1101 It takes only land, sea and air to catch someone
Since he didn't want to let go of the robbers who were parachuting and landing in the sea, Li Changheng ordered that not only two P51 fighters with external fuel tanks took off and rushed to meet with the Dea patrol aircraft hovering on the sea.
There were also Dea's maritime patrol ships set off. After thinking about it, Li Changheng even called the New York Naval Base and the four fastest offshore speedboats set off immediately.
Even a US Navy cruiser that had already swam rapidly on the sea rushed towards the coordinates given by the dea patrol aircraft.
Then two Aquaman helicopters with a range of more than 1,000 kilometers, took off and rushed over with eight fully armed soldiers.
The first ones to arrive were of course two P51 Mustang propeller fighters with a maximum speed of 960 kilometers per hour. With the external fuel tank, the combat radius of the P51 exceeded 1,200 kilometers.
If you circulate in the air at a constant speed, you will have no problem in persisting for 3 or 4 hours.
And 3 or 4 hours is enough for the offshore patrol boats to arrive in the predetermined waters and search for the four robbers who jumped into the sea.
The only trouble is that it is still at night, and it will take at least 4 hours before dawn.
However, the air patrol aircraft of the P51 and the "Reading" Bureau only need to be prepared for ships that suddenly appear in the target sea area.
Then the Aquaman helicopter with a maximum speed of 279 kilometers per hour took only an hour and a half to arrive.
At that time, the helicopter does not have to fly back to New York. When there is insufficient fuel, you can dock on the cruiser that is coming and fill up the fuel again. It will be fine whether you continue to search at sea or fly back to New York.
The subsequent development was just as Li Changheng expected, and there was a cargo ship on the sea leaning towards the designated waters.
The three patrol planes ordered by Li Changheng did not stop the cargo ship from saving people.
The reason is very simple. If the 4 robbers who jumped into the sea were not given hope, they would definitely throw the bonds into the sea.
This can only be considered good or bad for Citi. After all, when a bond of 600 million US dollars expires, no one comes to ask for interest and principal. This 600 million is equivalent to giving it to Citi for free.
But Li Changheng and Citi's shareholders and management know that the money actually does not belong to Citi.
Not only can it be taken out and distributed to shareholders, but once it is used and cannot be investigated, it will definitely be punished by regulators for a large amount of money. The most important thing is that the blow to bank credit is far more important than money.
But if that batch of bonds is retrieved, Citi's rising stock price alone will definitely exceed 600 million US dollars.
This is the real interest of shareholders. Of course, if Citi really wants to break up, there are many ways.
Li Changheng knew that the sudden surge in funding between Citigroup and Columbia City Bank had more than one billion US dollars, which was absolutely unrelated to flour merchants, but he always regarded it as not knowing it, and it was not for the sake of profit.
However, Li Changheng was not worried that the matter would be exposed and would affect him.
One reason is that he has never agreed to take over as chairman of the board of directors because the reason is that when something really happens, he will put the blame on others.
The second is that this kind of thing is not just Citi, but Morgan Stanley and other banks are also doing it after using Citi's small bank to protect it, and indirectly becoming a shareholder of Columbia City Bank.
If you really have to be unlucky, if other banks dare to take advantage of the situation, then everyone will be unlucky together.
Even between banks such as Citigroup and Morgan Stanley, there have been funds flowing in and out of each other in terms of capital exchanges between city banks.
If you check Citi, it will definitely affect banks such as Morgan Stanley. Of course, if someone checks Morgan Stanley, Citi will have to cover them.
With this kind of interest dispute, if anyone has any trouble, other banks will have to use political power to suppress the matter.
This is probably the true manifestation of you and I among the American consortiums.
Just like Li Changheng, he is Citi's largest private shareholder, and also a shareholder of Meifu and a major shareholder of Media Group.
When it comes to Meifu and Media Group, Li Changheng is basically impossible to leave his hands alone.
If Citi really has problems, unless Morgan Stanley and Rockefeller have the opportunity to swallow Citi, they will not really ignore their shares in Citi at other times, as shareholders of Citi.

But what surprised Li Changheng was that the registered place of the ship was actually East Germany, and the location of the ship had already been on the high seas.
If Agent Dea or the American Navy forcefully boarded the ship, it would be a huge trouble.
Li Changheng heard the news and cursed in his heart, gritted his teeth and ordered fighter jets, helicopters and offshore patrol speedboats to prepare to kill the four robbers as soon as they received the order.
Anyway, ships on the high seas are indeed largely equivalent to other countries' territory, but as long as Li Changheng makes up his mind to shoot like this, he will shoot like this.
Moreover, the responsibility can be turned to the US government.
Even Li Changheng believed that Benjamin Arthur, who was facing the end of the year, would be willing to take the blame.
No, this may not be a shady blame, but the credit is given to Benjamin Arthur.
First of all, most American media are certainly willing to support Benjamin's toughness towards the polar bear.
Then, whether it is banks such as Morgan Stanley or politicians belonging to various forces, Citigroup will support Citigroup and Benjamin in this matter when it catches up with robbers and bonds.
Not to mention that the robbers were planning in Manhattan and committed a casualty incident of two deaths and one or two hundred people.
Ordinary Americans are definitely unwilling to see that the robbers are at large and their country's money is stolen by polar bears.
Thinking of this, Li Changheng called Randall Hurst without hesitation, and several other big families with good relationships.
With the support of the media and consortium, and the efforts of Citi's forces, tomorrow's report will definitely stand one-sidedly on Citi's side.
Then he helped Benjamin Arthur indirectly.
After listening to Li Changheng's plan on the phone, Benjamin only discussed with his staff team for more than twenty minutes and quickly agreed to Li Changheng's plan.
As long as it is not aboard the ship and robbery, whether it is a fighter who fires in the air, kills the four robbers in the sea, or uses means to force the East German cargo ship to leave, the White Palace will strongly support the Dea and the US Navy tomorrow morning.
The only regret is that Kenichi Aoki, the president of Aoki Group, was shot by the robber leader Hans Gruber.
Otherwise, this guy would have made a better effect than other people from the island country to stand up and denounce the robbers and East Germany.
Li Changheng's move to regain his bonds will 100% set off a wave of support and worshipping him in the island countries and other capital countries.
This is a total of 600 million US dollars. According to the price of gold, gold has been hovering between 130 and 160 years. Even if calculated at 160 US dollars, the 600 million US dollars at this time will definitely exceed 5 billion US dollars after the new millennium.
After finding such a big deal, Aoki Group and the island country will definitely be grateful. As for whether they are sincere, the media doesn’t care, and ordinary people don’t care.
