For the time being, the vaccine researched by Blacklight Technology is only used in Africa and other countries where the epidemic has occurred.

Although the vaccine has gone through a month of clinical trials, only temporary redness, swelling, allergies and other insignificant side effects have been found, but no one knows whether there will be more far-reaching side effects on the human body after a long time.

Therefore, except for regions such as Africa, which are in urgent need of vaccines, such as Middle-earth and North America, will not use this untested vaccine for their own people.

And the mess in the African region, even if the vaccine is in front of them, the Earth Federation does not expect them to make the vaccine themselves, so the Earth Federation held several meetings and shared the task of vaccine manufacturing.

Because there are a total of 1.2 billion people in Africa, each continent has to share some of it, so North America is divided into 200 million vaccines, Central China is 150 million, Europe is 150 million, North China is 100 million, Oceania is 100 million, East China Sea is 100 million, and the other continents share the remaining 400 million.

Originally, the Indian region had to allocate at least 100 million tasks, but it has long been too busy to take care of itself, and this continent with the world's largest slum population has long become a petri dish for the virus, which is slightly better than Africa.

In short, the next few months will be the time when all continents and regions will vaccinate the people of Africa, until everyone has antibodies, or the virus kills all those who do not have antibodies.

Looking at the report on the news, Chen Chen shook his head with a sigh, after this plague, Africa is really broken.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of Chen Chen's office.

"Please come in."

Chen Chen raised his head, but saw a gray-haired old black man pushing open the door and walking in.

This old man is Chen Chen's old acquaintance, and it is none other than the Minister of Energy, Zulama.

"Minister Zurama, what a rarity."

Chen Chen stood up politely and said with a smile, "You should have informed me earlier, so I can go downstairs to meet you." ”

"Mr. Chen is out of sight."

This old man who was over sixty years old had long lost his former brilliance, and at this time, he had a miserable face, and only after seeing Chen Chen did he barely squeeze out a smile and walked in.

In the past two months, many senior Namibian officials have chosen to resign and leave the country with their families, but many have chosen to stay, including Zurama.

"Mr. Chen Chen, thank you for everything you have done for Namibia."

Looking at the young man in front of him, Zulama couldn't help but show emotion, "If it weren't for you, Namibia would probably be even worse than it is now." ”

"I didn't do anything."

Chen Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then said solemnly, "I believe you have also seen that I can't help the hundreds of thousands of refugees outside the city." ”

"You've done well enough, a month earlier than the Earth Federation expects to develop a vaccine, which is equivalent to saving tens of millions of people."

Zurama closed his eyes and sighed, "As for those people, our country is too weak to blame......"

Immediately, Zurama fell silent.

Chen Chen didn't speak, just looked at the computer for a long time, and made a "click" sound when the mouse buttons were pressed from time to time.

After about ten minutes, Zurama finally couldn't sit still, he suddenly took a deep breath, and stood up as if he had made up his mind, "I am here on behalf of the Namibian Parliament this time, first, to thank you for your contribution to our country, and second, to ......"

When he said the word 'two is', Minister Zurama looked at Chen Chen again, but found that Chen Chen was still silent, so he had to continue to say, "Second, we hope to get two million vaccines from BlackGuard first......"

Speaking of the back, Minister Zurama even blushed, mixed with such a government, it can be said that there is really no one.

"Yes, I agreed."

Unexpectedly, Chen Chen didn't hesitate at all, and directly agreed.

Minister Zurama was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Chen Chen to agree so happily, and then a look of gratitude flashed in his eyes, "Thank you." ”

Chen Chen waved his hand, the reason why Zurama deliberately emphasized this "priority" is because there are 60 countries in the entire African region, and the production of 1.2 billion vaccines will take several months, and the further it is delayed, the more people will die from the virus.

Therefore, if you get the vaccine one day earlier, you will have fewer deaths and less losses for your own country's citizens.

Now that he had opened this mouth, Zurama simply said the rest of the words in his heart, "Also, we want to ...... I want to get a grant from you. ”

"No problem, we are willing to assist your country with $500 million in humanitarian relief funds in the name of the company."

Chen Chen nodded, still without the slightest hesitation.

"Really, really?!"

A trace of excitement flashed in Minister Zurama's expression, originally the parliament was going to hemorrhage, and even planned to sell his dignity in exchange for Chen Chen's assistance, so he let Zurama come to fight the outpost.

But who would have thought that the other party would agree so readily, and a series of conditions set by the Congress were not stated......

"Of course it's true."

Chen Chen left the desk and sat on the sofa beside him, and at the same time motioned for Zurama to sit down as well, "Although I am not a citizen of Namibia, I have cooperated with your country for so long, and now that your country is in trouble, I will also give it a hand." ”

Chen Chen said with a smile, "There is an old saying in our Zhongzhou District that is good - I treat people with sincerity, and people treat me with sincerity. ”

It's time to come or it's coming......

When Zurama heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly, "Please say, as long as the conditions are not too excessive, the Congress will consider it." ”

"Not too much of a stretch, of course."

Chen Chen nodded, "Do you still remember the fifty thousand hectares of land I leased for forty years, now that I think about it, forty years is too short, if I can, I hope it can be extended for another fifty-nine years." ”

"This ......"

Zulama suddenly breathlessed, and then nodded a little bitterly, "I know, I will bring the request to the Congress." ”

"One more."

Chen Chen continued, "Since the trial operation of the nuclear power plant during this period, I have found a serious problem, that is, in my planning, the power resources are stretched, so I hope that from today onwards, the electricity produced by the nuclear power plant can be freely distributed by me without the supervision of your country." ”

"You!"

Zulama's face turned blue when he heard this.

Why does Namibia want others to build nuclear power plants on its own soil, just because it can drive the development of its own country, but now that the nuclear power plant has been built, but its own country can't even use its electricity, what is the use of building this nuclear power plant?

This is one thing that no government can tolerate.

"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid Congress won't be able to agree to this."

Zulama's face turned pale, and he said coldly, "Mr. Chen, let's change the conditions." ”

"Don't make a quick decision, Minister Zurama."

Chen Chen was not surprised by the other party's reaction at all, but smiled indifferently, "If Congress thinks it is inappropriate, we can compromise, and I will invest another 500 million US dollars to invest in a million-kilowatt thermal power plant in the suburbs of Windhoek to provide development assistance to Windhoek, what do you think?" ”

“……”

Zurama fell silent.

Chen Chen knew that this was the other party's heart, so he continued to strike while the iron was hot, "I remember that the thermal power plant near Windhoek has a history of thirty years, and the unit has long been old, resulting in Windhoek often being in a state of power rationing, if there is another power station to provide power to the capital, this old power unit can be renovated and upgraded, and even free up hands to support nearby cities, which is a complete win-win situation......

"What about the electricity bill?"

Zurama asked suddenly.

"I can hand over the entire power plant to Congress."

Chen Chen Chen Chen thought about it and said indifferently, "I only charge one rental fee, and I will collect it for a month...... A million dollars is good! ”

Zurama was taken aback, "Are you serious?" ”

In his opinion, the rental fee of one million dollars a month is almost no different from giving away for nothing!

"Tong Su is not bullied."

Zulama's face slowly softened at this time, he glanced at Chen Chen deeply, and sat back on the sofa.

I have to say that the influence of this young man in front of him has grown to the point that even the Namibian Congress is about to be uncontrollable.

Zurama remembers reading Blackworth's semi-annual financial statements to the Department of Taxation, which showed that in the first half of 2023, the net income of hundreds of nursing facilities in Life Science City reached $18 billion!

What kind of number is this?

Last year, in 2022, Namibia's annual GDP was only $15.036 billion, which means that the net income of an institution owned by Blackworth alone has exceeded Namibia's GDP!

And Zurama still remembers that the Life Science City is just a branch of BlackWorth, I heard that this company also has a Swiss branch, and the head office of Zhongzhou, and especially the head office is mainly science and technology products, and the annual profit is also hundreds of millions of dollars......

Moreover, the conditions set out by themselves at the beginning were tax free for three years and half for five years, which means that no matter how much money Blackwater makes in three years, it has nothing to do with the Namibian government......

Sometimes, Zurama even wants to take the life science city for himself, and if this private city can become a Namibian industry, then his own country will definitely be able to reach a higher level of national power, right?

Unfortunately, Congress would not dare to do this, and no country in the world would dare to do so, and if any country did, the credibility would be over.

Looking at the young people around him who had been doing a long time, Zulama sighed secretly, "I understand, I will take these conditions to the Congress to discuss, I only hope that Mr. Chen, you can get a vaccine for us as soon as possible." ”

In the end, Zurama even used the word "you" for the first time.

"Within three days, the vaccine will arrive at the Namibia airport."

Chen Chen nodded, and said, "Not only the vaccine, but I can also provide all the disposable medical equipment, for the sake of my sincerity, I also ask Minister Zurama to take my request to heart." ”

"Of course."

Zurama also replied solemnly, and the transaction between the two sides was a preliminary pleasure.

Now that the preliminary agreement has been reached, the previous smell of gunpowder suddenly dissipated, and the smiles on the faces of the two of them were again, and on Chen Chen's desk, there was also the sound of boiling water.

"What sound?" Zurama was stunned for a moment.

"Minister Zurama probably doesn't know about the tea culture of our Middle Continent."

Chen Chen stood up, put a sea of tea on the desk and put it in front of the two of them, and at the same time skillfully took out a small teacup with a tool, placed it on the sea of tea, and began to make tea.

"Tea culture?"

Zulama was slightly surprised, "I know the tea in Zhongzhou District, but what is the tea culture?" ”

Chen Chen smiled, did not speak, but followed the process he had seen on the Internet step by step to brew and make tea, and gradually, a fragrance of tea wafted out.

At the end, Chen Chen placed a teacup containing a pale green liquid in front of Zulama, "Taste it?" ”

Zurama raised an eyebrow, then picked up the teacup and drank it down.

Suddenly, a fragrance spread in the mouth......

"I've never had tea that tasted like this!" Zurama was amazed.

"It's ugly."

Chen Chenqian conceded, "By the way, Minister Zurama, has the death toll in your country been counted?" ”

"Not yet, Congress is still unable to do statistics."

Zulama's face was a little heavy, "Mr. Chen Chen, how many people do you think are killed or injured in Africa this time?" ”

"A lot."

Chen Chen lowered his eyes, "Although the news has always claimed that the death toll of the plague is between 30 million, this data only comes from the fringe countries of the epidemic, and the dozen or so countries that are really at the center of the epidemic, such as the Rainbow Country, Angola, and your country, have already lost their statistical capabilities, and some small countries have even died. ”

"So, the real death toll must be much more than 30 million."

Chen Chen added, "Although this number sounds sensational, it is actually a consoling lie, and the real death toll should be more than 10 times that of 30 million......

"Alas......"

Although he had been prepared, when Chen Chen said it himself, Zulama still felt a little shocked, he stood up and turned around and walked towards the door, "Okay, thank you for your hospitality, I should go back too......"

Chen Chen sent the other party to the gate, and couldn't help but shake his head as he watched the Minister of Energy, who was obviously a lot older, leave step by step.

Like this dual minister of investment and energy, he has formed a party in Congress for personal gain, accepted bribes, and used all kinds of means.

However, in the face of such a national crisis, he resolutely chose to stay in the country and stand on the front line of the fight against the epidemic......

I have to say that man is sometimes a complex creature.
