From arms dealer to king of war

Qiao Liang strolled on the beach below the mansion in Santorini. In addition to a few bodyguards, there were also a group of Greek politicians...

The youngest among them is the current Greek Prime Minister Tsipras!

Tsipras, who was born in 1974, as a representative of the Greek left-wing Radical Party, has always been a bit deviant.

In 2009, he threatened the European Union to default on its debts, and then launched demonstrations from 2009 to 2014 to oppose the Greek government's tight policy, which gained him huge support within Greece. In 2015, this guy successfully became the president.

But soon this guy was taught a lesson by Germany, France, and the European Union.

By the time he took over the mess, Greece's GDP had dropped rapidly to 75% of the level of Greece 20 years ago. It's a bit too much to say that it was hard to survive, but it was true that the people's lives were difficult to live by.

Faced with the dilemma, this guy reluctantly bowed his head to the EU.

For aid, he accepted very tough bailout conditions from the EU and international creditors.

After a series of hard negotiations by Tsipras, who was welcomed by the public, in the end the whole of Greece had to tighten its belt, reduce expenditures and raise taxes in an effort to pay off its debts.

If it weren't for the 16-year-old mother who helped them along the way to promote 1D, Greece would have no hope of paying off its debt this year.

This was Qiao Liang's first exposure to national-level business, investing in an island covering an area of ​​nearly 9,000 square kilometers.

At first, Qiao Liang was a little nervous when facing the active presidents of developed European countries, but after getting to know them more, he discovered that these politicians were actually ordinary people.

Tsipras's political ability is not bad, but in the two years since he took office, apart from continuously reducing expenditures and getting a good meal in China, he has basically failed to fulfill other promised things.

Qiao Liang likes Tsipras very much because he has an interesting personality and can speak well. Moreover, after being tortured by Greece's sluggish economy for two years, Tsipras has been very active in cooperating with P.B.

Since Qiao Liang came to Santorini, Tsipras has been coming here almost every other week.

Looking at Qiao Liang who was in a very good mood, Tsipras said with a smile: "Liang, you look very happy. This is not the mood you should be in after your wife leaves..."

Qiao Liang spread his hands and said with a smile: "If there are a dozen princesses hanging around where you live every day, you will understand that this is not a good experience.

I'm so tired of the way those so-called royal butlers look at me..."

When Tsipras heard this, he laughed loudly and said: "Liang, you must know that the things you have experienced are what many people only dream of!

Those 16 princesses spent more money in Santorini than the income here in the past year.

You should invite them to stay longer, their wallets could save the island. "

Qiao Liang smiled and shook his head and said: "Tomorrow the movie 'Saving Princess Emina' will be released, they need to avoid it, otherwise these rich girls may not be able to come out again after they go back.

My wife’s travel company needs them even more! "

Tsipras looked at Qiao Liang's young profile, shook his head and sighed, "Liang, you and Tong are the most amazing couple I have ever seen.

Tong is the happiest person I have seen since 2009. Originally, we Greeks should be so happy too...

We have a long civilization, we have beautiful scenery, and we should live happily here...

But the damn financial crisis messed everything up! "

Qiao Liang looked at Tsipras who was trying to find every opportunity to cry about poverty, and he said funnyly: "Brother, let me remind you, what you are going through is a debt crisis...

Borrowing money to enjoy life is not a good habit! "

Tsipras didn't mind Qiao Liang's sarcasm. He said nonchalantly: "Our last few debts will be paid off soon. By then, as long as the development of Crete goes smoothly, we will definitely be able to recreate the happy life we ​​once had." .”

Qiao Liang slowly walked to the dock, looked at the quiet bay in front of him, and said: "It's not that simple!

If you can't give 100% effort, you can't impress my brother!

My brother has already known about your misappropriation of Crete Development Bond funds to repay debts. What's more serious is that besides the chickens, there are others who are eyeing you.

Next month will be the day when the first batch of bonds is paid. What are you going to do?

Do you think the new creditors will be easier to talk to than the old bondholders?

Bank P·B relied on its credibility to lower the interest rate on Cretan bonds to 3.5%.

Now you are using funds that should have been used for infrastructure in Crete to pay off debts.

If Greece cannot give my brother a satisfactory answer, the so-called happiness you just mentioned will cease to exist! "

As Qiao Liang looked at Tsipras who looked extremely embarrassed, he smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, things are not at their worst yet.

My brother will not take away your valuable things like those financial institutions, because he is used to win-win cooperation, and he likes to make profits through construction...

But man, the credibility you are showing is terrible!

I don’t ask you what you were thinking at the time. What you need to consider now is how to make up for the huge losses that P·B is about to face...

Oh, not just us, but also Albert II who also invested money...

Every day that construction in Crete is delayed is a huge loss for us!

You have to think about why those people are forcing you to repay your debts at this time, and why was the news that you misappropriated construction funds leaked? "

After hearing this, Tsipras glared at a fat middle-aged bald man next to him, then looked at Qiao Liang with a sigh and said, "Liang, can you stop talking about these unhappy things?

I know there are problems with our approach, but I guarantee that our cooperation with P·B will be absolutely unreserved. The whole of Greece is proud of the hero Jackal. "

Qiao Liang was amused by Tsipras's remarks. He smiled and said, "It's useless for you to play tricks on me. I'm not responsible for the management of P·B Bank."

Tsipras sighed helplessly and said: "Liang, although we have not known each other for a long time, I have always felt that you are my good friend.

Help me, the Greek economy can't stand the trouble anymore!

Our actual unemployment rate this year has exceeded 21%, and if the bonds default, our situation will get worse and worse.

Jackal is also a citizen of Greece. As long as the conditions he proposes are not too harsh, I will find a way to get them passed by the Parliament! "

Qiao Liang listened and said with a smile: "Man, keep your current attitude when talking to my brother. I think you might still have hope..."

When Tsipras heard that there was something going on, he walked to Qiao Liang and said, "Liang, your brother..."

Qiao Liang waved his hand to stop what Tsipras said next. He pointed to the sea and said with a smile: "We have guests..."

Tsipras frowned and looked at the sea, and found that a yacht and two escorting speedboats were coming. He asked curiously: "Who is coming?"

Next to Qiao Liang’s bodyguard, the Frenchman ‘One Eye’ whistled and said: “They are from the French Secret Service, and there is also a team of GIGN to assist...

Wow, the President of France is here, and their warships must be parked nearby. "

As he spoke, 'One Eye' looked at the few guys around him and said with a smile: "Guys, here are your old colleagues. Cheer up. You have to let them know that retiring and joining the 'Iron Wall Mercenary Group' is a good idea." A good choice…”

When Tsipras heard this, he looked at Qiao Liang in disbelief and said, "What is Brother Ma doing here? Why didn't I receive the notification?"

Qiao Liang shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother Xiao Ma came as a private guest at the invitation of my brother.

Today they have a private meeting and tomorrow he will go to the premiere of 'Saving Princess Emina' with my brother.

I don't know why France didn't notify you. Maybe your telephone operator was on holiday. "

When Qiao Liang was talking, the yacht on the sea suddenly slowed down, and soon a larger yacht caught up...

Tsipras looked at the newly appeared yacht and said with wide eyes: "Albert II is also here..."

Qiao Liang glanced at Tsipras and said with a smile as he walked towards the dock: "Albert II invested more than 80 million in Crete in the early stage. You'd better be polite to him later. Guys are not easy to talk to.”

Tsipras quickly caught up with Qiao Liang and said, "Who else will come?"

Qiao Liang spread his hands and said: "As far as I know, there are also Prince Al Thani of Qatar, Prince Tahnooni of the United Arab Emirates, and Prince Harmandan and Said of Dubai.

They are all big buyers of Cretan bonds, and now someone is shorting the bonds in the market, which makes them doubt the Cretan project. "

"oh my god!"

When Tsipras heard that they were all Greek creditors, he nervously wiped the sweat from his forehead and followed Qiao Liang towards the end of the pier. He said in a self-consoling tone: "They are all here to watch a movie. ?”

Choga looked at the frightened Tsipras and said with a smile: "Just take it as such..."

In fact, Tsipras is also the prime minister of a country, so there is no need to be so nervous. However, Greece's ranking among the top five in Europe has greatly reduced his reputation as a prime minister.

Can you imagine the prime minister of a developed European country asking a young man in his twenties to report every week?

The Greek government is so poor that even when arranging a hotel for the prime minister, it has to compare hotel discounts. Compared with those Middle Eastern princes who exude the aura of tycoons, especially since these princes are still creditors, Tsipras cannot help but feel nervous about this situation... …

When Tsipras made an urgent call to arrange security work on Santorini, a Dolphin helicopter and a super luxurious Azimut yacht appeared on the crescent of Santorini at the same time. In the bay...

The helicopter flew directly to the lawn of the mansion and landed...

Watching Greece's largest creditor, the Wall Street female shark Gami, and a woman holding a child get off the plane...

Tsipras wiped his hands vigorously on his trousers, looked at Qiao Liang and said, "It's just a movie, there's no need to be so exaggerated, right?

Isn’t Miss Copco supposed to be very busy? "

Qiao Liang looked at Tsipras, who was already sweating on his head, and said with a smile: "The business in Crete is about to lose money, how can Sister Gami not come as my brother's partner?

Don't worry, they don't eat people! "

Tsipras listened and said with a dry smile: "Is there anyone else?

I need to call to arrange the security work on the island, so nothing happens to them..."

Qiao Liang looked at a beautiful white trimaran ship appearing on the sea in the distance. He smiled and said: "Don't worry, let your part-time bodyguards take a rest...

P·B is professional in this regard! "
