Chapter 706 (1/2)
Business models are not as natural as mathematical theorems.
Simon's idea of an open financial information platform has no very successful cases either now or in his memory. This does not mean that this idea lacks prospects. The key is whether the team of aliya company has enough executive power to turn this idea into a sustainable business model.
After planting a seed again and ending the meeting of aliya, Simon rushed to the assistant military affairs office in Greenwich.
The office of military affairs assistant is mainly responsible for the coordination and liaison among the three private military companies set up in North America, Australia and Eastern Europe under the Simon and westero systems. Celia Miller is in charge of the office.
There are many topics for discussion at this meeting.
The Ohio based military consulting and security services company (MCSS) recently received the first order from the U.S. government to go to Serbia to provide military training for local U.S. - supported armed groups. The contract lasts for one year, with a total value of $20 million, and requires 100 MCSs mercenaries to go there.
This order is not worth mentioning relative to the huge US defense budget, but it is a good start. It has the joint efforts of the Miller family headed by Celia milev, the personal contacts of the westero system and the White House.
Moreover, under the coordination of the president and his wife, MCSs has become the Private Cooperation Department of the CIA.
Since it was found that the effect of using various foundations and private organizations as tools to intervene in other countries is far better than that of the US government departments, many sensitive government departments in the United States have begun to attach themselves to more and more private enterprises.
Once upon a time, the prism project was undertaken by a private company, because even if it was exposed, the US government could shirk its responsibility to the greatest extent. The United States uses various foundations overseas to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. Even if everyone knows that it is the U.S. government behind the scenes, because it has the shell of a public welfare organization, it can still have a high sounding.
For MCSs, the biggest advantage of being affiliated with the CIA is that it can use state secrets to exempt many of the company's businesses from unnecessary monitoring and review.
The CIA can be said to be a temporary dormant territory of the Bush family. The elder Bush was the director of the CIA for eight years.
After the westero system put forward this idea to the White House, it has always been clear that since taking office, the Bush family has been unwilling to lose the election. Mr. President, who made trouble behind the scenes, quickly agreed and realized this affiliation. The next step is the traditional way for the White House to use the combination of power and interest to erode the influence of the Bush family .
The order MCSs received from the US government is also an attempt by the Clintons to extend their influence to the military.
As long as MCSs develops and grows, the westero system can continue to hire former military executives with high salaries as company executives or consultants, thus building a bridge between the White House and the military. Moreover, the strength of the westero system itself is strong enough, and there is no need to worry about being torn down by both sides in the future.
Even in the future, the westrow system will inevitably be the target of the new government.
Besides the first order of MCSs, it is the problem of Rwanda.
According to the original agreement between the vistro system and the United Nations, Simon needs to withdraw all Ukrainian mercenaries stationed in Rwanda in October.
In order to avoid extra political turmoil, and to let the African countries intending to expand see that the westero system does not have the ambition of long-term military intervention in other countries, Simon did not attempt to extend the original agreement.
However, after six months of operation layout, the westero system will not lose its influence in Rwanda after this withdrawal.
In recent months, when the Westeros team discovered considerable natural gas reserves under Lake Kivu in Rwanda, Simon arranged to set up lake Kivu energy company and Lake Kivu power company based on the 2000 acre vistro mercenary base on Lake Kivu in Rwanda.
Both companies are joint ventures with the government of Rwanda, each holding 50% of the shares. The company is operated by the westero system, including the funds needed for the start-up of the project. Of course, the two companies will certainly provide the Rwandese government with a lot of high paid jobs that are well paid and do not need to work.
Although the troops will be withdrawn, the private military companies of the westero system will still set up offices in Rwanda, and the arms trading companies of the westero system will continue to use Rwanda as an important transit. As a matter of course, a series of projects of Johnston family in African countries also strengthened their own security work.
Generally speaking, after the westero mercenaries are broken into parts, they will still maintain a force of about 1000 in Africa.
It seems that there are not many such forces. If they are assembled, they will be more than enough to overthrow the regimes of one or two small countries in Africa. Moreover, with the deepening of the westero system in Africa, the military strength of westero system will only become stronger and stronger.The afternoon meeting also discussed the layout of Ukraine.
This was not originally in Simon's original plan with Raymond Johnston. Ukraine's geographical location is very sensitive and it is not easy to operate.
But now is an opportunity.
Because in recent years, the West and the former Soviet Union are in the honeymoon period of cooperation, and they have not yet started confrontation again. Simon's early layout at this stage will not cause too much fear from the East and the West. Ukraine's collapsing economy and chaotic situation also give the vistro system plenty of opportunities.
As for the future, we can only improvise for the time being.
At the end of the afternoon, Simon hosted a series of important senior and military advisers of MCSs at the manor in the northern suburb of Greenwich. Celia Miller's husband and father-in-law came from Washington.
Late into the night, the guests and the hosts are happy.
The next day is September 30, Friday, the last day of September.
After getting up in the morning, Sophia called her to have breakfast next door and fly back to the west coast this afternoon.
After breakfast, Simon was on his way to Manhattan. In the morning, he made an appointment to meet Raymond Smith of Verizon Telecom. Ken Dixon received a phone call and had to change his schedule temporarily.
Lisa Lockhart, one of the Wai's maids who takes care of the grarf family, met a young man who claimed to work on Wall Street half a month ago when she was having dinner with a friend. The man is tall and handsome, with elegant and funny manners. She also has a job with rich salary. She is a perfect candidate for her boyfriend.
They fell in love at first sight and soon began to associate.
For the waiters of the Westeros family, there are not too many restrictions on their private life. The only requirement is to report. Of course, once you have a partner, you can only work outside the Westeros family in the future, and you can't come back to Simon and his wife.
Lisa Lockhart is a well behaved girl.
Moreover, before entering the job, Lisa had received quite strict training in the code of conduct for waitresses, and was told the benefits of various behaviors in detail.
In the contract signed by Lisa Lockhart, her freedom of private life is not too limited, and even, as long as her partner is OK, she can get help from the westero system in the future.
This is also true. As part of the ”westerosian” project, it is not a big pie deliberately painted.
