Chapter 632: Going to Africa in person
Yes, war, in this land, there are wars all year round, sometimes because of resources, sometimes because of faith, and some without even a reason, maybe just a few people's small quarrels, can evolve into a big conflict between tribes, and then sweep half of the country with countless casualties, in this magical place, war is really the eternal main theme. At the same time, in addition to war, there are also a series of problems brought about by war, such as poverty, ignorance, disease, and backward infrastructure.
These problems were previously a distraction factor in the construction of grain bases, but now they have become obstacles to the transportation of grain abroad.
In the famine years, no African force would watch a cart of grain pulled out and be indifferent, even if Chen Dahe had more than 40,000 escorts in his hands, whether he could fight or not, when he was hungry, the food was in front of him, and naturally he had fought to say that even if he died in battle, it was better than starvation.
Fortunately, Chen Dahe does not want to do charity directly, although most of the grain will definitely fall into the mouths of those hungry people, but in what form, he is very particular, and if he does it well, he can not only save the suffering, but also make a lot of money.
Fortunately, he had already made arrangements for this, at least, those warlords with red eyes could solve some of them in advance.
So at this time, in the face of Emma's worries, Chen Dahe just shook his head and smiled, "You don't have to worry about these problems, your task now is to supervise the management team of the grain base to do their best to ensure a bumper yield of grain in the planting process, as for harvesting and transportation, I will arrange someone to take over at that time, and they only need to do a good job of handing over at that time." ”
Emma was slightly stunned, then nodded lightly to show that the employer's meaning was already very clear, they were only responsible for growing grain, and the later harvest and transportation and even where to go had nothing to do with them.
Anyway, before the grain is ripe, even if the wolves are around, they will never attack the grain base, because it is useless to rob it, and when it comes to the maturity period, the safety of the planting base will also be taken over, and the original management team will withdraw directly.
After sending Emma away, Chen Dahe contacted ten other groups of UBS's investment advisory team to convey the same meaning to them, and after doing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Even in a year of severe drought, with the guarantee of irrigation systems and agricultural machinery, the vast majority of Africa's grain base should not be greatly affected, and at most the output will be slightly lower than in the first half of the year, but in terms of total output, it should be able to meet Africa's food deficit of seven to eighty percent.
In addition, the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) will also make a response plan for disasters in Africa, but it is difficult to reassure how much it will help.
After reading so many materials this year, Chen Dahe also awakened the only little memory of famine in Africa, in general, there are only two, one is Ethiopia in the 80s, it seems that tens of millions of people are under the torture of hunger and the threat of death, half of them are children, and this is not counting other countries that are also in famine. The origin of this figure is no longer known, it is about the time when he was a child, he heard it from adults, although it was already the nineties when he heard the story, but people still seem to remember it vividly, that is, from that time on, the people of the country were full of pity and sympathy when they talked about Africa, and it was not until the new century that it began to change.
Based on this information, it can be seen that the efforts of the United Nations should have been ineffective, or ineffective.
The other is a photo, a very famous, sensational photo of the world, the hungry sultan, it has another name, the vulture behind the girl! In Sudan, Africa in '93, a young American photographer took this photo, the next year won the Pulitzer Prize for journalism, two months after the award, the photographer committed suicide in Africa due to public opinion attacks, the story behind this photo and don't care, although it was the nineties, not this time the famine in Africa, but in the record of the United Nations WFP, the severity of the famine in the eighties was much higher than that in Sudan in the nineties, which shows the seriousness of this disaster.
Perhaps, the little girl in the photo has a mother who received relief food and survived, and at this time on the land of Africa, there may be countless places where vultures can be fed while waiting for the hungry to die.
Thinking of this, Chen Dahe couldn't help but pat his face to make himself sober. What's more, even if Lao Tzu is a black-hearted capitalist, but first of all, he is a person, but he is indifferent under the premise of obviously having the ability, and this kind of thing that has no ** to give birth to a son can't be done.
I just don't know how Liu Jianjian's progress is, if he doesn't settle those greedy warlords and tribal forces first, no matter how much food he has, he won't be able to reach the mouths of the hungry people!
Unable to sit still, Chen Dahe simply picked up the phone, called the school's teacher in charge of student affairs and asked for two weeks of leave, and then used another confidential phone to dial a number, and only then did he contact Dong Jianlei.
"Lao Dong, do you have time to accompany me on a trip to Africa?"
"Yes," Dong Jianlei didn't hesitate, agreed without asking anything, and then said, "Is there not enough manpower over there over there Lao Liu, or will I bring more people over this time?"
Chen Dahe rarely contacts him usually, but this time he took the initiative to find him, there must be something big happening, and as far as he knows, in addition to more than 40,000 people from more than 20 security companies, Liu Jianshe has dozens of elites around him, but he asked him to accompany him to Africa, obviously the people over there cannot be transferred, they can only find people from his side.
"Yes," Chen Dahe was also very simple, "You don't need too many people, more than a dozen are almost, you have to be reliable." ”
"I understand that there are many people from the Soviet Union who come from China to make a living, and some of them are from the same unit as me, and I recruited them all, and they are absolutely reliable. ”
A unit, that is the unit where Lao Dong once stayed, I didn't expect him to find comrades in the Soviet Union, these people can rest assured, Chen Dahe naturally has no opinion.
After agreeing on the place and time of the meeting, and informing Liu Jianjian, Chen Dahe asked Ainas to arrange a charter flight, and the next day he took Ye Zhenggen and Tuan to fly directly from Zurich to Egypt.
Egypt is a good place, located in the northeast of Africa, located in Europe, Asia and Africa, the traffic point of the three continents, is a shortcut to the sea route between the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean, and as an Arab country, unlike the Libya next door that completely overturned the United States and the Soviet Union, based on the relationship between the number one rival Israel, although it is still very resistant to the United States, it maintains fairly good exchanges with Western Europe, which can be called unimpeded information without being too paranoid, and it is a good place to connect.
The operational information center led by Liu Jianshe is located here.
