Chapter 312 The Richest Man Discusses Luoton
"I saw the news. It's Rodon, right? He's not only the deputy inspector general, he also oversees all inspection work, which is equivalent to an inspector general." Adani said with a smile.
He was certainly well-informed and was able to obtain more information that was not mentioned in the news reports.
It is known that Rawdon is acting as the Inspector General in his capacity as First Deputy Inspector General.
To be honest, he was a little surprised to hear that Rawdon was transferred to Gujarat. It was a bit sudden.
He and Rawdon have some personal acquaintance and their relationship is pretty good.
He would definitely make friends with young people with potential like Rawdon.
He is a businessman, he needs to invest and have vision.
He still believes in his own vision.
Just like his relationship with Laoxian.
He knew Laosen a long time ago. At that time, Laosen was not the Chief Minister, but just an officer of the BJP in Gujarat.
Because he and Laoxian are both from Gujarat and are fellow villagers, this relationship was established in this way.
When his fellow villagers need some money, he always donates generously.
With financial support, Laoxian can basically get things done, and he does it very well.
This won the recognition and favor of the bigwigs in the People's Party, and Laoxian's status rose sharply afterwards.
He has been the Chief Minister of Gujarat since 2001, and it has been twelve years till now.
One can imagine the status of Laoxian here, which is deeply rooted.
Kupang is also the most important state for the BJP.
He will soon become the BJP's candidate for prime minister in 2014, and it can be said that he is the number one in the BJP.
The Congress party's candidate for the 2014 prime ministerial election will be Rahul Gandhi.
This is a big shot with a distinguished background.
Rahul Gandhi is the son of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi and the heir to the Gandhi family. His biological mother, Sonia Gandhi, is currently the president of the Congress Party.
After Rajiv was assassinated, the Congress Party originally wanted to let his wife Sonia take over and compete for the prime minister's throne.
However, Sonia was a foreigner who married into India, so there was controversy when she ran for prime minister.
So Sonia only served as the president of the Congress Party, while the post of Prime Minister was held by Manmohan Singh.
Rahul has been appointed as the vice-president of the Congress party, a move that clears the way for him to run for prime minister in 2014.
Because Manmohan has served two terms and is getting old, so he wants to retire.
So Rahul will immediately become the second in command of the Congress party and will be the natural candidate to contest for the highest power.
Lao Xian is the most successful investment in Adani’s life.
The investment in the old immortal brought him huge returns.
Since the old man had been the Chief Minister of Kupang for more than ten years, Adani naturally acquired huge wealth in the local area.
Now he is also very optimistic about Roton.
Although Luoton is a national civil servant, he is not very different from politicians like Laoxian.
But the power in Luoton's hands is still astonishing.
Especially since Rotun is so young, as long as he is given time, his status in the future will be even higher.
He is in business, and his business will spread all over the country.
It requires relationships with politicians, but also stable relationships like those in the civil service system.
In fact, his connections in the civil service system were not limited to Rotun, but there was only one person as amazing as Rotun's.
"What do you think?" asked the old immortal.
In private, they have a very close relationship and seem to speak casually, after all, they have been friends for decades.
Lao Xian does not have the airs of a chief minister, and Adani does not have the aura of the boss of the Adani Group.
Adani understood what the old immortal was asking.
As the boss of a large group, in addition to having a keen sense of business, you also need to have corresponding sensitivity in politics.
If you don't have a certain level of political sensitivity, you won't be able to do big business.
“Maybe the Congress wants to use Rodon to cause trouble for us,” Adani said.
"He's just a young man. Can the Congress Party really trust that letting him come will achieve the desired effect?" said the old immortal.
"Don't underestimate Rodon," Adani said. "I have studied his experience and I know he is indeed exceptional and a rare talent among young people. I believe you also know that Rodon was born in a poor family and lived in the Dharavi slum. He has achieved what he has today step by step."
"I take back what I said just now." The old immortal smiled and said, "I underestimated this young man. He helped us a lot some time ago and put many guys from the Congress Party into jail."
The old immortal actually has a good impression of Roton.
Because he had seen all the cases that Rawdon had handled before in the CBI.
So this impression score must be quite high, at least above the passing line.
"However, precisely because he is not simple, his visit to Gujarat this time may cause us great trouble." The old immortal frowned slightly when he said this.
Deep down in his heart, he did not underestimate Rawdon.
"Yes, there will be big trouble, I think so too," Adani agreed.
"I know you have some friendship with him. Why don't you go find him sometime and find out what he has to say?" asked the old immortal.
"That's no problem." Adani smiled, "I'll meet him in the next two days. But I don't think his coming this time is necessarily a bad thing for us."
"Oh?" The old immortal showed some interest. "Tell me about it."
Although he thought that Rotun's coming would bring a lot of trouble, he had been here for so many years and had built a huge network of relationships that was very solid. Even if Rotun caused some trouble, he believed that he could handle it.
Of course, it would be best if we could minimize these troubles.
Now that Adani actually said it might not be a bad thing, he became even more interested.
He knew that Adani was not the kind of person who made empty promises, so he believed that what he said was well thought out.
It's really unexpected that a bad thing turns into a good thing.
Anyway, he hasn't thought that Rotun's coming this time is a good thing.
It would be good if we could minimize the impact.
Good thing?
I really haven’t thought about it.
"In fact, we cannot regard Rodon as a member of the Congress Party," said Adani.
This made the old immortal ponder for a while, and soon he understood: "I understand what you mean. Previously, many media outlets on the Congress Party side were reporting that Luoton was on our side, but I didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Luoton was sent to our side. Luoton is not one of us, nor is he on the Congress Party side."
"Yes, that's what I think," Adani said. "From what Roden has done so far, he is a man who hates evil and will not show mercy to anyone who commits a crime. He is a standard civil servant who performs his duties impartially."
"Haha~~ That's right, he is a neutral party. Not long ago, he attracted a lot of criticism from people in Delhi." The old immortal laughed and said, "In my opinion, it's a good thing that he was arrested. Some people are really too lawless. Someone needs to come out and teach them a lesson. Do they really think they can do whatever they want and act recklessly without taking any responsibility for their crimes?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"But there are still too few people like Rawdon, and he can still manage too little." Adani smiled, "So, I think Rawdon's coming here will just be a good opportunity to reorganize the police system like he did in Delhi."
Adani's words made the old immortal frown and he did not answer immediately.
Adani knew that the old immortal was thinking and had concerns in his mind.
He didn't speak in a hurry, waiting for the old immortal to think it over.
"The current Gujarat police are our people." After a long while, the old immortal said, "If we let Luo Dun clean up the mess, we will lose a lot of people and our prestige will be greatly affected. This is the purpose of the Congress Party, they want to strike us down."
"It may be disadvantageous for us in the short term, but in the long run, if handled properly, it will be a good thing," Adani said.
"Come on, don't beat around the bush, let's get to the point." The old immortal knew that Adani must have a plan in mind, but he just hadn't said it yet. "This time, I really didn't think too deeply about the impact of Roden's coming here."
"You are too busy with too many things to do, so how can you have the time to think deeply about these things?" Adani said with a smile.
In his opinion, if the old immortal calmed down and thought about Luoton's matter, he would definitely come up with the same idea as him.
But the old immortal is the chief minister, in charge of every aspect of the state, and there are too many things to do.
He knew that the old immortal paid attention to Roden's arrival.
This is because Luoton is quite famous. If someone else were to serve as the deputy inspector general, the old immortal would probably not care.
For him as the chief minister, a deputy inspector general cannot have any impact on the overall situation.
Unless the Federal Ministry of the Interior replaces the Chief of Police in Kupang, the old immortal will really take it seriously.
This time, Roton came to reorganize the police system. In Laoxian's opinion, he just wanted to get rid of some people within the police.
This will indeed lead to the elimination of some of the People's Party's people within the police system, but the impact will not be too great.
Because the People's Party has infiltrated the local police very deeply, it is not enough to just get rid of a few police insiders.
Just get rid of a few and replace them in the future. How big of an impact can it have? Therefore, the old immortal didn't care too much about Luoton's arrival.
This loss is still limited for them.
"Don't you think the police are a little too corrupt now?" Adani asked.
"You know what the police are like. They are all like this. You can't demand the same of them as Roton, right? It's unrealistic." said the old immortal.
"No, that's not what I meant." Adani nodded slightly. "Take the port economic zone for example. I have heard that many new companies and enterprises have been extorted a large amount of entry fees by the local police station. This is just the entry fee. There are also various security fees, police fees and other fees. These miscellaneous fees add up to swallow up a lot of profits of these companies. The police rely on their good relationship with the government and are becoming more and more unscrupulous. In the long run, it will not be a good thing for your economic development reform. It will worsen the business environment. Of course, even if it is like this now, it is better than the environment in other states. But what if it continues?"
Adani's words silenced the old immortal.
What he is most proud of is that during his tenure, the economy of Kupang has developed rapidly, and the economic growth rate has basically ranked first, which has raised the economic status of Kupang to the forefront among all states.
It can be said that economic development is his greatest political achievement and business card, and is the most talked about thing.
If there is a problem in this area, it will shake his foundation.
This is absolutely not allowed.
Of course he knew about the various problems on the police side, but when he faced these things, he usually asked his subordinates to turn a blind eye.
Because the police are now the government's pawns, they need the police as thugs to do the dirty work.
In this case, if the police want to get some benefits, the government will naturally not interfere.
If it were other states, especially where the relationship between some state governments and the police was not good, then the two sides would have all kinds of quarrels. As long as one side had some problems, the other side would definitely make trouble.
The police in Kupang are now indeed obedient and follow the government's orders, which makes it difficult for the government to handle some things.
Because the other party is really cooperative and cooperates with the government on many things.
It must have been good at the beginning, but as time went by, the people on the police side became greedy and unscrupulous.
What Adani said is definitely correct. In fact, Laoxian has also received some relevant reports.
If it continues to develop, it will really affect the business environment.
"It is not easy for us to take action, after all, there are many complicated relationships involved. I am not afraid to say it directly, but there are also many people within the BJP who are involved. Since we are afraid, let outsiders clean it up," said Adani.
The old immortal knew that Adani was talking about Rodon.
"If it were anyone else, they really couldn't do this." Adani had already opened the conversation, so he continued, "Rodun now has the support of the Federal Ministry of the Interior. In addition, he is a person who can't tolerate any injustice. He is the most suitable person to do this. We can use his hands to clean up some of the scum in the police system. This can at least serve as a deterrent and make other guys back off. I think this will be very helpful in improving the business environment. In the future, the blame will be borne by others. It has nothing to do with us. Let them blame Rodun and the Congress Party. It's all their fault."
"Haha~~" the old immortal laughed and said, "Most people will probably curse the National Congress Party. This kid Luo Dun is just an executor. He is just following orders."
"So, I think I can discuss this with Roden in private," Adani said. "He's not a stupid person. He must know the purpose of the Congress Party asking him to come here. I think, even if he hates evil, he should know that it is definitely not good to offend people everywhere. As long as he controls the scope of the attack, I think it will be very beneficial to us."
"I'm really afraid that he is the kind of stubborn person who cannot be persuaded. That would be troublesome," said the old immortal.
"I have met him before and I know him a little bit." Adani said with a smile, "He is definitely not the kind of young man who gets stuck in a rut. I believe I can convince him. This will be good for all of us, a win-win situation. No one will refuse, right?"
"Well, I'll leave this matter to you." The old immortal took a long breath and said, "As long as he is willing to cooperate, he will also receive my goodwill in Gubang in the future. But don't make a big fuss about this, just do it privately."
The Truth News quickly reported the news about Fang Ge.
Regarding the fact that his land was targeted and the police did nothing, all kinds of evidence were published in the newspapers, basically pointing directly to the fact that it was the Ahmedabad Police Chief Hemoya Sarkar who was behind it.
