The rise of a great power: starting with military industry

Chapter 981 Win-win cooperation
When Seres talked about fishing, Liu Tao didn't feel embarrassed at all.

The Far East Fisheries Group catches 18 tons of fish in Somali waters every year, bringing abundant seafood to China's tables.

The Far East Fisheries Group has an annual catch of 180 million tons, of which the Somali waters alone account for 10%.

The consumption of seafood in China is increasing along with the growth of the country's affluent middle class. Currently, the national output of marine products in China has reached 3300 million tons.

In addition to marine aquaculture in coastal areas, 45.45% of China's marine products come from marine catch, which is about 1500 million tons per year.

It is estimated that in the next 10 years or so, China's marine product output will reach 5000 million tons.

All walks of life in China are developing, and the seafood product processing industry is also developing continuously. Driven by the market, processed and semi-processed products are constantly moving forward.

As the domestic living standards continue to improve, people have higher requirements for seafood. Natural, nutritious, convenient, delicious and fresh seafood is gradually becoming fashionable.

The Far East Fisheries Group is mainly engaged in marine fishing, especially deep-water fishing. A large amount of high-quality seafood is supplied by the Far East Fisheries Group.

Liu Tao agreed to help Somalia and also gave Seres some advice.

For example, if more food could be planted, Somalia's arable land is 820 million hectares, or 1.23 million acres, which should be enough to feed tens of millions of people. However, Somalia has been unable to be self-sufficient in food for a long time.

With grain in hand, don't panic in my heart.

This is a very simple yet profound truth. Only when there is enough food can society be stable. After all, human nature is universal and no one will rebel for no reason or make a fool of themselves.

However, many countries have been fooled into growing cash crops such as cotton, and then the food produced in their own country is not enough for food. Whenever there is a disturbance, the price of grain will skyrocket, and if the country is not a grain-producing country, the entire country will be shaken.

As for how much Seres could hear, Liu Tao didn't care.

Once the cooperation begins, many things cannot be terminated just because SERES wants to.

Because a huge interest group has been formed, a powerful interest group.

Those who want to break the existing order and take actions to subvert the order are truly heaven-sent tough guys, and they are extremely rare.

Ceres is a tough guy sent from heaven to Somalia, but Liu Tao doesn't believe that he will subvert the situation in the future.

Somalia is now in a state of disrepair and needs to be rebuilt on the ruins. Efforts must be made in all aspects. This is not just about economic development, it is not enough to just build a few roads, railways, and ports and docks. Schools must be built, including kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools, and universities. Hospitals must be built and a medical system must be established. In addition, there is also the construction of various systems, the construction of government unit systems, and so on.

There's a lot to invest in here.
Here, there is plenty of space to do this.

Panshan Group is now forming an advisory group to help Somalia make national plans.

……

Stability is the prerequisite for development. Without stability, there can be no development. Somalia, which has been through a long war, has experienced this most deeply.

When Liu Tao negotiates cooperation with Celis, he will not squeeze the blood out of the Somali government like a capitalist. Instead, he will gradually dilute his shares according to the length of time and gradually transfer them to the Somali government to avoid conflicts between the two sides one day.

After all, interests always move people's hearts.

Somalia will not have so many considerations now. After all, Somalia is in ruins and is extremely poor. As long as it can get help, it will probably agree to any conditions.

However, as Somalia develops, it begins to become dissatisfied with the original cooperation, and this is the conflict between the two sides.

Liu Tao still attaches great importance to Somalia. After all, it is related to the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea. At the same time, the unification of Somalia has enabled Panshan Group to form a complete piece in Africa without any obvious loopholes.

Tanzania, Djibouti, Kenya, Ethiopia, Congo, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Namibia, Guinea, Senegal, Zambia, Egypt, Libya and Somalia, this is the basic base.

Panshan Group has established a firm foothold in these places, made steady progress, and then conquered other places to gradually expand the market.

Nearing 12 o'clock in the evening, Liu Tao personally escorted Celis and other members of the delegation to the Kowloon Railway Station, where a train had already been arranged for them.

At 12 o'clock sharp, the train departed on time.

Liu Tao watched the train leave before leaving the train station.

After returning to the hotel suite and taking a shower, Liu Tao turned on the TV and tuned to the Hong Kong Satellite TV News Channel.

Now Hong Kong Satellite TV not only covers the whole country, but also covers the entire Southeast Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Latin America. Even in North America and Europe, you can watch it if you want.

As the only channel that can provide first-hand news from Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, Hong Kong TV News Channel is watched by many people.

Feature reporting is ongoing at this time.

What appeared in the camera were beacon fires, cannon fires, and gunshots. Ordinary people were conscripted by the government army, and if they resisted, they would be beaten or even shot by government soldiers.

The ugly image of these government forces has been fully displayed to the whole world.

There will also be white people in Europe and the United States who, in interviews, will accuse the mobs of brutality and the government forces of dictatorship, and call on people all over the world to oppose and sanction the government forces.

The riots came so quickly and violently that everyone was caught off guard. White people in Europe and America also suffered great losses in these places, and even white women were violated or even killed.

This kind of news always appears in Europe and the United States, making it difficult for European and American countries to support government forces because there is no public opinion basis.
