After putting down the phone, Wu Chen looked at Marcas who was negotiating opposite, as well as the Brazilian Minister of Defense, and felt a little surprised. www.biquge.info According to my memory, didn't Brazil want to buy a French decommissioned aircraft carrier, why did it want to customize a medium-sized aircraft carrier this time?

I thought that the big winners this time were Russia and South Africa, who knows, Brazil and Argentina came to the door, Brazil wants to customize a medium aircraft carrier with a displacement of 55,000 tons, and an attack nuclear submarine, Argentina wants a medium aircraft carrier, two battleships and four destroyers, both countries name the Tu-22M3 strategic bomber.

Brazil has always been fond of aircraft carriers, and so has Argentina, both countries have old British-built aircraft carriers, known as Colossus-class light aircraft carriers, and are equipped with outdated hydraulic catapults, which are not even as large in tonnage as amphibious assault ships.

"Your Excellency Wu Chen, we in Brazil and the Golden Triangle Federation have always cooperated well, and we would like to thank you for investing in mining in Brazil and leasing the Delta-class ballistic missile nuclear submarine to us. This time, in addition to buying France's decommissioned aircraft carriers, we will also build a new medium aircraft carrier to create a strong navy to defend Brazil's sovereignty. ”

"We know that you not only have a close relationship with the U.S. government, but also with the Russian government, so you will not be embarrassed when it comes to steam catapults, and as for nuclear submarines, you have many of the world's most advanced models, and this is not a problem."

"In return, the Brazilian government will increase preferential policies for your company, and purchase 24 Shield Defender 1 carrier-based aircraft and 20 An-70 tactical transport aircraft, I hope that Your Excellency will agree to our request for the sake of friendship between the two countries." Brazil's defense minister said to Wu Chen. For such a big thing as the creation of aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines, Marcas himself did not dare to make a decision, so he could only push it to his boss.

"The Federal Government of the Golden Triangle naturally cherishes the friendship with the Brazilian Government, and I have agreed to your request, but I would like to remind Your Excellency that aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines are veritable gold-swallowing beasts, and they still cost a small amount of money when they are manufactured, and the cost in the future will be very amazing." Wu Chen smiled and said.

"Before I made this request to you, after half a year of discussions between our government and the military, and the president also approved this investment, there is no problem in terms of funding, I wonder what else we can do for you?" This was stated by the Minister of Defense of Brazil.

This is an aircraft carrier, this is a nuclear submarine, all of them are the weapons of a big country, Wu Chen agreed to this request, it is very face-saving to say. The key is not in the aircraft carrier itself, but in the technology of steam catapults, anyway, the United States will not sell aircraft carriers to foreign countries, let alone forward the technology of steam catapults.

Since the other party agrees to such a request, it must have its own interests, there is no free lunch in the world, to put it bluntly, there is an exchange of interests between countries and countries.

"I have invested a lot in mineral resources, and it is impossible to increase mines in the short term, so my Atlantis Mineral Resources company needs exclusive exploration rights and exploitation rights for oil and gas resources in the eastern and southern seas of Brazil, although there is no data to show the existence of oil and gas fields in these seas for the time being, but I still want to gamble."

"In addition, I have good news to share with you, the Russian government will transfer a total of 31 Viktor-class 2 and 3 attack nuclear submarines, and the US government will transfer 20 Sturgeon-class attack nuclear submarines and 20 Lafayette-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines to our mercenary group next month."

"Your Excellency also knows that our mercenary corps is not short of nuclear submarines right now, whether it is attack nuclear submarines, cruise missile nuclear submarines or ballistic missile nuclear submarines, so I am ready to deal with this batch of nuclear submarines in the form of lease, and Brazil can have a priority option." Wu Chen offered a price code.

"Thank you for your support for the construction of the Brazilian Navy, I can now reply to you on behalf of the Brazilian government, there will be absolutely no problem with this condition, and when the official contract is signed, this article will be included in it. As for nuclear submarines, we will keep the option of three attack nuclear submarines and two ballistic missile nuclear submarines, and you will definitely be satisfied in terms of price! The Brazilian Minister of Defense said excitedly, his body trembling slightly.

The Brazilian government also carried out exploration in the eastern and southern seas, and hired German and American exploration teams to do the work, but due to technical reasons at the time, no large areas of oil and gas resources were discovered.

Based on the results of the exploration at that time, the government came to the conclusion that although there were a little oil and gas reserves in the coastal areas, the input-output was not proportional and the exploitation was of little significance, so it did not continue to increase exploration efforts.

There are seventy-one nuclear submarines for the Brazilian military to choose from, such a treatment is simply beyond imagination, although this is a second-hand nuclear submarine, but the problem is that, except for the mercenary corps, it is a dream to lease nuclear submarines.

But for Wu Chen, the tens of billions of barrels of crude oil on the seabed of these two seas must be in his hands, even if he wants to start a war, he will not hesitate to start a war! Now that the Brazilian government has what it wants, it is a good opportunity to occupy resources openly from the contract side, and even if it turns around and goes to war in the future, it will be famous.

"Your Excellency, although our mineral resources in Argentina are not as rich as Brazil, it is reasonable to say that you are also welcome to invest and develop in our country, and the Argentine government will give the most preferential policies, and I hope that Your Excellency will also agree to our request."

"We will purchase 24 Shield Guardian 1 carrier-based aircraft, 24 Shield Guardian 1 road-based fighters, 10 Tu-22M3 strategic bombers, 20 An-70 tactical transport aircraft, four attack nuclear submarines, and the kind of anti-ship cruise missiles on Oscar-class cruise missile nuclear submarines." This was stated by the Minister of Defense of Argentina.

"A medium-sized aircraft carrier, two battleships and four destroyers, a fighter Cato-22M3 strategic bomber, a medium-sized aircraft carrier equipped with a steam catapult will cost at least $2.3 billion, two battleships will cost $2 billion even if they are simplified, four destroyers will cost $800 million each, a total of $2.4 billion, a total of $6.7 billion, and four attack nuclear submarines, each of which will cost $300 million per year."

"It costs $31.2 billion to buy 24 Shield Defender-1 carrier-based aircraft, $2.2 billion to purchase 24 Shield Defender-1 road-based fighters, $2 billion to buy 10 Tu-22M3 strategic bombers, and $80 million to each An-70 tactical transport plane, a total of $1.6 billion, and the total quota will reach $17 billion. Wu Chen asked.
