Chapter 1166: Treasure Hunting

Belliway's work was not just about raising her personal prestige, but a look at the road map she had traveled through Belize and a comparison of Hongtao's map of building power plants, transmission lines and roads along the Belize coast showed striking similarities. Whether it is the construction of a road or a hypothetical transmission line, there is inevitably a problem, that is, demolition!

All the villages and farmland on this yellow line have to be demolished, some places can be bypassed, and in some places the cost of bypassing is too high, much higher than the demolition of villages, so they have to be demolished. Although Hong Tao has not personally engaged in demolition work abroad, he feels that no matter what country he is in, it is always an unpleasant thing to demolish other people's homes, even if it is a broken thatched house village like the Simba people, if you go to demolish it, people will play with you. This matter can sometimes not be solved by money alone, but it can be solved by force alone, but it is too disgraceful, so Bailivi is preparing for the future demolition work. When the time comes, a woman with good intentions and who has helped everyone should come to talk to everyone about the issue of demolition compensation, and it should be much easier to talk.

Then someone asked, you have so much money, how can you use it to smash it? Why do you use all the money to run away from the villagers who don't want to move out? In addition, you can let the Belize government be the bad guy. You really can't do that, there is a rough rule for everything, and if you go beyond the rules too much, it's not necessarily a good thing. If Hong Tao smashes a demolition project with money, what will happen to the next village? Do you smash it or not? Okay, Hong Tao has a lot of money and can smash all the coastal areas, so what should he do if he goes inland for demolition and relocation in the future?

The Belize government is not all fools, even if they have to be the thugs of the pyramid group. But don't forget, there are also the opposition. This kind of thing is the most vulnerable to being attacked by political opponents. When the time comes, the opposition parties will certainly associate these things done by the ruling party with the pyramid bloc, and then hype them up. Instead, the pyramid group has been passive. So the dog leg is not always easy to use, sometimes you need them, sometimes you have to leave them behind, and you have to do what you should do yourself.

When the time comes, the new regulations will be promulgated, and anyway, at that time, the pyramid group will also gain a dominant position in Belize, and it is not a matter of saying what it is! This is not called governing the country, nor is it running a company, but playing hooligan. Political hooligans.

Hong Tao not only wants this country, but also wants a test field that can realize his ideals. If you start playing hooligan immediately after you get this piece of land, then why do you need to put so much effort into using this field? Is there still a lack of such a government in the world that changes its rules to play hooligans every day? Has Hong Tao never seen this kind of hooligan rule? There is so much money that there is no place to spend it, so he has to try the taste of playing hooligan himself? Isn't this a pervert!

Hong Tao is not a pervert, so he has to make the rules from the beginning, as long as it is a rule, no one can easily violate it, otherwise it is useless to ask for this rule. Compensation must be given. You must also give enough, but you will not give a penny of money beyond the compensation. When the time comes, we must have a good talk first, and if we can't talk about it, Bellevi will come forward to influence me. If you don't have a good probation, you can only play Xiao Wu and Sergei. It's not about bullying, it's about cleaning up in advance those who don't want to, don't want to, can't follow the rules. Because now the person who is qualified to design the rules is Hong Tao, and the rules have changed. Then the others have to adapt, and those who can't adapt endure it. What you can't bear will be cleared.

According to the current construction period, the new airport will be completed in November, and the big pyramid will be a little more troublesome, and the final interior decoration work will be completed early next year. However, the Great Pyramid was renovated from top to bottom, and it is estimated that by December, floors above 20 floors and some elevators will be available. De Belvier Shipping Company, Voice of the Americas Media Group, several departments of the Pyramid Group, and the headquarters of the Helios Cult can all be officially settled.

The construction team that had previously built the power plant and the airport is now moving to the next area where work needs to begin, first opening up work areas in the local area, and when the Christmas and New Year holidays are over, the new power plant, roads, and transmission lines can be started in sections. Build those areas that don't need to be demolished first, and leave the nail households behind, even if it's a bit of a waste of time and money, you can only make do with it first, and wait until the general election is over and Belizean politics is completely stabilized.

"Oh, it's not interesting to stay like this, what kind of new stuff do you want to do? Help me think about it......" The Chinese side has not replied, Belize's construction is proceeding step by step, as long as the funds are in place, and there is Roman and they are watching, there is no need for Hong Tao to worry. The follow-up plan has been studied several times, and all of them have been formulated, Hong Tao is tired of playing red clay figurines in the pyramid all day long, and he begins to wonder what there is to play again, he can't be idle.

"Poseidon is going to launch its first test rocket after Christmas, and it is expected to be located in the equatorial waters south of Pearl Harbor, do you want to see it?" Singh is Hong Tao's human calendar, and she can remember what is expected in the next six months.

"Don't go! and don't let me command, what's there to see with a big firework!" Hong Tao simply rejected the proposal. The launch of the launch vehicle is still experimental, and there is really nothing to see, the main thing is not to let yourself participate, and it is not interesting to run tens of thousands of kilometers to watch the launch scene for tens of seconds.

"There's a party ...... in Los Angeles next week," Singh suggested.

"No, it's too substandard!" Hong Tao vetoed again before Singh could finish speaking. Those Hollywood stars are too imaginative to play anything new, and they have little interest in them.

"The crew of "2012" will also come to shoot on location at the beginning of next month, why don't you become a role actor? "Singh can only continue to recommend.

"I'm acting every day, I'm so tired...... And I promised the director not to interfere with his actors' arrangements, and remember to remind me to hold a reception banquet for them when the time comes. Hong Tao doesn't have much hope for this movie, before those Jewish consortia are settled, no matter how well you shoot, the screening schedule will not be scheduled to prime time, this is inevitable, not only I understand, but even the director and actors also understand. If it weren't for the contract I signed with them before, they would have quit a long time ago.

"Steve Jobs said thank you for the email you sent him, and if you have time, he wants to invite you to Apple. Singh is also helpless, now this secretary is becoming more and more difficult, mainly because this boss is getting more and more troublesome.

"Don't go...... I've talked about it in the emails that should be talked to him, I am not the same kind of person as him, and there is nothing to talk about when we meet, so let him have the time to come to the island for a vacation. In Hong Tao's email to Qiao's gangmaster, he roughly stated his vision for the future Internet mobile phone in his own words, no matter what Apple and Qiao's helpmaster think of this email, he has nothing to talk about with them anyway. 5% of Apple's shares have been obtained, and they are still talking about it! A group of stingy people, originally thought they could give about 10%.

“…… Do you want to go treasure hunting? You've made me remember this three times, and you've planned it three times since the beginning of the year, do you want to go or not?"

"Oh...... That's a good idea! I always told others that I wanted to explore treasures, but I never went there once, and I didn't get any gains, so of course people didn't believe it. That's right, let's go treasure hunting, you help me find a team with experience in this field, buy the necessary equipment, and get ready to go! This matter must be shouted with great fanfare, the more people who know about it, the better, and then call Levin and ask, and say that I invited him to the ship for a vacation. This time, Hong Tao did not veto Singh's suggestion, although there is nothing too attractive about going to explore the treasure, but compared with other things, it can still attract a little attention from Hong Tao. Not only can you attract your own attention, but you can also confuse the attention of others, especially Levin's old spy, killing two birds with one stone.

Treasure hunting under the sea may sound amazing or ridiculous to Chinese ears, but in Europe and the United States, this industry has been around for a long time. Yes, it is an industry, a company or an individual that can be registered, and is protected by the laws of various countries as well as international law.

According to the provisions of the International Convention on the Law of the Sea, both companies and individuals can use legal means to salvage items that do not have a clear owner in the territorial sea or high seas of various countries. After the salvage is made, if it is on the high seas, 90% of the salvaged items belong to the salvage person, and 10% belong to the country to which the goods originally belonged. If it is salvaged in the country's territorial waters, it must also comply with the different laws and regulations of each country, for example, the United Kingdom stipulates that 80% of the items recovered in its territorial waters belong to the salvage person and 20% to the state. Each state in the U.S. has its own rules, and the benefits for salvage operators are about 70 to 80 percent.

Of course, there are some countries that do not allow individuals to carry out this kind of salvage activities, such as China, whether you do it intentionally or not, as long as it is within China's territorial waters or territory, all the items salvaged and excavated belong to 100% of the government. Therefore, there is basically no treasure hunter industry in China, but another industry has been born, that is, poachers. It can be seen from this that as long as there is a matter of interest, it cannot be blocked by relying on unreasonable rules. Since such poachers do not need to carry out any legal registration, they have a greater degree of destruction of cultural relics, which is almost destructive, and sometimes in order to eliminate the traces of illegal excavation, it is impossible to destroy them.
