1511 Blocking Singapore Harbor with Ships

The Tyrannosaurus, a 15-ton Cape of Good Hope mining ship, originally belonged to the China Mining Transportation Company, but was later sold to Jiuyi International Logistics and Mining Transportation Branch for some reason.

Such a change does not have any opinions on the captain and sailors on the ship, and even they are very much in favor of this kind of thing.Because wages have increased by 30.00%!

Starting from the Friendship Port in Mauritania and unloading at the Chinese port, it takes more than two months to go back and forth.Life on board makes people feel boring and lonely, especially after leaving South Africa, the sailors have time to relax because they have been refueled and refilled along the Strait of Malacca along the way.

Life at sea is far more boring than on land.

However, there are still many people who choose this life because it is their job.

The Tyrannosaurus is in the port of Singapore, and the Tyrannosaurus has been parked here for five days. They have not completed the refueling tax increase and other procedures.

"Captain, these grandchildren's appetites are getting bigger and bigger. If we continue like this, isn't there a problem! Let me tell you, our company is really serious. We shouldn't spoil them from the beginning. Their problems are our fault." I'm used to it..." Liu Longquan, who was tanned, said to the captain through gritted teeth.

In the past, the transport ships of Chinese companies would not have received such unfair treatment at all. After the increase in ore and oil in Africa, in order to give priority to refueling and water declaration, many cargo ships of Chinese companies began to head towards the port of Singapore. people bribed.

At the beginning, it was only five hundred dollars each time, and later, it increased to one thousand. It didn't take long before the other party began to ask for bribes.

No tips, not even customs clearance, no refueling of cargo ships.

up to now.In exchange for a new customs officer, it is said that his wife and children are in the United States. He actually offered to ask for 15 US dollars for each Chinese freighter, especially a [-]-ton ore carrier.If it is calculated on average per ton, it is not much, and the cost per ton will only increase by less than four cents.

However, they didn't dare to be the master when they encountered this matter for the first time.

Once the price is agreed on this time, it is likely to become five thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars next time...

A ship with a dizzy 15 tons.Ten thousand dollars isn't much, but it's an absolute insult to the entire company.

From the very beginning to the present, eight huge ships of the Jiuyi International Logistics and Mining Transportation Company have been detained here.

"There is no way. This is not our problem. We have too many large ships in China. Let's wait patiently. The company has not responded..." Captain Qiu Ping said helplessly. "Anyway, as long as someone keeps watch, don't let the ore be stolen. Everyone should take turns to relax as before..."

"Captain, if our company doesn't reply, should we just wait like this?" Liu Longquan was a little unwilling. "If this is the case, I won't be able to catch up with my wedding..."

"There is no way. Otherwise, let's apply to the company. You fly back to China first? If the five thousand dollars are given, the company will not accept it. We used to use the company's subsidies to our brothers to do this. The company is also very good to our brothers, if the money is given to us, other brothers will scold us to death!"

"Their government doesn't care about these things! These grandchildren! I will continue to look for them today!" I look for them every day, but I am shirked every day!

"Unless you can get to know their president, don't expect anyone else. I heard that the newly appointed director has a strong backer. Such a fat job, without a backer, definitely can't come! There is no way, wait for the company's response, I will wait for a while Arrange another telegram to the company. Last time they said that the company was trying to solve it. It seems that Kamart can't solve it. It is very likely that this matter will be brought to Mr. Yunfei. God knows what will happen... ’ sighed the captain.

If these things were brought before Yun Fei, something big would happen.

Singapore is also a Chinese country, but the attitude of these guys towards the Chinese is far lower than their attitude towards the Japanese and Koreans!

Yun Fei already knew about this matter, and he always felt that there was God's will in the dark.

Just wanted to dig the ancestral graves in Singapore, but have not found a suitable excuse, now, the Singaporeans actually gave them an excuse.

The bribes that were originally given were all given secretly, but now they actually open their hands and ask for five thousand dollars for a boat!

Is Yunfei's money so easy to get?

"Why haven't such things been reported? This is an insult to us! I don't care what they do to other companies, but the insult to our company is that they are insulting me! Our company has only kept a low profile for two days. How dare they do this in two years?" Yunfei called a meeting of many relevant personnel, including Chen Tao, who was in charge of external public relations, Chen Jie, Yunfei's core assistant, Qiao Dantong from Kmart, and Wang Yi, the president of Jiuyi Group. .

Yunfei was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

"Boss, this is a common practice. In the past, the captains gave tips to the customs staff in order to give priority to refueling and refueling..." Qiao Dantong said aggrievedly.

She didn't even think about why the other party suddenly opened his mouth like a lion this time.

"Some people are scumbags, they can't get used to it! Eight days, how much do we lose in these eight days? Qiao Dantong and Chen Tao are responsible for the press release fee. In addition, let the boat behind us, the boat that returned to empty, give me Gambling the Straits of Malacca! Is it easy to bully me? If the Singapore government doesn’t compensate for the losses, we will be wasted by them!” Yun Fei was furious.

He is not afraid that these things will be used by the bosses above to deal with him.

This is the task that the higher-ups want to give themselves, isn't it?

If you want to do this, you have to put aside your responsibilities.As a young rich man, his net worth keeps rising every year. Naturally, there won't be any problems for Yun Fei to do such a thing.

"Boss, if we do this before the Singapore government responds, we will not only offend the Singapore government. The governments of Japan and South Korea will even blow up our ships. Most of their tankers But they all passed there... Shall we negotiate with their government first, if they don't compensate or apologize. Let's do something like this again? Moreover, we can't block the Strait of Malacca, we can only use our boats to take Singapore Hong Kong is under siege..." Chen Tao never thought that he would be able to participate in such a big event.

"Well, that's good, you can take charge of this matter." Yun Fei nodded.

As long as this matter is hyped up, it will be a matter of course for them to talk to the Thai government about digging the Kra Canal.

The meeting ended quickly, and after Yun Fei left, he inquired that he wanted to retire for a long time, but he was worried about the newcomers.Xu Qing, who has never left, how is the situation in Thailand?

"The people over there are already starting to take action. Last night, a few American soldiers were drunk and turned a passing female college student...then they were beaten up by a few good people who passed by for righteousness. American soldiers It's been shot..." Xu Qing said to Yun Fei calmly.

Yun Fei nodded. He doesn't need to participate in these matters at all. After talking about it, through layers of communication, many people will help him to handle this matter well.

"It's not uncommon for them to add fuel to the fire. This kind of thing is not uncommon in American bases abroad. The incident of prisoner abuse by the US military on the Iraqi and Afghan battlefields is also brought out..." The Americans tried to pull [-] million there.

At the base in Japan, such things often happen, and in the end they all come to naught.

America is the master of Japan.

But Thailand is different.

Thaksin Shinawatra is the Prime Minister of Thailand, and a Thai Prime Minister supported by Western countries.However, their domestic opinions on Thaksin have grown stronger. The main problem is that the US troops are stationed in Thailand, which makes many people in Thailand feel insulted.

Their sovereignty is being violated!

The Thai royal family has always been deeply loved by the people. In the 1992 Black May incident.Thailand's King Bhumibol Adulyadej prevented further bloodshed.At the same time, this king is very kind to the people and is deeply loved by the Thai people.

Many hoped the king would get the government to kick Americans out of their country's military bases.maintain the integrity of national sovereignty.

However, the Thai government has been trying to avoid this incident from happening.The Americans have also become very low-key in Thailand, far less arrogant than the US military in the Japanese base.

However, this time, on May 2004, 5, another large-scale mass demonstration broke out in Thailand.

Ask the Thaksin government to step down, drive the US military out of Thailand, and take back the base they leased to the United States!

The cause of the incident was that three American soldiers gang-raped a female college student on the side of the street after being drunk, and then were besieged by several passers-by. The American soldiers shot on the spot, killing five people and injuring seven...

No one has linked this matter with what happened in Singapore.

The Thaksin government was not prepared to seriously investigate this matter. On May 5, it announced to the public that the U.S. military was entangled by a prostitute, and those who were killed and injured were members of their local gangsters. The Americans were not guilty. ...

Ever since, the Thai people immediately felt that their IQ was seriously affected by the Thaksin government, and countless people began to take to the streets...

"How about Singapore?" Yun Fei has been paying attention to these news.

This project cannot be started until the Americans withdraw their troops from Thailand.

The Thaksin government is not loved by the people at all. Even if such a thing does not happen, two years later, it will be asked to step down because of the corruption incident. Now it is just advancing this matter.

"The Singaporean government ignored our request. Our embassy has already issued a severe condemnation to them. However, the news did not cause any waves in the country. This kind of thing often happens..." Xu Qing said with a frown.

It seems that Yun Fei is suffering a little bit if he wants to achieve his goal.

"Then let Chen Tao prepare another press conference, and I will go in person..." Yun Fei hadn't appeared in the media for many years, and even his name rarely appeared.

"Boss, this is not necessary at all. The situation in Thailand is getting worse and worse. Here, if you stand up again, when the matter of the Kra Canal is brought up in the future, the Americans will be able to think of us at once. It must have played a disgraceful role..." Xu Qing didn't want Yun Fei to appear in the media again.

At that time, their work will have to increase a lot.

In order to cooperate with the government, domestic news media have never reported Yunfei related news.

This cloud rich man who used to appear frequently in the media, now basically not many people know the news.

The only thing I know is that he is still the richest man in China, and at the same time, the youngest super rich man in the world.

"Then let Chen Tao and the others speak out. If the Singapore government refuses to apologize and compensate us for our losses, let all our ships block their ports..." Freight said through gritted teeth.

I hope that the Singaporean government will not be too impulsive at that time. If they shoot at those crew members or something, this matter will become even bigger.

"My friends from the media, thank you all for your attention to the incident of our company's ore carrier and oil tanker being forcibly extorted by Singapore customs officers in the port of Singapore. After repeated negotiations, the Singapore government refused to apologize. Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has lodged a serious protest and a strong Condemnation, this incident has not been effectively resolved. We have already had 23 cargo ships blocked at the port of Singapore... Our boss, Mr. Yunfei, was also very angry after knowing about this incident, and failed to contact the other party many times. Here A difficult decision has been made. From now on, all ocean-going vessels under Yun’s Holdings Jiuyi International Logistics will stop at the port of Singapore. to the port of Singapore, otherwise, the next year's contract will be reconsidered by a new shipping company..." Chen Tao released the news again, and the news suddenly fell like a boulder into calm water...

"..." All the reporters were silent. When they reacted and were about to ask Chen Tao some news they were concerned about, they realized that Chen Tao had disappeared.

The next day, almost all the headlines on the front page of the news media were about Yun Fei, the boss of Yun's Holdings, making a move again, causing huge waves in the world, a company competing with a country!

Yunfei wants to block the port of Singapore Port!

Just for a small fee.

This was interpreted by many domestic media as: This is not a question of how much money, but a question of face.Singaporeans, who are of the same origin as the Chinese, never ask for bribes for cargo ships and oil tankers in Japan and South Korea, but they are ruthless when it comes to the Chinese fleet!

This is so hurtful.

Moreover, some well-known figures were invited by the media to comment on this matter. Some people did a serious calculation. There are more than [-] ships passing through the Strait of Malacca every year, at least one-third of which are from China. One ship makes six trips a year. , every year Singaporeans squeeze hundreds of millions of dollars from the Chinese! (To be continued..)
