Don't talk about martial arts, I'm a war contractor

Chapter 212 Cook teaches skills and develops opportunities (5K please subscribe!)

Of course, there are many good things in the front line, such as the Su-27K, which later became the Su-33, the famous maritime flanker.

After the separation, Da Mao was so poor that he thought of borrowing rabbits to lay eggs, and would not sell them until he bought enough at one time.

Good guy, I didn't sell it, so I turned around and went to Ermao to get a T-10K-3 demonstrator (the prototype of the Flanker), and then I had my own carrier-based aircraft.

Small countries have no choice but to make things rather than buy them. Big countries still need to be more self-reliant.

Da Mao, who failed to succeed, failed to restart the production line in the end. The batch of more than 20 Su-33s produced after the disintegration was patched and used until now.

Because of the corrosion of sea fog and the damage to the fuselage caused by carrier-based takeoff and landing, the service life of carrier-based aircraft is generally not as good as that of land-based fighter jets.

Xia Yu heard from Alexey that more than half of the Su-33s could no longer fly, and the remaining ones would not last a few years.

When they are all decommissioned, he can help with a fight.

That would be great. The smaller the quantity, the more valuable it is for collection. The production quantity of MiG-29K is much larger than that of Flanker. It can only be used as his ordinary collection and cannot reach the rare level.

As for the quantity, if it is a two-seater trainer type, you can consider boarding the ship for fighter jet sightseeing tours.

Yes, buying the St. Paul back and renovating it will definitely generate income.

Going out to fight, let alone the immeasurable impact it will have on the world structure, is that with a full establishment of nearly 2000 people, if 95% is cut, it will only require 100 technical employees to exert the most basic combat effectiveness.

As for Jihuo Defense, Xia Yu himself is the No. 10 technical employee. Such input and output are not directly proportional.

Sitting in the port and serving as a naval museum is the most practical approach.

But we can’t just charge one ticket!
Xia Yu's idea is to retain a steam catapult to restore the carrier-based aircraft takeoff and landing capabilities of the 163-meter-long and 30-meter-wide angled deck.

You can get two of the two-seat Super Etendard, but the F-8E Crusader is really too old.

If you want to do some differentiated marketing, you have to buy the "MiG-29K".

The gimmick of the Kuomintang aircraft carrier ejecting Soviet aircraft carriers makes people want to spend money to experience it.

Referring to the MiG-29 flight experience package launched by Damao at a price of US$9 per trip, they launched a carrier-based ejection package for US$15 per trip. This is really not excessive at all!
Steam catapult, they are the only one that is currently commercializing it.

As a Soviet F-16, the operating cost of the MiG-29 is less than $5000 per hour.

The carrier-based version of the K-type may be a little more expensive, but it can be operated by Xiayu. The biggest cost is really just gas.

If Jihuo Defense can obtain the mining rights of the oil field in the later stage, it will really save fuel costs.

The purpose of becoming bigger and stronger is to form a closed business loop, and Xia Yu is quite friendly. He only harvests the rich and creates jobs for the poor.

According to the 20/80 law of social wealth distribution, [-]% of the rich occupy [-]% of social wealth.

As an entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility, Xia Yuzhi made a fortune from this 80% wealth and redistributed at least half of it.

Instead of compounding interest, making the rich richer and the poor poorer.

He is really afraid that people who know will cry to death.

After breakfast, Xia Yu came to the exhibition site again.

As a busy man, Alexey finally dropped what he was doing and arrived in Bali on the last day to meet this client whom he had never met for various reasons.

However, this time he is not the focus.

"Mr. Shylock, let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Yevgeny."

Alexei introduced the bald man in front of Xia Yu, the catering oligarch he mentioned.

"Hello, Mr. Yevgeny."

Xia Yu stretched out his hand and shook hands with Mr. Ye Fu, a second-time entrepreneur.

It's not easy. He seems to be one or two years older than Lao Xia. If Xia Yu was his age, he wouldn't have the heart to start a business again.

"Hello, Mr. Sherlock, I have heard about your deeds as far away as Africa in the north."

Old Ye Fu complimented Xia Yu when he came up.

"A small achievement will make your battle in Syria more difficult."

It is indeed difficult to fight. More than 9% of the battles in the north are street fighting, which is much more intense than in the central part.

Xiayu also had street fights with the rebels when they fought against Bomatu and Pannaka.

I don’t know when it will be the next time I enter the city to fight.

"My soldiers are well-trained and they also need this job to support their families, so we do our best to complete the contract."

"Yes, complete the contract!"

Xia Yu said in agreement.

In the PMC business, the most important thing is to complete the contract and solve problems for Party A.

Although Lao Yefu has just entered the industry, he seems to be born to do this, and he understands the core purpose of PMC so quickly.

But the worse thing is that the musician group he leads is too complex.

Now in the development stage, they can fight and rush. It can be seen that Xiayu is not optimistic about their future.

When talking about combat and company operations, the two of them had many common topics as bosses.

"Drones, especially consumer-grade drones, are very effective in small team operations, except that the airborne time is a bit short."

Xia Yu didn't cherish the exchange of battlefield experience. After all, the intensity of the battle in the north was higher. Even if he didn't talk about it, it wouldn't take long for him to iterate on how to use the drone.

Xia Yu is not worried about whether terrorists, warlords, or rebels will learn from it.

Concentrated fire defense is also iterating. If missiles cannot lock small rotor drones, use cannons to sweep them.

He is more optimistic about the Gepard anti-aircraft vehicle retired by the Bundeswehr. It has dual 35mm Oerlikon cannons. I have used it and said it is good. Even if a programmable fuse is added, the effect will be even better.

Coupled with more advanced search/tracking radar, a new zero-jiu type air defense vehicle is created.

Maybe it's because of the bloodline. It's really good, but it's also really expensive. It costs as much as several of the latest main battle tanks!

Concentrated fire defense is definitely unaffordable. In addition, we don’t have much domestic equipment, and we have no plans to export it. At this time, buying an old Cheetah and using technical support to upgrade the old car is the most appropriate solution.

If you want to ask where the old Cheetah came from, this self-propelled anti-aircraft gun has never been dismantled by Koch Company. The good stuff has been sealed in the warehouse. Xia Yu said that Shanren has a clever plan.

As for the seemingly more advanced artillery and artillery integrated air defense system, it is not of great significance for concentrated fire defense.

After solving the white top hat, the enemies the company faced were rarely equipped with helicopters, and self-propelled anti-aircraft guns were sufficient as field accompanying air defense.

The anti-aircraft missiles used in combination with artillery and artillery are generally vehicle-mounted versions of shoulder-resistant anti-aircraft missiles.

Using them, it is better to go directly to AIM-9 and AIM-120.

These two air-to-air missiles are very good for air defense. Several fixed-wing fighter jets that appear frequently in Afika are hard to escape.

"That's right, the drone looks pretty good. I'll buy a batch later."

Old Ye Fu is willing to invest, which is why he, as a half-way monk, is loved by a group of proud soldiers.

But in the PMC industry, it is normal to be reluctant to invest, because the lives of temporary workers are really worthless.

Lao Mei's organized soldiers have to reimburse one person, and if it can be confirmed that they were killed in action rather than missing, each one will have to pay 50 US dollars. With various investments in training equipment, the loss will start at a conservative 100 million.

It would be worth it to switch to a military contractor. After all, there are only a few elites like Fire Defense. Other companies have so many employees and are still paying high standards. Not only will the company not make profits, but it will also lose money.

There is no one to do the business that is losing money. A token compensation of tens of thousands is enough, and the treatment like a white hat is considered good. It all depends on the support of peers.

And Gurner's compensation can be even higher, which is almost 10 US dollars in exchange rate.

This is already very conscientious. Even more conscientious is Xia Yu, who will compensate 20 yuan at the beginning.

The expansion of concentrated fire defense is more cautious for this reason.

Of course, Xia Yu would rather pay 200 million to his employees than pay 20 in compensation.

Life is the most precious and fair, because everyone only has it once.

The two chatted while walking and commented on the new equipment at the exhibition.

They all use second-hand goods, but who doesn’t like new ones!
In addition, Xia Yu is also very suspicious that the second-hand use of Lao Yefu's people now is just a transition. It is not impossible to obtain new equipment such as BMP-2M and T-72B3 in active service in the future.

Da Mao is like this, without compromise or disguise, but he doesn't envy him either.

Relying on the system, Xiayu can get better.

At noon, Lao Yefu invited him to have lunch at a high-end Russian restaurant in Bali.

Most of Xia Yu's understanding of national cuisine comes from Lao Mo, who must appear in historical novels. He follows the bench, spoon, knife and fork, etc., but ignores which dishes he eats.

As for the real attempt, today is the first time.

During the dinner, he asked Lao Yefu about his experience in opening a restaurant.

"Opening a high-end restaurant on an aircraft carrier? It's a very creative idea. My new island restaurant in St. Fort is a floating restaurant."

Old Yefu imparted his experience while eating.

"I only spent $5 on the boat, but do you know how much I spent on decorating it?"

"How many?"

Xia Yu asked cooperatively. "$40!"

Old Yefu raised 4 fingers.

He is generous and invests 8 times as much as the venue. He is a ruthless person.

"Business banquets are all high-end, and the decoration budget must not be saved. You have to know the positioning of your customers."

Old Ye Fu talks eloquently, and he is the most professional in this regard.

"Are the people of Afika poor? It's just ordinary people who are poor. Their elites are very rich, but there aren't many places where Afika can spend their money. Most of them live and spend their money in Europe."

"But they have to come back for a few months a year, and you have to use your brain in this regard to take their money out of their pockets."

Hearing this, Xia Yu suddenly realized.

Yes, we can’t all count on customers from Europe, Asia, and the United States. Afica itself is also a big deal.

There are many families with a net worth of over [-] million yuan, and it is more convenient for them to fly here.

"To do PMC business in Afika, you have to have good relations with both the United Nations and the African Union. But for high-end catering business, you should have better relations with the African Union. 90% of the people there rely on power and are either rich or noble. .”

That is to say, he came to Afika to fight, otherwise the old Yefu would have a lot to do here to return to his old profession.

Now it's not like the fire defense is competing with them. It can be said that they are giving everything they have to each other.

This is his experience from a small hot dog stand to an oligarch in the catering industry, which is very useful for reference.

"Let me think about it again. The military attribute of an aircraft carrier is also a special feature. It can give people a psychological hint of strength and safety. This is also good for the development of concentrated fire defense. You can invite potential Party A to come as a guest."

"If possible, you can also change two guest rooms on the ship, one with a balcony, and you can stay there directly after eating."

Damn it, isn't this a change in the direction of Yamato Hotel? I even stayed there after eating.

But the changes are over. After the changes, Xiayu can live there by himself.

Although it is a naval museum, the weapons on the ship are all real.

In addition, there is a flight runway and steam ejection, so the defense and offense are also fully equipped.

Well, it can be considered as a sub-center outside Bogo Village, one that can be moved in an emergency.

The normal situation is of course parked at the port, motionless, and the main thing is surprise.

"You have learned a lesson. Mr. Yevgeny is really a genius in the catering industry. Your joining the PMC industry is really a loss to the catering industry."

Xia Yu's kind words were like a free greeting, which made Old Ye Fu laugh.

"I only do catering to make money, this is my dream!"

I saw him gesturing to hold the gun and making a backhand gesture to pull the bolt.

Yes, for people in their 50s and almost 60s, it will be completely too late if they don’t pursue their dreams at this time.

And Xia Yu's so-called not optimistic about it, it's just the result, people care more about the process!

Some people don't understand life. They only care about the length of life but not the quality. They will only regret the dullness of life when they are old.

Old Yefu was obviously not in this category. He had everything he needed including a yacht, an airplane, and a big house, so he seized the opportunity without hesitation this time.

From now on, he will make life choices without hesitation, no matter what the consequences are.

Xia Yu envies this spontaneity and freedom, but will not imitate it.

He led the charge and galloped on the battlefield, more to make money than to enjoy the excitement of realizing his dream.

At this stage, Xia Yu has not yet completed his primitive accumulation. With at least a net worth of tens of billions, he can be more relaxed!

But even $100 billion in cash seems unable to fill the hole in a certain concrete project?

Thinking of this, Xia Yu's sense of urgency rose again.

The meal lasted almost two hours, and after the two had a cup of coffee, they returned to the defense exhibition site.

The topic also switched from catering to military contracting, and Xia Yu was also touched by Damao's thoughts.

They want to seize the ecological niche of the Taoguo people in Afika.

Although the country is vast and rich in mineral and oil resources, no one can have too much money.

The other is to break the situation and export influence to the outside world again.

Decades ago, we received tens of billions of subsidies in subsidies, but now they are no better than they were then. What’s wrong with asking black people to pay off their debts?

No problem, Afika is a world where the weak eat the strong, and whoever is more powerful eats more.

Xia Yu also wanted to eat more, but the Chinese people's reserve still made him choose to follow procedural justice.

Politicians can say that once a treaty is signed, it is to be torn up, but the key to the problem is that he is a businessman!

A businessman must be trustworthy, even if he is a profiteer.

Well, honest and trustworthy Wong Tai Sin.

The profiteer Weasel put a high hat on himself.

After coming back to his senses, Xia Yu felt that Da Mao had such an intention, so he and Lao Yefu did not constitute a competitive relationship.

Because they cannibalized the market of the Tao people, the violent turmoil they brought was an opportunity to focus on defense and expansion.

Those who are good at fighting take advantage of the situation.

In the next few years, as the influence of Lalanxi fades, the probability that the Afika regime that supports them or is close to them will be overthrown is not low.

It's okay if the methods are peaceful and the handover is smooth, but if it's non-violence and non-cooperation, then fighting will begin.

PMC companies operating in Afika will usher in a period of business growth.

Xia Yu himself would not let him go if he didn't seize such an opportunity.

And now is the best time to reserve strength.

Take over small orders for security warfare, develop the company's tertiary industry, sell more arms, and plan the company's secondary combat department.

Another thing is to take advantage of the opportunity to check for leaks and fill in the gaps now, and add weapons and equipment that will be used later.

The reason is easy to find, all the apparent profits are invested in it, and whatever is left is borrowed for purchases!

It is normal for people of Xia Yu's age to take out loans to buy a house. It is also normal for him to take out loans to buy some aircraft and artillery abroad. After all, the situation here is really dire.

Soon, the remaining light of the setting sun shone on the exhibition hall, and this year's Satterley Defense Exhibition came to an end.

Some of the participating manufacturers were happy, while others were sad.

How can we not worry if the things are not sold?
The Mao people sold a lot of wheeled armored vehicles this time. After all, they have the home field advantage, and most users are not as extreme as Xia Yu.

They don't have much use for heavy tracked infantry combat vehicles. Four-wheel drive and four run-flat tires are enough.

No matter how bad the road is, go to 6×6 and 8×8.

But if you have enough budget, there is absolutely nothing wrong with getting on the tracks, especially in Afika.

This is true in areas with distinct dry and rainy seasons, as well as dry and hot deserts.

Maybe some big sand dunes can't be crossed, but you can't go over any big sand dunes!

After taking one last look at the KF-31 Lynx infantry fighting vehicle at the Rheinmetall booth, the two left the exhibition site.

"Their infantry fighting vehicles are great, but the most suitable one for us is the BMP."

Old Ye Fu noticed Xia Yu's gaze just now and said this when he came out.

"BMP-3 to be precise. Your guys should prefer its troop compartment."

Xia Yu corrected.

If it weren't for the poor defense, he would still be very satisfied with the BMP-3's firepower and space.

"Yeah, who doesn't like being tall and spacious!"

Old Ye Fu also laughed at himself.

He invited them for lunch, and Xia Yu invited them for dinner. They chose to have Chinese food.

"I know an architect who likes your Chinese architectural style very much, but I don't have a good relationship with him."

As a cook, Lao Yefu still knows how to use chopsticks and complains to Xia Yu while eating.

"You are not a dollar. You can make everyone like you. Just be happy."

Xia Yu comforted Lao Yefu.

As for which one was engaged in construction, he seemed to know who it was.

As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and one force cannot represent a country.

You think the other person is very radical, but who knows that he is the most conservative in their family.

　The monthly ticket is completed, and the extra money will have to wait until the National Day to save up [-] yuan a day. After writing [-] yuan every day, I feel like I have been drained. . .
