Chapter 336: The Prelude to the Great Development
At the same time as the discussion, Su Ming had already contacted his subordinates on the Angolan side and asked them to enter Namibia and cooperate with the presidential guard to carry out the arrest mission.
Without any defense, the entire Ministry of Defense from top to bottom, all the places that were not pulled were arrested, and all the soldiers were controlled, including the two military camps far away on the border, which were also under the monitoring of the Thor team, although there was an order from the president himself, but being able to control a country so quickly still made Su Ming very excited.
It seems that with its own force, basically except for those countries in North Africa and South Africa, it should be okay to take other African countries, but it is useless to take these countries, Namibia is not bad, at least there is no hunger problem, for other countries, just providing so many people to eat is a big problem.
Most of Africa is either a savannah climate or a tropical desert climate, there is no drop of drought for half a year in the dry season, and it will not stop raining every day in the rainy season, which is basically not suitable for the survival of all crops, and the means of production are primitive and backward, only a little better than the uncivilized savages, coupled with the chaos of the national system, coups d'état, and the resource advantage is also in the hands of most foreign companies, and the local people are unlikely to benefit.
The vast majority of European and American countries operate in Africa based on the principle that they would rather spend a lot of effort to transport the raw ore to other places for processing than to build a processing plant here, and cost is one aspect, and the main thing is that it is not conducive to their control of Africa.
In their eyes, Africa can only be their raw material supply, don't think about developing their own industry at all, even if the leader of that country has ambitions, you must block your development path in terms of capital, technology, etc., otherwise you will support other forces to overthrow you by force, for obedient people, it is to take out a little meager funds to send out in the name of humanitarianism, in fact, it will not solve any problems at all, those who should starve to death will still starve to death, and those who should die of disease will still die of disease.
In a country as big as Namibia, there are less than 30 hospitals, even if it is calculated by the number of people, there are only tens of thousands of hospitals in one hospital, and the level of hospitals is basically the same as small clinics in China, like Germany's annual aid of more than 10 million US dollars and Sweden's more than 10 million US dollars, I don't know what they are doing.
And the situation like Namibia is not bad, many countries don't even have a decent hospital, if you are sick, you can only rely on jumping the god or waiting for death to save the entire African continent, now Su Ming is still out of his power, save Namibia for the time being, the road to richness in Africa has a long way to go, Su Ming suddenly felt that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
Because of the fear that the other party still has forces outside, the interrogation of them has been under the full supervision of the Su family, and the search of these people's offices and homes is being carried out simultaneously, because there is no warning at all, so the harvest is very huge.
Defense Minister Mutatu alone had a huge amount of $20 million in his account, which was divided into two separate payments, once for the purchase of Thor's Glue and once after three months, and almost all the senior officials of the Ministry of Defense had funds of varying amounts, and even the soldiers of the Komasdar military camp received a return of $500 each.
In the end, the total amount is about 40 million US dollars, plus the contract amount of Thor itself, in order to get these ten Thor, the mysterious forces hidden behind the scenes paid more than 130 million US dollars for this, what kind of force is so rich? Although more than 100 million dollars is nothing, but to whom, and to whom will it be obtained, and it will definitely not be used in public if it is obtained so covertly, then it must be researched, who will it be, the United States? Su Ming was the first to target his suspicions at this country.
But after interrogation, Mutatu confessed that all this was carried out at the instigation of a woman from the East, although he didn't know the woman's name, but he had heard the woman talk to others in Chinese, Su Ming heard the description of her appearance, and immediately became angry, isn't this obviously deceitful, and took Zhong Haiyun out as a disguise.
China also spent so much effort to deceive ten Thor, and 200 were delivered, but Zhong Haiyun is now nowhere to be found, and the other party pointed out like this, could it be that Zhong Haiyun is a double agent, working for China and other countries at the same time?
Su Ming asked Sun Xian if there was this possibility, Sun Xian also hesitated after listening to Su Ming's introduction, she hadn't contacted Zhong Haiyun for a few years, and Sun Xian really didn't know much about her specific identity, but since she was a senior intelligence officer of the country, if there was really a problem, the country should be aware of it.
Sun Xian contacted the country, but there was still no clue from Zhong Haiyun, it was estimated that something was wrong, and he could not confront the other party, as long as the interrogation was temporarily over, although tens of millions of dollars could not make up for the huge losses, it was still able to make Namibia's political axe relaxed for a while.
Many of the agreements signed with Su had to be approved by parliament before they could take effect, and since the president and prime minister were the leaders of the first and second largest parties in parliament respectively, the agreement was not a problem, and three days later, the contract was officially put into effect, and there were still no clues on the other side.
Su Ming began to establish his own organizational structure in Namibia, because the African side is more suitable for the development of operations, and most of the business is here, Su Ming decided to arrange the operation department of Antai Company here, and the Pakistani side as a training base.
For the personnel of the Namibian Political Axe Army, after review, they attracted a part, only a few hundred people, all of whom had nothing to do with the defense minister's faction, and because of the need for a lot of engineering construction here, Su Ming decided to mobilize the Pangu team as well, leaving only two teams there on the Pakistani side.
A country's defense is not like the original mercenary task, it requires professional defense arrangements and defense area planning, as well as a rational deployment of personnel, and all these require the introduction of professional personnel, the establishment of professional-level command structures, and the construction of large-scale military bases. The complicated clues made Su Ming chaotic for a while, and he didn't know where to start.
And the whereabouts of Thor and the staff are unknown, this can't be ignored, get so much land, mines, and fishing grounds, what are you waiting for if you don't start work quickly, many of them have time limits, you have to hurry up, and you can't let go of every minute.
Fortunately, backed by a huge country, the fishery development company has as many as it wants, whether it is offshore fishing, cage farming, or ocean fishing, as soon as the investment information is released, countless people have come to the door, and everyone knows that this sea area is an excellent fishing ground.
The mine is also very sought-after, whether there is an exploration report or no exploration report, it is very robbed, especially a state-owned enterprise called Huaguo Aluminum, which proposed a plan to Su Shi to pay 400 million US dollars in exchange for development rights, and can also cooperate in the distribution of income.
In the end, it is more suitable, although the cash income is more direct, but this is worth 340 million US dollars, and it is 60 million more than 60 million in the hand, Su Ming is a little reluctant, if it is 600 million, you can consider it, otherwise you will consider cooperation, but you want 60% of the shares.
Su Ming's 66 plan and the other party's 44 plan were neutralized and turned into a 55 plan, Su Ming thought about it, and still felt that it was useless to have a surname income, and he was not short of money, so it was better to gamble, in case the poor mine became rich, he would get it back.
And minerals, a non-renewable resource, have a huge value-added space in the long run, Su Ming finally decided to cooperate with this Huaguo aluminum, after all, a contract with a company can reduce the workload, and now what Su lacks is talents, all kinds of talents.
The fishery also cannot be wasted, and has signed development agreements with three different types of fishing companies, which is a one-time fee, but the development agreement is only five years, and the Su family has already received 60 million US dollars in cash, and 2 billion US dollars in 200 years.
If you want to say why people in Namibia don't develop like this, it is because without such a strong backing payment as Su's, Chinese companies would not come here at all, on the one hand, there is no information, and on the other hand, they are also affected by the chaos in Africa, and ordinary enterprises do not dare to invest here.
It's different with the Su family, the Su family has its own force, in case something happens, you can ask the Su family for help, and it is a contract signed with the Su family, so you don't need to deal with the local political axe at all, this is naturally different, that is, after Mihoko heard the news, she also came to the door and asked to invest here.
Sumitomo Metals was originally such a business, after negotiations with Huaguo Aluminum, Sumitomo Metals is ready to build a metal refinery here, and the refined concentrate will be purchased by Sumitomo Metals according to international prices, and it is also a country with serious shortage of resources, they are not like those companies in Europe and the United States who are picky, and Sumitomo's refining technology and tailings waste residue treatment technology are also world-class.
Said Ben is also a big fish and meat consumer, after negotiations, a Hokkaido fishing company introduced by Mihoko is ready to build a fish processing factory and a large-scale breeding base here, but Su Ming thought of a possibility, recently said that Ben seems not to be in a hurry to buy Thor, could it be that they did it?
