Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 588 The power of weapons

After the two people finished chatting, Li Zhaoji left first. Bao Zixuan was pulled by Michael Kadoorie because he had something to talk about. It was mainly Michael Kadoorie who briefed him on the situation in Iraq. He had never had time to report the situation before. Now that I have finally met Mr. Bao, I must talk to him about Iraq's needs.

The first batch of Heiyun's modified weapons and equipment has been shipped to Iraq. Iraq, which is extremely short of weapons and equipment, was sent directly to the battlefield after simply getting familiar with the performance of the weapons.

The Iraqi military was originally just trying it out, and even the top military officials were just doing errands. After all, frontline soldiers cannot be allowed to fight Iran with light weapons. If so, it would be strange if the soldiers did not mutiny. It is very possible to shoot black guns at officers. Now that there are tanks that can handle the errands, it is also an explanation for the soldiers.

But what no one expected was that these old weapons and equipment were very powerful. Compared with Iran's most advanced armored vehicles and tanks, it is not inferior; it can even form an overwhelming advantage.

Bao Zixuan's first batch of tank modifications was for his own enjoyment. The most important thing was that Hei Yun had all the drawings and technical data of German tanks in his hands. After being modernized and modified, it unexpectedly showed extraordinary combat effectiveness, which is definitely beyond everyone's imagination.

In addition, the weapons purchased by Iran basically come from the United States, mainly from the period of the Palestinian dynasty. Not to mention that for some years now, the most important weapons exported by Americans are emasculated versions; as such, there is still no supply of spare parts, so it is not surprising that the weapons modified by Heiyun can take advantage of them.

Michael Kadoorie said excitedly: "Sheng Bao, you don't know that our weapons have exerted great power. The Iraqi military, which thought I was selling junk before, is now eager to turn me into a prisoner." Heiyun's product has indeed received a different response. , never disappoints.”

"Iraq wants to place additional orders. After all, the battlefield situation is not optimistic. However, the factory in Jordan cannot be put into production in the short term. Should we let the headquarters factory of Xiangjiang Heiyun Group participate in the modification?"

Bao Zixuan did not expect that the Iraqis would use weapons and equipment so quickly. It seemed that they were really beaten. It was probably a dead horse used as a live horse doctor. Unexpectedly, the effect was better than that of a live horse.

Bao Zixuan: "This is a solution at the moment, but the production capacity here in Xiangjiang is limited and can only be supplied in small batches."

Now the production of other products has made the Xiangjiang factory a little busy. Just because they don't want to lose the Iraqi customer, they stepped up a batch of modifications for them. After all, the other party's oil is still eye-catching.

Although the economy and situation in Iraq will not be optimistic for many years to come, as long as the other side does not invade Kuwait, it will not become the target of public criticism. Moreover, the main purpose of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait was to relieve debt and economic pressure. If Heiyun and Baohuodong Mining Company could provide funds to support the Iraqis, they would not necessarily take this risk.

In addition, they were deceived by the Americans. As long as the evidence is handed over to the Iraqis, there should be no invasion. Even if Iraq is weak, it will not dare to be the enemy of the whole world. In this way, there will be no problems in the oil fields invested by Heiyun and Baohuodong Mining Company in Iraq, and profits and risks will always coexist.

Michael Kadoorie: "There should be no problem. The war is relatively peaceful now. It will be difficult to break the balance in the short term. Both sides are accumulating strength. But after all, this is not a long-term solution. When will the factory in Jordan be put into production."

Bao Zixuan: "It will be put into production in May this year. I think Iraq should be able to sustain it in a few months! As long as the Jordanian factory is put into production, we can replenish it with whatever weapons and equipment Iraq consumes."

Ustinov Jr. not only sold old weapons and equipment, but also transported the production lines that had been dismantled from Germany. It can be said that after modernization and modification by Heiyun, it can definitely meet the consumption of armored vehicles and tanks of the Iraqi military.

At that time, in order to limit the rise of Germany, the Soviet Union relocated almost all its military factories to the Soviet Union. They just don't need it and don't want the production lines to be taken away by Britain and the United States. Soviet-made weapons are very different from German-made weapons, so these production lines are basically placed in warehouses.

During this period, the Soviets had not yet entered the unscrupulous state of the late 1980s, so the German military production lines were still intact in the Soviet strategic reserve warehouses.

Michael Kadoorie was very happy to hear that Bao Zixuan was so confident. He smiled and said, "I don't understand industrial matters, but as one of the world's top industrial experts, your guarantee is absolutely convincing."

"You don't know that the price of our weapons and equipment is only one-quarter of that of the Soviet Union and one-sixth of that of the United States, which is 30% lower than the price quoted by China. And the performance is not inferior to any of them at all, and it is definitely a hot commodity."

"Now not only Iraq, but other countries in the Middle East are interested in these weapons. But the only trouble is that the Iranians have also found me and have given me a warning. At the same time, they also want to introduce a batch."

When Bao Zixuan heard about Huaxia, he knew that he had changed history again. Huaxia had also exported materials to Iraq, but now it was intercepted by the Heiyun Group. He didn't know how to face it in the future. It seemed that he could only take one step at a time.

It's okay for other countries, but Iran's purchase intention is indeed a trouble. After all, the whole world is now blocking them. At this time, it is estimated that no one except North Korea dares to do business with the Iranians.

Bao Zixuan: "Iran is indeed a troublesome problem, but doing business with Iran now is easy to find trouble; Heiyun Group does not want to lie in this muddy water."

"The Iranians have contacted Heiyun Group before to introduce ground effect aircraft, but I used British sanctions as an excuse to prevent them. Ground effect aircraft are large equipment, and as soon as they appear, everyone knows that Heiyun has sold them, so The Iranian side is not in trouble, but tanks do not have these problems, so you need to find your own reasons to negotiate. While making money, you also have to bear responsibilities and risks. I think everyone understands this truth."

Michael Kadoorie also knew that Bao Zixuan definitely did not want to do business with the Iranians, and so did he himself. But sometimes I really don’t dare to refuse, after all, there are Israeli intentions behind it.

Israel does not want to see Iraq win easily and become stronger, in which case Iraq will become the new hegemon in the Arab world. Israel is not very worried about a pack of wolves without a leader, but once a leader appears in this pack, the situation of the Jews will be very bad.

Therefore, this war is definitely an opportunity for Israel. The Jews really hope that they can fight for a hundred years. If the Arab world is supporting Iraq, it will have no energy to do anything else. Israel can take the opportunity to vigorously develop its own economy and technology.

It can be said that it is not Michael Kadoorie who wants to sell weapons and equipment to the Iranians, but the Israeli direction wants him to do so. It's just that he didn't dare to explain these things, after all, he wanted the Arabs to know that he was still alive.

In fact, Bao Zixuan and the Iranians did not talk to each other to death, which meant that they could be purchased through transit procedures in other countries. Moreover, several sets of spare parts can be prepared before leaving the factory and treated as gifts.

Iran also has abundant oil reserves, which will definitely be profitable in the future. If Heiyun wants to develop well, it must find more opponents for the Americans, and Iran is a good choice.

The two chatted about other things before Bao Zixuan left. Thinking that he wouldn't go home for a few days, he drove towards home.

Bao Zixuan has been thinking about problems on the way. Whether it is weapon modification or headquarters construction, he has to face many problems. Michael Kadoorie made money without taking responsibility or risk. There is nothing so cheap in the world. There are gains and losses, and you have to do things when you get money.

However, if the armed forces have been tested in battle, many opportunities can be advanced. Otherwise, what's the point of spending so much money to obtain a military industrial license?

Although the idea of ​​testing Lee Shau Kee was very selfish, the plan he proposed was very feasible. The top priority now was to communicate with Governor Youde in advance to see what the old boy's attitude was. If we fail to capture Tai Mo Shan, our plans will be interrupted, and we will have to expand to other places. Even the cost of reclamation and road construction will be very high.

Now we can only go to Yoder first and see what he thinks. If the Hong Kong government does not agree, then everything is empty talk. However, Lee Shau Kee must have done some research in advance before he could come up with this idea. Otherwise, he would never say it out easily. Wouldn’t it be very uncomfortable to say it to yourself when it can’t be done at all?

Now that Li Shauji still has something to ask of him, he should not deceive himself. Now it depends on which aspect can impress Yoder. This is the first thing to be solved.

Guo Desheng should be easy to handle, but do we really want to find Zhang Yuliang now? Then there would really be no room for maneuver in the future. I would probably have to marry Zhang Youran in this life, otherwise there would be no difference from Chen Shimei.

The more he thought about it, the more headache he got. Bao Shoufang simply stopped thinking about it and decided to go home and have a good chat with his mother. This way he could not only fulfill his filial duty but also relieve his mood.
