After all, Iran's main battle equipment is mainly Western weapons and equipment, not to mention that these weapons and equipment have not been put into service for a long time, not only with advanced performance but also in good technical and tactical condition, coupled with the current life-and-death war with Iraq, Iran is neither willing nor capital to replace all these intact weapons and equipment, so it can only continue to use.

In order to keep these weapons and equipment in normal operation and maintain the corresponding combat effectiveness, the necessary maintenance and related repair guarantees are naturally indispensable, but Iran, a resource-exporting country, has not achieved industrialization and cannot provide the necessary spare parts for weapons and equipment at all.

Because of this, although the Islamic Revolution launched by Khomeini is politically in opposition to the West, in the eyes of the major Western arms dealers, Iran's clamor is like a toddler's cry, which is not worth mentioning at all, otherwise Brown's words would not be so justified:

"So they still want a piece of the pie, it's a dream," said Brown, straightening up, shaking the wine glass in his hand, and then raising his azure eyes, looking at the seemingly nonchalant Anderson sitting across from him, and his tone was not as smug as before, but with gentlemanly humility and politeness:

"In any case, both I and United Technologies would like to express my sincere gratitude to you, Mr. Anderson, and I would not have been able to complete the deal with the Iranians so smoothly if it were not for your accurate information on Iran's contacts with the Chinese. ”

Hearing Brown's words, Anderson nodded slightly at Brown in a chivalrous manner, and then shrugged his shoulders indifferently:

"If Mr. Brown, as you just said, that the Iranian arms market belongs to the West, no matter how its regime changes, this fact will never change, not to mention that the job I am now holding is to safeguard the overseas interests of the United Kingdom's industry, consolidate the established market, and expand new markets. Isn't that what I should be doing to make more profits?"

As soon as Anderson finished speaking, a knowing smile immediately appeared on Brown's stiff face, as an old friend of Anderson. Good partner, Brown naturally knows that the so-called Foreign Aid and Liaison Department of the British Intelligence Division VI where Anderson currently works is a special agency set up by the British intelligence department at the behest of the Thatcher government in order to support and revitalize the military industry, aiming to strengthen support for British industrial enterprises in the field of intelligence.

Therefore, the British Intelligence Division 6 has set up this foreign aid and liaison department with elite troops and strong generals, and in order to facilitate relevant work on a global scale. The department has several full-time directors according to the regional situation, and because Anderson has been working in the Asian region for a long time, he is very familiar with the situation in the region, so the headquarters appointed him as the head of the Asian region, responsible for coordinating and coordinating the intelligence work of arms sales in the entire Asian region!

Anderson also lived up to expectations, with his sophisticated methods and vigorous work energy, he quickly seized a large amount of information on arms in India, Australia, Saudi Arabia, Oman and other countries, relying on this accurate and efficient information, British industrial enterprises and arms dealers achieved extremely good results in a short period of time.

The same is true of the information about Iran's arms purchases, which Anderson learned of immediately from the secret line planted in Tehran. After receiving this information, Anderson immediately passed it on to his friend, Brown, the sales director of the British United Technology Corporation, and asked him to contact the Iranians as soon as possible to try to hold them up.

At the same time, they used the channels at their disposal to send a message to the top level of the Iranian military and government, persuading them to abandon the original procurement plan and instead purchase relevant weapons and equipment from the British side. Negotiations with the British were initiated and a preliminary agreement was reached.

Of course, Anderson is so dedicated to Iran's arms sales, and he is very busy before and after the saddle, and in addition to his duties, there is a deep secret in his heart. That is China, you must know that the previous arms sales to China not only did not achieve any set goals, but also failed, not to mention the slightest benefit, but also ridiculed by the Chinese, this experience in the heart of Anderson, an Anglo-Saxon gentleman with a strong sense of honor, is simply a great shame, because of this. Anderson hated China so hard that he vowed that one day he would make the Chinese suffer a thousand times more humiliation than he was.

For this reason, whenever there is a little bit of a situation against China, Anderson spares no effort to obstruct and sabotage, such as the previous Chinese 52 times caliber 155mm howitzer patent registration incident, Anderson is behind it, and the idea of the so-called global arms market blockade news is also Anderson behind the scenes.

Now, when he learned that Iran intended to contact China and purchase new artillery, he naturally would not sit idly by, immediately arranged personnel, drafted a plan, and vowed to destroy the arms sales between China and Iran.

Brown knows better than anyone what Anderson thinks in his heart, not to mention that he himself doesn't want China to become a headless fly that eats deflated everywhere, so after listening to Anderson's words, Brown nodded slightly, and then said with an excited smile:

"Anyway, we have made a lot of money this time, Iran not only purchased a large number of spare parts for the chieftain's tanks, but also verbally promised to purchase the FH-70 39 times caliber 155mm howitzer, and at the same time is also very interested in the L118 105mm ultralight gun!"

Listening to Brown's words, Anderson couldn't help but nodded, but at this moment, he couldn't help but think of something, and then a pair of slightly dark eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and then said as if talking to himself:

"Iran doesn't use a large percentage of British-made equipment, but we have such a good return, the United States"

"America, hmph! The American arms guys are going to make a lot of money!" Before Anderson could finish his self-talk, Brown snorted coldly, and then continued without thinking:

"There is an iron law in the international arms industry, the sale of complete sets of weapons and equipment is only the beginning, the follow-up spare parts and maintenance is the real gold mine, often the amount of the latter is more than three times the former, as long as the equipment is sold is equivalent to the selling country as an ATM, even in peacetime profits are very rich, wartime profits are even more upside down.

How could the arms dealers in the United States let go of such a large piece of fat, even if the relations between the United States and Iran have fallen to the freezing point, they will still have to change the law and squeeze in, if it were not for the US government to block it, it would not dare to be blatant on the surface, otherwise it would not be too ugly to eat?

As he spoke, Brown seemed to realize something, so much so that he even stood up from the sofa like a spring, and a look of wonder flashed in his blue eyes:

"Mr. Anderson, didn't you inform your American counterparts in advance, and they"

Without waiting for Brown to finish speaking, Anderson nodded meaningfully: " The U.S. government has indeed exerted pressure on the Chinese government on the issue of arms sales to Iran, but the relevant information has not been provided by the British side, but has been obtained through their own channels, and has exerted diplomatic and economic pressure on the Chinese government in accordance with the relevant United Nations resolutions.

Listening to Anderson's words, Brown's face suddenly turned pale, he has been in the international arms market for a long time, and he knows everything very well, because of this, he naturally knows more about what the urine nature of those American ** fire dealers is than others, you must know that those guys are simply a group of beasts that eat meat and do not spit out bones, although they are dressed in human skin, but they have no humanity at all.

For the sake of their own interests, they can sell everything, destroy everything and even start a war, even the closest allies will be ruthlessly abandoned or even destroyed by them once their interests are contrary, even the seemingly powerful US president is no exception, and now Brown's United Technologies company is participating in Iran's arms sales, which is equivalent to competing head-on with American arms dealers, if one is not good

Thinking of this, Brown's heart couldn't help but tremble a few times, his body couldn't help but shiver, his blue eyes were soaked with a look of horror, and Anderson, who was sitting opposite him, couldn't help but show a meaningful smile on his cold face:

"Rest assured, Mr. Brown, that just a few weeks ago, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher visited the United States and reached a secret agreement with President Reagan on the sale of Iranian arms, and we have nothing to worry about in this regard, but a country like China that does not know the height of the sky should be careful, otherwise it will not be a simple pressure, but"

Anderson didn't finish his words, his smile became more gloomy and intense, Brown sitting opposite was a nimble arms sales director after all, after listening to these words, he naturally knew the meaning, and couldn't help but laugh heartily, and then raised the wine glass in his hand, Anderson also raised his hand instantly, and the crisp clinking of glasses immediately sounded in the suite (to be continued). )
