v2 Chapter 1385： Take the order and get it soft 17

People from the Middle East are still friends. Before leaving, Rasheed introduced a business to Bao Zixuan. And in order to avoid suspicion, after signing the contract, he chose to leave directly. Come and negotiate, bring a lawyer. It can be seen that the old guy knows that he will agree to his conditions. The hole cards are clear, but it also makes the richest man a little bit worried.

But when you think about it, it doesn't seem like much. On the contrary, he is too impressed. After all, the conditions of both parties are relatively loose, which is beneficial to everyone. As long as it is not someone who cares very much, cooperation will definitely be achieved. Moreover, the two sides understand each other and have similar personalities, which may be their own heart.

The main task now is to receive customers. Where Rashid's identity is placed, and the person who introduced it, is certainly not simple.

Hamad bin Khafa-Al Thani; born in Doha in 1950, is the eldest son of Qatar's Emir Khafa Al-Thani. He received elementary, junior high and higher education in Qatar.

After graduating from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in the United Kingdom in July 1971, he joined the Qatar Armed Forces with the rank of lieutenant colonel and served as the battalion commander of the first battalion. In February 1972, he was promoted to major general and served as commander-in-chief of the armed forces.

In May 1977, he was identified as the Crown Prince and Minister of Defense by Khalifa Emir. He has led the Qatari military delegation to participate in the Arab Defense Ministerial Conference and the Arab High-level Military Conference for many times.

After Rashid's introduction, Bao Zixuan immediately knew who was coming. Qatar is also a major oil-producing country in the Middle East, but it has not had much contact before.

The oil and gas industry is the backbone of Qatar's economy. In recent years, it has invested heavily in the development of natural gas, making it the top priority of economic development. Qatar is the world's largest producer and exporter of liquefied natural gas. It is an absolute monarchy, led by the "Al Thani family" since the mid-19th century.

The discovery of oil and natural gas under the protection of the United Kingdom replaced the original pearl mining industry and became the most important source of income for the country. Due to its rich oil resources, it has become one of the richest countries in the world. Although Qatar has a very high human development index and its citizens are extremely wealthy, it still cannot be recognized as a developed country because of its underdeveloped industry and manufacturing. .

Money is easy to do, and Hamad is definitely a ruthless man. Not only does he have a high status in the country, but he is also the master who can directly drive Dad down in the future. There is a certain risk in cooperating with such a person, but as long as the two parties confirm things, there will be basically no mistakes. After all, they are indeed powerful figures, and they can directly call the shots on anything negotiated.

Bao Zixuan said first: "Hello, His Highness Hamad! It's the first time we meet, please give me more advice."

The other party is so young that he can be entrusted with important tasks by his father. Later, he succeeded in winning the throne, and he was definitely not a simple person. Who is Bao Zixuan, a successful businessman who is qualified to compete for the richest man in the world. It doesn't matter that they are not the royal family, but they are in the hearts of the heads of states of various major countries.

The status of Bao's richest man is definitely higher than that of him, the Crown Prince of Qatar. Saying it now is for your advice, if you really think so; then it would be too naive.

There is a lot of review within the royal family, as in any country in the world. Not to mention the royal family, even the big family is very complicated. The competition between the brothers is very fierce. If someone gives you a defiant and domineering character, then the throne will basically miss you.

Hamad said with a smile: "Mr. Bao is too polite, maybe he is better from a lower background; but whether it is business or research and development, it is not comparable to you. I don't dare to give any advice. I came here purely for learning. Purpose."

"Although you know the Middle East very well, you are the best friend of our Arabs. It's a pity that you haven't been to Qatar. I heard that after this exhibition is over, you will go to the Middle East. First of all, on behalf of Qatar and the Al Thani family, I would like to express my gratitude to the al-Thani family. Your sincere invitation. I hope you can take time to come to Qatar when you visit the Middle East this time."

Both sides are people with identities, and it can be said that they are basically equal. Perhaps Bao's status as the richest man will be higher; after all, wherever he goes, he is the most distinguished guest.

Now that people sincerely invite them, it is really hard to refuse.

Bao Zixuan also knows that Hamad will be in charge of Qatar for a long time in the future. What Fucaira wants to seek, the neighboring countries really need to do a good job of relationship.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Of course there is no problem, this is my honor. I also wanted to go to Qatar before, but we are not familiar with each other. I am worried that there are no good projects in the past, and it is a waste of time."

Gu Chu

"Now His Highness Hamad, such a sincere invitation; in the past, I am a little hypocritical."

Most of the children of the royal family in the Middle East will go to the UK to study. And basically it's Sandhurst Royal Military Academy; historical origins are one thing. After all, it was the suzerainty country before, but more importantly, the king also wanted the children of the family to broaden their horizons and make some connections.

Young people who can enter the Royal Military Academy of Sandhurst in the United Kingdom have a family that is not simple. Most of them are of noble origin, and the circle culture is applicable everywhere.

Of course, there is another point, you can understand the degree of civilization in the West.

Qatar's national income is indeed not low, but its status in the international community is not high. A large part of the reason is that the domestic industrial structure is too single. Basically, except for oil and natural gas; there seems to be no industry that can be taken out.

As for the industry, it is even more bleak. At present, Saudi Arabia and Iraq are both engaged in construction. Even the UAE is pursuing other industries; they are worried that once the oil is exhausted, it will be back to bad days.

In the past, the Arabs in the Middle East basically lived on nomads. For a region with very few grasslands and a serious lack of fresh water, the days can be imagined. That is, the discovery of oil in modern times, the liquid gold. Only then did their lives change dramatically.

Having seen members of the royal family in developed Western countries, I don't want to go back to the past. Then we must seek change, otherwise everything will be in vain. Black Cloud Group can invest in Saudi Arabia and Iraq; it can cooperate with the United Arab Emirates.

Then it is completely possible to invest in Qatar, after all, in terms of financial strength and mineral resources; Qatar is definitely not bad. As for other European and American companies, Hamad really can't believe it. Before, he had invited many classmates to go to Qatar to investigate and play, and there was no problem in mining oil. But the investment industry is shaking like a rattle.

Since other roads do not work, then we must find a workable way. Bao Zixuan has no requirements on where to invest. As long as Qatar shows sincerity, I believe the other party will not refuse.

Now is not the time to talk about investment. After all, this is the first time the two sides have met. Familiarity requires a process, and it is necessary to give each other a little sweetness first.

Hamad: "It must be an honor for the whole country that Mr. Bao can come in person. When the time comes, I will be sure to wait and greet the distinguished guests."

"This time, I mainly want to buy some weapons and equipment from the Black Cloud Group. Among them, the flying saucers and small ground effect aircraft produced by the Black Cloud Group are very good. Qatar wants to buy a few back for daily training. The amount of military armored vehicles produced by Yun Group has been recognized by the US military, and Qatar also hopes to buy a batch."

Qatar has a resident population of 2.64 million, of which about 15% are Qatari citizens. The expats are mainly from India, Pakistan and Southeast Asian countries. Just a place with hundreds of thousands of people, the land area is only about 10,000 square kilometers. Coupled with the fact that it maintains a good military alliance with Saudi Arabia, the pressure on defense is not too great.

So buying a little weaponry is enough to deal with the crisis.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your recognition of the Black Cloud Group. The Black Cloud Group will never disappoint you."

Hamad also knows, for such a small order. Bao Zixuan doesn't like it at all, it's already a lot of face to be able to chat with you for so long. But I can't help but I don't know what to do, and I have to show some sincerity. So he said with a smile: "At present, Qatar Airways is being prepared in China, and we will have more opportunities for cooperation at that time. Although we can't give any guarantee to Mr. Bao yet, Qatar definitely needs the 919 and h3m-111 passenger planes."

As a professional in the aviation field, Bao's richest man is of course clear; the former Qatar Airways was not established until the end of 1993, and it began formal commercial flights in early 1994; it is controlled by some members of the Qatari royal family.

Although it was established very late, it is definitely very willing to buy an aircraft. Therefore, the richest man in Bao is still looking forward to Qatar Airways, so it seems that the plane is definitely not worrying about selling.
