The arms trade is a relatively mysterious field for Ye Chen. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As long as you pay a little attention to the news, you will know how many arms the United States sells in a year, and this year it sold to little Japan F-35, and Hongqi-9 has not been sold.

As a military fan, Ye Chen is particularly interested in this. In the past, there was no chance to understand, but now that Wu Jinchen, a participant in the arms trade, was right in front of him, if Ye Chen didn't understand it and satisfy his curiosity, it wouldn't be Ye Chen.

"Tell me about it." Not only is Ye Chen interested, but Guo Haoyu and Zhu Xinyan are not curious?

For them, the arms trade can almost be said to be a legendary thing, and they have no chance to contact it at all, and they will miss it if they have this opportunity to understand.

Wu Jinchen looked at Ye Chen's curious baby in his eyes, and was a little speechless, he really couldn't imagine that the famous future concept senior management would have such a curious side.

"When it comes to the arms trade, the United States is the largest arms exporter, the woolly bear is second, and we are third." Wu Jinchen began to introduce the international arms trade, saying: "The reason for this situation is not only that our country entered the international arms trade late, but also has a particularly important relationship with politics. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Guo Haoyu asked.

"There is a saying in the international community that the arms trade is the highest manifestation of the good political relations between the two countries. If we want to make an arms trade, the political relations between the two countries must be good, otherwise there is no need to talk about it. For buyers, what if the political relations are not good, I buy your arms, and you don't supply me with ammunition? Wu Jinchen gave an example here, saying: "We all know that the Anglo-Argentine Falklands War ended with Britain's victory over Argentina. After the war, people mostly blamed the Argentine military for its incompetence, which is unfair. The Argentine army is not vegetarian either, and the reason for its failure has a lot to do with the arms trade. ”

"Oh, and that kind of saying?" Many company executives were surprised.

The Anglo-Argentine War was recognized as the incompetence of the Argentine military that led to the defeat of the British. Wu Jinchen's statement is more alternative and unexpected.

"Argentina was buying arms from the West at that time, and when it was in dire need of ammunition replenishment, the collective West stopped selling ammunition to Argentina. The reason for this is that Britain is the younger brother of the United States, in other words, the West is all in the same group, and they all wear a pair of pants. Therefore, these Western countries cut off the arms supply to Argentina in order to help Britain. Wu Jinchen explained.

I see! Everyone was stunned.

"This example is a good example that the arms trade must have good political relations, and it can be said that I will not buy your things if it is not an iron buddy, no matter how good it is." Wu Jinchen continued: "On the other hand, if it's not an iron buddy, I won't sell weapons to you." What if the political relationship is not good, I sell you the weapon, and you come to beat me again? Our country has experienced this. ”

Ye Chen took over the conversation and said, "The small country in the south, if it weren't for our country's gratuitous support, no one can say for sure whether it would have been destroyed by the United States. Later, this small country fought us with the weapons and ammunition we supported, and this led to the self-defense counterattack more than 30 years ago. ”

The reason for the counterattack more than 30 years ago is well known. During the U.S. invasion, our country supported a large amount of munitions, and later, this small country used these weapons and ammunition to fight us.

This is a very sad thing.

"That's right." Wu Jinchen deeply agreed, saying: "Good political relations are a prerequisite for the arms trade, and this is why the United States is the world's number one arms trading country." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Guo Haoyu didn't understand.

"Guo Zi, Mr. Wu's words are so obvious, you still don't understand?" Ye Chen looked at Guo Haoyu and asked.

Not only Guo Haoyu doesn't understand, but even Zhu Xinyan doesn't understand.

"Guo Zi, you are all watching the news, and from time to time you know how the allies of the United States are, and if you count them carefully, you will find that the United States has many allies." Ye Chen explained to them, "These allies are just official beautiful words, used to fool people. In real terms, these so-called allies are nothing more than pawns of the United States, and they can even be said to be vassals of chess pieces. These so-called allies have to listen to the United States, and if the United States does not agree, these so-called allies will not be able to do anything. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Chen paused slightly, and gave an example: "As you all know, European countries once announced in a high-profile manner that they would lift the embargo on arms sales to our country and sell weapons to our country. It didn't take long for the matter to disappear, and the ban has not been lifted until now, why? It is because the United States does not agree. ”

"This is a good illustration of how strong the U.S. control over these so-called allies is, so the U.S. can safely sell weapons to these so-called allies." And these so-called allies, although they may be unwilling in their hearts, cannot get rid of the control of the United States, and can only obediently buy American weapons. Therefore, it is only natural that the United States has become the world's largest arms trading country. ”

Guo Haoyu: They were stunned.

Bang Bang Bang!

Wu Jinchen was the first to applaud, followed by Zhuang Lao and Xiao Lingyue. Guo Haoyu and the others also joined in, and they were particularly in favor of Ye Chen's analysis.

"Ye Dong has a really thorough view of international relations." Wu Jinchen was greatly admired.

Since going to Huangchenggen and being admonished by Elder Zhuang, Ye Chen has been paying attention to his studies in this area, and he has gained a lot of gains, and his views on international relations are good.

"We all know that American weapons have always been the most advanced in the world, why is that? The reason is that the United States can still use the things of its allies. For example, why can't Europe lift the arms embargo on our country? As Mr. Ye said, it is because the United States does not agree. Well, there is the question, why does the United States not agree? Because 30 percent of the weapons technology of the United States comes from Europe. If Europe sells weapons to our country, our country will be able to grasp 30 percent of the US military secrets without much effort. Let's do another reverse project, study and study well, and it is not a problem to master 40 or 50 percent of US military secrets. Therefore, the United States is afraid and will not allow Europe to lift the arms embargo on our country. Wu Jinchen added.

It has been more than 20 years since Europe imposed an arms embargo on our country, and during this period, several attempts to lift it have failed because of the obstruction of the United States, because the United States has used a lot of European technology.

"Some time ago, the President of the United States directly intervened in Germany and did not allow our country to buy a German company, because a large American arms dealer was an important customer of this German company." Ye Chen added.

"That's right, that's right." Wu Jinchen greatly agreed, saying: "The United States is worried that this will leak US military secrets and directly intervene. ”

Everyone knows this news and immediately understands it.

"It is precisely because of these advantages that the United States is able to use the technology and funds of its so-called allies, and it is not possible for the United States to use advanced weapons." Wu Jinchen continued to analyze and said: "After all, Mao Xiong is the successor of the Red Empire, and its weapons are very influential in the world, so it is natural that it has become the second largest arms trading country. ”

The Red Empire and the United States have been fighting for decades, although they have disintegrated, but they still have a lot of legacy, especially the Red Empire pursues the practice of supporting the people with the army, and its weapons have their own characteristics and were once very popular.

"Although our country has become the third largest arms trading country, our weapons are mainly sold to countries with which we have a particularly good relationship, because our country does not have the same advantages as the United States and Mao Xiong, and we are catching up." Wu Jinchen analyzed and said: "If we want to catch up, we must first do a good job in political relations, and without a reliable political relationship, it is impossible for our country to sell its arms." ”

Friends who are concerned about the arms trade know that there are only a few arms sold in our country, and there are countries that have particularly good political relations with our country. Beyond that, not much was sold.

This is determined by the characteristics of the arms trade, there are no good political relations, not iron buddies, one does not dare to sell, the other does not dare to buy.

If our country wants to make a difference in the arms trade, it must do a good job in diplomacy and expand its influence on a global scale, and only in this way can our weapons sell well.

"Well, I think the arms trade has another meaning, which is equivalent to taking sides." Ye Chen thought for a while.

"That's right." Wu Jinchen thought deeply and said: "The particularity of the arms trade determines that the arms trade is to stand in line. I'm going to sell it to you, and you've got to reassure me. I'm going to buy your weapons, and you're going to reassure me. This means that the seller will not choke the buyer's neck, and the buyer will not use the seller's weapon to hit the seller. In fact, this is the equivalent of a quasi-alliance. ”

In today's world, the United States and the Celestial Empire are the three largest arms exporters. If we analyze the arms trade of these three countries, we will find that the United States mainly sells to allies of the United States, Mao Xiong mainly sells to his good friends, and the Celestial Empire mainly sells to countries that have good relations with the Celestial Empire.

In fact, these are the three major forces, which can also be said to be quasi-alliances.

"Our country once wanted to sell Hongqi-9 to a country, and the conditions given were quite generous, and this country just used our country as a bargaining chip and wanted to buy missiles from the West. But I didn't expect that it didn't take long for the relationship with Mao Xiong to break down, and I wanted to buy missiles from the West, but the West didn't sell them. Looking back, if we want to buy our Hongqi 9, we don't sell it anymore. Guo Haoyu said disdainfully: "According to me, we will not sell weapons to this country in the future." ”

"No!" Wu Jinchen was very clear about his objection, saying: "We not only want to sell, but also sell big." At this stage, the timing is not right, and when the time is right, we will restart the arms trade with this country. ”

"Why?" The crowd was puzzled.

Obviously, it is this country that plays us and uses us as bargaining chips, so it stands to reason that such a country should not do business with him, so why should it do it again?
