Mr. A thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay, one discount is one discount, deal done!"
In fact, what Chen Zheng said is absolutely correct, and there is a batch of idle weapons in Central Africa.
That¡¯s because some time ago, before the civil war in Central Africa fully started, the president of the original Central African government personally invited the United States to station troops.
The president of the original government is also smart. What he means is that by inviting the United States to station troops, it will be easy to drag the United States into the water. If the rebel coalition forces attack, Americans can help suppress it.
But how can politicians be fools? Whatever the former president of Central Africa wanted, officials in Washington had already thought of it.
The United States has long wanted to further control Central Africa, so it proposed building roads, but was rejected by the former president of Central Africa. Therefore, in order to increase its influence, the United States deliberately sold a lot of arms to the rebel coalition forces.
The reason why the troops are stationed is because it is difficult to say who will win between the government forces and the coalition forces. It is better to wait and see if the coalition forces are defeated. Even if the coalition forces lose, the United States can continue to maintain or even strengthen its rights and interests in Central Africa.
Unexpectedly, the Allied forces were so powerful that a full-scale civil war broke out very quickly. The United States only verbally condemned it and always remained a bystander.
Moreover, as the war came to an end, in order to avoid the condemnation of other countries in the world, the United States simply withdrew its troops and hurriedly removed its suspicion of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, leaving only a small force of three to four hundred people, known as Responsible for peacekeeping.
As for the remaining batch of weapons and equipment that had not been transported away, Mr. A did have a solution. He initially asked Chen Zheng for a 20% discount, but he just wanted to make more money from Chen Zheng. But even if it is a discount, he will not make much, but he will still make a small amount. He will not miss this business.
"But I can't give you too much at one time. I can sell it to you in batches. How much do you want?" Mr. A asked again.
Chen Zheng thought for a while: "At the beginning, just give me twenty sets of standard US Army trap individual equipment. From now on, we will take our time. Hundreds or even thousands of sets may be needed."
You must know that the individual equipment of the US military does not only include a gun, but covers four major aspects: personal protection, survival support, weapons and equipment, and night vision equipment.
Even one set is enough to arm a soldier to the teeth and is expensive.
Chen Zheng initially asked for twenty sets in order to arm He Jianyi and other Chen Zheng's cronies first, so that they could accompany the medical team and be responsible for escort missions.
When we were in Zimbabwe, all the original security team members of the medical team were shot dead by the rebels, leaving the medical team members without protection.
This time I go to Central Africa. If I have any insights, they will be with me, so I can rest assured along the way.
This batch of equipment must be the best, and it must be as fast as possible. As for the rest, you can take your time. Besides, Ellie's Dragon Gang gang members are all well-armed. In the future, even the mercenaries will be issued with some high-end equipment.
"I'm really afraid that you will continue to ask for hundreds of sets," Mr. A nodded: "Twenty sets is not a big problem. I will contact you later and will get in touch with you soon."
"Okay." Chen Zheng smiled and continued: "Now that we have reached a consensus on some basic issues, let's talk about something more practical. I am here to meet you this time to buy information from you. Yes, you always have to give me some practical and useful information.¡±
Mr. A thinks that this Chen Zheng is really treacherous. He has been in the intelligence business for so long. He always pays first and gives the information later. At worst, he pays with one hand and handes over the information with the other.
Only this Chen Zheng, who hasn¡¯t seen a penny yet, needs to be confident in asking for information.
But for the sake of the $200 million, forget it.
In fact, because Anna had contacted Mr. A a long time ago, Mr. A did come with information to exchange money today, so he stood up and came to the famous British purebred horse that he had just ridden all the way.
From the pocket behind the saddle, he took out a stack of information.
"The former president of Central Africa went into exile, and the rebel leader proclaimed himself the new president and formed a new government. There are several large departments under the president. Among them, mining, energy and water resources belong to the same ministry and are under the jurisdiction of the same minister. The minister is none other than Major Depses," Mr. A said, pointing to the first photo in the pile of information.
The CIA is indeed not a cover-up. Not only does it have a close-up photo of the minister, but the minister's resume is also listed in detail next to it, and even the elementary school where he went to school is clearly stated.
But it was all written in English. Chen Zheng couldn't understand it, so he handed it to Anna.
"Major Depses?" Anna looked at the name on the document and said thoughtfully: "Why does the Minister of Energy of Central Africa have a French name?"
"How do you know this is a French name?" Chen Zheng asked.
"Because the names of various countries in Europe and America have subtle differences. If you understand them, you can tell them at a glance." Anna said slowly.
This is true. For example, although the United States is a country of immigrants and its citizens are a hodgepodge of people from all over the world, you can often tell whether the person is British, German, or French just by looking at their name.
Especially among the French, nobles often have the letter "de" in their names. Translated into Chinese, it is called "µÂ". After the letter, there is the family name.
¡°Just like this Major Depses, this is exactly the case.
Naturally, the French would not come to Central Africa to serve as ministers. Chen Zheng was also curious and motioned Anna to ask Mr. A.
And the answer I got is quite simple.
It turns out that before Central Africa was a French colony.
When the French first came to colonize, most areas in Central Africa still lived like primitive tribes, and many people did not have a decent name.
In order to rule these backward primitive tribes, the French came up with a good method. In fact, it is similar to the method used by foreigners to deal with the Chinese in the past, which is called "using China to control China."
Therefore, some obedient tribes are allowed to serve as managers of the country. If such people were placed in China, they would be called "traitors". Of course, here, they should be called "non-traitors."
Of course, the status of these "non-traitors" is still lower than that of the French, but it is much higher than that of the native Africans. Over time, they also feel that they have a high status, so they imitate the French and give their tribes nobility. surname.
The French colonists at that time regarded them as nothing more than a joke and did not ban them.
Later, colonial rule ended in Central Africa, but such names and surnames were also passed down.
This Major Depses obviously comes from such a tribe.
The Alliance Army is a union of many tribes, so it can be seen from the fact that Depses holds such a high position in the new government that he should be the leader of a tribe, or a close confidant of the tribal leader.
"Some information shows that the tribe of the Central African Minister of Energy, Major Depses, is called the 'Hatu' tribe." Mr. A added: "In the last century, French colonial rule had just ended. There was a war in Central Africa, which was against this tribe. The lowest-level oppressed tribe in the colonial period massacred members of the 'Hatu' tribe. At that time, hundreds of people died. But obviously after these years, The Hatu tribe has grown again."
Chen Zheng nodded. It¡¯s no wonder that there are constant wars between their tribes. If he had been an oppressed tribe and was now free, he would also want to settle the matter.
And with so many tribes in Central Africa, it seems that there is still a long way to go before peace.
Mr. a then continued: "As the new Minister of Energy, Major Depses still has some ideas. The first thing he did after taking office was to cooperate with large companies in other countries and open two domestic projects. It is a relatively large oil field. This is confidential and the information has not been released yet. If you know the news in advance, you should have a lot of room to win the project. "
This was the information Chen Zheng needed, and he couldn't help but nodded.
¡°Otherwise, if the bidding is open, Chen Zheng¡¯s company is a small company that has just been acquired. How can it compare with so many large companies in the world that are famous for their energy industry?
"Just knowing this news does not mean that we can get this project," Chen Zheng smiled: "Mr. A, for our common interests, we still need more help from you."
"Don't worry about this. Depses has a very good relationship with us in the United States. Originally, this project should be cheaper for us in the United States. But since we are cooperating, I will use some means to make this project yours." Mr. a said.
Mr. A has now nakedly begun to betray his motherland for the sake of profit.
"This is the best," Chen Zheng suddenly changed the topic: "But the condition of the China-Africa highway is very bad. It has been in disrepair for a long time. Even if the oil field is opened, it will be difficult to transport resources. Before we met, didn't you say that you Is there a solution? Is there any good solution?¡±
"As I just said, this Major Depses, the department he is in charge of is mining and energy.and the Ministry of Water Resources, which not only manage oil fields but also water transportation. "Mr. A said: "Although there are few roads in Central Africa, there are many rivers. If water transportation can be used, the cost will be reduced by at least seven or eight times. Don't worry about this. If you get this project, I guarantee that Major Depses will be able to open the door to convenience. "
All problems were no longer a problem. Chen Zheng asked again: "But their country is very turbulent. What if I just opened the oil field and their government collapsed and someone else came to power?"
Mr. A smiled: "If your oil field is opened, it is likely to be the economic backbone of Central Africa. Even if the government changes, will they cut off their own money and drive you out? Besides, don't worry, this government Although there are often wars, at least I can guarantee that I will not collapse easily.¡±
By this time, Chen Zheng became more and more convinced that the United States must be behind the war in Central Africa.
? ? ? ? ? Otherwise, how could the new Central African government listen to the Americans so much? Anyone allowed by the Americans to open oil fields can open oil fields.
The United States must have gained many other benefits from this coup. The United States stayed out of the small war. If a major war breaks out again and affects the current government or the fundamental interests of the United States, the United States can directly send troops to In order to protect the safety of employees in their own companies, they helped suppress it.
In fact, the United States has never done anything like this.
But in this way, Chen Zheng can rest assured that no matter how much he invests, it will not be in vain.
¡¡
This meeting with Mr. A can be said to have achieved satisfactory results. When I go to Africa, I can confidently show off my talents.
¡°And we will definitely be able to get more useful information from Mr. A in the future. After all, from now on, within three years after the Chen Zheng Oilfield is opened, Mr. A¡¯s interests will be consistent with Chen Zheng¡¯s.
Chen Zheng is not in a hurry to return to Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe. The medical team is still resting anyway, and the Central African Energy Minister has just taken office and will not implement his plan immediately.
Mr. A will first talk to the Minister of Energy, and then he will not eat.
Therefore, in the next few days, Chen Zheng was still in the hotel in Seychelles, relaxing for nearly a week and did not return to the African continent.
Within these days, Chen Zheng also had a phone call with Bai Rou.
After Chen Zheng arrived in Zimbabwe, he quickly went to the poorest areas of the country. He drove in the vast wilderness and visited many small villages in more than half a month. Not to mention that there was no signal on the mobile phone, it was difficult to find even a landline phone. .
Therefore, Chen Zheng has never contacted Bai Rou. Through this contact, Chen Zheng also heard a lot about what happened in Canghai City.
It turns out that before Chen Zheng left Canghai City, he had just exposed the fact that Liu Dahai and the boss of Dingxin Pharmaceutical paid bribes in a gambling game, which caused huge repercussions in the country, and as a result, Baicao Industry successfully acquired Dingxin Pharmaceutical.
But at this time, Chen Zheng took a boat to sea and left the country.
After nearly a month of continuous fermentation, the impact of the incident has become even greater and far-reaching.
Liu Dahai is in dire straits. The stock prices of all his companies have plummeted, and he has no time to protect himself. Moreover, because he and Chen competed to acquire the shares of One World Pictures Company at a high price, they failed again. All the previous high prices were in vain. , a huge loss.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Today, he has a debt of more than 100 million, and has been found to be involved in illegal competition, huge bribes and other illegal activities in the process of making a fortune. The court has frozen the funds and sealed several companies.
At the same time, the media promoted it overwhelmingly, and the people were scolding. Liu Dahai finally couldn't bear the pressure and committed suicide by jumping off the building!
This news really made Chen Zheng feel a little sad. The former richest man in Canghai City just disappeared and turned into a story.
On the other hand, the national medical shady exposed by Chen Zheng has had an even greater impact!
Naturally, the group of people who were exposed by Chen Zheng as being on the gambling boat were all killed one by one, but the media refused to let it go easily. They launched an extensive investigation, beat up the losers, and found dozens across the country who were receiving kickbacks and forced them to Medicines are close to the size of the hospital officials.
Of course, petty officials are still the main ones.
By retreating and advancing, the popularity of Baicao Industry has reached a higher level, and it has quickly monopolized the national market and become the most powerful pharmaceutical industry in the country.
After introducing these, Bai Rou said: "There is also good news to report to you. Producer Feng is sure to make a new film! But the contract has not been signed yet, because it needs your consent."
It turns out that Feng Guoan is indeed a professional producer, he just has his own way.There were two alternative films to prepare, but the funds were not large. As a result, not long after, he was contacted by a large Hollywood company. Through Feng Guoan's eloquence, he persuaded this large company to invest hundreds of millions of dollars. invest.
The new film is still a kung fu film, and it still requires Chen Zheng and Mei Xi to star. After all, the previous film "Tai Chi" had a huge impact.
The plot is simple. Mei Xi plays Chen Zheng¡¯s girlfriend, who is kidnapped by terrorists while traveling, but Chen Zheng goes to great lengths to save her.
Terrorist dens were eliminated one by one, and each time a den was eliminated, information about the next den was obtained. In the process, we visited eleven countries, mostly in Europe, but also in the Middle East. In the end, Chen Zheng was the one-man power , eliminated more than a hundred people in the terrorist headquarters, and rescued the heroine. The two lived happily ever after.
After listening to Bai Rou¡¯s general introduction, Chen Zheng was sweating. The plots of Hollywood commercial blockbusters are always so retarded.
However, for this kind of entertainment blockbuster, the plot is not important. What is important is Chen Zheng's beautiful kung fu, plus the big scenes, the exquisite pictures shot in eleven countries, plus the continued influence of Chen Zheng's previous film "Tai Chi", it is enough Many people came into the theater to buy tickets.
"Okay, let him sign it. I'll go back when the filming starts." Chen Zheng said.
"Well, there is another thing," Bai Rou continued to report: "Dr. Shen Zhe also contacted me recently. He said that he wanted to invite you to give more lectures at various universities in Europe and wanted to ask you. time schedule.¡±
Chen Zheng has a big career now, and Bai Rou is responsible for all trivial matters.
Therefore, if Shen Zhe wants to make an appointment with Chen, he must go through Bai Rou.
Chen Zheng couldn't help but think that Shen Zhe must have seen that the lecture held at Xianggang University was very effective and aroused widespread controversy in society. He could indeed increase the number of such lectures and even have them in Europe for fun.
After thinking about it, Chen Zheng said: "After the filming of the next movie starts, won't it also have to be shot extensively in Europe? Anyway, I have to go once, so the time when Shen Zhe wants to invite me to give a lecture in Europe will be set at the same time. The schedule is fixed, so that I can take care of everything and kill two birds with one stone without affecting my other time. "
Calculating the time, it will take a few months to go to Europe at the earliest. I have already negotiated preliminary contracts for major facilities in Africa, and then I can hand them over to Zhou Zhili to operate.
At that time, I will have nothing else to do in Africa. As for the medical team, if it is not time for the medical team to return to China, I can take a leave at any time and fly away as long as it is in a safe country and region.
"Okay, then I will start arranging the time schedule according to what you said. When you are in a developed city in Africa, I will contact you more and send you the schedule." Bai Rou said.
