King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 794 - 794 722 Heartfelt Chat
794: Chapter 722: Heartfelt Chat 794: Chapter 722: Heartfelt Chat Joe Ga had a video call with Qiao Liang and patiently explained his understanding of the dostic situation, as well as their family’s expectations of their own brothers.
He ticulously explained the risks of naval vessel trade to Qiao Liang, as well as ways to circumvent obstacles.
Qiao Liang had already made significant progress in international trade, but international trade cannot avoid international politics.
He needed to delve deeper into it, to understand the complex gas within.
By using Jialiang Trading’s current advantageous position, they should try to maximize influence as much as possible, to extend Jialiang Trading’s lifecycle as long as possible.
The two brothers couldn’t compare to the people on Forbes, but they definitely had enough money.
At this stage, just thinking about making money was useless, turning power into profit through influence was what held value and aning.
Joe Ga broke down and explained the demands of various parties to Qiao Liang in detail, and only after his younger brother had fully understood, did Joe Ga then tell him to be nicer to Tong Tong…
She was trying to start a tourism services company, which was contributing to his big brother’s business, not causing trouble.
If you can’t support her, at least don’t badmouth Tong Tong in front of your future father-in-law; that’s just inhumane.
If Tong Tong likes to play, let her be.
What’s wrong with developing a business while having fun on the side?
As long as it’s in Africa, Big Boss Qiao can definitely cover for her!
Qiao Liang had no way to explain to his own brother that he couldn’t do without Tong Tong!
Without that girl to distract him and ease his pressure, he, a science student who didn’t want to bully or dominate by brute force, simply exchanging goods in repetitive labor, wouldn’t even find pleasure in making money.
Without Tong Tong’s jests and jokes, Qiao Liang felt he would eventually go mad from the affairs of Jialiang Trading Company.
Now, Qiao Liang needed multiple departnts’ approvals for international travel.
The last ti he went to Arica, several bigwigs with intimidating titles had t with him to “encourage” him, but in reality, none of them wanted him to leave the country.
Qiao Liang was the kind of person who disliked causing trouble for others.
If he couldn’t leave by himself, naturally he didn’t want Tong Tong to run around the world recklessly…
Qiao Liang’s thoughts were simple; if you want to have fun, you have to bring along.
The situation is complicated these days, but it will be much better for us to travel together a few years from now.
But now that his elder brother had spoken up, Qiao Liang had to unbind Tong Tong, even if reluctantly, and let her make a tour of Africa.
Seeing Qiao Liang on the other end of the line reluctantly agreeing, Joe Ga laughed and told him to relax a bit; if the pressure was indeed too great, then he should find sothing he liked to do, or even causing so trouble wasn’t out of the question.
This honest kid was sitting on imnse power derived from huge procurent deals; how could he not flex it a bit?
Without giving others the chance to clean up after you, how can they engage with you deeply?
You need to be obedient, but not too obedient!
You should cooperate, but don’t let others think you’re spineless!
With Joe Ga’s current perspective, he knew very well that Qiao Liang needed to stir up trouble occasionally, to force the real power players to co out and clean up the ss.
Only that would allow the influence constrained at higher levels to spread downwards, allowing Jialiang Trading to step up a level.
This was similar to so bosses liking to hang photos with VIPs in their offices.
Given Qiao Liang’s current status, it would be foolish to boast about his connections with certain individuals.
It’s smarter to make a few sses, cause so trouble, and let those bigwigs personally co forward to greet him, thus spreading his influence more quickly.
After you owe soone a favor, that is when true back-and-forth begins!
Qiao Liang was still too honest, but Joe Ga believed his younger brother would eventually understand, and even if he moved beyond his brother’s shadow, he would be able to achieve his own entrepreneurial dreams.
After ending the call with his younger brother, Joe Ga did not imdiately go to see Prince Tahnoon.
Joe Ga had shifted his focus from the 056 to the far more expensive 055 destroyer; approaching Prince Tahnoon about such a big issue was pointless.
Once the prince was having fun, Joe Ga would send word through his family elders, then Mr.
Qiao would personally visit them for a discussion.
If the 055 deal could be set up, it would follow naturally for them to purchase a couple more 056 vessels.
Then, the retrofit contracts for the 056 could even make the French happy; the benefits abounded.
Mr.
Qiao’s relationship with China would sooner or later catch the attention of Arica and France.
Arica would be pleased to see him “selling out” through the 055 deal, demonstrating his proper alignnt; this was likely sothing everyone would want to see.
The prince’s business could wait for now, but it was ti to talk to the ‘Professor.’
With Northern Industry eager to enter the low-end arms trade market, Joe Ga needed to discuss the division of interests with the ‘Professor.’
He had grown to his current stature with Seville’s support; it was unrealistic to suddenly drop Seville.
Knowing the situation, Northern Industry had found a point of entry: partnering with Mr.
Qiao to build a shipyard specializing in patrol boats suitable for Congo’s needs, as well as the most basic river freighters.
This was a sure-fire profitable deal.
Patrol boats were virtually worthless in Chinese hands, just eting Mr.
Qiao’s personal needs was enough.
Introducing several inexpensive, low-end freighters afterward, that’s where the real money was.
Mr.
Qiao thought a cent shell plus a diesel engine would make the kind of boats that fit with Congo’s national conditions.
Even if they couldn’t sell the boats, they could tempt the Congolese elites to invest in a freight company.
With the promise of profits, they would certainly be willing to invest governnt money from the Congo to improve the trading environnt, as more frequent trade ans more profit for the shipping company.
“`
Nevertheless, even with this, the entry of Northern Industry would still impact Yuginebert Company.
Not to ntion other aspects, just the light arms alone, Northern Industry’s products are cheaper and of better quality compared to those from Seville.
This matter must be carefully weighed, otherwise the ‘Professor’s position will be difficult.
Joe Ga searched around and finally found the ‘Professor’ on the drawbridge…
The ‘Professor’ showed no interest in the performances for the guests; he sat in his wheelchair, pushed by Valentina on the drawbridge, seeking tranquility while enjoying the scenery.
As he passed the bustling crowd, Joe Ga saw Jacques and Gino, carrying large packs like seasoned drug peddlers, surreptitiously peddling alcoholic beverages in the crowd.
A few ters away, Joe Ga could hear Charlene grinding her teeth in fury and Briella’s frustrated wails of wanting to join in but not knowing how…
He decisively kept his distance from that woman, circumventing the Princess’s aura of murderous intent, and silently made his way onto the drawbridge to reach the ‘Professor’s side.
The ‘Professor’ appeared to be in a good mood, not even upset when Joe Ga inford him of the potential competition entering the market.
Looking at the slightly worried Joe Ga, the ‘Professor’ said, “Hu Lang, you have helped enough.
You alone have propped up half of Seville’s arms exports, and now you are seeking more channels; no one is entitled to say anything.”
As the ‘Professor’ saw Joe Ga shaking his head with a smile, he too started laughing and said, “Hu Lang, the profit margins on light weapons are very low, and you have helped us develop new markets and custors in the Middle East.
Giving up a portion of the market share in Afrika might actually not be a bad thing for us.
When I was in the hospital, soone in the company suggested increasing the production line of light weapons.
They asked for my opinion, but I rejected their proposal.
I feel that, rather than putting effort into these low-profit, low value-added goods, it’s better to delve deeper into the field of armored vehicles and self-propelled artillery.
Your use of the ‘Nora’ self-propelled howitzer has attracted widespread attention; people from Tian Peng Company have gotten in touch with through Eric…
They are keen to enter the ‘Nora’ self-propelled howitzer into the United States’ procurent bidding process for replacing self-propelled howitzers.
Eric told we have a great chance of success!
Once we have the Aricans’ approval, along with your verification through actual combat, the sales of ‘Nora’ will surely make significant progress.
Hu Lang, all this is brought about by you!
If you’re worried that the entry of Northern Industry into Congo will affect , then rest assured!
From the perspective of a friend, finding a stronger supplier will sober up so people in Yuginebert Company.”
The ‘Professor’s understanding was gratifying to Joe Ga; this fellow was an honest man, yet he had been deeply wounded by Yuginebert’s cutthroat maneuvers.
In the past, he had been striving to maintain the company’s interests; now, he had started to think for himself…
Pushing ‘Nora’ into Arica’s military purchasing plan could propel his status in the company to soar significantly.
With competitors around, his excellent relationship with Joe Ga would make him even more important.
Now he stayed in Afrika instead of returning, partly to heal and partly to indirectly express his dissatisfaction and to show those people what the company would be like without him.
Once those higher-ups have a clear realization, it would reduce resistance when the ‘Professor’ seeks vengeance upon his return.
This incident not only terrified the ‘Professor’ but also hardened his heart.
He dare not imagine what would happen to his wife and daughter if he died?
Now, he just wanted to leverage Joe Ga’s help to drag out those who frad him and eradicate them.
This was not only revenge but also a deterrence!
Joe Ga understood and nodded, saying, “In that case, I’ll ask the Belgrade Group to involve you in the Griffin-1 fighter aircraft project.
Andre’s fighter jet 4S store is almost ready.
After a few more months of fine-tuning in Iraq, they will be able to start operations in Sangha Town.
I will establish your absolute dominant position in the sales of key products such as ‘Milos’, ‘Griffin’, and ‘Nora’!
No matter who your competitors are, let’s take them down rrily; I’d like to see who dares to cross in Seville!”
The ‘Professor’ nodded gratefully after listening, then hesitated for a mont before saying, “Hu Lang, could you help market the Lazar-3 armored vehicle?
My team and I have made comprehensive improvents to it.
It’s a good vehicle; it deserves to shine wherever it’s needed!”
Joe Ga was stunned for a mont, then shook his head with a chuckle and said, “Unfortunately, the road transport in Central Africa and Congo is too poor, otherwise the Lazar-3 could really shine.”
As Joe Ga saw the ‘Professor’s eager look, he hesitated and then said, “I’ll try!
There’s an Arican funding so tribes trying to start a war, and there are signs of a civil war in Ethiopia.
I’ve been quite busy these days, but after a while, I will discuss with a few in Central Afrika and then pull in France’s support to see if we can form a joint air force so everyone can help maintain the fighter jets.
Believe it or not, I now have four F-16s ‘gifted’ by Turkey, two L-159s taken as paynt in kind from Iraq, and two Su-25s of the sa nature.
P·B can’t afford to maintain these money-eating machines; I need soone to help share the burden.
At that ti, I’ll ask the Ethiopians if they’re interested, make friends with them first, then see if they’re interested in Lazar-3.
Actually, the reputation of those initial 100 Lazar-3s is very good; it’s just that these paupers, apart from eagerly fleecing the African Union, would rather die than pay out of their own pockets.
The situation in Ethiopia is now more favorable for us; there should be hope.”
