Military industrial hegemony

Chapter 862 A More Generous Enemy

The negotiations with Mike and the others have finally come to an end. The two parties have reached an agreement on the price, related conditions, method, time, and related terms.This time, the order will reach 500 million US dollars, and the payment will be made in installments. Within one year from the date of signing the contract, Jiang Chen and the others will provide them with equipment for five regiments in three installments.As for other subsidiary clauses, this is a matter of diplomacy.Jiang Chen and the others don't need to take care of it. Someone will take care of it.For example, Jiang Chen and the others are not allowed to resell the weapons and equipment of Mike and the others. If such a thing happens, we will not bear relevant responsibilities.In addition, a penalty of twice the transaction price of the entire contract will be imposed according to the breach of contract, as well as other related penalties.Of course, this rule is not set by us, but a rule of general trade in the world, in order to prevent these weapons from being resold or lost and spread, affecting regional and international security.

The contract between the two parties has actually been negotiated and finalized, and Jiang Chen and Mike signed each other.But this is just a commercial contract between Jiang Chen and his company and the B17 factory, there is another contract besides this.That is the arms sales contract between countries, which needs to be signed by the delegation leader and Mike under the witness of the exhibition organizing committee.Of course, Jiang Chen and the others don't need to care about this, they just need to watch the ceremony when the time comes.Next, Jiang Chen and the others are going to meet with Mike and their rivals, that is, neighboring countries that have conflicts with them.The leader who came to negotiate with Jiang Chen and the others was a white man named Wynn, in his 30s, well dressed, with the shadow of a nobleman from Europe.Jiang Chen was very curious, how could such a well-dressed person be mixed with a group of black Africans.After asking, I found out that they stayed there during the colonial period, and told Jiang Chen that there are actually a lot of white people in Africa, not all black people as those reports said.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then got to the point.And this Wynn spoke to Jiang Chen first with a very authentic British accent: "Jiang, we want to know the list of weapons and equipment transactions between you and that damn Mike, so that we can judge and evaluate them."

Jiang Chen put down his coffee, shook his head and smiled, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wynn, I think you should understand the rules. We have neither the right nor the obligation to provide and disclose other customers' transaction information to you."

"No, no, Jiang, we have to know the specific content of the transaction, otherwise we won't be able to judge what equipment we should buy to deal with them." Wynn said dissatisfied.

"Sorry, Mr. Wynn, please respect our professional ethics. In addition, I believe that your intelligence agencies are not raising a group of idlers who can only eat. You should have obtained such information long ago." Jiang Chen looked at Wynn and smiled and said this time.

Wynn waved his hand and said: "Mr. Jiang, please pay attention to your words. Our intelligence agency has already provided us with a specific list. I just want you to verify the situation now."

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and said: "Then I suggest that you should trust the investigation results of your intelligence agencies, instead of listening to me, an outsider, and making blind judgments."

"Okay, Jiang, let's not discuss this issue anymore, I believe this is fruitless." Huai En said to Jiang Chen seriously: "I want to know the weapons and equipment of the five regiments that damn Mike and the others bought. What is included, and when will you deliver the goods?"

Jiang Chen shook his head and said, "Everything you see, they will systematically change into five regiments. As for the specific content, it depends on your own evaluation and understanding. It is impossible for me to tell you. As for when to hand over Goods, sorry, this is a trade secret."

After listening to Jiang Chen's words, Huai En thought for a moment and said to Jiang Chen, "If we buy equipment, when will you be able to deliver it to us?"

"This depends on the amount of equipment you buy, the availability of funds, and the type of equipment you want to buy. Finally, you need to sort them. You know there must be a first-come, first-served one." Jiang Jiang Chen looked at Wynn and replied, if you want to trick him, you're still young.

Hearing Jiang Chen's answer, Wynn frowned, and then said to Jiang Chen: "Mr. Jiang, we request that no matter when Mike's bastard's weapons and equipment will be delivered, our equipment must arrive half a month earlier than theirs. .”

Jiang Chen shook his head and said: "I can't guarantee this, and you have to understand that Mike and the others came before you, so you need to queue up. And we are fair trade, adopt the principle of freedom, you can't order us, I hope you can understand this point."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, my wording just now was a bit inappropriate. But you should understand that your deal has broken the balance between regions, which is not conducive to the peace and development of this region." Huai En changed his words, but Jiang Chen didn't see any apology on his face.

Regarding this, Jiang Chen can say that he is very disgusted in his heart, which may be influenced by Mike's personal feelings.After all, he is not a diplomat or a politician, and he cannot calm down his personal emotions.But on the surface, Jiang Chen still maintained a professional state, and he said to Wynn: "Mr. Wynn, every country in the world has the right to purchase relevant defensive weapons, and our transaction does not violate the relevant laws and regulations. International laws and codes of conduct. Also, the fact that we are able to share this information with you shows that we are neutral. If you insist, I don't think it is necessary for our talks to continue. You know, I am very Busy, there are still many customers waiting."

Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Wynn and the others on the opposite side were a little anxious, and Wynn said to Jiang Chen quickly: "Jiang, I didn't mean to accuse you. Please believe that what I just said was absolutely not malicious. Well, this is the end of this topic, so let's discuss the specific content of cooperation. Jiang, considering that the other party has just purchased five regiments of weapons and equipment from you, in order to be able to fight against them and regain our previously occupied territory by them , we have decided to buy equipment for six regiments. Of course, it also includes the truck guns you produced. We are going to buy a regiment and an integrated artillery system developed and produced by you. We will buy a battalion, but we don’t know all the equipment. How long will it take you to deliver."

After Jiang Chen listened to what Wynn said, he looked at the relevant figures they provided, then looked up at Wynn with some uncertainty and said, "Mr. Wynn, are you sure you have taken this order correctly? Are all the numbers correct?"

Seeing Jiang Chen's surprised look, Wynn said with satisfaction: "Jiang, don't be surprised, we are not comparable to primitive people like Mike and the others. In order to regain what we lost, this time we used the foreign exchange reserves in Europe You don’t have to worry about payment, we can even pay you 60.00% deposit in advance, I just hope you can deliver the goods as soon as possible.”
