Lieutenant General Chapter 252 of the main text volume (thanks for listening to the rain dream)

Next chapter

Thank you for listening to Yu Mengxin's reward, especially add a new chapter.

The Pentagon in the United States is also located southwest of Washington, D.C., and it takes less than half an hour to drive from Capitol Hill. As everyone knows, the Pentagon is the seat of the US Department of Defense, and all Hou Wenjun has to do now is to follow Colonel Gordon to the Department of Defense's Foreign Arms Sales Review Office to report.

Yes, Hou Wenjun plans to pay for the repair of the aircraft carrier, otherwise with the current dilapidated appearance, which country can buy it. Of course, there is also the issue of transforming it into a helicopter carrier, and there is no country in Southeast Asia other than Japan that can transform an aircraft carrier.

Vice Admiral Venster, who is in charge of the export of US weapons, is also the chief judge of the internal hearing of the US military, and this hearing is about the issue of the magic change of the aircraft carrier Oriscany.

Venster, who was sitting in the conference room, gently tapped the wen jiàn in his hand, listening to the flickering of Wen Jun's red mouth and white teeth on the other side. He is not in a hurry, because he knows that Hou Wenjun will tell the truth sooner or later, but these words cannot be recorded in the file and will not be in the contract, but it is a rule that Hou Wenjun must abide by.

Hou Wenjun, who had been in the fog for a long time, looked at Venster with a detached face and shook his head helplessly, he knew that what he was saying now was nonsense, but these words must also be said, which is related to the next step of the two parties.

Sure enough, after waiting for Wen Jun to introduce how he was going to use this aircraft carrier to conduct sightseeing in Hong Kong, Vice Admiral Venster finally spoke.

"Mr. Hou, I think our Congress is already very clear about your request. And we in the United States also understand your real purpose. You don't have to go around in circles. What exactly are you buying this aircraft carrier for? You didn't say you were going to put missiles on it. Don't be surprised, Adams is also my friend. Venster looked at Wen Jun with a playful expression.

Hou Wenjun laughed when he heard this: "The only flaw of the first island chain of the United States is the waters of the South China Sea. Everyone knows very well that even if you have troops stationed in the Philippines, the South China Sea is too big, and it is impossible for you to complete the blockade without the help of Vietnam on the left. ”

Seeing Hou Wenjun, who was pausing and not speaking, Venster shrugged his shoulders and said, "Is there a way for you to help us achieve this goal?" ”

Hou Wenjun nodded when he heard this, and said, "The Vietnamese will not accept your American weapons. But their navy can't. What would happen if Vietnam's navy faced off against Chinese warships in the South China Sea? The Vietnamese Navy was devastated. And with this helicopter carrier, the Vietnamese navy's combat power will increase exponentially, so that it will have the upper hand in the battle for islands with the Chinese government in the South China Sea (geographically, not how powerful the Vietnamese navy is). This is the situation that you Americans would like to see the most. ”

Venster knocked on the table again, pondered for a moment, and said, "You mean to sell our aircraft carriers to the Vietnamese and let them fight with the Chinese government in the South China Sea?" I have to say, this construction of yours is not bad, but don't forget that Vietnam is also one of the countries that we have an arms embargo with the United States. Even if you sell aircraft carriers to them. An aircraft carrier without heavy helicopter gunships is nothing more than a larger container ship. ”

Hou Wenjun frowned, this old beauty is really arrogant. Before the collapse of the Soviet Union, it regarded itself as the only military power on the planet. Immediately, Hou Wenjun said unceremoniously: "I think the United States is not the only country in the world that can produce armed helicopters, such as the Soviet Union." ”

After hearing Hou Wenjun's words, Venster finally laughed happily and said, "Okay, Mr. Hou, I'll wait for you, the Ministry of Defense agrees to your request, but you have to pay attention to the fact that this aircraft carrier can only be sold to Vietnam." ”

Hou Wenjun immediately shook his head when he heard this, and said, "The one with the highest price wins, this is the rule of doing business, you can't break my rules." "Hou Wenjun can only get sick if he agrees to this one, everyone knows that Vietnam is poor and can only be sold to a Vietnamese family, and he is not doing charity.

Venster knocked on Wen Jien in his hand with some dissatisfaction, and said, "You must know that this is our American aircraft carrier." ”

Hou Wenjun said a little helplessly, "General Venster, I am presumptuous, you are not the attitude of the US government towards his own **fire businessman." As he spoke, Hou Wenjun took out a copy of his American passport from his body.

Venster glanced at the photo on Hou Wenjun's passport disdainfully and said, "You have only one choice, either do it or not." Put away your little tricks, I won't work here. ”

Hou Wenjun took back his passport, looked at Venster and said, "What do you need me to do?" "Hou Wenjun surrendered, not that he didn't have the means to talk about it, but that the gains outweighed the losses. Hou Wenjun, who knows how to advance and retreat, chose to surrender very singlely.

Venster nodded with satisfaction and said, "The military can help you refit for free, but this aircraft carrier can only be sold to Vietnam." ”

Hou Wenjun thought for a long time before looking at Venster and said, "Okay, how to sell and how much to sell is my business, and you have to help me with this last point." ”

Immediately, Venster glanced at Colonel Gordon beside him and said, "Sue him, my rules." After speaking, he directly picked up the text in his hand and walked out of the conference room.

Gordon looked at Venster's back and smiled disdainfully, "Congratulations, Mr. Hou, welcome to join the ranks of the United States ** Fire Merchants." ”

Hou Wenjun waved his hand indifferently and said, "The lowest-level arms dealer is just a low-level arms dealer, it's not like I want to live by looking at his face." Saying that, Hou Wenjun pursed his lips and motioned for Venster to walk out just now.

Gordon nodded when he heard this, and said, "So, I'm just a colonel and he's a general, your trick works for me, but it won't work for him at all." You still want to think about how to sell your aircraft carrier for a good price, you have not paid a lot for this aircraft carrier, I guess it has cost almost 30 million dollars now. ”

Hearing Gordon's price, Hou Wenjun instantly frowned. Hou Wenjun spent less than $10 million on the RAND think tank, and less than $10 million on the Soviet side. Hou Wenjun's really hidden expenses were not thought to be mastered by the United States. This is the cost of his public relations for 10 million dollars to hire an American public relations firm to help him with public relations, and the targets include more than a dozen military figures related to his aircraft carrier program, such as Venster and Gordon.

Hou Wenjun's $10 million can be said to have accomplished his goal, and his aircraft carrier plan was implemented smoothly. It can also be said that it was a complete failure, everyone knows what he Hou Wenjun did in the United States, is this kind of public relations effect what he needs?

In this personal contest between Hou Wenjun and Venster, Hou Wenjun was completely defeated. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
