From Arms Dealer To King of War

  Chapter 994 in the name of Jackal (Thousand chapters commemorate, ask for a ticket!)

  Joga didn’t take any measures to keep it secret, but he didn’t expect that the news here would spread so quickly, and those giant companies would move so quickly after they smelled it.

  The "Fierce Dragon" of the old mother's house and the "Gripen" of Sweden also want to join the competition for the UAE order.

  The order of 15 billion US dollars has made many people salivate!

   As two very characteristic fighter jets in the world fighter jet trade, they obviously don't want to miss this opportunity.

  Compared with Rafale and MiG-35, Xiaolong and Gripen may be slightly inferior in ability, but they are cost-effective.

   Whose money doesn’t come from strong winds. The foreign trade price of Rafale is around 200 million US dollars, Xiaolong is only 50 million, and Gripen is only 90 million if it is more expensive.

  In terms of equipment requirements alone, excluding the factor of showing off wealth, the difference between 80 Xiaolong or Xiaolong and 80 Rafale is really not that big for the UAE.

  The old mother's family and Sweden are indeed not close in terms of safe output capabilities, but France is not so good...

  Boss Joe can understand the needs of these two companies, but he is too familiar with the **** virtues of the Abu Dhabi royal family. It is their label to only buy expensive ones and not the right ones.

  Joga felt that it didn’t matter if the Gryphon participated, but this kind of thing that was destined to be disappointed should not bring the old mother’s family along.

  However, Boss Joe still doesn't have a particularly in-depth understanding of the key points in the fighter jet trade.

  He ignored how attractive the companies that produce fighter jets are to the actual combat demonstrations while competing with competing products on the spot.

  The Yemen safe zone was collectively nodded by the five big brothers, which means that what will happen there will be a completely legal war, even more legal than Iraq and Afghanistan.

  No one wants to miss this kind of actual combat opportunity!

  It is the reputation of the old Americans not participating. Their fighter jets are flying all day long, so there is no need to waste money by doing this kind of demonstration.

   And Boss Joe will definitely send the F-16s to Djibouti, so they don't care at all.

  Laomei is confident, but other families cannot.

   Missed this rare opportunity to compete in actual combat. In the future, whenever he participates in international bidding, he will be brought up by his opponent to talk about the matter.

   Rafale and MiG 35 are medium multi-purpose fighters, while Xiaolong and Gripen are light multi-purpose fighters.

   If you only look at the data, it must be that the medium-sized fighters are better, after all, they fly farther.

   But when discussing actual combat effectiveness, the main thing to look at is demand.

  For most of the countries with small territory and the national defense positioning is mainly defensive, Xiaolong and Gryphon are definitely enough.

   Moreover, the one-to-one decision is actually the fighter’s radar and missile performance, as well as its ability to resist electronic interference. This has nothing to do with whether you are a medium-sized or light fighter!

  But in the end, these things on paper still have to be attributed to actual combat.

   It's the mule or the horse that comes out for a walk. If anyone wins, even if he misses the order from the UAE, he can get it back in other places later.

  Selling fighter jets is not selling cars. Most of the consumers of this stuff are internationally recognized sovereign countries, and their role is to improve the user's defense system.

  Normal purchases start with 5 aircraft, and subsequent upgrades and maintenance are also ways to make huge money.

   Talking about a family is equivalent to getting a gold mine, not to mention the derivative political benefits generated by the other party because of the air force's dependence on you!

   In this regard, the old mother's family is really not interested. They are still in the stage of posting money and trying to export their influence.

   After Choga received the call, he agreed to Jamie about the Gryphon's participation in the war...

  People bring their own dry food and come to help you fight the battle. It's really not good not to give face.

   But he hasn't thought about Xiaolong in the old mother's house...

   Just as Boss Joe was returning to the penthouse to nurse his poor son, Dorian came over with two middle-aged men...

   Qiaojia sat on the sofa holding his son in one hand and holding the feeding bottle in the other, watching Igor eat greedily, Qiaojia said helplessly: "Let's bear with it, Dad will take you to the resort in a few days.

  Be more obedient, smile more, make your mother happy...

  I think you are still competitive with sloths! "

   As he spoke, Qiaojia looked at the two guests who came up, and he smiled at one of his acquaintances, Zhonghang Li Weiguo, and said, "Mr. Li, you can sit wherever you want...

   Everyone is their own person, so you are welcome here. "

  Li Weiguo and Qiao Boss experienced the evacuation of overseas Chinese from Libya. He helped to win the early Blue Sword 7 of Qiao Boss.

  Seeing Boss Qiao coaxing his son, Li Weiguo smiled and took out a big red envelope and put it on Igor's stomach, and said with a smile: "It's the first time we meet, as an elder, I have to express myself."

   Speaking of which, Li Weiguo pulled the middle-aged man beside him and said with a smile, "Jackal, this is Jin Kaiyang from North Industries, Mr. Jin, he has dealt with Xiao Liang, and everyone is his own..."

  When Qiao Jia heard this, he stood up with his son in his arms, shook hands with Mr. Jin, and said with a smile: "Jialiang Shipyard is also thanks to Mr. Jin's help, otherwise Xiaoliang would not have found so many engineers.

   In the future, the construction of the inland water terminal in the Congo will have to take care of Mr. Jin. "

  The Congo Inland River Wharf project is actually under the name of Jialiang Trading, spending money from North Industries. Of course, Qiaojia has to be more polite when speaking.

Mr. Jin acted very naturally. He took out a small box from his pocket with a smile on his face, opened it and took out a small jade gourd tied on a red string, and showed it to Qiaojia. After getting permission, Lightly put it on Igor's wrist.

   "Be careful, Joe, don't give up!"

   Qiaojia glanced at the jade gourd hanging on his son's wrist like a lotus root, he took a step back and nodded in greeting, and said with a smile, "You're too kind!"

   As he spoke, Choga turned to Carmen who was not far away, and said with a smile: "Hey, beauty, can you help me get some drinks..."

   Soon, under the guidance of the old cow, Carmen brought a few cups of tea, then hugged Igor who was full, and patted his back lightly while walking to the balcony...

   Qiaojia looked at the two in front of him, smiled and said, "What do the two bosses want from me?

  If you can help, I will definitely help! "

   Li Weiguo and Boss Qiao can be regarded as comrades-in-arms who have experienced dangers, and he didn't go around in circles, and said directly: "Supposedly I shouldn't be in charge of this matter, after all, I am in charge of the drone business, but who told me to know you well...

  You just leaked the word below, many people are interested in the UAE's arms purchase business.

  We also want to blend in..."

   Qiaojia glanced at Mr. Jin who was smiling and silent, and after a moment of silence, he shook his head slightly and said: "They are all my own, and I won't lie to you.

  The orders from the United Arab Emirates will most likely fall into the hands of the French in the end. Those guys are too rich to burn, and they probably don't like the third-generation aircraft like Xiaolong.

  In fact, I just fooled Mikoyan to spend money in the past. After all, my funds are limited, and I used my own fighter jets throughout the battle in Yemen, which was a bit overwhelming for me.

   And to be honest with you two, my ultimate goal is not to be a fighter jet..."

  Li Weiguo and Jin Kaiyang looked at each other, smiled and looked at Qiaojia, and said: "Jackal, whether we can finally get the order is not the most important thing, we need to let Xiaolong appear in actual combat.

  Don't worry, we will do what other families do, and we will never make things difficult for you. "

   Speaking of which, Li Weiguo approached with a smile, and said, "Jackal, what is your ultimate goal?

   Can you tell us, we are all from our own family, we will be happy to help you. "

   Qiaojia saw that Li Weiguo and the others didn’t mind running with him, so he naturally didn’t care…

  Faced with the question, Boss Joe hesitated for a while and said, "I have a big plan about Yemen..."

   Upon hearing this, Li Weiguo asked curiously, "Isn't the issue of Mukalla settled?"

   Qiaojia waved his hand and said: "That's a few adults who have discussed it, but in the end I still have to do the dirty work myself.

  To be honest, taking advantage of the UAE's order and fooling a few fighter jets in the past is just icing on the cake.

  The Shah only gave 8 billion US dollars in funding in the early stage. I have to save some money to solve the Al Qaeda around Mukalla.

  You should be familiar with the situation of P·B. My manpower has never been enough.

  In the early stage, I will send 200 Kurdish fighters and P.B artillery from Iraq to Yemen, but after the security battle is established, mercenaries will have to be used.

   If you want to extend the front line, control the area around Mukalla, and protect all the resource points, you need at least 3,000 soldiers.

  Even according to the minimum logistics standard for mercenaries, 3000 soldiers would need 1000 field logistics and 2000 regular logistics to maintain combat effectiveness for a long time.

  Regular logistics can be recruited on the spot, but with the equipment of the 4,000 people and there are still people eating horse chews, 8 billion will not last long at all.

  So I have to find a way to raise funds and equipment from outside!

  You only know about the UAE’s air force orders, but you certainly don’t know that Qatar has nearly $50 billion in army equipment orders.

  I just signed a 4-year defense contract worth 4 billion U.S. dollars with Qatar a few months ago, and I happened to be a little face-saving friend in it. "

  When Mr. Jin heard this, he straightened his back immediately, and said in disbelief: "Qatar just signed an 80 billion U.S. dollar arms purchase contract with the United States. Why do they..."

   Qiao Jia spread his hands and said: "Paying the protection fee is all false, and how much of the 80 billion can be completed in the end is still a question.

  The $50 billion is the real big deal, they need advanced air defense systems, and ground control systems...

   These are definitely beyond my ability, but I can influence Qatar's ground weapons procurement plan to a certain extent, and this amount is not small. "

  Boss Jin's eyes immediately started to glow when he heard this, he looked at Boss Qiao and said, "What kind of charter is President Qiao preparing?"

  Joga looked at President Jin’s eyes shining, he shook his head with a smile and said: “My funds are limited, so I plan to recruit 3,000 experienced soldiers in Brazil and Colombia to form six battalions.

   I have a guy who retired from the Colombian Lancers under my command. I selected two special forces from it, and the rest were working in Libya.

   Their combat effectiveness is not weak and they are hard-working, and their salary requirements are not high. They are willing to work for me for two thousand a month.

  But let me follow P·B's standards, it is impossible to equip these 3,000 people at one time.

  So I'm going to pull sponsorship...

  You all know the Ugimbert company in Serbia, they will lend me a batch of Mirosh armored vehicles and Lazar armored personnel carriers.

   But their production capacity is not enough, these vehicles are only enough to equip 500 people, that is, a battalion.

  I can find someone to sell these things after I run out, and then pay them.

  I cooperated very well with the Italians in Libya. Their LMV armored vehicles are very easy to use. I have talked to people from their defense group before. They intend to provide me with enough armored vehicles to equip a battalion at a low price..."

  Hearing this, Mr. Jin suddenly said: "Our warriors are also good, and we have a ready-made synthetic battalion project, and we can also sponsor a battalion..."

  He has come to his senses now, Boss Joe intends to use Yemen as a weapons testing ground, and use Qatar's arms purchase project as a bait to invite major arms companies to enter.

  Soldiers are recruited by P·B, if you want to show your face, then sponsor it!

   What Yemen wants is not any high-tech stuff, and Yemen doesn't need any high-tech stuff.

  Armored vehicles, helicopters, artillery, rocket launchers, and the most in-demand squad weapons are all items that can be bid separately.

  P·B released the unmanned airship and gave every soldier a mobile phone to install Tintin, so that they could monitor their status in real time and let them give feedback on their experience at any time.

  If this is done, it will be equivalent to Boss Qiao eating hot pot empty-handed, calling home and eating hot pot.

   And it’s not just these, Mr. Jin has a hunch that Boss Joe is going to do something big...

  Thinking of this, Mr. Jin rubbed his hands excitedly, and said: "This kind of contest is unprecedented, worth it, worth it...

  But Mr. Qiao, the logistics pressure of this IWC Mobile Battalion is enormous.

   How do you think about it? "

   Qiaojia spread his hands and said, "I didn't think much about it, I plan to rent a place in Djibouti and invite interested companies to hold a defense exhibition there.

   Afika and the Middle East across the Red Sea are always hot spots, and these companies are happy to keep the defense show going for a while.

  The progress of the war in Yemen is the best advertisement. Even if you can’t compete with Qatar’s orders, you can always get some orders from other countries.

  It’s actually not difficult. I just called those famous big companies, and they agreed.

   It is impossible for large items such as helicopter rocket launchers to be free, but they are willing to sponsor squad weapons.

   At that time, the big sponsors of each camp can be named...

  I can tell you that the famous Sig Sauer company not only sponsored a battalion of squad weapons, but also cooperated with the triple canopy. At that time, it will send a 12-member special forces team to Yemen to test the next generation of squad weapons from the United States.

  The Beretta company in Italy cooperates with General Motors and is also competing for this project. Their new gun RM227 has also come out. At that time, they will not only sponsor a battalion, but also send a special force team to join in the experiment of the new gun. "

  President Jin heard this, cupped his hands in admiration, and said, "I never thought that you could fight like this!

  If Al Qaeda in Yemen knew that someone was going to greet them like this, I guess they would have surrendered early.

  But if you do this, the logistical pressure is too great! "

  Boss Joe spread his hands and said, "What pressure do I have?

  The fight against Al Qaeda will eventually turn into a public security war except at the beginning, and the consumption of large gadgets will not be too large. In the end, the bulk of the consumption will be the team's weapons and ammunition.

  I prepared a supply ship for each battalion, and the people from each company stayed on the ship as an observation team, and they did the supply work by the way. They might have more motivation than me by then. "

  Mr. Jin cupped his hands in admiration, and said: "Mr. Qiao will leave me a share of the camp. It is best to tell me the location of the exhibition in Djibouti in advance, and I will ask someone to design the booth in advance."

   Qiao Jia waved his hands and said with a smile: "No need to design, I have already arranged for someone to go, you all know Lao Zhu from Giant Infrastructure, he is in charge of the construction of the exhibition.

  Let’s not engage in those fancy things, everyone is the same, with a Syrian style, and the defense exhibition style is as close to actual combat as possible.

   Those who have the ability to fully demonstrate their company in this situation will definitely have a big harvest in the end! "

  This is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to demonstrate in actual combat!

  After the five big brothers nodded, the Al Qaeda in Yemen has actually been sentenced to death. It depends on how the executioner, Boss Joe, does it.

  Equipment export is a business for European and American company management, but it has a different meaning for leaders of large state-owned enterprises like Mr. Jin and Mr. Li.

   Li Weiguo watched Mr. Jin take out a small notebook and started to record. He shook his head slightly, looked at Boss Qiao, and said, "Jackal, is it possible for the pterodactyl to join?"

   Qiaojia heard this, smiled and said: "I don't need this, the Shah only gave 8 billion, of course they will give other assistance.

  You can drag the drone to Djibouti for the exhibition, but let Shah’s people do the specific display.

  The prince soldiers are suitable for this..."

  Li Weiguo heard it, and said with a smile: "Yes, but if you do this, the intensity of the entire war will be raised. Al Qaeda does not have such a strong system, so it may not be able to withstand it...

   I am afraid that they will collapse at the first touch and run away early, and it will be bad if they are anticlimactic. "

   Qiaojia heard this, waved his hands with a smile, and said: "Al-Qaeda has a deep hatred with me, and they know that I have passed, and they can always get sponsors from other places.

  Speaking of conscience, there are many people who love me in this world, but there are also many people who hate me...

  I just do my best, and as for Al Qaeda, I'm sure they'll figure it out..."

  Li Weiguo didn't understand the connotation of Boss Qiao's words, he said with a smile: "I understand...

  In the name of righteousness, raise a powerful soldier, gather the power of all people, and relieve the suffering of the people!

   Jackal, awesome! awesome! "

  Boss Qiao heard this, smiled and cupped his hands, and said, "I'm just a hard worker, and it all depends on everyone's face..."

  ………

   After taking the medicine, I can’t bear it any longer. That’s all for today…

   Please bear with me!

Thanks!

grateful!
