Chapter 388(1/2)
The personnel department is still being established, and Sean's task for Douglas Meeker and Sam Markas is to identify candidates and set up Umbrella's own security system, starting with the training process.
At the same time, we also poach people from within the DSS system. Retired people can be trained in the second line, while working people can also be poached and directly join the front line.
In this regard, DSS will not have much reaction.
It can be said that DSS is full of talents, but there are many people who want to be promoted but cannot find the opportunity. Poaching a group of people can relieve some internal pressure for DSS and treat it as a replacement.
The two were also very satisfied with Sean's enthusiasm and delegation of authority, and even Sam Markas' iceberg face that had not changed for thousands of years showed a smile.
Sean also feels more at ease with the two of them. People who come from the secret service have a sense of proportion. They don't need to give any instructions alone and know what can and cannot be done.
After meeting the two of them, Sean called Little John and asked about it. The selection of retired military officers from all previous years was not going smoothly. There were many people, and there was no computer management and real-time updates, so there was no rush.
After handling some matters in Washington, he flew directly to Libya in his golden palace.
Sean is still looking forward to meeting Captain Ka.
Celebrity!
A man of God who has never won a battle and never lost a good talk.
Tripoli, the capital of Libya, is a coastal city with almost no greenery at all. It has the same desert style as always. When viewed from above, the entire city is earthy yellow.
The golden palace swooped down and landed at Tripoli's airport. From the port window, you could see that a large area of the airport had been specially cleared to prepare for Sean.
This makes Sean very satisfied.
It's not about vanity, it's about whether you take it seriously.
However, this good mood disappeared as soon as Sean got off the special plane.
Qaddazo did not come to greet Sean in person, but his close aide, Chief of General Staff Haftar.
I’ve heard that Ka Dazuo is crazy and very crazy, but I didn’t expect him to be so crazy!
Malabi, I have visited many countries. Apart from the five gangsters, I have never been to a country where the leader did not come to pick him up in person. You are really good at being a captain!
Xiao En didn't make a fool of himself on the spot. Ka Dazuo was incompetent and he couldn't do it. After all, in theory, he was just a businessman. It was enough for the chief of general staff of a country to personally greet him.
It has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that there was a camera on site!
In Cardado's view, Sean is just a businessman, not the President of the United States. How could he, a dignified leader of a country, condescend to welcome a businessman!
This is obviously not equal!
There is a photo in later generations, which was taken by Colonel Cardiff when he met with the leaders of other countries. The others were all in suits and leather shoes, smiling. Only Colonel Cardiff stood in the C position wearing a robe and sunglasses, with two His arms were placed on the shoulders of the two national leaders next to him.
awesomeness!
Sean didn't prepare a car for Libya. Except when he went east, he always only took his own car, which was safe!
We went all the way to Kadado's palace in Tripoli, where Kadzo appeared wearing a white robe, a hat, sunglasses that never left his body, and a mustache.
He smiled reservedly, held his head high, and was quite proud, "Sean, my friend, you are welcome to come."
Sean looked like he was not feeling well, what could he say?
Ka Dazuo’s arrogance is serious!
Ka Dazuo personally led him to his palace. The palace was far less big than that of King Kunijiji, but the level of luxury decoration was comparable. All the places that could be gilded were gilded, which highlighted the splendor of the palace.
It is said that Ka Dazuo likes to live in a tent and does not like to live in his own palace.
There are many convincing photos to prove this. For example, I lived in a tent when attending a United Nations meeting in New York, and I was also in a tent when I met with *** in 2006.
But the fact is that before 2001, Ka Dazuo still liked to live in the palace...
For example, during his visit to China in 1983, Colonel Cardal stayed in the State Guesthouse.
It wasn't until Kadazhuo watched the United States suddenly launch a war to destroy Iraq and take Sha Damu away that Kadazuo suddenly became very interested in tents.
After all, the tent can be changed anytime and anywhere, and a protruding one will not be easily locked by guided missiles!
Closer to home, Sean finally saw the world-famous female bodyguard team, its attraction and all...well, let's talk about arms.
The meal was eaten in Kadzo's palace, traditional Libyan food, cheese, flatbread...
Anyway, Sean thinks that round and flat cakes are all called pancakes.
While eating, Cardano began his performance, "Libya is the most powerful country in North Africa, both militarily and economically, there is no doubt about it!"
"Africa has always been synonymous with poverty and backwardness, but Libya has changed the world's impression of Africa. As the most powerful country, Libya has the responsibility and obligation to unite African countries and build a strong country!"
"It's just that not everyone has such a far-sighted vision..."
Ka Dazuo began to talk eloquently, describing his great ambitions, which made Sean very annoyed.
"Okay, Colonel Kaddazo!" Sean waved his hand to interrupt Gaddafi's tirade, "I flew thousands of miles from Washington to listen to your tirade!"
In a word, Ka Dazuo was really unable to get off the stage.
Staring at Sean, Ka Dazuo snorted heavily, waved his hand for everyone else to get out, and then said with a cold face: "Are all Americans so rude!"
"I'm very busy, do you understand?" Sean stared at Ka Dazuo and said expressionlessly: "Be rich, you are not as rich as me, I am now worth more than 6 billion US dollars!"
"You are even worse than your military strength. I have a guided missile destroyer formation and a guided missile formation that can defeat you at any time."
"Compared with rights, in Africa, whoever I want to support can be the master of a country!"
“Like Morocco!”
"In addition, I don't know what other Americans are like, but my Arab friends like me very much!" Sean looked at Cardano with a smile and said: "For example, Silly Dam, the King of Saudi Arabia, the country of Qatar, the whole country
Everyone in the Middle East is my friend!"
"They are willing to be friends with me, and I have brought them a lot of good things, including large quantities of munitions, tanks, armored vehicles, artillery, guns, and ammunition!"
"I like to talk about business first, and then talk about friendship after we have more contact and understand each other. What do you think?"
"You have to understand, no one can make a deal with you except me!" Sean raised his hand and clicked on Kazuo.
"Huh, there are no Americans, there are SL people!" Ka Dazuo said with a cold face.
"The premise is that you first pay back the US$4 billion owed to the Soviets, and then we can talk about business!" Sean sneered. The data showed that Colonel Cardano still owed the Soviets a huge sum of money.
What Cardozo means is that the Soviet Union’s support to other African countries is reduced by 50%, and some are even free of charge. Why is it that when it comes to Libya, it does not reduce or reduce a penny?
Therefore, Ka Dazuo never paid back the money until *** came to ask for the account in 2006, and finally reached a series of cooperation plans with Ka Dazuo.
As a result, when the financial crisis broke out in 2008 and crude oil prices plummeted, Cardano not only failed to repay the money, but actually owed an extra 100 million...
"Okay, let's get down to business. You are looking for me because of the Toyota war launched by Chad, so let's talk about this first. I have ways to deal with them, but the question is, how are you going to pay?"
The expression on Cardano's face changed for a while, but in the end he said nothing more. He finally saw that Sean was not prepared to pamper him like in Africa or other Arab countries.
"First tell me what you can do." Ka Dazuo adjusted his mood and asked in a deep voice.
When he is not arrogant, Ka Dazuo's IQ has once again occupied the high ground.
"Two ways." Sean stretched out two fingers and gestured, "First: use armed helicopters. In the face of air strikes, any Toyota pickup truck is rubbish."
"The second way is that as long as you pay, you don't have to worry about anything. The American soldiers under the umbrella will solve all your troubles. It's hard for you to hit a Mercedes-Benz Toyota car from a distance of several hundred meters, but it's very important to me."
It's not a problem at all for snipers, they are nothing in front of large-caliber anti-materiel sniper rifles."
There is no need to hit anyone at all, just hit the front of the car. Whether it hits the engine or something else, the car can be stopped with one shot.
Ka Dazuo blinked. It's not that he hadn't thought of these methods, but he didn't have enough armed helicopters. Without them, he couldn't defend the long border.
As for top snipers, it’s not that there aren’t any in Libya, but they’re useless if they’re small in number!
Ka Dazuo lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head again with a smile on his face. There was no trace of his previous arrogance, "Armed helicopter? Cobra?"
Sean rolled his eyes. Damn it, Colonel Card is not an honest person. He changed his face very quickly. "No, Colonel, what are you thinking? Cobra, do you think Congress can agree to sell it to you?"
?”
Ka Dazuo's face immediately dropped and he snorted, "Then what are you talking about about the armed helicopter!"
Good guy, don’t hide it at all!
It’s not surprising that Kadzo was always challenging the United States. Previously, Kadzo proposed to purchase advanced weapons and equipment from the United States, but the United States refused to sell them. There was no other way. Kadzo turned around and approached the Soviets. It’s strange that the relationship was good.
Ka Dazuo is actually quite real...
"Don't even think about it. Even if Cobra is sold to you, can you afford it? The minimum export price will not be less than 25 million. This does not include the various supporting missiles and service centers. This is what Libya can afford.
equipment?”
"For 25 million, I will buy 10 of them immediately, and I can also buy the supporting service center!" Ka Dazuo said angrily.
Sean was stunned and asked with some uncertainty: "Have you mentioned buying? How much did they quote?"
"One hundred million for each aircraft!" Ka Dazuo said with a dark face.
Phew, Sean spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and it was the Congressman who was black!
In later generations, when the United States exported the Apache, the highest asking price was 200 million.
In fact, it's not a big problem if you sell it. The missiles you receive will not be supplied later, and the armed helicopters, no matter how advanced, are useless.
"Forget about the Cobra and Black Hawk. I can get you a low-end armed helicopter. Although it is a bit older, you can only use it to deal with the government troops in Chad. It is enough!" Sean said
Shaking his head, he brought the topic back and said: "It is useless if there are less armed helicopters. At least 100 of them are needed to start. This kind of helicopter is simple to operate and its firepower is mainly cannon. Your soldiers can learn how to operate it in a short time."
