Gwadar Port, Pakistan, D&F Group Headquarters Building.

The building is built on the west side of the port, overlooking the entire commercial port.

The completion ceremony half a year ago was very grand, not only the Pakistani prime minister personally attended the ceremony to celebrate, but also Saudi Arabia and other countries sent special envoys.

As a sign of respect for D&F, and more importantly, to show his relationship with Wang Dong, Muhammad sent a 100-tonne globe with a diameter of 5 meters and weighing 100 tons of pure gold, which is now placed in the lobby on the first floor of the building.

Not afraid of being stolen?

The thief who dares to come here to steal has not yet been born.

Being able to get this far, Wang Dong felt like a dream.

Three years ago, at the end of the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, Wang Dong's situation could be said to be two heavens of ice and fire.

On the one hand, D&F's prospects are bright, and its performance is very good.

On the other hand, the situation of "Angu" is extremely difficult, especially the shortage of manpower, which makes it impossible to carry out many businesses normally.

Who can blame?

It's not that Yunlong overestimated the strength of the "Angu" company.

At a later conference, Yunlong admitted the problem.

In his words, it's a big step and a pull.

In fact, Wang Dong knew that if he really wanted to be held responsible, he couldn't blame Yunlong, after all, due to the constraints of the situation, there was no better choice.

Yunlong took the initiative to stand up and take responsibility at the high-level meeting, but he didn't want to embarrass Wang Dong.

Why?

The company "Angu" is indeed in big trouble.

The biggest problem is that there are far from enough people.

Before the outbreak of the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, Angu had just over 10,000 regular employees, and about 50,000 temporary employees in Iraq.

What's the difference between the two?

Whether it is a regular employee or a temporary employee, they are actually employees of the "Angu" company, and the basic treatment is the same, but the difference is in the privileges.

To put it simply, regular employees who hold shares in the "Angu" company also have some privileges, such as being able to obtain accident insurance purchased by the company, and can receive dividends every year, provided that the company is profitable, and also has to assume more responsibilities because of the privileges.

In addition, regular employees are generally on a permanent basis.

Temporary employees are equivalent to contract workers, who are paid monthly salaries, do not receive dividends, and may lose their jobs at any time.

However, temporary employees have the opportunity to become full-time employees as long as they perform well.

60,000 people, not enough?

Let's not forget that after the end of the Iraqi civil war, Angu was responsible for the training of the Iraqi Defence Forces and was responsible for the reconstruction of Baghdad.

In the first national elections, Nanigal replaced Razak as Sunni leader.

Actually, Razak did not run for election, yet. Recommend Nanigal as a candidate.

Since then, Iraq's Sunnis have reached a reconciliation agreement with the Shiites, targeted the Kurds in the north, and sent troops to reclaim Kurdish-controlled Kirkuk and Mosul, with which there have been several clashes with the Kurds, almost triggering another civil war.

Then came the reconstruction of Baghdad.

Under the terms of the settlement, Baghdad was divided into two districts, the eastern and western districts, which were controlled by Sunnis and the eastern districts, which were controlled by Shiites.

In fact, Iraq's reunification has been extinguished in name only.

After the baptism of civil war, both Shiites and Sunnis in Iraq have gained a high degree of autonomy, but they have maintained a unified voice in diplomacy.

To that end, the reconstruction of Baghdad is crucial.

Why?

In the eyes of Saudi Arabia and other countries, rebuilding Baghdad is a face-saving project to prove to the world that Sunnis are better suited to run the country.

Rebuilding, what is most needed?

That's right, money.

At that time, Saudi Arabia and other Arab League countries jointly established the "Arab Reconstruction Bank", and Saudi Arabia alone invested $150 billion in funds to provide loans specifically for Iraq's reconstruction.

In addition, Saudi Arabia's royal sovereign fund is providing loan guarantees to businesses involved in reconstruction.

And then what?

It's security and stability.

60,000 is not much to sustain a city of more than 6 million people, not to mention the fact that the city is almost in ruins.

For Muhammad's face-saving project, Wang Dong must give his full support.

Moreover, shortly after the end of the Iraqi civil war, Crown Prince Mohammed became king.

It is not that King Salman died, but that the throne was given to Muhammad, allowing the young prince to seize power years earlier.

It can be said that from any point of view, it is necessary to make a name for itself in Baghdad.

Otherwise, Wang Dong would not have been able to hire 50,000 temporary workers in the area.

Most of these people are responsible for security, and in addition to maintaining law and order, they are also responsible for providing security services to foreign companies and people involved in the reconstruction work.

In any case, Baghdad was not a safe city, especially in the period after the end of the civil war.

When the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War broke out, the problem of manpower shortage became particularly prominent.

To support Pakistan, Wang Dong transferred 4,000 elite personnel from Iraq and hired more temporary workers in Iraq.

It's just that this can only solve the urgent need.

Why?

In Pakistan, 4,000 is not a lot at all.

Although the Pakistani army's performance was extraordinary and did not give Wang Dong much of a chance, the issue became complicated by the armistice talks between India and Pakistan.

This includes the mess that Yunlong took over.

Go to Amritsar for peacekeeping!?

If this matter was not taken over by Yunlong, Wang Dong would definitely tear up the contract, because with the scale of the "Angu" company, it would not be completed at all.

Baghdad has only 6 million people, while Amrit has more than 10 million.

According to later statistics, at the end of the Fourth Indo-Pakistani War, Amritsar's population reached a staggering 15 million!

What is this concept?

In addition, there is a daily influx of out-of-towners into Amritsar, especially in the western part of India.

Even according to the most optimistic estimates, Amritsar's population will exceed 20 million in a few years, and may even reach 25 million.

If that were the case, Amritsar would become the world's most populous city.

In contrast, there is poor infrastructure and chaos.

By Baghdad standards, Angu would need to deploy at least 150,000 men in Amritsar to effectively maintain order in the city.

Are there so many people?

Even if there were, would it be able to afford so many employees?

You know, even temporary employees have an annual salary of more than $50,000, which is equivalent to spending tens of billions of dollars in salary every year.

Where to make so much money?
