In addition to the local Indonesian media, there were many international media attending the press conference, and even more international media than local media.

Mainly because the people who can attend the press conference are the big mainstream media.

At the end of the press conference, not long after the reporters attending the meeting transmitted the information back to their respective units, a piece of heavy news spread in the media circle.

Just after 10 o'clock this morning.

That is, while the press conference was still open, an Indonesian Navy warship patrolling the waters off the coast of Banda Aceh was sunk by a missile.

The sunken warship was a Yani-class frigate.

This class of ships was originally a Van Speck-class frigate commissioned by the Royal Netherlands Navy in the mid-60s of the last century, and the total service life has reached 25 years.

After several refits, the class joined the Indonesian Navy in 1986.

It has a full load displacement of 2,835 tons, 8 Harpoon missiles, 2 Mistral anti-aircraft missile launchers, and 1 Otto Melera 76-mm gun.

2 Torto-Ray tubes for one NBO-105C helicopter.

The Indonesian Navy has purchased a total of six ships, all of which have been modernized, making them the largest tonnage and most advanced ships in the Indonesian Navy at present.

And it was a cargo ship that sank the frigate.

According to sources, at 10:05 a.m., a cargo ship was spotted by a patrolling frigate shortly after leaving the port of Banda Aceh.

The frigate asked the cargo ship to stop for inspection, and quickly approached.

Just when the frigate approached less than 8 kilometers from the cargo ship, a missile was suddenly launched from the cargo ship and accurately hit the port side of the frigate.

A violent explosion followed.

In less than ten minutes, the frigate, with a tonnage of nearly 3,000 tons, sank into the sea, and only a few soldiers on board narrowly escaped.

This news suddenly exploded in the entire Indonesian media circle.

If it is true, then the civil war that took place in Aceh is no longer a simple civil war.

Because Aceh is located right at the mouth of the Strait of Malacca.

The range of anti-ship missiles is 50 or 60 kilometers, and the range is as long as 4,500 kilometers, which is enough to cover the entire outlet of the Strait of Malacca.

This would pose a significant threat to the safety of this internationally important waterway.

The media of various countries stationed in Jakarta hurriedly confirmed to the Indonesian Ministry of Defense and Foreign Affairs, but unfortunately did not receive any substantive answers.

But the answer was soon revealed through another avenue.

At 12 noon, the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Aceh Defense Forces, Lonisa?? Guna Tilgar appeared on the TV screen of Banda Aceh TV.

Llonissa claimed that at 10:10 this morning, the Aceh Defense Forces sank an Indonesian warship.

In his speech, Lonisa said that the Indonesian Navy's blockade of the Aceh coastline was ineffective and that the Aceh Defense Force had the ability to sink all warships.

At the same time, he also said that the Acehnese missiles would only be aimed at the Indonesian army, not ordinary merchant ships.

After the speech, a video was shown on television showing a warship burning violently and soldiers jumping into the sea in a panic.

This was accompanied by one small explosion after another.

The whole process was very tragic, especially the picture of the warship tilting and the bow lifted off the water at the end, which was enough to shock anyone.

There is no doubt that the Free Aceh Movement really sank Indonesia's most advanced warship.

This fact has forced everyone to re-examine this anti-government organization, which was founded in 1976 with the goal of Aceh's independence.

They already have the ability to stand up to government forces.

And the major defeat of 'the sinking of the most advanced warship' will certainly cause another major demoralization of the government army, which is already not very high.

Conversely, the failure of secession in Indonesia has been a morale boost.

Especially the Free Aceh Movement.

The group, which already has a large popular base in Aceh, has seen a significant increase in support after two or three months of fighting.

The rapid increase in the membership of the organization is the most striking example.

And this major success will certainly allow the whole of Aceh to continue to move closer to the Free Aceh movement, and truly see them as the hope of national independence.

――――――――――

Wei Xiong looked at the newspaper report and smiled coldly, the Indonesian government obviously found some clues, and even found him.

He was not surprised by this.

As a government, it is not surprising that he can be found behind the scenes through some means and channels, but it should not be certain.

Otherwise, with Suharto's toughness, it would have been announced a long time ago.

As for the actions of the Free Papua Movement in West New Guinea, it was naturally supported by him in terms of funds and weapons.

His request was similar to that of Hassan Diroti.

The difference is that because Hals Diro was in a hurry to return to Finland, he brainwashed Hassan Diro's son, Hals Diro.

This time it was directly to the leader of the 'Free Papua Movement', Adi?? Megawati was brainwashed.

Originally Adi?? After signing the agreement with Wei Xiong, Megawati also wanted to return to Western New Guinea immediately, but Wei Xiong graciously retained her.

In the next half month, Wei Xiong also arranged a blonde beauty for him.

Adi, who has been anti-government all his life?? Megawati has never seen such a blonde beauty, although she is not young, she still sings every night.

Thanks to his hardships over the years, he has developed a good physical strength.

But what he didn't know was that the glass of water he drank before going to bed every night was filled with ingredients, which was the tried and tested psychotropic drug TX3.

After the effects of the drug have taken effect, Wei Xiong will appear in his room.

What followed was naturally a deep hypnosis, and the whole process was due to the fact that it was asleep. Megawati didn't notice it at all.

The reason for this stealth way,

Mainly as the leader of the organization, Adi?? Megawati had to keep in touch with the organization, so Wei Xiong naturally couldn't imprison him.

In Adi?? Megawati in the three months since her return to Western New Guinea.

The other three main leaders of the Free Papua Movement were killed by Adi?? Megawati was secretly sent to Hong Kong for various reasons.

Wei Xiong was not so polite to these three leaders.

As soon as they entered the Bronze Sparrow Villa, they were immediately subdued, and what awaited them next would be about half a month of high-intensity hypnosis.

Until they are completely brainwashed.

It can be seen that Wei Xiong's control over the 'Free Papua Movement' is much stronger than that of the 'Free Aceh Movement'.

But Adi?? Megawati's leadership skills don't seem to be as good as Hassan Diro's.

Because Wei Xiong's support for the two organizations is exactly the same, even the supply of weapons, such as anti-ship missiles to Free Aceh.

Free Papua was likewise gained.

It is mainly used to attack Indonesian Navy ships blockaded in the waters of Aceh and West New Guinea, as well as to carry out precision strikes on some important targets.

But the results achieved by Free Papua are clearly not as good as those of Free Aceh.

Of course, it is not necessarily a question of leadership, but it can also be something else, such as the gap in the mass base of the two organizations.

After all, Aceh has been an independent kingdom since the 16th century.

Until the arrival of European colonizers in the 18th century, Western New Guinea was in a relatively primitive state, with no state.

Then there was the colonial rule that lasted for more than 200 years.

Therefore, the concept of 'independence' is far less strong among Western New Guineans than among the Acehnese, and the popular base is naturally weak.

Straight to the point.

Just as Wei Xiong was reading the newspaper, a baby's cry was heard, and a nurse came out of the nursery in the room.

Holding a small baby in her arms.

Qiu Shuzhen, who was sitting on the hospital bed reading a book, hurriedly stretched out her hand to take it: "It must be hungry." As he spoke, he unfastened his hospital gown with his free hand.

When the baby's cherry mouth latched on to the nipple, it immediately fell silent.

At this moment, Qiu Shuzhen's face is flashing with a maternal brilliance, which is a look that belongs to 'mother' alone.

Three days ago, Qiu Shuzhen became pregnant in October and gave birth to a baby girl for Wei Xiong.

It is worth mentioning that Qiu Shuzhen's birth time is one o'clock at noon, and she is currently the only one of Wei Xiong's women who gives birth during the day.

The baby's name is still taken by Wei Hongdao, named Wei Zishan.

And more than a month ago, Zeng Huaqian also gave birth successfully, it was a baby boy, and her facial features were almost printed in the same mold as Wei Xiong.

Wei Hongdao was named Wei Yingkai.

Perhaps accustomed to it, although Zeng Huaqian and Qiu Shuzhen's production media also reported on it, it did not attract much attention.

Think about Zhao Yazhi's production at the beginning, the grand occasion was unprecedented.

In fact, even Wei Hongdao, Lin Xueli and others are used to it, and they will no longer be as flustered as they were at the beginning, but methodical.

Of course, Tian Ding at home, Wei Hongdao and Lin Xueli are still very happy.

After the nurse handed over the baby to Qiu Shuzhen, she went out in person. Seeing this, Wei Xiong walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, looking at it with relish.

Qiu Shuzhen smiled and said, "What's so beautiful." ”

Wei Xiong looked at the little guy who was sucking joy, smiled slightly, and said, "This little guy actually occupied my exclusive territory. ”

Hearing this, Qiu Shuzhen said angrily: "Is there a father like you?" ”

He stayed with Qiu Shuzhen in the hospital until 3 o'clock in the afternoon before Wei Xiong left, but he did not return to the company, but came to the Qingshan Oil Refinery.

Today is the official groundbreaking ceremony of the Castle Peak Oil Refinery.

Kelon Petroleum invited a number of celebrities from the Hong Kong business community, as well as some executives of the Governor of Hong Kong and the Governor's Office. In addition, there are quite a few media.

The scene is not without excitement.

The whole process, Wei Xiong behaved more like a guest, neither taking the stage to speak nor giving interviews to any reporters.

After the ceremony,

Led by the refinery staff, the guests toured the refinery.

Tsingshan refinery uses the world's most advanced design standards and refining equipment, mainly imported from the United States and Germany.

Some of the equipment is even independently developed by Exxon Chemical, and money can't buy it.

Originally, there were strict regulations on the export of this part of the equipment, but under the operation of Joseph and George W. Bush, it was not too much of a problem.

The area of the refinery is very large.

In a short period of time, the guests could not visit such a large factory area, so they only visited a few relatively important departments.

By 6 p.m., some of the guests had left first.

The rest moved to The Peninsula, including Wei Xiong. Kelon Petroleum prepared a Western-style buffet dinner at The Peninsula Hotel.

As far as Hong Kong is concerned, such an occasion is absolutely top-notch.

In the officialdom, there are a number of high-ranking officials headed by Governor Wilson Wilson, and in the business circles, there are Wei Xiong, Li Ka-shing, Fok Yingdong, Ho Hongsen, etc., all of whom are the top.

None of the others are ordinary characters.

The two brothers, Xiang Huaqiang and Xiang Huasheng, also came, and the Xiang family used to be a veritable underworld family that controlled one of the largest societies in Hong Kong.

But in mainstream society, the Xiang family does not have much status.

Whether in the eyes of ordinary people or in the eyes of those business tycoons, the Xiang family is just a group of mixed associations, and they can't be put on the stage.

To put it bluntly, it is to look down on.

However, with the help of Wei Xiong, and even with direct support, the Xiang family has become one of the few business families in Hong Kong.

At least in terms of assets, it can be ranked in the top five.

And it is rapidly expanding its commercial territory: in the field of film, Yongsheng has become one of the largest film companies after Webster Films;

In the field of high-tech, Xiangshi Electronic Information has developed rapidly.

A mobile phone has just been launched, and the price is much cheaper than the mainstream mobile phones on the market today, such as Motorola and Ericsson.

In addition, the publicity is well done and willing to invest.

As a result, despite still a bit of a gap in performance, it has achieved significant sales in Southeast Asia, especially in Thailand.

In the fourth quarter of last year, sales even surpassed that of Motorola, ranking first.

In the field of real estate, with the support of strong funds, Xiang's real estate has developed unstoppably, and has won several plots of land in recent months.

In the financial sector, Xiang Jia is one of the five major shareholders of United Investment Bank.

According to the current development trend, in the foreseeable next five years, Xiang Jia will truly become one of the largest business families in Hong Kong.

As for why Xiang Huaqiang and Xiang Huasheng came today, the reason is very simple.

All of Xiang Jia's business behaviors are Xiang Huaqiang and Xiang Huasheng, and the others are not directly related to the operation of each company.

After all, the foundation of Xiang's family is not clean.

Soon after the dinner began, Wei Xiong and Wei Yixin walked to a corner by the window, and Wei Xiong could see that Wei Yixin had something to talk to him.

"I heard that Kelon Petroleum is in talks with China Southern Airlines about providing jet fuel?"

As soon as he sat down, Wilson asked with a smile. Wei Xiong also smiled back, not surprised that Wilson would know about it.

Because the negotiations between Kelon Petroleum and China Southern Airlines are no secret.

"That's right, a large part of the jet fuel used by mainland airlines is imported, and I think Hong Kong has a geographical advantage. ”

The more advanced the aircraft, the higher the requirements for jet fuel.

At this stage, some high-standard aviation fuel, mainland petrochemical enterprises are not able to produce it, and this part of the aviation fuel is basically imported.

"That's probably one of the reasons you chose Hong Kong for the refinery. ”

Wei Xiong shrugged his shoulders noncommittally: "I think the construction and commissioning of the refinery is very beneficial to the development of Hong Kong's economy. ”

"Of course. ”

Wilson nodded affirmatively, and then changed the subject: "I wonder what Mr. Wei thinks about the foreign minister's accusations against Hong Kong's tycoons?"

Hearing this, the smile on Wei Xiong's face suddenly became thicker.

He had guessed that Wilson would not come to him just to talk about Kelon Oil's negotiations with China Southern Airlines, and it turned out to be the case.

In fact, this matter is also being discussed in the newspapers of Hong Kong today.

As a government, Indonesia cannot target Hong Kong's rich people for no reason, and there should be some kind of basis. So now here's the problem!

Who is the billionaire accused by the Indonesian government of financing an Indonesian rebel group?

There is a personal speculation on this issue, but no newspaper dares to express its own speculation directly. You must know that this is not an ordinary scandal.

It's an international event, and if you guess randomly, you'll be dead.

"Mr. Governor thinks it's me?"

Wilson hurriedly shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, there is no evidence even from the Indonesians now, is it, I just asked your opinion." ”

"Hehe, this is an Indonesian business, what can I think. ”

Wei Xiong smiled faintly, his smile with obvious disdain. Seeing this, Wei Yixin shrugged his shoulders lightly, he was very aware of Wei Xiong's grievances with the Indonesian government.

"Well, it's true that the Indonesians have nothing to do with us, but Suharto is not a good person. ”

Wei Xiong raised his glass and touched Wei Yixin lightly: "Thank you, Mr. Governor, for reminding me, but I don't think his good days will be too long." ”

"Maybe. ”

With a soft sound of 'ding', the two took a sip of red wine with their own hearts. After chatting for a while, Wei Xiong excused himself and walked away.

It seems that the British intelligence agencies are much stronger than those of Indonesia.

Although he controlled John?? Major But the British government is not a government of the prime minister alone, and needs to be kept in check by other cabinet members.

Not to mention that there is also a parliament on it.

So Wilson may be looking for him tonight on his own behalf, or on the part of a British cabinet member, or on a member of the British Cabinet.

While thinking, Wei Xiong walked out of the hall.

"Ah......h

Just when Wei Xiong was about to turn a corner, a person turned around first, and the other party obviously didn't pay attention and hit him straight up.

With a flicker, the person who hit him bounced straight out.

When it was too late, he quickly reached out and held the other party up, and at the same time saw the face of the woman who hit him.

This is a very beautiful woman, and she is an acquaintance.

"Ah, I'm sorry. ”

Xie Ning, who came back to her senses, hurriedly stood up, she also recognized Wei Xiong, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry Mr. Wei, I was thinking about things just now." ”
