Back in September, Zhu Zongzhi's group of people in the Middle East had been divided into two groups. In the name of Today's Media, in addition to establishing news services in these two countries, one group went to Iraq and the other group went to Iran. Zhu Zongzhi led The team went to Iran, and they had connections with the shipping king. The Iraqi team could easily meet with the upper management. Perhaps for the sake of the shipping king, they did not make it difficult for them. There was no objection to their staying in Iraq to establish the Today Media Service. , but was given a residency.

But things were not so easy in Iran. Through some other channels, Zhu Zongzhi also met the Ministry of National Defense here, but due to the system here, they were put under house arrest.

The trend of history will not change because of these two teams. On September 9, Iraq launched a full-scale offensive. In the early days of the war, Iraq had an overall advantage. Later, it was resisted by Iran and launched a counterattack. This was a fight. Eight years of war between Iraq and Iraq.

When the Iran-Iraq war broke out, Today's Media got first-hand information. On the same day, media related to Today's Media rushed to report on the origins of the war and the history of the two countries. The details were very detailed, and other countries also reprinted them. Of course, you have to pay for information from Today's Media. This time, it established Today's Media's position in Hong Kong.

This war also made a great contribution to Li Bu's cashing out of gold. The skyrocketing price of gold last year was related to the Iranian revolution, and this time it was related to the Iran-Iraq war.

As the saying goes, once the cannon is fired, there is ten thousand taels of gold. This not only means that some people make war fortunes, but also shows that war requires astronomical amounts of property. When both sides saw the loss of weapons, heartache and heartache, both sides suddenly thought of the coming few A reporter from Hong Kong.

They once hinted that they could help them contact some cheap weapons. The Iraqi side was easy to talk to and directly asked them to build relationships and transport weapons for them. Not to mention artillery, machine guns and ammunition, just as many aircraft and tanks as they wanted, and nothing else. It’s so cheap, half the price of Americana.The United Nations General Assembly began to impose an arms embargo on Iran and Iraq.

The team from Iraq immediately reported the news to Xiangjiang, and Xiangjiang immediately took action. When these salesmen set out for the Middle East, Xiangjiang also sent a team to the mainland to negotiate the business. Li Bu did not want to How much profit can be gained from this? One is to train these new people and establish a press office in Iran and Iraq; the other is to build relationships with the mainland military industry. In the future, they will go out to do business, otherwise how will they support the military industry? Xiangjiang soon received news that Iran was ordering a large amount of equipment, and they happened to deal with it together.

……

According to what Zhu Zongzhi later reported to Li Bu, Xiangjiang gave a deposit of US$[-] million at that time, which solved many problems on the mainland, especially the cooperation with Dai Ying.

When the first batch of equipment was transported to Iraq through a third-party country, there was also a batch of supplies that came with the weapons. Pacific Industrial took the opportunity to sell many goods to Iraq at a par price, which was only [-]% more expensive than normal. However, this was also higher than the normal price. It is cheap for them to import from other channels. I heard that people from Today Media are treated very well in these two places. Many news are said to be exclusive, making Today News Agency famous in one battle.

As for why America did not stop this equipment transaction, there is a reason. In order to balance the Middle East, America wanted to transport equipment to the weaker party, but was found out. There were many wrangling things in the middle, and later indirectly from The mainland side made a lot of money, so naturally they turned a blind eye.

As for the large-scale import of weapons from the mainland, which has not yet established diplomatic relations, it should also be related to the Iran-Iraq war. After all, the weapons of the mainland have also been proven in the war.

As for not being advanced enough, it doesn’t matter. It’s practical, powerful, and very cheap, so it’s worth buying.

……

As for the profit distribution between Li Bu and mainland China?It only needs raw materials with corresponding prices to be deducted. That large amount of investment requires a large supply of raw materials. Naturally, this is a good deal. It not only provides many jobs for the mainland and increases the income of many families, but this At that time, workers' wages were only a few dozen yuan, still in Shanghai, and in other places across the country, it was even less, even if it had increased a lot, it was just over 100 yuan a month.

With a large amount of cheap labor, production costs are naturally very low. For example, compared with Xiangjiang, Shanghai and Shanghai are only a little more than one-tenth of Xiangjiang.

……

When the first Holliday supermarket opened, thousands of products purchased with the assistance of Pan American Foreign Trade appeared on the shelves. When some flyers appeared in the hands of customers, the same products, with larger packaging and weight, were even cheaper. 10%, this is very attractive. If you pick up the promotional poster and go shopping on the same day, you can also get a small gift of one dollar. The supermarket provides after-sales service, but does not provide unreasonable returns. The explanation given by the supermarket is that profit Very low. These products are purchased from overseas, and long-distance shipping is too expensive. With Wal-Mart providing various support behind the scenes, Holliday has avoided many pitfalls.

Now that inflation is high in Europe and the United States, such a cheap supermarket suddenly appeared, and business is very booming. Wal-Mart held a board meeting the next day, which gave them a revelation. If inflation does not come down now, it is a good period for the retail industry. Cheap goods, as long as they are of good quality. No problem, you will win the favor of customers.

Many directors felt that Pacific Rim should not have been allowed to invest in the first place. Some people thought that the investment was too little. In short, other directors had a complicated mentality of losing hundreds of millions. Looking at the representatives of Pacific Rim, their eyes were filled with various emotions.

"Our topic at this board meeting is to expand the scale of Holaday. We think this model is quite successful and we need to increase investment. Let's vote on this proposal now."

"I have a suggestion, why not merge Holaday into Wal-Mart." A director's suggestion caused the conference room to fall silent.

The other directors looked at each other and communicated with their eyes; this proposal is very Wall Street. If the Wharton family did not hold a very large share of the shares, it might be controlled by this group of people. If this proposal is passed, it will be very detrimental to Pacific Rim Fund. After this incident spreads, it will be very detrimental to the reputation of the Wharton family. If they want to have a good reputation, they will have to spend a lot of money.

Old Walton, who was sitting in the first place, said: "Don't mention the acquisition again. Holliday is a very important part of us. Walmart will increase its investment in Holliday. If funds are needed, the board of directors can provide a long-term interest-free loan."

"Dear Mr. Wharton, your wisdom will make Wal-Mart great forever." The representative of Pacific Rim immediately sent a sincere flattery.

The other directors immediately began to praise it respectfully, and the director who just proposed to merge with Holaday seemed to have forgotten what he just said.
