Chapter 488:
Previously, Sean had transferred 300 people from other parts of Southeast Asia, and this was the time to use it.
Dozens of people were mobilized, divided into several waves, and drove a small boat to explore, and the news came back in about two hours, and sure enough, Wang Dehui's vehicle was found underwater.
Sean looked very happy, which confirmed that his prediction of the course of the kidnappers was correct.
"It is impossible for these robbers to buy or lease yachts as a tool to guard Wang Dehui at sea, and it is likely that they are the most common fishing boats on Hong Kong Island, which is also convenient for them to stay at sea for a long time."
"Ask the coast guard or fishery administration how big are the most common fishing boats on Hong Kong Island and how fast they sail?" Sean commanded.
It didn't take long for the news to come back, and Sean calculated the time between the two calls from the detention team, and immediately got the approximate location of the fleet when the last call was made on the map.
This area coincides with the coverage of the offshore base station just provided by the communications group.
Sean was very happy to get this result, which shows that the detention team did not move widely within 24 hours, which is good news.
The only problem is that this range is still very large, and Hong Kong Island is one of the busiest ports in the world, so there are so many ships in this range that there is still no way to pinpoint which one is the specific one.
However, there is no hurry, there is always a way.
"Call the Hong Kong police and ask the coast guard not to patrol in this direction for the time being, so as to prevent ...... No! Saying that, Sean suddenly paused, the mastermind is from the police, if the coast guard suddenly gives up patrolling this range, will it arouse his vigilance?
"Let the coast guard patrol as close to the shore as possible, the other party's ships are most likely close to the open sea, don't disturb them, once they escape, it will be troublesome to find them again."
"Okay." Norris agreed.
Of course, the Hong Kong Island police are not Sean's subordinates, and there is no possibility of ordering them to cooperate, but the Hong Kong governor does not think so.
In the eyes of the Governor, Sean is a big trouble, a big trouble that the Major government can't handle, and he doesn't want to make Sean unhappy because of this little thing.
Besides, Wang Dehui's kidnapping of eucalyptus has caused a great impact among the wealthy on Hong Kong Island, and the police don't have the courage to jump out and speak against it at this time.
A moment later, Norris returned, holding a fax in his hand, "The police have been instructed, this is the list of retired police officers they have compiled according to your request, and according to the screening criteria you provided, the people have been divided into various ABCDE files." ”
As he spoke, he handed the fax to Sean.
Sean looked down and saw that there were more than 40 people in the A file, and more than 300 people in the B file, so he didn't bother to look at it later, and threw it directly on the table, "What a fucking waste!" ”
"Let them call and verify, and give me this kind of thing to use!"
Norris thought for a moment and said, "I guess the Hong Kong Island police don't know how to verify it. ”
Sean rolled his eyes and reached out, and Norris immediately handed over the phone, "Hello Mr. Lee, I'm Sean." ”
The current Hong Kong Island first brother's surname is Li Mingjun Xia, and he is the first Chinese director in history.
After greeting each other and complimenting each other, Sean got to the point, "My idea is to contact the people on this list by landline, the name is casual, insurance sales, the police's care for retired police officers, and the relevant investigation launched by the city government, the name is casually searched, and you only need to determine the general location of the target." ”
"The landline is reported at the time of installation, even if it moves, the distance will not be too far, you know what I mean."
Sean sorted out the kidnapping process and grouping of the kidnappers through the phone numbers and traffic records used by the kidnappers, and Wang Dehui's vehicle was also found.
The approximate range of the kidnappers is now being determined by the base station connected to the mobile phone used by the kidnappers.
The police only need to use the elimination method to narrow down the scope again, and those who cannot be contacted are also in the ranks of suspicion.
"Understood, understood." Li Chu reacted instantly, and while agreeing, he couldn't help but secretly smack his tongue in his heart.
Hung up the phone, Li Chu slurred twice, it seems that this super-rich man is really not messing around, he has a lot of means!
Although Sean's mobilization of resources is somewhat exaggerated, it is not something that the Hong Kong Island police can do to get the two major telecommunications companies of Wanwan and Hong Kong Island to cooperate regardless of the legal provisions.
But there is no problem at all.
Why do the super-rich have a clear mind?
What is the experience that makes a super-rich man more proficient in case detection than the police?
Is it the distortion of human nature or the degradation of morality behind all this?
Li didn't figure this out.
Shaking his head, he pressed the intercom to call the secretary over, and the task still had to be explained, but the specific reason was not said.
After assigning the task to the police, Sean drew attention back again.
At present, there are two goals that need to be achieved, find Wang Dehui and find the mastermind, and either of the two goals can be achieved.
Focusing on these two purposes, Sean thought about it for a long time and finally had a way.
"Is it possible to use two or three adjacent base stations to judge the approximate location of the mobile phone number?" Sean reconfirmed with the communications expert.
"Yes."
"Alright, let the communications company keep an eye on it, I guess this guy will come back in the evening, and I will notify you as soon as the mastermind returns here again." Sean began to set the task.
"In addition, you are divided into several groups of people, enter the determined range with signal blocking equipment and try, and try to eliminate the temptation little by little, although it is a little troublesome, try to lock its position in a small area."
As soon as Sean said it, the people below understood, they entered with a signal jammer, and as long as they found that the mastermind's mobile phone number was cut off from the base station, it was equivalent to saying that the other party was already within the shielding range.
It's troublesome, but it's not that hard.
"Finally, notify the communications company and ask them to reduce the power of the offshore base station, narrow the signal range, and lure the ship guarding Wang Dehui to gradually move closer to the shore."
"Well, it doesn't seem to work." The communications expert said in a low voice: "The port of Hong Kong Island is busy, there are too many ships coming and going, and it is good to say that the time is short, but the communication company will not be able to stand it after a long time." ”
"Okay, then give this one up for the time being, and use it at a critical moment." Sean thought about it and took the suggestion.
This is not a question of whether Boss Li is willing to cooperate or not, communications, electricity, water supply, etc. belong to the scope of people's livelihood.
The order was given, everyone took action, Sean also got up and left, and came to Hong Kong Island, Sean was not specifically to save Wang Dehui.
His aim was to say that Sarawak was divided from Malay!
……
"This is information from Sarawak." Norris handed a document to Sean.
Sean looked at it silently for a while, and one of his concerns was what resources Sarawak had in the state.
After all, Sean is not an internationalist warrior, nor does he have any dedication, revenge on the Malay is one thing, but getting enough benefits is another!
The first is agriculture and forestry.
With 124,000 square kilometres, Sarawak is a vast land area, with about 32% of the land being deemed suitable for agriculture.
At present, less than 3% of the land has been developed for oil palm and rubber, and less than 10% of the area is used for food crops, and there is still a lot of room for development.
It is worth mentioning that pepper production accounts for 90% of the entire Malay.
In addition to timber, Sarawak is also one of the world's largest producers of tropical hardwoods, with export targets of Benzi, Ah Sam and Wanwan.
If Sarawak becomes independent, Sean will not participate in the direct development of the land, but he will definitely get the right to export and distribute grain in Sarawak.
Firmly grasp the lifeblood of Sarawak farmers!
Then there's mining.
Mining, quarrying, sand mining, etc., account for about 20% of the state's economy, which is not a small proportion of the economy.
However, for the time being, Sean will not participate in mining development, and he will not be able to participate in the large mining industry in Africa, but he can buy property rights in advance for reserves.
Apart from mining and agriculture, there is not much left in Sarawak.
Only sporadic manufacturing industry can't get into Sean's eyes at all, the focus of Malay's development has been on the West Malay Peninsula, and Sarawak has been in a state of being sucked by blood.
What really attracts Sean is the abundance of offshore oil and offshore gas fields off the coast of Sarawak, which are real treasure troves of resources, but these resources are not even explored, let alone developed.
The Malay government also has its own calculations, even if it develops, it must first develop the vicinity of the West Malay Peninsula, and Sarawak's accession to Malaysia was completed 20 years ago under the promotion of the British, and the Malays must be on guard against Sarawak.
This point was discovered by Sean when he looked at the political structure of Sarawak in the back, which also explains why Sarawak has been suppressed for a long time.
The Malay Sultan was elected from among the Sultans of the various states, and everyone discussed and did it, but there was never a matter of Sarawak.
Originally, Sean thought that it had only been more than 20 years since the founding of the country, and they were all several strong states, such as Johor or something, but it was not Sarawak's turn, but after reading the information behind, I knew that Sarawak did not have a sultan!
After reading through Sarawak's recent history, Sean discovered something interesting about it.
Before 1843, Sarawak, including the nearby state of Sabah, was all the mud kingdom, which was the ancestor of King Gigi, and it was only after 1843 that Sarawak became independent and founded the Brooke Dynasty.
This Brooke is not a serious name when it sounds!
James Brooke, an Englishman, was born in Bhazz, southwest England, and ventured into Southeast Asia with the East India Company in his early years.
In 1835, after his father's death leaving a £30,000 inheritance, James used all his family fortune to buy a decommissioned gunboat, HMS Loyalist, from the Royal Navy.
In 38, James traveled to Borneo, north of the Republic of Lanfang, just in time for the Sarawak Yin Ban Datuk Batinggi Ali to revolt against the exploitation of them by the Muddy Kingdom, and the then King of Muddy sent his uncle Bangendin Margoda to quell the rebellion, but was defeated.
The defeated Bangendine Margoda happened to meet James Brooke and asked for help.
Ambitious, James immediately seized the opportunity to make a deal with the Muddy Kingdom, and in exchange for the governor of Sarawak, he sent troops to help quell the rebellion.
In 1840, an agreement was reached between the two sides, although James only had one gunboat and 100 men, but the fighting power of the Yin Ban people was really unbearable, and the gunboat 'Royalists' bombarded Kuching and suppressed the Yin Ban uprising.
In 1841, James became the Governor of Sarawak, but he also saw the weakness of the Muddy Kingdom, which was still very small, less than 10,000 square kilometres, smaller than the Republic of Lanfang in the south.
In 1842, after re-enacting local laws and stabilizing the rule, James suddenly declared Sarawak's independence, and the muddy kingdom scolded the white devils for being despicable and shameless, and immediately sent troops to attack.
Even the muddy army, which could not be defeated by the Yin Ban rebel army at the beginning, was naturally defeated by James, and by the way, they counterattacked back and occupied a large piece of territory.
In 1843, James appointed the Malay Ha Sin as prime minister, abolished corporal punishment, slave keeping, and head hunting, and ruled Da Ding.
In 1844, James sent Henry Wise to lobby London to get the British government to recognise Sarawak, and Sarawak gradually began to invade the east.
In September 1863, James ordered his nephew Charles to be regent, and he returned to England, which recognized Sarawak's status.
In March 1868, the United States closed its consulate in Brooke and recognized the status of the Kingdom of Brooke, and in June, after James's death, his nephew Charles Anthony Johnson changed his surname to Brooke and took over as king.
Charles was proficient in the local Yin Ban language, recruited Yin Ban as soldiers, used Malays as officials, recruited Chinese immigrants to colonize, and the Chinese became the second largest race and paid huge taxes.
In 1917, after the death of King Charles of Sarawak, he was succeeded by his nephew Charles Wiener de Winter Brooke.
In 1941, the book entered Borneo, and on June 30, 1946, Charles Wiener de Winter Brooke abdicated, handed over Sarawak to British management, and ran back to England with three generations of looting huge wealth.
After World War II, the British managed Borneo until 1961, when the British proposed the Malay Plan, and on 16 September 63, Sarawak formed the Kingdom of Malay with Sabah, Singapore and the Federation of Malay.
After reading the information, Sean looked incredible, the British even went to Southeast Asia to establish a kingdom, which is off the charts!
"I asked about this." Norris explained: "Although the Brooke kingdom is recognized by the United Kingdom and the United States, even the original founder, Bruce himself, is only regarded as a name, in fact, it is a large company, but for the convenience of management. ”
"It's learning the system of the Republic of Lanfang next door."
"However, the Republic of Lanfang established by the Chinese had no background, so it was destroyed by the Dutch in 1888, but the Kingdom of Brooke had the backing of the British, so it continued to rule until 1946, and the kingdom lasted for more than 100 years."
"Many old people in Sarawak still recognize the rule of the Brooke dynasty, after all, it has only been 43 years since the abdication."
"What do you mean to support this Charles Brooke's descendants to reinvent?" Sean immediately understood what Norris meant.
"Yes, boss, I don't think it's perfect to push the Yin Ban clan, who is the first most populous, or the Chinese who are the second most populous, to be on the top." Norris said with a smile.
Sean squinted his eyes and touched his chin, the ethnic composition of Sarawak is complex, not only the Yin Ban and Chinese, but the Malays in the third place are more numerous than the first two races.
If the Malays are supported to take the throne, the future will be a big problem, and there are too many Malays in Southeast Asia.
If you support the Yin Ban tribe, the Malays may not support it, and if you don't do it, you will have to fight, and then give the Malays an excuse to intervene.
Words to support the Chinese...... Sean shook his head and vetoed it when he thought about it, it is not for nothing that the Chinese are being alerted by the entire Southeast Asian ethnic group, there is a prosperous city that is almost there, and another Chinese country still covers such a large area, the United States will not be able to sleep.
Sean had long had the idea of splitting the Malays, and the reason why he gave up was because the national question could not be solved.
Now, the information Norris had collected gave him a new idea.
A puppet who is justifiable, has a ruling base, and poses no threat to anyone can reassure everyone, while an Englishman is the king, the opposition in Britain is not so strong, and the United States can handle it on its own.
The most important thing is that a puppet with no rights, in order to intercept greater benefits, will definitely move closer to himself, which will be of great help to his future covert manipulation of Sarawak.
Looking at it this way, there is a feeling of sudden enlightenment.
"Can you find this Charles James?" Sean slapped the information on top of it and said with some excitement.
"I've found it, just wait for the boss to make a decision, 40 years ago, I took away the wealth accumulated by three generations, but today 40 years later, it has declined again, hehe." Norris laughed dryly, his tone full of sarcasm.
"Good!" Sean patted Norris on the shoulder with an approving face, "Very good, this matter is not in a hurry, it is not too late to find them when the Malay side is arranged, I think I will come, the people of the Brooke family will not refuse." ”
Saying that, Sean smiled, "Now it's not the empire where the sun never sets, hehe, it's also ridiculous, I don't know how much the people of the Brooke family regret it now, look at the group of local tyrants in the Middle East, look at the mud of the small country of the projectile, these kings are so rich, it's just staggering." ”
"Hehe, the stupid guys who call themselves gentlemen in England, who always live in their fantasies, are always so arrogant, in their eyes, no king is comparable to a British lordship." Norris echoed with a smile: "Now Charles Brooke's descendants are afraid that they will dig up his grave in anger!" ”
Sean nodded in agreement, this matter is in a hurry, it really can't be done, I can find someone to deal with it as a descendant of the Brooke family, who can prove that it is not.
Go back and find an opportunity to ask Shen Bi, change his son's surname, and play as a king.
……
It was already night when Sean returned to the makeshift war room again.
"Tell me, what's the progress?" Sean tapped lightly on the table.
"The police have verified the list in accordance with our requirements, ruled out the suspicion of most of the people, and there are still 12 people left, most of whom cannot be contacted."
"Yes, it's okay to shrink down to 12 people." Sean nodded to continue.
"The mastermind of the target has returned to his original address, and our people are checking a little bit with a shield, but the coverage of the shield is not 100% accurate, especially in urban areas with complex terrain, and the scope has been narrowed down to two buildings as much as possible, but there is no way to test it more specifically."
"Almost, what about the detention ship at sea, is it still in its original position?" Sean asked again.
"They moved their position, originally in the waters on the east side of Hong Kong Island, but today they began to move towards the west side, and finally lost their tracks." The communications expert said with a serious face.
"Huh?" Sean sat up straight, how could it be?
"According to their movement trajectory, we judge that they may have gone to Gambling Australia, which is not Boss Li's communication company, coverage, and it is very likely that the phone number has been changed."
"Damn, hugely cunning!" Sean snorted and kept changing positions at sea, basically eliminating the possibility of the hostages being rescued.
That's how he played last time when he kidnapped Boss Li's son.
Ahem.
"I'm staring at the mastermind, I can't let him run." Sean thought for a moment and said with confidence: "Wait for tomorrow, tomorrow I will have a way to catch it." ”
……
At night, Sean still slept at Nina Gong's house.
The next morning, at the same time, the man from the Wanwan negotiation team called again, Sean picked it up again, and asked directly without waiting for the other party to speak, "Are you ready for an account?" Have you opened an account in different countries and different banks? ”
Li Weijie: "......"
As a member of the kidnappers, I am in a bad mood right now.
"It's open, you remember!" Li Weijie said angrily: "BNP Paribas ......"
"Wait, I asked to speak to Mr. Wang Dehui on the phone, we will not send money until Mr. Wang Dehui is safe." Sean suddenly interrupted the other party.
Li Weijie: "......"
Sean, who has always been very active, suddenly did not cooperate, Li Weijie was choked very uncomfortable,, can you wait for me to finish the account!
"You fucking write down your accounts first!" Li Weijie yelled angrily.
"All are ......" A busy tone sounded on the phone, Li Weijie held the mobile phone with a confused face, and the connection was dropped?
It can't be hung up by the other party, right?
Don't believe in evil, Li Weijie dialed again, and after a few calls, the phone was picked up, and he heard the voice just now, "Is it Mr. Wang Dehui?" ”
"It's me, you just hung up on me?"
"From now on, I will only answer Mr. Wang Dehui's calls, I will not do anything until his personal safety is confirmed, remember, where the money is, 60 million US dollars is ready, whether you can get the money or not, it depends on whether you are obedient." With that, Sean hung up again.
Li Weijie was stunned in place, the whole person is not good, what do you mean that we are not obedient, we are kidnappers, hey, can you respect us!
When will the kidnappers stand up!
Chill and shiver!
Cursing a few words fiercely, Li Weijie had no choice but to dial the boss, one thing Sean said was very right, where is the 60 million, and they will get the money immediately, and now they are more anxious than each other.
After all, it is only true when the money arrives, and Wang Dehui's more than 100 catties of meat are not worth much.
Zhong Weizheng heard the report of his subordinates, and he was not surprised at all when he was angry, Sean was not the woman Gong Nina .
Being strong is the normal performance.
He just wants to make money now!
……
Monthly pass, monthly pass!
The last day
It's too late to vote again!
