Chapter 1108 Grand State Banquet!

In Africa, even in African countries, Yang Ming has not seen a single black person since he arrived at Johannesburg International Airport until now. Isn't that strange?

In fact, Nanfei is like that now.

In the manor-style luxury hotel, Yang Ming is even less likely to see a black person.

On the contrary.

Yang Ming saw all white people.

Except for the hotel security personnel, waiters, etc., all are white.

Yang Ming and others took their things from the car and arranged to stay in the luxury suite here.

Here, only Sir Yang and his party stayed here during this period.

"Boss, I feel it's really strange here." Lin Xiuzhi came over and whispered.

"This is the situation here."

It was 16:00 in the afternoon.

Lunch time has passed, and dinner time has not yet arrived.

Yang Ming had already eaten on the plane.

Even so.

Now a simple lunch has been prepared in advance.

"Sir Yang, Mr. Peter Porta said that a sumptuous state banquet will be prepared to welcome you tonight."

Basically.

State banquets are prepared in the evening.

Yang Ming ate simply.

Looking over, it was all Western food, and even red wine.

Of course, Yang Ming had eaten on the plane, so he wasn't hungry now.

In Yang Ming's luxury suite.

Chen Zhenhua, Zhang Guohua and others carefully checked and confirmed that there were no listening devices.

Yang Ming, Lin Xiuzhi, He Chaoxun, Alina, Yingla are here.

People like He Chaoxun, Alina, and Yingla are all very smart, and Lin Xiuzhi has been with Yang Ming for so long and has learned a lot.

"Do you think this place is strange?"

"Boss, this is obviously a big city in Africa, why don't you see those black people?"

Why?

It's because of the isolation policy of zz.

In such a big city, you can't see those black people, even the black elites, it's hard to see.

Moreover, now there are five million white people in Southern Philippines managing this country, and there are 30 million other black people, who are basically in poverty. Many either live in rural areas or remote areas, or do very hard work such as mining.

In addition, there may be some who work as servants.

However, even if those black people work for white employers, they cannot live in their white employers' homes.

They work during the day and have to rush back to their slums or rural homes at night.

It is precisely because of that that this policy has been sanctioned by Europe and the United States, and it has also led to deep conflicts between whites and blacks in Southern Philippines.

In addition, Southern Philippines has been open to the outside world in order to maintain its position as the largest country in Africa.

Including Angola, and the current Southwest Philippines, which was colonized by Southern Philippines, which was later Namibia.

Yang Ming looked out the window and said, "We also have our own companies and agents in Southern Philippines."

Although the Empire Group's investment in Southern Philippines was not large before.

However, some industries of the Empire Group have already entered Southern Philippines.

Among them, including the Empire Game industry, it has its own partners and agents here. It is also these partners and agents that the Empire Game's new games have been continuously entering Southern Philippines, and then entering African countries through Southern Philippines.

Although most African countries are still too poor to eat, they certainly cannot afford game products.

However, there are still rich and wealthy people.

In addition to this, there are also the shipping companies under Jardine Land, Wheelock and Hutchison Whampoa acquired by the Empire Group, including the Hong Kong First Shipping Group after integration. As one of the most advantageous ports in Southern Philippines, although it can now directly pass through the Suez Canal without having to go around the ports of Southern Philippines, the First Shipping Company here also has its own port terminal shares and even many registered ships.

Now Yang Ming is going to let He Chaoxuan, Alina and Yingla check some information first.

Afterwards.

Yang Ming must determine the controlling stake in Standard Bank of Southern Philippines, that is, to turn Standard Bank of Southern Philippines into a bank of the Empire Group.

In addition, what Yang Ming has to do is to act according to the changes in the situation here.

If nothing unexpected happens, European and American capital will gradually withdraw from Southern Philippines.

In fact, this is a very good opportunity for the Empire Group to enter, including the market and a large number of mining industries.

However, this involves very important issues in the future.

After the 1990s, Southern Philippines will inevitably be ruled by black people.

Then, if the Empire Group cannot cooperate with the blacks, it will not make much sense for the Empire Group to enter the Southern Philippines market and take over the markets left by the withdrawal of European capital and whites.

Moreover, Yang Ming knows the nature of those blacks too well. Those European and American capitals can't handle it themselves, let alone the Empire Group.

This means that it is impossible for the Empire Group to cooperate deeply with the blacks in Southern Philippines in the future.

. . .

Johannesburg.

Now a building.

Peter Bota and other important white senior executives work in Johannesburg. Usually Peter Bota has to go back to the administrative capital Pretoria to work.

This time, he came here because of Sir Yang's arrival.

"Has Sir Yang arranged it?" Peter Bota asked.

"Mr. Bota, Sir Yang has arranged to stay at the Manor Hotel."

Peter Bota nodded.

At this time, he was also worried.

On the one hand, Europe and the United States did not support him, and on the other hand, he was always suppressed by the counterattack of the blacks in Southern Philippines.

However, he also knew that this was like a dynamite that was about to explode, and it would explode sooner or later.

Now, the arrival of Sir Yang gave him a different idea.

Perhaps Sir Yang can help him.

After all, Sir Yang's capital is now spread all over Europe and the United States, and his relationship with Country Y is particularly good. Perhaps Sir Yang can play a lot of roles as a middleman between South Africa and Europe and the United States.

"Sir Yang's arrival this time is our opportunity, so we must greet him well."

. . .

Johannesburg time.

19:00 in the evening.

The hotel where Yang Ming stayed.

At this time, the most important figures in South Africa such as Peter Bota were welcomed here, as well as Yang Ming and others.

This time it was the grand state banquet hosted by Peter Botta for Sir Young.

This grand state banquet is very rich.

Even though South Africa is now starting to go downhill, in order to greet Yang Ming, Peter Porta held a state banquet exactly like he entertained Su Lian and the head of state M.

A variety of meat, seafood, vegetables, fruits, red wine and more.

These are very luxurious.

Yang Ming, He Chaoluo, Lin Xiuzhi, Ying La, Alina, and even Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Jiahui, Lin Dezhong and others all participated in this grand South Philippines state banquet.

Peter Porta held up the high-end red wine produced in South Africa.

At this time, South Philippines was already rich in red wine, but its popularity was not comparable to that of Bordeaux red wine.

"Cheers!"

. . .

Yang Ming took the red wine glass and toasted a glass of red wine to Peter Porta and others opposite him, and then sat down to eat.
