Chapter 415 Big Explosion
"Our nuclear test was successful! From today on, India will no longer be afraid of anyone!"
"Ah!" The bigwigs in the conference room screamed and stood up.
Ron was also shocked by the news. The Indian Party had indeed done something big.
Everyone, whether sincere or not, became excited.
After a while, Vajpayee came over to greet them personally and once again announced the good news that excited all Indians.
Those sitting in this meeting are all important figures in this country, and each of them is as rich as a country.
Unlike the few words just now, this time Ron and the others learned more detailed information.
It turned out that in May, a nuclear test was conducted underground in the desert of Rajasthan in western India at the order of the BJP.
The person in charge of the experiment was Kalam. On that day, he excitedly wrote in his diary, "I heard the earth roaring under our feet, and then the dust rose violently above us. It was really a beautiful sight!"
Ron and his team learned the news earlier than ordinary people, which is also an effective means for the BJP to win over and intimidate its financial backers.
They feel that from today, India will be different.
This was not the end. Within a few weeks, three nuclear tests were carried out in Rajasthan, including the launch of a hydrogen egg.
People celebrated the success of the three tests with singing, dancing and handing out candy in the streets, while Washington and other countries in the world were deeply uneasy.
Soon after, Babayang followed suit and also conducted a test explosion, and the people there celebrated with even greater fanfare.
The Indian subcontinent has become the world's most dangerous "nuclear flashpoint," even as relations between the two sides began to "normalize."
Many who had once believed in the moral foreign policy advocated by Hruru after independence and opposed nuclear weapons suddenly found themselves waving the tricolor flag in celebration.
At a party, Ron talked to a turtle who called himself a liberal.
"I don't support the BJP, but this is a very special moment in Indian history," he said. "For the first time in more than a thousand years, we have a Hindu government that has the courage to challenge the United States with nuclear tests."
It has to be said that this move by the BJP has earned it huge popularity among the people.
Even many neutral groups believe that they have taken India to a whole new level.
Ron was not in a hurry to leave New Delhi because he knew that the BJP had not yet "rewarded its members".
Sure enough, he soon received confirmation from Vajpayee, so Ron immediately called Uttar Pradesh.
Second uncle Adiya came hurriedly with excitement on his face.
"How's it going, Ron?"
"The Minister of Transportation," he chuckled.
"Wow!" Adiya waved his hands repeatedly, his face flushed.
Yes, as a big money sponsor, Ron transferred his second uncle to New Delhi.
From today onwards he is India's Minister of Transport, which oversees the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications.
The Ministry of Posts oversees 160,000 postal points across India, which are involved in mail delivery, money order remittances, small savings, insurance, and retail services such as debt collection and sales forms.
The Ministry of Telecommunications, this is the meat show, mobile communications and fixed-line networks are its basic businesses.
Which companies are in Sur Technology Group?
India Mobile! Garuda Communications Equipment Company!
This is really a mouse falling into a rice jar.
Not only was Aditya very excited, but even Ron couldn't help swallowing.
If he doesn't make the most of this position, he's not Mr. Soul.
"Second uncle, you resigned from Lucknow. Who took over your job?"
"Your cousin, Vijay." Aditya said confidently.
"Sure. He's been training in New Delhi for a few years, so going to Uttar Pradesh is a good opportunity to put that into practice."
Since the Commerce Minister of Uttar Pradesh has been taken over by the Sur family, there is no reason to give him up.
Political inheritance can be inherited within the family, which is a customary rule.
"By the way," Aditya came over mysteriously, "how much did you spend in total on this operation?"
"Ten billion."
"Rupiah?" Aditya gasped.
"Do you think it's US dollars?" Ron was speechless.
"I just have too much!"
"Why else would they agree so readily? This is the Minister of Transportation who dominates the entire country. That money helped them defeat countless rivals in the general election."
"Okay, we have to earn back this money!" Aditya said angrily.
"For the specific operation, wait for me to come up with a plan first."
"Do you need to prepare a plan before you can deal with corruption?" Aditya was stunned.
"Vulgar! How can a businessman's business be called greed? I'm promoting India's mobile communications project." Ron corrected him.
"Yes, yes, you tell me what to do when the time comes." Aditya shook his head.
"In short, this is a perfect plan. We can get paid in a legitimate way while leaving people speechless."
"Wow, Ron, you're an ambitious and corrupt official."
"Just remember, don't take any dirty money. The Suer family doesn't need that. Our money comes from business. Corruption is the lowest form of barbarism."
"You should do it as soon as possible. You have the right not to use it. It will be invalid after the expiration date."
"I'm going back to Mumbai next month, and I have something to discuss in the next couple of days."
After rewarding the merits, Ron met with the Chief Minister of Karnataka under the guise of the BJP.
With the general election coming up, all the chief ministers of the states gather in New Delhi, which is a good time for lobbying.
Ron didn't spend much effort, he just showed the other party the Sunshine Smart City plans of Mumbai and New Delhi.
He then took him to a construction site in the southern suburbs, where the other party readily accepted Sur Real Estate's grand plan for Bangalore.
The taste of power is indeed unforgettable.
With the endorsement of the BJP, he easily acquired thousands of acres of land in Bangalore.
That can no longer be called a business district, but should be called a "special economic zone"!
What a resounding name, it’s in the same vein as the University of Tokyo.
Yes, that's imitation.
Ron was the first to shout out this slogan and also made a project book according to the Pengcheng model.
It was basically copied, and both the BJP and the Chief Minister of Bangalore could see it.
But no one objected. As long as it works, who cares about the name?
The huge success of the city of Tokyo University is obvious to all, and there is nothing shameful in imitating it.
Since it is a special administrative region, there are of course tax reduction and exemption policies.
This is to attract other companies to settle in, especially foreign capital and IT industries.
The cost was enormous. It cost $500 million just to acquire the land, and that was half-sold and half-given away.
The consequence of attacks on Mumbai, New Delhi, and Bangalore is that even the small treasury of $2.5 billion is not enough.
Sur Electric Appliances has been making tens of billions of profits every month, which has been accumulated for half a year and is now all spent.
The cash on his books was less than $200 million. Fortunately, the bank was willing to loan him 70% of the amount, otherwise he would not have been able to afford the money to develop the land.
This is one of the benefits of the BJP coming to power. Through their connections, many state-owned banks can easily lend money.
The Asian financial crisis has not yet passed, and it is quite difficult for Sur Real Estate to receive such treatment.
Ron had read detailed information about the entire project and even flew over to take a look before coming to New Delhi.
That area was originally farmland near the lake, also in the suburbs, with nice scenery.
Ron likes the feeling of painting on a blank sheet of paper, without having to worry about surrounding buildings or the annoying demolition process.
Sunshine Smart City's project in South Mumbai has recently caused a lot of trouble.
That's the old city, with a lot of residents. Even though Suer Real Estate gave compensation, some people still wanted to die.
After living in Mumbai for so many years, everyone is extremely cunning and just wants to make more money.
That is Mumbai. If it were in other rural areas, those unruly people would have been physically eliminated long ago.
Later, it was Ron who called Johnny and finally got the matter settled.
The gangs always have a way to deal with people like this.
With this experience as a lesson, Ron now prefers the suburbs of New Delhi and Bangalore.
Both of these major projects have very long construction periods, and New Delhi's Sunshine Smart City is expected to be open in the millennium.
Bangalore's special economic zone will be built in stages, with the earliest phase starting in two years, but the entire zone may take five years to be completed.
Ron spent almost all the money he had, leaving only basic working capital.
The new century is coming, and all walks of life are booming. He is doing everything possible to seize the opportunity.
He does not have the foundation of Tata and Reliance, so he can only use these big projects to make up for the gap between them.
Ports, real estate, energy, communications, and consumer electronics, these major industries will not be bad.
All he lacked was time, and the millennium was the opportunity for take-off.
In the last few days of May, Ron began to meet with Daxian and other senior BJP officials frequently.
After the BJP came to power in New Delhi, other states also began to make moves.
The most eye-catching ones are Gujarat and Tamil Nadu, and unfortunately both of these states are related to Ron.
Hegarwala in Gujarat was originally a member of the BJP faction, but later defected to the Congress Party.
He is still sitting in the position of Chief Minister. If the BJP does not get rid of him, it will never swallow this humiliation.
So the question is, who will take over after Hegwara abdicates?
Ron chose Daxian without hesitation. He has invested a lot of resources in him in recent years.
It was frequently reported on TV stations and in newspapers in New Delhi.
Daxian’s current exposure is much stronger than in history, and his status in the party has also improved significantly.
The most important thing is that with Ron, a big money sponsor, pushing it behind the scenes, the BJP did not hesitate for too long and agreed to this choice.
Daxian was already liked by the current president, Kippura Jai. In recent years, he worked as a party secretary in New Delhi and made friends with many BJP leaders.
Many people spoke out in support of his appointment as Chief Minister of Gujarat.
Of course, the process is not that simple. After all, he is the Chief Minister of the state, so speeches and rallies are inevitable.
The Daxian is now gathering his men and preparing to return to Gujarat.
But before leaving, Ron found him alone.
"How can you go to a rally without a card?"
"What?" The immortal was confused.
"Here." He handed over a card with English writing on it.
"This is…"
"I just bought a new helicopter. You can use it for the next two months. You can go anywhere."
"Ron..." Daxian suddenly felt a little sad.
"The roads in the Gujarat countryside are difficult to travel, so a helicopter would be much more convenient. I hired a foreign crew, and they are very reliable."
“Once the situation in Gujarat stabilizes, come find me,” the Immortal said solemnly.
"Okay!" Ron nodded with a smile.
