Chapter 1047 The dark-faced Boss Yang
Seeing that Yang Chen didn't mean to change his mind, Prince Hassar didn't continue to persuade him that the arms business of British Aerospace Corporation in the Middle East was all led by him.
Now that the Iran and Iraq wars are over, he, the middleman, will not make much money.
Therefore, no matter what decision Yang Chen makes, it will not affect him.
Of course, if Yang Chen exploited Iraq's arrears to exploit oil in Iraq, it would be another matter.
People all over the world say that the arms business is hugely profitable, but in fact, selling arms and selling oil, the former is hardly worth mentioning.
The huge profits of oil are beyond the imagination of outsiders.
Unfortunately, Boss Yang is really worried about Iraq and the Saddam's mother brother. Even if he knew that he had a gold mine in his hand, he would quickly sell it.
It's not that he is timid, and anyone who understands the truth will probably be reluctant to go into this muddy water.
Imagine that he is going to invest in Iraq now. After two years, he has built everything and started oil production. At that time, when the Gulf War broke out, would he still have the intention to produce oil?
The war started, and when the two sides fought, any cannonball could blow all the construction back to before liberation.
Don't make money, and finally lose the bottom line.
British Aerospace is not owned by his big boss Yang, he can't always give it blood transfusions. Before relying on the Iran-Iraq war, British Aerospace turned a profit with a large amount of arms trade.
Next, after the account is recovered, the British Aerospace Corporation can completely get rid of the previous loss-making situation. With the gradual prosperity of the global shipping industry, the British Aerospace Corporation only needs to continue to transform towards the civilian side, plus the Yang's consortium. Support, it won't be too bad in the future.
If the British Aerospace Corporation can further cooperate with the inland, then with the huge market demand of the inland, it is not impossible for the British Aerospace Corporation to become one of the world's largest military giants in a few decades.
"By the way, Prince, has the Saudi government made a decision on the construction of the communication network?"
"Press?" Hearing that Yang Chen suddenly shifted the topic to the communication network, Prince Hassal shook his head regretfully: "Not yet, the king is still a little hesitant, and I'm afraid it won't be possible to make a specific decision in a short time."
With the commercialization of CDMA technology by Qualcomm and Hong Kong Telephone Company, the Saudi government could not help but have a headache.
The two sides in Europe and the United States are fighting, and it is not each other that is embarrassing, but a group of countries that cannot help themselves. Don't look at the style of the world police in the United States in later generations, everyone is afraid of it.
But in this era, before the huge polar bear of the Soviet Union fell, Europe and the United States were partners, not a master-slave relationship.
Therefore, the competition between Europe and the United States is very fierce at this stage. Just look at the island countries. No matter how crazy the island countries are in later generations, they will not dare to buy the entire United States and occupy the United States peacefully.
In the future, the island nation dared not, but now the island nation dares.
Even a younger brother like an island country dares to blatantly challenge the bottom line of the United States, not to mention European countries.
Yang Chen felt that this matter would have to wait until the Gulf War was over and the polar bear fell before turning around. When will America's capital be truly unimpeded in the world without the old enemy of the Soviet Union.
After thinking about it, Yang Chen couldn't help but open his mouth and said, "Since this matter cannot be decided in a short period of time, then let it go and leave it alone. See if there are any other countries in the Middle East that are interested in communication networks besides Saudi Arabia."
Although there are quite a few staff members in the Yang family consortium in the Middle East, compared to Prince Hassar, they still lack a little in terms of personal connections.
Prince Hassar listened and couldn't help laughing: "I am in contact with Kuwait recently, and they are very interested in the communication network you have built in Xiangjiang."
Xiangjiang, because Yang Chen didn't want money to build a signal base station, and if the signal is good, don't want it, plus the newly launched mobile phone from the Xiangjiang Telephone Company, the two added up, and suddenly one plus one was greater than two.
As expected by Yang Chen before, the number of mobile phone customers in Xiangjiang has increased significantly, more than ten times the number of users who used Big Brother before, and this number of users is still growing continuously.
According to the current user growth rate, within two years, the penetration rate of mobile phones in Hong Kong will reach the current number of home phones.
When Prince Hasar spoke, he didn't notice that Boss Yang's face was completely darkened.
'Kuwait' Yang Chen's mouth twitched fiercely.
At this time, let alone he took the initiative to send it to the door, even if the Kuwaiti government begged him to come over, he would not pay attention to the other party.
Kuwait is a small country rich. That’s right, if the Hong Kong Telephone Company can expand its business, it will definitely be able to make a return in a very short period of time.
But now is not the time.
Now that place is a powder keg. When he built the signal base station, the Iraqi army almost drove past.
As for Prince Hasar, Boss Yang no longer has any hope for him. He even doubts whether Hasar lost his original position of power after the death of the old king, whether even his minimum IQ has declined.
As the so-called bystander is clear, Saudi Arabia, relying on the asylum of the United States, has been sitting and watching the battles between countries in the Middle East for a long time. As a prince who once had the right to inherit, Hassar should have a good political experience and vision.
After so many years of war between Iran and Iraq, Kuwait, a doll with golden bricks, wants to take a bite of it.
Other countries do not do it because there is no chance. At the same time, Kuwait is surrounded by Saudi Arabia, Iran and Iraq. Even if outsiders want to, they are powerless.
However, for Iraq, the occupation of Kuwait has many benefits. Once Iraq occupies Kuwait, it will not only reduce a large amount of arrears, but also occupy the rich oil resources in Kuwait and speed up the domestic economic recovery.
Of course, the most important point is that if Iraq occupies Kuwait, then it will be able to solve the problem that it has long sought and cannot reach the sea.
The three Gulf countries, Saudi Arabia and Iran, and Iraq, Iran and Saudi Arabia have long coastlines, and there are as many ports as you want.
Independence of Iraq, not only does not have a long coastline, but the nearest sea port is also occupied by the small country of Kuwait.
Just because Kuwait, a small country the size of a palm, made Iraq a landlocked country without a sea.
Under such circumstances, in the face of Iraq's military expansion to an unstoppable level, everyone should realize that Kuwait, a small country that blocks Iraq's only access to the sea, is now very delicate to leave the country. Avoid disaster.
In this case, is it not a problem to go to Kuwait to invest a lot of money?
