Chapter 771: Kill it

……

“… Ms. Rebecca Mark, CEO of Unocal, said: "Every permanent employee of Unocal is the most valuable asset of the company and an inseparable part of the company. So they decided to negotiate with the pirates with the help of the U.S. Embassy in Indonesia, as well as the Indonesian police and military, and to rescue all the hostages as much as possible... CNBC has you covered!"

"I really want to see if the expression on Bruce Guo's face is still as smug as before!"

Looking at the report on the TV news, Old Schiff said happily.

William Schiff raised his eyebrows slightly, "Father, Unocal stock price has basically bottomed out, can we close the position now?"

"What is the share price of Unocal now?"

"$61.3!"

"How much can we earn by closing the position?"

"After tax deductions, you can make about $1.7 billion. William Schiff gave a brief estimate.

"$1.7 billion. The top of the family fund has a net return for a year. ”

The elder Schiff was particularly pleased with this result. Both breathed a sigh and made a lot of money.

“… William, now you should understand how much my arrangement has benefited the Schiff family... $17, a huge fortune that only took us a week. In addition, the Black Lion side was able to get a ransom of $200 million, and the whole calculation made us nearly $2 billion in wealth. ”

Seeing his father's complacent appearance, William Schiff sighed in his heart. Things have developed so far, and he no longer persuades his father and Bruce Guo to resolve the conflict, and both sides will release their previous suspicions.

"Father, the black lion also needs money to appease...!"

Old Schiff waved his hand, "Don't worry, I've already told Cole, and the Black Lion can leave five million dollars as their funding!"

"Father, isn't five million dollars too little? After all, the Black Lion has used almost all the personnel in this operation, and there are still six people who have died, so the settling-in allowance and salary should be as generous as possible!"

"How much do you think you should give?"

"At least ten million dollars!"

Old Schiff shook his head after thinking about it, "Too much. The six sacrificed people were each given $400,000 in settling-in allowances, and the people who participated in the operation this time were $30,000 each! For the mercenaries, this price is not low. ”

Just as William Schiff was about to fight for it again, the butler knocked on the door and walked in.

"Sir, young man, Mr. Crum Pandit, CEO of Citigroup, and Mr. Daniel Trotter, President and Chief Operating Officer of ING Group in the Netherlands, are here!"

"These two guys belong to dogs, and our money is still in our pockets, so they followed the smell and came to the door. Old Schiff sneered.

"Haven't Wall Street people always been like that, they're only interested in money!" said William Schiff.

He also doesn't like the greedy bankers on Wall Street.

"Let's go, let's meet these two guys. ”

"Father, if they beat us up for this harvest...?"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by old Shif.

"Don't even think about it! This time they didn't do anything against Unocal, and they still wanted to share the money? How can there be such a cheap thing in the world!"

"If they know about the Black Lion's relationship with us...!"

"How can something be counted without evidence!" said Old Shiv with a sneer, then turned and walked out.

Looking at his father's back, William Schiff thought about it for a while and followed.

……

"Boss, the matter of the Black Skull Pirate Group has been clarified!"

On the phone, Piree Lee said in a calm tone.

"Tell me about it!"

"Yes... As you might expect, the Black Skull Pirates are indeed a Sibei cargo, and they are actually the 'Black Lion Mercenary Band' active in Southern Africa. There are about 200 members, led by former U.S. Navy SEAL retired Special Forces elite Barty Cole, who was expelled from the military after his media exposure for the torture of prisoners in the Gulf War. Later, he joined the Black Lion Mercenary Group...!"

"Wait, you said to join?" Guo Shouyun interrupted, "You mean the 'Black Lion Mercenary Group' has been around for a long time?"

"Yes! The 'Black Lion Mercenary Regiment' appeared around 1960. What started out as one of thousands of small mercenary groups in Africa grew up with ample financial support. At its peak, it was a large mercenary group of 500 people, but later suffered heavy losses in the Angolan civil war, and its personnel were weakened to about 100 people. But in the later period, I don't know why it has not been restored, but has been maintained at about 200 people. Despite this, the Black Lion Mercenary Group has always been one of the most elite mercenary groups in Africa. Although they are not as well-known as EO, Blackwater, and IZO in the global mercenary community, in the eyes of insiders, they are all a pack of bloodthirsty jackals!"

“… As their leader, Barty Cole is known in mercenary circles for his cruelty and murderous appetite, and he once tortured and killed 127 captured soldiers of the southern rebels during a military mission in Sudan, and was called 'Cole the Terror'. ”

I didn't hear a voice from the phone in the middle of the ring, and Pire Lee was just about to open his mouth to test it, when he heard the calm and indifferent voice of the big boss come over.

"I remember the last time there was a black market in Dubai, we bought two 'sunburn missiles'. ”

The Sunburn missile is a supersonic anti-ship missile developed in the former Soviet Union, with a range of 160~250 kilometers, a speed of Mach 2.5, and a warhead weighing 300 kg.

"Yes... However, at the moment we do not have a weapon platform to install these two missiles!"

Anti-ship missiles are incredibly powerful and, of course, not lightweight. A large warship is needed to exert its power. However, warships are sensitive ordnance, and it is difficult to get hold of them without a suitable opportunity. Of course, if you want those rags that are about to be decommissioned, it's simple, but Guo Shouyun can't look down on them, and for a while, he can't get together to start the crew of this warship.

"Since anti-ship missiles can destroy warships, they can naturally also destroy ground targets!"

"Understood, I'll tell Rudy right away and let him do the modification. ”

"I told him about this, your task is to confirm the exact location of the 'Black Lion Mercenary Group's lair, and then destroy it!"

"Boss, in this case, I'm afraid your $200 million will be gone!"

"Don't worry! I'll use a special box for $200 million to make sure your missiles won't destroy it!"

200 million US dollars is not a small amount, and Guo Shouyun is certainly reluctant to burn it to Lord Yan. Moreover, taking $200 million from Unocal, a listed company, to its own internal security forces, is, to some extent, a kind of fake public benefit.

Of course, there are surprises in everything. Therefore, Guo Shouyun is also mentally prepared for all losses. And taking out this black hand that may belong to the 'Schiff family' is far more valuable than 200 million US dollars.
