Chapter 831 Presidential Invitation
The two became twenty-one, and the ticket became a charter flight. A few hours later, the plane headed for the mysterious and rich Africa.
However, not long after taking off, a beautiful stewardess came to ask for instructions on her knees: "The air traffic control of Fusoya has just received news, hoping that Mr. Bramble and Master Hirata will stop in the capital of Fusoya first, and their president, His Excellency Magari, wants to receive you." ”
Hirata Kang was a little confused: "Your Excellency the President?" Could it be that Africa is so magical that the gentlemen who eat, drink, prostitute and gamble can be treated as state guests?
Jing Jian was not surprised, and instructed the flight attendant: "Then the troublesome captain will stop in the capital of Fusoya first." I would like to send another letter to the Fusoya side: We will be honored to accept the invitation. ”
This is actually reasonable. Imagine that if a famous foreign entrepreneur visits China, he will basically be received by the country's leaders. Not to mention that in a poor African country like Fusoya, there are very few foreign leaders or entrepreneurs who go there, maybe not a few a year, so it's no wonder they attach so much importance to it.
The flight attendant walked to the cockpit with a graceful back, and Jing Jian joked to Yasu Hirata: "Hirata-kun, don't be surprised, don't forget that you are already a big man and an outstanding young man in Japan." Eligible to be received by the Presidents of small African States. ”
"Oh?" Hirata Yasu immediately became energetic, obviously taking it seriously, "yes! Haha! Then I have to perform well and work hard!"
"Try!", "Come on!......
......
Yasuya Hirata's group of fox friends also became elated. However, Japan's national character is more group-oriented, attaches more importance to collective honor, and is also very good-looking. So stimulated by the "good news" that increased their face, Yasu Hirata soon entered the depraved carnival mode again. However, some time ago, I may have played too crazy, and the flight was relatively boring, and it didn't take long for Yasushi Hirata to fall asleep one after another in the "buzzing" sound of the engine.
In fact, among the nineteen people in Yasuna Hirata, there are only eleven real fox friends and female companions, and the other eight are all nannies composed of followers, bodyguards, etc., and even an accompanying chef.
And in the nanny group, there is actually an old acquaintance of Jing Jian, Lai Guangwenlang. Jing Jian called Lai Guangwenlang to his side, ready to say a few words of greeting, and pass the boredom of the journey, but to Jing Jian's surprise, Lai Guangwenlang had already collected a lot of information about Fu Soya.
“...... Sorry, Mr. Bramble. Due to the rush of my arrival, I only asked my friends from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and my colleagues in charge of African affairs at the company. Since Ferzoya is not the focus of African affairs, the information gathered is incomplete. ”
Even if he had a bad feeling for the book in his previous life, Jing Jian at this time was still secretly admiring, and he had to admit that in the few hours he rushed to Paris, Lai Guang Wenlang was able to obtain detailed information, and the efficiency of the Japanese consortium in this era was indeed very high.
Of course, domestic companies can't do that. Japan is a consortium disguised as a state, and it is only natural that the consortium uses the public instruments of the state to serve itself. And even if a Chinese company is a state-owned enterprise, it can't command the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to serve itself, right?
After taking the information, Jing Jian thanked him, and then slowly flipped through it. There is nothing wrong with some English materials, but some Japanese materials need to be explained by Lai Guang Fumiro next to him.
Fosoya is located in Central Africa, that is, in the sub-Saharan region, and in the international community, the term has become almost synonymous with poverty and backwardness. The country covers an area of 345087 square kilometers and has a total population of 18.6 million. And the per capita GDP is only a measly $187, not even $200.
The largest city in Fosoya is the capital Bilosi, which is home to nearly 20% of the country's population and a population of more than 3 million. And the second largest city is Heilan City, which is also a big city with more than one million. And the wealth and economy of the whole country are basically concentrated in these two cities. And in addition to a railway connecting the two major cities, only these two cities have an international airport. Of course, by international standards, these two international airports are only small regional airports on the third line.
However, the ethnicity, religion, and other social conditions of Fusoya are quite complicated, and it is impossible to accurately divide them, and it may be the same ethnic group but different tribes, hostile to each other, or different ethnic groups but the same tribe, living together in harmony. Moreover, the internal division of Fusoya is quite serious, the degree of centralization is very low, and the local area is basically a warlord force with tribes as the main body.
"Oh, President Margari is not a representative of the Great Tribe?" Jing Jian suddenly discovered something strange from the information.
"That's right, sir. Lai Guangwenlang explained with a smile, "After the overthrow of the former president, the major forces in Fusoya are fighting for domestic power, and they are at loggerheads with each other. His Excellency Margari grew up in the United States and graduated from American universities, with the support of European and American countries, especially the United States. He and his wife were both from the two most powerful tribes in Fusoya, and they were well-known democratic liberals, who were well-known in Fusoya, advocating the concept of elite consultation and governance, and it was relatively easy to get the support of various factions. ”
Jing Jian nodded thoughtfully, thinking in his heart: "It turns out that this President Margari is the product of compromise. The symbolism is relatively large, and the rights themselves are not very much. Of course, because he was elected and recognized by the international community, he is nominally the supreme leader of Fusoya. And there is still no small right to go through your own tribe. ”
So Jing Jian asked Lai Guangwenlang: "So which side does Heilan City belong to? Does it belong to President Margary?"
Hearing the situation of warlords, Jing Jian felt that Fu Soya was eating jujube pills. It is no wonder that after the discovery of the coastal oil fields in the previous life, the whole country of Fusoya would be a mess and the war would continue. However, Jing Jian is not interested in being a savior, no matter what his future holds, as long as he can protect his rights and interests in Heilan City!
"The situation in the capital, Bilosi and the city of Heran, is more special. The power of the government was relatively large, and no tribe had a monopoly on the two cities. It can only be said that there are various forces in the vicinity in charge, and the situation is more complicated. ”
"So President Magari has some influence?"
"It can be understood, but the expectations should not be too high. Especially in the city of Heilan. Lai Guangwenlang smiled and nodded, "Your Excellency Magari's order has an effect in Heilan City, but it may not be as effective as the local mayor. After all, the mayor of Heran was able to get the support of nearby tribal forces. ”
"Oh, thank you!" Jing Jian nodded, it turned out to be the African version of the regime coming out of the barrel of a gun.
"It's a pleasure to help you. ”
