……

The war between Iraq and Iran, which targets each other and neutral tankers entering and leaving each other's ports, began on March 27, 1984. At that time, the Iraqi Air Force used Exocet missiles to attack a Panamanian oil tanker near Iran's Hark Island in the Persian Gulf, and the Iranian Air Force retaliated the next day by attacking a Kuwaiti oil tanker.

Of course, this did not mean that every time a tanker was hit, it was often only damaged or stranded, and it was not until 14 February 1985, when a Liberian oil tanker was sunk by the Iraqi Air Force, that the first instance of a ship being sunk in this ship-raiding battle.

Because Iraq relies heavily on pipelines for its oil exports, and because the Iraqi Air Force was stronger than the Iranian Air Force in the middle and late stages of the Iran-Iraq war, the losses were smaller than Iran's, and Iran expanded its attacks to other Gulf states that supported Iraq.

With the escalation of the ship raid, Kuwait, a major oil exporter, suffered heavy losses, so it applied to the members of the United Nations Security Council for escort protection.

Beginning in June 1987, the U.S. Navy intervened in the Iran-Iraq war on the pretext of escorting Kuwaiti tankers, and the Soviet Union also sent a fleet to the Gulf region.

In this way, Iran and the United States are again pinched in the Persian Gulf. Iran attacked U.S. escort ships in small boats and laid mines in the Persian Gulf to thwart their convoys; In retaliation for Iran's mine-laying and attacks on oil tankers, the U.S. military has launched a number of military operations against Iranian minelayers and militarily significant offshore oil platforms.

It is not difficult to see that Iran's situation is more passive than that of Iraq, so it will be more unscrupulous.

But now it is Iraq that has recklessly picked on a sensational target -- the world's largest oil tanker, the Sea Giant, and sunk it, which is too ruthless in the eyes of Mr. the richest man.

The Iran-Iraq war has brought countless business opportunities, as can be seen by looking at the weapons used by the armies of both sides. If you really want to find out who does not follow the rules, it will only show more and more the darkness of this world.

It would be naΓ―ve to assume that the Sea Giant's venture into the Persian Gulf would be self-defeating – the number of ships entering and leaving the sea every month is only further increasing the value of such business opportunities. Moreover, Iraq and Iran have chosen to target ships that have little hard background registered in small countries or the like.

Besides, the heat of the ship raid is not so high now. Beginning on 27 February 1988, the two sides turned to a campaign of assault on the city - with new missiles taking on frenzied targets, resulting in the destruction of many buildings and the displacement of large numbers of civilians until April, the 21st of last month.

More importantly, in order to bring the Iran-Iraq war to an end as soon as possible, the UN Security Council adopted Resolution 598 on July 20, 1987, calling for an immediate ceasefire between Iran and Iraq – and the next day, Iraq welcomed the UN resolution and decided to suspend attacks on Iranian maritime targets as a sign of good faith.

But now that the Sea Giant has been sunk by Iraq, does Saddam Hussein really think that he is pinching soft persimmons?

If it weren't for the children running around here, the richest man would have to say "You are paralyzed".

After calming down for a while, Tang Huan frowned and said, "Although the Sea Giant is not owned by me personally, I am an important shareholder of the commercial company to which the ship belongs after all. ”

"You have to look at this kind of thing, the Middle East is inherently unpredictable in terms of business opportunities and risks." George W. Bush shrugged his shoulders, "Take the Hunt brothers, who went bankrupt due to the failure of silver futures speculation, their family's oil business in Libya is very enviable, but after Gaddafi came to power, he was hit hard." ”

The Hunter brothers are senior figures in the Republican Party of the United States, and the example of George W. Bush can be said to be handy.

"It is probably for this reason that the Hunt brothers turned to silver futures to gamble on silver futures, and in the end, they even sold their beloved racehorses and ranches to me." Tang Huan seemed to be persuaded to divert his attention, a smile appeared on his face again, and finally he turned around lightly, "However, the practice of this chaotic demon king in Iraq is likely to further affect the interests of more people." ”

"If it's really that unpopular, there will naturally be corresponding countermeasures." George W. Bush said pointedly: "In every general election, candidates have always attached great importance to the issues that their supporters are concerned about. ”

……

After entertaining the Bush Jr. family, Tang Huan planned to leave for London, England, to attend a meeting of the Kuwait Investment Authority, and also to learn about the latest developments in the Persian Gulf from the Kuwaitis. After all, Funan alone is inseparable from high-quality and inexpensive oil.

As for the cellular phone business, Tang Huan didn't plan to wait for Craig McCaw's reply, and the McCaw cellular phone company couldn't make much of a splash anyway. But when the richest man really put it down, he took the initiative to come up again - a moth.

Tang Wenmao's face was ugly and he brought back the latest news: it no longer made sense to meet with Craig McCaw, and the Guy McCaw Cellular Phone Company and AT&T were mixed up.

"As early as 1985, Craig McCaw secretly signed an agreement with the American Telephone and Telegraph Company, which was dismantled mainly for long-distance telephone business, on the condition that the future of the McCaw Cellular Telephone Company was the condition, so that he could obtain a full set of cellular telephone operation network equipment and technology at a favorable price from the other party, and by virtue of its 100 percent compatibility with the American Telephone and Telegraph Company's long-distance telephone network, it had an advantage in the cellular telephone roaming function, and even Datang Mobile Communications Company was inferior by three points."

"It turned out that McCaw's cellular communications network was 100 percent American Telephone and Telegraph Company, and this secret transaction was hidden behind it." Tang Huan couldn't help frowning. "Is this a good card from Craig McCaw?"

In industries such as telecommunications, electricity, water supply, gas supply, and cable television, the reason why it is difficult for latecomers to attack those leaders through simple and repeated network construction is often to fall on the "last mile" of the backbone network connecting end customers.

For example, MCI, which constantly challenged AT&T until the other party was dismantled, suffered from Bell in various places, and Pacific Telecom was more generous.

There is no need to set up a bright line cellular telephone network, and there are not so many opportunities for others to choke the neck of the "last mile", which is also a major reason why Tang Huan likes this industry; However, it is not completely free from the suppression of industry predecessors, after all, the cellular telephone network still has to communicate with the fixed telephone network, especially when it comes to the "roaming" function, the interests involved are more and more complex, and cannot be solved by relying only on advanced technology.

"AT&T is doing a good job, and although it has been deprived of local phone service, cellular phones have the potential to make up for this shortcoming." Tang Huan smiled dumbly, "It's just that if AT&T chooses it this way, it will force Datang Mobile Communications to cooperate with long-distance telephone business competitors such as MCI." ”
