Chapter 1069: The Magical Boss Qiao
Dvali saw that Joe Ga did not reject his request this time, and he completely relaxed.
After admitting his shortcomings, Dvali felt relieved instead!
Faced with Joe's question, Dvali smiled and said, "My cousin, Prince Salman, is planning to reorganize all Shah's forces except the navy next year. I might become the deputy chief of staff or the deputy commander of the army.
This depends on the outcome of the operations. Personally, I am more inclined towards the deputy commander of the army position now, because I feel I've learned a bit from you.
The combat effectiveness of an army sometimes isn't just about the quality of equipment; people are more important!"
Joe Ga listened, gave a thumbs up, and said with a smile: "Thinking like this shows you've got the idea. According to modern management models, whether it's a business or the military, generating combat power requires having the right person in the right place.
Your prince soldiers are really not suited for the front line. If I were you, I'd buy a production line for a combined reconnaissance and combat UAV, then let those prince soldiers stay behind the lines 'playing games.'
Leave the front line to the real warriors, give them enough pay, respect them, and provide all the logistical resources to ensure their safety."
Joe Ga grinned and continued, "I have a few good friends at AVIC, and the Rainbow UAVs you're using now are pretty good. I'll work something out, and buying the production line shouldn't be a problem.
The military reformation is a complex task, but adding another military branch and expanding it conventionally can greatly help you exert power within the military."
Dvali didn't expect Joe Ga to suddenly become so enthusiastic. It took him a while to understand what Joe Ga meant.
Dvali's father is the current old King's brother, and their family is very close to the old King.
It's not easy for a newcomer to gain power in the military...
But if the UAV industry can be separated and the UAV combat unit standardized and expanded, it can not only place one's own associates without touching the interests of existing powerholders but also directly expand influence.
Moreover, a UAV production line can allow Dvali to directly enter Shah's military supply chain.
Firstly, it's a good business, and secondly, if Dvali can control this company, he can extend his influence outward.
Relying on Shah itself and the rights and benefits derived from strong purchasing power, he can develop his own circle of friends.
This is much more upscale than other princes who deal with a bunch of mercenaries for profit!
There are many princes in Shah, around 2000 in the core circle, and they control about 600 billion US Dollars of Shah's overseas assets.
If Dvali can break away, use his own money to build a UAV factory, he can break away from other princes' patterns and form a connection with the world's largest UAV producing country.
That's China, and if Dvali can really achieve that, they'll certainly be willing to support him within permissible conditions.
It took Dvali a while to figure these things out, and suddenly he felt enlightened.
After breaking away from royal family thinking, Dvali suddenly realized that solving problems doesn't necessarily rely solely on power; sometimes a simple detour can yield better results.
If he follows Joe Ga's advice, Shah's combat power will be enhanced, Dvali's influence will increase, and power will naturally come into his hands...
And the backlash created during this power transfer is relatively small, which is what's most important!
Once again feeling Joe Ga's unique thinking pattern, a relaxed Dvali suddenly shook his head and said, "Hu Lang, you're a magical person!
If possible, I hope to become true friends with you...
Just like Sayyid and Al Sani, friends who can consult you on any problems!"
Joe Ga laughed heartily, reached out and shook Dvali's hand, saying, "Actually, becoming my friend is really easy...
First, we can have a common goal, and then remain sincere, and you'll find I'm a friend's best friend!"
Dvali listened, smiled, and nodded, saying, "I understand...
Hu Lang, help me inquire about the production line's matters, I can invest myself to build a UAV production plant within Shah; are you interested in a stake?
Currently, Shah's demand for UAVs is huge, it's a good business!"
Looking at the enlightened Dvali, Joe Ga smiled and said, "Your factory is only for Shah itself, I won't join in, because no one likes to play the role of vampire.
As long as you can entrust the production line negotiations to me, I can gain a lot of benefits from AVIC, that's enough for me."
Seeing Dvali's slightly disappointed look, Joe Ga laughed and said, "Old pal, you forgot again; what you need is not a shareholder, but a friend!
You can now tell me the budget you're comfortable with, and I'll make a call to ask..."
Dvali listened, thought carefully, and then said, "Considering the help UAVs can provide and the purchase demand, just the production line and supply chain contracts, I think 400 to 600 million is an appropriate figure."
Joe Ga listened, nodded in agreement, then shook his head, saying, "Some things can't be achieved just by money alone.
You need to make AVIC feel they can't meet your needs before it's logical to propose production line needs, and also require Shah's government to endorse, to deepen cooperation between the two.
The production line itself isn't worth much; what's valuable is the transfer of technology and supply chain."
Dvali isn't a political novice like Hamandan; he understands what Joe Ga means, but there are still some details he's not quite clear about...
"How can we get AVIC to relent?"
Joe Ga spread his hands and said, "You've already used the Rainbow UAVs; how do you find them?"
Dvali nodded decisively and said, "Very useful. Although the Rainbow UAV's take-off weight is only less than 360 kilograms, they have indeed provided us with a lot of help.
In the past few years, we lost nearly 20 Apaches in Yemen, and the emergence of drones has filled the air control gap caused by the destruction of armed helicopters."
Joe Ga listened, clapped his hands with a smile, and said, "Then that's decided. You give me the authorization, and I'll help you procure 100 Rainbow UAVs. After we squeeze AVIC's production capacity, we can then propose the acquisition of the production line.
I guarantee that I'll help you buy them cheaper than you could on your own..."
Saying this, Joe Ga looked at the nodding Dvali and said, "Don't be so quick to nod. After I've communicated with AVIC, you need to personally lead a team to China...
First, arrange for someone to learn, and second, have a serious talk with the people there.
You need to make people feel you are a target for long-term cooperation. Only then can I strive to help you acquire a new production line in the future."
Dvali was surprised and said, "A new production line?"
Joe Ga laughed and said, "The Rainbow 4B can only carry so much ammunition; how can that meet your needs?
Buddy, if you want to use drones as an entry point into the military, you can't just focus on the Rainbow 4.
China also has the Twin-tailed Scorpion, which has a much larger payload than anything Turkey has to offer.
A 1.5-ton payload is outstanding in the realm of drones, whether it's for electronic equipment to work with anti-radiation missiles or directly dropping bombs, it can pose a significant threat to the enemy.
This device is on a different level than Rainbow 4B and is the most suitable combat aircraft for you.
Brother, you have over a thousand fighter jets at home; how many of them can actually take off now?
With all the protection money paid, is your air strike capability really reliable?
As a friend, I think you can completely break out of the Shah's military system and form a high-end UAV strike force.
This is a brand-new track, and until you've cleaned up internally, no one can compete with you!
If you can use UAVs to galvanize the Air Force, your cousin, Prince Salman, would definitely be pleased to see it!"
Upon hearing this, Dvali looked at Mr. Qiao with a tingling scalp...
While he was still debating whether to vie for the position of Deputy Chief of Staff or Deputy Commander of the Army, Joe Ga, in just a few sentences, outlined a completely new path for him.
No need to clash with those military veterans, and establish an independent force.
By then, this non-air force, non-army UAV unit will become the target everyone vies for, also allowing Dvali to enter Prince Salman's core circle, and his power will naturally rise with the tide.
Transform from a power-seizing intruder into a sought-after figure, all it takes is a shift in thinking!
The most interesting part is that this new track is entirely feasible!
The combination of the two types of UAVs is enough to cover the current needs of the Shah's military.
A wealth of achievements and awards will easily stir up the originally lackluster Shah Air Force's combat motivation.
With so many foreseeable benefits, what's there to hesitate about!
Seize the moment when Prince Salman is consolidating power, and once the Shah is stable internally, Dvali will become an indispensable member.
The rewards are simply unparalleled!
Having thoroughly understood, Dvali firmly shook Mr. Qiao's arm twice, making both small boats rock slightly...
"Hu Lang, help me!"
Joe Ga patted Dvali's hand with a smile and said, "I suggest your family secure the Rainbow 4 production line. In the future, if your cousin tries to restrain you, you can hand over the Rainbow production line or collaborate with your cousin to establish a Twin-tailed Scorpion production line.
Always leave yourself plenty of room to maneuver, and you'll remain invincible!"
Saying this, Joe Ga touched his chin and said with a smile, "Buddy, remember to pay the consulting fee later. I spent a lot of brain cells coming up with this idea.
The consulting fee must be worthy of my effort..."
Suddenly enlightened, Dvali smiled and said, "No problem, how about 1 million US Dollars?
I'll personally invest one million US Dollars to establish a charity fund. This money can be used for training doctors and teachers in Sangha Town."
Hearing this, Joe Ga decisively took out his phone to call Li Weiguo from AVIC...
He gave a thumbs up to the newly enlightened Dvali and said with a smile, "On behalf of 4 million people in Central Africa, I thank you for your sponsorship...
In the future, every hospital in Sangha Town will have a 'Dvali Building'. People there will remember you!"
Dvali suddenly discovered that obtaining happiness is really easy!
