Chapter 254 A Clash of Weaklings! (Second Update!)

Joint Operations Command Center of the Ministry of National Defense.

A group of people were discussing how to handle what had happened recently, and they got into a heated argument because of their different attitudes.

However, just as they were arguing fiercely, Israel launched a missile without any attempt to avoid it.

When the intelligence officers relayed the news to their leader, who then announced it at a meeting, the arguing group still couldn't believe it.

Or rather, they are unwilling to believe it.

In the deathly silence, the acting commander of the Revolutionary Guard stepped forward and roared angrily at the dissenters present:

"Tell me, what exactly do you want? What conditions do you want in order to send troops to Israel?"

His question vanished without a trace, like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

No one responded to him, because everyone knew what to do and what to say at that moment.

In order to maintain so-called political correctness and protect their own interests, everyone tacitly kept quiet, or rather, this improved the morale of the Revolutionary Guard in its external operations.

Amidst the noise, yet another person pushed open the conference room door.

However, this time it wasn't anyone else who came, but the secretary from the president's office.

This person's arrival means that the president is aware of these matters and now demands a clear and unequivocal stance.

Otherwise, he could easily be ousted from office by the people.

Looking at the presidential secretary, the defense minister nodded to him and then said in a deep voice, "We will launch a counterattack, but not now. We must look to the future, and we must also look to the people."

"Please tell the President, Mr. Secretary, that victory will forever belong to us!"

The secretary listened to these words with a frown, memorized them, turned around, and left as quickly as possible.

He had no interest in arguing with these people.

All he knew was that he had to finish the work quickly, or his wages would be docked.

The door closed again, and just when everyone thought the meeting was about to end, the Minister of Defense turned to the acting commander of the Revolutionary Guard and said:

"Your task is to assemble the team and shoot as many videos as possible in the next two hours."

"Especially videos of people chanting slogans, I don't care what you do, just make sure the video is good!"

"Once the video is filmed, quickly post it to those online media platforms."

"Let everyone know that we're not to be trifled with."

"Understand?"

The commander of the Revolutionary Guard was stunned after hearing this; he never expected that the man in front of him would come up with such an idea.

are you crazy?
do not know.

No one is truly insane; the one who is insane is oneself.

Taking a deep breath, the deputy commander of the Revolutionary Guard slowly closed his eyes and gently nodded his head:
"understand!"

…………

The distance between Israel and Iran is neither far nor close, falling right within the missile's attack range.

From Israel to Iran, the missile flight takes only about 10 minutes.

Just as the meeting room was being set up, several shooting stars appeared in the sky over Tehran. Upon seeing these shooting stars, the people of Tehran not only had no intention of making a wish, but instead regretted that their parents hadn't given them two more legs.

So much so that now they can't even outrun others when they try to escape.

Upon seeing the light, the Tehran defense personnel were full of confidence, calmly observing the points of light.

They are not afraid of these flashing lights because they have S-300 air defense missiles from Russia.

Israel's missiles are made by themselves, but the S-300s in Iran's possession are outdated products from Russia.

It's very expensive, but it's useful.

Soon, the radar locked onto the missile in the sky, and the commander of the defense forces swung his right hand down sharply. Those who received the order immediately pressed the launch button in front of them.

Trigger engaged.

In the darkness, the people of Tehran saw lights rising from all directions.

The people of Tehran were overjoyed to see these lights.

These are the defensive weapons they obtained from Russia. These missiles are utter trash compared to these defensive weapons.

So, instead of going to the air-raid shelter, they changed their strategy and stood still to watch how the anti-aircraft missiles would intercept them.

Under their gaze, the bright spots falling from the sky and rising from the ground seemed to be rushing towards each other.

Then, in full view of everyone, the missiles that should have collided passed each other, with the missile launched from the ground going higher into the sky, while the missile from Israel fell to the ground.

The area hit by the missile was neither a hospital nor a high-value area.

It's a very ordinary residential area.

Four explosions rang out in succession, and the people who had been injecting missiles finally realized what was happening.

The S-300 system failed to intercept the missiles, allowing them to crash into Iranian soil.

Once this was understood, some passionate citizens took to the streets after the explosion, engaging in rescue efforts while simultaneously questioning officials about why the missiles had not been intercepted.

When questioned, the officials were speechless. They then turned around and raised a flag representing revenge.

Looking at this flag, whether it was ordinary citizens, Iranian officials, or ordinary soldiers, everyone felt a pang of unease.

revenge!

A revenge that will never end!
The news of Iran raising its flag quickly spread throughout the world through various channels, and naturally, it reached Lin Yi's ears as well.

Upon learning this news, he naturally went to the internet to search for related information.

Seeing that it was a flag with a color completely different from what he remembered, he couldn't help but curl his lip and let out a sneer.

Toriyama's famous paintings of Super Saiyans each have a different color, and even then, there aren't as many colors as they do.

What a bunch of noobs.

He turned off the computer screen, stood in front of the mirror, straightened his clothes, and then walked out of the office to the factory gate to pick someone up.

Amir.

He waited for a while at the factory gate, and then Amir appeared.

This time, Amir seemed to be there to discuss work, along with five other people besides himself.

They look like a very strong negotiating team.

He led the people into the conference room, personally served them tea, and then sat down opposite Amir and the others, gesturing with his hand:

"Gentlemen, have you decided on the number of communication base stations you need to purchase, as well as the corresponding follow-up services?"

“It’s settled!” Amir nodded, then suddenly looked up, his lips moving swiftly, and proposed a new condition:
"We require that these communication base stations be equipped with anti-eavesdropping capabilities."

"If we cannot achieve this, we will cancel this purchase."

"Okay!" Lin Yi nodded calmly. Anti-eavesdropping is the most basic design requirement for communication base stations.

This point was clearly marked in the initial materials provided.

Since the other party doesn't believe me, I'll just verbally agree again.

Anyway, it won't cost me a penny less.

Of course, it's not completely immune to eavesdropping. Anyone with access to the communication base station can extract the relevant information.

However, these things are usually handed over to Party A by Party B, that is, the manufacturer of the communication base station, after the equipment is installed, operated and debugged.

If the client is an idiot, then it makes no difference whether this thing exists or not.

Lin Yi agreed too quickly, which embarrassed Amir, who had prepared a long speech. He sat there, opened his mouth, and finally only managed to utter a single word: "Okay."

Just as he was about to open his mouth, Lin Yi spoke first, before he could:

"Any other requirements? If so, please state them all at once."

"Once you've explained it clearly, I can give you all a quote."

Upon hearing this, the people opposite exchanged glances, then lowered their heads and began to discuss amongst themselves in hushed tones.

After a long, noisy discussion, Amir finally stepped forward to express his opinion:
"That's all. Your equipment meets our requirements, and you also agreed to our requirement for anti-eavesdropping features."

"Therefore, on behalf of Iran, I wish us a pleasant cooperation this time."

After Amir finished speaking, Lin Yi nodded in agreement, and then said:

"Since you have no conditions, then I will state my conditions."

"Given the new requirements you have put forward, we need to make certain adjustments in order to meet these new requirements."

“These adjustments all require costs.”

"Therefore, the price needs to be increased by 15% from the previous price."

"At the same time, a 5% increase in security costs is also needed."

"If everyone has no objections, we can sign the cooperation agreement now."

“Once the agreement is signed, you transfer the money, I arrange production, and everyone works together with a clear division of labor and objectives.”

"how?"

“Your request is unreasonable!” Amir shook his head, rejecting Lin Yi’s idea.

Just as he was about to continue his long-winded speech, Lin Yi beat him to it again:
"Ladies and gentlemen, your request just now was to prevent communication base stations from being eavesdropped on."

"Considering what has happened in your country recently, I can understand."

"But the question is, to what extent should we prevent eavesdropping?"

In the end, Lin Yi's tone became more forceful, almost a roar.

His angry shout immediately silenced the Iranians across from him who had been chattering loudly about the price increase.

Seeing that they had shut up, Lin Yi asked again:
"Gentlemen, tell me, to what extent should we prevent eavesdropping?"

"Is it that no one can eavesdrop? Or is it that only your official personnel are allowed to access this data?"

"look into my eyes!"

"answer me!"

"I know why you added this clause. It's simply because your Revolutionary Guard's commander-in-chief was attacked two days ago and died from his injuries."

According to foreign media speculation, his travel information was probably intercepted and he was then ambushed.

"But have you ever considered that there has never been any eavesdropping?"

"Or was it someone within your own ranks who betrayed the Commander-in-Chief?"

"If that's the case, then no matter what kind of base station or eavesdropping it is, it's useless."

"As a base station manufacturer, once the base station is built and operational, we will transfer the relevant management and operation rights to the client."

“You clients have the authority to go directly to the base station to extract content, and then tell me that we didn’t block the eavesdropping.”

"Then wouldn't I be taking the blame for nothing?"

"So what if I want a little more money?"

The barrage of questions left Amir and the five men beside him turning pale and then flushed.

Ultimately, no one objected.

The fact that these people were able to participate in the negotiations, join the team, and get involved in this matter speaks volumes about their abilities and shows that they are not mediocre.

They also knew whether Lin Yi's words were correct or not.

In the silence, Amir raised his head and said coldly:
“We Iranians would not betray our fellow Iranians, but for the sake of our first cooperation, I agree to your request.”

"Your equipment can be priced 20% higher than the previous quote."

"Now, please check the price after the increase as soon as possible and give us the unit price."

"Thank you!"

Amir's smooth response left Lin Yi dumbfounded.

He had expected Amir to have a huge fight with him, but to his surprise, the guy was able to just let it go.

He's a big shot!
I just don't know if it can grow into something.

Nodding, Lin Yi called Ji Shuangshuang over.

In front of them, Ji Shuangshuang quickly compiled the increased prices of the equipment and displayed them to Amir and the others.

After looking at the price, Amir and the others finally relaxed their tense expressions and nodded to Lin Yi:
“Mr. Lin, I have to admit that your products are very competitive in terms of price.”

"Next, we need to examine whether your product has a competitive advantage."

Upon hearing these words, Lin Yi knew that the cooperation was secure.

For the sake of money, he didn't continue to criticize Amir, but instead smiled and nodded.
“Mr. Amir, as you wish.”

Once the requirements are confirmed, the next step is to discuss the terms of the cooperation agreement.

At this point, neither side would back down, and their previous gentleness and humility vanished, replaced by extreme irritability.

"What do you mean I'm responsible for delivering the goods to the port? Go look up international law! Besides, you're under blockade by America. What if my people get detained if I deliver the goods to the port?"

"I've already paid you, why won't you deliver it to the port? Your conditions here state that you must deliver it to the port!"

"I'm talking about sending it to our port, Suzhou Port. Your goods are loaded onto the ship here and then can go wherever they want. I'm not talking about sending it to your Iranian ports. Can you understand human language?"

"I can understand Persian!"

"Can you understand English?"

"Aba Aba!"

"..."

After a heated argument, the two sides finally agreed on their respective obligations.

Lin Yi was responsible for delivering the goods to Suzhou Port. Once the customs clearance was completed, he had nothing to do with the goods anymore.

Amir is responsible for finding a suitable transportation company, and he will be solely responsible for any subsequent losses.

After the goods arrived in Iran, Lin Yi dispatched professionals to carry out the installation work.

During the installation process, Amir will need to send personnel to be responsible for related safety work.

Final contract price.

$ 8.4 billion.
