Chapter 922 - Still Too Weak!
readx;
It seems that something more troublesome has happened..."Seeing Ye Kai frowning and going upstairs, Tian Qing said to his sister-in-law Xu Zhitong. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoββ
"The mayor of a city, there will definitely be a lot of trivial work." Xu Zhitong subconsciously replied that in her heart now, she is very interested in whether she can go to Pearl TV for an internship:
Although Ye Kai just said that there is no problem with this matter, but without official notice, Xu Zhitong always feels that it is similar to a dream, and she doesn't know if she can get her wish.
After all, entering a heavyweight TV station like Pearl TV is of great significance to a newcomer like her.
Tian Qing was a little curious about what happened to Ye Kai, but it seemed that it should be a sensitive matter, otherwise, Ye Kai would not have avoided them and went upstairs.
"Sister-in-law, if I go to Mingzhutai for an internship, you don't have to work so hard, you come here every day to accompany me," Xu Zhitong suddenly said to Tian Qing.
"Oh, yes." Tian Qing nodded, "There is a little feeling of loss in my heart.
Why did he suddenly feel like this, Tian Qing felt that something was not quite right, this was the same as the signs of thought, and it should be dragged out in time. ββ
Ye Kai went upstairs and listened to the phone and Zhong Lishu explained the situation again, only then did he understand what was going on.
The East China Shen Yun Base has expanded its business scope a lot, and now it has many small companies registered, including some overseas subsidiaries, to carry out the operation of various projects
One of the freighters that had an accident this time was the "Enterprising", a freighter belonging to Fengyun Ocean Freight Company, a subsidiary of East China Shen Yun Base, with a tonnage of about 10,000 tons, but it was registered in Singapore.
Ten days later, the "Enterprising" left the port to deliver a batch of hardware components and daily necessities to the Middle East, but the news came back today that it had encountered interception by the Americans in the Persian Gulf and had anchored at sea.
When a ship breaks anchor at sea, the amount of water and oil scales consumed every day is very large, and if the problem cannot be solved in a short time, I am afraid that it will be dangerous.
Looking at the attitude of the Americans, I am afraid that this problem will not be solved in the short term.
For the East China Shen Yun base, it is impossible not to think carefully for their subordinates, so they hope to let the "Enterprising" get out of the monitoring of the Americans as soon as possible, smoothly dock to the port to unload, and then return home. ββ
"Are Americans crazy?" Ye Kai felt a little surprised:
"The Americans say that our ships are suspected of transporting prohibited weapons and do not allow us to enter the target ports through the Persian Gulf." Zhong Lihuan explained on the phone.
"Is there anything like this on our ship?" Ye Kai is very concerned about this issue.
"If the screw is a prohibited weapon, it's hard to say." Zhong Lishu replied.
The Americans have always been relatively arrogant, especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union, as the only superpower in the world, they are naturally arrogant and arrogant, and they dare to clean up whoever they want, and they are unscrupulous.
Considering that the Middle East is basically under the siege of the Americans now, Ye Kai can't think of any good way to solve the problem for a while.
However, this matter must always be solved, otherwise, people's hearts will be uncertain, which is not conducive to team building:
Ye Kai scratched his head, and suddenly remembered something, so he said, "You wait, I'll understand the situation first." βββ
He hung up the phone and dialed Uncle Li.
Vaguely, he seemed to remember something, and at this time, it seemed that a far-reaching thing had happened in the world, the Galaxy incident.
"Uncle Li, has there been a cargo ship called the Galaxy recently, which has been blocked by the Americans in the Middle East?" As soon as Ye Kai came up, he asked Uncle Li directly.
"How does the nose know?" When Uncle Li heard this, he immediately asked in surprise.
"Sure enough!" When Ye Kai heard it, he understood how it was halfway back.
In fact, it was not only the "Galaxy" and the "Enterprising" that were besieged at this time, "all the large cargo ships from the mainland were basically blocked at sea."
The "Yinhe" was originally a container ship owned by COSCO, carrying more than 600 containers and sailing to the Middle East, and is expected to arrive at the port of Dubai in the Persian Gulf in early August to unload its cargo, and then go to the ports of Dammam and Kuwait in Saudi Arabia.
However, the day before yesterday, the Americans, on the pretext of obtaining intelligence, accused the "Yinhe" freighter of being carrying two types of raw scales for the manufacture of chemical weapons, thiodiglycol and thiocool chlorine, and was heading for Bandar Abbas, Iran:
U.S. officials also claimed that the U.S. government demanded that the mainland take immediate measures to stop the export, and threatened to impose sanctions on the mainland. ββ
In their negotiations with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Americans went so far as to demand that the "Yinhe" freighter return to the place of departure, or that the Americans board the ship to inspect the cargo, or simply stay at a certain place and wait for it to leave. Uncle Li said, "The most excessive thing is that the United States also disseminated its erroneous information to the country where the cargo ship planned to dock, and accordingly asked the Crying Mosquito Guozong to prevent the cargo ship from entering the port to unload its cargo according to the calculation." β
"How's Mujing going?" Ye Kai asked.
"In a stalemate, the Galaxy is adrift at sea." Uncle Li replied, "Why did you suddenly know about this?" The matter was not reported in China, and the media did not know about it. β
"Oh, one of our ships has also suffered from the pond fish......" Ye Kai said, and then sighed and said, "It seems that the Americans want to completely cut off our shipping route to the Middle East this time, if it weren't for that, they wouldn't have done such a thing." β
In January of this year, Clinton was inaugurated as president of the United States.
After he came to power, he openly announced that he would take the promotion of human rights on the mainland and the restriction of arms proliferation as the center of his China policy, and use the most-favored-nation status as a means of exerting pressure on the mainland. ββ
To that end, the Clinton administration established a Center for the Prevention of Arms Proliferation, which is composed of officials from the CIA, military intelligence agencies, and the State Department. As the world's largest arms proliferator, the Americans are free to sell offensive weapons, but they are not allowed to export any weapons to other countries, and even fabricate lies to attack other countries for selling weapons.
As for how the "Galaxy" incident will be resolved, Ye Kai is not worried.
In the hearts of the senior leaders, it can be said that they are comfortable dealing with this and things, and they naturally know how to take advantage of such an opportunity to make the Americans lose face, and they don't need to worry about it.
If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to make the Americans make a fool of themselves in front of the whole world, and then be honest, it will not be easy to take this winter route to the Middle East in the future.
Therefore, if the Americans want to verify, they can agree to it, and the ultimate goal is to solve the matter once and for all.
After all, the current domestic navy is far from being able to compete with the Americans for hegemony on the seas, and a strong conflict is not of much benefit to the mainland.
After Ye Kaizhu called, he began to think about this matter, he remembered that the "Milky Way" incident lasted for almost two months, about a month, and finally it was successfully resolved, for such a long period of time, the impact was too great, Ye Kai couldn't afford to wait.
"What are we going to do?" After Ye Kai sat down, he thought about it, but he didn't find any solution.
He had no choice but to call back first, so that Zhongli Shu could calm down for a while, "There is a reason for this matter, in the purple of the talks between China and the United States, observe it first, and if the situation does not change significantly after a week, then let the freighter return for the time being." β
"You mean to say that this matter has become very troublesome" Zhong Liting couldn't be happy when she heard the news.
"It has risen to the level of struggle between countries, so it is naturally a very troublesome thing......" Ye Kai replied with a wry smile
comforted Zhong Lishu a few more words, and Ye Kai's mood was also relatively depressed.
If the country is not strong, the confidence to speak is insufficient.
If the navy is strong enough to have a few aircraft carriers to the Persian Gulf, then all problems do not exist
In this era, everyone has nuclear weapons, but they dare not use them, and they still fight for conventional weapons.
If there is no strong navy and air force, international competitiveness is still scum!
Thinking that although he had obtained a lot of good things from relying on the Soviet Union, these things had not been able to form combat effectiveness until now, Ye Kai couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.
He also knows that in terms of the current domestic economic strength, it is indeed not enough to support the comprehensive construction of the navy and air force.
Although there are many people in China clamoring to give the Americans a little color, and saying that they can say no to the United States, but from a deep-level analysis, such clamor is actually very weak, and anyone can speak, but if there is a war, it is a matter of relying on strength.
Without a strong national defense construction, without a huge investment in a powerful navy and air force, without an aircraft carrier, and without missiles that burn money, what can we do to confront the United States, the only superpower?
As far as the current national defense forces are concerned, it is basically possible to sustain a local war at close range, but if we want to talk about long-distance and over-the-horizon operations, it is indeed beyond our strength, and the naval force is even more of a coastal system, and it is impossible to go out of the country at all.
Even if you go out, you don't have the combat effectiveness to respond, let alone confront other people's aircraft carrier formations, which can only be crushed.
Thinking of these headache problems, Ye Kai's heart was also very uncomfortable, alas, he was still too weak after all!
Now Ye Kai's mind is full of ideas about lack of money, if there is more money, then more things can be done, aircraft carrier formations can be built, sophisticated weapons can also be built, and even in long-range large-scale offensive weapons, it can also compete with the United States.
It's a pity that all of this takes time to accumulate.
As for now, under the weakness, there is only one way to deal with the United States and rogue countries.
