Chapter 337: A Messy Porridge
The purpose of detaining this woman is very simple, because she is an American. When US citizens are on the island, the Vietnamese warships certainly do not dare to fire their guns rashly, let alone launch a landing operation at will. Secondly, she is a journalist who can publish the situation on the island to the outside media anytime and anywhere. When the eyes of the world see that there are still more than 3,000 indigenous people here, they will not allow the Vietnamese to come up and go on a killing spree. However, there is also a big hidden danger, that is, the U.S. government believes that Hatherine was coerced, and may send Marines to rescue her.
Fighting against the Americans, Liu Weiguo thinks that he has little chance of winning. But in the last century, the Vietnamese fought a war with the Americans, and the Americans were not necessarily allowed to borrow the border. On the other side of the sea is Chinese territory, and the two sides are engaged in a trade war, and there is no room for dΓ©tente. Unless the American warships come around from the Philippine side, there is only one way to parachute into the air.
briefly explained the stakes to Hatherine, and Hatherine immediately agreed to Liu Weiguo's request. Being a press spokesman, being able to survive and see everything on the island up close was a surprise for Hatherine. If you don't cooperate with Liu Weiguo's request, the ending will be death, as long as you are not stupid, I believe you will choose the former.
However, Liu Weiguo still warned Hatherine very seriously not to try to * anyone on the island. Otherwise, she will be greeted by a hot bullet. Hatherine subconsciously covered her key parts with her hands, but everyone walked away with straight faces, and no one looked at her. As for the corpse of the native, it was directly buried by Ding Er's digging pit. This native has always wanted to escape from Hongdao, and Liu Weiguo has already written it down, otherwise he would not have been so neatly shot at him.
On Red Island there is a radio station, a diesel generator, and stacks of newsprint. Although there is no Internet, it does not prevent Hatherine from spreading the news. At eleven o'clock the next day, Hatherine's long report came out. In the news, she called Liu Weiguo "the liberator of Red Island, who rescued more than 3,000 tribal people who were slaughtered and bullied by various tribes in Vietnam." Although Hong Dao is adjacent to the Vietnamese coastline, it is not Vietnamese territory. The tribesmen of the Red Island have voted unanimously to appear in front of the world as a free territory. β
As soon as the news came out, the Vietnamese government blew up first. The island has always been deserted, and the Vietnamese have built a simple lookout post on it, which has been drawn on maps for many years, so why did it inexplicably declare it a free territory? What's more, a few years ago, the Jihai Municipal Government also sent people to investigate, and there was no one on the island, where did the tribal aborigines pop up?
Vietnam's state television immediately issued a statement rejecting the "acts of the Red Island traitors to split the country" and "their betrayal of the country and the division of the territory are unforgivable, and the Vietnamese military is about to take severe military action to crack down on this criminal act." β
Neighboring countries such as Cambodia and the Philippines watched the excitement and said, "As neighboring countries, we hope that this region will continue to maintain a stable and peaceful state." The spokesman of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, who was robbed of the speech, said crisply: "Since Hongdao is very close to China's waters, in order to ensure that China's sovereignty is not violated, we will always pay close attention to the situation of disputes in this region." β
The Japanese also came to join in the fun, saying that the waters of Southeast Asia are closely related to Japan's economic development, and that we will not allow a shock situation in the region, and that Japan will send the Naval Self-Defense Force to support if the Vietnamese military needs it.
The statement of the Americans is long overdue: "It is reported that Ms. Hatherine, a spokeswoman for the Red Island, is an investigative journalist for the Star in Washington State, USA, and is 24 years old this year. She is a U.S. citizen, and we call on all parties to remain calm and ensure the safety of U.S. citizens. In addition, the whereabouts of our well-known journalist, Mr. Aegis, are unknown, and we ask for the assistance of neighboring countries in the search. β
At the behest of Liu Weiguo, Hatherine immediately announced the news that Aegis had died. However, according to Liu Weiguo's mouth, the cause of Anjis's death was caused by the Vietnamese shelling of shrimp fishing boats, and those* were also laid by the Vietnamese. As the indigenous armed forces on the island, Liu Weiguo only has millet plus rifles, and it is impossible to hurt Mr. Aegis and so on.
They spread rumors, but they brought violent diplomatic fluctuations to many countries. To paraphrase an old Chinese saying, spread rumors with one mouth, refute rumors and break your legs. The United States has always been arrogant, coupled with the pressure brought by the domestic people, and bluntly told the Vietnamese government through a diplomatic spokesman that they should give the US government a reasonable explanation within three days, otherwise the two countries are about to face the most serious crisis of confidence since the Vietnam War.
The Vietnamese did not buy it, and immediately accused the United States of being a hegemonist ideologist and completely disrespecting the truth, and tried to use this as an excuse to repeat the aggression of the past.
The surrounding countries watched them fight with pleasure and ordered the military to increase the state of alert along the border. As soon as the war starts, missiles will fly indiscriminately, and it will be almost impossible to detect the other side's movements in advance.
Hatherine relayed the chaos outside to Liu Weiguo, and then said worriedly: "Sir, if we cause a war, then we will be sinners all over the world. β
Liu Weiguo said expressionlessly: "Madam, if there is a piece of meat and bone in front of you, and the two dogs do not let each other fight each other, and they fight to the death, should you blame the bone for being too delicious, or blame the dog for being too greedy?" β
Hetherine was speechless and had to go home. Going back and interviewing the local indigenous tribes, the tribesmen told Hatherine in half-baked English that these Asians were their cousins, and that when they came to Red Island, they cared for them, opened roads, renovated houses, and even planned to build several primary schools and hospitals. Therefore, they are grateful to these soldiers from the bottom of their hearts and are willing to support them forever to become the guardians of Red Island.
The Vietnamese never imagined that things would suddenly turn out like this. The military bigwigs regretted it, blaming themselves for not striking first, and razing Hongdao to the ground with a heavy artillery, and there would not be so many bad things. However, before that, according to geologists at several key universities in Vietnam, there were signs of intense geological activity in the waters near Hongdao, and it was uncertain when a major earthquake or tsunami would occur, and it could even cause a volcanic eruption in the strait.
Because of this, the Vietnamese sent many people to reconnoiter the vicinity first, and did not decisively use force. As a result, he accidentally lost all the games, and the eyes of the whole world turned to this. If it is a barren land in Africa, there is nothing wrong with being tough, and not too many people pay attention anyway. However, the sea area east of Vietnam is different, with China on one side and the Philippines and Malaysia on the other, which everyone wants to bite, and if one is not handled well, it may cause a serious economic blockade, which is an unacceptable loss for Vietnam, which is seeking rapid development.
Liu Weiguo didn't care about this, and Cheng Liping didn't care about either, all his energy was on the diamonds that were transported. Only by processing them can Kang Yihui, the old fox, willingly take out real money. And when the real money is in hand, you can buy a large amount of military supplies. Without the ability to protect itself, let alone a diamond mine, even if it is given to a giant country, it will be taken by others at any time.
Asked Professor Huang from the University of Science and Technology to come out, and met Xu Jinsheng again, and several people found another secret place and transported all the diamonds over. Cheng Liping didn't hide it from the Xu family, and he couldn't hide it anyway, after all, the shipment still needs to rely on Xu Jinsheng's sales context. As for Xu Junlin, he is just a rich second generation who secretly uses small means to try to get more wealth.
However, Li Ping also vaguely clicked Xu Jinsheng, suggesting that he should take care of his son, it doesn't matter whose idea he beats, don't beat his own idea. Otherwise, the money will be caught, but the life will be gone, and it will be too unprofitable.
Xu Jinsheng smiled and said, "Mr. Cheng, you can rest assured." Junlin went to the mainland and left some time ago. β
asked Xu Jingwen again, and Xu Jingwen said unceremoniously: "That's right, I drove it away." β
Cheng Liping was surprised: "Drive away? β
Xu Jingwen said: "Of course you have to drive away." He smashed the plate of flour in the distance, but I lost the most money, who didn't drive him. β
Cheng Liping shrugged and didn't answer. Xu Jingwen asked rhetorically: "Listen to my father, you got another batch of diamonds?" Hey, where did you get all these things, why are they all high-quality aqua blue diamonds? β
Cheng Liping said with a smile: "Trade secrets, partners are not allowed to say." But don't worry, this time you are allowed to pick any one. β
Xu Jingwen was overjoyed: "This is what you said, don't regret it." β
Cheng Liping said: "Of course. β
Professor Huang asked for leave from the University of Science and Technology, found a few professional assistants, and concentrated on staying in the newly built laboratory. In the last cooperation, he earned a salary for 20 years, and this time there are more goods and larger quantities, and the treatment given by Mr. Cheng must be more satisfactory. Working overtime every day, even Xu Jinsheng couldn't stand it, and persuaded him to pay more attention to rest, and there would be more busy days in the future.
Professor Huang said: "After 100 years, I will have time to rest. β
Xu Jinsheng was dumbfounded, shook his head helplessly and left.
After the batch of diamonds was processed, Cheng Liping took videos and photos. After Kang Yihui looked at it, Cheng Liping said with a smile: "Mr. Kang, you only have one day to think about it. If you agree, I hope to see your deposit soon. If we don't agree, we sign a contract with an Israeli company. You know, diamonds are not just jewelry, they can also be used in a lot of cutting-edge industries. β
Kang Yihui nodded without moving, and Cheng Liping turned around and left. Kang Yihui originally thought that Cheng Liping was using the method of agitation, but when he turned back to Xu Jinsheng and asked, Xu Jinsheng said that Mr. Cheng was not fooling, and there was indeed a foreign businessman looking for him, and they were all blocked in his office. If you don't believe me, you can go to Yau Ma Tei.
Billions of dollars, Kang Yihui naturally couldn't take it lightly, so he asked the driver to prepare the car and went to Cheng Liping's LC Group Hong Kong office to have a look. Cheng Liping's company didn't enter the door, but sat in the opposite company for more than half an hour. At ten o'clock in the evening, Kang Yihui sent a text message to Cheng Liping, with only two words: account.
