Chapter 1191 - Upgrading of the Situation

Fortunately, although the fishermen's fishing boat was damaged and its hull was twisted, it did not sink.

After the launch had rescued all the fishermen, the navy men on the ship secured the fishing boat with steel ropes and dragged it behind the ship to help the fishermen carry it back.

Now that the rescue had been completed, an order to the liberation was given to return.

Ji Feng returned to Jiang Prefecture alone. He didn't even stay in Jiang Prefecture and directly returned to Beijing.

Killing two Vietnamese ships in one breath was a great relief, but the following situation would definitely be very complicated.

Vietnam would definitely not let this go easily. The Chinese side naturally had to be prepared to deal with this.

However, before they parted ways, Ji Feng asked Emanc.i.p.ation, "Chief, the battle has already begun this time. If it's possible, can we start making plans for Island # 1?"

He said to Emanc.i.p.ation, "This is a big matter, let's talk about it later."

Ji Feng wanted the military to defend Island # 1 for him. It was not out of the question, but the question was how Vietnam would react to this incident. This was a top priority.

Moreover, even if the Tengfei Corporation was on the island, how long would the military have to help guard it? This was also a problem.

However, Ji Feng said, "To the Chief, I say that since the war has already begun, then Vietnam will definitely not let this go easily. Rather than waiting for Vietnam to take revenge, we might as well take the initiative.

Ye Zichen shook his head and said, "I can't reply to you right now, but it will be soon. You just wait for the news."

Upon seeing this, Ji Feng could only nod his head in agreement.

He knew that such a big matter wasn't something he could answer immediately, but in his heart, he hoped that the higher-ups would agree.

He was already getting impatient.

He had been looking for a base for development for a long time, but he didn't want to go overseas to find an island as a base. He wanted to find a place in the country where he could use a large enough amount of land to build a base.

Back then, he had even taken Zhang Lei's suggestion to be a whimsical joke.

However, as the empire's technology was placed in front of Ji Feng time and time again, he couldn't help but waver.

More importantly, the dynasty's influence in China was very deep. Ji Feng did not know how many people were related to the dynasty, or even if there was anyone in the Tengfei Corporation that was related to the dynasty, but it was hard to say.

Moreover, there was another reason that was extremely important — — he would have to accelerate his development and bring out more and more technology. If this was in the country, it would be too eye-catching, thus, Ji Feng thought of Zhang Lei's suggestion.

He didn't expect Zhang Lei's prediction to be so accurate. He didn't know if Zhang Lei's prediction was true or not.

But without a doubt, Zhang Lei's proposal was the most suitable choice for the Soaring Sky Corporation.

If one placed the production base in the country, they could set up factories in various places because no matter which island they were on, they would not be able to gather this much labor. It would be unrealistic to let all the workers follow them over, so placing the factories in the country could instead promote employment.

However, the R & D center and headquarters must be moved out!

In the next two days, the situation suddenly changed.

Viet Nam accused China of firing first, sinking their warships and fishing vessels, and showed a set of evidence. One of the evidence was that the Vietnamese warships sent back a signal that they were expelling China's fishing boats, but then the Chinese Navy ships arrived and the two sides were in a confrontation.

Then the Vietnamese ship disappeared.

Therefore, Viet Nam claimed that all kinds of evidence pointed to the Chinese Navy. Therefore, the two ships missing in Viet Nam must have been sunk by the Chinese Navy.

China responded with a t.i.t for tat response -- Take out the evidence!

It couldn't be said that the disappearance of the warship after the confrontation with the Chinese Navy must have been done by them!

On the other hand, China also showed some evidence. These were pictures of Vietnamese warships using high pressure water guns to attack Chinese fishing boats.

In the picture, a fisherman on the fishing boat was thrown into the air. His hands tightly gripped the side of the boat, preventing himself from falling into the sea.

When the photo was released, it immediately aroused the anger of the people.

Everyone knew that for a long time, Chinese fishermen who went out fishing could be attacked and expelled by foreign fishing vessels or warships at any time once they entered the open sea. Even fishermen who were caught were subjected to inhuman treatment.

However, in the past, the country had tried its best not to publicize this matter. It had only protested to outsiders, either urging other countries to punish the culprit harshly or urging them to release the culprit.

Therefore, everyone could only suppress the flames and grumble, but it didn't have much effect.

But this time was different, China had actually released these photos, causing the public to boil over and express their anger in various ways. Some people left angry curses on the internet, while others went directly to the streets to demonstrate, especially the university students, almost all of whom were hot-blooded youths who were the most active in the parade.

In this kind of situation, while China and Viet Nam were arguing, the situation on the other side became more and more tense. Both sides began to a.s.semble their fleets in the Southern Sea Region, and both sides started to mobilize their troops.

Large quant.i.ties of materials were transported to the Southern Sea Region!

At the same time, all the submarines that China was proud of had gone into the water, their whereabouts unknown.

Then came the news that Vietnam began blocking China's ocean-going ships in the southern seas. Both sides even opened fire at once, but because the Chinese fleet arrived in time, they couldn't fight and brought the Chinese cargo ship back safely.

The situation in the Southern Sea Region suddenly escalated, and the entire ocean was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder. If a single spark were to burst into it, it would instantly detonate this barrel of gunpowder.

The tense situation here attracted a lot of attention, especially from countries such as j.a.pan, the Philippines and the United States.

In particular, the j.a.panese and Philippine media were crazily promoting the Chinese threat and comparing their strengths in the Southern Sea Region with that of Vietnam. In the comments, he had deliberately suppressed China's naval strength stats. This was obviously secretly increasing Vietnam's self-confidence.

This was like saying to Viet Nam, look, China only has this little bit of power in the Southern Sea Region, it cannot be compared with you. If they were to fight, China would definitely not be a match for you!

The United States announced that it was paying close attention to the situation in the southern seas, but secretly, a fleet based in Asia began to move quietly. At the same time, China's intelligence agencies were informed that a large amount of weapons and equipment was being shipped from the United States military base in the Philippines to Viet Nam.

The situation became more and more tense. A great battle was imminent.

At that moment, Ji Feng received a call from his father, Ji Zhenhua, asking him to make a trip to Yan Jing.

Ji Feng was not surprised to receive this call. He knew that his father must have realized that the conflict with Vietnam was perhaps due in large part to him.

Ji Feng immediately went to Yan Jing and, according to his father's instructions, went straight to the place where he worked.

Strictly speaking, this was Ji Feng's first time coming to Ji Zhenhua's office.

Although he had been to the same office as Ji Zhenhua before, Ji Zhenhua was still in the other one because he was only a minister then. Now, he was both the princ.i.p.al and the head of the central government.

"Was it you who caused this incident?" Sure enough, Ji Zhenhua's first sentence was about the situation in the Southern Sea Region.

"It wasn't caused by me alone, so the culprit should be the Vietnamese. If they didn't attack us Chinese fishermen, then there wouldn't have been such a thing!" Ji Feng said.

"You!"

Ji Zhenhua nodded at him and said, "I've heard about the process. Although it was a bit impulsive, his performance was not bad."

Hm?

Ji Feng was taken aback. When he saw the smile on his father's face, he finally understood that his father did not come to settle the score with him, but had even praised him!

But after some thought, Ji Feng understood.

In fact, when it comes to China's weakness, it's not that the leaders are truly afraid of foreigners, but rather, considering the overall situation, they can only tolerate it at times. However, this is a game between nations, when facing a foreign warship that insults a Chinese fisherman, they believe that no leader will cower!

"Dad, that war with Vietnam..."

"China has the ability to protect its citizens!" Ji Zhenhua waved his hand. "This has nothing to do with anything else."

Ji Feng chuckled, his words seemed to raise the spirits of the crowd!

Ji Zhenhua looked at him and suddenly asked, "You plan to move the Tengfei Corporation's headquarters? And he took a fancy to Island # 1? "

"Told you?" Ji Feng asked.

"It's such a big matter, so naturally, you would ask for my opinion from the chief." Ji Zhenhua said, "But you, what exactly do you think? Isn't Tengfei Group developing very well in Jiangzhou? "

Ji Feng shook his head and replied, "In the country, there are some matters that have too many restrictions and can't be let go."

Ji Zhenhua frowned. "What else do you have that you can't let go of?"

What else?

That's too much!

Ji Feng said, "Dad, although Tengfei Group seems to have already become a multinational corporation, in reality, it is only just the beginning. According to my a.s.sumption, when Tengfei Group becomes a truly international corporation, it will be considered a true rise."

Ji Zhenhua asked, "What does this have to do with where the Soaring Group is?"
