Chapter 1029 I Have to Buy It

Hearing that Li Changheng dared to promise to sell the frigate to Sat, Nasser's breathing became heavy.

Based on the industrial capacity of the desert area, let alone frigates, they couldn't even make larger fishing boats.

And even if they are willing to use money to build a shipyard, regardless of the source of the technology, the people of Israel will definitely do everything possible to obstruct it.

Not to mention that the local tyrants in the desert before the oil crisis were just local tyrants, and they had not yet evolved to the level of gods and tyrants who could store hundreds or hundreds of billions of dollars without moving.

Now that F14 has entered Saudi Arabia, if it gets another frigate, it will soon be able to catch up with Shilie in terms of military strength.

If a fleet of 4 guided missile frigates and a dozen near-defense gunboats can be managed at one time, this navy can basically walk sideways in the Arabian Sea.

And Li Changheng dared to make such a promise. Apart from focusing on the large amount of US dollars and oil in Saudi Arabia, the United States will take the initiative to buy advanced fighter jets and weapons to them in order to win over Saudi Arabia in the future.

M1 tanks, Apache gunships, F15 heavy fighter jets, and at least 2,500 conventional missiles.

It can be said that as long as Saudi Arabia is willing to buy, Americans will basically dare to sell everything except nuclear weapons and large ships.

And in many cases in the future, it will be Americans who will force Saudis to buy, because Saudis earn too much money in the oil field.

So much so that they dared to build modern cities one after another in the desert.

With so much money, the Americans of course tried their best to get some back from the Saudis.

The easiest purchase restrictions should be armored vehicles, tanks and various light and heavy weapons.

And the number of frigates will certainly not exceed 4.

Coupled with the fact that only models that are about to be retired are approved, the probability of approval should not be low, and the time will definitely be calculated in 5 or 10 years.

Such a long time is enough for Li Changheng and the major military industrial groups in the United States to lobby some senators who hold opposing opinions.

As for the dissatisfaction of the Yishilie people, it is nothing more than selling more weapons and equipment to them.

Selling weapons at both ends is what a qualified arms dealer should do.

——

With the temptation of a warship, Nasser flew back home in a hurry, where he still had no intention of playing golf.

And Li Changheng flew back to the United States immediately, and immediately summoned various bigwigs from many oil groups.

Everyone has the same interests, and it is easy to reach a cooperation agreement in the general direction. As for the details, I will leave it to the people below.

However, not only Li Changheng understands that it is impossible to reach an agreement on many things, but other oil companies also understand that what everyone needs is the key to enter the desert area.

For others, it depends on their own abilities.

Subsequently, Li Changheng proposed to increase aid to Iran.

At this time, Iran was still under the rule of the Pahlavi Dynasty. Because of their hostility to the red polar bear, the Americans were more concerned about Israel during the period from 1970 to 1979.

However, this time when the F14 Tomcat entered Iran, it encountered competition from the F15 fighter.

Lee Jang Hyung originally did not want F14 to enter Iran, because if nothing goes wrong, regime change in Iran will basically happen.

As good as Iran is now, Americans will be more hostile to them in the future.

If the F14 fighter jets really enter Iran, no one knows whether the US Navy will dare to continue to make great efforts and spend a lot of money to improve the follow-up models of the F14.

Of course, even if Li Changheng knew the consequences, he had to put on a show and let Grumman compete with GM's F15.

After the last round of bargaining, Grumman obtained a promise to monopolize the Israeli and Saudi fighter jet markets, and only then voluntarily withdrew from the competition in the Iranian fighter jet market.

It seemed that Grumman was at a disadvantage in this matter, and Li Changheng seemed to be forced to compromise by many financial groups, but no one knew that Li Changheng was actually watching with joy in his heart, waiting for GM to be slapped in the face.

——

A week later, because the United States has begun to discuss whether to increase the amount of Iran's arms purchases and increase aid to Israel.

Sat is probably afraid that its status will not be guaranteed, or that something will happen to the frigate.

Nasser took the initiative to ask Li Changheng to see the frigate up close.

Of course, Li Changheng would not refuse, and it only took one day to invite Nasser to be a guest on the aircraft carrier that was cruising near the Arabian Sea.

Li Changheng arrived at a base in the Red Sea by private jet, then took a helicopter to board a large aircraft carrier.

After waiting for more than an hour, another helicopter landed.

I saw Nasser in a suit jumping off the helicopter with two people in the same suit.

After another burst of greetings and reminiscences, Li Changheng and Nasser quickly walked into the control tower of the aircraft carrier.

Then, Bonaparte, a member of the Death Squad wearing the uniform of a navy captain, pointed to a frigate in the fleet and introduced the various capabilities of this ship to Nasser.

More than an hour later, on the outdoor observation deck of the tower, Nasser suppressed his excitement and reconfirmed, "Henry, are you sure we can really buy this level of frigate?"

Li Changheng smiled, "As long as you pay now, I guarantee that the two frigates will return to the United States immediately.

After receiving 3 months of maintenance, the warship can be delivered directly to you.

And we also pay to help you train officers and soldiers. "

Nasser certainly understands the so-called three-month maintenance. In addition to the fact that the ship must return to the United States for maintenance and maintenance, some equipment and weapons that need to be kept secret will also be dismantled.

But as long as the missile system is still there, and the power system and communication system are fine, Nasser is willing to buy it.

As for personnel training, Nasser knew that it was nothing more than the Americans wanting to earn another huge amount of training fees.

Moreover, for local tyrants such as Nasser, money is not a problem. They are willing to do anything that can improve the prestige and security of the royal family and the stability of the country.

"Can we buy a new ship and make some demands to improve the new ship?"

"Of course no problem," Li Changheng laughed. Anyway, a few frigates cannot threaten the safety of the United States and the aircraft carrier fleet.

As long as customers are willing to add money, of course they can change whatever they want.

As long as you get half of the crude oil produced by Saudi Arabia, you can solve most of the oil shortage in the United States, and force other local tyrants to sit at the negotiating table.

By that time, apart from Saudi Arabia, the other local tyrants basically have no capital to fight against the United States, or the lions will open their mouths and ask for prices indiscriminately.

Of course, Nasser also understood that unless the interests were so great that Sat and other local tyrants turned against each other, they would become traitors in the desert if they compromised first.

"Henry, can you really guarantee that we will get 50 billion US dollars in one year?"

Li Changheng nodded affirmatively again.

Then Nasser thought for a while before continuing, "Then we hope that the part of the money stored in Citigroup can be used to pay for four frigates and some light and heavy weapons on land.

Moreover, you must also export some weapons to several other desert countries. "

"The first one is fine, but the latter requirement,,."
