Chapter 458: Negotiation
Papu City is not big, not much different from Dong Hung City, and it is a trading city between Vietnam and the mainland.
When Zhou Yuanqiang arrived here, it was already dark, and Zhou Yuanqiang, who knew a little Vietnamese, found a hotel to live in, and did not rush to contact the mainland, but washed away the dust, and then turned his head back to make up for sleep. You must know that Zhou Yuanqiang, in order to maximize his interests, did not close his eyes much for almost a week. Crazy havoc on what the new America looks like.
's strong physique, after more than a week, also made Zhou Yuan feel unbearable.
rested beautifully for a night, although it was only about ten hours, but for a pervert like Zhou Yuanqiang, he was full of energy and vitality.
The reason why Zhou Yuanqiang went to Jinpu City, of course, was that it was too close to the mainland, less than 100 kilometers. In the blink of an eye, you can reach Dongxingfu; The second is, of course, Jinpu is a port city, with several large-tonnage berths, and there are often 10,000-ton giant ships docked here; Third, shortly after leaving the port, it will enter the territorial waters of China in the South China Sea.
As a condition for this exchange, it is impossible to satisfy the mainland side just by providing a fighter. If you want to imitate, or master some technology from it, you need to disassemble at least several planes before the results come out. What Zhou Yuanqiang has in mind is a five- to seven-level bumblebee. In this way, a transportation channel is required. You can't go to the mainland by yourself, and then find a place to take it out and let the mainland receive it, right? When the time comes, it will not be suspected?
But here, the giant ship can be transformed to accommodate five to seven bumblebees, and you can enter the protected area of the mainland navy in a few moments, and you don't have to worry about any accidents. What's more, Zhou Yuanqiang can explain very well how these bumblebees arrived by transport.
Of course, there is a premise for all this. It's about finding a giant ship that you can build at will.
In the early morning, Jinpu is busy on the wharf, large and small fish appear on the wharf after a night of fishing, and a large number of seafood is sent to the seafood market at the wharf, starting an active day of seafood trading. Since the Jinpu offshore is composed of a large number of reefs, the marine life is very abundant, and it is a very good fishing area. Zhou Yuanqiang also got up early in the morning, dressed in leisurely clothes, and appeared on this seafood port.
Compared with the high seafood prices in the hotel, the seafood in Jinpu Seafood Port is simply the price of cabbage, no wonder the owners of the seafood city make a lot of money. Zhou Yuanqiang, who is still a little citizen in essence, originally wanted to pick a few rare seafood and buy some, but when he thought of his purpose, he shook his head with a wry smile.
Like seafood, it is a very lucrative industry, the dragon and snake are chaotic, the third-rate nine sects, and all kinds of people have it.
Maybe a lot of people think they are small people. But in Zhou Yuanqiang's view, he doesn't think so. Their familiarity with the area alone is worth paying attention to. If you want to get the giant ship yourself, it's really hard to leave these people. It's not a matter of hard grabbing, and you still need someone to drive the boat for you when the time comes.
The seafood port is generally dispersed around seven o'clock. When Zhou Yuanqiang came, there was no ** at five or six o'clock, and some people with many customers were already sold out and were cleaning up their stalls.
Zhou Yuanqiang came over in a leisurely outfit, and the people here were all casual people who wanted to buy some seafood, and they didn't care too much. After all, there are many, many scattered people like this every day. If I want to say something small, I'm afraid that most of the scattered people are old women and old men, and not many young people come.
A few young, muscular young men were shirtless playing cards, and from the tattoos on their shoulders, arms, and backs, it was clear what their identity was.
What made Zhou Yuanqiang's eyeballs pop out even more was that. There was a young man shirtless, barefoot, one foot rubbing against a bench, nibbling on a sugar cane.
At first glance, Zhou Yuanqiang felt that this scene was so familiar, and thought about it carefully. I remembered, isn't this look a certain star movie clip that went crazy on the Internet?
Zhou Yuanqiang, who almost burst into laughter, naturally stared at the young man for a while.
"What do you see?"
Obviously, this young man's temper is not very good, and when he saw Zhou Yuanqiang staring at him, he was directly angry.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuanqiang's Vietnamese is barely passable, and he can understand what this sentence means. He didn't get angry, but walked into the tent where the people were playing cards, and said in his somewhat stiff Vietnamese dialect: "Young man, don't be so angry, it will hurt you." ”
If they don't make a sound, maybe they may not know that Zhou Yuanqiang is not Vietnamese, and when they speak up, listen to this Vietnamese. I know that it can't be a native.
Originally, a few young people who were playing cards, but just glanced at Zhou Yuanqiang, suddenly became interested, shouted, and put down the cards in their hands one after another, faintly surrounding Zhou Yuanqiang. A big brother shouted, "Where did you come from?" What do you want to do? ”
Zhou Yuanqiang just smiled, sat directly on a chair, and then put a small bag he brought on the table, and said, "What do you want to do?" It's nothing more than asking you for a small favor. He opened the small bag, and the $20,000 in it was immediately presented in front of several people.
The sound of their throats surging and swallowing saliva was incessant, and for them it was a lot of money, and it was their income for months of exhaustion.
Seeing their eyes red, Zhou Yuanqiang put the bag away, and he was not afraid of them
Then move... Don't grab. The only way to make them understand in an instant is to make them understand. "Who can't rob anyone." Since you have shown the money. I just want to make a sum of money for them, but who doesn't know what to do, can't make money, and has to work for themselves in vain.
When people reach a certain level, they will not covet this cheapness, and they will have motivation when they have money. If you want someone to help you die, you have to be willing to pay for it.
Fortunately, although these people were jealous of this money, they did not do it. The eldest brother said in a deep voice, "What help?" "Vietnam's dollar liquidity is very strong. Most people know about US dollars, unlike on the mainland. The proportion of people who have actually seen physical dollar bills is not very large.
Zhou Yuanqiang looked at the sea outside the seafood port and said, "I need a 20,000-ton giant ship." And with a little change. If this is done, the money will be yours. I can pay for the rental fee of the giant ship, but I hope to get the news tomorrow morning. ”
For something like this, I don't know how many people serve Zhou Yuanqiang with their butts at 10,000 US dollars, and the price of 20,000 US dollars has doubled, and I am afraid that they will not work hard to help?
Hearing that it was not a difficult matter, the eldest brother who was in the lead was so excited that he rubbed his hands, and said without hesitation: "There is absolutely no problem, in this Jinpu, there is nothing that our brothers can't do." "He's definitely not bragging, as a port city, you say there will be a shortage of others, but there will be no shortage of ships.
"It's just, this, haha, boss, you should know this ranks!"
Zhou Yuanqiang took out $10,000 from the bag, threw it into his hand, and said, "This is a deposit." After the deed is done, the other half is paid. Remember, the giant ship I need is not an ordinary giant ship, but one that can be used," he pointed to the sea in the distance, and made a common smuggling use
Force.
The other party was not surprised, took the money, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I can give you news at noon." ”
When Zhou Yuanqiang left, he didn't even give them the address, if they couldn't even find where they lived, how could they help themselves do this thing?
Back at the inn, you will be stimulated by the seafood port. Zhou Yuanqiang's breakfast was naturally solved in the seafood city. One person just spent a lot of dollars. I enjoyed a seafood feast that can only be eaten in China that requires a strong mouth. For Zhou Yuanqiang, who has never enjoyed much material life, how beautiful life is at this moment.
At noon, Zhou Yuanqiang, who was lying on the sand, heard a knock on the door.
After opening the door, a face that Zhou Yuanqiang had seen in the morning was suddenly revealed, which was the big brother. When he saw Zhou Yuanqiang, he immediately showed a smile.
Behind him was a middle-aged man in his forties, staring at Zhou Yuanqiang curiously.
After letting them in, Zhou Yuanqiang said, "How are things going?" ”
"Boss, it's all done, this is Boss Wu." The eldest brother introduced the middle-aged man he brought with a smile.
Zhou Yuanqiang's momentum has always been hidden, so in the eyes of others, at most he has some special temperament, but he will not have that sense of coercion. Therefore, this Boss Wu did not show a special expression, and said lightly: "I heard that you want to lease a giant ship?" ”
Zhou Yuanqiang took out a bundle of dollars from his pocket and handed it to the eldest brother next to him, and after the other party took it, he consciously withdrew from the room.
For the giant ship specializing in transportation, the renovation project requested by Zhou Yuanqiang was not difficult, so the two only talked in the room, and finally determined the place for the transformation, as well as the cost that Zhou Yuanqiang needed to bear for this, as well as the transportation cost of entering Chinese waters.
This is not the first time Boss Wu has done this kind of thing. There is no psychological burden of smuggling, after finalizing all the final matters, in terms of price, Zhou Yuanqiang did not argue about anything, and this matter was determined very smoothly. According to the other party's promise, it will take up to three days to complete the transformation.
Boss Wu's giant ship is actually very old, and many places are covered with rust.
"If it's a new ship, no one wants to do this, and you know, once it is revealed, the ship will definitely not be guaranteed, and a new ship of this tonnage will be at least a few million dollars, and it can't be rowed. But rest assured, there is absolutely no problem with the power delivery. ”
Zhou Yuanqiang smiled a little bitterly when he boarded this huge ship that was so old that it was not good, because this ship was indeed a little too old. But thinking of his own request, it doesn't matter, anyway, in two hours, you can enter the Chinese waters from Jinpu, and then let the mainland send warships to protect it, and drive to the mainland port. There is definitely no problem.
What Zhou Yuanqiang asked for was nothing more than the space that could carry seven bumblebees, which was not a problem for a giant ship with a wide cargo layer.
The place that needs to be renovated is to remove some ceilings from the cargo hold on one floor, and transform the entire cargo hold into an empty space like a warehouse. It is true that this transformation is not difficult, and only one layer is sufficient. But Zhou Yuanqiang knew that if it was a new ship, people would definitely not let it be renovated, because it would have to be restored to its original state in the future. I don't know how much it will cost. Only an old ship like Boss Wu will be allowed to be transformed.
The situation in Somalia could not tolerate Zhou Yuanqiang's delay, so after the negotiation was completed, the cargo hold was immediately renovated.
It is impossible for Zhou Yuanche to stay in the crowd until the transformation of Zongcheng, he needs to use the two days of crying to finalize the whole thing, and then return to Jinpu City and go to sea with this huge ship until the goods are successfully handed over to the mainland.
After paying the deposit in the early stage, Zhou Yuanqiang left Jinwu again, entered Dongxing City from the border, and arrived in Beihai by plane to the city first, and then flew from the city to the capital. It wasn't until he arrived in the capital that Zhou Yuanqiang informed Mao Jianyi. Although their National Security Bureau has great powers, it is still very difficult to capture their whereabouts.
Knowing that Zhou Yuanqiang had arrived in the capital, Mao Jianyi notified the superiors, and this was to personally take several elite personnel from the three places to drive to meet Zhou Yuanqiang.
This time, the cooperation between the two sides is not a trivial matter, so Zhou Yuanqiang's whereabouts. It still needs to be kept secret, and Zhou Yuanqiang can't be allowed to make any mistakes. In addition, the cooperation between the two sides is a little disgraceful, and it is naturally impossible to welcome it in a high style. However, it is important to focus on protecting Zhou Yuanqiang's safety.
The things that Zhou Yuanqiang proposed before were only known to a few upper echelons, and it was impossible for them to reach the ears of European and American countries. That's what happened next, and everything that followed was exceptionally smooth.
Mao Jianyi first arranged for Zhou Yuanqiang to rest in the hotel for one night, and the next day he took Zhou Yuanqiang to a secret base of the National Security Bureau. It seems that there is no small alley, but who knows that there is another world inside? Under the leadership of Mao Jianyi, Zhou Yuanqiang didn't know how many bends he had made. Finally stopped in a yard.
Wait until you get into a large wing house in the courtyard. Ren Mingfan and more than a dozen people like old scholars have been waiting here for a long time.
"Minister Zhou is younger than the pictures on the news, I don't know how much younger, it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, and one wave is better than the other. When Minister Zhou was my age, I had just returned from studying abroad. "Ren Mingfan doesn't have any shelves. When he saw Zhou Yuanqiang, he was completely like his own family, he was full of praise, pulled Zhou Yuanqiang to sit on the chair, and said: "Although Minister Zhou has emigrated, he has the blood of our descendants of Yan and Huang, except for this nationality issue, it is a real family!" ”
Zhou Yuanqiang laughed and said: "I just took a little luck, plus some courage, but unlike Minister Ren, who has a double doctorate degree and has contributed a lot of scientific research achievements to the mainland, I don't dare to be in front of Minister Ren." ”
To be honest, this kind of emotional offensive made Zhou Yuanqiang a little unbearable, he thought about it all the time, and knew that in front of these political veterans, he was a novice at all. Zhou Yuanqiang, who is self-aware, after a few words of greeting, directly turned to the topic. There are more than a dozen people on the other side, and he is the only one who negotiates, and he must be very disadvantaged.
But Zhou Yuanqiang has no choice, who makes his secret too shocking?
However, Zhou Yuanqiang does not have to ask for the mainland. The cooperation between the two sides is completely on an equal footing. If the talks can't be reached, Zhou Yuan will not be able to break the ship, and use the materials of the Chamber of Commerce in the Last Days to let Somalia pass the current hurdle. Zhou Yuanqiang believes that when his several measures are implemented, this kind of economic sanctions will lose its meaning.
Zhou Yuanqiang, who has no negotiation experience, this negotiation is indeed extremely difficult.
From morning to afternoon, when Zhou Yuanqiang walked out of this small courtyard, he couldn't help wiping the sweat stains on his forehead, because it was indeed not easy. Don't look at these old men in their seventies and eighties, they are all proficient, at the negotiation table, they are even more energetic than themselves, which really makes Zhou Yuanqiang stunned. But fortunately, Zhou Yuanqiang's bottom line was not broken by them in the end. It's just that the conditions are still somewhat loose, and several key technologies for the seven-class Hornet and Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers.
Of course, none of this can be free. For these things, which there is no way to buy even if there is money, they will buy them from Zhou Yuanqiang at three times the actual price, and they will also help Somalia tide over the current economic sanctions imposed by Europe and the United States. It seems that the mainland has suffered a loss in this business, but as long as you make a careful calculation, it is the mainland that really makes a big profit.
The value of a few key technologies of a Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is not measured by money.
Another piece of good news is naturally that Zhou Yuanqiang's frozen tens of billions of dollars have been unfrozen in half. For Zhou Yuanqiang, who is now short of money, it is indeed a good news. Coupled with the mainland's purchase of several key technologies for Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, as well as the money for seven Bumblebees, at least Zhou Yuanqiang does not have to worry about the next series of places that need to be spent. After determining the cooperation plan, Zhou Yuanqiang appeared in Beihai that day and returned to Jinpu City the next day, which was exactly three days.
After looking at the effect of the retrofit, there was no problem with installing seven Hornets. After Zhou Yuanqiang contacted the South China Sea Fleet, he directly asked Boss Wu to go to sea that night. As Boss Wu said before, the power system of this giant ship is still very good, no worse than the new ship, and it will throw Jinpu into the night in a moment.
For the old fritters, they know how to evade the coast guard, and they don't need Zhou Yuanqiang to worry about it.
