Chapter 221 Trial Cooperation
"Xiao Mo, Valery came to Shucheng this time to cooperate with me and open a sea transportation channel!" In the living room, Gu Tianfei smiled and said something that surprised Li Mo.
In this sentence, it shows two meanings; first, Valery came this time to discuss drug matters with Gu Tianfei; second, the two had a long-term cooperative relationship before.
He looked at Valeri leaning on the sofa quietly, smilingly. Li Mo's mind is also turning sharply. What exactly is this Valery? If it was a Russian drug dealer, Gu Tianfei would not deliberately remind the two to cooperate more in the future when he was introduced. Gu Tianfei is very clear about the industry Li Mo is engaged in, that is, the arms business. Although there are many times when arms and drugs are involved, there are not many opportunities for a drug dealer to cooperate with arms dealers.
Is it... This bear-like Valery is involved in both drugs and arms industries?
With a reserved smile, Li Mo did not comment on Gu Tianfei's words. Because of the cooperation between the two, it seems that it has little to do with Li Mo. And for a drug lord, the transportation route of drugs is absolutely more important than drugs. A drug loss will not hurt a drug lord's muscles and bones; but if a secret transportation channel is broken, it will be an incalculable loss.
"Now I've almost talked to Valery. It happens that you are here. I'll help you two tie the line to see if it's possible for you to cooperate!" After saying that with a smile, Gu Tianfei looked at the two people and waited for their statement. The relationship between the two and him is not close to each other. They are both very important 'partners' or allies for him. There is an opportunity to deepen the unity between each other. Of course, Gu Tianfei, a long-lasting old fox, will not miss it.
Li Mo and Valeri's hearts were both moved. But no one spoke. Both of them don't know each other's strength, and they can't talk about cooperation at will. Especially when it comes to arms, which is a profitable and must be secretive industry.
Gu Tianfei sat in the middle, looking at both of them not expressing their position, and he was also a little anxious. There are not many opportunities like this. I missed this one, and I don't know when to wait next time.
"You two, you are both businessmen engaged in the arms business. There should be many opportunities for cooperation in arms!" Gu Tianfei thought for a thought and put the words directly on the surface.
Li Mo and Valeri looked at each other and laughed at the same time. In an instant, the two seemed to be a little closer.
"Mr. Valery, as a senior in the arms industry, you should help us new people in the future!" It's not easy for Li Mo to continue to pose in front of Gu Tianfei, and he is also very excited about this possible opportunity. He immediately put down his body and said with a smile.
"Haha, it's easy to say! You Chinese, your words are really subtle. Cooperation is cooperation. As long as everyone has interests, no matter what status or industry, they can cooperate. Valery's appearance is tough, but it doesn't mean that his mind is also like his appearance. The words are full of meaning.
Next, the topic discussed by Li Mo and Valery involves arms. In the conversation, both of them also secretly tested each other's details. However, both of them were also very measured and did not involve each other's bottom line.
After hearing Li Mo's arms business, mainly in Africa, Valeri was the real staring cow's eyes. He looked at Li Mo for a few seconds before sighing, "Li, you are the strangest and most incredible Chinese I have ever seen."
Li Mo hurriedly humbled. This kind of high hat looks good, but after wearing it on his head, there is also a lot of trouble. Li Mo is not a person who pays attention to false reputation.
"Li, I still have some power in the Far East, if you need anything. We can further deepen the cooperation between the two sides. Valery grinned. This is already a naked statement.
In the previous conversation, Li Moyin guessed that the other party should have something to do with the Russian army. But Li Mo is not optimistic about this. After all, it is now the 21st century. It is no longer the two years of the collapse of the Soviet Union. If it was around 1990, it would not be a problem to get some advanced weapons in the Soviet army with the relationship between the other party in the army; but today's Russia's economy has gradually recovered after a downturn of more than a decade. The rectification of the national political axe institutions and the army is also in full swing. After that, it was rarely heard that Russia had lost its weapons again.
And what Li Mo needs is not ordinary equipment. They are all advanced equipment that should have technical content and are difficult to imitate. This kind of technologically advanced weapons and equipment is a secret in any country. Even if there is power, it is difficult to sell it secretly.
It seemed to see the hesitation on Li Mo's face. Although Valery was a little dissatisfied, he also knew that the other party was not familiar with him.
"Li, as long as it is not part of the important weapons and equipment in the Russian army, I can help you get it!" Valery made a promise based on his own strength.
This sentence made Li Mo blush slightly. I feel embarrassed. He quickly shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Mr. Valery, I didn't mean that just now, but I was thinking about it. What do I need!"
Valery heard this, and his serious face calmed down. Whether Li Mo is telling the truth or lies, at least everyone can live on face.
Li Mo thought about it for a while. I thought that this was the first time for the two to cooperate. It is impossible to mention weapons that are too advanced and too important. It suddenly occurred to me that Michael went to Russia at this time to find the Russian major general he knew. I want to get some AT-2 airborne anti-tank missiles.
I had an idea in my heart, and Li Mo also had a relaxed smile on his face.
"Mr. Valery. I need a batch of airborne anti-tank missiles recently. It is an anti-tank missile mounted on your Inter-24 helicopter gunship. If Mr. Valery is available, we can cooperate!"
Li Mo's words surprised both Valery and Gu Tianfei. At first, the two thought that Li Mo just needed some simple weapons, such as rocket launchers, machine guns and so on. Valery even thought that Li Mo needed some authentic AK series automatic rifles made in Russia.
Unexpectedly, Li Mo opened his mouth. It's a missile! Although it is only a small anti-tank missile, this kind of thing is used too frequently than ordinary firearms. Generally, arms dealers rarely need this kind of weapon.
Is it... in Li Mo's hand? There are Mi-24 helicopter gunships.
Valery and Gu Tianfei looked at Li Mo differently.
With a wry smile in my heart, I am much more tender than these old deep-fried dough sticks that have been rolling in society for many years. As soon as he opened his mouth, the other party focused on whether he had a helicopter or not. I don't think about whether I bought it for other armed forces.
Of course, Li Mo would not admit this matter calmly, but he did not object.In the eyes of the two, Li Mo acquiesced.
Valery's attention to Li Mo has improved to a higher level. At first, it was just for the face of Gu Tianfei, who had cooperated for many years, and was ready to help Li Mo. But at this time, from the possession of an armed helicopter, Li Mo's strength can be roughly speculated. Only when you have strength can people respect and pay attention to it.
Gu Tianfei is another mentality. He knows it clearly. Nevin once proposed to Li Mo that he needed Li Mo to help get a batch of heavy weapons. In order to resist the combined army of the Wa State.
Now Li Mo has a heavy weapon such as an armed helicopter in his hand. Does it represent that Naiwen's military strength will be increased? Because since Li Mo promised Naiwen, he will definitely help Naiwen get heavy weapons. Moreover, Li Mo is an arms dealer. I believe Li Mo will not miss the profits of this kind of arms transaction involving heavy weapons.
All kinds of thoughts in the hearts of the two people only think clearly in an instant.
Valery didn't open his mouth, but squeezed his lips, ponded for a while, and then looked at Li Mo and said, "Do you want to 'attack' (AT-6) or 'k bone' (AT-2)" (the two code names are the internal code names of the Russian army, which are different from the code names given by NATO). The tone is full of strong self-confidence.
Can he really get it easily? Li Mo was both surprised and happy. What's surprising is that Valery can get anti-tank missile weapons in today's Russian army, so the energy behind it is really huge in the Russian army. What is happy is that he can get a batch of urgently needed standby ammunition for African bases. More importantly, Valery can get anti-tank missiles, which means that he can also get more advanced weapons and equipment. Otherwise, you won't be so confident.
"How about the price of the two?" Li Mo suppressed his excitement and asked a key question. Modern weapons can not only rely on advanced technology. Li Mo remembers that in later generations, he originally produced a tank that was advanced in the world. But at that scary price, even with Japanese national strength, has only purchased less than 20 vehicles in a few years. Another example is the former Soviet Union. The torrent of Soviet steel at that time was definitely a thing that scared all the Western world. At the peak of the Cold War, NATO, led by the United States, deployed more than 80,000 armored troops on the border between Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. When it comes to Soviet armored forces, ordinary people naturally carry a torrent, which represents a large number. The main Soviet tank at that time was the T-72 tank. At that time, the Soviet Union was not without more advanced tanks, such as the infamous T-64. It is because of the cost that there is no large-scale construction, but on the basis of it, a simple and cheap T-72 is produced.
All say that the surname-price ratio of a weapon is against a big force. They are all extremely important. Advanced alone is not enough, and it still needs to be manufactured on a large scale. This is especially true for a country.
There must be a price difference between the two anti-tank missiles, AT-6 and AT-2. One is the first-generation anti-tank missile, and the other is the second-generation anti-tank missile. Li Mo's idea is that if the price difference between the two missiles is not big, all AT-6 will be purchased. If the price difference is large, a small part of AT-6 will be purchased for use in key battles, and the others will be used for conventional first-generation anti-tank missiles such as AT-2 for conventional combat.
"If it is traded in Africa, 'attack' 160,000 US dollars, 'toe bone' 80,000 US dollars!" Valery thought about it for a while and gave a fair price!
