The Light of Domestic Products: The whole world begs me to sell

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is located in central Africa, bordering Uganda and Burundi in the east, South Sudan and Central Africa in the north, and a country with almost the same name in the west - Congo.

In the impression of many people all over the world, the Democratic Republic of the Congo is a poor, backward and war-ridden place.

Many people even know the country of the Democratic Republic of the Congo because of a highly contagious virus-Ebola.

That's right.

The Ebola virus that frightens the African people was first discovered in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is indeed such a country, with poverty and backwardness, food shortages, and no basic medical facilities.

Coupled with the long-term domestic war, the people of the whole country are in dire straits. Over the past few decades, like Burundi, it has been reduced to the least developed country in the world.

but.

The situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo is somewhat different from Burundi.

Burundi is a typical agricultural and animal husbandry country, and its main pillar industries are coffee and tea.

The whole country is also small in size and has a large population. In addition, there are no rich mineral resources and no outlets to the sea. It is really difficult to develop.

And what about the Democratic Republic of the Congo?
The Democratic Republic of the Congo has a vast territory, with a land area of ​​more than 230 million square kilometers. This area ranks second in the African continent and No. 11 in the world. It is far larger than the British and French powers!
Not only is it large in size, but its geographical conditions can also be called the most advantageous country in all of Africa.

As we all know, most African countries are very short of water due to climate reasons, but this sentence does not apply to the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Under the influence of climate, the Democratic Republic of the Congo has only two seasons: dry season and rainy season. From May to November every year, it rains almost every other day, and the annual rainfall is usually more than 5 millimeters.

Adequate rainfall allows crops to thrive, and in addition to sufficient rainfall, the second largest river in Africa, the "Congo River", also runs through its entire territory!
You must know that the water resources of the Congo River are more abundant than the water resources of the Yangtze River in China. In this way, even if there is a river in the dry season, there will be sufficient water resources!

In addition, the arable land area of ​​the Democratic Republic of the Congo is even more enviable, with an area of ​​12 billion mu of arable land.

What is the concept of 12 billion mu of arable land?
my country's existing arable land area is 19 billion mu, while our country's population is 14 billion, and they are less than [-] million...

To put it bluntly, given their unique geographical conditions, even mechanized farming can make a fortune.

Do you think this is over?
not at all!
In addition to arable land and water resources, the Democratic Republic of the Congo also has very rich mineral resources!
As the "heart of Africa", the Democratic Republic of the Congo is known as "the world's raw material warehouse", "geological miracle", and "China-Africa gemstone base".

Let's just say that when the periodic table of elements is opened, basically all the chemical elements can be found. The DRC has all kinds of known mineral resources in the world, and all of them are world-class minerals.

The latest proven reserves are:

Copper - 7500 million tons, accounting for 15% of the world's total.

Cobalt (needed for lithium batteries, now 35 tons) - 450 million tons, accounting for about 50% of the world's total.

Tantalum and niobium ore (rare metal) - 3000 million tons, accounting for 80% of the world's total.

Diamond reserves are about 2.06 million carats, accounting for 23% of the world's total.

12 billion acres of arable land, abundant water resources, and minerals, what else is there?

Have!
In addition to minerals, there is also the largest natural forest in Africa, which is rich in dozens of precious woods.

In addition, large areas such as the western coastal basin, the central central basin, and the eastern lakes of the Democratic Republic of the Congo are also found to contain a large amount of oil and gas resources.

At present, the proven offshore oil reserves are 3 million barrels and the land reserves are 150.66 million barrels.

Offshore reserves of natural gas are 200 billion cubic meters, and land reserves are 100 billion cubic meters...

This...whatever you want.

Let's put it this way, is it not an exaggeration to say that "the family has a mine" and "the rich are filthy"?
harm.

It stands to reason that with such abundant resources, not to mention being as rich as some oil sellers in the Middle East, at least it is not a problem to have enough food and clothing, right?
But what?
The Democratic Republic of the Congo directly sat on the chair of the world's poorest country, and even became an important poverty alleviation base of the United Nations.

In addition to high-level corruption and constant internal strife, the most important reason is that most of the economic lifeline here is controlled by foreign capital.

To put it bluntly, although there are many minerals, most of the resource exploitation rights are in the hands of foreigners.

For example, mining companies from more than ten countries including Belgium, the United Kingdom, and Aramco have entered the Democratic Republic of the Congo for mineral resource development. Even the well-known company China Molybdenum Co., Ltd. has large business projects in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

and so.

As a matter of course, in view of the chaotic domestic situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, in order to protect the property safety of their companies in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the great powers have dispatched peacekeeping troops (armed forces) to protect them...

Even if necessary, he will guide the battle between the ZF army and the rebel army, or guide the battle between the rebel army and the ZF army...

In short, for the benefit of all parties, the turmoil in the Democratic Republic of the Congo has never stopped.

……

DRC, Camp Lemonnier.

It is a well-known secret that the United States has sent a large number of special forces to the African continent to perform various tasks. According to statistics, Africa is already the second largest military involvement area of ​​the United States after the Middle East.

At this time, there were nearly [-] special forces soldiers stationed in the Lemonier camp. Their main task on weekdays was to provide tactical guidance to the ZF army and help train the ZF army to fight against the rebels.

of course.

Ami's purpose in doing this is naturally to use military power to expand its influence in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and if necessary, it can even use this to weaken the interests of other countries in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, such as targeting Yan's mining companies.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Major Commander Beckett received a message from the African Strategic Command as soon as he returned to the camp.

"Captain, a new mission instruction has been sent from the headquarters."

"Okay, give it to me."

In the command post, Beckett, who was wearing a US military camouflage uniform, took off his general cap and put it on the table, and then received the information.

After briefly reading the information, Beckett immediately looked up at the staff officer with some displeasure.

"What fuuk!"

"Entering factories to destroy 'lithium battery' production equipment? Burundi?!"

"Humph!"

After a cold snort of dissatisfaction, Beckett put the information back on the table, stood up and took a cup to make a cup of coffee.

While making coffee, he complained:

"Kane, are the people in the headquarters all out of their minds now? Are you so idle every day?"

"Destroying the production equipment of a civilian factory actually requires our special operations team to be dispatched. This is because we feel that we are so idle every day, and we need to give us extra meals, right?"

"This group of people with questionable brains really think we are idle, why don't they arrange for us to go to Syria? I heard that the B2 team stationed in Syria smuggled oil and all made a fortune. Everyone has made countless dollars! Dollar!"

Staff Kane listened to Beckett's complaints and shrugged helplessly.

"Sir, it is said that this mission was sent by Baigong, and it was specially arranged by Colonel Blazer."

Colonel Blazer?
Beckett was taken aback for a moment, and then he heard the intelligence agent Kane continue to say:
"Sir, the mission target Phoenix Group this time is not easy, they are a very powerful company from the Yan Kingdom!"

"Yan country enterprise?"

"Ah."

Kane nodded and continued:

"You may not be aware that this Yan country company poses a great threat to us in the United States. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the most powerful competitor that Aramco companies have encountered in the past 50 years."

"In the past year, they have not only disregarded our ban, sold chips to Mao Xiongguo privately to disrupt our sanctions plan, but also openly provoked our military in recent months, and even publicly released information about the aircraft carrier 'Lincoln' on social media. Satellite image."

"In short, everything they are doing now is against us. Now not only Congress is very upset, but even the military is very angry with them, and they all hope to have the opportunity to teach them a lesson."

"They only had a very ordinary bicycle assembly plant in Burundi's industrial park before. This time they got the news that they will build a new 'semi-solid lithium battery' production line in Burundi. This batch of equipment is not only expensive, but most importantly."

"They are against us in this way, how can the higher authorities sit idly by and let them develop and expand in Burundi safely?"

As soon as the words were finished, Captain Beckett narrowed his eyes for an instant, and began to think while holding a coffee cup.

Yanguo Enterprise, Phoenix Group?
No wonder the news came from Baigong himself, no wonder the C4 action team was dispatched directly in such a rage, it seems that the higher authorities attach great importance to this matter.

In particular, Colonel Blazer personally arranged this matter and was led by the military, so it was even more important.

Thinking of this, Shellhead put the coffee cup in his hand back on the table, and asked in a low voice:
"Kane, which team do you think is better to send to carry out the mission this time?"

"Squad, Tyler."

"Taylor?"

"Yes, Captain."

"Taylor hates the Yan people very much. He must be very happy to do this. He can lead a small team to carry out the mission."

"but……"

"According to intelligence, there are at least 20 more days before their production equipment arrives in Burundi. Before that, we'd better keep it secret. After all, Yan Kingdom also has peacekeeping troops and intelligence personnel in Congo. Their noses are very good. .”

Beckett nodded slightly. What Carey said was right, this matter was indeed going to be done secretly.

You must know that although the armed forces of various countries on the border of the Democratic Republic of the Congo have exercised restraint on the surface, there have been more secret spying on each other.

Once it is exposed in advance, it will be a failure.

He took a deep breath and said:
"Kayli, I will leave it to you to formulate the action plan. The buffer period of more than 20 days is just enough to plan a detailed action plan. Be sure to keep it secret."

"By the way, if you need high-altitude reconnaissance of industrial parks, you can call military satellites for high-precision reconnaissance."

Kane shook his head, spread his hands and said:

"No, not at all."

"The information provided by Baigong this time is very comprehensive. Not only does it have the exact arrival time, but we also got a detailed map of the Phoenix Industrial Park. We even know in advance where the equipment will be placed after it arrives."

"Don't worry, this mission is safe."

Beckett immediately realized that there must be American spies inside the Phoenix Group, and their positions were not low.

Otherwise, how could it be possible to know in advance where the goods are placed before they arrive?

He breathed a sigh of relief, the plan would be much easier with detailed information.

Picking up some cold coffee and gulping it down, he said happily:

"Okay, Carey, you can arrange it. This time, they must suffer heavy losses!"

……

the other side.

In the Phoenix Group office.

"Boss, the purchased 'semi-solid lithium battery' complete production line equipment and 'lithium iron phosphate battery' production equipment and supporting related equipment have been shipped and set off."

"According to the current shipping time, it takes about 20 days to reach Tanzania, and then it will be transported to the factory by land."

"Su Feixiang also gave feedback on the latest situation of the Burundi factory this morning. The production plants and lines of the two production lines are all ready. The equipment can be installed and debugged as soon as it arrives, and it will be put into production soon!"

After the words fell, Hu Lai was also very happy.

Once the Burundi industrial base has lithium battery production capacity, it will be able to integrate resources with existing lithium mines to form a complete lithium battery industry chain, and the business in Burundi has really stepped up to a new level.

"but……"

Just when Hu Lai was happy, Director Zhang neatly placed the purchase details in his hand on Hu Lai's desk.

"However, the equipment prices of these two production lines are indeed a bit high."

"In terms of equipment, we all use fully automatic production equipment. The production line of 'lithium iron phosphate' is more than 3 million, and the production line of 'semi-solid lithium battery' has reached 7 million, and the supporting production line is close to 12 billion. ..."

Before Director Zhang could finish speaking, Hu Lai waved his hand and said:
"Old Zhang, don't worry too much about money."

"We have no choice but to purchase automation equipment. How can there be so many industrial workers in Burundi for us to use? So a little more expensive price is acceptable."

"As long as the production line can operate normally and Burundi will be built into our lithium battery production base, our product output will soon increase and radiate to East Africa."

Having said that, Hu Lai paused for a moment, and the words of the director of the factory also reminded him.

"However, this batch of equipment is really valuable. You specifically told Su Feixiang that you must pay attention to the safety of the production equipment, and don't make any mistakes."

Director Zhang nodded emphatically.

"it is good!"

……

Time passed quickly, and it was already 20 days later when Hu Lai heard the news about Burundi coming back.

The goods sent to Burundi have safely arrived at the port and are being unloaded, and the next step is to pull them back to the industrial park from the port.

In the early morning of the next day, Su Feixiang, the person in charge of the Burundi Industrial Park, appeared at the gate of the park in person, and in front of his eyes were all the convoys going to the port to pick up the goods.

The equipment was expensive this time, and Su Feixiang was also very careful. He not only dispatched Li Meng who was in charge of logistics to pick up the goods, but also asked Captain Xiao of the security team to lead the core backbone to set off with the car.

Seeing Su Feixiang appear at the gate, Li Meng and Captain Xiao also walked over.

On weekdays, Su Feixiang was quite polite to this special soldier who had retired from the army and joined the Phoenix Group. At this time, seeing Captain Xiao in full suit and armed, he admired him even more.

He took the lead in saying to Captain Xiao:
"Captain Xiao, I have worked hard for you today!"

"Don't work hard, make sure to complete the task!"

Captain Xiao replied seriously, but Su Feixiang was used to it.

In the past two years in Burundi, he also got to know Captain Xiao more or less. As a veteran of Yan Guo Special Forces, Captain Xiao lived a peaceful life on weekdays, but he was very serious when it came to working hours, and he always regulated himself with high standards.

After greeting Captain Xiao, Su Feixiang's eyes fell on Li Meng.

Before he could speak, Li Meng, who had a bright smile on his face, spoke first.

"President Su, don't worry, I've taken care of everything at the port, no problem."

"We will rush back as soon as we mention the goods. I have calculated that we should be able to arrive safely around 5 pm."

Facing Li Meng, Su Feixiang was not as oppressive as he was when facing Captain Xiao. Hearing that Li Meng took care of everything in an orderly manner, Su Feixiang was completely relaxed and nodded to Li Meng with satisfaction.

I have to say that Li Meng's work really made him feel at ease.

Although Li Meng in front of him joined the Phoenix Group more than a year ago, he soon showed a very strong working ability.

Six months ago, after Lao Li, the former head of logistics, returned to China because he had been away from home for too long, Su Feixiang simply let Li Meng take full charge of the logistics procurement business of the industrial park.

Li Meng also lived up to Su Feixiang's trust, not only managed the logistics business in an orderly manner, but also gradually became Su Feixiang's right-hand man in other businesses.

If there is no accident, then he will propose to the group that Li Meng be in charge of some more important businesses.

After a few simple instructions, Li Meng and Captain Xiao were ready to set off.

"Okay, then I won't delay you, go back early and be careful on the road!"

"it is good!"

……

At the same time, as the convoy of the Phoenix Group slowly drove towards the dumb port in Tanzania, three cars from the Congo-Kinshasa border also slowly drove towards Burundi...

After successfully passing the border crossing, there was a radio sound in the head of a dilapidated SUV car.

"Operation Center, I am B1, we have passed point C and are entering area C3."

"Received, B1 has passed point C and is entering area C3."

After a while, Captain Beckett's voice came from the intercom.

"B1, after entering the C3 area, lurk according to the plan. According to the latest intelligence, the target will arrive at the designated area on time at 6:[-] pm. Everything is going according to plan!"

"Please answer."

"B1 received, proceed as planned."

When the sound of the intercom stopped, Taylor, the team leader sitting in the passenger seat of the first car, tapped on the window lightly.

A fierce light flickered.

"Tell the brothers in the back, after reaching the C3 area, lurk to recover your strength, and all radios are silent."

"At two o'clock in the morning, sneak into the target area as planned. This time, we will set off a big firework for them."
