Battlefield Contractor

"I probably understand what you mean. But Colonel Jonathan, it really surprised me.

In addition, I don’t know whether the opportunity you mentioned is indeed an opportunity or a higher risk for this company. "Lin Rui tapped the tabletop lightly with his fingers.

"No, no, Mr. Rick, listen to me. This is indeed an opportunity for us, if it succeeds.

It will greatly restore the reputation that the US military has established in Africa. In addition, it also gave a strong impetus to the return of our African Command to Africa.

But it is also a real benefit for you. This means that there will be more cooperation between us. Means that you will get a larger order contract.

Our cooperative is just the beginning. You know that although the Pentagon has never given up on expanding its influence in Africa.

However, the White House clearly wants to maintain the status quo and does not want more military forces to be involved in Africa. There are differences in this regard.

And this kind of disagreement created a huge opportunity.

On the one hand, they hope to expand their influence in Africa, and on the other hand, they are no longer willing to invest too much manpower in Africa. This makes military companies like yours truly profitable. "Jonathan said very seriously.

"I didn't see that much." Lin Rui smiled.

"Mr. Rick, we don't have to go around in circles. From Iraq to Afghanistan, countless successful examples have proven the role of private military companies in the war.

How many organizations like your company become contractors for the U.S. military every year?

And what kind of results these military contractors have achieved, I think you, as Mr. Rick, are the most clear.

Mr. Rick, you know better than anyone that this is an opportunity. "Jonathan looked at Lin Rui.

Lin Rui nodded, "I know this is an opportunity. But I really don't have any preparations. We have been restoring, expanding staff, and replenishing equipment during the recent period.

Maybe we are not ready to accept such a large task. I originally thought that you just wanted to get rid of the leader of a Somali youth army, or launch some retaliatory actions against the Somali youth army.

But I really didn't expect that you were preparing for a big one. "

"That's why this is an opportunity. Rick, I know what you did in Western Sahara. You assisted the local armed forces in Western Sahara and destroyed the Jihadist Alliance.

You taught them severely. Those terrorists have lingering fears of you. I know that you have the ability to fight on a certain scale.

And you are in Somalia, and you are not the only ones fighting. The Somali National Army will fully cooperate with you.

We will declare to the public that you are a special operation group sent by the US military to Somalia. Assist the Somali National Army to eliminate terrorist organizations in Somalia. "Jonathan looked at Lin Rui.

"Let me think about it." Lin Rui nodded.

"Of course. But I still advise you not to give up this opportunity. Rick, I am your friend.

And this is a business, since it is a business, you have to make decisions from a business perspective. "Jonathan looked at Lin Rui and smiled.

"You are becoming more and more able to talk. It seems that in the headquarters of the African Command, there is no gangster." Lin Rui also smiled, took a cigar from the humidor and handed it to Jonathan. "It's better if you take a cigarette and rest for a while, I'll discuss it with Mr. John."

Taking advantage of this time, Lin Rui and the actuary Jiang An came to the outside of the office.

"Actuarial, what do you think of this matter?" Lin Rui frowned.

"To be honest, I was quite surprised. I thought it was similar to what you thought before, thinking they were just going to take revenge.

Unexpectedly, their appetite is really big enough, they want to completely wipe out the Somali youth army. "The actuary sneered Kishi.

"I feel that this is indeed an opportunity." Lin Rui nodded. "The US Army Africa Command wants to return to Africa. The military has been planning for more than ten years.

This time the Nigerian side took the initiative to bring it forward, and those military leaders began to move around again.

Now is the time when they desperately need to show their muscles, but the White House is pressing hard.

This means that they will need military companies like ours to play the leading role for a long time to come.

This is indeed a great opportunity for the company's development. On the other hand, we can take advantage of this relationship to open up the passage of Somalia's upper echelons. "

Jiang An nodded, "I also thought about it before. Somalia is one of the least developed countries in the world. Due to the continuous civil war, the society and education system have collapsed for many years.

However, geographical location is important, and it is the only sea route for freighters from various countries to enter and exit the Suez Canal.

If we can enhance our presence in Somalia, and even open up channels for senior leaders in Somalia, for the company, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

However, although we defeated the Jihadist Alliance in Operation Western Sahara, we were actually greatly affected.

Although the newly replenished personnel are already in place, most of them have just received basic training. He has not experienced actual combat baptism.

I am still a little worried about carrying out such a large-scale operation in such a short period of time. "

Lin Rui groaned, "My worry is also the same. But now the opportunity is rare, besides, soldiers who have not experienced war will never truly mature.

And fighting is always the most effective means for soldiers to grow up quickly. Although this operation has great risks, it also has high returns. "

"Then you mean to promise them?" the actuarial magistrate asked in a low voice.

"We can agree to them, but we have to increase the price. Although they gave us a good offer, then I believe there is room for this." Lin Rui nodded.

"Understood. Since we want to take risks, we must make our adventures worthwhile." The actuary smiled.

"That's what I meant." Lin Rui patted him on the shoulder, then. The two returned to the office.

Jonathan looked at them with his cigar in his mouth, "It seems that the two have discussed the results. Can you tell me your decision?"

"We intend to accept, but we still have a dispute over the price." The actuary shrugged.

"Don't do that, man, I've already won a good price for you." Jonathan shook his head, "You can't have too much appetite."

"Colonel, you know our appetite." Lin Rui smiled, "You should know this before you come to us.

Your offer looks good, but it is not enough to eradicate the entire Somali youth army.

Even if you find other private military companies, I am afraid it will not be the price.

This will be a large-scale military operation and costly. You are here to ask us for help. We can't help, and we will post the money ourselves.

So give me a real price, and we sign a contract decently. "

Jonathan put down the cigar in his hand and squinted at Lin Rui, "Up to 20%."

"What we want is an increase of 30%, if that doesn't work. I'm afraid we can't help it." Lin Rui shook his head.
