Chapter 802 Who is lying

  In the cabin of the mother ship of the Jiaolong deep-diving lifeboat, Peter and his rescued men were lying on the bed, but they could not fall asleep.

As long as they close their eyes, the scene at that time will appear. Even if they are asleep, they can still dream that the submarine was crushed and exploded under the huge water pressure, and they all turned into meat paste. panting heavily.

  Peter's eyes were bloodshot, and he knew that he needed a psychiatrist now.

   "Mr. Peter, please come out." Someone greeted him at the door.

   "Why, what's the matter?" Peter asked, "Is the person who picked us up?"

   "Not yet. There is one other thing, I think I need to tell you in advance."

  Peter nodded, followed the man to a room in the cabin, and watched a scene appear on the screen inside.

   "I declare publicly that this man named Peter is not our captain! He has nothing to do with the Farncombe, he is a lunatic!"

   "Your Excellency Tim? Why did he say that?" Peter's heart suddenly turned cold.

   They had just experienced life and death underwater, and they are still having nightmares. Maybe it will become a nightmare for the rest of their lives. His superior actually announced publicly that he is not the captain?

  What happened?

  They were on the boat, and the news was blocked. Zhang Zhong said that he had never seen the show at all, and the information he got now was all processed!

   "This time, more than a dozen of you came up, but there are also about 20 people who didn't come up. Among these people, are there any people with identities and backgrounds?"

After getting this reminder, Peter immediately reacted: "That's right, there is an intern officer on our submarine. His family is well-known. He came to our submarine just for gold plating. After returning, he will be in the naval headquarters. He was promoted there, at the beginning, Kewell specifically told me to take special care of him, **** it, I forgot about him!"

The situation at that time was too dangerous, and he could die at any time. At that time, how could he care so much? He had a gun in his hand, so he could get on the lifeboat. The man was in the command tower, he was not familiar with submarines, and he couldn't run fast, so he definitely didn't squeeze in!

   Now, these people actually retaliated. When they learned that they were safe and their relatives did not come up, they actually stabbed a knife at this critical moment and denied everything about themselves!

  Thinking that he almost died inside, Peter was extremely angry.

   "Now, I'm afraid you won't be able to go back. If you don't dislike it, you can stay in our east and apply for political asylum in the future. We will protect you."

Looking at the ugly face of the man on the screen, Peter gritted his teeth: "No, I absolutely can't admit defeat like this! I have some documents in the bank safe near the Sydney Opera House. Those documents can prove my identity. I want to tell All over the world, I am the captain of the Farncombe! Please help me get those materials back! Also, the sailors around me will also testify for me, by the way, I request to be on Zhang Zhongshuo's program!"

  In order to retaliate, these people actually erased Peter's credit. If Peter hadn't commanded it properly, none of them would be able to come back. Did any of the submarines that hit the sea cliff come back?

   One day later.

"Hello, everyone, welcome to our Zhang Zhong said special program, today's program is extra, because our last program was cracked down, so now, let's explain in detail, now, please Our special guest, Mr. Peter, meets you."

The camera turned to Peter, and Peter's face was extremely serious: "I swear on my life and honor, I am Peter, the captain of the Collins-class submarine Farncombe, and I still have a lot of evidence in my hand, the first thing I showed It’s my photo, the first photo, when everyone took a group photo when receiving the submarine.”

   As he spoke, Peter took out his first photo. On it, Peter was wearing the uniform of a senior naval officer, and he looked so ambitious.

   "The next thing is the photo of me commanding the submarine to go to sea for the first time in the submarine. At that time, Lord Tim and I were on the same submarine. This is our group photo."

"Let me add a word. All of our photos will be posted on the website of our Zhang Zhongshuo program for everyone to browse. If the photos are forged, it is easy to find clues. I, Zhang Zhong, can guarantee that these photos It's all true."

  A dozen or so photos were released. Peter introduced in detail the scene when each photo was taken. The last photo is of his family.

"I want to say that I miss my family, my old mother, my wife, and my children, but now, I am accused of being a liar by them. If I go back, I will probably be directly accused by them. Grab it, so now I have a home and can't go back, I can only stay here and miss my family, we can only use the screen..."

Speaking of this, Peter was already in tears. In fact, as a soldier, he has long been used to being calm, and as a submarine commander, he must be calm. However, there are rules for going on TV. Zhang Zhong specifically asked him to talk about family At the time, it must be sensational, but now, thinking of his family and the treatment he received from not working, Peter lost control of his emotions in an instant.

  The tearful scene is really good, Zhang Zhong on the side is very excited, he knows he has succeeded.

  South Pacific, a certain country.

  Tim looked at Peter crying on the TV, and his face was extremely ugly: "Damn it, he is going to drag everyone into hell! He is a damned guy who is clearly being used by the Easterners, but he doesn't know it!"

   "What should we do now?" Kewell was a little worried: "Anyone who sees this scene will probably be moved by him. By then, we will be in big trouble."

"Yeah, this is really a big trouble. There's nothing we can do now. Get all the rescued sailors back from the Easterners as soon as possible. We'll hold a grand welcome trial, and then select one with the highest military rank. As the captain." Tim said: "Only in this way can it be offset..."

  Before he finished speaking, Tim's expression changed again.

  There are other people in the studio!

   "The ones just now are physical evidence, and the next is personal evidence. Everyone, next to me is my colleague, Yuri, the first mate of the Farncombe. He will prove what I said."

"Yes, I swear on my military honor, Peter is the captain of our Farncombe, all our rescued crew can attest to that, Sir Tim doesn't know why, lying to the public, people like him , is no longer worthy to be our officer, he should resign and he should be punished accordingly! What is Sir Tim doing while we are struggling underwater? Is he drinking cocktails and discussing with others how to make this matter Things have the least impact! When we are struggling on the verge of death, what is Sir Tim doing? Is he thinking about how to reduce or even stop our pension?"

  After the broadcast of this TV program, the world became a sensation again.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Tim was lying. In order to please his master, he even dared to blatantly deny the captain who had just escaped from death after being rescued. His behavior is really disgusting. !

   Now, with so many facts and witnesses, it can of course prove that Tim is a clown.

   Soon, some reporters came to Peter's house and found the relatives in Peter's photo. The crying scene of relatives appeared on TV and newspapers again. Paper cannot contain fire!

Public opinion quickly began to ferment. Just when the storm was approaching, Kewell hurried to Shuangsha Island. As the person who stirred up the storm with his own hands, Qin Tao was still on vacation at Shuangsha Island. , this time is really comfortable.

   "Boss Qin, I want to protest to you! You actually use our people to do such despicable things!" Kewell couldn't hide his anger, and roared at Qin Tao.

"Mr. Kewell, don't you know who is despicable?" Qin Tao said, "Who commanded your submarine to sail towards the hell-like seawater cliff, and didn't go to rescue afterwards? Who braved the seawater The danger of the cliff rescued more than a dozen of your crew, including the captain? Why don’t you distinguish between good and bad? It seems that we have to repeat the story of the farmer and the snake.”

"That's right, you rescued our people, but we paid for it! After you rescued our people, you used them to do so many despicable things!" Kewell was still very angry. anger.

"Spending money? In this world, can you do anything if you have money? You spend money to invite Americans to see if the Americans will help you salvage the submarine?" Qin Tao said: "Our Mingzhou Group You have a big family and a big business, and you still value your rescue expenses? We are helping you with the spirit of internationalism. In your eyes, this has become a matter of course! If this is the case, then there is no need for us to talk , Secretary Xu, see off the guests!"

   "Yes." Xu Zhengyang walked up to Kewell: "Mr. Kewell, you can go."

   "I can't go yet, I still have things to do, Mr. Qin, those crew members you rescued are from our country, now, please hand them over to us to take them away."

"People from your country?" Qin Tao had a sneer on his face: "Do you admit it? In your mouth, aren't those people we recruited to deceive the whole world? Isn't all this a trick by us? You don't care about those people's life and death, and now you want someone again?"

  Kewell was speechless for a while, this eating is too ugly! They put themselves together, and now they are speaking with confidence!

   "President Qin, you can't do this! You detain our people without reason, which is against international law!"

"Is it yours? Do you admit it?" Qin Tao said: "As long as you admit that you are yours and give them fair treatment and promise not to embarrass them, we can ask these people for their opinions. If they are willing to go back, let’s release them, if they are not willing to go back, then we will do a good job to the end and help them find a new life.”

   "Boss Qin, you!" Kewell was extremely angry, but now, he didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Kewell, I have already put my words very tactfully. If we want to talk about international law, these people sneaked into our territorial waters. This is considered an illegal intrusion. It is normal for us to arrest and sentence them. Of course, We won't do that, after all, these people are pitiful enough, we just respect their choices, isn't that wrong? Don't you place the most importance on this?"

  When the salvage was carried out, the signing of the agreement clearly stated that the other party strayed into the territorial waters of the East by mistake. Now, it is too late for them to repent.

  If Kewell was given a chance to choose again, he would rather let all these people die than cooperate with Mingzhou Group. The other party is too insidious!

  Kewell's face was blue and white for a while, and finally he stood up: "Mr. Qin, you are the most sinister, despicable and cunning person I have ever seen!"

   "Seeing off the guests!" Qin Tao said, I don't care about you, if another person comes over, I won't beat him up! I know you are dead son unhappy, I understand.

  Kewell left Shuangsha Island and hurried back again. When he saw Tim, Tim's face was equally bleak.

   "Your Excellency Tim, I'm very sorry, I can't complete the task, that President Qin is too shameless!"

   "Yeah, he is too shameless, we have all been tricked, and now, things are irreparable." Tim said, and began to pack his things.

   "Your Excellency Tim, what is this?"

"I had to resign, and all the responsibilities were thrown on my head." Tim said: "However, for me, this is also a relief. Those of you who stay, it is still a task." It’s tough, I’ll leave it to you to clean up the mess.”

  The public already knew the truth and hated what Tim said. Now, Tim has to be thrown out to appease the anger. Someone has to take responsibility for it.

Tim took the blame and resigned, and received countless blank stares. Fortunately, he was more sensible and left quietly, avoiding those reporters, rotten eggs and rotten vegetables. However, those who stay will be in trouble , they have trickier things to do.

  What to do next?

   "In order to give the public an explanation, we must organize as soon as possible to salvage the sunken submarine." After Tim left, Michael took over his task. He knew that this matter had to be dealt with as soon as possible. After all, the impact was too bad. If he couldn't do anything meaningful, he might repeat the same mistakes.

  Now, the people are waiting for those submarine soldiers to come back, even if they are bones, they must be brought back.

   So, next comes salvage.

"At present, our country does not have the ability to salvage submarines at a depth of 3,000 meters." An adjutant said, "Even looking around the world, there are no more than five countries capable of salvage submarines. not enough."

   "Can the United States salvage it?" Michael said.

  Once they encounter something, the first thing they think of is still the United States.

"The Americans refused to salvage us. They said that in this incident, we played a disgraceful role and damaged the reputation of the US Navy. Therefore, they will not help salvage, but they will provide us with a Millions of salvage funds."

   "One million? What is one million enough for? Orientals help us save lives. One person is worth two million!" Someone complained.

   "Yeah, we have been following their buttocks, and this is how we are treated in the end! We shouldn't get too close to the Americans!" Finally, someone made this complaint.

   "Damn, now is not the time to discuss this kind of issue. What we are going to discuss now is salvage submarines." Michael said: "Which other countries can salvage?"

"Da Mao also has the ability to salvage. After all, they have salvage experience with Oscar-class nuclear submarines. However, the place where this nuclear submarine sank was too shallow at that time, so it cannot be compared. Next is Europe. In Europe, Germany and Norway have salvage capabilities. "

   "Then what are you waiting for, invite them to come over." Michael said, "Even if you invite them to jointly salvage, that's fine."

   "One of them quoted 300 million, and the other quoted 280 million."

   "What? At a time like this, can't they help us?" Michael was annoyed, and they really opened their mouths.

"The sea area there is too complicated. Now the whole world knows that there are seawater cliffs there. They need to pay enough insurance for the ships and personnel." One of the men said: "That's it, they still can't guarantee that they can salvage the submarine. , it’s just that if they want to come, they have to spend so much money.”

   "It seems that Mingzhou Group's quotation is the cheapest. They only need 100 million yuan. If only we had asked them to salvage it!"

   "Well, what is good, all this is a conspiracy of the Mingzhou Group. The worst choice we made was to cooperate with the Mingzhou Group!"

"Invite the 280 million yuan over here and ask them to help salvage. As for the funding, we can raise funds from various sources, including soliciting donations from the society." Michael said: "Now, the most important thing for us is to get the submarine Salvage it, and give an explanation to the people! Everyone, if this matter is not done well, then I will step down too. I am very selfish, and if I go down, many people will definitely go down with us!"

The order soon floated to Norway. The Norwegian BOA Shipping and Rescue Company was very excited and sent their advanced salvage equipment: two floating cranes "Gulliver" and "Lambitz". These two ships must be able to salvage the wrecked submarine.

  At the same time, Sollot, the salvage project leader of the BOA company, led his professional team and flew directly to the employer's country, where he met Michael and others who were eagerly waiting for them.

   "Please rest assured that our company is professional. Now, we are making a salvage plan. The first step is that we need to know where the submarine sank." Sollot said.

   "Isn't it the task of your salvage company to determine the location of the sunken ship?"

"That's right, it's our mission, but it will cost extra money, and it will delay time. Since you have rescued a group of sailors, you must also know the exact location of the sinking submarine. Tell us directly. , Isn't this good for both of us?" Sollot was very curious, we are helping you save money.

  Michael and others were dumbfounded.

  They only know the approximate location, as for the specific location, how would they know! Only the Mingzhou Group responsible for salvage knows that now that they are deadlocked, if they ask for information from the Mingzhou Group, will the other party give it?

  Yes, I just need money!

  They were very anxious about the rescue work, so the contract was signed so hastily that they ignored these details. Now, they feel like they have been cheated.

"The first step in salvaging a submarine is to determine the location of the submarine. If we don't know, then we can't salvage it. If the time is delayed, it is caused by you and has nothing to do with us." Sollot saw that the other party was silent , Immediately began to cast aside responsibility.

   "Well, let's talk about the next salvage first."

"Considering that the depth of the wrecked submarine is too deep, we can't send divers down, but we can only send diving robots. We plan to use diving robots to help us hook the various positions of the submarine with slings, and then use two floating cranes to jointly , to salvage the submarine, we have calculated that it should be no problem to salvage a 3,000-ton submarine."

   "Well, we recognize your professionalism very much. What about after the salvage?"

   "After that? Of course you hired a semi-submersible ship to transport the salvaged submarine away."

   "We hire?"

"Yes, in our contract, we are only responsible for salvage, not transportation. Our company also has a semi-submersible ship that can perform transportation tasks. If you need it, we can also call the semi-submersible ship. However, $50 million in additional costs."

  Semi-submersible boats don’t open for half a year, and they don’t open for half a year. It’s so easy to have such an opportunity.

  Michael and the others were so shocked that their jaws dropped.

   I was cheated, I was cheated by these people! This salvage may require an additional 100 million yuan. Does their country have so much money?

   While everyone was fighting over the cost of salvage, Qin Tao was basking in the sun on the beach of Shuangsha Island, drinking iced coconut juice, with a relaxed expression on his face.

   "Brother Tao, are you not afraid that the salvage business will be robbed by others?" Zhao Ling was a little worried at the side: "This is a project we have arranged for a long time, and now it is cheaper for others."

   "How is that possible? They have to beg me in the end." Qin Tao said: "Face is nothing compared to money."

  Qin Tao rarely uttered a dirty word, but Zhao Ling didn't care, she was still thinking about Qin Tao's words, what did they mean? Could it be that this Norwegian salvage team is unreliable and will open its mouth like a lion?

   "President Qin, just received the news that our Jiaolong has salvaged all the torpedoes and anti-ship missiles scattered on the seabed." At this moment, Xu Zhengyang came over and said to Qin Tao.

   "Well, those things scattered in our sea area are factors of instability. We can only salvage them to ensure safety. However, these are trivial matters, so we won't ask them for salvage costs, and we will calculate together later."

   Count together?

  The other party has to obediently come to your side?
