Chapter 129: The Insider

When looking at the information brought by Wang Dong, Muhammad frowned and his face was very ugly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Four European and American companies are all associated with the Nayef King Store!

FN was introduced by the former secretary of Crown Prince Nayef, the general manager of H&K's Saudi branch had previously worked in the Ministry of the Interior, Beretta had obtained the news of the tender through the Ministry of the Interior, and the president of Barrett had approached Crown Prince Nayef before bidding.

Even the Kalashnikov company is actively courting Crown Prince Nayef.

Apparently, all five companies believe that none of them take Prince Mohammed seriously if they were able to influence the tender through Crown Prince Nayef.

Three days is enough time for Nicholas to find out these insiders.

Of course, that's not all.

In order to win the contract, H&K bought off a senior official of the Ministry of the Interior, linked up with the Ministry of Defense, and secretly bribed at least five senior officials of the Ministry of Defense.

Beretta was even more explicit, gifting a Sicilian villa to the official in charge of the tender for the Ministry of Defence.

Barrett has been overbearing, repeatedly hinting that if it doesn't win the contract, it will make the American security companies end their operations in Yemen.

Kalashnikov did not pay bribes, but said it could control arms destined for Yemen.

Relatively speaking, FN is honest.

It's just that these are "insiders".

Since it is an "insider", it can't be put on the table.

Even if Prince Mohammed was very angry, it was impossible to make a fuss about such unfounded inside information, let alone attack the crown prince.

"What are you going to do?"

Before Wang Dong could speak, Muhammad said, "You should know that these things can only be seen by me. Even if I believe you and know that these are facts, that's all. It is obviously impossible to use these materials to change the current situation. ”

"I have one more document here."

Muhammad was slightly stunned, and Wang Dong handed over a folder.

"It's ......"

"Profitability Assessment."

Mohammed looked at Wang Dong incomprehensibly, this was a trade secret, but it did not help much to win the tender contract from the Saudi Ministry of Defense.

"Based on the contract amount of 100 million US dollars, if we do it, the net profit can be up to 15 million US dollars."

Muhammad nodded and asked Wang Dong to continue.

"D&F is a small business, just like that, most of the employees are shareholders, hold the original shares, and count on dividends after profits, so our operating costs are much lower than those of large companies. Although large enterprises have advantages in technology, especially in production technology, which can reduce the cost of mass production, the purchase volume of 2,000 pieces is obviously not large-scale production, and it is difficult to give full play to the advantages of large enterprises. ”

"And then?"

"According to our estimates, if four European and American companies do it, they will all lose money."

"The purchase price of $50,000 is still a loss?"

"Counting the design, the development of new abrasives, and the targeted improvements, it will definitely be a loss, not to mention the maintenance services in the later stage."

Muhammad did not dwell on this issue, perhaps he was not very sensitive to numbers.

"So, why are they so positive?"

"If all goes well, after the special forces are re-equipped, we will consider a re-outfit for the army, and at least two hundred thousand rifles will be procured."

Wang Dong nodded and said, "Then, the Saudi Army will definitely use standard-caliber ammunition." ”

"Of course."

"Obviously, these companies are eyeing the next deal, so even if they lose money now, they have to get this contract."

Muhammad nodded, indicating that this was what he meant.

"It's going to be the future, but in my opinion, D&F can still win the bid."

"Why?"

"We can open a factory in Saudi Arabia, provide a production line, and transfer related technology, so as to significantly reduce the cost of life use."

"You should know that price is not critical."

Wang Dong smiled faintly and said: "Of course, we can use DF66 as a basis to develop a rifle that uses standard caliber bullets. ”

"I'm sure you have what it takes."

"In other words, the key is to win the current contract."

"Musharraf told me that you have a way to beat several other companies."

"Now, they're doing things."

Muhammad looked at Wang Dong and waited for Wang Dong to continue.

"If you're doing things, let's make things bigger."

"How do you make things bigger?"

Wang Dong smiled coldly and said: "The war in Yemen is in full swing, and there has been no result after so many years of fighting, otherwise His Highness would not consider purchasing new firearms for the special forces." Besides, weapons are used for use, and when it comes to the battlefield, isn't it clear who is good and who is bad? ”

"It takes time, and there's no reason for special forces officers and soldiers to charge with unshaped guns."

"It won't take much time, and your special forces are only responsible for supervising the entire process of use."

"What do you mean?"

"As long as Your Highness agrees, I can arrange for the personnel of the 'Angu' company to accompany your special forces to Yemen and use our weapons."

Muhammad was stunned and looked at Wang Dong in disbelief.

"Of course, I'm not sure if other companies will do that."

"Let them retreat?"

"If one or two companies can exit, there will be one or two fewer competitors, and that's a good thing."

"What if there are still a few companies that won't quit?"

"See you on the battlefield."

Muhammad pondered for a while before he said: "This is indeed a solution, but it cannot be proposed by you, but by us." ”

Wang Dong didn't say anything, in fact, he also meant it.

"Those companies pointed out that there was an unfair situation in the bidding process and asked for a new test, so they went to the battlefield to do the test." Muhammad paused for a moment, then added, "To make them accept the final result, you have to use standard-caliber bullets." ”

"No problem." Wang Dong agreed.

"How long will it take you to prepare?"

"Half a month."

"Then it's scheduled in half a month."

"For the specific situation, I asked Mura to discuss it with His Highness. Half a month later, I will bring a group of people over to ensure that I will not disappoint His Highness. ”

"Waiting for your good news."

Wang Dong did not dwell further and got up to say goodbye to Muhammad.

In fact, Wang Dong had long expected that Muhammad would not refuse his proposal.

Quite simply, the purchase of arms is just a name, and what Mohammed really wants is the support of Wang Dong, that is, those personnel of the "Angu" company.

Isn't a real combat operation also testing the combat effectiveness of this team?
