In the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu used "Breaking the Cauldron and Sinking the Boat" to inspire the three armies, and finally won the victory in the Battle of Julu, winning Xiang Yu the reputation of "Overlord of Western Chu".
In the 21st century, many CBA members of the Republic of China have the opportunity to go to the United States to join the NBA and show their talent to the world, but there are few achievements, and there are many reasons for this, one of which cannot be ignored, probably because CBA players can return to the CBA to continue to dominate even if they can't get along in the NBA, which is fundamentally different from those helpless black players in the slums.
The same is true of the Panamanian government, which may still fall out with the Colombian government in a few decades without external intervention, as it has done in the past, but that is by no means now.
This fire burned not only a conspiracy, but also trust between the governments of Colombia and Panama.
The day after the fire, which resulted in the death of all eight Colombian government officials and their entourage of the joint working group except Martínez Silva, and the bodies of six hotel workers were found at the scene, the day after the incident, no one paid attention to the Panamanian workers who were killed in the clashes at the Panamanian train station, and all eyes were on Bogotá to wait for the Colombian government's response.
"The Colombian government has announced that it will thoroughly investigate the matter and that the Panamanian government is being held accountable, and our ambassador is in trouble." In Battery Park, New York, Rockefeller watched the day's Time magazine with great joy.
Rockefeller bought the second of the "Four Brothers of Fort", as the headquarters of Standard Oil, next to the headquarters of the Horse Group, and like Li Mu's office, Rockefeller's office is also on the top floor of the "Standard Building", occupying a whole floor.
As a successful businessman, Rockefeller's life is not luxurious, and it can even be said to be quite low-key, but this statement is only relative to Rockefeller's wealth, the president's office must have what the president's office should look like, Rockefeller's office has a huge wine cabinet, and there is also a golf course, which is one of Rockefeller's few hobbies.
When he has nothing to do, Li Mu likes to sit in Rockefeller's office, and Grockefeller brags about it together, and many times, business is blown out like this.
The fire in Panama City has directly pushed Martínez Silva into a very awkward position, as the only surviving government official on the Colombian side of the joint working group, the explanation given by Martínez Silva is not convincing in any way, it is said that the Colombian government has asked Martínez Silva to return to Bogotá to end the investigation, and Martínez Silva has not yet made a decision.
"If a donkey wants to be lazy, the best thing to do is to whip it on the butt." Li Mu knew that Martinez Silva was in trouble, and it was a big trouble, but Li Mu didn't intend to help, and it was almost as good as adding fuel to the fire.
"If Panama can make up its mind because of this, then we might be able to control a country, which is crazy..."Rockefeller couldn't help but shudder a little when he thought about the bright future.
As the richest man in the United States and the richest man in the world, Rockefeller is only a businessman after all, with his own limitations.
Before that, politics was a game for Rockefeller, as the boss of Standard Oil, Rockefeller had the ability to push the US Senate and House of Representatives to pass something, but could not play a decisive role, so politics was dispensable for Rockefeller, no matter who was in power, he had to use people like Rockefeller as financiers.
The meanings of "gold lord" and "emperor" are definitely different, so Rockefeller has always been very envious of the Steed Group that almost single-handedly covers the sky in Cuba, thinking of the opportunity to control a country, especially a country that controls a transportation artery such as the Panama Canal, Rockefeller almost saw countless dollars flying into his pocket with wings, this scene made Rockefeller intoxicated.
"They have no way back now, whether it's the Panamanian government or Martínez Silva, they can only go according to the script we have set." In Cuba, Li Mu has gained enough experience, so now doing this, Li Mu can be called handy.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ban Chao envoy to the Western Regions, in Shanshan, in one fell swoop to kill the Northern Xiongnu envoys, since then cut off the back road of Shanshanguo, forced Shanshanguo to the Eastern Han Dynasty, since then the achievement of Ban Chao's immortal reputation.
The current Panamanian government is the same, a Colombian government official died in Panama City, even if the Panamanian government did not do it, the Panamanian government has nothing to do with it, so if the Panamanian government is wise, then it will not be long before Martinez Silva has a chance to return to Washington.
"It seems that we have made the right move to set up a Panama company, so what should we do next? Push the Panamanian government to declare war on Bogotá? In this regard, Rockefeller's understanding is obviously not as good as Li Mugao, after all, Rockefeller's old business is to dig for oil, not to subvert state power.
In fact, subversion of state power, although it sounds appalling, but in fact it is not difficult, look at Africa in the 21st century, subversion of state power is like playing a house, and don't imagine how advanced this thing is, think about how Russia took Crimea, does it not need much technical content at all?
What is really needed is actually enough as long as there is strength.
"We don't have to do anything, just wait for the Panamanian government to cede land and sue for peace, we have already given reasons, and we have done enough." What Li Mu has to do is fan the flames everywhere, as for what kind of fire can burn, Li Mu is not worried, cast nets everywhere and focus on fishing, there are always some fires that will burn out of control.
"I suddenly felt the gap between us, you people who are engaged in arms, you are really..." Rockefeller thought for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable adjective to describe Li Mu.
Shameless, bottomless, bold, whimsical, etc., etc., it seems that Li Mu cannot be correctly described, but can only describe Li Mu's characteristics in a certain aspect.
"Stop talking nonsense, how much better can you be than me?" Li Mu doesn't care about Rockefeller's level of attack, in fact, Rockefeller is not much stronger than Li Mu, these two people are really like-minded.
"If the Panamanian government breaks with the Colombian government, will we be able to get back the share that was given to the Colombian government?" Rockefeller is in the eye of money, and three sentences are not far from the bank.
"Don't even think about it, even if we can get our shares back, we have to give them to the Panamanian government, otherwise how can the Panamanian government make up its mind to break with Colombia?" Li Mu's plan has always been a series of sets, one link after another, and by the time others found out, they were already deeply trapped in it and couldn't extricate themselves.
Giving the shares of the canal, which originally belonged to the Colombian government, to the Panamanian government was originally part of Li Mu's plan, and if the Panamanian government was not given a little sweetness and let them see a bright future, the Panamanian government would definitely be undermotivated.
In this regard, Li Mu still has a bottom line, since Li Mu and the members of the canal management committee have received enough benefits, then don't be too greedy, there is no money in this world, and everyone can share some profits if there are benefits.
"That's a pity, hundreds of millions of dollars..."Rockefeller clutched his chest and slowly collapsed on the golf course in his office, as if he had seen countless beautiful photos flying out of his pocket.
It's a tragic story.
Although reluctant, but Rockefeller also had to admit that Li Mu's approach was right, although Li Mu really wanted the Panamanian government to secede from Colombia, although the strength of the Panamanian company is getting stronger and stronger, but Li Mu is an American after all, without obtaining the Panamanian government's "request", Li Mu They have to behave more calmly to prove that the US government has not intervened in this matter, otherwise it will be overstepping.
On the third day of the fire, the Colombian government set up an investigation team in Bogotá to prepare to go to Panama City to thoroughly investigate the matter.
At this time, the Colombian government probably did not realize that the Panamanian government had separated from Bogotá, otherwise the Colombian government would not have launched an investigation into this matter at all, but would have encircled the Panamanian government.
I have to say that the current situation is better than Li Mu expected, so Li Mu's latest instructions to the Panamanian company are to prevent the staff of the investigation team from entering the Isthmus of Panama, and if they can, they can repeat the old tricks.
In the current situation, if almost all the staff of the investigation team were killed again, Bogota would lose all confidence in the Panamanian government, and then it might be the beginning of the Colombian civil war.
In the past few years, Colombia's political ecology has been very bad, and there have been frequent wars in the country, so it is not uncommon for Colombia to fight a civil war, and sometimes even if you don't fight for a few months, you still have itchy hands.
Li Mu and Rockefeller didn't have time to meet this time, there was something wrong with Standard Oil's refinery in Pennsylvania, and Rockefeller had to rush to deal with it, so Li Mu could only ask for "guidance" from the Panamanian government within the scope of his work.
In fact, as a special industry company, the Panamanian company has already attracted a lot of attention, and in late August, when the investigation team was about to arrive in Panama City, Secretary of State William Evatt came to New York and personally visited Li Mu and his Junma Group.
Li Mu met William Evatt in the New York City Government, and compared with the last time they met, William Evatt's face was a little haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and it seemed obvious that he had not had a good time recently.
Having said that up to now, Hayes has been the president for half a year, and it is estimated that Hayes has gradually faced the reality from the complacent ambition when he first took office, so it seems that the relationship between Li Mu and Hayes still has hope of repair.
"Ream, congratulations, you've made big news again..."William Evatt came up with congratulations, but his tone was very unwilling.
"I don't know what you're referring to, Mr. Secretary, but you know that the Stallion Group has news almost every month, so please forgive me for my presumptuousness." Li Mu is quite proud, if you want to talk about the ability to break the news, Li Mu thinks that he is second, and probably no one dares to admit the first.
Li Mu does have this capital, holding a lot of news tools such as "Time Magazine" and "New York Evening News", Li Mu and Junma Group can make the front page of the newspaper almost every few days, which is as simple as a common thing for Li Mu.
"Panama, Panama Canal, Panama Company, and Panama City, I must say that I underestimated your abilities, despite my repeated reminders that you should not be taken lightly." William Evatt touted Li Mu's unique moves, no wonder people can be secretaries of state, there are indeed a few brushes.
"Ha, Panama City, yes, it's very lively right now, it's almost the focus of the whole world, but it has nothing to do with me, if it has anything to do with the Panama Canal Company, then it's also a collective decision of the Canal Management Committee, not the credit of any one person." Li Mu said that he would not take the blame for anything this time, although Li Mu has the strength to not care about the threat of the Colombian government, but Li Mu can't help but care about Washington's suspicion, which is almost inevitable.
"Let's talk about Panama companies, if, I mean if, if the Bogotá investigation team found something in Panama City, then what would Panama do next?" William Evatt really has nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, and it seems that his ambition is not small.
That's for sure, after all, William Evatt is the Secretary of State, and his work is much busier than Li Mu, so William Evatt has to manage his time as much as possible, and try to make every minute count.
"It's hard to say, who knows what the investigation team will find? Hopefully they'll find out the truth, but I don't think there's much hope. Li Muyan was insincere, a little unanswered, and did not want to face William Evatt's question directly.
"Don't be funny, Reem you should know that there are a lot of veterans in the Panamanian company, so there is no need for you to hide it from me on this issue, on the contrary, I think that if we can work together in this matter, then we will definitely be able to maximize our interests." William Evatt saw through the hypocritical nature of Li Mu at a glance, and did not leave Li Mu room for justification at all.
It's understandable to think about it, Panama companies really have too many veterans, and if Washington didn't understand all this, then it wouldn't allow such a freak as Panama to exist at all.
