Chapter 323 Professor Wu sits in person(1/2)
Phoenix Group has a total of two main operations in Burundi.
One is specialized in the production of various products in the Phoenix Industrial Park, and the other is the mining of lithium ore in the lithium ore mine.
The call on the other end of the phone was from the lithium ore mine.
The voice on the phone was very urgent.
"Mr. Su, something happened at the mine."
"The mining workers who came early this morning heard that we had temporarily suspended work, and they heard that the industrial park was attacked, and they started to riot."
"Someone took the lead in surrounding the mine and asked us to pay last week's wages immediately. We don't have so much cash at all right now..."
When Su Feixiang heard this, he suddenly became irritable.
Not long after the attack, he temporarily suspended work in the industrial park and mines and put them under full martial law. After all, it was really dangerous now that we and the enemy were unknown.
Unexpectedly, as soon as work stopped, the local workers immediately started clamoring to pay their wages.
Su Feixiang knew very well what these people were thinking, but although he was a little unhappy, he still complied.
"Settlement to them, I will coordinate the cash delivery to you right away."
"By the way, ask the police to help maintain order. Don't let anything go wrong in the mine."
As soon as he finished speaking, a more anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Mr. Su, I just wanted to tell you about this."
"The police officer they led just now specifically said hello to me. He meant that the situation here is normal and that if nothing happens, we should prepare to evacuate."
"Now they are dismantling the cordon."
Ready to evacuate?!
Su Feixiang was stunned for a moment.
After the attack, he immediately called the police and contacted relevant high-level government departments in Burundi.
Both the police station and high-level departments took it very seriously when they heard about the explosion attack by the Phoenix Group. The police station rushed to the scene before three o'clock in the night to seal off the industrial park.
After everyone came to their senses, the police station took the initiative to dispatch police officers to protect the Phoenix Lithium Mine to avoid being attacked again.
It can be said that Burundi's top management and police not only take this bombing attack seriously, but are also afraid that the Phoenix Group will withdraw its investment and leave due to concerns about safety.
But now?!
In just a few hours, they went from proactively dispatching police to protect the mine to now voluntarily leaving?!
What is happening?!
In an instant, Su Feixiang thought that what Xiao Qiang reported just now might be an attack carried out by Ami's special forces.
Could it be?
Burundi's top leaders also received the same intelligence and knew that this time it was Aramco's special forces that attacked the industrial park, and...
Do they not want to offend Ami?!!
Thinking of this, Su Feixiang felt even more excited and his mind was buzzing.
The impact of this matter has exceeded the scope of his control. After a few words of warning on the phone, he immediately hung up the phone.
He didn't bother to ask someone to prepare cash to send it, and quickly picked up the phone and dialed the domestic headquarters.
…
Phoenix Group Headquarters, Hu came to the office.
The office was filled with smoke. Just after Chen Hai speculated that Aramco's special forces might have attacked the Phoenix Industrial Park, the three of them could no longer calm down.
After all calculations, the Phoenix Group gave up all its overseas business in important places such as Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea. Unexpectedly, it eventually suffered a heavy stumble in Burundi.
I originally thought that Aramco had not taken any action on the Burundi industrial park for so long, so it might be because it looked down upon the industrial park.
It was too lucky and too careless! Ami is here waiting for a heavy blow!
In addition, the most troublesome thing for Hu Lai is.
Once this is really done by the Aramco special forces, what should the Phoenix Group do next in its industrial park in Burundi?!
You know, in Africa it is not as big as in China. No matter how little influence Aramco has in Africa, he is also the world's boss in name and can really go sideways.
After being targeted by them, the security of the industrial park is on the one hand, and on the other hand, they must also consider whether the Burundian leaders will completely turn to Aramco and directly drive the Phoenix Group out of Burundi once they put pressure on Burundi's top leaders.
This kind of situation is not unheard of, it is very common.
Has it really come to that point? The Burundi market that Phoenix Group has been operating for more than a year has left the Burundi market in despair?!
Just when Hu Lai and others were having a headache, Director Zhang, who was in charge of receiving the latest news, answered Su Feixiang's call.
When the phone was hung up, Director Zhang's face turned pale.
"Boss, Director Chen, you are right."
Hit the mark?
After these three simple words, Hu Lai's face turned completely cold. Although he had expected it, when he actually heard the confirmation of the news, he couldn't help but feel fierce anger.
"You're so fucking shameless!"
All three of them had gloomy faces, and Director Zhang continued:
"According to the news sent back by Su Feixiang, they discovered the cave where the attackers gathered temporarily before the attack. Judging from the gunshots at the scene, all the evidence points to Ami."
"On the other hand, the intelligence department of the Security Bureau also investigated that the vehicle they used drove into Burundi from the Democratic Republic of Congo next door."
"So, although we don't have 100% evidence to prove it, from so many proofs, it can be inferred that it was Aramco's special forces stationed in the Democratic Republic of the Congo that did it."
"In addition, there is a new situation..."
Director Zhang paused, saw Hu Lai and Chen Hai looking at him, and then said:
"According to Su Feixiang's judgment, Burundi's top brass should also know that this matter was done by Aramco's special forces."
"The police who originally proposed to guard the lithium mine were all withdrawn at noon. Even the police who stayed at the explosion site in the industrial park only had a few..."
"This change in attitude before and after should be a sign of goodwill to Ami."
As soon as Director Zhang finished speaking, Hu Lai frowned instantly and felt a chill in his heart.
This is what worries him most.
Let alone Burundi’s top leaders helping the Phoenix Group, it would be best if they did not get involved.
If Burundi's top management gets in touch with Aramco and then launches various types of suppression against the Phoenix Group, then the Phoenix Group's efforts in Burundi over the past two years will really come to an end.
You know, in a poor place like Burundi, it is impossible to expect their top management to have any integrity or strategic vision.
They are all just wallflowers who are blind to money!
Hu Lai is very sober. This kind of situation is too common all over the world. It happens not once or twice.
Thinking of this, Hu Lai frowned and stood up and walked around the office twice.
Although the situation is much clearer now, we know who did it.
But things have begun to get out of control. After Aramco and Burundian senior officials got involved, they even said that the Phoenix Group's Burundi Industrial Park was in a dangerous situation.
"How should we break the situation next?!"
Just when Hu Lai frowned and thought about the next step, Chen Hai suddenly said:
"Mr. Hu, based on my many years of experience in foreign work, what we need to do now is to stabilize the top management of Burundi."
"If they really fall to Aramco, then the Phoenix Group will have absolutely no place in Burundi, and all previous efforts will be in vain!"
Hu Lai stopped and said nothing, looking at Chen Hai.
"I guess Burundi's top leaders are also concerned about the subsequent development of the matter. If they can really get assistance from Aramco, they will definitely be very happy to support Aramco."
"but!"
"The good news for us is that Aramco has no commercial interests in Burundi, and the most they can do is give verbal promises to Burundi's top leaders."
"We all know that Aramco, as an old capitalist country, will never provide unconditional assistance to Burundi for unprofitable things and help Burundi develop? Their capitalists cannot do such a good thing."
"So, now we must quickly communicate with Burundi's top leaders and take the initiative."
Hu Lai thought quickly in his mind, it was indeed what Chen Hai said.
Even if the powerful dragon does not overwhelm the local snakes, as long as Burundi's top leaders turn to the Phoenix Group, Ami will not dare to blatantly do so even though it is awesome.
But if Burundi's top leaders turn to Aramco, there will be many ways to deal with the Phoenix Group.
After thinking about this, Hu Lai kept nodding.
Director Zhang, who was standing nearby, also felt that this should be the case and quickly said:
"Boss, I will call Su Feixiang now to inform him and ask him to quickly contact the senior management of Burundi."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Hu Lai could respond, Chen Hai on the side continued:
"Mr. Hu, this matter is of great importance. I think we can send someone to handle it."
To be continued...
