Chapter 555: The Big Deal
"Sarah, are you interested in going to South Korea?" Muyang returned to the hotel where they were staying and said to Sarah.
"Are you going to Korea, is there anything interesting in Korea, what is most famous there." Sarah asked.
"Oh, plastic surgery."
Sarah is so beautiful and has a very good figure, she doesn't need plastic surgery at all, but Muyang didn't come up with it after thinking about it for a long time, except for plastic surgery, what is most famous in Korea, Jeju Island is good, but compared to the Maldives and the Mediterranean, that's it.
Muyang took Sarah and Qom to Seoul, South Korea, after all, they were not specifically for tourism, Muyang's target was the THAAD missile defense system, and South Korea deployed them at Osan Air Base south of Seoul, which is also the location of the South Korean Air Force Combat Command, less than 100 kilometers from Seoul.
The reason why South Korea has deployed its missile system here is that the THAAD system can cover two-thirds of South Korea's firepower range, has a good defense depth to the north and northwest, and has the conditions for secondary interception, which is the most advantageous from a military point of view.
The THAAD missile defense system, which stands for the "terminal high-altitude area defense system," can intercept incoming short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles inside and outside the atmosphere, and is an important component of the US ballistic missile defense system.
The system has a maximum altitude of 150 km, a maximum range of 300 km, and an effective combat radius of about 200 km against typical ballistic targets. That is, it has a mid-course interception capability for medium- and short-range ballistic missiles with a range of less than 3,500 km, and a terminal interception capability for medium- and long-range ballistic missiles with a range of more than 3,500 km.
And it can be compared. That is, the Russian S-400 system can be compared with it. China is also developing its own defense system, but it is still far from the United States and Russia.
There is also a reason why Lake was the first to find China, because the Americans will never sell THAAD missile systems to China. Moreover, the Chinese have money, and now the investment in weapons is also very large, China is definitely interested in getting a set of THAAD system for research, the Chinese's copycat ability is terrifying, the world's first.
Many reasons add up, so Lake chose China first.
Ethan. Lake takes Kyle into China, in a hotel in Qingdao. Lake met with the person he was looking for on the trip.
"Mr. Li Wei, it's been a long time." Ethan Lake greeted him warmly.
Li Wei looks mediocre, only more than 1.7 meters tall. It is not Kui Wei, a very ordinary Chinese who looks very ordinary, if it is not for the special attention of people who care, Li Wei's occasionally sharp eyes. You would definitely think that he was just an ordinary civil servant.
But who knows. Li Wei is China's largest private arms dealer, and this identity includes both overt and private aspects, which shows his great power.
"Mr. Lake, it's been a long time since you've seen you, oh, this is." After Li Wei and Lake warmly shook hands, he looked at Kyle, and a stranger appeared. Although this is in China, you should also ask.
"My partner. Kyle. Lake introduced.
Li Wei shook hands with Kyle, it was regarded as a greeting, Li Wei did not come alone, he was followed by a man about thirty years old, but he never spoke, and Li Wei did not introduce him. The four of them sat down, and the man sat on Li Wei's side.
"This time, I have a big business I want to talk to you about." Lake Road.
"I like big business, I don't know if you want to buy weapons or sell technical information." After all, there has been contact before and two transactions have been reached, and Li Wei knows Lake better.
"No, I'm going to sell weapons this time, but I don't know if you need them." Lake Road.
"Oh, sell weapons, Mr. Lake, please." Li Wei became interested.
This Lake should understand China's situation, for basic weapons, China has never been short, in the international market, China is also the fourth largest arms exporter, although most of them sell some non-cutting-edge weapons, but the reputation of ordinary weapons and equipment is still good.
So Li Wei is sure that this Lake will never come to him to sell AK47, F4 grenades and other things, even if he has a Scud, he can't do anything in the face of China, unless he comes with a Harpoon missile. Since he dared to come to China to sell weapons and dare to contact himself, he must have relied on him.
"The THAAD system, the U.S. THAAD missile defense system, is a complete set of command system platforms, fire control radar platforms, launch platforms, and equipped missiles."
After Lake said this, he was a little weak-hearted, and he didn't know whether Muyang could get the THAAD system, but if Muyang really got the THAAD system, then he could make a fortune, so Lake had to go on the band.
Listening to Lake's words, Li Wei frowned, he knew Lake, so he knew that Lake could not have so much energy to get the American THAAD system, could it be that the other party came to deceive himself, this possibility is not great, Lake should know that the price of deceiving himself is death, Lake should not be so stupid, besides, if he doesn't see things and doesn't pay, the chance of him being able to deceive himself is not great.
Li Wei's eyes looked directly into Lake's eyes, and the smile that was still on his face just now was completely gone, and at this moment there was a trace of majesty and awe, "Ethan. Mr. Lake, you must know that we arms dealers are not allowed to joke with each other. ”
"Of course, I promise, oh well, I'm supposed to be an intermediary to liaise on this, but I'm not here to deceive you, you know, that doesn't do me any good." Lake said.
Li Wei has China behind him, and in the ranks of arms merchants, he definitely belongs to the predator level, if it weren't for the fact that Lake had sold weapons materials to Li Wei twice, thus pulling the relationship, Lake would not have been able to catch Li Wei's line.
Now that Li Wei is suddenly powerful, Lake is a little unbearable, and tells the real situation, if Muyang really can't get the THAAD system at that time, his trouble will be much smaller.
Li Wei looked at Kyle and asked, "Then is Mr. Kyle in charge of the business this time?" ”
"No, I'm just a subordinate, and my boss has the final say in this matter." Kedau.
"Do I know me, can you introduce me to Mr. Kyle?" Li Weidao.
"Not yet, but when trading, I think you'll meet my boss." Kedau.
"Okay, it seems that there is another energetic person in the arms circle, Mr. Kyle, please help me bring a message to your boss, just say that I, Li Wei, am very willing to befriend him." Li Wei said.
Li Wei's smile gradually returned to his face, because he got the information he wanted, "Then let's talk about the specific transaction situation." (To be continued.) )
