Chapter 203: The Collapsed Take-off Group

These few days have been like a dream for the people living in the Lucas Islands.

Originally, they thought that the presidential army would be overthrown by the Democratic Party, but the Democratic Party was actually beaten up.

Just when they gave up hope in the Democratic Party, the mercenaries they paid for raised the white flag of the presidential army.

I have to say that such a dramatic change has left many people unable to react at once.

But in any case, the end result is that the Democrats have finally won.

After the occupation of the barracks, the Democrats regained confidence in victory, and those fighters who did not die in the civil war reunited under the new flag, retrieved equipment from the occupied arsenal, and captured the newly renovated presidential residence.

President Wenceslas Havel, who had not yet woken up, was dragged out of bed and put in prison, and a member of the Democratic Party climbed onto the roof of the presidential palace and used a logging axe to cut off the old flag, a symbol of dictatorship, and replaced it with a new one, a symbol of peace and democracy.

At the same time, under the democratic election, the trusted president Lin Xiujie entered the presidential palace and read out the declaration of the founding of the country in front of a group of bewildered foreign journalists.

The old president was outlawed, the Lucas Islands was changed from a general ** system to a presidential republic, and the people were changed to the new Lucas Federation, referred to as the Qatar State.

The first president will be Lim Siu-kit for a five-year term, after which universal suffrage will be held, and the parliament will be composed of 10 members elected by voters in each of the 10 sub-islands of the Lucas Islands.

The federation of only 10 islands is undoubtedly a bit funny in the eyes of the media of various countries, so much so that many Western media are hesitating whether this news should be placed in the current affairs section or the entertainment section.

Immediately afterwards, a reporter asked why the name of the country was named in Chinese, and whether it had anything to do with China.

Lin Xiujie's explanation for this is that since 47% of the island's residents are Chinese, Chinese and English will be listed as common languages on the island.

At this time, another reporter asked a very pointed question, how can you guarantee that President Wenceslas Havel is dictatorial with the army, and you will not follow the same path as him.

For this question, Lin Xiujie felt a little bitter in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face, and lightly announced a word that shocked all reporters, that is, "defense contracting system".

From today onwards, Qatar's defense will be fully contracted by Wishing Star Trading, which has the right to recruit mercenaries within or outside the country to undertake domestic protection.

The Star Trading Company is directly accountable to the Constitution, does not have to obey the president, and the cost of employment is offset by customs duties and land rent.

When they heard Lin Xiujie's explanation, a thought flashed through the minds of all the reporters, it was crazy!

In this way, it is tantamount to completely handing over the military power of the state to private individuals, and running the army in the mode of running enterprises.

Will such an army be combative? Can such an army guarantee national security? Is such an army safe in itself?

But after calming down, these reporters thought about it again, and this kind of thing is not unprecedented in the world.

At present, the US military is the most dependent military in the world on private contractors, and more than 60 percent of the annual funding of the US Department of Defense is paid to contractors.

In addition to fulfilling the most basic military duties, the current US soldiers have outsourced all the affairs in the military, from the research and development and manufacture of weapons to the logistics services related to eating, drinking, and lazing, private contractors are everywhere.

The advantage of this is that private contracting not only saves a lot of costs, but also relays the burden of compensation for fallen soldiers to private companies, so since there is a precedent, this system is not entirely undesirable.

It's just that the entire Ministry of Defense has been dumped so completely to private contracting, and these reporters have heard of it for the first time, and I have to say that in terms of laziness, this small country with a big sesame seed is at the forefront of the world.

For a time, this small country with a population of only 50,000 was rarely on the homepage of international news several times, and at the same time, the Star Wish Trading Company was also featured in many well-known newspapers.

All sorts of irresponsible speculations have popped up about this company that the public has never heard of.

Some people say that there may be some kind of mineral under the Lucas Islands, and that this Star Trading Company is just a subsidiary of a large consortium, and the investors are likely to come from the United States.

Of course, no one guessed the relationship between Wishing Star Trading Company and Yuanying International Group, after all, the two have nothing to do.

On the other side, the Democrats sent President VΓ‘clav Havel and his family to prison, and then angrily surrounded Lake's villa.

However, when they arrived at the villa, they found that someone had already been here.

The iron gate of the courtyard wall lay on the lawn a few meters away, as if it had been hit by a car, and the bodies in the villa had not yet been cleaned, and the dead were all shot through the chest.

Eventually, the Democrats found Lake's body in the basement, along with the women he had imprisoned in the basement.

Lake is dead, and instead of giving up, the Democrats dump his body on the beach for the birds to eat.

The victims all received a generous amount of compensation, signed as Qatar**, which was said to have been donated by an anonymous wealthy businessman, and could be regarded as a small compensation for the unfortunate people.

The new flag flew over the Lucas Islands, and people cheering the new regime took to the streets, celebrating the arrival of freedom and the rebirth of the country as if they were celebrating Christmas and Chinese New Year's Eve.

Meanwhile, in the dining room of the presidential palace, Xu Yuan and Lin Xiujie sat on either side of the long table.

"The Berry people threw an olive branch to us in the hope that we would join their camp and said that if we continued the pro-American policy of the previous regime and issued a declaration in favor of their international position, they would increase the aid loans to us." While eating delicious food, Lin Xiujie told Xu Yuan about the news he received.

Xu Yuan replied lightly, "Refuse." ”

"But that's 20 million dollars." Lin Xiujie's expression was a little reluctant, and he said with difficulty.

After all, that's $20 million, and even if it goes to each islander, it's a thousand dollars, and all they need to do is say a couple of words in front of the media, and that's it.

Xu Yuan raised his head and glanced at Lin Xiujie angrily, "You are so short of money?" Or is it that he is in Cao Ying, and his heart is in Han? ”

Don't even think about it, with the face of those berry people, they are just trying to win over a group of sub-countries to advocate the threat of Huaguo or something, Xu Yuan doesn't want to see the country he controls scold his mother country in turn.

Lin Xiujie shook his head vigorously, but silently added in his heart: It depends on how much money it is

"It's only 20 million US dollars, and my Yuanying International Group has a monthly profit of 200 million or 300 million US dollars, and I will lend you some of the money you need." Xu Yuan said slowly, but silently added in his heart: Just use the land.

"Ahem, can I understand that you're showing off your wealth?" Lin Xiujie smiled bitterly.

The Lucas Islands has just enacted a tax cut to spur economic recovery, but the funding gap is still huge, and the mess that Wenceslas Havel has created now needs Lin Xiujie to fill.

"I just want to give you a little bit of confidence. The reason why I chose this place is naturally because I am optimistic about the development prospects here. Xu Yuan said lightly.

"The Lake Group has declared bankruptcy, and the $20 billion project has also been ruined, what prospects are there here?" Lin Xiujie's expression was a little bitter.

I didn't think about it that much at first, but now that he has been elected president, he has realized the hardships of governing the country, which is really difficult!

"It's okay, I'll just do that project."

Lin Xiujie raised his head suddenly, "Two billion dollars, can you take it?" ”

"I believe that there are many banks that are willing to provide loans to Source Shadow International Group." Xu Yuan said very confidently.

This is true, even in China, many banks went to Nie Shuying to beg her for a loan.

Although the $20 billion is a bit scary, if the shares of Source Technology are pledged, I believe it is still easy to get.

What's more, in fact, it will not cost 20 billion dollars.

"Are you really willing to lend $20 billion for this small island nation?" Lin Xiujie sniffed, looked at Xu Yuan in disbelief and asked.

"Of course, I believe that this will bring me no less than 100 billion returns."

Hearing this, Lin Xiujie gasped suddenly.

He really couldn't imagine how this small island nation with a population of less than 50,000 could create hundreds of billions of dollars.

"I have a request, can you point me out? How can I achieve 100 billion dollars, you can give me a fantasy to mention my motivation! Lin Xiujie looked at Xu Yuan with some hope and asked.

Frowning, Xu Yuan said slowly: "I can only tell you that this place is close to the equator, so the details are very close." ”

"Above?" Lin Xiujie was stunned, and subconsciously looked up at the roof.

Suddenly!

His pupils twitched, he stood up and said in disbelief: "You want to develop space technology!" Yuanying International Group has space technology?! ”

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, Xu Yuan got up and came to Lin Xiujie's side, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Work hard, maintain your high-spirited style, and after you retire, I will arrange for you to work in the Yuanying International Group, no worse than you being president." ”

"That's not important, I just hope you'll lead this country to prosperity and strength as you promised!"

Hearing this, Xu Yuan glanced at Lin Xiujie with some surprise, these days, there are not many people who can calmly refuse money.

Shrugging his shoulders, Xu Yuan said softly, "Sure, this is also my territory, isn't it?" ”

In Xu Yuan's vision, if everything goes well, in less than five years, this place will become an island that people all over the world yearn for

Walking out of the presidential palace and pulling the car door, Xu Yuan sat in the co-pilot, and then waved his hand to the front.

Picking up his sunglasses and hanging them on the bridge of his nose, Liu Ling put his hand on the steering wheel and looked sideways at Xu Yuan.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to the construction site of the Ascendas Group."

Nodding slightly, Liu Ling skillfully started the car.

Leaning back on the comfortable seat, Xu Yuan looked at the scenery flying by outside the window, wanting to keep these scenes in his heart as much as possible.

It's an indescribable feeling, and some time ago he was on the move, but now he is the master of an entire archipelago.

This is his kingdom, where no intrigue can plot against him, and no one can reach out to his company with a shy face.

If it is said that after the establishment of the Qatar state, the biggest economic loss is definitely not President Wenceslas Havel, but the Ascendas Group.

The fall of the old regime and the bankruptcy of Lake International have turned the $20 billion contract in the hands of the Ascendas Group into a piece of waste paper.

As for the two gold mines that guarantee the assets of Lake International, they are just Li Zhiming's conspiracy.

He first found two abandoned mines, then hired geological exploration personnel to re-explore the gold reserves to falsify the gold reserves, and then used the gold provided by Xu Yuan to register the output, went through the tax process, and fabricated a beautiful fourth-quarter output report.

Immediately afterward, the two gold mines were shut down under the operation of Li Zhiming, and the reason for this was the business adjustment.

With such a toss, the value of these two gold mines was reached 32.1 billion US dollars, and the asset guarantee was successfully completed.

It is still very easy to inject water into the asset guarantee, after all, it is not an asset sale, and the auditor generally does not come to the site for exploration.

Ascendas' project team did carefully review the 50-page asset certification documents, but they never thought that the stamp under the African ** stamp itself was watery.

As soon as Lake International went bankrupt, the two gold mines were thrown into the hands of Tengfei Group, but it wasn't until Wang Lufeng wanted to realize them that he found that the two gold mines at hand were all waste mines!

Lake International has done tricks on the reserves of gold mines, and the asset certification report is not true!

After Wang Lufeng learned the news, he was carried directly into the emergency room.

No return!

This is the only word that can describe the losses suffered by Tengfei Group, which has invested about $4 billion in this $20 billion overseas project.

Now the first phase of the project has ended, but Lake International has closed down on the eve of paying for the first phase of the project.

It is no wonder that Wang Lufeng will be directly unconscious, if such a loss appears in front of shareholders and shareholders, the entire Tengfei Group will disappear overnight.
