Volume 2 The Return of the Son Chapter 19 Running to the Destination

+|Nepal announced in Tehran that the United Republic and Iran have formed a "comprehensive strategic partnership", and the two sides will carry out more in-depth cooperation in the fields of politics, diplomacy, culture, economy, trade and education
The joint statement made no mention of military cooperation between the two sides, let alone arms sales contracts
In the afternoon of the same day, a short and concise message appeared on the official website of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic: the Republic will sell $4.5 billion in weapons and equipment to Iran
Global public opinion was in an uproar
Only $4.5 billion in arms is less than a fraction of the list of arms sales issued by N
Subsequently, the spokesman of the Iranian Ministry of Defense announced in a very low-key manner: Iran will introduce 12 sets of long-range air defense systems, 24 sets of short-range air defense systems, 4 sets of long-range warning radars and 4 early warning aircraft from the Republic, manufacture 350 new main battle tanks based on the Republic Type 99 by purchasing production licenses and joint research and development, and introduce and produce 180 self-propelled howitzers and 120 long-range rocket launchers
There are no tankers, submarines, and long-range cruise missiles that are of great concern to the outside world
According to the analysis of the special commentator of the British Sky TV, because the total contract amount is only 45 US dollars, the early warning aircraft that Iran imported from the Republic should be the "Air Police 200" with poor performance, not the "Air Police 2000" with advanced performance
The relevant news has been confirmed by a number of media, and even N has to admit that Ji Youguo's way of playing cards is unexpected
At this point, most of Ji Youguo's visit to nine countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe has passed, and he will also visit Pakistan and Russia According to outside estimates, Ji Youguo will formally sign the "China-Pakistan Free Trade Agreement" with Sharif in Islamabad and promise to provide more economic and military assistance to Pakistan, and then Ji Youguo will discuss with Nedmeiv in Moscow the specific matters of the "Peace Mission 2015 Joint Military Exercise" to be held in Russia's Khabarovsk Krai at the end of the year, and reach several strategic agreements with Russia
Another thing that has attracted much "attention" has also made new progress
As President Japel ordered the Federal Bureau of Judicial Investigation to reopen an investigation into Jonathan's death, five Republican senators jointly proposed that a seven-member independent investigative team be formed in the name of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and then more than 20 Republican House members also issued a proposal that the House Judiciary Committee should come forward and work with the Senate to form a 15-member joint investigation team independent of the executive branch
Whether Japel wants to or not, he has no right to stop the congressional Judiciary Committee from investigating
On the 15th, the Federal Bureau of Judicial Investigation released its first investigation report
The news media, which closely followed the progress of the investigation, immediately seized on the main points, and that afternoon Sierbock pointed out in the "Point-in-Time News" special that the surveillance footage of Jonathan's meeting with the president provided by the Federal Bureau of Justice was not sound, and demanded a clear explanation from the White House
Neither Mr. Jappel nor the White House press secretary could explain
After the Watergate scandal, surveillance equipment was installed in all rooms of the White House, and the surveillance footage was kept for at least five years, nominally to protect the president, but in fact it was used to spy on the president, retain video evidence of the president's verbal orders, and limit the president's abuse of privileges
The silence of the White House only makes the outside world more suspicious of the president
In the evening of the same day, the White House press secretary refused to release more surveillance footage to the press, citing that Silberk was not a judicial investigator, that the White House surveillance footage was a state secret, and that there was no court authorization, and that there was no explanation for Silberke's request
At this point, the situation has gotten out of control
According to the relevant laws of the United States, in addition to requiring the White House to release the surveillance video to the investigative agencies by way of a court subpoena, there are two ways to make the White House "compliant": one is for the Supreme Court to sign an investigation order authorizing the relevant agencies to conduct an investigation; Second, the Congressional Judiciary Committee proposed that the Congress should authorize the relevant investigative agencies
Either way, it was out of Jappel's control
The storm of political scandals is getting more and more fierce, and Li Cunxun is seeing it in his eyes and anxious in his heart
All he could do was get out as quickly as possible
After selling $3,000 worth of "Shi Group" shares on the 11th, 12 sold 1 billion, 1.5 billion on the 13th, 14 sold 25, and 15 reached a share exchange deal with four large companies with mineral mining rights overseas, exchanged about $3 billion worth of "Shi Group" shares in five days, and disposed of one-third of Yanbo's assets
Li Cunxun felt that this speed was not fast enough
He had five days left to deal with his assets at most, and he had to double the speed at which he could dispose of his assets in order to get Hikobo out of the way after five days
As night fell, Li Cunxun and Liu Xiaobin left their temporary residence and drove to Chambers Manor in Jersey City
"This old guy is not easy to deal with," Liu Xiaobin was quick about
The information in hand, "From the age of 19 to 27, he fought in = and later went to Colombia and Haiti to carry out special operations, and obtained a bachelor's degree in law and business administration from Yale University during his service, and after retiring from the army, he studied finance at Harvard University and obtained a doctorate.32 He joined Merrill Lynch and successively worked at Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Flower Bank and Bank of America.45 became a special researcher at the RAND Corporation, and founded the name of his wife at the age of 48 Louise Resources Investment Company', which is mainly engaged in the acquisition and subcontracting of overseas mines"
Li Cunxun's brows jumped a few times
"We shouldn't provoke this guy named Chambers," Liu Xiaobin closed the document, "If it weren't for the financial crisis and the global economic downturn, I'm afraid his life would be much more nourishing than it is now."
"There's nothing you can't provoke" Li Cunxun took the document and flipped to the last few pages
"You're going to make a fuss about his family?" Liu Xiaobin took out the cigarette file, which was attached with the details of Chambers's children
Li Cunxun didn't say anything, if it wasn't absolutely necessary, he didn't like to achieve his goals by blackmailing other people's families
At the moment, Li Cunxun has no other choice
With a total value of nearly $5 billion and a market valuation of less than $2 billion, he personally controls 67 percent of the company's shares, and is not only the company's largest shareholder, but also the chairman and general manager of the company
Unlike the dozens of previous deals, Chambers is not at the end of its rope
"Brother Li, is it really necessary to take risks?"
After a few busy days, Liu Xiaobin has some understanding of financial operations and financial supervision in the United States, and a share exchange transaction worth less than $100 million will not cause trouble, and this transaction is worth as much as $20, which will not only make the approval procedures more troublesome, but also attract great attention from the financial regulatory authorities
"I have already thought about it, first in the name of 'Huashi' to carry out a share exchange transaction, and then in the form of a small share exchange transaction, transfer the shares to the NED regulatory side, let Nadiq come forward to handle it"
Liu Xiaobin frowned slightly, "This is also a way, the question is how do you pass the first level?" ”
"The first level?" Li Cunxun turned his head to look at his partner
"Chambers' residence has a tight security system, even if you and I can break in, it's impossible to force him to sign the peace treaty, right?"
"Why break in?" Li Cunxun smiled faintly and said, "I didn't believe that Chambers would turn us away when I came to visit with Nadiq's business card."
Liu Xiaobin rolled his eyes: "Are you angry with Nadik?" ”
"I have been vaccinated a long time ago, and he also thinks that he can make a lot of money by buying 'Louise Resources Investment Company'" Li Cunxun took out an envelope, "The letters of introduction have been written, if I guessed correctly, before we went out, Nadik called Chambers"
"So, I'm worried in vain"
"Not necessarily" Li Cunxun returned the document to his partner, "How is the situation on the CIA's side?" ”
"Yesterday, a few new faces appeared, and the CIA monitored Nadik and others more closely" Liu Xiaobin sighed, "Japeel must have been forced to be in a hurry, and he wanted to seize Nadik and others as soon as possible to quell the scandal."
"This is what we have to worry about" Li Cunxun took out a cigarette, and Liu Xiaobin helped him light it, "Japeel already knows that Nadik and others are behind the scenes, and sooner or later we will find out that when we met with Nadik in the afternoon, he also mentioned this matter, and hopes that we will provide key evidence as soon as possible"
"You promised?"
Li Cunxun shook his head, "Of course I didn't agree, and I didn't refuse, I could only try to delay it for a few more days, and after dealing with Yanbo's assets, we would go away, regardless of the scandal or news."
"It's really not good, we'll leave after this vote, anyway, Yanbo doesn't lack this money"
"Do you think I'm the kind of person who gives up easily?" Li Cunxun glanced at his partner, "No matter what, we have to stick to the end Of course, the safety of Yanbo and Muhua is the most important, you will arrange the retreat route tomorrow and make preparations for the retreat in advance."
Liu Xiaobin nodded, he knew Li Cunxun's character, and he knew how dangerous the situation in front of him was
"Don't worry, no matter what the outcome, I will be the last to leave" Li Cunxun took two puffs of his cigarette, "I hope this is our last mission in the United States"
Liu Xiaobin smiled and shook his head
If the situation develops to the point where it is out of control, the CIA will definitely make every effort to find out the "culprit behind the scenes", and will eventually find out Li Cunxun, who is known as "Ronald Lee", even if Li Cunxun wants to carry out missions in the United States in the future, Pan Yunsheng will not let the top agent of the Military Intelligence Agency take risks
The car pulled out of the Holland Tunnel and into New Jersey, a little closer to its destination
