Chapter 493: respective areas of expertise
As he went upstairs, Ahmad Zaidi was apprehensive.
When the door to the inner room was opened, Ahmad Zaidi saw the back of a boss's chair, and the leader of the kidnappers was smoking a cigarette with his back to him.
"Ahmad Zaidi!" The kidnapper greeted with a bit of amusement in his tone, "Good morning."
Ahmad Zaidi didn't speak, and no one would feel good if they were kidnapped.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the leader of the kidnappers turn around, and Ahmad Zaidi froze in place.
In the blink of an eye, Ahmad Zaidi felt that he might have been frightened after being kidnapped, causing his mind to not be too clear and misseeing.
I looked down, looked up, and rubbed my eyes.
Look up again, hey, it's still that person.
Bow your head again, this time carefully rub your eyes, and then raise your head......
Damn, Sean Rockefeller!
No...... This...... He...... I...... Ahmad Zaidi's whole body is about to collapse, which makes no sense.
He was kidnapped, and the kidnapper was led by Sean, a well-known umbrella private military contractor, a leading figure in the Rockefeller family's generation.
Who would believe this!
Not to mention being believed or not, he himself can't believe it now.
However, there is one thing Ahmad Zaidi is relieved, he used to think that the kidnappers' methods were really unguardable, but now it seems that since it was done by the people under the umbrella, it is reasonable.
Although he himself did not understand why a security company was so skilled in the kidnapping business, why it would be a beaver.
Anyway, being kidnapped is a crime of right and wrong.
"Haha, Mr. Ahmad Zaidi, how is it, surprise not surprised, unexpected not surprised!" Sean laughed and stood up and spread his hands.
Ahmad Zaidi: I'm so surprised, so surprised!
If it weren't for the fact that the person in front of him couldn't even be provoked by the Malay Sultan, he would have really wanted to rush over and scratch Sean twice.
"A nice surprise, wasn't it?" Sean smiled and walked out from behind his desk and walked up to Ahmad Zaidi, "Life, always repeating yesterday's life every day, what is the meaning of life?"
"We need surprises in life, and that will make life more colorful."
"Hehe, hehe, it's really colorful and colorful." Ahmad Zaidi gritted his back molars, stared into Sean's eyes and said, "I thank you......
I added another sentence in my heart, eight generations of ancestors!
Of course, a large part of the reason why he didn't get angry was that after meeting Sean, he knew that his life was absolutely not in danger today.
Sean wouldn't do this kind of thing personally, most likely something else.
Just, very curious.
"I received your thanks." Sean smiled and made a gesture of please, "Sit here, let's talk."
The two sat down, and Lorraine walked over with two cups of tea.
"Taste, rejuvenate the tea, calm the mind." Sean said with a smile.
Ahmad Zaidi gave Sean a deep look, you still know how to prepare the Awakening Tea, and you know that you will be scared to death,!
No, I don't have to thank you!
Ahmad Zaidi had no interest in speaking at all, and took a sip of the tea in front of him, well, it was indeed a lot more comfortable.
The main ingredients of the awakening tea are mint leaves, lemon, verbena, etc., and the effect is indeed immediate.
"Ahmad Zaidi, what do you think of what just happened?" Sean suddenly asked as the other party put down the teacup.
At this moment, Ahmad Zaidi couldn't hold back any longer, 'bang, put the teacup on the coffee table, and said loudly with a grim face, "Sean, you, you, you......"
I wanted to scold, but when I saw Sean's serious face, I was immediately suffocated most of the anger, and suddenly remembered a legend that last time Sean went to the Malay Palace in a rage, beat the prime minister, and scolded the Malay Sultan.
He's not going to sneak up on me, a 60-year-old man!
"Don't go too far!" The voice of the speaker unconsciously lowered the tone, and the more he spoke, the quieter he became, and no matter how he listened to it, he had no momentum at all.
"No, no, no, I'm not kidding, think for yourself how you feel today." Sean stretched out a finger and shook it with a solemn expression.
Ahmad Zaidi frowned and glanced at Sean again, as if he really wasn't trying to humiliate himself?
Sean: No, I'm just humiliating you!
"Very, suddenly, very, panicked, I didn't feel like I could do anything about it." Ahmad Zaidi replied thoughtfully.
"Your security is terrible." Sean said as he shook his head.
"You guys?" Ahmad Zaidi looked puzzled, and immediately grasped the point.
This 'people' definitely doesn't refer to those bodyguards, they don't deserve it, and they are not people of the same class.
"Abang Zoobdan, Tayimam." Sean said with a slight nod.
"You kidnapped them too?" Ahmad Zaidi had three big words written on his face, 'Good guy,' and after seeing Sean nod, he had more on his face, 'Good guy, even more.'
It's worthy of being a security guard, huh, what is this?
Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent to win all battles?
"How can this be called kidnapping, I didn't ask you for ransom." Sean spread his hands and said sincerely, "I'm helping you do a 'hazard warning test', to help you test whether the security team around you is qualified and whether they have the ability to ensure your safety in the face of sudden situations."
"Obviously, the security team around you is not up to par!"
Ahmad Zaidi: !!
You have a point, and I'm speechless!
Also, are you sure those kidnappers are as skilled as you are?
"I helped you verify the team's ability to protect your own lives, and discovered the huge hidden dangers, shouldn't you thank me?" Sean frowned at Ahmad Zaidi.
The corners of Ahmad Zaidi's mouth twitched, it sounded like all catcakes were cat cakes......
Well, he couldn't find any reason to refute it.
In the end, it is the head of Sarawak, I can't be a scoundrel like ordinary people, I am willing to be unsafe if I say that you can be used!
Taking two deep breaths, Ahmad Zaidi said, "Thank you, Mr. Sean."
"It's so insincere." Sean shook his head regretfully, "But, forget it, who made me generous, with a heart to help others."
Ahmad Zaidi clutched his chest, so depressed!
Ahmad Zaidi then asked curiously, "I'm curious to know how you invited the other two, of course, I'm not looking for the trade secrets of the umbrella, I'm just curious, if Mr. Sean can say it, of course it's the best."
Sean looked up at Ahmad Zaidi, and always felt that this guy was secretly sarcastic about himself.
What is the method of kidnapping that becomes a trade secret under the umbrella?
That's rumor-mongering!
Thinking so in his heart, Sean still said the way, and Ahmad Zaidi, who only listened, was dumbfounded.
Ahmad Zaidi: I've confirmed that the business level of the umbrella is indeed proficient, far beyond its peers!
"Back to business, when it comes to helping others, I have to mention another thing that I invited you to here today." The atmosphere was awkward, and Sean forcibly pulled the topic back.
Ahmad Zaidi: I knew you weren't that kind.
"Personally, I think a large part of the reason why this is happening today is that there is a serious mismatch between your status and the benefits you enjoy." Sean stared at Ahmad Zaidi and said, "You are the head of Sarawak, the equivalent of the sultan of other states, but look at the treatment you enjoy, the benefits you enjoy, there is a world of difference."
"They're in heaven over there, and you're still living on earth."
"The children of their family are naturally superior, and you ......" Sean shook his head with a look of regret.
"What the hell are you trying to say?
Isn't it?" Ahmad Zaidi frowned.
"Status and treatment should be commensurate and should not be discriminated against."
"Wait." Ahmad Zaidi raised his hand to interrupt Sean's words, lowered his head and thought for a long time, then suddenly looked up and said, "Did you say the same thing with the two of them?"
Sean smiled and nodded.
"They agreed?" Ahmad Zaidi's face was incredible.
This is not a simple sentence, this is to start a power struggle with the Malay government!
Again, what kind of political position should Sarawak have in Malay as a whole?
This question actually existed long before Sean.
In order to maintain its influence in the Malay Peninsula and to balance the Chinese, who account for nearly half of the population, the British Empire proposed a plan to pull Sarawak, Hun Ni and Sabah to join and dilute the proportion of the Chinese population.
The Malays supported this, and Xingcheng also supported it at that time, and the mud was resolutely opposed because of the oil tax and the royal issue.
Sarawak and the major Sabah families are also against it, and no one wants to have an unfriendly mother-in-law on their heads.
At this time, the British Empire, which had not yet sunset, sent a committee headed by Ge Bo to conduct a poll in Sarawak, and the results showed that Sarawak and the people of Sabah were considered to be 'very supportive of the plan'.
So, in 1963, the Malaysian plan was successful.
According to the founding contract at that time, the Malay Agreement, referred to as the MA63 Agreement, stipulated that Heungcheng, Sarawak, Sabah and the Malay Peninsula were established on an equal footing.
Two years later, Xingcheng was kicked out of Malaysia, and the Malay Peninsula has an absolute advantage in the fields of population, military, economy and technology, and Sarawak and Sabah have no ability to resist at all, so their status has been invisibly reduced.
Looking back now, this was a 'chain plan,' first persuading the Li family in Xingcheng to form a Malaysia to cope with the complex international environment after World War II, and then pulling people to dilute the proportion of Chinese, and then kicking Xingcheng out for secondary dilution.
The result was a Chinese state surrounded by a ring of foreign powers, isolated by a circle of foreign powers, and a Malay population with a greatly declining population.
Between the two steps, Britain once again completed the division and co-optation, so that both Xingcheng and Malay had to rely on them, ensuring Britain's absolute position in Southeast Asia.
A perfect, textbook-level political operation.
When it comes to playing international relations and PUA, the UK is number one in the world!!
Undoubtedly!
After all, the attitude of the north towards the subject country in history has been 'Huairou,' benevolence and righteousness, paying attention to a heavenly kingdom, and the corporal is a virtuous corporal, and it is vigorously helping the development of neighboring countries, such as marrying princesses, bringing advanced productivity and technology, and so on.
Well, it is still the same.
To get back to the point, the ethnic groups of Sarawak, well, the major families, have always wanted to restore their rightful status, but the focus of Malay's development is on the Malay Peninsula, and they deliberately ignore Sarawak, which leads to the longer the time, the greater the gap in strength between the two sides, and the more impossible it is to restore their status.
If it weren't for Sean's intervention, Sarawak would have been struggling for decades.
Now, of course, the situation has changed significantly.
"Why not? The people of all nationalities warmly welcome only good, not bad." Seeing Sean's nod without hesitation, he accentuated the words on the "people, all ethnic groups, Ahmad Zaidi's expression was full of struggle.
"Doing this, it will ...... Sarawak's development," Ahmad Zaidi interrupted Sean before he could finish his sentence.
"What's going on in Sarawak?" Sean spread out his hands, and that expression seemed to say Are you so funny?
"Tell me, what has happened in Sarawak over the years?"
"Agriculture?" Sean scoffed, "The Malay government's report is clear that it is necessary to maintain the pristine ecology of Sarawak and not to damage the environment excessively."
"Malay is the world's largest producer of palm oil, but why is it in Peninsular Malaysia and not Sarawak?"
"Because all aspects of production, processing, sales and transportation are more in the Malay Peninsula
convenient, because where is the center of the country's development!"
"Manufacturing, well, that's a joke in Sarawak!"
"Mining is good, but after digging, it all has to be transported to the Malay Peninsula!"
"Only timber and fishing are okay."
"Don't kid yourself, Sarawak is no different from the newly independent Lithuania, it is just an exploited resource production area, and in the eyes of the people of the Malay Peninsula, Sarawak is a poor country colony that only supplies them with raw materials and markets!!"
"You don't have any development except for blood drawing, not at all!" Sean pointed at Ahmad Zaidi's nose and said loudly, "You can't just think of speaking for the Malay government just because you are a Malay."
"You see, you're the leader of the Malays in Sarawak, not the fucking Sultan of the Malay Peninsula!"
"How much dividends the Malays have enjoyed in their development has nothing to do with ***."
It's like the northeast and northwest after the reopening.
It's like the one who gets rich first and the ...... later People who have not become rich.
Ahmad Zaidi didn't know if he was scolded by Sean or said that he was hit by the pain point, and his face was extremely ugly.
"Besides, who said you were Malays?" Sean's tone softened suddenly.
Ahmad Zaidi was stunned for a moment, looking up at Sean blankly, with a puzzled expression.
"You tell me what's the difference between Indonesians and Malays?" Sean raised an eyebrow.
Ahmad Zaidi: ???
In the blink of an eye, he seemed to grasp what Sean meant.
"I think you're from Sarawak, what do you think?" Sean looked at Ahmad Zaidi with a smirk, "Dear Sultan of Sarawak, Mr. Ahmad Zaidi."
Ahmad Zaidi: !!
As soon as the title was changed, Ahmad Zaidi's eyes lit up instantly, the kind that was shiny and shiny.
"Say it again, I didn't hear you."
"Honorable Sultan of Sarawak, Mr. Ahmad Zaidi." Sean said with a smile.
Ahmad Zaidi struggled to hold back, his eyes narrowing into a slit, "What is Sarawak?"
"Sarawak, Sultan!"
Ahmad Zaidi grinned, her little tongue chattering in her throat.
Ahmad Zaidi really didn't want to betray the Malays, but ......
But Sean, he called me Sultan!
I really didn't want to shout the slogan of Sarawak independence, but ......
But Sean, he called me Sultan!
Which Malay controls the residence?
I can't control myself!
Sean's voice as a sultan really killed the last bit of hesitation in Ahmad Zaidi's heart!
Just to think that his family has become the ruling family, Ahmad Zaidi decided to fight!
Whoever I love, who is not fucking good, no one can stop me!
In terms of the founding contract, Sarawak was originally on the same status as the Malays, and the full name should be called the Malay X Asian Federation!
What's wrong with me fighting for my original legal rights!
Just ask you what's wrong!
Seeing Ahmad Zaidi suddenly so excited, Sean always wondered if this guy had misunderstood something.
Think left and right, it's better to make it clear.
"Ahem, that, the name of the country after independence has been decided?" Sean said suddenly.
"Huh?" Ahmad Zaidi was stunned, still immersed in the happiness of the Sultan and couldn't extricate himself.
"It's called the Kingdom of Brooke." Sean said word for word.
Ahmad Zaidi: ???
No, why am I a big Sarawak sultan?
Of course he knew what was going on with the Brooke dynasty, but why!
"What are you looking for them to do, I can come out and top it, I'm not afraid of anything, this is what the people of Sarawak deserve!" Ahmad Zaidi said eagerly.
"Don't get excited." Sean tried to reassure.
"I'm not excited!" Ahmad Zaidi said excitedly.
Sean:!!!
I'm not blind.
"You have to consider the thoughts of the Iban, the Chinese, the Marano, and others, you know!" Sean said solemnly, "It's not just for the Malays."
Ahmad Zaidi was reminded by Sean, and only then did he calm down a little, ah, yes, there were other people, and he forgot about it in a hurry.
"What are they going to do?"
"The constitutional monarchy, the same as the current Malays, the difference is that the kings of the Brooke Kingdom will not take turns, you will be your Sultan of Sarawak, Taymam will be his Maranor Sultan, and the Batingi family will be their Iban Sultan!"
"Hey, what about the Chinese?"
"Chinese are just Chinese, I can't make a Lanfang Sultan." Sean rolled his eyes, "We have to admit that whether it is a Malay or an Iban, if they are on a level playing field, they will never be able to compete with the Chinese, which is a fundamental defect in the historical and cultural heritage, and there is no way to make up for it, so I can only not put them on the track at the beginning."
"Of course, you know, we have a very close cooperation with the Asian Investment Bank, and I can't go too far and just inherit the existing Malay system."
Ahmad Zaidi suddenly said, this is not something bad to do too much, you are afraid that they will not be able to lose their tails.
Ahmad Zaidi is all too familiar with this aspect, and who of all ethnic groups in Southeast Asia is not afraid of the Chinese to impose all kinds of restrictions.
Hatred or something, it's not for nothing.
"That, that, I ......" Ahmad Zaidi spoke with a bit of ink, Sultan!
"You are still your Sultan of Sarawak, of course, you can change your name if you want, I don't know much about the history of the Malays in Sarawak, I suggest you look for history and find your own culture." As he spoke, Sean reached out and gently tapped Ahmad Zaidi's chest.
"Culture is the most fundamental way to bind people."
"Culture, culture." Ahmad Zaidi muttered, some thoughts in his head, but not clear enough for a moment.
"What is a culture, different languages, unique festivals, distinctive costumes, own historical stories, these are all part of the culture." Sean prompted.
"It's like Indonesian!" was broadcast like this, Ahmad Zaidi's eyes lit up, and he understood in an instant.
Indonesian is almost the same as Malay, and there is a slight difference in pronunciation, just like HB and TJ, but it is stunned to distinguish two completely different nations and countries.
Ahmad Zaidi glanced Sean up and down again, a super-rich man who was not only proficient in security and kidnapping, but also how to rebel.
What kind of genes are there that make this gentleman have so many factors that give way to surprises!
Talent!
As far as Sean said, although he didn't know much about it, the clan elders in the villages, the head of the town and the imams definitely knew it.
When I think of imams, Ahmad Zaidi thinks even more, and if I think about it, I can actually distinguish it from a religious perspective.
This has to talk about the YSL system, they set up a special rentier class - imams.
According to the canons, the imam has the right to interpret the Qur'an and has a noble social status and strong appeal in the community.
This is important.
As long as the mind is open, Ahmad Zaidi has many options.
Before leaving, Sean saw this guy's excited appearance and made another request, "You know, you are the head of Sarawak, so the Declaration of Independence must need you to announce it publicly."
"Of course, I know, it's like Lithuania!" Ahmad Zaidi smiled smugly, and humorously gave an example that had just happened.
Unlike Tayimamu, Ahmad Zaidi is not afraid at all.
It's not that he was fooled by Sean again, but from a political point of view
It's clear.
He is a Malay and the head of state of Sarawak, so he should naturally stand on Sarawak's side.
If he succeeds, then he is the first hero of the restoration of the Brooke Kingdom, and if he fails, he is using the 'broken window effect' to fight for the interests of Sarawak, and he can win the votes of other ethnic groups in Sarawak.
Win or lose, he won!
Moreover, this slogan can be shouted for a long time, all the time, the crying child has milk to eat, even if he just wins the right to autonomy, then he will win.
Of course, independence is better!
It wasn't until he left here that Sean figured it out.
Damn, don't look at the age and timidity, but these old politicians are really good in their professional fields.
Of course, yourself in the ...... Uh-huh...... The professional field is also very level!
Each has its own strengths
