Chapter 632: The Dilemma of Malacca

Ningbo, Zhejiang is one of the earliest independent cities to open coastal areas in the country. Since the development of Pudong in 1992, it has been positioned as the economic center city on the southern wing of the Yangtze River Delta Economic Circle by the central government. It is now a sub-provincial city in Zhejiang, which is higher than the "larger city" of the nine cities in Central Plains Province.

Ningbo is an economic center in Zhejiang. The Beilun Port where it is located is catching up with Shanghai in terms of throughput and ranked among the top ten ports in the world. Moreover, Ningbo and Shanghai have a special relationship. When Shanghai opened a port and absorbed a large number of foreign personnel to work and build, Ningbo people came the most, so there is a saying that "no peace can't be Shanghai". To this day, there are still many Shanghai people's ancestral graves left in Ningbo. Every year during the Qingming Festival, a large number of Shanghai people will travel long distances to Ningbo to visit the graves.

Zhu Zizong's ancestors were from Ningbo. As the saying goes, wealth and honor are like walking in a night clothes for brocade clothes. After years of development, his first thing was to go back to his hometown to renovate his ancestral tombs and ancestral halls, and expand and renovate his ancestral homes in the suburbs of Ningbo. In recent years, he made major decisions, and many times he made them after hiding in his ancestral home and thinking about it repeatedly.

This time he made such a big mistake in gambling with stones, so he didn't dare to go back to Shanghai directly, so he ran back to Ningbo's ancestral house and stayed on his own territory for a few days. After he had cleared his thoughts, he secretly touched a small western-style building in the 1950s and 1960s near the "Tianyi Pavilion" Museum in the center of Ningbo at night.

Ningbo's "Tianyi Pavilion" was built during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. It is one of the three oldest private libraries in the world. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Premier Zhou personally inquired and renovated the library. It mainly re-entered the family collection. With nearly 80,000 rare treasures collected by the people, it was converted into a museum for the collection of Ming and Qing Dynasty Cultural Relics. It is a treasure for studying ancient Chinese culture. Now it is open to the public every day, attracting tourists from all over the world to visit. Many scholars who are interested in ancient books have lived nearby for a long time, focusing on studying ancient Chinese works.

Although Zhu Zizong could not understand these ancient documents, he obeyed the old man who lived here and called "Lao Fan" by him. It is said that this "Lao Fan" was originally a high-ranking official in the capital. Later, he failed in the political struggle and gave up everything and hid in the "Tianyi Pavilion" to avoid disaster in the name of research and knowledge. He was not pursued to the end. However, his eyesight and connections were still there. Zhu Zizong's ability to make a fortune was closely related to his ability to get to know this Lao Fan and his guidance, including this time Zhu Zizong was appreciated by the upper class of the capital. As a knife to deal with Zhongxing Group, it was also the thread that this old Fan was connected.

So late at night, the two of them sat in the living room of the small building. When Zhu Zizong failed to gambling on his own stone, he fell into the "flower transplantation" trap and explained it from beginning to end. After thinking for a while, Mr. Fan's face changed drastically: "No, I'm afraid that our affairs will be the one who deals with you should be the Tiansha Star. This time he gently moved his fingers and let you 100 million yuan of wealth be wiped out. He saved your life, just to give us a warning through you. I can't make the decision on this matter, so I can only contact the capital immediately!"

After saying that, he immediately started broadcasting multiple phone numbers. When Zhu Zizong heard the word "Tiansha Star", he immediately fell into a state of dullness. This time they planned the Zhongxing Group for a long time. In addition to the above relationship, he also contacted many wealthy people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and there were also large amounts of unknown foreign funds to support them. Therefore, he was bold enough to make a try. Who knew that the other party had learned about it at the beginning of the matter? Originally, the above repeatedly reminded him to keep it confidential, and he asked himself that except for his wife, everyone else was kept in the dark, and it should have been unknown. Now he realized the other party's power, and he set up such a big situation quietly to lure him into a fool.

He recalled the exquisite layout of this scam, which made him fall into it step by step without realizing it. I am afraid that he had far underestimated the other party's energy. What shocked him the most was that the other party was cruel and silently killed so many people on the territory of Myanmar, which shows that the other party was not only cunning, but also had a team in his hand that was not caring about life and death and would immediately take action without any scruples. In addition, the Myanmar warlord Padson must be his accomplice this time, which means that even if he was far away in Myanmar, he was within the sphere of influence of the other party.

Zhu Zizong has already felt a little regretful about such a threatening opponent. If he hadn't been dizzy and was praised by others, he would have thought that he was the richest man in Shanghai. He was still in the midst of a sudden change in the Hong Kong stock market. He felt that he could compete with several Hong Kong rich people and be pushed to the front desk to be a pioneer, and would not have been involved in such a difficult "bad star".

But what they didn't know was that just as they were talking, a repair car that looked like a telephone cable was parked in a back street and alley not far from the small building. The "satellite antenna" on it emitted a laser beam that was invisible to the naked eye against several windows of the small building. This is a cutting-edge laser eavesdropping device that can monitor the target without being noticed from a distance of 250 meters without entering the target room.

This is the latest "security product" developed by Nebula Electronics. Of course, it must first take care of internal personnel. Its working method is to use lasers to record every tiny vibration of the window caused by sound waves. All indoor conversations will be monitored through an invisible infrared laser beam, and then the modulated excitation beam wave is reflected back, received by the receiver and converted into an electrical signal to be filtered and amplified. The signal will be recorded immediately and the restored sound will be heard through the headphones.

At the same time, when the old Fan started to call, every word he said was intercepted through several black "worms" placed in the telephone box not far away. This was installed by the "repair worker" in the car not long ago. "worms" are the nickname in the industry, and the regular name should be called "eavesdropper". Now his phone content and the location of the call he called are all analyzed and processed in detail through electronic instruments and computers in the "repair car", and the result soon appeared on the display screen and headphones of the personnel in the car.

Now the people in the car listened to the every move in the small building with interest. After a long time, Mr. Fan put down the phone and sighed. Obviously, the progress of things was not going well. He asked Zhu Zizong again in detail about the cause and consequence of being deceived and every detail of the trick.

"There is a bad news. The good news is that the superiors do not intend to pursue your mistake this time. The bad news is that you have to bear the deficit by yourself. The superiors cannot help you recover the money, and even think that this thing has not happened at all!" "How is this possible?" Zhu Zizong almost jumped up. This time he lost his wife and soldier. Now he said that he was a mute man who was sure to lose, and no one was willing to help him. He was extremely angry.

"The above analysis you should have been targeted before going to Yunnan. They just found out the secret set you like to bet on stones. The Tianshaxing has a large jewelry company under his belt, and has business in Tengchong and Myanmar. You can find a few experts at random, just give some money and make the jadeite rough stones that you can get confused."

"The key problem is that this time there will be no cooperation between local warlords in Myanmar, or even the Myanmar political army, do you think their scam can be so easy to continue, and you can still escape after killing so many of you? But now Myanmar will not pursue it, and the domestic will not care. Because Tianshaxing is assisting the government and the Myanmar political team to negotiate to break the "Malacca dilemma", the Myanmar political team and the domestic government have both requested him. Your affairs cannot be put on the table, and the superiors can't help you, so they can only admit defeat!" Seeing him excited, Mr. Fan had to explain patiently.

"What does the Malacca dilemma have to do with me?" Zhu Zizong's head was completely confused by the information provided by Mr. Fan. What a bullshit "Malacca dilemma". It sounds like the other party can control the politics of Myanmar and China with this. His energy is so great that he can turn black and white. Is the liar innocent?

Mr. Fan had no choice but to comfort him, "Let me tell you in detail. You also know that the amount of oil imported from abroad in our country has been increasing every year in recent years. The most reliable way to transport large amounts of oil is shipping. In recent years, the majority of oil imported from China are in the Middle East. If the tanker wants to go to China, it must pass through the Malacca Strait in Singapore."

Zhu Zizong seemed to have found some clues when he heard this, but he had not figured out the connection, and his anger disappeared a lot. He listened to Mr. Fan carefully, "But most of the ASEAN countries near Malacca are American allies. It is obviously dangerous to place the safety of the oil lifeline on them. The domestic situation is unwilling to maintain this situation for a long time. So in the north, we talked about oil pipelines with Russia, and in the south, we chose to repair ports on the coasts of Pakistan and Myanmar and other countries, preparing to repair oil pipelines to the country. At that time, oil transfers bypass the Strait of Malacca will break the 'Malacca dilemma'."

"In Myanmar, the Myanmar government can charge a large toll, which is undesirable for those who suffer from conservative sanctions. But look at the map, when you build an oil pipeline near Yangon Port in Myanmar, you have to pass through the territory of many warlords. You can't kill them all, and you have to use both soft and hard. If necessary, bribe local warlords so that they don't stop the pipeline laying and provide protection to kill two birds with one stone. But this kind of government is not easy to come forward, so you can only rely on people with related parties in Myanmar to find solutions."

"That evil star not only imports gems and wood from Myanmar, but also provides daily necessities and arms to Myanmar, which is sanctioned through relations, and can easily be found among all the armed forces in Myanmar. Recently I heard that he was also helping to build Myanmar's first stock exchange, which is a guest of honor for local people. The country is counting on using his relationship to survey and lay the front station for oil pipelines. You said that in this case, even if he robs you openly, he can only breathe a sigh of relief. Besides, you are secretly crossing the border to bet on stones, how can you help you?"
