Chapter 898: One Step to the Heavens
What does it mean to reach the sky in one step?
Yesterday I was poor, but today I made a small fortune, which is called progress and luck.
Yesterday I was poor and today I made a windfall, which is at most life-changing.
But like Yang Yi, when he suddenly made a huge windfall, and hundreds of billions of dollars were placed in front of him, this was called one step to the sky.
"That's enough, the past can be explained, so his legitimate investment is finished, now let's talk about his main profession, arms, tell me about his arms channels."
Steve thought for a moment and said, "I never interfere in the arms trade, but I am responsible for the flow of funds, we operate like this, the heads of each region send back orders to Deyo, tell them what weapons they need, usually pay 30 to 50 percent of the deposit of the transaction to the designated account, and then, I will allocate funds to the procurement department, order the weapons needed for this order, and collect the remaining balance at the same time as the weapons are delivered." ”
After a short pause, Steve said in a deep voice: "The situation is very complicated now, Nicholas's arms trade is no longer carried out through Deyo, and this part is a big loss, but recently Big Ivan has almost stopped the arms business, and our share has increased, so the total revenue so far this year has reached 1.2 billion US dollars, minus the cost, minus the 10% commission to the regional head, the net profit is 800 million US dollars." ”
At present, there is a strong demand for arms in the Middle East, but many times, we need to bring up American shipments, and this part of the money is less or even not profitable, but most of our income still comes from the Middle East. ”
Yang Yi said in a deep voice: "So how many people ship for Deyo?" ”
"Well, Nicholas is basically out of control, the American market can be ignored, the arms trade in the East Asian part is very small, Colenso is in charge, this market only has a few million dollars of transactions per year, and at most it is only about 50 million, the African market is not very good now, all the products that are needed are low-end products, the trading volume is large but not much money, tens of millions at most, so the Middle East is the most important, there are two people in the Middle East who are shipping for Deyo, one is called Mugur, who is in charge of Syria, There is also a name called Barbosa, which supplies the whole of the Middle East, and Mugur has ties to the Americans, and almost all the weapons supplied to the Syrian opposition go through his hands. ”
Yang Yi frowned and said, "Something to do with the Americans?" ”
Steve nodded, "That's the point I'm going to talk about next, we're going to pay the CIA a sum of money every year, a quota, $100 million." ”
Yang Yi immediately said: "One hundred million!" ”
"Yes, 100 million, it turned out to be drawn according to the percentage, but then both the CIA and Deyo felt that it was too troublesome, so they agreed on the amount of 100 million, well, Deyo and the CIA have a very deep relationship, but the CIA can change to a new agent at any time, so ...... Recently, our form has not been very good, the CIA is very dissatisfied with the German government, of course, I am referring to the arms trade part, as for the legal investments mentioned earlier, they have nothing to do with anyone, they belong to the German government. ”
Pol listened attentively, and then he said with a puzzled expression: "What should we do if we are going to take over Deyo's arms business?" ”
Steve thought for a while and said: "It's difficult, because you first need to be recognized and supported by the United States, because a considerable part of Deyo's arms come from the United States, and then Nicholas occupies an absolute advantage in the Deyo system, and the reason why those distributors take goods from Deyo is not because they want to take them from Deyo, but Deyo occupies seventy percent of the weapons shipments of the NATO system, and after Deyo is dead, you have to have a stable arms supply channel, and you also need to make those distributors obey you, which needs to convince many people." ”
Yang Yi and Pol glanced at each other.
"In other words, if you take over the arms trade in Germany, you will have to pay $100 million a year to the CIA?"
"Yes, it must be delivered."
"So how much does Deyo make every year?"
"Unstable, very unstable, a lot of times can be close to 200 million net profits a year, last year there were so many, but this is only after the arms market has improved in the last two years, a few years ago, before the turmoil in Libya, there were basically about 200 million per year, not every year there are big deals, some years will even lose money, but in general, more than 500 million US dollars a year of net profits can be guaranteed."
There is no doubt that the arms trade is profitable, but after getting the money that you don't know how to spend, the arms trade looks like a chicken rib.
However, it has been agreed with Jethro that making arms is not only for money, so this cake of the arms trade must be eaten.
"If I want to get a channel for the arms trade in Deyo, who should I go to?"
"Of course, it's Deyo's dealer, Barbossa, he has the largest transaction volume in his hand now, you control him, basically you control the Middle East market, and the others, Mugul can't control it, because he's more like the CIA sent to spy on Deyo, so if you can get the United States, you can get Mugul, but the most important thing is the supplier, Deyo doesn't produce weapons, if you want to maintain Deyo's arms deal, you have to have a stable source of arms, and it's Jethro who is responsible for purchasing arms for Deyo, and he's missing."
"Where do you buy the arms from?"
"There are many channels, mainly the United States, so we need to pay money to the CIA every year, basically the countries of the NATO system can purchase, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, weapons producing countries are our procurement targets, the special thing about Deyo's business is that the meaning of Zhengzhi is very strong, basically these countries want to mess up a country, they will find Deyo to help them deliver weapons, Deyo makes money, they don't have to get their hands dirty."
Several people looked at each other, and then Pol smiled and said, "If we want to take over Deyo's money now, is that okay?" ”
Steve nodded: "Of course, I can start working immediately, provide me with an account number, transfer the funds under my control within twenty-four hours, go to Switzerland, and deposit five billion dollars to you, and then I will find white gloves one by one to transfer the company's shares and cash flow to your account, just like that, at least 50 billion, within a month." ”
Yang Yiqiang held back his dizziness, and then he said in a deep voice: "Can you do it now?" ”
"Now, right now, give me a call, give me a computer, and then you can wait to receive the first payment."
After finishing speaking, Steve said in a deep voice: "I know you should be worried about whether I will play tricks at this time, but I am in your hands, and you have financial experts, under his supervision of the whole process, you should be able to rule out the possibility of me playing tricks, and my question is, how can you guarantee that you will give me ten percent of the money?" That's at least billions of dollars, and I don't believe you're going to give it to me when you hear that number, so how do you make me believe you? ”
