Chapter 33 The “New” Accra City
Chapter 33 “New” Accra City
"very good."
Edgar seemed satisfied with Wogelbaum's reply, and then continued: "Given that the CIA and all arms counterparts in the United States are suspected of robbing soldier boys, the plan to put the ambassador of the motherland on the table must be Do it in advance.
Ms. Stillwell, please inform the media team, especially the editors of comics and novels who conceived the origin of the Messenger of the Motherland and how to show his super powers, so that they must portray the Messenger of the Motherland as an omnipotent and the most powerful person in history. Superhero, bar none. "
"I understand." Madeleine nodded lightly and proactively suggested: "Sir, I think it would be more fluent to use the title Homelander instead of removing The from the messenger of the motherland."
"As long as the board of directors can be satisfied and the company can continue to make profits, it's up to you to decide." Edgar had no objection.
"Okay, then leave it to me."

While Watt's senior management was discussing who planned the attack, it was already sunset in Accra, the capital of Ghana, which was 10,000 kilometers away from New York and the time difference was five hours ahead of New York.
The orange-red light dyes the clouds, coupled with the suitable tropical climate, as well as the golden beach and turquoise ocean in the south, it looks like a resort no matter how you look at it.
If it were not in Africa, Accra would be favored by tourists from all over the world, but it is bound to negative words such as war, disease, robbery...
Even though Ghana is considered to be at a relatively high level across the entire African continent in terms of security, education, health, medical care and other aspects, no one dares to risk their own safety and is shunned by this place.
However, today's Accra has quietly undergone "qualitative" changes without the outside world noticing.
Looking over the city, its central neighborhoods and streets are framed by a variety of eye-catching black and yellow warning fences, because these areas are undergoing large-scale renovation, renovation and construction.
Rough prototypes of hundreds of meters high buildings, apartments or office buildings have been erected at many construction sites.
Some construction sites are constantly digging downwards, and it seems that they are improving or even rebuilding the city's underground electricity, water supply, and power supply systems as much as possible.
And the construction team seems to know no reason to be tired. Even if the sky is getting darker, it cannot stop them from "burning the midnight oil" and continuing to work overtime.
If you zoom into the field of view and observe, you can find that this is clearly Africa, but more than 70% of the construction team members have light-colored skin of yellow or white.
Based on the eye-catching red "Λ" logo on the clothes and protective gear of these employees, it is not difficult to guess that they are employees of Atlas. They also belong to one of the departments with the largest number of people and the widest range of employees, and they also consume a lot of money. one--
Engineering Department.
There are multiple branches under the Engineering Department, such as "engineers" who operate with the ARS company, have higher authority and understand core secrets, and there are regular personnel who gather in the city of Accra and are responsible for building infrastructure.
Since the establishment of the Accra campus responsible for the production and testing of new generation weapons, Atlas has started to "radiate" and "expand" outwards with the park as the center, and has continuously called in engineers deployed from all over the world.
After all, Accra is the closest to the ruins with the space gate, and it is also the most suitable to develop into a stronghold second only to Seattle.
From 1993 to 1994, the arrival of Atlas directly promoted the rapid development of the local economy.
Many family members, relatives and friends also followed the engineering staff and came to Accra to prepare for long-term residence. On the contrary, they became the main local consumer group.
The other 30% of the construction team are locals carefully selected by the personnel department through a series of examinations and tests.
The most important thing is to ensure that the selected local employees are loyal, followed by not being irritable and having positive characters such as being helpful, honest and trustworthy, etc.
Of course, this is not specific to one person in one place, but no matter where Atlas is, it needs to go through the same process when recruiting new employees.
The company treats every team and employee who is truly integrated into the core, internally, equally. For example, the elite third infantry company of the ARS that provides support to Lyon is equipped with mechanical skeletons and the latest technology earlier than the hunter company led by Arthur Morgan. individual weapons.
Equally, most of the reconstructed warriors who can directly go into battle and perform tasks are deployed and arranged by the hunter company.
Comparison, jealousy and other psychology cannot be truly eradicated, but Atlas turns these emotions into healthy competition.
Which company or department has the best "performance" this year will receive corresponding equipment, weapons and rewards. Even if it is at the bottom, Sui Yang, as the boss, will give a consolation prize privately. There is no "painting" at all.
But the prerequisite for everything is to successfully become an employee who signs a contract with Atlas and has legal effects. However, the actual situation is that 90% of people fail at this step.
As for the local population in Accra, due to many factors, the actual number is much higher than 90%.
In addition to the infrastructure that Atlas is best at and seems to "favorite" the most, the security in Accra's urban area has also been significantly improved.
If you continue to observe from a bird's-eye view, it is not difficult to find that between the streets, there are sometimes groups of two, armed with firearms, and "soldiers" wearing dark blue combat uniforms patrolling the streets.
If the road is congested, these "soldiers" will also act as traffic police and rush to the scene to command and clear the traffic.
The soldiers with red "Λ" armbands are actually regular mercenaries of Atlas, providing contracting services for some unofficial customers.
A private enterprise should not have the right to intervene in the maintenance of public security in a city.
But after the Accra police station, and even emergency services and public departments such as fire and hospital were sponsored by Atlas with "billions of dollars", all problems were solved.
The personnel providing emergency services were disbanded and reorganized, and Atlas was responsible for training, screening and appointment.
If it were not for the principle of sovereignty, international consensus and some rules and regulations of international law, Atlas and Suiyang would be fully capable of "buying" the whole of Ghana.
All this has not yet attracted the attention of the outside world, but with the efficiency and progress of the current drastic reconstruction and reorganization, it is only a matter of time for the outside world to know.
However, Atlas's public relations department has already started preparing a response plan to deal with various tricky topics fabricated by the media for gimmicks and traffic, such as "Giant is interfering with the sovereignty of other countries! Blasphemy against democracy!", "Giant is trying to legalize colonial behavior!", etc.
In this regard, Sui Yang just wants to quote the words of Jonathan Irons, the "villain" in "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare", and then give a summary-
"Drop a few bombs, overthrow the dictator, and declare this on a ruined land. "Drop it, people need protection, rules, boundaries, security and infrastructure to support everything."
In the top of the discussion area, there is Irons' classic sentence
