Reborn Financial Overlord
Page 514
In 1936, ten countries including Britain, France, the Soviet Union, and Turkey signed the "Convention on the Strait Regime" in Montreux, Switzerland, making it clear that Turkey has full sovereignty over the Bosporus Strait, and ships from all countries must sail in accordance with the provisions of the convention.
After World War II, NATO led by the United States and the Warsaw Pact led by the Soviet Union intensified their competition for the Strait, which became one of the causes of the Cold War.
After the Cold War, Turkey's bargaining chip for joining NATO was this seemingly inconspicuous strait, which became NATO's "weight" to check and balance Russia and the main means of controlling the Middle East.
It is precisely because it connects the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa and has extremely important political and economic influences that it has been called the "golden waterway" since ancient times.
Even the Silk Road, which originated in China, ends in Asia at the Bosporus Strait.
The goods from the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa were gathered here, which enabled the local area to accumulate a huge amount of wealth. The famous Topkapi Palace is a physical witness of this period.
Here, there are more than [-] rare porcelains from the Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, including [-] pieces of Yuan blue and white porcelain, which is the museum with the largest collection of Yuan blue and white porcelain in the world.
The sky is clear and the wind is sunny.
Large and small ships came and went from the Bosporus Strait and docked on both sides of the pier. The strong stevedores frequently loaded and unloaded goods. The piles of goods and containers witnessed the prosperity of the city of Istanbul.
Goods from the three continents of Asia, Europe and Africa will be transferred to countries on other continents through this city.
It is no exaggeration to say that it is a golden waterway.
Suddenly, there was a rush of phone ringing in the Istanbul Office of Ocean Affairs.
The supervisor, Mehmet Mendlers, pushed away the secretary in his arms and picked up the phone.
"Memet, I'm Zaulu. A Ukrainian tugboat will pass by your side in the near future. I order you not to allow them to pass."
The call was made by Minister of State Mir Zaoru, and Mehmet Mendelus only wanted to scold his mother when he heard his strong orders.
Prior to this, the Ukrainian tugboat owner Hong Kong Thousand Sail Gaming Co., Ltd., which Zaulu said, provided him with a friendly sponsorship fee of 30 US dollars and promised that if their tugboat could pass the Bosphorus smoothly, he would You can also get an additional $500 million in labor costs.
But now, an order from Zaoglu has wiped out the $500 million he might have gotten.
Why Mehmet Mendelus knew very well.
The big guy that Qianfan Gaming Company hauled was a world-wide strategic aircraft carrier.
But so what?
An aircraft carrier without any weapons and equipment, even if it is allowed to pass by, it is impossible to have any impact on Turkey.
"Mr. Minister, why is this? Is there any reason for us to do this?"
"Mendeles, are you questioning my orders?"
Officials crushed people to death.
Although Mendelus had many reluctances in his heart, he had no choice but to agree to this order.
"Damn bastard, as long as you earn your own money and don't allow others to drink soup, I curse you to hell."
After hanging up the phone, Memet Mendelus cursed angrily.
Both of them knew well that the aircraft carrier hauled by Qianfan Gaming Company was not used as an offshore casino as they said.
But in terms of interests, there is no direct conflict of interest between Turkey and China, and Mehmet Mendlers must have done this out of interest considerations.
However, Memet Mendelus didn't think he was doing it for the national interest.
The relationship between Zaulu and the Republican Party of the United States has always been very close. As the Secretary of Defense, Zaulu has not lost money in purchasing weapons and equipment.
For a top strategic weapon like an aircraft carrier, if Ukraine and China successfully conclude a deal and create a precedent, it will break the monopoly of several major arms dealers in the United States on more advanced weapons.
If you want to get it with your ass, this matter must have been inspired by the Americans.
But the scolding is all scolding, the order has been issued, and Memet Mendelus has no other choice, so he has to contact the naval command in Ankara.
140 nautical miles away from the Bosporus Strait, the tugboat Blade, flying the Ukrainian flag, dragged a huge steel monster slowly on the sea.
The monster is very big, unlike ordinary ships, there are white lines drawn on the flat deck, which seem to be the signs of the airstrip.
This is the semi-finished aircraft carrier Walangge purchased by Hong Kong Qianfan Gaming Company from the Nikolayev Shipyard in Ukraine for US$2000 million. It is mainly used to develop a new type of casino on the high seas.
Of course, the above statement is pure nonsense.
"Mr. Peng, I really appreciate your contribution to the country."
On board the Walang Pavilion.
A middle-aged man with a clean body and a capable temperament walked up to Peng San who was leaning on the deck and admiring the sea view and said.
Peng San stretched his arms lazily and raised his head, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Brother Wang, why don't you look in the mirror?"
These words sound a bit insulting.
Wang Guozhu was stunned for a moment, feeling as if someone was saying, why don't you take a pee and look after yourself.
But he knew that Peng San definitely didn't mean that.
really.
Peng San threw away a cigarette and lit one comfortably, with a serious look on his face.
"Look at you, with black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin. Look at me again, with the same black hair, black eyes, and yellow skin. We are either the people of dawn or the descendants of Yanhuang. Brother Wang, you said that, didn't you bury me?"
Wang Guozhu couldn't help laughing, leaned over the fire that Peng San let come over, lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.
After a long time, he exhaled the smoke and looked at the blue sky and white clouds with yearning in his eyes.
"With a comrade like you, Mr. Peng, why should I worry about the revival of Huaxia?"
"Me? Brother Wang, are you praising me or hurting me? I can also run errands and take a look at the scenery, and I can't even get the leader of this boat."
"Haha, Mr. Peng is really funny. But that guy is indeed a man of heaven, I never thought you would be classmates."
"Brother Wang, don't hurt me if you don't praise me. Don't I look like a college student?"
"It's really not like that. I heard that you are Hua Hai, a student with special talents. That one is a student with excellent arts and sciences."
"Brother, can't we hit people like this?"
"Ha ha--"
The two sat together and chatted, but gradually, their expressions became serious.
Another hundred kilometers away is the Bosporus Strait. As long as you pass here, the journey back to China will be smooth.
But......
hum-
Suddenly, a loud whistle sounded on the sea.
The speed of the tugboat and the Walang Pavilion, which were moving forward slowly, slowed down.
Three "Gazantip"-class frigates and two American Perry-class frigates suddenly appeared in the field of vision, and the speed of 30 knots was not long before the Blade.
The ship-borne MK-75 76mm naval gun and MK-38 25mm machine gun, with black holes in the muzzle, make people feel the terrifying firepower of these weapons.
Wang Guozhu and Peng San looked at each other, and they both saw each other's deep worry and heavy heart.
Those who come are not good, and those who are good don't.
I am afraid it is not a good thing for the Turkish navy to come to intercept with such great fanfare.
"Boats ahead, listen. I am Rear Admiral Hasa Sadak of the Turkish Navy. You have entered Turkish waters. Now I order you to stop."
New York, Linton Park.
Seeing the young oriental face in front of him, Suzed Tenlamp always felt a little weird.
Ten Lamp didn't know if it was an illusion.
But ever since this guy called him to stop, he felt something was wrong.
Comrade?
Is this guy gay?
Thinking of Shen Jiannan's name for himself, and thinking that Shen Jiannan did not bring a female companion to come at night, Teng Lanpu felt the sunflower tighten, and even felt a dull pain.
He was a little confused.
If this guy is interested in his beauty and has any unreasonable thoughts, will he agree to it?
Promise, I have always hated gay guys.
But if you don't agree, will you offend the terrifying financial giant in front of you?
Oh, God.
This guy is looking at my beautiful hair.
Damn, he doesn't really want to fuck me.
It's all because I'm so handsome.
Shen Jiannan didn't know how to do it for a while, but Teng Lanpu thought about a lot of things.
He just finds it interesting.
At this moment, Teng Lanpu looked a bit miserable, compared with the arrogance and middle finger later, it was nothing like it.
There is nothing wrong with the outfit, a good suit and a bright red tie.
But just now, Shen Jiannan saw with his own eyes that this guy was holding a large piece of beef and devouring it like a hungry ghost reincarnated.
How long does it take to not eat meat to be so disregarding the image.
Shen Jiannan didn't have any dislike for Ten Lampu.
From a fair point of view, this guy is actually one of the best people in modern American history.
But when he met Ten Lanpu in this different time and space, Shen Jiannan really couldn't connect the current haggard looking guy with a trace of flattery and flattery on his face with the later him.
It may be that Shen Jiannan's gaze is too weird, or it may be that Shen Jiannan's aura is too strong.
Being stared at all the time, Ten Lamp felt creepy and uncomfortable, and even his breathing became a little short.
In order to relieve the uneasiness in his heart, Ten Lamp picked up a piece of steak, looked at Shen Jiannan cautiously, pushed it in front of him and said.
"Would you like to try it? It tastes very good."
He didn't eat anything all night, and Shen Jiannan was also a little hungry. He took a piece of steak from the tray carried by the waiter and took a bite.
Not to mention, the food provided by Linton Manor is all top-quality ingredients, and it is also cooked by famous chefs, and the taste is really good.
After taking a bite, the cheese is mixed with a touch of softness, and it is so fragrant that it is almost impossible to taste beef.
"It tastes really good."
Shen Jiannan praised him without hesitation.
With this praise, Ten Lamp showed a smirk and took a big bite of the steak.
"Steak is my favorite."
"Didn't you say you like hamburgers best?"
"Walter? Burger? God, I hate hamburgers. You can't imagine how bad it would be to eat hamburgers for three years in a row."
Ten Lamp's anger seemed to be stepped on his tail, so that Shen Jiannan almost choked on the food in his mouth.
He remembered that the guy in front of him once said that he liked hamburgers the most.
But it seems that it's the same as saying that you don't like money.
At this moment, Luo Wayne, who had been staring at Shen Jiannan for a long time, followed Stephen Ann and walked over.
"Mr. Shen, hello. This is my friend Mr. Luo Wayne."
This time, it was Luo Wayne's turn to feel something was wrong.
Shen Jiannan's eyes seemed to have penetrating power. Being stared at by his jet-black eyes, Luo Wayne felt horrified that his past and present lives had been seen through.
With just one glance, he never wanted to meet those star-like eyes again.
terror.
It was so scary.
Luo Wayne couldn't help but compare those eyes with the big people he had seen before, but there was no one who made him feel this irresistible and fearful feeling.
It seemed that he didn't have any secrets in the eyes of the other party.
It feels so bad.
