0643 The Beginning of the Battle (5K Chapters)

"BOSS, things are not as exaggerated as you think, Royal Cruise Lines' main business is now only to repair and renovate ships, although it has the name of cruise ship, but it has long ceased to undertake cruise manufacturing business. ”

Rosalind looked at the equipment in her hand and said, "The market value of the Royal Cruise Line Group is less than one-twentieth of that of the Atlantic shipyard. ”

The Atlantic shipyard is the French shipyard that built the "Symphony of the Seas", with a market value of around 6 billion euros, while the market value of the Royal Cruise Line Group is only 200 million pounds.

A market capitalization of £200 million may seem like a lot, but Royal Cruise Lines was once the shipyard that built the world's top cruise ships.

Wu Qian laughed, shook his head and said: "It seems that I made my own mistake, and I shouldn't have chosen to transform the cruise ship in this small shipyard in the UK, huh? Wait, Rosalinde, when did you say that Spanish company acquired Royal Cruises?"

"Four days ago, what happened, boss?" replied Rosalind.

Wu Qian's brows furrowed, he felt that he had ignored the important information of the time node before.

"Four days, four days ago...... Can you help me recall that I was a few days after I took over the Symphony of the Seas from Satmuzi, by the way, I invited Mr. Wang to visit the cruise ship four days ago!"

Wu Qian felt that the timing of Choi Jae-in's acquisition of the Royal Cruise Line Group was too coincidental, and it was a coincidence that he had just officially announced that he would build a Harrods branch on the sea, and he had made preparations here, which was not normal.

"Could it be that Mr. Wang is a spy of the Cui family......? In the case of Mr. Wang, the reverse is almost the same, and Mr. Wang doesn't know where the cruise ship is transformed, so who will it be?"

Wu Qian muttered softly.

In addition to Wu Qian in the car, Cooks and Rosalind were Cooks and Rosalind, Cooks drove slowly, because the boss did not give a clear order, he didn't know where to go, hearing the boss's words, he continued: "Boss, you can not only meet with Mr. Wang that day, but also on that day, several high-level Harold leaders arrived in the magic capital." ”

Wu Qian closed his eyes as if he was recalling something, and when he heard Kux's words, he just waved his hand, and there was a picture in his mind of the captain Kanop leading the cruise ship to greet him.

"Do you remember that there was a high-ranking officer on the ship, and the official position was ......?"

Before Wu Qian's words were finished, Rosalind said, "Do you want to say the third or fourth officer on the ship?"

Bang, Wu Qian slapped his thigh, opened his eyes, and exclaimed: "Yes, that's the person, I remember that the person is the third officer, the fourth officer is a black fat man from Algeria, and the third officer is a man from the country of sticks...... Call...... What's it called,, I don't remember. ”

The third officer is the title of the crew, second to the second officer, generally in charge of life-saving equipment, fire-fighting equipment, etc., and takes turns to drive on duty when sailing, although it is not the top officer on the ship, but it definitely has a pivotal position in terms of safety.

There were more than ten high-level people on the cruise ship that day, Wu Qian only remembered that the captain's name was Kanop, and the names of the others were all forgotten, at most he remembered some characteristics, which was really in a hurry.

Rosalind quickly inquired about the information and said, "According to the compilation information of the 'Ocean Symphony', the third mate is indeed a person from the Stick Country, named Choi Jun-so!"

"That's him!" Wu Qian shouted.

There are more than 2,000 staff on the cruise ship, and there are people everywhere in the world, if it weren't for Wang Chenchen who happened to eavesdrop on the plan of Cui Zairen and others, Wu Qian would not have thought that there were ghosts on the cruise ship at all.

"If the guess is correct, this person named Choi Jun-so is the guy who gave the news to Choi Jae-in, Made, this whole line is ambushed deep enough. ”

After that, Wu Qian took out the phone and prepared to contact Captain Kanop, but he thought about it and made a call to Satmuzi first.

didn't mean anything else, mainly to ask about Kanop's career trajectory, and after asking, Wu Qian felt that the captain should have no problem, so he called Kanop's phone.

From the East China Sea, you have to pass through the Wanwan Strait, the South China Sea, the Strait of Malacca, the Andaman Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean, and the English Channel, and finally arrive in London.

At this time, the "Ocean Symphony", which had just set off for a few days, sailed out of the territorial waters of the Celestial Empire.

The dark night sky is full of stars, and admiring the starry sky on the ocean is no less satisfying to the senses than looking up at the sea of stars in the desert.

Kanop is ready to rest, this time period is the time of the second officer on duty, because there are no tourists, it is relatively easy to sail, as long as the weather allows, it is basically full speed forward.

Kanop was surprised to receive a call from his new owner.

"Boss, good evening (he thought Wu Qian was still in the Celestial Empire), may I ask for any instructions. ”

Wu Qian didn't care about the details of etiquette, he asked, "Are you alone now?"

Kanop said: "I am preparing to rest in my cabin, and I am alone. ”

"Let me ask you something, is the third mate on the ship a stick countryman named Choi Jun-so?" Wu Qian did not directly hold it all, but asked about the situation first.

Kanop didn't understand why the boss asked this, but he replied truthfully: "Boss, Choi Junsu is a crew member who joined the crew half a month ago, and he has a very good resume, according to his qualifications, he is fully qualified to serve as the first officer on an ordinary cruise ship......"

"Cui Sandei is usually very conscientious, many things are done by himself, and the execution is very strong, I think if the first mate retires, he has every chance to be promoted, hey, boss, are you listening to me? Xie Te, is there no signal......

Bang bang, knock on the phone.

Kanop talked for a long time and found that it was very quiet in the earpiece.

After Wu Qiancong heard that Choi Jun-so was hired a few months ago, he had already determined in his heart the fact that he was an internal ghost.

"There's a signal, Kanop, you listen to me......"

There must always be someone who can be trusted, and Wu Qian told Kanop some of the news he knew.

"What? Choi Jun-so is a spy? They're going to do something on the cruise ship?!"

After listening to Wu Qian's words, Kanop was suddenly not calm.

"Someone sent me a report in advance, Royal Cruises has been infiltrated by the other party, as for Choi Junsu, it can only be regarded as suspicious, you pay more attention to his behavior over there, but if there is anything unreasonable, control it directly!"

Wu Qian commanded.

"Boss, don't worry, I will never allow him to do anything to hurt the 'Ocean Symphony', I will definitely pay close attention!"

It was the privilege of Kanop to be the captain of the world's largest cruise ship in the world, and he would not allow his honor to be tarnished.

Wu Qian couldn't see Kanop's appearance, the guy was so angry that his cheeks were red, and he said: "Don't act rashly, let's see what he is going to do next, and you must catch the evidence before you do it, in addition, the route will follow the normal route, and the whole cruise ship is only allowed to know about it!"

Some people see trust as dung, others see trust as life, and Ocamp is the latter, and his heart is full of glory for the new boss's trust in him, and he repeatedly promises to complete the task.

The two hung up the phone after chatting about business.

Wu Qian held the mobile phone in his hand and circled around, thinking in his mind, and decided to change the shipyard to transform the cruise ship.

The British shipyard has been infiltrated by an opponent, so change it, and since the conspiracy has been recognized, there is no need to be tough.

Solving problems is ability, but being able to prevent problems from happening is even more ability.

After thinking for a while, Wu Qian dialed Rapo Erkan's phone.

The phone rang for a while before it was connected.

"Hi~~~, dear Wu ...... Wait, baby, don't worry, it's a very important call, MUA...... Wu, what's the matter with me?"

At some particularly critical times, if it weren't for an important call, Rapo Elkan would not have been able to answer at all.

Wu Qian heard the coquettish voice of the background sound, his face was strange, and he said, "Elkan, you are in broad daylight...... Well, admiring your energy, let me ask you something, is there a particularly large shipyard in your country?"

Rapo Elkan grabbed his phone around his neck as he picked up his bathrobe from the ground next to the bed and wrapped it, and said, "Wu, I guess you mean the Fincantieri shipyard, if yes, then yes, it's really large." By the way, I watched the news today, is it on the Solan side?"

The Italian Fincantri shipbuilding group is the world's largest cruise shipbuilder and the fourth largest shipyard in the world.

With a long history of nearly 200 years of designing and building warships, the group has its headquarters in "Trieste" and its design department in Genoa, producing about 7,000 ships of various types, including passenger ferries, ferries, surface ships, auxiliary ships and submarines. Home

Fincantri represents Italy's advanced industrial technology, especially passenger and luxury cruise ships, which occupy the first position in the world, accounting for about 40% of the international market, and today also holds a stake in a branch of the French Atlantic shipyard.

Wu Qian chuckled in his heart, Rapo Elkan didn't show too much concern about the affairs of Solan Country at the beginning, but he actually took the initiative to pay attention, it seems that the willingness to participate is quite strong, but now is not the time to talk about those things.

"It seems that you know the situation in Solan better than me, haha, Kuretta is controlling the situation of the war, I don't know much about it. I would like to ask, do you have any acquaintances in the Fincantree Group?"

Rapo Elkan laughed and said, "Wu, if you want to believe in the energy of the Agnelli family in Italy, is it possible that your newly purchased cruise ship has broken down, or are you planning to build a few destroyers to fight pirates in the Persian Gulf?"

Wu Qian said angrily: "Shut your god-level crow's mouth! My cruise ship needs to be renovated on the project, and I don't know where it is better to put it in that shipyard." ”

Rapo Elkan remembered the powerful effect of his crow's beak, and hurriedly stopped mentioning those who had and didn't, and said: "Transforming the cruise ship is pediatric for Fincantree, Wu, do you need me to make any arrangements in advance?"

Wu Qian said: "No, I just want to understand, and I have to ask Germany and Finland, you are busy, I have time to go to Italy to find you." ”

"Okay, welcome to Italy, goodbye my friend. ”

With that, the two hung up the phone.

While Wu Qian was calling Elkan, Rosalind was checking Fincantri's information, and after the analysis of the two, Fincantri had a military background, and it was absolutely impossible for a shipyard of that level to be infiltrated in a short period of time, and there was no problem with security.

……

For the next few days, Wu Qian would contact Ocamp every day, but Choi Jun-so didn't have any strange behavior.

Three days have passed, and Wu Qian simply left Choi Jae-in's plot against him behind, and he couldn't delay his life for the sake of something that didn't happen.

As the days passed, Wu went to Leeds Castle to inspect the solid-state battery laboratory that had been moved, learned about the experimental process, and supervised it.

On the same day, Wu asked Fimiler to entrust the gold store that had built a pure gold football for Guardiola to help him create a little gadget.

The last stop of Manchester United's Celestial Journey was in Beijing, and in addition to the club members, Yao Xinlu and Lu Hao flew to London with the plane.

Wu Qian specially went to the airport to welcome the players back.

The rest of the team will be spent training in preparation for the upcoming competitions in Europe.

Wu Qian also received an invitation from the British Museum to attend an art appreciation party, where he once again met the eldest grandson of a Swiss banker, Pinault, whom he met at the Celebrity Ball in Clion.

Pino was very happy to see Wu Qian again, and Wu Qian reminded him not to touch the Jiang Group's stock, which proved to be a wise decision.

Pino introduced Wu to his friends, and his circle was also friends who were rolling in the financial circle.

A group of "financial pride" talked about the long-short war that happened in the Brent crude oil market some time ago, and the big guys said with their eyebrows fluttering, laughing heartily when they made money, and shaking their heads with a wry smile when they lost money.

Wu Qian, as a long-short all-you-can-eat investor, acted as an audience with a wine glass in the crowd, and whenever the people around him respected the short investors, Wu Qian's heart felt particularly beautiful.

If the person who lost the money knew that the strongest main force of the bearish army was Wu Qian, who laughed with him, I don't know what he would think.

Three days after Fimiller commissioned the gold store, a middle-aged man visited Partridge Manor, carrying a lockbox that was smaller than a regular desktop case.

"Mr. Wu, the items you requested have been built, do you see if you are satisfied?"

With that, the middle-aged man opened the lockbox in his hand.

I saw a dazzling gold flash from the lockbox, and dozens of playing cards made of pure gold were stacked on top of each other on the black flannel, as delicate as a work of art.

Wu Qian picked up an ace of spades from the lockbox, which was cold to the touch, and the numbers and patterns inlaid with obsidian on the card with a special pattern were shining with golden light, which was very textured.

Each playing card costs about 30 grams of gold, and the cost of a deck of playing cards is close to one million soft girl coins.

"Yes, Femil, pay the final payment. ”

Wu Qian accepted the pure gold poker, and then called all the twelve newly invited bodyguards to his side.

Looking at the powerful men and women in front of him, Wu Qian smiled and said, "Do you know what my name is?"

"Know, Mr. Wu, Wu Qian!"

Everyone replied in unison.

Wu Qian nodded and said, "Very good, that, some people's Mandarin is not standard, so you need to strengthen your practice." ”

A humorous sentence amused everyone, Wu Qian continued: "It is not difficult for you to remember my name, but it is a little difficult for me to remember the names of so many of you, in order to avoid the embarrassing situation that I can't call your name in the future, I specially prepared a little gift for you." ”

Wu Qian pointed to the desk next to him and said, "You are the second group of bodyguards who follow me, and I am honored that you have won the spade card." ”

After that, Wu Qian walked to the table, picked up the ace of spades from the flannel and looked around, and said, "Which of you wants this biggest ace of spades?"

Aces are generally considered to be the cards of the highest suit, and if anyone picks up this card, it means that they will be the eldest of the group.

Twelve, you look at me, I look at you, and no one has taken a step.

If you were still in the army at the moment, maybe some people would volunteer, but now that they have returned to a complex society, everyone believes in the principle of being a low-key person, and I apologize.

Wu Qian put one hand behind his back, and the other hand held the golden ace of spades, and looked at the crowd in front of him with a smile, although everyone's eyes were burning, but no one was willing to take a step forward.

"I recommend one, and he will be your leader in the future!"

With that, Wu Qian's wrist flicked, and the playing card turned into a golden light and flew towards Cooks who was standing aside.

As the first person to follow him, Wu Qian is more trusting psychologically, and Kuks has the most ghost ideas, in other words, his combat power and brain are good, and he is not a big problem as the ace of spades.

None of the twelve made the ace of spades, but none of them had an opinion, they had more or less heard of Kuks in the G4S, and the German man did have a strong ability.

Next, Wu Qian broke up the remaining twelve playing cards and let the twelve draw them one by one.

"8 of spades, king of spades, 10 of spades......"

Every time a poker is issued, Wu Qian tries to remember the other party's appearance and characteristics, and when the twelve pokers are distributed, he clapps his palms.

"Okay, this is your code name in the future, but you are not allowed to owe foreign debts to sell poker, do you hear?"

"Yes, Boss!"

Everyone reached it in unison, with a great sense of belonging, and everyone hid this golden poker that represented their identity.

"Alright, let's go......"

Wu Qian waved his hand and dismissed his bodyguards.

This is just a small episode in the ordinary days, in the recent period, Wu Qian's daily must do is to understand the battle situation of Solan Kingdom, the whole process is a little different from David's original guess, it turns out that there is white and there is black.

Kuretta and Wu Qian supported Orr Hanwen to regain his rule over the kingdom of Solan, and mysterious capital appeared behind the three warlords, providing them with sufficient armaments, and the war between the two sides fell into a stalemate.

However, this stalemate did not last long, and after Kureta got two cloudburst bombers from somewhere, the resistance of the three coalition warlords was completely broken, and the stronghold was left behind......

This incident caused a great repercussion in the international community, and some people stood up to make irresponsible remarks, but the noise did not last long and died down.
