Chapter 660: A Helpless Choice

The vote for the Golden Triangle Federation to join the UN General Assembly went very smoothly, and as expected, the vast majority of countries, including the five permanent members, voted in favor.

Israel in the Middle East voted against, as did countries in South America, such as Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and Belize, but the numbers were too small to affect the bigger picture.

"Boss, what's going on, why are these countries in South America opposed the Golden Triangle Federation joining the UN General Assembly, and we have always had no direct conflict of interest with these countries?" When Wu Beixin reported the good news, he also raised his own questions.

"I know this matter, the Third Pacific Fleet that carried out the Silver Triangle operation is still rampage in the Caribbean region, and there is some friction with these countries, and you also know the style of the mercenary corps, the temper is a little bigger, the means are a little tougher, and it is reasonable for people to be unhappy, these small fish and shrimp can't make waves, you don't need to worry, hurry up and prepare for the founding ceremony." Wu Chen smiled and said.

The Third Fleet of the Pacific Fleet was heading for the sunken ship of the San Jose, and although all the treasures had been salvaged, Wu Chen also had his own arrangements for South America. The fleet needs to remain in the Caribbean region, with the Guantanamo Naval Base in Cuba as the central point, radiating the entire Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.

"Now the discussion on whether the Golden Triangle Federation wants to approve the gambling industry has intensified, I think the market has this demand, especially the Golden Triangle Federation with mercenary characteristics, the gaming industry can not only bring a lot of income, but also stimulate the development of tourism, in addition, with the current strength of the navy, can develop maritime casinos, which no country can compare with us." Wu Beixin said.

"What you think is not unreasonable, in addition to the living environment, the Golden Triangle Federation does not have any projects worthy of tourists' interest, so let's take a plan first, and I will match resources as much as possible, but this kind of industry must be controlled, and it must not have a bad impact on the Golden Triangle Federation, especially mercenaries, it is not easy to make some money, and it is all thrown into the casino, which is my dereliction of duty as a boss."

"I emphasize that government workers, personnel of enterprises affiliated with Atlantis International Group, military and mercenaries on duty must not enter such occasions, unless they are required to do so, they will be severely punished as soon as they are discovered, and those who violate the rules of government departments and enterprises will be punished by fines and sentences, and the military police and mercenaries will be directly shot!" Wu Chen said lightly.

The key is that the Golden Triangle Federation lacks resources, there are many mountains and plains, there is no mineral support, industrial and commercial development has just started, and the financial revenue depends on the manufacturing of the military industry.

But Wu Chen is very disgusted with pornography, gambling and drugs, and his methods are extremely cruel, and his character makes everyone dare not speak out. Finally, this is the opportunity to build the country, and Chief Executive Wu Beixin has the courage to put forward this proposal. The gambling industry has been around since ancient times, and the best way is to channel rather than intercept, and people have a natural nature to gamble.

"Marcas, the federal government has applied to me to approve the gambling industry to operate in the Golden Triangle Federation, what do you think of this proposal?" Wu Chen called and said.

"It's a good thing, what does the Golden Triangle Federation want, it has to toss some attractive features, right? I feel that the mercenary corps is more formal than the regular army, and the mercenary army is to throw their heads and spill blood in wartime, drink and soak women in their spare time, and fight and gamble by the way. Marcas's tone was filled with excitement.

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you, I approve the establishment of the Golden Triangle Federal Gaming Company, the Golden Triangle Federation and the Atlantis Sea State, each set aside a special place to build a high-end entertainment area, not only the land to build the world's most luxurious international hotel casino, but also the sea casino can not be abandoned."

"You discuss with the U.S. government, the aircraft carrier Oriskany, which can't be dismantled, will be sold to us as a gambling ship, and then three to five super luxury cruise ships will be customized. It is said that the British government wants to decommission the aircraft carrier Invincible, and you can also go to find out, and the price will not exceed five million dollars. ”

"By the way, the production line of the Tomcat fighter, you also discuss it with the US government, let Grumman directly transfer it to us, anyway, this aircraft has been discontinued, it is of little use to them, the Shield Guardian 1 carrier-based aircraft and the Super Hornet carrier-based aircraft, the loss is a bit large, I am ready to use the Tomcat carrier-based aircraft for routine tasks." Wu Chen made up his mind.

The more high-end carrier-based aircraft, the higher the hourly consumption, Wu Chen believes that if it is not a hard-to-head war with a military power, the Tomcat carrier-based aircraft is enough to complete the task, of course, the reproduction is a new model, but the cost will be greatly reduced.

"Or boss, your big hand, to engage in two aircraft carriers as a sea casino, this is really a bit interesting, I will act immediately, the British government is now poor jingling, it is estimated that it will collect money, as for the aircraft carrier Oriscany that cannot be sold, the US government will definitely give it away in vain. But I don't know if the above machine can still be used, and modification is also a trouble. ”

"We and Northrop are now international arms giants, and they are also partners of the US Department of Defense, and we have a lot of cooperation in private, and many of our advanced weapons and equipment accessories are bought from them. Marcus said with a smile.

The Mercenary Corps' E-2 AWACS, EA-6 electronic warfare aircraft, Global Hawk drones, F-14 Tomcat carrier-based fighters, Nimitz-class aircraft carriers and Virginia-class attack nuclear submarines, advanced seal delivery systems, Hornet-class amphibious assault ships, San Anthony-class amphibious dock transports, etc., are all products of Northrop Grumman, and the mercenary corps of course works closely with this military-industrial giant.

The USS Oriscani, an old aircraft carrier in service in the United States for 51 years, is the last of the Essex-class aircraft carriers, and after being delisted eleven years ago, it was sold twice for dismantling, but unfortunately it was unsuccessful both times, and it is still a headache for the US Navy.

The Essex-class aircraft carrier, with a full load displacement of nearly 40,000 tons, four steam turbines with four-shaft propulsion, auxiliary two diesel engines, and two steam catapults, with a length of more than 270 meters and a width of more than 50 meters, is equipped with outdated self-defense weapons, and the US government charges a maximum of one dollar, and the actual value is not enough for the cost of dismantling.
