With a short distance of two hundred meters from the airport runway to the VIP exit, Jonas has only two senses, one is hot and the other is mosquito-ridden.

The mosquitoes in the sky rushed into his face like fighter jets, and he even had to hold his breath for fear that the mosquitoes would enter his nostrils.

No one speaks, because of a mouth, mosquitoes enter the mouth.

Quark, the head of the presidential office who greeted him on behalf of President Santos, had a slightly apologetic smile on his face all the time, trying to get someone to come and give Jonas an umbrella, but when he saw Jonas rushing towards the exit, he could only trot after him.

Entering the airport hall, Jonas is like entering a steamer, and there are all kinds of sweat odors inside, which is very strong.

He was holding his breath, but when he got indoors, he saw that there were fewer mosquitoes, took a deep breath, and almost didn't stink to death.

Jonas turned his head to look at the crowd, and they all looked frustrated that they had escaped and fallen into hell.

As a guest invited by the President, Jonas enjoyed the privilege of not having to check his luggage and not having to pay additional taxes on goods.

Accompanied by Quark and surrounded by a group of lazy soldiers, he only had to give his passport to the customs officer and stamped it, and then passed through the customs.

At this time, Plov and the others passed through the customs and gathered around Jonas with their luggage, and in such a place, he trusted his bodyguards more.

You must know that the soldiers of Angola are a representative of lack of training and lack of discipline.

The holidays of the soldiers say that they want to rest, even if they are fighting, they must go home for the holidays first.

If the weather is bad, they will not act, there is no discipline at all, and the efficiency of the army is as low as the efficiency of the local government.

Otherwise, there would not be a country of more than 10 million people, a civil war fought for 27 years.

Of course, they are not without positive times, and when they are grabbing money, they are more active than anyone else.

Three Soviet-made buses loaded them all, with three military vehicles in front and three in front and three in front of them, loaded machine guns.

It's really an extremely backward country, and you can't even see a single power line along the way, which means that at night, the whole city will be pitch black.

"Mr. Hoffmann, Your Excellency the President has understood your unaccustomed travel from cold Europe to Africa and has arranged for you to live on the island of Luanda. It's a long and narrow peninsula with white sandy beaches, cool sea breezes and, most importantly, not so many mosquitoes. ”

"Thank you very much for the arrangement of Your Excellency the President, and I am very satisfied with this result. ”

Quark added: "Tonight, Your Excellency the President will hold a welcome banquet for you and everyone at the Government Palace, and from tomorrow onwards, negotiations will be held at the Government Palace. ”

Jonas asked, "Is it a two-way meeting or a three-way meeting?"

"Some are two-party talks, but some are tripartite talks, and the specific situation will not be known until the negotiation framework is determined," the other party said. ”

Jonas also knew that the current Soviet Union had a great influence on Angola.

In the Angolan War of Independence, Amenia did not come forward and sent the Rainbow Country to help Angola. The Soviet Union did not intervene either, and sent Cuba to help Angola.

As a result, the heroic and warlike Cubans defeated Portugal and helped Santos defeat Armenia's agent, the Rainbow State, and pulled Angola into the Eastern camp.

The current Angola is a sovereign country supported by the Soviet Union, and many of their policies are naturally influenced by the Soviet Union.

Jonas was not worried about the Soviet Union, because he knew that in a few years, the massive battleship would capsize due to a sudden turn.

The Western countries, which were originally trembling, were simply ecstatic, knowing that before their sudden collapse, whether militarily or politically, they had been suppressing Western countries.

Oil investment plans are long-term, and even if exploration begins this year, it will take a year or two to take a series of actions, from exploration to testing reserves.

After two more years of fighting for the ownership of the oil fields, the Soviet Union will be on the verge of becoming history.

Now, on the contrary, he needs to use the banner of the Soviet Union to deter his own people.

Credit Suisse, Svensson, Alexander Riccello, they are all oil merchants who want a piece of the pie with Jonas.

And there are more than a dozen of such people this time, and when the oil field is discovered, I am afraid that at least a hundred will want to come out and get a piece of the pie.

They have their own small interests behind them, and many times, it is not the case that anyone's big fist will work, unless one person can bring down everyone, like Armenia.

From the beginning of exploration, all the entanglements of interests began to emerge and continued to the entire chain of oil extraction, oil transportation, oil sales, and petroleum refining.

In addition to this, there are investments in the secondary market. In many cases, in order to make the futures market go with their own plans, they will deliberately create artificial crises, and many oil merchants deliberately create wars for the purpose of increasing the price of oil.

Dozens of kidnappings occur in Nigeria every year, most of them backed by financiers.

Of course, Rich and Green were the biggest behind it.

In short, Jonas had to learn to share benefits from the beginning, know how to make trade-offs, and use oil as a weapon to win over or deal with his opponents.

It's a dirty industry, but it's also exciting, and it's a great way to become a good person quickly.

So, no matter how dirty it is, it can attract countless careerists and powerful countries to participate in this game.

Jonas knows his strengths, and in addition to Richie's support, the fact that he has plenty of money is his greatest advantage.

And these funds have already enveloped hundreds of big businessmen and multinational corporations, and they have formed a force that no one dares to easily host.

In other words, as long as there are no serious problems with the funds on Hoffman's investment bank, Jonas is now qualified to sit in the bank.

This is also the reason why the Soviets and President Santos asked him to preside.

With a clean net worth, extensive connections, and far-reaching entanglement of interests, there are not many people who can be more suitable than Jonas to come forward.

By comparison, he owns 40 percent of the shares in transoceanic drilling, which is nothing.

Because as long as you have money, even if you rent it, you can rent a drilling platform.

They arrived in Luanda at 2 p.m., and in early February, Angola was in the southern hemisphere, close to the equator, and the heat was overwhelming.

It was still relatively cool in the car, but when he entered the hotel, he couldn't stay any longer.

Now he is not too afraid of the cold, and he does not wear autumn pants on snowy days, but he is extremely not hot, and this weather makes his head seem to melt.

He stayed in one of the best rooms, but the room was a little better. There is no air conditioning, only a fan, because it is a diesel generator, some of it does not move, it turns very slowly, or hot air.

After changing out of his long-sleeved shirt and trousers and leather shoes, he wore a pair of large pants, a short-sleeved T-shirt, and a pair of flip-flops to the restaurant.

And most of them were also prepared and changed into similar attire as Jonas.

The restaurant has prepared a variety of cuisines, and the supply of seafood and fruits is relatively adequate.

But there are not enough vegetables and meat, and Jonas and his logistics team have not yet shipped vegetables and meat.

A country of more than a million square kilometers, not to mention vegetables and meat, is not even self-sufficient in food.

Jonas asked the chef to grill two large lobsters and opened a bottle of cold beer brought from the plane under the grass hut on the hotel beach.

Svensson was more exaggerated than Jonas, shirtless, revealing his fat flesh and hairy chest. "Jonas, this hot weather is also an unforgettable experience!"

"I'd rather not have such an experience. Jonas wiped the sweat from his face and shouted, "Erwin, I need you to change some of the details of this negotiation process. ”

Mikiros and Erwin came running profusely, Mikiros was the chief steward of the delegation, but she was a woman, and many times Erwin had to intervene.

They took out pen and paper, and Jonas said, "First of all, the supply of meat and vegetables once a week has been changed to at least once every three days. Secondly, three tonnes of ice are to be supplied every day......"

"There are only 120 of us, and even if we are five kilograms per person, we don't need a ton of ice," Mikiros said. ”

"The rest is given to President Santos and the Soviet delegation. Then it is urgently airlifted, or a generator is brought in from the surrounding area, to ensure that every member of the team has access to electricity and cool breeze during the negotiation process. ”

Svensson said: "It's easy to do, my oil field in Gabon is not far from here, and I can help you bring in an 800 kilowatt generator, which can directly drive the ice machine and freezer." I'm calling now, I'm going today, I'll be there tomorrow. ”

Jonas was not polite, nodded to him and said: "In the oil industry, I am still a newcomer, and I still lack experience in many details, and this is also a good opportunity to learn from you." ”

Svensson shook his head and smiled: "In our industry, as long as there is money, as long as there are people, everything else is a small section." ”

Jonas explained to Mikiros again: "There are more than 100 people, one doctor is not enough, call another doctor to come, we have brought enough medicines, we don't need to prepare them for the time being." ”

Mikiros and the others went down, and Svensson said again: "Jonas, you have been busy with car affairs recently, and you have not come to form a negotiation team, and there are some things I want to exchange with you." ”

Two large lobsters were brought up, and when they were hot, Jonas had no appetite, and at this time, he wanted to have a cold noodle.

After listening to Svensson's words, he smiled and said, "Believe me, if not a good speaker, but a good listener who takes advice." ”

Svensson nodded and said, "My oil fields in Gabon are already depleted, and Cabinda is an opportunity that I take very seriously. If an oil field can be discovered here, I hope to get a priority opportunity. ”

Svensson's influence is not large within the interest group, and his advantage is that he has been in Africa for more than two decades. From the beginning of smuggling diamonds and gold, to the current development of oil fields, he has never left Africa.

He was one of the most active in this investment plan, and in order to get the right to develop an oil field, he took the initiative to stand up and was willing to act as a lobbyist for the rebels.

Jonas didn't answer him directly, and asked, "I always think that giving and giving back is the fairest, what do you think?"
