v2 Chapter 1100： 1st largest order

The inspection fee is just a small episode, and even Kuwait, who has paid countless times, will not take it to heart. I can only say that I didn’t understand the truth before, and I don’t need to make similar mistakes in the future. As for the money, they really don't care that much. The wealth of this country is too easy to come by, the king said to save it, but in fact it is still very difficult to do.

After watching the PPT carefully prepared by Heiyun engineers, King Jaber said directly: "The solar power generation project is implemented according to the plan of Heiyun Group. Although I am not a professional, it seems very reasonable. Professionals do professional things, and about technology Kuwait will not participate in this regard, and we only hope that the Black Cloud Group can maintain the quality and quantity.”

It is refreshing to deal with rich people, and dare to make a decision without even asking about the price. It can be said that this kind of customer is not someone who cares about the price at all, and the degree of arrogance can be seen in general. In fact, another key point is that Heiyun Group does not dare to make random quotations if it wants to get more orders in Kuwait.

Moreover, Bao Zixuan's reputation in the Middle East cannot be described in a single word, at least the royal families recognize him very much. Prince Sultan has a good personal relationship with King Jaber. When he invites the Black Cloud Group to come to Kuwait for inspection, he will definitely ask him about the relevant situation. Prince Sultan's words carry a lot of weight, at least King Jaber won't doubt it.

Plus what Bao Zixuan said just now, it also played a big role. It is definitely more reliable than other multinational companies. There is really nothing to doubt or worry about in cooperating with such a company.

The customer absolutely believes in you, and the Heiyun Group can't even raise prices on the ground, that is, Bao Zixuan's character has a problem.

Rudolph, chief engineer of metal sodium solar power equipment, said: "According to our calculations, the total cost of laying solar power equipment in four places in Kuwait should be about 13.6 billion US dollars. If all are implemented according to the design, it can generate 20 billion kWh of electricity every year. That is to say, as long as the installation is completed, there will be no power shortage in Kuwait; it can even be exported to surrounding areas.”

Although the cost of 13.6 billion US dollars is very high, it is still acceptable for Kuwait.

King Jaber: "If the black cloud design scheme is implemented, how much money will be needed to maintain and replace the power generation equipment when it reaches its service life."

This is the key, because the Heiyun Group gives the safe service life of metal sodium solar power generation equipment is ten years. What to do after ten years, as a king, the problem must be considered in the longer term.

Rudolph: "Everything is designed according to the highest standards. It is expected that the first batch of products will have a useful life of 15 years. Then we only need to replace the metal sodium solar panels above. As for other auxiliary equipment, the design life is 100 years."

"At least in the next 100 years, as long as the earth's climate does not change significantly, Kuwait does not need to worry about electricity problems."

However, I still recommend keeping a few natural gas power plants, which can also play an important role in an emergency. "

"If there is a war between other countries and Kuwait, rain missiles are launched in the sky; without sunlight, the efficacy of solar power generation equipment will be greatly reduced."

"The Black Cloud Group has the most advanced natural gas generator set, which has been completed in Jordan and started to generate electricity. The US$13.6 billion we are talking about includes the cost of building two natural gas power plants next to the solar power equipment."

This is a profession, and people have already tested all the problems. And even if the plan is done, when will Kuwait be able to have such an enterprise.

King Jaber was very happy and said directly: "Black Cloud Group has analyzed all the problems and did not deceive customers. This is very touching. On behalf of the Kuwaiti people, I thank you."

"Everything is done according to what you said, and the price is 13.6 billion US dollars. Although I believe that the Black Cloud Group can do things well, I still have to make it clear; this is a national strategic project, and I hope you can pay more attention."

The Kuwaiti people are also very refreshing. Projects with more than 10 billion yuan have been implemented directly.

The next step is to connect the engineers, the king and the boss do not need to participate.

Bao Zixuan came to the study with King Jaber and three important members of the royal family. Seeing this situation, the richest man Bao certainly knows that there must be other secret projects to discuss; it may also involve national security. Although many things can't be hidden from people, they don't want the whole world to know.

After a few people sat down, King Jaber said with a smile: "Mr. Bao, although it's a bit presumptuous, I still hope you can help solve Kuwait's military issues."

"We in Kuwait don't care about spending more money, but foreign countries, especially European and American countries; the weapons and equipment sold to us are urban castrated versions. It is already very good if there are no problems, and there is no combat performance at all."

"Black Cloud Group can produce aircraft, military vehicles and other weapons and equipment. We can spend more, but only if we can get the best; at least the weapons and equipment are more advanced than any country in the Middle East."

This can be a test, it depends on whether Bao Zixuan can seize the opportunity. Provide weapons to a country, and it looks like it's all going to you. It is definitely a long-term business, and the profit must be very considerable.

But at the same time, there should be no problem, people will overwhelm you. If a war breaks out and the weapons and equipment are not good, not only will you lose an order from a country, it may become very difficult to do business in this area in the future. No one will let an arms company with substandard weapons provide weapons and equipment to the country.

Before he came here, Bao Zixuan knew that there were about 15,500 troops in the KMT, including 11,000 in the army, 2,500 in the air force, and 2,000 in the navy. There are 129 aircraft, including 80 combat aircraft and 32 armed helicopters. The air defense force consists of 15 companies; the reserve force is 23,700 people.

The paramilitary National Guard consists of 6,600 people, consisting of 1 armored battalion, 1 special forces battalion, 3 reserve battalions, and 1 police battalion, equipped with 20 armored reconnaissance vehicles and 92 armored transport vehicles. The coast guard has 500 people, equipped with more than 30 minesweepers/boats, 5 coastal patrol boats, and 3 general-purpose landing craft.

The military service system implements the compulsory military service system. The service period of the compulsory soldier is 2 years and the reserve service period is 14 years.

Although there are not many people, it is also a good opportunity to open the gap. As long as the Black Cloud Group succeeds in Kuwait, other small Middle Eastern countries will inevitably come to them.

Many oil-producing countries in the Middle East hope to get the best weapons and equipment. It can be said that this is a model project, and no company does not want to get it.

Bao Zixuan: "I don't know what effect His Majesty the King wants to achieve. Let me first say that I am not a professional military personnel after all; I can only analyze the problem from a technical point of view. But even if I don't understand it, I know the combat effectiveness of a country's army; it is not just weapons and equipment. , but also personnel quality, fighting will, logistical support and other aspects."

"Of course, in modern warfare, weapons and equipment are very important. For example, the stealth fighter-bomber developed by the Black Cloud Group has enabled the Iraqi Air Force to bomb the Iranian capital without knowing it. The effect is amazing, and it can turn the war situation to a certain extent. It is a big power in the Middle East, even if the Iranians suffer , their overall strength is still there."

"The Iraqi side did not dare to act rashly. A ceasefire and truce is the best choice. However, Kuwait's entire country is small in size and basically has no strategic depth. Therefore, although offensive weapons are required, early warning and defensive weapons and equipment may be more important."

"At the same time, the population of the country is very small, and the number of soldiers is not very large. We must increase the proportion of the reserve force. They are usually students, oil workers, and government officials. Once the country enters a state of emergency, it must be able to control the most advanced weapons and equipment with the enemy. Combat; these are all very important."

"There is a saying that Your Majesty the King and His Royal Highnesses may not want to hear it. Why is Israel able to use millions of people to fight against the entire Arab world? It's not just about advanced weapons and the support of the United States. It's more about the combat literacy of the military and the fact that all the people are soldiers. The strategic layout of the country. If the whole people were not soldiers, it is estimated that the country would have ceased to exist long ago.”

“Kuwait is very rich and one of the richest countries in the world. People have no worries, they have immediate worries. I only know what your country wants to achieve, so I can eliminate the needs, give reasonable advice and match it. weapons and equipment.”

"If you simply sell weapons and equipment to your country, and the Heiyun Group can make some money, it may be very easy, but in an emergency, it will have no effect, then the company's brand and corporate reputation will be damaged. At the same time, it is also equivalent to your country. It's a pit, this kind of thing will never be done next."

Bao Zixuan's words caused several people to fall into contemplation. They guessed that this kid must have done careful preparation and detailed investigation before he came to Kuwait. Now it's finally confirmed; the right people are in the right place, it's up to Kuwait to give.
