Chapter 509 Invasion of the Allied Base
The older of the two white men is Mr. Tom.
He is the manager of the Asian office of the Raytheon Arms Company of Country M.
When I heard that Lin Zhennan wanted to buy a regular division's equipment, I couldn't help but feel very happy.
You must know that a regular division has about 10,000 people, and its large and small equipment costs a lot of money, which can be regarded as a big order.
The key to this kind of business is that there is follow-up, after-sales service, not just weapons.
Regardless of whether you have a gun or a cannon, you will always need to replenish the bullets and shells after shooting, and you will always need to repair them. These are a steady stream of money.
Mr. Tom stood up, shook hands with Lin Zhennan, hugged and said some words that even Lin Zhennan could not understand.
Translated by Xie Guangkun to Lin Zhengnan.
What Mr. Tom roughly means is to welcome Lin Zhennan to use their Raytheon Company's arms. The quality of their company's military products is very high, and they are all data obtained through countless battlefield experiences.
Lin Zhennan did not feel that this foreigner was deceiving him, because country M is a country that provokes wars everywhere just to sell arms and occupy resources.
A typical warmonger.
Tom, the two arms dealers, were of course very clear about the weapons configuration required for the army's establishment. Soon they were allocating upper, middle and lower third-class equipment for Lin Zhennan to choose from.
Lin Zhengnan took the list of three recipes handed over by Tom.
He didn't understand the origin of these weapons.
But you can clearly see the price.
Formula 1, $1 billion.
The second formula, US$500 million.
The third formula is also the lowest formula, US$150 million.
Since Lin Zhengnan was going to give it to his father-in-law, of course he chose the best equipment. He threw out the two cheapest lists, and then insisted on attracting US dollars from the list and said to Tom: "I will use this equipment, but I am the one who decides to place the order."
Father-in-law, because I really don’t understand these things.”
Tom was very happy when he saw that Lin Zhennan was using the highest configuration order.
Lin Zhennan took out his phone and called General Wu Min.
Seeing that it was Lin Zhennan's call, General Wu Min quickly answered the call.
"Brother Lin, how are you doing in Mandalay? What's the matter with calling me so late?"
Lin Zhennan couldn't help coughing when he heard what General Wu Min said to Brother Lin on the left and Brother Lin on the right: Your mother gave me your daughter, and I slept with her, and you came over with your brother, brother, are you trying to break up?
My birthday?
General Wu Min heard Lin Zhennan's cough and quickly asked with concern: "Brother Lin, do you have a cold?"
Lin Zhennan did not answer his words and said quickly: "General Wu Min, I met a friend in Mandalay and introduced me to an arms dealer from Country M. I am going to buy you a set of equipment for a regular division as a gift, but I am
The quality of these equipment is not very clear, so you need to come to Mandalay so that you can connect with foreign arms dealers."
General Wu Min answered the phone over there, with a confused look on his face: Buying a regular division's equipment as a gift to him? What does Brother Lin want to do? Besides, although he said he was a division, in reality it was only one or two at most.
Do a group of people need so many weapons?
No, no, the equipment of this division must not exceed 1 billion US dollars. How much money does Brother Lin have? But why did he give it to me?
Could it be that he and his daughter are getting along, oh, now he is rich.
So he hurriedly said to the phone: "Oh, Brother Lin, Chief of Staff Lin, I will take the car to Mandalay right away!"
After speaking, General Wu Min put down his cell phone, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, my precious daughter, you have found a good son-in-law for me. How much money does this son-in-law have?"
It’s like a division’s equipment. Do I, Wu Min, really have the destiny to be the emperor?”
General Wu Min indulged in adultery there.
Well, it seems that Brother Lin can no longer be called that. In the future, he should remember that he should be called Chief of Staff Lin.
Lin Zhennan put down his cell phone and said to Xie Guangkun.
"Master Xie, tell Mr. Tom that my father-in-law won't be able to come over until tomorrow to sign a contract with him."
Xie Guangkun told Mr. Tom again, and Mr. Tom nodded quickly and said it was no problem.
At this time, the time came to 8:30 and the auction officially began.
This is a beautiful auctioneer in her 20s walking up to the auction stage.
I saw her gently picking up the phone:
"Dear guests, gentlemen, ladies, hello, I am the auctioneer and I am Aulis. I have been invited by True Love Jewelry Company to host this auction tonight."
Then he bowed to Dajin's guest, and then said: "What I want to take pictures tonight are two pieces of glass Imperial Road jade. The owner of these two pieces of jade is Mr. Lin Zhennan!"
"These two pieces of glass jade, one weighs 110 kilograms and the other weighs 105 kilograms."
"Speaking of the origin of these two pieces of imperial green glass, it is quite legendary. It is said that our Mr. Lin found this piece of jade in an antique shop, and the owner used this huge piece of jadeite as a tea table.
Legend has it that this piece of jadeite has been in his family for hundreds of years, but no one has discovered that this piece of jadeite is a national treasure-grade glass-type imperial green jadeite. If Mr. Lin hadn't had a keen eye for treasures, then this jadeite might not have been known to exist.
How long does it take to make a tea table in this shop?"
Antiques are built on telling stories. This routine is to tell stories. The more legendary your items are, the higher they will sell.
It seems that the jewelry and jade world has also inherited this routine from the antique world and told stories. But she didn't lie. Indeed, Lin Zhennan bought a tea table for drinking tea.
Auctioneer Aulis finished telling the legendary story of jade, and then the auction officially started.
First, take a picture of the smaller piece of jadeite imperial green glass jade, which is the 105kg piece.
"The starting price for the 105-pound glass imperial green jadeite is 1 billion euros. The price increase must not be less than 10 million euros."
Lin Zhennan doesn’t know why Myanmar likes to use the euro.
The auctioneer finished calling the starting bid.
Someone immediately held up a sign: One billion and fifty million euros.
Someone will soon increase the amount to 1.1 billion euros.
Then someone else added the amount to 1.2 billion euros.
Then there is.
1.3 billion euros.
1.4 billion euros.
1.5 billion euros.
1.8 billion euros.
At this time, a domineering voice came out.
"Our Hong Kong Chow Jewelry Group bids 3 billion euros."
Everyone turned around and saw a fat man in his fifties or sixties, holding a sign with an arrogant look on his face.
Everyone said to themselves, "You don't have martial ethics. Everyone is adding 100 million, but you suddenly added more than 1 billion."
Seeing that no one present responded to the price, the man who owned Zhou's jewelry was even more proud.
This was a calm voice shouting: "On behalf of Mr. Li from Hong Kong, I bid 5 billion euros. Mr. Li wants to buy a piece of imperial green and go back to carve a large clay statue of Guanyin as an offering. But for many years, he has not met anyone."
It is a good piece of imperial green glass jadeite, and it is large. Today he heard that this large jadeite glass type is suitable for carving masters??, and wants to invite him back. I hope everyone will fulfill our sincerity, Mr. Li."
Everyone saw that this person was the assistant of Mr. Li, the richest man in Hong Kong.
No one raised any more placards. Firstly, the price exceeded everyone's budget, and everyone wanted to save face with Mr. Li.
Lin Zhennan is also very happy. In his mind, this piece of glass is worth 3 billion euros.
It seems that he still underestimated the status of glass jade in the hearts of Chinese people.
Next, Mr. Li’s assistant from Hong Kong immediately handed over the money.
I just packed up the 105 kilogram piece of glass and planted it with jadeite and imperial green. There was no sloppiness at all.
Queen's Hotel, there is a helicopter parked in the square outside the gate.
Mr. Li's assistant from Hong Kong took Jade onto the helicopter and left directly.
Lin Zhennan watched the scene of Mr. Li's assistant leaving that was broadcast on the big screen in the private room. He couldn't help but be speechless: No wonder he was preparing to auction glass jadeite just yesterday. They are here today. It turns out they came by helicopter. Rich people are awesome.
.
Next, the 110 kilogram jadeite will be auctioned.
The price of the above piece of jade is there to support it. The following piece has a few more kilograms, so it will definitely not be lower than the price of the above piece. Besides, there is only one piece now, so I cherish it even more.
As a result, the competition in the auction was more intense than in the previous auction.
The final hammer price was 6 billion euros.
Lin Zhennan's two pieces of glass imperial green jade were auctioned for a total of 11 billion euros.
Excluding commissions, it amounts to 1.1 billion euros.
Lin Zhengnan netted 9.9 billion euros.
Of course, the taxes are paid by Alassa Company.
Mr. Tom, two arms dealers, saw these Chinese people buying two stones and spending tens of billions of euros. They couldn't help but be even more stunned: These Asians are really crazy.
Tom previously thought that the equipment he sold to a division of Lin Zhengnan for US$1 billion was a huge deal.
