The situation in Chuliya has been undergoing a dramatic change recently.
Since February 2018, government forces have launched a military operation known as "Damascus Steel" and continued to launch a fierce offensive in the Eastern Ghouta area, located on the eastern outskirts of Damascus.
In April, the rebels surrounded Douma, the largest town in Eastern Ghouta, and the area of control further expanded.
However, just as the dust was settling, a suspected chemical attack suddenly occurred in Douma, reportedly killing at least 70 people.
The rebels immediately claimed that the government military had used chemical weapons, and multiple international medical monitoring and activist groups, including the Black Helmets, immediately followed up with reports.
On April 13, the president on the other side of the ocean gave a speech on the chemical weapons attack and announced an attack on Suliya.
The next day, Damascus came under air strikes, and violent explosions were heard in many places...
On the same day, the last batch of 4,000 rebels who were besieged in Douma safely withdrew from Douma in accordance with the evacuation agreement...
"According to all aspects of intelligence, the air strike was launched by the Mi, Eagle, and France countries, and was carried out by ship-based, submarine-launched and air-borne cruise missiles.
The Eagle Force's Tornado GR4, supported by four Typhoon fighter jets, took off from the Royal Air Force Base in Akrotiri, Cyprus, firing a total of eight Storm Shadow missiles.
The French Navy has deployed a Kacha-class destroyer, a Georges Legue-class frigate, a Durance-class supply ship and the multi-purpose frigates Aquitaine, Auvergne and Lange in the eastern Mediterranean.
Aircraft carrier battle group composed of Doc.
As for the US military, two B-1 bombers of the 34th Bomb Squadron launched a total of 19 JASSM missiles after taking off from Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar.
The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Laboon and the Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser USS Monterey in the Red Sea fired 7 and 13 Tomahawk missiles respectively.
The Arleigh Burke-class destroyer located in the northern Persian Gulf launched 23 Tomahawk missiles, and the Virginia-class nuclear submarine USS John Warner in the Mediterranean launched 6 Tomahawk missiles...
In total, more than 100 Tomahawk missiles were launched.
The bombing targets include the Bassa Scientific Research Center in Damascus, the warehouses of the Sin-Hinshahr complex in eastern Homs, and the bunkers of the Sin-Kinshahr complex.
The government forces dispatched Pantsir-S1, S-125, S-200, Kuban and Kvadrat air defense systems to respond, but the interception effect was not good..."
At a certain military base, a stern-faced officer was explaining in front of a huge military map.
Fifteen special forces soldiers wearing desert camouflage uniforms sat upright and listened carefully. One of them was Chu Tian.
After the officer finished introducing the information, Chu Tian stood up and saluted him, then turned to face his team members.
"The above is the recent military situation in the surrounding areas. And this time, in addition to the obvious military teaching mission and military observation mission, our dragon hunting team has another secret operation target here!"
Chutian pointed to the Eastern Ghouta area on the edge of Damascus on the map.
“Although the war in Eastern Ghouta is coming to an end and the overall situation of the government forces has been decided, there are still many small groups of rebels in the surrounding area, and the composition of these rebels is complex.
In addition to the local resistance forces, there are also a considerable number of remnants from IS, including members of the "Permafrost" organization that threatens our national security.
According to our intelligence, after the civil war in Choliya intensified in 2012, the "Permafrost" organization responded to the call of IS and other extremist organizations and began to move from the border of Afghanistan to Choliya to join the rebel armed forces.
According to incomplete statistics, there are currently about 3,000 to 5,000 "permafrost" elements fighting in Culiya.
With the defeat of IS in surrounding areas, the risk of 'spillover' or 'return' of IS militants from various countries around the world is increasing.
Our secret mission this time is to go to the Eastern Ghouta area to search for the specific location of one of the extremely dangerous members of the "Permafrost" organization, and try to prevent these defeated troops from returning to our country and affecting the stability and prosperity of the northwest of the motherland!
If possible, annihilate them directly!"
Chu Tian's face was serious.
"Because it is a secret operation, we cannot act openly as Chinese soldiers. From now on, we are a supernumerary special operations team of the government army.
Due to the timeliness of intelligence, you only have three days to familiarize yourself with your weapons and equipment and combat environment, and take action immediately after three days!"
Chu Tian looked at the tanned team members again.
"Heizi, the language system here is complicated, are there any problems?"
"Arabic, Arabic, Armenian, Aramaic and Turkish, except for Kurdish I am not good at, the rest are trivial!"
"Very good, let's start getting ready!"
"Yes! Captain!"
After all the team members went out, the officer who explained the situation before smiled and gave Chu Tian a big hug.
"Old Chu, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Haha! I didn't expect you to be sent here as a foreign military observer. No wonder you, this old boy, can't be contacted in the past two years.
The last time we met was at the red-blue competition in the Eastern Theater District. It has been more than three years. I remember you were still a small staff officer at that time."
"Staff is just a staff, what a little staff!" The officer rolled his eyes. "It has been more than three years, but I still remember the grudge that day!"
"Haha! How dare you, Lao Xu, a staff officer, dare to resist in front of our special operations team? We don't know each other if we don't fight." Thinking of the situation that day, Chu Tian couldn't help laughing.
"Hmph! If you hadn't come here to behead our headquarters for fun, the results of that year's exercise might have been the other way around!" Officer surnamed Xu said unconvinced.
After saying that, I couldn't help but laugh.
"Speaking of which, it was because of that time that I learned the hard way and concentrated on studying special operations and counter-special operations. No, when I had an opportunity, I was sent here to be a military observer!"
"Then you have to seize the opportunity this time. There are not many opportunities to observe our fighting methods, hehe!"
"Hey! But I can see that everyone under your command is a great young man. By the way, are your siblings and Xiaonan okay?"
"Well... although something happened a while ago, fortunately, there was no danger. Xiaonan, the child, was originally a bit weak, but after going through some hardships, he has matured a lot. It can be regarded as a blessing in disguise." Chu Tian sighed a little.
Observer Xu was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"That's right, how can a child who grows up in a greenhouse grow into a man?
As the saying goes, when someone is given a great responsibility by heaven, he must work hard first. When Xiaonan is older, you can throw him to me and temper him in the big melting pot of the army. I guarantee that I will forge a good piece of steel for you!"
"Okay, but you old boy, don't take revenge when the time comes!"
"Well... maybe, the father's debt must be repaid by the son..."
The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.
After reminiscing about old times, Observer Xu looked at his former friend and his face gradually became serious.
"Old Chu, I know that your dragon hunting team is all elite, but this mission must not be taken lightly.
Not to mention the recent turmoil in Damascus, where the forces of various organizations are intertwined and the situation is extremely complex.
Moreover, after those members of the "Permafrost" organization have experienced six years of actual combat training in the Asian civil war, their combat experience and tactical awareness cannot be underestimated. In addition, there are forces behind the opponent, so they must not take it lightly!"
Chu Tian also looked solemn.
"Of course, it is precisely because these people are extremely dangerous that we are here.
Otherwise, once they are allowed to return, it will definitely pose a huge threat to domestic security and stability!"
"Well! I leave everything to you!" Observer Xu solemnly saluted with a military salute.
Chu Tian smiled and returned a military salute.
"Of course, this is my mission!"
…
Sioux City.
It is still a bustling scene with busy traffic, singing and dancing.
"Bang!" After closing the car door, Song Bin looked up and looked at the building in front of him where his "new boss" was said to be...
"Evergreen Biotechnology Co., Ltd."......
Why would a biomedical CEO come to acquire a film and television media company that was on the verge of bankruptcy...
It’s quite outrageous!
But this was not the time for him, an entrepreneurial failure, to be picky.
Everyone has his own mission.
And his current mission is to try his best to prevent the more than 20 employees who have been following him from suddenly losing their jobs...
Song Bin adjusted his suit, took a deep breath, and walked into the building...
…
"Song Bin, Mr. Song, right? Please sit down."
"Dr. Gao, I have admired you for a long time! I can't afford President Song. Just call me Song Bin."
In the chairman's office, Song Bin couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw the "new boss" in front of him.
I didn't expect that the person who acquired my company would be such a young and beautiful woman...
"Okay, from now on we are all colleagues, don't be too restrained, let's just get straight to the point.
I would like to first understand the current personnel situation of May Film and Television Media and whether they can get back to work as soon as possible."
Gao Yuan looked at Song Bin and asked directly.
"Uh..." Song Bin didn't expect the new boss to be so anxious. Before his butt was even hot, he started asking us if we could get back to work as soon as possible?
Isn't the normal process for everyone to sit down and have a meal, drink three rounds of food and enjoy the five flavors, and then get down to business after everyone gets familiar with it?
This is a resolute Lord...
Now that I am an employee, I naturally have to follow the boss's style.
He immediately said solemnly.
"Of course, Director Gao, please rest assured. Our key members are all my old subordinates who have been with me for several years. I heard that you are very grateful that you can retain the team structure and acquire the company as a whole, and they are all willing to stay in the company. Now that the military spirit is available, we can do it at any time."
Get into work mode.”
"Yeah! Okay, I have three tasks now that I want you to start on right away."
"Director Gao, please speak." Song Bin immediately sat upright.
"The first task is to change the name of May Film and Television Media to Lingjing Film and Television Media. I hope this will be a new beginning for you and your team!"
Changing the name may not seem important, but once the emperor is the emperor, so are the ministers.
Why did the emperor of every dynasty have to change the title of his country?
It is for the sake of what the people want, and it is also a way to weaken the prestige of the previous dynasty.
Song Bin felt a little melancholy when he heard this.
Although it is a proper intention, it is like having a child you have raised for several years and suddenly having to change his surname to someone else's. Naturally, you are a little bit reluctant to give it up.
"Okay Director Gao, I will do it as soon as possible."
"The second thing is to prepare a working group immediately. I am going to invest in a movie right away. The investment amount is about 200 million. You need to communicate with the film studio on investment-related matters as soon as possible. This is the relevant information."
"Two...two hundred million?!" Song Bin's eyes widened.
I have a company with only one million yuan in assets. Suddenly, I have to take orders worth two hundred million yuan?
Why does it feel like a dream?
Gao Yuan's wealth immediately shocked Song Bin.
"It's Director Gao, I will definitely not betray your trust in Lingjing Media!" He looked excited.
Why don’t you just change your child’s last name?
The key is to get into a wealthy family!
"Well! The third thing is to contact this person, package him, and make him popular. He will be a participant in this movie and the company's first signed artist."
Song Bin took a look at the information Gao Yuan handed over again, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Hmm! With this look, at least he has good innate attributes and has the potential to become famous.
Looking at the information again, I frowned.
Pure vegetarian, non-acting professional background, no working experience, no performance experience...
This is a three-no product!
Looking further down, there are finally some bright spots in the personal works column.
Sing the song, "Dislocated Time and Space"?
Why have I never heard of this song? Could it be that if you play and sing it for your own entertainment, it is called a work?
Song Bin couldn't help but complain.
It's true that he has been so worried about his company's bankruptcy and acquisition recently that he has no time to pay attention to the new songs that have become popular recently.
Song Bin looked at the handsome face in the profile photo that could be called a "killer" of all kinds, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
Could it be that Director Gao's hobby is the same as that of some bosses, and he likes to make his mistresses into stars to satisfy his own vanity?
Spending 200 million, is this such a huge investment?
Seeing that Song Bin didn't answer for a long time, Gao Yuan looked at him and said calmly.
"I don't like to see the process, I just want to see the results. Your probation period is 2 months. After 2 months, I will decide whether to replace the person in charge of Lingjing Company based on your performance."
Song Bin's heart trembled.
According to the acquisition contract, the other party is obliged to retain jobs for employees, but this does not include his management...
"Don't worry, Director Gao, I will definitely get it done as quickly as possible and I won't let you down!"
After discussing the company's follow-up operations and financial approval in detail, Song Bin, who looked solemn, was sent away.
Gao Yuan rubbed her eyebrows.
The intensity of work has increased recently...
At this time Jiang Wenmin walked in.
"Director Gao."
"What's up?"
"According to the list you gave me, the upgrade equipment for the company's data center has been purchased one after another. In addition, the construction team responsible for the expansion of the computer room has also started construction. It is expected that the upgrade will be completed within three days."
"Yeah! Well done."
Jiang Wenmin was a little puzzled.
"Director Gao, although our previous data center was not large, it was enough to meet the company's daily needs. I don't quite understand why we still need to spend money to upgrade the data center?"
Gao Yuan glanced at him.
“The company is developing rapidly, with production lines and research institutes being expanded, and office staff also increasing.
In addition, I am also planning to introduce a set of the world's most advanced enterprise management systems and production management systems, which all require high-performance data processing centers.
It’s better to prepare in advance than to be short-changed when the time comes.”
Jiang Wenmin was stunned for a moment. What is the world's most advanced enterprise management system and production management system?
That won't cost me a lot of money?
Although life is getting better now, that’s not how money is made, right?
However, since Gao Yuan had already decided, it was not something that a wage earner like him could object to, so he reported another matter.
"By the way, Director Gao, I just went to the data center to check the work progress, and I heard the person in charge there said something strange."
"What's weird?"
"The power consumption of our data center has been soaring for no apparent reason recently. I heard it has doubled or tripled compared to last month.
But the person in charge over there checked repeatedly, and his hair was almost bald when scratched, but he couldn't find out what the cause was."
Power consumption soaring?
Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Immediately, his eyes couldn't help but scanned the notebook on his desk...
Yes, no matter how high-tech it is, it must abide by the conservation of energy...
