Officials claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was a counterattack to Latif for the assault on official forces. Then they will take it a step further. Cracking down on guerrilla forces, officials said they would intensify their efforts to ......"
Today's news was on TV, and a bearded man with a typical Middle Eastern face, looking about forty years old, sat silently at a dinner table. Outside the window is a manor, quiet and peaceful. The morning sunlight poured into the dining room through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and it was warm.
White tablecloths, sterling silver candlesticks. The fireplace was burning quietly. After a while, I saw an Asian figure pushing a food cart to open the door of the restaurant and walk in. He smiled and placed the steak in front of the Middle Easterner in front of the Middle Easterner, and served some salad.
"I know you don't drink, so I didn't prepare a pre-dinner drink." saw the Asian man looking at him and said softly: "Come~ Try my cooking." I haven't made steaks in a while, and hopefully my craft hasn't regressed. Otherwise, my teacher will be sad. ā
With that, the man placed another steak in front of him. Then he sat down in the chair across from the Middle Easterner. I saw that the Middle Eastern man opened his mouth and wanted to say something. But the Asian man waved his hand slightly: "Nothing is bigger than a meal, and you're sitting here now." So we don't have to rush, we can eat something first and then talk slowly. What we have is time, don't we? ā
"Mr. Khalid. Since you have asked to see me, you have heard my assurances with your own ears. Well, you trust me. Seeing this Asian smile, he said softly: "Since you trust me, you don't have to worry." Our problems can be discussed slowly. ā
The Middle Eastern man, Khaled, was silent for a moment before picking up his knife and fork to cut the steak in front of him. It seems that he is very familiar with the use of knives and forks, and there is not the slightest bit of jerkiness. It's very simple and straightforward, and without the slightest sound of scraping a plate, the steak is cut into small pieces and put into the mouth.
It can also be seen from this that Khalid was well educated in etiquette. And being able to receive a good etiquette education shows that Khaled's background is not simple. Khalid cut the steak in silence and gently put it in his mouth.
After chewing for a while, he lowered his head and whispered, "Sir, you know what I request." In fact, I also asked to see you in person because of a specific request made to you. Of course, these are not without a price. I will pay for your satisfaction......"
The Asian man slowly put down his knife and fork, crossed his hands in front of his chin and whispered, "Oh?!" Why not bring it up directly with the service provider?! Now that you've found them, you must be able to trust them. I believe that your status in it is not low. Of course, I have no intention of probing your identity. ā
"Sir, the credibility of jackal mercenaries has never been an issue. Yes, although there is no problem with the credibility of the service provider. But I'd rather be able to talk to the person directly involved in it. The Middle Eastern man slowly put down his knife and fork and said in a deep voice: "What I have mastered is very complicated. There are many situations involved. ā
This Asian man is naturally the current head of the jackal - Hou Dasheng. And the man in front of Hou Dasheng was the intelligence source on the service provider's side. Khalid quickly demanded that he must meet with Hou Dasheng after receiving an accurate answer.
Hou Dasheng was still in Baghdad at the time, and he left after the fork was completed. Returned to Paris, and then met with the Khalid in the neutral area provided by the service provider. Hou Dasheng was curious about what great things Khalid had mastered. So much so that the service providers suggested that Hou Dasheng listen to him.
"Well, you say. I'm listening. Hou Dasheng sat down in a chair, smiled at Khalid and said, "If you have the information, it is extremely valuable. Then it's okay to make some requests that are within our means. ā
Hou Dasheng's words left himself a lot of room for maneuver. First of all, the intelligence is extremely valuable, and secondly, it must be within the power of the jackal. The words were not bitten to death, and Hou Dasheng left enough room for himself. In this way, even if he refuses, there is room for refusal.
Khalid was silent for a while, and then opened his hoarse voice to state what he knew to Hou Dasheng: "Do you know 'investors'?!" ā
Investor?! If it was someone else, or Hou Dasheng would not have been surprised to hear this name on other occasions. But the word came out of Khalid's mouth, and it was clearly not right. Hou Dasheng looked at Khalid coldly and didn't say a word.
"You and the jackal this time, the main actor has a relationship with the investor." Khalid lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "An investment from investors, because you have established a large number of PMCs, which caused them to lose a part of their orders. At the same time, it threatens other industries......"
After a pause, Khalid raised his head and continued: "The investors don't care about this, but the serious thing is that the investors who accept the investor's resources and funds are very panicked. The investor's investment must not be wasted, if he does not provide the investor with sufficient profits. Then he will become a profit ...... for investors"
Investor, this is an international organization like a service provider. Hou Dasheng learned about this organization from the information of the service provider. This organization is very tight, and the service provider has not carefully explored their internal affairs in order to avoid conflicts with them.
There is even a certain amount of cooperation between the two sides. For example, Hou Dasheng, as a director of the service provider, knows that there is a "city of angels" in South America. That city is the result of the cooperation between investors and service providers. Of course, there is also an organization inside. It's called "The Watchman".
The specific situation, Hou Dasheng is not very clear. It is possible for such organizations not to go to war as much as possible, otherwise it will be a huge loss for both sides. At this level, a war could lead to the total destruction of one of the two organizations. It could even be the destruction of both organizations.
So, the larger the organization, the more cautious it is. Investors and service providers are engaged in two different business concepts. There is no conflict between the two sides, and even to a certain extent, they complement each other. That's why there will be opportunities for cooperation.
Investors, they are primarily engaged in investing, as the name of their organization suggests. The difference is that they invest in no matter status, region, identity, or race...... And so on. They've invested in the Middle Eastern strongman, and they've invested in South American drug traffickers.
They invest in the mafia in Chicago and they also invest in members of the U.S. Congress. They invest in the guerrillas in Africa, but they also invest in the rebel armed forces. They don't care about each other's status, status, race, or region...... Wait, what they care about is how much they can get on their investment.
And their investment ...... Almost all of them are recovered several times more. Otherwise, what's the point of being an investor?! The service provider has not thoroughly investigated the investor's situation, but after all, the existence of both parties is mutually perceived. Over the years, more or less, there will be news of them in the hands of service providers.
The specific structure of the investor is not clear to the service provider and does not want to explore. But their model, the service provider is very clear. Start a war, or enter a war. Invest in certain forces, official, unofficial. Of course, the name is certainly not the investor itself.
A lot of people don't actually know that investors exist, and they are similar to service providers. And the time of their establishment is no longer available. Their members are also not examinable. ć
"So, he instigated an attack on the outer forces of the jackals......" Khalid looked at Hou Dasheng and said in a deep voice: "Of course, he was also terrified after the incident. He began to contact investors, and there was a lot of controversy on the part of investors. There are people who don't want to do things that aren't related to investment. But some people feel that you hurt their investment ......"
Hou Dasheng remained silent, while Khalid kept stating what he knew. Hou Dasheng's face remained unchanged, but in fact, his heart was already turbulent! He considered that the establishment of his PMC would definitely hurt the interests of some people.
But I didn't expect someone to react so quickly. Hou Dasheng listened to Khaled's statement in silence and did not say a word.
āā¦ā¦ Perhaps, someone will talk to you soon. Khalid said in a deep voice: "What I can tell you is that this negotiation will determine whether you and the investor will become hostile. Investors are reluctant to engage in meaningless behavior in non-investment areas. But that doesn't stop them from defending who they invest in. That's their source of money, after all......"
Hou Dasheng looked at Khalid and said in a deep voice, "I have no intention of exploring your identity, but I need to know whether the source of the information is reliable. I still need to go through a series of verifications. It won't be too long. If we confirm that your sources are reliable, we will consider cooperating with you......"
