Chapter 143: The Office of the Ministry of Security
Doyle didn't understand who some of the people Xiao Yang was talking about, but seeing that Xiao Yang didn't look like he wanted to explain, he didn't ask any more.
But just a few days later, he understood.
The composition of Fenmecanica's shares is not complicated, with 40 percent state-owned and 60 percent private, of which Doyle has the largest number of private shareholders, reaching 28 percent, making it the largest shareholder outside the state.
Because the state does not interfere much in the day-to-day operation of the group, many people have selectively ignored the state-owned representatives, and just a few days after Xiao Yang and Doyle's conversation, that is, the day after the official results of the risk assessment, the representatives of the state-owned shareholders formally proposed that the technology could be sold.
At this moment, Doyle finally understood what Xiao Yang's words that day meant.
I understand why he said that.
Whether it is the shares owned by the shareholders, or the identity of the shareholders, this has created the group no matter what major decisions, must be affirmed by the state, as the largest private shareholder, some things he himself does not count, must be affirmed by the state-owned shareholders, in this technology transfer, with the opening of the state-owned shareholders, other private shareholders basically have nothing to oppose.
No wonder the previous news about IS was so vague, it turned out to be waiting for such a release.
Doyle wanted to understand the truth and had to admire Xiao Yang's resourcefulness.
If their government wants to know the follow-up news from Xiao Yang's mouth, then it will have to express it, and obviously their expression is on technology transfer.
"You're so smart."
Faced with Doyle's words of praise or sarcasm, Xiao Yang explained with a smile, "The news I get now is indeed only what I told you, and the rest will take time." ”
Doyle nodded, then shook his head again, "I didn't doubt what you meant, and even if you hide something, you should." ”
Seeing him say this, Xiao Yang knew that he really didn't think much about it, so he didn't explain more.
"And what about the outcome of your meeting today?"
"Today is just a briefing, and there is no vote, but you can rest assured that with me and them, they have occupied nearly 10% of the group's shares, and you can prepare now."
"Okay." Since they all said so, it means that this matter is almost settled, but Xiao Yang is not particularly happy, because he thinks that the IS line will not be so easy to dig down.
I didn't want to go too deep, but I didn't expect the final result to be because of this incident.
Now that the Italian government has shown sincerity, he can't stop there.
When Doyle left, Xiao Yang called Zhao Qingfeng.
"It's almost done, your people can set off, to Kutos, it's not appropriate here."
Zhao Qingfeng felt very sensitively that Xiao Yang's tone was not so happy, and he thought that something had happened, and the joy in his heart because of the matter instantly dissipated, "What?" Is something wrong? ”
"Nothing." Realizing that his tone affected Zhao Qingfeng, Xiao Yang immediately raised his voice and explained, "It's unlucky enough to say, this time I came here and received the news that IS was going to attack Italy, and I was a little depressed." ”
"Haha......"
Zhao Qingfeng's mood instantly improved, and he laughed, "It's really interesting, you can encounter this kind of thing as soon as you pass, but how are you going to deal with it?" ”
Xiao Yang didn't have the idea of inviting credit, so he didn't say that this matter involved technology transfer, "What else can I do to help them continue to investigate." ”
"Hey, you're not such a good talker." Zhao Qingfeng immediately realized the abnormality, "Ah...... I see, it's about the engine, right? ”
I didn't expect him to think about it so quickly, and Xiao Yang didn't deny it.
"In this case, we won't interfere in this matter, but all the funds will still be paid by us, so you will work harder." Seeing that he acquiesced, Zhao Qingfeng quickly thought of a solution, "It's not that you care about this money, but business is business, there's no need to let you out." ”
The source of the news is Mi Qilin's organization, not Mi Qilin's personal, and it should be paid a little, Xiao Yang heard him say this, so he didn't refuse, "Okay, I'll ask when the time comes, and I'll give you a specific amount." ”
Two days later, the Finmecanica Group officially replied to Xiao Yang and agreed to sell the technology, and Xiao Yang took the opportunity to propose that the transaction place was chosen in Kutos, Somalia.
Others were not familiar with Kutos, but Doyle and the Italian government knew that Kutos was equivalent to Xiao Yang's private kingdom, and there was no problem with security, so they agreed on the spot.
It happened, and Xiao Yang went to the Italian Ministry of Security for the first time as a consultant.
"Hello Mr. Xiao, I'm your assistant Martin." He contacted the person on a business card left for him by the Ministry of Security a few months ago, and the person quickly came to pick him up at the bottom of the Ministry of Security building.
Martin is very young, should be about the same age as Xiao Yang, each is very tall, looks very energetic, dressed in a suit, typical civil servant dress, "Hello." Xiao Yang shook his hand.
The Italian government arranged for him as an adviser to a full-time three-man team to deal with all kinds of matters in Italy, but he had never been here before, and this was the first time he had seen his assistant.
In the Ministry of Security, a special office was prepared for him, and under the leadership of Martin, Xiao Yang soon came to a department marked "Security Consultant Department", and after walking in, he saw the other two people in the three-person team, a man and a woman, the man looked professionally trained, and the woman looked weak, she should be a simple civilian employee.
Sure enough, Martin's introduction confirmed his conjecture.
"This is Alfonso, your driver and bodyguard, who is also in charge of the contact between you and the military; This is Angelo, if you have any documents that need to be processed, you can give them to her. ”
"Hmm." Smiling and shaking hands with the two, Xiao Yang followed Martin into his office.
The office has dozens of square meters, such an area is not small in the Ministry of Security, and the decoration is not ordinary, Xiao Yang doesn't know how other people's offices are, but his office is already a bit luxurious in his eyes.
If nothing else, just the sofa is estimated to cost tens of thousands of euros, not to mention the solid wood desk and bookcase.
Sitting down on the chair behind the desk, Martin had already brought a cup of coffee, Xiao Yang took it, let him sit down, pointed his finger around the room, and asked him, "Is this what other people's offices look like?" ”
Martin and the three of them came to this department a few months ago, but during this period they have not seen their so-called boss, which makes them curious and inevitably a little apprehensive, and they can't figure out the personality of this foreign boss.
"No, because of your special status, the decoration plan given by the ministry is a little higher."
"Oh."
……
After chatting for a while, Xiao Yang basically figured out some of the responsibilities of their department, and of course he also heard about some things in the security department, and seeing that Martin was not impatient at all, he had a good impression of this person who was about his age.
"Okay, you can make an appointment with Secretary Daines for me." Having figured out that his advisor was under the direct authority of the minister, he said to Martin.
"Okay, wait a minute." Martin should immediately get out of the door.
Watching him leave to go outside to make a phone call, Xiao Yang felt for the first time that the Italians were not slowing down, and the number of times he came to Italy was not less, whether it was business or life, he could always deeply experience the feeling of being a beat slower here than other countries, and until now, he is still a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that his subordinates didn't seem to be like this finally made him feel better.
Martin's movements were indeed not slow, and in just a minute, he came in: "Mr. Xiao, the minister said that he has time now." ”
I thought that I would make an appointment, but I didn't expect to agree to meet immediately, Xiao Yang immediately stood up and walked outside, "Go, take me over." ”
Perhaps for his convenience, Secretary Daines's office was upstairs from him, and he was only a few steps up the stairs before he even had to take the elevator.
At the time of the nuclear bomb incident, Xiao Yang had already seen Daines, perhaps because of his special status, Daines didn't treat him as a subordinate at all, and as soon as he entered, he got up from his chair and greeted him.
"Mr. Xiao, I've finally met you here." He smiled and stretched out his hand to Xiao Yang.
If it weren't for the smile on his face, Xiao Yang would definitely think that he was sarcastic, but thinking that people were so enthusiastic and deliberately got a few subordinates, and there was a department, but he had never been here, he was still a little embarrassed, and smiled awkwardly, "Mr. Minister, you should know that I am really busy." ”
Daines invited Xiao Yang to sit down, and said with a smile, "Yes, so no one has ever asked you to check in." ”
"Hehe......" I really didn't realize that this Daines was quite humorous before, Xiao Yang laughed.
After a few idle words, Xiao Yang talked about his intentions, and Daines also knew what he was doing here, and when it came to IS, he didn't have any surprised expression.
“…… That's all I know about the news right now, but I personally think it's best to get in touch with the CIA or the CIA to see if there's any news. ”
Daines frowned, was silent for a moment, and then raised his head and said, "Xiao, I think you should know that even if they are NATO countries, they will not provide intelligence to each other for free." ”
Xiao Yang knew about this situation, but he didn't expect that this "gratuitous" could make Daines, the minister, frown, and it seems that the price is not small.
He sneered in his heart, allies and everything are bullshit, only interests are the most fundamental.
It's no wonder that after seeing his intelligence capabilities, he was able to make the move of hiring an Oriental as a security consultant.
