1078 Lessons from Disobedient Iraqis

"Risk the price? Liu, you can't do this. The price you sold at the beginning was not like this!" The Iraqi people looked at Liu Yijiu in a bit incredible.

For them, the other party asked them to purchase at least 150 J-11s, and each aircraft would have to reach a price of 63 million US dollars before they would give them relevant fighter jet manufacturing technology and supporting missile manufacturing technology.

You know, the price of Iranians and Pakistan was only about 55 million US dollars.

The Chinese are clearly trying to kill them!

"General, there is a kind of professionalism in this world called inflation. The United States has been in an arms race with the Soviet Union over the years and has continuously increased their fiscal deficits. Because of this, for the whole world, the US dollar is becoming less and less valuable, and international currency settlement is mainly US dollars. Of course, if you use our currency to settle, these prices can naturally be reduced..." Liu Yijiu is very unhappy about the Iraqis.

These bastards are clearly being cheated by the Russians and the US imperialists, so they will eventually come to China to seek the production technology of these fighter jets and even missiles at this time.

The conflict between the United States and Iraq should have begun to break out.

"No, even if inflation is in progress, it is impossible to increase so much price!" Settlement in RMB? This is simply impossible.

Internationally, the RMB is not an international currency at all, and China itself does not import enough from abroad.

Originally, Kanlam and others thought that the Chinese would be very happy to sell their technologies to them. Anyway, a lot of these technologies have been sold, and there are not many of them in their family, and the cost has become lower. I never expected that the Chinese not only did not give them more discounts, but instead raised the prices at such a time.

How could they know that Liu Yijiu was in a bad mood these days because of the missile accident, and he was also very unhappy with the ambiguous attitude towards the Iraqis.

It's natural to raise prices.

This thing is completely the seller's market.

"With China's economy growing rapidly, our employment costs are also increasing. At the same time, our currency has increased more and more due to the increasing ties between world trade, so our costs have increased too much. If you need technology and supporting missile production technology, that's the price. Otherwise, we have no need to talk about it!" Liu Yijiu's attitude was very firm.

He looks like he loves to buy but not to buy.

For him, it is not important whether Iraq will be beaten by the United States now or whether it will cause a blow to the Americans.

According to the current situation, it is impossible for the Soviet Union to disintegrate in 1991.

Saddam is not a person who can listen to his opinions.

Or, no matter how many weapons and equipment they are given, they will eventually turn into a pile of scrap iron under the bombardment of the United States-led joint team.

Seeing Liu Yijiu's attitude so firm, Kanlam was almost so angry that he gritted his teeth. In the end, he could only end the first negotiation between the two sides on the introduction of the production technology of China's J-11 heavy fighter jets and the related supporting Changkong Lijian air-to-air missile technology.

"What? The Chinese actually raised so much in such a short time? And we were also required to purchase at least 150 aircraft! With so many, what else do we need to produce technology?" Iraq quickly got the news.

Saddam was furious when he heard that the Chinese actually raised their purchases on Iraq in a targeted manner!

"His Excellency the President, there is no way to deal with this kind of missile from the Chinese at present. After Iran obtained these imitated F-14 fighter jets from China, it has shot down hundreds of our fighter jets..." Hasim's face was very serious.

Although Iraq's current financial situation is already very bad, it has many Arab brothers' support. In terms of funds, one or two hundred billion US dollars is really not a headache for them.

"It's so shameful!" If China borders Iraq, the President probably has issued an order to launch a war against China.

This is discrimination.

"Perhaps, we can just negotiate with them directly to introduce the technology of the Changkong series missiles. Even if you give more money, it will be cost-effective for us!" As the director of the Military Industry and Production Department, Kamal has always been responsible for military industry technology.

The information was bought back from the International Mercenary Group and was confirmed.

However, it is not easy for Iraq to get samples for imitation.

"And, the Chinese have now begun to catch up with the world's advanced footsteps in some fields. Some related supporting equipment for their missile production and fighter production are very needed for us. Although our relationship with Western countries is also good, they refuse to export these key core equipment to us..." Kamal's meaning is very clear. Iraq can take this opportunity to introduce relevant equipment and technologies from China to further improve the industrial infrastructure of the entire Iraqi field.

"Our war with the Iranians exposed many problems. We do not have complete military production facilities. Even if we order a lot of advanced weapons and equipment abroad, it is impossible to immediately replenish if we lose it on the battlefield..."

This is a problem summarized by Iraq after the war.

Logistics, especially the consumption of military equipment, seriously affected the entire course of the war for Iraq.

At the beginning, Iraq had a huge number of various weapons and equipment, so they invaded Iran and occupied a large area of ​​territory.

The result was that the two sides fought fiercely and lost too much equipment. In the end, after several years of war, they changed from an offensive side to a defensive side, and even lost the Fao Peninsula!

That is the southern oil-producing area, and it is close to the port.

Although Saddam was conceited, he also knew clearly that although Iraq was relatively developed before the war and even claimed to be the third in the world in military affairs, it was simply a joke compared to those countries with their own military manufacturing system.

It is precisely because of this that they hope to introduce the production technology of third-generation fighter jets from the United States or the Soviet Union.

As long as it can be introduced, not only their equipment, but also many Arab brothers will buy and prepare equipment from them.

This will reduce the cost of introducing some technologies and even make the entire Arab world closer together.

The Arab world has the most important strategic resources in this world. They are all covered with black gold. However, none of them has a perfect industrial system. All countries purchase equipment from abroad!

"This should be the Chinese people's retaliation against us for giving up the negotiations with them!" Izart Ibrahim Duri, as the second-ranked figure in Iraq, was used as a foil most of the time, but he was deeply trusted by the president.

When everyone looked at him when he heard the second person say this, even Saddam was a little surprised, "How do you say this?"

"When the Chinese first sold weapons and equipment to us, we did not show our importance to them at that time. The Longwei tank was purchased from the Chinese after our tanks and helicopters suffered a great loss. At the beginning, the other party had already expressed great dissatisfaction. This time, at the beginning, the other party also sold us, but we considered that China's technological strength was not good at all, their weapons and equipment performance was not advanced enough, and their power was not strong enough, so we had been negotiating with the Soviet Union and the United States, neglecting the Chinese... In the end, they successfully sold a large number of fighter jets to Iran and other countries, and also had production technology. At present, these fighter jets only appeared in Iran, and Iran had production capacity, which is a warning to us..."

As the vice president, this kind of analysis is all about it.

No one can refute it at all.

Saddam also understood that Izart had an idea to raise such a question at this time and signaled him to tell him a solution.

"The Chinese should have raised the price because of dissatisfaction. Kalam's identity is obviously a bit low in this matter." When he said this, Izart paused for a moment, then did not respond to Saddam before continuing, "If we send someone with a high enough status to make China angry, I think the price should be reduced a lot..."

Izart actually said something else, that is, the Chinese seem to have always been very concerned about enhancing their Iraqi strength.

Since the other party was concerned, the president did not pay any attention to it.

That's why this situation is caused.

"Then, you can go to China. We have now begun to restore oil production. China's economic growth is rapid, and the demand for oil is becoming more and more vigorous. Saudi Arabia is still increasing oil production, so we can only develop new markets..." Saddam's final words allowed Izart to achieve his goal of going to China.

Moreover, with him, Saddam's son-in-law, Iraq's Minister of Military Industry and Production, General Kamal.

Liu Yijiu really didn't expect that Iraq would attach so much importance to this matter.

Originally, he thought that Iraq had to choose China this time because it was forced by Iran.

In the whole world, only China currently has medium-range active radar-guided missiles like Changkong Lijian that can reach a hit rate of more than 90%. With such performance, Liu Yijiu has a proud enough attitude and confidence.

The other party sent the second person from the entire country to China secretly, and Liu Yijiu had to seriously consider cooperation with Iraq.

This has already given the opportunity to strengthen some aspects of development and prepare for it as it wishes. When the Americans join forces with NATO countries to deal with Iraq, the results they want to see will definitely appear.

Iraq's attack on Kuwait is impossible to escape, because Saddam is determined to restore the glory of the ancient Babylonian Empire. At the same time, Iraq needs more outlets to transport more oil to exchange for more funds to develop an unspoken army that has been destroyed by Iraq.

"Director Liu, we hope to obtain some basic technical support from your country to develop our military industry. I know that before, because we responded to your kindness with a bad attitude... In order to express our apology, the President ordered Minister Kamal and I to come to China in person, on the one hand to express our apology to you, and on the other hand to show more sufficient sincerity in cooperation..." Kamal put his attitude very low.

As soon as he came, he apologized to Liu Yijiu and expressed President Saddam's importance to the introduction of technology.

Liu Yijiu was a little embarrassed to trick Iraqis according to his original anger.

After all, a lot of it has been sold before. Although no matter how much money you have, it will not be too low. The problem is that it is really not suitable to blackmail Iraq too ruthlessly, otherwise the other party will hold a grudge against China.

"Mr. President, I just regret that we have not reached a cooperation agreement before. There is no error in your principles, but this time our offer is not because you rejected our proposal and deliberately raised the price. Instead, our cost is actually very high. Especially for some related core components, our production capacity has long reached the limit. Iran ordered hundreds of aircraft, Pakistan ordered a lot, and Argentina... In this case, we cannot complete the delivery of these orders at all. You hope to complete the sooner the better. Our order has been scheduled for five years, and our country's air force has not yet obtained such advanced fighter jets..."

Half true and half false always make people believe.

Moreover, for Liu Yijiu, although he felt embarrassed to cheat Iraqi people too much, considering that the other party was not short of money at all, it would be enough to mine more oil at most, so he forced himself to bear it and gritted his teeth to reply.

However, the price in his mind has been much looser.

Iraqis do not eat or drink toast, and spend more money, which is also good for them to learn from them.

Thinking of this, Liu Yijiu felt that he was so good.

He is simply a peerless good person who can't even be found with a torch.

Unfortunately, there is no selection of the top ten people in this world that touches the world.

"We are really unacceptable to this price, given our current economic situation. Moreover, Director Liu, we hope to introduce more military technology from China..." Kamal felt very unhappy in his heart, but he did not show any signs of it on his face.
