Chapter 465

~9 min read 1,763 words

At the previous Black Steel Industry press conference, the Scorpion and the Explorer were unveiled under the gaze of the whole world, but at that time, Ni Yongyao did not choose to sell them externally, merely showing off the strength of Black Steel Industry.

After this period of accumulation, the number of Scorpion armed helicopters has greatly increased, and it is now sufficient to launch foreign trade.

This bombshell news instantly made the entire exhibition hall boil over, especially the representatives of various arms companies, who were scrambling, fearing they wouldn't be able to grab one.

And the reason they were so urgent was for the super performance of the Scorpion armed helicopter, intending to purchase it for reverse engineering and then upgrade their own products.

"Those interested in purchasing can submit orders to Black Steel Industry after the press conference."

Sophia said.

Afterwards, Ni Yongyao announced that the press conference was over, and left the exhibition hall with Huohu and Sophia.

Ni family manor.

Study.

"Mr. Ni, Lockheed Martin CEO Lei Nade wants to visit you."

Huohu reported to Ni Yongyao.

"Not seeing him."

Ni Yongyao smoked a cigar and said casually.

Before this, Ni Yongyao had already rejected a large number of visitors; after the press conference, various arms companies and forces all wanted to buy a batch of Black Steel Industry products, whether it was the suicide drone, the Striker man-portable missile, the Scorpion armed helicopter, or the Explorer all-terrain military vehicle, all were peak works in their respective fields, and were snatched up by everyone.

It's just that they wouldn't understand that Ni Yongyao holding this press conference was not as simple as just making some money.

From beginning to end, this press conference was bait cast out by Ni Yongyao, all to wait for specific fish to take the hook; before this, Ni Yongyao naturally had no interest in seeing others.

An hour later.

"Mr. Ni, a representative from the Northern Peninsula military wants to visit you."

Huohu said.

"Let him come over."

Ni Yongyao raised an eyebrow and said, finally waiting for the desired fish to bite the hook.

"Yes."

Huohu nodded and left the office.

Soon he returned again, followed by a middle-aged man wearing a Northern Peninsula military uniform, with some vicissitudes on his face, and his rank was Colonel.

"Mr. Ni, hello."

Sheng Wengan stood still in front of Ni Yongyao and nodded in greeting; he was also somewhat surprised in his heart that he could see Ni Yongyao, and he also knew that before him, he didn't know how many people had come to visit, but they had all been rejected.

"Sit."

Ni Yongyao smiled and pointed to the sofa opposite.

Sheng Wengan was somewhat flattered; although he held the rank of Colonel, he didn't dare to put on any airs in front of Ni Yongyao at all. After all, coming to Hong Kong this time, Sheng Wengan was actually carrying a mission, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was begging Ni Yongyao.

"Mr. Ni, I also attended the previous press conference, and I am very interested in your company's latest products. I wonder if you can sell a batch to us? I think Mr. Ni should have heard about the situation on the peninsula; your company's weapons are very important to us."

Sheng Wengan didn't beat around the bush, and as soon as he came up, he spoke earnestly and stated his needs.

"I opened the company to do business; now that there is business at the door, how could I refuse?"

Ni Yongyao said.

"That would be great."

Hearing Ni Yongyao say this, Sheng Wengan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, then took out a notebook from his pocket, opened it to look at the contents, and said: "Mr. Ni, we are most interested in the Scorpion armed helicopter and the Striker man-portable missile. I wonder what the specific price is?"

"Scorpion armed helicopter, 50 million; Striker man-portable missile, 100,000."

Huohu replied.

"Is this price in Hong Kong dollars?"

Sheng Wengan asked.

"Hong Kong dollars? No, of course it's US dollars."

Ni Yongyao said with a smile.

Hearing this price, Sheng Wengan, although prepared, was still dumbfounded.

However, Sheng Wengan also knew that 50 million US dollars for one Scorpion armed helicopter was definitely worth more than the price, and its significance on the battlefield was far from being comparable to 50 million US dollars.

The same was true for the Striker man-portable missile; for only 100,000 US dollars, it could pose a huge threat to tanks or helicopters, so no matter how you calculate it, it was a cost-effective deal.

Not long after, Sheng Wengan gritted his teeth and ordered a batch of Scorpions and Strikers, and also purchased some Explorer military vehicles; as for the suicide drones, he did not purchase any.

It wasn't that he didn't want them, but that he really had no budget left; just purchasing the Scorpions almost emptied all of Sheng Wengan's budget.

But these were all worth it, which could be seen from the smile on Sheng Wengan's face when signing the contract; he was confident that with this batch of weapons and equipment, the subsequent offensive against the Southern Peninsula would be even smoother.

The Northern Peninsula's army itself was far superior to the Southern Peninsula in terms of morale; the only gap was in equipment, as there was a full generation gap between the two sides. After all, the Southern Peninsula relied on the old Americans, so their equipment was definitely not bad.

And now that the Northern Peninsula had obtained more advanced weapons from Ni Yongyao, what the situation would be like was simple and clear.

"Mr. Ni, we will always remember your kindness."

After the contract was signed, Sheng Wengan said excitedly, shaking Ni Yongyao's hand.

"I wish you success in your first battle."

Ni Yongyao said.

After Sheng Wengan left, Ni Yongyao leaned on the sofa, a playful smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Selling weapons to the Northern Peninsula was naturally not because Ni Yongyao had a sudden burst of kindness; there were plenty of people outside who wanted to buy, and as long as the word was spread, the warehouse would be filled with orders immediately.

The real reason was that Ni Yongyao wanted the Northern Peninsula to beat the Southern Peninsula until it hurt and was afraid, using this to pave the way for Ni Capital to enter the Southern Peninsula later.

Ni Yongyao's goal had always been the Southern Peninsula, but he had taken a slight detour due to the major chaebols and the complex market environment.

When the Southern Peninsula was beaten up by the Northern Peninsula and was in a panic, that would be the moment for Ni Yongyao to appear.

By then, coupled with Han Qiangzhi's internal operations, it wouldn't be Ni Capital wanting to enter the Southern Peninsula, but the Southern Peninsula begging Ni Capital to come over.

And what Ni Yongyao needed to do next was to wait and see, waiting for the Southern Peninsula to be unable to hold on.

A few days later, the development of things was not much different from what Ni Yongyao expected.

Having obtained advanced weapons, the Northern Peninsula beat the Southern Peninsula until they were crying for their parents, retreating steadily.

This change was beyond the expectations of the Southern Peninsula's high command; they originally thought that with the old Americans' weapons and equipment, dealing with the north would not be easy, but it would definitely be an advantage on their side, but they didn't expect Black Steel International to sell weapons to the Northern Peninsula at this juncture.

And whether it was the Scorpion armed helicopter or the Striker man-portable missile, the performance was very powerful, and the Southern Peninsula's helicopters and tanks were scrapped batch after batch.

After losing the equipment advantage, the strength of the Southern Peninsula's army was immediately exposed; they had no decent will to fight at all, and almost collapsed at the first touch.

This day, Ni Yongyao received a call from Han Qiangzhi.

"Mr. Ni, the plan can begin."

Han Qiangzhi said, his words carrying some irrepressible excitement; even he, when thinking about the power he could obtain after the plan succeeded, found it hard to control himself.

"Over this period of time, as the north continues to advance, those people in the Blue House are like ants on a hot pot; by now, they are probably almost unable to hold on."

Han Qiangzhi said; as a high-ranking official in the Seoul Prosecutor's Office, Han Qiangzhi was definitely one of the best-informed people in the Southern Peninsula.

"No rush, wait for them to speak first."

Ni Yongyao said lightly.

"I have to say, Mr. Ni's methods are still powerful."

Han Qiangzhi said with a smile, while feeling fortunate; it was lucky that when his subordinate Cui Qingchen mentioned Ni Yongyao to him, he agreed immediately, otherwise where would he find such a good partner.

Just by looking at the daily war reports, Han Qiangzhi could understand how strong the Black Steel Industry in Ni Yongyao's hands was.

In the blink of an eye, another few days passed.

Watching the Northern Peninsula advance triumphantly, the Southern Peninsula's high command could no longer hold on and sent representatives to Hong Kong again.

In fact, when they first discovered that the Northern Peninsula possessed Scorpion armed helicopters, the Southern Peninsula had sent people to communicate with Ni Yongyao, wanting to ban Black Steel Industry from selling weapons to the Northern Peninsula, or at least sell them to the Southern Peninsula.

However, these proposals were ignored by Ni Yongyao, and afterwards, one representative after another from the Southern Peninsula received the same treatment.

The status of the representative sent by the Southern Peninsula this time was much higher than before, and he was considered a high-level figure in the Blue House, all to have a good talk with Ni Yongyao; after all, if things continued like this, the Southern Peninsula would really be in danger.

Ni family manor.

In the courtyard.

"Mr. Ni, nice to meet you, I am Yu Dahe."

Yu Dahe said, extending his hand to Ni Yongyao.

"Sit."

Ni Yongyao shook hands with Yu Dahe and pointed to the seat on the side.

"Coming here this time, I am representing the peninsula to talk to Mr. Ni about the war situation. Our side hopes that Mr. Ni can stop selling weapons to the north."

Yu Dahe said straight to the point.
