Chapter 747: All Enemies Are Paper Tigers (2)

On 10/3/11, in David. Rothschild met Zhang Yang on the third day, the Star Group held an external press conference, officially announced, the Star Group broke through the restrictions of the Star Group in the material, can supply the market in unlimited quantities, in the past, although the Star Group has already broken through this limit, but did not announce to the outside world, second, the Star Group did not launch the Star Battery to all the companies that need batteries, but only with their own cooperation with several manufacturers in the production of batteries.

At the same time, the factory production capacity of the Star Group has not been carried out to the maximum, only about 50% of the production capacity, and about the Star Battery, it has appeared for so many years, the outside world has actually been speculating, because the expansion of the Star Group on the Star Battery is not fast, so many media are speculating whether the production raw materials of the Star Battery are very limited, and now the Star Group directly announced that it will break through this limit, which means that the Star Battery may sweep all the industries in a short period of time.

Electric vehicles will not only develop on electric bicycles, the emergence of electric vehicles, even electric tanks, etc., has been inevitable, and notebooks, MP3, MP4, cameras, video cameras, and even razors, flashlights and other daily necessities that need batteries are bound to change greatly with the intervention of star batteries.

On the second day of the announcement of the Star Group, the shares of several listed subsidiaries of the Star Group began a new round of climbing, although the increase is not large, but now the market value of these subsidiaries under the Star Group has almost reached the limit, and it can still rise. It can be seen how much impact this news has on the Star Group.

In particular, the stock of Star Heavy Industries, which has been producing Star Batteries, rose to the limit on the same day, although the domestic foreign exchange market has been greatly controlled compared with the previous life. However, the price limit has not been canceled. At present, the market value of Star Group has officially reached a market value of nearly 1.7 trillion RMB, which has surpassed Apple Co., Ltd. and officially become one of the subsidiaries with the highest market value under Star Group!

At present, the combined market value of Star Heavy Industries and Apple exceeds 3 trillion RMB. That's about $800 billion! Compared with the good news announced by Star Group, international crude oil prices have fallen again, and they have almost fallen to the possibility of continuing to fall. With the large-scale popularity of star batteries, especially in civilian cars. The demand for crude oil will not be so huge, and if it were not for aviation, as well as the military equipment of various countries still need fuel, I am afraid that the price of fuel will be unimaginably low.

With the announcement of the Star Group, the attention of the world's media was once again focused on the Star Group, but at this time, Zhang Yang did not pay attention to this matter, but let the Star Sky monitor the clues near the Mekong River around the clock. In fact, there are not many events that Zhang Yang remembers in his previous life, many things have been forgotten because of time, and what Zhang Yang can remember at present is aside from the great earthquake that has occurred in Japan. It's the Mekong tragedy.

In his previous life, there was a lot of gossip that there were Thai ** people involved in the Mekong River tragedy, no matter whether this incident was true or not, at least Zhang Yang had the ability to intervene in this matter in this life, and he didn't know it, but since he knew, he couldn't watch it happen.

The memory should be what happened on October 5th, and the satellite positioning system that has spread all over the world is enough to monitor this area 24 hours a day. If it were possible, Zhang Yang would like to tell the border guards over there to get ready now. But this kind of thing can't be said in advance.

At 8:45 a.m. on October 5, Zhang Yang looked at the timely image from the satellite on the computer screen. According to Zhang Yang's request, Xingkong has found two Chinese cargo ships that had an accident, two merchant ships, "Huaping" and "Yuxing 8". According to their current speed, as well as the approximate time of the accident given by Zhang Yang, the location of the accident of the two merchant ships has been calculated.

Looking at the time, there might be an accident in ten minutes at most, Zhang Yang thought about it, or directly picked up the phone in his hand and dialed a number directly. This phone is not a national security, nor a public security, let alone a military phone, but an emergency phone of the newly built strategic command center, because the Pangu system is a product of the Star Group, plus the cooperation between the Star Aerospace Company and the military, so Pangu is also using the Global Positioning System of the Star Group.

Zhang Yang only then has the telephone number of this strategic command center, which is answered 24 hours a day, and the people above also know that the Star Group is still ahead of the Computer Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in terms of computer technology. After the phone was connected, a soldier's voice immediately came from inside: "Hello chief! ”

"Hello, I'm Zhang Yang, just now the main system of the Star Group discovered something through the satellite, a very urgent situation, I will now let the Star Sky transmit the data to Pangu. You'll take care of the rest. Zhang Yang said quickly.

With Zhang Yang's words, the starry sky directly transmitted the images monitored by the latest satellites directly to the big screen of the strategic command center, and when these images and the relevant annotations next to the starry sky were transmitted, the staff officers of the entire strategic command center were busy almost instantly, and several staff officers directly took pictures of the communicator in front of them, and then a communication channel began to directly station the air base on the southeast border.

Although Zhang Yang hung up the phone, he could still see the action here, and at this moment, the other party's ships on the satellite screen had begun to move towards the two merchant ships, but the two merchant ships should obviously have been warned, had stopped and continued to move forward, and tried to make a U-turn.

However, it is obviously too late, at this moment the two merchant ships are near the junction of Myanmar and Thailand, and this is not part of the Chinese border, and at this moment the other party's ships are only 1 kilometer away from the nearest one of the two merchant ships, that is, they can approach the two merchant ships in a few minutes, but the only good news is that there are two fighter jets on routine patrol duty on the nearby border who have just received orders. Directly across the border, it flew rapidly in the direction of the Mekong River.

"Hurricane 1. No. 2, open afterburner. Rush to the scene as fast as possible. A calm male voice came from the communication channel.

"If the other side attacks our ships, I authorize you to carry out autonomous attacks." Although the patrol fighter does not carry a lot of ammunition on it, it should not be too much of a problem to block some ships, but the only regret is that. Because the two fighters were only on a simple routine patrol mission, they only carried machine gun ammunition and two short-range air-to-air combat missiles.

"Hurricane 1 understands!" "Hurricane 2 understands." With the sound of the two pilots, the tail of the two J10 improved fighters quickly erupted with long flames, and the two fighters directly let out a detonation sound and entered a short supersonic flight state.

At this moment, on the Mekong River, two speedboats of bandits with machine guns had approached the two merchant ships and opened fire on them. The merchant ships, which had no defenses, had to stop their ships. At this moment, the Thai police have also received a warning from the Chinese side, and the police's high-speed patrol speedboat is also coming quickly in this direction. Just as the bandits had just boarded the merchant ship, two fighters had already arrived and saw the situation on the river at this moment. One of the fighters turned the nose of the plane and fired its machine guns to attack one of the airbandits' speedboats.

"It's our fighter!" At this moment, those who have not yet been boarded are relatively far behind, and cheers were immediately heard from the ship of Yuxing No. 8, and a speedboat that had just been swept away by fighter jets with machine guns was officially preparing to board the bandits of Yuxing No. 8. Seeing this, another bandit immediately took the crew of the Warpyeong and ran directly to the speedboat.

Because of the presence of hostages, the two fighters had no way to open fire, so they could only watch as the bandit carriers waited for the speedboat to leave quickly. And at this time, because two fighter jets directly and illegally invaded the airspace of three countries. It also had to temporarily return to the ship under diplomatic pressure.

At noon on October 5, the silence of the abduction on the Mekong River was quickly revealed by the media. It's not much different from history, although satellites can monitor the area all the time. But because the Mekong River is lined with dense forests on both sides, it has disappeared from view after the bandits landed.

Zhang Yang was a little annoyed, if he could have told the above about this ten minutes earlier, then the rest of the crew should not have been hijacked. Although seven people have escaped the bandits, the lives of those five people are still a little worrying.

After the Mekong incident, the Chinese Foreign Ministry quickly lodged a solemn protest against Thailand and Myanmar, and if the two countries could not solve the case of the abduction of the Chinese crew, the Chinese side would directly exclude its own special forces to rescue the crew. China's hardline stance caught both Thailand and Myanmar off guard.

It seems that whether a country pays attention to the protection of its own citizens is directly proportional to the country's military strength, and the United States dares to write on its passport that the United States of America is your strong backing no matter where you are, and that is because the United States has a strong military force and can say no to any country in the world.

But if you don't have a strong military force, even if your attitude is tough, it's useless, you can't beat others, who cares if your attitude is tough or not? The Philippines and Vietnam have now died down as China's carrier strike group asserts sovereignty over the Spratlys and forcibly detains Philippine and Vietnamese ships trying to enter the Spratlys.

The two countries are not stupid, in fact, this is nothing more than a test of attitude. Still, Thailand and Myanmar have protested against China's hardline stance, protesting that Chinese fighter jets have entered their borders without permission. On the afternoon of the 5th, in response to the attitude of the two countries, when General Liang answered a reporter's question, when the reporter asked what he thought of the protest of the two countries' so-called fighter jets entering the border without permission, Admiral Liang once again said shocking words.

“…… I didn't want to say anything about this here, but for now, a significant part of the people who kidnapped the Chinese crew were regular Thai soldiers! If the Thai government cannot give our country a satisfactory answer on this matter, and cannot guarantee the safety of our ordinary civilians, then the next time it enters the territory of Thailand, the so-called illegal border crossing will not only be fighter jets! ”

Admiral Liang's attitude can no longer be described as just tough, you must know that he is the defense minister of the republic, and the defense minister of one country has made such a positive and direct response to the diplomatic response of another country, which can almost be equated with the signal of a local war! Moreover, these media reporters are even more sensitive to the fact that General Liang is a regular Thai soldier in his mouth, and these media reporters also know General Liang very well, although the Republic's attitude towards the outside world has been changing over the years.

But it is still very low-key compared to the United States, but now that the defense minister of a country has said such a thing, you can imagine what kind of anger General Liang has become because of this incident! In response to General Liang's reaction, the Thai side was obviously panicked, and immediately said that it would strictly and thoroughly investigate the matter, and mobilized a large number of police officers to find the whereabouts of the Chinese sailors.

On the 6th, Zhang Yang didn't know if this matter would develop as he remembered, but no matter what, it is a good phenomenon that things have developed to this point now, many Chinese people have no human rights when they leave the country, and the strength of a country is undoubtedly manifested through these forces.

Time passed quickly, on October 8, the Thai police announced that they had found the body of a Chinese sailor, and soon the bodies of the next 4 crew members were found, and the bodies of the 5 crew members who were taken away were all recovered by the Thai police in the Mekong River, and this incident immediately aroused the indignation of all the people on the domestic Internet!

Because of General Liang's words at the press conference, many people believe that this matter is inseparable from the Thai side, and they have asked the state to use force against Thailand. It was not too difficult for this kind of hot information on the Internet to spread to Thailand, and the relationship between the two countries suddenly became strained.

Zhang Yang's mood was a little heavy, if he could have notified the strategic command center ten minutes earlier, maybe these five crew members would not have died. After the Thai police announced the discovery of the bodies of all the hijacked crew members, Zhang Yang asked Chen Xiaowei to announce to the public as soon as possible that he would express his condolences to the families of the five crew members, and on behalf of all businessmen of all sizes in China, donated 1 billion RMB to set up a foundation and offer a reward for the arrest of the murderer!

The Star Group behaved like throwing a spark in a stream of gasoline, and all the media became a little frenetic.

“…… I am sad, although our country is strong, but our citizens in the construction of other countries, will always encounter such and such things, in the past years, Chinese citizens killed abroad is a shocking number, for this reason, I today on behalf of all the shareholders of the Star Group, I am willing to donate 1 billion RMB every year to establish a Chinese businessmen mutual aid organization, all those foreigners who have caused harm to the Chinese, but for various reasons have not been tried, We're all going to put a bounty on them! No matter which country's police, soldiers, or even some mercenaries, as long as these murderers can be brought to justice, the Star Group is willing to give them enough payment! This is what Zhang Yang said when the Star Group announced the establishment of a mutual aid foundation.

The approach of the Star Group has resonated with countless companies with foreign business, and soon dozens of domestic companies with infrastructure construction and other business companies abroad have responded, and have donated to this foundation.
