Chapter 482: Wang Zhen's Africa Strategy
This framework is a system designed by Wang Zhen after learning from the experience of Iraq's failures, looking through a lot of materials, and referring to many historical templates.
Economically dominant.
Cooperate politically.
Militarily independent.
It is in a state of separation from the local ruling group.
It not only ensures that the local ruling group will not stand on the opposite side of Wangzhen, but also ensures its independence and will not be too disturbed by the local political situation.
Eventually, Wang Zhen hoped to establish this base in the South Soviet Union and slowly radiate to several neighboring countries, using the economy and military as anchors to weave a huge network of relations centered on himself, so as to influence the various countries in the network.
Diagonally opposite, President Kiel held his hands, and his head went over the things Wang Zhen said again, considering the pros and cons.
He must invest in the company, one is for asset appreciation, the second is for influence, and the third is for the family, purely from the perspective of the company, the better he develops as a shareholder, the greater the benefits he gets.
Together, it's good for both sides!
Politically, it is understandable for Wang Zhen to ask for the chairmanship of the committee, because no one in the South Sudan understands how the 'special economic zone' should be run, and Wang Zhen has experience in building and developing a small town into a city.
The SAR needs Wang Zhen's guidance!
As for that Natalia, he doesn't have more specific information in his hands, so he won't comment on it first, but Wang Zhen can't do everything himself, and he needs a familiar person to help him deal with specific affairs.
The main thing is that the specific affairs are all done by the Nansu people themselves, and he has enough manpower to insert them, so he doesn't have to worry about what Wang Zhen really does.
As for the final military question......
He was a little apprehensive in his heart, but as long as there was a legal business entrustment contract, he could wield a legal weapon as the president of a country, and it was impossible for this guy in front of him to occupy territory and divide the territory.
Unless he wants to become a warlord that everyone shouts about!
Farther away, Kiel doesn't want to think about it, he's 67 years old, and the devil knows how long he can live, he just needs to make sure that Wang Zhen doesn't split while he's still alive.
Therefore, from the perspective of this overall plan, Wang Zhen is very sincere.
Not to mention that it was fair, but at least it didn't pit Nansu much.
Of course, the mine is from the south, the land is from the south, and the workers are from the south, and the pay is definitely not proportional to the gain, but there is no way, who will let you fall behind.
Besides, those things are put underground, and they are worthless if they are not able to be developed, and there are more countries in Africa that have mines.
At last......
Nansu is Nansu, Dinka is Dinka people, and Takir is Kiel......
"Okay, I'm going to agree to your request." Thinking about it clearly, Kiel looked up at Wang Zhen, "I will sign it with my own hands, and I can't guarantee that several other parties will also recognize it, but in any case, if I admit it as president, it will be valid." ”
"Haha, if someone wants to make trouble for me, then just come, although I Wang Zhen doesn't cause trouble, I'm never afraid of things!" Wang Zhen grinned.
"On the side of Nansu Mining Development Company, how many shares can I get." Kiel asked directly.
"20%, I suggest that President Kiel can set up a private equity fund company that does not disclose shareholder information to the public, and people from your side can inject capital into this company, and then control the Nansu Mining Development Company through the company." Wang Zhen said with a smile: "This is safer, and it also saves some unnecessary rumors." ”
There is also a Wang Zhen who did not say that through the company's holding, then these shareholders are grateful to Kiel, and the relationship network is also tied to Kiel, which is separated from Wang Zhen's side.
Kiir's smile became even stronger when he heard this, Wang Zhen was showing goodwill, and he was also saying that he would not get too close to these people around him.
Before making certain achievements, Wang Zhen is not ready to contact too many people, and Leader Li is right, slow down, and cross the river by feeling the stones.
"Of course, since it is a company, then everything is in accordance with international practice, the mining industry is a gold-swallowing monster, and 10 million US dollars is just a start-up capital, and the follow-up will definitely continue to increase the capital, which President Kiel must be prepared for."
"I understand that if I don't continue to increase my holdings, then it would be fine to dilute proportionally." Kiel said very openly: "In addition, the Glorious Defense Company should be registered in the South Sudan, and the security and defense issues will be entrusted to this company." ”
"No problem, as a defense company registered in the South Sudan, my company will pay taxes in accordance with the law." Kiel made a request, and Wang Zhen naturally did not be polite, "If the autonomous region wants to attract foreign investment, there should be relevant policy support, taking the Chinese side as an example, tax exemption for companies in the autonomous region is a good way to express sincerity." ”
"No problem, as long as the company exists, it will recruit employees, which will greatly promote economic development and have a positive effect on the entire South Sudan." Kiel nodded in agreement, "Location, you must have already chosen, right?" ”
"Nagishot."
"Where's the mine?"
"The exploration here is too sloppy, and I am ready to buy this piece of the territory of the southern Soviet Union in the Kineti Mountains." Wang Zhen Lion opened his mouth widely.
The corners of Kiel's mouth twitched, why don't you buy the entire Eastern Equatoria!
That's equivalent to 4% of the land area of the South Soviet Union!
"It's certainly impossible." Kiel shook his head and said: "At present, two iron mines have been discovered, one copper mine, especially the copper mine, which is of relatively high taste, and three minerals can be given to you." ”
"It's just a preliminary investigation, and there is no detailed data on the specific area, reserves, and mining difficulty, so how can this be estimated." Wang Zhen spread his hands, "Besides, whether it is iron ore or copper ore, it is the metal deposit with the worst economic benefits, and the benefits cannot be said to be none, but it is almost none!" ”
"I can give it to you for free." Kiel said with a smile.
"No need, the opposition can say a word about illegal transactions and embezzlement of state assets at any time, and I don't want to get into any legal trouble for my follow-up development." Wang Zhen shook his head and said, "Then let's do it, a little less, half a Kinetti Mountain." ”
"That's simply not possible, with three proven mining areas as the center, 10 kilometers of land nearby."
"That's just over 300 square kilometers, and my ranch in Iraq is bigger than that." Wang Zhen's head shook like a rattle, "The radius is 50 kilometers." ”
"Impossible......"
After some bargaining, a radius of 20 kilometers was finally determined with the mining area as the center, and the total area of the three plots of land plus the mining area was about 4,000 square meters.
Equivalent to 6.5% of Tongliao ...... The price is $6 million.
The price of land in this mountainous area cannot be compared with Iraq, there will definitely be no oil here, and the opposition of this price can't say anything, at least they can't find anyone willing to spend such a large price on this land!
And this money is for the South Soviet government, not Kiel personally or the tribe.
As for the few tribes living on this land, in Kiel's opinion, this is for their good, once the development begins, a large amount of labor is required, and these people will have the opportunity to leave the land and have the opportunity to enter modern society.
According to the agreement between the two, this part of the land belongs to Guanghui Investment Company, not Nansu Mining, and Guanghui Defense will use this land to invest in Nansu Mining, that is, this part of the land has nothing to do with Kiel.
Kiel didn't raise much objection to this, after all, he was not short of land......
But in exchange, Kiel offered a condition, "help me bring in 5 million rounds of various bullets." ”
It was the United Nations that listed South Sudan as an arms embargo country and a project embargo country, and through formal channels, Kiel could not buy even a single bullet, let alone guns.
Even if Wang Zhen gets the qualification for NATO's weapons purchase, he can't handle this, the consumption is too exaggerated, and it will definitely attract investigation.
Therefore, this matter can only be done through smuggling.
Of course, Wang Zhen agreed that in addition to being part of the land purchase agreement, he was also prepared to make a profit on it.
As a good person, he has also learned about the arms market here in the past few days in Nansu.
The HK416 bare gun costs $1,735, if you add the front grip, 3.5x ACOG optical sight, laser sight indicator, tactical light, silencer...... $7,000 for full allocation.
But it can be sold for $50,000 on the black market in Juba!
Don't be too expensive, don't bargain!
Because this is an arms embargo, and it's not fucking close to the sea, it's very difficult, very difficult for any weapon to get in, and who will do this kind of business without several times the profit!
A 56-style without the manufacturer's logo costs as much as $5,000.
The price of bullets is even more frightening, with a standard M43 intermediate bullet costing $2.4.
This time, Kiel asked for ammunition of several calibers, with an average price of $2.5 per piece, and a total value of up to $1,250.
That's it, Wang Zhen still gritted his teeth and agreed, he really didn't want to make this money.
There are more than 10,000 UN peacekeepers in this hellish place in Nansu, and wherever there is a firefight, there are peacekeepers, and they will trace the source of weapons and ammunition from the number of bullet casings on the ground.
Once he is caught, Wang Zhen will be in big trouble, after all, he is a serious businessman!
At least before the establishment of a stable transportation channel, he is really not suitable to get involved in this kind of thing, after all, his status is different.
In the end, Wang Zhen decided to introduce the business to Victor Perlagia, an underground arms dealer, and he acted as a middleman and made two million in tears!
After the land issue was negotiated, other things were simple, and after chatting for a while, Wang Zhen took his leave and left after eating tons of Nansu specialties at Kiel's house.
……
"4,000 square kilometers?" The donkeys exclaimed, "This is fucking enough to build a country, right?" ”
"Roll the calves!" Wang Zhen scolded angrily, "The smallest country in Africa has 11,000 square kilometers of land, and this is especially a mountainous area!" ”
"Alright, go, let's play!"
Driving away the troublesome donkey, Wang Zhen told Kiel what he had talked about.
"In other words, there are a few things we need to do now." Natalia opened the book and quickly recorded: "Go to the United States to register Radiant Defense, go to Greece to register Radiant Radiance Investment Company, and register South Sudan Glorious Defense and South Sudan Mining Investment Company in Juba." ”
"It is also necessary to find people to carry out exploration, determine the taste, production, mining difficulty, but also to purchase equipment and build a base ......"
"Wait." Wang Zhen hurriedly shouted, "Exploration and construction of factories or something, it is a long-term work, and the first thing should be to build a base to make a reputation." ”
"Make a name for yourself?" Natalia looked at Wang Zhen with a puzzled expression, "Aren't you doing mining here?" ”
"Of course, of course, but this is not in conflict with fighting, we are first and foremost PMC companies, you don't really think Najishot is safe, right?"
Natalia stood up and frowned and asked, "What's the problem here?" ”
"This is an important drug smuggling channel, do you know what the black triangle is, well, it can also be called a black pentagram." Wang Zhen grinned. (End of chapter)
