The group stayed at CD for one night and left for Beijing the next day.

After all, the injuries of the two were not very serious, mainly skin and flesh injuries, plus a little injury to the muscles and bones.

Officials who have no concept of the nature of the car accident can make up for it by themselves: in the world of chicken, this kind of situation of driving a jeep to 60 yards and rolling on its side for half a circle when crossing the slope is not a problem at all, and even blood will not fall in the game.

The real world will shed some blood.

And in terms of results, this small car accident also saved Gu Biao the trouble of spending energy to cover up why Tiffany has been "unwell" recently-

Of course, this is only a reverse extrapolation from the result, in fact, of course, Gu Biao doesn't want to suffer from this kind of flesh and skin, and his backhand preparations have already been prepared. This little accident once again turned his advance preparation into a battle of wits and courage with the air.

After returning to the capital, Gu Biao endured the pain and accompanied Princess Kelly and Tiffany carefully, because of Tiffany's injury, the princess told her to rest and not go out, so the travel itinerary in the next few days was canceled, and at most only some indoor fun was arranged.

Gu Biao took the opportunity to get out, and went back to work the next day with a bandage on his arm. He had already taken three or four days off for this group of foreign guests, which was a bit unusual.

Every night after work, I take time to visit Tiffany, talk with her and play some games, and stabilize her mood by the way.

……

When he arrived at the unit, Gu Biao's appearance was immediately watched by his colleagues.

"Xiao Gu, you are injured at work, and you are so injured to accompany foreign guests. Director Bao teased as soon as he saw him.

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, some foreign guests don't listen to persuasion, they haven't seen the prairie, and they can't stop riding a horse, and I fell off the horse. ”

Gu Biao's external clarification caliber is obviously designed.

When he had an accident with Tiffany that day, there was no third party present at all, and it was an inaccessible prairie. Gu Biao was very happy to lose money for the car, so he blocked the mouth of the post director and dragged the car to Dianzhen to repair it, and there would be no bitter master.

And Princess Kelly also realized that the matter of "daughter drag racing" was not good to say, and in order to cover up the ugliness, she agreed with Gu Biao's statement, and claimed that she was injured by falling from a horse.

Anyway, if you fall off a horse at high speed, the injury will definitely not be less serious than a car accident, and the similarity between the two is extremely high.

Therefore, Gu Biao's remarks were not doubted by his colleagues at all.

Director Bao asked with concern: "Then you have worked so hard, have you gained anything? I heard that the director of the cultural BU's foreign liaison has taken away the guest of honor? Is he a great Italian director? If it is a foreign guest in the literary and artistic circles, we can't work so hard to curry favor with the Foreign Investment Commission." ”

"Hey, don't talk about it, I just wanted to talk to them about some business cooperation, but when I was injured, I didn't have much chance to speak, so I had to maintain the relationship first and act at the opportunity. Gu Biao looked helpless.

"Business cooperation, what kind of business cooperation, the above didn't put us on the task, you kid don't make your own decisions!" Director Bao became nervous when he heard this.

The affairs of officialdom are the most intolerant of subjective initiative, and he is really afraid that Gu Biao, this kid, will be young and vigorous and blind to cause trouble.

Gu Biao: "Don't worry, am I this kind of person, Uncle Bao, I know in my heart, I will pave the way for the opportunity first, and whether I want to seize it when the time comes, it all depends on the leader." We must always make the heat seven or eighty percent, so that we can ask the leader for instructions, otherwise there is nothing to do, and the leader's feelings will be wasted. ”

"Then tell me what ideas and potential opportunities you have. "Director Bao has just finished the matter at hand, but he is not in a hurry, and is willing to listen to Gu Fu's beep.

Gu Biao: "That's the case, I made that friend, and I have some connections in Monaco - Uncle Bao, you should also know that Monaco is often used as a white glove for the French in the world, just like Huo Ye who called Xiangjiang as the chief, we are embarrassed to come forward to sell things, and let the Monegasques be a second-class dealer." ”

Director Bao couldn't hold back his old face when he heard this, and coughed lightly: "It's like this, it's not what you said, be cautious, be cautious." ”

"Aren't we talking behind closed doors in the office, I'm here to make it easier for you to understand. Gu Biao defended his tone, "This friend of mine has an import and export shipping company in Monaco, and I am thinking that they have so many popular customer relationships in the international market, so we don't have to use it in vain."

Isn't the Ministry of Ordnance Industry currently imitating several models similar to the quality and positioning of French products? If we open up the joints, let the family have something to do with it, and make it clear to the customer that buying real and fake goods is mixed, wouldn't it also open an opening for our counterfeit and shoddy arms? ”

"Arms and anyone willing to buy fakes? Oh, I mean imitations. Impossible, right?" Director Bao was directly shocked.

Gu Biao analyzed step by step: "How is it impossible, I have been out running a lot, and I have also been to Iraq, so I can see it clearly - American goods are on average four or five times more expensive than Soviet goods in the international market, and French goods are twice as expensive as Soviet goods with the same performance."

As for comparing with our things, the gap is even farther, the French sell a flying fish for 200,000 US dollars, our imitation performance is almost 50,000 US dollars internationally, and the people in the Ministry of Ordnance Industry are going to wake up with laughter.

But have you ever thought about why so many countries would do this wronged and buy expensive things from the United States? Do they really want the American weapons themselves?"

Gu Biao said that American weapons are four or five times more expensive than Soviet goods of the same performance, and this is still calculated according to the strong official exchange rate of the Soviet Union today, and if the real black market exchange rate is used, Soviet goods will only be cheaper - in history, after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the stabilization of the situation, American goods are on average 12 times more expensive than Russian equipment.

And it should be noted that this figure is the price "after the situation has stabilized", and the stock of cabbage that was lost due to the chaos at the beginning of the fall of the Soviet Union has been removed.

As for the time when the Soviet Union had just fallen, it was impossible to count the goods that lacked handover supervision. In extreme cases, a KFC sucking finger of plain chicken thighs can be exchanged for an AK.

"Then what are they trying to do?" Director Bao was also a little puzzled.

It's not that Director Bao doesn't understand foreign affairs work, but that in the past two years he has been in the Office of the Machinery Division, he has not had much contact with the sale of arms, and he is not in the right place.

If it was Qin Guogang in the office next door, there would be no such question.

Gu Biao pointed out sharply: "The picture is 'after-sales service'." Buying U.S. arms is a gesture of paying protection money in the name of the pledge, showing that those small countries have taken refuge in the U.S.-led world order. In the future, if they are bullied by other countries, the Americans will drive aircraft carriers to give them after-sales service and uphold justice.

Therefore, the arms premium of four or five times is essentially the protection fee. In this case, as long as you buy it on the surface and have a complete model, but the quantity and quality are slightly discounted, and a little fake and shoddy products are mixed, it is not a big deal.

It's not that our missiles are really four times worse than the combat performance of the advanced countries, but when they really want to shoot them out and listen to the sound, it's still cost-effective to shoot us, and the American and French products are for the sake of showing their posture on the tablet, not really as consumables, and they can't afford to consume them. ”

What is the perfect form of payment for arms protection? That is, to buy a batch of American or French goods to support the façade, especially consumables. Then when the real war is really fought, pretend to shoot one or two real shots, and the rest is mixed with water.

When the Americans and French came to check the accounts, they looked innocent, "We are poor, we use it sparingly, but we don't shoot so much".

How much consumables were consumed on the battlefield, the Americans and the French could not check the accounts, and it was not clear.

After figuring out this truth, Director Bao's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

Comrade Xiao Gu still has a way.

Isn't it more convenient to find a second-tier dealer who specializes in selling French goods and to talk to real buyers about adding water than the Chinese to directly sell them with knives and guns.

The key is that the final users do not have to bear the notoriety of "buying spicy chicken from China", they use it secretly, and they still pay the protection fee on the surface.

It's a bit like some maritime merchants in the late Ming Dynasty, who may have four or five boats at home, but only pay the price of 3,000 taels per ship per year, and ask the Zheng family to buy two flags. Then he imitated two or three sides and plugged in all five boats. Paying the protection fee for two boats, but doing the business of five boats, exquisite. (Of course, if the Zheng family finds out in history, they will all be thrown into the sea to feed the fish)

Director Bao patted his thigh anxiously: "There is such a good way, you should communicate with Xiao Qin first! Alas, it's a pity, it's Xiao Qin's political achievements, how can it not be regarded as the head of our machine science office, Xiao Gu, you just like to contribute to brother units." However, the director and deputy director must be happy to know about it, anyway, it is all in their hands. ”

Director Bao and Gu Biao are both from the Ministry of Machinery, so this credit cannot be counted as their "office", but the counterpart of the Ministry of Ordnance Industry's Foreign Trade Business Office, that is, Qin Guogang's side of the credit.

But these offices are all under the jurisdiction of the deputy director, so Gu Biao will definitely make the director remember him well.

"I wanted to say it at the time, but this time the Monegasque friend was also a little damaged, and it was not the right time to talk about it right away. I'll have to get in touch with it for a while. I'm afraid that I will let Lao Qin know now, he is too impatient to bypass me and contact me directly, but it will be bad, I am not afraid that he will take credit. ”

"This is right, but it's not a way if you don't report - so let's do it, I'll help you get to the bottom of it with the deputy director, and then let the top pull you and me to talk to Lao Qin together, don't be in a hurry about this, don't be greedy, let's figure it out slowly." If Xiao Qin knew that the deputy director already knew that the original idea was yours, he wouldn't be in a hurry to grab the credit, and he wouldn't be in a hurry. ”

"That's ...... It's not good, will it make Lao Qin disgusted and think that we are guarding against him?" Gu Biao hesitated.

His diplomatic skills and social skills are good, but in terms of the kung fu that has been pushed by officialdom, it is obviously inferior to those decades old organs.

"No, you can leave this matter to me, and I will help you out!" said Director Bao patting his chest.

Gu Biao suddenly had a delusion: Uncle Bao is so anxious and righteous...... It can't be that he wants to show this face, right?

However, Gu Biao is happy to see it happen.

If Director Bao stabbed the news to the deputy director, even if Qin Guogang suspected that someone was sharing the credit, he would not hate Gu Biao, and there would be no disagreement about the future cooperation between the two sides.

"Alas, I'm still only suitable for rushing to kill meritorious service in the front, and office fighting is not good at such things. I guess I won't be able to learn it for the rest of my life, but fortunately I don't have to stay for a few years. ”
