Chapter 698: Aftermath (repair)

The mystery revealed that the Mafia representatives were angry, fearful, slanderous, and awe, but no one dared to shout or threaten in front of Ken Dixon, and many people were relieved.

Knowing the cause and effect of the matter, you finally don't need to worry anymore.

However, just because of a misunderstanding and four bullets, Simon Westero killed the entire Stefano family with a cruel method that was even more mafia than the Mafia, even if the scene suddenly turned into a "vulnerable group". The Mafia representatives felt that a certain young tycoon had done too much, but no one had the idea of ​​revenge for the Stefano family. Even the Tejano family, who was in-law with the Stefano family, did not intend to pursue it any more.

It is human nature to submit to the strong.

In the past, I just thought that Simon Westero was very rich, very rich, and some people had the idea of ​​doing something to make a fortune.

Because of this intersection, the Mafia clearly realized that the world's only super-rich with hundreds of billions of dollars behind the terrorist power represented by them is simply not something they can provoke and contend with.

The party only lasted more than ten minutes. On behalf of Simon, Ken Dixon unceremoniously issued the most straightforward warning to the entire Italian Mafia. Finally, the Mafia representatives each received a glass of strong vodka brought from Ukraine. Was sent off the tanker.

Simon came to the deck from the cabin, looking at the direction of the departure of the Mi-26 helicopter formation, while listening to Ken Dixon's retelling of his contact with the Mafia representatives.

I have just communicated with several representatives of the Glory Society.

Since everything is caused by Versace, there must be a beginning and an end. Melisandre will officially start the acquisition of Versace. In the future, the Glory will be able to recover the accounts secretly'owed' by Versace and complete the final settlement. During the Qing Dynasty, if someone dares to entangle afterwards, it will also be regarded as a provocation to the Westeros system.

As for the Stefano family, the Westeros system will end here.

Of course, if the Glory Society does not intend to let it go, it does not matter. What happens in the future is at your own risk.

According to Simon's orders, Ken Dixon was very strong throughout the exchange, and he did not give the Mafia representatives present any room for bargaining.

This is a very pure shock.

Moreover, the whole thing will not really end here.

The Westero family intelligence team that withdrew from the city of Reggio some time ago will infiltrate Calabria again. In the future, it will also cover areas such as Sicily and Campania in order to monitor the movements of the Mafia. Some people couldn't help but plan to retaliate, and Simon would try to send him to **** in advance.

This monitoring has no time limit.

Whether it's five years or ten years, or even longer, Simon can afford it.

The European part of the Westeros family intelligence team happened to have a long-term and legitimate surveillance project in addition to protecting a bunch of girls.

On the other hand, Melisandre's headquarters will also be relocated from Florence, Italy to Geneva, Switzerland.

Mainly for Sophia's safety considerations.

This matter was discussed very early.

Because Gucci is headquartered in Florence, Melisandre was also headquartered in this central Italian city for the convenience of maintenance.

With the expansion of Melisandre, the corporate headquarters also needs to be adjusted accordingly.

The original plan was to move from Florence to Milan, as the fashion center of Italy, this is the most suitable location. However, after this incident, Simon personally decided to relocate the headquarters of Melisandre to Switzerland. It happened that Melisandre was originally registered in Switzerland.

Moreover, Geneva is only more than two hundred kilometers away from Milan and less than five hundred kilometers away from Florence. It can be reached by a private jet.

Very convenient.

Because there are already two countries, Geneva is not easily accessible by Mafia forces.

As long as the Mafia is not too stupid, you should understand that it doesn't matter if you make trouble in the country. Once you cross the border, the Italian government can no longer make a mess. It must give an explanation.

In addition, certain people selected from Ukraine will enter Italy first in the near future.

The gangs in Italy are very prosperous, but they are not without the living soil for outsiders. There are foreign gangs in Rome, Milan, Naples and other big cities.

Including Calabria.

Although the city of Reggio is remote, because it is mixed, outsiders can also gain a foothold, but the danger will be higher and there is not much room for development. However, these are no longer within Simon's consideration. Since he has embarked on this path, he has to lick his blood. If he is able to spell it out, he will be killed, and then he will be unlucky.

The Mediterranean is always sunny.

After Simon and Ken Dixon had talked about the matter, they simply let someone lift a single sofa out of the cabin and sit alone on the wide tanker deck to enjoy the surrounding sea and sky scenery.

It's a pity that there is less beauty around.

Over the years, some people have been suggesting that Simon buy a private yacht, but they have been rejected.

It's not that Simon is not interested in private yachts, but the private yachts that can be built are always too small. For Simon, the 100,000-ton tanker at his feet can meet his acceptance standards.

If Simon really wanted to build such a behemoth now, it would not be impossible, but it was a bit too conspicuous.

Just don't completely.

Anyway, when there is occasional demand, it can be borrowed or rented.

This tanker was borrowed.

In the morning, the oil tanker will sail to Syria on the other side to load crude oil, and then transfer to the Indian Ocean via the Suez Canal in the southern Mediterranean to Asia.

Six Mi-26 heavy helicopters were also temporarily seconded.

However, this time it is my own business.

The arms trading company registered with the Westeros system in Australia will transport these heavy helicopters from the Ukrainian army to Angola in Africa. The Mi-26 is too large to be transported by air, and will directly fly the helicopter across Africa. It is not bad for countries to arrive directly in Angola. It is a heavy-duty transport helicopter. It is easy to fly more than 6,000 kilometers with enough fuel, and it only takes two days.

Unfortunately, this idea does not have practical feasibility.

Even if the country agrees to take the route and then plucks the feathers after complicated approvals, a few months will pass. It is better to go by sea.

Starting from the port of Odessa in Ukraine, crossing the Black Sea and the Mediterranean to the Atlantic Ocean, and hurried around the west coast of Africa to Angola. The voyage is more than 13,000 kilometers, which takes about 20 days.

During the Cold War, Africa was an important battlefield for the United States and the Soviet Union. Angola fought a civil war for decades with the support of the two major powers.

In fact, the disintegration of the Soviet Union also had the reason that this country spared no effort to provide huge military aid to Africa.

Now, although the Soviet Union no longer exists, in Angola in southwest Africa, the party in power was once supported by the Soviet Union. At the end of the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union gradually reduced their interference in Africa, and the opposition in Angola that was originally supported by the United States has begun to decline. However, in the first half of the year, because of dissatisfaction with the results of the first presidential election after the mediation of the parties, the opposition launched another civil war.

Once Rwanda was settled, the Westeros system began to spread rapidly in Africa.

Countries such as Kenya and Tanzania in East Africa are relatively stable and are traditional spheres of influence of the United Kingdom and the United States. Among these countries, Kenya is still a member of the Commonwealth and has little room for operation.

North Africa is a French territory, and it is not easy to get involved.

Simon focused his targets on several Southwest African countries that were still in war.

Angola, which is rich in natural resources, is the top priority.

The former big brother has disappeared, and the Angolan government understands that to maintain its position, it must have a good relationship with the West. The operation team of the Westeros system expressed that they could get in touch with this, including pushing the current President of Angola, Dos Santos, to visit the United States, so the two sides hit it off.

This transaction is not the first cooperation between the two parties.

The Angolan government army hopes to strengthen its ability to transport forces in response to opposition guerrilla warfare. For jungle operations, helicopter transportation is obviously the most suitable. Western helicopters cannot be bought in Angola, but so are Soviet helicopters. After decades of civil war, Angola is also very poor. Even if it has some money, the authorities will spend as much as possible on light weapons that can strengthen the military.

The arms trading company of the Westeros system provides another opportunity for Angola.

No cash is needed, just exchange.

The ex-factory price of the Mi-26 heavy helicopter when it went on sale in the 1980s reached 10 million US dollars. At this stage, the brand new Mi-26 heavy helicopter needs 12 million US dollars.

The Ukrainian Army eliminated this batch, which took only five years to assemble, and the authorities gave a $5 million quotation after evaluation.

The $5 million here is the price that was transferred to the Westeros System Arms Trading Company.

The Westeros system is then resold to Angola, and the contract price becomes 7 million US dollars, an increase of 40%.

In Ukraine, six helicopters totaled 30 million U.S. dollars. The Westeros system will make cash payments through overseas banks. As for how much will flow into the Ukrainian government treasury in the end, Simon does not care. Even if something is stabbed out in the future, Wess The Tello system is only a middleman, and does not benefit from it.

Although the price increase is as high as 40%, it is only the contract price. Angola does not need to pay in cash. The other party granted the mining rights to a diamond mine for 30 years.

The mining experts sent by the Johnston Holdings Group have conducted a detailed assessment of the target diamond mine in advance. The diamond mine is still rich in reserves and may not be mined for 30 years, but the next decade will bring a conservative estimate of not less than 100 million US dollars. Rough diamonds are not a problem.

It would be even more cost-effective if you can mine some top-quality rough stones, or if you find that there are special holes in the veins.

The actual cost of 30 million US dollars in exchange for a 10-year return of 100 million US dollars, the annual income is only equivalent to 7%, for the Westeros system is actually a loss, but things are not calculated like this.

Not to mention that 10 years of mining of 100 million US dollars of rough ore is only the most conservative estimate. Simon prefers the 30-year period.

This means that the Westeros system can operate legally around this diamond mine in Angola for 30 years. This time, the UFMS mercenary team responsible for escorting six Mi-26s will be stationed in Angola directly in the name of protecting the diamond mine, and will also be responsible for the Mi-26 driving training for the Angolan government forces.

Apart from Rwanda, Angola is Simon's second base in Africa.

Initially, the large amount of equipment seized by Ukrainian mercenaries from the Rwandan government army was sold cheaply to Angola where the civil war broke out again. Because of Rwanda, the family of Angolan President Dos Santos was very wary of the Westeros system. After several consecutive cooperations in recent months, the two sides have initially established trust.

Six Mi-26s sent the Mafia representatives back to the city of Reggio and returned. Five of them flew directly to the large cargo ships parked dozens of kilometers away. Simon took the last one to Tunisia, which borders Libya in the south. Fly to Helsinki, Finland by private jet in Tunisia.

On the second day of the tanker gathering, a series of fast-spreading gossip appeared on the Italian Internet platform.

Half a month ago, the Stefano family of the Glory of Calabria was killed because it provokes a super rich man.

It is rumored that the Stefano family wanted to force companies under the name of the rich to provide them with money laundering channels. In order to achieve their goal, the other party even sent a bomb to the home of the rich.

As a result, the super-rich was completely offended.

It's completely beyond the scope of stealing chicken and losing rice, so the whole family folded in.

This is just one version.

In just one day, insider reports on the killing of the Stefano family on online forums and social networks can be described as varied.

The overall core has not changed.

The Stefano family tried to threaten a super rich man, and then the angry super rich man killed the whole family.

There is no impermeable wall in the world.

In order to avoid certain passive public opinion situations, Simon took the initiative to expose the'truth' through online channels. Moreover, many versions have been specially arranged, enough to attract the public's attention to different targets.

In the following days, various gossip inside stories spread from the Internet to the entities, from Italy to overseas.

After repeated evolution, the truth is completely inaudible.

As a result, the Agnelli family behind the Italian Fiat Group, the current Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi, the Italian chocolate king Ferrero family, etc., were all publicly tested by bold reporters whether it was related to the Stefano family incident. The result naturally got a negative answer.

As things continue to spread, the wealthy of European countries and even the wealthiest businessmen of North America have been included on the list of suspicions.

If it is said that the super rich, few in this world are more well-deserved than Simon Westero.

Simon has naturally become a suspicious target for the media.

When the spokesperson of the Westeros family media in Los Angeles, Pat Kingsley, was asked by reporters if he knew about the Stefano family incident, he also received a very model negative answer.

As for the truth.

The main reason why the Italian Mafia is strong is that they are located in an important ‘transport’ hub connecting North America, Latin America, Eastern Europe and Western Europe, and they have contacts with gangs almost all over the world.

Therefore, the truth quickly spread throughout the world.

This is what Simon needs to see.

Publicly manipulated public opinion to confuse the audience, avoid the Westeros system as a target, and privately spread the news to the underground forces of the whole world, which has the deterrent effect Simon needs.

On the side of the Glory Club, Simon spent three days in Finland for Nokia, and then quietly went around St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kiev and Rivni.

Back to Venice, Italy, the time is already September 19th. The closing ceremony of the 51st Venice Film Festival was held today.

After arriving in Italy, the aftermath of certain things continued, but Simon no longer needed much intervention.

This year's Venice Film Festival, in Simon's view, is also a big year.

On Daenerys Entertainment's side, there are two films including Peter Jackson's "Angels of Sin" and Alexander Rockwell's "Dangerous Men and Women" shortlisted for the main competition.

Both movies have received good reviews.

For Peter Jackson, Simon did not encourage him because of his importance, and has always tried his best to let the other party grow according to his previous career trajectory. Of course, in order to increase Jackson's familiarity with special effects, in recent years, the other party has been more or less involved in the production of DC movie universe blockbusters in Australia.

This "Angels of Sin" can be described as Peter Jackson, who is accustomed to all kinds of evil tastes, a rare and serious work that tells a real mother-killing incident.

In order to maintain the film’s ‘original appearance’, Simon intervened a little. The two heroines of the film are both original versions, one is Kate Winslet and the other is Melanie Linsky.

Needless to say Fei Wen, the other Melanie Linsky is the very popular Rose in "Two and a Half Men".

In addition to Daenerys Entertainment's participating films, Warner Bros. also put Oliver Stone's "Born Murderer", which had been drawn in North America at the end of August, into the main competition unit.

In addition, this year there were two other famous films, "Bright Sunny Day" and "Evil in the West".

In my memory, the two films that won this Venice Golden Lion Award, "A Rainstorm Is Coming" and "Long Live Love" are equally outstanding.

As for the judges, in addition to the lead David Lynch, Nicole Kidman was also pulled over as a big vase for every film festival.

"Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" is still in theaters around the world, and "Suicide Squad" is coming at the end of the year.

As a result, Nicole Kidman’s popularity directly overwhelmed the entire jury, and many European fans came to Venice deliberately to see Mia in "Pulp Fiction" and the poison in "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" There was even a follow-up incident for Teng Nv Fangrong, which caused the organizers to urgently strengthen Nicole's security work.
