Chapter 140 When the tragedy live broadcast is in progress
The biggest difference between a civilized society and a barbaric society is that human beings will not indiscriminately kill their compatriots. Obviously, the Indonesians at this time have completely degenerated into a barbaric society.Whether it is the information provided by the CIA or the information Jade obtained from the Chinese American Historical Society, although the Indonesian government did not directly participate in this brutal incident, the connivance of the government and the army is the indirect result of the three black days in Jakarta. one of the reasons.
After Suharto came to power through a military coup, Indonesia's economy has not really developed. It is only because Suharto completely fell to the United States during the Cold War that it received a lot of "American aid", which caused the entire Indonesian economy to The abnormal development of the world-the rich get richer, and the poor get richer.In Indonesia, apart from the bureaucratic class, the wealthy ethnic group is the Chinese class with a minority population.The affluent Chinese class without political status has naturally become the primary target of jealousy in Indonesian society, and the bureaucracy is also happy to drag all hatred on the Chinese ethnic group.
With the outbreak of the Southeast Asian financial crisis in 1997, the entire Indonesian social economy suffered a near-collapse situation, which also intensified the antagonism of the entire social group.And at the moment when the volcano was about to erupt, the military and the government suddenly "unintentionally" created a power vacuum in Jakarta, and a tragedy broke out.
Starting at 5:13 pm on May [-]th, Hong Kong time, the Hong Kong, International, Chinese, News, and Financial Channels of ABC and Asia Satellite TV under ABC and ATV suddenly interrupted their normal programs. Asia TV and Asia Satellite TV, which used lively colors as the main color of the TV station, suddenly changed to a very serious color tone, and the "emergency news" used a very dazzling blood red, and the words "Indonesian Chinese crisis" followed An unsettling black.
The Asia News Center has set up three anchor stations, which respectively used Cantonese, Mandarin and English to pre-broadcast the tragedy that happened in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, to the whole of Asia in the afternoon.At this time in Jakarta, there were still three groups of reporters from the Asia News Center who either hid in hotels to sort out and distribute relevant materials, or lurked in some places to film the crisis that Indonesian Chinese were suffering.
Since ATV's Chinese channel was launched on the mainland, and ATV's news channel was launched in Taiwan, people on both sides of the strait soon knew that a terrible crisis had broken out in Indonesia.At the same time, international authoritative media also quoted the English-language news of ATV International to broadcast this "humanitarian tragedy" to more regions.
Finally, an hour after the riot broke out in Jakarta, the three major news channels in the United States: , msnBc and Foxnews also broadcast the corresponding news.
"Mr. Soros, let's get started!" Jed dialed Soros.
Immediately, the foreign exchange market saw a huge amount of funds desperately suppressing the Indonesian rupiah. At the same time, the Indonesian stock market encountered an unprecedented wave of funds selling short-term index.This time, not only investors in Indonesia, but also investors in Asia are dumbfounded. Could it be that what happened last year will happen again.The first to suffer from the bankruptcy crisis was the entire Indonesian financial industry. Almost two-thirds of the banks announced their closure on the 13th, and the remaining banks only lasted for a day under the run of the bank. By midnight on the 13th, Indonesia's financial industry is in a "shutdown" situation.
Due to the collapse of the financial industry, the real estate industry, which is most closely related to the financial industry, has also plunged decisively. The usually arrogant real estate tycoons have sold off their real estate and land in order to obtain enough cash flow to carry them through.Immediately afterwards, the processing industry also shut down.Originally, the Indonesian economy would still be supported by a group of rich Chinese. Although they are not recognized by the Indonesians, they will save the Indonesian economy for their own economic interests.It's a pity that the rich Indonesians at this time were either on the way to escape, or were slaughtered by the natives of Indonesia.
Although news channels around the world are broadcasting the tragedy in Indonesia, President Suharto still hides in Egypt and pretends nothing happened.A reporter from the Asia News Center once again broke the news that the so-called "Indonesian students" who took to the streets to smash and loot Chinese shops and massacre Chinese on May 5 were all disguised as Indonesian military personnel.
What surprised Jade was that the reporter of the Asia News Center not only got the first-hand information, but even asked a mid-level Indonesian military officer who sympathized with the Chinese to testify.However, the journalists of the Asia News Center who stayed in Indonesia also paid the price of a photojournalist who was seriously injured. Lin Jianyue had to announce the withdrawal of all the journalists who stayed in Indonesia.But this group of reporters left Indonesia with precious evidence, and they even obtained testimony from many low-level Indonesian military officers and government officials.
Although from the afternoon of May 5th, news channels all over the world could not get news images from Indonesia, but the news images in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur were enough to make people feel sad and angry.Large-scale gaming demonstrations have erupted in both Europe and the United States to protest governments' non-intervention practices.
At this time, Li Jiayao also called and told Jade that the American Chinese Historical Association had been invited by the US Congress to participate in a hearing to define the nature of Indonesia's behavior at this time.Jed immediately promised that they would send relevant witnesses and evidence from Hong Kong to Washington, so that Indonesia's ugly behavior would be exposed.
After hanging up Li Jiayao's phone call, Jed received a call from McLaren again, and he asked very rudely on the phone: "Mr. Sherman, you have gone too far this time! The Indonesian government is our United States. Most important ally in Asia, you can't let their government get into this situation! You shut up your TV station and take your money!"
Jed sneered and said: "Dear Mr. McLaren, what is your identity to convince me? The assistant to the chairman of the Federal Reserve is also a national civil servant. Why do you want to lobby me for other governments? How much money did Suharto give you?" I would like to advise your Excellency, you are just a talker, you have the ability to let your master talk to me! Oh yes, after hanging up this call, I think you still have at most half an hour to make up a reason, Because I would have Cargill, Exxon Mobil and BHP Billiton and Rio Tinto executives contact your master, and I think he will respect my allies."
Jed hung up the phone and let out a savage breath.What kind of nonsense Morgan Club really thinks it is a knight order that believes in honor first?To put it bluntly, this Morgan Club is just a community of economic interests, and everyone is only for money. After there are really enough people to ask questions, the little people can compete with the big people.
Jed sat in a chair and looked out the window.An email from Hong Kong alerted him that the evidence had already left on a chartered flight.The email from Soros seemed a little happy, "Gao Ming! I'm glad to see that those lackeys have been taught a lesson."
Soros's email stated that the allies behind him have already made a move. Indonesia's minerals and oil are enough to drive businessmen crazy, not to mention Indonesia's fertile land.Back then, the Netherlands relied on Indonesia to become a world power in one fell swoop. At this time, American businessmen naturally would not give up.The congressmen controlled by these people are enough to make the president of the United States step down, and the bankers associated with them are enough to make the chairman of the Federal Reserve change. McLaren naturally has no way to fight against these people.Only he swallowed a sigh of relief, called Jed to apologize, and said that Suharto would talk to Jed at a convenient time.
Jed coldly refused the phone call with Suharto, "Tell him that we will stay in Indonesia for at least a month. After a month, he will come to me again and beg for forgiveness. I will tell him what he has to pay." Come and ask for my forgiveness!"
After hanging up the phone, Jed felt the "dominant aura" of the reborn person for the first time, and John also smiled behind him: "It's the first time I've seen you so strong. ——You're going to the United States tomorrow Congress testified, because you are the largest shareholder of ABC, you are qualified to explain what makes you sympathetic to the Chinese. I think members of Congress want to hear the opinions of third parties, and you are obviously the best source of opinions. You are an American, you know the whole thing well, which means that your opinion may become the key opinion in the United States Congress."
"Is this your analysis?" Jed asked John, "Are you curious that I want to help the Chinese?"
"That's your personal matter. I believe your mother's lineage is enough to explain everything." John said, "We Italians value mothers very much. Everything left by a mother is what her son must obey in his life. I believe your Mother is a great person, because she left a strong foreign aid for her nation. In fact, I arranged this hearing for you. You can't hide behind. You have to go to the front. You are One of the most famous figures in this country, your opinions can not only influence members of Congress, but also a group of people who regard you as idols and worship objects. And they will eventually affect his constituency, and then affect the United States Your Excellencies. The evidence you brought may be weighty, but the heart is the most important thing. In fact, when I stand in court, I will no longer regard the evidence as important. The key to winning the case It’s about making the jury understand you, sympathize with you, and they will support you in the end. Remember, people’s hearts are the most important thing.”
Looking at John's sincere eyes, Jed finally couldn't help but say, "Thank you!"
"Do you still need to say thank you?" John asked with a smile. "I think I still need to find a public relations company for you. Since you want to lobby the US government, there is no strong public relations company. They will make everyone cry for you and make the American people sympathize with and support you. Washington is the most There is no shortage of such companies, you can go to Ms. Annabeth Scott, I think she should be the most popular publicist in Washington DC now. Although her fee is not cheap, I promise it is worth it."
Jed took Miss Scott's business card from John, and hurriedly flew to Washington on a private jet.In addition to the Gulfstream plane that Jed took himself, the Boeing 777 plane he bought followed.It was because Jed needed too many staff, especially since he was still speculating in Indonesia, so Jed had to fly to Washington with half of the investment department.And importantly, there's a huge technical support department to follow.However, before Jed's departure, there were already staff in Washington DC who had started to set up a venue in the temporary residence.
