With the advent of AFP correspondents Pierre and Jeanne, the tide turned abruptly.

Regarding the question of "how murderous the slave lords were", in fact, there is nothing to disagree about between the two sides, and everyone is mentally prepared. The main disagreement at today's press conference was the question of whether Banda Yuno and Yusuf, among other fisherman lords on Indonesia's eastern border, had a bad track record as pirates.

In particular, "after the extermination of their impromptu pirate detachment, whether the slave lords have the force and history to launch a second retaliation" will determine whether Gu Kun's counterattack is excessive and whether it is an "imaginary defense after the fact".

It would have been quite difficult for Tang Jia to prove these problems, but with AFP reporters who have been undercover for two years and collected in detail, the situation is completely different.

Pierre took the stage with a look of righteous indignation, and began his performance with the issue of piracy as a starting point.

"Based on the more than two years of incubation I have had with Mademoiselle Jeanne, I can responsibly say that the ferocity of the fisherslave lords in their cameo appearance as pirates, and the probability of insisting on revenge, are extremely high.

In 1998, a Thai cargo ship heading to Australia to buy iron ore was attacked twice by the Banda Yuno fisherman group near the East Malu Valley Islands when it passed through the Banda Sea Islands.

Although I did not personally witness the attack, I witnessed the pirates returning from two defeats and one victory on East Maluku Island, as well as the property they plundered and the hostages they captured. It was only because I heard that the financial crisis in Southeast Asia continued to ferment and the industrial decline of Southeast Asian countries, so the trade demand for importing iron ore and other industrial raw materials from Australia was almost zero, so there were not many opportunities for Banda Yuno to do it......"

Pierre burst into tears, and each of them had ironclad photographs or audio recordings, and he could also bring slaves to testify, which fully exaggerated the danger of those slave lords, and proved that "if you don't end their lair, it is entirely possible that they will be repeatedly attacked when passing through the relevant waters", so that the act of "mending the knife" is 100% justified in international law.

"Damn, what else can I say about this beast? Of course, we must seize the opportunity and die. Otherwise, wouldn't it be only Gusu Murong who could accurately grasp the scale of 'legitimate defense'. This is a typical whisper of an Asian journalist and someone familiar with the Chinese cultural circle.

"If all this evidence can be cross-examined, then the danger of this scum can be compared to that of Somalia. The reason why the number of evils is so low and not so heinous is simply because it is not as busy as Somalia. Somalia is the mouth of the Red Sea, and all merchant ships that go through the Suez Canal from the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden have to go along the Somali coast. However, in the past two years, there have been fewer and fewer merchant ships in eastern Indonesia. This is the inner view of journalists in Europe and the United States.

In addition to the above-mentioned inner complaints, almost all reporters have an extra scale in their hearts, feeling that the Indonesian Yankees can't manage this bit of internal affairs well, and they also condemn other countries for interfering, which is simply crazy.

I believe that after today's news breaks, public opinion around the world will support Lan Fang.

However, that's not all.

Pierre was finally sent to the stage by Gu Kun digging a pit to find an opportunity, how could Gu Kun just let him talk about these topics?

After the reporters of the Australian Associated Press were deflated, there were naturally other news agencies that wanted to dig up big news to praise them.

"May I ask you, Mr. Pierre, how did you find out about the Indonesian slavery problem in the first place, and what was your motivation for going undercover in the first place?"

"Can you tell us about the misdeeds of the other fisherman lords you have seen and heard about in the past two years, and what other incidents you find sensational, besides piracy and forced servitude?"

The Associated Press, AFP, and TASS have asked questions one after another, and these questions that were not important at the beginning have all poured out with this opportunity.

This time it's terrible, Pierre Rao is training, he usually doesn't cry, unless he can't hold it back, but as he speaks, he gradually collapses emotionally when he touches the scene, and everything falls out.

All the reporters didn't care about his misdemeanor at all, but were shocked by what he described and the photos that were revealed.

At the beginning of the 21 st century, there is still such a heinous place in the world? Moreover, it is not in African tribes, but in the so-called civilized countries that are integrated with the global international trade industrial chain.

"Just because the tropics don't freeze people to death, and the jungle is sheltered by trees and not afraid of direct sunlight, so just let the slaves live in iron cages?

"Forced labor on a ship for 20~22 hours a day? Thrown into the sea when you are seriously ill? If you work too slowly, you will occasionally be thrown into the sea to make an example of monkeys? Is this something that humans can do!"

All the participants only felt that the adrenaline was rushing, even if it was just a reprint of the AFP news today, a beat slower than AFP, and all the honor would go to AFP, it would be enough to make them excited, at least the ratings and sales would skyrocket.

At this time, Pierre, under the praise of a reporter, said the most important killer feature:

"I don't know if the Australian Associated Press colleagues have gotten some kind of gossip that is why they are so obscuring the lawlessness of Indonesians in the local waters.

Because as far as I know, some Australian companies are probably the biggest beneficiaries of the slave seafood trade in the waters east of Indonesia so far. The evidence we have in the past two years shows that a number of seafood giants, including Australia's KG-SeaFood Group, have imported Australian lobsters and white oysters from fisherman lords such as Banda Yuno and Yusuf.

I also have a few photos here, which clearly show that some middle-level cadres of supply chain management of KG Group have personally inspected the island and made secret visits, and because of this, they have found that 'the production cost of the Indian side is low', and they have used this as a reason to purchase prices and lower prices! I don't know that the Australian Associated Press and other colleagues have always been secretive about the above problems, and I don't want you to interview and ask in detail whether there is any interest related to this matter!"

As soon as this remark came out, it really stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and several foreign reporters sitting next to the Australian Associated Press reporter Marcus Payne subconsciously moved their butts to the side by two seats, as if the people of the Australian Associated Press had plague and a strange smell, and it would be very embarrassing to sit with him.

"What? Not only did he know, but he also deliberately used this to spy on him and use it as a bargaining chip to lower the other party's supply price? This is simply an accomplice!"

Reporters with a slight sense of justice in their hearts think so, and they also subconsciously draw a line with those thieves who are born in a pirate country.

This is an extremely bad thing, not only is it as simple as knowing it, but it is also more despicable than the later generations of Apple using Foxconn's sweatshop. Because Apple's example is nothing more than "I know Foxconn is a sweatshop". He is equivalent to "I know what the specific scale of your sweatshop is, so I know how big your profit margin is, and I can OPEN-BOM to dissect your cost composition in detail, so as to continue to press your price".

This is the deepest complicity. 150 years ago, the Breton textile tycoons who went to the south of the Oceania to buy cotton did the same thing - I know that your cotton is grown from black slaves, and black slaves are what I sold to you, and I know exactly how much the cost can be reduced by using black slaves, so your cotton should be sold cheaper.

The righteous people who spoke Chinese, Japanese, French, and German in the arena cast disdainful glances at the pirate slave traders, and the English dogs, and their hearts were filled with a strong sense of moral superiority.

Pierre on the stage seemed to say hi, and seeing that so many listeners below resonated and supported him with affection, the more he spoke, the more emotional he became:

“...... Perhaps Australian lobsters are more bright red than cedar lobsters in Southeast Asia, but in my opinion, it is just a little more human life and human blood, which can be called human blood lobster. Three years ago, when I was a young journalist in Paris looking for news with nothing to do, I used to be proud of eating a big meal made by Aulong, but from now on, I don't want to touch a bite. ”

"Australian lobster, human blood lobster! That's a great saying!" All reporters are in good spirits, and what they need to engage in mass media is simple, rude, convenient and powerful words, which can be easily praised by billions of people.

Later generations of media people who are well aware of this are all so rhythmic, even those who go to politics in Oceania try their best to make their wording full of vulgar and simple, repetitive and repetitive words, and it is best that ordinary citizens who have graduated from junior high school can understand all of their vocabulary.

The word "human blood lobster" is definitely catchy enough!

Although, they have forgotten an important premise: the production area of Australian lobster is actually very widespread, the eastern and southern seas of Australia account for the vast majority, and the low-cost goods in the northern seas of Australia account for less than 20% of the total production at most.

But now that these 20% have a scandal, there is a big hype selling point, and the media are leading the rhythm together, using these 20% of bad deeds to cover the remaining 80%, and it can only be said that some black-hearted giants have suffered by themselves.

......

Two hours later, the press conference was completely over, and all the media involved went back to catch up with the press release.

And the AFP, which acted the fastest, had actually sent out Pierre's things immediately - Pierre had already done all the topics he had to do before he spoke, so the moment he took the stage, he sent his share to his original boss.

The leaders of AFP were of course very satisfied with Pierre's performance, and directly promoted him according to the highest specifications, made him the head of the international news gathering department, and encouraged him with a smile that this year's Pulitzer Prize was stable.

Gu Kun was very satisfied with this rhythm, and was ready to quietly watch the power of this storm that he had stirred up with one hand.
