Chapter 264 Princes and Princesses Are Not Valuable
He nodded in agreement to Gami Kopke's proposal...
Joe Ga looked at his older sister, who was excitedly taking out a satellite phone to start "tactical deployment." He curiously said to Chris, who was looking at him indulgently, "Why is Gami so excited? Does she have a grudge against the Monaco Royal Family?"
Upon hearing this, Chris nodded and said, "Gami was detained by the French police for over ten days for helping Princess Charlene escape her marriage, and she's even been restricted from entering Monaco.
She's still engaged in a legal battle with the Monaco Royal Family..."
As he said this, Chris looked at Joe Ga's incredulous expression, laughed, and said, "Getting Charlene here is not a big deal since she herself is from Africa, but this time Gami is planning to bring the two princes and princess here, so you'll have to be careful.
The prince holds significant importance to Monaco; I reckon this time Gami is going to cause quite a stir."
Joe Ga, incredulous, said, "Why?
If the mother can come, why can't the children come?"
Chris looked at Joe Ga who was clueless, laughed, and said, "This is related to Monaco's history. They have an agreement with France that if Monaco lacks a legitimate male heir, it will become part of France.
King Albert II's reputation is already tarnished, so he's desperately clinging to Charlene, not willing to divorce. His illegitimate children have no chance of entering the Royal Family, and it's unlikely Charlene will bear him any more children.
Bringing Charlene along with the prince and princess here isn't a big deal, but if you really plan to take on their security, you'd better prepare a substantial contract for Monaco and hire some professionals.
While others may be more manageable, the prince must not have any issues, or the whole of Monaco will go crazy!"
As he spoke, Chris noticed Joe Ga seemed a bit hesitant and laughed, "Don't feel pressured; Monaco's location is unique, they have no enemies, and no one will target Charlene and her children deliberately. Your only job is to prevent accidents.
Moreover, if you're worried about Charlene being too conspicuous by herself, you could invite more members of the European royal families.
The Prince Carl that Gami just mentioned would be a good candidate; he's handsome, comes from a happy family, and is a darling of European media. Bringing him along could spread the media's focus.
As long as the publicity is good and shows Charlene actively engaged in charity work, the Monégasques won't have a thing to say."
Chris's attitude, taking princes and princesses so lightly, surprised Joe Ga. Watching Eric react as if it was all normal, Joe Ga asked curiously, "Who is this Prince Carl? Do you have any other recommendations to liven things up?
Apart from that, the bodyguards accompanying these princes and princesses would provide some procedural guidance for me.
I can't just flounder around blindly; it's not Monaco's retaliation I'm worried about, it's failing to fulfill my responsibilities that concerns me."
Looking at Joe Ga as if he were a simpleton, Eric said, "Carl is a prince from the poorest Swedish Royal family in Europe, and he's not even the heir to the throne. His dad has to drive himself to the palace for work; where would Carl get any bodyguards from?
If you really need 'guidance,' I'll bring Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden. She can now travel with royal household staff and a team of guards.
In reality, those guards are just for show, and royal household staff can be quite troublesome. If you ask me, just have the guys from P·B Company put on suits and be security guards."
As Eric was speaking, Gami, who was on the phone, let out a hearty laugh, promising the person on the other end that her private plane would land on time at Monaco's private airport tomorrow, telling them not to prepare anything and just bring her son and daughter on the plane.
This brother and sister treated royal family members as if they were just fruits and vegetables in the market, which truly startled Joe Ga.
They could afford to be reckless, but Joe Ga couldn't; he wiped the sweat off his forehead and, hesitating, called the Frenchman 'One-Eye,' whom he had just parted with recently.
There were a few members of the 'Iron Wall Mercenary Group' who were retired French special forces, responsible for presidential security. Bringing them in would be the right kind of professional expertise.
Joe Ga wasn't sure about the caliber of the royal security, but he figured that presidential bodyguards wouldn't be a disgrace to their status.
'One-Eye' had just returned his comrade's ashes to his family and was worrying about the future of 'Iron Wall Mercenary Group.'
After receiving Joe Ga's call, this romantically inclined Frenchman, upon hearing that the protection was for Princess Charlene, was ready to do it for free.
If it weren't for his girlfriend and comrades holding him back, he would have been ready to fly to Central Africa immediately to defend Princess Charlene to the death.
Joe Ga found the Europeans' attachment to royalty hard to understand, but having secured the 'Iron Wall Mercenary Group,' he reached out to the recently joined 'Medic Officer Bird.'
This individual was a medic with Delta Force, and he had once recommended his cousin, the former Hammerhead Shark Squad leader from HRT (Hostage Rescue Team), codenamed 'Spur'—Tim Rogers.
HRT is amongst the FBI's most elite units, and this super-elite with a law enforcement background has substantial experience in VIP security.
'Medic Officer Bird,' who was chatting with John, immediately made a call to his cousin after hearing Joe Ga's request. Then the 'Spur,' who was idle at home, didn't hesitate to buy a plane ticket to first go to Tunisia, then transfer to Central Africa.
Having settled things with 'Medic Officer Bird's cousin, Joe Ga still felt somewhat uneasy.
After much consideration, Joe Ga called the base and instructed the newly arrived B-Team to set off again, this time accompanied by twenty old Seville soldiers and a hundred soldiers. Experience more content on empire
Having given his orders, but still feeling somewhat uneasy, Joe Ga called Dr. Jemma Alexander.
He requested that the female doctor bring her boyfriend TC along to join 'Medic Officer Bird' in forming a medical team.
The adults were not a concern, but those two princes and princesses couldn't afford any issues. Jemma Alexander was a qualified pediatrician, which was exactly the specialization needed.
Once the park incident was resolved, Joe Ga could use the opportunity to visit America with Jemma to meet her remarkable parents and settle the P·B qualification issue.
With Aaron, the useless fool, taking care of strategy, Joe Ga had complete control over the arms trade in Central Africa, so the mess with 'God's Armament' could be put on hold for a while.
Now that everything was under control, the moment was right to launch 'God's Armament' operations and secure an even more advantageous position for P·B in Central Africa.
Aside from not knowing when Sangha Town would start yielding benefits, Joe Ga had time, location, and people on his side, so there was no need to rush.
Originally, buying an airplane was just to show off in front of his stingy brother, but now that members of the Royal Family could come, there was no reason to hesitate - it was time to make a grand event of it.
He wanted his brother to witness the luxuriousness of the European elite and the manners of American officials' children, perhaps offsetting his brother's miserly nature.
In the past, Joe Ga had been secretive about his business ventures, but now there was truly no need.
All of his enterprises were legally supported; he could stand tall no matter where he took them.
His younger brother had handled family affairs alone for years, enduring many hardships. Now that he'd finally found a girlfriend, Joe Ga, as his elder brother, had to ensure the occasion was fittingly impressive.
As for things like unmanned airships, once his brother had a direction in mind, Joe Ga would naturally do everything in his power to support his brother's endeavors.
Qiao Liang was only a sophomore in college this year and shouldn't be overly involved in Joe Ga's affairs.
However, networking is always useful, and meeting some celebrities to broaden his horizons is unquestionably beneficial for Qiao Liang.
Having a few kings and princesses in one's social circle can add a little more clout when doing business.
The development of 'Diamond Park' was essentially a form of 'charity,' capturing Lion King Arthur was thrilling enough, and black diamonds came with an inherent mystique.
Combined, these factors could indeed attract the interest of those idle members of the Royal Family.
Although the event was unexpected, once Joe Ga made up his mind, his capability to take action was exceptionally strong. Charlene alone wouldn't make enough of a splash, so he decided to bring in a few more princes and princesses.
This was something Joe Ga definitely couldn't accomplish on his own, but Gami's extensive connections truly amazed him.
After learning Joe Ga's intentions, Gami quickly phoned Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden to confirm the time, then had Eric extend formal invitations to both families to visit Central Africa.
The Nordic princes and princesses weren't as untouchable as people imagined. As long as it wasn't an official occasion and they weren't representing the Royal Family, inviting them was as easy as inviting friends.
Of course, this depends on who you are, but Joe Ga got to witness the influence of the Kopke family this time.
Just fabricating a reason for a gathering was enough to arrange a private plane to bring these esteemed individuals that Joe Ga wouldn't even dare to dream of – it was absurd!
Joe Ga had thought Gami would use the opportunity to bring some 'investors' for the 'Pirate Fund' and finalize the investors' list during this grand gathering.
But to his surprise, it seemed like Gami just wanted to have a party, and didn't seem too keen on mixing her 'Pirate Fund' with her personal contacts.
This approach pleased Joe Ga, who preferred to keep leisure and business separate. Gami's integrity and professional attitude left Eric, his unfortunate brother, far behind.
Once the guest list was settled, Joe Ga felt the pressure mount significantly.
They claimed to be undemanding, but out of a spirit of hospitality, Joe Ga took the initiative to call the base again, asking Old Niu to bring his kitchen team along.
Accommodation couldn't be improved overnight, but there was room to enhance the food quality...
After sorting everything out, Joe Ga proactively called his brother...
"Change your tickets, come over early. You and your girlfriend fly directly to Kenya, and I'll come to pick you up in my plane.
You're lucky this time; I'll introduce you to a bunch of princes and princesses, ha ha..."
