Chapter 283 Goodbye...
May 1, 22 years.
At the pier at Changi Base.
Sullivan and Tom looked at the base reluctantly, especially Sullivan. He was the person in charge of the base, but now he had to give it up. He felt extremely aggrieved.
And Shilok Fernando, who came to see them off, looked at the robbers with indifference.
There was no communication between the two sides. Although the secret agreement did not stipulate that America could not destroy the base's infrastructure, the Sullivans did not order the destruction of the infrastructure here.
However, many American soldiers were filled with anger and smashed the beds and electrical appliances in the dormitory, blocked the toilets, etc.
In fact, Hillock doesn't care about the US military destroying the base, because the facilities here will definitely not be used by the Homo Sapiens company, but will be completely rebuilt.
Woo woo woo…
The shrill sound of the whistle echoed over Star Island.
The American flag at Changi Base slowly descends.
Sullivan and Tom boarded a troop transport with frustrated looks on their faces.
Yang Fan, the group's psychological counselor who was also at the dock, crossed his arms and said to himself calmly, "Goodbye...America!"
Under the escort of the Second Pacific Fleet in Luzon.
The Seventh Fleet, together with the American soldiers at the Changi base, left the Strait of Malacca in disgrace and headed for the Ceylon Ocean to reunite with the Fifth Fleet.
Inside Star Island, those exquisite people felt as if the sky had fallen.
Many people have already purchased plane tickets and are ready to leave Sing Tao Island and head to Australia, Western Europe, and North America to follow their foreign masters.
Others can escape, but the boss behind Temasek Investments cannot. After all, his family is the dark side of Sing Tao. If Sing Tao falls, the Lee family will not be much better off.
As a reinforced regiment, the Malacca Regiment has a strength of 6,000 people, but only 1,500 of them are currently in place.
Additional troops are being mobilized from Siam.
As the persons in charge of the Changi base, Shilok Fernando and Yang Fan, the two have different jobs. Shilok is mainly responsible for military work, while Yang Fan is, to some extent, actually the temporary governor of Xingdao.
After bidding farewell to America's Seventh Fleet and garrison, Hillock and Yang Fan each started their own work.
Hillock was responsible for cleaning up the entire Changi base.
Yang Fan took his subordinates and went directly to the headquarters building of Temasek Holdings.
He sat in the armored vehicle and looked at the Xingdao people on the streets on both sides.
Some people looked like they didn't care.
Some people's eyes were filled with hostility.
Some people have very complicated expressions.
But there was more fear and confusion.
The force of the Sapiens Company suddenly appeared, and many people were extremely unfamiliar with it.
In addition, the unique giant enterprise model is not liked by everyone, especially the wealthy people who claim to be elites, who are ready to escape.
Sapiens Company did not care too much about the escape of those elites.
Places like Sing Tao rely on the service industry and geographical advantages to thrive. They don't have many resources of their own. Most of the money of the wealthy is kept in European and American banks, or invested in European and American financial products.
Now, if we directly cut off these wealthy people physically, it would seem too ugly and difficult to cut them off. After all, these wealthy people are not fools, and European and American financial institutions are not fools either.
Now that the Sapiens company has come out into the open, it still has to abide by certain rules.
For example, Ceylon’s previous foreign debt problem was fully repaid by taking advantage of this favorable situation.
Sing Tao's money is not important.
The geographical location of this place is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
It is now very easy for the Homo Sapiens Company to take over Sing Tao Island. As long as they continue to block the Strait of Malacca and force transport ships to use the Kra Canal and the Dangmun Canal, Sing Tao Island will collapse within a few months.
In fact, there is no need to force the shipping company.
As long as it is confirmed that the radiation level of the Kra Canal has reached the safety limit, transport ships traveling between East Asia and West Asia will most likely choose the Kra Canal.
…
Armored vehicles were parked in front of the headquarters building of Temasek Investments.
Li Guming personally greeted him at the door.
Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him who was so nervous that he was sweating profusely, Yang Fan glanced at him and said, "Mr. Li, let's talk about Temasek's investment!"
"Please come in, Mr. Yang." Li Guming quickly led the way.
Go up to the office on the top floor.
Yang Fan sat directly in the first seat. He smiled and glanced at the dozen or so Temasek executives present. Although they concealed it well, the resentment and anger could not escape the observation of the new humans' micro-expressions.
"Everyone, what are Temasek's future plans for investment? You can speak freely."
Li Guming remained silent.
Huang Dayong, who had studied the Homo Sapiens company, could not help but smile bitterly in his heart. With the model of the Homo Sapiens company in Luzon and other regions, what choice did Sing Tao have?
If you don't answer this question well, it will be a fatal question.
Peter Lee, who hated Sapiens very much, could no longer hold back: "Temasek Investment is Sing Tao's industry, so it is natural to maintain the status quo."
"I think it's better for Temasek Investments to maintain the status quo. After all, a sudden change in the company's business model may lead to internal chaos," said Lee Wei Xing, president of Temasek Investments, more tactfully.
Yang Fan smiled and clapped: "Very good!" Then he looked at Li Guming, the boss behind Temasek Investments: "Where is Mr. Li?"
"I..." Li Guming had obviously heard the other party's implication.
Regarding these guys who won't cry until they see the coffin, Yang Fan smiled and shook his head:
"It doesn't matter. I'm a very democratic person. We can talk slowly. If we can't reach an agreement today, we can talk for a week. If we can't reach an agreement in a week, we can talk for a month or a year. I'm not in a hurry!"
If you are not in a hurry, and the negotiations really take a few months, Sing Tao will be ruined, Huang Dayong smiled bitterly in his heart.
You know, the Luzon Navy is still blocking the Malacca Strait, and there is no intention to open the two safe waterways.
It is obvious that the Sapiens Company will not open the Strait of Malacca until it achieves its goal.
This is because the weak have no self-awareness and participate in the confrontation between the strong. Once they make the wrong bet, the consequences will be very serious.
Peter Li's eyes were filled with hatred: "We will not surrender, you bandits."
"We are robbers. You, an American dog, can only bark here. It's a pity that your master has already rolled out of Southeast Asia, hahaha." Yang Fan spread his hands with a smile.
"You..." Peter Li became angry and embarrassed.
Suddenly, Li Guming slapped Peter Li in the face and said, "You are a traitor. I could tolerate your tyranny before, but that was because of America's coercion. Now you want to alienate the relationship between Temasek and Sapiens, you traitor!"
Everyone was stunned by Li Guming's remarks.
However, Li Guming ignored these people and quickly surrendered to Yang Fan:
"Mr. Yang, I want to report to the company that Peter Li and others are converts to the American Black Ship, and Li Weixing is a special member of the American Franklin Foundation, and..."
Peter Li, who was beaten so hard that he saw stars, was terrified: "Fuck... Li Guming, are you crazy? The Black Ship will not let you go."
Clap, clap, clap... Yang Fan smiled and clapped: "Mr. Li is very understanding. I believe the company will understand Mr. Li's firm stance."
"It is my honor to serve the company." Li Guming showed a very honored expression on his face.
He had already given up in his heart. He thought that it didn't matter who he worked for, he was honored to be a dog for the Homo Sapiens Company .
Even though Li Peter, Li Weixing and others cursed loudly , Li Guming, who had already planned to join the Zhiren Company, didn't care at all.
