Rebirth of England

Chapter 847 The Olympics are coming

Ordinary people only need to abide by the law, while the upper class has much more to consider...

In the "modern civilization" of European and American society, the "perfect" legal system provides sufficient protection for the wealthy class.

It can be said without hesitation that with the wealth and resources that Barron currently possesses, it can be guaranteed that even if he does evil and commits all kinds of evil, it will be difficult to be convicted.

Because those victims and witnesses will always find stains that can be exploited by the "luxury lawyer team", and then amplify the credibility of their testimony to be questioned.

Even if there is a "perfect victim", the media resources at his disposal can create stains on the other party.

Taking 10,000 steps back, there is a very small chance that he is really convicted. Then after paying the "bail" - well, I will give you a check and write the amount as you like - Barron can still leave the country where he is on trial. To a third country not subject to extradition provisions.

For example, in Barron's previous life in April 2017, Tiffany Lee, a wealthy second-generation Chinese-American from California, was accused of murdering her ex-boyfriend Keith Green, and was subsequently charged $35 million (approximately RMB 500 million at the time). He was released on bail pending trial for a huge amount of money.

This huge bail case, known as the highest in the history of the United States and the 10th largest in the world, caused a sensation.

Then on November 15, 2019, more than three years after the case, after 12 days of deliberation, the jury found that the murder and conspiracy charges were not established due to lack of evidence, and Tiffany Lee was acquitted...

Therefore, most of the time, whether you can be convicted is related to whether you can sign a high legal fee check.

Of course, this is also based on the situation faced by ordinary people. When conflicts occur between the upper classes, other rules need to be followed.

On July 27, the London Olympics is about to open.

This also means that after the celebrations to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Queen's accession to the throne, the most important work in London is the final preparations for this Olympic Games.

"Currently, the Four Seasons Cavendish Hotel Group has more than 50 hotels in the UK, one-third of which are located in Greater London. These hotels are ready to welcome tourists from around the world..."

In fact, the previous celebrations can also be seen as a "stress test" for London's hotel industry before the Olympics.

By the time the Olympics are held, London hotels will be packed with tourists from all over the world.

"Granger Real Estate Leasing Company will also cooperate with the Four Seasons Cavendish Hotel Group to use its properties to provide butler-style short-term apartment rental services to tourists after the hotel rooms are full..."

Since the subprime crisis, in order to solve the non-performing mortgage loans of banks under the Standard Chartered-Merrill Lynch Group, Cavendish Asset Management, a subsidiary of the Cavendish Trust Fund, has invested US$10 billion to acquire their assets from Standard Chartered Bank. Non-performing assets involving real estate mortgage loans after merging businesses such as Northrock Bank.

Later, they acquired Grainger, a company with rich experience in real estate leasing, to manage and rent the properties owned by Cavendish Asset Management through offline and online services.

After this business got on track, Cavendish Asset Management absorbed funds from Catherine Neville and Middle Eastern tycoons and sovereign funds, and subsequently continued to acquire properties involved in non-performing assets from the Bank of England - and now, it has Granger, which has been injected with assets from Cavendish Asset Management, has become a giant in the private housing rental sector in the UK.

They manage more than 100,000 apartments (flats), villas (houses) and office buildings, have stable revenue and cash flow, and then securitize their assets and income to maintain low-cost expansion...

It is also because of this situation that during the upcoming London Olympics, faced with the influx of tourists from all over the world and the fact that hotels throughout London will be full, Granger Company used the properties they hold spread across London to carry out Short-term rental services will also greatly alleviate this situation and bring short-term excess profits.

Of course, as the Olympic Games approach, security issues are getting more and more attention.

Last year, Wang Wanting conducted an investigation on G4S at the instruction of Barron, and the results were very unsatisfactory.

Other problems can be solved slowly. The most important problem is the Olympic security agreement signed between G4S and the London government, which promised to provide 10,000 security personnel for the London Olympics. However, they only trained 1,000 people at that time. If According to the progress, I am afraid that by the time of the London Olympics, the number of security personnel who can complete the training will not exceed 4,000, which is less than half of the contract requirements...

Moreover, the quality of the training provided by G4S Company to those security personnel does not meet the requirements.

Obviously, if, like Barron's previous life, G4S cannot fulfill its commitment to the London City Government before the opening of the Olympic Games, then they will inevitably not be trusted in future government-related order cooperation.

To this end, as the controlling shareholder of G4S, the Cavendish Trust directly reorganized their management. Reese Mesa, the former CEO of Protector Security Company, served as the person in charge of G4S's security project for the London Olympics. .

In order to fulfill its promise to London, G4S has increased the scale of security personnel training and hired a large number of Kolo Corps personnel from Kolo in the form of labor dispatch - this can not only reduce the training time required for relevant personnel, but also greatly reduce costs.

Because NATO will withdraw its troops from Afghanistan, a considerable number of Protector Military Service Company's local personnel will also be reduced in size, just in time for the security of the London Olympics.

Now there is a considerable consensus that 2012 will be the year for the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan...

With the breakdown of relations between the United States and Pakistan and between Pakistan and Afghanistan last year, this situation will further deteriorate after entering 2012, endangering the process of the West's withdrawal from Afghanistan and the stability of Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Since the 9/11 incident, the United States has launched the "war on terror", and Pakistan has been an important ally of the United States in the war on terror.

But since last year, the relationship between the two sides has cooled rapidly, even reaching a hostile situation.

The reason is not only that the United States entered Pakistan to kill Bin Laden - this action was not notified to Pakistan in advance and was regarded as an invasion of Pakistan, but also that anti-American organizations launched attacks on the US Embassy, ​​NATO headquarters and other buildings in Pakistan, which was considered by the United States to be supported by Pakistani intelligence agencies, and NATO bombed the Pakistani border many times...

In the end, the Pakistani military ordered to treat the United States as an enemy and attack any aircraft that invaded its airspace.

This greatly affected the US military operations in Afghanistan - after all, Pakistan is adjacent to Afghanistan, and Al-Qaeda can easily move to the nearby Pakistani mountains when it is attacked, and the United States will no longer receive help from Pakistan.

If the United States and NATO enter Pakistan again to attack Al-Qaeda, I am afraid that Pakistan will no longer show mercy...
