Chapter 465: The Dragon Breaks Free from its Shackles

Anthony already had a vague yet terrifying idea of ​​what headquarters' ultimate goal was.
"What they want... is the entire African continent!"
"That's right. The famine problem in Africa is a vicious cycle with no solution.
But that's precisely the perfect excuse!
Headquarters can use the guise of 'charity' to buy people's hearts while subtly eroding and controlling the lifeline of the country.
Just like what we're doing to the Nigerian government now."
A country with such political instability and in dire need of reconstruction is as vulnerable as a blank sheet of paper in the face of a professional infiltration agency like "Wildfire."
And the banner of "fighting crime" is the perfect cover for expanding military equipment and planting agents.
As long as headquarters continues to invest and constantly improve the quality of this "proxy" army...
Ultimately, they will possess a powerful armed force that obeys only Fang Huan, is well-equipped, and has explosive combat capabilities!
"Sigh, boss, honestly, this company gives you absolutely no breathing room. The workload is overwhelming."
"But, don't you think...it's exciting?"
"Heh, that's true. Back in CAI, you couldn't do this, you couldn't touch that—all those rules and regulations were enough to suffocate you!"
That's why everyone here is like a dragon broken free of its shackles, raging through the vast ocean of Africa!
"Oh, right, boss, this is some information from the European Union."
"The European Union? What's wrong with them this time?"
"Didn't we, 'Wildfire,' plan to establish bases in multiple countries around the world under the guise of security services?
We were also planning to set up a branch in Europe, but the European Union strongly opposed it.
Especially this vice-president; she's been jumping around like crazy, doing everything she can to trip us up."
The document showed a photo of a Greek-American female politician named Eva Kali.
For some reason, Anthony felt the face looked familiar.
“This face… I think I’ve seen it in some old scandal files…
Go, dig up this woman’s entire slate, see what color it is.”
“Is this… appropriate? Our main area of ​​responsibility is Africa, daring to mess with people in Europe…”
“This is precisely an opportunity to demonstrate our value and capabilities to headquarters!” Anthony sneered.
“You really think headquarters gave us this global deployment just for some crappy security service?
Wrong! Our mission is to eliminate obstacles like this for headquarters!
If we can’t even handle this small matter, what will headquarters think of us? A bunch of empty talkers?”
“But… shouldn’t this require approval? We’ve never submitted a single formal operation report to headquarters.”
What the left hand does, the right hand must never know.
This is “Wildfire’s” first creed.
“Don’t worry,” Anthony’s smile deepened,
“Believe it or not, headquarters heard every single word of our conversation right now.
They’re watching us take control of Africa step by step through some channel we can’t understand, and they’re probably nodding in satisfaction, praising us for ‘doing a great job.’”

Fanghuan Investment, Su Hao's office.
Su Hao looked at the report that had just arrived, a fatherly smile of satisfaction spreading across his face.
"Chairman Su, is there some good news?" Li Huilin, standing beside him, asked curiously.
"Yes, very good news," Su Hao said, pointing to a photo on the report.
"Our charitable foundation recently sent another group of volunteers to Africa to help those suffering from hunger and water scarcity.
Look at these children's smiling faces, how radiant they are."
In the photo, a group of dark-skinned children surrounded the foundation's volunteers and security personnel, their smiles genuine and pure.
That kind of heartfelt joy would likely move even the most hard-hearted person.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Su, I seem to rarely see you have any extravagant hobbies."
"It seems that most of your personal wealth has been invested in charity and donations."
Li Huilin exclaimed sincerely.
“I’m quite extravagant too,” Su Hao chuckled. “Look, I’m working in a top-of-the-line luxury office right now, aren’t I?”
“But that’s… arranged by the company for you.”
Su Hao thought about it, and it seemed to be true.
He really didn’t have much to spend money on for himself.
Unlike others who either collect expensive watches or luxury cars.
He had absolutely no interest in those things, causing the numbers in his personal bank account to accumulate at an alarming rate every day.
"I much prefer doing these things," he said.
Later, he found "philanthropy" as an excellent way to "spend" money.
He now understands why the world's top billionaires are so keen to donate large sums of money to charity.
Seeing his donated money lift children out of hunger and bring such pure, radiant smiles to their faces, the heartfelt satisfaction and sense of accomplishment he felt was incomparable to any luxury.
This made him feel every day that he was doing something incredibly right and incredibly noble!
“So, from now on, I will do my best to help more people.
Sharing doubles happiness, doesn't it?”
“Chairman Su is right. That's why I also opened a personal account at the Fanghuan Foundation, preparing to make regular small donations.
Not just me, all my colleagues in the department participated!”
“Hey, I didn't force you… I'm already very happy that everyone has this intention.”
As “Wildfire” gains a foothold in Nigeria, their security forces can extend to a wider area of ​​Africa.
This means that the foundation's volunteers can deliver aid supplies to more remote places in a safer and more convenient environment.
More and more aid is gradually reaching those forgotten corners.
“Also, Chairman Su, we have completed the minimum controlling stake acquisition of ‘Rainstorm’ Company.
Those major shareholders who were previously hesitant, as well as BlackRock and Vanguard, have also agreed to stand with us.”
“That's good. What about Microsoft?”
“They tentatively struggled for a bit, realized something was wrong, and have completely withdrawn.”
