The person in charge of the Louvre walked into the exhibition hall and saw the empty hall, and his whole body felt numb.
He turned to look at the security director who had woken up next to him. If looks could kill, he would have executed Ling Chi long ago.
The security supervisor who was being stared at also saw the situation at the scene. The weather in Paris was obviously good and it rained heavily yesterday, but now he was sweating profusely.
Big beads of sweat couldn't stop dripping from his forehead, and his hands and feet couldn't help shaking.
"ah--"
The next second, the security supervisor rolled his eyes and fell straight back.
Seeing that the security director was about to fall to the ground, there were several people standing behind him, but now they all retreated towards the surroundings as if they were afraid of encountering some virus.
Bang——
So the security supervisor fell heavily to the ground, closed his eyes, and fainted.
"Take him under control and have someone check who he has been in contact with in the past month, no, six months. At the same time, investigate his financial situation and the current location of his family and friends."
Not only did the person in charge not have any worries about the status of the security director, but he directly ordered others to examine him in front of everyone.
"yes!"
After hearing the arrangements made by the person in charge, no one present, including the police, raised any objections.
Because the current situation is obvious, the reason why the Louvre was evacuated was 100% an act of self-insurrection or internal and external collusion.
"Except for the supervisor, no one else should be spared. Control everything first. No one can leave until everything is thoroughly reviewed, including the people in the control room."
So many cultural relics were lost, but the alarm system and security guards found nothing at all. This alone cannot be explained without an insider.
"Officer Wright, please apply to the authorities and ask them to send out rifle teams to blockade airports, stations, highways and ship entrances and exits, especially freight cars and ships. Don't miss any inspection."
After arranging the review of his own people, the person in charge immediately looked at the senior police officers who came with him.
"No problem, but I can only guarantee the application. But if the superiors don't agree, then there's nothing I can do."
The police officer named Wright couldn't help but sigh when he heard the person in charge's words.
The fact that the Louvre was evacuated must have seemed like the sky had fallen to the authorities.
But whether or not to seal off the entire Paris as the person in charge said was not a decision they could make.
However, Officer Wright's worries were obviously unnecessary. After such a big incident, the French authorities naturally did not hesitate and quickly began to block all entrances and exits.
Of course, although they blocked the entrances and exits, they did not prevent people from entering and exiting. They only strengthened the review, especially the luggage they carry, which is the focus of attention.
But their actions were obviously in vain.
Sir Zhang, who had caused such a big incident, had no intention of leaving. Instead, after meeting up with Yang Jianhua, he prepared to steal, no, recover the national treasure for the second time.
"I just received news that the airport and other entry and exit places have been put under martial law.
I heard that except for things like clothing, other large items can only be stored and cannot be taken out until they have been inspected.
The reason given by the French authorities is that the Chimera virus that caused a stir some time ago is likely to have appeared in Paris, and the evidence is that they discovered that Sean, who stole the virus, appeared in Paris some time ago."
After meeting Yang Jianhua, the other party did not immediately discuss how to get the national treasure back. Instead, he talked about the actions of the French authorities.
Then after seeing that Zhang Pin showed no emotion, she couldn't help but looked at Zhang Pin again and said, "How many things did you take from the Louvre last night to force them to take such big action now?"
Zhang Pin smiled at Yang Jianhua's question: "I was alone last night, and I had to avoid the security guard's sight. How much do you think I can take? Who knows what they are crazy about, but don't tell me, their reason is really
It makes sense.”
It is indeed very convincing to hear that the French authorities used the Chimera virus as an excuse to block the entrances and exits.
This not only covers up the theft of cultural relics from the Louvre, but also provides a reasonable excuse for the blockade.
After all, it stands to reason that with so many cultural relics stolen from the Louvre, if they want to transport them out, they will definitely not be able to hide them.
Unfortunately, this matter cannot be calculated logically.
For Sir Zhang, who has the mustard space, he does not need to consider the issue of transportation at all.
Therefore, the Paris authorities' efforts to make such a big move are destined to be in vain.
"Are you really just one person?"
Yang Jianhua obviously didn't trust Zhang Pin's words.
Yang Jianhua knew that Zhang Pin had a good relationship with America, especially the fact that Zhang Pin recovered the stolen gold from the Federal Reserve Bank in London. As an intelligence officer, she naturally knew about it.
Because of this, Yang Jianhua naturally couldn't help but wonder whether Zhang Pin and America had teamed up to cause such a thing.
"What do you mean? I'm not the only one. Who else would risk offending the whole of Europe just to find our national treasure?"
Zhang Pin naturally noticed Yang Jianhua's temptation, so he waved his hand without any intention of explaining to the other party.
"If you were really alone, could it be that you stole Mona Lisa's smile, and that's why they had such a big reaction?"
Seeing Zhang Pin's actions, Yang Jianhua also realized that he should not be testing Zhang Pin at this moment.
After all, no matter what the relationship between Zhang Pin and America is, what he is doing now is indeed to get back the national treasure.
So she immediately changed the subject.
In fact, she did have some doubts about whether Zhang Pin took advantage of the opportunity to steal the most famous cultural relics from the Louvre this time.
"We agreed at the beginning that this matter is my personal behavior, so whatever I do has nothing to do with you."
Zhang Pin was a little impatient with Yang Jianhua's probing.
We have been dealing with each other for so many years. If we want to express our opinions, Sir Zhang's attitude is absolutely nothing to say. After all, according to the exchange rate of US dollars, his transactions with the motherland have exceeded tens of billions of Chinese dollars.
Others were trying their best to convert their currencies into US dollars, and then find ways to transfer them out of the mainland. Only he kept changing his US dollars into Chinese currency, and then stayed in the mainland.
Of course, the money he left in the mainland was not simply used to earn interest, but was used to invest and earn a lot of profits.
However, these investments also created enough jobs, and the high-standard industrial parks he built in Yangcheng and Pengcheng also attracted a lot of investment from Hong Kong and small businesses.
If we really want to count it up, his contribution is definitely quite a lot.
Naturally, Sir Zhang understood Yang Jianhua's temptation.
After all, if he was like Chen Jiaju and had a single mind, the other party might not test him, but instead would try his best to protect and support him.
In fact, Chen Jiaju was able to rise through the ranks in the police force even though he kept making mistakes. Behind this was the support of Yang Jianhua's forces.
Yang Jianhua's test was obviously because Sir Zhang had too much capital and his unfathomable strength made it difficult for him to control it.
But understanding is understanding, this kind of naked distrust is naturally very hurtful.
At this time, Sir Zhang finally understood what it meant to be a master of great power.
It’s no wonder that many times when fighting together to conquer the world, brothers who can live and die together will eventually stage a sword-fighting scene while enjoying the fruits of victory.
In fact, interests are something that cannot be maintained solely through feelings and relationships.
For example, even if Sir Zhang has shown his heart, in the eyes of Yang Jianhua and others, he has too much power and power, so he must be on guard.
But this kind of defensiveness can easily hurt the feelings of both parties.
This time, Sir Zhang took advantage of Yang Jianhua's inquiry and directly made the topic half-clarified.
"It really has nothing to do with me. It's just my personal curiosity. Let's talk about what to do next."
Yang Jianhua felt Zhang Pin's attitude and secretly regretted it.
Over the years, as Sir Zhang has continued to invest in the mainland, it is not only his own financial support.
Around Sir Zhang, there are many interest circles composed of Hong Kong investors and businessmen from Xiaoli and Southeast Asia.
These interest circles were influenced by Sir Zhang and also chose to invest funds in the mainland.
Of course, these funds have also made a lot of money in the mainland, but it is undeniable that it is precisely because of the entry of these capitals that the development of the mainland has become better and better.
After all, before the mainland chose to open up, it only had some raw materials and cheap labor.
But these two things are actually not indispensable to capital.
However, the mainland's demand for capital is a necessity, so the two sides are inherently unequal.
When the mainland chose to liberalize, it was already ready to exchange resources and markets for capital and technology.
Nature is also ready to accept oppression and exploitation.
Originally, when European, American and small-time companies entered the market, they dumped some backward machines and products into the mainland at high prices, which can be said to be unscrupulous.
However, as Sir Zhang has invested tens of billions of funds in the mainland, these funds only account for a small proportion compared to the huge foreign investment.
In addition, he also brought in hundreds of billions of funds.
Because of the existence of these funds, European and American capital and small business owners who could have achieved dozens or hundreds of times profits naturally encountered competitors.
In terms of strength and technology, it is certainly impossible for Hong Kong capital and Southeast Asian capital to compare with European and American capital, as well as Xiao Benzi and others.
But they come to the mainland to make money, and of course they cannot choose to open up high-end technology to the mainland.
Most of the technologies they gave to the mainland were actually eliminated by themselves.
And these obsolete technologies are also good things for the mainland.
Originally, without the capital led by Sir Zhang, European and American capital would have simply sold obsolete technologies at sky-high prices.
However, because of the existence of this group of capital led by Sir Zhang, Hong Kong Island also belongs to Gui Laoying after all.
Before World War II, Gui Laoying was the world's hegemon, and they were also a member of European power, even though they had fallen behind due to the rise of America.
But their backward technology is naturally no worse than the technology eliminated by America.
So things naturally have room for change.
Other capital originally wanted to exploit the mainland, but after discovering that there were competitors, they naturally became less ruthless in their exploitation.
This batch of capital can be said to have played a catfish effect, helping the mainland to reduce a lot of profit exploitation and giving it a certain say.
However, precisely because Zhang Sir's capital was so critical to the mainland, Yang Jianhua began to be suspicious of Zhang Sir.
After all, the support for Sir Zhang in the mainland is very high now. He has used land to build industrial parks and even residential complexes, and the policy support from the authorities is very strong.
In this case, if Sir Zhang has any bad intentions or plans something, the blow to the mainland will naturally not be light.
Both of them knew this very well, so Zhang Pin often chose to turn a blind eye to Yang Jianhua's temptations. His bottom line was not to go too far.
But this time when he learned that Sir Zhang and America were very close, Yang Jianhua was obviously a little anxious.
Zhang Pin also made his attitude clear about this.
Of course he can support the development of the country, but equally, he also has his own freedom.
After expressing his attitude, Zhang Pincai turned to thinking about his plan to get back the national treasure.
"Actually, we overlooked one thing before, that is, the two animal heads in Baron Martin's hands cannot be seen in the light."
Zhang Pin suddenly raised something.
He also learned one thing after reading Yang Jianhua's information.
Most of France's cultural relics were obtained through illegal means.
Because of this, it certainly doesn't matter to the French authorities that these things are displayed. After all, this is their glorious landmark event of the year.
However, for people like Baron Martin, whose ancestors used war and other means to plunder some cultural relics from other countries, they are not legally recognized.
Of course, in times of war, this kind of thing doesn't matter.
But now is not the time of war.
Especially with the increasing number of human rights movements in Europe in recent years, things have become interesting.
Baron Martin's ancestors and others relied on war or trade to plunder cultural relics. Not only was it disgraceful, it was actually against the law.
So most of the time, they will choose to keep these collections secretly, rather than making them public. At most, they will announce them in a small circle.
Even if they want to make a deal, most of them will choose to keep a low profile.
In this way, if the owners of the cultural relics come forward, they can directly deny it.
However, although secret holding has such convenience, it also has disadvantages.
"Since they are hidden from the light, even if these things are lost, they will not be able to look for them openly, let alone ask official help for help."
Zhang Pin said while looking at Yang Jianhua.
"Of course we know this, but you have to know that Baron Martin's guard is very tight, and if we break in, we will still violate French law."
Since Yang Jianhua decided to take back the national treasure, he certainly did his research.
Although the cultural relics were invisible to Baron Martin, their thefts were also invisible to the public.
And if their actions are exposed, Baron Martin can also use the excuse that they stole other cultural relics to prosecute them.
