Codename Doctor, Moved to Hong Kong

Chapter 122 Eight Light Armored Divisions
"Mr. Garde, it is because we are old friends that I chose to discuss cooperation with you first. This is out of our deep friendship and my trust in you.

It's not that I don't have other options. Mr. Smith of Great Britain, Mr. Gard should know him.

Although their individual equipment and armored weapons may not be as good as yours in the United States in terms of performance, they are cheaper.

Moreover, in that area of ​​northern Myanmar, Great Britain's weapons are more than enough.

But I still chose you, this is my sincerity." Zhang Chaoyang said with a smile and a sincere tone.

Gard looked at Zhang Chaoyang, his eyes revealing a bit of helplessness.

He was well aware of Zhang Chaoyang's shrewdness and decisiveness, and also knew that this cooperation would mean huge benefits for both parties.

However, he also understood that the cooperation plan proposed by Zhang Chaoyang was not as simple as it seemed.

"Okay, Zhang, since you have a plan, please speak up.

How do you plan to cooperate?" Gard asked seriously.

“It is a well-known fact that northern Myanmar is rich in resources.

Controlling northern Myanmar is equivalent to controlling a huge resource library.

Moreover, the geographical location of northern Myanmar is very advantageous, backed by the two huge markets of China and India, and its potential value is immeasurable. "Zhang Chaoyang smiled and said calmly.

Garde didn't say anything and continued to look at Zhang Chaoyang, waiting for his next words.

Zhang Chaoyang paused and continued: "If we only build a steel plant in northern Myanmar, it will undoubtedly be a huge waste of the land resources.

We need to have a broader vision and a deeper layout.

For example, we can invest in building a Western medicine factory, take advantage of the raw materials and labor force in northern Myanmar, and imitate various Western medicines.

We don't need any patents or their authorization. We just need a prescription to start production.

We can sell these medicines at high prices to the two huge markets of China and India and make huge profits from them.

There are also other industrial and chemical products that can be invested in.

The industries in these two countries are backward, and their chemical industry is almost non-existent. Our industrial and chemical products can be sold at a good price.”

Zhang Chaoyang's words were extremely tempting.

Garde listened quietly to Zhang Chaoyang's story, frowning slightly.

He understood Zhang Chaoyang's ambitions and plans. Although the profits from pharmaceuticals were lucrative, there were also some risks involved in not paying patent fees and counterfeiting other people's drugs.

Gard mentally assesses the ratio between risk and reward.

“Zhang, your idea is very bold and creative.

But I have to remind you that although generic drugs can bring short-term profits, they may cause legal problems in the long run.

We need to find a more stable and sustainable way of cooperation." Gard said slowly.

“Mr. Garde, I completely understand your concerns.

But these are not problems. Let’s not talk about India for now. Chinese and Western laws are isolated from each other.

Our medicines are sold to China, who can hold us accountable for our legal responsibilities?

Moreover, just like I control northern Myanmar, there is no need for us to step in ourselves. The Western Pharmaceutical Factory is openly under the name of a small warlord.

Can the pharmaceutical companies in Europe and America still hold the small warlords accountable for their legal responsibilities? Or can they start a war to attack those small warlords? "Zhang Chaoyang smiled and explained calmly,

After listening to this, Garde fell into deep thought. He understood that although Zhang Chaoyang's plan was risky, it was also full of opportunities. If it could be successfully implemented, it would bring them huge benefits.

"Zhang, the prospect you mentioned is very good and attractive, but you haven't told me how we can cooperate," Garde asked.

“Haha, this is easy. You said at the beginning that you would invest in my armed forces in northern Myanmar.

Otherwise, the equipment of these four light armored divisions and these warships can be regarded as your investment in me?" Zhang Chaoyang laughed.

"Zhang, I treat you as a friend, but you can't treat me like a fat sheep to be slaughtered!

This is more than 100 million worth of weapons and equipment. I am very sincere in providing you with a loan!" Garde screamed, his face trembling with excitement.

"Garde, don't get excited, we can talk slowly!" Zhang Chaoyang quickly comforted him.

"Zhang, how can I not be excited? We are old friends, you can't kill me like this!" Gard said excitedly.

"Garde, my dear friend, how about this!
"Those warships are considered as my purchases. After all, I use them in other places. Are the equipment of the four divisions considered as your investment?" Zhang Chaoyang said with a smile.

"Zhang, you can't be too greedy. You spent the money of two divisions, and I gave you the equipment of four divisions. Isn't that enough?"

"Garde, you can't say that. Eighty million dollars to buy equipment for four divisions is equivalent to twenty million dollars for one division.

Believe it or not, I asked Smith to buy a light armored division for only 15 million.

If I go to the Russians, even 10 million will be enough." Zhang Chaoyang retorted unceremoniously.

Business talks are all about verbal sparring, asking for high prices and bargaining.

"Impossible, there is no such price in the arms market!" said Gard.

"There's none?

Back then, the Russians snatched a huge order of 96 divisions from the United States for a price of 10 million.

The performance of Russian weapons is not inferior to that of American weapons at all!
You know, the Russians' equipment is known for being solid and durable." Zhang Chaoyang said with a smile.

"Zhang, tell me what you really want!

There is no need to apply these negotiation tactics to our cooperation." Garde said to Zhang Chaoyang.

“Okay, Garde, give me the equipment for four more light armored divisions, also purchased on loan.

Is this okay?" Zhang Chaoyang put away his smile and said seriously.

"What do you need so many weapons and equipment for? Do you want to fight a war?"

"Yes, I want to fight!

It takes at least six divisions to defend the two regions of Kachin State and Shan State.

There is also a triangle area between Hongsavadi, Siam and the Elephant Kingdom, which also requires two divisions of troops to control.

Therefore, I want the equipment of eight divisions for our common interests. " Zhang Chaoyang said with a smile.

The reason he wanted so much equipment was really to control northern Myanmar and Siam. As for the country, there was no shortage of weapons and equipment.

With the support of the Russians.

The equipment he has is of no use at all and will only expose himself.

Instead of supporting weapons and equipment, it would be better to support anti-inflammatory drugs, which are what the country truly lacks.
