Chapter 547: Alliance Meeting
Having solved the matter of the arms trade, Dule has another thing to do. He had to go to a meeting. This was an impromptu meeting convened by Charif after learning that Durle had returned to the island.
The six allies of the Earth Defense Force, all of whom sent national representatives, came to the main island. The purpose is to hold a meeting of the alliance of the island nation Earth Defense Force to discuss how to cooperate more closely within the alliance in the face of the threat of aliens.
Countries D and West in Europe, which have faced the threat of alien warships, have even more strongly demanded that a high-level internal meeting of the Earth Defense Force be held to determine the framework for cooperation within the meeting.
And Du Le, as the actual commander of the Earth Defense Force, naturally cannot be absent from this important meeting. However, it is also good that Du Le also wants to announce the achievements of the island nation on the moon to all the allies at the meeting, so as to increase the confidence of the members of the Earth Defense Force in defeating the aliens.
Although this meeting was an ad hoc meeting convened by Sharif, the standard and level of the meeting were still very high. As an ally of the Earth Defense Force, the delegates sent to the meeting are all first-class and first-class top figures, either at the level of heads of governments or powerful figures with heavy military forces in various countries.
For example, the prime minister and defense minister of country D, the prime minister and defense minister of western country, the commander of the whole army of Uda, the prime minister of country T, and the defense minister and military commissar of China...... All of them are powerful figures in their respective countries.
As for the temporary convening of the island nation, not only did the countries not complain, but arrived at the island country in a short period of time and responded to the call. It can be seen that the importance that countries attach to this meeting just reflects that their governments have attached great importance to the potential threat of aliens attacking the earth at any time.
It is precisely because of the preciousness of the identity of the people who came to the meeting this time that as the island country of the host's family, they naturally did not dare to slack off. Not only does it guarantee the best level of service in terms of reception details, but it also has been upgraded to the highest level in terms of security. If you are in an island country at this time. It's not hard to notice. Even the air in the island country has become particularly serious.
On the same day, the meeting was officially held.
Du Le stood in front of the representatives of various countries, facing the fierce and serious eyes of the dignitaries. No stage fright. The gang in front of you. Guess in their hearts. I really hope to get some good news from the island country to eliminate the repression in recent days.
Du Le did not talk nonsense at the beginning, nor did he play official. Directly announced the news that everyone is most concerned about: "The space fighter of the Earth Defense Force has successfully defeated the alien warship!" β
When the senior officials of various countries heard this, although they were not surprised, it seemed that they had already smelled some wind and grass while the island countries were waiting for the meeting to be held, but from the joyful eyes they revealed, it was not difficult to see that this was undoubtedly a powerful reassuring agent for them, and appeased them, because after learning the news of the fierce attack on the earth by aliens, they were worried all day long.
Seeing this, Du Le's heart was very calm, this is the expected effect he needs. Although under Du Le's continuous efforts, the island country does have the conditions to compete with the aliens, but this has not been recognized by all the countries on the earth, and not all countries can accept the situation of the island country leading the battle with the aliens in the near future.
The big countries can't put on a posture, and the small countries still want to see the development of the situation, so before the full convincing power is presented, the island countries will not be able to achieve it, and most or even all of the countries will be concentrated, with the island countries as the leaders, and unanimously focus on the plan to fight against aliens.
In this regard, Du Le understands and can give great patience, and slowly guides other countries step by step to identify and accept the island country.
However, no matter how generous the conditions that the island nation can provide to the allies who are willing to join the Earth Defense Force, it is naturally not comparable, and it proves that the report card that the Earth Defense Force can successfully defeat the aliens is more convincing.
Therefore, seeing the reaction of the dignitaries in front of him, Du Le smiled slightly, he was very confident, what he was going to say next, the representatives of these allies, after hearing it, would definitely not be calm anymore.
"We defeated the alien battleship, and the alien battleship became a trophy and placed in a lunar outpost." Du Le was very understated and put such an explosive news on the scene.
Sure enough, as soon as Du Le's words were spoken, the faces of the representatives of various countries immediately showed expressions of horror that could not be concealed. They really didn't expect that the island country would have such a powerful combat strength, not only did its space fighters really defeat, but the alien warships that had been wreaking havoc on the earth and Europe and other places in recent days also captured this alien warship!
At this moment, many people in the conference room showed excited looks, staring at Du Le, waiting for the news that Du Le was going to announce next.
When Du Le saw the expressions of these people, he didn't need to guess at all, he could know what they were thinking in their hearts.
It's nothing more than two words, interests! These people must have taken a fancy to the alien technology on the alien warship. They must be concerned about what the island nation will do with the spoils and whether they will be able to get a piece of the pie.
Of course, in order to attract more people, Du Le might as well satisfy their psychology a little.
So, Du Le smiled and said: "The outpost of the moon belongs to the island country. However, for the allies who are willing to join the Earth Defense Force and form a line with the island nation, the island nation will definitely not hesitate to take the opportunity to become strong together with all allies. Therefore, the island nation can open this outpost on the moon to our allies, so that we can study this alien warship together. β
However, there are some limitations in this regard, and I would appreciate your understanding. Because so far, the support capacity of the lunar outpost is still limited enough to support a large number of people to conduct research on it for long periods of time, so we still need to limit the number of scientific researchers. For this, we have to express our regret.
After careful consideration, we have come up with such a recommendation. I hope that we, the seven countries that have formed an alliance. They can dispatch their best scientific researchers or professional technicians to jointly form a scientific research team with a total number of no more than 30 people, and as the first batch of expatriate scientific researchers, they will set off to the lunar outpost together to jointly develop and research the alien technology on this alien warship.
Of course, any technical achievements obtained by this scientific research team on alien warships can be shared among our seven countries, and absolutely no unnecessary threshold is set. Du Le continued.
DΓΌller's proposal. The head is the way. Naturally, it was unanimously endorsed by the representatives of the other six countries.
In fact, for the remaining six countries, as long as the island nation agrees, they have the opportunity to board the alien warship. They already feel the sincerity that the island country has given them. already thinks. It's worth it to join the Earth Defense Force of the island nation. Although the statements of the island side can be shared. It does not necessarily mean that it is completely unconditional sharing, but the representatives of various countries have no objections to this, and what they need is indeed in the name of joint development.
However, although the representatives of various countries unanimously agreed and accepted Du Le's suggestion, there was still a fierce dispute between the representatives of various countries. It turned out that as soon as the representatives of these six countries heard that Du Le would limit the number of scientific researchers sent to the lunar outpost, they habitually, even reflexively, wanted to maximize the benefits for their country. This seems to have become the scene that will never be drawn at any international conference.
This time, the focus of everyone's dispute is naturally focused on the number of scientific researchers sent by each country.
Du Le actually expected this scene to happen, after all, judging from the lineup, it seems that the more scientists who can be dispatched, the more scientific and technological techniques can be cracked, the greater the possibility of technology, and the greater the benefits that can be obtained. Therefore, each country must hope that its country can send a few more scientists in different fields to get greater benefits.
The entire lunar outpost, nominally belonging to the island nation. There is no need for the government of the island country to get involved in this dispute and fight for a place in the research team. Therefore, after asking Du Le's opinion in advance, Sharif generously announced in front of this group of dignitaries who had already blushed to each other that the island nation only needed two places to participate in the scientific research team. The remaining 28 places will be given to the six allies for mutual agreement.
The indisputability of the island country, from another point of view, is the posture of putting oneself in the position of the master's family. This is the outward appearance that is presented to the delegates of various countries. In fact, Du Le naturally would not be stupid enough to take out all the places and let these people divide them, and the thirty places were actually the space that was left vacant after Du Le had set aside most of the places for the island nation in advance. Therefore, it is enough for the island countries to occupy two more places.
What's more, this is only an arrangement made for the front speed warship, and how many technical personnel the island country can send to the moon, of course, Du Le knows in his heart.
Therefore, after making clear the attitude of the island countries at the meeting, Tule stayed out of the matter and left the representatives of these countries to discuss with each other and jointly divide the remaining places.
Of course, these places are not actually for every country, and they can take as many as they want. At the very least, the prerequisite for obtaining a quota is to ensure that scientists of a comparable level can be provided. Otherwise, it would be a waste of places, a waste of manpower and resources.
After some controversy in these countries, the quota arrangement was finally implemented.
Among them, country D and China received the most quotas, each with seven places, while Western country received five places. Just looking at these three countries, it is already possible to form at least three independent research groups.
The remaining nine places will be divided among other countries. Other countries are more likely to want a name to participate in research.
Du Le sat on the sidelines, and waited until all the places had been allocated to the countries, and then he stood on the rostrum again and told the delegates that they needed to select their own personnel according to the number of places within three days after returning home. After three days, all these scientific researchers will be gathered at the airport on the main island of the island country to board the plane, and the island country will take over the arrangement to carry out research missions to the lunar outpost.
At the meeting, the prime minister of country D openly stated that on behalf of the people of country D, he thanked the island country and the pilots of the space fighters. In addition, they hope that the members of the island country space fighter will be able to visit country D.
Du Le told the Prime Minister of Country D that Country D is a member of the Earth Defense Force. It is the duty of the Space Defense Force to protect its member states. Twenty pilots of the space fighter planes are now on duty at the lunar outpost, and they will not be able to visit country D in the short term.
The Prime Minister of country D immediately stated that the people of country D would welcome the return of the hero at any time.
After the prime minister of country D expressed his gratitude, the minister of defense of country D immediately put forward a request, that is, he urgently hoped that the island country could sell them a batch of island country space fighters to defend the mainland.
The words of the Minister of Defense of Country D have just fallen. Other delegates in the room. They also said that they meant the same as country D, hoping to buy space fighters.
Hearing this, Du Le smiled slightly. said: "In order to increase the strength of the Earth Defense Force. On the part of our island nations. Willing to sell 100 space fighters to allies"
Before Du Le finished speaking, the prime minister of country D replied: "The government of country D is willing to buy 100 space fighters!" β
"No way!" The Minister of Defense of the Western Kingdom panicked and hurriedly said: "We also want to buy space fighters." β
Representatives of the six countries present. All of them are expressed to varying degrees, expressing their desire for space fighters.
Du Le smiled at the prime minister of country D and said: "These 100 space fighters are what the island country can immediately take out and sell to its allies in the near future. Therefore, we hope that our allies within the defense force will allocate these space fighters according to their own conditions. The goal is to establish national divisions of the Earth Defense Force. β
When the prime minister of country D heard this, he said domineeringly: "Our country can understand that our country wants to obtain 50 space fighters, and the island country will send personnel to train our pilots." β
"This will not work, if country D can get 50 planes, the western country will also get 50 planes." The Prime Minister of the West said.
When the prime minister of country D heard this, he was a little dissatisfied with the interference of the prime minister of the western country.
Seeing that the representatives of the two allies were about to quarrel, Du Le hurriedly said: "In order to support the ability of the allies to fight against alien warships, we are willing to trade space fighters at cost price, and each member state can obtain the right to purchase at least ten space fighters." The remaining surplus space fighters will be sold according to the situation. β
The prime minister of country T asked curiously: "I don't know what kind of transaction procedure is it to trade space fighters at cost price?" β
Du Le smiled and said: "Under normal circumstances, island countries do not lack foreign exchange, so our island countries do not want to trade space fighters in the way of currency transactions. After all, the production resources of island countries are extremely scarce, and countries can transport a batch of production resources of space fighters to trade space fighters at a lower cost instead of currency. β
When the prime minister of country T heard this, his interest increased and he began to ask in detail what kind of resources the island country needed.
Country T is a small country in Southeast Asia, and its military strength and economic strength are not as good as China, country D, and Western countries.
Besides, since joining the Earth Defense Force. The top leaders of country T found that they had gained a lot of benefits.
For example, the short-range laser cannon mastered by the military of country T is an advanced weapon at the world level.
Among the countries in Southeast Asia, only island countries have such weapons and equipment.
This also makes country T desperately follow in the footsteps of the Earth Defense Force.
In the second batch of new students from the top universities of science and technology in the island country, excluding China, country T sent the largest number of students.
Du Le also learned this information in the report of Sharif and Oda Morizo.
Coupled with some things that Du Le had done, he felt guilty about country T. Therefore, Du Le is very tolerant of country T and has a good impression of it.
Therefore, Du Le gave a detailed explanation to the prime minister of country T.
If the military of country T has space fighters, it will have a force that cannot be ignored in Southeast Asia. Even the government of country M does not dare to ignore country T easily.
Du Le not only gave a detailed answer to the Prime Minister of Country T, but also handed the Prime Minister of Country T a catalogue. On the catalog, it is all the production resources that the island country needs, and if you give a certain amount of resources to the island country, you will get points. Country T only needs to pay some production resources to get the Space Fighter.
This directory made the prime minister of country T very excited.
Because, according to the information above. The production resources collected by country T in the country can obtain a space fighter without spending less than five million dollars.
Delegates from other countries, seeing the expression of the Prime Minister of country T, also asked for a catalogue file from Independence.
Du Le did not refuse, arranged for the staff, copied several resource catalogs, and handed them to the delegates of the participating countries.
The Minister of National Defense of China is a high-ranking member of the Chinese Empire, and he has been involved in many confidential transactions, and when he saw Du Le's catalogue documents, he suddenly realized in his heart.
It turns out that all the production resources purchased by the island countries in China are in this catalog.
The Minister of Defense of China wanted to say something, but thinking of the secret agreement between the island country and China, and between the two countries, he decided to remain silent.
The Chinese side could not help but remain silent, and they read the contents of the document. After a little calculation, we can see that the plan for the transformation of fighter planes between China and the island countries is more in line with China's interests.
Moreover, according to the understanding of the Chinese side, there are now two kinds of space fighters in the Earth Defense Force, one is a modified space fighter based on the J-16, and the other is a modified space fighter based on a certain fighter in country M.
The Chinese government understands that the performance of these two types of fighters is actually almost the same. The Chinese side can also understand the reason why the island country chose the fighter plane of country M as the blueprint.
The reason is very simple, that is, the Chinese government will not sell fighter production lines to island countries. The government of the island country, in turn in country M, purchased an old fighter production line.
Today, the island country is able to mass-produce space fighters, which is obviously a transformation of the fighter production line.
The 100 space fighters to be sold this time are space planes based on a certain fighter in country M.
However, there are two considerations for Du Le's sale of these 100 space fighters.
First, reassure the members of the Earth Defense Force and give them sweetness, so that they can follow behind the Earth Defense Force led by the island nation with peace of mind.
Second, the sale of 100 fighters is mainly for the purpose of selling them in limited quantities, with the intention of improving the space combat effectiveness of the allies of the earth and training the pilots of the allies by the way.
The reason is simple, that is, Dooler does not need useless allies.
However, until the space fighters controlled by the Earth Defense Force reach a certain level, Du Le will not sell space fighters on a large scale. Du Le needs the island nation to be the only one in the Earth Defense Force to have the leadership.
At the meeting, Du Le also emphasized the role of top science and technology in passing, and directly told the member countries of the Earth Defense Force that the top science and technology is the place where the island nation cultivates high-tech talents.
As soon as Du Le's remarks came out, the interest of high-level representatives from various countries in top universities of science and technology increased greatly.
As soon as the internal meeting of the Earth Defense Force ended, high-level representatives of various countries immediately expressed their willingness to visit the top university of science and technology to Sharif.
In order to improve the status of top science and technology and let top science and technology play a greater role, Du Le is naturally not allowed. In order to increase the capacity of students, the expansion of the top university of science and technology has also entered the development plan of Du Le. (To be continued......)
