5: Chapter 5 The Best Sales Targets for Anti-Aircraft Missiles
Li Yi took the agency agreement and began to read it carefully.
There wasn't much content, and Li Yi finished reading it quickly.
Generally, there were no traps. After verifying some terms, Li Yi signed the agency agreement.
Lin Shan took the agreement and brought out some documents, saying, "These are the materials that President Li needs to prepare. Once you have them ready, bring them directly to our company."
Under Lin Shan's guidance, Li Yi understood the various materials he needed to prepare.
Many materials could be entrusted to the Ruifeng Business Consulting Company to help prepare; there weren't many that Li Yi himself needed to provide.
After Lin Shan confirmed that Li Yi understood, she said, "Then let's stop here for today. Once you are ready, we will continue the follow-up work at our company?"
Li Yi didn't intend to stay longer, so he nodded and said, "Okay. I will come to your company tomorrow or the day after."
Lin Shan packed up and left the Shangpin Cafe.
Li Yi returned directly to his rented apartment and began preparing the various materials.
...
Glass House.
Located near the capital of Syria.
This is the overseas headquarters of the Persian Lion State National Guard.
The Quds Force is a unit of the Persian Lion State National Guard.
It is used to assist Syria in resisting aggression and suppressing rebel organizations.
However.
Just last night, a weapons depot base was attacked by Israel, causing significant losses.
Not only were many military bases and weapons and equipment destroyed, but there were also some casualties.
This situation gave Major General Rahim, the person in charge of Glass House, a headache.
Since Iran began aiding Syria, Major General Rahim had personally led his troops to establish Glass House.
As the overseas headquarters of the Persian Lion State National Guard, it comprehensively coordinated military support for Syria.
Over these many years, he had dealt with many attacks targeting Glass House and various military bases.
But every time, it resulted in base losses and casualties, mainly because there was no way to completely defend against airstrikes from warplanes of Israel or the USA.
Such situations happened repeatedly, once causing Major General Rahim to almost be dismissed. Fortunately, his backers were powerful, and he had achieved good results, so he had continued to serve as the head of the Persian Lion State National Guard's overseas headquarters.
After ordering the repair of base facilities and the treatment of the wounded, Major General Rahim had been considering how to improve the defense systems of Glass House and various military bases, especially against airstrikes.
However, the quantity of Iran's domestically produced anti-aircraft missiles was insufficient, always leaving defensive loopholes.
In addition, the performance of existing anti-aircraft missiles was not particularly advanced; even if enemy warplanes were detected, it was already too late, making it difficult to immediately put the anti-aircraft missiles into launch status and fire them in time to shoot down the invading enemy planes.
It wasn't that Major General Rahim hadn't proposed purchasing a batch of anti-aircraft missiles from abroad, but the quantity of anti-aircraft missiles that could be purchased was insufficient, and their performance was similar to that of domestically produced ones, which simply could not solve the predicament facing Glass House.
The helpless Major General Rahim could only pin his hopes on early warning of enemy warplanes, giving the deployed anti-aircraft missiles more response time.
At this moment, his phone rang. After answering, he heard that it was Mannila, the broker who had introduced arms procurement to Glass House.
Mannila had finished reading the data on the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missile sent by Li Yi and, after understanding the quotation, had pondered it for a while.
Recommending this new type of anti-aircraft missile directly to the high-ranking military officials of Iran would be difficult to gain their support without practical combat examples.
The possibility of selling the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missile within Iran was very low.
Then he could only sell it directly to some units of Iran.
The units dispatched by Iran abroad, specifically the Quds Force of the Persian Lion State National Guard in Syria, were the best sales target.
They were directly facing attacks from Israel, and Syria had been in the midst of war, lacking many anti-aircraft missiles.
Mannila had been in contact with Major General Rahim, the person in charge of Glass House, and had introduced some arms dealers to him, reaching some arms deals.
Without delaying any time, Mannila immediately contacted Major General Rahim.
"Major General Rahim, Mannila greets you. May Allah bless you. Long time no see!"
"Hello! I am very busy now, is there anything?"
Mannila had wanted to build rapport with Major General Rahim before getting to the main point, but upon hearing that Major General Rahim was busy, he rushed straight to the point and said, "I saw in the news that our base was hit by an airstrike. Is everything okay?"
Major General Rahim thought he was just asking out of courtesy, so he had to say, "The situation is still under control; there are no major issues."
"The airstrikes from Israel are becoming more and more rampant. I have an anti-aircraft missile I would like to recommend to you. I wonder if Glass House has any need for it?"
"You have only provided army weapons and equipment before; didn't you say there were no anti-aircraft missiles for sale?"
"I have found a new arms dealer now who can provide various anti-aircraft missiles. Are you interested in learning more?"
Major General Rahim was just worrying about the lack of anti-aircraft missiles. Upon hearing that there were anti-aircraft missiles for sale, he immediately said, "Show me the performance of the anti-aircraft missiles, and I will see if it is suitable."
Mannila heard that Major General Rahim's tone was a bit urgent and said, "In terms of performance, it is much higher than the anti-aircraft missiles produced by Iran, and even a bit higher than the Stinger anti-aircraft missiles of the USA and others."
"Is it really that advanced?" Major General Rahim was a bit incredulous.
"The anti-aircraft missile data provided to me by the arms dealer is indeed quite high in performance. I asked the arms dealer, and he confirmed that it is real data."
"Which country is willing to sell these anti-aircraft missiles?"
"The one who contacted me is Chinese, but I don't know if it is provided by China. I looked at the anti-aircraft missile models announced by China, and their performance is also a bit worse than what the arms dealer provided."
Upon learning it was China, Major General Rahim was somewhat skeptical.
"You send the data on the anti-aircraft missiles to me first. If it is suitable, I will contact you again."
"I will bring the data to you directly and show it to you on the spot."
"Okay. We'll talk when you arrive."
Major General Rahim didn't say anything more, hung up the phone, shook his head, and muttered, "How is that possible? It's not like China hasn't sold weapons to us before, but they have all been low-end weapons and equipment; there are basically no advanced ones. Better not get my hopes up too high. Focusing on deploying to deal with airstrikes is the real priority."
Mannila looked at the hung-up phone, knowing that Major General Rahim did not believe him.
However, Mannila still had some confidence in Li Yi's previous deals.
The police and military training equipment delivered previously had not shown any damage to date.
For now, let's just believe that the Tianlei Series Anti-Aircraft Missile that Li Yi can provide is indeed without problems.
Mannila did not delay, directly bought a ticket, and flew to Damascus, the capital of Syria.
