"The No. 1 chief is also more concerned about this matter, and has a clear instruction to do his best to win this deal, but our country's defense funds are not as abundant as the Americans, and now there is an extra hole of billions of dollars, and we can only reduce the funds of other departments, so the less money is spent, the better, so that other departments can also take a breath." The chief said.

The chief's words are very true, but they are full of exclamation.

According to last year, that is, in 2018, China has ranked second in the world, China's military budget is 188 billion US dollars, but compared with the United States, the gap is still too big, the United States' annual military budget is 658 billion US dollars, 3.5 times China's military spending.

In order to defend its national security and national dignity, China is bound to vigorously develop its military, and its annual military budget is increasing by about 10 percent per year.

However, there are too many places where China needs to be armed and upgraded, and the gap with the United States is still obvious, so every penny cannot be spent indiscriminately, it must be carefully and thoroughly studied before spending, and the Chinese are not unjust people who have money and no place to spend.

"Chief, I will definitely talk to Muyang and win this deal at the lowest cost." Li Wei said.

Li Wei walked out of the communication room, the military attache of the Chilean Embassy told him that his mobile phone rang, Li Wei picked it up and saw that it was an assistant calling, he called, and learned that Muyang had arrived at the hotel, Li Wei hurriedly drove back to the hotel.

"I'm sorry I couldn't pick you up at the airport. I'm sorry that there was a temporary situation over there that I had to deal with myself. Li Wei came up to shake hands with Muyang and greeted him. A look of apology on his face.

"It's okay Mr. Li, we are all businessmen, and we are still business-oriented." Mu Yang said with a smile.

"You're also a big business here, or am I slacking off, it just so happens that it's noon now, let's eat first." After eating, I was talking about business, by the way, are you still used to eating Chilean food? Li Wei asked enthusiastically.

Muyang spread his hands: "I haven't eaten it." ”

"Then try it. After all, when you come to Chile, you have to feel the customs here, and the seafood here is still good. Li Wei said.

Chilean seafood is abundant, assistant driving. The trio came to what is said to be the best restaurant in San Diego. The owner, a former Michelin-starred chef in France and a Chilean, returned to Santiago to open his own fine dining restaurant dedicated to promoting Chile's gastronomic culture.

These are all things that Li Wei told Muyang, Li Wei said: "I also sell it now, and the Chilean Ministry of Defense invited me to eat here, and they have the taste here." Pursuing a lighter one, I feel that the taste is not bad. ”

"I love to travel. I also like to learn about the culture and cuisine of countries around the world, and today is the perfect time to taste the wonders of Chilean cuisine. Muyang said.

The assistant didn't eat with them, the two of them sat next to each other, chatting and waiting for the dishes to be served, of course, they won't talk about weapons here, after all, there are many people, and there are no security measures, if they are really targeted by someone with a heart, and then use means to listen to their conversation, it is not good, the two of them still have a sense of prevention.

If you don't have weapons, let's talk about culture, since you are here, in the restaurant, let's talk about food, just listen to Li Wei say: "Chile has the world-renowned "three treasures", salmon, red wine, red grapes. ”

"Chile is the world's leading exporter of grapes, the number one exporter of grapes, and the second largest exporter of kiwifruit and avocados; In the southern hemisphere, Chile is also a major exporter of apples, plums, peaches, nectarines and berries. Chile is also blessed with a wealth of fish, molluscs, crustaceans and algae, including salmon, oysters and scallops. ”

"We have all these dishes in the order, and you will have to try them in a while. Fresh seafood, vegetables and fruits from Chile, with a unique variety of spices and seasonings, combined with the elegant wines of Chilean wineries, combined with the passion and creativity of Chileans, will not only make your taste buds dance in Latin, but also delight your senses of sight, smell and taste. ”

Hearing this, Mu Yang smiled, "Brother Li, are you going to endorse Chilean food?" ”

Li Wei also laughed, "This is the last time Chef Bilal was here. What Rodriguez said when he introduced, I said it, am I selling it now, if I really want to say it, it is still delicious, but if I really say five words, then there is no need to talk about it, how boring it is for the two of us to sit dry. ”

Li Wei's personality is really cheerful, but Mu Yang prefers to believe that he is a resolute, serious, and extremely smart person, because he can remember the other party's words after listening to the chef say it once, which shows that Li Wei's memory is really powerful.

Meals are served, spicy fish fillet with chili powder and orange sauce, pan-seared rainbow trout with salmon roe, honey potatoes, pork chops in Adobo sauce, potatoes in spicy olive oil, caramelized onion puree with crispy bacon, steamed abalone in yellow sauce......

Okay, the two of them are quite extravagant, they asked for a whole large table of dishes, Muyang ate the dishes, and felt that it was indeed as Li Wei said, the taste was slightly light, but it was absolutely fresh, and the unique taste of the ingredients would make you have a more unique enjoyment, just like that abalone, which was simply steamed, and then served with a kind of intellectual specialty yellow sauce, which simply bombarded your taste buds and made Muyang addicted.

The guests and hosts were happy, the two returned to the hotel, and now it was time to get into the theme, the assistant made a pot of tea for the two, and then withdrew.

"Brother, I heard you mention the F119 and F135 engines on the phone, and the first thing that came to mind was the loss of the Pratt & Whitney factory in Canada, I don't know if there is a connection between the two things." Li Wei took the teapot and poured water into the cups of the two, and said in a casual tone.

Muyang put his hand next to the teacup to show respect, and replied casually: "We did it." ”

Li Wei's hand pouring water paused, and then continued to pour it again.

Li Wei really didn't expect that Mu Yang would admit it so directly, and his tone was so casual, it seems that the other party is also the kind of person who has no fear, and it seems that the effect of using the United States to intimidate the other party will be much smaller than he imagined.

Before the two came into contact, Li Wei formulated a set of meeting plans by himself, first, to use the Americans to investigate the matter, let the other party know that the batch of goods was not easy to sell, so that the other party had the idea of eagerly selling, and then took the opportunity to lower the price.

Second...... (To be continued.) )
