing people...

The host of the hearing talked for a while and then invited Sean to come up. He sat on the stage and looked at the dark group of congressmen below. Sean didn't know if it was his own imagination, but he felt that everyone's eyes were not too offensive.

sex.

Facing a wealthy man who controls a very large media company, any congressman must show enough respect.

If he doesn't want to be turned into a piece of shit during the election!

"Mr. Sean, may I ask, when there was a conflict with Malaya, have you considered the impact that such a conflict would have on the situation of the United States in Southeast Asia?" Representative Carlos Bellman looked at the notebook in his hand.

asked.

Sean took a deep look at Carlos Bellman. Reagan had previously revealed in private that it was this Donkey Party congressman who was most dissatisfied with Sean's behavior.

"I would like to ask, Mr. Carlos Bellman, Congressman, do you understand the situation in Southeast Asia? In other words, do you understand the Malays? Do you understand their status in ASEAN?" Sean smiled and stretched out his hand.

, "If you don't understand, then I think you may not understand what I said."

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and those who laughed loudly were all members of the Xiang Party.

Carlos Bellman's face turned red, "Of course I understand!"

"Okay, then tell me about the relationship between Malay and Indonesia, what are the conflicts of interest and what are the cooperations?"

"They are the same nation, and their territories are adjacent. They, well, they have no conflicts!" Carlos Bellman waved his arms and said stuttering.

Sean grinned and laughed, "Congressman Carlos Bellman, thank you, I haven't been so happy in a long time."

As soon as these words came out, Carlos Bellman immediately understood that he had made a mistake, and huge laughter erupted from the scene.

Sean's mouth is so damaging!

Many people inexplicably think of an old man living in New York.

"However, your answer is actually quite good. At least you know that the territories of the two countries are next to each other. This is much better than 99% of Americans. Many Americans support Iran, but they think that Iran is in North America and Asia is in

South America, New Mexico is foreign.”

“Three Mexican countries, right?”

"Well, who makes us the United States? Americans just need to know themselves!" Sean continued to joke.

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Malays and Indonesia have the same origin, the same culture, and the relationship between the two countries is very bad. There are constant conflicts over territory and foreign trade. The Indonesians hope that the Malays will die soon!"

"This is the reason why only the Malays were present and the Indonesians were completely invisible!"

"Yes, the Malays suffered a big loss, so the Xingcheng people were very happy. After all, it was the Malays who kicked them out. The Bangni people were also very happy, because their territory was divided by the Malays.

Two.”

"The Vietnamese also have a bad relationship with the Malays. The Vietnamese have always felt that they have strong military strength and should be the third largest military power in the world. Well, another third largest military power in the world!"

"As we all know, there are three third largest military powers in the world."

"It is undeniable that Malaysia is indeed the country with the strongest comprehensive strength in terms of economy, military, resources and population in Southeast Asia. Therefore, everyone has wanted to see him unhappy for a long time."

"Let me put it this way, Congressman Carlos Bellman, do you understand? The Malays have lost their prestige, which allows ASEAN countries to see a further way forward."

Carlos Bellman looked at Sean angrily. As a parliamentarian, he already had a lot of things to do with his own three-acre land. What does he know about Malay?

Stop making trouble, there is no intersection at all, why do you need to understand!

"But what you did severely offended the Malays, which will make them fall into the arms of the Soviets!"

Sean laughed again, "What a great joke. I think you are a bit humbled by being a congressman. You should go on a talk show. Before you say that the reputation of the United States will get worse, do you know which country Malay is from?"

Sphere of influence?”

Looking at Carlos who was speechless, Sean shook his head and smiled: "Obviously this is embarrassing for you. Let me tell you, in Southeast Asia, except for the Philippines and Vietnam, we do not have the United States, no power, and no allies.

.”

"Malaysia, Indonesia, Bangni, Xingcheng, these countries are the sphere of influence of the British. The weapons purchased by Malay are from Britain, France and Germany. The same is true for several other countries. They are not our American influence.

scope."

"Malaysia and Bangkok are rich in oil, and the seabed oil and gas resources are extremely rich, but the company developing the oil fields there is BP and the British-Dutch Shell."

"As for falling into the arms of the Soviets, well, if that's the case, I think our President will be very happy. But unfortunately, the Soviets obviously no longer have the ability to open up battlefields in Southeast Asia. In fact, in recent years, his foreign support has been very strong.

It’s gradually getting smaller.”

This topic was brought to an end. Sean didn't want to say more. He coughed lightly and continued: "The most important thing about the hearing is to resolve some questions. Let me talk about it. It is obvious that the congressmen are focusing more on the country. The rest

Part of it is also attributed to the Soviets, Europeans, Benzi, Bangzi and other developed countries, who don’t know much about Southeast Asia.”

"For similar things, you can look at the 1950s. After the start of the Cold War, the United States' attention was diverted by the Soviet Union. Japan took this opportunity to rise rapidly. Now, the same thing is that Southeast Asia has no war, a favorable environment, low labor costs, and a huge population base.

And other factors are also rising rapidly."

"But due to some objective reasons, our military base in the Philippines was dismantled many years ago, which turned American power into a vacuum in Southeast Asia, which is not good for the United States."

"After officially seeing this, I set my goal here. If I want to expand my power, the first is to break the original balance, and the second is to show my own strength. Well, everyone has seen the results!"

"At present, the military has no reason to station troops in Southeast Asia. This will cause hostility from the international community. We still have a big enemy. Therefore, Umbrella will become a pioneer to fill this gap and open up this market, bringing the influence of the United States in

Radiating to Southeast Asia.”

"First of all, I have proven that the power of American weapons can help us open up the arms market in Southeast Asia. Second, as for the oil industry, I personally think that the interests of this area are in the hands of the British rather than in the hands of the Americans.

This can complement the maintenance of the petrodollar."

"Other industries, such as machinery, chemicals, electronics, etc., are a huge market there. Southeast Asians are also Asians, and they are very rich!"

"The Strait of Malacca, an important maritime channel, must be under our control, just like Panama!"

"It may not bring much profit, but it allows us to take the initiative."

"Economically, militarily, and politically, my actions are beneficial to the United States. As long as you are an American, he should not oppose my plan."

"Okay, fellow congressmen, I've finished my words, do you have anything else to ask?" Sean spread his hands and looked at a congressman with a smile.

A group of congressmen looked at each other. If you have everything you need to know about politics, military and economics, then why are you still objecting?

I don’t know who was the first to applaud, but the applause was thunderous!
