Chapter 496 Don't get me wrong, these are all business cooperation projects...
Diting Company in Java.
As soon as I heard that the negotiation team from New Zeland was coming.
Sebo felt that he had no way to make a decision, so he quickly asked the head office to send someone over.
After hearing about this, Liu Zhifan also felt that the management of Diting Company alone was not suitable to handle such matters, so he asked Carmen Lopez, the head of the business division, to make the decision.
The New Zeland negotiation team flew directly to Java Island and did not drag their feet, but came directly to our door.
In the reception room.
Amanda White, the head of the New Zeeland negotiation team, took a sip of coffee and put down her coffee cup: "We are very interested in your company's earthquake prediction service. If you are willing to cooperate in the island replacement service, we can consider selling some islands to your company."
Carmen Lopez asked with a smile : "That depends on your sincerity."
Amanda discussed it quietly with a few colleagues, and then she made her offer: "We have referred to the cooperation agreement between America and your company and plan to use the Union Islands in exchange for 50 years of earthquake prediction services."
"Uning Islands?" Carmen Lopez instantly knew where this inconspicuous small archipelago was through the auxiliary system of the biochip.
The archipelago is just south of the Gilbert Islands and consists of three islands and reefs.
"These three islands are too small to be worth 50 years of forecast service. " Carmen Lopez shook her head.
However, Amanda was prepared. She immediately listed the comparative data: "The areas of New Zealand and America are totally incomparable. They are definitely not equivalent. I think..."
Carmen Lopez didn't say anything about this. At least these New Zealanders were more realistic. Compared with the insane Kangaroo people, they were a breath of fresh air.
The two sides discussed for more than three hours.
Finally, New Zealand used the Union Islands to purchase 30 years of earthquake prediction services from the Diting Company.
In fact, New Zealand has never had much interest in this small archipelago. After all, this is a remote place with no mineral resources and no agricultural resources.
In addition, it is thousands of kilometers away from New Zealand and costs millions of dollars every year, so they have long wanted to throw away this burden.
The Sapiens Company also knows the situation of this small archipelago very well.
But for the Homo Sapiens Company, this deserted island is of no concern and can be developed as a tourist island.
Anyway, the company has a lot of employees, and airship transportation is quite convenient. Even if it is used as a tourist attraction to entertain the company's employees, it is a good choice.
It doesn’t matter whether it makes money or not, the main thing is that the Homo Sapiens company likes the tropical islands in the South Pacific.
Don't get me wrong, these are truly commercial investment projects, without even a hint of uncommercial elements mixed in.
These include the Gilbert Islands and Ellice Islands previously purchased from America , which are all commercial projects.
Although the business projects of Sapiens Company are very extensive, the undeniable fact is that these projects are indeed part of business projects.
As for the armed forces on the island, they are all security services. After all, this is also part of business. If Blackwater can provide mercenary services, why can't my company, Sapiens, provide this kind of commercial service?
In this world, many things ultimately come down to business.
Look at America, with its Blackwater company, tax contracting companies, the Federal Reserve, the military-industrial complex, and Wall Street financial groups.
The various businesses they run are also diverse and comprehensive.
Therefore, it is very normal for Sapiens to make these business investments and provide services.
Although Zhiren Company's business is quite big, we have to learn to get used to it.
Anyway, most people on earth are used to it now.
…
After receiving the news of the cooperation between New Zeland and Sapiens Company.
Other major forces, or their affiliated forces, also became active at this time.
Although selling the island in exchange for earthquake prediction services seems a bit of a loss, it is already the best option. It is better than setting up a large number of full-power geological survey stations.
Soon the second force to take the plunge appeared, but it was not Japan as everyone had guessed, but the European Union.
To be more specific, it is France.
The reason why it was the Gauls was very simple, because they had a large number of islands in major oceans around the world.
For example, the Carnac Islands and the Association Islands in the South Pacific are overseas territories that the Gallic Rooster has been holding on to.
February 2, Xinghe year 2.
It was still at the headquarters building of Di Ting Company on Java Island, and still in that familiar reception room.
The negotiating team representing the European Union was headed by the Gaul - Binx.
Carmen Lopez took a sip of coffee calmly: "This is the famous Javanese civet coffee. It tastes very good."
"..." Binx held the coffee, a little at a loss. Apparently he had heard of civet coffee, which is the famous cat poop coffee.
Carmen smiled and shook her head: "Don't worry, our company has improved the production process. We only use special bacteria for deep fermentation. We don't actually use civet cats for production."
Hearing this, Binx secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then took a sip of coffee: "Huff... the taste is indeed very unique."
After drinking coffee.
Both sides finally got to the point.
Although the two sides had previously been in a very tense situation over the issue of air access to Nimanya, and had once frantically blocked each other's civil aviation.
But for the safety of the masters' lives, Binx had to come in person to negotiate.
If the Gauls want to become the leader of the European Union, they will naturally have to pay a price. For example, this time in order to appease Western Rome and the members along the Mediterranean coast, the Gauls really bled a lot.
The entire South Pacific archipelago belonging to Gaul was directly packaged and given to the Homo sapiens company to develop island tourism projects.
In fact, this is also because the Gauls feel increasingly unable to continue maintaining their overseas territories around the world under the current fierce competition.
The Gauls chose to grit their teeth and persevere in their sphere of influence in Africa. After all, Africa is too close to the European Union, and it is a part that cannot be given up.
The remote South Pacific region is too far away from the European Union.
The reason for taking out the affiliated islands in the South Pacific is naturally so that the entire European Union can obtain earthquake prediction services.
You can't just buy earthquake prediction services for one region in France, right?
If this is really done, will the European Union still be able to be the leader of the martial arts world?
Of course Carmen accepted the Gauls' sincerity.
The two parties soon signed two cooperation agreements, one was a 30-year earthquake prediction service contract and the other was an island sale contract.
In addition, the two sides reached a preliminary agreement on the previous Nimanya air traffic control issue.
Aviation control in the area around Nimanya will be lifted, allowing civil aircraft of the Sapiens Company to freely enter and exit the Nimanya area.
With the cooperation between Europa Union and Sapiens Corporation.
The pressure soon came to the remaining forces such as Lucia.
Faced with such a situation, they were also very helpless, and finally chose to compromise and could only reluctantly sell part of the island to the Homo Sapiens Company.
