Chapter 245: Begonia Spring Sleep (First Update)
PS: I returned to Xiamen at eight o'clock in the morning, so ...... In order to make up for the previous update, today eight more will be sent.
During the double monthly pass period, can I get some monthly passes?
――――
Cai Ruichen somewhat understands the concerns of the Iraqi government army, which is nothing more than the fear that the future technology group will extort another fee in terms of parts and maintenance, just like the United States.
Such a practice is very normal in arms sales by various countries, and it is almost always a means of the practice of military sales by major countries.
Arms sales are never a one-shot deal, and small countries buy weapons and equipment, unless they are bought together with the arms production line.
Otherwise, the maintenance of weapons will all be in the hands of the selling country, and if the weapons and equipment purchased by the small country are damaged or damaged in battle, they will have to be maintained and replaced with parts.
Just like the life of a tank's tracks, the average track life of a main battle tank is 500 km.
The number of motorcycle hours for a tank engine is between 300 and 500 hours, and beyond these figures, the equipment is very prone to problems.
Therefore, it is necessary to maintain or replace parts, of course, generally not to replace all of them, but to replace those key parts that are prone to problems.
These parts are often in the hands of the exporting country, and the buying country has no production line and no supporting industry to produce, so it can only continue to buy from the selling country in the future.
This requires a lot of money, as many people are saying that it is difficult to buy a car and maintain it.
The care and maintenance of weapons and equipment, the cost of money over the years, can often be used to buy new and identical equipment.
However, without maintaining the combat effectiveness of weapons, it is impossible to guarantee it, which is one of the reasons why, with the development of modern weapons and equipment, the military scale of various countries is becoming more and more streamlined.
The Iraqi government forces do have the money to buy the Warrior assault vehicles, and they also have a need for this.
But they are also worried. The cost of maintenance and upkeep of these Warrior assault vehicles in the future.
250,000 US dollars, this price is not expensive at all compared to the large number of armed Humvees sold in the United States.
On the contrary, because of the stealth performance and on-board system of the Warrior assault vehicle, the cost performance is much higher than that of the armed Humvee.
The Iraqi Government is also very impressed, but they also know that advanced weapons and equipment are being maintained. Naturally, the cost is even more expensive.
This is not to say that the more advanced the weapons and equipment, the more expensive the maintenance costs, and there is no such absolute statement.
However, advanced technology is not in their own hands, everything should be dependent on each other, and it is natural to pay a larger fee, which is an absolute fact.
And often this kind of advanced and easy-to-use things, the more expensive all aspects will be.
For example, if India buys 10 Globemaster transport planes from the United States, the price of its own equipment is $100 million, and the price of selling it to allies or friendly countries is between $100 million and $200 million.
But the price of selling to India is more than $500 million per plane. India, on the other hand, did not even hesitate, so it directly bought the 10 crosses, and heard that there was still an intention to continue to buy them.
Therefore, this is the price profit generated by technological superiority, and it is also a benefit that neither the big powers nor the militarily technologically advanced countries will let go.
Iraq is worried that the future technology group will remain normal in terms of selling prices, but on the issue of after-sales, under the pretext of the advanced Warrior assault vehicle, the lion opened his mouth.
So at the time of proposing to buy. He expressed the hope that the people of Future Technology Group could help the Iraqi government train skilled logistics personnel. This allows them to maintain the Warrior Assault Vehicle on their own.
"Tell the Iraqi government that the price of after-sales maintenance can be negotiated, but other conditions are impossible for us to accept." Cai Ruichen didn't think too much about it, and directly refused.
Cultivating Iraqi military personnel is not a big deal, but how can he have such spare personnel and energy to do such a thing now?
Presently. All the personnel in the base are a carrot and a pit, and each engineer has his own position and job.
To repair the port of Basra, it is planned to fill in hundreds of engineers and hundreds of main battle tanks captured from the wasteland. Engineers are also needed to modify and repair it.
I have never heard of any construction work in the world, and the number of engineers is definitely not enough.
So, it's impossible for him to send engineers to teach Iraqi government forces, and fundamentally, it's not in the interests of the Future Tech Group.
"I see." With clear instructions, Zhao Long also understood how to reply to the Iraqi government.
Although the amount of this arms sale is not small, the Iraqi government, which intends to buy 100 Warrior assault vehicles, can also bring 10 or 20 million profits to the Future Technology Group.
But there are some principled things that also need to be maintained.
After the formal topic is discussed, the next topic becomes relaxed.
The reason why Cai Ruichen brought these people together was so that Idris and Lin Chongxian could integrate into the collective.
After all, they are non-red police officers, although they usually can't see it, but they actually have some estrangement from these heroes.
The two sides can't really get along, so Cai Ruichen also hopes that their relationship can be as close as possible.
Even if you can't do it as tacit as every Red Police soldier, you can at least become close friends.
When the wine bottles began to be placed on the table, the topic became even more open, and under the leadership of Cai Ruichen, except for Clark and Ralph, who were not drunk, everyone else also began to toast each other frequently.
Among them, Chao Leizhen found Lin Chongxian, and after a few glasses of wine, the two began to chat very devotedly.
After all, in the next work, the two still need to cooperate with each other, and both intend to promote each other's relationship.
Zhao Long found Idris, the two still have a long way to go, and half a month later, even if they want to go to the battlefield together, it is very necessary to promote the relationship.
Cai Ruichen, who opened the situation, smiled slightly when he saw this, and drank with Natasha.
This superhero also did not refuse to come, and drank very happily with Cai Ruichen.
Even in the end, Cai Ruichen didn't know how he got back to his room.
In the past few months, he has also lost his temper for the first time, and he doesn't know if it is the pressure of his heart or the pride brought by his extraordinary identity, in short, it is rare to let go once.
Compared with the bonfire party at the No. 1 barracks, Cai Ruichen drank more this time.
At half past five the next morning, under the biological clock, Cai Ruichen came to his senses.
His head was still a little dizzy, but as soon as he woke up, he felt a soft and hot delicate body on his body, like an octopus.
Cai Ruichen, who encountered this situation for the first time, was a little dazed, looking at Natasha with her head pillowed on her chest and sleeping in the spring of Begonia.
The impulse that belongs to a man is difficult to suppress. (To be continued.) )
