Expedition to Europe

The relationship between Lanfang and France is a symbiotic relationship. Lanfang does not need to think about how much advantage he wants to take advantage of France. Similarly, Lanfang cannot suffer too much loss when facing France.

As early as when Lanfang was first established, Lanfang and France jointly developed the "Legion-class" battleship. The result was that everyone was happy. Lanfang obtained a "Legion-class" battleship from France at the lowest price, as well as the supporting technology. Thus achieving the first "win-win" between Lanfang and France.

This "win-win" was just a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Starting from the "Legion-class" battleship, Lan Fang started a business of losing money and making a profit.

In fact, compared to Lanfang, France really does not have many technologies that Lanfang is looking forward to. On the contrary, Lanfang's new technologies are emerging one after another, and they are far more vital than France.

Starting from the torpedo machine, Lanfang's new technology became the core of France's pursuit.

That’s right, the French no longer focus on the hard work of their own scientific researchers, but on Lanfang’s scientific and technological progress. As long as Lanfang makes a breakthrough in some aspect, that’s fine. It is equivalent to France making a breakthrough in some aspect. From penicillin to torpedo aircraft, this has always been the case, and the French are used to it.

So when the French learned that Lanfang had successfully developed a "radar", one can imagine how the French's thoughts were surging.

The best candidate to deal with Qin Zhiyuan is undoubtedly Bastian. This guy who has a long-term "revolutionary friendship" with Qin Zhiyuan has a thick enough skin and enough patience to withstand blows, so Bastian He became the best person to persuade Qin Zhiyuan.

"Qin, for the past four years, we have cooperated with each other tacitly and killed the Germans and the Japanese together. Our tree of friendship is evergreen and will continue to last, so at this time, we should not be limited to just a moment. Instead, we should raise our heads and look forward. In the distance, we have a better future." Bastian spared no effort in drawing the pie.

"Buddy, I have to tell you, if you still have this idea, then you will get nothing. Radar is very important to Lanfang. It was developed by countless scientific researchers in Lanfang who worked hard to develop it. I It is impossible to imitate the efforts of those scientific researchers just for the sake of friendship, that would be unfair to them." Qin Zhiyuan also had something to say, and for good reasons.

In fact, the focus of the conflict is here. Bastian wants to obtain the "radar" technology at the lowest price, while Qin Zhiyuan does not want to just give the "radar" to France, so this is the focus of the conflict, to put it nicely. , if you pay, you should get something; to put it bluntly, you don’t pay enough!

Not enough money!

Okay, that's pretty straightforward.

Bastian didn’t want to talk in circles. After all, he was already so familiar with it, so there was no point in talking in circles anymore, so Bastian got straight to the point: “Then let’s talk, how much do you want?”

Before Qin Zhiyuan could speak, Bastian said first: "Don't exceed (10 million). This number is too much. You know, my power is limited. If you open your mouth like a lion, then I will not be able to complete the task, and neither will you." We can’t get even a cent of franc, so we’d better be realistic.”

Bastian's words almost made Qin Zhiyuan fall down with anger. Qin Zhiyuan calmly thought and raised a finger to Bastian: "My requirements are not high, one billion Lanfang yuan, only one billion Lanfang yuan Yuan, France will never be attacked by air raids in the future. France will detect any move that is hostile to France in advance and then take precautions. Is there anything more cost-effective than this? I can be sure that it will be the case this time. The best deal in your life, bar none.”

When needed, Qin Zhiyuan can also look down on him and spare no effort in sales.

"One billion! Why don't you die..." Bastian said in a foul tone.

"You are too presumptuous. I don't want to tell you that you can leave Mr. Bastian. You are not welcome here!" Qin Zhiyuan immediately used the topic.

"Go away, can't you understand that your Majesty is joking?" Bastian hurriedly drove away the surrounding guards, and at the same time made concessions without leaving a trace: "I said, I can make concessions, but not once. With so much sex, you have to show goodwill, otherwise the next time you ask us, we will ask for a lot of money, so restrain yourself and give me a base price, a price I can accept. "

Obviously, Bastian also has a price red line in mind. Otherwise, Bastian would not be so sure.

"It doesn't make any sense for you to say this to me? What kind of price is acceptable to you? Five hundred million? Or six hundred million? No, no, no, you can't accept these prices. You can't accept it as long as you pay. , in fact, I know what you Congress lords are thinking. Those people are just waiting for me to use my skills. I will give you the skills and then send someone to help you install it and be responsible for the daily operation, and I will be responsible for the salaries of the staff. Yes, that’s what you think.” Qin Zhiyuan had no reservations about the French bourgeoisie. Although in a certain respect, Qin Zhiyuan himself is also a member of the bourgeoisie.

"We don't think so at all. It's just that you are suffering from persecution, so you are so out of tune. Okay, I'll give you a fair price, how about 500 million? I can't give you more. You may know, This is my bottom line for negotiation. If you don't agree to the price, I will resign tomorrow and go back to my hometown to go fishing with my brother. Hey... what do you think? "Give me a word quickly!" Bastian also has some snacks! A dejected attitude.

In recent times, the French political arena has been filled with strange conflicts and conflicts, which makes people confused. Just two days ago, Bastian's brother Bruno Abel Garcia was impeached by the left-wing alliance and resigned sadly. The latest political casualty.

Just a few days ago, in the latest congressional seat election, Corsica's seats dropped from six to five, and its voice is further reduced.

It's not all bad news. Pierre Foch has become the hottest new star in French politics. Pierre is now the leader of the "New Powers Alliance". This "New Powers Alliance" is a complex of many political forces. Including Paris MPs, Corsican MPs, Capi regional MPs, etc., this "new power alliance" was born only three or four months ago, but it has become a new political force and is currently launching a strong campaign for congressional seats. impact.

Qin Zhiyuan and Louis Renault knew very well what this "New Power Alliance" was about, so at the beginning of the establishment of the "New Power Alliance", Qin Zhiyuan and Louis Renault expressed their unwavering support to Pierre. It undoubtedly adds a lot of points to Pierre. It may not be possible to decide the direction of the general election now, but it can be expected in the future.

"500 million! Ha, this is the tragedy of French-style democracy. Those gentlemen don't know the value of radar at all. They don't know how much effort Lanfang's scientific researchers have put into it. They don't know what this technology will do." What advantages does it bring to the French military? Five hundred million sounds like a lot, but in fact, it simply cannot reflect the hard work of scientific researchers and the value of the technology itself. If it is measured in money, then It might be a good idea to increase it tenfold." Qin Zhiyuan said loudly.

I’m afraid there’s no definite number on how much “radar” is worth. To the Germans during World War I, this technology might be worth a billion marks, but to the British during World War II, this technology might be worth 10 billion pounds. maybe.

What is certain is that "radar" is a unique technology in the world today, and it cannot be overestimated by how much money it costs.

"Qin, we all know this issue, but at the same time, Qin, you should also understand that France is different from Lanfang. France is not a France that one person can decide with one word. France is not the France of the Napoleonic era." Bastian said It was very passionate, and there was a sense of pride in France in the sentence.

In fact, whether they are the French people or the people of Lanfang, they have enough reasons to be proud of France or Lanfang. This has nothing to do with history, culture, or past glory. It is just love from the heart and a sense of pride in the bones. .

"Batti, I understand what you mean, but you also have to understand that France and Lanfang are brothers after all, not father and son. You can't expect Lanfang to give such unrestricted contributions forever, just like now, regardless of Lanfang. Fang will find out. As long as France expresses interest, Lan Fang will compromise. This situation is not normal. We should keep in touch, so that we can maintain a longer relationship. "Qin Zhiyuan wants to break up with Bastien. Only by talking about it can Bastian understand the profound meaning.

"It's easy for you to say it, but you don't know how difficult it is to do it. During the World War, because we all faced a common threat, all French people could share the same hatred. We faced the Germans together, fought against the Germans together, and the French soldiers Courage, the bravery of France, but after the world war, all this is gone, we have no imminent threat, no power. The danger of Baoxi, so everything is business as usual. The ruling party can ignore the truth in order to please the voters, and the opposition party can do whatever it takes to get votes. France now is such a chaos and no order. We have all seen this, but we all There is nothing I can do." Bastian felt distressed. He was no longer a simple soldier. Bastian could see the essence of many things through phenomena.

"This is a problem faced by the whole world, and it is not unique to France." What could Qin Zhiyuan say? He could only comfort him without any pain.

"So, we are fed up with democracy now. If France becomes a dictatorship, then we don't have to worry so much..." Bastian really didn't hesitate to speak.

Autocratic France!

This topic was too big and Qin Zhiyuan really didn't dare to take it up.
