Chapter 1290: Arms companies make huge profits!
Li Jun returned from Moscow for about a week, and quietly flew back to Moscow.
This time, the financial systems of East and West Germany merged, and the Reich Group made a profit of nearly 50 billion U.S. dollars. In the early 1990s, this was definitely a lot of money.
The most important thing is that the Imperial Group did not pay much price.
After Li Jun left Xiangjiang and returned to Moscow.
Yang Ming has been paying attention to another major event that is about to happen.
Iraq invades Kuwait.
Historically, Yang Ming still remembered this news very clearly.
Judging from the current international news, Iraq is likely to invade Kuwait.
Why is that?
In fact, this is a serious problem in Iraq's own economy.
In addition, this is also a way for Iraq to divert internal conflicts.
The reason why Yang Ming paid attention was precisely related to his establishment of an arms company.
Last year, Yang Ming had established an independent arms company, but in fact, he had been planning it for a long time. Today, a large amount of second-hand arms are purchased from Soviet Union and the alliance countries.
Among them, except for the first batch of arms, such as those warships, Yang Ming sold them at home and abroad.
There is also an endless supply of munitions.
Yang Ming has already set his sights on the big dogs in the Middle East.
Among them, Kuwait was the first.
Why Kuwait was the first.
Because it has a very obvious enemy.
Iraq.
According to Kuwait's strength, if there is no external intervention, it is impossible to be Iraq's opponent. In fact, it is the same.
Iraq easily captured Kuwait.
However, Kuwait has Country M behind it, which means that Iraq will eventually lose.
However, during this period, especially from the end of last year to the first half of this year, there have been constant frictions between Iraq and Kuwait. In addition to Iraq's own problems, Iraq has also set its sights on the fat sheep of Kuwait.
The reason why the Gulf region affects the nerves of Country M and many other countries is mainly because the region is extremely rich in oil and natural gas resources.
As of January 1990, the Gulf's proven oil reserves were 1 billion barrels, accounting for 6517% of the world's proven oil reserves (10015 billion barrels), and its natural gas reserves were 65 trillion cubic meters, accounting for 24% of the world's total natural gas resources.
日产石油约1450万桶,约占世界石油日产量(6360万桶)的23%;每天出口石油约1200万桶,约占世界石油日出口量(2800万桶)的43%。
The five major oil-producing countries in the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates) are all in the Gulf region.
Of the world's 20 largest oil fields, 11 are in the Gulf. The oil produced in the Gulf is mainly for export. A considerable part of the oil imported by the United States, Western Europe, and Japan comes from the Gulf region.
According to the energy information statistics of Country M, in the first quarter of 1990, Country M's daily net oil import volume was 766.1 million barrels, of which 206.4 million barrels came from the Gulf region, accounting for 26.9%; Western Europe imported 823.5 million barrels of oil daily, of which 427.6 million barrels were imported from the Gulf region. million barrels, accounting for 51.9%; Japan imported 548 million barrels of oil daily, of which 354 million barrels were imported from the Gulf region, accounting for 64.6%.
Oil is the "blood" of economic development in today's world, and it is also the driving force of modern armies. If Iraq annexes Kuwait and then occupies Saudi Arabia, it will be able to control more than half of the world's oil resources, which will be like blocking the throats of major Western industrial countries.
In other words, although Kuwait is small, it is rich in oil and natural gas resources.
It is Iraq that has its eyes on Kuwait, a fat sheep. In addition to hoping to swallow Kuwait to solve its own losses and economic crisis caused by the Iran-Iraq war, it also wants to divert Iraq's own domestic conflicts.
However, Iraq did not know that it had to face the entire world.
In this case, even if the kuwait has just been swallowed, it will soon be vomited out.
Yang Ming was watching the news there. Lin Xiuzhi, He Chaoluo, Alina, Yingla and others on the side all knew that the boss had been paying attention to international news recently.
Especially news about the Middle East.
They know about the independent arms companies under the Imperial Group.
However, not many people in Xiangjiang know about Imperial Group, an independent arms company.
This time, the Imperial Group sold a large amount of Sulian's second-hand arms to Kuwait, a big dog owner. In fact, it actually made a lot of profits.
Although before this, Kuwait was also very rich. The main arms of its army were partly from M country and partly from Soviet Union. However, now, under the promotion and brainwashing of the arms company under the Imperial Group, they have bought a large number of these second-hand Soviet Union weapons. arms.
The most important thing is that it is much cheaper than the arms they originally bought.
In addition, the arms company under the Imperial Group provided Kuwait with a lot of useful information, which also gained the trust of the Kuwait royal family.
In other words, since the independent arms company was officially established last year, it has probably made several billion dollars now.
It seems like I made a lot of money.
However, compared with the game companies under the Empire Group, it is still far behind.
"Sir, do you think Iraq will definitely attack Kuwait?" Yingla asked.
Historically, Yingla was also a very powerful female politician.
However, she could not completely see that Iraq would definitely attack Kuwait.
"It's inevitable."
In fact, from the current news information and the information fed back to Yang Ming from the information department of the arms company, Yang Ming also knew that Iraq was already making preparations.
It now appears that the two sides are negotiating.
However, a large number of Iraqi troops are now present on the Kuwait border.
On the other hand, Iraq is also preparing a large amount of arms.
"Wouldn't that affect global crude oil?" Yingla reacted immediately.
"This is inevitable."
Yingla could think of this, and Yang Ming knew that the other party had learned a lot from him.
In fact, last year, Yang Ming asked the tankers of his First Shipping Group to buy a large amount of crude oil from the Middle East and other countries, and then put the crude oil in Huicheng.
In the industrial zone of Huicheng, the Imperial Group has hoarded a large amount of crude oil.
In fact, global crude oil prices have risen a lot compared to last year.
When Iraq officially invaded Kuwait, global crude oil was affected by the Kuwait war. The global crude oil price will continue to be affected, and it will not recover until the Middle East crude oil is supplied normally.
In fact, this is a really big gain for Imperial Group.
In addition to a large amount of Soviet second-hand arms sold to Kuwait, some arms were also sold to Iraq through other channels.
There is also crude oil, which Imperial Group can sell to the world.
In addition, it is crude oil futures, which also brings large profits to Imperial Group.
