Chapter 67 Two sentences of itching

In the box, the giant chandelier red carpet is decorated with thick and generous decoration, which is a popular decoration of high-end restaurants in this era. The host of the invitation was several leaders of a large arsenal that went to Beijing, including their military representatives. Invited were a director and a director of the Ministry of Ordnance Industry, as well as He Guoxiong, a representative of the Huaqing Army. From the conversation, they have a good personal relationship with each other. Obviously, this was a semi-private banquet.

The banquet was held at two tables, Xiao Li and the other secretaries and drivers sat aside, while Jing Jian was dragged to the main table by He Guoxiong. In his heart, he is a little grateful to He Guoxiong, and it is obvious that he is promoting the backwards. And Jing Jianhuaqing's identity is barely qualified to go to the main table.

However, at such a table, the identity gap is too big, Jing Jian understands it very well, so he takes his ears and does not have his mouth, listens more, eats more, and talks less. After blocking a few glasses of wine for He Guoxiong, he silently hid in the corner, tasting the delicious dishes.

Although these people rarely talk about official business, Jing Jian still quickly understood it from a few words. To put it simply, the Iran-Iraq war broke out, and the two sides fought to the death. Iraq has come to a purchasing group, and the ministry and the military factory want to facilitate this export to earn foreign exchange. Now that they have come to the capital, the friends will get together by the way.

As they drank more, the people talked about the problems they were facing. I have to say that He Guoxiong's introduction just now is very effective, and he has made meritorious contributions on the battlefield, which makes these people a lot less guarded. And that problem is that the Iraqi procurement team has been delayed for a long time, and it has been nearly a month since it came, and it still has not placed an order.

So, several people began to discuss the solution. Some said that the hospitality was not good, some said that the price was too high, and there were ...... who wanted to ask the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for help. Anyway, it's a private occasion, and everyone is gossiping and coming up with their own ideas.

Jing Jian's brows furrowed slightly, and he was used to analyzing the situation naturally. It is obvious that the purchasing group is sincere, otherwise, it would not have stayed for a month at all, and it would have left a long time ago. But if you don't purchase it for a long time, there must be something stuck. A blind man can't touch an elephant, if you want to find out why, then it's time to use means?

Suddenly, Jing Jian felt hot and itchy. It's been a long time since I've done anything like this. But then, he laughed at himself: "Do you still want to be plain and leisurely? You can't help it? You deserve to work hard all your life!"

And the discussion is getting more and more heated, just talking about holding a banquet, and then exploring the tone of the purchasing group.

Jing Jianyi gritted his teeth, it was really itchy and unbearable, and finally couldn't help it: "Go to the Argentine Embassy and ask for someone!"

The voice was not loud, only He Guoxiong and a few people around him heard it. The men immediately showed thoughtful expressions. But in the blink of an eye, it turned into nothingness, and remained silent, and soon spread the word to everyone at the main table. And the people who heard this all pretended to be nothing, and they didn't even glance at Jing Jian's side, still chatting, as if nothing had happened.

Jing Jian picked up the cup in his hand and took a sip. He understood that his purpose had been achieved. Such a desire to cover up proves that they attach great importance to it. As for whether these people can figure it out? That's none of their business, they've already helped anyway, and it's up to them to see what the outcome will be.

In fact, many things can be explained at a glance. Why does the purchase of arms in the Iran-Iraq war have nothing to do with Argentina in South America?

This is to say about the Falklands War two years ago. At that time, the Argentine Air Force was equipped with anti-ship missiles, which inflicted heavy losses on the British Navy. However, at this critical moment, the delivery of the French Exocet missiles that had already been paid for was actually terminated, and the United States, together with Western countries, imposed a military embargo on Argentina.

And why the arms trade is a huge profit? We may all know about other factors, but there is one point that few people may know, and that is -- protection money! If you go to the United States or any other country to purchase arms at a high price, if something happens, then you have to support me internationally and even send troops for me. And this is the most important factor in the procurement of arms by many small and weak countries seeking protection.

However, it was in the Falklands War that Western countries broke their promises. In other words, all the protection money paid by Argentina has been wasted.

Why do you want the Middle Eastern countries to buy at a high price from the United States and the Soviet Union? They already have a "commercial stain" and will probably not come to protect them. In that case, why don't you come to China to buy bargains?

As for the Argentine Embassy, in order to disgust the Western countries, it is estimated that it would be happy to send such a symbolic low-level official.

This is actually a type of psychological warfare in business negotiations. And there are no side effects, in case you guess wrong, it's also a reminder, isn't it?

The small talk continued, and this time it was replaced by Tiannan Haibei. After about ten minutes, it seemed that unintentionally, the director of the Ministry of Ordnance Industry asked his side: "This dish is good, but I don't know how to master the heat?"

The main table was silent for a moment, and everyone looked away, but they pricked up their ears, ready to listen to Jing Jian's answer. And Jing Jian's eyes lit up, if you compare it from the amount of information obtained, this Director Song will definitely far surpass Jing Jian. Since he would ask like this, it has been proved that it is likely that what he just said is the right medicine.

And Director Song raised his own concerns. After all, the intention is too obvious. Diplomacy is no trivial matter, for fear that if the heat is not well controlled, the procurement team will be annoyed, and in the end it will be self-defeating.

Jing Jian smiled slightly, this technique is even simpler. As if he hadn't heard Director Song's words, he smiled at He Guoxiong beside him: "I don't know how the Sino-British negotiations are? Hong Kong must be taken back." ”

Everyone was active again in an instant, and as if nothing had happened, they began to talk and laugh......

During this period, Britain relied on the aftermath of its victory in the Falklands War to retain Hong Kong's colonial status, and continued to make unrealistic demands in negotiations with China. As a result, Hong Kong's prospects are uncertain.

And Jing Jian took advantage of this to let Director Song hint at the procurement group: Actually, we are a trench for you, and we also want to give Western countries a little color. So arms procurement, everything is easy to say. Even outside of procurement, some kind of tacit understanding can be formed. So that you can get additional "giveaways". As for the future? Anyway, it has already given you psychological comfort.

In just two sentences, the current international situation has been taken advantage of. Jing Jian knew in his heart that just relying on such small tactics and tricks to decisively affect important business activities must be a pipe dream. But on the scale of indecision, if you add such a weight, it often reaps miraculous results.
