Chapter 354: Chapter 235: Is This Really a Coincidence?
“Five units?”
Lin Chuan’s expression changed, as the number had already exceeded his expectations.
Originally, Leo had revealed his interest in the “PHL-191 Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher.”
Last night, he and Xinxin had discussed it all night long.
Three units were their basic estimation of Haas Armed Forces’ needs and capabilities, offering a substantial discount with the chance of selling four.
Aiming to secure three and possibly sell four was the outcome of their discussion last night.
Never had he imagined that Leo would blurt out “five units”; just the transaction volume for the “PHL-191 Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher” alone had reached twenty-five million US Dollars.
At the current exchange rate of “1:7.2,” that was about 180 million yuan.
Adding other weapons, the total order this time could potentially exceed 400 million!
In Lin Chuan’s military weapons trading record, the number wasn’t huge, but it was definitely a roaring start for the real-world “Anling Toy Factory”!
As soon as Haas Armed Forces paid the deposit, the “Toy Factory” would have its operating funds.
The beginning is the hardest.
Knowing that with the initial operating funds, Lin Chuan was very confident in the subsequent management and development of “Anling Toy Factory.”
This book “Arms Tycoon” is his autobiography!
The azure sky bore a unique cloud that blocked the brilliant sunshine, casting a cool shadow over the Baoying Hotel nestled beside a mountain and by a river.
At this moment, Leo still stood in place.
When he caught Lin Chuan’s lifted gaze, realizing his own lapse, he laughed and said, “If we go by the price just mentioned, without tacking on any additional fees, we can order five units.”
“Of course, there’s no problem.”
Lin Chuan readily nodded, then changed the subject, “I have one more discount, would you like to hear about it?”
“Another discount?”
Leo was about to sip his orange juice, but upon hearing Lin Chuan’s words, he immediately set it down, his deep eyes finally widening in surprise.
Was this arms dealer crazy?
The staff beside him was completely dumbfounded. Following Leo around, he had dealt with over a dozen large and small arms dealers.
Those arms dealers couldn’t wait to drive up the price of military hardware.
He had never seen someone like Lin Chuan who aggressively cut the price of military weapons. The buyer had accepted the price, and yet he offered another discount?
What kind of game was this Mr. Lin playing?
“Of course, there’s another discount, Mr. Leo. I would very much like to become friends with you,” said Lin Chuan sincerely, continuing, “If you refer a friend to buy my weapons and equipment, 10% of their total purchase price, I’ll convert it into weapons and gift it to you.”
Upon hearing this, Leo immediately fell silent.
This model could often be seen in ordinary business transactions.
But in the arms trade, this was the first time Leo heard of it.
It requires substantial capital, as well as strong technological capabilities.
Because in ordinary business, it’s mostly swapping lower price for volume, even at a loss, to quickly capture the market.
The arms trade is different.
