Chapter 207: Historical Opportunity

Moments later, the meeting officially ended, and Farouk left with a complicated expression.

Wang Ye's suggestion was completely beyond his expectations, but he had to admit that, at least in his wisdom, the suggestion given by Wang Ye was constructive, very valuable, and had enough to promote the development of Pakistan, but the problem was that the project was too idealistic.

The idealization is divided into two aspects, on the one hand, the plan is too much on the development of the old iron, and on the other hand, there are factions and strife within Pakistan.

Just like the previous procurement plan has not been able to be implemented for a long time, Pakistan is not a monolithic of opinions, except for neutral factions, some people are pro-Lao and some are pro-Lao and the United States, the interests of the two sides are separated, and they may be able to be unified for a short time in wartime, but in the long run, they are incompatible with each other.

Although they are all for the good of Pakistan, their directions and choices are completely different.

And Wang Ye's plan, if it is implemented, will almost tie Pakistan to Lao Tie's chariot, and deviate from the closeness to the United States, then the separation will begin, after all, the relationship between Lao Tie and Lao Mei is not a friendly and cooperative alliance, but was once very tense, even almost out of a state of war.

So can Pakistan be in such a clear position?

Obviously, for the pro-Americans, it is absolutely impossible, and for the neutrals, it is worth thinking about and measuring, so the final result is probably still a ten, twenty, or even thirty years, and in the end it may not be over, and there will be no more follow-up, and Pakistan is still backward and poor day after day.

"Perhaps, swaying from side to side is not a good thing either."

In the end, Farouk couldn't help but sigh in his heart for some reason, in fact, he is a serious neutral, he neither supports pro-Laos and the United States, nor does he support completely pro-Laotian, he only supports the direction that is good for Pakistan, in a sense, it is left and right.

But now he has found that he may be able to make small profits for a while, but he can't get long-term benefits.

"This young man, it's terrifying!"

With this idea, he returned to the guest house where he lived, surrounded by a group of staff, and today the negotiations were all completed, and he could leave for China tomorrow.

In addition, Farouk, who stayed up late last night and relaxed the whole person, fell asleep in bed for almost a few seconds, and then he had a dream, dreaming of the railway that stretched for thousands of miles, from the inland to the seaside port, Pakistan, which was once closed and backward in transportation, suddenly gained a transportation artery.

Along this railway, countless factories have appeared, and the citizens have become factory workers, and they are moving towards peace and contentment, and the port is busy with shipping, and it is no longer deserted, especially the city called Peshawar, which has been transformed into a behemoth industrial city, the crown jewel of South and West Asia.

Not to mention, with the development of industry, Pakistan finally has its own military industry, and even through the cooperation with Lao Tie, Pakistan's first fighter has finally taken off!

And in the conference room.

After Farouk left, the conference room was silent for a few seconds, and the old man Zhou Jinlie suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said with a smile:

"I said you kid, you're always so amazing!"

"We don't know if he heard the idea you gave Farouk, but we heard it in our ears and couldn't help but start to get excited!"

"If this railway, which spans most of Asia, can really be built, it will be too important for us in terms of both economic value and strategic value!"

Regarding the old man Zhou Jinlie's statement, the other leaders present nodded one after another, and the old man Zhou Jinlie stood up directly, walked to the world map posted in the conference room, and said:

"From the economic aspect, although our import and export trade is not much at present, it will definitely continue to increase in the future!"

"And this access to the sea allows us to trade with the West faster."

As soon as the words fell, the old man Wei Qingshan, who was sitting there, shook his head, and directly interrupted the old man Zhou Jinlie's words, only to see him look at the map with blazing eyes and say:

"It's not just a matter of trade cycles, it's trade security!"

"Now we actually only have one outlet to the sea, which is not safe, if the enemy comes from the sea, it can cut off our shipping in an instant, so we need a backup outlet to the sea to ensure the safety of our sea transportation!"

"Not to mention, this railway can connect the two countries into a cohesive whole, which will help us to restrain the situation in the entire South Asian region, which is also something that must be considered."

With the conversation between the two, then a voice of echo sounded at the scene, and Wang Ye, who was sitting there, sighed in his heart.

In fact, the most critical issue of this plan is by no means limited to this.

What's more, if this railway can be built, then the port that will eventually arrive can find a way to lease and coordinate it to moor warships!

Battleships need port supplies, and if there is no port supply, even an aircraft carrier battle group cannot fight outside for a long time, and if you want to extend your tentacles to the Indian Ocean, to the Red Sea, to the Persian Gulf, and to the West, then a port close to this area is essential, otherwise the fleet is rootless water, and it is difficult to sustain it!

However, it is obvious that the current leaders have not considered this problem, this is because of the limitations of the times, after all, today's naval forces are too cold! It can't even do coastal defense, it can't talk about a blue-water navy at all, and it is completely unimaginable to go to the world.

But Wang Ye understands that some things need to be laid out early, otherwise they will be in a hurry when they are used, and it will be too late!

It's like driving, you can't wait for the car to buy before you get a driver's license, right?

"By the way, about what Farouk just said about the Foundation payment."

"What do you think, Wang Ye?"

Then, after ending the discussion about this plan, the old man Wei Qingshan looked at Wang Ye and said, Wang Ye smiled and said:

"To be honest, I was really surprised for a moment when I saw the purchase list that Farouk handed me."

"After all, they buy a lot!"

"At first, I just suspected that they were in order to control the delivery cycle, even if they ordered the goods to be delivered slowly, plus these weapons and vehicles are also hard currency, in case they really don't run out, they can be resold in the international market, or those vehicles can be directly disposed of for civilian use, which is also a good plan."

"But combined with Farouk's words, I guess this batch of supplies was not just bought for themselves."

"It's still for the United States!"

As soon as these words came out, the leaders present showed surprised expressions, although these things are good, but in everyone's opinion, the United States must not look down on it!

And the old man Wei Qingshan seemed to have thought of something, and just as he frowned and thought, Wang Ye explained with a smile:

"To the west of Pakistan is Afghanistan, and when I went to the desert, I heard a lot about them."

"Since the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 79, the United States has been trying to find a way to support some military forces there, trying to resist the attack and expansion from the Soviet Union, according to Satler, the United States has invested a lot in recent years, it is because the investment is too large, they themselves feel the pressure, so they hope that Saudi Arabia will increase oil production, hit the economic scale of the Soviet Union, and then curb their investment and expansion in Afghanistan."

"In this way, the whole context is actually very clear."

"The Americans can't afford the high cost of support, but Afghanistan belongs to the kind that can't be supported without support, coupled with the conflict on the side of Pakistan, so they simply didn't do anything, found a nearby supply point, and continuously provided military weapons, equipment and materials to these two countries, and then supported them against their respective enemies, and the last mastermind behind the scenes, that is, the former big brother Soviet Union!"

"So, obviously, the Red Star Consortium became a target for the Americans."

"So I guess that a lot of this cargo will eventually go directly to Afghanistan and eventually become the weapons and equipment of the guerrillas there against the Soviet Union."

Hearing Wang Ye's explanation, many leaders suddenly realized, and the old man Wei Qingshan smiled unexpectedly and said:

"We think about the same, Lao Mei is smart this time!"

Facing the emotion of the old man Wei Qingshan, an accompanying leader next to him hesitated and said:

"So that? Can it really work? ”

"If our weapons had appeared in Afghanistan, and there was also the United States, would the Soviet Union feel it?"

Regarding the leader's concern, the old man Wei Qingshan sneered, and then said indifferently:

"What? What else did they want from the USSR? Do you still want to fight the torrent of millions of steel? ”

"If they could fight, they would have fought ten years ago, didn't they want to fight in the first place? Is our peace by their mercy? ”

"Fart!"

Hearing the old man Wei Qingshan say this, Wang Ye couldn't help but give a thumbs up, and at the same time echoed and said:

"You're right, we're not just going to do it, we're going to do it!"

"Because this is one of the few opportunities that history has left us."

"It is said that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, and now it is obvious that the United States also thinks the same, the Soviet Union, India, and even now we have two common enemies, then we are friends among friends, that is, good friends!"

"Now, since Lao Mei has made a 'request' to a good friend."

"Then we naturally have to do our best to meet the request of our 'good friend', but this good friend wants money or no money or technology, so Lao Mei can't just make a request and say nothing, right?"

"How can there be any reason to ask the horses to run and not give them grass?"

"So I thought, if we make some appropriate requests, our good friend Lao Mei, shouldn't mind, right? It should satisfy us, right? ”

As soon as Wang Ye's words fell, there was a burst of laughter in the conference room in an instant, because about Wang Ye's statement of "left and right", in fact, the leaders are clear, and what Wang Ye said just now is the specific implementation process of this guideline.

"That's right, Wang Ye is right, this is indeed a good opportunity."

"Since Lao Mei has come to the door, we are still stupid and don't understand anything, or we don't know how to pretend not to understand, we are honestly doing our own business, then we are all big fools, and in another twenty or fifty years, future generations will poke us in the backbone, saying that we have not seized the historical opportunity!"

"Wang Ye, you can control it yourself, and you know the invitation yourself, so I won't specifically ask you, there is only one requirement, and that is to pay attention to safety!"

"How do you need us to cooperate with you, you can speak directly when the time comes."

"On our side, we have to have a meeting when we go back, and then find a way to see how we can talk to Lao Mei"

In the end, the old man Zhou Jinlie said this, which was nodded in approval by many leaders present, and Wang Ye couldn't help but add:

"However, I think we must grasp the scale, and the beauty of the left and right sources lies in the word left and right."

"If it's completely crooked, then you won't get anything!"

Regarding Wang Ye's statement, the leaders present couldn't help laughing, and several of them laughed and joked:

"Hey, that's for sure, Wang Ye, don't worry!"

"Besides, let's use each other with them, how else can we get past it?"

"To put it mildly, even if we really want to go to their side, I don't think they have the courage to accept us!"

"Hahaha, yes, yes, that's the truth!"

"In the past few years, their attitude towards us has indeed been quite ambiguous, plus this matter, I think some of them are involved!"

"There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village!"

Finally, there was a relaxed laugh, and inside the guest house, Farouk was enjoying his sweet dream.

The next morning, the crowd was leaving.

As for Farouk, he has been away for a long time, and now that all the orders have been won, it is natural to hurry back to China, as for the other leaders, because of yesterday's meeting, they must also hurry back to report to the authorities, and then hold a meeting, and work together to come up with ideas to see what places can be used.

After sending them off, Wang Ye returned to the conference room with a group of factory leaders.

Sitting in the first place, Wang Ye glanced at the people present, and saw that both the leaders and the committee members had an uncontrollable smile on their faces, after all, this time it was another nine billion US dollars!

"I'm glad I am! I don't think we're having a good year! ”

"I thought that the industry conference was over, and the messy production tasks were all assigned, at least everyone could spend the weekend normally, but this order came again!"

"Can't rest! I can't stop at all! Let's get ready to work overtime! ”

Hearing Wang Ye say this, a burst of laughter rang out in the conference room in an instant, and all kinds of voices came out one after another for a while.

"Hey, what's the weekend with an order? I don't want to spend the year! ”

"Yes, yes, anyway, the food, drink, and clothing are all supplied by the factory now, what do you want to do on the weekend? When you are so old, do you still want to have children? ”

"Hahaha! Raw a ball! On the weekend, I just sat and sulked, and a few days ago in the midterm exam, I scored 37 points, and I almost died of anger! ”

"The key is that everyone is earning money now! A few days ago, I was still panicking, this overtime is so much less all of a sudden, how to distribute it? Don't let anyone add it to offend people! Now rest assured! ”

"Director, wind tunnel! We've got the money, let's do it in the wind tunnel! I beg you, even if it's a little smaller! We're going to get airplanes in the future! A wind tunnel is a must! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, and our vehicle lab, it's going to have to be expanded! It has to be expanded! ”

"In addition, we are still short of people, the director of the shipyard has been taken, this ship must be built, although there is no shortage of technicians in the factory, but there is a shortage of ship engineers!"

"Look at you, the money hasn't arrived yet, so it's ready to be spent, phew!"

In an instant, the whole conference room seemed to explode, and the leaders and committee members present were ridiculed, cried poor, asked for funds, and proposed projects, just like a vegetable market.

Just when Wang Ye was listening to their roars and drinking tea helplessly, the old factory director next to him seemed to be intoxicated by such a scene, and he was not angry at all because of the noise of everyone, and even some rather outrageous requirements and conditions put forward, and he felt like he was sitting firmly in Diaoyutai.

That's when it happened.

"Bang bang bang!"

With a few hurried knocks on the door, suddenly the discussions, laughter, quarrels, and even smug voices on the scene stopped, and Wang Ye shouted:

"Come in!"

I saw Bai Tingyu, the secretary on duty, push open the door of the conference room, and the whole person looked beaming, glanced at everyone present, and after determining the level of everyone, he lowered his voice and said to Wang Ye:

"Factory director, the batch of goods we bought from Japan has arrived at Qindao Port!"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of all the leaders and committee members on the scene went directly out of control!

Because the people who can hold a meeting here are already at the top of the consortium, they all know that Wang Ye's previous trip to Yanjing was to negotiate with Toshiba to purchase machine tools, and finally purchased thousands of machines, although these machine tools are two-axis and three-axis, but they are still so excited!

After all, the machine tools of the consortium today, although the overall number is a lot, but the quality is worrying, even a small number of two-axis and three-axis machine tools, are also second-hand goods eliminated by others, the technology is not advanced enough, not to mention, the key after years of use and wear, the accuracy is actually very poor!

Just like the boring process in the barrel of the 130 tank gun, it can be completed by the machine tool normally, but because the machine tool of the complex is not good, it can only be done by manually adding the machine tool to make up for the defects of processing!

However, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, everyone present does not know that in the list listed by Wang Ye, there are not only goods like two-axis and three-axis, but also eight-cylinder contraband like four-axis and five-axis!

At present, in the entire consortium, only Wang Ye knows about this matter.

"I need to go to Koto Island!"

"Match me a hundred lads and bring all our weapons."

"This batch of goods must be absolutely foolproof!"

In the end, Wang Ye stood up directly, looked a little anxious and walked two steps, and finally said, although the goods have arrived at the port, there is no problem in theory, but Wang Ye still doesn't want to have any moths at the door, anyway, as long as the people are enough, they will definitely not suffer in person!

"Okay, Director!"

Bai Tingyu nodded and went to make arrangements, while Wang Ye glanced around, looked at the people present with happy faces, and said with a smile:

"Everyone wait for my good news!"

"I'll go back as soon as I go! This time, our consortium is about to take a big step forward! Hahaha! ”

After finishing speaking, in the warm applause at the scene, Wang Ye waved his hand and left directly, and a moment later, more than a dozen pickup trucks and more than 20 heavy trailers set off with a bang, aiming at Qindao Port.

Sitting in the car, Wang Ye couldn't help but be a little excited.

After signing the contract with Fujii, Wang Ye asked him how Toshiba was going to bypass layers of supervision and transport those four- and five-axis machine tools, and was it going to do another Soviet operation?

In this regard, Fujii smiled and said that they don't have to worry about this matter themselves, they will figure it out themselves.

"So, how exactly did they get here?"

In the shaking car, Wang Ye couldn't help but ponder this question.

Meanwhile.

Africa, Tanzania, the office building of the Ministry of National Defense, Kikwete's office, he is also very happy!

Because the first batch of goods sent from Huaxia has already arrived in Hong Kong!
