MTL - From Arms Dealer To King of War-Chapter 716 two options
Chapter 716 Two schemes
When Qiao Liang talked about his ideals with his brother for the first time, he also self-righteously hinted that large-scale intervention in Central African agriculture can affect local politics to a limited extent.
This is a bizarre idea that a college student had when he heard people brag about the prestige of some agricultural giants.
Qiao Liang got the order wrong at the time. It was not that getting involved in agriculture could influence politics, but that he had political influence before he could get a chance to get involved in the agricultural market. While expanding his influence, he ensured that he would not lose money.
Now that he heard President Jin's plan, Qiao Liang finally understood what 'strategic thinking' is.
This is no longer a simple business. A super state-owned enterprise like North Industries is fulfilling its responsibilities.
Prepare to plunge headlong into the Congo, cultivate the market and find a way out for Huaguo's low-end manufacturing industry, and buy time and funds for industrial transformation.
They themselves must be losing money in a short period of time. If the inland terminal in the Congo wants to make a profit, it needs to achieve a high cargo volume. Those investments will be at a loss within 10 years.
But from a higher and longer-term perspective, Huaguo as a whole is not losing money, and even has greater benefits due to the increase in industrial vitality.
Qiao Liang thinks about how he used to follow suit in the school cafeteria, lashing out at many so-called "free aid" in the news, as if he was using people's hard-earned money to please foreigners...
Thinking about it now, Qiao Liang suddenly felt a little blush.
Qiao Liang is still a little immature, he has not realized that his attention has been diverted by the big pie drawn by President Jin, once he is persuaded, he will become a natural lobbyist...
However, Mr. Xiao Qiao has been working in the mall for a while, and he agrees with Mr. Jin's plan in his heart, but he has not forgotten about his brother...
After nodding his head to approve Mr. Jin's words, Qiao Liang glanced at the representative of "China Shipbuilding Defense" and said, "My brother is with several big clients now, and he is still waiting for my reply...
Let’s put aside the matter of Congo first, I have to figure out the matter of 056 first. "
The man with glasses is called Chen Xiaodong, he heard what Qiao Liang said, and said curiously: "Who is Mr. Da Qiao's 'big client'?
Xiao Qiao may not know that the warship trade is politically risky, especially for Da Qiao.
Of course we believe that he has the ability to bypass certain restrictions, but we need to know the customer information before we can find a way to cooperate with him in trading activities.
Before I came, Mr. Zhang of our CSSC had been telling me not to be fooled by money, and Mr. Qiao must not be allowed to take unnecessary political risks.
I have two options in my hand, but I need to know the customer information before I can make an accurate judgment. "
Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment. Hearing what Chen Xiaodong meant, it seemed that a bad brother would be implicated.
Qiao Liang thought about it a little bit uncertainly, and finally said: "My brother is on vacation with people from the UAE.
He said that if he can represent 056 in foreign trade business, next year he can let 056 participate in the Abu Dhabi Defense Exhibition.
Now it’s quite risky to listen to what you say, I don’t know what my brother thinks, you can tell me your plan first, I can call and ask..."
When Chen Xiaodong heard 'UAE', his eyes lit up...
The little brother who was "open to seeing money" quickly took out two documents from his bag and handed them to Qiao Liang. Just as he was about to speak, the door was pushed open...
Tong Tong poked his head there and said to Qiao Liang: "How are the bosses talking?
There is a Ms. Yuan who wants to invite some of you to dinner. She is now in the tourism business.
Going to Afika for a hunting vacation, are you interested in learning more about it? "
Of course Mr. Jin knew who this clown was, he glanced at Qiao Liang who was reading the document, laughed and stood up, and said, "That's just right, I'm treating you!
Let's spare a little time for Mr. Xiao Qiao, and let Mr. Qiao discuss it with Mr. Big Qiao. "
Chen Xiaodong, who was fidgeting while talking about Mr. Jin, shook his head, took the lead and walked to the door, looked at Tong Tong and said with a smile: "I don't know if Director Tong is free, I want to invite him to dinner..."
Tong Tong blinked his eyes and said, "Old boy? He must be free, so I'll call him right away.
It is the old boy's responsibility to take care of emerging travel companies in the jurisdiction! "
Mr. Jin was amused by this trinket, he laughed and said: "Then I have to take care of it, it happens that our company has a business plan for Afika, if you can help us arrange the itinerary, that would be the best It's..."
Tong Tong nodded solemnly and said: "Don't worry, it's absolutely fine to leave the travel to us.
At that time, I will personally lead the team and be responsible for letting everyone eat, drink and have fun at the resort in Ndélé..."
Yuan Ya saw that Tong Tong started to pick up all the business without even a shadow of the company, she sighed, took a handful of this treasure, and whispered: "Let's eat first, talk while eating, Starting a company still needs Uncle Tong's consent..."
Tong Tong heard it, and said unhappily: "My old boy won't let me do business, how can I not let you do business?
I will work for you as the president, hehe, sooner or later, I will make everyone look at me with admiration..."
Qiao Liang didn't care about Tong Tong's business either. He sent these guests out, asked his bodyguard Victor to go out and bought a few takeaways, and delivered one to Yang's mother downstairs, and then he provided Chen Xiaodong with food while eating. The 'sale documents' were taken and sent to my brother.
About half an hour later, Qiao Jia made a video call to Qiao Liang...
………
Joga did not expect that his own phone call would set off such a big wave in the country...
Originally just wanted to flip a few ships to earn some quick money, but instead of making a lot of money, they wanted to bring a large amount of money into the Congo.
This is really big business, buying boats in Congo makes more money than selling cars!
Moreover, the production of armed speedboats does not require a lot of supporting equipment for weapons...
As long as this is more successful than business, Huaguo's arms can enter the Congo logically, and then spread along the river to the surrounding area.
Choga can decide this matter, because things like patrol boats will not cause rebound from the outside world.
As for the sales of light weapons, what the Congolese army uses is now up to Boss Joe, because they have no money.
Congo’s limited defense budget, more than half of it is invested in P·B. They want to change their outfits, and they need boss Joe to find them money from the field...
Norinco's plan is in line with Boss Qiao's character and development logic. Besides, someone has advanced funds to develop, how can such a good thing be pushed out?
Business of this level requires a long time to plan and operate, and if the Congolese government is to be brought in to negotiate, it is estimated that there will be no results in one or two years.
But Boss Joe is not in a hurry. As long as he doesn't need to pay for it himself and it is beneficial to the overall situation, he is willing to participate in the escort.
There are some hidden benefits that Boss Qiao cannot enjoy, but Qiao Liang can!
The trade volume of Jialiang trade will shrink sooner or later, and transformation must be considered.
Now spend more energy and expand your influence, so that you can avoid being shattered and killed in the future.
Compared to the atmosphere of NORINCO, "China Ship Defense" is a bit more fun...
They don't seem to be doing business, and the plan they come up with is always for the sake of Boss Joe, as if they are afraid that he will step on the line and cause trouble...
Actually, why is Qiao Jia afraid of this?
1300-ton frigate, or even a coast guard ship, really nothing to make a fuss about.
As long as they can win the US general election this time, Steven can become the Secretary of State of the United States.
Part of the right to speak in foreign affairs was held by Steven, and P. B tried to resell a few frigates of this small tonnage, and no one would trouble him at all.
Why Qiaojia put his business in February next year is waiting for the results of the general election in November this year.
If the old woman wins, then don’t mention anything, simply shrink the business in the United States, and hide in the sphere of influence of the French father.
But if that Catfish Depp wins, then there's nothing to say!
Qiaojia did not expect that people in the country would be more cautious than himself...
They proposed two plans, one is to sell ships through cooperation.
That is, Boss Joe bought a ship hull by himself, and then all the internal weapon systems and electronic systems were taken to the French shipyard for NATO transformation.
On the one hand, it is borrowing France to withstand the pressure that may come from the United States, and on the other hand, it is because in the area where the American arms radiate, purely Chinese-made warships are not necessarily compatible with other systems.
Moreover, the arms sales in the United States have always had many political conditions. If there is no way to bypass them, buyers may not be able to make up their minds to pay.
The Shah in the Middle East, including the United Arab Emirates, is more troublesome. They want to purchase F-35 to update their own air force. This kind of purchase can easily be blocked by the United States.
If they want to buy a pure Chinese ship, they must first ask the old American to agree.
The people in China Shipbuilding Corporation think more and are more thoughtful than Qiaojia. The foreign trade of 056 is a matter of time, and they also want to achieve foreign promotion in the safest possible situation.
But the premise is that Boss Joe, the big baby with dual nationality of Monaco and Greece, can't go wrong!
Transferring part of the benefits to the French shipbuilding industry will help simplify things.
This is one of the plans, and the other is much more complicated, and it involves not the simple 056, but the 055 large drive with a cost of more than 1 billion U.S. dollars...
A person as bold as Qiaojia was overwhelmed by the whimsical plan of the "China Ship Defense" people.
They didn't know that Boss Joe's client was the United Arab Emirates, but they also had target clients, and they had already gone through several rounds of contacts.
This group of people wanted to save the country with curves, and used an unimaginable method to sell a 055 to drive out first...
In the past, they have been unable to find a suitable 'middleman', and now Qiaojia himself jumped out and gave them a chance!
That Chen Xiaodong is not a simple defense salesman of China Shipbuilding Corporation, but a guy with a special status.
According to the second plan, the large-scale drive transaction can not only take shape, but also allow P·B to obtain huge benefits from it, not only not offending the United States, but even making the United States think of P·B well...
Qiaojia felt that the world was amazing after reading the plan...
