Washington, D.C., January 20......

At 1:30 a.m., President-elect Frederick and Vice President-elect Howard took the oath of office on the terrace of the Capitol before attending a banquet in Congress. In the afternoon, Frederick and First Lady Tim walked along Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House to hold a handover ceremony with outgoing President Roddick.

When he received the presidential badge, which symbolized the highest power in the United States, Frederick gave Roddick the greatest benefit.

On the same day, Frederick, in his capacity as president, signed the first document: Roddick's criminal pardon.

Although the major media in the United States highly praised Frederick's pardon of former President Roddick, claiming that it was a symbol of "reconciliation" between the two parties and the beginning of the unity of the American people to face the financial crisis, everyone knows that Frederick's pardon of Roddick is an out-and-out political deal.

In exchange, Roddick did not withdraw troops deployed in the Gulf region.

In the evening, Frederick summoned Admiral Sullivan, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the three services, Admiral Skefield, commander of the Central Theater, Admiral Sampras, commander of the Pacific Theater, Vice Admiral Jackson, commander of the Second Fleet, Vice Admiral Agassi, commander of the Seventh Fleet, as well as newly appointed Secretary of State Leslie, Secretary of Defense Berkeley, National Security Adviser Stockton, and CIA Director Tredui, who had not yet officially taken office, to discuss military action against Iran.

At this time, the republic had entered the 211th.

At 9:30 a.m. Beijing time, "China Heavy Equipment Import and Export Co., Ltd." was established in Beijing.

In the information released to the public, this registered foreign trade company is mainly engaged in the export trade of military and civilian heavy equipment, and the company's legal representative is + Muhua.

The inauguration ceremony of the company was brief. There was no hype about it.

In the afternoon of the same day. + Yanbo departs for Fujian. Went to deal with the related affairs of "Sanjian Group" and "Huasheng Group".

Let + Muhua serve as the chairman of the "Zhongzhong Company". + Yan Bo has been fighting for a long time.

At the beginning of the month, Ji Youguo proposed that + Yanbo, Li Chengwen, Ye Yongji and others invest in the establishment of an arms trading company. + Yan Bo agreed without even thinking about it. Later, he also persuaded Li Chengwen and Ye Yongji. At last. Long Yuteng and Shutao also agreed to contribute. Only You Mingjun did not join the house.

5 out of 5 people. + Yanbo invested all the funds earned from the Japanese and domestic financial markets, a total of 1200, Li Chengwen also invested 1200, and Ye Yonggi invested 1c0 billion. Longyu Teng invested 80c Shutao invested 600 yuan in total!

Because most of this money is "illegally gained". Therefore, + Yanbo and others can't spend it elsewhere.

When it came time to determine who would manage the operation, + Hikohiro and others were in a dilemma. Because there are too many things to do in Japan, + Hikohiro and others have always been highly "concerned" by Western countries, and they all have their own business and cannot be distracted from the arms trade, so they decided to choose a suitable junior to run the arms business. Ye Yongjidi's children are still young, Li Chengwen's children are either mixed in gangs or working hard in the political arena, Long Yuteng's children have not returned to China, and Gong Shutao's only son has to prepare to take over. Choose to choose, only the place that has long wanted to break away from the family and develop separately + Muhua is more suitable.

If it weren't for Pan Yunsheng guaranteeing the safety of + Muhua, + Yanbo would never let his daughter do this business.

In order to make up his mind to +Yanbo, Pan Yunsheng also found Kang Xiaoting, who had just retired, and forced him to sign an employment contract to serve as +Muhua's personal bodyguard.

+ Yanbo doesn't believe in other people, but he has a blue eye for Kang Xiaoting, who once saved + Muhua.

After solving the personal problem, the details of the company were discussed by + Muhua and Ji Youguo sent Wang Yuanqing to negotiate.

According to Ji Youguo's meaning, the "Zhongzhong Heavy Company" is mainly engaged in arms export trade.

Premier Pang Xinglong personally stepped forward to ask 32 state-owned arms production enterprises to sign cooperation agreements with the "China Heavy Duty Company."

The agreement provides for two types of arms sales.

First, the "medium and heavy company" will advance 50 percent of the purchase price to the arms production enterprises in advance to share the risk of arms sales. After receiving the payment from the customer, "Zhongzhong Company" will extract 5% to 15% of the total sales as marketing and promotion expenses in accordance with the specific provisions of the contract.

Second, the "medium and heavy company" will sell the goods on behalf of the company, and will not advance the purchase money to the arms production enterprises, and in accordance with the specific provisions of the contract, extract the total sales amount as marketing and promotion expenses.

Both ways of cooperation can ensure that both parties can obtain considerable benefits.

As far as the major arms production enterprises of the Republic are concerned, the consignment distribution by the "medium and heavy companies" has solved the marketing problems of the major enterprises, avoided vicious competition among the enterprises, and not only enabled the "China brand" weapons and equipment to be sold at a better price in the international market, but also enabled the arms production enterprises to ensure their income during droughts and floods, thus reducing the additional expenditures incurred in the marketing process.

As far as the "medium and heavy company" is concerned, without considering production, it has achieved the goal of monopolizing the arms export trade, laid the foundation for the promotion of "Chinese brand" weapons and equipment, and also laid the foundation for the future supply of arms

The foundation for a foray into the field of arms production was laid.

Although Ji Youguo's original idea was to use private capital to solve the problems encountered by the state, share risks for the country, and promote the weapons and equipment produced by the Republic in the international market, everyone knows that Ji Youguo's main purpose is to integrate domestic arms enterprises and promote the restructuring of state-owned enterprises.

The arms industry is very different from other manufacturing industries.

If nothing else, the cost of developing certain advanced weapons and equipment is as high as billions or even tens of billions, but the final output is pitiful. For example, when the United States was developing the F-22 fighter, it invested more than $30 billion in research and development funds, but the output was less than 200 yuan. Although many research results will be used in other weapons and equipment, or promoted in the civilian field, the high cost of development can discourage any country. When the F-35 was being studied, the United States invited other countries to participate in the development of the F-35 in the name of "joint development" and shared the development costs.

Expanding exports has become the best way to share the cost of research and development.

Still taking the United States as an example, the price of the F-16 fighter jet purchased by the US military is only 50% of the export price. Through large-scale exports, we can not only reduce manufacturing costs and share research and development costs in the form of mass production, but also earn high profits from them and stimulate the enthusiasm of arms enterprises in developing new technologies.

In addition, the integration of arms enterprises is also an effective means of reducing costs.

At the end of World War II, there were hundreds of arms manufacturers in the United States, and there were more than a dozen enterprises that manufactured military aircraft alone, including Boeing, Grumman, Douglas, Republic, etc. After decades of development, the number of arms manufacturers in the United States has been reduced to more than a dozen, and only four companies that produce military aircraft are Boeing, Loma, Northrop and General Electric. The larger the enterprise, the more abundant the capital, the more the cost of R&D, the stronger the ability to develop new equipment, and the higher the competitiveness.

In order for the republic to become a major arms producer and exporter, it must integrate the scattered arms manufacturing enterprises in the country as soon as possible.

Leaving it up to the state is not only inefficient, but also contradicts the forthcoming Law on the Norms of Government Conduct.

Under such circumstances, the only way to do this is to be done by private enterprises, and gradually integrate various arms manufacturers through alliances, acquisitions, annexations, etc., and eventually form one or several super-arms manufacturers.

Of course, reform must be carried out step by step, and the field of arms is no exception.

Ji Youguo let + Yanbo and others invest in the establishment of a "medium and heavy company", which is only the first step in the reform of arms enterprises.

After learning about Ji Youguo's thoughts, + Hikohiro no longer worries about anything.

According to the cooperation agreement signed between the "Zhongzhong Company" and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, the 32 state-owned arms production enterprises participating in the cooperation each have 1% of the equity in the "Zhongzhong Company", the SASAC owns 17% of the equity in the name of technology shares, and the other 51% of the equity, + Yanbo and Li Chengwen each account for 125%, Ye Yongji accounts for 05%, Long Yuteng accounts for 85%, Gong Shutao accounts for 6%, and the remaining 1% belongs to + Muhua.

Initially, Li Chengwen and Ye Yongji did not agree with the state-private joint venture.

In their view, the direct consequence of the state's shareholding is the dispersion of equity, which is very detrimental to the company's operation.

During the negotiations with the government, Li Chengwen and Ye Yongji presented their ideas. After consultations, it was finally clearly stipulated in the cooperation agreement that the SASAC and the state-owned arms production enterprises only have the "right to distribute dividends" and have no decision-making power. Except for the technical confidentiality work of the national security department, other matters are fully decided by the board of directors represented by + Muhua.

The agreement was signed, and the rest was much easier.

Within 5 days, the approval of the "medium and heavy company" was completed, and the board of directors was also announced. Although + Muhua only has a 1% symbolic equity, in the case that the other six people have no intention of interfering with the company, + Muhua is given full authority to decide the company's business affairs, and + Muhua serves as the chairman.

In addition to day-to-day operations, another key aspect of the company's work is technical confidentiality. The arms trade is closely related to state secrecy work, especially various advanced military technologies. Regardless of the country, the arms company has signed a confidentiality agreement with the government.

What weapons can be sold and to which country they can be sold is not decided by the company, but by the government and other state power agencies!

Therefore, in the "medium and heavy companies", the Military Intelligence Agency played an extremely important role.

According to Ji Youguo's instructions, Pan Yunsheng sent two of the most "reliable" people to the "Zhongzhong Company" to be responsible for marketing and technical confidentiality. Not only the most "reliable", but also the most "mysterious" of the two subordinates. After all, the MIA cannot blatantly engage in arms trading.

+ As soon as Yanbo's private plane took off from the airport, Li Cunxun and Liu Xiaobin came to the headquarters of "Zhongzhong Company".

This is not an easy job for two "professional spies".

The first problem that the two need to solve is: obey the command of the female boss!

Damn it**

Monthly pass, monthly pass! (To be continued)
