Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 373 For real

Why did the government cabinet agree so readily?

It's very simple. The only area the transitional government can control is the capital. Outside the capital, not even an inch of land can be intervened by the transitional government. It is said to be the legal government of a country, but in fact, their exercise of power outside the capital is nothing.

Top shit.

What's even more incredible is that the entire government agency is extremely bloated, with numerous departments and confusing military ranks. It has the same number of government officials as an authentic high-level national government. In terms of salary, relying on the capital's tax revenue is simply not able to provide

, many times the salaries of officials are in arrears, or are partly aided by Western Europe.

Under such circumstances, giving Zhou Yuanqiang some fictitious power and authority is simply insignificant to the transitional government.

Ministry of National Defense? It’s a joke. Apart from the troops in the capital, the transitional government doesn’t even have a single soldier. What’s the country and what to defend? What’s more, the transitional government only has two toothless torpedo boats, and they are under the name of the capital’s troops.

, it will not be under the control of the Ministry of National Defense that is about to be formed. Without soldiers and soldiers, can it still be called the Ministry of National Defense?

So what if Zhou Yuanqiang is more capable? It would be better if the Ministry of National Defense is really established and the transitional government troops are built. The government also has a military force. It does not have to be like now, which can only huddle in the capital and rely on peacekeeping.

The troops defended themselves from being captured by Al-Shabaab.

As for the Ministry of Commerce, it is even more of a joke.

When the Ministry of Commerce was first established, it was established after seeing the establishment of the Steel Park. Otherwise, given Somalia's predicament, would there still be an economy? What kind of domestic and foreign trade is there? What countries have trade relations with Somalia? Just based on that

Ore exports and taxes can barely sustain the army's expenses, so why do we need to go to the Ministry of Commerce?

So it seems that Zhou Yuanqiang rose to the top and took control of the entire country's military machinery. In fact, this is not the case. He is simply a shadowy power that can be seen but cannot be touched.

What could be cheaper than using these things that are of no use to the transitional government to reach an understanding. Moreover, Zhou Yuanqiang also promised that he would provide the salary and welfare issues for the entire cabinet of the transitional government, which was naturally welcomed by all cabinet members.

, passing this motion is a matter of course.

God knows, some cabinet members have not been able to receive their basic salary for two months, let alone those subsidies.

The whole matter was solved unexpectedly with everyone's own thoughts.

However, the impact is still huge. First of all, Zhou Yuanqiang is a Chinese. He plays the third position in Somalia and is indeed the most powerful overseas Chinese. Some national media have already exclaimed that the mainland government is using this kind of curve.

way to achieve the purpose of controlling Aden's bent throat.

Several countries in Western Europe also sent strong condemnations to the president, believing that it was wrong for the transitional government to make such a decision without their consent.

However, there seems to be no strong reaction to the media reports in these countries. Because of the influence of Somalia, everyone understands that the transitional government cannot even leave the capital. Talking about controlling the north and controlling Aden in disguise is nothing more than making an international joke.

What's the same?

And don’t forget that there is a checkpoint in Malacca that prohibits the transportation of all arms.

The most important thing is, is the mainland really a fool? It is obvious that it will send a Chinese to control Somalia openly? Even if it is to control, they are supporting local people, so how can they send Chinese? Because this means that every move will be

If you can't escape the surveillance of other countries, how much can you do?

In addition, in just a few days, Zhou Yuanqiang's information appeared on the desk of the national intelligence department focusing on Somalia. Everything in the information proves that Zhou Yuanqiang is just a pure businessman.

If the only thing that is doubtful is that the origin of the wealth is unknown. There is nothing to doubt about this. Which capitalist in history did not build wealth on blood and darkness? The more unknown the origin of the wealth, the better it is.

As it accumulates, it becomes even darker.

As for the newly appointed Zhou Yuanqiang, the first thing he did was to stabilize all order in the steel park and restore the entire steel park to its previous state.

The second thing is to split the steel park and establish the Somali Steel Group, the Somali Trade Group, the Somali Military Industry Group, and the Somali Power Group. Although officials are not allowed to participate in business, these group companies in the name of the country,

Zhou Yuanqiang holds absolute equity in all of them.

Zhou Yuanqiang did not expect to monopolize the establishment of these four major groups. He released 20% of the shares and distributed them to powerful tribes and party leaders, making friends with the real underground controlling forces in Somalia. He tied them all up.

Get on your own chariot.

Don’t underestimate this 20% stake. You must know that the hundreds of millions of dollars Zhou Yuanqiang spent before and the mineral rights he purchased in large quantities are all owned by the Somali Steel Group. Even if it is only 1% of it, as long as it is developed, it will be a huge sum.

The astronomical numbers are absolutely eye-catching.

Even the other three major groups have not yet seen its value, but anyone with a brain knows that if they really follow Zhou Yuanqiang's blueprint, they will definitely dominate several major industries in Somalia. Such as trade

The group will monopolize all trading business in Somalia, not to mention the military-industrial group. It is simply the only designated weapons dealer by the government, so it can make a net profit without losing any money. And the power group is absolutely a golden chicken that lays eggs.

Of course, everything must be based on the reality of Zhou Yuanqiang's blueprint.

After successfully tying more than a dozen tribes in central Somalia onto chariots, Zhou Yuanqiang's status in Somalia has basically been recognized by the Somali people.

Zhou Yuanqiang also understood that although the Steel Park was split up and a large number of jobs were provided, it did not solve the problem. He had to produce some results to consolidate his position. Therefore, within half a month after taking office

, Zhou Yuanqiang officially announced the establishment of the Somali National High-tech Park in the southwest of the Steel Park to attract investment from all over the world.

The media, which had been paying attention to Zhou Yuanqiang, finally found something that could give them a boost.

"Somalia? High-tech?"

"An extremely stupid leap forward!"

"The whims of the Orientals."

A large number of media from various countries regard this as a joke. Somalia is a country that is not afraid of making other people laugh when it comes to high-tech. This is the poorest country in the world and the most chaotic country.

A country that relies on the livestock industry as its output value and has no industry at all to create high-tech?

Regardless of what others think, Zhou Yuanqiang officially launched the high-tech park, which is 95% funded by the Somali Steel Group and 5% funded by the government.

The planning of the entire high-tech park was designed by Zhou Yuanqiang with the help of the Doomsday Chamber of Commerce, analysis of successful cases, and the topography of the southwest area of ​​the steel park. Even if it is obtained, it is a first-class technology park design drawing internationally.

.

In order to further showcase everything in the high-tech park, Zhou Yuanqiang spent a huge amount of money to make a model of the entire science and technology park in Germany and placed it in Mogadishu Square, letting the world feel Zhou Yuanqiang's charm and determination.

There is no doubt that once the entire science and technology park is completed, it will definitely be the most modern construction area in Somalia.

Zhou Yuanqiang was not satisfied with this. He also launched an industrial park plan. After the entire industrial park plan is completed, the factories and enterprises surrounding the steel park will be moved in. It will be integrated into a complete industrial chain and serve as the core enterprises in the steel park.

The military industrial group provides peripheral manufacturing.

It can be said that no one is not stunned by the two construction plans proposed by Zhou Yuanqiang in a short period of time. Their efficiency and courage are definitely not comparable to those of the previous transitional governments.

No matter whether the plan is a tower in the sky or a mirror in the mirror, at least the Somali people finally saw a glimmer of hope. The entire capital and central region of Somalia were silent in jubilation. Because Zhou Yuanqiang promised that all this from construction to final completion will be

Providing more than 30,000 jobs will completely solve the unemployment problem in the entire capital.

As soon as the design plan was released, and with funds in place, the entire preliminary project of the science and technology park began to invite bids from countries around the world.

In order to win people's trust, Zhou Yuanqiang first set up a special account in Switzerland and deposited 2 billion US dollars of special funds into it. Now all companies have demonstrated their determination to build industrial parks and science and technology parks.

At the same time, it also sends a signal to them that Somalia is not short of money, which is enough to ensure that they can get the money after the project.

After the Swiss Bank confirmed the authenticity of the account, construction companies all over the world became excited. After analyzing the industrial parks and technology parks, they sent company personnel to form a bidding team. For them, even if they cannot eat meat,

Drinking some soup is also a considerable profit, which greatly increases the company's turnover.

Originally, it was not surprising that many industrial parks like this were established in major cities around the world.

But in Somalia, a country synonymous with poverty, coupled with the early armed demonstrations, it naturally attracted the attention of people around the world. It is this kind of attention that makes construction companies know that it is not just about making money, but also more

Yes, there will be free international advertising opportunities, and reporters will never let go of this kind of subject matter.

The plan for the two gardens has not yet started, but people in Somalia have begun to benefit.

First, there were flights to the capital. A large number of bidders made the few routes full. Then there was the hotel industry in Mogadishu, which experienced explosive growth, making every hotel owner laugh out loud. In addition,

One benefit is the tricycle business. What you earn in one day is money that you couldn't earn in a week before.

Not to mention, the shuttle bus from Mogadishu to the Steel Park was directly chartered and became almost a special bus.

Now people in the capital Mogadishu can truly feel the benefits of economic development. Their gratitude to Zhou Yuanqiang, a Chinese, naturally comes from the heart. People believe that under the leadership of Zhou Yuanqiang, the entire capital will definitely get better.

I also believe that he has the ability to bring about earth-shaking changes in the entire Somalia.

Of course, the US$2 billion spent on building two parks is an exaggeration, but Zhou Yuanqiang thinks it is worth it, because he will not lose money and can still make a fortune.

Just thinking about the origin of the 2 billion US dollars, Zhou Yuanqiang was really a little entangled, because it was mortgaged by Haili Investment Holding Company and borrowed from several major commercial banks in Shanghai. In order to recover this investment, indirectly,

Haili Investment Holding Company directly controls Somalia Steel Group.

For Zhou Yuanqiang, it was just a matter of changing his left hand for his right hand. There was nothing to lose. The key was to explain the source of the steel group's funds.

After such a big incident, it was impossible for Zhou Yuanqiang's identity to be concealed from Yan Yuhe and the others, so from the moment the two gardens accepted the bid, Yan Yuhe appeared in front of Zhou Yuanqiang with a group of people, covered in dust.

Yan Yuhe always thought that Zhou Yuanqiang was just doing some small business here, relying on small investments in minerals to make profits. But the acquisition of Haili made her suddenly realize that she didn't understand Zhou Yuanqiang at all. 3.5 billion US dollars,

But not everyone can get it, it is enough for him to join the ranks of the top 100 richest people in the world.

From the moment he left in a hurry without even attending his birthday, Yan Yuhe was still a little angry. No matter what, it was a birthday party right before his eyes. Didn't he even have a few hours to spare?

However, following the explosive news, Yan Yuhe, who had been paying attention to international developments, discovered that the center of everything was actually Zhou Yuanqiang, the steel park he had built. At that moment, Yan Yuhe understood that Zhou Yuanqiang could leave

There is a last resort reason for being in such a hurry.

After all the anger toward Zhou Yuanqiang disappeared, only endless concern remained.

A series of changes followed, leaving Yan Yuhe dumbfounded. The Minister of Defense of Somalia? The Minister of Commerce of Somalia? She already felt dizzy. Even though she was on good terms with Yu Zhenhua, Yu Zhenhua's father was only at the mayor level, and for the Yan family

, not really a close friend, but the object of his father’s fawning.

But she didn't expect that her boyfriend would become the Minister of Defense and Commerce. She felt that the world was really crazy.

"If these things hadn't happened, when were you going to tell me this?"

Yan Yuhe and Zhou Yuanqiang were walking in the steel park, looking at the factories here, with tens of thousands of workers, just like a city. Only then did she realize that what she thought was a small business actually had billions of fixed assets.

Yes, there is no doubt that every factory and machinery here comes from the Doomsday Chamber of Commerce. Many of them are heavy-duty factories. A single production line costs thousands or hundreds of millions of dollars internationally.

Hearing Yan Yuhe's angry look, Zhou Yuanqiang just smiled and said, "I originally wanted to give you a surprise, but now that others are making such a fuss, I can't hide it anymore."

Yan Yuhe blinked and said: "Are you really ready to revitalize Somalia? This is not a simple matter. You have to know that this is not something that can be done simply by having money. You hold the title of Minister of Defense, but

A polished commander."

Zhou Yuanqiang gave Yan Yuhe a reassuring look and said: "If you believe me, there is no need to doubt me. At first I was afraid that you wouldn't come, but now it's fine. With you, I can complete the project here."

Don’t worry, I’ll leave it to your company. Haha, the money won’t go to outsiders, and my future wife’s company is in arrears with the project payment, so I’m sure Uncle Yan won’t object.”

Yan Yuhe did not refute. She came here to prepare a bid to help Zhou Yuanqiang, but she was worried, "Are you sure that if these money are invested, companies will come in? In the case of Somalia, we can only rely on foreign companies, so you don't have to

Count on Somalia’s impoverished businesses.”

"Hehe, of course I have thought about it. I am counting on you and Uncle Yan. As long as you take the lead in settling in and recruit some partners from Shanghai, with a start, other companies will naturally follow. And the policies will be preferential at that time.

, plus I still have a few more tricks up my sleeve, I’m still afraid that they will crowd out my science and technology park.”

Regarding this, Zhou Yuanqiang has absolute confidence. He said: "You also know that the first thing that Somalia can develop is to restore the livestock industry. But in the areas controlled by the transitional government, it is simply impossible. But I think there will be a way by then.

Secondly, the road we need to take is definitely not an ordinary road, otherwise how many years of development will it take before we can see any improvement?"

Thinking about the livestock industry, the Somali trading group that he controls will become the only foreign trade company in the area controlled by the Somali transitional government. With the price of livestock in Somalia, as long as it is shipped to other developed countries, it will be a huge income.

.In one year, I can definitely earn hundreds of millions of dollars.

As for revitalizing these two parks, Zhou Yuanqiang actually thought about it seriously before finally investing. Otherwise, would the US$2 billion be really wasted? This is his own hard-earned money, and there is no need to really throw it here.

In fact, what really restricts the development of the two parks is not Somalia's geographical problem, but the unstable political situation. Outside the two parks is the sphere of influence of the "Al-Shabaab". They will not launch an attack now, but

When the two orchards were completed, it was time for them to harvest the fruits.

In the southwest, west, and north, there are several powerful warlords who are eyeing Mogadishu, ready to take advantage of Mogadishu. They don't mind the intervention of the United Nations at all, and they don't care about the attitude of the transitional government.

, let alone care about himself, the so-called Minister of Defense.

"Just, will they have a chance?"

A cold light flashed in Zhou Yuanqiang's eyes. The world has seen that he has financial resources. So, as the Minister of Defense, shouldn't he let them see his military power? After all, in Somalia, whoever has the biggest fist is the winner.

Boss, which one of them didn't start by relying on fists?

"July 1st is Somalia's National Day. It's not that far away. Shouldn't we do something?"
