Rebirth of a technological power - Chapter 280 Security service?

Good news always comes one after another.

After four 052D destroyers were put into service, the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI), which China and Europe had successfully signed, finally came into effect after certain revisions. This news made headlines in major Chinese and foreign media.

Once upon a time, the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI) had high hopes.

China and Europe are located at opposite ends of the Eurasian continent and are each other’s important trading partners. There is essentially no fundamental conflict of interest.

One is the largest developing country in the world, and the other is the economy with the largest number of developed countries in the world. They cover a large number of consumers and have broad space for cooperation.

Unfortunately, after the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI) was successfully signed, the pause button was pressed due to some factors.

The win-win situation ended because of a third party.

After several years of hard work, the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI) was launched again and officially came into effect.

There are not so many concessions in terms of conditions with the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI) signed a few years ago.

When Cai Jin saw the news, it was complicated.

When the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI) was successfully signed, Chinese and foreign media believed that China and Europe were working together to achieve win-win cooperation and open up a new era.

Unexpectedly, CEIBS CAI was soon poured cold water on it.

Before the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) came into effect, China significantly expanded its imports from ASEAN, benefiting all ten ASEAN countries, making China the largest trading partner of ASEAN, and the total trade volume between China and ASEAN exceeded that of China. U.S., China-Europe trade!

Now the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI) has finally come into effect again. Although it has only been a few years, things have changed.

In many European countries, the economy is in a sluggish state, debt levels are high, and thunderstorms continue to occur.

The energy crisis has deeply affected the entire Europe, forcing it to deindustrialize. High-end manufacturing continues to migrate, and funds continue to flow out. Coupled with a large amount of financial support and loans, they have been in vain.

The current situation has been completely reversed. It is Europe that needs China more, not China that needs Europe more. Both sides will benefit from cooperation, and will suffer from division.

Thinking again, Cai Jin knew that French, German and other astronauts would soon appear at the Tiangong Space Station.

Friends, we have to make a lot of friends; enemies, we have to make a few!

This world is not all black and white!

But complicated!

Because the human heart itself is complex.

Relations between countries are all based on interests.

The same is true now.

In addition to the China-EU Comprehensive Agreement on Investment (China-EU CAI), new news has once again hit the Chinese and foreign media in the past few days.

After completing the signing of agreements with various Arab League countries, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement was signed with the Arab League as a whole, which directly led to the formation of a win-win economic cooperation relationship between China and the Middle East.

There is no doubt that this will have huge benefits for the settlement of digital renminbi and for Chinese companies to enter the Middle East.

Although real estate is developing at a low speed, the impact on the economy is not devastating, because a large amount of steel bars, cement, etc. are exported to the Middle East to build the Middle East.

Cai Jin even took a breath, feeling that the world was changing so fast.

If you don’t pay attention, it seems like the world has changed.

That kind of rolling momentum is coming, and it seems like no one can stop it.

Against this background, Cai Jin set out for Zhuhai.

Because there are only three days left before the Zhuhai Air Show starts!

Although there are still three days left, countless military fans have already come here, waiting for the exhibition to start.

In fact, before the exhibition started, many people gathered around the exhibition center and took pictures with cameras.

After all, you can still take some pictures while the equipment is being transported, and you don’t have to worry about problems with the photos you take.

After all, it is equipment for display, so there is no leakage issue in terms of appearance.

As for the inside, I couldn’t take any pictures even if I wanted to.

“Hiss, what’s going on? Yingjiang has sent so many planes to participate in the exhibition this time? Is this a strong support for the Zhuhai Air Show? Or is it just here to ruin the show?” The military fans surrounding the convention and exhibition center started to shout. A heated discussion ensued.

There are more than ten F-15 series fighters, in addition to E-3A airborne early warning aircraft and other armed helicopters!

The scale is larger than the previous Zhuhai Air Show.

“No, look clearly. There is a red star there. It’s not Yingjiang’s, it’s ours!” A keen-eyed military fan noticed something was wrong, that was the fuselage, which had a red star printed on it.

It goes without saying that this is not Yingjiang’s plane, but China’s!

what happened?

What happened! ?

Of course, the booth inside is also the focus of discussion among military fans.

Since before, the Lianhe Battalion and the Synthetic Brigade could be sold as a complete package, and considerable results have been achieved. Everyone is looking forward to whether there will be new gadgets this year and whether a bigger contract can be signed!

At this time, the staff at the Aerospace Group were busy setting up the venue. This venue was the story of Nantianmen.

Different from the previous ones, this year’s exhibition will showcase various new weapons and systems. Although they are all new concepts, they will definitely make people excited to see them.

Everyone knows that China has launched a “large-scale strategic airborne platform” construction project, and good news will be released every now and then. It seems that maybe one day when you open your eyes, the Nantianmen will have been built.

On the other side, there is a large booth. Employees of Future Technology Group are also busy setting up the venue. The group will invest a lot of energy and effort in every air show.

This also gave everyone a wealth of experience in participating in air shows.

At this time, Cai Jin had also arrived in Zhuhai.

But he was not in the city, but floating on the sea on a yacht.

On the yacht.

Cai Jin, Ruweli and several others sat on the observation deck on the top floor, drinking juice, red wine, eating seafood and chatting.

The content of the chat will naturally not be about beautiful beauties.

It is about the construction of the Arab coalition and the development of the Arab League.

Ruweli, the commander-in-chief of the Arab coalition, is in charge of hundreds of thousands of Arab coalition troops. He has a high position and is a hero in the Middle East. He stomps his feet and the entire Middle East is shocked.

As for the other people, although they are all in their thirties and forties, they are the core figures of the next generation of Saudi Arabia and other local tycoons, and they are all important princes of a certain country.

For example, one of them is the only son of Prince Alwaleed, who currently holds an important position in the Arab League.

Prince Alwaleed, after all, is almost 70 years old, and is also considering the training of successors.

“Boss Cai, it will take five years for our coalition to be completely built. Just in case, we want you to station us there.” Ruweli said: “You know, there is more than one person who is pointing fingers at us. , they hate us very much and cannot see our rise.”

Cai Jin frowned slightly: “But, Mr. Ruweli, you have to know that we are only a private enterprise, and we do not provide security services.”

“As for the rest, our soldiers are always very cautious.” Cai Jin felt embarrassed.

Things like military contracting companies are legal in Yingjiang’s house.

But it’s different in China. Not to mention other things, banning guns is the social consensus.

If Cai Jin wants to equip more combat robot dogs, he must go through review and approval.

“But, after much thought, only you can help us!” Ruweli said: “As for this, you don’t need to worry. In fact, we came to you because someone passed by you to give us guidance.”

“You can set up a military contracting company in our Arab League, recruit veterans from you, and equip them with weapons and equipment. That’s enough!” Ruweli said.

Cai Jin looked thoughtful.

This order is neither too much nor too little.

There are orders of 30 billion yuan every year, and it is a proper business practice.

It makes perfect sense.

This kind of military contracting company has been around for countless years, such as the famous Blackwater Company!

And here, the security service can have a military port and two military bases.

If there is a military port, it can provide docking, supply and other services for warships. If there is a military base, it can deter some unruly people.

Obviously, there is an expert giving guidance to Ruweli!

As long as Cai Jin is willing to accept this order, there will be nothing wrong with it in every aspect.

Moreover, the profit from this order is still quite generous.

The total orders for ten years are 30 billion yuan per year, and the total contract reaches 300 billion yuan!

Be conscientious, even if the profit is only calculated at 10%, you can make 3 billion yuan a year, and 30 billion yuan in ten years.

The key thing is that there is almost no risk.

Ten thousand people, three thousand fighting mechanical dogs, mechanical bulls, and bionic robots are made by ourselves, so the cost is pitifully low. The expenditure of 10,000 people, even if the per capita annual salary of each security personnel is one million, it will only be only 10 billion yuan a year!

As for whether 10,000 security personnel could be recruited, Cai Jin never considered it.

There is no way, China has too many people!

The most important thing is people!

There are more than 57 million retired soldiers in China, with more than 800,000 retired soldiers every year!

Not to mention recruiting 10,000 security personnel, even recruiting 20,000 or 30,000 people is a piece of cake and can be recruited easily.

What Cai Jin dislikes is that the order is too small, the profit is not high, and it is troublesome!

If something happens to the security personnel in the Middle East, it’s not a big deal if the security personnel’s families bring their children to the company to cause trouble!

But thinking about it, Ruweli’s words were sincere. The United Army was also a major customer of Future Technology Group, and the Arab League was also a major customer of Future Technology Group. Direct refusal would be too unkind.

After thinking for a moment, Cai Jin finally nodded slowly and agreed.

Ruweili and the others expressed their happiness when they saw Cai Jin agreeing.

Sometimes I am so helpless that I have to beg others to give me money.

The customer is God, but sometimes that doesn’t really apply.

“Mr. Ruweli, I wonder if there are any restrictions on the weapons and equipment of security personnel?” Since he agreed, Cai Jin naturally wanted to discuss it in depth.

“There is no limit. Naturally, the more advanced the weapons and equipment, the better. We only have one condition: at least 10,000 personnel and at least 3,000 bionic robots.” Ruweli said: “We all believe in you and believe that you will not harm us.” us!”

Cai Jin was speechless.

This trust is too great.

“Then, what I want to say is that you may have to help with the visa issue for security personnel going to the Middle East.” Cai Jin said.

After thinking about it, it seems that this is the only question left.

“No way, Boss Cai, don’t you know that visa exemption has been officially launched between us?” Ruweli was a little surprised.

Visa-free! ?

Cai Jin was a little confused.

When did this happen?

I do not know how! ?

Later, Cai Jin started to understand, and then he realized that it happened not long ago.

At that time, his son happened to be born. He was so focused on his child that he had no time to pay attention to the news.

“By the way, I almost forgot!” Ruweli patted his head: “Tikrit, come and tell Boss Cai.”

Tikrit, a Saudi prince.

“Boss Cai, it’s like this. We want to know whether your company has technical reserves in seawater desalination technology,” Tikrit said.

Desalination technology! ?

Cai Jin was stunned!

He had never thought about this.

In fact, seawater desalination technology did not appear recently. It is a dream that humans have pursued for hundreds of years. As early as more than 250 years ago, the British royal family offered a reward for an economical and cost-effective seawater desalination method.

Since the 1950s, seawater desalination technology has accelerated its development as the water resource crisis has intensified. Among more than 20 desalination technologies that have been developed, distillation, electrodialysis, and reverse osmosis have all reached industrial scale. production level and are widely used around the world.

Currently, more than 100 scientific research institutions in more than 10 countries in the world are conducting research on seawater desalination, and there are hundreds of seawater desalination facilities with different structures and capacities in operation.

A modern large-scale desalination plant can produce thousands, tens of thousands or even nearly one million tons of fresh water every day.

The cost of desalinated water is constantly decreasing. In some countries, it has been reduced to the same price as tap water. The amount of desalinated water in some areas has even reached the scale of national and city water supply.

At present, the average comprehensive cost of seawater desalination equipment is estimated at 7,000 yuan/ton per day, and the comprehensive investment cost of a set of 100,000 tons/day seawater desalination equipment is approximately 700 million yuan!

As for seawater desalination technology, it is needed by many countries and regions and has a vast market. There is no doubt that the Middle East is the most in short supply and the most urgent need.

After all, the climate in the Middle East is hot and dry, and the desert area is vast. It has a tropical desert climate, a Mediterranean climate, and a temperate continental climate, with perennial drought and little rain.

If you want to develop, you cannot do without water!

Seawater desalination technology is the most widely used in the Middle East. The Middle East accounts for more than half of the world’s total annual seawater desalination.

For example, Saudi Arabia has been the world’s largest producer of desalinated seawater for many years, with its output accounting for approximately 20% of the world’s total!

The total water production of desalination devices in the five countries of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain alone accounts for about 45% of the global total.
