Chapter two hundred and eighteen waves
While Du Le was focusing on improving the structure of Longteng Company, the kidnapping incidents on the island country continued to escalate.
The day after the kidnapping, a video suddenly appeared on the Internet. The video showed several masked men with guns pointing guns at the hostages kneeling on the ground in three rows.
Then, a man with a beard covering his face and wearing sunglasses appeared on the video screen. He was seen holding a piece of white paper, walking in front of the hostages, then facing the camera, and said seriously: "On behalf of my love, I
Life, the people of the island country who love their motherland, declare to the world: Sharif, the current president of the island country, is actually a despicable and shameless politician with no moral bottom line. In order to ascend to the position of president, Sharif even did not hesitate to set up a trap
The former president asked him to step down. Sharif is an illegitimate president!
In order for the world to see his face clearly, we have to take extreme measures, hoping that the international community will pay attention.
These hostages are all tourists who support the Sharif government. We have tried to persuade them, but they have not listened.
Therefore, we decided that unless Sharif stepped down and paid each hostage a protection fee of 1 million US dollars.
Otherwise, these hostages will never be able to return home."
The man in sunglasses finished reading the declaration, and then asked the hostages to introduce themselves one after another.
The entire video lasted about 10 minutes, but these ten minutes caused great repercussions around the world like a time bomb. The identity of the hostages and the announcement of the robbers also completely detonated people around the world's response.
The concerns and speculations of island countries.
At the presidential palace of the island country, Sharif and his staff who were summoned at short notice watched the content of the video together.
Sharif's face became increasingly ugly, and he wished he could eliminate this video completely. No matter whether the man in sunglasses was talking nonsense or not, the spread of this video has made people all over the world have opinions about the island country and himself. Said
Maybe his presidential career will be over.
"What is the most effective way to minimize the influence?" Sharif couldn't help but feel angry as he looked at the way his staff shook their heads. At this critical moment, Sharif found that he had no real confidants around him who could help him.
He completely relieved his worries. Thinking of his son-in-law Qin Xiang's behavior, it seemed that it had nothing to do with him. After saying some words of help yesterday, he never made any other move.
After Sharif became president, he consciously believed that his social status had been greatly improved.
However, Sharif felt that Qin Xiang had changed since he came back from abroad. The most obvious thing was that he treated his father-in-law with some distance and not as respectful as before.
Of course, Sharif is not resenting Qin Xiang, but he feels a little helpless at this time. He hopes that Qin Xiang will be by his side even if there is no other way to help him tide over difficulties at any time. A son-in-law and a half
A son, that's what it means.
"We should hold a press conference and issue our statement to set the record straight!" a staff member stood up and said, "This government is completely elected by the people. These pirates said this to divert the world's attention and slander us.
in the name of mitigating their guilt.”
"I think their purpose is just for money. Let's pay the ransom to them quickly, and then we will slowly investigate and find these gangsters later," said another staff member.
"Will paying the ransom completely solve the problem? Their fundamental purpose is to get me, the president, to step down!" Sharif was very angry at the ramble of these aides who failed to explain the key points of the problem.
"We can contact them and negotiate!"
"But we don't know where they are and we can't contact them."
Seeing Sharif's sudden anger, several staff members panicked and immediately expressed some mixed opinions.
Some said that part of the video showing pirates setting fire to a coastal hotel was shown at a press conference to arouse sympathy from the international community;
Some people say that broadcasting the footage of all police stations in the island country being mobilized will let the world know how the situation is developing and let the world know that justice is directed towards the Sharif government.
Others said that they might as well broadcast the footage of the president seriously attending meetings and studying, to prove that the president is not inactive, but is working very hard and effectively.
No matter what these people said, Sharif felt even more irritated when he heard it. Because they did not see the core of the problem clearly, and the suggestions they made were completely unable to effectively remove the troubles in his mind. Even he had told
They, the real purpose of the gangsters, they didn't listen at all.
This group of temporarily summoned staff are actually professors from the only university in the island country or scholars from the Institute of Policy Studies, but Sharif is not satisfied with the method they come up with. If he hadn't been in urgent need of someone to help him now,
He wanted to get rid of all the think tanks who were responsible for resolving this crisis!
In fact, the actions and content of the video released by the gangsters seemed to Sharif that the most fundamental purpose of these gangsters was to force Sharif to step down. Therefore, he must suppress this vicious intention in a timely and effective manner in order to save his situation.
.
However, the methods provided by these people all have one thing in common, which is to hold a press conference immediately to rebut the kidnapper's remarks.
Sharif sighed. He was originally just the village chief of a small island, but being able to become the president of an island country was already beyond his ability. Many times, it was difficult for him to deal with the problems that he needed to deal with, but it was more or less difficult for him to deal with them.
It really left him a little helpless.
But now, even he can see that no matter how many press conferences they hold, if the gangsters come out with one more video, the entire Sharif government can be disgraced. Even if Sharif does what he does at the press conference
If you make a promise, it may be broken by gangsters, which will immediately make Sharif a liar. This will not only make the people question Sharif's ability to govern, but also make the whole world lose confidence in the island government.
In this way, let alone wanting to have investors like Du Le to develop the island country in the future, because the next second he will have to face the fate of being pulled to take responsibility for resolving the crisis and being forced to step down immediately.
Therefore, if there is no better way and a press conference must be held, Sharif will not attend the press conference.
Sharif believes that regardless of whether the kidnapping case involves locals or foreigners, since it is a criminal case that occurs on the territory of the island country, it should fall under the jurisdiction of the island country’s police station. Those attending the press conference can only be the island country’s police department.
Minister of Police.
Therefore, even if the police minister of the island country comes out to respond at a press conference, the police minister only needs to take full responsibility.
The devastated police minister of the island country did not know that he had become a target that Sharif was planning to push to the front.
Although Du Le is far away in China, he is always paying attention to the news of the island country. However, after waiting and waiting for many days, Du Le has not received any information from Qin Xiang.
Du Le was wondering whether Qin Xiang could really solve this matter, and whether he would be confused if he cared about it. Thinking of this, Du Le thought about purchasing satellites again.
After the last kidnapping case of Qin Xiang, Du Le always had Sharif's phone number.
Since Qin Xiang didn't want to rely on him or had any ideas, Du Le simply didn't bother Qin Xiang and observed what he did for the time being.
Sharif had just made a decision at the meeting when he received a call from an unknown phone number. After hesitating for a moment, Sharif picked up the phone.
Sharif didn't react to the voice on the phone for a moment, but a few seconds later, he was surprised and delighted! Sharif quickly greeted excitedly: "Hello, sir!"
The staff and aides of the President's Office in the conference room were surprised to see Sharif suddenly become respectful. They secretly guessed who the call came from. How could the President, who was furious one second ago, be next to him?
It changed in seconds.
Suddenly, Sharif's eyes changed. He held down the phone and said to the people in the conference room: "You all go out first."
After the conference room was cleared, Sharif turned to his mobile phone and slowly talked about the progress of the kidnapping case in the island country.
Du Le did not expect that the island country's government would be under such great pressure now. If it cannot be resolved properly, it may affect Sharif's presidential position.
What puzzled Du Le the most was that Qin Xiang's behavior during the incident seemed a little too indifferent. This made Du Le very dissatisfied.
You must know that the reason why Du Le agreed to let Top Technology support Sharif in coming to power was so that the island government would side with Top Technology and so that Top Technology could develop in a relatively stable environment.
"I know about your matter. I will always pay attention to the development of the incident. You don't have to worry too much about the pressure from other countries. As long as you can handle the people in the country and get the people to support you, that's it." Du Le said.
Hearing this, Sharif felt as if he had taken a big reassurance and felt reassured. Ever since he knew that Du Le was behind the top technology, he had great confidence in Du Le.
"I have something I want you to do."
"What's up?"
"I want you to help me buy two communication satellites." Du Le said.
"Buy communications satellites?" Sharif asked uncertainly.
"Yes, no matter which country you buy from, I hope you can buy it as quickly as possible. I will give you a budget of 300 million US dollars. After excluding the cost of paying for the satellite, the remaining money is your hard work."
Du Le replied.
Sharif exclaimed, "Three hundred million?!"
No wonder Sharif was surprised. This was the first time he heard of such a large amount. You know, the island country's annual fiscal revenue is even less than 10 million US dollars.
"How much does a satellite cost approximately?" Sharif couldn't help but ask.
Du Le told Sharif the information he had found: "An ordinary communication satellite costs about 100 million US dollars, and some countries even cost less than 80 million US dollars. However, my request is to arrive as soon as possible. So, you
Through the island country’s government, increase the purchase price to see if we can purchase spot satellites.”
"Okay. I will send someone to contact you soon and let you know as soon as possible. Do you have any other requirements?" Sharif asked.
Du Le thought for a while, and based on Zhinao's reminder, he ordered Sharif to purchase some additional parts as accessories for improving the satellite.
As Sharif and Dule spoke on the phone, governments around the world began to respond to the kidnappings in the island nation.
The Prime Minister of country R was the first to make a statement, believing that the current government of the island country is unpopular and is the culprit of this kidnapping case.
The spokesperson of the White House of Country M asked the island country's government to handle the kidnapping case carefully and protect the citizens of Country M.
Other countries have also issued warnings, telling their citizens not to travel to the island country until the situation stabilizes.
Garry Island, one of the islands affiliated with the main island of the island country, is the second largest island of the island country, with a population of about 10,000.
Gary Island, a police officer, was hiding in the police station and making phone calls in a panic.
Boom! A loud noise shattered the glass windows of the police station.
Pirates are attacking Galli Island!
Two ships from the coast guard of the island country rushed over immediately after receiving the news.
The police on Garry Island witnessed with their own eyes two of their own gunboats sank in the waters of Garry Island under the bombardment of a larger warship. Afterwards, the invading enemy fled away.
After Sharif got the news, he felt frightened.
You must know that the island country has always been a small country, so it has never developed a navy. The largest warships it has and its main maritime power are more than a dozen gunboats, and most of the rest are armed patrol boats. He has never heard of any
A group of pirates actually owned such a large "warship." If he hadn't heard the reports from his men, Sharif would have even thought that a certain country was trying to invade the island country.
The shelling incident on Garry Island resulted in the death of 12 people and serious injuries to 8 people in the island country. Suddenly, the situation in the island country suddenly became tense.
The spokesperson of the President of Country M once again emphasized that the citizens of Country M currently in the island country are required to leave the island country, and revealed that if the government of the island country cannot save the citizens of Country M, the government of Country M will send its navy to personally rescue its own citizens.
As a sovereign country, the government of the island country naturally disagreed and immediately issued a statement stating that the island country refused to allow any country's military to enter their territory.
However, Country M did not pay attention to the remarks of the island country. A fleet of the navy of Country M, stationed at a base in the Pacific and closest to the island country, continued to sail towards the island country after receiving the order.
At this time, the kidnapping incident in the island country has become more complicated.
No one can stop Country M’s actions because the status of the island country is not a critical one. Under normal circumstances, no country will speak for the island country.
However, the island country has a company that attracts worldwide attention, and that is a top technology company.
China and Russia quickly spoke at the United Nations, emphasizing that country M cannot interfere in the internal affairs of other countries at will and that all actions must be carried out within the framework of the United Nations.
China, in particular, supported the statement made by the representative of the island country to the United Nations at the United Nations General Assembly: "We cannot compromise with criminals."
The so-called anti-Japanese armed forces are actually a group of pirates with "powerful" force. They do all kinds of evil, including burning, killing and looting, and they dare not show their faces.
Not only that, but he also retorted that no country would compromise with pirates.
Representatives of country M immediately questioned the island country's government's ability to resolve the incident, believing that they should intervene and be responsible for resolving their people.
It must be said that it is obviously not an easy task for island countries to seek support from the United Nations.
Sharif could no longer endure Qin Xiang's inaction and immediately went to find Qin Xiang.
"Father-in-law, why are you here?" Qin Xiang was sitting in the office of the president of Top Technology and said when he saw Sharif pushing in the door.
"So what? Why don't you care at all when things have become so serious?" Sharif asked.
"I'm not paying attention! It's just that I'm not an official in the island country's government, I'm just the president of a company, and I have to be responsible for the company." Qin Xiang stood up and said loudly.
Sharif's expression became increasingly ugly, and he said, "Don't you think there is no relationship between us? Without my support, would your position as president be so secure?"
When Qin Xiang heard this, his expression also changed and he said, "Don't think that just because you are the president, I should listen to you. You have to understand that I spent money to help you build momentum and open the way for you!"
After Qin Xiang finished speaking, he sat back on his chair and inadvertently saw another document on the table. Qin Xiang suddenly got angry and swept everything on the table to the ground.
When Sharif saw Qin Xiang suddenly going crazy, he was a little puzzled and quickly closed the office door.
"What happened?" Sharif asked in a soft voice.
Qin Xiang had no way to explain, and he didn't know what kind of mentality he was in. Because he discovered something very important, which made him doubt something. The report on the table just now was nothing else, it was about
Du Le's investigation report. In the conclusion of the investigation report, Du Le was just an ordinary person.
However, this alone was enough to dissipate Qin Xiang's awe.
Although Qin Xiang still has no answers to some things, what Qin Xiang can be sure of is that Du Le is an ordinary person like him.
It is undeniable that people's hearts can change. A small person can easily surrender to a strong person. However, when a person grows to be strong enough, he will not be willing to surrender to someone with lower abilities than him.
.
If Qin Xiang had some ulterior motives and transferred the money from the company's account in the name of the company's trade, Du Le would have no way to recover it.
"It's okay." Qin Xiang took a deep breath and said. No matter what, Sharif is his father-in-law.
At this time, the office door rang.
"Come in." Qin Xiang said as he sorted out the documents he had just messed up to calm down.
The head of the Finance Department came in and saw Sharif and asked quickly: "Hello, Your Excellency, President."
Sharif nodded, indicating that he heard.
Qin Xiang said impatiently: "What's the matter?"
"$500 million suddenly disappeared from the company's account. I want to confirm whether the president has any other plans?"
Qin Xiang was shocked when he heard this: "What's going on? Go check it out quickly!"
"I think it's better not to give it up." Sharif said at the side, "I may know where the money went." (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
