Chapter 1176 The Pattern is Different
Different industries are like different worlds. Every industry has its own circles and rules, and outsiders cannot just barge in and have fun.
If someone who works a normal job wants to start a business, they will usually lose a lot of money first and spend money to buy experience; if someone who runs a clothing store and switches to a fruit store, they will also lose money first because these are two different businesses.
Without accumulated connections, high-quality supply channels, operating models, etc., you will die if you get in.
This is true for small businesses and even more so for large businesses.
Not everyone can do arms business, and not everyone can buy arms with money. The circle of this industry is small, but also large.
The composition of sellers is very complex, including countries, large military-industrial enterprises, arms associations, black markets, powerful people, small private groups, and so on.
The buyers are even more complicated, including countries, armed groups, terrorist forces, anti-government armed forces, killer organizations, resistance organizations, gangs...
How to buy, how to sell, how to successfully complete the transaction and get the money, even how to transport and deliver the goods, every link in between is not something that outsiders can understand.
You know that this circle is open, but when you look at it, it is an insurmountable mountain - someone needs to lead you!
The broker Curtis was specially assigned to Lu Xiaoqi.
He doesn't sell weapons, but he can bring the other party into this circle and meet many bigwigs in the arms business.
Because Lu Xiaoqi is not a fool, it is impossible for him to spend so much money to buy arms right away. He must first understand the situation clearly before purchasing.
He looks a little stupid, but he is actually very smart.
But in fact, it is still stupid, because this is not a circle he can play in. Even if he understands it clearly, it is just superficial.
The water in the arms circle is not deep, but bottomless.
Plateau continent, Gold Coast.
Watching the plan proceed step by step, Lei Zhen was very satisfied, with a happy smile on his face.
"Why make it so complicated?" The parrot folded his arms and said, "We can definitely take them down. We're going around in circles a bit too much. This isn't intelligence."
Fighting is one mode, and gathering intelligence is another.
Perhaps only Parrot can grasp the difference between the two at the same time, because she has been the assault team leader and the communications team leader.
"I'm afraid if I give them a blow, they'll all shrink back, so I have to slowly draw them all out."
"Not only must we slowly pressure them into buying weapons, but we must also hand them a few victories. Only then will the family faction gain confidence and decide to launch a large-scale operation."
Lei Zhen smiled, put his arm around the parrot's waist, and explained to her why he did this.
Seduce, induce, entice...
A direct arms deal simply won’t work because it’s too smooth.
Whether it is Old Man Jiang or Lu Xiaoqi, they are both old foxes. If cross-border transactions are too smooth, it will arouse their vigilance.
"These guys have conducted in-depth research on me and know that I control the world's largest arms organization, but they still have to buy weapons to deal with me in order to achieve symmetry."
"So I have to create difficulties for them. Only when they are always in trouble can it seem realistic."
Fire Dog deceived Lu Xiaoqi, which was a special arrangement. Curtis's contact with Lu Xiaoqi was also arranged, and there will be a series of arrangements to come.
All arrangements revolve around one thing: creating anxiety.
When people are trapped in anxiety, they often lose their judgment; when they are entangled in anxiety to the point of collapse, they will lose their judgment even more if the problem is suddenly solved.
This is a psychological warfare. Everything that makes Lu Xiaoqi unhappy is creating anxiety for him.
"You have a lot of children, but you are still so wicked." The parrot pouted.
"Nonsense! The more children you have, the more ruthless they are. They must be taught by example." Lei Zhen glared at him. "I don't want my children to be full of kindness. Even though they have their father to protect them, it's always good to have a little more scheming and trickery. I have to teach them how to harm others."
The parrot nodded in approval.
It's good to have more tricks in life. You may not need them in normal times, but you must know how to use them when you need them.
There is a saying that goes, "You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others."
At first glance, it seems to be fine, but it does not stand up to scrutiny at all: not harming people, just guarding against people, so what are the countermeasures?
Therefore, we must learn to harm others. This is a necessary countermeasure.
Unfortunately, most parents will never teach their children this truth because they themselves don’t understand the flaw in this sentence.
It is useless to ask the teacher for help when you are bullied. In the end, you will just be asked to apologize.
Therefore, self-defense is a topic that needs to be deeply explored. Under what circumstances can the most ruthless self-defense be carried out? What is highlighted here is the countermeasures.
"But this will take a long time, maybe a month, or even two months." The parrot thought for a moment and said, "During this time, I'm afraid Old Man Jiang has already completed the internal integration."
She has always had sources of intelligence regarding the secret world, so she is very clear about the current situation, including what Lei Zhen has done.
"So what if the integration is complete? Wife, their attitude is not important now. What matters is the power behind my husband."
"Old man Jiang only thought that I was temporarily avoiding the sharp edge, but he didn't know that I had given up starting from the bottom and chose to open a breakthrough directly from the top."
"The situation is different. What he is fighting for is worthless in my eyes."
Taking the upper route is definitely the best choice.
No matter whether you are building relationships or doing anything else, it is best to go from above if possible. It is both convenient and quick. Of course, you also have to establish a good mass base at the grassroots level.
At this point, Lei Zhen has already established himself.
The Qimen Sect will follow closely in his footsteps, the Zhu family is tied to him, the Han family has no way back, and there is also the Xiang family who has placed all their bets on him.
Of course, there is also Jinju's side. I believe the traditionalists are not stupid either.
Now that we have the foundation, of course we should move to the next level.
"There's no need to think too much about this right now. Whether the higher-ups react, Lu Xiaoqi buys weapons, or even finds the upper-level forces' lair, it will take time."
"During this time, let's study the foot basin chicken carefully——"
Lei Zhen operated the computer and opened the electronic map of Jiaoben Chicken.
There are many standard red dots on the map, and each red dot represents a family. These are the secret forces of the Foot Basin Chicken, and they also exist as family units.
"This is my next goal, to lay the foundation for the ultimate goal." Lei Zhen said with a smile.
His ultimate goal is the whole world, not just a self-contained East: Chicken in a Basin, Kimchi, Sambal, etc., all of these must be conquered step by step.
Domestically, it was just the starting point for his Lei Zhen.
All we're doing is exploring for experience, and now we can focus on strategies in other areas.
The chicken in the basin is the first stop of the invasion.
