The military-industrial scientific research system of the academic master.

It is well known that the relationship between the Greek and Turkish families is not good.

In fact, in the 90s alone, there were no less than ten conflicts between them.

Among them, there were four direct exchanges of fire.

Overall, everyone has their own losses.

Not only are they fighting each other to the death, but at least their hatred is as deep as the ocean.

Ordinarily, if this is the case, the normal direction of development should be for both sides to find someone to hug each other, and then launch an arms race, ready to defeat the other side at any time.

Even if you can't do it, you still have to find a way to keep disgusting the other person.

However, the situation of these two companies is quite special——

Because they are both NATO countries, at least in the past few decades, the two sides have mainly been interested in the United States...

No matter who suffers a loss, the first reaction is to go to Washington to complain, and then either asks for more military assistance or buys better weapons and equipment. Anyway, he is preparing to get the situation back.

Therefore, although it cannot be said that no one has thought about this strategy of using Greece to control the soil, it has not entered the formal discussion stage.

Operability is too low.

However, for Ding Gaoheng, since it was Chang Haonan's idea, it was necessary to at least listen to it no matter what.

"Tell me about your plan?"

He adjusted his sitting position and assumed a listening posture.

"Although we really have no way to influence Greece, negotiations are mainly about bluffing..."

……

It was not until a few hours later, that is, the next morning local time, that Ankara, which had held a closed-door meeting for a whole day, announced that the Bosporus Authority had received the situation document from Luchuang Group. , both parties will resolve the issue through dialogue on an equal and open basis——

Although everyone can see that this matter has risen to the official level of both parties, you still have to be more careful with the words you use when making announcements.

As soon as these words came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Things are finally back on what everyone considers to be "on track."

Of course, the so-called equality and openness definitely does not exist. Just listen to the opposite...

As for the meeting place…

Considering that this incident is so special, the finalized negotiation method is also very complicated.

First of all, neither side is willing to go to the other side's territory to talk.

There's nothing unusual about this.

Therefore, as usual, the location for the face-to-face confrontation was chosen in a hotel in Budapest.

But the person sitting at the negotiating table was not the plenipotentiary usually seen in such situations.

It is just a mouthpiece, responsible for conveying the decisions made in the country.

There is quite a sense of déjà vu that “you can obviously make a phone call directly, but you have to write a letter and ask someone else to make the call on your behalf.”

This method of negotiation was relatively common in the era of secret diplomacy in the 19th century or even earlier.

But no one has used it for almost a century...

Of course, it's not entirely without benefits.

For example, the core negotiation team does not need to face outsiders directly, nor does it need to go abroad.

There is therefore less need to consider size and membership constraints.

Chang Haonan naturally entered the list along with Ding Gaoheng.

"Director Ding, why would you use such a method..."

Sitting in the large conference room specially prepared for the negotiation team, Chang Haonan looked at the negotiation outline in front of him and asked Ding Gaoheng next to him in confusion.

He originally wanted to use such an abstract method, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was a formal occasion, and there were comrades from other units around, so it was difficult to express it too directly.

But for a while, I really couldn't find any other adjective.

However, Shen Shengguang, the head of negotiations at the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, who was one seat away, had a very good ear. Hearing Chang Haonan's question, he immediately picked up the conversation:

"On this point, we are also very surprised that Ankara insists on it."

"But we don't have many chips in our hands. If we struggle with the other party for too long on such trivial details as negotiation methods, it will be even more disadvantageous."

Chang Haonan showed an expression that he couldn't bear to look at:

"But as a result, the efficiency of negotiations will definitely be reduced. I'm afraid it will take days to calculate. As for the tug fleet..."

At this time, a man wearing a navy uniform also joined the topic:

"The Varyag cannot anchor, and it is difficult to stop the ship. They are temporarily allowed to slow down and circle on the high seas. If there is really no way to reach a conclusion in a short time, then they can only find a port to dock, or return to the Black Sea first. The shipyard...I suspect that this method was chosen because the other party saw our difficulties and wanted to deliberately delay time..."

"Then I don't think so."

Shen Shengguang slowly shook his head:

"If this is the case, they can choose a less efficient method, such as hiring a special envoy to go on a trip, returning halfway through the conversation, and then inviting us to send a special envoy there... This is what we did in the past when we wanted to delay time... …”

Halfway through, he noticed several strange looks from around him:

"Why are you looking at me like that... This is all strategy! Can strategic matters be called dirty..."

What followed were words that were difficult to understand, such as "A soldier never tires of deceit" and the like.

Fortunately, the occasion was quite serious and it was impossible for everyone to burst into laughter.

So Shen Shengguang quickly returned to the topic:

"In short, since they still chose to send a delegation to face-to-face talks, they also want to reach a conclusion quickly, but they really can't understand why they don't give the negotiators sufficient authority..."

"After all, in recent months, their domestic economic situation has been unstable. There have been rumors in the financial market that foreign investors are going to withdraw their capital in a concentrated manner. If they can't quickly inject confidence, then I guess they will collapse at the slightest sign of trouble... …”

"So Lao Shen."

Ding Gaoheng, who had not had a chance to speak just now, finally spoke:

"You mean that the other party's conditions will be focused on economic and trade aspects?"

"Then you still need to ask?"

As the leader in charge of foreign economic and trade, Shen Shengguang immediately straightened his back and patted his chest:

"Otherwise, why do you think the superiors would send me here?"

"I don't think so..."

Soon someone expressed different opinions, triggering a small-scale discussion.

"..."

"Several leaders, is there such a possibility..."

Chang Haonan, who was the trigger, wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly interrupted the competition among the big guys:

"The reason why the Turks did not send an extraordinary and plenipotentiary representative is because the forces of all parties are so complex and their interests are so different that it is impossible to select a negotiator who can represent the interests of everyone?"

Everyone looked at each other and suddenly felt that something made sense.

After all, they can argue because of a little bit of competitiveness, and the situation on the other side will only become more serious...

However, just when someone wanted to say something, the first news from Budapest finally came back.

"Dear leaders, excluding technical issues related to navigation methods, there are a total of four conditions proposed by Turkey."

A staff member walked up to the small podium where the microphone was placed.

"This Turk really dares to raise... the first time he opens his mouth, he has four demands..."

Shen Shengguang shook his head and complained softly:

"Those who don't know better think they are Americans..."

At this time, the staff on the stage had also opened the folder in their hands:

“The first is to require an advance payment of US$20 billion in navigation deposits as compulsory insurance to offset the risks caused by large unpowered ships passing through the strait. This insurance is irrevocable within five years and must be guaranteed by Turkey’s domestic banks.”

If everyone was just complaining on a small scale just now, after reading the first piece of content, the scene immediately exploded.

"How many?"

"$20 billion in premiums? How much are they prepared to insure?"

"No, take a closer look. This thing is said to be insurance, but in fact it is asking our country for an interest-free loan of 20 billion yuan! And it is an interest-free loan without any conditions attached. How can such a good thing be possible?"

"..."

Generally speaking, for things like international loans, there is a high probability that even the principal is unlikely to be recovered, at least not all of it.

And the reason why many countries are still willing to lend despite knowing this is because it is usually part of the package.

For example, country A lends a sum of money to country B, but requires that the money can only be used to purchase products or services from country A.

It is equivalent to the money not leaving the country at all.

Then use some natural resources or legal rights as guarantee.

I didn't expect to get the money back, I just needed to get the collateral.

But this wave of Turks is equivalent to actually asking for help.

These 20 billion US dollars will not stay in China, but will actually be handed over to the other side.

Let’s not say whether they will pay back the money in five years.

Even if it is possible, such a large amount of money will not be lent out for 5 years without interest...

The last time this happened was probably before the socialist family was disbanded...

Therefore, the reaction at the scene was quite normal.

"Okay, how inappropriate is it to make a noise!"

In the end, it was the leader of the negotiating delegation who spoke out and silenced everyone:

"Let the little comrade explain the situation first!"

With the support of the boss, the staff on the stage breathed a sigh of relief and continued speaking quickly:

"The second is to require our country to include Turkey in the list of destination countries for citizens to travel abroad, and not to set additional restrictions on Chinese citizens traveling abroad with Turkey as their destination."

“Third, our country is required to invest no less than US$5 million in Turkey within two years, of which the amount of industrial-related investment is no less than US$3 million.”

"The fourth is to request that my country Aerospace Power Group be allowed to cooperate with Tusas Engine Industry Company to jointly develop the TF10000 engine project."

After finishing speaking, he took out a piece of official paper from the folder and placed it on the stage of the projector. Then he gave a slight greeting to everyone in the venue and quickly turned around and slipped out.
