Super military empire

Chapter 266: First pit the Americans for 25 million dollars

"I personally think we should give us tank samples..." Liu Yijiu said embarrassedly, but there was no original insistence at this moment.

Seeing Liu Yijiu's attitude loosened a lot, other people naturally knew that the iron should be struck while the iron was hot to talk about it, or else this kid would mess up again, regardless of the negotiation rules, they would be helpless.

"Liu, there is no need at all. As you have said, such heavy tanks are difficult to use on the complex terrain of your country, especially those electronic systems. It is difficult to study and imitate your country’s industrial base, and our cooperation is not. This time, if you feel it is necessary, we can fully carry out the single-project introduction cooperation of a certain aspect of the cooperation in the next step of cooperation. With money, you can do more projects..." Lieutenant General Thompson is also very considerate for the Chinese. .

No money, what high-tech play?

China has not even done the transformation of the 59th tank very well, and the electronics industry is in a mess. In this situation, all the technologies of the xm1 are given to them instead of the prototype. The Chinese may not be able to imitate it. come out.

The reason they are willing to provide the technology for the engine is only the materials needed to produce the engine. China cannot produce it. Then they want to produce it, from the most basic mining equipment to smelting equipment, and then refined processing. They have to buy the CNC machine tools and the heat treatment equipment behind them from the United States.

This can be regarded as they put a long line to catch a big fish.

"Xiao Liu, there is nothing to hesitate. We still have a lot of projects, and there is no money for the technological transformation and upgrading of the Jialing Factory..." Zheng Hao is now worried that the money will fly away.

How heartbroken does that make him?

Liu Yijiu's face has changed many times, and people on the Chinese negotiating team also feel that their best situation is to accept the money from the Americans, which is most beneficial to the current Ninth Court.15 million, and the price is still negotiable.

"In this case, we don't need tanks. However, these tanks must be converted into money. We don't want 30 million US dollars, 25 million, and a penny can't be less..." Liu Yijiu said embarrassedly. , The expression on his face told everyone that he still wanted a sample of the tank.

Other Chinese officials don't understand the technology. They don't know that studying some things in the xm1 tank can quickly improve certain aspects of their domestic technology.

The Americans know it, and Liu Yijiu knows it too.

In another environment, Liu Yijiu would definitely not agree.In other words, no matter how high the status of this young man is, and he has money in his hands, he will not agree. It will certainly not be so easy for Americans to use money to dispose of him.

Money is gone after spending.

Once the technology is researched out, they can produce as much as they want.The United States researched this kind of tank, and the production cost alone cost more than six million US dollars. Although it is said that the more the later production, the lower the cost, but under the current situation, the cost will definitely not be low.

The cost of research is naturally higher.

That is calculated in billions of dollars.

"No problem, otherwise, we discount each car at a price of 3.5 million US dollars?" As long as Liu Yijiu agrees, there is no problem.

"No, we have made a big concession. Either 25 million, or 15 million and two prototype cars..." Liu Yijiu didn't let up here.

Zheng Hao is so happy that he wants to jump up.

To pit the Americans, the money is too easy to come.

The country has no money. No matter how they cheat, they have to take risks. At the same time, the country cannot give them much money.Americans have money, just like that, it's $17.5 million.Looking at this trend, Liu Yijiu might even talk about 20 million yuan.

When the time comes, their Ninth Institutes can go sideways, not to mention the ten supporting factories that are about to close down, it is not a problem to come to another ten.

It is best to allocate all the factories across the country to the Ninth Institute. At that time, Zheng Haoke was even better than those ministers...

Ignoring the rippling smile on Zheng Hao’s face, the other people who listened silently were also shocked. They felt that Americans’ money was too easy to obtain. Of course, they also knew that the premise was that they had to hold their hands. What the Americans want...

"Twenty million! Liu, these funds are the largest amount we can pay..."

"Twenty-five million. If you think that our requirements are too high, or the payment of this money is too bad for you, then give them all to the tanks, or give two tanks extra Fifteen million. Every tank with a production cost of 6 million US dollars, we all make each one a discount of 5 million, which is one million US dollars less for each..." Liu Yijiu gritted his teeth and said.

Americans want to take advantage?

Don't think about it.

He thought of this temporarily. From the beginning, it was to solve the funding problem, so he could only think of a solution from the Americans. If the country needs foreign exchange, he will help the country in foreign exchange.The boss above sent people from various departments to observe the negotiations between him and the Americans. When he thought that these people unconsciously caused the country to lose a lot of benefits, he naturally hoped to reverse this situation.

How to reverse it?

Do you rely on him to negotiate with Americans?

This is impossible. The only way is to tell these real-power officials that it is useless to face and don't pay attention to etiquette and morality in the negotiation field.Other countries only care about benefits.

Otherwise, this would have to be the same as the feudal dynasties that were overthrown in the past, just for a nominal rule, some small neighboring countries surrendered to the central government, and then paid tribute to some messy things that were basically useless to national power. As a result, the country was big. The real money of the pen was rewarded...

National Image?

Without strong strength, this can't be established just by etiquette.

The Republic has gone through too many detours. When he came, he hoped to influence these real-power officials through himself. They have not become the most powerful people now. In the future, this is not necessarily the case.The attitude of an official determines the working attitude of his officials.

"This, we need to discuss..." Seeing Liu Yijiu's insistence, the Americans did not bargain with them again.

Liu Yijiu nodded, so the negotiation was suspended after a stalemate for several hours.

The Americans returned to their rooms. In order to ensure that they would not be overheard by the Chinese, a guard was arranged outside.

"Since these tanks can not be given to the Chinese, we cannot give them. Not to mention that they use our tanks to find the weaknesses above to develop targeted anti-tank missiles or other weapons and equipment. In case they are short of money, sell these tanks. For the Soviets, this consequence..." As soon as Wyan entered the room, he gritted his teeth and said to these bigwigs very seriously.

"The Chinese and the Soviet Union are in hostility..." Jim felt that this possibility was relatively small.

"Before this, didn't we even have not restored diplomatic relations with China? China wants to engage in economic construction and international trade, but they do not have any domestic foreign exchange reserves. Regarding the war compensation that Japan should have paid to them... "Mist thinks this idea of ​​Jim is wrong.

Between countries, there are only eternal interests, not eternal friendship.

Back then, the Soviet Union was their ally, and they cleaned up the Germans and Japanese together.

Now, the Soviet Union has become their enemy, and Germany and Japan have become allies of the United States. Of course, Germany is only half of the allies of the United States, and East Germany is still a younger brother to the Soviet Union.

"General, what do you think?" There is no use arguing about this, Mister threw the question to Thompson.

If he agrees with this, then there is no problem.

The xm1 tank incorporates the top military technology and technology of the United States. This kind of thing cannot be given to the Chinese, and even more so cannot be obtained by the Soviets.

Thompson fell into silence. The trade-off between the two was actually very obvious. Give money to convince Congress.Or, some of the advanced equipment required by the other party can be operated in this way.Give China some technologies that they need to spend a lot of investment to get results for them to research, so that they can easily make money back.

Just like the gas turbines and variable compression diesel engines they provide.

"According to their requirements, exchange 25 million with them!" While everyone was waiting anxiously, Thompson finally spoke."Twenty-five million dollars, they don't want to be hot in their hands..."

When the others heard this, they immediately laughed.

The Chinese want many things from the United States, and they have to be bought for them.

If China has a large number of these things in Liu Yijiu's hands, then they will not conduct such contact negotiations with the United States at all.

On the other side, Liu Yijiu was telling everyone why he did this.

Regarding the matter of giving up the tank when he asked for money, other people thought it should be. After all, money is the most suitable for them.Everyone knows the domestic situation.

"Xiao Liu, did I cooperate well this time?" Zheng Hao said to Liu Yijiu shamelessly.

At the beginning, he never thought that Liu Yijiu would do this. He was really interested in the money in the hands of the Americans.

Liu Yijiu smiled and nodded, "If it wasn't that I hadn't thought about asking for a tank in the first place, but for money, I would have to be cheated to death by you. This is also a mistake. This red face sings well. ."

Zheng Hao didn't take Liu Yijiu's sarcasm at all.

"I just know that you don't want tanks, so I showed that it is more appropriate for us to ask for money. Otherwise, the Americans would easily agree to give money instead of anything else?" Zheng Hao didn't know, he was already shameless.

And it's shameless in public, not in private, and it seems very easy and natural to say it in front of other bigwigs.

Liu Yijiu laughed when he heard this.
