"Andis is a puppet pushed by the moderates of the Canter tribe. It is very strange for him to stand up and accuse election fraud at this time! Something is wrong here! Mr. President should take resolute and decisive actions to resolve the upcoming crisis facing the Seviy family!
"
Ryan Fortis saw some impatience on Bardinay's young face and refused to listen to his advice, but he still insisted,
"Badinay, you cannot be indifferent to the current situation. Don't think that it is possible to overturn this election through the electoral commission or other legal procedures. If time is delayed indefinitely, and the president has not taken decisive actions and measures, it will only
It makes the people who support him suspect that the president's style of dealing with things has stopped being sharp and decisive, and has become weak, so that he may fall in love with this evil woman who is trying to steal President Akwa's power!"
Badine. Little Seviy closed his eyes. To be honest, today's election result surprised him, but he was also very tired. In order to have the opportunity to take over the Seviy family, he acted as his father's candidate this time.
Assistant, the result deviated so much from the prediction, which caused him to be questioned too much.
From the last few sprints of the election to now, he has not slept for a few hours. He is tired of Ryan Fortis's endless chatter:
It is easy for Ryan Fortis to say it, but all the risks must be borne by the Savvy family!
The re-establishment of a military government to take over Akwa's national power will not only lead to a new round of severe blockade by the international community and freeze the Saiwei family's overseas wealth, but will also cause internal conflicts between the Kant moderates and extremist forces in Akwa.
The peace talks fell into a whirlpool of division and war.
If the unrest can be suppressed, the Saiwei family will never mind cutting off tens of thousands more heads, but this time they are not sure whether the Akan people will support his family as always.
Now that we have the opportunity to annul the election results through the electoral committee and stop the attacks on the Seviy family at home and abroad, why should we take such a big risk to launch a military coup?
Of course, even if the abolition of Yuanju is not feasible in the end, Badinay Seviyi will not think that senior figures in the military and government will agree with a woman like Roima Sero ruling this country.
Bardinay Little Seviy thought that it would not be too late to prepare for the worst.

In a secret manor by the sea in the southern suburbs of Dahomey, although everything has not been settled yet, May Mantal slept so comfortably for the first time in the past two months.
The sun shone in through the gauze curtains and fell softly on her face. May Mantal woke up, feeling comfortable deep down in her bones, as if all her fatigue had been washed away overnight.
"The way Mei looked at you last night was like a little bitch in a hurry. She wanted to eat you alive. So don't think about sending me away today. I won't give you a chance to steal."
of!"
"Is this the reason why you stayed so late last night and seduced me so many times?"
Mei Yi was silently learning Chinese by herself. Her dictation skills were a bit weak, but she could still understand what Cao Mo and Zhou Han were saying outside, and her face felt a little hot. She rushed over yesterday and didn't expect to meet Cao Mo. At first glance, she met Cao Mo.
I was stunned and couldn't help but stare at that face for a while, but I didn't want to cause such a misunderstanding.
But then I thought again, even though I was determined to imitate Ms. Roima Sero and devote herself to politics, it would be okay if that man walked in and tried to seduce her into having a beautiful memory.
The sound of the mobile phone interrupted Mei Yi's charming fantasy. She reached for the mobile phone from the pillow and saw a call from Ms. Selo. She called and learned that Ms. Selo had arrived in Talima City.
The current President Seviy decided to stand still and did not take any more substantive actions except for continuously issuing verbal protests, urging the election commission and the corresponding judicial institutions to review the election fraud and declaring the election results invalid.
But for Roima Sello, it was a struggle with no retreat. She no longer needed to be secretive. She rushed to Dahomey the day after the election results were announced, and first met May and others.
Accompanied by the delegation, he met with moderate representatives of the Kant ethnic group.
There have been countless bloody conflicts between the Kant tribe and the Akan tribe in recent years. Even the moderate Kant tribe who preside over ethnic reconciliation are not afraid of offending the Sevi family.
And if the choice can only be made between Saiwei launching a military coup to restart the dictatorship or accepting a female president to govern the country, the moderate forces of the Kant ethnic group will choose the latter without hesitation, and may even feel that a weak character
The Akan female president is in power and she is of descendant of new immigrants, which will be more beneficial for the Kant people to fight for their due interests.
The Kant moderate party expressed great enthusiasm for the arrival of Roima Cerro. At the same time, in order to prevent the worst situation from happening, they quickly summoned the Kant militia in Dahomey - for this purpose, they petitioned the Atlantic Bank for review.
A special loan of US$200 million was provided for this additional local expenditure.
Therefore, Seviyi did not take decisive action and allowed Roima Sero to leave the capital Pemme and enter Dahomey, the stronghold of the moderate forces of the Kant tribe, which was doomed to irreversible failure.
Of course, Roima Cerro was not satisfied with this, and rushed to Talima, another stronghold of moderate forces in the Kant tribe, while Mei stayed in Dahomey and was responsible for contacting Cao Mo, who never showed up.
, discuss the many details that need to be vigilant in the aftermath of taking over presidential power, and strive for more support.
Mei Yi was embarrassed to say that she didn't talk about anything after seeing Cao Mo yesterday, so she just had a good night's sleep.
After briefly reporting last night's itinerary, she hung up the phone, walked out of the bedroom after briefly freshening up, and met Cao Mo and Zhou Han who were sitting in the living room waiting for her to get up.
A woman's appearance has a lot to do with her complexion.
Mei was too tired during this period. She rushed to the manor last night. Her haggard face gave people a pitiful feeling and was somewhat gloomy. However, after a good sleep, Mei Mei's white and shiny skin showed a moist luster.
The eleven-year-old Mei Yi was at the moment when a woman's appearance is most mature and beautiful. Her bare feet stepped on the rough wooden floor, as if they were pierced by wooden thorns. She frowned and raised her feet. Zhou Han looked at it.
I feel a sense of pity.
Mei believed in Catholicism and aspired to become a political woman. She usually dressed conservatively in front of outsiders, but this time she came out to see them wearing a silk nightgown. She especially raised her feet to see if they were pricked by wooden thorns and lifted the hem of her skirt.
, the exposed thighs may not be too much, which makes Zhou Han feel itchy with hatred: Are you pretending that I don’t exist?
…………
…………
Seviyi's slow response allowed Roima Sero to completely win over the moderate forces of the Canter tribe in just four or five days.
In addition to direct voter support, the support of the moderate forces of the Kant ethnic group gives Roima Sero the hard power to directly confront Sevi.
This was what touched the onlookers around Seviy the most.
Because even if they are loyal to Seviyi at this time, even if they follow Seviyi in launching a military coup, they may not be able to win the final victory, and the possibility of failure is even higher.
Subsequently, many political figures in Benin, Kanem and other countries publicly expressed concern about the results of the Akwa election, and tacitly allowed domestic women's groups to carry out various activities to celebrate the birth of Africa's first female leader. The Economic Community of West African States
The internal atmosphere also changed rapidly in just a few days.
Hu Enmu, deputy chief of staff of the Army, and others publicly stated that they recognized the election results and respected the choice of the people of Akwa, and the situation was almost settled; the National Assembly and other statutory bodies in Akwa also began to follow established procedures to evaluate the current incumbents.
The last month of President Sevi's term has been limited to ensure a smooth transfer of power when it expires.
At this time, it was already too late for the current President Seviy to surrender.
Almost all the important people around him, even those who had firmly supported him, now wisely chose to side with the new president.
In mid-September, Seviyi encouraged the people who supported him to attack the electoral committee in a last-ditch attempt, but were suppressed by the military and police. At this time, he realized that the situation was over and approached Roima Sero and the Ete tribe through an intermediary.
The leaders of the moderate forces discussed the transfer of power and the arrangements for the Saivi family after handing over power.
This is Akwa's internal affairs, and Cao Mo will not interfere in anything.
And when it comes to his hatred for the Saiviyi family, Tianyue may have to move ten miles away, and it is not his turn to take any action to retaliate against the Saiviyi family.
Regarding Roima Sero's proposal to impose a special resource tax on overseas miners after taking office, Xie Sipeng, who took office as the president of Ibogu Mining, publicly expressed his willingness to hold discussions with the Akwa authorities.
In fact, Cao Mo has secretly negotiated an agreement with Roima Cerro to impose a special resource tax of 8% on profit income. However, it is not clear how European and American society will react to this, so for the time being, he can only give a relatively positive attitude.
Will not give a clear response directly.
This is politics.
If Tianyue cooperates so actively, Roima Sero still cannot convince other European and American miners investing in Akwa to accept the corresponding terms, and cannot persuade the Akwa Congress to pass relevant bills, and Tianyue certainly does not need to bear the responsibility.
this tax.
However, in any case, the obstacles faced by a series of major projects such as the second mine of the Usan River Copper and Gold Mine, the Mamba-Cotonou Railway, and the expansion of the Cotonou Port have been completely removed at this moment; and Ibogu Mining,
In addition to raising US$2 billion in funds for these projects, China National Mining Corporation, China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, and Xinhai Port Group have even organized construction teams before September, and have even begun construction in Benin.
Among them, the Cotonou Port expansion project is a direct investment by Xinhai Port Group. In the first phase, a ro-ro terminal with an annual throughput of 20 million tons will be built. Together with the Mamba-Catro railway, it will provide Mamba iron ore and other resources from Cotonou.
Prepare to go to sea.
The Cotonou Steel Base, the second phase of the project has been completed, and the annual demand for Mangba iron ore is only more than 6 million tons. However, Mangba Iron Ore is a giant that can reach the scale of economic mining of hundreds of millions of tons of high-quality iron ore.
The annual mining scale of iron ore at this time was less than 10 million tons.
If the Mangba Iron Mine wants to expand the scale of mining, the bottleneck is not the iron ore itself, but the railway connecting the Mangba Railway with Pemé Port and Cotonou Port and the transportation capacity of the two ports themselves.
At present, domestic steel production capacity continues to explode, and the dependence on iron ore from Brazil and Australia is getting higher and higher. Last year, the total amount of imported iron ore exceeded 700 million tons, and by 2015, 2016, imported iron ore
The annual scale of ore is expected to exceed one billion tons.
Such a high degree of dependence puts domestic steel companies at an absolute disadvantage in price negotiations with several major mining giants that monopolize the international supply of iron ore.
Last year, the China Iron and Steel Association suffered a huge loss in its negotiations with international mining giants such as Rio Tinto and was forced to accept a high negotiated price. It lost less than 20 billion US dollars in foreign exchange a year from iron ore imports alone.
The State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission has enabled China Mining and other central enterprises to make strides in West Africa. The core target in the early stage is also the Mangba Iron Mine.
After September, China Mining officially negotiated with the Roima-Sero government to invest in the Mangba Iron Ore, the new Mangba-Peme Port Railway and the expansion of the Peme Port Iron Ore Terminal. The first-phase investment amount was as high as three million yuan.
The billion-dollar plan will strive for three to five years to enable the Akwaitou Mamba Iron Mine in Benin to transport 50 million tons of iron ore to China every year.
Tianyue's new industrial investments in the Gulf of Guinea will mainly focus on the development of the Usan River copper and gold mine in the future.
In September 2011, the international gold price reached a high of US$1,900 per ounce.
Although no one can be sure how long the international gold price will remain at such a high level. It is impossible for the Usang River Copper and Gold Mine to maintain such a high price during its thirty-year mining cycle. However, the latest price of the Usang River Copper and Gold Mine
It is announced that the proven reserves of metallic copper have accumulated to 18 million tons. When the second mine and the third mine are completed, the annual mining scale of Wusang River Copper and Gold Mine will reach 500,000 tons of metallic copper and 1.2 million tons.
Thousands of ounces of gold.
Although to achieve such a mining scale, the investment in the second and third mines and in Drake City alone is as high as five to six billion US dollars, but the profits generated by Ibogu Mining at this time are enough to support such a high investment.
.
Cao Mo doesn't expect dividends from Yibogu Mining now. If he wants cash, he can just transfer some shares of Yibogu Mining.
The political situation in Akwa has stabilized, and it is generally believed internationally that Africa's first female president will bring a more stable transition to Akwa and strengthen its domestic economic development.
Even if Ibogu Mining quickly accepts the negotiation terms of the special resource tax negotiated by the Roima Sero government, it is exactly the same. The Usan River copper and gold mine, in which Ibogu Mining holds 80% of the shares, is more optimistic about the development of the international community.
prospect.
Ibogu Mining is not publicly listed, but the price of internally transferred shares was directly calculated based on a valuation of US$20 billion after the Akwa crisis was resolved.
Gold and copper futures are very hot right now. Many private equity investment institutions and some family funds are very willing to take over some shares of Ibogu Mining at this price. However, because it is not publicly listed, through individual business contacts, they are willing to take over.
After all, the scale of funds is still very limited.
Through Tianyue Investment, Cao Mo finally reduced his shareholding in Yibogu Mining to 49%, and exchanged it for one billion US dollars to return to China, which was enough for him in a short time.
In addition to the huge subsequent investment required by the Wusang River copper and gold mine, Tianyue's other new investments in West Africa are very limited.
In mid-September, Fulkov Petrochemical Group will sell 50% of the shares of Conero Lake Port to Xinhai Port Group for US$200 million, and Xinhai Port Group will undertake the subsequent container code and other expansion projects of Conero Lake Port. This is also
Domestic senior officials intend to accelerate the layout of port investment on the southeastern coast of the Atlantic Ocean; Falkov Petrochemical Group can concentrate on crude oil extraction and refining business.
The New Port City, including the Cornero Industrial Park, and the New Industrial Park City in Cotonou will eventually accept capital injections from central enterprises such as China National Mining Corporation and China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation, so that the state can intentionally guide more Chinese capital into Africa.
——These areas do not require Cao Mo to invest additional funds.
In addition to Ibogu Mining, the Fercosi Petrochemical Group is in the expansion period and cannot provide dividends. West African United Cement, Dongsheng Real Estate, etc. can still distribute a lot of dividends every year.
In China, only Tianyue Industrial needs Cao Mo to continue to provide capital support.
After the initial expansion period of Cornero Energy, Tianyue Industrial has now entered the profit harvesting stage. Including palm oil, cocoa and other businesses, its profit in the first half of 11 exceeded RMB 2 billion, and its market value will be
Rapidly rose to 40 billion.
…………
…………
Cao Fangming is now satisfied.
Although the Tianyue Industrial stocks he increased after the Spring Festival were very limited, and he did not dare to borrow large sums of money to take a chance, the market value of Tianyue Industrial was less than 8 billion before the stock price rose, and eight or nine months would be enough.
It has increased fivefold. He has patched things together, and now he barely dares to call himself a billionaire.
Of course, Cao Fangming also knew the key to this, which was that he signed a concerted action agreement and all his shareholdings were locked.
Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for him to hold Tianyue Industrial's stock until the end, and he might sell it after a few daily limits, and then continue to regret it for the rest of his life.
After Cao Mo finished handling overseas affairs and returned home for vacation on the first day, Cao Fangming heard the news and rushed to Tianzifang.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Cao Mo and Cheng Xi walking out and asked:
"You just got off the plane, where are you going?"
"We are all old colleagues in Dongsheng. Please advise me and Cheng Xi to go and see them off in person - besides, time is tight. If you want to make the plane more comfortable, you can't arrange too many seats. We have to do it in these two days.
Only by determining how many people will come with us can we determine how many planes to charter to get there..." Cao Mo said.
"Can Air China charter flights also change the seats in the cabin?" Cao Fangming asked in confusion.
Cao Mo rubbed his fingers.
Cao Fangming patted his head with emotion, thinking that Cao Mo really didn't need to worry about spending an extra thousand or eight million on a chartered flight.
Cao Mo and Cheng Xi drove to Dongsheng Building. They had just parked the car on the side of the road and were about to call their old colleagues who were still working in Dongsheng Group. Suddenly they saw a Passat parked across the street. Guo Jiancong
His face appeared in the car window, staring gloomily at the entrance and exit of Dongsheng Building.
The violent aura Cao Mo intuitively felt from Guo Jian sent a chill down his spine. He pressed Cheng Xi's hand and signaled her not to get out of the car.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Xi looked across the street in confusion. She was a little short-sighted and didn't wear glasses when she went out. She couldn't see who was sitting in the car across the street.
"It's Guo Jian sitting in the car opposite, but he feels very wrong today!" Cao Mocong took out his cell phone and dialed it directly for Xu Xin, who was transferred back to China to serve as the secretary of the board of directors of Dongsheng Group.
"Oh, you just thought about calling me when you returned to China. Do you want to come over and give me advice on your marriage to Cheng Xi?"
Cao Mo could hear the joy in Xu Xin's voice, and asked directly: "Has Guo Jian contacted you recently?"
"Well, he said that I left something with him during the divorce and he wanted to return it to me. I asked him to send it directly to Dongsheng Building - ah, there was a call coming in. Maybe he has arrived. You won't
Have you seen Guo Jian downstairs in Dongsheng?" Xu Xin asked on the phone.
"Don't come out to see him!" Cao Mo said, "I'm downstairs in Dongsheng Building right now, and I saw him sitting in a car, but something is wrong. You ask the company security to come out and go to him directly to get his things back..."
