From arms dealer to king of war

Chapter 992 French Naval Group

Steven is now somewhat used to Boss Joe's various bizarre practices...

Anyway, this guy hasn’t lost so far!

Facing Boss Joe's request, Steven took the initiative to find Jorge Andres and Matias.

There is no need for him to do anything extraordinary. At this stage, it is enough to verbally express a little support and, if there is a chance in the future, ask to see them by name when meeting with the Brazilian upper-level officials.

Boss Qiao made the matter clear and stopped talking nonsense to them.

The business plan is there, and the only obstacle is whether the government agencies represented by Jorge Andres are willing to put in the effort.

In contrast, in this business model, the most difficult financial issues and personnel management issues are actually the simplest.

In order to make the kitten laugh, Boss Qiao planned to spend 500 million US dollars in it in the early stage.

The materials required for each link are readily available and can be purchased from China as long as you pay.

The remaining personnel management is the easiest part for a company with gangs as its main skeleton.

The gangster brother serves as the boss of the rider brother. They can be considered conscientious by not deducting the rider's salary. Under the intimidation of the gangster brother, the rider brother must work conscientiously.

Including those pretentious guests, there probably won't be too much nonsense.

The food delivery industry is not just about increasing employment, there are many spin-off industries that can be added to it.

The most direct one is a motorcycle or an electric car...

The price of oil in Brazil is not high, and the demand for motorcycles in the tens or even hundreds of thousands is a huge profit.

Not to mention the catering packaging industry...

This thing is like selling shovels in a gold mine. It is a business that is absolutely guaranteed to make a profit.

This is also the main profit-making project prepared by Boss Qiao for Anderson. It may seem inconspicuous, but the profit is definitely not low.

In addition to these two items, there are also profit points such as advertising...

There are tens of thousands of guys delivering food in a city. How much should they charge for printing advertisements on their cars and clothes?

A company with so many employees has so many ways to create benefits!

Using gangs as the skeleton allows the company to reduce labor costs and at the same time build a job moat for those in slums.

Managing talents is the most difficult part of starting a company, but from another perspective, it is not difficult to manage people by fully mobilizing the gang's capabilities.

It sounds a bit immoral to do this, but for those poor people, all they have to do is save enough money and leave.

This is Boss Qiao's habitual approach. The most difficult things must be shared out and let everyone share the responsibility. This will not only increase their sense of responsibility, but also increase their sense of belonging.

The bulk of the money is placed in P·B Bank and Jialiang Trading!

This business model only requires hiring an experienced manager, controlling costs and internal corruption issues, and it is still no problem to be responsible for its own profits and losses.

Boss Qiao didn't avoid people when he was bragging in the reception room.

From time to time, someone would pass by and take a look, and then finally put together a complete business plan, which began to spread among the elites in the club.

Basically everyone who heard Boss Qiao’s business plan couldn’t help but give a thumbs up but shook their heads.

Everyone here is a stand-in person. They need to be responsible for their own country and enterprises. A business plan like Boss Qiao's will never be approved by them.

But this does not prevent these people from understanding the meaning and admiring Boss Qiao's broadmindedness and courage!

Even if such people cannot become friends, they must become familiar with each other if there is a chance.

Pierre from France was originally a friend. He took Boss Qiao and walked into the circle of the French business group amidst the applause of everyone, and introduced him one by one...

The focus is on Juste Fontaine, the head of the French Naval Group.

This big-nosed old man who seems to be full of energy can be called flattering in his attitude towards Boss Qiao.

The old man, who was almost seventy years old, hugged Boss Qiao, kissed and chewed him, and kept praising P·B as a great company.

Then he enthusiastically pulled Boss Qiao to sit down on the sofa in the corner, and began to brag to him endlessly about the strength and advanced products of French Naval Group.

Boss Qiao was still not fully awake from the grand plan he had just planned. After politely dealing with it for a while, he realized that Juste Fontaine was selling warships to him.

Of course, he would not expect Boss Qiao to place an order, but would rather rely on the sales channels in Boss Qiao's hands.

The total price of the four 056 frigates ordered by Abu Dhabi Chaoqiao boss reached US$1.6 billion.

This is no longer an issue that makes people jealous, this is a huge deal that makes people bleed.

The transaction process was all completed through Boss Qiao. The actual price of 056 was less than US$120 million, but it was sold for a sky-high price of US$400 million.

Everyone thinks that the people in Abu Dhabi are out of their minds, but after sending people to contact them privately, they found that they are just happy, even if they know that 056 is not worth so much money, they are still happy.

At this time, anyone with a little common sense would understand that there must be some private transactions between Abu Dhabi and Boss Qiao.

It wasn't until Juste Fontaine came to Brazil to figure out the Yemen plan that he understood Boss Joe's status among several super tycoons in the Middle East.

He alone is a terrifying sales channel!

Such a person is still a Monaco national. The French Ministry of Commerce and Trade has not had close cooperation with him in the past, but has hindered him in Sangha Town. This makes Juste Fontaine extremely dissatisfied!

Four premium frigates. French Naval Group has not received such a high-profit order for many years...

Now, China will deliver four hulls within two years, and then send them to the shipyard affiliated with the French Naval Group to complete the installation of electronic equipment and weapon systems.

Although the order value is still as high as about 360 million US dollars, how can it be better than winning it directly?

The French Naval Group (DCNS) is the same as the Russian Mikoyan Design Bureau, with no orders!

DCNS designed and built the Mistral class, Horizon class, Aquitaine class, and the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier.

They are truly a giant enterprise controlled by French state-owned assets, and they have always been a major exporter in the past.

It is a pity that giants also need to bow to the market. As time goes by and technology advances, the increasingly terrifying construction and maintenance costs of large ships have made most countries in the world prohibitive.

Those who have the ability and need can build it themselves, such as Italian shipyards, and they will also participate in market competition.

Other buyers such as India are too deeply influenced by the British, and Naval Group cannot grab orders.

The orders they currently have are for several low-profile 'Light Chasing Wind-class' offshore patrol vessels within the European Union and Argentina. For this reason, they still have to worry that customers may not be able to pay the final payment at any time.

Boss Qiao got four shells for them to modify. To be honest, it was a bit insulting, but the 360 ​​million US dollars was really delicious.

Juste Fontaine is interested in in-depth cooperation with Boss Qiao. As long as there are orders for three or five ordinary "Chasing Wind Class" ships, Naval Group's life will be much easier in the next few years.

The current financial situation of the French government is so bad that major arms sales groups urgently need to find new profit points, otherwise problems will arise sooner or later.

Boss Qiao said a few words absentmindedly. He was not very interested in French Naval Group because the price they asked was really too high!

The order to transform 056 was given to them because it was necessary to maintain the relationship with France, otherwise Italians would be Boss Qiao's ideal partner.

Juste Fontaine has been chatting with Boss Qiao about the development history of Naval Group. After realizing that Boss Qiao was a little absent-minded, the old man said with a smile: "Jackal, you are the most capable young man I have ever seen. I represent Naval Group invites you to visit our headquarters.

France has the world's top shipbuilding technology, and we can meet any of your needs. "

Qiao Jia could probably guess Juste Fontaine's intention to hold him back. He waved his hand and said: "Sir, I am personally happy to cooperate with Naval Group, but to be honest, the profit from cooperation with you is not high enough.

The reason I was able to make a lot of money trading with Abu Dhabi was actually a kind of compensation for the profits I gave up in other areas.

You should know the price of my cooperation with Abu Dhabi. The actual cost of 1,600 tons of 056 is only US$120 million.

They are also light frigates. How much do the 1,400-ton ‘Light Chasing Wind-class’ and the 3,000-ton ‘Zhui Feng-class’ cost respectively? "

When Juste Fontaine heard this, he sighed and said, "Jackal, you can't just look at the price. Our level of building warships is world-class.

If you can really help us sell it, I can lower the price of the ultra-light displacement 1,400-ton "Feng Chasing Class" to about US$150 million.

For an ordinary 3,000-ton ‘Chasing Wind’ class, our normal external selling price without weapons is US$400 million. If you…”

Qiao Jia shook his head decisively and said: "Sir, I'm sorry!

On some things, I can accept not making money or even losing a little, but in the simple arms business, I have to respect the laws of the market.

I personally like French warships. They are indeed beautiful and advanced, but I cannot do business that cannot make money.

But if our cooperation can be a complete success this time, I believe there will be similar cooperation between us in the future. "

Juste Fontaine smiled and shook his head and said: "Jackal, don't refuse me in a hurry..."

Maybe you don't know us well enough. I'm not in a hurry. I believe our sincerity can impress you.

So be it, I know you have deep influence in Greece and they are looking to retrofit their own frigates.

We have participated in the bidding, but the feedback we have received so far is not very good.

If you can help us get to the final stage, or even help us get the order, I will provide you with extra rewards. "

After hearing this, Qiao Jia frowned, raised his palms, and said, "I'm sorry, I have to call and ask first..."

I don’t promise anything I can’t do! "
