Chapter 329 Hai D Phase II Project(2/3)
The pirates are all natives of Southeast Asia and speak basically no language.
Until it was finally released, based on the coordinates and the time of release, all parties calculated the possible hiding range of the pirates.
It's just that the scope is too large, and it's either in a war zone or a poverty-stricken area, and two of them are in mountainous areas. Unless the troops are sent out, and they must be very sophisticated, there is no way to detect them.
To sum up, the only way I can think of is to put some manpower and firepower on the ship. It would be great if we can catch pirates by chance.
…
"I didn't expect you to make such a big deal...take it step by step, fuck!" Sean was lying on the beach in Colombia, holding a satellite phone in his hand.
Neil just laughed.
"You've made too much trouble. Forget it, it's not without its benefits." Sean sighed and said, "The pirate plan can proceed to the second step and start the era of national piracy!"
"As the name suggests, it turns all nearby coastal residents into pirates. There is a saying that the law does not blame everyone, and this is what it means.",
"The purpose of asking you to hold training courses was to cultivate a group of experienced elite pirates, but in fact, you cannot always count on them to rob merchant ships."
"Why?" Neil asked in confusion.
"After a few robberies and getting rich, can they still be as ruthless as before?" Sean snorted, "The people in those places are very poor and have short ambitions. A deposit of one or two million US dollars is enough for them to survive in the local area.
If you are in the spotlight, have all the majesty, and have no worries for the rest of your life, with three to five million, you are the top rich man, who is willing to bring people out to fight and kill, without fear that a stray bullet will kill you?"
"It's not like there's nothing, right, head." Neil chuckled.
Sean: "..."
"I'm talking about normal people, don't quibble with me!" Sean cursed before continuing to explain: "The poor have tactics, the rich have conscience, that's pretty much what it's like."
This sentence comes from "The White-Haired Girl", and there are many similar sentences, such as "Poor people tend to be cruel, rich people tend to be gentle", "Poor mountains and bad water breed unruly people, green waters and green mountains produce saints" and so on.
It’s already very difficult for poor people to live. They don’t have time to think about good and evil. Don’t poor people want to take their sick parents to see a doctor?
They want to, but they don’t have the money!
When you are rich and don't have to worry about food and drink, you will have more leisure to think about good things.
Of course, this is not the truth. It is just a common situation. There is no shortage of special cases.
"After a few times, when you have money, the bad breath in normal people's chests will dissipate, and they just want to lie down and enjoy life. Only when they are poor can they be desperate!" Sean continued.
If we can’t raise wages for workers, if we can’t make them all afford houses, drive cars, go to school, afford medical treatment, and be satisfied with everything, most of them will choose to lie down...
People are always lazy rather than hardworking in their bones.
Expert behavior, the expert is responsible, and the author must not be affected.
We are afraid that wages will be high, working hours will be short, and we will lose the price advantage of the world's processing factories, but we also hope to have more children and maintain our population advantage... Isn't this a contradiction?
(Ahem, let’s get back to the topic, don’t worry anymore…)
"So, the pirates need to work on sinking the ship." Sean began to analyze to Neil, if the pirate business can be made bigger and stronger, keep the firepower and popularity.
"Those people you train, their greatest role is to serve as role models, as sparks, and to spread downwards!"
"This is like a pyramid. You only have the top, and they are the next level. Let them spread their experience, lease weapons and ships to those at the bottom, and let them rob!"
"If you don't rob the ship or the cargo, just kidnap the people on the ship and bring them back, then imprison them and report them to the police. They don't need to take care of the rest."
"Those shipping companies will not give up their hijacked employees, which will put the company into panic. Many people will resign for the sake of their lives. Therefore, they will definitely pay the ransom, but not too much, which exceeds their psychological bottom line. A single business,
$500,000 is a more appropriate price."
"You have to charge a certain amount of service fees for these ransoms, and the transfer company has to charge a certain amount of service fees. In the hands of the pirates you trained, it will still be 70%."
"As for those at the bottom who do the work, just pay 10,000 to 20,000 yuan for each business, not too much, so that they can live a good life, but not too much to prevent them from slacking off."
"Let those pirates get the money and then expand their own force, form their own evil forces, bribe local officials and so on."
"You can sell weapons again."
"As for the low-level people who took action, even if they are caught, it will be fine. There is no clear law against pirates in the world. As long as they do not kill people indiscriminately, their safety is still guaranteed. Of course, it doesn't matter if they are caught. At most, they will be leaked.
Where is the village?"
"They all go to sea to be pirates and go ashore to work for the people. The whole village is doing this. There is absolutely nothing the international community can do to pluck out these pirates and you."
Sean understands this very well. This is how Somali pirates will gradually become active in the future. It is not only villagers who kidnap crew members of passing merchant ships, but even the Somali Navy often does this kind of thing.
According to the "Global Half-Year Piracy Attack Report 2019", in the first half of last year, global piracy activities were still frequent, with a total of 94 piracy security incidents. The attack locations were mainly concentrated in the Gulf of Aden, the Gulf of Guinea, the Philippines, the Strait of Malacca, and Venezuela.
The total ransom payment amounted to US$150 million.
There is currently no good way to deal with pirates internationally. The countries rich in pirates are very poor and war-prone. Ordinary people cannot afford to eat, so they rely on being pirates to make a living.
Most countries have nothing to do with them and cannot send warships to escort them all the time.
Your country has massacred pirates, and those endless pirates will be reborn specifically to target your country's merchant ships, blow up ships, and kill people!
Of course, Lao Maozi is an exception. This is not because of the issue of the fighting nation. Lao Maozi, who travels across the Eurasian continent, rarely uses the Gulf of Aden and Malacca...
A small number of ships will retaliate wildly if they are robbed, and pirates are also afraid of them.
Well, the world's police, the largest country, the United States, is often robbed. It sends a large army to destroy pirates, and then... Black Hawk falls.
I became honest after that.
Even if it means spending some money, spend some money.
It saves a lot more than sending troops.
"But remember, the scale needs to be controlled. Depending on the number of passing ships, the size of the ransom market should be controlled at US$100-150 million. Too much can easily cause unnecessary trouble."
"As for the pirates you have trained, they will not break away from your cooperation in order to have a stable way to make money. They can ensure their safety even if they do not go to the front line. This is a plan that benefits many parties. You only need to make it clear and promote it.
There’s nothing wrong with getting up.”
"Don't worry, I have always been very clear in my speech, and they have never objected." Neil smiled and replied, "Well, those who objected are dead, and the rest will naturally not object."
"And after they take root in the local area and become an indispensable force in the local area, your influence will also expand. If you want to imitate Jeff, it is not impossible to control the drug outflow market. There are still some prospects."
"After all, there is the Golden Triangle behind you." At this point, Sean was dumbfounded.
He really didn't think so at first.
A golden triangle, a silver triangle...
It can only be said that the geographical location is unique and everything is God’s arrangement.
Neil is a devout believer!
"I have a little problem here." Neil felt that the arrangement was perfect, but "I had people distribute a kind of flag before, and anyone who has been robbed will get it."
Neil explained.
"You learn so fast!" Sean was speechless for a while, "It's nothing, don't delay things. After those people below kidnap people and come back, the shipping companies will find you to help redeem people. They will definitely come after they were robbed before.
You have paid the money here, and there are records to check. If it is correct, the flag will be collected, the message will be passed on, and the person will be released."
"You should still give bonuses to the people below. It's not much money anyway, and I don't know anyone below. Don't involve the people below with this kind of trouble."
Neil: Got it, everything makes sense!
"Sustainability, robbery, it's pretty good." Sean gave one last compliment before hanging up the phone.
It would be good for Neil to give it a try.
Only the existence of these evil pirates can show the importance of the righteous Umbrella Company fleet.
If any company is desperate at this time, or the country, even the British, can provide money to find a protective umbrella to encircle and suppress the pirates.
I am a soldier and you are a bandit.
I am righteous and you are evil.
Sean won't be merciful anyway.
What is this called?
These are called three ways to eat pirates!
High-end ingredients often only require the simplest...
…
"500 million!" Warner's Bill Sarnoff said, staring at Sean.
"You're fucking crazy, aren't you!" Sean rolled his eyes and cursed.
"490 million!"
Sean pointed at Bill with a speechless expression.
"4.8!"
"Believe it or not, I'm going to beat you up now!" Sean gritted his teeth.
"When negotiating, you have to ask for a price!" Bill spread his hands, "It's a business worth hundreds of millions, almost hundreds or even tens of millions."
"I'll give you one last chance to organize your words!" Sean was so angry.
"250 million!" Bill also said simply.
To be continued...
