734 The more tyrannical Prince of Sultan
Liu Yijiu became the youngest major general in the republic, but his rank was secret, and he was not allowed to go out to deceive, that is, he could not appear in public.
Liu Yijiu naturally understands this, he needs this level, not to go out and show off, but to fight for more benefits.
As long as you have this level, the documents on your body can be useful for some moments.
Of course, now, his rank is still a full division, and he will not be allowed to wear a uniform carrying a gold star until the country clearly implements the military rank system.
And this time he went to the Middle East for secret negotiations, and he could appear as a general.
"Boy, now that you have your wish, you must remember who you are and who you are! This trip to the Middle East, if it harms national interests, you know the consequences...... "Li Yunlong is still a little unaccustomed to Liu Yijiu becoming the youngest general of the Republic.
Thinking about how many life and death he experienced back then, he became a major general at such a young age.
"Dad, don't worry, you don't know him!" Liu Yijiu became a general, although it made many bigwigs uncomfortable, but Li Rui's chronic joy.
At the teacher level, many people will not be able to step into it for a lifetime.
Moreover, the master level is just a transition.
"Minister Long, since Director Qi is leading a delegation to Saudi Arabia this time, I hope you can seize the time to urge the United States to deliver the battleship to us as soon as possible. Once our deal with the Middle East was revealed internationally, it was ...... battleship that should have been delivered a long time ago. The Americans dragged on their feet in the demolition work, making it clear that they wanted to do something about it.
The officers and soldiers who used to receive ships in China consumed a lot of American knives every day.
Although it is said that under the guidance of the Americans, the training speed is much faster. But the battleship did not drive back now......
"Don't worry, the Military Commission attaches great importance to this matter, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is mediating with the United States, so you can rest assured that at least one battleship's shell will be towed back before you negotiate on your side." Battleships are related to the upgrading and development of the entire military industrial system, and not only Long Yaohua and other bigwigs attach great importance to this matter, but also the entire military and even the country's top level.
"Comrade Xiao Liu. Don't worry about going to Saudi Arabia, you don't have to worry about these things. Our energy is limited, and we can't be like Zhuge Liang, and we must do everything ourselves......" Although Qi Hao knew why Liu Yijiu attached so much importance to the shell of a battleship. But Liu Yijiu is really worried about a lot. "There's still a mess in the Ninth Courtyard......"
Liu Yijiu nodded silently.
He is worried that once the medium-range strategic missiles with Saudi Arabia are revealed, Israel strongly opposes them, and the US government under the control of the Jewish consortium will sabotage the transaction between China and Saudi Arabia, which will further affect the scientific and technological cooperation between China and the United States and even the entire Western countries.
Other bigwigs. Naturally, I am very aware of such things.
How. Now they don't have a good solution.
During the trip to the Middle East, Qi Hao, director of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, served as the head of the regiment, and Liu Yijiu served as the deputy head of the delegation, but the initiative in the negotiations was handed over to Liu Yijiu, and Qi Hao was responsible for the details of the negotiations. This, all of the above. Including Qi Hao himself, he knows it very clearly.
China Precision Machinery Import and Export Trading Company also has a large number of people involved in this.
Even if it is streamlined and streamlined. In the end, there were still 23 people in the entire negotiation team, and there were only Liu Yijiu and Li Rui in the Ninth Hospital, as well as three Liu Yijiu's security personnel. Of course, the negotiation team, security personnel are not counted. With the addition of security personnel, the entire team exceeded forty people.
The negotiating team took Pakistan and then flew directly to Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, but the venue for the negotiations was not in Riyadh, and the Saudi side, for the sake of secrecy, chose the venue for the negotiations in an air base 150 kilometers southeast of Riyadh. The plane that transported the Chinese negotiating team was a Boeing plane imported from the United States from Pakistan. Ark's plane!
This shows what role Pakistan plays in this.
According to Liu Yijiu's original intention, he was preparing to visit some of Pakistan's military enterprises, especially their Longwei tank production line, as well as some of their nuclear energy research institutes and production units.
In order to keep the transaction between the two sides from being discovered by the outside world, the Saudi side rejected Liu Yijiu's proposal, and hoped that Liu Yijiu would arrange to visit it on the return trip.
Liu Yijiu also has no opinion on this matter.
Anyway, before the return trip, I also got to Iraq and Iran to go around.
It would also be more effective in deceiving the outside world that the Chinese team was selling their outdated weaponry to the two warring countries to save the entire country's military industrial system, which was on the verge of bankruptcy.
"Director Liu, welcome to Saudi Arabia. But this time, we can't take you to see the customs of Saudi Arabia...... "Prince Bandar, as the main Saudi official who dealt with Liu Yijiu, did not take the lead in shaking hands with Qi Hao, who was the head of the negotiation team.
He also knows that Liu Yijiu is the one who can really call the shots in the negotiations.
Qi Hao has no opinion on this.
He cares about being able to sell equipment and let the entire country's national defense science and technology have a large amount of funds for continued development.
Science and technology for national defense are not strong, and he, the leader of the Commission of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defense, is not glorious.
Besides, the proletarian revolutionaries of the older generation really don't care much about their own face, and they don't want to fight for the funds of their own departments or other policies, and Li Yunlong is a typical representative figure.
"Saudi Arabia's customs and customs, I will have the opportunity to see it in the future. What we care about most now is the win-win cooperation between us......" Liu Yijiu looked at Qi Hao on the side awkwardly, and saw that his expression was the same, so he said with a smile.
Just kidding, if he went to the desert of Saudi Arabia to see the scenery, he might as well stay in the mountains.
The current Saudi Arabia is not the Saudi Arabia that later had the most luxurious city in the world.
Although it is developed, it does not have any characteristics.
"Here, I have to spend a few days in our officers' quarters, and I hope you will understand that tonight, Prince Sultan will be coming to preside over your welcome dinner......" Bandar led everyone into the arranged officers' quarters, and on the way there was a very important news.
Prince Sultan, who is the most powerful figure in Saudi Arabia, will basically take his advice to King Fahd.
"The crown prince is here in person?" Liu Yijiu was a little surprised.
"He will personally participate in the framework negotiations between the two of us......," said the news revealed by Prince Bandar, which shocked Liu Yijiu even more.
He did not expect that Sultan, the crown prince, the first deputy prime minister, the commander of the Strategic Air Defense Force, and the head of the Saudi arms procurement plenipotentiary, would personally participate in this. It turned out that it had always been the oil bandar that had been in contact and negotiation with the Chinese side.
Saudi Arabia's Air Force officers' quarters are far stronger than the Chinese officers' quarters, each dormitory not only has leather sofas imported from Italy, Simmons from France, but also air conditioners and color TVs from the United States, and a series of daily necessities that are luxury goods for China now.
This is no worse than an ordinary hotel in the Republic that has the capacity to receive foreign affairs.
The dormitories of ordinary officers in the local tyrant countries have stunned the Chinese officials.
At the welcome dinner, there was nothing particularly outstanding, except for a lot of fruits and food imported by Saudi Arabia from all over the world, and in the entire air base, even the base commander did not appear, and the reception was also a small entourage of Prince Sultan and Prince Bandar.
The Muslim world does not drink alcohol, and no matter how rich the food is, for the Chinese who are used to talking about things at the wine table, it is somewhat unaccustomed.
Soon after, the two sides began the first round of negotiations.
Liu Yijiu didn't care about the scale of the reception in Saudi Arabia or anything, and he didn't care that there was no wine on the wine table.
In his world, Saudi Arabia imported China's second kick, and the negotiations on the Saudi side, for the sake of secrecy, were held at night every day, and both sides were negotiating very seriously, and many times even let the negotiations last until 4:5 in the morning.
Such negotiations lasted a whole week.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, our conditions have been conveyed through His Royal Highness Prince Bandar, which is the agreement we have drawn up on cooperation......" As the head of the delegation, Qi Hao naturally had to preside, before coming to Saudi Arabia, they had listed every cooperation conditions and negotiation details, including important technical parameters and follow-up support services, etc......
Sultan did not expect that the Chinese would actually get into the right topic at the beginning.
This Saudi powerhouse gestured to Bandar beside him, Bandar took the document, and he said: "All we care about is the procurement of strategic weapons like the DF-3." This concerns the security of the entire Muslim-centric world, and after our discussions, and with the approval of His Majesty King Fahd, we have agreed to purchase the DF-3A medium-range strategic missiles designed and produced by your country for $65 million each, but what we require is that these missiles must all have a range of more than 2,800 kilometers...... At the same time, we hope that China will export to us 300 sets of Guardian-1 rocket artillery with a range of 120 kilometers, as well as supporting rocket loading vehicles and launch command vehicles, and at the same time, 5 times as many rockets, but your price is too high, we hope to be able to sell rockets for 100,000 US dollars each, and at the same time, add guidance systems to the rockets......"
The local tyrant country, the local tyrant who holds the real power, did not entangle on the frame, and as soon as Sultan opened his mouth, he was much more arrogant than Bandar.
If the number of Guardian rockets is too large, China may not be able to export them. (To be continued.) )
