Return to 78: Why are all the Americans panicking about doing scientific research?

This issue is also the issue that everyone is most concerned about.

Lin Kaifeng described the desert area as a treasure trove of riches.

The princes and nobles in the desert are all a bunch of brainless prodigals.

When I see good things, I don’t consider the quality at all and just buy as much as I can.

Lin Kaifeng smiled calmly and said, "Any business will encounter competitors, just like the branch we established in cooperation with Best Buy Group. As soon as the products arrived in the United States, they were immediately attacked by Japanese electrical appliance companies."

"Until now, the price war in the United States is still ongoing, but as the saying goes, when two brave men meet in a narrow road, the braver one wins."

"The West has its own plans, and we have our own response plans."

Without personally experiencing the tyranny of the desert tycoons, leaders of various departments in the country and ordinary people still have no concrete concept of how rich the desert areas are.

It was not until a few years later that the Dragon Kingdom and a desert country conducted an unprecedented business.

Only then did Longguo realize what kind of extraordinary existence the desert tycoons were.

Lin Kaifeng, who participated in the missile project, had access to a declassified document.

Initially, the military planned to sell this powerful weapon to a desert tycoon for 10 million Dragon Country coins.

Never imagined.

The desert tycoon treated the Dragon Country representative's extended finger as a coin worth 100 million, and the settlement was in US dollars.

Just like that, the big killer deal worth 300 million Dragon Country Currency ended up with 3 billion US dollars.

In the previous few years, Longguo's military industry made a lot of money by exporting arms to war-torn countries in desert areas.

After a decade of war, the military industry cleared out a large amount of inventory.

They also gained tens of billions of development funds from this war.

Simply exporting weapons to desert areas is far from enough to promote the country's economic development.

In addition to exporting weapons, Lin Kaifeng also exports various civilian goods.

Use other countries' money to expand your own power and develop Dragon Country's scientific research and technology.

While Lin Kaifeng was holding the meeting, representatives from various industrial ministries who had returned to the guesthouse were also holding a small meeting.

"Old Zhao, do you think that letting Northern Machinery Company serve as our civilian representative to go to the desert area to conduct business with desert countries and promote further ties with these countries through business exchanges will have unexpected results?"

In the room, Wang Changsheng, the Minister of the First Ministry of Machine Building, was smoking and talking with a middle-aged man in his fifties.

The man smoked his cigarette silently.

By promoting official exchanges through commercial dealings, the relationship between the Dragon Kingdom and the desert countries will be gradually improved.

It's a feasible approach, but...

The man threw the cigarette to the ground and stamped it out, saying, "But we should be prepared for the worst. If the Northern Machinery Company is suppressed by other countries, we may be unable to do anything about it."

Deputy Minister Zhao from the Third Ministry of Machine Building raised his head and said.

"The geopolitical situation in the desert region is changing in an unprecedented way. First, the United States reestablished friendly relations with a group of desert countries, and then the Soviet Union brazenly dispatched nearly 100,000 troops to invade a country of strategic value."

"Affected by the Soviet Union, Persia, which was at odds with us, went to war with its neighboring countries."

"War has become the main theme in the desert. Under such circumstances, will our enterprises' entry into the desert arouse the vigilance of the two superpowers in the East and the West?"

"It is certain that he will encounter troubles, but I think with Comrade Lin Kaifeng's intelligence and vision, he will be able to properly handle any problem he encounters."

Wang Changsheng said confidently.

"I think he should give it a try. Even if he fails, it won't have a big impact on the country or our several industrial ministries. But if he succeeds, many difficult situations will be solved in another way."

"Northern Machinery Company enters the desert market, bringing not only goods, but also the sincerity of our Dragon Country and our attitude towards foreign affairs."

Several major industrial ministries are directly under the highest authorities.

A core department that is second only to one person and above countless people.

The ministers and deputy ministers of the eight major industrial ministries are all familiar with this information that ordinary people are not aware of.

In the 50s, Longguo established diplomatic relations with several desert countries.

At the same time, huge amounts of oil resources were discovered in the desert.

The two major powers, the United States and the Soviet Union, immediately turned their attention to the desert area, trying to control the oil in the region.

The two countries are fighting to the death for oil and natural gas.

And on some things, they have a high degree of tacit understanding.

There are concerns about the emergence of a third player in this oil fight.

The two superpowers used their respective influence to spread rumors and smear campaigns against the desert countries in their respective camps.

Claims that the Dragon Kingdom is an evil entity.

Once the power of the Dragon Kingdom enters the desert area, it will bring unimaginable consequences to the desert countries.

The short-sighted desert countries listened to one side of the story and gradually began to distance themselves from the Dragon Kingdom.

Fifteen years had passed since Dragon Kingdom established diplomatic relations with the last desert country.

No other desert country has ever established diplomatic relations with the Dragon Kingdom.

Even some countries that have established diplomatic relations with Longguo have begun to have a bad impression of Longguo.

Vice Minister Zhao nodded thoughtfully.

"We can learn from others' experience to polish our own jade. Just like in times of war, if we cannot take down the enemy's fortress head-on, we can take it down through outflanking or other means."

"I will report this matter to the minister immediately. Our Third Ministry of Machine Building is willing to support your First Ministry of Machine Building to make a bold business attempt."

"Hahaha! If the plan succeeds, the one who should thank us the most is not Lin Kaifeng, but the oil department."

Wang Changsheng laughed out loud.

"You old boy, you are as cunning as you were back then."

Deputy Minister Zhao couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

No wonder Wang Changsheng highly agreed with Lin Kaifeng's advance into the desert area.

It turns out he had ulterior motives.

All departments are trying to find ways to export and earn foreign exchange.

The oil sector is no exception.

With the discovery of the first oil field in Longguo, the oil industry entered a stage of rapid development.

As of now, the oil sector not only has the ability to exploit various types of oil fields.

We have also achieved outstanding results in equipment manufacturing and oil exploration.

The natural way to export and earn foreign exchange is to sell oil equipment and some technologies to countries in need.

Worldwide, the countries with the greatest demand for oil equipment are the desert countries.

We can really open up the desert market and export oil equipment and machinery to them.

It will not only bring new development funds to the oil industry.

It will also open up a new development situation.

Help several key enterprises under the First Ministry of Machine Building to go abroad.

Take business abroad.
