Yang Cheng found that there were a group of fully armed soldiers on the streets of Luxor. Although they were not as good as a three-step, one post and one whistle every five steps, setting up a patrol point every 50 meters was enough to ensure that every blind spot on the streets of Luxor was covered by sight. They looked depressed and their vicious eyes passed by ordinary people, as if they were all suspects.

Sitting in the car prepared by Mohammed, looking out the window and curling the corners of his mouth, he could imagine the scene of Nassev jumping. It would be better if he could provoke Nassev's relationship with the military.

After the person was successfully rescued, Yang Cheng was considered to have fewer worries. The next step was to contact Boeing, and also to allow Congress to pass this arms sale through Richard Debin's relationship. Of course, Boeing is not a vegetarian. In order to pass this order of up to $5 billion, Boeing will definitely find ways to lobby the congressmen and release the arms sale.

Mohammed also sent someone to Paris. He needed to let the French zf take the floor and unilaterally disrupt the negotiation process. Boeing would enter the market and contact the zf. At the same price, the Rafale fighter really couldn't compete with the F/A18 Super Bumblebee. After all, the Super Bumblebee has been tested by war. In layman's terms, the size of the Super Bumblebee is about 20% greater than that of the Rafale. Don't underestimate this 20%, which means more advanced electromechanical equipment and more ammunition equipment.

Compared with the all-roundness emphasized by Rafale, the Super Hornet is a truly multi-purpose fighter, which has a strong deterrent power in both ground and air combat. Rafale is an air-optimal fighter, and its advantages in ground attacks are not obvious. When the prices are similar, the Egyptian military can clearly understand which one is better.

However, Yang Cheng knew that arms sales were never something that could be negotiated in just a few words. The relationship between countries was the primary consideration for whether arms sales could be achieved. In the United States' Middle East strategy, Egypt has always been an important piece on this big chess board. Especially in the past few years, because a foolish second generation in the United States was slap in Egypt and was taken away by Egypt. The relationship between the two sides suddenly changed from an ally to a former ally. If the United States had not been entangled in Syria and Iran over the years, Egypt would have long become a test site for the United States' new weapons.

Although the new zf has come to power, the relationship between the two sides has not made substantial progress. The deadlock is the best situation that both sides can imagine. Under such circumstances, will zf bow to the United States through purchasing arms? Yang Cheng is not sure. On the surface, it seems to be $5 billion, but to calculate it, the benefits involved are far more than $5 billion.

In addition to the huge single transaction amount at the beginning, the subsequent continuous returns and additional zz returns are the big ones.

First of all, the reason for the huge profits in arms trade and the far-reaching impact is its high monopoly. No more than ten countries in the world can independently produce and build third-generation fighter jets, no more than five countries can produce high-performance air defense missiles, ten countries can build third-generation main battle tanks, no more than seven countries can build regional air defense ships, and ballistic missile technology is even more in the hands of a few military powers.

This leads to countries without production capacity that can only seek help from military powers. This is an extreme monopoly industry. Moreover, because of its significance, this monopoly is protected by zf and becomes a tool for zf to reach its destination.

For example, the export price of the F-35 fighter jet was around US$180 million the year before yesterday. What does it mean? The price of a Boeing 737-700 is US$85 million.

This is over? It’s not that simple. The logistics maintenance and regular maintenance of the F-35 are generally not possible. The country must find Boeing, a manufacturer. This is another crazy extra income, and the money needs to be paid periodically, not a one-time transaction. According to statistics, the benefits brought by the replacement of logistics maintenance parts of a fighter during its life period are much greater than the sales price of this aircraft. The money for selling two of the aircraft to the bank is not so profitable;

Think this is over? Haha, have your pilots seen a fourth-generation aircraft? Have you ever flown a fourth-generation aircraft? Do you know what is over-visual air combat? No? Come on, as long as you are willing to pay, your buddy will give you training. If you book a church for a year, this is a link that you can never avoid. You can only learn. When you buy Apache in Daiwan, you had to go to the United States to train in advance, let alone things like the fourth-generation aircraft. You should know that the profession of pilots is comparable to national treasures in any country. You can train you a weapon that may backfire in the future. If you don’t charge you a sky-high price, you will be sorry for that aircraft;

Don't worry, this is not over yet! Fighter technology is updated very quickly, especially avionics systems. This year, I recommend a new phased array radar to you, which is more powerful than pulsed Doppler. I will recommend an active phased array radar to you next year. I will not know how powerful than passive ones. I may come to you to sell plasma radar to you the year after. Anyway, new cabbage will take the initiative to deliver it to you every year. In order to keep up with the world trend, these small countries can only grit their teeth and sell their blood and cut their flesh;

That, sorry, it's still not over! Fighters are just weapons platforms, weapons are another matter. You can't buy an empty rack and go back without deterrence, right? You can't use your own slingshot to install on the fourth-generation aircraft, right? It doesn't matter, Boeing will list a series of weapons, such as laser guidance bombs, empty fighting bombs, medium-range interceptor bombs, secondary fuel tanks, conformal fuel tanks, external electronic warfare pods, and invisible paint that you have to brush every time you come back from attendance. None of them is free, and all TMs are consumables.

Of course, you can't let it go, and I didn't force you, but look at the little one next to you who has many fourth-generation machines, which are more numerous than you and have no vague equipment. If you really fight, you will be pressed to the ground~~No, no, no, no,~~~Which on the clouds, can you afford to lose this face?

The arms dealer's routine is always deeper than your pick-up girl routine. It is not only because the arms dealer needs your procurement to share his research costs, but also because you cannot make a knife to kill you. If you are determined enough to withstand the pressure, he will arm your neighboring countries with high-tech equipment, so that you can't live in pressure until you can't withstand the pressure, dream of being thrown on your head with a bomb, and start looking for a strong military to update equipment. At that time, you will cut it on your artery with a smile. Want to leave some money to develop the economy? Dream!

In short, if Yang Cheng and Mohammed's plan is to be successfully implemented, they must be prepared for a protracted war.

...

The dazzling champagne-colored Jason rose from the ground at Cairo Airport. Through the porthole, looking at the smaller and smaller earth, Yang Cheng said in his heart: I will come back again~

Flying from Egypt to London, with Jason's endurance, Yang Cheng could sleep all the way without landing halfway, but he couldn't sleep anyway. After the plane climbed to a height of 10,000 meters and began to cruise smoothly, Yang Cheng asked Shirley to turn on the satellite TV, and he needed some noise to distract himself.

Who would have thought that the news that was being intermittent caught his eye and Mohammed's man succeeded!

Yang Cheng waved his fist and thought to himself: Beautiful job!

News reports said: The "Tianxing" (fictional) cargo ship under the Formao Group was hijacked by Somali pirates. The cargo ship is 200 meters long and has a load of about 108,000 tons, and its volume is equivalent to the existence of an aircraft carrier. At this stage, there are no reports on crew situations or tanker damages.

The news also said that the robbed cargo ship is currently sailing towards and approaching the Port of Elle in northeast Somalia, which is a den of Somali pirates. The range of pirates hijacking ships is generally limited to the Gulf of Aden and the waters near Somalia. However, this time the pirates chose to commit crimes at a location south of the Gulf of Aden and successfully avoided the escort warships, and their actions were quick and accurate. This means that Somali pirates are equipped with advanced equipment and are sufficient to commit crimes from a long distance.

Experts hired by the news program believe that hijacking large freighters is not easy. Usually, there are armed guards on these large ocean-going freighters. The pirates are likely to follow the "Star" on a large ship carrying speedboats, then use speedboats to get closer, and finally use ropes to climb up the deck and carry out sneak attacks.

Hearing this, Yang Cheng laughed in his heart. Unexpectedly, he accidentally changed the tactics of pirates to commit crimes, and also praised Mohammed. He did not think that those pirates would dare to hijack 100,000-ton cargo ships without support.

At least they must be equipped with advanced communication equipment such as long-distance ships, satellite phones, global positioning systems, and they must also come up with advanced automatic weapons, rocket launchers and other weapons. However, Mohammed cannot lose money. This time, in order to fulfill Yang Cheng's request, the pirates asked for a ransom of $50 million.

Of course, this cannot be the final transaction number. After negotiation, the pirates can get 20 million and be successful. The 20 million US dollars Mohammed will have to be divided at least half of the cost. How much is the cost? Life is not included.

However, the amount of ransom I get is not within Yang Cheng’s concern. The most important thing is whether he can successfully drag the Zhao family into the mud.

After the news broadcast was finished, in order to put pressure on the Zhao family, he called the headquarters a few more times and added some fire to the public. Although he hated moral kidnapping, nothing was better than this trick at this time. The Zhao family, which has always paid attention to reputation, must be worried. Yang Cheng thought about it with a bad taste, let you make things difficult for me!

As he thought, once the news spread, it immediately set off a craze on social networking sites. In recent years, as countries have increased their efforts to escort the Gulf of Aden, few news of successful pirate hijacking has spread. Now Somali pirates have made a comeback, and the world's attention has focused on the seas of the Gulf of Aden.
