Chapter 454: Talking about business
In fact, this price is definitely a very high price for mercenaries. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Qiu Fengyu just said casually, to be honest, when he was in Ukraine, he could kill people for hundreds or thousands of dollars. But in the United States it's different. His appetite can be regarded as nourishing. Reality grabbed some money with open fire, and then got a huge salary by making movies, so he opened his mouth.
To be honest, three million dollars is indeed a lot, enough to tempt any mercenary. And it is true that a team of elite mercenaries of more than fifty or so people can be used. Of course, these mercenaries do not need to be those who are begging for a living in war-torn areas, and those mercenaries are generally people who are begging for a living at the bottom. Tactical skills and survivability are poor. If you want to find the elite, you have to spend a lot of money. So Qiu Fengyu said 10 million, Messi? Haneke's first thought was that this guy was crazy.
Qiu Fengyu is indeed crazy, but compared to the ransom demanded by those people, it is only a small part. And once the ransom is paid, it will be tantamount to setting a very bad precedent, which is something that the US government does not want to see. So recruiting mercenaries is really a nerve-wracking thing.
Every high-ranking mercenary has a price. The price of three million is for a mercenary army of fifty people. Then use the air force airdrop, and finally surprise attack, successfully rescue the hostages, this is what the US government has to do, as for Billie, if she is not dead, maybe she will also be searched and rescued.
Because the identities of the three hostages are really important. And this failed rescue has attracted the attention of the international community, and it is impossible to get the Peruvian government to keep the secret for the Americans.
Messi? Hanek looked at Qiu Fengyu with anticipation, he hoped that Qiu Fengyu would agree, because he wanted a rescue operation without suspense, and the only person who knew the root cause and could succeed was Qiu Fengyu. Anyway, it's not the U.S. government that pays the money, it's the families of these three people, and a million dollars each of them is nothing to such a family.
"Five million dollars!" Qiu Fengyu stretched out a palm, in Messi? Haneke's face shook, "If you don't agree, there's no need to talk about it." Anyway, you want the CIA to achieve your wishes through the Peruvian government, it is absolutely impossible, you can think with your ass, the Peruvian government is not reliable! ”
He still maintained that faint smile, and his eyes didn't sweep the photo next to him. This time put Messi? Hanek felt that Qiu Fengyu was a cold-blooded guy at all, and he didn't care about Billie's life or death at all. So Messi? Haneke still shook his head a little hesitantly, wanting to veto, but he couldn't make up his mind after all.
"Mr. Haneke, are you hesitant because you have too much money?" Qiu Fengyu couldn't help but shake his head, "I have a credibility guarantee, and I know from my mission in Iraq that my credibility is very high." I'm glad I can do something for the CIA, but I can't do it for nothing, can I? Of course, if you can find the right person to replace me, that's okay, I'll treat you as if you've never come. And also...... This money is not for you CIA or the U.S. government, but for the people of those three families, and this money is for them...... It's nothing at all, maybe they are willing to use this money in exchange for the safety of their relatives? Qiu Fengyu continued to say to Haneke.
"I thought I should talk to them. Wait for my call! "Speaking of which, Messi? Haneke felt that he couldn't go on like this, so he got up, "I'll tell you if there's a result." With that, he walked outside.
"Hey, Mr. Haneke!" Qiu Fengyu said behind his back, "None of the hostages kidnapped by this cult organization have ever been exchanged alive. Surely their families won't know about this, will they? ”
Messi? Hanek waved his hand without looking back, he would mention this matter without Qiu Fengyu's reminder. To be honest, he did have some doubts about hiring someone else, he had already made a guarantee, if it wasn't for his guarantee, he would definitely be the same as the head of the CIA in Washington, and finally left his post and became the laughing stock of the industry. He can't afford to lose.
Waiting for Messi? After Haneke left, everyone in the family went to the living room, and they just wanted to avoid it, so they didn't come. After they sat down, Qiu Fengyu told them about the matter.
"Are you going to go alone?" It was Davis who asked, and he shook his head at Qiu Fengyu and said, "Boss, we are together, you can't get rid of us and do it alone!" Davis's words immediately alarmed the others. Sandraru frowned, and Ryoko Yonekura didn't look good.
"Yes, I'm trying to go it alone, guys, it's a big $5 million deal." Qiu Fengyu smiled, "To be honest, which is easier to make a movie than to make money like this?" I'd rather make money like this, I can't stand the long hours of making movies. It's really torturous. Alright, guys, don't do that, we can do it together. ”
"How can we be guaranteed to act together?" Davis on the side was not fooled, the last time Miranda was the result of Qiu Fengyu acting alone. So they were all a little dissatisfied. This guy always likes to sneak around alone. But this time it was far more thrilling than Miranda's.
The rainforests of the Amazon. Even if there are no enemies in it, it is full of dangers, and nature is the greatest enemy. It's easy to get lost, and it's easy to be attacked by poisonous snakes and beasts, and you may even die from unknown small poisonous insects.
"If they agree to my terms, we'll leave together and board together. All right? Qiu Fengyu smiled, "To be honest, this time, I may really need your help." I can't do such a task alone. It was a challenge for me, so ...... Guys, get ready to go,"
"Boss, I love you to death!" Davis laughed and tried to pounce and bite on Qiu Fengyu's face, but was pushed away by Qiu Fengyu with disgust.
The whole process, Taro Suzuki watched from the sidelines. He was suddenly a little moved, these people were willing to take risks for Qiu Fengyu, without any orders and requirements, and no family members were threatened, just a simple request to fight side by side with Qiu Fengyu. He had never seen this before, and when he was on a mission before, he and his killers were mechanically following orders and then mechanically killing people. There has never been such a way as if they could give up for each other, and it was so easy.
When he was in a trance, suddenly a hand was on his shoulder, he turned his head and saw that it was Qiu Fengyu, he was facing Suzuki Taro and said solemnly: "Don't go to this mission, you came here to learn cooking, if you are allowed to take a knife and gun, it is to let you return to your old business, which is not in line with your original intention." ”
Suzuki Taro was stunned for a moment, and suddenly bowed ninety degrees to Qiu Fengyu, and then said very sincerely: "Master, please allow me to act together." You are my master, not only the master of cooking, but also the master of kendo, these days, my understanding of kendo has reached a new height, and this time is also the time to test my kendo. Please, Master, please come with me. ”
This guy is actually very sincere, like this, if Qiu Fengyu doesn't agree, he will not be willing to give up. Qiu Fengyu was a little hesitant and looked at Sandra next to him. Sandra muttered, "I like this kid." Chief, maybe we take him with us when we need him, we live together, let's act together. ”
Ryoko Yonekura also nodded and said, "I still have a say in Taro Suzuki, since he wants to test his achievements in kendo, then...... Why not let him go? As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Qiu Fengyu.
Qiu Fengyu shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "Okay, guys, since you all agree, then let's go together." Who calls us family? ”
"It's a pity...... It would be nice if Tim was here!" Davis on the side seemed to be a little regretful and said, "He always participated in the action before, but he went to be a soldier, what the hell, why do you have to be a soldier?" Can't the boss say that he has been groomed to be the person he wants to be? ”
Qiu Fengyu looked at him, and then smiled: "Yes, he came back, we are together, even if he goes to be a soldier, he will still come back to us to fight together." He patted Davis on the shoulder, "Since we've all decided to go, why don't we have a drink together?" ”
Davis applauded, and at this time, Ryoko Yonekura poured cold water on him: "Hey, guys, don't be too optimistic, that CIA director may not be able to promise us." The decisions we make now may not be of any use. We're not necessarily going to be approved, because that's not a small amount, five million dollars, and we're probably going to be the most expensive mercenary. ”
"Yes, if it were the U.S. government, of course I wouldn't be so optimistic, they would never spend five million to rescue three bullshit hostages. But the families of these three people can't say it well. They're all rich people, who cares about more than a million dollars? Their lives are worth more than a million dollars. Qiu Fengyu is full of confidence.
In the office of the director of the CIA, Messi? Haneke was talking to the family members of the three hostages. One is Katarina, the wife of a California legislator? Ms. Dior, in her sixties, still maintains a relatively good figure and demeanor, and does not look very old. The other is Congressman Asa? Kingsley, in his fifties, is a burly man, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, his hair is combed back, and he looks a little serious. The other is the financial oligarch Williams? Pucci came here in person. The oligarch was not yet fifty years old, and he looked very young, not very strong, a little thin, but he looked a little tall. After all, the status of these three hostages in the family is very high. Very highly valued.
"I don't care what you do, I just need my daughter to come back safely!" Williams? Pucci's attitude was very clear, "I can give money, I can give as much as I want, I just need my daughter to come back." You have to assure me of that. His tone was not negotiable.
"We can send troops, and even if the Peruvian government doesn't agree, we should use surprise attacks. Let our elite special forces do it. The Congressman's idea was simple, "Or we would have an exchange of interests with the Peruvian government......"
Messi? Haneke coughed dryly and said, "Mr. Kingsley, we're already doing it. But we can't do it in the name of the U.S. government, unless you can push Congress to make some deal with the Peruvian government, or we're going to have to quietly send people over, we're forming mercenaries. The question of the cost ......"
"How much does it cost?" Is it Williams who is asking? Pucci, he is against Messi? "Don't go around in circles, we will solve problems that can be solved with money." Aren't they asking for a ransom? Okay, we'll give money, $200 million, right? I'll give half out alone, and the two of you together will give half out! ”
"It's not about money, the U.S. government won't compromise with terrorists, that's what it's always been like." The woman Katarina, who hasn't spoken all the time? Ms. Dior just looked at Williams? "So...... I am against the ransom payment, this is my attitude, I don't care what you decide! ”
This woman's attitude is really tough. Williams? Pucci was about to speak, when he heard Messi? Haneke said: "Everyone, don't fight, we're here to solve the problem, and ...... I fully agree with Ms. Dior's words, there is no precedent for them to kidnap anyone and come back alive. ”
So that congressman perked up and faced Messi? "We're going to shoot the most elite soldiers past and make a surprise attack, and maybe we still have a chance of success," Haneke said. We can't wait, the soldier is fast, this is what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, I went to West Point. ”
"Okay, guys, I'm not going to go around in circles. Now we have found the most elite mercenaries, the people I trust the most, who have done a great job in Iraq to protect the Undersecretary of Defence. Now the condition is that we need money. Five million dollars. That's their offer, I guess...... I've tried to convince him, but the price is non-negotiable. So...... We're sitting here now, and the sooner we come to a conclusion, the more we'll be able to get the hostages back alive. He clapped his hands and spread them out again to the three of them.
"The U.S. government will pay." Congressman Asa? Kingsley immediately said, "This expenditure has to be paid for by the government, and we are the victims...... Damn, those bitches can't just send our soldiers over? We have some of the best soldiers in the world...... "The congressman is still wrestling with the frustration that the U.S. government can't send troops directly. (To be continued.) )
