Chapter 612: Smile without saying a word
As soon as Long Yingtian left, Su Bai asked Lin Ya.
"How much do you know about that West Africa?"
"I understand quite well." Lin Ya said softly.
"Tell me." Su Bai seemed to have really made up his mind to help the country do this. Whether it was out of his favor for his uncle or because of anything else, he had to understand it first.
Lin Ya nodded and said in detail: "This country looks very rich and strong on the surface, but in fact it is strong on the outside but at the middle. President Adel is a dictatorial president. He has been re-elected for a full ten years. The Constitution is completely a decoration for him. Whenever his presidency reaches its time, he will use some means to maintain his rule, and even at a certain period of time, he even serves as the Prime Minister. If it weren't for external pressure, he really wanted to
The plan to change the constitution and then become an emperor is to become an emperor. This person is very ambitious, but he is not very capable. He likes the satisfaction of vanity, but he really does not have much ability for his country. Since he is from the military and more than half of the important military positions in the military are competent by the people he brought out, he can be said to be powerful. Such people are of course not popular in any Western country, and many countries even want to pull them off and then further control the country."
"I am ambitious but not capable. I am poor but I like vanity. Especially I like power. Therefore, any foreign force with ideas who want to intervene in this country will cause him to resist?" Su Bai asked lightly.
Lin Ya nodded, saying that Su Bai's analysis can fully explain everything about Adel.
"Will that be easy for us to solve?"
"I don't think so. In Adel's eyes, we are still foreign forces." Lin Ya had to remind Su Bai, hoping that he would not be too confident. Without having contact with Adel, he naturally didn't know what a fucking person he was.
"Can we get in there in West Africa?"
"Your China-Africa International has companies there, but you just want to open our Imperial Bank there. You should not even think about this kind of thing. He will be 100% careful about anything that may threaten Adel's rule. Otherwise, West Africa will not be able to have only one bank until now."
"Since you are ambitious and greedy for vanity, I believe that if a fool gives him money, he will not refuse, right?" Su Bai said with a smile.
"That's the thing, but do you really think it's that simple? Which of the countries that intend to enter West Africa did not give him money? But he refused! Do you think we can give it money?"
"That's because they gave less and more. I promise that Adel will reveal his nature. I think about it first, and you are going to prepare. I believe that we will soon enter West Africa and even have dinner with Adel."
Lin Ya was speechless, not knowing where Su Bai's confidence came from. Since he said that, he had no way to stop him, so he could only turn around obediently and prepare.
Not long after Lin Ya left, Su Baibai and Qinglong walked in.
"It just happened to be a problem for you." Su Bai smiled and said to the two people, indicating that Qinglong brought the map not far away. Qinglong brought the map and spread it in front of the three people. Su Bai pointed to the country of West Africa, "Our next target is this country, I have needs."
"What do you want us to do?" Su Baibai asked softly.
"Qinglong, you can find a way to investigate whether there are superpowers in this country. If not, contact West Africa, and then tell their President that I intend to sell him several superpowers as his personal bodyguards. Baibai, go and call Sister Caihua and ask her and the ghost ship to prepare a batch of arms. The number may be large, and I need it."
"Would it be too shameless to always sell it with your brother?" Qinglong was most reluctant to do this kind of business, so he complained a little.
Su Bai smiled and said, "Don't care about these details. My brothers will still take them back in the future. Anyway, the psychics are very popular everywhere, and they are not asking them to be coolies. What are you worried about? Many countries are making the idea of this country, but the gifts are too small. It's no wonder that any national finance department will be very troublesome to give out a gift that can impress the other party. Who makes people shout democracy and openness every day? I'm not so stingy! If you want to give it, you will give it to the big one. The Adel who gave it looked at me with admiration, and the Adel who gave it kneels down and calls him father!"
"Shameless." Su Baibai said softly, and Qinglong nodded quickly, expressing his agreement with this. Su Bai just laughed loudly, and then looked at the country in West Africa with a smile.
A politician with ambition but incapable ability actually needs the most help from external forces, but the bargaining chips given by everyone are too low, and he can offer a price that is enough to make him tempted! Don’t be afraid that he won’t take the bait!
Su Bai's actions were so fast that it caught Lin Ya off guard. As soon as this plan was formulated, Su Bai had already begun to contact him with West Africa. Especially the conditions for contact were shocking. This large-scale business, free railway construction and free loans had already made him feel whether Su Bai was planning to buy this country. Looking at the hidden gifts that cannot be disclosed below, Lin Ya felt that Su Bai was really shameless because he had money! Selling superpowers? Giving arms? Are there things you dare not do? Which country in Africa would silly refuse these things? It was such a big deal!
As expected, after Adel made great interest in Su Bai through the feedback from the following people, especially after meeting Lin Ya, he found that Lin Ya did not represent the country in the East, but represented Su Bai's personal personalities. So he had to take this guest seriously and hoped to make an appointment with Su Bai to have a meal together.
Su Bai agreed to the request with a smile, and then arrived in West Africa by a special plane.
The dinner was not held in the presidential palace, but at Adel's home.
A house that looks very shabby, Su Bai didn't know whether it was Adel's real residence. Lin Ya and Qinglong were accompanied by him, and he entered the reception room with a smile. Adel is a typical African, not very old, so it is hard to believe that a man who is only in his fifties has been in charge of this country for more than ten years.
"Mr. Su Bai, welcome to my dinner." Adel stood up with a smile, in pure English. Beside him, there was a middle-aged man in a suit and a military commander.
Su Bai smiled and shook hands with Adel politely to say hello. He also heard Adel introduce the two around him. One was the Prime Minister and the other was the Minister of Defense of West Africa!
It seems that this guy really wants to talk to him, rather than having a meal in advance. But then he thought about it, and he made contact with him. He must have investigated his actions in other countries clearly, so he has already made plans to have a deep conversation with him.
"Mr. Su Bai, West Africa and Donaco are a distance away. I know that Mr. Su's enterprises are spread across these countries, but I'm too curious. Why do you look at us?" This is a test. Even if Adel understands Su Bai's idea, he will deliberately put it forward to test it, hoping to get more useful information.
Su Bai smiled, not minding the opening of the topic as soon as he got out of greetings and entered the main topic: "I value West Africa for three main reasons: First, my country entrusted me to hope to mine rare minerals with your country. I believe that the President has already received the news of this matter, and it is meaningless to hide it. But at the same time, I also hope that Mr. Adel can understand one thing. Although I represent my country, I am me, and my country is my country. Do you understand?"
Adelgan smiled, but he really didn't expect Su Bai to say his purpose as soon as he came up, instead of trying to listen to his opinions and then make other plans.
"The second reason is that although West Africa is not very big, its geographical location is very important. Especially in the strict sense, the business prospects are broader than those in Donago where I am. Especially since you have a port here, it is very different for trade. Naturally, I have wanted to come here to develop. Of course, the final reason is that West Africa is relatively stable under your rule. Only when the country is stable can I do business well with our black friends, right?"
Adel was very happy that Su Bai would say this, and showed his proud expression without any concealment: "What about the third reason?"
"The third reason is very important, because I hope that my African International Group will have a headquarters that radiates the entire Africa, and the new headquarters location, I hope to be in West Africa. This needs to be explained in detail. There are three main purposes: one is the prospect of business development, the second is the level of this country, and the third is that I need a president like you to protect! You have ambitions, but you don't have much funds in your hands, and the overall level of the country is not strong. It's like a wise mayor wants to develop his own city, but he lacks too many things to fulfill your ambitions. And I just have everything you hope for besides ambitions. As long as we join forces, you become your president, and I do my business, and everyone will share the benefits. Isn't it a good decision?"
Adel laughed, because where is the simplest thing Su Bai said?
"I'm glad Mr. Su Bai thinks this way, and I'm glad Mr. Su Bai will say such words, which will make me regard Mr. Su Bai as a friend at the first time. But you should know that many countries are thinking about this thing, and this thing is simply the hope for our future development for us. I can't contribute this thing just because of a little benefit from Mr. Su Bai."
"I have already said it very clearly. What other countries want is to pay cheaply to get the rare minerals of your country, and often they will use shameless means to put pressure on you. But what I want to do is to jointly develop, we produce technical funds, and we produce manual funds, and we get half the profit. What you think is a political issue, but in my eyes, it is a business. If you have mines and I have money, I must ensure that you and I can get the greatest benefits so that we can benefit and win-win. I have a plan, why not take a look at it first?"
Adel nodded and looked at Lin Ya beside Su Bai and handed over a plan. Adel and the other two looked carefully, and their faces became a little unhappy. Because the plan, the center of this plan meant that they planned to jointly develop the minerals and could only be sold to the Eastern Heavenly Dynasty. The dividends of interest were half, but they needed to provide part of the use rights of the West African port. Opening the port is equivalent to opening the national gates, allowing countries like the Celestial Empire to enter and exit the national gates of their own countries at will. This is simply a joke!
"Mr. Su Bai, do you think we will agree to this request?" Adel was not angry, at least he seemed calm in his tone.
"I think you will definitely not agree, because this plan was not formulated by me, but by my country. Will you agree? To be honest, I don't care at all. Because I am just a participant in this business, I can get benefits if I become, and I will not lose anything if I fail."
Adel was stunned, looked at Su Bai suspiciously, and after looking at Lin Ya, he couldn't help thinking, could this Su Bai be uncontrolled by their country? He would actually say such words!
"The port is opened just to transport these minerals more conveniently. There will be no loss in all costs to West Africa. Moreover, once the right to use the port is opened, a batch of arms given to West Africa free of charge can reach West Africa more quickly. Isn't this a good thing for West Africa?" Lin Ya pushed her glasses and said calmly.
Adel smiled, "Miss Lin Ya said this, but you have thought that the arms that Mr. Su Bai promised to give me could not be given to me for a long time for free, and it may even be unnecessary to use the port once or twice, and your country may have obtained the right to use our country's ports from now on. I will not do this kind of business."
Su Bai sighed and looked at Lin Ya with regret, "I just said that your plan is not suitable, right? You don't believe it yet. No one is a fool."
Lin Ya sighed helplessly, thinking that this is not the plan I made. What does it mean to say to me? Did you deliberately laugh at me?
"But we are just here to contact us, and there are still discussions on everything, right?" Lin Ya looked at Adel.
Adel nodded, "Of course."
"Why would you like to talk about your cooperation with Mr. Su Bai first?" Adel looked at Su Bai with a smile, looking at the God of Wealth.
"I want to establish a special economic zone here, like Donago. Of course, I won't want any provincial jurisdiction. After all, you are still stable. But I hope to get some profitable policies, such as tax exemptions in some places, or land prices, and some cheaper. The planned investment is 3 billion US dollars, and the number is not large, but after the President reads the plan, he will definitely not think that the investment is too small."
Qinglong hurriedly took out a plan and handed it to Adel.
Adel also restrained his disappointment and hurriedly opened the plan.
Just seeing the ordinary, Adel had already taken a breath of cold air.
Opening special economic zones and building factories are the most common, but several of the industries have forced Adel to take them seriously - military factories, shipyards and even high-tech industries. There is nothing great about these things, but the hidden things below are these technologies! Military technology, shipbuilding technology and even high-tech! If these things are brought into your own country, what kind of glory will it create for your country's future development? Even some low-end technologies, even some technologies that are only not much higher than those of you, those behind.
"I know that many countries are unwilling to provide these technologies to you poor and backward countries, for all aspects. But for me, I am not a politician of a certain country, nor do I want to firmly control your country. All I want is profit and profit in the business field. The more you can provide me, the more benefits I can get, and of course the more profit I get. I can leave the military industry to the West African government to manage. Once the shipyard is built, I will promise to build three warships for your country after the construction is completed. The specifications and technology of the West African government does not need to worry about it."
"Mr. Su Bai is really a big deal." Adel's eyes were almost red.
"This is just the first step in cooperation, there is nothing big or bad." Su Bai smiled faintly and signaled Qinglong to get the goods. So Qinglong took out another document and handed it to Adel, "This is my personal gift to Mr. Adel. I didn't expect you to bring the Prime Minister and the Minister, so I had to send my kindness to your houses in a few days."
Adel opened the file and his heart was immediately thrilled.
The property rights of a certain island, as well as a check of 50 million US dollars and one percent of the shares of Imperial Bank.
This move is also over 100 million! And Adel is actually very rich in private and can't say anything to refuse!
What Su Bai gave was so tempting and completely powerless to refuse.
"Mr. Su Bai, I'm so kind... I'll let my team deal with Mr. Su Bai's team immediately."
Su Bai smiled and nodded, then looked at Lin Ya, "Go and do it."
Lin Ya nodded regretfully, got up and was taken away by the Prime Minister. She didn't know where to discuss the special economic zone.
"Mr. Su Bai, Miss Lin Ya should be by your side on behalf of your country, right?" Adel asked with a smile.
Su Bai said bluntly, "Yes, but I hope you don't misunderstand our relationship. We are just cooperation. She is not my boss, and I don't need to obey any of her arrangements. I am a highly independent place. So you don't have to be afraid that my cooperation with you will have any political color. I need you to provide me with a lot of help in establishing a special economic zone. If you have any difficulties, you can negotiate directly with me. If you need to make concessions, I will definitely not let you suffer any losses. I have money, and you have power. As long as you don't hurt your rule, I think you have no reason to refuse, right?"
Adel smiled and nodded, "That's certainly, but I'm really powerless to do anything about the rare minerals. The price given by your country is not worth my worries."
"I understand, I don't care. Your business can't be negotiated, at least our business has been negotiated, right?" Su Bai said with a smile.
Adel nodded, then moved his heart and said with a smile: "I heard Miss Lin Ya say that Mr. Su Bai is willing to lend us free of charge. I wonder how much Mr. Su Bai can borrow for us in West Africa?"
"Then how much do you want to borrow? I know that there are some problems in your country's economy. If I can help, as long as the amount is not too large, there will be no problem at all."
"I hope I can borrow a billion dollars." Adel blurted out immediately.
Su Bai sneered, "You're crazy about being poor, you think I'm a kid, right?" Wouldn't it be better if you want one hundred billion! Damn, just focus on the word "free" right?
Su Bai said nothing and just smiled. Adel suddenly felt that the amount was too large. He couldn't help but smile awkwardly, "Mr. Su doesn't know that our country has many problems now, and it has always been inadequate to make ends meet. It is urgent to inject funds into funds to solve the current urgent needs. Although it seems stable now, in fact, if this continues for a long time, society will inevitably be in turmoil. Our country is not as happy as it seems on the surface, and many problems are filled with them. Hunger, poverty, etc. If I cannot solve these problems during my tenure, I am really ashamed of the citizens who trust me."
"I already knew this before I came." Su Bai nodded, not surprised that Adel told the truth to him. "But since it is a free loan, I can't get it for the time being even if I have a billion dollars, right? Moreover, I am a businessman and value interests. Establishing a special economic zone here is the best help to your country. I hope the President will not make things difficult for me."
Adel looked disappointed, but then asked unwillingly: "How is Mr. Su Bai willing to lend us this fund? As long as I can agree, Mr. Su Bai can raise it."
"I don't need anything." Su Bai said with a smile.
Adel was stunned and frowned, "Mr. Su Bai, I really won't give in to the rare mineral matters, but other things are easy to discuss."
"Your Excellency the President misunderstood. This is not about retreating to advance, but I really have no demand for you, because my focus will not be all here. I will also go to other countries to develop. This time I came here, just to help the country mention this matter."
Don’t focus on this? How can you, the God of Wealth, just drop a few gold coins and leave?
"Mr. Su Bai, is the investment environment here bad?"
Chapter completed!
