Chapter 438: This Is Going to Fight Daddy!
Rocky deliberately paused, glanced at the eight children in the audience, and said lightly: "There is an uninhabited island 800 nautical miles northeast of Crusoe, named Dragon's Tooth Island, and its owner is owned by Prince Wanke of the Principality of Na'vi, an island nation in the eastern Pacific Ocean. [Full text reading]"
Speaking of this, Rocky paused again, and then said slowly: "The topic of the quarterfinals is that I ask you to buy Dragon's Tooth Island from Wanke within three days. You can use any relationship. There are no semi-finals in this year's Lingtong Cup. Those who successfully purchase Dragon's Tooth Island will receive a direct promotion to the finals. The loser will be drawn by lot to determine the other finalist. ”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.
What kind of format is this?!
Rocky looked at the crowd and said lightly: "There are two points to be examined in this quarterfinals. First, connections, and second, luck. ”
Lodge looked across the room and continued: "Do you really think you have the talent and the hard work to become a scientist like Einstein and Nington? When Einstein was 10 years old, he was guided by medical student Talme to read popular science books and philosophical works, and he became interested in science. During World War II, because Einstein was Jewish and anti-war, Hitra offered a reward of 100,000 marks for Einstein's arrest. Later, with the help of a friend, Einstein managed to escape from Germany. That's where networking comes in. And luck is even more important. The so-called genius is 99 percent hard work and 1 percent luck. But this one percent of luck is indeed certain. If Newton hadn't happened to be hit by an apple, the idea of gravity would have been proposed by someone else. ”
Although everyone knows that Lodge's explanation is far-fetched, it is really impossible to find the words to refute it for a while.
", this is too bad!" Jiang Nan was strongly dissatisfied: "How can a child have the ability to buy an island? It's all about relationships, connections, and to put it bluntly, he's fighting for his father!"
"Who made Guoguo's father incompetent. Chu Li said coldly.
Jiang Nan asked weakly: "What, Guoguo's father, is also a sling?"
"Pretty much. ”
"I'll wipe it!" Jiang Nan was not convinced: "Why can a small sling silk take down Mr. Chu?"
Chu Li glared at Jiang Nan and didn't squeak.
After a while, she couldn't help sighing: "The matter of buying Dragon Tooth Island, Guoguo is basically eliminated. It depends on how lucky the draw is. However, the probability of 1 in 7: Alas, it looks like it's possible to go home early. ”
On the way back, Chu Li and Guoguo thought about it, and there was no sadness or regret, but Jiang Nan was silent all the way.
Back at the seaside villa, Jiang Nan went directly into his room.
I turned on the computer and searched for the situation on Dragon's Tooth Island.
Dragon's Tooth Island is located in the East Pacific and is named after its shape that resembles a dragon's tooth.
Dragon's Tooth Island is about 800 nautical miles from the Kingdom of Cruzoe, and there are no countries within a 500 nautical mile radius.
Although it belongs to the Principality of Na'vi, it is more than 1,000 nautical miles away from the Principality of Na'vi.
Dragon's Tooth Island is an uninhabited island, and the area of the island is not large, about 1 square kilometer.
"Huh?" Jiang Nan's eyes lit up.
Dragon's Tooth Island is a tooth-shaped coral atoll that forms a lagoon about 11 km east and west and 6 km north and south to the north, with a reef gate to the west of the lagoon. The reef gate is about 800 meters long and 90 meters wide, and the deep water reaches 100 meters upwards and can pass through large warships.
To Jiangnan's surprise, the water in the lagoon on Dragon's Tooth Island was very deep, reaching more than 200 meters.
What does this mean?
This means that this is an extremely rare natural submarine port.
Submarines can be stationed!
And don't you lack a submarine base?
However, excitement is excitement, and it is a bit difficult to get this natural and excellent submarine base.
Not to mention whether the owner of Dragon's Tooth Island has any intention of selling, even if people are ready to sell, it must be an astronomical amount.
Buying an island is much more expensive than buying a submarine.
"Hah, what should I do?"
Jiang Nan secretly thought for a while, and then began to search for information about the Na'vi Principality.
After a few moments, Jiang Nan then went downstairs.
Guoguo and Chu Li were watching TV downstairs, and the two of them seemed to have given up, waiting for the draw three days later.
"Guoguo, if you get Dragon's Tooth Island, can you rent it to Uncle Jiangnan?" Jiang Nan smiled.
Guoguo blinked: "Can I get Dragon's Tooth Island?"
"If you don't try, how do you know?" Jiang Nan smiled and said, "Could it be that Guoguo is a child who gives up so easily?"
"Guoguo is not!"
Jiang Nan touched Guoguo's head: "That's right, this is the Guoguo I know." ”
Chu Li rolled his eyes: "But it's only been more than a month since I came to our house, so don't pretend to be an acquaintance." ”
She paused, and then said, "Do you have any doorways?"
"Not yet. But if we don't try, we'll never have a doorway, right?" said Jiang Nan.
"Then what are you going to do?" Chu Li said again.
Jiang Nan thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's go to the Duchy of Namei first." The other 7 children flew directly to the Principality of Naby after the briefing session. ”
Chu Li groaned slightly, glanced at Jiang Nan, and said in his heart: "Anyway, it's his obligation." ”
Then nodded.
Afterwards, Chu Li packed his luggage and the three of them came to the airport together.
However, it was told that there were no direct flights to the Principality of Na'vi.
There was no way, Jiangnan had to charter a plane at a high price.
The whole thing is Gangnam running.
Chu Li was also at ease.
"Anyway, this level is not a test for the little players, but a test for the father. ”
On the way to the Principality of Na'vi, Jiangnan has been thinking about the information about the Principality of Na'vi that he has searched from the Internet.
Like the Kingdom of Cruzoe, the Duchy of Na'vi is an island nation with a constitutional monarchy.
The difference is that the Principality of Na'vi is very small, the area of all the islands in the territory combined is less than 100 square kilometers, the capital is less than 30 square kilometers, and the total population of the country is less than 1 million.
Economically, the Duchy of Na'vi is 108,000 miles behind the Kingdom of Crusoe and belongs to a third world country.
The difference is that although the Kingdom of Crusoe is also a constitutional monarchy, the power of the king is completely hollowed out. However, the prince of the Duchy of Na'vi is still the supreme ruler of Na'vi and has absolute power.
However, although Na'vi has little political, military, and economic influence in the world, it is a good object for major powers.
That's because the Duchy of Na'vi is geographically important.
As we all know, the eastern Pacific Ocean is vast, but there are few countries. In the entire vast sea, except for Hawaii, which is the United States imperialism, there are only a few countries such as the Kingdom of Crusoe and the Principality of Na'vi.
Now, the Duchy of Na'vi has a military base of the US imperialists, and the object of defense is naturally the Crusoe Kingdom, which is closest to the Duchy of Na'vi.
Jiangnan secretly thought a little but still didn't find any breakthrough.
Sighing, and about to give up thinking for a while, Jiangnan's gaze suddenly stopped on a copy of the "Entertainment Weekly" of the Principality of Na'vi on the table.
To be precise, his attention was drawn to the woman on the cover of Entertainment Weekly.
