Chapter 1071 "Gust of Wind"
Newsroom, Press Trust of India, New Delhi, India.
As a high-caste Caucasian, editor-in-chief Narayan has a very outstanding refined temperament. When he walks into the building where the editor-in-chief's office is located with his head held high, servants of low castes will kneel behind him and wipe the floor to ensure that it is as bright as a mirror.
In response to Modi's policy of boosting India's economy and manufacturing industry, editor-in-chief Narayan has been providing rich spiritual food for India's 100 million citizens. Especially after Modi revises the way India's GDP is counted, people cheer for the coming of the era of India.
"Our 104-star report should go deeper, which is very helpful for boosting national confidence."
"The research on the anti-cancer of cow urine needs to be followed up. This will be a discovery that shocks the world."
"And our country's pride, the Vikrant aircraft carrier. What... is it launching again?"
Your Excellency the editor-in-chief must determine the focus and direction of some reports every day, and work hard to establish the image of the country and the confidence of the people. These things include all aspects of politics, economy, culture, and military affairs.
Well..., the military is one of them.
Not long ago, India and France reached an agreement to purchase 36 Rafale fighter jets. The total amount of this contract may exceed 10 billion US dollars, which can be called a rare large order.
For India, these French fighters are the result of a long-standing medium fighter replacement plan. This plan has been plagued by disasters since it was proposed fifteen or sixteen years ago.
At first, the third brother wanted to get a batch of new fighters to replace the MiG-21. At that time, his goal was to fight against the new J-10 launched by the rabbit family. Then toss and toss, the stories in it are enough to write a book. But waiting for the Rabbit's J-20 to come out to dominate the blue sky, this deal has not been finalized yet.
In the end, the third brother couldn't take it anymore, so he just bought French products. Although it costs a lot of money, it is still good to be a French product. It has always been known for its high quality in the international arms market. Compared with the deceitful hairy products and the deceitful Indian domestic products, the Gallic chicken is still good!
"Is there any special military news today?" The editor-in-chief asked, he felt that he lacked a sufficient military report on hand.
The secretary hesitated, and said with some embarrassment: "The Ministry of National Defense is conducting a MK2 plan assessment for the 'Arjun' tank. Is this okay?"
"No, no." The editor-in-chief frowned when he heard the word 'Arjun'.
"Tejas fighter jet,..." the secretary mentioned another word.
"No, no." The editor-in-chief waved his hand when he heard 'Glorious'.
"The nuclear submarine 'Anihilator',..." The secretary mentioned another word.
"Okay, let's not mention these depressing things. Give me some exciting news, such as something related to 'Gust'." The editor-in-chief gave a hint, and he picked up a piece of paper from his desktop Large 'Gust' poster. "I want news of this kind."
A beautiful fighter is a good fighter. In terms of appearance, the French have reached the pinnacle of three and a half generations of fighter jets in the design of the Rafale. From all aspects, the 'Rafale' is already the best - just don't compare it with the fourth-generation aircraft.
"Ah...!" Seeing 'Gust', the troubled secretary immediately burst into smiles, "There is a news about 'Gust', but it's just lace news. We just received a satellite message from an Indian captain Photo, he said he saw a 'Rafale' during the voyage."
"What do you mean?" The editor-in-chief didn't understand.
"A captain found a large cargo ship parked in the sea while passing the Miyako Strait. He thought the cargo ship needed help and approached it, only to find a 'Rafale' fighter jet parked on the deck of the cargo ship."
Hearing this description, the editor-in-chief's face became extremely serious. He asked: "Is there a Rafale parked on the deck of a cargo ship in the Miyako Strait?"
"Yes, there are photos. But we are not sure if it is a model, after all, the news is too unbelievable. So..." The secretary explained with some embarrassment.
The editor-in-chief asked anxiously, "Show me the photos right away."
The electronic version of the photos arrived in the editor-in-chief's mailbox very quickly. The photos themselves are very clear and high-resolution. After zooming in, you can clearly see various details.
"Damn it, it's not a model. Look at the details of the landing gear, the cockpit, and the air intake. It's clearly a real 'Rafale' fighter." He knew immediately that this was big news.
"Tell me, have you checked the registry and recent sailing location of this cargo ship?" The editor-in-chief felt his heart beating faster, and he thought of the current location of the ship - the Miyako Strait. This is not a good place.
"This is a Panamanian-flagged freighter, which left China for the Philippines a week ago, stayed in the Philippines overnight, left and returned to China.
We have contacted the Manila Port Authority in the Philippines. It seems that the ship has changed several batches of crew members in a short period of time. No one knows what is on board the ship? Not sure who the owner is? "
This is obviously a ghost!
Hearing the secretary's explanation, the editor-in-chief stood up angrily and cursed: "Damn French, they just said they would sell us the 'Rafale', but now they are sending the 'Rafale' to please the Chinese. This is against us in India I want to expose the despicable deeds of these liars.
What is even more damning is those Chinese, who have never given up threatening our national security, and now want to spy on the secrets of our most advanced fighter jets. We should protest, protest their hooliganism!
I'm going to sue the Department of Defense, those bureaucrats know how to waste taxpayer money. They might have known about such an act of blatantly transporting 'Gust', but they didn't care. Those moths, we should hang them all. "
The editor-in-chief slammed the table violently, and a sense of justice to unravel the mystery and expose the truth arose spontaneously in the small office. Even the secretary straightened his back and decided to fight to the end to defend India's interests.
So more than ten minutes later, this explosive news was released, and it immediately occupied the headlines of various social media in India-the despicable France betrayed our core interests in India to the enemy, and we strongly protest!
This title is so eye-catching! FB, Twitter and other online media immediately spread the news that this involved three countries and two big hooligans were involved all over the world, and countless people were paying attention for a while.
Ah San's Ministry of National Defense immediately jumped up and scolded the Frenchman—you bunch of unscrupulous people, you used our money to change hands and betrayed us. Won't your conscience ache? !
The French looked dumbfounded - we didn't do anything! We are not stupid, even if we want to do it, we will not do it like this?
Chinese netizens also joined in the fun -- whoops! This is strange, the Indian Rafale has not yet arrived, and the French sent us one first.
The spokesperson of the Chinese government said that this matter needs further investigation, please calm down. We have sent Marine Police officers to the scene.
Only Zhou Qingfeng was crying on the satellite phone—uncle policeman, are you coming or not? I have been waiting for a long time, when will I be allowed to last?
The uncle of the police said——Comrade, hold on a little longer. We are entangled with the forces of the United States and Japan, and we will be stuck for a while!
