Chapter 104 Libya Has No Young Masters
After assuming the role of acting president, Soumya will make eradicating disease and poverty the top priority for the Guinean government.
Poverty is one of the main causes of terrorism.
The Simandou iron ore mine and its associated projects alone can provide more than 150,000 jobs in Guinea, benefiting more than one-tenth of Guinean families and covering nearly one million people.
In addition to aluminum and iron ore, Guinea plans to develop irrigation systems, reclaim land, and increase its focus on livestock and fisheries, aiming to initially address Guinea's hunger problem within five years.
Guinea has fertile soil, abundant rainfall, and numerous rivers, making it ideal for agricultural development. The country has approximately 630 million hectares of arable land available for development, of which less than a quarter has already been developed.
With such favorable conditions, Guinea is unable to even be self-sufficient in food. More than 10 percent of the population is struggling below the hunger line, and nearly one-third of the children suffer from varying degrees of malnutrition. It's utterly ridiculous.
Compared to counterterrorism, what Qin Rui truly values is military exchange and cooperation with Guinea.
Since France has sent troops into Chad under the guise of counter-terrorism, it has openly become involved in the war between Chad and Libya.
If war breaks out between Guinea and France, Libya could also send troops to Guinea under the pretext of "counter-terrorism" to assist the Guinean army in its operations.
Qin Rui really wanted to see just how much of France's capricious status remained after losing the help of the United States and NATO.
France acted swiftly; on the 15th, Guinea and France reached an agreement, and on the 16th, four military transport planes arrived in N'Djamena.
At this point, the Libyan vanguard was less than 100 kilometers away from N'Djamena.
Musa was cautious and ordered his troops to halt the offensive and construct defensive lines on the spot to guard against a possible counterattack by the Chad army.
Saddam Hussein issued a mobilization order, deciding to expand the size of the Libyan army from 4 to 6.
Musa approached Qin Rui, hoping that Qin Rui could exchange a batch of professional officers from the system.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Rui increased the number of professional officers to 100, leaving the rest for Musa to figure out himself.
Compared to military officers, Qin Rui preferred to exchange for research personnel through the system.
Compared to researchers who can be exchanged for jobs, Qin Rui prefers to spend money to recruit researchers from abroad.
As the number of users of "Tree Hole" rapidly increases, more and more people are learning about the real situation in Libya, and more and more people are willing to work in Libya.
Due to the long-term demonization of Libya by Western countries, the image of Libya as a "state terrorist" is deeply ingrained in people's minds. When many people think of Libya, they subconsciously associate Libyans with terrorists who are armed with AKs, strapped with explosives, and ready to detonate at the slightest provocation.
In the videos of the "tree hole" influencer, Libya is portrayed as positive, open, and inclusive. It is home not only to Arabs and Berbers, but also to East Asians and Europeans. People work with them, chat and joke around, and have dinner together after get off work, with exceptionally harmonious relationships.
What young people in Europe and America particularly envy is Libya's comprehensive welfare system.
The welfare system in Western countries is not as good as the media portrays it, especially for young people without connections. In Western countries where class stratification is severe, there is almost no hope.
The young, talented entrepreneurs in Europe and America that the media talks about are not self-made. They not only have powerful backgrounds, but also have connections in both the legitimate and underworld sectors, taking full advantage of favorable timing and circumstances, which is why they are able to create one business miracle after another.
Libya has no genius entrepreneurs.
Based on Libya's welfare system, the influential figures on the "Tree Hole" platform have strived to portray Libya as the most friendly country to ordinary people, especially young people. Among young users, Libya is becoming increasingly attractive.
In France, a woman only receives a few hundred euros for each child she has.
Libyans give $30,000 as a wedding gift.
Housing, cars, education, healthcare, and other pain points that young people in Europe and America cannot solve are almost readily available in Libya.
The internet is becoming a reality: during the day, passenger ships arriving at the port of Tripoli are full of young people who have come to Libya seeking opportunities.
The smuggling boats departing at night are also full of young people yearning for a new life.
The war did not affect the construction in Libya. While Libya was engaged in large-scale construction, it also introduced many preferential policies for entrepreneurs. Charles's "Banana" company became one of the first beneficiaries.
Following the exposure of the Libyan drone in Benghazi, the relationship between Banana Culture and Libya was also revealed, drawing the attention of the US government.
Charles was more wronged than Dou E; he had no idea about the relationship between "Goldfinger" and Libya, let alone that Libya had successfully developed combat drones based on "Banana" company's technology.
This is not over yet.
An investigation by the U.S. government revealed that the precision-guided bombs used by Libya in Benghazi also incorporated some technology from Bananas.
As a result, Charles and his friends were subjected to a full investigation by the U.S. government that lasted for nine months.
Last month, the U.S. government lifted its surveillance on Charles.
The reason for lifting surveillance was that "Banana" Company's technology was no longer forward-thinking and had become just another ordinary company.
After the U.S. government lifted its surveillance on Charles, he traveled to Libya via Italy.
Gabriel, co-founder of the "Banana" company, arrived in Tripoli earlier than Charles.
"Dude, I'm so glad you're still alive. Welcome to the land of the free!"
Gabriel arrived at the port in a Hummer to greet Charles.
"Wow, buddy, looks like you're doing pretty well here!"
Before leaving the United States, Charles sold his eight-times-used Toyota.
"These things are common in Libya; street cleaners drive Humvees."
Gabriel threw Charles's backpack into the car and then opened the car door for Charles.
Charles didn't rush into the car, but frowned slightly as he looked at the cameras everywhere.
It seems that Boboci's statement that the Libyan government is closely monitoring Libyans is true.
"Don't worry about that. These cameras are for our protection, not for surveillance."
Gabriel got on the bus and casually explained.
"Doesn't this violate people's right to privacy?"
Charles recalled that when Gabriel was in the United States, he had participated in a march against the government's violation of citizens' privacy rights.
"These surveillance devices are only installed in public areas, and there are no cameras in your bedroom, so what's there to worry about?"
Gabriel adapted to his environment very quickly.
Charles got into the car, no longer hesitating.
Since we cannot change the environment, we must find ways to adapt to it.
Charles was greatly surprised as the Hummer drove along the wide, smooth road, which was lined with green belts of shrubs and flowers on both sides, and with roadside trees planted between the non-motorized vehicles and the sidewalks.
In Charles's mind, Libya is located in a desert region where plants and water are very precious.
Before arriving in Tripoli, Charles had prepared himself for difficulties.
However, Tripoli, as it appeared to Charles, surpassed Cambridge in terms of transportation infrastructure and green spaces.
Gabriel intended to show Charles around Tripoli. The Hummer left the port and entered Omar Square, heading towards the business center along the seaside promenade.
When they passed the second intersection, Charles saw the Pang Donglai Supermarket on the side of the road and asked Gabriel to stop so he could go in and see if the service at Pang Donglai Supermarket was really as good as described in the "tree hole".
"The coffee at this supermarket isn't good. The East City supermarket in the business center has the best coffee in all of Tripoli. But we don't need to go to the supermarket for a cup of coffee. Just one phone call and the supermarket will deliver it to our door."
Gabriel's description is even more exaggerated than "tree hole".
"Online Supermarket" is a service recently launched by Pang Donglai. With just a smartphone, you can enjoy Pang Donglai's services anytime, anywhere.
The business center is located next to the seaside boulevard, facing the boundless Mediterranean Sea. The "Banana" company is located on the 9th floor of Building A, with an area of over 400 square meters.
The entire business center consists of six office buildings, each with 12 floors, which can accommodate hundreds of companies.
While the companies that have already moved into the business center are mainly startups, there are also large, well-established companies, such as Sahara Technology Co., Ltd., which made a name for itself in the Battle of Benghazi.
The drones and precision-guided bombs used by Libya in Benghazi were all manufactured by Sahara Technologies.
"Before coming to Tripoli, I thought that with our skills, we could make a big splash in Tripoli;
I only realized after I arrived that although the companies here are not large in scale, their strength is astonishing.
Compared to Sahara Technology Co., Ltd., our progress is far behind. We must find a new breakthrough to secure orders from the Libyan military.
Gabriel lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and the car was instantly filled with smoke.
Charles rolled down the car window and looked at Gabriel with a hint of worry in his eyes.
Gabriel doesn't smoke; he smokes contraband, which is prohibited in Libya.
Libya has a very firm stance on drugs; whether it is trafficking or harboring others to use them, it will be severely punished by law.
As for enticement, instigation, and deception, these are considered the same crimes as trafficking in Libya, and can be punishable by death.
"I've quit, and now I'm using this as a substitute."
X
Gabriel's abstinence was not thorough enough.
How did the Libyan government manage to both ban and condone it?
Charles was completely baffled.
In Bobo's propaganda, Libya's attitude toward smuggling is akin to "state terrorism."
"Don't believe Boboci's slander. The Libyan government has a very firm stance on drugs. Whether it's using or selling drugs, it's a serious crime in Libya. If we violate the relevant regulations, we will be deported after being held legally accountable."
Gabriel had to give up his hobbies in order to pursue his ideals.
Charles's goodwill towards the Libyan government immediately increased.
