Chapter 1196 No doubt
(Today's double update, thank you for your support, as usual in the afternoon)
Qi Tianlin raised his finger: "I can solve the current violent situation by paying a one-time payment of 1.2 billion US dollars."
The white robes were finally in an uproar, and some people couldn't help but laugh dryly.
Saudi Arabia does have a lot of money and are willing to spend money. Their money is really blown out from the ground by strong winds, but they definitely don’t think they are fools, right?
What's more, the impression that people are stupid is that they are the image of the royal family as a rich man pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. There are more than 5,000 princes and more than 10,000 princes and grandsons. No matter how much money you have, you will lose it. So there are only a few people who are really rich, and the others are just the level of ordinary rich people. Don't think that if you are involved in a Saudi prince, you will be rich enough to compete with a country. Then you can compete with thousands of countries.
The king had a bit of a playful expression: "1.2 billion US dollars? Why do you pay such a price?"
Qi Tianlin bent her fingers: "If you ask Americans to help with such things, it is probably not just this price. The US military will not interfere. You may not be at ease. You can only hire semi-civilian contractors in the United States. However, you seem to have a foreign legion similar to the European and American countries that have helped you build, just like the UAE. You can tell at a glance how good the quality is now. And my contractor team has been performing contract tasks in Africa and the Middle East and Central Asia. You know very well... The most important thing is that I also have a large number of people in the UAE, which can ensure that at least the UAE will not take the initiative to attack you."
The UAE has already blocked the border between the two countries, and the domestic situation is in chaos. Saudi Arabia's own military use is quite chaotic and cannot effectively organize a dual defense line for external defense and internal suppression of rebellion. This is the most deadly thing. Internal and external troubles are to describe them at this time. Qi Tianlin's suggestion is almost a package of solutions to the situation on both sides at the same time. It is impossible not to be moved.
Prince Faisal frowned: "One.2 billion US dollars is not a small amount, what does this contain?"
Qi Tianlin talked happily: "The five thousand combat personnel start with training the government army and clearing up the chaotic internal personnel, and then assist the domestic military in carrying out regional gradual suppression and controlling the entire situation. The time may change between fifteen days and two months, depending on the specific situation. This is basically a preliminary agreement, and the specific plan must be fully finalized after the contract is signed."
Prince Faisal and the slightly irritable white robe beside him drank at the same time: "Impossible! It's too long!"
The king was indeed more extraordinary, his tone was not fast, but he was actually a little anxious: "The country could not fall into a month or two of chaos. The Arab Spring has proved that this internal chaos must be cut off the mess quickly and dealt with as soon as possible."
Qi Tianlin shrugged his shoulders. This action slightly led to the metal parts of the underarm rifle, and there was a bit of a bump: "I am just accepting the assignment of the US side to assist them in protecting the US military base, the US government and commercial property. The specific situation is the conclusion that the US side assisted me to draw. If the investment is greater, the time will definitely be shortened."
Ha, do you pay for the price? Even the king's face is not good-looking. Everyone looked at Qi Tianlin with a bad expression. Qi Tianlin also looked back quietly, holding a mineral water bottle in his hand, and sucking a little for himself from time to time to moisten his mouth.
The meeting room was a bit weird and temporarily quiet.
The 1.2 billion US dollars is actually a figure proposed by the UAE to Qi Tianlin, because the amount of property that Saudi Arabia can control should be relatively large at present, but that is movable property, not cash. Whoever will simply deposit billion US dollars in any bank when they are fine. It seems that only Chinese people like to deposit cash the most. Middle Eastern countries still pursue the principle that only investment funds are useful money, and basically invest money in various physical projects and financial products.
But now, due to the treasure cabinet, the top real estate investment of the Saudi royal family has been almost completely captured, causing the rest to be broken. The funds from the financial or real economy cannot be moved out just by slapping them. This small amount of funds is considered to test the current economic situation of Saudi Arabia.
But obviously the three princess Faisal and the king were thinking about something else. The white robe who was slightly more irritable than Faisal spoke suspiciously: "What did the Americans say to you?"
Qi Tianlin seemed to have caught a thread in his mind, but it was not clear and he could not allow him to think slowly. He answered in a simple manner: "The US government requires the Middle East to maintain the stability of the status quo, which is in line with their national and energy interests. Now I have been assisting and implementing their Middle East strategies."
Prince Faisal was more direct: "There is no other intention? For example, replace it with us..."
Qi Tianlin kept shook his head: "No... I am the contractor. Just like the agreement I signed with the UAE, the United States also openly negotiated the contract with me, asking me to ensure stability as much as possible. I was urgently summoned for peacekeeping."
In fact, for a moment, Qi Tianlin vaguely wanted to follow the lead and express the American suspicion or subversion of Saudi Arabia in an unpredictable way, which made Saudi Arabia, the former Wahhabi base, completely break up with the Americans. In the current extreme situation of internal and external troubles, he strongly distrusts the Americans, and then perhaps these actually extreme Islamists break up with the Americans and shake the United States' biggest end point in the Middle East?
But Bren expressed his desire to speak but stopped telling him not to get involved in politics and only talked with Saudi Arabia. This made him wary of the fact that Saudi Arabia and the United States were really very complicated?
Saudi Arabia has always been anti-American and is also the biggest funder of Al Qaeda. It also emphasizes that it is the center of the Islamic world. Anne also said that she has been suppressing the Middle East for many years. On the one hand, the US dollar is vigilant against oil and gold in the currency war, and on the other hand, it is also the suppression of Islam by Christian Judaism in religious wars.
But under such multiple wars, Saudi Arabia is still the United States' largest ally in the Middle East and also provides the United States with a large amount of crude oil. The United States has helped Saudi Arabia suppress domestic and foreign opposition forces from either side, ensuring the existence of this living fossil-like royal class.
There is something in between... The big trick made Qi Tianlin really not dare to wander around at will. At least he did not dare to sow discord before he figured out the actual situation, so as not to make mistakes.
This time, the white robes around him dared not speak. Seeing the king and Prince Faisal and others whispering, and asked a peripheral prince to contact him by phone to inquire about what. The white robes beside Faisal were about to speak, but Qi Tianlin took the initiative to ask: "Please introduce you, please? Sorry, I don't know much about politics. I only recognize His Majesty the King and the Foreign Minister Prince Faisal."
The other party was stuck for a moment, and unexpectedly looked at Faisal helplessly, as if he needed to reorganize his views on Paul: "Prince Faisal was not a foreign minister a few years ago, but now he is the Minister of Finance. I am the Prime Minister Prince Ahmed..."
Qi Tianlin was also surprised, but the ministers under the Saudi king often took turns in this way, and it was not uncommon. In this regard, the UAE leaders are at least elected by the elders of each tribe. They should be a little more democratic, and they should look up to signal the other party to continue talking.
Prince Ahmed's face is stronger than Faisal and more like a prime minister: "We initially agree to your contract plan, but we require your focus on quelling rebellion to start from the capital and three important oil-producing areas, which is twelve days. If we can get one day ahead of time, we will pay an additional $100 million!"
It's worth $100 million in twenty-four hours!
This is almost the highest price contract that Qi Tianlin has received so far!
But compared with the Saudi oil economy with a price of about 10 million barrels per day, which is about one billion US dollars, it is really worth it!
Some oil mining areas have now stopped production, because the workers who are most struggling on the front line of oil production are basically foreign workers. Even if they do not follow the riots, they will at least stop and strike, and they will lose hundreds of millions of dollars every day, not to mention the Saudi side that urgently needs funds when their most important international financial funds are lost.
So the two-pronged approach of the commander and Qi Tianlin at that time was really a trick!
The riot was originally caused by our own people. Qi Tianlin pretended to think seriously for ten seconds and agreed cautiously: "But your national defense and government forces need to fully assist my employees in their work."
Therefore, the Minister of Defense was assigned to the Saudi National Security Committee temporarily established by Qi Tianlin as chairman, and Mr. Paul, who was actually doing it, served as vice chairman.
Qi Tianlin gave his account to receive payment in Zurich, but was rejected by Saudi Arabia. They had a very rare request to hand over the accounts in New York, USA. Qi Tianlin was a little surprised, but he was not embarrassed: "The tax is yours, I want to get the net after-tax income."
This is almost why many international financial transactions like to choose Zurich. Special financial policies and confidential capital flows can guarantee lower taxes. In the United States, it means that a contract project of 1.2 billion must be regulated by the US tax department. The larger the amount, the scarier the tax ratio, and it may be hundreds of millions of dollars in Zurich!
But the Saudis nodded without hesitation and agreed.
Then we arranged for the reconstruction of the defense company and Nebula Media to split it into dozens of small contracts to sign contracts with Saudi Arabia in New York, transfer funds, and even Tom's network company had to take over part of the contract. However, Liu Ziyue was slightly surprised on the phone: "So much? Is it dangerous? You must pay attention to safety." In her opinion, the danger and the income should be proportional, which is a bit like a good wife and mother.
Maruo completely put on his move in his arms: "I have told you to concentrate on doing Middle East business, don't go to Africa where you are poor. Do they have cash? Just give the cash, I'll make a bed to see!"
They all show their image they should have in a proper way. Of course, this series of contacts and hands are actually under the monitoring of relevant American departments.
This is almost unquestionable.
Chapter completed!
