1093 Being poor is not a reason to give up the pursuit of expensive advanced weapons and equipment 3/5

Chapter 1092           Poor is not a reason to give up on pursuing expensive and advanced weapons and equipment (35)

"Can't handle the Angolans?"

Xie Kai thought Zheng Yucheng had something to come to him.

It was actually this old guy who couldn't handle the Angolans, just as he predicted.

"Yes, those Angolans are so poor that they are so arrogant. They give people the feeling that they have more money than Iraqis." Zheng Yucheng's new secretary Yang Xiaodong, who came to find Xie Kai, complained.

Xie Kai looked at him and said with a smile, "Angola has always been supported by the Cuban Air Force since the beginning of the civil war. In that era, the Soviets supported the MiG-21 fighter jets. Although it seems to be behind now, the supersonic capabilities are still good..."

Xie Kai knew very well about the Angolans.

Now the civil war has barely stopped. Although the United States and South Africa have signed contracts and they will no longer support anti-government such as UNITA and have become guerrilla armed forces, the war is still continuing.

The only four sovereign states in Angola, the United States, Cuba and South Africa signed the ceasefire agreement.

Anti-government guerrillas like UNITA are not qualified to sign a ceasefire agreement.

Later, the Soviets supported good things like the Mi-24 armed helicopter, as well as the Su-22 attack aircraft.

The Angolan army has a high vision.

"Don't be happy. Now the exam is over. Director Zheng asked you to go there quickly. Comrade Mo Qi's place, another doctor and a nurse were transferred to the base so that shifts could be changed. Director Zheng said, if he can handle it, there is no need to bother you..." Yang Xiaodong looked at Xie Kai, a young man who was a little younger than him, and said awkwardly.

People are incomparable to people.

Look at yourself and then look at others.

Although Moqi is still in a coma, the fetus in his arms is developing well, which is a brand new topic for the domestic medical field, so Moqi has received a lot of care, and Xie Kai is not very worried.

I just go with Mo Qi every day and talk, hoping that Mo Qi can wake up.

Lying in bed, I always rely on fluid food, and I can hardly keep up with nutrition and other things, and my body functions are much worse.

"Where are the Angolans now? How did they arrange them?" Xie Kai asked, "Will Lao Zheng take them to our base with you?"

"This is the original plan." Yang Xiaodong looked at Xie Kai with some confusion.

"What do you think of a poor country like Angola? Even if you look at it, a brigade needs at least one billion US dollars. Can they afford it?" It's not that Xie Kai looks down on the Angolans, but that they are really poor.

Didn't look at it? They bought the refurbished version of the Su-30k fighter that was returned by the third Indian brother, and they could only buy 12 at a time?

Poverty is not the reason why a country pursues advanced weapons and equipment in the process of national defense construction.

At least, for the country of Angola.

Anyway, since Xie Kai learned about this country, this country has always been like this.

After South Africa and Cuban troops evacuated, in order to eliminate UNITA, Angola also set up a large group of Su-25s and unknown Mi-24 armed helicopters from the Soviet Union. It seems that it was almost the same time?

Later, because the Su-25 was thrown into many consecutive frames by the Angolan Air Force, when dealing with the UNITA guerrillas, these fighter jets only dropped bombs at an altitude of 5,000 to 7,000 meters and evacuated, turning the Su-25, which had performed very well in both mobility and accuracy on the battlefield in Afghanistan, turned into a Malaysia that was pulling goods, almost making Sukhoi's chief commander angry and vomited blood.

In 1990, Angola felt that this thing was not easy to use, so he ordered 14 brand new Su-22s from the Soviet Union for US$25 million each.

Of course, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Angolan government, which lost US$400 million in US dollars of military aid every year, quickly gave up the cause of communism and turned to the United States, and publicly stated that it was "very disappointed with the Soviet Union"... As a result, the US$4.1 billion in arms owed to the Soviets was denied.

Moscow definitely could not bear this anger and directly terminated the supply of spare parts and withdrew experts. The Su-25 purchased from the Soviet Union never flew into the sky of Angola again. Later, Libya bought several pairs of aircraft and a large number of bulk accessories at an extremely low price. The rest became a monument to the Soviet Union's US$4.1 billion arms assistance during the Angolan civil war.

"It's probably going to land now." Yang Xiaodong said.

There are special combat brigades over 404. Every time you sell equipment, no matter what the other party needs, you can directly pull out the special brigades and then have a live demonstration to demonstrate performance with actual combat, so it is easier to sell equipment.

Xie Kai has always done this.

What's more, this is in line with the style of strategic deception, right?

Let the international community study and analyze slowly.

The more they think that China has strong military strength and makes various small moves, the more careful they have to be, right?

Just like Director Zhang of the Strategic Scam Bureau, he doesn't even make a draft when he brags about it. China has a trump card of aircraft carriers. As long as it is only a few ounces of party fees - 26, the US aircraft carrier will have to sink to the sea to feed sharks...

"Fuck! They didn't think about betraying the debt from the beginning, did they?" Xie Kai immediately felt cold on his back.

Otherwise, where did the Angolan Air Force get so much confidence?

Lao Zheng definitely doesn't know these things.

In desperation, Xie Kai had to hurry to base 404.

"Mr. Liu's Y-8 has been waiting at the airport, so I'm here to take that one." Yang Xiaodong looked at Xie Kai, his mind was a little complicated. In order to pick up Xie Kai, he specially dispatched a plane.

If you fly once, you will lose tens of thousands of dollars.

Xie Kai didn't say anything else, but went to the hospital to see Mo Qi and told Mo Qi that he was going back to his hometown and would come back soon. At the same time, he also met with the newly transferred doctor and nurse, and then returned.

"I've really had enough of these bastards! There is no money for the ball, and the requirements are too high! People are poor and have to spend high consumption..." Xie Kai returned to the base and went straight to the headquarters office building. As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard Zheng Yucheng's angrily scolding.

Obviously, the people who were scolding Angolans.

"Are you back?" Wang Guilin looked surprised when he saw Xie Kai coming in and said to Yang Xiaodong who was following behind, "Comrade Xiao Yang, please go to the cafeteria to ask them to prepare for a late-night snack."

"Don't be angry, I told you about their situation before. People have been used to good things from the beginning. Moreover, they don't need to pay money immediately when buying advanced equipment, just owe it." Xie Kai naturally knew why Zheng Yucheng got so angry.

"I don't know how to pay? I owe it? We have sold equipment for so many years, can we do it without paying it?" Zheng Yucheng was immediately displeased.

If you want to owe money, that's absolutely not possible.

"Resources to change equipment." Xie Kai reminded Zheng Yucheng.

This plan was originally proposed by them. In order to ensure that the domestic military system has certain orders, it can continue to develop based on these orders.

"That's not money?"

"Anyway, they don't have the ability to mine, right?" Xie Kai said.

It’s not heartbreaking to sell the land of the monk.

The Angolan government is now almost out of poverty.

"The investment is high and the return period is long." Wang Guilin was also a little worried, "Although it is a good thing for the current base to have more sources of funds."

"Risk transfer. Cooperate with the two oil barrels, and they will also be more interested in foreign oil fields..."

These things are not easy to operate in 404, but transfer this business to two barrels of oil, they invest, and then 404 only needs to pay dividends.

As for the equipment? Then let’s deduct it from the oil first, right?

On the way back, Xie Kai had already planned it.

At this time, Angola was not yet fully peaceful and the oil at sea had not been explored.

It will not be until the 1990s that the deep-sea oil fields that occupy the vast majority of Angola's oil share will be discovered.

"Deep-sea oil field? You're crazy! There is no such technology in our country!" Zheng Yucheng had to interrupt Xie Kai's self-satisfaction idea.

The prospects are very good. Take the opportunity to take down the deep-sea blocks in Angola and mine oil. At that time, no matter whether you sell the oil fields or keep them for your own mining, there will be no problem.

Xie Kai ignored a key issue - China does not have deep-sea oil production technology!

Not only does China not have deep-sea oil production technology, but it does not even have the manufacturing technology of deep-sea oil production equipment.

"Didn't the offshore oil be drawn out separately in 1982? How could it not be..." Xie Kai was stunned.

The coastal areas of Angola, offshore oil fields and other things are occupied.

The exploration of oilfields in deep-sea blocks will have to wait until the 1990s, and now it can be obtained at an unimaginable price. In that case, the difference will be several times.

The Angolans probably don't know that there is oil in their deep-sea areas.

If you miss this opportunity, what will happen in the future?

If possible, Xie Kai could even take it directly, obviously not.

A huge piece of fat meat was placed in front of me, and Xie Kai had already pounced on me, opened his mouth and prepared to bite it hard, and then found that his teeth were gone...

Can it work if you can't eat fat?

"If there is no mortgage and no resources, is it really free to provide equipment?" Xie Kai was a little confused.

He knew that the Angolan government would be liable for the future.

Although the Soviet Union collapsed, the Russians still inherited most of the Soviet Union's family business. The Angolan government said "I was very disappointed with the Soviet Union" and just said, "I'm very disappointed with the Soviet Union." It's impossible to say anything about it, right?

"We are still exporting oil in China. Or do we still need other resources? Gold mines, copper mines, manganese mines, etc., even phosphates are fine. We also import a large amount of fertilizers in China every year, and Africa also needs a large amount of fertilizers." Wang Guilin said.

They had to discuss what they wanted Angora.

The Angolans don't take it seriously, they have to take it seriously.

"It would be great if they had money. If they had no money, they would pretend to be very rich, and they were so proud!" Zheng Yucheng also looked resentful.

"Don't expect them to have money. If you wait for another fifty years, you will probably have no money." Xie Kai shook his head.

Thirty years later, Angola became Africa's largest oil-producing country, with a per capita GDP of more than US$7,700. However, only 37% of residents in Angola's domestic use of electricity, half of them do not have safe drinking water, the unemployment rate reaches one quarter, and one in every five children will die before the age of five...
