Hearing this, Xia Ye raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? In Minister Qiu's opinion, can this industry do it? How? ”

Qiu Zhikuan glanced at Xia Ye, and a gleam flashed in his eyes: "You can do it, but you have to have enough strength and background, Mr. Xia, although your night capital is strong, in this industry, you also have to abide by some unspoken rules." ”

After listening to it on a summer night, I knew it in my heart.

He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Minister Qiu, don't worry, I have never been a person who likes to break the rules in Xia Ye, since I have decided to get involved in this industry, I will definitely abide by the rules of this industry." ”

After hearing this, Qiu Zhikuan showed a satisfied smile on his face: "Mr. Xia is really a smart person, I believe you will definitely be able to break into this industry." ”

The two chatted for a while about the specific situation of the arms industry, and Qiu Zhikuan, as the supreme officer, naturally had a very in-depth understanding of this industry.

He gave Xia Ye a detailed introduction to the operation of the arms comprador and manufacturing industry, the distribution of profits, and the risk points that need to be paid attention to.

Summer Night listened to it with relish, and my heart also had a deeper understanding of this industry.

"Mr. Xia, do you know how deep the water is in the arms comprador business?" Qiu Zhikuan opened his mouth, with a bit of vicissitudes and mystery in his tone.

Xia Ye shook his head slightly, and a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes: "I want to hear about it." ”

Qiu Zhikuan took a sip of tea and said slowly: "This industry, to put it bluntly, is a dangerous game on the edge of the law, taking over the supply from international arms dealers, and then transferring it to the demand side through various channels, every link in this is full of variables. ”

He paused and continued: "Profit distribution? It is not a simple few points, it depends on the scarcity of the supply, the difficulty of transportation, and the most important thing - the strength and bid of the buyer, sometimes, a business down, the profit can be several times higher, but more often, it may not even be able to recover the capital, and even have to take his life. ”

Xia Ye listened attentively and couldn't help asking, "What about the risk point?" What else should I be aware of besides being caught? ”

Qiu Zhikuan smiled bitterly: "Risk? First, you have to have reliable sources of intelligence to determine which arms are hot sellers and which are likely to be hot potatoes, and secondly, you have to be on guard against being cut off or having an accident during the transportation process. Besides, buyers are not so easy to deal with, sometimes they turn their faces faster than books, and you have to have enough means and background to protect yourself. ”

He took a deep breath, and his eyes became deep: "Also, in this industry, there are many mixed forces, you have to learn to distinguish who is a friend and who is an opponent, and sometimes, behind a seemingly simple transaction, there may be layers of conspiracies and traps." ”

After hearing this, Xia Ye was silent for a long time before he sighed: "It seems that this arms comprador is really not a job that ordinary people can do." ”

Qiu Zhikuan nodded, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes: "Yes, although this industry is full of temptations and challenges, not everyone can have fun. ”

Xia Ye's heart was stirred by Qiu Zhikuan's previous words, and he couldn't help but inquire further: "Minister Qiu, what kind of road is the imperial arms business?" With the support of the imperial background, does it mean that the green light is unimpeded all the way? ”

Hearing this, Qiu Zhikuan smiled slightly, and an unfathomable light appeared in his eyes: "Mr. Xia, you have asked the point, the imperial arms business, that is not a field that ordinary people can touch, simply put, it is the arms trade backed by the strong political and military strength of the empire. ”

He took a sip of the remaining tea in his cup and continued: "This kind of business, the way of operation is extremely secretive, but the influence is all over the world, the empire usually cooperates with some stable regimes or forces, through diplomatic channels, military assistance, etc., to sell arms to each other, this kind of transaction, often accompanied by the exchange of political interests, can even affect the fate of some small countries. ”

When it comes to profit distribution, Qiu Zhikuan's eyes flashed:

"In this, profits are not calculated in a conventional way, and sometimes, a transaction can bring not only monetary gains, but also the acquisition of strategic resources, geopolitical layout, and even the dominance in future wars, so this level of arms business is often carried out by the top level of the empire in person, negotiating and negotiating."

Xia Ye listened excitedly, but at the same time maintained a little caution: "So, is it really risk-free to do this kind of business?" ”

Qiu Zhikuan shook his head and said: "Of course not, although it has a strong background of the empire, the arms business is the arms business after all, and the variables and unknown factors still exist, but compared with other ordinary arms transactions, the empire's arms business has a more complete and efficient mechanism in terms of risk control and response, after all, the empire will not allow its interests to be harmed in any way." ”

He paused, and then added: "Of course, if you want to get involved in this field, you not only need to have enough strength and background, but also need to have a keen political sense and military strategic vision, otherwise, even if you are lucky enough to enter this circle, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in it." ”

Xia Ye took a deep breath and said with emotion: "It seems that this imperial arms business is really not something that ordinary people can touch. ”

Qiu Zhikuan smiled faintly: "Yes, this is like standing at the top of the food chain, overlooking the whole world, that feeling is indeed intoxicating, but it also requires enough strength and wisdom to support." ”

As the words ended, the two fell into a brief silence.

Inside the house.

The atmosphere gradually became solemn, and Qiu Zhikuan's voice was low and powerful:

"I have already been in contact with your situation when your Xingchen Securities was attacked by the Dark Flower before, although I did not communicate directly with you at that time, but I was quite impressed by your company, and Zou Tian of the Dragon Group also reported your deeds to me in detail."

When Xia Ye heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect that his company was already in Qiu Zhikuan's sight, and he didn't expect that Zou Tian of the Dragon Group would report his situation to a heavyweight like Qiu Zhikuan.

He nodded slightly, showing his respect for Qiu Zhikuan: "Minister Qiu, thank you for your attention, since you know something about my business, then I will say it bluntly, Night Capital intends to develop the arms manufacturing industry in Southeast Asia, but this needs to be approved by the Imperial Ministry of Defense, I hope you can give us support in this regard." ”

Qiu Zhikuan's brows furrowed slightly, he didn't immediately answer Xia Ye's question.

The arms business is not child's play, and the slightest carelessness can lead to huge political and military risks.

He must carefully consider the possible implications of this decision.

He glanced deeply at Summer Night, trying to read more from the young man's eyes.

Xia Ye looked at Qiu Zhikuan without fear, his eyes were firm and honest.

He understood Qiu Zhikuan's worries, and he also knew that he had to show enough sincerity and strength to impress this high-ranking figure of the empire.
