Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Saibei Province in mid-July is the hottest time of the year.

The sun was scorching, and the earth was like a burning furnace. The blazing sunshine heated every corner.

No matter where you go, you can't help but be covered in sweat.

At noon, Kurodai and Basang, surrounded by a group of guards, arrived at the 18th Research Institute on time.

When Heidai and others arrived at the entrance of the institute, Zhou Yang was already waiting for them.

After getting off the car, Heidai took the initiative to give Zhou Yang a hug and said with a smile: "Handsome, knowledgeable and high-status scientist Zhou, I am very happy to receive your invitation again. I am in your body." I feel the enthusiasm of your Chinese people, and may our friendship last forever like an evergreen tree!"

Hearing this series of compliments, Zhou Yang felt quite happy.

This was not just a direct reaction after hearing other people's praise, but more importantly, Zhou Yang saw sincerity in Heidai's eyes.

According to his understanding of the humanities and customs in the Middle East, when they greet others, the more they respect each other, the more they have to add some complimentary words, and if necessary, they will also add the other person's position, degree and other titles.

Furthermore, when these camels in the Middle East meet their friends, they usually shake hands.

But if you value someone particularly, you will give a hug, and some will even give a kiss to express mutual respect and love.

Kurodai was full of compliments and hugs when they met, and it was obvious that he really regarded him as a friend.

"Your Highness, I'm really sorry for last night. I really have a limited capacity to drink..."

Before he finished speaking, Heishiro said: "It doesn't matter. This will show you Zhou that you are a true-hearted person."

After a brief exchange of greetings, Zhou Yang walked into the institute with Heidai, Basang and others.

However, Zhou Yang did not take them to the canteen, but went directly to the office.

Firstly, the canteen has to serve thousands of officers, soldiers and scientific researchers of the unit. It is noisy and unsuitable for inviting people to eat.

Secondly, the food in the cafeteria also conflicts with Kuroshiro's beliefs. We can't let Kuroshiro and others eat beef and mutton while watching the soldiers eat braised pork.

Therefore, Zhou Yang placed the dining place in his office.

Just remove the small coffee table, tables and chairs in the room, spread a piece of felt on the ground, and put a small square table on it.

After the guests and hosts were seated, Zhou Yang greeted the people in the cafeteria to serve the food and said with a smile: "The conditions are simple, please don't dislike it, His Highness the Prince and the Minister!"

Heishiro smiled and said: "Zhou, you Chinese people all say, "Send goose feathers thousands of miles away, but the courtesy is light but the affection is heavy." The simple conditions are an objective condition, but we have already felt your enthusiasm!"

Basang also echoed: "Friendship between friends cannot be measured by material things. As long as there is sincere friendship, even if it is just a piece of naan and a bowl of water, it is also a delicious meal!"

"Yes, yes, if you two say this, I feel relieved..."

Just as he was talking, the dishes from the canteen were also delivered.

Compared with yesterday's family banquet, today's lunch dishes are richer and more exquisite.

In addition to charcoal grilled lamb chops and pan-fried steak, there are also chicken stewed with mushrooms, tomato stewed beef brisket, braised lamb, etc.

Although Kuroda, Basang and others have tasted Chinese dishes a lot in the past few days, and they are all cooked by state banquet chefs.

But this was their first time eating northwest food, and their taste buds were immediately satisfied. The only pity was that Zhou Yang didn't prepare wine for them today...

After eating seventy percent full, Heishiro suddenly said: "Zhou, does what you said yesterday still count?"

"Your Highness, what are you talking about?" Zhou Yang put down his chopsticks and asked.

"It's about the new weapons that we want to buy from your country!" Kuroshiro said straight to the point.

Zhou Yang looked at Hei Dai and then said: "Isn't this matter under discussion? Hasn't there been an agreement yet?"

"No, your country does not agree to sell new weapons to us!" Heidai said helplessly.

Zhou Yang was silent for a moment, and then said: "Can you tell me which step we are talking about?"

Basan immediately said: "Originally, we planned to order 15 billion U.S. dollars of new equipment from your country, but your country refused. In the morning, we increased the order amount to 18 billion U.S. dollars, but you still refused. ..”

Before he finished speaking, Heidai immediately said: "Zhou, I know you are the person in charge of this base, so I hope you can help us!"

Zhou Yang frowned and thought for a while, and then said: "Your Highness, Minister Basang, I can understand your mood, but these new equipment have not even been installed by the vast majority of our country's troops, and they are indeed not on the list of foreign trade equipment. middle."

"Under normal circumstances, even I would not dare to make the decision to sell these advanced equipment to you without authorization, but..."

Hearing that there was a turning point, Heidai and Basang's breathing tightened, and their eyes were fixed on Zhou Yang.

"But because there are some situations in our base now, I can indeed propose to the superiors to sell these advanced weapons and equipment to you, but there must be conditions!" Zhou Yang said.

"Whatever the conditions are, as long as we can do it, we will definitely do it!" Heidai said immediately.

Ever since he saw the power of those high-end weapons and equipment yesterday, his heart has never been at peace, especially the anti-tank missile, which is simply the nemesis of armored forces.

Just one anti-tank missile vehicle can easily wipe out a tank company. If they can have one or two hundred such anti-tank missile vehicles, they can easily deal with 10 enemy armored divisions.

More importantly, Kurodai knew his father's plan. If nothing unexpected happened, his father would soon launch an attack on the group of pagans in the north.

Before that, they must capture these cutting-edge equipment at all costs.

Zhou Yang thought for a while and said: "First of all, the contract amount will be increased to 30 billion US dollars, of which 15 billion US dollars will be used to purchase ordinary equipment, and the remaining 15 billion US dollars will be used to purchase new equipment!"

hiss!

Hearing the first condition proposed by Zhou Yang, both Heidai and Basang couldn't help but take a breath.

The order amount of US$30 billion is too high and has far exceeded their budget.

During this trip, the total procurement amount approved by the President and the Department of Defense was around US$15 billion, which must not exceed US$20 billion.

But when Zhou Yang opened his mouth, he asked for 30 billion U.S. dollars, which was almost double what the president and the Ministry of Defense gave him.

"Zhou, 30 billion US dollars is too much..."

Before Basang could finish speaking, Zhou Yang interrupted him directly and said, "His Royal Highness, Minister Basang, let me tell you the truth. The reason why I took a huge risk to help you in this matter is, Ultimately, it’s because our base needs money.”

"You two may not know that our base has been operated with government funding before. But this year, due to the poor economic situation, the government funding is only about half of the original amount. The scientific research and production of the entire base have been greatly affected."

"If we can promote cooperation with your country and sell the cutting-edge equipment produced by our unit, our base will share a part of the profit. I have calculated that if we want to maintain the base and operate it until next spring, your country will need at least Purchase $15 billion in new equipment.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Heishiro said in a deep voice: "Can we purchase less ordinary weapons and equipment?"

Zhou Yang immediately shook his head and said: "No, the military originally wanted to use you to digest part of the inventory. As for those high-end equipment, it doesn't matter whether they sell them or not. After all, they don't have enough!"

"So, if you want to get those high-end equipment, you must meet the needs of the military and our base at the same time."

Then, Zhou Yang changed his voice and said again: "Of course, as a friend, I can't let you suffer. I can find a way to help you add another quasi-third-generation fighter to your purchase list!"

As soon as these words came out, Heidai and Basang were stunned.

The two looked at each other and thought they had heard wrong.

Seeing their movements and expressions, Zhou Yang knew it was time to use his ultimate move...
