Chapter 774 The first client of the package plan for a weak country and a strong army
He is very angry, this loss is too small!
After complaining, he received a call from the old man, so he could only slowly come to the island again and saw the old man.
"This is a bad start, someone actually started to think about our oil platform!" The old man looked at Americo in front of him angrily: "This is your navy's dereliction of duty!"
"Report, our navy is too weak to do anything about this kind of behavior." Americo said: "We currently only have a few patrol boats, how can we protect this sea area?"
"Didn't you say that you are going to order two frigates? When you get the frigates, you will be able to do it, right?"
"Sorry, two frigates are not enough." Americo said: "You probably don't know how to fight pirates. Now, let me introduce to you. First of all, we need to be able to find each other, which means we Early warning helicopters or other fighter jets are needed to continuously search the sea and look for suspicious situations at any time."
"The frigate can carry early warning helicopters." The old man said, don't think you don't understand, isn't it just a helicopter? Available on cruise ships.
"However, the number of helicopters on the frigate is limited. If early warning helicopters are equipped, combat personnel cannot be carried. In this way, even if pirates are found, there is no way to stop them."
"Isn't there another ship?"
"Our sea area is vast. When patrolling, the two warships must be separated. Moreover, this must take into account the fact that the two warships are dispatched at full capacity. In fact, in addition to dispatching, our warships have to return to the port to rest. With maintenance equipment, under normal circumstances, only one patrol can be maintained.”
"What if we purchase four ships?"
If there is no necessary possibility, the old man will never agree to the proposal of purchasing an aircraft carrier. You know, this aircraft carrier is a bit weird, not only has aircraft, but also amphibious vehicles!
"If you purchase four ships, it will be enough to deal with some small pirates. However, I am worried that the pirate organization will develop rapidly. If there is one, there will be two or three. In the Gulf of Aden, there are so many warship escorts, and there is no way to completely eliminate them." Pirates, what can we do with only four warships," said Americo.
"Must there be an aircraft carrier?"
"Yes, there must be an aircraft carrier. With an aircraft carrier, we can dispatch a large number of fighter planes to patrol the air at any time. Once we find pirates appearing, we will attack them as soon as possible. And, more importantly, with an aircraft carrier, we can solve the problem. The lair of the pirates, when we find the gathering point of the pirates, we will quickly drive over and land on it with our amphibious vehicles, so that the pirates can be completely eliminated." Americo said: "The attack power of this aircraft carrier It's very powerful, to be on the safe side, please send your son to be the captain of this aircraft carrier when the purchase comes back."
The old man looked at Americo meaningfully. What does this mean? Doesn't he have a second heart?
Mingzhou.
"Taozi, your business is getting bigger and bigger, and the aircraft carriers are one after another." Wu Shengli, who passed by, sat with his son-in-law, looked at the busy scene of the shipyard outside the window, and said with emotion.
"This order is more meaningful. It's not an aircraft carrier, but an amphibious assault ship." Qin Tao said: "The customer also requested the use of gas turbines. As long as the customer places an order, we can make this warship mature. When bidding, we will definitely provide the most perfect solution.”
Bidding has become a formality. No shipyard can compare with Mingzhou Group. The amphibious assault ship must fall on Mingzhou Group's side.
"Yes, our navy needs amphibious assault ships, which can just match our vertical take-off and landing fighters." Wu Shengli said.
"Vertical take-off and landing fighter jets are only a part, and our helicopter project has to speed up the progress. Fortunately, we have already started to produce the engines needed for ten-ton helicopters." Qin Tao said: "There are also air-cushion landing craft and the like, which must be done. , our navy must be capable of fulfilling the mission entrusted to us by the motherland."
"Yes, with these equipments installed, the navy's amphibious combat capability can reach a new level." Wu Shengli said, "However, don't the Guineans know about such a powerful attack force? They can allow the navy to have such a powerful force." A weapon?"
Although most of the people there are illiterate, those senior officials still have brains. After all, they have to manage the country and beware of possible civil strife.
"Of course not, so if Americo wants the old man to sign, he has to think of other ways." Qin Tao said.
"Pirates?"
"Dad, you are so smart."
"I'm so smart. I just heard such a report on the way here. I didn't expect it to be instigated by you kid."
"Dad, you have wronged me. Am I that kind of person? Our Mingzhou Group has always had a positive image in the world. Recently, we have just shattered the conspiracy of some conspirators to pour dirty water on us. You are our My own people, you can't pour dirty water on me."
Wu Shengli smiled: "Taozi, let's not talk about this. Your Mingzhou Group is going to mine in the past. This requires a stable environment. If there is war there, your investment will be in vain."
"Of course, even if they place an order, it will take time for us to schedule production. Moreover, we have to wait for the iron ore and bauxite to be dug out before we can start work for them." Qin Tao said: "Besides, As long as the agreement is signed, what can the Guinea army do? The navy is so strong, what about the army? The army must also have advanced weapons! Even if they only purchase our 59 modified tanks, they can form an overwhelming advantage over the amphibious tanks."
Because of the ability to sail on water, amphibious equipment is thin-skinned and stuffed. It is good to block small-caliber bullets, and armor-piercing projectiles fired by tank guns can easily destroy it.
So, even if the navy has a strong force, the army can easily kill their landing equipment, but if air superiority is taken into account, it is not necessarily so.
When both sides have strength, a balance is formed.
Moreover, even if there is a civil strife, it must be fought on that island. It has nothing to do with the iron mine area. Some people may think about gold mines and diamond mines. After all, those things are valuable. Iron mines and bauxite mines are different. A hundred-ton car The iron ore transported by Wang is only a few thousand dollars, or tens of thousands of yuan, which is not worth as much as that car.
Wu Shengli nodded.
Just then, Zhao Ling came over.
"Just received the news that there have been many pirate gangs in Guinea, and one of the gangs even set fire to the drilling platform, and their crude oil production has rapidly decreased."
"This movement is really big." Qin Tao said with emotion: "The output of crude oil has decreased, the old man should be in a hurry, and he probably can't wait to place an order, but unfortunately we have to wait here, why don't we sell them a few 022s first? "
Anyway, after the agreement is signed, there is no way to go back on it. Qin Tao is still very considerate of clients.
"One more thing." Zhao Ling continued: "The second buyer has come."
"Oh? Who is it this time?" Qin Tao didn't intend to guess anymore, because he would guess wrong every time. Even if he guessed this time, he probably wouldn't be right, and it would damage his glorious image. This can't be blamed. He, mainly because the client is too difficult to fathom.
"Yilak." Zhao Ling said.
Wu Shengli shook his head helplessly: "According to the relevant rules, we cannot sell weapons to them, and this transaction cannot be done."
It is estimated that Yilak also came for that package plan, from the aircraft carrier to the escorting warships and submarines, if these equipments are completed, they will become the kings of the region, but if they are really implemented, then the Mingzhou Group will Being targeted by many conspirators behind it, this is much more serious than the Laiyang steel pipe incident last time.
"That's right, even the 022 speedboat can't be sold to them." Qin Tao said.
"It's a pity, we have to reject such a good customer." Zhao Ling said, "Then I will reject them."
"Don't worry, wait." Qin Tao said: "Since they are here, we can't let them go away empty-handed."
Zhao Ling is a little confused, should she sell it or not?
"Their existence is of great significance. In particular, they can make the Yankees deflate. These recent conspiracies were all created by the Yankees. If we don't fight back, how can we be worthy of them."
Others don't know, but Qin Tao knows that those arms dealers across the ocean are eager to fight. Even without international authorization, they must continue to work, otherwise what is the meaning of their existence?
Pick the soft persimmons, and the silly big wood is their target.
Now that the other party has sent someone, Qin Tao of course wants to give some kind advice.
What they can make in the end is their good fortune, but they should be reminded.
"Taozi, you have to think it over." Wu Shengli reminded.
"Of course I have thought about it. Now, are we facing less slander? In the future, they will slander us for contacting Yilak. Of course we can't admit it. We didn't build a warship for Yilak." Qin Tao said: "But during the day There are too many people, so it’s better at night. Arrange for them to stay first, and ask for a remote room.”
In the guest house, several bearded beards were worried. They came here for important tasks, but it is already eleven o'clock in the evening. Depending on the situation, Qin always doesn't plan to see them. This time they are going to return without success. ?
Right at this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.
"Everyone, I'm very sorry, because I'm too busy with work, I haven't had time to come here until now." Qin Tao said to the bearded men.
"Mr. Qin, I'm very glad to meet you." The leader on the opposite side said, "My name is..."
"No need for introduction, let's get straight to the point, everyone, I regret to tell you that you can't buy any weapons and equipment from us." Qin Tao said: "I'm sorry."
The other party came here just to say this? The bearded man's face was ugly.
When they heard about the package plan of the East, they were very interested. After some planning, they came quietly, hoping to gain something, but now, there is nothing!
They have money, but they can't buy anything.
what to do?
"However, I can recommend some things to you." Qin Tao said: "First, have you heard of drones?"
Drones? Of course I have heard of this, but this thing is also for military use. Could it be that Mingzhou Group can use civilian excuses to sell their drones to their own side?
"At last year's air show, in addition to military drones, there were also several civilian manufacturers displaying civilian drones. The technology of these drones is still good. However, it is normal for you to operate some civilian model airplanes, and it is normal for some of the model airplanes to accidentally bump into something during the flight, causing the batteries to catch fire and explode."
The eyes of the bearded men brightened. They used to only look at military equipment, ignoring civilian equipment. It seems that there are many ways to do it.
Taking tanks as an example, the top is the most vulnerable. If you operate a drone, fly to the top of the enemy’s tank, and then blow it up, you may kill those **** M1 tanks!
Buy, must buy, and purchase in large quantities, so as to have the ability to fight back!
"Is there any more?" The bearded man became excited.
"There are also mines. This kind of thing can be deployed with small ships. If someone is against you, then you can spread this thing all over the bay. Especially, outside the port where the opponent's navy is located, give them a few If they are lucky, they will be able to weaken their combat effectiveness if they collide with a few ships."
"Mines? In addition to mines, can we purchase some small submarines?"
In the shallow sea in their southern waters, small submarines are the most suitable choice.
"Sorry, we don't have small submarines." Qin Tao said: "You can consider other countries, such as the North Kimchi Country."
Qin Tao controlled his impulse. He originally wanted to sell them some small underwater robots, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it. The money is not easy to earn.
"Any more?"
"If there is anything else, all the people are soldiers." Qin Tao said: "You have to train ordinary people so that they can use weapons. You don't need too many, light weapons are enough. If you encounter the worst situation, you can still fight with them." They fight unrestricted warfare, I have a book here, you can study it when you go back."
Qin Tao took out the book Unrestricted Warfare. For a weak country, this book is of great significance and can guide them how to fight in unfavorable situations. Moreover, the means of war are diversified, making it difficult for opponents to defend against.
Qin Tao can’t help Silly Damu change his fate, but it’s okay to shed more blood on the superpower.
"Is there any more?" The bearded man continued to ask.
"If there is anything else, it is to learn from the people around you. Aren't they using steel pipes and gas tanks to make rockets? You can also learn from them. Of course, it is not limited to these, you can also use some Exploded grenade warheads for roadside bombs..."
Listening to Qin Tao's words, the bearded man's face suddenly changed: "Boss Qin, what do you mean by these words, if we face another blow, we will be doomed?"
Nonsense, the air supremacy is gone, your blood is almost drained, you still want to win? What are you dreaming of?
"No, of course not." Qin Tao still had to shake his head: "I'm just giving you some references. These are the contents of Unrestricted Warfare. You can read and comprehend for yourself. I wish you to regain the fourth place in the world. The glory of a military power."
The expression of the bearded man changed several times, and then he let out a long breath. In fact, he knew in his heart what the intention of Qin Tao's words was. Right now, he was just taking their faces into consideration.
"Thank you, Mr. Qin."
Qin Tao left their room, and they had a book called Unrestricted Warfare in their hands, and they read it carefully.
The content in this book seems to be very suitable for guiding the current war in the imperial cemetery. Will our side also follow this path in the future? The bearded man was hesitating and hesitating in his heart. He knew that he must not talk about this matter when he went back, otherwise the frantic stupid guy would kill him with a single shot. He had to study and ponder slowly. You can also continue to fight.
Qin Tao didn't care about these bearded beards anymore, they had already quietly left the next day, Qin Tao also had a lot of things to do, for example, Americo came again, this time, with a full excited.
"Mr. Qin, the suggestion you gave is really great. It perfectly solved our problem. The old man has already signed the document. Follow the order we negotiated!"
"Mr. Americo, I feel that you have misunderstood something. I have never made any suggestions to you." Qin Tao said: "We have no other transaction except the ordered warship parameters."
Americo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, you are right, we have no other deal, I just said wrong, next, let's talk about the specific details of the contract, when will you be able to Build it for us?"
"Other frigates and submarines can be said to start construction within a few months, but if the aircraft carrier built for you is to be built in the dock, you have to wait for that ship to be launched." Qin Tao pointed to the direction of the dock.
The construction progress of Mingzhou Group is very fast. After the 002 aircraft carrier started construction, it has been built day and night, and the speed is super fast. However, no matter how fast it is, it needs time to accumulate. It does not take a year or two. Definitely can't get out of the dock.
Americo's complexion changed again: "How long will I have to wait?"
"The construction of an aircraft carrier usually takes more than ten years. We can compress it to less than five years, which is already the limit." Qin Tao said: "If you want to place an order today, you can get the goods tomorrow. , that could only be a model."
This sentence is also true, Americo nodded: "Well, I hope you can build it as soon as possible."
"Also, it will take time for us to develop the mine from you, so we can't be in a hurry." Qin Tao said: "Next, let's talk about the development of the mine. After the details are finalized, we will send engineering team."
"Okay." Americo nodded.
The East and the Guinea Navy finalized an arms sales order, becoming the first customer of the East to launch a package plan for a weak country and a strong army. This matter quickly spread around the world, making people talk about it.
There is no need for weak countries to pay money, as long as they sign an ore mining agreement, they can provide weapons and equipment. In the whole process, weak countries only need to write and sign the agreement. They don’t need to worry about anything else. All projects are carried out by Mingzhou Group. To carry out, many weak countries are tempted.
Mineral resources are placed on their land, and they have no ability to mine them, nor have they the ability to exchange them for weapons and equipment. Now, they only need to hand them over to the Mingzhou Group. For them, this is really convenient up!
Some people feel lucky about this. After hearing about this agreement, Kangaroo Country and BHP company felt how wise their choice was.
The East has rapidly expanded the import channels of iron ore. The football country, Da Mao, and the grassland country are not enough. They signed an agreement with Guinea to mine Guinea's iron ore.
Guinea's iron ore reserves are 20 billion tons, and they are also rich in iron ore. After the iron ore there is mined, the global iron ore will be even more surplus, and their iron ore prices may have to be further reduced. Thanks to the signing of the Long Association Mine Agreement, otherwise their iron ore would be even less valuable.
At the same time, they are also regretting, how good it would have been if they hadn't provoke the Mingzhou Group!
At the beginning, they thought they could occupy a monopoly position in the world, but they didn't expect that after the Mingzhou Group made such a mess, they realized how naive their thinking was! Later, they fantasized about talking with Vale to jointly raise the price of iron ore, but now, with so many ore sources pouring in, they still want to raise the price, which is causing trouble for themselves.
Moreover, Vale may not necessarily listen to them, after all, everyone is still in competition.
Now, they only have fear.
Some other weak countries have also begun to move their minds. Their domestic minerals are worthless, and they are worthless if they cannot be mined. It seems a good idea to hand over these minerals to the Mingzhou Group for mining and exchange them for warships. Choice, even some landlocked countries are tempted, let's not have warships, but tanks, planes and cannons, okay?
For a while, the tide surged.
And Qin Tao, who single-handedly started this trend, has already started thinking about vacationing.
"Our workers have worked hard for another whole year. We have to negotiate how to distribute the year-end bonus this year. We must make the workers feel happy." Qin Tao said to the people in the conference room.
"Mr. Qin, according to the old rules, we still pay two months' salary as their year-end bonus. Now our salary is constantly increasing. Those veteran workers with the most skilled skills can already get a salary of more than 5,000 a month. Well, the salary for these two months is 10,000 yuan, which is not a small sum."
In 1999, the national average salary was 623.25 yuan. Don't underestimate this small amount of money. In future generations, it will have to be multiplied by about ten times. It depends on the diet. A large portion of scrambled eggs with tomatoes is enough for two yuan, but in future generations, it will cost twenty yuan. (In 1999, Huadong Zhixiong went to high school and had three meals a day in a small restaurant outside the school. A large portion of scrambled eggs with tomatoes cost two yuan. I was very impressed. Now, it costs 20 yuan, which is only half of what it used to be. .)
Qin Tao nodded: "Two months' salary is quite a lot, so let's give out some new year's products. We will also engage in some high-tech products this year. How about a computer for each person?"
