Chapter 409: The Death of the Chinese
ps: The chapter name of the previous chapter is wrong, it should be chapter 408.
In May 1998, Indonesian rioters launched a series of riots against the Chinese, which could not help but shock the Chinese around the world!
The immediate trigger for the "May riots" was, of course, that Indonesia was hit hard by the Asian financial crisis that began in 1997, destroying 30 years of prosperity, plummeting local currency, soaring fuel and food prices, and boiling public resentment. A large number of facts disclosed show that the Su family, represented by Suharto's son-in-law and commander of the Army's Strategic Reserve Force, Lieutenant General Prabowo, and some people within the military conspired and planned despicable actions such as shooting students, mutilating Chinese people, and inciting racial contradictions in order to divert the attention of the people, forcibly impose military control, and prolong the family's rule, and were the masterminds behind the "May riots."
On May 12, protests by Indonesian university students demanding reform reached a fever pitch, with six university students shot dead and social riots against ethnic Chinese......
Li Zetian saw the news and sighed secretly, although he had long known that the Indonesian government would target the Chinese, but he couldn't stop it, what he could do was to try to help the Indonesian Chinese.
Chinese mainland also received the news as soon as possible, and sent ships to send the Indonesian Chinese away. However, it is ridiculous that many Indonesian Chinese actually can't trust Chinese mainland, saying that they will not board the ship until the ship sent by the Taiwan government!
In their cognition, China's orthodoxy is Taiwan's Kuomintang, and they even think that Taiwan is stronger than the mainland!
In addition, in 1949, when the Kuomintang was defeated, some Indonesian Chinese were originally Kuomintang or Kuomintang relatives, and they came to Indonesia to settle down, fearing that the Chinese government would settle accounts with them, so they did not dare to get on the ship.
A small port in Indonesia.
"Mr. Wu, let's talk about it, these fleeing Indonesian Chinese just refuse to get on the boat, let me see, let's leave them alone, let's get on the boat quickly!" a young man in his twenties looked at the middle-aged man next to him and said angrily.
"Yes, Mr. Wu, let's hurry up and sail the boat, in case the Indonesian thugs find our boat, it will be troublesome! Don't these Indonesian Chinese who don't know what to do and not know what to do to wait for Taiwan to come and save them? Okay, then let them continue to wait and see if Taiwan will save them!!" A dark-skinned man said with a mocking face.
The middle-aged man named Mr. Wu was wearing a black suit and had a calm temperament, he looked at the more than a dozen ragged Indonesian Chinese on the shore, and sighed unconsciously, "Okay, tell me to go down and sail!"
"Yes!!" Several people next to him nodded in unison.
The people on the shore couldn't help but panic as they watched the boat sail away.
"Daddy, the boat is gone!!" exclaimed a little girl of five or six years old with a dirty face as she pointed to the boat in the distance.
A middle-aged man hugged the little girl and said softly, "It's okay, there will be a boat to pick us up later!"
The little girl opened her big eyes and was puzzled: "Dad, why don't we just get on this boat?"
The middle-aged man whispered: "This is Chinese mainland's ship, if we get on their ship, they will confiscate your father's property! Father will not be able to buy you good things to eat in the future......
"Oh, then we don't get on their boat!"
The group waited and waited and waited for a day and did not wait for another ship to come.
The night is getting deeper, there is a bright moon hanging in the sky, the night wind is coming, and I don't feel a chill welling up in my heart.
Everyone gathered together, but they felt more and more scared.
"Why hasn't the ship that saved us yet?"
"Yes, it stands to reason that we are very close to Taiwan here, even Chinese mainland has sent a ship over, why hasn't Taiwan's ship come yet?"
"It's not like it's not coming, is it? I've heard that riots have broken out in several places, and the Taiwan side can't save them at all!"
"No, no! I have already contacted my friends in Taiwan and asked for their assistance!" said a well-dressed old man. This old man is a wealthy Indonesian businessman, and he is the most prestigious in the crowd!
When they heard this, they fell silent.
I've said this many times, but I still haven't seen any ships coming.
"Mr. Li's business is all over Indonesia and Taiwan, what he says must be credible, everyone wait patiently! Taiwan must have sent a boat, and it is on the way!"
As soon as a man's voice fell, a bright light appeared on the sea in the distance.
"The boat is coming!" the sharp-eyed man couldn't help but exclaim, then stood up and pointed in one direction.
The crowd looked in the direction of the man's finger, and sure enough, a ship was coming.
Everyone was overjoyed!
"I'll just say, Taiwan will definitely send a ship to rescue us!" said the old man of the rich businessman proudly.
After a while, the ship was about to go ashore.
Looking at the appearance of the ship, everyone was very surprised.
This ship is the same ship in the daytime!
The crowd couldn't help but be disappointed.
At this time, the owner of the ship got off the boat and walked in front of everyone, and before he could speak, the old man of the wealthy Indonesian businessman and Chinese took the lead in asking, "Why are you back again?"
The owner replied, "Halfway through, we transferred the men to another, larger ship, which escorted them to safety! At the moment, Indonesia is very dangerous, and the longer you stay, the more unsafe it will be!"
The old man shook his head and said loudly: "We have to wait for Taiwan's ship!"
The owner of the ship said: "We met the Taiwanese ship on the way, but their boat was already crowded with people and could not come to pick you up now." I explained your situation to them, and they said that I am afraid that we will not be able to arrive here until noon tomorrow at the latest! I think you should get on our boat! When the day comes, it will be easy for the Indonesian mob to find you, and it will be miserable!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone looked at each other.
"Daddy, Daddy, let's get on the boat, I'm afraid!!" said the little girl, cowering in her father's arms.
The girl's father hesitated and decided to get on board.
Property is valuable, but life is more valuable. In order not to let her daughter be harmed, all the property was taken away by the communists!
"Okay, let's get on board!"
As he spoke, the girl's father took his daughter's little hand and walked in the direction of the boat.
When everyone saw that their father and daughter were gone, they followed.
Not long after, most of the people got on the boat, and only a few people, including the rich merchant and the old man, remained.
"Everyone is on board, why don't you get on board?!" the owner asked.
The rich merchant and the old man did not answer.
The owner of the ship spoke several more words of persuasion, but no matter how the owner persuaded them, they would not get on board.
"Mr. Wu, I think you should not bother. They are dogs that bite Lu Dongbin, they don't know the hearts of good people, and they think that we are going to harm them, and they will not get on the boat even if they die!" said the deputy standing beside the owner.
The owner of the boat shook his head and sighed again, beckoned to the person next to him, and said, "Okay, everyone is ready to sail! We will not delay here, there are still people in other places who need us to rescue!"
"Yes!"
After a while, the ship went away again.
The night is deeper, it's colder, and it's terrible quiet!
None of the rich businessmen and the old man spoke, curled up on one foot, trembling in fear, and looked at the sea from time to time, hoping that a ship from Taiwan would come......
After a sleepless night, it was dawn.
"Ahh
"Murdered!"
"Don't kill me, I'm not Chinese!"
“……”
Suddenly, screams were heard in the distance.
Hearing these voices, the faces of the rich businessmen and the old men suddenly changed greatly.
"Brothers, there are still a few people hiding here! I know that old man, a rich Chinese businessman!!
A blood-stained, long-haired young man, holding a knife in his right hand, rushed towards the wealthy old man.
"We've been discovered, run!!"
The rich businessman and the old man scattered as birds and beasts, but how did they outrun these thugs, but after a while, they were caught.
The leader of a mob said in a cold tone: "The reason why there is a financial crisis in Indonesia and why the Indonesian people are living in such a difficult way is caused by these Chinese! These Chinese know how to do business, they control most of Indonesia's economy, and they are powerful on weekdays, exploiting us, and making us do the dirtiest and most tiring work!"
"Guys, don't kill us, we're all good people!"
"You can all take the money we have, just save you and don't kill us!"
The rich old man begged for mercy.
Several thugs grinned and laughed, very proud, and they were very proud to see that the people who were usually high up were now reduced to their own prisoners.
"Big brother, if I cut them down, I can't get used to them for a long time! After they die, the money on them will naturally be ours!" shouted a thug brother.
"Yes!" the others chimed in.
Seeing the thug raise his machete, the old man of the rich merchant shouted in horror: "Don't!!"
The breeze passed, and there were several more corpses on the shore of the harbor.
Seeing that their eyes have not been closed after they die, I must have regretted it extremely in my heart!
There were two chances to live, but they both gave up, and the Taiwanese ship did not wait until it died......
……
The "May riots" did not last long, only a few days, and the countries around the world were condemning Indonesia, and strong international pressure finally brought Indonesia to a halt. However, although the time has been compensating, it has been extremely serious, resulting in a large number of civilian casualties and huge losses to the economic and social functioning of the Indonesian state. The riots turned into a movement of change, forcing President Suharto, who had been in power for 31 years, to resign, and the Su family collapsed. Since then, Indonesia has experienced a long period of turmoil and sinking.
After all, the rich businessman old man has a bit of status, and after the news of his death came out, it made people sigh and sigh, causing heated discussions.
On the Internet, Chinese mainland netizens feel very happy!
"It's a good death, you really deserve to get on the boat and not get on the boat!"
"That is, we sent a boat to rescue them, and we also picked and choose, saying that we would only go to Taiwan's ship! Hehe, did Taiwan save you?"
Chinese mainland sent thousands of ships and planes this time, and they simply spared no effort to save them, just because the Chinese in Indonesia are also Chinese. ”
"Hmph, if you want me to say, I shouldn't have saved them at all! The Indonesian Chinese look down on our mainland at all for Taiwan, hehe, invite them to get on the boat, just ask the uncle!"
"yes, it's infuriating!"
"The dog bites Lu Dongbin and doesn't know the hearts of good people!"
“……”
Chinese netizens have rebuked the Indonesian Chinese, especially the wealthy businessmen and old men, thinking that they are innocent of death, and no one else is to blame.
Li Zetian also watched everyone's comments on the Internet, and there was also a trace of identification with Chinese netizens in his heart.
China sent a ship, and if you don't get on the ship, you will kill yourself, and it is really no wonder that others are no one. It is not worth it for China to save such people.
"This kind of news is really a scandal!!" Yu Jingqiu also saw the news and couldn't help but sigh.
Li Zetian nodded, "That's right." ”
After a pause, Li Zetian said, "Many Indonesian Chinese came to Indonesia when the Kuomintang retreated from Chinese mainland and are hostile to Chinese mainland! Moreover, in the eyes of many Indonesians, Chinese mainland is very poor, and Taiwan is a developed country.
"In the end, Chinese mainland is not strong enough!"
"If Chinese mainland is very strong, the Indonesian Chinese will not go to Taiwan!"
"If Chinese mainland is very strong, Indonesia will not launch riots against the Chinese!"
"You see that there are Americans in all countries in the world, what country dares to slaughter Americans casually?!"
"However, I believe that the Chinese mainland will soon develop, and the status of the Chinese people in the world will definitely be improved! There will be no more !! like this May riot."
Li Zetian said with emotion.
He is also a Chinese himself, and the strength of Chinese mainland is closely related to him.
Although Li Zetian has American nationality, he is not white in the end, because he is the richest man in the world, and on the surface he looks very beautiful, but in fact he has always been excluded and suppressed by white Americans!
Li Zetian is always one step ahead, always creative, always unprophetic, and his accumulated strength is getting stronger and stronger, until the enemy feels terrifying, powerless and even desperate!
Today, Li Zetian's financial resources are rivaled by the country, and his industries are all over the world. Although he has lived in the United States for a long time, industries outside the United States have already accounted for more than half of Li Zetian's property!
After listening to what Li Zetian said, Yu Jingqiu couldn't help lowering his head and was silent.
The impact of the Chinese exclusion incident in the United States is serious, and she has grown up in the United States since she was a child, and she is deeply touched.
"Well, you're right, the Chinese also have roots! China is strong, we have more status!" Yu Jingqiu paused and said, "No wonder you have invested so much in Chinese mainland!"
Li Zetian nodded and said: "Investing in Chinese mainland is to help China's development; second, it is also to make money! China has a vast land and a population of 1.3 billion, and with such a huge potential market, who doesn't want to take a bite? And I, as a Chinese, have more conditions than Europeans and Americans!"
Li Zetian took a sip of water, looked up at the window, and said in high spirits: "Look, it won't be long before China will develop, and at that time, our investment will increase by dozens or even hundreds of times!!
