At that time, the French government decided not to oppose the negotiations between French and Taiwanese businessmen on the sale of frigates by France to the island of Taiwan, and the scope of negotiations was limited to the hull and equipment on board the ship, including weapons.

The French Government has repeatedly stressed that the implementation of this decision will not in any way undermine France's consistent position of recognizing the Beijing Government as the sole legitimate Government of China.

But in fact, everyone knows that this kind of guarantee is actually just a cover-up and stealing the bell, and if we don't use ship-borne weapons and equipment, what is the use of such a target at sea that is being beaten?

The Lafayette frigate is the kind of missile frigate with full stealth, in order to achieve stealth to the radar, it puts the anchoring equipment such as windlass, fairlead, cable pile, cable reel, etc. on the main deck below the main deck, and the main deck is surrounded by an inward inclined bulwark that plays a stealth role, and there are operation holes in the bulwark, so that they can be used for cable throwing and mooring operations when docking at the dock, and these operation holes are covered with covers during navigation.

With the exception of the helicopter landing deck, all outboard railings have been removed from the upper deck, and the broadside dinghys and davits have been retracted into the superstructure.

In addition, the mast and chimney are also designed with an inclined structure, and even inclined covers are installed on both sides of the anti-aircraft missile launcher, and the shape of the artillery and radar wireless has also been improved to enhance stealth.

After such thorough technical measures, when the helicopter on the ship took off to perform a mission and needed to return home, the carrier could not be found with radar, but the mothership was asked to fold the mesh curtain of the rectangular manhole on the side of the superstructure, and deliberately increase the radar reflection to accumulate before discovering the location of the Lafayette.

Its infrared stealth measures are mainly aimed at the heating area, such as the exhaust chimney, etc., instead of making steel plates that are easy to produce infrared radiation, it is made of glass fiber reinforced plastic, coated with special coatings, and strengthened thermal insulation to inhibit the strength of infrared radiation.

The Lafayette uses four French-made diesel engines. The total power is 20,000 horsepower, two-shaft propulsion, the engine room is usually unmanned, and the operation is carried out in the control center of the whole ship, where the power plant, power station, anti-roll system, three-defense system and damage control system can be controlled.

In terms of sea weaponry, it includes two quadruple Exocet anti-ship missile launchers, which are arranged on top of the central superstructure, equipped with eight bombs, with a range of 70 kilometers, and the missiles fly over the sea.

A 100-mm automatic cannon was mounted on the foredeck. With a range of 17 kilometers and a magazine for 600 shells, the helicopter can also perform anti-ship missions when equipped with air-launched Exocet missiles.

For this purpose, the ship has a missile hangar under the helicopter take-off and landing deck, equipped with a special elevator.

Although this advanced weapon can be said to be a missile frigate, as long as it is equipped with missiles, it is more than capable of defending or attacking.

Therefore, Beijing was very opposed at the time.

It was not easy for the Taiwanese to buy it, and the total price originally agreed upon for six frigates was 11 billion francs, but the final transaction price was as high as 16 billion francs. That's about $2.7 billion, which is more than three times the price Singapore would have paid for the same number of Delafayette frigates. The ambassador said to Fan Wuxi,

At the end of last year, France signed a contract with Taiwan for the purchase of 60 Mirage 2,000 aircraft, which is also quite expensive. Although we first made representations to the French side and said that we would never tolerate this matter. Then he sent an economic and trade delegation to visit France, making it clear that if France gave up selling Mirage fighters to Taiwan, he would give up. China can buy $2 billion worth of French products in cash. At the same time, it also provided the French side with a project list with a total value of $15.4 billion----"

"This kind of thing can't be stopped--- Fan Wuxian said to the ambassador.

"People don't just have to count the income from the sale of arms. More importantly, the profits from arms are too great. The beneficiaries also have a lot of bribes, and those who have the courage to pay $2.7 billion can come up with at least $700 million to bribe! You have offered to buy two billion dollars of French goods, but this is not a real benefit to the government officials! Which one do you think people will choose? ”

"Not really, right? Could it be that it is because of hundreds of millions of dollars that they have done such things that damage the relations between the two countries? After listening to Fan Wuxi's words, the ambassador felt that there was no reason at all.

"This is what the French feel is easy to bully Chinese---- and there are also political needs, it is estimated that the general election is the trouble, and there are also people who want to make some benefits---- Fan Wuxian listed the three most important reasons.

The ambassador nodded, what Fan Wuxian said did make sense. At that time, the French Socialist government was facing a domestic election, and it was lackluster, so it did not keep its word and made a desperate bet to reap the immediate benefits as a ruling achievement.

5.2.0 was first released, and at that time, there were still many people in the French decision-making level, who thought that China's approach was weak and could be bullied, and thought that China would swallow this cup of bitter wine.

As a result, France's wishful thinking was wrong. Later, the Chinese side began to react strongly, canceling some of the large-scale cooperation projects under negotiation with France, such as the Guangzhou Metro, the second phase of the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant, and the purchase of French wheat, and strictly controlling the exchanges between the two countries at or above the vice ministerial level, and immediately closing the French Consulate General in Guangzhou.

"The French Socialist Party has stepped down this year, so the new government wants to seek to improve Sino-French relations, and considering the actual interests, this negotiation will continue, but we still have to severely sanction several companies that sell arms to Taiwan." The ambassador said to Fan Wuxian.

Fan Wuxian shrugged his shoulders and said,

"Such sanctions mean nothing to them, and China doesn't buy their weapons anyway?" But in this way, Fan Wuxian finally understood the reason why those Taiwanese people appeared here, and he was quite interested in these people, so he leaned over there, wanting to hear what they had to say.

The result is really unlucky, those people are arguing with French Foreign Minister Roland Dima about something, but it is all French, Fan Wuxian was stunned and couldn't understand a word, all in all, they quarreled fiercely, blushing and thick-necked.

"What are they talking about?" Fan Wuxian had to ask the two sisters, Giselle and Adriana. Giselle listened for a while and said to Fan Wuxian,

"Those Taiwanese said that the warships we sold to them were of substandard quality, and there were many places of dilapidated equipment, which did not meet the conditions specified in the contract at all, and they refused to accept these warships. **.coM*** requires our company to compensate and act in accordance with the contract. ”

"What did the old Frenchman say?" Fan Wuxian looked at Roland Dima and asked Giselle.

"He said it was a commercial dispute that should be negotiated between French and Taiwanese companies and had nothing to do with the government." Giselle relayed to Fan Wuxian.

"This old man is very clean!" Fan Wuxian said with a smile. At present, he is the leader in Taiwan's military circles, and he knows some things, and Lee Teng-hui can't do anything anymore, so he thinks about how to toss and defeat the current government and divide all the money of Lao Chiang's family.

Ah Bian shouted slogans again to take office, and political and military circles were plagued by the problem of black money, and many underworld bigwigs were vying to spend money to run for legislature.

There is basically no combat effectiveness in the army, and the high-level ** is very serious. It is estimated that there are not a few high-ranking officials in the Taiwan military who have taken bribes in this arms sales case, and it seems that Lee Teng-hui will not be able to escape.

Without his authorization, the military would not have been able to come up with so much money. Adriana was still listening to them, and after a while she said with some surprise,

The Taiwanese said. He found 34 defects on the Lafayette frigate, so he prepared to return to Taiwan to file a motion recommending that the military cancel the arms purchase plan this time. "Oh?

Fan Wuxian couldn't help but take a serious look at the man, and found that it was a colonel officer, who was under fifty years old, looked quite capable, and looked like a top business man.

The kind of person who relies on his own strength to rise to the top. But. This guy is also a little too naïve.

Even if you want to reject this arms purchase, you shouldn't be stupid enough to tell the French face to face, right? After returning to Taiwan.

Talk to the top about the problem, and that's it. He is so vehemently opposed to this business, but it will offend many people, and it is estimated that many people now even have the intention of killing him.

The arms dealer wants to kill a petty officer who doesn't like the eye, and that's a matter of sticking out his little finger, it's really nothing.

So Fan Wuxian said to the two sisters very solemnly,

"I bet this guy is going to be out of luck!" But tonight suddenly encountered this kind of thing, so that Fan Wuxi has another mind, if he wants to buy the French Airbus plane, he should also leave a handle in his hand, this money must not be paid off at one time, at least to make an installment payment, save them shoddy, take second-hand goods to deceive themselves, when the time comes, which parameter does not meet the requirements of the product manual, Fan Wuxian has the right to ask for money deduction!

Fan Wuxian walked around the hall again, and there were many people who greeted him warmly this time, probably because many people learned about Fan Wuxi's details from various channels, knowing that he was a hot business giant in Chinese mainland, or a predator in the financial market, and looking at his eyes at this time, there was no contempt.

In the face of the warm greetings of so many people, Fan Wuxi seemed very calm, but the two sisters around him were shocked when they suddenly found that their boss had suddenly become the focus of attention in the Palace of Versailles.

"Sister, is our annual salary a little lower?" Adriana looked at the dignitaries who greeted Fan Wuxian, and said to her sister Giselle with a little regret.

Giselle glanced at her sister with some dissatisfaction, is this kind of thing easy to say and change? Although she also felt that Fan Wuxi's identity was not trivial, and he might be a wizard, but since everyone came out to mix, she couldn't be untrustworthy, otherwise, it would be difficult to gain a foothold in Dao'er.

Fan Wuxi seemed to have heard the conversation between the two sisters, so he glanced back at Adriana, and then said with a smile,

"It's easy to get a raise, but only if your job is worth it, work hard, little girl!" Adriana suddenly became a little angry, looked at Fan Wuxian and stammered,

"Oh my God! You call me a little girl?! Is this how you speak to a hereditary earl?! Fan Wuxian shook his head and said,

"To me, a little girl is a little girl, whether it's an earl, a duke, or even a queen, stripped naked, it's actually the same." Looking at the two sisters who were blushing a little by their bold words, Fan Wuxian smiled,

"Well, or maybe it's a little different, the smoothness of the skin shouldn't be the same."

"Rogue ----," the two sisters commented in unison. Fan Wu was sick and didn't think about it, but just looked at French Foreign Minister Roland Dimar, who was still talking over there, and then said to the two sisters on a whim,

"You say, will Roland Dima have a lover?" If the Chinese listen to this, they will probably be a little slanderous, after all, that guy is already an old man, that virtue, and the title of a high-ranking government official, how can he not be so inappropriate in his private life, right?

Fan Wuxian said this about a senior foreign government official, which is really a bit excessive. If the ambassador hears it, it is estimated that he must say two sentences, such as what such words are not conducive to improving Sino-French relations.

But what he said was two little French girls, the romance of the French, and the lover is really not a big deal, so Giselle replied,

"There should be, right? As long as you check carefully, it is not difficult to find. ”

"Good!" Fan Wuxian said to Giselle with great satisfaction,

"This is the first task I have given you, which is to find out Roland Dima's lover, and as much detailed information as possible, if you complete this task, there will be a bonus!" After hearing this, the two sisters were a little tempted, this kind of work of inquiring about ** is very in line with the nature of their previous work, and they are familiar with the road.

It's just that it is very challenging to check the French foreign minister, the fifth person in France.

But the two sisters also have something to rely on, after all, they are also nobles with the title of earl!
